**Item 1.02. Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement**

Banzai International, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("**Banzai**" or the "**Company**"), previously announced its entry into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "**Merger Agreemen**t"), dated January 22, 2025, with Act-On Software, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("**Act-On**"), and Banzai Passage Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Banzai ("**Merger Sub**"). Although the Company worked diligently to complete all closing conditions of the Merger Agreement, due to current market conditions, on June 6, 2025, Act-On served Banzai with a notice of termination to terminate the Merger Agreement and any related agreements (collectively, the "**Transaction Documents**"). We are filing this amendment to the original announcement on Form 8-K to disclose same. As per the Transaction Documents, within five (5) calendar days, the Company is required to pay certain termination fees including $500,000 in liquidated damages to cover certain transaction expenses Act-On incurred in connection with the merger contemplated by the Merger Agreement and $882,029.82 in additional interest and extension fees associated with one of Act-On's outstanding debts that the Company was going to payoff in connection with the merger contemplated by the Merger Agreement.
