The Company has incurred significant indebtedness

under a loan agreement with Galaxy Digital LLC, secured by the Company’s SOL holdings, to fund share repurchases and other corporate

This strategy exposes the Company to substantial risks related to margin calls, failure to make interest payments, loan defaults,

and forced liquidation of its collateral.

On February 27, 2026, the

Company entered into a Master Digital Currency Loan Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) with Galaxy Digital LLC (“Galaxy”),

under which Galaxy may extend loans of digital currency or U.S.

dollars (“Dollars”) to the Company in its sole discretion.

The Company has used Dollar loan proceeds to repurchase shares of its common stock and other corporate purposes.

These obligations are

secured exclusively by the Company’s SOL holdings, over which Galaxy holds a first priority security interest.

This strategy subjects

the Company to significant risks that could materially adversely affect its financial condition, results of operations, and stock price.

SOL’s market price

is highly volatile.

If the value of the Company’s SOL collateral falls below the margin call rate, Galaxy may require additional

collateral to restore the initial level within one business day.

If collateral value falls below an urgent margin call rate, the Company

may have as little as six hours to post additional collateral or repay outstanding principal.

There is no assurance the Company will have

sufficient SOL or other eligible assets to satisfy margin calls, acquire additional collateral, or pay down principal.

The Company may not generate

sufficient cash flow to service its debt.

Under the Loan Agreement, failure to repay borrowed amounts, make interest payments, pay fees,

or provide additional collateral constitutes an event of default.

Upon default, Galaxy may accelerate all amounts due, terminate the agreement,

and liquidate, convert, or otherwise realize upon the pledged SOL without notice.

Galaxy also has partial liquidation rights to restore

the loan-to-value ratio if the Company fails to meet margin calls.

Any liquidation could occur when SOL prices are depressed or markets

are illiquid, resulting in significant losses.

Galaxy may enter into hedging transactions, the costs and losses of which the Company would

Forced sales could also trigger adverse tax consequences.

The regulatory treatment

of digital assets remains uncertain.

If legal changes eliminate or materially impair a party’s ability to own or transfer digital

currency used as collateral, the Company may be required to settle in Dollars at prices determined under the Loan Agreement, and the agreement

would terminate.

Such changes could impair the collateral’s value or restrict the Company’s ability to hold or transact in

Because debt-funded share

repurchases do not generate revenue or cash flow to service indebtedness, leverage amplifies these risks.

The loan facility also contains

termination triggers unrelated to payment defaults—including equity declines exceeding specified thresholds or changes in key management—that

could allow acceleration of all outstanding obligations.

In an extreme scenario, declining SOL values combined with margin call failures

or a default could result in loss of all or substantially all SOL holdings, acceleration of indebtedness, and potential insolvency.

A default under the Company’s Loan Agreement

could render the Company ineligible to use Registration Statement on Form S-3 for securities offerings, which would materially impair

the Company’s ability to raise capital in the public markets.

The Company currently relies

on the availability of Form S-3 registration statements under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”), to conduct

primary and secondary offerings of its securities and to facilitate its share repurchase program.

Eligibility to use Form S-3 is conditioned

upon, among other things, the Company’s compliance with the timely filing requirements and other registrant eligibility conditions

set forth in General Instruction I.B of Form S-3, including that the Company has not failed to pay any dividend or sinking fund installment

on preferred stock, or defaulted on any installment on indebtedness for borrowed money, or on any material lease, since the end of the

last fiscal year.

If the Company were to default

on its obligations under the Loan Agreement -including any failure to make required interest or principal payments, satisfy margin calls,

or comply with other covenants - such default could cause the Company to fail to satisfy the registrant eligibility requirements of Form

In such event, the Company would be required to conduct any future public offerings of its securities on Form S-1, which is subject

to more extensive disclosure requirements, longer SEC review periods, and greater time and expense to prepare.

The loss of Form S-3 eligibility

would significantly impair the Company’s flexibility to access the capital markets on a timely and cost-effective basis, which could

adversely affect the Company’s ability to fund operations, pursue strategic opportunities, or respond to adverse business conditions.
