Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Merger Agreement

The Business Combination

On January 23, 2026, Lake Superior Acquisition Corp. (the “Company” or “Lake Superior”) entered into a definitive Plan of Merger and Business Combination Agreement (the “Business Combination Agreement”) with Openmarkets Group Pty Ltd, an Australian proprietary limited company (“OMG”), and BMYG OMG Pty Ltd, an Australian proprietary limited company (the “Seller”) and such other persons who are contemplated to later join this Agreement as the “Purchaser” and “Merger Sub” therein, which are sometimes referred to herein individually as a “Party” and, collectively, as the “Parties.” All capitalized terms used herein and not defined shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Merger Agreement.

Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, the Parties will cause the Predecessor shall be merged with Merger Sub, the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub shall cease and Predecessor shall continue as the surviving corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Purchaser (the “Initial Merger”). As a result of the Initial Merger, (i) each issued and outstanding Company Share will convert into the right to receive one ordinary share of the Purchaser (the “Purchaser Shares”); (ii) each Company Unit shall convert into the right to receive one unit of the Purchaser, comprised of one Purchaser Share and one right to receive one-seventh of one Purchaser Share upon the Closing (each a “Purchaser Right”); and (iii) each Purchaser Right shall be converted into the right to receive one Purchaser Right. Following the Initial Merger, the Company and the Purchaser will cause the Company to liquidate, such that all assets of the Company are, or shall be, transferred to the Purchaser and all liabilities of the Company are, or shall be, assumed by the Purchaser (the “Liquidation”). Additionally, the Company will cause all of its contracts to be assigned to and assumed by the Purchaser. Following the Initial Merger, the Seller will contribute all of the issued and outstanding equity securities of OMG (the “OMG Shares”) to the Purchaser in exchange for approximately30,000,000 Purchaser Shares (the “Exchange Consideration”), which shares shall have a deemed value of $10.00 per share for the purposes of all calculations and adjustments under the Business Combination Agreement, with such Exchange Consideration subject to adjustment based on OMG’s net indebtedness, working capital, and indemnification obligations following the Closing as detailed in the Business Combination Agreement (the “Acquisition Contribution and Exchange”). Further, in addition to the Exchange Consideration, up to an additional 70,000,000 Purchaser Shares may be paid to the Seller based on certain milestone following the Closing as detailed in the Business Combination Agreement (the “Milestone Shares”). The Initial Merger, the Acquisition Contribution and Exchange and the other transactions to be consummated under the Merger Agreement are collectively referred to as the “Business Combination.”

The foregoing Initial Merger, Acquisition Contribution and Exchange and conversion of securities shall occur all upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Business Combination Agreement and in accordance with the provisions of applicable Law.

Milestone Shares and Incentive Plan

Following the closing of the Business Combination (the “Closing”) and in addition to the Exchange Consideration Shares, Purchaser shall

	1.	issue an aggregate of 30,000,000 Purchaser Shares (the “License Milestone Shares”) to the Seller upon the achievement of the following conditions (collectively, the “License Milestone”): (i) approval by ASIC of variances to OMG’s Australian Financial Services License to include (A) authorizations to provide general financial product advice in relation to non-cash payment products, and to deal in financial products, including issuing, acquiring, varying and disposing of non-cash payment products, and (B) an authorization to undertake market-making activities in respect of financial products, and (ii) approval by the Australian Transaction Reports and Analysis Centre of OMG’s registration as a Digital Currency Exchange provider;

	2.	The Purchaser shall issue to the Seller an aggregate of up to 40,000,000 Purchaser Shares (the “Performance Milestone Shares”). The aggregate value of the Performance Milestone Shares shall be determined by multiplying (i) the aggregate amount of assets of each client serviced by OMG pursuant to tokenization and/or real‑world asset contracts between OMG and such client, as of December 31, 2028, by (ii) 0.2. Each Purchaser Share issued as Performance Milestone Shares shall have a deemed value of $10.00 per share; provided, that the aggregate value of the Performance Milestone Shares shall not exceed $400,000,000; and

	3.	be entitled to set up an equity incentive pool, representing not less than 5% of the fully-diluted capitalization of the Purchaser immediately following the Closing, for the purpose of administration of share incentive awards to be granted to eligible participants including directors, officers, employees and consultants of the Combined Company under a share incentive plan to be adopted by resolution of the Purchaser’s board of directors or any committee appointed for this purpose by the Purchaser’s board of directors (the “Purchaser Incentive Plan”).
