Forward-looking statements include all statements that are\nnot historical facts, including statements regarding the expected effects of the Transaction; the Company’s rights with respect\nto, and its plans for, its oxy-combustion technology and the La Porte facility; the potential for royalties under the License Amendment;\nthe deployment of industrial plants by NP, its affiliates or their customers; the settlement of accrued amounts, including the amount,\ntiming and form of payments and equity issuances required to settle the Excluded Matters; the accounting for the Transaction; and any\nreinstatement of the A&R JDA or the Commercial Agreement. Words such as anticipates, believes, expects, intends, plans, seeks, estimates,\ntargets, projects and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain those\nwords.\n\n \n\nForward-looking statements are based on management’s\ncurrent expectations and assumptions and are subject to risks, uncertainties and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict\nand many of which are outside the Company’s control. Actual results may differ materially. These risks include that NP, its affiliates\nor their customers do not deploy industrial plants using the Company’s technology, or deploy fewer plants or later than expected;\nthat the royalty amount and commercial model for any plant are not agreed, are determined at a level below the Company’s expectations\nor are the subject of dispute, including in any expert determination; that a third-party operator fails to pay a royalty and the Company’s\nrecourse is limited to that operator; that the Company does not receive any royalties or otherwise realize value from its retained oxy-combustion\nintellectual property; that NP’s continuing exclusive utility-scale license, the exclusive industrial-product rights granted to\nNP and its affiliates, and their other rights under the License Agreement limit the Company’s ability to develop, commercialize\nor transfer its technology or to engage alternative equipment suppliers; that the Company is unable to use, sell or decommission the La\nPorte facility on acceptable terms or incurs decommissioning, restoration or preservation costs exceeding current estimates; that the\namount, timing or form of settlement of the Excluded Matters differs from the Company’s expectations, requires greater cash payments\nor a greater issuance of paired shares of Class B common stock and OpCo units than anticipated, or results in dilution to holders of the\nCompany’s Class A common stock; that the parties do not agree to reinstate the A&R JDA or the Commercial Agreement and the Company\nis unable to establish another commercially viable development or commercialization pathway for its oxy-combustion technology that is\nconsistent with NP’s continuing license and exclusivity rights, on acceptable terms or at all; that the accounting for the Transaction\ndiffers from the Company’s current expectations; that the mutual releases prevent the Company from pursuing claims not currently\nknown or give rise to disputes regarding their scope; that disputes arise regarding the ownership or use of intellectual property, exclusivity,\nroyalties or technical-support obligations; the outcome of pending litigation; the capital-intensive nature of the Company’s business\nmodel, which will likely require it to raise additional capital; and the risks described under Item 1A, Risk Factors, in the Company’s\nAnnual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 and in its subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, each as filed with\nthe Securities and Exchange Commission.\n\n \n\nForward-looking statements speak only as of the\ndate of this report. The Company undertakes no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new\ninformation, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.\n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n**SIGNATURE**\n\n \n\nPursuant to the requirements of the Securities\nExchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.\n\n \n\nDated: September 11, 2026\n \n**NET POWER INC.**\n\n \n \n \n\n \nBy:\n/s/ Daniel J.
