Entry into Restated Sale and Purchase and Investment Agreement

On January 10, 2025, Brera Holdings PLC, a public limited company incorporated in the Republic of Ireland (the “Company”), entered into a restated sale and purchase and investment agreement (the “Restated Agreement”) with XX Settembre Holding S.r.l., an Italian limited liability company (“XX Settembre”), relating to the acquisition of the Italian Serie B football club named Juve Stabia (the “Club”), by the Company, through the Club’s owner and manager, S.S. Juve Stabia S.r.l., an Italian limited liability company (“Juve Stabia”), whose majority shareholder is XX Settembre. The Restated Agreement amended the sale and purchase and investment agreement between the Company and XX Settembre, dated December 31, 2024, which was previously disclosed in a report on Form 6-K filed on January 7, 2025.

Pursuant to the Restated Agreement, the Company will acquire from XX Settembre over four closings, on December 31, 2024 (the “First Closing”), January 10, 2025 (the “Second Closing”), January 31, 2025 (the “Third Closing”) and March 31, 2025 (the “Final Closing”), a total of 51.73% of the issued and outstanding share capital of Juve Stabia after such acquisition (the “Share Capital”). The Company will own 21.74%, 34.61%, 38.46%, and 51.73% of Juve Stabia’s share capital as a result of the First Closing, the Second Closing, the Third Closing, and the Final Closing, respectively.

As consideration for the Share Capital, the Company will pay XX Settembre an aggregate purchase price of €3,000,000 using a combination of cash and the issuance of the Company’s Class B Ordinary Shares, $0.005 nominal value per share (“Class B Ordinary Shares”), which will be calculated using the exchange rate of $1.04 per €1.00. At the First Closing, the Company issued XX Settembre €1,000,000 in Class B Ordinary Shares at a price per share of $0.65. At the Second Closing, the Company issued XX Settembre €500,000 in Class B Ordinary Shares at a price per share of $0.65. At the Third Closing, the Company will pay XX Settembre €500,000 in cash. At the Final Closing, the Company will pay XX Settembre €500,000 in cash and issue €500,000 in Class B Ordinary Shares at a price per share equal to the volume-weighted average price (“VWAP”) of the Class B Ordinary Shares, calculated over the 15 trading days immediately preceding the second business day preceding the Final Closing.

In addition, the Company will increase the share capital of Juve Stabia by an aggregate amount of €4,500,000. At the First Closing, the Company paid Juve Stabia €500,000 in cash and issued €1,000,000 in Class B Ordinary Shares at a price per share of $0.65. At the Second Closing, the Company paid Juve Stabia €500,000 in cash and issued €1,000,000 in Class B Ordinary Shares at a price per share of $0.65. At the Final Closing, the Company will pay Juve Stabia €1,500,000 in cash.

Furthermore, the Restated Agreement provides for bonus payments of (i) €500,000 in Class B Ordinary Shares payable to XX Settembre if the Club accesses the promotion playoffs to Serie A in the 2024-25 season and (ii) €5,000,000 in Class B Ordinary Shares payable to XX Settembre if the Club is promoted to Serie A at the conclusion of the 2024-25 season.

The Restated Agreement contains customary covenants including those as to due diligence, confidentiality, and representations and warranties of the Company and XX Settembre.

The Restated Agreement is filed as Exhibit 1.1 to this report on Form 6-K, and this description of the Restated Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to such exhibit.

Entry into Cancellation and Exchange Agreement

In addition, on December 31, 2024, Daniel J. McClory, the Company’s Executive Chairman, entered into a cancellation and exchange agreement (the “Cancellation Agreement”), pursuant to which he cancelled a total of $255,000 of indebtedness that is owed to him by the Company in exchange for 408,000 Class A Ordinary Shares.

Nasdaq Listing Compliance

Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) requires issuers listed on The Nasdaq Capital Market to maintain a minimum closing bid price of $1.00 per share (the “Bid Price Rule”). On July 16, 2024, the Company was notified that it failed to evidence a closing bid price of at least $1.00 per share for the preceding 30 consecutive business days and, in accordance with the Nasdaq Listing Rules, was granted an initial 180-calendar day period to regain compliance with the Bid Price Rule. The Company was also notified that, in accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A)(i), the Company could seek a second 180-day period within which to evidence compliance with the Bid Price Rule if, upon the expiration of the initial compliance period on January 13, 2025, the Company satisfies certain listing criteria, including the $5,000,000 stockholders’ equity requirement for initial listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market.

On January 2, 2025, the Company filed its Interim Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Position for the six-month period ended June 30, 2024 (the “Interim Results”), with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The Interim Results reported stockholders’ equity of €643,974 (approximately $674,815) as of June 30, 2024; since that date, however, the Company has completed the following transactions, which served to increase stockholders’ equity:

●

In the First Closing and the Second Closing as described above, the Company paid to XX Settembre an aggregate of €1,500,000 in Class B Ordinary Shares at a price of $0.65 per share in consideration for the acquisition of 14.35% of Juve Stabia;

●

Additionally, in the First Closing and the Second Closing as described above, the Company paid to Juve Stabia an aggregate of €1,000,000 in cash and issued to Juve Stabia an aggregate of €2,000,000 in Class B Ordinary Shares at a price per share of $0.65 in consideration for the acquisition of 20.27% of Juve Stabia;

●

In accordance with the Cancellation Agreement discussed above, $255,000 of indebtedness owed to Mr. McClory by the Company was cancelled in exchange for 408,000 Class A Ordinary Shares in the Company; and

●

As previously disclosed, on December 23, 2024 and December 27, 2024, the Company raised approximately $2,725,000 in a private placement of 545,000 shares of the Company’s Series A Preferred Shares.

As a result of the above transactions, the Company believes it has stockholders’ equity of at least $5,000,000 as of the date of this filing and otherwise satisfies all other requirements necessary to obtain a second 180-calendar day compliance period to regain compliance with the Bid Price Rule. The Company has formally requested the additional grace period from Nasdaq and will update investors if and when Nasdaq confirms that the second grace period has been granted.

11.1.2

The Seller accepts and acknowledges that the Purchaser is entering into this Agreement in reliance upon the truthfulness and correctness of the Representations and Warranties of the Seller.

11.1.3

The Purchaser acknowledges and accepts that any facts giving rise to inaccuracies or incompleteness in the Representations and Warranties of the Seller described in the Disclosure Letter for a total economic value of up to EUR 500,000 will not constitute a breach of this Agreement and will not give rise to any right of Indemnification or any other form of compensation in favor of Purchaser. It remains understood that in case the Disclosure Letter contains the description of facts giving rise to inaccuracies or incompleteness in the Representations and Warranties of the Seller described in for a total economic value in excess of EUR 500,000, these will constitute a breach of this Agreement (and will be indemnified in accordance thereto) for the portion in excess of such threshold

11.1.4

The Seller shall promptly notify to the Purchaser of any facts or circumstances occurring or of which the Seller is or becomes aware after each Closing Date which shall give rise to its liability under Article 12.

11.1.5

The Parties agree and acknowledge that the Representations and Warranties contained in this Agreement:

(a)

relate to a subject matter different from, and other than, the subject matter of the purchase and sale of the Quota and the investment through the First Share Capital Increase, the Second Share Capital Increase and the Final Share Capital Increase given that they regard the assets, liabilities, legal relationships and risks of, or relating to, the Company;

(b)

do not amount to, and cannot be regarded as, warranties about specific qualities or other features of the Quota, nor do they aim to extend the scope of the warranties provided by Law with respect to the Quota, given that they serve the different purpose of allocating to the Seller, even after the First Closing Date and for the duration and within the limits set forth in Section 12.4, the risks, responsibility and obligations resulting from, or pertaining to, the assets, liabilities, legal relationships and risks of, or relating to, the Company as well as all other risks and circumstances contemplated by such Representations and Warranties of the Seller. Accordingly, the Representations and Warranties of the Seller shall in no case be intended as warranties on the “qualities” of the Quota or warranties to “lack of defects” pursuant to articles 1495 and 1497 of the Italian Civil Code, and shall be treated as autonomous guarantee obligations (impegni autonomi di garanzia).

11.1.6

Without prejudice to the exclusions and limitations set forth in Annex 11.1 (and in the annexes thereto), the Seller and the Purchaser agree and covenant that all the information contained in the Annex 11.1 as well as in any additional document or information given to the Purchaser and/or its advisers in the course of any due diligence or in the process of negotiating, defining or executing this Agreement, shall not qualify as acceptance by the Purchaser of the risks indicated therein, if any, and shall not exclude, limit or reduce, in any way, the liabilities and obligations of the Seller, nor the rights and remedies of the Purchaser under this Agreement.

11.1.7

The Parties agree and covenant that the First Closing as well as the approval of any financial statements of the Company by the directors appointed by the Purchaser and or by the general meeting of the Company shall not exclude, limit or reduce, in any way, the liabilities and obligations of the Seller, nor the rights and remedies of the Purchaser under this Agreement.

11.1.8

The Parties acknowledge and agree that no consideration is owed by either Party to the other under the obligations assumed by virtue of the Representations and Warranties. The Parties acknowledge in any event that they have, also in the context of the Transaction, a mutual interest in the assumption of the obligations arising from the Representations and Warranties, which entails benefits for both Parties in terms of the regulation of the Transaction.

12.	Indemnification by the Seller

12.1	General indemnity obligations of the Seller

12.1.1

As a direct and autonomous obligation not subject to the scope, limitations and restrictions set out under articles 1490 et seq. of the Italian Civil Code, the Seller shall indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser (or, at the Purchaser’s request, in its discretion, the Company, including, for the avoidance of doubt, any successor thereto) (“Indemnification Amount”), from and against

(a)

the Relevant Percentage of any Loss incurred or suffered by the Company and/or,

(b)

the entire amount of any Loss incurred or suffered by the Purchaser within the limit set forth in Paragraph 12.3.2 , that would have not been so incurred and/or suffered had all the Representations and Warranties of the Seller been true and correct, without prejudice to the exclusions and limitations set forth in Paragraph 11.1.3.

Notwithstanding the above, resolutions of the shareholders’ meeting relating to the following matters shall be validly approved exclusively with the presence and favourable vote of the Purchaser (the “Qualified Shareholders’ Matters”):

(a) any material changes of the AoA materially affecting the rights granted to the Purchaser as minority shareholder;

12. General rule	The minority shareholder shall have the rights under items 6, 9, 10 and 11 above to the extent it owns a participation representing at least 15% of the share capital of the Company, on a fully diluted basis.
Limitations to transfers

16. Pre-emption right	Upon expiry of the Lock-up Period and without prejudice to the drag-along right and tag-along right, if the minority shareholder wishes to transfer all or part of his quota to a third party, he must first offer it for sale to the majority shareholder. The transfer of all or part of the quota is subject to the majority shareholder’s right of pre-emption.
17. Tag-along	Upon expiry of the Lock-up Period and without prejudice to the pre-emption right, if one or more shareholders enter into an agreement with a third party for the transfer of a quota representing at least 50% of the share capital of the Company, the other shareholders shall have the right to transfer their quota to the third party purchaser in proportion to the quota being transferred by the transferring shareholders, at the same price and on the same terms as offered to them by the third party.

18. Drag-along	Upon expiry of the Lock-up Period, if the majority shareholder reaches an agreement with a third party for the transfer of a quota representing in aggregate at least 50% of the share capital of the Company, the majority shareholder shall have the right to require the other shareholders to transfer to the third party the entire quota held by each of them at the same price and under the same conditions, provided that the equity value offered by the third parties is at least EUR 35,000,000 for the entire share capital of the Company.
