or the “Buyer’s Guarantor”) and WisdomTree International Holdings Ltd (the “Buyer”), a wholly-owned subsidiary
of the Company, entered into a Sale and Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Atlantic House Holdings Limited,
a private limited company incorporated in England and Wales (“Atlantic House”), the shareholders of Atlantic House (together,
the “Sellers”), the EBT Trustee and the Individual Guarantor (each as defined in the Purchase Agreement), pursuant to which
the Buyer agreed to acquire from the Sellers all of the issued and outstanding share capital of Atlantic House (the “Acquisition”),
subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Buyer
has agreed to acquire Atlantic House for £150.0 million (approximately $200.0 million) in cash payable at the closing of the Acquisition
(the “Closing”), plus additional consideration in respect of certain working capital loans (part of which is payable at Closing
and part of which is deferred), and in each case subject to customary post-closing adjustments, including adjustments to cash, indebtedness
and working capital. The Buyer, the Buyer’s Guarantor, the Sellers
and the Individual Guarantor each have made customary warranties in the Purchase Agreement with respect to their respective abilities
to enter into and consummate the Acquisition. In addition, concurrently with the execution of the Purchase Agreement, certain of the
Sellers entered into a Management Warranty Deed with the Buyer, pursuant to which such Sellers provided warranties relating to the business
of Atlantic House, including with respect to tax matters. The Buyer and the Sellers have agreed under the Purchase Agreement to make
certain undertakings in seeking regulatory approvals and to maintain the confidentiality of certain information not otherwise required
to be disclosed under applicable law. The Sellers and Atlantic House also have agreed to carry on the business of Atlantic House in the
ordinary course consistent with past practice and not to take certain actions during the period between entry into the Purchase Agreement
and the Closing. The Sellers have agreed to certain non-competition and non-solicitation covenants. The Buyer also has agreed to matters
relating to the employment of continuing employees of Atlantic House Group Limited (“AHGL”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of
Atlantic House. The Sellers will be subject to customary warranties for transactions of this type, including with respect to breaches
of warranties and other specified matters; provided that the Buyer has obtained a warranty and indemnity insurance policy related to
certain risks associated with the Acquisition. The warranties given by the Sellers are subject to caps and time limits with respect to
breaches of certain warranties. The Buyer will be subject to limited warranties customary for a transaction of this type. The Buyer’s
Guarantor has agreed to guarantee the timely payment and performance of each of the obligations of the Buyer under the Purchase Agreement. The Acquisition is expected to close in the second
quarter of 2026, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of customary closing conditions, including obtaining regulatory approvals and
financing. In addition, the Acquisition includes a requirement for the CEO of Atlantic House to enter into an employment agreement with
AHGL. In addition, the Buyer has the right to terminate the Purchase Agreement if a material adverse change (a “MAC Event,”
as defined in the Purchase Agreement) occurs prior to Closing. The Purchase Agreement will terminate if the
Closing has not occurred on or prior to June 13, 2026, subject to the parties agreeing to extend such date. If the Buyer has not satisfied
the financing condition in full within 20 business days of the later of all other conditions being satisfied or waived in accordance
with the Purchase Agreement and May 4, 2026, then the Sellers may terminate the Purchase Agreement and the Buyer will be required to
pay certain of the Sellers £5.0 million (approximately $6.7 million). A copy of the Purchase Agreement and Management
Warranty Deed are filed as Exhibits 2.1 and 2.2, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K and are incorporated herein by reference.
