As previously reported, on May 16, 2023, Sadot Group Inc. (the “Company”) through its wholly owned subsidiary, Sadot LLC (“Sadot”) entered into various agreements providing that Sadot will ultimately acquire 70% of a special purpose vehicle which in turn holds 4,942 acres (2000 hectares) of producing agricultural land along with buildings and related assets located within the Mkushi Farm Block of Zambia’s Region II agricultural zone (the “Farm”) for a purchase price of approximately USD $8.5 million.
In connection with the above transaction, on May 16, 2023, the parties and Chibesakunda & Co., as escrow agent (the “Escrow Agent”) entered into an Escrow Agreement pursuant to which the Escrow Agent will hold all documentation required to allot Sadot 70% of Sadot Zambia, documentation required to transfer the Farm to Sadot Zambia and USD $3.5 million contributed by Sadot.
