Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On August 19, 2026, Rank One Computing Corporation, a Colorado corporation (the “Company”), entered into lock-up agreements
(each, a “Lock-Up Agreement”) with certain members of its executive management team (collectively, the “Lock-Up Holders”)
pursuant to which each Lock-Up Holder has voluntarily agreed, among other things, not to directly or indirectly offer, sell, transfer
or otherwise dispose of any shares of or securities convertible into, or exercisable or exchangeable for, the Company’s common stock,
par value $0.01 per share (“Common Stock”), held by them, for a period commencing on the date of the Lock-Up Agreements and
continuing until February 23, 2027, subject to certain exceptions. The shares of Common Stock held by the Lock-Up Holders represent beneficial
ownership of approximately 54% of the total outstanding shares of Common Stock and 66% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock that
are not publicly traded, in each case, as of August 18, 2026. The Lock-Up Holders’ voluntary entry into the Lock-Up Agreements extends
for an additional six months the original six-month lock-up period applicable to the Lock-Up Holders as established in connection with
the Company’s initial public offering, the final prospectus of which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February
19, 2027.
A copy of the form of Lock-Up Agreement is filed
as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference. The foregoing description of the Lock-Up Agreements
does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of each Lock-Up Agreement.

Exhibit 10.1
Lock-Up Agreement
August 19, 2026
Rank One Computing Corporation
1290 Broadway, Suite 1200
Denver, Colorado 80203
Ladies and Gentlemen:
Whereas the undersigned previously
entered a lock-up agreement with The Benchmark Company, LLC in connection with the initial public offering of common stock, par value
$0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), of Rank One Computing Corporation, a corporation formed under the laws of the
State of Colorado (collectively with its subsidiaries and affiliates the “Company”).
To induce the Company and
each of its officers and directors to enter agreements substantially in the form of this lock-up agreement, the undersigned hereby agrees
that, without the prior written consent of the Company, the undersigned will not, during the period commencing on the date hereof and
ending on February 23, 2027 (the “Lock-Up Period”), (1) offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, grant, lend, or otherwise
transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any Common Stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for
Common Stock, whether now owned or hereafter acquired by the undersigned or with respect to which the undersigned has or hereafter acquires
the power of disposition (collectively, the “Lock-Up Securities”); (2) enter into any swap or other arrangement that
transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the Lock-Up Securities, whether any such transaction
described in clause (1) or (2) above is to be settled by delivery of Lock-Up Securities, in cash or otherwise; (3) make any demand for
or exercise any right with respect to the registration of any Lock-Up Securities; or (4) publicly disclose the intention to make any offer,
sale, pledge or disposition, or to enter into any transaction, swap, hedge or other arrangement relating to any Lock-Up Securities. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, and subject to the conditions below, the undersigned may transfer Lock-Up Securities without the prior written consent
of the Company in connection with (a) transactions relating to Lock-Up Securities acquired in open market transactions; provided that
no filing under Section 13 or Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”),
or other public announcement shall be required or shall be voluntarily made in connection with subsequent sales of Lock-Up Securities
acquired in such open market transactions; (b) transfers of Lock-Up Securities as a bona fide gift, by will or intestacy or to
a family member or trust for the benefit of the undersigned or a family member (for purposes of this lock-up agreement, “family
member” means any relationship by blood, marriage or adoption, not more remote than first cousin); (c) transfers of Lock-Up Securities
to a charity or educational institution; (d) if the undersigned is a corporation, partnership, limited liability company or other business
entity, (i) any transfers of Lock-Up Securities to another corporation, partnership or other business entity that controls, is controlled
by or is under common control with the undersigned or (ii) distributions of Lock-Up Securities to members, partners, stockholders, subsidiaries
or affiliates (as defined in Rule 405 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended) of the undersigned; (e) if the undersigned
is a trust, to a trustee or beneficiary of the trust; provided that in the case of any transfer pursuant to the foregoing clauses
(b), (c) (d) or (e), (i) any such transfer shall not involve a disposition for value, (ii) each transferee shall sign and deliver to the
Company a lock-up agreement substantially in the form of this lock-up agreement and (iii) no filing under Section 13 or Section 16(a)
of the Exchange Act or other public announcement shall be required or shall be voluntarily made; (f) the receipt by the undersigned from
the Company of Common Stock upon the vesting of restricted stock awards or stock units or upon the exercise of options to purchase the
Company’s Common Stock issued under an equity incentive plan of the Company or an employment or consulting arrangement (the “Plan
Shares”) or the transfer of Common Stock or any securities convertible into Common Stock to the Company upon a vesting event
of the Company’s securities or upon the exercise of options to purchase the Company’s securities, in each case on a “cashless”
or “net exercise” basis or to cover tax obligations of the undersigned in connection with such vesting or exercise, but only
to the extent such right expires during the Lock-up Period, provided that no filing under Section 13 or Section 16(a) of the Exchange
Act or other public announcement shall be required or shall be voluntarily made within ninety (90) days after the date of the Underwriting
Agreement, and after such ninety (90) days, if the undersigned is required to file a report under Section 13 or Section 16(a) of the Exchange
Act reporting a reduction in beneficial ownership of Common Stock during the Lock-Up Period, the undersigned shall include a statement
in such schedule or report to the effect that the purpose of such transfer was in connection with a “cashless” or “net
exercise” of the security or to cover tax withholding obligations of the undersigned in connection with such vesting or exercise
and, provided further, that the Plan Shares shall be subject to the terms of this lock-up agreement; (g) the transfer of Lock-Up
Securities pursuant to agreements described in the Pricing Prospectus under which the Company has the option to repurchase such securities
or a right of first refusal with respect to the transfer of such securities, provided that if the undersigned is required to file
a report under Section 13 or Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act reporting a reduction in beneficial ownership of Common Stock during the
Lock-Up Period, the undersigned shall include a statement in such schedule or report describing the purpose of the transaction; (h) the
establishment of a trading plan pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act for the transfer of Lock-Up Securities, provided
that (1) such plan does not provide for the transfer of Lock-Up Securities during the Lock-Up Period and (2) to the extent a public announcement
or filing under the Exchange Act, if any, is required of or voluntarily made by or on behalf of the undersigned or the Company regarding
the establishment of such plan, such public announcement or filing shall include a statement to the effect that no transfer of Lock-Up
Securities may be made under such plan during the Lock-Up Period; (i) the conversion of the outstanding preferred stock of the Company
into Common Stock, provided that such Common Stock remain subject to the terms of this agreement; (j) the transfer of Lock-Up Securities
that occurs by operation of law, such as pursuant to a qualified domestic order or in connection with a divorce settlement, provided
that the transferee agrees to sign and deliver a lock-up agreement substantially in the form of this lock-up agreement for the balance
of the Lock-Up Period, and provided further, that any filing under Section 13 or Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act that is required
to be made during the Lock-Up Period as a result of such transfer shall include a statement that such transfer has occurred by operation
of law; and (k) the transfer of Lock-Up Securities pursuant to a bona fide third party tender offer, merger, consolidation or other similar
transaction made to all holders of the Common Stock involving a change of control (as defined below) of the Company approved by the Company’s
board of directors; provided that in the event that the tender offer, merger, consolidation or other such transaction is not completed,
the Lock-Up Securities owned by the undersigned shall remain subject to the restrictions contained in this lock-up agreement. For purposes
of clause (k) above, “change of control” shall mean the consummation of any bona fide third party tender offer, merger, amalgamation,
consolidation or other similar transaction the result of which is that any “person” (as defined in Section 13(d)(3) of the
Exchange Act), or group of persons, becomes the beneficial owner (as defined in Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 of the Exchange Act) of a majority
of total voting power of the voting stock of the Company. The undersigned also agrees and consents to the entry of stop transfer instructions
with the Company’s transfer agent and registrar against the transfer of the undersigned’s Lock-Up Securities except in compliance
with this lock-up agreement.
The undersigned agrees that,
prior to engaging in any transaction or taking any other action that is subject to the terms of this lock-up agreement during the period
from the date hereof to and including the expiration of the Lock-Up Period, the undersigned will give notice thereof to the Company and
will not consummate any such transaction or take any such action unless it has received written confirmation from the Company that the
Lock-Up Period has expired.
If the Company wishes to grant any release or
waiver with respect to this lock-up agreement or any similar lock-up agreement with an officer, director or other shareholder of the Company,
other than for transactions permitted under the second sentence of the second paragraph above, the Company must grant all such releases
or waivers simultaneously and on the same terms. The provisions of this paragraph will not apply if (a) the release or waiver is effected
solely to permit a transfer of Lock-Up Securities not for consideration and (b) the transferee has agreed in writing to be bound by the
same terms described in this lock-up agreement to the extent and for the duration that such terms remain in effect at the time of such
transfer.
The undersigned understands
that this lock-up agreement is irrevocable and shall be binding upon the undersigned’s heirs, legal representatives, successors
and assigns.
