Item 1.01

Entry Into A Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On December 1, 2023 (the “Effective Date”), DarkPulse, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company” or the “Buyer”), entered into the Sale Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Optilan (UK) Limited (in liquidation) incorporated and registered in England and Wales with company number 02715788 (“Optilan” or the “Seller”), and Colin Hardman, Christopher Allen and Gregory Andrew Palfrey, as joint liquidators of the Seller all of Evelyn Partners LLP (the “Joint Liquidators”). Under the Agreement, the Buyer agreed to purchase from the Seller for $65,000 (the “Purchase Price”) all right, title, and interest in the following: (1) shares in Otilan India PVT (India), (2) shares in Optilan Communications & Security Systems Ltd (Turkey), and (3) the “Applicable Intellectual Property Rights,” as defined in the Agreement. The following are excluded from the purchase: (1) any Excluded Intellectual Property Rights, as defined in the Agreement; (2) any cash in hand or at the bank; (3) any real property owned, leased or used by the Seller; (4) all policies of insurance and assurance and any actual or potential claim under such policies or similar contracts or in damages against any third party; (5) the benefit of any actual or potential claim, or right to make a claim, against any person including the proceeds of any litigation; (6) any other shares or other securities owned by the Seller; (7) any stock-in-trade, work-in-progress or raw materials owned by the Seller; and (8) any plant and machinery, including but not limited to any motor vehicles owned or used by the Seller.

 

After signing the Agreement, the Company and the parties to the Agreement discovered ambiguity in certain language within the Agreement most notably related to (3) “Applicable Intellectual Property Rights” and (1) “Excluded Intellectual Property Rights.” The Company has made a partial payment of $30,000 toward the Purchase Price and is conducting additional due diligence. Once the remaining due diligence is completed, the Company will make the final payment $35,000 and close the acquisitions.
