Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On May 1, 2025, DeFi Development Corp. (f/k/a Janover Inc.), a Delaware corporation (the “Company”, or the “Buyer”) simultaneously (i) entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Solsync Solutions Partnership, an Alaska general partnership (“Seller”), and Parker White, the sole partner of the Seller (the “Stockholder”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to acquire from the Seller (the “Acquisition”) a “validator” on the Solana blockchain ecosystem and two nodes under the names “BullMoose Systems” and “Strawberry Siren” (the “Purchased Assets”, and also referred to as “Business”) and (ii) closed the Acquisition (the “Closing”). Following the Closing, the Purchased Assets and the Business are now held by the Company.

 

The consideration paid by Buyer to the Seller for the Purchased Assets was an aggregate purchase price (the “Purchase Price”) comprised of: (a) Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) paid in cash at Closing, and (b) Three Million Dollars ($3,000,000) worth of Buyer’s newly issued shares amounting to 86,412 restricted common stock, par value $0.00001 per share (the “Share Consideration”), which was based upon the daily volume-weighted average price of Buyer’s common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market for the period from April 7, 2025 through the Closing Date, or $34.72. The Share Consideration was issued to the Seller at Closing and consists of restricted securities that do not carry any registration rights requiring the filing of any registration statement.

 

Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, as of the Closing, the Buyer and Seller also entered into an assignment and assumption agreement to effect the transfer of the Purchased Assets (the “Assignment and Assumption Agreement”), as well as an IP assignment agreement in connection with Buyer and Seller providing interim services to each other after the Closing (the “Intellectual Property Assignment Agreement”).

 

The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants of Buyer and Seller. The Closing was subject to customary closing conditions, including, without limitation, the completion of due diligence investigations; the receipt of required consents by certain third parties; and the release of certain security interests.

 

The preceding summary of the Purchase Agreement, Intellectual Property Assignment Agreement, and Assignment and Assumption Agreement are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of each of the Purchase Agreement, Intellectual Property Assignment Agreement, and Assignment and Assumption Agreement, copies of which are attached hereto as Exhibit 2.1, Exhibit 10.1 and Exhibit 10.2, respectively, and are incorporated herein by reference.

 

Related Party Transaction

 

Mr. Parker, the sole partner of the Seller, is the Chief Operating Officer and Chief Investment Officer of the Company, and beneficially owns as of the date preceding the Closing of the transaction, more than 21.68% of the issued and outstanding shares of our outstanding common stock. Mr. Parker is considered a related party and the transactions described in this Form 8-K constitute a “related party transaction” as defined by Item 404 of Regulation S-K.

 

The transactions described in this Form 8-K were unanimously approved by a transaction committee comprised solely of disinterested members of the Board before being recommended to the Board for approval and were then unanimously approved by the disinterested members of the Board.

 

In reviewing the transactions described in this Form 8-K, the transaction committee and the disinterested members of the Board considered all relevant facts and circumstances, including without limitation, whether the transactions with Mr. Parker and the Seller, as described in this Form 8-K were proposed to be, or were, entered into on terms no less favorable to the Company than terms that could have been reached with an unrelated third party, the commercial reasonableness of the terms, the benefit and perceived benefit (or lack thereof) to the Company, opportunity costs of alternate transactions, the materiality and character of Mr. Parker’ direct or indirect interest, and Mr. Parker’s actual or apparent conflict of interest, the transaction committee and the disinterested members of the Board determined that upon consideration of all relevant information, the transactions described in this Form 8-K were in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders.
