ITEM 1.01 ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE
AGREEMENT.
Agreement and Plan of Merger
On December 7, 2022, Mega
Matrix Corp., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) and MarsProtocol Inc., an exempted company incorporated under
the laws of the Cayman Islands and a wholly owned subsidiary of MTMT (“MTMT Cayman”). entered into a definitive agreement
and plan of merger (the “Merger Agreement”) related to a proposed merger transaction. The Merger Agreement provides
that, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, the Company will merge with and into MTMT Cayman (the “Redomicile
Merger”), with MTMT Cayman being the surviving company in the Redomicile Merger. Following the Redomicile Merger, MTMT Cayman,
together with its subsidiaries, will own and continue to conduct the Company’s business in substantially the same manner as is currently
being conducted by the Company and its subsidiaries.
Subject to the terms and
conditions of the Merger Agreement, upon completion of the Redomicile Merger, each share of common stock of the Company issued and outstanding
immediately prior to the effective time of the Redomicile Merger (the “Effective Time”) will be converted into the
right to receive one ordinary share of MTMT Cayman.
At the Effective Time, the
obligations of the Company under or with respect to every plan, trust, program and benefit then in effect or administered by the Company
for the benefit of the directors, officers and employees of the Company or any of its subsidiaries will become the obligations of MTMT
Cayman and will be implemented and administered in the same manner and without interruption until the same are amended or otherwise altered
or terminated.
Additionally, at the Effective
Time, MTMT Cayman will adopt and assume the obligations of the Company under or with respect to certain contracts or agreements as described
in the Merger Agreement. The contracts and agreements will become the obligations of MTMT Cayman and will be performed in the same manner
and without interruption until the same are amended or otherwise lawfully altered or terminated.
The Merger Agreement contains
customary closing conditions, including, among others, approval of the Redomicile Merger by the Company’s stockholders, the effectiveness
of the registration statement on Form F-4 filed by MTMT Cayman related to the Redomicile Merger and receipt of required regulatory approvals.
The consent of the holders
of a majority of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock entitled to vote is required to approve and adopt the Merger
Agreement. The Board of Directors of the Company believes that the Redomicile Merger, to be effected by the Merger Agreement, is advisable
and in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders.
Pursuant to the Merger Agreement,
the Board of Directors of the Company may exercise its discretion to terminate the Merger Agreement, and therefore abandon the Redomicile
Merger, at any time prior to the Effective Time, including after the adoption of the Merger Agreement by the Company’s stockholders.
Immediately prior to the
Effective Time, the directors and officers of the Company at such time will be elected or appointed as the directors and officers of MTMT
Cayman (to the extent the directors and officers of MTMT Cayman and the Company are not already identical), each such person to have the
same office(s) with MTMT Cayman (and the same class designations and committee memberships in the case of directors) as he or she held
with the Company, with the directors to serve until the earlier of the next meeting of MTMT Cayman stockholders at which an election of
directors is required for the class to which they have been elected or until their successors are elected or appointed (or their earlier
death, disability or retirement).
The Merger Agreement has
been approved by the Boards of Directors of each of the Company and MTMT Cayman. The Completion of the Redomicile Merger is subject to
the required approval of the Company’s stockholders, requisite regulatory approvals, the effectiveness of the registration statement
on Form F-4 filed by MTMT Cayman related to the Redomicile Merger, and other customary closing conditions.
The foregoing summary of
the Merger Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Merger
Agreement, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 2.1, and is incorporated herein by reference.
Additional information about the Redomicile
Merger and where to find it
In connection with the proposed
Redomicile Merger, the Company will cause MTMT Cayman to file with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”)
a registration statement on Form F-4 to register the ordinary shares of MTMT Cayman to be issued to the stockholders of the Company. The
registration statement will include a proxy statement/prospectus of the Company which will be sent to the stockholders of the Company
seeking their approval of the Redomicile Merger and related matters in addition to other matters. In addition, the Company may file other
relevant documents concerning the proposed Redomicile Merger with the SEC.
This communication does not
constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities or a solicitation of any vote or approval. Stockholders
of the Company are urged to read the registration statement on Form F-4 and the proxy statement/prospectus included within the registration
statement and any other relevant documents to be filed with the SEC in connection with the proposed Redomicile Merger because they will
contain important information about the Company, MTMT Cayman and the proposed transaction.
