Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On July 28, 2026, Forum Markets, Incorporated (“Forum”), through its newly formed wholly-owned subsidiary, Eurus Aerospace Token I LLC (the “Company”), acquired one CFM56-7B aircraft engine, together with all parts and engine records associated therewith (the “Engine”), from Aero Engine Solutions, Inc. (“Aero Engine”), pursuant to the terms of an Engine Sale and Purchase Agreement, dated July 27, 2026 (the “Purchase Agreement”). The Engine was acquired for a purchase price of $11.65 million, which was payable in cash.
Concurrently with the acquisition, the Engine was placed on lease pursuant to an Aircraft Engine Lease Agreement, dated July 29, 2026, with a major airline, as lessee, entered into by the Company, as lessor.
In connection with the purchase, the Company, as owner, and Aero Engine, as servicer (in such capacity, the “Servicer”), also entered into a Servicing Agreement Supplement dated July 27, 2026, whereby the Servicer agreed to manage the Engine on behalf of the Company during the duration of the above-referenced lease, in exchange for a servicing fee, and which also provided for the right of the Company (but not the obligation) to require the Servicer (or the Servicer’s designated affiliate) to purchase the Engine from the Company for a an option price, following the expiration or earlier termination of the lease with respect to the Engine; and the right of the Servicer (but not the obligation) to require the Company to sell the Engine to the Servicer (or the Servicer’s designated affiliate), in each case provided that the Engine is in the condition required by the terms of the agreement.
The foregoing description of the Purchase Agreement is not complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by reference to, the Purchase Agreement filed herewith as Exhibit 10.1, which is incorporated in this Item 1.01 by reference in its entirety.
