Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On July 1, 2026, Good Fortune Supermarket of San
Gabriel, LP (“GF San Gabriel”), a California limited partnership that is 91% owned by Maison Solutions Inc. (the “Company”),
and Good Fortune Supermarket of Monrovia, LP (“GF Monrovia” and, together with GF San Gabriel, the “Sellers”),
a California limited partnership that is 85.25% owned by the Company, entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Asset Purchase
Agreement”) with ENSON MARKET 33 SAN GABRIEL CA INC and ENSON MARKET 34 MONROVIA CA INC (together the “Buyers”). Pursuant
to the Asset Purchase Agreement, the Sellers agreed to sell to the Buyers the machinery, equipment, fixtures, furniture, leasehold improvements
and other tangible personal property used in the operation of the Asian grocery stores located at 137 S. San Gabriel Blvd, San Gabriel,
California, and 935 W Duarte Rd, Monrovia, California (each, a “Store” and, together, the “Stores”), together
with the beer and wine licenses associated with the Stores (collectively, the “Assets”). The inventory of the Stores is being
sold separately under two Inventory Purchase Agreements, and the Sellers are retaining the “Good Fortune” trade name and related
goodwill.
The aggregate purchase price for the Assets is
$4,500,000, allocated $2,250,000 to each Store, consisting of $2,240,000 for the Assets at such Store and $10,000 for the beer and wine
license at such Store. The purchase price for the inventory is in addition to the foregoing and will equal the value of the saleable inventory
at each Store as determined by an independent third-party count. The purchase price for the Assets (other than the amounts allocated to
the beer and wine licenses) is payable in a single lump-sum payment on or before December 31, 2026 if the Buyers’ financing is funded
by that date and, if it is not, is payable in installments under two secured promissory notes (the “Promissory Notes”) in
the principal amount of $2,240,000 each, with interest accruing at 10% per annum beginning January 1, 2027 if principal remains unpaid
after December 31, 2026, and with the unpaid balance payable in three equal quarterly installments due March 31, 2027, June 30, 2027 and
September 30, 2027. Any amounts remaining unpaid after September 30, 2027 will constitute an event of default and will bear interest at
18% per annum until paid. The Buyers’ payment obligations are secured by purchase-money security interests in the Assets and the
related inventory, and are guaranteed under a personal and corporate guaranty to be provided by Qinghui Ni and ENSON GROUP, INC. The beer
and wine licenses will be transferred only upon approval of the California Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control.
The closing of the transaction is to occur on
or before December 31, 2026. The Buyers are acquiring the Assets on an “as-is, where-is” basis, and the transfer of each Store
is conditioned upon the Buyers obtaining an assignment of, or a new, real property lease for that Store together with the landlord’s
written release of the Company and its affiliates. The Asset Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, covenants
and indemnification provisions, and each Buyer has represented that it is not affiliated with the Company. The Sellers’ entry into
the Asset Purchase Agreement was approved by the Company’s Board of Directors, following the review and recommendation of the Audit
Committee, on July 1, 2026.
The foregoing description of the Asset Purchase
Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Asset Purchase Agreement,

(i) ENSON MARKET 33 SAN GABRIEL CA INC (“SG

(ii) ENSON MARKET 34 MONROVIA CA INC (“MV

(iii) Good Fortune Supermarket of San Gabriel,
LP (“SG Seller”); and

Each Buyer and each Seller is referred to individually as a “Party”
and collectively as the “Parties.”

partnerships with business operations located at (i) 137 S. San Gabriel Blvd, San Gabriel, CA 91776 (“SG Business Location”),
and (ii) 935 W Duarte Rd, Monrovia, CA 91016 (“MV Business Location”, together with the SG Business Location, the “Business
Locations”). The assets used in connection with the businesses operated at the Business Locations, as more particularly described
in Schedule A and Schedule B attached hereto (collectively, the “Assets”).
RECITALS
A. Sellers are engaged in the operation of Asian grocery stores. Sellers are the owner of record and beneficial
owner of the Assets.
B. SG Buyer desires to purchase the Assets of SG Seller used in connection with the business operated at
137 S. San Gabriel Blvd, San Gabriel, CA 91776, and MV Buyer desires to purchase the Assets of MV Seller used in connection with the business
operated at 935 W Duarte Rd, Monrovia, CA 91016. Buyer is not affiliated with, or related in any way to, Seller, its general partners,
or Maison Solutions Inc.
C. Subject only to the limitations and exclusions contained in this Agreement and on the terms and conditions
of this Agreement, SG Seller desires to sell to SG Buyer, and SG Buyer desires to buy from SG Seller, the Assets used in connection with
the SG Business Location; and MV Seller desires to sell to MV Buyer, and MV Buyer desires to buy from MV Seller, the Assets used in connection
with the MV Business Location, in each case as of the applicable Operational Transfer Date as defined in Section 1.3(b).
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration
of the recitals and of the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained, and intending to be legally bound, the parties
agree as follows:
ARTICLE 1 – PURCHASE AND SALE
1.1 Agreement to Sell. At the Closing (or, as to title and risk of loss, as of the applicable Operational
Transfer Date as provided in Section 1.3(b)) and except as otherwise specifically provided herein, the Seller will validly and effectively
grant, sell, convey, assign, transfer and deliver to the Buyer all of the Seller’s right, title and interest in and to the Assets
of Seller, including Seller’s rights to equipment and office supplies. The Assets are limited to the items described in Schedule
A and Schedule B. The beer and wine licenses are sold and transferred separately under Section 1.2.4 and only upon approval of the California
Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control, and the inventory is sold separately under the Inventory Purchase Agreements (one for each Business
Location, each an “Inventory Purchase Agreement” and collectively, the “Inventory Purchase Agreements”) (in the
forms attached hereto as Exhibit D-1 and Exhibit D-2); the licenses, the inventory, and the “HK Good Fortune” trade name and
related goodwill (which Seller retains for its other stores) are not part of the “Assets” and do not transfer under this Section.
1.2 Purchase Price; Payment. The total purchase price (the “Purchase Price”) for the Assets
and the beer and wine licenses shall be Four Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($4,500,000.00), allocated $2,250,000.00 to each Business
Location, consisting of $2,240,000.00 for the Assets and $10,000.00 for the beer and wine license at each Business Location, as set forth
in Sections 1.2.1 through 1.2.4. For the avoidance of doubt, inventory is not included in the Purchase Price and is paid separately under
the Inventory Purchase Agreements.
Prior to the applicable Operational Transfer Date
for each Business Location, Seller and Buyer will conduct a walkthrough of such Business Location. The walkthrough is for inspection only;
it is not a condition to Closing, a covenant, or a representation, and it confers on Buyer no price adjustment, termination right, or
other remedy.
1.2.1 Two Million Two Hundred Forty Thousand Dollars ($2,240,000.00) shall be allocated to the purchase of Seller’s
rights to the Assets located at or used in connection with the business operated at 137 S. San Gabriel Blvd, San Gabriel, CA 91776.
1.2.2 Two Million Two Hundred Forty Thousand Dollars ($2,240,000.00) shall be allocated to the purchase of Seller’s
rights to the Assets located at or used in connection with the business operated at 935 W Duarte Rd, Monrovia, CA 91016.
1.2.3 Payment Schedule. Subject to the installment alternative set forth below, Buyer shall pay Seller
the total Purchase Price (excluding the Twenty Thousand Dollars ($20,000.00) allocated to the beer and wine licenses, which shall be paid
solely as and when provided in Section 1.2.4) on or before December 31, 2026 as a one-time flat purchase payment. If Buyer’s SBA
loan or other financing is approved and funded prior to December 31, 2026, Buyer shall pay the Purchase Price to Seller in one lump-sum
payment promptly upon such funding, but in no event later than December 31, 2026. If Buyer’s SBA loan or other financing is not
approved and funded by December 31, 2026, the unpaid Purchase Price shall be paid in installments as evidenced by and payable under the
promissory notes in the forms attached hereto as Exhibit A-1 and Exhibit A-2 (each, a “Promissory Note”, and collectively,
the “Promissory Notes”), to be executed and delivered by Buyer at or before the applicable Operational Transfer Date. Any
seller-financed or deferred payment arrangement shall be secured as provided in Section 1.2.5 below and guaranteed under the Personal
and Corporate Guaranty in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C (the “Personal and Corporate Guaranty”). For this purpose,
a payment is “deferred” if it remains unpaid after the applicable Operational Transfer Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
Seller shall not be required to deliver possession of a Business Location until, for that Business Location: (a) the Promissory Note the
Personal and Corporate Guaranty, and the Security Agreement have been executed and delivered; (b) the UCC-1 financing statement covering
inventory has been filed; and (c) the UCC-1 financing statement(s) covering the equipment, fixtures, and fixed assets are in proper form
for filing within the period permitted under Section 1.2.5.
1.2.4 Beer and Wine Licenses. As part of, and not in addition to, the Purchase Price set forth above,
Twenty Thousand Dollars ($20,000.00) of the Purchase Price shall be allocated to the purchase of Seller’s right, title, and interest
in the beer and wine licenses associated with the Business Locations, as follows: The beer and wine licenses shall be transferred only
in compliance with all applicable requirements of the California Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control, and the consideration allocated
to the licenses shall be paid only after the Department approves the transfer. Until the transfer is approved by the Department, Buyer
shall not exercise any privilege under Seller’s license (including the sale of beer or wine), shall obtain its own license or a
temporary operating permit before making any such sales, shall bear all license transfer fees and costs, and shall indemnify Seller for
any alcoholic-beverage sales made before the transfer is approved. From the applicable Operational Transfer Date until the Department
approves the license transfer, Buyer shall not sell beer or wine under Seller’s license, and neither Seller nor Maison Solutions
Inc. shall have any obligation to operate, or permit operation under, Seller’s license. Any arrangement permitting alcohol sales
during such interim period must be separately documented in a manner compliant with ABC requirements.
1.2.4.1 Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000.00) shall be allocated to Seller’s right, title, and interest in the
Beer and Wine License for the business located at 137 S. San Gabriel Blvd, San Gabriel, CA 91776, License No.: 567219.
2
1.2.4.2 Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000.00) shall be allocated to Seller’s right, title, and interest in the
Beer and Wine License for the business located at 935 W Duarte Rd, Monrovia, CA 91016, License No. 565607.
1.2.5 Seller Financing / Deferred Payment Security. If any portion of the Purchase Price, inventory payment,
or other amount owed to Seller is seller-financed or deferred after the applicable Operational Transfer Date, then effective upon the
transfer of operational control of the applicable Business Location, Buyer hereby grants Seller:
(i) a purchase-money security interest in the store equipment, fixtures, fixed assets, and the inventory counted
and verified for such Business Location and acquired by Buyer from Seller (the “Acquired Assets”); and
(ii) a security interest in all proceeds of the Acquired Assets and in after-acquired inventory and equipment
of the applicable Business Location.
The Acquired Assets, together with all
such proceeds and after-acquired property, are collectively the “Collateral.” Such security interest shall remain in place
until all seller-financed or deferred amounts owed to Seller are paid in full. For the avoidance of doubt, the inclusion of inventory
in the Acquired Assets and the Collateral is for security purposes only; title to inventory passes under the Inventory Purchase Agreements,
and inventory is not part of the “Assets” sold under this Agreement.
Buyer shall cooperate with Seller and
authorize Seller to file one or more UCC-1 financing statements against Buyer’s exact legal name in its state of organization to
perfect such security interest. Buyer acknowledges that the Assets are subject to the SBA’s pre-existing lien securing the Seller
SBA Loan, and that Seller’s security interest will constitute a first-priority purchase-money security interest, in each Business
Location’s Acquired Assets and only to the extent of the purchase-money obligation incurred as their price (the security interest
securing any cross-collateralized obligations being of ordinary priority), only upon release or subordination of that SBA lien pursuant
to Section 1.2.6. To preserve such purchase-money priority, Seller shall be entitled to file the UCC-1 covering equipment, fixtures, and
fixed assets within twenty (20) days after Buyer receives possession, and to file the UCC-1 covering inventory before Buyer receives possession;
Buyer shall provide all information and execute all documents reasonably necessary to permit such timely filing. The reasonable costs
of UCC registration shall be borne by Buyer.
The security interest shall be documented
in a separate Security Agreement (in the form attached as Exhibit B), which shall include after-acquired property, proceeds, remedies,
and insurance and maintenance covenants. The defined term “Collateral” shall be used consistently in the Promissory Notes,
the Inventory Purchase Agreements, and the Security Agreement.
If Buyer funds any portion of the Purchase
Price through an SBA or other third-party loan, then at the funding of such loan either (x) Seller shall be paid in full all amounts then
owed and shall release its security interest, or (y) if any seller-financed amount remains outstanding, the relative priority of Seller’s
lien shall be governed by a written subordination or standby agreement separately negotiated and executed by Seller; absent such executed
agreement, Seller shall not be required to subordinate or release its purchase-money security interest.
3
1.2.6 Seller SBA Loan Payoff; Lien Release; Release of Guarantor. Each Seller’s existing U.S. Small
Business Administration COVID-19 Economic Injury Disaster Loan (each, a “Seller SBA Loan”) is secured by a lien on the tangible
and intangible personal property of the applicable Business Location (which includes the Assets) and is personally guaranteed by Mr. John
Jun Xu under SBA Form 2128. The Seller SBA Loan is the Seller’s own indebtedness and is separate and distinct from any acquisition
or other financing obtained by Buyer (referred to in Sections 1.2.3, 1.2.5, and 1.4 as Buyer’s “SBA loan or other financing”),
for which Seller has no responsibility. On or before the applicable Operational Transfer Date for each Business Location, Seller shall
cause the Seller SBA Loan secured by the Assets of that Business Location to be either: (i) paid and satisfied in full from funds available
to Seller (regardless of the timing or source of Buyer’s payment of the Purchase Price), with the SBA’s lien on the Assets
released and the related UCC financing statement(s) terminated, and with Mr. John Jun Xu’s guaranty under SBA Form 2128 for that
Seller SBA Loan released or terminated; or (ii) the subject of the SBA’s prior written consent to the sale of the Assets and, to
the extent the Seller SBA Loan is to remain outstanding, to its continuation, together with the SBA’s release or subordination of
its lien on the Assets as the SBA may require. Buyer acknowledges that SBA Economic Injury Disaster Loans are generally not assumable
and that a sale of substantially all of a Business Location’s assets outside the ordinary course of business typically requires
payoff of the Seller SBA Loan. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, Seller shall not be required to deliver operational
possession of a Business Location until the condition in clause (i) or clause (ii) above has been satisfied for that Business Location,
and Seller may, in its sole discretion and without liability to Buyer, defer the applicable Operational Transfer Date or decline to deliver
possession to the extent necessary to avoid any breach of, or event of default under, the Seller SBA Loan documents. Seller’s obligation
under this Section 1.2.6 to cause the Seller SBA Loan to be paid off in full (or, alternatively, to obtain the SBA’s written consent)
is absolute and is not conditioned on Buyer’s payment of the Purchase Price. Because the Seller SBA Loans of Seller and its affiliates
are cross-defaulted, Seller may condition delivery of either Business Location upon obtaining a coordinated SBA payoff or written consent
covering both Business Locations and any affiliated SBA borrower.
1.3 Closing; Operational Transfer Dates; Inventory Count and Payment.
(a) Closing. The closing (the “Closing”) of the sale and purchase of the Assets shall take
place at the offices of the Seller on or before December 31, 2026, or at such other place, date and time as shall be mutually agreed by
the parties hereto. The date of the Closing is sometimes referred to as the “Closing Date”. For the avoidance of doubt, delivery
of operational possession and the passage of title and risk of loss occur on the applicable Operational Transfer Date under Section 1.3(b),
which precedes the Closing; the Closing constitutes the final settlement and documentation of the transaction and does not postpone the
transfer of title effected under Section 1.3(b).
(b) Operational Transfer. Notwithstanding the final payment schedule set forth in Section 1.2.3, Seller
shall provide Buyer with operational turnover and possession of the business operated at 137 S. San Gabriel Blvd, San Gabriel, CA 91776
on the later of July 1, 2026 and the date on which the conditions to delivery for that Business Location under Sections 1.2.3, 1.2.5,
1.2.6 and 1.9 are satisfied or waived by Seller, and the business operated at 935 W Duarte Rd, Monrovia, CA 91016 on the later of August
1, 2026 and the date on which the conditions to delivery for that Business Location under Sections 1.2.3, 1.2.5, 1.2.6 and 1.9 are satisfied
or waived by Seller, subject to any required landlord, governmental, licensing, or third-party approvals. Each such date is referred to
as an “Operational Transfer Date.”
4
Effective as of each applicable Operational
Transfer Date, title to and risk of loss for the Assets at the applicable Business Location shall pass to Buyer, and Buyer shall thereafter
operate such Business Location for Buyer’s own account and at Buyer’s sole risk. Buyer shall remain liable for the full Purchase
Price and all amounts owed to Seller notwithstanding any casualty, loss, theft, or diminution of the Assets occurring on or after the
applicable Operational Transfer Date. Buyer’s payment and performance obligations to Seller shall be secured as set forth in Section
1.2.5.
(c) Inventory Count and Payment. On or immediately before each applicable Operational Transfer Date,
the inventory at such Business Location shall be counted and valued by an independent third-party inventory service mutually acceptable
to Buyer and Seller. Buyer shall pay Seller the inventory amount determined by such third-party count in the installments and on the dates
set forth in the applicable Inventory Purchase Agreement. Unless otherwise agreed in writing, the inventory payment shall be separate
from, and in addition to, the Purchase Price set forth in Section 1.2.
1.4 Items to be Delivered by Buyer at Closing. Buyer shall deliver to Seller:
(a) Wire transfer or a cashier’s check for any portion of the Purchase Price then due and payable under
Section 1.2.3. The amount and timing of each payment are governed by Section 1.2.3 and the Promissory Notes. Each applicable Buyer shall
pay the portion of the Purchase Price allocated to the Business Location acquired by such Buyer in immediately available funds by wire
transfer or cashier’s check on or before December 31, 2026. To the extent any portion of such Purchase Price remains unpaid after
December 31, 2026, such unpaid amount shall be evidenced by and paid in accordance with the applicable Promissory Note(s), including the
payment schedule, default provisions, interest, fees, and other terms set forth therein.
(b) A check made payable to CDTFA for any sales tax due on equipment.
1.5 Bulk Sales. With respect to the beer and wine licenses, and notwithstanding any provision of this
Agreement to the contrary, the transfer of the licenses shall be conducted through an escrow to the extent required by California Business
and Professions Code section 24074 and the rules of the Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control, the costs of which shall be borne solely
by Buyer; nothing in this Section limits Buyer’s obligations under Section 1.2.4. The purchase and sale of the Assets shall not
be conducted through an Escrow. Seller at Seller’s election on behalf of Buyer and Seller shall either (i) comply with the provisions
of the Uniform Commercial Code or any other “Bulk Sales” law now in effect in California which relate to the bulk transfer
of assets; or (ii) elect not to comply in which case, Buyer waives compliance by Seller with the provisions of the Uniform Commercial
Code or any other law now in effect in California which relates to the bulk transfer of assets.
1.6 Employees. Buyer shall offer employment, effective as of the applicable Operational Transfer Date,
to substantially all employees of the applicable Business Location, and shall be responsible for and indemnify Seller against any obligation
under the federal and California WARN Acts and any severance arising from the transaction. Seller shall pay each employee’s wages
and accrued, vested vacation through the Operational Transfer Date as required by Labor Code sections 201 to 203 and 227.3.
1.7 Sales, Transfer and Documentary Taxes, etc. Neither the Seller nor the Buyer shall be responsible
for the other’s sales, transfer or documentary taxes, if any, due to the sale of Assets.
5
1.8 FEINS. For clarity, in this asset sale Seller transfers no tax identification number or tax attribute
to Buyer; each party is responsible solely for taxes arising under its own FEIN, and neither party assumes the other’s tax liabilities.
After the Closing, Buyer shall operate its new business under new tax and corporate numbers including a new FEIN. Buyer shall use its
own FEIN for all business activities at the business location after the Closing Date. Seller will be solely responsible for any taxes
owed under Seller’s FEIN through the Closing Date. Seller shall not assume or accept any liability or responsibility for taxes owed
by Buyer under Buyer’s FEIN number and Buyer will not assume or accept any liability or responsibility for any taxes owed under
Seller’s FEIN.
1.9 Premises Leases. Operational turnover of each Business Location is conditioned upon Buyer obtaining,
at Buyer’s sole cost and before the applicable Operational Transfer Date, either (i) a valid assignment and assumption of, or (ii)
a new lease for, the real property lease for that Business Location, together in each case with the landlord’s written consent and
a full, unconditional written release of Seller and its affiliates (including Maison Solutions Inc.) from all obligations under such lease
arising on or after the Operational Transfer Date. Buyer shall assume, perform, and indemnify Seller and its affiliates against all obligations
under each such lease from and after the Operational Transfer Date. If the landlord’s consent and Seller’s release for a Business
Location are not obtained, Seller may, in its sole discretion and without liability, decline to deliver possession of that Business Location.
ARTICLE 2 - BUYER REPRESENTATIONS
2.1 Organization, Good Standing, and Authority. Buyer is a corporation, duly organized, validly existing,
and in good standing under the laws of California as relevant, with all requisite corporate power and authority to own, operate, and lease

The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the consummation of this transaction by Buyer have been, or prior to the Closing will
have been, duly authorized, and no further company authorization is or will be necessary on the part of Buyer.

operated at the Business Locations to the extent desired by Buyer. Buyer is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of this investment
and is able to bear the economic risk of and suffer a total loss of the investment. Buyer has made an independent evaluation of the federal,
state, and local income tax consequences of Buyer’s acquisition and is not relying on any representations of Seller in evaluating
this agreement of for any legal, investment, or tax advice.
2.3 No Affiliation with Maison. Buyer represents and warrants, as of the date hereof and as of the
Closing, that neither Buyer nor any of its beneficial owners or affiliates is affiliated with, related to, or otherwise connected in any
way, whether by ownership, common control, family relationship, agreement, or otherwise, with Maison Solutions Inc., any of its subsidiaries,
or any of their respective controlling shareholders, directors, officers, or employees.
ARTICLE 3 - COVENANTS TO CLOSING

(including Maison Solutions Inc.), and their respective past, present, and future shareholders, members, partners, directors, officers,
managers, employees, agents, advisors, attorneys, successors, and assigns, and Mr. John Jun Xu, in his individual capacity as guarantor
under SBA Form 2128 (collectively, the “Seller Indemnitees”), from and against any and all losses, damages, liabilities, claims,
actions, judgments, settlements, costs, and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees (collectively, “Losses”),
incurred by the Seller Indemnitees arising out of, resulting from, or relating to: (a) any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation
or warranty made by Buyer in this Agreement; (b) any breach or non-fulfillment of any covenant, agreement, or obligation to be performed
by Buyer pursuant to this Agreement; (c) Buyer’s operation of the Business Locations on or after the applicable Operational Transfer
Date, and any alcoholic-beverage, employee, or lease matters allocated to Buyer under this Agreement, and any tax matters allocated to
Buyer under Sections 1.4 and 1.8; and (d) each Seller SBA Loan (as defined in Section 1.2.6) and the related notes, security agreements,
and guarantees, including SBA Form 2128 executed by Mr. John Jun Xu, and any demand, enforcement, or collection by the SBA against Mr.
John Jun Xu or any Seller, except to the extent such Losses result from Seller’s breach of its obligations under Section 1.2.6 or
from Seller’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. Mr. John Jun Xu is an express third-party beneficiary of this Article 4 and
may enforce its provisions directly.
4.2 Indemnification by the Seller. Seller shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Buyer and its
affiliates, and their respective shareholders, directors, officers, employees, and agents (collectively, the “Buyer Indemnitees”)
from and against any and all Losses incurred by the Buyer Indemnitees arising out of or resulting from any breach or non-fulfillment of
any covenant, agreement, or obligation to be performed by Seller pursuant to this Agreement, including Section 1.2.6. For the avoidance
of doubt, Seller makes no representations or warranties of any kind in this Agreement, and the Assets are sold on an AS-IS, WHERE-IS,
WHERE-AS basis as provided in Section 3.1. The aggregate liability of Seller for indemnification under this Section 4.2 shall not exceed
the Purchase Price ($4,500,000.00), except in the case of actual fraud by Seller. In no event shall Seller be liable for any consequential,
incidental, indirect, special, punitive, or exemplary damages, or for any lost profits, diminution in value, or damages calculated on
a multiple-of-earnings or similar basis, except to the extent actually awarded to a third party. From and after the Closing, except in
the case of actual fraud, the indemnification provisions of this Article 4 shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the Buyer Indemnitees
for any and all claims arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the Assets, or the Business Locations, and Buyer hereby waives, to
the fullest extent permitted by law, any other rights or remedies (whether in contract, tort, statute, or otherwise).
4.3 Third-Party Claims. If any Seller Indemnitee or Buyer Indemnitee (the “Indemnified Party”)
receives notice of any claim, demand, or proceeding asserted by a third party (a “Third-Party Claim”) that may give rise to
indemnification hereunder, the Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Party from whom indemnification is sought (the “Indemnitor”)
in writing; provided that the failure to give such prompt notice shall not relieve the Indemnitor of its obligations except to the extent
it is actually and materially prejudiced thereby. The Indemnitor shall have the right to assume and control the defense of such Third-Party
Claim with counsel of its choice, and shall not settle any such claim without the Indemnified Party’s prior written consent (not
to be unreasonably withheld) unless such settlement provides solely for monetary payment fully borne by the Indemnitor and includes a
full release of the Indemnified Party. The Parties shall cooperate in good faith in the defense of any Third-Party Claim.

ARTICLE 5 - MISCELLANEOUS

in representing its own interests and be solely responsible for its advice and fees. Both parties agree it has not relied on the other
party’s professionals’ opinion or representation and his/her decision to transfer and buy sell is based solely on his/her
own independent investigation and judgment.

the Inventory Purchase Agreements, the Personal and Corporate Guaranty, and the Schedules and Exhibits hereto (collectively, the “Transaction

release Buyer, and Buyer shall remain jointly and severally liable. Any UCC-1 shall be filed against the exact legal name and state of

and severally liable for all obligations of Buyer under this Agreement and the Transaction Documents, including the payment of the Purchase
Price, the Promissory Notes, the Inventory Purchase Agreements, the Security Agreement, indemnification obligations, and all other covenants,
agreements, and obligations of Buyer hereunder or thereunder.

either Promissory Note, either Inventory Purchase Agreement, the Security Agreement, or the Personal and Corporate Guaranty (each, a “Transaction
Document”) shall, subject to any applicable notice and cure period set forth in the applicable Transaction Document, constitute
a default under each of the other Transaction Documents, and shall entitle the Seller and the Secured Party to exercise all rights and
remedies available under each Transaction Document and Article 9 of the UCC, including acceleration and repossession of the Collateral.

California corporation, the Buyers under the APA (or its permitted assignee under Section 5.9 of the APA) that acquires title to the Acquired
Assets (“Debtor”, and collectively the “Debtors”; each of ENSON MARKET 33 SAN GABRIEL CA INC and ENSON MARKET
34 MONROVIA CA INC is a Debtor only as to the Collateral it owns or in which it has rights, and references in this Agreement to “the
Debtor” mean each Debtor severally as to such Collateral), in favor of Good Fortune Supermarket of San Gabriel, LP and Good Fortune
Supermarket of Monrovia, LP, as the applicable Seller under the APA (“Secured Party”, and collectively the “Secured
Parties”; each Seller is a Secured Party, each Secured Party’s security interest secures all Secured Obligations on a cross-collateralized
basis as provided in Section 2, and the Secured Parties may act jointly or by either of them, or through a collateral agent they designate
in writing). This Agreement is the Security Agreement, and a “Transaction Document” under, and is delivered pursuant to Section
1.2.5 of, the Asset Purchase Agreement dated ____July 1____, 2026, among the Buyers, Good Fortune Supermarket of San Gabriel, LP, and
Good Fortune Supermarket of Monrovia, LP (as amended, the “APA”). This Agreement, the APA, the Promissory Notes, the Inventory
Purchase Agreements, and the Personal and Corporate Guaranty are part of a single integrated transaction and shall be construed consistently.
All statutory references to the “UCC” are to the California Uniform Commercial Code (Cal. Com. Code § 9101 et seq.).
Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined in this Agreement have the meanings given to them in the APA.
1. Grant of Security Interest
As security for the Secured Obligations, Debtor hereby grants, pledges,
assigns, and transfers to Secured Party, and to the extent of any interest retained by Secured Party as an unpaid seller of goods confirms,
a continuing security interest in all of Debtor’s right, title, and interest in and to the Collateral, whether now owned or hereafter
acquired. This Agreement is a security agreement within the meaning of Article 9 of the UCC. Each of ENSON MARKET 33 SAN GABRIEL CA INC
and ENSON MARKET 34 MONROVIA CA INC grants the security interest only in the Collateral that it owns or in which it has rights, and Secured
Party shall file a separate UCC-1 financing statement against each such entity, as the title-holding Debtor, covering the Acquired Assets
of the Business Location it owns.
2. Secured Obligations
“Secured Obligations” means all present and future obligations
of Debtor, and of any Borrower under a Promissory Note (whether or not such Borrower is the Debtor), under the APA (including the Purchase
Price), both Promissory Notes, both Inventory Purchase Agreements, and this Agreement, of every kind, whether for principal, interest,
default interest, costs, or fees. To the extent any Borrower under a Promissory Note is a person other than the Debtor, the Debtor grants
the security interest in the Collateral as security for such Borrower’s obligations as well as its own, and the Debtor and each
such Borrower are jointly and severally liable for the Secured Obligations to the extent provided in the Transaction Documents. The Collateral
at each Business Location secures all Secured Obligations on a cross-collateralized basis, and not only the obligations attributable to
that Business Location.
3. Collateral
“Collateral” means, for each Business Location, whether
now owned or hereafter acquired and consistent with Section 1.2.5 of the APA: (a) the store equipment, fixtures, and fixed assets, and
the Purchased Inventory (as defined in the applicable Inventory Purchase Agreement) counted and verified for such Business Location and
acquired by the Debtor from the applicable Seller (collectively, the “Acquired Assets”); (b) all after-acquired inventory
and equipment of such Business Location; and (c) all proceeds and products of the foregoing, including identifiable cash proceeds and
insurance proceeds, and accounts to the extent constituting proceeds. The Collateral excludes, and the Acquired Assets do not include,
the beer and wine licenses (which transfer separately under Section 1.2.4 of the APA), any alcoholic-beverage inventory except to the
extent its transfer, possession, and resale comply with California Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control requirements and applicable
law, and the “HK Good Fortune” trade name and related goodwill (retained by Seller). The defined term “Collateral”
has the same meaning as in Section 1.2.5 of the APA and shall be used consistently across the APA, the Promissory Notes, the Inventory
Purchase Agreements, and this Agreement.
26
4. Purchase-Money Status; Dual Status
Secured Party holds a purchase-money security interest (“PMSI”)
(i) in the inventory acquired by the Debtor from the Secured Party (the “Purchased Inventory”) and its identifiable proceeds,
securing the purchase-money obligation incurred as the price of such inventory, and (ii) in the store equipment, fixtures, and fixed assets,
securing the purchase-money obligation incurred as their price. The PMSI in inventory does not extend to after-acquired inventory; the
security interest in after-acquired inventory and equipment under Section 3(b) is an ordinary, non-purchase-money security interest. Under
UCC § 9-103(f), the security interest does not lose its purchase-money status by reason of also securing obligations that are not
purchase-money obligations, by reason of the Collateral also securing non-purchase-money obligations, or by reason of any renewal, refinancing,
consolidation, or restructuring of the Secured Obligations. To the extent any item of Collateral secures Secured Obligations other than
its own purchase-money obligation, it does so as ordinary, non-purchase-money collateral, and Secured Party’s priority under UCC
§ 9-324 in that item extends only to the purchase-money obligation incurred as its price.
5. Attachment
The security interest attaches when value is given, the Debtor has
rights in the applicable Collateral (or the power to transfer rights therein), and the Debtor has authenticated this Agreement, as provided
in UCC § 9-203. Value is given by the sale of the Acquired Assets and the extension of seller financing and deferred-payment terms.
The Debtor acquires rights in the Acquired Assets upon the applicable Operational Transfer Date, when title to and risk of loss for the
Acquired Assets pass to the Debtor under Section 1.3(b) of the APA, the security interest being granted effective upon the transfer of
operational control of the applicable Business Location under Section 1.2.5 of the APA, and the Debtor acquires rights in after-acquired
Collateral as it is acquired. This Agreement contains a description of the Collateral sufficient under UCC § 9-108, and this Agreement,
the APA, and any related authenticated record constitute security agreements sufficient for attachment. The Debtor shall execute and authenticate
such further records as Secured Party may reasonably request to create, attach, continue, and protect the security interest.
6. Perfection; Further Assurances
The Debtor authorizes Secured Party, under UCC § 9-509, to file
one or more UCC-1 financing statements, fixture filings, amendments, continuations, and assignments describing the Collateral (including
by a description of the Acquired Assets or by reference to “all assets” or “all personal property”), in each case
against the Debtor’s exact legal name in the Debtor’s state of organization, and the Debtor ratifies any such filing made
before the date of this Agreement. To preserve first-priority purchase-money status: (a) Secured Party may file the UCC-1 covering inventory
before the Debtor receives possession of the inventory; (b) Secured Party may file the UCC-1 covering equipment, fixtures, and fixed assets
before the Debtor receives possession or within twenty (20) days after the Debtor receives possession (UCC § 9-324(a)); and (c) at
least fifteen (15) business days before each Operational Transfer Date, the Debtor shall disclose in writing every secured party holding
a security interest in the Debtor’s inventory of the same types as the Purchased Inventory, so that Secured Party may cause the
authenticated notifications required by UCC § 9-324(b) to be received by those secured parties before the Debtor receives possession.
If title to any Collateral is held by an entity other than the obligor on a Promissory Note, the UCC-1 shall name the title-holding entity,
as Debtor, by its exact legal name and state of organization, so that perfection is effective under UCC § 9-503. The Debtor shall
cooperate with all fixture filings, landlord lien waivers or access agreements, deposit account or securities account control agreements,
insurance endorsements, and other documents Secured Party reasonably requests to perfect, maintain, and enforce the security interest.
The Debtor shall not change its name, identity, organizational form, state of organization, or location without at least thirty (30) days’
prior written notice to Secured Party. The reasonable costs of UCC registration and searches shall be borne by the Debtor.
27
7. Possession Condition
The Secured Party (or the applicable Seller) is not required to deliver
possession of a Business Location to the Debtor unless and until the applicable Promissory Note, this Agreement, the Personal and Corporate
Guaranty and the UCC-1 financing statement covering inventory have been executed and filed before the Debtor receives possession, and
the UCC-1 financing statement(s) covering the equipment, fixtures, and fixed assets have been filed before the Debtor receives possession
or, if the Secured Party elects to rely on the statutory twenty (20) day purchase-money priority period, are in proper form for filing
before possession and are filed within twenty (20) days after the Debtor receives possession. These conditions are in addition to, and
not in lieu of, the conditions to delivery of possession set forth in Sections 1.2.3 and 1.2.5 of the APA.
8. Representations and Warranties
The Debtor represents that: (a) its exact legal name and state of organization
are as stated on the signature page; (b) it is duly organized and in good standing; (c) it has, or upon the applicable Operational Transfer
Date will have, rights in and good and valid title to the Collateral; (d) the Debtor, and not any Borrower that does not hold such title
or any other person, holds title to the Collateral, so that each UCC-1 is filed against the title-holding Debtor under UCC § 9-503;
and (e) except as disclosed in writing to Secured Party and except for the pre-existing lien securing the applicable Seller SBA Loan (which
Seller is obligated to cause to be released or subordinated on or before the applicable Operational Transfer Date pursuant to Section
1.2.6 of the APA), the Collateral is and will be free of liens other than the security interest granted hereby.
9. Covenants
Until the Secured Obligations are paid in full, the Debtor shall: (a)
keep the tangible Collateral insured against customary risks for its full replacement value, name Secured Party as loss payee and additional
insured, and deliver evidence of coverage on request; (b) maintain the Collateral in good operating condition, ordinary wear excepted;
(c) not sell, lease, encumber, conceal, remove, or otherwise dispose of equipment, fixtures, or fixed assets Collateral outside the ordinary
course without Secured Party’s prior written consent (the Debtor may sell inventory in the ordinary course until an Event of Default);
(d) pay all taxes and keep the Collateral free of unpermitted liens; and (e) promptly notify Secured Party of any loss, casualty, or change
in the location of the Collateral, the Debtor’s name, or its place of business.
10. Events of Default
Each of the following is an “Event of Default”: (a) the
Debtor or any Borrower fails to pay any Secured Obligation when due (subject to any applicable cure period in the relevant Transaction
Document); (b) breach of any covenant herein; (c) any representation herein proves materially false; (d) the Debtor sells, transfers,
encumbers, conceals, removes, materially damages, fails to insure, or otherwise disposes of any Collateral except as permitted herein
or with Secured Party’s prior written consent; or (e) a default occurs under the APA, either Promissory Note, either Inventory Purchase
Agreement, the Personal and Corporate Guaranty or any other Transaction Document. A default under any one Transaction Document constitutes
a default under each of them.
28
11. Remedies
Upon an Event of Default, Secured Party may exercise all rights and
remedies of a secured party under Part 6 of Article 9 of the UCC and the other Transaction Documents, including: declaring all Secured
Obligations immediately due and payable; requiring the Debtor to assemble the Collateral and make it available to Secured Party; taking
possession of the Collateral, with or without judicial process, by self-help under UCC § 9-609 if it can be done without breach of
the peace; and disposing of the Collateral under UCC § 9-610 with commercially reasonable notice. Proceeds shall be applied as provided
in UCC § 9-615. Secured Party’s rights and remedies are cumulative. Nothing herein limits the court carve-outs for enforcement
of the security interest set forth in the Transaction Documents.
12. Priority; Subordination
Secured Party’s security interest constitutes a first-priority
purchase-money security interest, in each Business Location’s Acquired Assets and only to the extent of the purchase-money obligation
incurred as their price (the security interest securing cross-collateralized obligations being an ordinary, non-purchase-money security
interest as provided in Section 4), only upon the release or subordination of the pre-existing lien securing the applicable Seller SBA
Loan (as defined in Section 1.2.6 of the APA), which Seller is obligated to cause on or before the applicable Operational Transfer Date
as a condition to delivering possession under Section 1.2.6 of the APA; until such release or subordination, that Seller SBA Loan lien
may be senior to the security interest granted hereby. If the Debtor or any Borrower funds any portion of the Purchase Price through an
SBA or other third-party loan, the relative priority of Secured Party’s lien shall be governed by Section 1.2.5 of the APA; absent
a separately executed written subordination or standby agreement, Secured Party shall not be required to subordinate or release its purchase-money
security interest.
13. Miscellaneous
In the event of any conflict between this Agreement and the APA as
to the security interest, the provision granting Secured Party the greater protection shall control to the fullest extent permitted by
law. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts and by electronic signature.
14. Governing Law
Should there be any disputes arising from this Agreement, both parties
agree that California law shall be the governing law. Subject to the arbitration provision below, the state and federal courts located
in Los Angeles County, California shall have jurisdiction over any court action permitted under this Section. Any dispute arising out
of or relating to this Agreement that the parties do not resolve shall be finally resolved by binding arbitration administered by JAMS
in Los Angeles County, California, before a single arbitrator under its Comprehensive Arbitration Rules, and judgment on the award may
be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) Secured Party may seek injunctive or provisional
relief from a court to enforce the security interest, and (b) Secured Party may bring in any court of competent jurisdiction any action
to collect or enforce the Promissory Notes, the Inventory Purchase Agreements, the Security Agreement, the Personal and Corporate Guaranty
or any security interest; the exclusive venue for any such court action is Los Angeles County, California. To the fullest extent permitted
by law, each party waives any right to a trial by jury in any proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement.

RECITALS
A. Borrower and the Lender executed, or will execute, two promissory
notes dated July 1, 2026 (as amended, restated, renewed, extended, supplemented, or replaced from time to time, the “Promissory
Notes”) and the Asset Purchase Agreement dated July 1, 2026. Under the Promissory Notes and the Asset Purchase Agreement, the Borrower
promises to pay Lender the principal sum of Four Million Four Hundred Eighty Thousand Dollars ($4,480,000.00), being the aggregate original
principal of the two Promissory Notes, $2,240,000.00 each, together with interest and all other amounts owing thereunder. The foregoing
principal amount is stated for reference only and does not limit the Guaranteed Obligations, which include all amounts payable by Borrower
under the Transaction Documents, including each Inventory Purchase Agreement.
B. Lender is relying on this Guaranty as a material inducement
to extend credit to Borrower and/or to enter into the related transaction documents.
C. The Individual Guarantor and the Corporate Guarantor are sometimes
referred to individually as a “Guarantor” and collectively as the “Guarantors.”
AGREEMENT
1. Guaranty of Payment and Performance. Each Guarantor, jointly
and severally, absolutely, unconditionally, and irrevocably guarantees to Lender the full and prompt payment and performance when due,
whether at stated maturity, by acceleration, or otherwise, of all obligations of Borrower under the Promissory Notes, the Asset Purchase
Agreement, the Security Agreement, the Inventory Purchase Agreements and any amendment, extension, renewal, or other document executed
in connection with the Promissory Notes (collectively, together with this Guaranty, the “Transaction Documents”; such obligations,
the “Guaranteed Obligations”). This is a guaranty of payment and performance and not merely a guaranty of collection.
32
2. Scope of Guaranteed Obligations. The Guaranteed Obligations
include the principal amount of the Promissory Notes, accrued and unpaid interest, default interest, late charges, attorneys’ fees, costs
of collection, enforcement expenses, indemnity obligations, and any other amounts payable by Borrower to Lender under the Promissory
Notes or related Transaction Documents, including, without limitation, all amounts payable by Borrower under each Inventory Purchase
Agreement.
3. Joint and Several Liability. The liability of each Guarantor
is joint and several, primary, direct, and independent of the liability of Borrower or any other guarantor, surety, pledgor, or obligor.
Lender may enforce this Guaranty against any one or more Guarantors without joining Borrower or any other person or entity.
4. Continuing Guaranty. This Guaranty is a continuing guaranty
and shall remain in full force and effect until all Guaranteed Obligations have been fully and indefeasibly paid and performed. This
Guaranty shall continue to apply to any extension, renewal, modification, amendment, replacement, restatement, or restructuring of the
Promissory Notes or the Guaranteed Obligations, whether or not any Guarantor receives notice thereof or consents thereto.
5. No Requirement to Proceed First Against Borrower or Collateral.
Lender may proceed directly against any Guarantor following any default or breach by Borrower, without first proceeding against Borrower,
any collateral, any other guarantor, or any other person or entity, and without making demand upon or giving notice to Borrower or any
Guarantor.
6. Waivers. To the fullest extent permitted by law, each Guarantor
waives: (a) notice of acceptance of this Guaranty; (b) presentment, demand for payment, protest, and notice of dishonor; (c) notice of
default; (d) any right to require Lender to proceed against Borrower, any other Guarantor, any collateral, or any other person or entity;
(e) any right to require Lender to marshal assets or apply collateral in any particular order; (f) any defense arising from any extension,
renewal, modification, amendment, impairment, release, substitution, or compromise of the Promissory Notes, any collateral, or any other
obligation; and (g) any suretyship defenses that may be waived under applicable law.
7. Subordination of Claims Against Borrower. Until the Guaranteed
Obligations are fully and indefeasibly paid and performed, each Guarantor subordinates to Lender all existing and future indebtedness,
claims, rights of reimbursement, contribution, indemnity, and subrogation that such Guarantor may have against Borrower. No Guarantor
shall enforce any such claim against Borrower unless and until the Guaranteed Obligations have been fully and indefeasibly paid and performed.
8. Reinstatement. If any payment received by Lender from Borrower,
any Guarantor, or any other source is later avoided, rescinded, recovered, disgorged, or returned for any reason, including in bankruptcy,
insolvency, preference, fraudulent transfer, or similar proceedings, then this Guaranty shall be automatically reinstated as to the returned
amount as though such payment had never been made.
9. Corporate Guarantor Representations. Corporate Guarantor represents
and warrants that it is duly organized, validly existing, and in good standing under the laws of its state of organization; that it has
full power and authority to execute, deliver, and perform this Guaranty; that execution and performance of this Guaranty have been duly
authorized by all necessary corporate action; and that the person signing this Guaranty on behalf of Corporate Guarantor is duly authorized
to do so.
10. Individual Guarantor Representations. Individual Guarantor represents
and warrants that Individual Guarantor has had the opportunity to consult independent legal counsel, understands the nature and consequences
of this Guaranty, and executes this Guaranty voluntarily and with the intent to be legally bound. If Individual Guarantor is married,
Individual Guarantor agrees that recourse may be had against Individual Guarantor’s separate property for all obligations under this
Guaranty.
33
11. Financial Information. Upon Lender’s reasonable request, each
Guarantor shall provide financial statements, tax returns, corporate authorization documents, ownership information, or other information
reasonably requested by Lender to evaluate such Guarantor’s financial condition, authority, or continuing ability to perform this Guaranty.
12. No Release. This Guaranty shall not be released, discharged,
reduced, modified, impaired, or otherwise affected by: (a) Lender’s failure or delay in enforcing any right or remedy; (b) any extension,
renewal, amendment, compromise, settlement, or release involving Borrower, any collateral, or any other guarantor; (c) any insolvency,
bankruptcy, dissolution, merger, sale, assignment, change in ownership, or reorganization of Borrower or any Guarantor; or (d) any invalidity,
irregularity, unenforceability, or lack of perfection of any collateral document or lien.
13. Costs and Attorneys’ Fees. If Lender brings any action or proceeding
to enforce this Guaranty or to collect any Guaranteed Obligations, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover its reasonable attorneys’
fees, court costs, arbitration costs, and other enforcement expenses, in addition to any other relief to which it may be entitled.
14. Governing Law; Venue. This Guaranty shall be governed by and
construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California. Subject to the arbitration provision below, the state and federal courts
located in Los Angeles County, California shall have jurisdiction over any court action permitted under this Section. Any dispute arising
out of or relating to this Guaranty that the parties do not resolve shall be finally resolved by binding arbitration administered by
JAMS in Los Angeles County, California, before a single arbitrator under its Comprehensive Arbitration Rules, and judgment on the award
may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) Lender may seek injunctive or provisional relief
from a court to enforce the security interest or this Guaranty, and (b) Lender may bring in any court of competent jurisdiction any action
to collect or enforce this Guaranty, the Promissory Notes, the Asset Purchase Agreement, the Inventory Purchase Agreements, the Security
Agreement, or any security interest; the exclusive venue for any such court action is Los Angeles County, California. To the fullest
extent permitted by law, each Guarantor waives any right to a trial by jury in any proceeding arising out of or relating to this Guaranty.
15. Severability. If any provision of this Guaranty is held invalid
or unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect, and the invalid or unenforceable provision shall be
enforced to the maximum extent permitted by law.
16. Counterparts; Electronic Signatures. This Guaranty may be executed
in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, and all of which together shall constitute one instrument. Signatures delivered
by electronic transmission shall be effective as originals.
17. Events of Default; Cross-Default. Each of the following constitutes
an Event of Default under this Guaranty: (a) Borrower defaults under any Transaction Document; (b) any Guarantor fails to pay or perform
when required under this Guaranty; (c) any representation by a Guarantor is false or misleading in any material respect; (d) any Guarantor
repudiates or contests this Guaranty; or (e) any insolvency/bankruptcy event occurs with respect to Borrower or any Guarantor. An Event
of Default under this Guaranty constitutes a default under each other Transaction Document, and a default under any other Transaction
Document constitutes an Event of Default under this Guaranty.

EXHIBIT D-1 — INVENTORY PURCHASE AGREEMENT
(San Gabriel)
38
INVENTORY PURCHASE AGREEMENT
(SG Store Inventory Purchase Agreement)
This Inventory Purchase Agreement (this “Agreement”)
is entered into as of the applicable Operational Transfer Date for the Business Location under the APA (the “Effective Date”),
by and between Good Fortune Supermarket of San Gabriel, LP (“Seller”) and ENSON MARKET 33 SAN GABRIEL CA INC (“Buyer”).
Seller and Buyer may be referred to individually as a “Party” and collectively as the “Parties.”
This Agreement is one of the “Inventory
Purchase Agreements” and a “Transaction Document” under the certain Asset Purchase Agreement dated July 1, 2026, by
and among Buyer, Good Fortune Supermarket of San Gabriel, LP and Good Fortune Supermarket of Monrovia, LP (as amended, the “Asset
Purchase Agreement” or “APA”). Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Agreement have the meanings given to
them in the APA.
Store / Location: 137 S. San Gabriel Blvd, San
Gabriel, CA 91776 (the “Business Location”).
I. Purchase and Sale of Inventory.
Seller agrees to sell, assign, transfer and deliver
to Buyer, and Buyer agrees to purchase from Seller, all saleable inventory located at the store identified above as of the applicable
Operational Transfer Date, as determined by the Inventory Count (the “Purchased Inventory”). The Purchased Inventory does
not include expired, damaged, obsolete, recalled, consigned, third-party-owned, otherwise unsaleable inventory, or alcoholic-beverage
inventory unless its transfer, possession, and resale comply with all applicable California Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control requirements
and other applicable law, unless the Parties agree otherwise in writing. Title to and risk of loss for the Purchased Inventory pass to
Buyer upon completion of the Inventory Count on the applicable Operational Transfer Date, subject to Seller’s retained purchase-money
security interest under Section VII.
II. Third-Party Inventory Count and Determination.
The Parties shall cause a mutually acceptable
independent third-party inventory service provider to conduct a physical inventory count of the Purchased Inventory on or immediately
before the Operational Transfer Date for the Business Location under the APA, or on such other date as the Parties confirm in writing
in accordance with the APA (the “Inventory Count”).
The physical inventory count and valuation conducted
by the independent third-party inventory service provider shall be final and binding on the Parties, absent manifest error, and shall
determine the final dollar value of the Purchased Inventory (the “Final Inventory Amount”) without the need for any further
agreement, consent, or confirmation by either Party. “Manifest error” means a demonstrable arithmetic, clerical, or transcription
error apparent on the face of the count, and does not include disagreement with the methodology or judgment of the service provider. If
a Party in good faith identifies a manifest error within five (5) business days after the count results are delivered to the Parties,
the Parties shall promptly refer the matter back to the service provider, whose corrected determination shall be final and binding. Promptly
following the Inventory Count, the Parties shall record the Final Inventory Amount in writing, but such recording is administrative only
and is not a condition to the effectiveness of the Final Inventory Amount.
III. Purchase Price.
The purchase price for the Purchased Inventory
shall equal the Final Inventory Amount as determined by the Inventory Count pursuant to Section II. Final Inventory Amount: $______________.
39
IV. Payment Schedule.
Buyer shall pay the Final Inventory Amount in
eight (8) weekly installments. Each installment shall equal twelve and one-half percent (12.5%) of the Final Inventory Amount. The first
weekly installment shall be due on ____________________, and each subsequent installment
shall be due one week after the immediately preceding installment, unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Parties.
(a) Week 1: 12.5% of the Final Inventory Amount, in the
amount of $______________.
(b) Week 2: 12.5% of the Final Inventory Amount, in the
amount of $______________.
(c) Week 3: 12.5% of the Final Inventory Amount, in the
amount of $______________.
(d) Week 4: 12.5% of the Final Inventory Amount, in the
amount of $______________.
(e) Week 5: 12.5% of the Final Inventory Amount, in the
amount of $______________.
(f) Week 6: 12.5% of the Final Inventory Amount, in the
amount of $______________.
(g) Week 7: 12.5% of the Final Inventory Amount, in the
amount of $______________.
(h) Week 8: 12.5% of the Final Inventory Amount, in the
amount of $______________.
V. Payment Method.
All payments shall be made by wire transfer, ACH,
cashier’s check, or another method agreed by the Parties in writing. Payment instructions: ____________________________________________.
VI. Default.
If Buyer fails to make any installment payment
when due and such failure is not cured within ten (10) days after written notice from Seller, Seller may declare all remaining unpaid
amounts immediately due and payable and may exercise any remedies available under this Agreement, the APA, the Security Agreement, the
Promissory Notes, the other Inventory Purchase Agreement or applicable law. Overdue installments shall bear interest at 18% per annum
(or, if lower, the maximum rate permitted by applicable law) from the due date until paid, and Seller may exercise its rights and remedies
in the Collateral under Section VII, the Security Agreement, and Article 9 of the UCC and under applicable law. A default by Buyer under
this Agreement constitutes a default under each other Transaction Document, and a default by Buyer (in any capacity, including as Borrower
under either Promissory Note) under the APA, the Security Agreement, either Promissory Note, or the other Inventory Purchase Agreement,
or the Personal and Corporate Guaranty, or a default by any Guarantor under the Personal and Corporate Guaranty constitutes a default
under this Agreement.
40
VII. Secured Obligations.
Buyer’s obligation to pay the Final Inventory
Amount under this Agreement is secured by the Collateral pursuant to the APA and the Security Agreement, which govern the grant, attachment,
perfection, priority, and remedies (as used in this Agreement, “Collateral” has the meaning given to it in the APA and the
Security Agreement), and is guaranteed under the Personal and Corporate Guaranty. Buyer acknowledges and agrees that such obligation is
a purchase-money obligation incurred as the price of, and as value given to enable Buyer to acquire rights in, the Purchased Inventory,
and that Seller retains a purchase-money security interest in the Purchased Inventory and its proceeds securing that obligation. Buyer

INVENTORY PURCHASE AGREEMENT
(MV Store Inventory Purchase Agreement)
This Inventory Purchase Agreement (this “Agreement”)
is entered into as of the applicable Operational Transfer Date for the Business Location under the APA (the “Effective Date”),
by and between Good Fortune Supermarket of Monrovia, LP (“Seller”) and ENSON MARKET 34 MONROVIA CA INC (“Buyer”).
Seller and Buyer may be referred to individually as a “Party” and collectively as the “Parties.”
This Agreement is one of the “Inventory
Purchase Agreements” and a “Transaction Document” under the certain Asset Purchase Agreement dated July 1, 2026, by
and among Buyer, Good Fortune Supermarket of San Gabriel, LP and Good Fortune Supermarket of Monrovia, LP (as amended, the “Asset
Purchase Agreement” or “APA”). Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Agreement have the meanings given to
them in the APA.
Store / Location: 935 W Duarte Rd, Monrovia, CA
91016 (the “Business Location”).
I. Purchase and Sale of Inventory.
Seller agrees to sell, assign, transfer and deliver
to Buyer, and Buyer agrees to purchase from Seller, all saleable inventory located at the store identified above as of the applicable
Operational Transfer Date, as determined by the Inventory Count (the “Purchased Inventory”). The Purchased Inventory does
not include expired, damaged, obsolete, recalled, consigned, third-party-owned, otherwise unsaleable inventory, or alcoholic-beverage
inventory unless its transfer, possession, and resale comply with all applicable California Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control requirements
and other applicable law, unless the Parties agree otherwise in writing. Title to and risk of loss for the Purchased Inventory pass to
Buyer upon completion of the Inventory Count on the applicable Operational Transfer Date, subject to Seller’s retained purchase-money
security interest under Section VII.
II. Third-Party Inventory Count and Determination.
The Parties shall cause a mutually acceptable
independent third-party inventory service provider to conduct a physical inventory count of the Purchased Inventory on or immediately
before the applicable Operational Transfer Date for the Business Location under the APA, or on such other date as the Parties confirm
in writing in accordance with the APA (the “Inventory Count”).
The physical inventory count and valuation conducted
by the independent third-party inventory service provider shall be final and binding on the Parties, absent manifest error, and shall
determine the final dollar value of the Purchased Inventory (the “Final Inventory Amount”) without the need for any further
agreement, consent, or confirmation by either Party. “Manifest error” means a demonstrable arithmetic, clerical, or transcription
error apparent on the face of the count, and does not include disagreement with the methodology or judgment of the service provider. If
a Party in good faith identifies a manifest error within five (5) business days after the count results are delivered to the Parties,
the Parties shall promptly refer the matter back to the service provider, whose corrected determination shall be final and binding. Promptly
following the Inventory Count, the Parties shall record the Final Inventory Amount in writing, but such recording is administrative only
and is not a condition to the effectiveness of the Final Inventory Amount.
44
III. Purchase Price.
The purchase price for the Purchased Inventory
shall equal the Final Inventory Amount as determined by the Inventory Count pursuant to Section II. Final Inventory Amount: $______________.
IV. Payment Schedule.
Buyer shall pay the Final Inventory Amount in
eight (8) weekly installments. Each installment shall equal twelve and one-half percent (12.5%) of the Final Inventory Amount. The first
weekly installment shall be due on ____________________, and each subsequent installment
shall be due one week after the immediately preceding installment, unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Parties.
(a) Week 1: 12.5% of the Final Inventory Amount, in the
amount of $______________.
(b) Week 2: 12.5% of the Final Inventory Amount, in the
amount of $______________.

(g) Week 7: 12.5% of the Final Inventory Amount, in the
amount of $______________.
(h) Week 8: 12.5% of the Final Inventory Amount, in the
amount of $______________.
V. Payment Method.
All payments shall be made by wire transfer, ACH,
cashier’s check, or another method agreed by the Parties in writing. Payment instructions: ____________________________________________.
VI. Default.
If Buyer fails to make any installment payment
when due and such failure is not cured within ten (10) days after written notice from Seller, Seller may declare all remaining unpaid
amounts immediately due and payable and may exercise any remedies available under this Agreement, the APA, the Security Agreement, the
Promissory Notes, the other Inventory Purchase Agreement or applicable law. Overdue installments shall bear interest at 18% per annum
(or, if lower, the maximum rate permitted by applicable law) from the due date until paid, and Seller may exercise its rights and remedies
in the Collateral under Section VII, the Security Agreement, and Article 9 of the UCC and under applicable law. A default by Buyer under
this Agreement constitutes a default under each other Transaction Document, and a default by Buyer (in any capacity, including as Borrower
under either Promissory Note) under the APA, the Security Agreement, either Promissory Note, the other Inventory Purchase Agreement, or
the Personal and Corporate Guaranty, or a default by any Guarantor under the Personal and Corporate Guaranty constitutes a default under
this Agreement.
45
VII. Secured Obligations.
Buyer’s obligation to pay the Final Inventory
Amount under this Agreement is secured by the Collateral pursuant to the APA and the Security Agreement, which govern the grant, attachment,
perfection, priority, and remedies (as used in this Agreement, “Collateral” has the meaning given to it in the APA and the
Security Agreement), and is guaranteed under the Personal and Corporate Guaranty. Buyer acknowledges and agrees that such obligation is
a purchase-money obligation incurred as the price of, and as value given to enable Buyer to acquire rights in, the Purchased Inventory,
and that Seller retains a purchase-money security interest in the Purchased Inventory and its proceeds securing that obligation. Buyer
further acknowledges that Seller is not required to deliver possession of the Business Location until the UCC-1 covering inventory has
been filed before Buyer receives possession and the authenticated notifications required by UCC § 9-324(b) have been received, before
Buyer receives possession, by all holders of conflicting security interests in inventory of the same type, as provided in Section 1.2.5
of the APA, and Buyer shall, before execution and before the Operational Transfer Date, provide all information and execute all documents
reasonably necessary to permit Seller to file such financing statement and to send any required notifications to holders of conflicting
inventory security interests.
VIII. Governing Law.
This Agreement shall be governed by and construed
in accordance with the laws of the State of California. Subject to the arbitration provision below, the state and federal courts located
in Los Angeles County, California shall have jurisdiction over any court action permitted under this Section. Any dispute arising out
of or relating to this Agreement that the parties do not resolve shall be finally resolved by binding arbitration administered by JAMS

be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) either party may seek injunctive or provisional
relief from a court to enforce the security interest, and (b) Seller may bring in any court of competent jurisdiction any action to collect
or enforce this Agreement, the APA, the Promissory Notes, the Security Agreement, the other Inventory Purchase Agreement, the Personal
and Corporate Guaranty or any security interest; the exclusive venue for any such court action is Los Angeles County, California. To the

Exhibit
99.1
Maison Solutions Inc. Enters into Agreement to Divest San Gabriel
and Monrovia Store Operations as Part of Strategic Realignment Toward Operational Efficiency and AI-Enabled Growth
MONTEREY PARK, Calif. July 3, 2026 — Maison Solutions Inc. (Nasdaq:
MSS) (“Maison Solutions” or the “Company”), a specialty grocery retailer offering traditional Asian food and merchandise
to U.S. consumers, today announced that its subsidiaries have entered into an asset purchase agreement to divest the assets and operations
of the Company’s San Gabriel and Monrovia store locations for an aggregate purchase price of $4.5 million, excluding inventory,
which will be purchased separately pursuant to inventory purchase agreements. The closing of the transaction is expected to occur on or
before December 31, 2026, subject to the terms and conditions of the Asset Purchase Agreement. The transaction is part of the Company’s
ongoing strategic realignment to reduce exposure to underperforming store-level operations, improve operating efficiency, strengthen its
cash-flow profile, and focus management resources on higher-value opportunities in food retail, supply chain operations, and technology-enabled
growth.
The San Gabriel and Monrovia store operations had been operating at
a loss and required ongoing working capital and management resources. The Company believes that divesting these non-core and loss-generating
operations will allow Maison Solutions to reduce operating drag, improve overall financial discipline, and create a more focused store portfolio. Following the divestiture, the Company expects its continuing store base to have a stronger operating
profile, with reduced exposure to loss-generating locations and improved potential for store-level profitability, cash-flow generation,
and overall operating performance.
By reducing exposure to store-level losses and reallocating resources,
the Company expects to better align its operating structure with its broader strategic focus on efficiency, technology enablement, and
long-term value creation in the food retail and supply chain sector. The Company believes the food retail and supply chain industries are undergoing a meaningful technology upgrade cycle, with increasing
opportunities to apply automation, AI-driven workflow tools, data analytics, and other technology-enabled solutions to improve operational
visibility, inventory and procurement management, customer engagement, margin analysis, and operating decision-making.
The Company intends to continue evaluating AI-native and data-driven
solutions that may support workflow automation, operational visibility, inventory and procurement management, customer engagement, and
commercialization opportunities across retail, wholesale, logistics, and related operating workflows. The Company believes that a leaner operating structure and improved cash-flow profile may provide greater flexibility to evaluate and
pursue these strategic opportunities over time.
“This divestiture represents an important step in our effort
to simplify Maison Solutions’ business and improve the Company’s operating profile,” said John Xu, Chief Executive Officer
of Maison Solutions. “The San Gabriel and Monrovia store operations had been generating losses, and we believe exiting these non-core
operations will allow us to better focus our resources on improving profitability, strengthening cash flow, and evaluating new growth
opportunities. We remain committed to disciplined capital allocation and believe that a leaner operating structure can better support
the Company’s next stage of development, including potential opportunities in technology-enabled and AI-related business areas.”
About Maison Solutions Inc.
Maison Solutions Inc. is a U.S.-based specialty grocery retailer offering
traditional Asian food and merchandise, particularly to members of Asian-American communities. The Company is committed to providing Asian
fresh produce, meat, seafood, and other daily necessities in a manner that caters to traditional Asian-American family values and cultural
norms, while also accounting for the new and faster-paced lifestyle of younger generations and the diverse makeup of the communities in
which the Company operates. Since its formation in 2019, the Company has acquired equity interests in four traditional Asian supermarkets
in the Los Angeles, California area, operating under the brand name HK Good Fortune, and three supermarkets in the Phoenix and Tucson,
Arizona metro areas, operating under the brand name Lee Lee International For more information about Maison Solutions, please visit www.maisonsolutionsinc.com.
