Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Treasure Global Inc (TGL) entered into three Software Development Agreements on August 26, 2026 with Mestiz Technology Sdn Bhd, E Argo Digital Sdn Bhd and Add2Cart Commerce Pte Ltd to build a Lifestyle Membership and Experience Platform, including source code, documentation and cloud infrastructure.

Each agreement carries a US$1,000,000 software development fee, for US$3,000,000 in aggregate, payable in milestones of US$500,000 at signing, US$400,000 after user acceptance testing and US$100,000 at go-live. Treasure Global may pay each milestone in cash, TGL common stock, or a combination, with any shares priced at the prior day’s closing price and issued as restricted stock for six months under Rule 144.

The three-month terms include rights to terminate for breach, insolvency or extended force majeure, liquidated delay damages of 2% of the fee per week capped at 10% per phase, full vesting of all intellectual property in Treasure Global, developer indemnities (including for IP infringement), and a requirement to refund all fees within 14 days if the software repeatedly fails acceptance testing.

Filing Explained

The US$3 million fee may be paid in stock, but this filing reports no completed issuance, so dilution is not yet established.

The August 26, 2026 agreements are executed, but the filing does not disclose that any TGL shares have been issued; stock is described only as a possible form of future milestone payment.

Although Item 3.02 is headed “Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities,” its text says shares would be issued and applies only to shares issued pursuant to the agreements, so this filing does not establish that a sale or issuance occurred.

The filing sets a total software-development fee of US$3,000,000; the latest supplied quarterly figure reports US$2,913,960 of cash and equivalents at March 31, 2026, and because those figures have different dates and the fee may be paid in cash, stock, or both, current funding capacity cannot be established from them.

Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement Business
The company signed a significant contract such as a merger agreement, credit facility, or major partnership.
Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities Securities
The company sold equity securities in a private placement or other unregistered transaction.
Item 9.01 Financial Statements and Exhibits Exhibits
Financial statements, pro forma financial information, or exhibit attachments filed with this report.
Software Development Fee per Agreement US$1,000,000 Fee for each of the three Software Development Agreements
Aggregate Software Development Fees US$3,000,000 Total fees across the three Software Development Agreements
Milestone Payment at Effective Date US$500,000 First milestone per agreement upon the Effective Date
Milestone Payment at User Acceptance Testing US$400,000 Second milestone per agreement upon completion of user acceptance testing
Milestone Payment at Go-Live US$100,000 Final milestone per agreement upon completion of go-live
Agreement Term 3 months Term of each Software Development Agreement from August 26, 2026
Liquidated Damages Rate for Delay 2% per week Applied to applicable Software Development Fees per week of delay per phase
Liquidated Damages Cap per Phase 10% Maximum liquidated damages per phase on delayed delivery
Software Development Agreement technical
"entered into three (3) separate Software Development Agreements"
Rule 144 regulatory
"subject to Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended"
Rule 144 is a U.S. securities regulation that sets conditions under which restricted or insider-held shares can be legally resold to the public, such as required holding periods, availability of public information, limits on how much can be sold at once, and certain filing requirements. For investors it matters because it determines when previously locked-up shares can enter the market — like a release valve that can increase supply, affect share price, and signal insider intent.
Regulation S regulatory
"and/or Regulation S promulgated thereunder, based on representations"
Regulation S is a set of rules that allows companies to sell securities (like shares or bonds) to investors outside the United States without having to follow all U.S. securities laws. It matters because it makes it easier for companies to raise money from international investors while still complying with U.S. regulations.
Section 4(a)(2) regulatory
"exemptions from registration under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act"
Section 4(a)(2) is a part of U.S. securities laws that allows companies to sell their stock directly to certain investors without registering the sale with regulators. This process is often used for private placements, making it easier and faster for companies to raise money from knowledgeable or institutional investors. It matters to investors because it provides an alternative way to buy shares, often with fewer disclosures and lower costs.
liquidated damages financial
"In the event of delay, liquidated damages of 2% of the applicable"
A pre-agreed sum that one party must pay if it breaks a contract, chosen so both sides avoid arguing over the exact amount of loss later. Think of it like a fixed cancellation fee for a reservation: it makes potential costs predictable. For investors, liquidated damages matter because they create a known financial liability that can affect cash flow, contract risk, balance-sheet exposure and deal valuations.
Event of Force Majeure other
"If an Event of Force Majeure continues for an aggregate period"

Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On August 26, 2026, Treasure Global Inc, a Delaware corporation (the “Company” or “TGL”), entered into three (3) separate Software Development Agreements (each, an “Agreement” and collectively, the “Agreements”) with (i) Mestiz Technology Sdn Bhd, a company incorporated under the laws of Malaysia (“Mestiz Tech”), (ii) E Argo Digital Sdn Bhd, a company incorporated under the laws of Malaysia (“E Argo”), and (iii) Add2Cart Commerce Pte Ltd, a company incorporated under the laws of Singapore (“Add2Cart” and together with Mestiz Tech and E Argo, the “Developers”).

 

The Company engaged each Developer to design, develop, implement and deliver a Lifestyle Membership and Experience Platform (the “Software”) including all source code, documentation, cloud infrastructure configurations, APIs, databases, and related deliverables.

 

The Software Development Fee is US$1,000,000 per Agreement (US$3,000,000 in aggregate), payable in milestone payments: (1) US$500,000 upon the Effective Date; (2) US$400,000 upon completion of user acceptance testing; and (3) US$100,000 upon completion of go-live.

 

The Company has the absolute and sole discretion to determine whether payment shall be satisfied in cash (USD), TGL Shares (common stock), or any combination thereof. If paid in TGL Shares, the issue price is based on the closing price of TGL common stock on the trading day immediately preceding the relevant payment date, and shares are issued on a restricted basis for six (6) months, subject to Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

 

Each Agreement has a term of three (3) months from the Effective Date (August 26, 2026), unless earlier terminated in accordance with its terms.

 

Either party may terminate an Agreement immediately upon written notice in the event of a material breach that is incapable of being remedied or that remains unremedied after thirty (30) days’ prior written notice. Termination may also occur upon the insolvency, winding-up, or cessation of business of either party, or by mutual agreement. Either party may also terminate upon thirty (30) calendar days’ written notice. If the Software fails to conform to acceptance testing criteria after more than three (3) repeated user acceptance tests, the Company may terminate the Agreement, and the Developer has irrevocably agreed to refund all Software Development Fees paid within fourteen (14) days of termination.

 

All intellectual property rights in the Software, Deliverables, source code, documentation, and all materials developed vest absolutely and exclusively in the Company upon creation.

 

Each Developer has irrevocably and unconditionally agreed to indemnify the Company against all losses, costs, liabilities, claims, charges, actions, proceedings, damages, and expenses arising from the provision of services, including intellectual property infringement claims.

 

Neither party will be liable for economic losses (including loss of profits or contracts), indirect or consequential damages, loss of goodwill or reputation, or wasted management/staff time.

 

In the event of delay, liquidated damages of 2% of the applicable Software Development Fees per week of delay per Phase apply, capped at 10% per Phase. Confidentiality obligations survive for two (2) years following termination of the applicable Agreement.

 

The Agreements are governed by the laws of Malaysia. Any disputes will be resolved by the courts of Malaysia.

 

If an Event of Force Majeure continues for an aggregate period exceeding three (3) months, either party may terminate the Agreement without liability (except for antecedent obligations).

 

Each Developer shall provide 90 days of post-delivery support from acceptance of each Phase.

 

The foregoing description of the Agreements does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the form of Software Development Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
