Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

Binding Term Sheet for Sale of Shares of Hapi Metaverse Inc.

 

On February 5, 2026, Alset Inc. (“Alset”) entered into a term sheet (the “Term Sheet”), with HWH International Inc., a Nevada company (the “Buyer”), a majority owned subsidiary of Alset. Pursuant to the Term Sheet, Alset agreed to sell to the Buyer 505,341,376 issued and outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 (the “Shares”), of Hapi Metaverse Inc. (“Hapi Metaverse”), representing 99.55% of Hapi Metaverse’s outstanding capital.

 

Under the terms of the Term Sheet, Alset agreed to sell the Shares through a stock purchase agreement for a purchase price of $19,910,603.00 in the form of a promissory note convertible into newly issued shares of the Buyer’s common stock (the “Stock Purchase Agreement,” and the “Convertible Note”). The Convertible Note bears a simple interest rate of 1% per annum. Under the terms of the Convertible Note, Alset may convert any outstanding principal and interest into shares of the Buyer’s common stock at $1.85 per share upon ten (10) days’ notice prior to maturity of the Convertible Note five (5) years from the date of the Term Sheet, and upon maturity of the Convertible Note any outstanding principal and accrued interest accrued thereunder will automatically be converted into shares of the Buyer’s common stock at the conversion rate.

 

The closing of the transaction contemplated by the Term Sheet will be subject to standard closing conditions, including the approval by the stockholders of the Buyer holding a majority of the Buyer’s common stock. Alset Inc. and certain affiliates of Alset Inc. own the majority of the Buyer’s common stock.

 

Alset and the Buyer are related parties. The Term Sheet was approved by Alset’s Board of Directors and Audit Committee. Chan Heng Fai and Chan Tung Moe, members of Alset’s Board of Directors, recused themselves from all deliberation and voting regarding the Term Sheet and the Sale of the Shares.

 

The foregoing is a summary only and does not purport to be complete. It is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Term Sheet, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and incorporated by reference herein.
