Item 1.01. Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.
As previously reported, on January 16, 2026, Allegro
Merger Corp., a Delaware corporation (“Allegro”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (“Merger Agreement”)
with SEEQC, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company” or “SeeQC”), and SEEQC Merger Sub, Inc.,
a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of SeeQC (“Merger Sub”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Allegro
will merge with and into Merger Sub, with Allegro surviving the merger (the “Merger”). As a result of the Merger, Allegro
will become a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of SeeQC and the security holders of Allegro will become security holders of SeeQC. Capitalized
terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings ascribed to them in Allegro’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 16, 2026.
In connection with the execution of the Merger
Agreement, Allegro entered into subscription agreements (“Subscription Agreements”) with certain accredited investors
(collectively, the “Investors”), pursuant to which Allegro will, substantially concurrently with, and contingent upon,
the consummation of the Merger, issue shares of Allegro Common Stock to the Investors at a price of $5.00 per share, for aggregate gross
proceeds to Allegro of approximately $65 million. The shares of Allegro Common Stock sold in the PIPE will be converted into shares of
SeeQC Common Stock in connection with the Merger. The closing of the Subscription Agreements is conditioned upon, among other things,
(i) the substantially concurrent consummation of the Merger and (ii) the accuracy of all representations and warranties of Allegro
in the Subscription Agreements (subject to certain bring-down standards).
On March 26, 2026, Allegro entered into an additional
Subscription Agreement with a new accredited investor (the “New Investor”) pursuant to which Allegro will, substantially
concurrently with, and contingent upon, the consummation of the Merger, issue shares of Allegro Common Stock to the New Investor at a
price of $5.00 per share, for aggregate gross proceeds to Allegro of $0.5 million.
The shares of Allegro Common Stock were offered and will be sold to the New Investor in reliance on the exemption from registration provided
by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.
The foregoing summary of the Subscription Agreements
is qualified in its entirety by reference to the text of the form of Subscription Agreement, which is attached as Exhibit 10.1 hereto
and is incorporated herein by reference.

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking
Statements
Certain statements herein and the documents incorporated herein by reference may constitute “forward-looking statements” within
the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 27A of the Securities Act, and Rule 175 promulgated thereunder,
and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Rule 3b-6 promulgated thereunder, which statements involve inherent
risks and uncertainties. Examples of forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements with respect to the expectations,
hopes, beliefs, intentions, plans, prospects, financial results of strategies regarding Allegro, SeeQC, the Transactions and statements
regarding the anticipated benefits and timing of the completion of the Transactions, the upside potential and opportunity for investors,
regulatory conditions, future financial condition and performance and expected financial impacts of the Transactions, the satisfaction
of closing conditions to the Merger and the PIPE, and SeeQC’s and Allegro’s expectations, intentions, strategies, assumptions
or beliefs about future events, results of operations or performance that do not solely relate to historical or current facts. These forward-looking
statements generally are identified by the words “believe,” “project,” “expect,” “anticipate,”
“estimate,” “intend,” “strategy,” “future,” “opportunity,” “potential,”
“plan,” “may,” “should,” “will,” “would,” “will be,” “will
continue,” “will likely result,” and similar expressions. Forward-looking statements are based on assumptions as of
the time they are made and are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors that are difficult to predict with regard to timing,
extent, likelihood and degree of occurrence, which could cause actual results to differ materially from anticipated results expressed
or implied by such forward-looking statements. Such risks, uncertainties and assumptions, include, but are not limited to:
the risk that the Transactions may not be completed in a timely manner or at all;
─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
the failure by the parties to satisfy the conditions to the consummation of the PIPE and the Merger, including shareholder approvals;
the failure to realize the anticipated benefits of the Transactions;
the outcome of any potential legal proceedings that may be instituted against SeeQC, Allegro, or others following announcement of the Transactions;
───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
the failure of SeeQC to obtain or maintain the listing of its securities on any stock exchange on which the securities of SeeQC will be listed after closing of the Merger;
costs related to the Transactions and as a result of SeeQC becoming a public company;
technological developments and changes in business, market, financial, political and regulatory conditions;
───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
the risk that after consummation of the Merger, SeeQC could experience difficulties managing its growth and expanding operations;
challenges in implementing SeeQC’s business plan due to operational challenges, significant competition, regulatory changes or other factors;
─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
those risk factors discussed in documents of SeeQC and/or Allegro filed, or to be filed, with the SEC.
The foregoing list of risk factors is not exhaustive.
You should carefully consider the foregoing factors and the other risks and uncertainties described in the “Risk Factors”
section of Allegro’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, and the prospectus that will be filed by SeeQC,
and other documents filed or to be filed by SeeQC and Allegro from time to time with the SEC. These filings do or will identify and address
other important risks and uncertainties that could cause actual events and results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking
statements. There may be additional risks that none of SeeQC or Allegro presently know or currently believe are immaterial that could
also cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements speak
only as of the date they are made. Readers are cautioned not to put undue reliance on forward-looking statements, and none of the parties
or any of their representatives assumes any obligation, or intends, to update or revise these forward-looking statements, whether as a
result of new information, future events, or otherwise. None of the parties or any of their representatives gives any assurance that SeeQC
or Allegro will achieve its expectations.
