of shares held in &ldquo;street name&rdquo; does not give instructions to the broker or nominee holding the shares as to how to vote on
matters deemed &ldquo;non-routine.&rdquo; Generally, if shares are held in street name, the beneficial owner of the shares is entitled
to give voting instructions to the broker or nominee holding the shares. If the beneficial owner does not provide voting instructions,
the broker or nominee can still vote the shares with respect to matters that are considered to be &ldquo;routine,&rdquo; but not with
respect to &ldquo;non-routine&rdquo; matters. Under the rules and interpretations of the New York Stock Exchange, &ldquo;non-routine&rdquo;
matters include director elections (whether contested or uncontested) and matters involving a contest or a matter that may substantially
affect the rights or privileges of stockholders.</P>

of shares in excess of 19.99% of the total number of shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding as of the date of the SPA. If this Proposal
No. 1 is not approved by our stockholders, the Company will need to raise cash financing from a different source, which would prevent
or curtail the Company&rsquo;s ability to improve its balance sheet. In the event that the Company (i) is unable to obtain funding from
SJC through its acquisition of the Series B Preferred Stock for cash through the consummation of the SPA, or (ii) is unable to reduce
its aggregate debt on its books, the Company anticipates it would need to seek alternative methods of raising cash for future expansion
of its business, likely under far less favorable terms than those offered by SJC.</P>

$2.2 million, it no longer met the requirement that it must have no less than $6 million or more in stockholders&rsquo; equity pursuant

American on January 17, 2025. The Company has, at the request of the NYSE American, provided supplements to the original compliance plan.
On March 4, 2025, the NYSE American notified the Company that it has been granted a listing extension until June 18, 2026 on the basis
of the compliance plan recently submitted by the Company to regain compliance with the Listing Standards. If the Company does not make
progress consistent with the plan during the plan period, the NYSE American will initiate delisting procedures. The Company will be subject
to periodic reviews including quarterly monitoring for compliance with the plan. During this period, the Company's Class A Common Stock
will continue to be listed on the NYSE American and trade as usual subject to compliance with other NYSE American listing requirements.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">Rule 713(a) of the NYSE American requires stockholder
approval of a transaction, other than a public offering, involving the sale, issuance or potential issuance by an issuer of Class A Common
Stock (or securities convertible into or exercisable for Class A Common Stock) at a price less than the greater of book or market value
which together with sales by officers, directors or principal stockholders of the issuer equals 20% or more of presently outstanding Class
A Common Stock, or equal to 20% or more of presently outstanding stock for less than the greater of book or market value of the stock,
or when the issuance or potential issuance of additional shares will result in a change of control of the issuer.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">Stockholder approval of this Proposal No. 7 will
constitute stockholder approval for purposes of Rule 713(a) of the NYSE American.</P>

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

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">We are seeking stockholder approval for the issuance
of approximately 3,125,000 shares of Class A Common Stock (assuming the <FONT STYLE="background-color: white">Secure Net Capital Convertible
Note</FONT> is converted at the Floor Price), plus such number of shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon conversion of accrued but
unpaid interest, to Secure Net Capital in connection with the conversion of the <FONT STYLE="background-color: white">Secure Net Capital
Convertible Note</FONT>.</P>

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

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">Our stockholders are not entitled to dissenters&rsquo;

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">The Company expects that it will need to raise
significant cash financing to operate and expand its operations in the foreseeable future. If this Proposal No. 7 is not approved by our
stockholders, the Company will not be able to extinguish its debt to Secure Net Capital through permitting Secure Net Capital to fully
convert its <FONT STYLE="background-color: white">Secure Net Capital Convertible Note</FONT>. In that event, the Company anticipates it
would need to seek alternative methods of repaying the debt owed to Secure Net Capital, likely under less favorable terms than those offered
by Secure Net Capital.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">The <FONT STYLE="background-color: white">Secure
Net Capital Convertible Note</FONT> does not affect the rights of the holders of outstanding Class A Common Stock, but the issuance of
the Conversion Shares to Secure Net Capital pursuant to the terms of the <FONT STYLE="background-color: white">Secure Net Capital Convertible
Note</FONT> will have a dilutive effect on our existing stockholders, including the voting power and the economic rights of the existing
stockholders. If we were to have issued Secure Net Capital all 3,125,000 Conversion Shares (not including such number of shares of Class
A Common Stock issuable upon conversion of accrued but unpaid interest) which it may acquire absent stockholder approval upon conversion
of the <FONT STYLE="background-color: white">Secure Net Capital Convertible Note</FONT>, assuming the entirety of the <FONT STYLE="background-color: white">Secure
Net Capital Convertible Note</FONT> had been converted on the Record Date, Secure Net Capital would have acquired approximately _____%
of the ____________ shares that would then have been outstanding as of the Record Date.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">The availability for sale of a large number of
shares by Secure Net Capital may depress the market price of our Class A Common Stock and, going forward, may impair our ability to raise
additional capital through the public sale of our Class A Common Stock. We do not have any arrangement with Secure Net Capital to address
the possible effect on the price of our Class A Common Stock of the sale by Secure Net Capital of its shares.</P>

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

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">Pursuant to the <FONT STYLE="background-color: white">Secure
Net Capital Convertible Note</FONT>, the Company shall not issue, and Secure Net Capital shall not acquire, any shares of our Class A
Common Stock under the <FONT STYLE="background-color: white">Secure Net Capital Convertible Note</FONT> if such shares proposed to be
issued and sold, when aggregated with all other shares of our Class A Common Stock then beneficially owned (as calculated pursuant to
Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) by Secure Net Capital and its affiliates, would result in the beneficial
ownership by Secure Net Capital and its affiliates in excess of the Maximum Percentage outstanding immediately after giving effect to
such conversion. This beneficial ownership limitation limits the number of shares Secure Net Capital may beneficially own at any one time
to the Maximum Percentage. Consequently, the number of shares Secure Net Capital may beneficially own in compliance with the beneficial
ownership limitation may increase over time as the number of outstanding shares of our Class A Common Stock increases over time. Secure
Net Capital may sell some or all of the shares it acquires under the <FONT STYLE="background-color: white">Secure Net Capital Convertible
Note</FONT>, subject to Secure Net Capital&rsquo;s compliance with the Securities Act and applicable state law. Even though Secure Net
Capital&rsquo;s beneficial ownership of our Class A Common Stock is subject to the Maximum Percentage, Secure Net Capital may be in a
position to exert influence over the Company and there is no guarantee that the interests of Secure Net Capital will align with the interests
of other stockholders.</P>
