Arrangement Agreement

On August 17, 2026, Datavault AI Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), entered into an Arrangement Agreement (the “Arrangement Agreement”) with CyberCatch Holdings, Inc., a corporation existing under the laws of the Province of British Columbia (“CyberCatch”), and 1602628 B.C. Ltd., a corporation existing under the laws of the Province of British Columbia and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Purchaser”). Pursuant to the Arrangement Agreement, the Company, through the Purchaser, has agreed, among other things, to acquire all of the issued and outstanding common shares in the capital of CyberCatch (the “CyberCatch Shares”) by way of a plan of arrangement (the “Plan of Arrangement”) under the provisions of the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) (the “Arrangement”).

Consideration

Pursuant to the Arrangement Agreement, subject to the approval of the Arrangement by the Supreme Court of British Columbia (the “Court”), the Required Securityholder Approval (as defined below) and the other conditions to the consummation of the Arrangement set forth in the Arrangement Agreement, at the effective time of the Arrangement (the “Effective Time”): (i) each CyberCatch Share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will be acquired by the Purchaser for US$3.22 in cash; (ii) each outstanding option to purchase CyberCatch Shares (each, a “CyberCatch Option”), whether vested or unvested, will be cancelled in exchange for a cash payment equal to the amount, if any, by which US$3.22 exceeds the exercise price of such CyberCatch Option, less applicable withholdings; and (iii) each outstanding warrant to purchase CyberCatch Shares (each, a “CyberCatch Warrant”) will be cancelled, and holders of CyberCatch Warrants will receive no consideration in connection with the Arrangement. The consideration set forth in the immediately preceding sentence is subject to adjustment pursuant to the terms of the Arrangement Agreement to preserve the same economic effect in the event of any stock split, consolidation, stock dividend, reclassification, recapitalization, exchange of shares or similar event, or any dividend, return of capital or other distribution, and to account for any additional costs and expenses incurred by CyberCatch and its subsidiaries in connection with the Arrangement.

Bridge Loan

Pursuant to the Arrangement Agreement, within seven days following the execution thereof, the Company agreed to provide CyberCatch a secured bridge loan (the “Bridge Loan”) in the principal amount of US$500,000 to fund anticipated activities of CyberCatch between the date of the Arrangement Agreement and the Effective Time. The Bridge Loan will be secured against all of CyberCatch’s personal property, will bear interest at a rate of five percent (5%) per annum and will mature on the earliest of (i) the closing of the Arrangement, (ii) the occurrence of an event of default under the documents governing or securing the Bridge Loan or (iii) thirty (30) Business Days (as defined in the Arrangement Agreement) after the date of termination of the Arrangement Agreement in accordance with its terms.

Representations, Warranties and Covenants

Pursuant to the Arrangement Agreement, the Company, the Purchaser and CyberCatch made customary representations and warranties for transactions similar in nature to the Arrangement. All of the representations and warranties of the Company, the Purchaser and CyberCatch will expire and be terminated at the Effective Time. The Company, the Purchaser and CyberCatch also agreed to be bound by certain covenants that are customary for transactions of this type, including obligations of CyberCatch during the period from the date of the Arrangement Agreement until the earlier of the Effective Time and the termination of the Arrangement Agreement in accordance with its terms (the “Pre-Closing Period”) to conduct its business in the ordinary course consistent with past practice, refrain from taking certain specified actions without the prior written consent of the Company, in each case, subject to certain exceptions and qualifications, and comply with the non-solicitation obligations set forth therein. The covenants and agreements of the Company, the Purchaser and CyberCatch that by their terms are to be performed at or after the Effective Time shall, in each case, survive until fully performed.

Closing Conditions

The respective obligations of each party to consummate the Arrangement are subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain customary mutual closing conditions, including: (i) the issuance of the Interim Order and Final Order (each as defined in the Arrangement Agreement) by the Court with respect to the Arrangement; (ii) the receipt of the Required Securityholder Approval (as defined in the Arrangement Agreement); (iii) the absence of any law or order prohibiting, rendering illegal, ceasing to trade, restraining or permanently enjoining the consummation of the Arrangement; (iv) the TSX Venture Exchange having accepted notice of the Arrangement; and (v) the obtainment and continued effectiveness of the Key Regulatory Approvals (as defined in the Arrangement Agreement).

The obligation of CyberCatch to consummate the Arrangement is also subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain other closing conditions, including, among other things, that the Purchaser shall have complied with its obligation to deposit the aggregate consideration for the securities to be purchased in the Arrangement with the Depositary (as defined in the Arrangement Agreement) in accordance with the Arrangement Agreement and the Depositary having confirmed receipt of such amount.

Termination

The Arrangement Agreement may be terminated under certain customary and limited circumstances at any time prior to the Effective Time, including, without limitation:

If the Arrangement Agreement is terminated in circumstances giving rise to the Termination Fee, including a termination by the Company due to the occurrence of a Change in Recommendation or the willful or material breach by CyberCatch of its non-solicitation covenants under the Arrangement Agreement, a termination by CyberCatch for a Superior Proposal, or certain terminations for failure to obtain the Required Securityholder Approval or the occurrence of the Outside Date followed by a qualifying Acquisition Proposal (as defined in the Arrangement Agreement), CyberCatch must pay the Company a termination fee of US$4,016,250 (the “Termination Fee”). In addition, CyberCatch must reimburse the Company for its and its affiliates’ reasonable third-party expenses incurred in connection with their consideration of the Arrangement and the negotiation of the Arrangement Agreement, in an aggregate amount up to US$1,000,000, if the Arrangement Agreement is terminated for failure to obtain the Required Securityholder Approval or by the Company for uncured breach of a representation, warranty or covenant by CyberCatch.

The foregoing description of the Arrangement Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Arrangement Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 2.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference. The Arrangement Agreement provides investors with information regarding its terms and is not intended to provide any other factual information about the parties. In particular, the assertions embodied in the representations and warranties contained in the Arrangement Agreement were made as of the execution date of the Arrangement Agreement only and are qualified by information in confidential disclosure letter delivered by CyberCatch to the Company in connection with the signing of the Arrangement Agreement. This disclosure letter contains information that modifies, qualifies and/or creates exceptions to the representations and warranties set forth in the Arrangement Agreement. Moreover, certain representations and warranties in the Arrangement Agreement may have been used for the purpose of allocating risk between the parties rather than establishing matters of fact. Accordingly, you should not rely on the representations and warranties in the Arrangement Agreement as characterizations of the actual statements of fact about the parties.

Voting and Support Agreements

In connection with entry into the Arrangement Agreement, the Company, the Purchaser and each of the Supporting Shareholders (as defined in the Arrangement Agreement) entered into voting and support agreements (each, a “Voting and Support Agreement”). The Supporting Shareholders include certain of CyberCatch’s directors and officers who hold CyberCatch Shares, CyberCatch Warrants or CyberCatch Options holding, in the aggregate, approximately 20% of the outstanding CyberCatch Shares. Pursuant to the Voting and Support Agreements, each Supporting Shareholder has agreed, among other things, to vote, or cause to be voted, all securities held by such Supporting Shareholder in favor of the Arrangement. Each Voting and Support Agreement may be terminated upon the termination of the Arrangement Agreement, except if the Arrangement Agreement is terminated by CyberCatch in order to accept a Superior Proposal.

The foregoing description of the Voting and Support Agreements does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Voting and Support Agreements, the form of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
