Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Asset Purchase Agreement

On September 3, 2026, The Elmet Group Co. (“we,” “us,” “our,” or the “Company”), through

its wholly owned subsidiary, Elmet Technologies LLC (“Elmet Tech”), entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase

Agreement”) with OSRAM GmbH, a German limited liability company (Gesellschaft mit beschränkter Haftung or GmbH) duly organized

and existing under the laws of the Federal Republic of Germany (the “Seller”), pursuant to which Elmet Tech agreed to purchase

substantially all of the assets and rights associated with the Seller’s metal production operations located in Schwabmünchen,

Germany, pertaining to the Seller’s manufacturing and distribution of, among other things, metal pre-materials and metal products

from tungsten and molybdenum metals required for various forms of lighting solutions, such as metal powders, rods, heavy wire, fine wire,

electrodes and other formed parts (the “Business”), and assume certain of the Seller’s liabilities, including employee

and pension liabilities, and contractual relationships exclusively entered into or pertaining to the Business (the “Assumed Liabilities”),

as such terms are set forth in the Purchase Agreement (the “Transaction”). The purchase price will be determined at the closing

of the Transaction (the “Closing”) pursuant to the purchase price formula and adjustment provisions as set forth in the Purchase

Agreement, which generally consists of the aggregate of (i) a fixed amount of negative €18 million, (ii) plus certain pension assets,

(iii) minus the amount of the defined benefit obligation for certain pension liabilities, (iv) minus a restructuring prepayment in the

amount of €1 million, (v) plus the amount, if any, by which the Working Capital (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) of the Business

on the first day of the calendar month of the Closing (the “Effective Date”) exceeds €3.875 million, (vi) minus the amount,

if any, by which the Working Capital of the Business on the Effective Date falls below €3.875 million.

The Purchase Agreement contains certain

representations, warranties and covenants of each of Elmet Tech and the Seller, including covenants by the Seller relating to the

operation of the Business prior to the Closing. Elmet Tech will not acquire the real property on which the Business is operated in

the Transaction, and the Seller will retain ownership of such real property and continue to operate, on the same premises, the

portion of its business that is not being sold pursuant to the Transaction.

Each of Elmet Tech and the Seller has agreed to

indemnify the other for certain losses arising out of breaches of fundamental representations and covenants and for certain losses arising

out of retained liabilities or assumed liabilities, as applicable, subject to customary limitations.

The consummation of the Transaction is subject

to the satisfaction or waiver of customary closing conditions, including required regulatory and anti-trust approvals and the absence

of any law or judgment preventing the Closing. Each party’s obligation to consummate the Transaction is also subject to the accuracy

of the other party’s representations and warranties contained in the Purchase Agreement (subject, with specified exceptions, to

customary materiality standards) and the other party’s performance of its covenants and agreements in all material respects. The

parties’ obligation to consummate the Transaction is also subject to a condition that, since the date of the Purchase Agreement,

there has not been a “Material Adverse Change,” as defined in the Purchase Agreement. The parties have agreed to certain efforts

and obligations to promptly obtain the antitrust and other regulatory approvals required for the Transaction.

Furthermore, the parties have agreed to the following

additional closing conditions:

● Seller shall have conducted a separation of the Business from the remainder of the Seller’s business

that is being retained;

● Seller shall initiate a certain reduction in the workforce operationally assigned to the Business as of

December 31, 2027, for which associated costs are borne by the Seller;

● Elmet Tech must provide its signed contractual trust agreement (“CTA”) documents and independent

expert confirmation that Elmet Tech’s CTA protects the pension benefits of the relevant Business employees, whose employment relationships

shall be transferred to Elmet Tech from the Seller, at least as well as the Seller’s CTA; and

● Elmet Tech shall have ensured all Business employees transferred in the Transaction are covered by collective

bargaining and enter into a binding agreement with the works council of the Seller.

The Company expects to close the Transaction in

the first quarter of its 2027 fiscal year.

Subject to the Closing, the Seller shall grant

Elmet Tech a vendor loan in the aggregate principal amount of €2,500,000, which shall bear no interest (the “Vendor Loan”)

and provide funding of the Vendor Loan on the closing date of the Transaction. The Vendor Loan shall be repaid in two equal installment

payments within twelve months of the Effective Date, with the first installment due and payable six months following the Effective Date

and the second and final installment due and payable twelve months following the Effective Date.

The Purchase Agreement provides withdrawal rights for Elmet Tech and the Seller under certain circumstances, including, subject to certain

conditions, an uncured material breach by the other party or if the Transaction is not consummated by June 30, 2027. If the Seller withdraws

from the Purchase Agreement due to Elmet Tech’s failure to consummate the Transaction under certain circumstances, Elmet Tech will

be required to pay the Seller liquidated damages of €1,350,000 in cash.

In connection with the Transaction, the

parties also intend to enter into a framework contract manufacturing agreement and related project agreements, a lease agreement, a transitional services agreement and certain other ancillary agreements at the Closing.

The foregoing description of the Purchase Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the

full text of the Purchase Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 2.1, and the terms of which are incorporated herein

by reference. The Purchase Agreement contains representations, warranties and covenants that the respective parties made to each other

as of the date of such agreement or other specific dates. The assertions embodied in those representations, warranties and covenants were

made for purposes of the contract among the respective parties and are subject to important qualifications and limitations agreed to

by the parties in connection with negotiating such agreement. The representations, warranties and covenants in the Purchase Agreement

are also modified in important part by the underlying disclosure schedules which are not filed publicly and which are subject to a contractual

standard of materiality different from that generally applicable for securities law purposes and were used for the purpose of allocating

risk among the parties rather than establishing matters as facts. The Company does not believe that these schedules contain information

that is material to an investment decision. Investors are not third-party beneficiaries under the Purchase Agreement and should not rely

on the representations, warranties and covenants or any descriptions thereof as characterizations of the actual state of facts or condition

of the parties thereto or any of their respective affiliates.

Item 7.01. Regulation FD Information.

On September 8, 2026, the Company issued a press

release announcing the Transaction with the Seller. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated by

reference herein.

The information furnished in Item 7.01 of this

Current Report on Form 8-K as well as Exhibit 99.1, shall not be deemed to be “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities

Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, unless the

Company specifically states that the information is to be considered “filed” under the Exchange Act or specifically incorporates

it by reference into a filing under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act.

Risk Factors

The Company’s business, prospects, financial

condition and results of operations, as well as the price of the Common Stock, can be affected by a number of factors, whether currently

known or unknown, including those described in the section entitled “Risk Factors” our Registration Statement on Form S-1

(File No. 333-294725), as amended and supplemented (the “IPO Registration Statement”), and declared effective by the U.S.

Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on April 22, 2026 and Part II, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in our Quarterly

Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended April 3, 2026 and July 3, 2026 (the “Form 10-Qs”). When any one or more of these

risks materialize from time to time, the Company’s business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations, as well as

the price of the Common Stock, can be materially and adversely affected.

The Company is supplementing the risk factors

previously disclosed in the Company’s IPO Registration Statement and Form 10-Qs with the risk factors relating to the Transactions

set forth below.

Risks Related to the Transaction

The purchase price for the Transaction is

not currently determinable. The final purchase price we pay at the Closing will be determined by a number of factors, some of which, including

the price of tungsten, will be outside of our control. The final purchase price may differ from our pre-Closing expectations, which if

the difference is significant, could materially affect our financial results.

The final purchase price we pay for the Transaction will not be determined until the Closing and will be determined in accordance with

a purchase price formulation detailed in the Purchase Agreement, which includes factors outside of our control. For example, part of the

value that will be ascribed to the Business at the Closing is the current inventory of the Business, which includes significant amounts

of Ammonium Paratungstate, molybdenum powder, work in process and finished goods that will be valued at prevailing market prices. The

international tungsten market has seen significant volatility in recent years, with prices surging from $330 per metric ton unit on January

1, 2025, to over $3,000 per metric ton unit on March 31, 2026, an increase of over 800%. If the price of tungsten were to significantly

increase, or the value of any of the factors of the purchase price formulation were to significantly change between the date hereof and

Closing, it could result in a significant increase in the purchase price for the Transaction. If the purchase price for the Transaction

were to significantly increase above our current expectations, among other things, the Transaction may become economically unviable, forcing

us to abandon the Transaction and potentially pay liquidated damages to the Seller, or, if we consummate the transaction it may take us

longer than anticipated to obtain the anticipated benefits from the Transaction, if we are able to obtain a benefit at all. Whether the

Transaction is consummated or abandoned, any significant increase to the purchase price for the Transaction could have a material adverse

impact on our business, liquidity position, financial condition and results of operations.

of the date hereof, the Company’s Form 10-Qs, and other filings with the SEC, which factors are incorporated herein by reference.

consummation of the Transaction; the possibility that any or all of the conditions to the consummation of the Transaction may not be satisfied

or waived, including failure to receive required regulatory approvals; risks that the Company may not be able to benefit from the Transaction

Preamble

(A) Seller is a member of the ams OSRAM group of companies (together the “ams OSRAM Group Companies”

and each an “ams OSRAM Group Company”), a multinational group listed on the SIX Swiss Exchange and one of the global

leaders in innovative light and sensor solutions.

(B) Seller develops, manufactures, and distributes, inter alia, lighting products, photonic solutions

and related products, including metal pre-products. Through its metal pre-material production division located in Schwabmünchen,

Germany, Seller manufactures and distributes, inter alia, metal pre-materials and metal products from tungsten and molybdenum metals

required for various forms of lighting solutions, such as metal powders, rods, heavy wire, fine wire, electrodes and other formed parts

(the “Metal Production Operations”). Following a strategic analysis of its business, Seller has decided to divest the

Metal Production Operations.

in the production of chemicals (such as luminescent material (including phosphors), emitters, getters and cement) (the “Excluded

Operations”).

(D) Seller currently conducts the Metal Production Operations (as well as the Excluded Operations) in Germany

from its own offices and manufacturing facilities located at Mittelstetter Weg 2, 86830 Schwabmünchen, Germany (the “Premises”).

An overview of the factory floor space of the Premises is attached hereto as Exhibit (D).

(E) Purchaser is an affiliate of The Elmet Group Co., a Delaware corporation with registered address at 2

Portland Fish Pier, Portland, Maine 04101, USA, one of North America’s leading fully integrated producers of tungsten and molybdenum

products.

(F) Purchaser wishes, presumably through the Acquisition Company (as defined below and as the case may be)

to be determined by it, to acquire the assets and assume the liabilities and contractual relationships pertaining to the Metal Production

Operations, as provided for in this agreement (the “Agreement”). Only such assets, liabilities and contractual relationships

shall pertain to the Metal Production Operations for purposes of this Agreement which are exclusively purchased, used, entered into or

otherwise exclusively pertaining to the Metal Production Operations. Excluded from the sale and purchase are such assets, liabilities

and contractual relationships not exclusively pertaining to the Metal Production Operations and those as defined as Excluded Assets, Excluded

Agreements and Excluded Liabilities below. The Metal Production Operations as a business unit so described, excluding those assets, liabilities

and contractual relationships that do not relate exclusively to the Metal Production Operations and excluding such Excluded Assets, Excluded

Agreements and Excluded Liabilities is referred to as the “Business”. Purchaser wishes to continue the Business in

the same or a similar way as it is currently conducted by Seller, subject to certain employee-related restructuring measures as further

set out herein.

(G) The Purchaser has prepared a business plan relating to the Business covering the time period until 31

December 2028 and will retain Baker Tilly GmbH & Co. KG Wirtschaftsprüfungsgesellschaft (the “Expert”) as

an independent expert to conduct an independent business review as of the Closing Date (the “IBR”) in relation to the

Business. In the IBR, the Expert shall confirm that based on the business plan of the Purchaser, the Business (as continued by the Purchaser

or the Acquisition Company, as the case may be) would neither be illiquid (zahlungsunfähig) pursuant to Section 17 of the

German Insolvency Code (InsO), nor imminently illiquid (drohend zahlungsunfähig) pursuant to Section 18 InsO or over-indebted

(überschuldet) pursuant to Section 19 InsO and that, instead, the Business (as continued by the Purchaser or the Acquisition

Company, as the case may be) would maintain a going concern (positive Fortführungsprognose) during the entire planning period.

The draft IBR contains certain financing elements required for the going concern, which the Purchaser is willing to provide.

(H) As Purchaser intends to continue and develop the Business, the Parties wish to enter into a framework

contract manufacturing agreement and related agreements to govern the Parties’ future business relation after the Closing Date (as

defined below).

Now, therefore, the Parties agree as

follows:

1. Sale and Purchase of Assets

1.1. Sold Assets

1.1.1. Subject to the condition precedent (aufschiebende Bedingung) of the occurrence of the Closing,

Seller hereby sells, and Purchaser hereby purchases the following assets, which exclusively pertain to the Business on the Effective Date

(as defined below) and which (in relation to the assets and inventories set out in clause 1.1.1(a) and clause 1.1.1(b)) are

located at the Premises in the areas encircled in blue in the location plan enclosed as Exhibit 1.1.1 (the “Sold

Assets”):

extent physically existing at the Premises on the Effective Date or in transit to be received by or delivered to the Seller including,

without limitation, those listed in Exhibit 1.1.1(a);

(b) the listed inventories pertaining exclusively to the Business (e.g., raw materials, works in progress,

finished products and merchandise) and the benefit of payment on account (Anzahlungen) made in respect thereof as specified in

Exhibit 1.1.1(b), if and to the extent physically existing at the Premises on the Effective Date or currently in transit

to be received by or delivered to the Seller;

(d) all transferable permits, if any, (excluding personal permits) and other governmental authorizations relating

exclusively to the Business;

(e) any securities which serve as collateral for partial retirement benefits, pension benefits or similar

employee benefits which transfer is exclusively subject to clause 4.11 below; and

(f) all available records and documentation (whether in hard copy or computer format) exclusively pertaining

to the Sold Assets, except for those records and documentation Seller is legally required to retain, however Seller shall grant access

to such documents on Purchaser’s demand in accordance with and subject to clause 16.3.

1.1.2. Any other assets of Seller not explicitly mentioned in clause 1.1.1 (the “Excluded Assets”)

shall be excluded from the sale pursuant to clause 1.1.1, including but not limited to:

(a) any assets of Seller pertaining to the Excluded Operations or any other of Seller’s divisions or

operations;

(b) cash, balances on accounts and loan receivables from entities affiliated with Seller;

(d) any assets that are rented, leased or licensed by Seller other than pursuant to any Assumed Agreement;

(e) all corporate records, records not exclusively pertaining to (i) the Sold Assets, (ii) the Assumed Agreements

(as defined below), (iii) the Assumed Liabilities (as defined below) and (iv) the Transferred Employees (as defined below) and (v) any

records which Seller is legally required to retain, subject to clause 16.3;

(f) any rights and claims relating to any Excluded Asset, Excluded Agreement or Excluded Liability (as defined

below);

(g) any patents, trademarks and other registered intellectual property rights;

(h) any real estate; and

(i) any and all accounts receivables.

1.1.3. In the event that any Sold Asset is subject to a retention of title right (Eigentumsvorbehalt)

in favor of a supplier, Seller’s expectant right (Anwartschaftsrecht) shall be sold.

1.1.4. Any rights and claims in connection with the Sold Assets (in particular any warranty and guarantee claims

against the former seller or manufacturer of the Sold Assets) against third parties who are not ams OSRAM Group Companies shall also be

sold to Purchaser, or the Acquisition Company (as the case may be).

1.2. Specification of certain Sold Assets (assets and inventories) upon Closing Date:

1.2.1. The Sold Assets include in any case the assets and inventories specified in the lists attached hereto

as Exhibits 1.1.1(a) and 1.1.1(b). All inventories which, during the time period from the date hereof (the “Signing Date”)

not sold as part of the Sold Assets.

1.2.2. Assets which have been, or will be, manufactured, acquired or otherwise received by Seller in respect

of the Business during the period from the Signing Date up to the Effective Date as a replacement for, or supplementary to, the assets

specified in the assets lists are sold under this Agreement as part of the Sold Assets. Seller shall update the lists of above named assets

and inventories in Exhibit 1.1.1(a) and Exhibit 1.1.1(b) five business days (where banks are opened for business in Munich) (“Business

Days”) prior to the Closing Date – such lists to be made as of the Closing Date – and submit it to Purchaser.

1.2.3. If a Party identifies, within twelve months after the Closing Date, any asset, liability, contract or

other legal relationship that is owned or held by Seller but was intended, pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, to be transferred

to, or be assumed by, the Purchaser (or the Acquisition Company, as the case may be), or was transferred to, or assumed by, the Purchaser

(or the Acquisition Company, as the case may be) but was intended to be retained by Seller (each a “Wrong-Box Item”),

it shall notify the relevant other Party (and the Acquisition Company, as the case may be) without undue delay. Any such Wrong-Box Item

shall be promptly transferred to the relevant other Party (or the Acquisition Company, as the case may be) for no further consideration

or compensation. If, after the lapse of the twelve-months period referred to above, any further Wrong-Box Items are identified, no Party

shall have any obligations under this clause with respect to such Wrong-Box Items, however Purchaser (or the Acquisition Company, as the

case may be) shall have the right for a further and subsequent six-months period after the lapse of the twelve-months period referred

to above to buy and acquire such Wrong-Box Item against payment of a consideration based on the book value of such Wrong-Box Item.

2. Assumed Agreements and Business Relationships

2.1. Subject to the condition precedent (aufschiebende Bedingung) of the occurrence of the Closing,

Purchaser, or the Acquisition Company (as the case may be), shall assume, with effect as of the Effective Date, by way of assumption of

contract with full discharge of Seller as the original debtor (im Wege der befreienden Vertragsübernahme), all rights and

obligations of Seller under the agreements and business relationships pertaining to the Business as specified in Exhibit 2.1

(“Assumed Agreements”). Any other agreements pertaining to the Business, in particular all agreements between ams OSRAM

Group Companies, shall not be assumed by Purchaser (or the Acquisition Company, as the case may be) (“Excluded Agreements”).

Seller shall update the list of above-named Assumed Agreements in Exhibit 2.1 (such update to reflect only agreements listed in Exhibit

2.1 that have been terminated, amended or replaced between the Signing Date and the Effective Date) and submit it to Purchaser five Business

Days prior to the Closing Date – such list to be made as of the Closing Date – and submit it to Purchaser.

2.2. Third Party Consents and Cooperation:

2.2.1. Seller and Purchaser shall, without undue delay from the Signing Date, use their reasonable efforts to

obtain the consent of the respective third parties to the assumption of the Assumed Agreements pursuant to clause 2.1. As long as such

consent has not been granted, they agree to put each other economically in the same position as if such approval had been obtained as

of the Effective Date. Upon request of either Party, the Parties shall, for this purpose, enter into suitable agreements so as to transfer

the benefits and costs arising out of the relevant Assumed Agreements to Purchaser.

2.2.2. If the relevant third party does not grant its consent to the transfer of such agreement within a period

of six (6) months after the Closing Date, Seller may upon prior notice to Purchaser terminate the relevant Assumed Agreement at the earliest

date available so long as such termination complies with the Assumed Agreement termination terms and conditions. Purchaser shall indemnify

and hold harmless (freistellen und ersetzen) Seller (without any right of set-off or withholding or other limitation and subject

only to a maximum limitation period of ten (10) years from the date of termination) from all obligations, liabilities, costs and expenses

arising out of or in connection with such termination.

2.2.3. Purchaser (or the Acquisition Company, as the case may be) shall obtain full benefit of all contractual

rights, benefits and claims arising out of, or in connection with, the Assumed Agreements, whether arising before, on or after the Effective

Date (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any Excluded Assets and Excluded Liabilities).

2.2.4. Purchaser shall be responsible to Seller for any liabilities (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any

Excluded Liabilities) relating to such Assumed Agreements and, to the extent legally permissible, carry out, perform and complete all

the obligations (including contingent obligations) of Seller under, or in relation to, the Assumed Agreements and shall bear its own costs

and any expenses, as the case may be, for the performance of such obligations if such costs or expenses are not to be borne by the contractual

partner of the relevant Assumed Agreement.

2.2.5. Purchaser shall indemnify and keep indemnified Seller in respect of any costs, claims, demands, expenses,

proceedings, losses and liabilities arising out of and relating to the period from and including the Effective Date resulting from a breach

by Purchaser in the performance of any obligations under any Assumed Agreement according to clause 2.2.4 above.

2.3. Seller shall promptly forward to Purchaser (or the Acquisition Company, as the case may be) all payments

and correspondence relating to any Assumed Agreement or Sold Asset and any offers, orders and other communication by customers, suppliers

and other business partners of the Business which are received by Seller after the Effective Date. Purchaser, or the Acquisition Company,

as the case may be, shall promptly forward to Seller all payments and correspondence relating to any Excluded Agreement or Excluded Asset

which are received by Purchaser after the Effective Date. Regarding any former communication and documentation clause 16.3 shall apply

analogously.

3. Assumed Liabilities

3.1. Except as set forth in clause 3.2 below and subject to the condition precedent (aufschiebende Bedingung)

of the occurrence of the Closing, Purchaser, or the Acquisition Company (as the case may be), shall assume, by way of assumption of debt

with full discharge of the original debtor (im Wege der befreienden Schuldübernahme), with effect as of the Effective Date,

all obligations and liabilities arising in the Business with respect to employee and pension liabilities related to the Transferred Employees

(as defined and subject to clause 4.10 and clause 4.11 below) and liabilities arising from Assumed Agreements (including open

customer orders placed under Assumed Agreements and statutory warranty claims, if any, arising in connection with Assumed Agreements)

after the Effective Date, as specified in Exhibit 3.1 (collectively the “Assumed Liabilities”).

3.2. The following obligations and liabilities (the “Excluded Liabilities”) shall be excluded

from the assumption by Purchaser, or the Acquisition Company (as the case may be), pursuant to clause 3.1:

3.2.1. the any liabilities relating to the purchase orders listed in Exhibit 3.2.1;

3.2.2. any obligations or liabilities relating to any Excluded Assets;

3.2.3. any obligations or liabilities arising from (i) any breaches of contract or (ii) any injury or damage

caused by products sold, or by services rendered, by Seller on or prior to the Effective Date (including any obligations and liabilities

under product warranties or product liability);

3.2.4. liabilities for the payment of taxes, social security obligations and other public charges (including

any interest, penalties and other charges thereon and additions thereto) (for the avoidance of doubt, except for those specified in Exhibit

3.1);

3.2.5. any trade accounts payable towards suppliers;

3.2.6. any liabilities towards employees (including pension liabilities) whose employment contracts are not transferred

to Purchaser, or the Acquisition Company (as the case may be), pursuant to clause 4, unless explicitly otherwise provided in this Agreement;

3.2.7. any obligations or liabilities arising from any failure by Seller, prior to the Effective Date, to comply

with any applicable law or regulation, regardless of when such obligations or liabilities arise or are discovered; and

3.2.8. any obligations or liabilities related to any governmental grant or subsidy to Seller, unless such grant

or subsidy was specifically granted in respect of the Business and is transferred to Purchaser.

3.3. Purchaser shall indemnify and hold harmless Seller from and against all claims of third parties relating

to the Assumed Liabilities and reimburse Seller for all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by it in connection therewith. Seller shall

indemnify and hold harmless Purchaser, or the Acquisition Company (as the case may be), from and against all claims of third parties relating

to the Excluded Liabilities and reimburse Purchaser for all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by it in connection therewith.

4. Transfer of Employees; Pensions

4.1. Seller shall take all legally and factually necessary measures, to conduct a separation of operations

(Betriebsspaltung) with respect to its Schwabmünchen site that results in an operational separation of the Metal Production

Operations and the Business respectively from the Excluded Operations prior to the Effective Date, taking into account any co-determination

rights (if so) of competent co-determination bodies. The implementation of this measure described in this clause 4.1 shall be referred

to as the “Reorganization”.

4.2. Exhibit 4.2 contains the relevant process and further criteria which must be complied

with by the Seller and the Purchaser regarding the reduction of the headcount of employees operationally assigned to the Metal Production

Operations and the Business as of end of December 31, 2027 due to the prospective discontinuation of OSRAM’s demand for metal products.

4.3. Prior to the Effective Date, Seller shall initiate the legally and factually necessary measures that will

lead to a reduction from 157 employees to 120 employees operationally assigned to the Metal Production Operations and the Business as

of end of December 31, 2027 (the “Employee Reduction Date”), taking into account any co-determination rights (if so)

of competent co-determination bodies (the “Employee Reduction”) . For this purpose, Seller shall, to the extent legally

required, (i) duly complete the reconciliation of interests procedure, (ii) conclude a social plan or, if applicable, establish it through

the conciliation committee, (iii) implement a voluntary leaver program, if possible, and (iv) duly complete the co-determination consultation

procedure with the works council. Costs incurred in the course of these measures as a result of the conclusion of collective and/or works

agreements (if any) with the responsible co-determination committees (e.g. social plan, voluntary redundancy programs), are borne by Seller

in the fixed amount of EUR 1,000,000 (the “Restructuring Prepayment Amount”). The Restructuring Payment Amount

will be taken into account when calculating the Purchase Price (see clause 8.1.4). Purchaser’s approval shall not be required for

the conclusion of corresponding collective and/or works agreements (e.g. social plan, voluntary redundancy programs) or the costs associated

therewith. However, Seller shall (i) involve Purchaser in due time in the preparation of its negotiation position vis-à-vis the

competent employee representative bodies, (ii) keep Purchaser regularly informed of the status and material developments of any co-determination

proceedings with the competent employee representative bodies (including negotiations on a reconciliation of interests, social plan or

voluntary redundancy programs), and (iii) provide Purchaser without undue delay with copies of any collective and/or works agreements

concluded in this context, subject to legal requirements (particularly data protection laws). For the avoidance of doubt: Until end of

December 2027, the Seller will continue to have a demand for metal products from the Business. Seller believes that, until such date,

the Metal Production Operations should be staffed with a sufficient number of employees in order to properly meet such demand. Against

this background, prior to the Effective Date, (i) Seller shall not prepare or initiate any measures leading to a reduction of the Business

Employees which would have a material adverse effect on the Metal Production Operations taking effect prior to end of December 2027 and

(ii) Purchaser shall not implement any reduction of such Business Employees for operational reasons with effect prior to end of December

2027. The Purchaser’s right to reduce the number of Business Employees through retirement or attrition or to declare terminations

of employment relationships of Business Employees for other reasons (personal or misconduct) or for cause remains unaffected.

4.4. Under this Agreement, the following definitions shall apply:

4.4.1. “Business Employees” are all such employees of Seller who are assigned to the Business

and listed (on an anonymized basis with due respect to the local laws and regulations) in Exhibit 4.4.1 hereto. Further,

such employees who are hired for or assigned to the Business in the time between the Signing Date and the Effective Date, e.g. as replacement

or for the purpose of filling vacancies, shall be deemed to be Business Employees, provided that the regulations and/or the necessary

approvals resulting from the covenants in clause 13 have been complied with and/or have been obtained in advance. Seller shall inform

Purchaser without undue delay of any such hiring, providing the relevant position, salary band and qualification profile. Prior to the

Effective Date, any information provided to the Purchaser under this Section shall be, however, limited to function-related, non-identifying

data; personal data of individual employees or candidates shall only be disclosed following the Effective Date or, where required earlier,

in anonymized or pseudonymized form or through a clean team arrangement in accordance with applicable data protection laws. Seller shall

take into due account legitimate interests of Purchaser before actual hiring. Seller shall update Exhibit 4.4.1 five Business Days

prior to the Closing Date – such list to be made as of the Closing Date – and submit it to Purchaser.

4.4.2. Employees of Seller that legally effective (rechtskräftig) transfer from Seller to Purchaser,

or the Acquisition Company (as the case may be), under the Transfer Regulations (as defined below) shall be referred to as the “Transferred

Employees”.

4.4.3. Employees of Seller who are not Business Employees, but who have asserted the transfer of their employment

relationship under the Transfer Regulations (as defined below) and whose transfer to Purchaser, or the Acquisition Company (as the case

may be), appears legally plausible, shall be referred to as the “Additional Employees”.

4.5. The Parties acknowledge and agree that the employment relationships of the Business Employees shall transfer

from Seller to Purchaser, or the Acquisition Company (as the case may be), as of the Effective Date by operation of law subject to sec.

613a German Civil Code (the “Transfer Regulations”).

4.6. Seller and Purchaser, or the Acquisition Company (as the case may be), shall each comply with any mandatory

obligations to inform and consult with any employee representative bodies, if applicable, and shall reasonably support each other in complying

with the respective procedures, either by providing timely and accurate information at the other Party’s request, or at the request

of the Acquisition Company, as the case may be, or by participating in the relevant meetings with the employee representatives if requested

by the respective other Party, or the Acquisition Company (as the case may be). This also applies to the Reorganization. In case of a

transfer to the Acquisition Company, Purchaser shall procure (dafür einstehen) that the Acquisition Company complies with

any mandatory obligations to inform and reasonably supports Seller in complying with the information and consultation procedures.

4.7. Seller and Purchaser, or the Acquisition Company (as the case may be), shall jointly inform the Business

Employees about the proposed transfer of their employment relationships in accordance with the Transfer Regulations. This information

shall be compiled and, if necessary, drafted jointly by both Seller and Purchaser, or Seller and the Acquisition Company (as the case

may be), who shall cooperate in good faith. Seller and Purchaser shall use reasonable efforts to procure that no Business Employee exercises

his right to object to the transfer of employment. The Parties agree, however, that neither side is required to provide additional financial

incentives to Business Employees not to exercise their objection rights. If it is established that the information does not comply with

the Transfer Regulations, Seller and Purchaser shall, as soon as reasonably possible, take all reasonable actions and measures to ensure

that the information requirements under the Transfer Regulations are met. In case of a transfer to the Acquisition Company, Purchaser

shall procure (dafür einstehen) that the Acquisition Company complies with the respective obligations mentioned in this clause 4.7.

4.8. If a Business Employee objects to the proposed transfer of his employment relationship under the Transfer

Regulations (herein “Objecting Employee”), each Party shall inform the other Party and the Acquisition Company (as

the case may be) without undue delay (unverzüglich) in writing about any objection which it has received, and shall make any

correspondence in this context available to the respective other Party, to the extent permitted by law. In case of a transfer to the Acquisition

Company, Purchaser shall procure (dafür einstehen) that the Acquisition Company complies correspondingly with the obligations

set out in the previous sentence. The Parties shall coordinate, whether any deployment of Objecting Employees at Purchaser, or the Acquisition

Company (as the case may be), by way of temporary employment (Arbeitnehmerüberlassung) is feasible. Costs associated with

the continuation or termination of the employment relationship of Objecting Employees (including but not limited to all remuneration components,

pension liabilities, social security contributions, severance payments, litigation costs, etc.) shall be borne by Seller, except (i) for

periods during which Objecting Employees are deployed at Purchaser, or the Acquisition Company (as the case may be), by way of temporary

employment (Arbeitnehmerüberlassung) and (ii) in cases in which an objection is issued after the expiry of the one-month objection

period and such a later objection is possible solely because Purchaser, or the Acquisition Company (as the case may be), has omitted necessary

or has provided incorrect information for the notification letter, in which cases corresponding costs shall be borne by Purchaser. Notwithstanding

the foregoing, costs in relation to claims under employment contracts to which Objecting Employees are entitled as a result of work or

services provided for Purchaser, or the Acquisition Company (as the case may be), between the Effective Date and his exercise of the right

to object pursuant to the Transfer Regulations; these shall be fulfilled by Purchaser alone.

4.9. Each Party shall notify the respective other Party and the Acquisition Company (as the case may be) without

undue delay (unverzüglich) in writing of the identity of any relevant Additional Employee. Purchaser shall notify Seller without

undue delay (unverzüglich) whether Purchaser, or the Acquisition Company (as the case may be), wishes to continue to employ

such Additional Employee or not. If Purchaser does not want to continue the employment of an Additional Employee, the Parties shall offer

the respective Additional Employee without undue delay (unverzüglich) the reemployment at Seller and the Parties shall work

together to achieve the reemployment at Seller at no additional costs for either Party. In case of a transfer to the Acquisition Company,

Purchaser shall procure (dafür einstehen) that the Acquisition Company coordinates with Seller to offer the respective Additional

Employee without undue delay (unverzüglich) the reemployment at Seller and that the Acquisition Company works together with

Seller to achieve the reemployment at Seller at no additional costs for either Party if the Acquisition Company does not want to continue

the employment of an Additional Employee. If the respective Additional Employee does not accept the Parties’ offer within a period

of two weeks, Purchaser shall immediately and irrevocable release the Additional Employees from the performance of their work (unwiderrufliche

Freistellung) and shall use reasonable efforts to terminate the relevant employment relationships of the Additional Employees at the

earliest possible point in time, if this has not already occurred (e.g. by Seller in the course of the Reorganization). In case of a transfer

to the Acquisition Company, the Purchaser shall procure (dafür einstehen) that the Acquisition Company complies correspondingly

with the obligations of the Purchaser set out in the previous sentence. As of the Effective Date, Seller shall indemnify and hold harmless

(freistellen und ersetzen) Purchaser, or the Acquisition Company (as the case may be), for expenses incurred by Purchaser, or the

Acquisition Company (as the case may be), (i) in connection of the termination of any of the Additional Employees limited to severance

payments that would have been due if the Seller’s social plan from 15 November 2023 and attached hereto as Exhibit 4.9

had applied and limited to statutory legal fees per Additional Employee according to Rechtsanwaltsvergütungsgesetz - RVG

and (ii) as employer of the Additional Employees up to the termination of the employment relationship for the continued payment of the

monthly gross salary last paid before the Effective Date (i.e. fixed salary plus any special payments owed under the collective/works

agreements or employment contract payments before deduction of wage tax and social security contributions) limited to a maximum period

of six (6) months from the Effective Date. Seller’s obligation to indemnify and hold harmless (freistellen und ersetzen)

Purchaser, or the Acquisition Company (as the case may be), for such expenses incurred by Purchaser, or the Acquisition Company (as the

case may be), as employer of the Additional Employees does not apply to claims under employment contracts to which Additional Employees

are entitled as a result of work or services provided for Purchaser, or the Acquisition Company (as the case may be); these are to be

fulfilled by Purchaser, or the Acquisition Company (as the case may be), alone.

4.10. Obligations and liabilities arising externally (im Außenverhältnis) from the relationships

between the Parties, or Seller and the Acquisition Company (as the case may be), and the Transferred Employees are governed by the Transfer

Regulations, in particular sec. 613a para. 1 and 2 German Civil Code.

As between Seller

and Purchaser (im Innenverhältnis), or between Seller and the Acquisition Company (as the case may be) (im Innenverhältnis),

unless explicitly otherwise provided in this Agreement, any obligations and liabilities from the employment relationships with the Transferred

Employees, including but not limited to wages, salaries, incentive payments, royalties, (annual-)bonuses, vacation and Christmas bonuses,

overtime and comparable claims, taxes and social security contributions will entirely be borne by Purchaser with effect after the Effective

Date. In case Seller fulfills or has to fulfill obligations and liabilities in relation to third parties under sec. 613a para. 1 and/or

2 BGB, which were allocated internally to Purchaser, or the Acquisition Company (as the case may be), Purchaser shall fully indemnify

and hold harmless (freistellen und ersetzen) Seller upon first demand (auf erstes Anfordern).

4.11. Pension Obligations

4.11.1. Exhibit 4.11.1 contains a list of all applicable plans, schemes, arrangements or individual

commitments (whether externally funded or unfunded and whether or not such plans, schemes, arrangements or commitments are tax-qualified

under applicable law) for the provision of or contribution towards retirement benefits (together the “Retirement Benefit Plans”),

applicable to Business Employees as of the Signing Date. Seller represents and warrants that (i) no Retirement Benefit Plan exists or

has existed in relation to any Business Employee other than those listed in Exhibit 4.11.1, and (ii) Exhibit 4.11.1 contains a true, complete

and accurate description of the material terms of each Retirement Benefit Plan. “Retirement Benefits” means (i) any

pensions, lump sums or similar benefits payable on retirement (incl. those that are established under defined contribution arrangements),

post-retirement medical and dental benefits, (ii) deferred compensation accounted for as a defined benefit plan under IAS 19, and (iii)

retirement indemnities and death benefits (Sterbegelder) and retirement bridge payments (Übergangszahlungen) and partial

retirement schemes (Altersteilzeitregelungen) and jubilee payments (Jubiläumszahlungen). Contributions that result

exclusively from the fulfillment of a statutory obligation in accordance with section 1a para. 1a of the German Occupational Pensions

Act shall not be disclosed in Exhibit 4.11.1.

4.11.2. Liabilities relating to the Retirement Benefit Plans that apply to the Business Employees accrued for

the periods until the Effective Date (herein the “Transferring Pension Liabilities”) will be transferred to the Purchaser,

or the Acquisition Company (as the case may be), on the Effective Date as if the applicable Retirement Benefit Plan would have originally

been implemented by the Purchaser, or the Acquisition Company (as the case may be), or made between the Purchaser, or the Acquisition

Company (as the case may be), and the Transferred Employee. The amount of the defined benefit obligation for Transferring Pension Liabilities

pursuant to IFRS (herein “DBO Pension Amount”) shall be calculated on the basis of and in accordance with the actuarial

assumptions and methods as set out in Exhibit 4.11.2. For the avoidance of doubt, the DBO Pension Amount shall be calculated

in respect of all Transferring Pension Liabilities in full and irrespective of the limitation of the CTA funding and security pursuant

to clause 4.11.3.

4.11.3. Transferring Pension Liabilities are partly funded via a contractual trust agreement (the “Seller

CTA”). Prior to the Effective Date, Purchaser, or the Acquisition Company (as the case may be), shall set up a new contractual

trust agreement (the “Purchaser CTA”) in order to secure the obligations and liabilities under the Retirement Benefit

Plans that are funded by the Seller CTA (the “CTA Plans”) in respect of the Transferred Employees. The contractual

trust funding and security by the Purchaser CTA shall be limited to the part of the Transferring Pension Liabilities in respect of the

Transferred Employees which, as of the Effective Date, is not covered by the statutory insolvency protection for occupational retirement

provision afforded by the ‘Pensions-Sicherungs-Verein auf Gegenseitigkeit’ pursuant to Sections 7 et seq. German Company

Pensions Act (‘Betriebsrentengesetz – BetrAVG’), whether (i) because the relevant Retirement Benefit is not subject

to statutory insolvency protection or (ii) because the relevant entitlement exceeds the coverage ceiling pursuant to Section 7 para. 3

BetrAVG, in each case as determined and quantified in accordance with the actuarial assumptions and methods set out in Exhibit 4.11.2

(the “Non-PSV-Protected Portion”). Accordingly, (i) only the Retirement Benefits in respect of the Transferred Employees

that fall within the Non-PSV-Protected Portion shall be secured via the Purchaser CTA, and (ii) only those assets held by the Seller CTA

that are attributable to the Non-PSV-Protected Portion (the ““Transferring Pension Assets”“) shall be transferred

to the Purchaser CTA. Transferring Pension Assets shall generally mean cash; provided, however, that if the Parties so agree, Transferring

Pension Assets may also comprise other assets (e.g. fund units/shares). Purchaser shall procure (dafür einstehen) that the

Purchaser CTA is set up in a form that allows for an effective transfer of Transferring Pension Assets held by the Seller CTA in respect

of the relevant Transferred Employees and in each case to the extent of the Non-PSV-Protected Portion and/or the liquidation of the Transferring

Pension Assets for the purpose of transferring an equivalent in cash, in each case to the trustee of the Purchaser CTA (the “Purchaser

Trustee”) with effect from and including the Effective Date, it being agreed that in order to allow for an effective transfer

of assets and/or liquidation of assets for the purpose of a transfer of cash the current setup of a relevant Seller CTA might require

the Purchaser CTA to be set up (i) with terms and conditions substantially similar and in no event less favorable to the relevant Transferred

Employees than the terms and conditions applying to the Seller CTA and/or (ii) the relevant Transferred Employees who have rights and

claims under the CTA Plans enjoying no less favorable protection in connection with the replacement of the Seller CTA by the Purchaser

CTA and that, if and to the extent required, Purchaser shall in such case procure (dafür einstehen) that such terms and conditions

and protection are implemented in setting up the Purchaser CTA. Seller shall furnish Purchaser, or the Acquisition Company (as the case

may be), with all information reasonably requested by Purchaser, or the Acquisition Company (as the case may be), to allow for a setup

of the Purchaser CTA in compliance with this clause 4.11.3.

4.11.4. Seller and Purchaser (or the Acquisition Company, as the case may be) shall issue all necessary statements

and notices to effectuate and/or facilitate the transfer pursuant to clause 4.11.3 above. Purchaser hereby confirms and shall procure

(dafür einstehen) that the transferred assets will only be held to safeguard and fund the obligations and liabilities arising

out of or in connection with the CTA Plans relating to the Transferred Employees and shall be solely used for payment of the applicable

benefits to the Transferred Employees whose benefits are included into the calculation of such obligations and liabilities. Any costs

of actuaries, auditors and / or other advisors arising in connection with the transfer of the Transferring Pension Assets, including (i)

the costs for the certificate confirming an equivalent level of security of the pension assets in connection with their transfer to Purchaser’s

CTA and (ii) the costs for the valuation of the Non-PSV-Protected Portion, shall be borne by Purchaser; all other costs of the transfer

(including any taxes triggered by the transfer) shall be borne by Seller.

4.11.5. The Parties shall immediately take all necessary actions and make all necessary declarations to ensure

the transfer in compliance with the procedures and principles as described above. Seller and Purchaser also agree to cooperate and take

such reasonable actions and to execute and deliver such additional documents as may be necessary to effect such transfer and assumptions.

Until the Effective Date, Seller shall continue to administer, fund and operate all Retirement Benefit Plans in the ordinary course of

business and in compliance with all applicable laws, including the BetrAVG, and shall not, without Purchaser’s prior written consent

unless there is a respective legal obligation to do so, (i) amend, terminate or modify any Retirement Benefit Plan, (ii) grant or promise

any new or additional retirement benefits to any Business Employee, or (iii) take any action or omit to take any action that would increase

the Transferring Pension Liabilities or adversely affect the Transferring Pension Assets. In case of a transfer to the Acquisition Company,

Purchaser shall procure (dafür einstehen) that the Acquisition Company complies correspondingly with the obligations set out

in this clause 4.11.

4.11.6. If a Business Employee whose Transferring Pension Assets (or the corresponding Transferring Pension Assets

Cash Amount) have already been transferred to the Purchaser CTA becomes an Objecting Employee, such employee shall, with retroactive effect

as of the Effective Date, be deemed not to be a Transferred Employee for the purposes of this clause. In such case, Purchaser shall procure

(dafür einstehen) that the Purchaser CTA and/or the Purchaser Trustee re-transfers to the Seller CTA (or, at Seller’s

election, to Seller) the Transferring Pension Assets (or the Transferring Pension Assets Cash Amount) attributable to such Objecting Employee,

together with surplus accrued thereon since the Effective Date, without undue delay (unverzüglich) after notification of the

objection. In addition, and by way of (partial) reversal of the purchase price deduction for the DBO Pension Amount, Purchaser shall pay

to Seller, without undue delay (unverzüglich), an amount equal to (i) the DBO Pension Amount attributable to such Objecting

Employee, less (ii) the Transferring Pension Assets (or the corresponding Transferring Pension Assets Cash Amount) attributable to such

Objecting Employee that are re-transferred to the Seller CTA (or, at Seller’s election, to Seller) pursuant to the preceding sentence,

in each case as determined by an independent actuary. The Parties shall issue all declarations necessary to effect such re-transfer; any

costs and taxes arising there from shall be split by the Parties.

4.11.7. If the Parties cannot agree on an independent actuary within four weeks after a Party has requested its

appointment, an independent actuary shall, upon request of either Party, be appointed by the competent Chamber of Industry and Commerce

(Industrie- und Handelskammer) at the registered seat of the Seller. The independent actuary shall act as an expert (Schiedsgutachter,

§§ 317 et seq. BGB) and not as an arbitrator; its determination shall be binding on the Parties save for manifest error (offenbare

Unrichtigkeit).

4.11.8. The Parties acknowledge that the Transferring Pension Assets can only be transferred to the Purchaser

CTA once the Non-PSV-Protected Portion have been determined. For this purpose, following the Effective Date, the actuary shall first prepare

the valuation of the Non-PSV-Protected Portion as of the Effective Date (expected to take approximately three weeks). The Transferring

Pension Assets shall be transferred to the Purchaser CTA without undue delay (unverzüglich) after such determination, with

economic effect as of the Effective Date and together with any returns accrued thereon since the Effective Date. For the avoidance of

doubt, no Transferring Pension Assets are required to be transferred to the Purchaser CTA on or as of the Effective Date itself, and the

transfer will instead be effected after the Effective Date in accordance with this clause.

4.11.9. Seller hereby represents, warrants and undertakes to Purchaser that as of Signing Date (i) all contributions,

premiums and other payments due in respect of the Retirement Benefit Plans have been duly and timely paid, (ii) there are no pending or

threatened claims, disputes, proceedings or investigations by any employee, beneficiary, regulatory authority or other third party in

relation to any Retirement Benefit Plan; (iii) no amendments, augmentations or improvements to the Retirement Benefit Plans have been

promised, announced or agreed (whether or not legally binding) and Seller has not exercised any discretionary power under the Retirement

Benefit Plans in a manner that could give rise to additional liabilities for Purchaser after the Effective Date other than as disclosed

in Exhibit 4.11.1; (iv) to the extent any Retirement Benefit Plan provides benefits exceeding the legally required minimum (e.g. under

collective agreements or individual commitments), such excess benefits are fully reflected in the DBO Pension Amount; (v) no Business

Employee has acquired pension entitlements by way of company practice (betriebliche Übung) or general undertaking (Gesamtzusage)

that are not reflected in Exhibit 4.11.1 and in the DBO Pension Amount; and (vi) Seller has at all times complied with the equal treatment

principle (Gleichbehandlungsgrundsatz) in relation to the Retirement Benefit Plans and no claims for equalization of benefits are

pending or threatened.

4.11.10. Seller shall indemnify and hold harmless Purchaser from and against any and all liabilities, losses, damages,

costs and expenses (including reasonable legal and actuarial fees) arising out of or in connection with (i) any breach of the representation

and warranty contained in clause 4.11.9, (ii) any Transferring Pension Liabilities that were not reflected in the DBO Pension Amount,

or (iii) any claims by employees or their beneficiaries in respect of Retirement Benefits to the extent such claims relate to periods

prior to the Effective Date and were not reflected in the DBO Pension Amount. This indemnity shall be subject to the de -minimis amounts

and thresholds (but not to the maximum amount pursuant to clause 14.4, second sentence) set forth in clause 14.

4.12. As of the Effective Date the personnel files of the Transferred Employees shall be provided by Seller

to Purchaser and the Acquisition Company (as the case may be) electronically and/or via hard-copy with due respect to the local laws and

regulations (e.g. regarding data protection) to the extent this is required to provide the relevant personnel files. Thereafter, Purchaser

will provide Seller with any information thereof which Seller requires to fulfill its obligations under any statutory laws and regulations.

In case of a transfer to the Acquisition Company, Purchaser shall procure (dafür einstehen) that the Acquisition Company complies

correspondingly with the obligations set out in the previous sentence.

5. Governmental Permits, Certificates and Authorizations

5.1. Purchaser agrees to be solely responsible for obtaining and holding, at its own cost and expense, all

governmental permits, certificates other authorizations (together the “Permits”) required for the continued operation

of the Business. Purchaser, or the Acquisition Company (as the case may be), shall promptly (as soon as legally possible) apply for such

Permits and bear all risks associated with any delays, denials, or conditions imposed by the relevant authorities. Any delay or failure

to obtain such approvals shall not entitle Purchaser or the Acquisition Company (as the case may be) to delay the performance of its obligations

under this Agreement or to terminate this Agreement, unless otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement.

5.2. Seller shall reasonably cooperate with Purchaser, or the Acquisition Company (as the case may be) by providing

any information or documentation in Seller’s possession necessary for Purchaser’s or the Acquisition Company’s (as the

case may be) application for the Permits. Such cooperation shall not require Seller to incur any additional costs (e.g. advisory fees)

or obligations or impose any liability on Seller for Purchaser’s or the Acquisition Company’s (as the case may be) ability

to obtain the required Permits.

5.3. Seller shall not be liable for any losses, costs, or damages incurred by Purchaser, or the Acquisition

Company (as the case may be) as a result of Purchaser’s or the Acquisition Company’s (as the case may be) inability or delay

in obtaining any Permits. Purchaser assumes all risks associated with the application process and any operational impact arising from

the lack of required Permits.

6. IT and Data Separation

6.1. Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that (i) the Business will be transferred without any information and

communications technologies, including hardware, software, networks, applications, systems or infrastructure (the “IT Environment”)

except if explicitly included in Exhibit 1.1.1(a) (and transitional services shall be subject to Exhibit 15d), (ii)

Purchaser will be responsible for (a) the set-up and operation of an IT Environment, (b) the integration of the Business in such IT Environment

and (c) obtaining any required software licenses or IT contracts and (iii) Seller shall not have any obligations in relation to, but shall

reasonably cooperate with Purchaser in the disentanglement, separation, migration or provision of an IT Environment or electronic data.

6.2. Seller shall (i) identify and extract the electronic data (operational, transactional and static data)

exclusively pertaining to the Business stored in Seller’s IT applications, systems or infrastructure, limited to data relating to

open transactions (i.e. excluding any historic data), (ii) extract selected standard reports relating to completed transactions with external

customers covering the period of the last 12 months prior to the Scheduled Closing Date and (iii) on the Scheduled Closing Date or at

the end of the duration of the transitional services agreement to be concluded (clause 15), as the case may be, hand over the respective

data to Purchaser, or the Acquisition Company (as the case may be), in a commonly readable format to be mutually agreed. The Parties,

and the Acquisition Company (as the case may be) shall cooperate in good faith to prepare and facilitate such hand-over and Purchaser

and the Acquisition Company (as the case may be) shall provide Seller with all support and information reasonably required in this respect.

The obligations of Seller under this clause 6.2 shall be limited to the hand-over of data files and a short explanation of the data

elements by using Seller’s standard extraction tools, and shall exclude any mapping, redefinition, or data migration activities.

Purchaser, or the Acquisition Company (as the case may be) shall grant Seller access to, and Seller may retain copies of, any data transferred

according to this clause 6.

7. Closing Date

7.1. The obligation of the Parties to carry out the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement

(the “Closing”) shall be subject to the satisfaction or (in accordance with clause 7.9.1) the waiver of the following

conditions to Closing (each a “Closing Condition” and together the “Closing Conditions”):

7.1.1. The acquisition of the Sold Assets (including the Assumed Agreements and the Assumed Liabilities) hereunder

is not restricted pursuant to section 4 (1) no. 4 and section 5 (2) of the German Foreign Trade Act (Aussenwirtschaftsgesetz - AWG)

in conjunction with section 59 (1) of the German Foreign Trade and Payments Ordinance (Aussenwirtschaftsverordnung - AWV). This

Closing Condition is fulfilled if:

(a) the German Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy (Bundesministerium für Wirtschaft

und Energie – BMWE) has issued a certificate of non-objection (Unbedenklichkeitsbescheinigung) pursuant to section 58

(1) sentence 1 AWV; or

(b) a certificate of non-objection is deemed to have been issued pursuant to section 58 (2) AWV because the

BMWE did not commence a formal investigation of the acquisition pursuant to section 55 AWV within a two month-period (pursuant to section

14a (1) no. 1 and (3) first sentence AWV) from receipt of the application for a certificate of non-objection pursuant to section 58 (1)

sentence 1 AWV; or

(d) a clearance certificate is deemed to have been issued pursuant to section 58a (2) 1st variant AWV because

the BMWE did not commence a formal investigation of the transaction pursuant to section 55 AWV within a two month-period (pursuant to

section 14a (1) no. 1 and (3) first sentence AWV) from the BMWE’s receipt of the application for a certificate of non-objection

pursuant to section 58 (1) AWV; or

(e) a clearance certificate is deemed to have been issued pursuant to section 58a (2) 2nd variant AWV because

the BMWE, despite having commenced a formal investigation of the transaction pursuant to section 55 AWV, has not prohibited the transaction

or issued orders (Anordnungen) or required assurances (Zusicherungen) in relation thereto pursuant to section 59 (1) AWV

within a four-month-period (pursuant to section 14a (1) no. 2 and/or (6) and (7) AWV) from the BMWE’s receipt of the documentation

required for review (as prescribed by section 14a (2) AWV); or

(f) after having commenced a formal investigation of the transaction pursuant to section 55 AWV (and prior

to the expiration of the four-month review period referenced in section 58a (2) 2nd variant AWV), the BMWE has issued an order (Anordnung)

or requires a binding assurance (Zusicherung) in relation to the transaction to secure certain public interests, to mitigate potential

negative effects of the transaction or otherwise to restrict certain business activities of the Purchaser connected to the transaction

without prohibiting the transaction entirely, provided that

i. the Purchaser shall use its best efforts to accept and comply with any such order or assurance;

ii. if the Purchaser does not wish to accept a proposed order or assurance, or wishes to propose modifications

thereto, the Purchaser shall promptly inform the Seller thereof and shall duly take into consideration any comments or concerns raised

by the Seller before responding to the BMWE; and

iii. the Purchaser shall keep the Seller fully informed of the content and status of any such order or assurance

without undue delay;

7.1.2. The implementation of the Reorganization by Seller;

7.1.3. No facts or circumstances shall have occurred between the Signing Date and the Scheduled Closing Date

which, individually or in the aggregate, constitute a Material Adverse Change. A “Material Adverse Change” shall mean

any fire, flood, earthquake, explosion, act of God, war, terrorist activity or other similar casualty event which directly causes severe

physical damage to the buildings, site infrastructure or essential fixed production facilities of the Metal Production Operations, with

the result that the Metal Production Operations cannot be resumed in all material respects within twelve (12) months after the Scheduled

Closing Date;

7.1.4. Purchaser having delivered to Seller (i) the executed Purchaser CTA trust documentation and (ii) a written

confirmation from an independent expert (a specialized pension/trust law firm and/or an independent actuary), that the Purchaser CTA secures

the Non-PSV-Protected Portion in respect of the Transferred Employees on terms and conditions no less favorable to the Transferred Employees

than those of the Seller CTA;

7.1.5. Purchaser, or the Acquisition Company (as the case may be), having ensured, with effect as of no later

than the Effective Date, that the Transferred Employees are covered by collective bargaining, either (i) by having acquired a membership

with collective bargaining commitment (“tarifgebundene Mitgliedschaft”) in “vbm – Verband der Bayerischen

Metall- und Elektro-Industrie e.V.”, such that the collective bargaining agreements of the Bavarian metal and electrical industry

apply to the Transferred Employees, or (ii) by having concluded a collective bargaining agreement with the competent trade union applicable

to the Transferred Employees, and Purchaser having delivered to Seller written evidence thereof;

7.1.6. Purchaser, or the Acquisition Company (as the case may be), having entered into, with effect as of no

later than the Effective Date, a binding agreement with the works council (Betriebsrat) of Seller competent for the Business Employees

(the “Works Council Agreement”)), and Purchaser having delivered to Seller written evidence thereof. The Works Council

Agreement shall provide that Purchaser, or the Acquisition Company (as the case may be), irrevocably (i) undertakes that the privilege

for newly established undertakings (Neugründungsprivileg, Section 112a para. 2 BetrVG) shall not apply with regard to the

Transferred Employees for a period of four years after the Effective Date, and (ii) undertakes, in respect of any operational change (Betriebsänderung)

implemented within that period which would fall within the scope of such privilege, to submit to a conciliation committee (Einigungsstelle)

and to recognize its decision on the establishment of a social plan (Sozialplan) as binding and enforceable (erzwingbar)

as if Section 112 paras. 4 and 5 BetrVG applied. This Closing Condition shall apply only if and to the extent the employment relationships

of the Transferred Employees pass to an Acquisition Company (or any other acquiring entity) that constitutes a newly established undertaking

within the meaning of Section 112a para. 2 BetrVG (in particular because its founding (Gründung) lies, or will lie, less than

four years before the Effective Date), so that such privilege could apply to operational changes (Betriebsänderungen) implemented

within four years after the Effective Date.

7.2. The Purchaser shall prepare and submit the FDI application required to satisfy the Closing Condition set

out in clause 7.1.1 without undue delay (unverzüglich) after the Signing Date and in any event not later than twenty (20)

Business Days after the Signing Date (unless applicable law requires an earlier filing).

7.3. The Purchaser shall keep the Seller fully informed of the status of the proceedings before the BMWE and

of the corresponding application and any subsequent submissions. In particular, the Purchaser shall:

7.3.1. prior to submitting the application or any subsequent material written or oral submission, agree with

the Seller on the contents of such;

7.3.2. regularly review with the Seller the progress of the application and keep the Seller promptly informed

as to the status and all material developments of the relevant proceedings;

7.3.3. without undue delay (unverzüglich) notify the Seller (and provide copies or, in the case of

non-written communications, details) of any material communication with the BMWE relating to the proceedings; and

7.3.4. unless explicitly requested otherwise by the BMWE, permit and use best efforts to ensure that the Seller

can attend all meetings and material calls with the BMWE and notify the Seller of any such meetings and calls sufficiently in advance.

7.4. Each Party shall promptly notify the other in writing upon satisfaction of a Closing Condition within

its responsibility, stating the date on which such satisfaction occurred.

7.5. The Closing shall take place either by electronic and remote methods or in person at the Premises in Schwabmünchen,

Germany, as agreed by the Parties in writing (e-mail sufficient), on the first Business Day of the month following the month in which

the Closing Conditions have been met, or, if the Closing Conditions are satisfied less than five Business Days before that first Business

Day, the Closing shall instead occur on the first Business Day of the second following month, or at any other time or place as the Parties

may mutually agree but not later than June 30, 2027 (the “Scheduled Closing Date”). The day on which Closing occurs

is referred to herein as the “Closing Date”. “Effective Date” shall be 00:00 hours CET of the first

calendar day of the month in which Closing occurs, provided, however, that if Closing occurs in January 2027, the Effective Date shall

be 00:00 hours CET of the second calendar day of January 2027 (and where this Agreement refers to time periods “after the Effective

Date”, this shall mean at, or after, 00:00:01 hours CET on the respective Effective Date).

7.6. On the Scheduled Closing Date, the Parties shall take, or cause to be taken, the following actions, which

shall be deemed taken simultaneously (Zug um Zug) (the “Closing Actions”):

7.6.1. Purchaser shall deliver to Seller the duly executed IBR in which the Expert concludes, as of the Closing

Date, that based on the business plan of the Purchaser, the Business (as continued by the Purchaser or the Acquisition Company, as the

case may be) would neither be illiquid (zahlungsunfähig) pursuant to Section 17 of the German Insolvency Code (InsO), nor

imminently illiquid (drohend zahlungsunfähig) pursuant to Section 18 InsO or over-indebted (überschuldet) pursuant

to Section 19 InsO and that, instead, the Business (as continued by the Purchaser or the Acquisition Company, as the case may be) would

maintain a going concern (positive Fortführungsprognose) during the entire planning period;

7.6.2. Purchaser shall deliver to Seller a duly executed support letter substantially in the form attached hereto

as Exhibit 7.6.2 pursuant to which the Purchaser has irrevocably and unilaterally undertaken towards the Seller and

the Acquisition Company to provide, directly or indirectly, the Acquisition Company with such funds necessary to ensure that the Acquisition

Company is fully financed (durchfinanziert) during the entire planning period and, upon request of the Seller, to fund or procure

the funding of such amounts immediately and without requiring any further conditions or evidence;

7.6.3. Seller shall transfer with effect in rem (mit dinglicher Wirkung) as of the Closing Date, and with

economic effect (mit wirtschaftlicher Wirkung) from and including the Effective Date, title to the Sold Assets (if and to the extent

legally transferable) as well as expectant rights (Anwartschaftsrechte) within the meaning of clause 1.1.3 and any rights

and claims within the meaning of clause 1.1.4 to Purchaser or to a company affiliated with Purchaser within the meaning of section 15

of the German Stock Corporation Act (Aktiengesetz) and to be determined by Purchaser no later than five (5) Business Days prior

to the Scheduled Closing Date (the “Acquisition Company”) and Purchaser, or the Acquisition Company (as the case may

be), shall assume the Assumed Liabilities and Assumed Agreements, in accordance with this Agreement (it being understood that Purchaser

will remain liable under this Agreement even if the Acquisition Company takes over the Business). For such purpose, the Parties or Seller

and the Acquisition Company, as the case may be, shall enter into a transfer and assumption agreement essentially as set out in Exhibit 7.6.3;

7.6.4. Seller shall further deliver the movable Sold Assets to Purchaser, or the Acquisition Company (as the

case may be) by way of hand-over or a substitute under applicable law, including handover of keys to premises to the extent relevant for

the Business;

7.6.5. Seller and Purchaser (or their affiliated companies, as the case may be) shall deliver to each other duly

executed copies of all agreements as set out in clause 15;

7.6.6. if the Preliminary Purchase Price is a negative amount, Seller shall pay the Preliminary Purchase Price

to Purchaser pursuant to clause 8.4; if the Preliminary Purchase Price is a positive amount, Purchaser shall pay the Preliminary Purchase

Price to Seller pursuant to clause 8.4;

7.6.7. Seller shall pay the Vendor Loan Amount pursuant to clauses 9.1 and 9.2; and

7.6.8. Seller shall deliver to Purchaser evidence that, in preparation of the negotiations with the works council

regarding the Employee Reduction, (i) Seller has provided the works council with an information package regarding the intended measure,

setting out, in particular, the nature and scope of the intended measure, (ii) Seller has offered the works council dates for negotiations

on a reconciliation of interests, a social plan and a voluntary leaver program, and (iii) Seller has provided the works council with first

drafts of a reconciliation of interests, a social plan and a voluntary leaver program. Such evidence shall be provided by delivery of

copies of the respective documents together with proof of their transmission to the works council (e.g., cover letter, e-mail correspondence

or acknowledgment of receipt).

7.7. Seller and Purchaser shall confirm in a written document, to be jointly executed, that all Closing Conditions

have been fulfilled or waived and that all Closing Actions have been taken or waived and that Closing has occurred (the “Closing

Confirmation”). The Closing Confirmation shall be substantially in the form of the draft attached hereto as Exhibit 7.7.

For the avoidance of doubt, the execution of the Closing Confirmation shall serve as evidence that all Closing Conditions and Closing

Actions have been taken or waived and that Closing has occurred, but the execution of the Closing Confirmation shall not limit or prejudice

the rights of the Parties under this Agreement.

7.8. The benefits and charges associated with the Sold Assets and the risk of damage or loss shall pass to

Purchaser with effect (subject to the provisions contained in this Agreement) from and including the Effective Date.

7.9. Waiver

7.9.1. The Seller and the Purchaser may jointly, at any time, waive, in whole or in part, any of the Closing

Conditions or Closing Actions by written agreement, except for the Closing Condition set out in clause 7.1.1.

7.9.2. Any waiver of a Closing Action shall be limited to the exemption from the requirement to duly perform

such Closing Action at the relevant time, and shall neither affect the underlying obligation to perform such Closing Action nor any rights

or claims of the waiving Party in respect of circumstances relating to the non-performance of such Closing Action which remain outstanding.

7.10. Withdrawal from this Agreement

7.10.1. Subject to the following provisions, each Party shall have the right to withdraw from (zurücktreten)

this Agreement by written notice to the other Party:

(a) if the Closing Conditions have not been satisfied or waived in accordance with clause 7.9.1 by June

30, 2027; or

(b) if (i) the Seller has failed to complete the Closing Actions set out in clause 7.6.6 and 7.6.8 or

(ii) the Purchaser has failed to complete the Closing Actions set out in clauses 7.6.1 and 7.6.2 within ten (10) Business Days after

the respective due date, provided that no effective waiver of the relevant Closing Action has been agreed;

provided, however,

that a Party shall not be entitled to withdraw from this Agreement if it is responsible for the failure to satisfy a Closing Condition

or to perform a Closing Action or otherwise in breach of this Agreement and such breach has caused the right to withdraw under this clause 7.10.

7.10.2. A withdrawal pursuant to clause 7.10.1(b) shall only be effective if the relevant notice of withdrawal

is received by the other Party prior to the performance of the relevant Closing Action.

7.10.3. Upon withdrawal from this Agreement in accordance with clause 7.10.1:

(a) all rights and obligations under this Agreement shall cease, except for this clause 7.10 and those

provisions which by their nature are intended to survive withdrawal (including, without limitation, clause 17 (Notices/Miscellaneous)

(the “Surviving Provisions”), which shall remain in full force and effect;

(b) no Party shall have any claims against the other Party, except for (i) claims arising from a breach of

this Agreement prior to withdrawal and (ii) claims under the Surviving Provisions;

and fifty thousand Euro) as liquidated damages if the withdrawal results from a failure by the Purchaser to perform the Closing Actions

referred to in clause 7.6.1 or 7.6.2.

7.10.4. Following Closing, any withdrawal from this Agreement shall be excluded.

8. Purchase Price

8.1. The purchase price for the Business shall be the aggregate of:

8.1.1. a fixed amount of EUR minus 18,000,000.00 (in words: minus eighteen million Euro);

8.1.2. plus the Transferring Pension Assets;

8.1.3. minus the DBO Pension Amount and Provision for Partial Retirement Benefits, subject to clause 4.11.6;

Date on the basis of the Effective Date Statement exceeds EUR 3,875,000 (in words: three million and eight hundred seventy five thousand

Euro);

8.1.6. minus the amount, if any, by which the Working Capital of the Business on the Effective Date on the basis

of the Effective Date Statement falls below EUR 3,875,000 (in words: three million and eight hundred seventy five thousand Euro)

(the “Purchase

Price”). “Working Capital” shall mean any of the items identified as “Working Capital” in Exhibit

8.1, calculated in accordance with the Relevant Accounting Principles.

8.2. Nature of the Purchase Price; No Gross-Up. The Parties agree that the amount stated in clause 8.1.1

reflects the overall negative fair market value of the Business transferred under this Agreement, taking into account the assets, liabilities,

obligations, risks, expected losses, restructuring requirements and other burdens pertaining to the Business, and is not intended to constitute

consideration for any separate service of the Purchaser. For the avoidance of doubt, Seller shall not be obliged to gross up, indemnify

or otherwise compensate Purchaser for any corporate income tax, trade tax or similar Tax arising at the level of Purchaser from or in

connection with the receipt or recognition of the Purchase Price.

8.3. Payments; Accounts. All payments owed to Purchaser under this Agreement shall be paid free of costs

and charges in immediately available funds by wire transfer to the bank account which shall be notified by Purchaser to Seller in writing

no later than five (5) Business Days prior to the relevant due payment date (the “Purchaser’s Account”). All

payments owed to Seller under this Agreement shall be paid free of costs and charges in immediately available funds by wire transfer to

the bank account which shall be notified by Seller to Purchaser in writing no later than five (5) Business Days prior to the relevant

due payment date (the “Seller’s Account”).

8.4. Preliminary Purchase Price. Not less than five (5) Business Days prior to the Scheduled Closing

Date, Seller shall deliver to Purchaser an estimated balance sheet of the Business containing an estimate of the Sold Assets, Working

Capital, Transferring Pension Assets, DBO Pension Amount and Provision for Partial Retirement Benefits as of the Effective Date (herein

“Preliminary Effective Date Balance Sheet”). Not less than five (5) Business Days prior to the Scheduled Closing Date,

Seller shall deliver to Purchaser Seller’s good faith estimate of the Purchase Price (the “Preliminary Purchase Price”),

including an estimate of the amount of Working Capital, Transferring Pension Assets, DBO Pension Amount and Provision for Partial Retirement

Benefits of the Business as of the Effective Date; such estimates of the Preliminary Effective Date Balance Sheet and Preliminary Purchase

Price to be accompanied by the calculation methodology / logic and to be substantially in the form as attached hereto as Exhibit

8.5. Final Purchase Price; True-Up. Within ten (10) Business Days upon final determination of the Purchase

Price in accordance with clauses 8.6 below on the basis of the Effective Date Statement (herein “Final Purchase Price”),

the following shall apply:

8.5.1. If (i) the Preliminary Purchase Price was a negative amount (and thus was paid by Seller to Purchaser

pursuant to clause 7.6.6) and the Final Purchase Price is a higher negative amount, or (ii) the Preliminary Purchase Price was a positive

amount (and thus was paid by Purchaser to Seller pursuant to clause 7.6.6) and the Final Purchase Price is a lower positive amount than

the Preliminary Purchase Price or a negative amount, Seller shall pay to Purchaser an amount equal to the difference between the Preliminary

Purchase Price and the Final Purchase Price in cash into Purchaser’s Account; or

8.5.2. If (i) the Preliminary Purchase Price was a positive amount (and thus was paid by Purchaser to Seller

pursuant to clause 7.6.6) and the Final Purchase Price is a higher positive amount, or (ii) the Preliminary Purchase Price was a negative

amount (and thus was paid by Seller to Purchaser pursuant to clause 7.6.6) and the Final Purchase Price is a lower negative amount than

the Preliminary Purchase Price or a positive amount, Purchaser shall pay to Seller an amount equal to the difference between the Preliminary

Purchase Price and the Final Purchase Price in cash into Seller’s Account.

8.6. Within thirty (30) Business Days after the Closing Date, Seller shall prepare and deliver to Purchaser

a balance sheet of the Business, containing the Sold Assets, Working Capital, Transferring Pension Assets, DBO Pension Amount and Provision

for Partial Retirement Benefits as of the Effective Date (but subject to the last sentence of this clause 8.6) (herein “Effective

Date Balance Sheet”). Exhibit 8.6(i) contains an abstract example of the Effective Date Balance Sheet. On the

basis of the Effective Date Balance Sheet, Seller shall prepare and deliver to Purchaser together with the Effective Date Balance Sheet

a statement (herein “Effective Date Statement”) of (i) the amount of Working Captal of the Business as of the Effective

Date, (ii) the Transferring Pension Assets, DBO Pension Amount and Provision for Partial Retirement Benefits and (iii) the amount of the

Purchase Price, each of (i) through (iii) as determined in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, such statement to be in all material

aspects in the form as attached hereto as Exhibit 8.6(ii). The Parties acknowledge and agree that, if the Effective Date

is the second calendar day of January 2027, any changes, differences and developments of whichever kind between December 31, 2026, 24:00

hours CET and January 2, 2027, 00:00 hours CET shall be deemed completely irrelevant and negligible for the Effective Date Balance Sheet

and the calculation of the Purchase Price.

8.7. The actuarial assumptions applied in the Effective Date Statement for the calculation of the DBO Pension

Amount shall be identical to those set out in Exhibit 4.11.2 and shall not be modified unilaterally by Seller. Any deviation from the

agreed actuarial assumptions shall require Purchaser’s prior written consent. The Effective Date Statement shall separately show

any adjustment to the DBO Pension Amount or the Transferring Pension Assets in respect of any Objecting Employee pursuant to clause 4.7.

If Purchaser disagrees with the DBO Pension Amount, the Transferring Pension Assets or any other pension-related item as set out in the

Effective Date Statement, Purchaser shall notify Seller in writing of its objections within twenty (20) Business Days after receipt of

the Effective Date Statement, specifying in reasonable detail the items in dispute and the amounts claimed by Purchaser. If the Parties

are unable to resolve any such dispute within a further twenty (20) Business Days, either Party may refer the disputed items to an independent

actuary to be appointed in accordance with clause 4.11.7. The determination of the independent actuary shall be final and binding on both

Parties, absent manifest error (offenbare Unrichtigkeit). The costs of the independent actuary shall be borne by the Party whose

position deviates more substantially from the actuary’s determination. Pending resolution of any dispute under this clause, the

undisputed portions of the Purchase Price adjustment shall be paid in accordance with clause 8.3, and Seller shall, within ten (10) Business

Days of the independent actuary’s final determination, pay to Purchaser (or Purchaser shall pay to Seller, as the case may be) the

remaining adjustment amount.

8.8. The Effective Date Balance Sheet shall be prepared based on a going concern assumption and in line with

past practice within the ams OSRAM group, in accordance with applicable laws and with the following accounting principles, provided that

in case of any differences between such accounting principles and past practice, past practice shall prevail:

8.8.1. The accounting policies, principles, practices, evaluation rules and procedures, methods and bases (in

particular as the same relates to management judgment principles) which are reflected in the ams OSRAM Financial Reporting Guidelines

as applicable on the Signing Date which have been made available to Purchaser prior to the Signing Date and as amended by any newly issued

and implemented accounting pronouncements which become effective prior to the Effective Date and are applicable to Seller and all other

ams OSRAM Group Companies (the “Applicable Accounting Principles”, attached hereto as Exhibit 8.8.1)

shall apply to the extent they are in line with the International Financial Reporting Standards, as issued by the International Accounting

Standards Board and as adopted by the European Union (“IFRS”).

8.8.2. To the extent (i) the ams OSRAM Financial Reporting Guidelines are not in line with IFRS, or (ii) a certain

accounting policy, principle, practice, rule, procedure or method is not covered by the ams OSRAM Financial Reporting Guidelines, IFRS

as applicable on the Signing Date shall apply.

8.8.3. The following specific accounting principles shall apply and shall, as far as they are relevant, take

precedence over the ams OSRAM Financial Reporting Guidelines, IFRS and past practice:

(a) there shall be no impairment of assets or recognition and/or change in liabilities, provisions, or any

other obligations triggered by the change of control in the Business because of the transaction;

(b) no provision shall be made on account of customers of the Business exercising any rights they may enjoy

due to the change of control having occurred in the course of the transaction;

any other ams OSRAM Group Company shall be treated as if these entities were third parties;

(d) post-balance sheet effects shall not be considered in the Effective Date Balance Sheet to Purchaser; and

(e) for the purposes of determining the Working Capital, the formation of provisions and the activation of

recourse claims against third parties shall equally require that the potential liability or claim, respectively, exists with a probability

of at least 50% (in words: fifty percent)

(herein collectively

“Specific Accounting Principles”).

The Applicable Accounting

Principles, the IFRS and the Specific Accounting Principles are herein collectively referred to as “Relevant Accounting Principles”.

8.8.4. If Purchaser disagrees with the Effective Date Statement, Purchaser shall notify Seller in writing of

its objections within twenty (20) Business Days after receipt of the Effective Date Statement, specifying in reasonable detail the items

in dispute and the amounts claimed by Purchaser. If the Parties are unable to resolve any such dispute within a further twenty (20) Business

Days, either Party may refer the disputed items to an independent account to be appointed in same manner as the independent actuary in

clause 4.11.7. Seller shall provide Purchaser with all supporting documentation, workpapers, actuarial reports and other information reasonably

requested by Purchaser to verify the accuracy and completeness of the Effective Date Statement. With regard to pension obligations the

Purchaser shall have the right to appoint an independent actuary to examine the records. If the independent actuary determines that the

DBO Pension Amount has been understated or the Transferring Pension Assets have been overstated, Seller shall pay to Purchaser the difference

within ten (10) Business Days of such determination, without prejudice to any other rights of Purchaser under this Agreement.

9. Vendor Loan

9.1. Subject to occurrence of Closing, Seller hereby grants a vendor loan in the aggregate total amount of

EUR 2,500,000 (in words: two million five hundred thousand Euro; “Vendor Loan Amount“). The Vendor Loan Amount

shall bear no interest.

9.2. Seller shall pay to Purchaser the Vendor Loan Amount pursuant to clause 7.6.7 in addition to and separate

from the Preliminary Purchase Price on the Scheduled Closing Date.

9.3. Purchaser shall repay the Vendor Loan Amount in two (2) equal instalments within twelve (12) months following

the Effective Date. The first instalment shall become due and payable at the lapse of six (6) months following the Effective Date, the

second and final instalment shall become due and payable at the lapse of twelve (12) months following the Effective Date.

10. VAT and other Tax Liabilities

10.1. The Parties assume and agree that the transfer of the Business contemplated by this Agreement constitutes

a transfer of a business or a separately managed part of a business as a going concern (Geschäftsveräußerung im Ganzen)

within the meaning of section 1 para. 1a of the German VAT Act (Umsatzsteuergesetz) and is therefore not subject to German VAT.

The Parties further acknowledge that the assets, agreements, liabilities, employees and other elements transferred or made available to

the Purchaser under this Agreement will be sold, assumed, transferred or otherwise made available to the Purchaser (under this Agreement)

solely for the purpose of enabling the Purchaser to continue operating the Business as an economically independent activity.

10.2. The Purchaser represents and warrants, and undertakes vis-à-vis the Seller, that it acquires the

Business as an entrepreneur for its business within the meaning of the German VAT Act, that it intends to continue the Business, or the

essential operational activities thereof, and that it has no intention to immediately cease, liquidate or merely sell off the Business

or its material assets. The Purchaser shall not take, or omit to take, any action within its control which would cause the transfer of

the Business not to qualify as a Geschäftsveräußerung im Ganzen within the meaning of section 1 para. 1a of the

German VAT Act.

10.3. The Parties further agree that any amount payable by the Seller to the Purchaser as Purchase Price, restructuring

compensation or similar balancing payment under this Agreement forms part of the overall economic arrangement for the transfer of the

Business and reflects, in particular, the negative enterprise value, liabilities, obligations, expected losses, restructuring requirements

and other economic burdens pertaining to the Business. Such amount (or portions thereof) shall not be treated by the Parties as consideration

for a separate supply of goods or services by the Purchaser to the Seller, unless and to the extent a final and binding VAT assessment

notice requires a different treatment. Purchaser shall not assert any VAT treatment deviating from the treatment set out in this clause

10.3 without prior consultation with Seller and without providing reasonable supporting evidence that such deviating treatment is required

under mandatory applicable VAT law or by a final and binding VAT assessment notice.

10.4. Except as expressly provided otherwise in this Agreement, all amounts payable under or in connection with

this Agreement are exclusive of VAT. If and to the extent VAT is legally due and payable by the respective supplying Party on any supply

(or service) made by it to the other Party (hereinafter: recipient party) under or in connection with this Agreement, the recipient Party

shall pay to the supplying Party an amount equal to such VAT in addition to the relevant net amount within ten (10) Business Days after

receipt of an invoice as set out immediately below, provided that (i) the supplying Party has issued a proper invoice in accordance with

sections 14 et seq. of the German VAT Act and (ii) such VAT is legally owed by the supplying Party. In any case and to the extent

legally possible, the recipient Party may fulfill its obligation by assigning its claim for an input VAT tax refund to the supplying Party

in the form prescribed by law (§ 46 AO); any interest, penalties, late-payment surcharges or similar ancillary tax charges resulting

from or in connection with VAT shall be borne by the Party whose act, omission, delay, incorrect invoice, incorrect VAT treatment or failure

to cooperate has caused such interest, penalties, surcharges or charges. To the extent the cause cannot be allocated to one Party, such

amounts shall be borne by the Parties in proportion to their respective responsibility; only where no such allocation is possible shall

such amounts be borne equally by the Parties Should VAT be legally owed by the recipient Party under pertinent VAT rules, the supplying

Party shall issue the recipient Party likewise a proper invoice in accordance with the said provisions. Nothing in this clause 10.4. shall

be construed as having any influence on the purchase price.

10.5. The Parties acknowledge and agree that the VAT treatment described in this clause 10.5 relates only

to the transfer of the Business under this Agreement. Any agreements entered into pursuant to clause 15, including the framework contract

manufacturing agreement, project agreements, equipment transfer agreements, lease agreement and transitional services agreement, shall

be assessed separately for VAT purposes in accordance with their respective terms and the applicable VAT rules, unless (to the extent)

such agreements (and the execution and consummation thereof by the Parties) form part of the transfer of the Business under pertinent

VAT rules. Nothing in this clause 10 shall be construed as causing any supplies under such agreements to be treated as part of the

non-taxable transfer of the Business, unless and to the extent pertinent VAT rules requires otherwise.

10.6. The Parties shall cooperate in good faith in relation to any VAT treatment of the transactions contemplated

by this Agreement, including by providing information reasonably required for VAT purposes, preserving and making available documentation

evidencing the transfer and continuation of the Business, issuing or correcting invoices where legally required, and taking reasonable

steps to avoid or mitigate any VAT cost (including, for the avoidance of doubt, using reasonable efforts to agree on the appropriate procedural

approach, including, where appropriate, objections, appeals, invoice corrections, amended VAT returns or applications for binding information

or rulings), provided that no Party shall be required to conduct proceedings or take any action that would be inconsistent with applicable

law or materially prejudice its own tax position. For a period of twenty-four (24) months following the Effective Date, Purchaser shall,

upon Seller’s reasonable request, provide reasonable evidence of the continuation of the Business, including information on the

operational use of the Sold Assets, Transferred Employees, Assumed Agreements and Assumed Liabilities, in each case to the extent reasonably

required to support the VAT treatment under this clause 10 and subject to applicable law and confidentiality obligations.

10.7. The Parties acknowledge that the acquisition of the Business under this Agreement may give rise to a statutory

liability of the Purchaser as acquirer of a business (Betriebsübernehmer) pursuant to section 75 AO for taxes and ancillary

tax obligations (steuerliche Nebenleistungen) of the Seller attributable to the Business (herein “Pre-Closing Tax Liabilities”).

In addition to clause 3.2.4, Pre-Closing Tax Liabilities shall constitute Excluded Liabilities. The Purchaser shall not assume any liability

for any taxes, social security contributions, other public charges or ancillary tax obligations (including interest, surcharges, penalties

and late-payment surcharges) relating to the Business or the Sold Assets which arose or became due prior to the Effective Date, except

to the extent reflected expressly assumed as Assumed Liabilities.

10.7.1. Seller shall, without undue delay (unverzüglich) after the Signing Date, request from the

competent tax office (Finanzamt) a tax clearance certificate (steuerliche Unbedenklichkeitsbescheinigung) confirming that

no tax arrears exist which could give rise to a liability of the Purchaser under section 75 AO (the “Tax Clearance Certificate”).

Seller shall use

its best efforts to obtain the Tax Clearance Certificate prior to the Closing Date and shall keep the Purchaser informed about the status

of the application. If the Tax Clearance Certificate discloses outstanding Pre-Closing Tax Liabilities, Seller shall, at its own cost,

satisfy such liabilities prior to the Closing Date or provide security reasonably acceptable to Purchaser considering the amount of the

liability (e.g. escrow deposit or bank guarantee).

10.7.2. Seller shall indemnify and hold harmless (freistellen und schadlos halten) Purchaser from any Pre-Closing

Tax Liabilities under section 75 AO and all liabilities, losses, damages (excluding any lost profits) and external costs, including any

249 et seq. BGB, in particular section 254 BGB, shall apply mutatis mutandis in respect of such liabilities,

losses etc., and (ii) the said advisory fees have been incurred with Seller’s prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld,

conditioned or delayed) or are necessary to meet mandatory procedural deadlines. Any payment claim of the Purchaser under this clause

10.7 shall become due and payable only once the relevant liability notice (Haftungsbescheid) has become final and non-appealable

(bestandskräftig) or Purchaser had to pay such liabilities by request of the tax authorities at an earlier date, unless the

Seller has agreed in writing to an earlier settlement

The Purchaser shall

notify the competent tax authority of the commencement of business operations within the meaning of section 138 (1) AO within one (1)

month after the Closing Date and shall furnish the Seller with appropriate evidence of such notification.

The limitations

on Seller’s liability set forth in clauses 14.3, 14.4 (de-minimis and maximum liability amount of Seller) and 14.5 (time limitations)

shall not apply to claims under this clause 10.7. Claims under this clause 10.7 shall be time-barred six (6) months after the relevant

liability notice (Haftungsbescheid) has become final and non-appealable (bestandskräftig), but in no event later than

five (5) years after the Closing Date. The applicable limitation period shall not be suspended in accordance with section 203 BGB.

10.7.3. Seller shall, upon request, provide Purchaser with all information regarding the tax affairs of the Business

for periods prior to the Effective Date to the extent necessary to assess or defend against any liability under section 75 AO. In the

event any tax authority asserts a claim against the Purchaser under section 75 AO, the Purchaser shall promptly notify the Seller. Seller

shall, at its own cost, be entitled to assume the defense of such claim, including the submission of objections (Einspruch) and

the conduct of any administrative or court proceedings. The Purchaser shall not acknowledge, settle or pay any such claim without the

Seller’s prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld). For the avoidance of doubt, clauses 14.6 and 14.7 shall apply,

unless (to the extent) not otherwise provided for in this clause 10.7.3.

Agreement shall have the meanings attributed to them in the Asset Purchase Agreement and

all definitions set forth in the Asset Purchase Agreement shall also apply for the purposes

of this Agreement. In the event of a conflict between this Agreement and the Asset Pur-chase

Agreement or in the event of a gap (Regelungslücke), the terms and condi-tions

of the Asset Purchase Agreement shall prevail.

1.2. Closing

Date and Effective Date Closing Date as used in this Agreement shall be the date hereof.

Effective Date as used in this Agreement shall be [].

2. Assignment of Sold Assets and Transfer of

Title and Possession

2.1. Assignment

of Sold Assets and Transfer of Title Transferor hereby assigns and transfers to Transferee

with effect in rem (mit din-glicher Wirkung) as of the Closing Date and with economic

effect (mit wirtschaft-licher Wirkung) as of the Effective Date, and Transferee hereby

accepts such as-signment and transfer, title to all of the Sold Assets which are contained

in Exhib-its 1.1.1 (a) and 1.1.1 (b) as well as the other Sold Assets referred to in section

1 of the Asset Purchase Agreement (including, for the avoidance of doubt, Transferor’s

expectant rights (Anwartschaftsrechte) (clause 1.1.3 of the Asset Purchase Agree-ment)

and Transferor’s rights and claims in connection with the Sold Assets as fur-ther specified

in clause 1.1.4 of the Asset Purchase Agreement). The assignment and transfer of title to

the Sold Assets do not include any of the assets belonging to the Excluded Assets as defined

in clause 1.1.2 of the Asset Purchase Agreement.

2.2. Transfer

of Possession Transferor hereby grants to Transferee possession (Besitz) to the movable

Sold As-sets pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement (clause 1.1.1 (a), (b) and (f) of the

Asset Purchase Agreement), including the keys to premises to the extent relevant for the

Business. The transfer of possession shall be effected by Transferor deliver-ing the movable

Sold Assets to Transferee (it being understood that if the Sold As-sets are already situated

in the Premises leased by Transferee, the transfer of pos-session shall be deemed to have

occurred when Transferee assumes possession of the Sold Assets). If and to the extent that

Transferee does not take direct possession (unmittelbarer Besitz) of any movable Sold

Assets on the Effective Date, the Parties hereby agree that Transferor shall, as from the

Effective Date, hold those movable Sold Assets in safe custody as agent (Besitzmittler)

for and on behalf of Transferee and shall deal with such movable Sold Assets in accordance

with the reasonable instructions received from Transferee. If and to the extent that Transferor

is not in actual possession of any movable Sold Assets on the Effective Date, Transferor

hereby assigns to Transferee any and all claims against the respective possessor for delivery

(Herausgabeansprüche) of such movable Sold Assets.

Exhibit 7.6.3-2

3. Assumption of Agreements, Business Relationships

and Liabilities

3.1. Transferor

hereby transfers and Transferee hereby assumes from Transferor by way of assumption of contract

with full discharge of the original debtor (im Wege der befreienden Vertragsübernahme)

with effect as of the Effective Date the Assumed Agreements as specified in Exhibit 2.1,

however, with the exception of those other agreements pertaining to the Excluded Agreements

as defined in clause 2.1 of the Asset Purchase Agreement.

3.2. Transferor

hereby transfers and Transferee hereby assumes from Transferor by way of assumption of debt

with full discharge of the original debtor (im Wege der be-freienden Schuldübernahme)

of the Asset Purchase Agreement, however with the exception of the Excluded Liabilities as

defined in clause 3.2 of the Asset Pur-chase Agreement, in particular without any liabilities

relating to the purchase orders listed in Exhibit 3.2.1 of the Asset Purchase Agreement.

under or in connection with this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other

Party.

4.3. Each

Party shall keep confidential and not disclose to any third party the content of this Agreement

and any business and trade secrets and other confidential infor-mation regarding the other

Party disclosed to it in connection with this Agreement or its implementation, except as

expressly agreed upon with the other Party. Any press releases and other public communication

in connection with this Agreement shall require the prior consent of the respective other

Party. Notwithstanding the above, each Party may disclose any information as required in

order to comply with applicable law or an enforceable order of a court or public authority.

4.4. Any

amendment or supplement to this Agreement and any waiver of a right here-under must be made

by written instrument duly executed by the Parties, unless a stricter form is required by

law. The foregoing provisions shall also apply with re-spect to a waiver of the requirement

of the written form pursuant to this subsection.

4.5. This

Agreement contains the entire agreement between the Parties with respect to the subject matter

hereof; no side agreements have been entered into.

Exhibit 7.6.3-3

4.6. No

provision of this Agreement is intended to confer any rights or remedies upon any person

or entity other than the Parties.

4.7. This

Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the Federal Republic of Germany excluding the

4.8. Any

disputes under or in connection with this Agreement (including those regard-ing its validity)

of Arbitration e.V. (DIS) in the version effective at the com-mencement of the arbitration

proceedings without recourse to the ordinary courts of law. The arbitral tribunal shall consist

of three arbitrators. The place of the arbi-tration proceedings shall be Munich. The language

are an integral part of this Agreement and any reference to this Agreement includes this

Agreement and the exhibits as a whole.

4.10. Should

any provision of this Agreement, or any provision incorporated into this Agreement in the

future, be or become invalid or unenforceable, the validity or en-forceability of the other

provisions of this Agreement shall not be affected thereby. The same shall apply if this

Agreement turns out to be incomplete (in particular as a result of the Parties’ unintended

failure to contemplate an issue). The invalid or unenforceable provision shall be deemed

to be substituted by, and, in order to fill the gap, the Parties shall be deemed to have

agreed upon, a suitable and equitable provision which, to the extent legally permissible,

comes closest to the purpose of the invalid or enforceable provision or to the presumed intent

of the Parties if had they considered the matter.

Receiver, the Service Provider shall Process such personal data only on the documented instructions of the relevant Service Receiver,

Exhibit 99.1

September 8, 2026

The Elmet Group Co. Signs Agreement to Acquire

ams OSRAM Schwabmünchen

Metal Production Operations, Establishing European Manufacturing Footprint for

Tungsten and Molybdenum Components

Acquisition Expected to Expand Global Production Capabilities for Critical Refractory Metal Products

PORTLAND, Maine – The Elmet Group Co. (“Elmet,” the

“Company,” “we,” or “our”) (NASDAQ: ELMT), a U.S.-based provider of precision-engineered components

and advanced high-energy systems, today announced that it has signed a definitive agreement under which its newly formed German subsidiary,

Elmet Technologies GmbH, will acquire the assets of ams OSRAM’s tungsten and molybdenum manufacturing operations in Schwabmünchen,

Bavaria, Germany.

The transaction will establish Elmet’s first manufacturing footprint

in the European Union for refractory metals and create a European production base for tungsten and molybdenum powder, rods, wire, electrodes,

and machined components. The closing is expected to take place in the first quarter of 2027, subject to customary regulatory approvals

and following the completion of transition activities required to operate the Schwabmünchen facility on a standalone basis.

In operation since 1961, the Schwabmünchen site is a fully integrated

tungsten and molybdenum manufacturing operation, covering a production value chain that includes powder formation through pressing, sintering,

swaging, drawing, and finishing. It is supported by an on-site materials laboratory specializing in chemical and physical analysis. The

site operates with a production environment recognized for its digital innovation in the European refractory metals industry, validated

by the 2024 Germany Smart Digitization Factory 4.0 award.

“We are excited to welcome the talented Schwabmünchen team

to Elmet and build on the expertise and capabilities they have developed over many decades,” said Peter V. Anania, CEO and Chairman

of the Board at The Elmet Group Co. “We expect this acquisition to extend our vertically integrated tungsten and molybdenum platform

into Europe, giving us a production base to serve customers there directly. It is intended to advance one of our key post-IPO objectives

of expanding our footprint in Europe. This is a natural next step in our long-term growth strategy, and by establishing a local presence,

we believe we can better serve the needs of European and UK customers with greater speed and reliability. We are confident the acquisition

will position us to deepen relationships with customers across the region.”

A Local-for-Local Platform to Secure Tungsten and Molybdenum for

the European Market

The Critical Materials Components Division of The Elmet Group Co. currently

operates its U.S.-owned refractory metals manufacturing facilities in Maine, Ohio, and Michigan. All of its production sites are vertically

integrated with control over the metallurgy process from powder through pressing, sintering, forming, and machining. The acquisition of

the ams OSRAM Schwabmünchen operation is anticipated to extend this model into Germany and the broader European market.

The Company views the transaction as a way to better serve evolving

customer requirements in critical materials across a range of demanding applications, including:

● Defense. European defense prime contractors are rebuilding supply

chains under sovereignty and security-of-supply requirements that increasingly cannot be satisfied by non-European Union or Asian sources.

Tungsten is a designated European Union critical raw material with limited European processing capacity.

● Fusion and high-energy research. Tungsten is the reference plasma-facing

material for fusion programs. Elmet currently serves this market through both its Critical Materials Components and Engineered Microwave

Products Divisions.

● Semiconductor. EUV lithography, MOCVD processing, and thermal process

hardware, including tungsten hexafluoride (WF6) used in CVD tungsten deposition, all require materials and components produced

to tight specification.

● Automotive, medical, and industrial. Lighting, X-ray and imaging,

glass melting electrodes, high-temperature furnace components, welding and thermal spray, and precision wire applications across the European

industrial base utilize refractory metals.

“From powder through finished component, the Schwabmünchen

operations are expected to provide our defense, fusion, semiconductor, medical, and industrial customers a European source for tungsten

and molybdenum. We look forward to building on their foundation and integrating the site’s talent and capabilities into the broader

Elmet organization,” said Derek Fox, President of the Critical Materials Components Division of The Elmet Group Co.

Strengthening the Foundation at Schwabmünchen

Elmet plans to retain the existing Schwabmünchen leadership and

operating team as it advances the Company’s European expansion. The Company plans to invest in the workforce, equipment base, capacity,

quality systems, and commercial capabilities of the Schwabmünchen site. The Company also intends to collaborate with the works council,

the IG Metall union, and the local community to bolster and develop the workforce and provide secure, skilled manufacturing jobs in the

region.

The Company also intends to expand the range of materials produced

at the site, including TZM and tungsten heavy alloy, supported by planned investment in infrastructure, equipment, and facility upgrades

needed to support their production.

“Schwabmünchen has a long history of technical excellence

in tungsten and molybdenum manufacturing. I am happy that our great team from Schwabmünchen will become part of Elmet, an organization

committed to carrying this legacy forward through its people and capabilities. Together with Elmet, the Schwabmünchen team will seek

to build on this foundation, support our customers, and create new opportunities in the years ahead,” said Rainer Barthel, Managing

Director of OSRAM GmbH.

Continuity for Existing Customers

To help safeguard supply continuity through the transition, Elmet Technologies

GmbH will support ams OSRAM and a recent spinoff under production agreements covering the products each currently sources from the site.

Existing external customers are intended to be served without interruption, with Elmet assuming supply, quality, and technical support

responsibilities upon Closing. The Company plans to establish and develop external sales alongside a more robust digital commercial presence

to strengthen its customer base across critical European industries, with a pipeline focused on defense, fusion research, semiconductor,

medical, automotive, and general industrial applications.
