Item 1.02 Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement.
As previously disclosed, on July 13, 2025, Phunware, Inc. (the "Company") appointed Rahul Mewawalla, the Company's chairperson of the Board of Directors (the "Board"), as its Executive Chairman and Chief Artificial Intelligence (AI) Architect. In connection therewith, the Company entered into an Executive Chairman and Chief AI Architect Agreement with Mr. Mewawalla (the "Agreement") to provide executive advisory and AI services and executive support to the Company's new interim Chief Executive Officer.
On August 4, 2025, the Board formed a Special Committee (the "Committee") of independent directors Quyen Du and Elliot Han to consider the circumstances under which the Agreement was entered into and related matters. The Committee determined that based on information that emerged after the execution of the Agreement, there was a proper basis to rescind the Agreement and that it was in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders to rescind the Agreement. The Company therefore rescinded the Agreement, and notified Mr. Mewawalla of such rescission on August 7, 2025.
