Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

("Cuentas") signed a Binding Letter of Intent with Core Development Holdings Corporation ("Core"), a Florida corporation that holds approximately 29.3% of 4280 Lakewood Road Manager, LLC ("Lakewood Manager"), which in turn owns 86.45% of the membership interests in 4280 Lakewood Road, LLC ("4280 Project"), an affordable multi-family real estate project located in Lake Worth, Florida.

Core has agreed to sell a portion of its interest in the Lakewood Manager to Cuentas. and Cuentas has agreed to issue to Core a number of Cuentas common shares to acquire $2 million of equity in the Lakewood Manager . Cuentas has agreed to issue to Core a number of Cuentas common shares (the "Number of Cuentas Shares") equal to 33.3% of the total number of post- issuance, authorized, issued and outstanding shares on a fully diluted basis measured on a going forward basis to account for the exercise in the future of any currently issued and outstanding warrants and options as of the date of this Agreement, of Cuentas (CUEN) common stock free and clear of any liens, claims or encumbrances anticipated to equal 10 million of a total of 30 million shares of Cuentas common stock then outstanding ("33.3% Ownership Percentage"") which the parties stipulate has a value equal to TWO MILLION DOLLARS ($2,000,000) (the "Purchase Price"). If for any reason, Cuentas is unable to issue sufficient shares to satisfy the 33.3% Ownership Percentage or as a result of the exercise and issue of any stock warrants or options outstanding as of the date of the Agreement, the Percentage Membership Interest to be issued by Core to Cuentas pursuant to the Letter of Intentshall be reduced by the same percentage that the actual post-issuance ownership percentage falls below the 33.3% Ownership Ratio. By way of example only, if post-issuance, Core owns only 30.0% of the total issued and outstanding shares of Cuentas common stock, the Percentage Membership Interest sold to Cuentas shall be reduced by 3.3%.

a. The Percentage of Membership Interest Acquired will be determined by selection of two competent valuation professionals, one by each Party, to prepare a written opinion of the fair market value of Core's Interest in Lakewood Managers as of the Closing Date provided that, the difference between two appraisals does not exceed 15%, then the average of the fair market value of the two appraisals shall represent the "Appraised Value Denominator" for purposes of determining the Percentage Membership Interest to be transferred by Core to Cuentas. If the difference between two appraisals is more than 15%, then the Parties shall mutually select a third competent valuation expert who shall prepare a third opinion of the fair market value of Core's Interest in Lakewood Manager, and the average of the three opinions of the fair market value of Core's Interest in Lakewood Manager shall be the Appraised Value Denominator. The Percentage Membership Interest to be assigned and transferred shall equal the Purchase Price divided by the Appraised Value Denominator. Core's transfer of the Percentage Membership Interest is subject to approval by Lakewood Manager. Cuentas agrees to be bound by the rights and obligations of the current Operating Agreement and other agreements of Lakewood Manager and Core shall have the right continue to exercise its management and other decision making rights at Lakewood Manager and will provide customary rights afforded minority interest holders in limited liability companies provided under Florida law. Cuentas' obligation to consummate and enter into a definitive purchase and sale agreement is contingent on board of director and shareholder approval.
