Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
Partnership Agreement for Consulting Services
On October 31, 2025, Agassi Sports Entertainment Corp. (the “Company,” “us,” “we,” or “our”), entered into a Partnership Agreement for Consulting Services (the “Services Agreement”) and a Commitment Agreement (the “Commitment Agreement”) with IBM Norge AS (“IBM”). Pursuant to the Services Agreement, IBM will provide us certain consulting services to be described in one or more statements of work. The first statement of work, entered into simultaneously with the Services Agreement (“SoW 1”), provides for IBM to create a website, mobile application, e-commerce, and A.I.-powered video analysis model for the Company (the “A.I. Model”) designed to serve the racquet sports community and create multiple revenue streams between November 1, 2025 and June 30, 2026, in exchange for a total payment of $2,134,716, payable in monthly installments in accordance with the terms of SoW 1, including $100,000 within 15 days after invoice from IBM, for each of November and December 2025, and January and February 2026, with $204,387 due before February 28, 2026 and $613,161 before March 20, 2026, and $229,292 due for each of March through June 2026. We are also required to reimburse certain travel expenses, living expenses, and reasonable expenses incurred by IBM in connection with the services provided under SoW 1.
Pursuant to the Commitment Agreement, once the mobile application is launched and based on revenue projections provided by IBM, the Company is obligated to purchase additional services from IBM Consulting, a business unit of IBM, over a period beginning on or before June 30, 2026 and ending on October 31, 2030 (the “Commitment Period”). As additional consideration for IBM’s investment in providing the services under the Commitment Agreement, IBM will receive a performance bonus of between 2 and 2.5% (depending on the phase of services provided) of the Company’s net revenue derived from its agreements with IBM, minus costs from IBM. We have also agreed to discuss in good faith a possible appearance by Andre K. Agassi, our namesake and significant shareholder, at IBM, subject to Mr. Agassi’s approval. Additionally, IBM has agreed to provide us $2,953,000 in investments, including amounts provided in kind and in reduced rates, which is an IBM Consulting investment and not a cash investment, and IBM is not receiving any equity in the Company.
We have the right to terminate each of the Commitment Agreement and SoW 1 for convenience upon three months’ prior written notice to IBM, but any such termination will not be effective before the six-month anniversary of our entry into such agreement. In addition, if we terminate the Commitment Agreement for convenience, we must pay IBM a fee.
The A.I. Model being built by IBM Consulting pursuant to the engagement discussed above will be owned by the Company.
The foregoing description of the Service Agreement, Commitment Agreement, and SoW 1 does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Service Agreement, Commitment Agreement, and SoW 1 filed with this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibits 10.1 10.2, and 10.3, respectively, and incorporated herein by reference.
Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure
On November 5, 2025, the Company and IBM issued a press release announcing the transactions discussed above, a copy of which press release is furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated into this Item 7.01 by reference.
In accordance with General Instruction B.2 of Form 8-K, the information under this item and Exhibit 99.1 shall not be deemed filed for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, nor shall such information be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.
