**Item 1. Description of Registrant's Securities to be Registered.**

On December 15, 2025, the Board of Directors (the "Board") of Guardforce AI Co., Limited (the "Company") authorized the grant of one right (a "Right") for each outstanding ordinary share, par value $0.12 per share, of the Company (the "Ordinary Shares"), to shareholders of record as of the close of business on December 15, 2025.

Each Right entitles the registered holder to acquire from the Company one preferred share, par value $0.12 per share (a "Preferred Share"), at a purchase price of $8.44 per Preferred Share, subject to adjustment. The Rights will be issued pursuant to a Rights Agreement, dated as of December 15, 2025 (the "Rights Agreement"), between the Company and VStock Transfer, LLC, as rights agent.

The Rights will initially be attached to all outstanding Ordinary Shares and will separate and become exercisable upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Rights Agreement, including the occurrence of certain events involving the acquisition by a person or group of a specified percentage of the Company's voting power or the commencement of certain tender or exchange offers. Upon the occurrence of such events, holders (other than the acquiring person or group and certain related persons) will be entitled to purchase, at the then-effective purchase price and subject to the terms of the Rights Agreement, Ordinary Shares or other securities, cash, or property as described in the Rights Agreement. The Rights are redeemable and exchangeable in certain circumstances and will expire as provided in the Rights Agreement.

The Rights Agreement (which includes the form of Rights Certificate as Exhibit A, the form of Summary of Rights as Exhibit B and, the form of Certificate of Designation as Exhibit C) is attached hereto as an exhibit and is hereby incorporated herein by reference. The description of the Rights and the Rights Agreement is incorporated by reference herein to the Company's Report on Form 6-K, dated December 19, 2025 and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Rights Agreement and such exhibits thereto.
