Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On July 12, 2023, Vivic Corporation (Hong Kong) Co. Limited (“Vivic Hong Kong”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Vivic Corp. (the “Company”), entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with Yun-Kuang Kung (Mr. “Kung”) pursuant to which Mr. Kung acquired all of the shares of our indirectly wholly-owned subsidiary, Guangdong Weiguan Ship Tech Co., Ltd. (“Weiguan Ship Tech”). The divestiture of Weiguan Ship Tech is part of the Company’s plan to concentrate primarily on its business in Taiwan for the immediate future which has shown significant growth in the past three months to facilitate its efforts to uplist its shares to a recognized stock exchange in the United States.

In consideration for its interest in Weiguan Ship Tech, the Company received nominal monetary consideration and the agreement of Mr. Kung to indemnify the Company and its affiliates and hold them harmless from, against and in respect of any and all claims arising out of or related to the business of Weiguan Ship Tech whether arising before or after the date of the Stock Purchase Agreement, whether currently known or unknown, including, without limitation any claims for taxes.

In connection with the sale, the Company commissioned and received an appraisal of Weiguan Ship Tech. In its report the appraiser noted that although Weiguan Ship Tech had a value of approximately RMB 565,000 on a projected income basis, it had negative net assets (shareholders’ equity) in excess of RMB 8,200,000 yuan and Vivic Hong Kong and indirectly, the Company, could be held liable for any liability up to the amount of the subscribed capital contributions in Weiguan Ship Tech. Thus, given the desire of management to focus on the Company’s Taiwan operations, management concluded it was in the best interest of the Company to sell Weiguan Ship Tech to Mr. Kung, the son of Shang-Chiai Kung, the Company’s principal shareholder, President and Chief Executive Officer, in return for his agreement to indemnify the Company against any claims that might arise in respect of the operations of Weiguan Ship Tech and its subsidiaries.
