Item 1.02 Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement

On November 21, 2024, CV Sciences, Inc. (the “Company”) announced that it entered into a definitive Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) by and among the Company, Extract Labs Inc., a Colorado corporation (“Extract Labs”), Craig Henderson (“Henderson”) and Higher Love Wellness Company, LLC (“Higher Love” and together with Extract Labs and Henderson, the “Sellers”) to purchase all of the outstanding shares of Extract Labs from the Sellers. Disclosure of the terms and conditions of the Purchase Agreement that are material to the Company was included in Item 1.01 of the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on November 21, 2024, and is incorporated herein by reference.

On February 5, 2025, the Company received an electronic mail message from Henderson indicating that the Sellers were unable to move forward with the closing under the Purchase Agreement due to the alleged failure to receive a bank consent and were apparently terminating the Purchase Agreement. The Company disputes the Sellers’ right to terminate the Purchase Agreement and the Company reserves all of its rights under the Purchase Agreement. The Company is presently evaluating its options related to the Sellers’ purported termination of the Purchase Agreement.
