Following the initial evaluation\nperiod, the parties will assess the potential expansion of ARIA across\nGreer’s remaining locations, with the broader network currently anticipated\nto include up to 29 stores.\n\nFacilitated through Alpha Modus’ relationship with Circle the Wagons (CTW),\nthe agreement represents an important advancement in the Company's strategy to\ncommercialize ARIA within physical retail, providing an opportunity to\nvalidate the platform against real-world operating conditions, develop\ngrocery-specific artificial intelligence capabilities, and establish a\nrepeatable deployment model for future retail customers.\n\nTransforming Existing Retail Infrastructure into Actionable Intelligence\n\nARIA is designed to transform the substantial volumes of information already\ngenerated within physical retail environments into actionable operational\nintelligence.\n\nThrough the Greer’s deployment, ARIA is expected to be configured to ingest\nand analyze available historical and live operational information, including\nbut not limited to: camera data, point-of-sale transactions, inventory and\nordering records, pricing and promotions, product information, store layouts,\nshrink and waste data, and other operational inputs.\n\nBy integrating information traditionally distributed across disconnected\nretail systems, ARIA is designed to identify patterns, uncover operational\ninefficiencies, generate recommendations, and provide retailers with a more\ncomprehensive understanding of their businesses.\n\nImportantly, ARIA is designed to work, as much as possible, with existing\nretail technology infrastructure, reducing the need for retailers to replace\nestablished systems to benefit from advanced artificial intelligence\ncapabilities.\n\n\"This agreement represents a meaningful milestone in the evolution of ARIA\nfrom technology development toward real-world commercial application,\" said\nSasha Asgary, Chief Strategy Officer of Alpha Modus Holdings, Inc. \"The\ngrocery industry operates on extraordinarily complex relationships among\ninventory, pricing, consumer behavior, labor, and merchandising. Much of the\nintelligence necessary to optimize those relationships already exists within\nretailers' own systems. ARIA is designed to connect that information,\nunderstand it, and transform it into intelligence that can drive better\nbusiness decisions.\"\n\nBuilding a Scalable Commercial Platform\n\nThe Greer’s program is structured to accomplish several strategic objectives\nbeyond the initial store deployments.\n\nAlpha Modus plans to use the evaluation period to develop standardized\noperating and onboarding procedures, establish and refine grocery-specific AI\nmodels, expand ARIA’s proprietary knowledge base, and develop commercial\npricing and deployment frameworks for the grocery retail industry.\n\nThe agreement provides that Alpha Modus will retain ownership of ARIA, its\nunderlying technology, models, knowledge base, deployment methodologies, and\nimprovements developed during the program, while Greer’s retains ownership\nof its proprietary operational data.\n\n\"We believe the real opportunity extends well beyond any individual store or\nretail chain,\" Asgary continued. \"Our objective is to establish an AI\narchitecture that can be deployed repeatedly across physical retail\nenvironments, allowing retailers to unlock the intelligence embedded within\ninfrastructure and data they already own. The work we are undertaking with\nGreer’s is intended to help establish that foundation for the grocery\nindustry and accelerate our path toward broader commercial adoption.\"\n\nStrategic Industry Relationships Accelerating ARIA Adoption\n\nThe Greer’s engagement originated through Alpha Modus’ strategic\nrelationship with Circle the Wagons, whose established retail industry\nrelationships and operational expertise were instrumental in bringing the\ncompanies together.\n\n\"Having spent years working closely with independent grocery retailers and\nunderstanding the operational challenges they face, we believe ARIA represents\na compelling opportunity to fundamentally change how retailers leverage their\nexisting data and infrastructure,\" said Barton Howard, Chief Executive Officer\nof Circle the Wagons. \"What makes this particularly exciting is that we are\nmoving beyond theoretical applications of artificial intelligence and into\nreal operating environments where its capabilities can be evaluated and\nrefined.
