EXPLANATORY NOTE
Item 2.01 | Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets. |
As previously disclosed, on August 7, 2023, Unicoin Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an Asset Swap Agreement (the “Asset Swap Agreement”) with Electroquimica del Neuquen S.A., an Argentine corporation (the “Seller”), pursuant to which the Seller acquired rights to obtain 420,000,000 unicoin rights from the Company (the “Unicoins”) in exchange for the disposition of certain real estate assets described in the Asset Swap Agreement (the “Real Estate Assets”) of the Seller to the Company (the “Transaction”).
On December 20, 2023, a deed of assignment (the “Deed”) of rights to explore for copper deposits in the Real Estate Assets was signed by the Seller and the Company. According to Argentine law, the Deed is required to be filed with and approved by the State Government, Mining Registry (Provice of Neuquen), for the transfer to be effective. Pursuant to the terms of the Deed, the Seller was required to register the transfer of ownership of the Real Estate Assets to the Company with the local mining registry within 10 business days of the execution of the Deed, and as of February 23, 2024, did not do so. On February 23, 2024, the Company terminated the Asset Swap Agreement via electronic mail and the Seller consented via electronic mail. Unicoin rights delivered to the Seller in connection with the Transaction were planned to be voided due to the termination of the Transaction.
Subsequently, however, the Company was advised that the Company itself could file the deed with the appropriate authorities at its own cost, which the Company proceeded to do. On July 23, 2024, the Province of Neuquen formally registered the transfer of the exploration rights to the Company. Therefore, the Company deems the Transaction to be complete, and will not void the unicoin rights delivered to the Seller.
