Material Agreement (Form 8-K)
Item 1.01. Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On April 20, 2026, we entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the "Elite Chiro Group Purchase Agreement") with Elite Chiro Group, a California corporation ("Elite Chiro Group"), as buyer, and Gadi Emein, an individual ("Emein"), as guarantor, pursuant to which we will sell to Elite Chiro Group the assets of, and grant franchise rights to, 45 company-owned or managed clinics located in Southern California (the "Elite Chiro Group Transaction") for an aggregate purchase price of $2.3 million, subject to certain adjustments (the "Purchase Price"). The Purchase Price includes prorated franchise fees pursuant to 45 separate franchise agreements to be entered into between us and Elite Chiro Group and the non-exclusive development rights for 10 clinics to be developed in the metropolitan statistical areas of a development area to be agreed upon by us and Elite Chiro Group in accordance with the schedule set forth in the Elite Chiro Group Purchase Agreement. Pursuant to the Elite Chiro Group Purchase Agreement, Elite Chiro Group will pay $150,000 of the Purchase Price as a non-refundable down payment in consideration for exclusivity to purchase the clinics and the remaining balance of the Purchase Price will be paid into an escrow account, which will be allocated among the clinics and the respective portion paid to us upon the closing of each such clinic.
The closing of each clinic as part of the Elite Chiro Group Transaction is expressly conditioned upon the assignment of the existing lease for such clinic. The Elite Chiro Group Transaction is also subject to customary closing conditions. The Elite Chiro Group Purchase Agreement contains other provisions, covenants, representations, and warranties that are typical in transactions of this size, type, and complexity.
