Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On September 2, 2026, Reliance Global Group, Inc. (the “Company”), its wholly owned subsidiary Southwestern Montana Insurance Center, LLC, a Montana limited liability company (“SMI”), and Scali, LLC, an Arizona limited liability company, dba Scali Insurance Group (the “Buyer”), entered into a Purchase and Contribution Agreement, dated to be effective as of September 1, 2026 (the “Purchase Agreement”), pursuant to which, structured as a combination equity purchase and asset purchase, (i) the Company agreed to sell to the Buyer 100% of the issued and outstanding membership interests of SMI (the “Equity Interests”) and (ii) SMI agreed to sell to the Buyer an undivided 100% interest in SMI’s book of insurance business and SMI’s other tangible and intangible business assets, in each case free and clear of all liens and encumbrances (collectively, the “Transaction”). Following the closing of the Transaction (the “Closing”), SMI will continue as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Buyer.

 

The aggregate consideration payable by the Buyer under the Purchase Agreement is $2,625,000 in cash, based on a multiple of 8.75 times pro forma EBITDA of $300,000, payable in full at the Closing, plus additional contingent consideration, if any, equal to the product of (a) 8.75, multiplied by (b) the amount, if any, by which EBITDA attributable to the acquired business for the twelve-month period beginning September 1, 2026 and ending August 31, 2027 exceeds $300,000 (the “Additional Consideration”). The Additional Consideration is not subject to any cap and, if payable, is due within 90 days following the first anniversary of the Closing. The Company’s right to receive the Additional Consideration is subordinated pursuant to a Subordination Letter Agreement entered into in connection with the Purchase Agreement.

 

Under the Purchase Agreement, the Closing is deemed effective as of 12:01 a.m. Mountain Time on September 1, 2026 for accounting purposes; provided that executed closing instruments are held in escrow by the parties’ respective counsel and the Closing is deemed to occur only upon the Buyer’s payment of the cash purchase price in full, which payment must be made no later than September 11, 2026, failing which the escrowed instruments will be returned and the seller parties may terminate the Purchase Agreement.

 

The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, covenants, and indemnification provisions, as well as confidentiality, non-piracy, non-competition, and non-solicitation covenants of the Company and its affiliates, including a covenant not to compete with the acquired business within the State of Montana and within a five-mile radius of SMI’s office for the period prescribed in the Purchase Agreement. As conditions precedent to the Closing, each of Julie Blockey and Jessica Blockey, SMI’s managing directors, entered into a Managing Director Agreement with the Buyer or its subsidiary. There is no material relationship between the Company or its affiliates and the Buyer, other than in respect of the Purchase Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby.

 

The foregoing description of the Purchase Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Purchase Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 2.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
