<P STYLE="font: italic 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0in">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">On September 8, 2025, in connection
with the Private Placement, we announced the launch of our digital asset treasury strategy, pursuant to which we plan to pursue a number
of strategic initiatives to acquire SOL and other digital assets. We entered into the Asset Management Agreement and Services Agreement
(each as defined below) to guide us through the implementation of our new digital assets treasury business. On September 15, 2025, we
announced our initial liquid SOL purchases of 6,822,000 at an average price of $232 per SOL, or $1.58 billion in the aggregate. As of
October 15, 2025, our SOL holdings totaled 6,871,599.06 SOL.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">Under our new treasury policy
and strategy (the &ldquo;Treasury Policy&rdquo;), the principal holding in our treasury reserve on the balance sheet will be allocated
to digital assets, primarily SOL by applying a public-market treasury model to an asset that&rsquo;s earlier in its lifecycle, structurally
reflexive and underexposed as compared to Bitcoin. Our approach involves acquiring SOL directly through market purchases and staking our
holdings via our own or third-party operated validators and generating incremental revenue through strategic partnerships and deployments
within the Solana ecosystem.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">In addition to operating our
hardware and software product design and engineering services business, our management will focus its resources on our Treasury Policy
and a significant portion of the balance sheet will initially be allocated to holding SOL in our digital asset treasury.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">Currently, our Treasury Policy
is primarily dedicated to SOL and other Solana ecosystem tokens. As a result, our assets are highly concentrated in a single digital asset.
Adverse developments specific to SOL, its protocol, or its ecosystem could have a disproportionate impact on our financial condition and
results of operations. We may utilize a range of capital markets and onchain strategies, including staking, lending and participation
in decentralized finance (&ldquo;<U>DeFi</U>&rdquo;) protocols, as well as pursuing accretive partnerships and acquisitions within the
Solana ecosystem.</P>

fastest and most used public blockchain in the world, processing more transactions and generating more on chain fee revenue than all other
blockchains combined. Solana has established itself as a high-performance blockchain and one of the most active onchain ecosystems, primarily
due to its differentiated approach to blockchain design, committed and growing developer community and strong social layer.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">To earn staking rewards, we
intend to delegate our SOL to our own validators, which are operated by third-party service providers through a white-label arrangement.
We may also delegate to other third-party SOL validators via Solana&rsquo;s in-protocol delegation system. We will continue to keep the
SOL held by third-party custodians. This means we deposit our SOL into a stake account, which is then delegated to a validator&rsquo;s
vote account. Both our validators and the third-party validators we select are integrated into our qualified custodians&rsquo; platforms,
allowing us to stake SOL to them directly from our custody accounts. We will work closely with our white-label service provider for our
validators to achieve a track record of high performance, high yield generation and attractive delegator economics. We will also delegate
to other third-party validators who, in our opinion, have demonstrated a similar track record. We use multiple validators, both our own
and third-party, to seek to maximize the return on our SOL treasury and to mitigate the risk of having only one or two validators for
our treasury staking. We may also negotiate bespoke arrangements with DeFi teams and validator operators to further enhance returns.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0in">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">We acknowledge that during
the deactivation period, staked SOL is not earning rewards and is not yet liquid. We factor this into our liquidity and risk management
framework.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">Our staking program involves
a temporary loss of transferability of staked SOL during the &ldquo;deactivation&rdquo; or cooldown period. Under normal conditions, we
expect to regain complete control over un-staked SOL within approximately 48 hours; however, network conditions could extend this period.
To mitigate liquidity risk, we intend to maintain a portion of our treasury in un-staked SOL and cash to meet short-term obligations.
We may also utilize capital markets instruments, such as structured products and non-dilutive debt, to enhance liquidity and expand our
SOL holdings. Our use of SOL options may involve margin requirements or collateral posting, which could reduce available liquidity. Option
premiums paid or received may also create volatility in our near-term cash flows.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">We also intend to participate
in liquid staking protocols by converting a portion of our SOL holdings into Liquid Staking Tokens (&ldquo;LSTs&rdquo;). This will allow
us to earn staking rewards while maintaining the liquidity of our underlying SOL and enabling us to use the LSTs in various DeFi applications.
We may manage a mix of traditionally staked SOL and LSTs to optimize liquidity.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">We solely utilize third-party
qualified custodians to hold our SOL, other than the portion of our SOL held through a single non-qualified custodian, as set forth below.
We do not self-custody our SOL. We use qualified custodians that utilize risk management and operational best practices related to hot
vs. cold storage, access controls, custody technology and insurance, among other practices. We are in the process of onboarding with other
qualified custodians to ensure that we mitigate our SOL treasury risk through the use of several qualified custodians.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">Our primary custodians generally
maintain the majority of their custodied SOL holdings in cold storage (&gt;95%), with hot wallets used only for limited operational purposes.
Custodians employ SOC 2-audited security controls, geographic redundancy, multi-person approval processes and conduct key-generation ceremonies
in offline, secure facilities. Private keys are never exposed to networked devices. Custodians maintain insurance coverage, which is in
addition to policies we maintain ourselves. Our custody agreements typically run for one to three years, may be terminated on 30 days&rsquo;
notice, and include fees for storage and transactions. Our qualified custodians do not rehypothecate or otherwise use our SOL.</P>

with DeFi protocols, either directly or indirectly through staking, validator operations, custody arrangements or liquidity management
activities. DeFi protocols generally rely on open-source smart contracts deployed on public blockchains, including SOL. While these smart
contracts are intended to operate automatically according to their code, they may contain coding errors, vulnerabilities or design flaws
that can be exploited. We actively evaluate DeFi opportunities within the Solana ecosystem to enhance treasury productivity, while maintaining
robust risk management practices.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0in">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">SOL is the native token of
the Solana blockchain. SOL was created with an initial supply of 500 million SOL, though much of the initial supply was locked or earmarked
for various use cases including the community, the foundation and investors. New SOL are brought into existence primarily through inflationary
rewards distributed to validators and delegators. The SOL staking yield is made up of three primary components: inflationary rewards,
transaction/priority fees and maximal extractable value. Inflationary rewards started out at 8.0%, and are currently 4.3%, and will fall
15% every epoch-year until they reach a long-term floor of 1.5%. Unlock schedules applicable to these allocations may periodically increase
circulating supply, creating potential selling pressure and adversely affecting the price of SOL. Historically, 50% of all transaction
fees were burned (with the other 50% going to the validator), but now all transaction fees go to the validator after the passage and adoption
of the Solana Improvement Document 96.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0in"><U>How SOL is Used</U></P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0in">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">SOL is used as part of Solana&rsquo;s
proof-of-stake consensus mechanism. In general, proof-of-stake blockchains have block producers called validators that run nodes, bond
or stake the protocol&rsquo;s native token, propose blocks when chosen to do so and validate/sign the transactions and blocks of others
when not. Validators are chosen to produce a block in proportion to their stake, which makes it extremely costly for bad actors to attempt
to control the network and add invalid transactions to the blockchain. Validators receive staking rewards for the work they perform, which
further incentivizes validators to behave properly, as they would otherwise miss out on such rewards. Other proof-of-stake networks often
&ldquo;slash&rdquo; some or all of a validator&rsquo;s stake if it intentionally or unintentionally performs its duties poorly, for example,
by double-signing a transaction, though Solana has not implemented slashing at this time. In addition to its use within consensus, SOL
is also a &ldquo;gas token,&rdquo; meaning that users of the Solana blockchain pay SOL to validators (and delegators) as compensation
for processing their transactions.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">We see three particularly
notable items giving Solana a technical advantage compared to many smart contract blockchain peers. Solana&rsquo;s proof-of-history gives
validators a notion of time and allows them to produce blocks without requiring the network to first agree upon the current block, resulting
in speed advantages. Further, unlike peer blockchains that often use single-threaded virtual machines, Solana enables parallel transaction
execution to increase throughput and take advantage of future hardware improvements resulting from increased CPU core counts. In addition,
Solana is optimized for speed and security, and is naturally growing into decentralization as hardware and bandwidth costs fall over time,
positioning it well along the Blockchain Trilemma.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">While Solana Labs and the
Solana Foundation have played important roles in the development of the Solana ecosystem, no single entity owns or controls the Solana
network. However, concentration of influence in these entities, particularly in early-stage protocol governance, presents risks that investors
should consider.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">Solana&rsquo;s performance
and technical capabilities enable many use cases from DeFi to decentralized physical infrastructure networks, AI agents, social media,
gaming, stablecoins, real-world assets, among others. We believe Solana is advantaged by best-in-class technology and strong network effects
that have attracted a large, growing and vibrant ecosystem of users, developers and decentralized applications.</P>

characterization of Solana, the markets for cryptocurrency in general, and our activities in particular, our business and our Solana acquisition
strategy may be subject to regulation by one or more regulators in the United States and globally. Ongoing and future regulatory actions
may alter, to a materially adverse extent, the nature of digital assets markets, the participation of industry participants, including
service providers and financial institutions in these markets, and our ability to pursue our SOL strategy. Additionally, U.S. state and
federal and foreign regulators and legislatures have taken action against industry participants, including digital assets businesses,
and enacted restrictive regimes in response to adverse publicity arising from hacks, consumer harm or criminal activity stemming from
digital assets activity. U.S. federal and state energy regulatory authorities are also monitoring the total electricity consumption of
cryptocurrency mining, and the potential impacts of cryptocurrency mining to the supply and dispatch functionality of the wholesale grid
and retail distribution systems. Many state legislative bodies have passed, or are actively considering, legislation to address the impact
of cryptocurrency mining in their respective states.</P>

Commission (the &ldquo;<U>CFTC</U>&rdquo;) takes the position that some digital assets fall within the definition of a &ldquo;commodity&rdquo;
under the Commodities Exchange Act of 1936, as amended (the &ldquo;<U>CEA</U>&rdquo;). Under the CEA, the CFTC has broad enforcement authority
to police market manipulation and fraud in spot digital assets markets in which we may transact. Beyond instances of fraud or manipulation,
the CFTC generally does not oversee cash or spot market exchanges or transactions involving digital asset commodities that do not utilize
margin, leverage or financing. In addition, CFTC regulations and CFTC oversight and enforcement authority apply with respect to futures,
swaps, other derivative products and certain retail leveraged commodity transactions involving digital asset commodities, including the
markets on which these products trade.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5in">In addition, because transactions
in SOL provide a degree of anonymity, they are susceptible to misuse for criminal activities, such as money laundering. This misuse, or
the perception of such misuse, could lead to greater regulatory oversight of SOL and SOL platforms, and there is the possibility that
law enforcement agencies could close SOL platforms or other SOL-related infrastructure with little or no notice and prevent users from
accessing or retrieving SOL held via such platforms or infrastructure.</P>

laundering of proceeds of illegal activities or the funding of criminal or terrorist enterprises, and the safety and soundness and consumer-protective
safeguards of exchanges or other service-providers that hold, transfer, trade or exchange digital assets for users. Many of these state

Pre-Funded Warrant Shares with $18.49999 of the exercise price per Pre-Funded Warrant that was pre-funded at closing (the &ldquo;Per Share

stock splits, stock combinations or similar events affecting our common stock. The Pre-Funded Warrants are exercisable in cash or by means
of a cashless exercise and will not expire until the date such Pre-Funded Warrants are fully exercised. The Pre-Funded Warrants may not
be exercised if the aggregate number of shares of common stock beneficially owned by the holder thereof (together with its affiliates)
immediately following such exercise would exceed a specified beneficial ownership limitation; provided, however, that a holder may increase
or decrease the beneficial ownership limitation by giving written notice to the Company (61 days&rsquo; advance written notice for increases),
but not to any percentage in excess of 9.99% of the then-outstanding shares of common stock.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">On September 8, 2025, in connection with the Private
Placement (as defined below), we announced the launch of our digital asset treasury strategy, pursuant to which we plan to pursue a number
of strategic initiatives to acquire SOL and other digital assets. We entered into the Asset Management Agreement and Services Agreement
(each as defined below) to guide us through the implementation of our new digital assets treasury business. On September 15, 2025, we
announced our initial liquid SOL purchases of 6,822,000 at an average price of $232 per SOL, or $1.58 billion in the aggregate.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">Under our new treasury policy and strategy (the
&#8220;<FONT STYLE="text-decoration: underline">Treasury Policy</FONT>&#8221;), the principal holding in our treasury reserve on the balance sheet will be allocated to digital
assets, primarily SOL by applying a public-market&#160;treasury model to an asset that&#8217;s earlier in its lifecycle, structurally
reflexive, and underexposed as compared to Bitcoin. Our approach involves acquiring SOL directly through market purchases and staking
our holdings via our own or third-party operated&#160;validators and generating incremental revenue through strategic partnerships and
deployments within the Solana ecosystem.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">In addition to operating our hardware and software
product design and engineering services business, our management will focus its resources on our Treasury Policy and a significant portion
of the balance sheet will initially be allocated to holding SOL in our digital asset treasury.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">Currently, our Treasury Policy is primarily dedicated
to SOL and other Solana ecosystem tokens. As a result, our assets are highly concentrated in a single digital asset. Adverse developments
specific to SOL, its protocol, or its ecosystem could have a disproportionate impact on our financial condition and results of operations.
We may utilize a range of capital markets and onchain strategies, including staking, lending, and participation in decentralized finance
(&#8220;<FONT STYLE="text-decoration: underline">DeFi</FONT>&#8221;) protocols, as well as pursuing accretive partnerships and acquisitions within the Solana ecosystem.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">To earn staking rewards, we intend to delegate
our SOL to our own validators, which are operated by third-party service providers through a white-label arrangement. We may also delegate
to other third-party SOL validators via Solana&#8217;s in-protocol delegation system. We will continue to keep the SOL held by third party
custodians. This means we deposit our SOL into a stake account, which is then delegated to a validator&#8217;s vote account. Both our
validators and the third-party validators we select are integrated into our qualified custodians&#8217; platforms, allowing us to stake
SOL to them directly from our custody accounts. We will work closely with our white-label service provider for our validators to achieve
a track record of high performance, high yield generation, and attractive delegator economics. We will also delegate to other third-party
validators who, in our opinion, have demonstrated a similar track record. We use multiple validators, both our own and third-party, to
seek to maximize the return on our SOL treasury and to mitigate the risk of having only one or two validators for our treasury staking.
We may also negotiate bespoke arrangements with DeFi teams and validator operators to further enhance returns.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">We acknowledge that during the deactivation period,
staked SOL is not earning rewards and is not yet liquid. We factor this into our liquidity and risk management framework.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">Our staking program involves a temporary loss
of transferability of staked SOL during the &#8220;deactivation&#8221; or cooldown period. Under normal conditions, we expect to regain
complete control over un-staked SOL within approximately 48 hours; however, network conditions could extend this period. To mitigate liquidity
risk, we intend to maintain a portion of our treasury in un-staked SOL and cash to meet short-term obligations. We may also utilize capital
markets instruments, such as structured products and non-dilutive debt, to enhance liquidity and expand our SOL holdings. Our use of SOL
options may involve margin requirements or collateral posting, which could reduce available liquidity. Option premiums paid or received
may also create volatility in our near-term cash flows.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&#160;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">We also intend to participate in liquid staking
protocols by converting a portion of our SOL holdings into Liquid Staking Tokens (&#8220;<FONT STYLE="text-decoration: underline">LSTs</FONT>&#8221;). This will allow us to earn
staking rewards while maintaining the liquidity of our underlying SOL and enabling us to use the LSTs in various DeFi applications. We
may manage a mix of traditionally staked SOL and LSTs to optimize liquidity.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">We solely utilize third-party qualified custodians
to hold our SOL, other than the portion of our SOL held through a single non-qualified custodian, as set forth below. We do not self-custody
our SOL. We use qualified custodians that utilize risk management and operational best practices related to hot vs. cold storage, access
controls, custody technology and insurance, among other practices. We are in the process of onboarding with other qualified custodians
to ensure that we mitigate our SOL treasury risk through the use of several qualified custodians.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&#160;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">Our primary custodians generally maintain the
majority of their custodied SOL holdings in cold storage (&gt;95%), with hot wallets used only for limited operational purposes. Custodians
employ SOC 2&#8211;audited security controls, geographic redundancy, multi-person approval processes, and conduct key-generation ceremonies
in offline, secure facilities. Private keys are never exposed to networked devices. Custodians maintain insurance coverage, which is in
addition to policies we maintain ourselves. Our custody agreements typically run for one to three years, may be terminated on 30 days&#8217;
notice, and include fees for storage and transactions. Our qualified custodians do not rehypothecate or otherwise use our SOL.</P>

generally rely on open-source smart contracts deployed on public blockchains, including SOL. While these smart contracts are intended
to operate automatically according to their code, they may contain coding errors, vulnerabilities, or design flaws that can be exploited.
We actively evaluate DeFi opportunities within the Solana ecosystem to enhance treasury productivity, while maintaining robust risk management
practices.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&#160;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">SOL is the native token of the Solana blockchain.
SOL was created with an initial supply of 500 million SOL, though much of the initial supply was locked or earmarked for various use cases
including the community, the foundation and investors. New SOL are brought into existence primarily through inflationary rewards distributed
to validators and delegators. The SOL staking yield is made up of three primary components: inflationary rewards, transaction/priority
fees, and maximal extractable value. Inflationary rewards started out at 8.0%, and are currently 4.3%, and will fall 15% every epoch-year
until they reach a long-term floor of 1.5%. Unlock schedules applicable to these allocations may periodically increase circulating supply,
creating potential selling pressure and adversely affecting the price of SOL. Historically, 50% of all transaction fees were burned (with
the other 50% going to the validator), but now all transaction fees go to the validator after the passage and adoption of the Solana Improvement
Document 96.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&#160;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify"><FONT STYLE="text-decoration: underline">How SOL is Used</FONT></P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&#160;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">SOL is used as part of Solana&#8217;s proof-of-stake
consensus mechanism. In general, proof-of-stake blockchains have block producers called validators that run nodes, bond or stake the protocol&#8217;s
native token, propose blocks when chosen to do so, and validate/sign the transactions and blocks of others when not. Validators are chosen
to produce a block in proportion to their stake, which makes it extremely costly for bad actors to attempt to control the network and
add invalid transactions to the blockchain. Validators receive staking rewards for the work they perform, which further incentivizes validators
to behave properly, as they would otherwise miss out on such rewards. Other proof-of-stake networks often &#8220;slash&#8221; some or
all of a validator&#8217;s stake if it intentionally or unintentionally performs its duties poorly, for example, by double-signing a transaction,
though Solana has not implemented slashing at this time. In addition to its use within consensus, SOL is also a &#8220;gas token&#8221;,
meaning that users of the Solana blockchain pay SOL to validators (and delegators) as compensation for processing their transactions.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&#160;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">We see three particularly notable items giving
Solana a technical advantage compared to many smart contract blockchain peers. Solana&#8217;s proof-of-history gives validators a notion
of time and allows them to produce blocks without requiring the network to first agree upon the current block, resulting in speed advantages.
Further, unlike peer blockchains that often use single-threaded virtual machines, Solana enables parallel transaction execution to increase
throughput and take advantage of future hardware improvements resulting from increased CPU core counts. In addition, Solana is optimized
for speed and security, and is naturally growing into decentralization as hardware and bandwidth costs fall over time, positioning it
well along the Blockchain Trilemma.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&#160;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">While Solana Labs and the Solana Foundation have
played important roles in the development of the Solana ecosystem, no single entity owns or controls the Solana network. However, concentration
of influence in these entities, particularly in early-stage protocol governance, presents risks that investors should consider.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&#160;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">Solana&#8217;s performance and technical capabilities
enable many use cases from DeFi to decentralized physical infrastructure networks, AI agents, social media, gaming, stablecoins, real-world
assets, among others. We believe Solana is advantaged by best-in-class technology and strong network effects that have attracted a large,
growing, and vibrant ecosystem of users, developers, and decentralized applications.</P>

Solana, the markets for cryptocurrency in general, and our activities in particular, our business and our Solana acquisition strategy

regulators and legislatures have taken action against industry participants, including digital assets businesses, and enacted restrictive
regimes in response to adverse publicity arising from hacks, consumer harm, or criminal activity stemming from digital assets activity.
U.S. federal and state energy regulatory authorities are also monitoring the total electricity consumption of cryptocurrency mining, and

Under the CEA, the CFTC has broad enforcement authority to police market manipulation and fraud in spot digital assets markets in which

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">In addition, because transactions in SOL provide
a degree of anonymity, they are susceptible to misuse for criminal activities, such as money laundering. This misuse, or the perception

agencies could close SOL platforms or other SOL-related infrastructure with little or no notice and prevent users from accessing or retrieving
SOL held via such platforms or infrastructure.</P>

in some jurisdictions, such as the U.S., digital assets are subject to overlapping, uncertain and evolving regulatory requirements.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">As digital assets have grown in both popularity
and market size, the U.S. Executive Branch, Congress and a number of U.S. federal and state agencies, including the Financial Crimes Enforcement
Network, the CFTC, the SEC, the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, the Department of Justice,
the Department of Homeland Security, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the Internal Revenue Service and state financial regulators,
have been examining the operations of digital asset networks, digital asset users and digital asset exchanges, with particular focus on
the extent to which digital assets can be used to violate state or federal laws, including to facilitate the laundering of proceeds of
illegal activities or the funding of criminal or terrorist enterprises, and the safety and soundness and consumer-protective safeguards
of exchanges or other service-providers that hold, transfer, trade or exchange digital assets for users. Many of these state and federal
agencies have issued consumer advisories regarding the risks posed by digital assets to investors. In addition, federal and state agencies,
and other countries have issued rules or guidance regarding the treatment of digital asset transactions and requirements for businesses
engaged in activities related to digital assets.</P>

Placement to purchase or otherwise acquire SOL and for the establishment of our digital asset treasury operations. Digital assets, such
as SOL, generally are highly volatile assets, including as a result of shifts in market sentiment, speculative trading, macroeconomic
trends, technology-related disruptions and regulatory announcements. In addition, digital assets do not pay interest or other returns,
unless utilized in staking or financial applications, and so the ability to generate a return on investment from the net proceeds of any
capital raisings will principally depend on whether there is appreciation in the value of digital assets following our purchases of digital
assets with the net proceeds from such capital raisings. Future fluctuations in digital asset trading prices may result in our converting

currently anticipated. Solana operates with a proof-of-stake combined with proof-of-history consensus mechanism, which differs significantly
from bitcoin&#8217;s proof-of-work mining mechanism. This strategic shift requires specialized employee skillsets and operational, technical
and compliance infrastructure to support SOL and related staking activities. This also requires that we implement different security protocols
and treasury management practices. Further, there is ongoing scrutiny and limited formal guidance from regulatory agencies, including
Nasdaq and the SEC, with respect to the treatment of public company cryptocurrency strategies. There is no assurance that we will be able
to execute this strategy by building out the needed infrastructure within the timeframe that we currently anticipate. Errors by key management
could result in significant loss of funds and reduced rewards. As a result, our shift towards SOL could have a material adverse effect
on our business and financial condition.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">Our shift towards a SOL treasury-focused strategy,
including staking, liquid staking, and other decentralized finance activities, exposes us to significant operational risks. To participate
in Solana&#8217;s Proof-of-Stake consensus mechanism, we must either operate or delegate to validator nodes, and such validator nodes
must keep software updated, maintain validator uptime and employ secure key management. In addition, the Solana ecosystem rapidly evolves,
with frequent upgrades and protocol changes that may require significant adjustments to our operational setup if we are operating a validator
node. The upgrades and protocol changes may require that we incur unanticipated costs and could cause temporary service disruptions to
the Solana network. We may also need to employ third-party service providers in our operations, which may introduce risks outside of our
control, including significant cybersecurity risks. Any of these operational risks could materially and adversely affect our ability to
execute our SOL treasury strategy and may prevent us from realizing positive returns and could severely hurt our financial condition.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">We have and intend to purchase SOL and increase our
overall holdings of SOL in the future. The intended concentration of our SOL holdings limits the risk mitigation that we could achieve
if we were to purchase a more diversified portfolio of treasury assets, and the absence of diversification enhances the risks inherent
in our Solana-focused strategy. The price of SOL experienced a significant decline in 2022, and any similar future significant declines
in the price of SOL could have a more pronounced impact on our financial condition than if we used our cash to purchase a more diverse
portfolio of assets.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">If the Solana network is disrupted or encounters
any unanticipated difficulties, then the processing of transactions on the Solana network may be disrupted, which in turn may prevent
us from depositing or withdrawing SOL from our accounts with our custodian or otherwise affecting SOL transactions. Such disruptions could
include, for example: the insolvency, business failure, interruption, default, failure to perform, security breach, or other problems
of participants, custodians, or others; the closing of SOL trading platforms due to fraud, failures, security breaches or otherwise; or
network outages or congestion, power outages, or other problems or disruptions affecting the Solana network. In 2021 and 2022, the Solana
network experienced performance degradation including liveness disruptions due to network congestion; although the Solana network has
been upgraded to address those congestion issues, there is no assurance that future issues may not arise. The implementation of material
network upgrades, such as the proposed Alpenglow consensus upgrade or the continued integration of the Firedancer validator client, could
result in future degradation of performance. Any disruption of the Solana network could materially impact the operation of decentralized
finance on the network, resulting in the inability of the Company to transfer or sell SOL, and the price of SOL.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">The U.S. federal government, states, regulatory agencies,
and foreign countries may also enact new laws and regulations, or pursue regulatory, legislative, enforcement or judicial actions, that
could materially impact the price of SOL or the ability of individuals or institutions such as us to own or transfer SOL and utilize blockchain-based
applications on networks such as Solana. For example, the U.S. executive branch, the SEC, the European Union&#8217;s Markets in Crypto
Assets Regulation, among others, have been active in recent years, and in the United Kingdom, the Financial Services and Markets Act 2023
became law. It is not possible to predict whether, or when, any of these developments will lead to Congress granting additional authorities
to the SEC, Commodity Futures Trading Commission (&#8220;<FONT STYLE="text-decoration: underline">CFTC</FONT>&#8221;), or other regulators, or whether, or when, any other federal,
state or foreign legislative bodies will take any similar actions. It is also not possible to predict the nature of any such additional
authorities, how additional legislation or regulatory oversight might impact the ability of digital asset markets to function or the willingness
of financial and other institutions to continue to provide services to the digital assets industry, nor how any new regulations or changes
to existing regulations might impact the value of digital assets generally and SOL specifically. The consequences of increased regulation
of digital assets and digital asset activities could adversely affect the market price of SOL and in turn adversely affect the market
price of our common stock.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">Moreover, the risks of engaging in a digital asset
treasury strategy are relatively novel and have created, and could continue to create complications due to the lack of experience that

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">The growth of the digital assets industry in general,
and the use and acceptance of SOL in particular, may also impact the price of SOL and is subject to a high degree of uncertainty. The
pace of worldwide growth in the adoption and use of the Solana network and SOL may depend, for instance, on public familiarity with digital
assets, ease of buying, accessing or gaining exposure to SOL, institutional demand for SOL as an investment asset, the participation of
traditional financial institutions in the digital assets industry, consumer demand for SOL as a means of payment, and the availability
and popularity of alternatives to SOL. Even if growth in SOL adoption occurs in the near or medium term, there is no assurance that SOL
and Solana network usage will continue to grow over the long term.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">Because SOL have no physical existence beyond the
record of transactions on the Solana blockchain, a variety of technical factors related to the Solana blockchain could also impact the
price of SOL. For example, malicious attacks by validators, inadequate validation and staking rewards to incentivize validating of Solana
transactions, hard &#8220;forks&#8221; of the Solana blockchain into multiple blockchains, difficulties with upgrades to the Solana network
(such as the proposed Alpenglow consensus upgrade or integration of the Firedancer validator client) and advances in digital computing,
algebraic geometry, and quantum computing could undercut the integrity of the Solana blockchain and negatively affect the price of SOL.
The liquidity of SOL may also be reduced and damage to the public perception of Solana may occur, if financial institutions were to deny
or limit banking services to businesses that hold SOL, provide Solana-related services or accept SOL as payment, which could also decrease
the price of SOL. Similarly, the open-source nature of the Solana blockchain means the contributors and developers of the Solana blockchain
are generally not directly compensated for their contributions in maintaining and developing the blockchain, and any failure to properly
monitor and upgrade the Solana blockchain could adversely affect the Solana blockchain and negatively affect the price of SOL.</P>

and decentralized finance applications, they are subject to many known risks such as technical vulnerabilities, coding errors, security
flaws, and exploits. Any vulnerability in a smart contract we interact with could result in the loss or theft of SOL or other digital
assets, which could have a materially adverse impact on our business. In addition, certain smart contracts are upgradable or subject to

been, and may continue to be, the subjects of legal and regulatory proceedings and investigations. For example, Galaxy Digital Inc. agreed
to pay $200 million as part of an agreement with the New York Attorney General to resolve civil claims related to certain investments,
trading, and public statements made in connection with the LUNA digital asset from late 2020 to 2022. Separately, Multicoin Capital Management,
LLC and its managing partner Kyle Samani have been named as co-defendants along with Solana Labs in a putative class-action litigation
related to the promotion and sale of SOL for which a motion to dismiss is pending. Certain of these matters have involved, among other
things, allegations of improper marketing practices and misrepresentations, as well as unregistered securities offerings with respect
to SOL and other digital assets. Any adverse outcome in these proceedings or other future litigation or regulatory inquiries could negatively
affect public perception of the Sponsors, the Company, and Solana itself, which could constrain trading activity and suppress the price
and liquidity of SOL. Any such development could materially and adversely affect the value of our digital asset treasury, the market price
of our stock and our ability to execute on our digital asset treasury strategy.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">The SEC has previously indicated that certain digital

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">If the SEC or other regulators determine that digital
assets that we may hold qualify as securities, we may be required to change our operations, wind down our operations, or register as an
investment company under the Investment Company Act. This classification would subject us to additional periodic reporting, disclosure
requirements, and regulatory compliance obligations, significantly increasing our operational costs. Compliance with the requirements
of the Investment Company Act applicable to registered investment companies may make it difficult for us to continue our current operations,
and this would materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, if SOL or another
digital asset we hold were determined to constitute a security for purposes of the federal securities laws, we would likely take steps
to reduce the percentage of SOL or such other digital assets that constitute investment assets under the Investment Company Act. These
steps may include, among others, selling SOL that we might otherwise hold for the long term and deploying our cash in non-investment assets,
and we may be forced to sell our SOL or other digital assets at unattractive prices, or cease our operations.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">Historically, the digital asset market has been
characterized by significant volatility in price, limited liquidity and trading volumes compared to sovereign currencies markets, concerns

compliance and internal control failures at exchanges, and various other risks inherent in its entirely electronic, virtual form and

As a result, digital asset holdings may not be able to serve as a source of liquidity for us to the same extent as cash and cash equivalents.
Further, digital assets we hold with our custodians and transact with our trade execution partners do not enjoy the same protections

experienced a surge of investor attention since bitcoin was developed in 2008, until recently investors in the United States had limited
means to gain direct exposure to SOL through traditional investment channels, and instead generally were only able to hold SOL through
&#8220;hosted&#8221; wallets provided by digital asset service providers or through &#8220;unhosted&#8221; wallets that expose the investor
to risks associated with loss or hacking of their private keys. Given the relative novelty of digital assets, general lack of familiarity
with the processes needed to hold SOL directly, as well as the potential reluctance of financial planners and advisers to recommend direct
SOL holdings to their retail customers because of the manner in which such holdings are custodied, some investors have sought exposure
to bitcoin, SOL and other digital assets through investment vehicles that hold bitcoin, SOL and other digital assets and issue shares
representing fractional undivided interests in their underlying digital asset holdings. These vehicles, which were previously offered
only to &#8220;accredited investors&#8221; on a private placement basis, have in the past traded at substantial premiums (and sometimes
discounts) to net asset value, possibly due to the relative scarcity of traditional investment vehicles providing investment exposure
to digital assets.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">On January 10, 2024, the SEC approved the listing

and are traded on U.S. national securities exchanges. The approved ETPs commenced trading directly to the public on January 11, 2024,
with a trading volume of $4.6 billion on the first trading day. The SEC has not yet approved the listing of spot SOL ETPs, but is expected
to consider such applications by October 2025. To the extent investors view our common stock as providing exposure to SOL, it is possible
that the value of our common stock may also include a premium over the value of our SOL due to the prior scarcity of traditional investment
vehicles providing investment exposure to SOL and other digital assets, and that the value of our common stock may decline due to investors
having a greater range of options to gain exposure to SOL if SOL ETPs are approved and investors choosing to gain such exposure through
ETPs rather than our common stock. The listing and trading of spot ETPs for SOL or other digital assets offers investors another alternative
to gain exposure to digital assets, which could result in a decline in the trading price of SOL as well as a decline in the value of our
common stock relative to the value of our SOL.</P>

we offer a different value proposition than a SOL investment vehicle such as a spot SOL ETP, investors may nevertheless view our common
stock as an alternative to an investment in an ETP and choose to purchase shares of a spot SOL ETP instead of our common stock. They may
do so for a variety of reasons, including if they believe that ETPs offer a &#8220;pure play&#8221; exposure to SOL that is generally
not subject to federal income tax at the entity level as we are, or the other risk factors applicable to an operating business, such as
ours. Additionally, unlike spot SOL ETPs, we (i) do not seek for our shares of common stock to track the value of the underlying SOL we
hold before payment of expenses and liabilities, (ii) do not benefit from various exemptions and relief under the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934, as amended, including Regulation M, and other securities laws, which enable ETPs to continuously align the value of their
shares to the price of the underlying assets they hold through share creation and redemption, (iii) are a Delaware corporation rather
than a statutory trust, and do not operate pursuant to a trust agreement that would require us to pursue one or more stated investment
objectives, and (iv) are not required to provide daily transparency as to our SOL holdings or our daily net asset value. Furthermore,
recommendations by broker-dealers to buy, hold, or sell complex products and non-traditional ETPs, or an investment strategy involving
such products, may be subject to additional or heightened scrutiny that would not be applicable to broker-dealers making recommendations
with respect to our common stock. Based on how we are viewed in the market relative to ETPs, and other vehicles which offer economic exposure
to SOL, such as SOL futures exchange-traded funds (&#8220;ETFs&#8221;), leveraged SOL futures ETFs, and similar vehicles offered on international
exchanges, any premium or discount in our common stock relative to the value of our SOL holdings may increase or decrease in different

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">Solana is a high-throughput Layer 1 blockchain with
architectural features that differ significantly from other blockchains, such as Ethereum. While these features allow for rapid processing
of transactions, they introduce risks that could adversely impact the value of SOL and the stability of the Solana network. Historically,
Solana has suffered network outages, slow operations and validator coordination failures. If such challenges were to persist, the confidence
of the Solana development community and its users will be adversely affected, which could cause a rapid decline in the value of SOL. In
addition, Solana&#8217;s consensus mechanism (Proof of History combined with Proof of Stake) is novel and relatively untested at a large
scale over time. Structural flaws could emerge that require a fork, which may have an adverse impact on the Solana network and our holdings.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">Solana has fewer validators than certain other blockchains
but has a high Nakamoto coefficient, which refers to the minimum number of validators or node operators that need to cooperate to take
over a blockchain network. In contrast, Ethereum has a higher number of validators. In theory, a malicious actor might more easily be
able to gain control of a network with fewer validators. Such control of the network could allow a malicious actor to censor transactions,
reverse transactions (double-spending), or manipulate block validations.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">The digital asset ecosystem is characterized by rapid
technological innovation, short development cycles, and intense competition among blockchains and related infrastructure providers. Solana
faces intense competition among existing protocols, such as Aptos, Hyperliquid, Sei and Sui, the Ethereum Layer 2 blockchains such as
Base, and new entrants that are currently being developed. Competitors may in the future offer superior scalability, security, interoperability,
decentralization, programmability and adoption, and may attract developers away from the Solana ecosystem. Advancements in AI and blockchain
technology are likely to accelerate the development of such protocols, including the development of additional networks that natively
integrate AI into consensus mechanisms and other core features. If Solana is unable to evolve to address such increased competition or
if market participants believe that Solana&#8217;s core technology stack is outdated or less attractive compared with other blockchain
networks, Solana may be considered technologically obsolete by the next generation of protocols. The decline in the Solana network would
materially impact the market value of SOL and adversely affect the value of our SOL treasury holdings and our stock price.</P>

preventative measures. Further, there has been an increase in such activities due to the increase in work arrangements. The risk of cyberattacks
could also be increased by cyberwarfare in connection with the ongoing Russia and Israel conflicts, or other future conflicts, including
potential proliferation of malware into systems unrelated to such conflicts. Any future breach of our operations or those of others in
the Solana industry, including third-party services on which we rely, could materially and adversely affect our financial condition and
results of operations.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">Following the launch of the Company&#8217;s proposed
digital asset treasury strategy, as a result of our Solana strategy, we expect our assets to be concentrated in SOL holdings. Accordingly,
the emergence or growth of digital assets other than SOL, including those with significant private or public sector backing, including
by governments, consortiums or financial institutions, may have a material adverse effect on our financial condition. As of June 30, 2025,
Solana was the fifth largest digital asset by market capitalization, excluding stablecoins. However, there are numerous alternative digital
assets and many entities, including consortiums and financial institutions, are researching and investing resources into private or permissioned
blockchain platforms. If the mechanisms or network effects on alternative blockchain platforms are perceived as superior to the Solana
network, those digital assets could gain market share relative to Solana.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">Many of the blockchain applications on large blockchain
networks involve the use of &#8220;stablecoins,&#8221; which are designed to maintain a constant price related to or based on some other
asset or traditional currency because of, for instance, their issuers&#8217; promise to hold high-quality liquid assets (such as U.S.
dollar deposits and short-term U.S. treasury securities) equal to the total value of stablecoins in circulation. In July 2025, the U.S.
President signed into law the &#8220;GENIUS Act,&#8221; which establishes a federal framework for &#8220;payment stablecoins,&#8221; treating
them as payment systems, not securities, and mandating fiat-backed reserves, monthly disclosures, anti-money laundering safeguards, and
similar measures. Stablecoins have grown rapidly as a medium of exchange and store of value, particularly on digital asset trading platforms,
and their use as an alternative to digital assets such as bitcoin and SOL could expand further as rules are promulgated under the GENIUS
Act. As of June 30, 2025, two of the seven largest digital assets by market capitalization were U.S. dollar-pegged stablecoins. Stablecoins
are an important aspect of blockchain networks such as Solana and if other blockchains are deemed more attractive than Solana for the
use of stablecoins, that may impact the usefulness of the Solana network and Solana-based blockchain applications, and therefore the value
of SOL.</P>

practicable, to vote the amount of the preferred stock represented by such depositary shares in accordance with such instructions, and
