| Item 1.01. | Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement |
Business Combination Agreement
The following summary and description
of the Business Combination Agreement (the “Agreement) does not purport to be complete, describes the material provisions of the
Agreement (as defined below), and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Agreement filed as Exhibit 1.1 to
this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated by reference. Unless otherwise defined herein, the capitalized terms used in this Current
Report on Form 8-K are defined in the Agreement.
On May 7, 2023, Aura FAT Projects Acquisition
Corp, a Cayman Islands exempted company limited by shares, with company registration number 384483 (“AFAR”), entered
into a definitive Business Combination Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Allrites Holdings Pte Ltd., a Singapore private
company limited by shares, with company registration number 201703484C (“Allrites”), and Meta Gold Pte. Ltd., a Singapore
exempt private company limited by shares, with company registration number 202001973W, in its capacity as the representative for the shareholders
of Allrites. The transactions contemplated by the Agreement are hereinafter referred to as the “Business Combination.”
Allrites Share Recapitalization
Immediately prior to the closing of the
Business Combination (the “Closing”), but contingent upon the Closing, Allrites
will effect a capital restructuring whereby (i) each then outstanding (A) Allrites restricted ordinary share, (B) Allrites non-voting
share, (C) Allrites preference share, and (D) Allrites option, will become vested and exercisable and will convert into Allrites Ordinary
Shares, and (ii) any retained shares (including the shares received from the exercise of all Allrites options) will be converted into
Company Ordinary Shares, and (iii) each of the Allrites option holders will (a) exercise each of their options for Allrites Ordinary
Shares and (b) retain such Allrites Ordinary Shares received upon exercise of the Options, as well as the remaining Allrites Ordinary
Shares.
Business Combination
The Agreement provides that, among other
things and upon the terms and subject to the conditions thereof, at Closing, Allrites will become a wholly owned subsidiary of AFAR and
AFAR’s Class A Ordinary Shares are expected to be listed on the Nasdaq Global Market.
Exchange Consideration
As consideration for the Business Combination,
subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Agreement, and contingent upon the Closing, Allrites shareholders collectively shall
be entitled to receive from AFAR, in the aggregate, 9,200,000 AFAR Class A Ordinary Shares, valued at $10.00 per share, for an aggregate
value equal to ninety-two million and no/100s dollars ($92,000,000). Each Allrites shareholder shall be entitled to receive the amount
of AFAR Class A Ordinary Shares in accordance with the Agreement (the “Exchange”). Following the Exchange, the Allrites
shareholders will become shareholders of AFAR and Allrites will continue as a wholly owned subsidiary of AFAR. Each Allrites shareholder,
upon receiving the AFAR Class A Ordinary Shares, will cease to have any other rights in and to shares of Allrites.
As additional consideration for the Business
Combination, subject to certain conditions, if Allrites’ recurring revenue recognized solely from the sale of products and services
to its contracted subscription customer base in accordance with GAAP measured for each of the first two fiscal years following Closing
(each, an “Earnout Period”) exceeds the thresholds of $12,000,000 for the
first Earnout Period and $20,000,000 for the second Earnout Period, AFAR will issue to the Allrites shareholders: (i) in connection with
the first Earnout Period, if earned and payable, 800,000 AFAR Class A Ordinary Shares, valued at $10.00 per share, for an aggregate value
of $8,000,000; and (ii) in connection with the second Earnout Period, if earned and payable, 1,000,000 AFAR Class A Ordinary Shares,
valued at $10.00 per share, for an aggregate value of $10,000,000. If the recurring revenue for the first Earnout Period fails to meet
or exceed the Earnout Threshold but the recurring revenue for the second Earnout Period meets or exceeds the Earnout Threshold for the
second Earnout Period, AFAR shall issue to the Company Shareholders both the First Earnout and the Second Earnout.
Representations and Warranties; Covenants
Pursuant to the Agreement, the parties
made customary representations and warranties for transactions of this type as of the date of the Agreement. The representations and warranties
made by AFAR and Allrites will not survive the Closing. Many of the representations and warranties
are qualified by materiality including “material adverse effect” or Company Material Adverse Effect. “Company Material
Adverse Effect” as used in the Agreement means, with respect to Allrites and its subsidiaries, any event, state of facts,
development, circumstance, occurrence or effect that (i) has had or would reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate,
a material adverse effect on the business, assets and liabilities, results of operations or financial condition of Allrites and its subsidiaries,
taken as a whole or (ii) does or would in all likelihood be expected to, individually or in the aggregate, prevent or materially adversely
affect the ability of Allrites to consummate the Business Combination. Certain of the representations
are subject to specified exceptions and qualifications contained in the Agreement or in information provided pursuant to certain disclosure
schedules to the Agreement.
In addition, the parties agreed to be
bound by certain covenants that are customary for transactions of this type, including obligations of the parties to use reasonable best
efforts to operate their respective businesses in the ordinary course consistent with past practice, to refrain from taking certain specified
actions without the prior written consent of the applicable party, and not to engage in trading on material nonpublic information and
to maintain confidentiality, in each case, subject to certain exceptions and qualifications. AFAR has also covenanted to hold a meeting
of its shareholders for the purpose of approving the Business Combination and the Agreement. The covenants of the parties generally will
not survive the Closing, subject to certain exceptions, including certain covenants and agreements that by their terms are to be performed
in whole or in part after the Closing.
Conditions to Each Party’s Obligations
to Close
Pursuant to the Agreement, the obligations
of the parties to consummate the Business Combination are subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain customary closing conditions
of the respective parties, including, without limitation: (i) the representations and warranties of the respective parties being true
and correct subject to the materiality standards contained in the Agreement; (ii) material compliance by the parties of their respective
pre-closing covenants and agreements, subject to the standards contained in the Agreement; (iii) the approval by AFAR’s shareholders
of the Business Combination; (iv) no governmental authority shall have enacted any law or order which has the effect of prohibiting the
consummation of the Business Combination; (v) a Registration Statement on Form F-4 containing a prospectus and proxy statement (as amended
or supplemented, the “Prospectus and Proxy Statement”) shall have been declared effective by the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the “SEC”) and shall remain effective as of the Closing, and no stop order or similar order shall be in
effect with respect to the Prospectus and Proxy Statement; and (vi) the members of the post-Closing board of directors of the combined
company shall have been elected or appointed as of the Closing in accordance with the requirements set forth in the Agreement.
Termination and Break-Up Fee
The Agreement may be terminated under
certain customary and limited circumstances at any time prior to the Closing. If the Agreement is
terminated, all further obligations of the parties related to public announcements, confidentiality, fees and expenses, trust account
waiver, termination and general provisions under the Agreement will terminate and will be of no
further force and effect, and no party to the Agreement will have any further liability to any other party thereto except for liability
for certain fraud claims or for willful breach of the Agreement prior to the termination.
The Agreement may be terminated at any
time prior to the Closing by either AFAR or Allrites if the Closing has not occurred on or prior to July 12, 2023 (the “Business
Combination Deadline”) unless AFAR, at its election, receives shareholder approval for a charter amendment to extend the term
it has to consummate a business combination (“Extension Option”), for an additional six months for AFAR to consummate
a business combination pursuant to the charter amendment. A party is not entitled to terminate the Agreement if the failure of the Closing
to occur by such date was caused by or the result of a breach of the Agreement by such party.
The Agreement may also
be terminated under certain other customary and limited circumstances prior the Closing, including, among other reasons: (i) by mutual
written consent of AFAR and Allrites; (ii) by either AFAR or Allrites if a governmental authority of competent jurisdiction has issued
an order or taken any other action permanently restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the Business Combination, and such order
or other action has become final and non-appealable; (iii) by Allrites for AFAR’s material uncured breach of the Agreement, if the
breach would result in the failure of the related Closing condition; (iv) by AFAR for the material uncured breach of the Agreement by
Allrites, if the breach would result in the failure of the related Closing condition; (v) by AFAR if there has been a Company Material
Adverse Effect with respect to Allrites since the date of the Agreement, which is uncured and continuing; or (vi) by either AFAR or Allrites
if AFAR holds an extraordinary general meeting of its shareholders to approve the Agreement and the Business Combination and such approval
is not obtained.
In the event the Agreement
is terminated pursuant to Section 10.1 of the Agreement, the terminating party shall pay $5,000,000 to the non-terminating party, within
three business days, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account specified by the non-terminating party, as liquidated
damages.
Governing
Law and Arbitration
The Agreement and all claims related to
the Business Combination shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York.
The foregoing description of the Agreement
does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Agreement filed as Exhibit 1.1
to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated by reference. The Agreement has been filed to provide investors with information
regarding its terms and is not intended to provide any factual or other information about AFAR, Allrites or any other party
to the Agreement. In particular, the assertions embodied in the representations and warranties contained in the Agreement were
made as of the execution date of the Agreement only and are qualified by information in confidential disclosure schedules provided by
the parties in connection with the signing of the Agreement. Moreover, certain representations and warranties in the Agreement may have
been used for the purpose of allocating risk between the parties rather than establishing matters of fact and
may be subject to standards of materiality applicable to the contracting parties that differ from those applicable to investors and reports
and documents filed with the SEC. Accordingly, you should not rely on the representations and warranties in the Agreement as characterizations
of the actual statements of fact about the parties. In addition, the representations, warranties,
covenants and agreements and other terms of the Agreement may be subject to subsequent waiver or modification. Moreover, information
concerning the subject matter of the representations and warranties and other terms may change after the date of the Agreement, which
subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in AFAR’s public disclosures. Shareholders of AFAR and other interested

Cautionary Statement
Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This Current Report
on Form 8-K contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
Such statements include, but are not limited to, statements about future financial and operating results, our plans, objectives, expectations
and intentions with respect to future operations, products and services; and other statements identified by words such as “will
likely result,” “are expected to,” “will continue,” “is anticipated,” “estimated,”
“believe,” “intend,” “plan,” “projection,” “outlook” or words of similar meaning.
These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding Allrites’ industry and market sizes, future
opportunities for AFAR and Allrites, AFAR’s and the Allrites’ estimated future results and the Business Combination, including
the implied enterprise value, the Business Combination and ownership structure and the likelihood and ability of the parties to successfully
consummate the Business Combination. Such forward-looking statements are based upon the current beliefs and expectations of our management
and are inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are difficult
to predict and generally beyond our control. Actual results and the timing of events may differ materially from the results anticipated
in these forward-looking statements.
The Press Release contains
statements that constitute “forward-looking statements,” including with respect to the Business Combination, within the meaning
of the federal securities laws. Forward-looking statements may include, but are not limited to, statements with respect to Allrites’
products, the likelihood of regulatory approval of such products and their proposed uses; Allrites’ growth prospects and Allrites’
potential target markets, as well as the size of those markets; Allrites’ projected financial and operational performance; new product
and service offerings Allrites may introduce in the future; the potential Business Combination, including the implied enterprise value,
the expected post-closing ownership structure and the likelihood and ability of the parties to successfully consummate the Business Combination;
the anticipated effect of the announcement or pendency of the Business Combination on AFAR or Allrites’ business relationships,
performance, and business generally; and other statements regarding AFAR and Allrites’ expectations, hopes, beliefs, intentions
or strategies regarding the future.
In addition, any statements
that refer to projections, forecasts or other characterizations of future events or circumstances, including any underlying assumptions,
are forward-looking statements. The words “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,”
“estimate,” “expect,” “intends,” “outlook,” “may,” “might,” “plan,”
“possible,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “should,” “would,”
and similar expressions may identify forward-looking statements, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not
forward-looking. Forward-looking statements are predictions, projections and other statements about future events that are based on current
expectations and assumptions and, as a result, are subject to risks and uncertainties. You should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties
described in the “Risk Factors” section of the Prospectus and Proxy Statement, other documents filed by AFAR from time to
time with SEC, and any risk factors made available to you in connection with AFAR, Allrites and the Business Combination. These forward-looking
statements involve a number of risks and uncertainties (some of which are beyond the control of AFAR and Allrites), and other assumptions,
that may cause the actual results or performance to be materially different from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements.
No assurance can be given that the Business Combination discussed above will be completed on the terms described, or at all. Forward-looking
statements are subject to numerous conditions, many of which are beyond the control of AFAR. Copies of these documents are or will be
available on the SEC’s website, www.sec.gov. AFAR undertakes no obligation to update these statements for revisions or changes after
the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K, except as required by law.
In addition to factors
previously disclosed in AFAR reports filed with the SEC and those identified elsewhere in this Current Report on Form 8-K, the following
factors, among others, could cause actual results and the timing of events to differ materially from the anticipated results or other
expectations expressed in the forward-looking statements: (i) the risk that the Business Combination may not be completed in a timely
manner or at all, which may adversely affect the price of AFAR securities; (ii) the risk that the Business Combination may not be completed
by the Business Combination Deadline and the potential failure to obtain the Extension Option, if sought; (iii) the failure to satisfy
the conditions to the consummation of the Business Combination, including the adoption of the Agreement by the shareholders of AFAR, the
satisfaction of the minimum cash amount following redemptions by AFAR public shareholders, (iv) the receipt of certain governmental and
regulatory approvals; (v) the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstance that could give rise to the termination of the Agreement;
(vi) the potential effect of the announcement or pendency of the Business Combination on Allrites’ business relationships, performance
and business generally; (vii) risks that the Business Combination disrupts current plans and operations of Allrites; (viii) the outcome
of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against Allrites or AFAR related to the Agreement or the Business Combination; (ix) the
risk that AFAR will be unable to maintain the listing of AFAR’s securities on Nasdaq Capital Market; (x) the risk that the price
of AFAR’s securities, including following the Closing, may be volatile due to a variety of factors, including changes in the competitive
and regulated industries in which Allrites operates, variations in performance across competitors, changes in laws and regulations affecting
Allrites’ business and changes in the capital structure; (xi) the inability to implement business plans, forecasts, and other expectations
after the completion of the Business Combination and identify and realize additional opportunities; (xii) the risk of downturns and the
possibility of rapid change in the highly competitive industry in which Allrites operates, (xiii) the risk of changes in applicable law,
rules, regulations, regulatory guidance, or social conditions in the countries in which Allrites’ customers and suppliers operate
in that could adversely impact Allrites’ operations or the market generally for special purpose acquisition companies; (xiv) the
risk of supply chain and supply route challenges, including COVID-19, could result in delays or increased costs for Allrites and partners
deploying their technologies; (xv) the risk that Allrites may not achieve or sustain profitability; (xvi) the risk that Allrites will
need to raise additional capital to execute its business plan, which may not be available on acceptable terms or at all; (xvii) the risk
that Allrites experiences difficulties in managing its growth and expanding operations; (xviii) changes in overall economic conditions
that impact spending on Allrites’ products; and (xix) deterioration in conditions of the building construction industry or in broader
economic conditions.
Actual
results, performance or achievements may differ materially, and potentially adversely, from any projections and forward-looking statements
and the assumptions on which those forward-looking statements are based. There can be no assurance that the data contained herein is reflective
of future performance to any degree. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements as a predictor of future
performance as projected financial information and other information are based on estimates and assumptions that are inherently subject
to various significant risks, uncertainties and other factors, many of which are beyond our control. All information set forth herein
speaks only as of the date hereof in the case of information about AFAR and Allrites or the date of such information in the case of information
from persons other than AFAR or Allrites, and we disclaim any intention or obligation to update any forward-looking statements as a result
of developments occurring after the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K. Forecasts and
estimates regarding Allrites’ industry and end markets are based on sources we believe to be reliable, however there can be no assurance
these forecasts and estimates will prove accurate in whole or in part. Annualized, pro forma, projected, and estimated numbers are used
for illustrative purpose only, are not forecasts and may not reflect actual results.
