EXPLANATORY NOTE

Entry into Definitive Agreement for Sale of Japanese Business

On September 30, 2026, TNL Mediagene, a Cayman Islands exempted company\n(the “Company”), entered into a Share Purchase Agreement (the “Share Purchase Agreement”) with MI Company Inc.,\na Japanese joint-stock company (the “Buyer”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell to the Buyer all of the issued\nand outstanding shares of TNL Mediagene Inc., a Japanese joint-stock company and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Japan\nHolding Company”). The Japan Holding Company owns, directly or indirectly, all of the issued and outstanding shares of Mediagene\nInc. and Infobahn Inc. The proposed sale of the Japan Holding Company and its subsidiaries to the Buyer is referred to herein as the “Transaction.”

Before receiving the proposal that resulted in the Transaction, the\nBoard established a special committee comprised solely of disinterested and independent directors (the “Special Committee”)\nto review, evaluate and negotiate potential strategic transaction proposals involving the Company and to make recommendations to the Board.\nThe Special Committee retained Greenberg Traurig, LLP as its independent legal advisor and Imperial Capital, LLC (“Imperial Capital”)\nas its independent financial advisor. As part of the Special Committee’s review of strategic alternatives, Imperial Capital contacted\n90 potential acquirers regarding the Company’s Japanese business.

The Buyer is a Japanese joint-stock company formed as the acquisition\nvehicle for an investor group led by Motoko Imada, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and a member of the Board. Following receipt\nof Ms. Imada’s proposal, and in light of her leadership of and ownership interest in the Buyer, the Special Committee reviewed,\nevaluated and negotiated the Transaction pursuant to its existing mandate. The resolutions establishing the Special Committee reserve\nto the Board the authority to approve any such transaction and require any director with a direct or indirect economic interest in the\ntransaction to be recused from the Board’s consideration and approval of any such transaction. The Board determined that it would\nnot approve the Transaction without the Special Committee’s prior favorable recommendation. Ms. Imada did not participate in the\nSpecial Committee’s deliberations or recommendation regarding the Transaction.

The aggregate consideration payable by the Buyer under the Share Purchase\nAgreement is $5.5 million, subject to an adjustment based on changes in net intercompany debt liabilities from a reference amount of $612,064\nas of July 31, 2026 through the closing date, and to set-off, in each case as provided in the Share Purchase Agreement, with the aggregate\namount of any such adjustment and set-off capped at $500,000. At or before closing, the Buyer is required to pay or satisfy at least $4.5\nmillion of the purchase price, consisting of at least $2.5 million in cash and, to the extent certain promissory notes of the Company\nremain outstanding, the assumption, discharge, cancellation or other extinguishment of indebtedness under those notes. The remaining unpaid\nportion of the purchase price will be evidenced by a secured promissory note issued by the Buyer to the Company, maturing on December\n31, 2026, and secured by a first-priority pledge of the shares of the Buyer held by Ms. Imada, representing not less than 55% of the Buyer’s\noutstanding shares and subject to customary covenants restricting sale, transfer or dilution of such shares.

On September 30, 2026, Imperial Capital delivered a written opinion\nthat, as of that date and subject to the assumptions, qualifications, procedures, limitations and other matters described in the opinion,\nthe consideration to be received by the Company in the Transaction was fair, from a financial point of view, to the Company. The opinion\nwas provided solely for the Special Committee’s use in evaluating the Transaction and addressed only the fairness to the Company,\nfrom a financial point of view, of the consideration to be received by the Company. It did not address the merits of the Company’s\ndecision to engage in the Transaction, the Transaction’s merits relative to any alternative that may be available to the Company,\nor any legal, tax, accounting or other terms or aspects of the Transaction, and it was not a recommendation to any shareholder of the\nCompany as to how a shareholder should act with respect to the Transaction.

After considering the Transaction, Imperial Capital’s financial\nanalysis and opinion, and other relevant factors, the Special Committee unanimously determined that the consideration to be received by\nthe Company in the Transaction is fair from a financial point of view to the Company and recommended that the Board approve the Transaction.\nActing on the Special Committee’s recommendation, the Board approved the Transaction.

The Transaction is expected to close on or before October 30, 2026,\nsubject to the satisfaction or waiver of customary closing conditions, including the accuracy of the parties’ representations and\nwarranties, material compliance with their respective covenants, the absence of legal restraints, receipt of required authorizations and\nthe absence of a material adverse effect with respect to the Japan Holding Company and its subsidiaries. The Share Purchase Agreement\nmay be terminated under specified circumstances, including by either party if the closing has not occurred by November 30, 2026, subject\nto customary limitations.

The Share Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties,\ncovenants, closing conditions, termination rights and indemnification provisions.

Following the closing of the Transaction, the Company will continue\nto own and operate its business in Taiwan. The Special Committee continues to evaluate strategic alternatives for the Company, including\npotential transactions involving the Company’s capital structure and ownership. There can be no assurance that any such alternative will\nbe pursued or completed, or as to the terms or timing of any such transaction.

The foregoing description of the Share Purchase Agreement and the Transaction\ndoes not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Share Purchase Agreement, a copy of which is furnished\nas Exhibit 10.1 to this Report on Form 6-K and incorporated herein by reference.

On October 2, 2026, the Company issued a press release announcing the\nTransaction. A copy of the press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Report on Form 6-K and incorporated herein by reference.

Forward-Looking Statements

This Report on Form 6-K contains forward-looking statements within\nthe meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act, and Section 21E of the Exchange Act, that are based on beliefs and assumptions and on\ninformation currently available to TNL Mediagene.

Any statements that refer to expectations, projections or other characterizations of future events or\ncircumstances, including strategies or plans, are also forward-looking statements. These statements involve risks, uncertainties and other\nfactors that may cause actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from those expressed\nor implied by these forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements in this communication speak only as of the date they are made.\nNew uncertainties and risks arise from time to time, and it is impossible for TNL Mediagene to predict these events or how they may affect\nTNL Mediagene.

Important factors include the possibility that the\nTransaction may not be completed on the anticipated terms, within the anticipated timeframe, or at all; the failure to satisfy or waive\nclosing conditions; the occurrence of events that could give rise to termination of the Share Purchase Agreement; the impact of the announcement\nor pendency of the Transaction on TNL Mediagene’s business, employees, customers, suppliers and other relationships; costs and expenses\nrelated to the Transaction; uncertainties relating to TNL Mediagene’s evaluation of strategic alternatives following completion\nof the Transaction; and other risks described in TNL Mediagene’s filings with the SEC. TNL Mediagene cannot assure you that the\nforward-looking statements in this communication will prove to be accurate. There may be additional risks that TNL Mediagene presently\ndoes not know or that TNL Mediagene currently does not believe are material that could also cause actual results to differ from those\ncontained in the forward-looking statements. In light of the significant uncertainties in these forward-looking statements, you should\nnot regard these statements as a representation or warranty by TNL Mediagene, its directors, officers or employees or any other person.\nExcept as required by applicable law, TNL Mediagene does not have any duty to, and does not intend to, update or revise the forward-looking\nstatements in this communication after the date of this communication. You should, therefore, not rely on these forward-looking statements\nas representing the views of TNL Mediagene as of any date subsequent to the date of this communication.
