Material Changes
The primary material change is the expansion of Inpixon's product suite to include a direct-to-end-user application layer via The CXApp. This acquisition enables the company to offer a comprehensive workplace experience and event app solution, aiming to increase average selling price, annual recurring revenue, and customer retention. Additionally, Leon Papkoff, a founder of The CXApp, has joined Inpixon as Executive Vice President leading the new division.
Outlook, Risks, and Contingencies
Management Commentary: Management views the acquisition as a critical step to connect with end users and deliver a higher value proposition in the indoor positioning market.

- Indemnification: Sellers are required to indemnify the Company for breaches of representations and warranties, with a $25,000 threshold (except for fraud). The Company's indemnification obligations to sellers are capped at the aggregate purchase price.
- Regulatory and Stockholder Approval: If stockholder approval is required for the issuance of earnout shares and not received, the payment may be made in cash. Sellers are subject to lock-up restrictions on selling their acquired shares.
- Forward-Looking Statements: The filing includes standard disclaimers that actual results may differ materially from expectations due to various uncertainties.
