Item 1.01            Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

The information set forth under Item 5.02 below is incorporated in its entirety herein by reference.

Item 5.02.           Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

On October 1, 2025, Universal Safety Products, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the “Company”) entered into an employment agreement (the “Agreement”) with Harvey B. Grossblatt, the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer, to continue to serve as the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer through July 31, 2027.

Pursuant to the Agreement, Mr. Grossblatt will be paid a base salary of $352,286 per annum (the “Base Salary”). Additionally, Mr. Grossblatt is entitled to bonus compensation based upon milestone amounts of the Company’s receipt of gross proceeds from capital raises from the date of the Agreement through July 31, 2027, with the first bonus equal to $2.5 million upon receipt of gross proceeds of at least $100 million, with additional bonuses of $1.0 million for each $100 million of gross proceeds between $200 million and $900 million, with a final potential bonus of $500,000 upon gross proceeds of $1 billion, which would result in total bonus payments to Mr. Grossblatt of $10 million. Mr. Grossblatt is also entitled to life, health and disability insurance benefits, medical reimbursement, automobile allowance, and Company paid retirement plan contributions.

If the Agreement is terminated by Mr. Grossblatt for good reason, Mr. Grossblatt is entitled to receive his compensation through any balance of the employment term plus a lump sum payment equal to his last 12 months Base Salary, health benefits for three years, and an additional lump sum payment payable on each of the first three anniversaries of the termination equal to the 401(k) plan contribution the Company would have made on behalf of the Company had he remained employed by the Company.

If Mr. Grossblatt’s employment is terminated following or in anticipation of a “change of control” of the Company, Mr. Grossblatt will be entitled to receive a lump sum payment equal to his base salary for the balance of the Agreement’s term plus three times Mr. Grossblatt’s last 12 months Base Salary. In addition, Mr. Grossblatt is entitled to receive health benefits for three years, and an additional lump sum payment payable on the anniversary of the termination equal to the 401(k) plan contribution the Company would have made on behalf of the Company had he remained employed by the Company for three years. In the event of a change in control Mr. Grossblatt will receive an amount equal to three times his Base Salary for the last 12 months, limited to 2.99 times Mr. Grossblatt’s average annual taxable compensation from the Company which is included in his gross income for the five taxable years of the Company ending before the date on which the change of control occurs.

If the Agreement is terminated by the Company due to Mr. Grossblatt’s death, Mr. Grossblatt’s estate is entitled to receive a lump sum payment equal to his base salary for the greater of the balance of the Agreement’s term or one year, reduced by any individual life insurance benefits the premiums for which are paid for by the Company, plus the amount of the Company’s last 401(k) plan contribution made on behalf of Mr. Grossblatt. In addition, Mr. Grossblatt’s estate is entitled to the health insurance and medical reimbursement benefits for the longer of the balance of the term or three years following the date of death, or the cash equivalent thereof.

If the Agreement is terminated by the Company due to Mr. Grossblatt’s disability, Mr. Grossblatt is entitled to the continuation of the payment of his base salary for the balance of the term, reduced by any group or individual disability income insurance benefits the premiums for which are paid for by the Company and Social Security disability benefits paid to Mr. Grossblatt. In addition, Mr. Grossblatt is entitled to the health insurance and medical reimbursement benefits and a payment equal to the 401(k) plan contribution the Company would have made on behalf of the Company had he remained employed by the Company, for the longer of the balance of the term or three years following the date of disability, or the cash equivalent thereof.

The Agreement generally prohibits Mr. Grossblatt from competing with the Company during the term and during any subsequent period during which he receives compensation from the Company.

The Employment Agreement includes a “clawback” provision in which Mr. Grossblatt agrees that the Company can recoup any compensation or benefits provided to him that are required by applicable law to be subject to recovery or recoupment.

The foregoing description of the Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Agreement filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.
