Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On August 8, 2026 (the “Effective Date”), Scilex Holding Company (the “Company”) entered into a Promissory Note (Revolving Line of Credit) (the “Note”) with Vivasor, Inc. (“Vivasor”), as borrower, pursuant to which the Company established in favor of Vivasor an uncommitted revolving line of credit in a maximum aggregate principal amount of up to $20,000,000 (the “Maximum Credit Amount”). The Note has a stated maturity of 120 months from the Effective Date (the “Maturity Date”). The Note evidences a revolving credit facility under which Vivasor may, from time to time prior to the Maturity Date, request advances (“Drawdowns”) in multiple borrowings, provided that the aggregate outstanding principal balance of all Drawdowns at any time shall not exceed the Maximum Credit Amount. Amounts repaid under the Note may be reborrowed, subject to the terms of the Note. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Note is uncommitted and the Company has no obligation to fund any Drawdown; each Drawdown will be funded only if, when and to the extent agreed by the Company in its sole discretion.
Any Drawdown that the Company agrees to fund may be funded, as determined by the Company, in (i) cash, (ii) freely tradable securities of the Company, (iii) shares of common stock of Datavault AI, Inc. currently held by the Company or its subsidiaries, or (iv) any combination of the foregoing. Borrowings under the Note bear interest on the outstanding principal balance at a rate of 5% per annum, with interest accruing on each Drawdown from the date such Drawdown is funded. All outstanding principal, together with all accrued and unpaid interest, is due and payable in full on the Maturity Date. Vivasor may prepay the Note, in whole or in part, at any time without penalty or premium. The Note provides that it shall become immediately due and payable upon the occurrence of certain customary events of default.
Dr. Henry Ji, Ph.D., the Company’s current Chief Executive Officer, President and Chairperson, currently serves as the Chief Executive Officer of Vivasor. The Note was approved by the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) and the Audit Committee of the Company’s Board.
A copy of the Note is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference. The foregoing description of the Note does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Note.
