1. Legal Proceedings
A
civil action was filed against Old AGI, Inc. in the Circuit Court of Cook County, State of Illinois in February 2022. The claimant alleged
that an agreement for certain services entered into in March 2020 was breached and resulted in damages to claimant. This case was dismissed
on July 5, 2022. However, the court allowed the claimant to amend its complaint. On August 5, 2022, the claimant filed its amended complaint,
and we filed our response on October 12, 2022. The parties have engaged in discovery and mandatory arbitration. The arbitration resulted
in an award in our favor, which was contested by the claimant. On December 19, 2024, the Circuit Court denied our motion for summary
judgment. This matter was set for trial in June of 2025, but was voluntarily dismissed without prejudice on June 4, 2025.
Civil
actions were filed against CDI and individual guarantors in the Tioga County Court, State of Pennsylvania, in July 2023. The claimant,
First Citizens Community Bank (“FCCB”), alleged that payment under certain promissory notes is due, and the claimant is seeking
recovery of the outstanding amounts. The claimant obtained judgments against all named defendants. On March 27, 2025, we entered into
a settlement agreement with FCCB providing for a full and unconditional release of all claims related to the underlying debt upon completion
of payments totaling approximately $0.2 million. As of April 30, 2025, we have fulfilled our payment obligations under the agreement,
and the parties have fully and unconditionally released each other from and all claims/liabilities, or obligations related to the underlying
debt.
A
civil action was filed against us, Old AGI, Inc., AIRO Group (Illinois), AIRO Drone, Agile Defense, Joseph Burns, Chirinjeev Kathuria
and John Uczekaj in Chancery Court in Delaware in September 2023. The claimant, Robert Perrin, one of our stockholders, alleged that
these entities failed to pay him for services allegedly rendered under an Employment Agreement with AIRO Group (Illinois), that the individual
defendants have breached their fiduciary duties as members of our board of directors, and that defendants violated the Computer Fraud
and Abuse Act. On November 17, 2023, we filed a motion to dismiss. In response, the claimant filed an Amended Complaint on February 22,
2024 in which he dropped AIRO Group (Illinois) as a defendant, dropped the breach of contract claim and added a wage claim under Delaware
statute. On April 5, 2024, we filed a Partial Answer and Affirmative Defenses as well as a Partial Motion to Dismiss. In response, the
claimant filed a Second Amended Complaint on May 16, 2024 in which he dropped the wage claim under Delaware statute and added a civil
conspiracy claim against all defendants. We filed an Amended Answer on November 15, 2024. In March 2025, we agreed to settle Mr. Perrin’s
individual claims in the lawsuit for $0.8 million, which will be paid over six quarters with the first payment being made during the
quarter ended September 30, 2025.

Aside
from the above matters, we are not a party to any material legal proceedings and are not aware of any pending or threatened claims. From
time to time, we may be subject to various legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of our business activities.
Legal contingencies are subject to significant uncertainties and, therefore, determining the likelihood of a loss or the measurement
of a loss can be complex. To the extent applicable, we will accrue losses that are both probable and reasonably estimable. As of September
30, 2025, we had accruals of $0.6 million related to litigation.
