Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On October 12, 2021, EKIMAS Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the "Company") entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the "SPA") between the Company and Reddington Partners LLC, a California limited liability company ("Reddington") providing for the purchase from the Company by Reddington of shares of the Company's common stock in two tranches. Pursuant to the SPA, each of Michael Adams, Michael Barretti, William J. O'Neill, Jr. and David Volpe (the "Principal Stockholders") entered into a Voting Agreement with Reddington (the "Voting Agreements").

The sale of the first tranche of 21,136,250 shares was consummated on October 12, 2021 (the "First Closing"). At the First Closing, the Principal Stockholders entered into the Voting Agreements with Reddington, covering an aggregate of 4,434,240 shares. As a result of these transactions, Reddington obtained ownership or voting power over a total of 25,570,490 shares, constituting 51.8% of the total outstanding shares. Accordingly, Reddington became the majority stockholder of the Company.

Pursuant to the SPA, the Company will proceed to effectuate a 1-for 50 reverse stock split (the "Reverse Split"). Within two business days of the Reverse Split and satisfaction of the other conditions set forth in the SPA, Reddington will purchase an additional tranche of shares of common stock from the Company such that after the issuance thereof Reddington shall own 90% of the total issued and outstanding shares of the Company's common stock. As of the closing of the second tranche purchase (the "Second Closing"), the Voting Agreements will terminate.

The purchase price for both tranches of shares is $400,000. At the First Closing, Reddington paid the Company $200,000, $100,000 of which was required to be applied to the payment of accrued and unpaid liabilities of the Company as of the First Closing date, and $100,000 of which is for working capital purposes. The remaining $200,000 was deposited to an escrow account with an independent escrow agent (the "Escrow Account"). At the Second Closing, if the $100,000 designated to pay for accrued and unpaid liabilities was not sufficient, funds from the Escrow Account will be used to pay the remainder of such liabilities. At the Second Closing, any funds remaining after the payment of the accrued and unpaid liabilities, if any, and all funds in the Escrow Account, will be combined and used solely for a special one-time cash distribution (the "Special Distribution") by the Company, through a paying agent reasonably satisfactory to Reddington, to only those Company stockholders of record as of October 11, 2021, net of any costs of associated with making the Special Distribution. Reddington and its Affiliates expressly waive any right to participate in the Special Distribution.

Mr. Yankowitz does not receive any compensation from the Company. However, he is Of Counsel to the law firm Shumaker Mallory LLP, which renders legal services to the Company. The Company has entered into an indemnification agreement with Mr. Yankowitz as indemnitee, providing for indemnification to the full extent permitted by the Delaware law if (a) the indemnitee is a party to or threatened to be made a party to or otherwise involved in any legal proceeding, for any and all expenses, actually and reasonably incurred by the indemnitee in connection with the investigation, defense, settlement, or appeal of such proceeding or (b) if indemnitee is a party to or threatened to be made a party to or otherwise involved in any legal proceeding by or in the right of us to procure a judgment in its favor, against any and all expenses actually and reasonably incurred by the indemnitee in connection with the investigation, defense, settlement, or appeal of such proceedings.

However, indemnification will not be provided for (i) remuneration paid to the indemnitee if it is determined by final judgment or other final adjudication that such remuneration was in violation of law (and, in this respect, both us and the indemnitee have been advised that the Securities and Exchange Commission believes that indemnification for liabilities arising under the federal securities laws is against public policy and is, therefore, unenforceable and that claims for indemnification should be submitted to appropriate courts for adjudication); (ii) a final judgment rendered against the indemnitee for an accounting, disgorgement or repayment of profits made from the purchase or sale by indemnitee of our securities against indemnitee or in connection with a settlement by or on behalf of indemnitee to the extent it is acknowledged by indemnitee and us that such amount paid in settlement resulted from indemnitee's conduct from which indemnitee received monetary personal profit pursuant to the provisions of Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act or other provisions of any federal, state or local statute or rules and regulations thereunder; (iii) a final judgment or other final adjudication that the indemnitee's conduct was in bad faith, knowingly fraudulent or deliberately dishonest or constituted willful misconduct (but only to the extent of such specific determination); or (iv) on account of conduct that is established by a final judgment as constituting a breach of indemnitee's duty of loyalty to us or resulting in any personal profit or advantage to which indemnitee is not legally entitled.
