PROXY STATEMENT

FOR THE ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS

TO BE HELD ON *, 2025

This proxy statement (the “Proxy Statement”) and our annual report for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 (the “Annual Report” and, together with the Proxy Statement, the “proxy materials”) are being furnished by and on behalf of the board of directors (the “Board” or the “Board of Directors”) of Sadot Group Inc. (the “Company,” “Sadot Group,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), in connection with our 2025 annual meeting of stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”).

EXPLANATORY NOTE

On September 9, 2025, the Company filed a Certificate of Change Pursuant to NRS 78.209 with the Nevada Secretary of State to effect a reverse stock split of the Company’s common stock at a ratio of one-for-ten (the “Reverse Stock Split”), which became effective 12:01 am eastern on September 15, 2025. As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, every 10 shares of the Company’s common stock issued and outstanding on the effective date were consolidated into one issued and outstanding share. There was no change in the par value of our common stock. Our Common Stock began trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market on a post-reverse split basis at the open of business on September 15, 2025. All information in this Proxy Statement gives effect to the Reverse Stock Split and all share amounts and exercise or conversion prices have been adjusted to reflect the Reverse Stock Split.

GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT THE ANNUAL MEETING AND VOTING

When and where will the Annual Meeting be held?

The Annual Meeting will be held on *, 2025 at 10:00 a.m., Central Time at virtually via live webcast at *.

What are the purposes of the Annual Meeting?

The purpose of the Annual Meeting is to vote on the following items described in this Proxy Statement:

Notice of Internet Availability (Notice and Access)

Instead of mailing a printed copy of our proxy materials to each stockholder, we are furnishing proxy materials via the Internet under SEC rules known as “Notice and Access.” This delivery procedure reduces both the costs and the environmental impact of sending our proxy materials to our stockholders, allows more efficient delivery of such materials to stockholders, and lowers the administrative costs of printing and mailing such materials. If you received a “Notice of Internet Availability,” you will not receive a printed copy of the proxy materials unless you specifically request a printed copy. The Notice of Internet Availability will instruct you how to access and review the important information contained in the proxy materials. The Notice of Internet Availability also instructs you how to submit your proxy on the Internet and how to vote in person.

Stockholders who receive a Notice of Internet Availability will be able to access the proxy materials at www.*.com. The Notice will contain instructions on how to:

You may request a free copy of the proxy materials by:

We will send (via email or first-class mail) a paper or electronic copy of the proxy materials within three business days after receiving your request. We will continue to send you paper copies of the proxy materials for future annual meetings unless you revoke this request. If you received paper copies of our proxy materials and wish to receive all future proxy materials electronically, please follow the electronic delivery instructions on www.*.com. We encourage stockholders to take advantage of the availability of the proxy materials on the Internet to help reduce the cost and environmental impact of our annual stockholder meetings. The proxy materials will remain available on www.proxyvote.com for at least one year after the conclusion of the Annual Meeting. For stockholders receiving a Notice of Internet Availability, to attend the virtual Annual Meeting, vote your shares electronically, or submit questions during the live webcast, you must use the 16-digit control number included in the Notice. This control number is required to access the meeting platform at www.*. Please have your control number available when accessing the website, and log in at least 15 minutes before the 10:00 a.m. Central Time start time to allow for check-in.

Are there any matters to be voted on at the Annual Meeting that are not included in this Proxy Statement?

At the date this Proxy Statement was filed with the SEC, we did not know of any matters to be properly presented at the Annual Meeting other than those referred to in this Proxy Statement. If other matters are properly presented at the meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof for consideration, and you are a stockholder of record and have submitted a proxy card, the persons named in your proxy card will have the discretion to vote on those matters for you.

What is included in these materials?

These materials include:

What does it mean if I receive more than one set of proxy materials?

It means that your shares are held in more than one account at the transfer agent and/or with banks or brokers. Please vote all of your shares. To ensure that all of your shares are voted, for each set of proxy materials, please submit your proxy by phone, via the Internet, or, if you received printed copies of the proxy materials, by signing, dating and returning the enclosed proxy card in the enclosed envelope.

Who is entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting?

Holders of record of shares of our common stock as of the close of business on *, 2025 (the “Record Date”) will be entitled to notice of and to vote at the Annual Meeting and any continuation, postponement or adjournment thereof. At the close of business on the record date, there were * shares of our common stock (on a post reverse split basis) issued and outstanding and entitled to vote. On September 9, 2025, the Company filed a Certificate of Change Pursuant to NRS 78.209 with the Nevada Secretary of State to effect a reverse stock split of the Company’s common stock at a ratio of one-for-ten (the “Reverse Stock Split”), which became effective 12:01 am eastern on September 15, 2025. As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, every 10 shares of the Company’s common stock issued and outstanding on the effective date were consolidated into one issued and outstanding share. There was no change in the par value of our common stock. Our Common Stock began trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market on a post-reverse split basis at the open of business on September 15, 2025. Each share of our common stock is entitled to one vote on any matter presented to stockholders at the Annual Meeting. You will need to obtain your own Internet access if you choose to attend the Annual Meeting online and/or vote over the Internet.

Only record holders and beneficial owners of our common stock, or their duly authorized proxies, may attend the Annual Meeting. If your shares of common stock are held in street name, you will need to bring a copy of a brokerage statement or other documentation reflecting your stock ownership as of the Record Date.

What is the difference between being a “record holder” and holding shares in “street name”?

A record holder (also called a “registered holder”) holds shares in his or her name. Shares held in “street name” means that shares are held in the name of a bank, broker or other nominee on the holder’s behalf.

What do I do if my shares are held in “street name”?

If your shares are held in a brokerage account or by a bank or other holder of record, you are considered the “beneficial owner” of shares held in “street name.” The proxy materials, if you elected to receive a hard copy, has been forwarded to you by your broker, bank or other nominee who is considered, with respect to those shares, the stockholder of record. As the beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your broker, bank or other holder of record on how to vote your shares by following their instructions for voting. Please refer to information from your bank, broker or other nominee on how to submit your voting instructions.

How many shares must be present to hold the Annual Meeting?

A quorum must be present at the Annual Meeting for any business to be conducted. The holders of one-third in voting power of our capital stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote, present in person, or by remote communication, or represented by proxy constitutes a quorum. If you sign and return your paper proxy card or authorize a proxy to vote electronically or telephonically, your shares will be counted to determine whether we have a quorum even if you abstain or fail to vote as indicated in the proxy materials.

Broker non-votes will also be considered present for the purpose of determining whether there is a quorum for the Annual Meeting.

What are abstentions and broker non-votes?

While the inspector of elections will treat shares represented by proxies that reflect abstentions or include “broker non-votes” as shares that are present and entitled to vote for purposes of determining the presence of a quorum, abstentions or “broker non-votes” do not constitute a vote “for” or “against” any matter and thus will be disregarded in any calculation of “votes cast.” However, abstentions and “broker non-votes” will have the effect of a negative vote if an item requires the approval of a majority of a quorum or of a specified proportion of all issued and outstanding shares.

Brokers holding shares of record for customers generally are not entitled to vote on “non-routine” matters, unless they receive voting instructions from their customers. As used herein, “uninstructed shares” means shares held by a broker who has not received voting instructions from its customers on a proposal. A “broker non-vote” occurs when a nominee holding uninstructed shares for a beneficial owner does not vote on a particular proposal because the nominee does not have discretionary voting power with respect to that non-routine matter. Under New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) rules, if your shares are held by a member organization, as that term is defined under NYSE rules, responsibility for making a final determination as to whether a specific proposal constitutes a routine or non-routine matter rests with that organization, or third parties acting on its behalf.

What if a quorum is not present at the Annual Meeting?

If a quorum is not present or represented at the scheduled time of the Annual Meeting, (i) the chairperson of the Annual Meeting or (ii) a majority in voting power of the stockholders entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting, present electronically or represented by proxy, may adjourn the Annual Meeting until a quorum is present or represented.

How do I vote my shares without attending the Annual Meeting?

We recommend that stockholders vote by proxy even if they plan to attend the Annual Meeting and vote electronically. If you are a stockholder of record, there are four ways to vote by proxy:

Internet voting facilities for stockholders of record will be available 24 hours a day and will close at 11:59 p.m., Central Time, on *, 2025.

If your shares are held in the name of a bank, broker or other holder of record, you will receive instructions on how to vote from the bank, broker or holder of record. You must follow the instructions of such bank, broker or holder of record in order for your shares to be voted.

How can I get electronic access to the proxy materials?

The Notice provides you with instructions regarding how to:

Choosing to receive future proxy materials by email will save the Company the cost of printing and mailing documents to you and will reduce the impact of the Company’s annual stockholder meetings on the environment. If you choose to receive future proxy materials by email, you will receive an email message next year with instructions containing a link to those materials and a link to the proxy voting website. Your election to receive proxy materials by email will remain in effect until you terminate it.

How can I attend and vote at the Annual Meeting?

The Annual Meeting will be a completely virtual meeting of stockholders conducted via live webcast. If you were a stockholder as of the Record Date, or you hold a valid proxy for the Annual Meeting, you can attend, vote, and submit questions at the virtual Annual Meeting by visiting www.* and entering the 16-digit control number included with your proxy materials. Online access will begin at 9:45 a.m. Central Time.

How does the Board recommend that I vote?

The Board recommends that you vote:

How many votes are required to approve each proposal?

The table below summarizes the proposals that will be voted on, the vote required to approve each item and how votes are counted:

What if I do not specify how my shares are to be voted?

If you submit a proxy but do not indicate any voting instructions, the persons named as proxies will vote in accordance with the recommendations of the Board. The Board’s recommendations are set forth above, as well as with the description of each proposal in this Proxy Statement.

Can revoke or change my vote after I submit my proxy?

Yes. Whether you have voted by Internet, telephone or mail, if you are a stockholder of record, you may change your vote and revoke your proxy by:

If you hold shares in street name, you may submit new voting instructions by contacting your bank, broker or other nominee. You may also change your vote or revoke your proxy at the Annual Meeting if you obtain a signed proxy from the record holder (broker, bank or other nominee) giving you the right to vote the shares.

Your most recent proxy card or telephone or Internet proxy is the one that is counted. Your attendance at the Annual Meeting by itself will not revoke your proxy unless you give written notice of revocation to the Company before your proxy is voted or you vote at the Annual Meeting.

Who will pay for the cost of this proxy solicitation?

We will pay the cost of soliciting proxies. Proxies may be solicited on our behalf by directors, officers or employees (for no additional compensation) in person or by telephone, electronic transmission and facsimile transmission. Brokers and other nominees will be requested to solicit proxies or authorizations from beneficial owners and will be reimbursed for their reasonable expenses.

How can I Find out the Results of the Voting at the Annual Meeting?

Preliminary voting results will be announced at the Annual Meeting. In addition, final voting results will be disclosed in a Current Report on Form 8-K that we expect to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) within four business days after the Annual Meeting. If final voting results are not available to us in time to file a Form 8-K with the SEC within four business days after the Annual Meeting, we intend to file a Form 8-K to publish preliminary results and, within four business days after the final results are known to us, file an additional Form 8-K to publish the final results.

PROPOSAL NO. 1 ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

Board Size and Structure

Our board of directors currently consists of five (5) directors. We have nominated the below five (5) directors to serve for the following year. Our articles of incorporation, as amended, provides that the number of directors on our board of directors shall be fixed exclusively by resolution adopted by our board of directors.

When considering whether directors have the experience, qualifications, attributes or skills, taken as a whole, to enable our board of directors to satisfy its oversight responsibilities effectively in light of our business and structure, the board of directors focuses primarily on each person’s background and experience as reflected in the information discussed in each of the directors’ individual biographies set forth below. We believe that our directors provide an appropriate mix of experience and skills relevant to the size and nature of our business.

Nominees for Director

Each person nominated for election has agreed to serve if elected, and management has no reason to believe that any nominee will be unable to serve. If, however, prior to the Annual Meeting, the Board of Directors should learn that any nominee will be unable to serve for any reason, the proxies that otherwise would have been voted for this nominee will be voted for a substitute nominee as selected by the Board. Alternatively, the proxies, at the Board’s discretion, may be voted for that fewer number of nominees as results from the inability of any nominee to serve. The Board has no reason to believe that any of the nominees will be unable to serve.

The following pages contain certain biographical information as of November 2, 2024 for each nominee for director, including all positions he holds, his principal occupation and business experience for the past five years, and the names of other publicly-held companies of which the director or nominee currently serves as a director or has served as a director during the past five years.

Information Concerning the Board and Corporate Governance

Meetings of the Board of Directors

The board of directors met five times during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024. The audit committee met five times, the compensation committee met five times and the nominating and corporate governance committee met five times. Each member of the board of directors, attended at least 80% of the aggregate number of meetings of our board of directors, provided that two directors, which have resigned, only attended at least 60%. We encourage all of our directors and nominees for director to attend our annual meeting of stockholders; however, attendance is not mandatory.

Board Leadership Structure and Board’s Role in Risk Oversight

Liat Franco is currently our Chairperson. The Chairperson has authority, among other things, to preside over Board meetings and set the agenda for Board meetings. Accordingly, the Chairperson has substantial ability to shape the work of our Board. We currently believe that separation of the roles of Chairperson and Chief Executive Officer ensures appropriate oversight by the Board of our business and affairs. However, no single leadership model is right for all companies and at all times. The Board recognizes that depending on the circumstances, other leadership models, such as the appointment of a lead independent director, might be appropriate. Accordingly, the Board may periodically review its leadership structure. In addition, following the qualification of the offering, the Board will hold executive sessions in which only independent directors are present.

Our Board is generally responsible for the oversight of corporate risk in its review and deliberations relating to our activities. Our principal source of risk falls into two categories, financial and product commercialization. The audit committee oversees management of financial risks; our Board regularly reviews information regarding our cash position, liquidity and operations, as well as the risks associated with each. The Board regularly reviews plans, results and potential risks related to our system-wide restaurant growth, brand awareness and menu offerings. Our Compensation Committee is expected to oversee risk management as it relates to our compensation plans, policies and practices for all employees including executives and directors, particularly whether our compensation programs may create incentives for our employees to take excessive or inappropriate risks which could have a material adverse effect on the Company.

Role of Board in Risk Oversight Process

Risk assessment and oversight are an integral part of our governance and management processes. Our board of directors encourages management to promote a culture that incorporates risk management into our corporate strategy and day-to-day business operations. Management discusses strategic and operational risks at regular management meetings, and conducts specific strategic planning and review sessions during the year that include a focused discussion and analysis of the risks facing us. Throughout the year, senior management reviews these risks with the board of directors at regular board meetings as part of management presentations that focus on particular business functions, operations or strategies, and presents the steps taken by management to mitigate or eliminate such risks.

Our board of directors does not have a standing risk management committee, but rather administers this oversight function directly through our board of directors as a whole, as well as through various standing committees of our board of directors that address risks inherent in their respective areas of oversight. While our board of directors is responsible for monitoring and assessing strategic risk exposure, our audit committee is responsible for overseeing our major financial risk exposures and the steps our management has taken to monitor and control these exposures. The audit committee also monitors compliance with legal and regulatory requirements and considers and approves or disapproves any related person transactions. Our nominating and governance committee monitors the effectiveness of our corporate governance policies. Our compensation committee assesses and monitors whether any of our compensation policies and programs has the potential to encourage excessive risk-taking.

Independence of Board of Directors and its Committees

Our stock (symbol: SDOT) is listed on the NASDAQ capital market. Under the rules of Nasdaq, “independent” directors must make up a majority of a listed company’s board of directors. In addition, applicable Nasdaq rules require that, subject to specified exceptions, each member of a listed company’s audit and compensation committees be independent within the meaning of the applicable Nasdaq rules. Audit committee members must also satisfy the independence criteria set forth in Rule 10A-3 under the Exchange Act.

Our board of directors currently consists of five (5) members. Our board of directors has determined that Sean Schnapp, Alexander David, Liat Franco and Yuriy Shirinyan, qualify as independent directors in accordance with the Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”) listing requirements. Chagay Ravid is not considered independent. Nasdaq’s independence definition includes a series of objective tests, such as that the director is not, and has not been for at least three (3) years, one of our employees and that neither the director nor any of his or her family members has engaged in various types of business dealings with us. In addition, as required by Nasdaq rules, our board of directors has made a subjective determination as to each independent director that no relationships exist that, in the opinion of our board of directors, would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director. In making these determinations, our board of directors reviewed and discussed information provided by the directors and us with regard to each director’s business and personal activities and relationships as they may relate to us and our management. There are no family relationships among any of our directors or executive officers.

As required under Nasdaq rules and regulations, our independent directors meet in regularly scheduled executive sessions at which only independent directors are present.

Committees of the Board of Directors

The Board of Directors has already established an Audit Committee (the “Audit Committee”), a Compensation Committee (the “Compensation Committee”), a Sustainability Committee (the “Sustainability Committee”) and a Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee (“Governance Committee”). The composition and function of each committee are described below.

PROPOSAL NO. 3 – AMENDMENT OF THE COMPANY’S ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION TO INCREASE THE NUMBER OF AUTHORIZED SHARES OF COMMON STOCK

General.

On November 19, 2025, the board of directors unanimously adopted, subject to shareholder approval, an amendment to Article Third of the Company’s Articles of Incorporation to increase the number of shares of common stock the Company is authorized to issue by 248,000,000 shares, from 2,000,000 shares to 250,000,000 shares. As of the close of business on November 24, 2025, 1,549,080 shares of common stock were outstanding and an additional 338,600 shares were either issuable pursuant to outstanding convertible securities, options and warrants or reserved for future grants under the Company’s management incentive and employee benefits plans. The full text of the proposed amendment is attached to this proxy statement as Annex A, and the following description is qualified in its entirety by Annex A.

If this proposal is approved by our shareholders, the Company will have a total of 260,000,000 authorized shares of stock, of which 250,000,000 shares will be common stock and 10,000,000 shares will be preferred stock.

Reason for the Increase in the Number of Authorized Shares of Common Stock.

The Board believes that an increase in the number of authorized shares of common stock is desirable. The increase will provide the Company with the flexibility to issue shares of common stock in connection with possible future stock dividends or stock splits, equity financings, opportunities for expanding our business through investments, acquisitions or strategic business alliances, management incentive and employee benefit plans and for other general corporate purposes, while avoiding the additional expense and delay of calling a special shareholders’ meeting to authorize the issuance of stock.

The Company has no present plan, agreement or understanding involving the issuance of its common stock, except for shares required or permitted to be issued under management incentive and employee benefit plans or upon the exercise of outstanding stock options or warrants. It is possible, however, that merger and acquisition opportunities involving the issuance of shares of common stock will develop. It is also possible that an increase in the market price for the Company’s common stock, and conditions in capital markets generally, may make a stock dividend, a stock split or a public offering of the Company’s common stock desirable. The proposed increase in authorized common stock would provide the board of directors with greater flexibility to declare stock dividends in the future or to otherwise respond to corporate opportunities.

Each additional share of the Company’s common stock authorized by the amendment will have the same rights and privileges as each share of common stock currently authorized or outstanding. The holders of common stock have no preemptive rights. Authorized but unissued shares of the Company’s common stock, including the shares of common stock covered by this proposal, may be issued at such times, for such purposes and for such consideration as the board of directors may determine to be appropriate without further authority from or approval by the shareholders of the Company, except as may be required by applicable law, Securities and Exchange Commission rules or regulations or Nasdaq listing regulations, or as the board of directors deems advisable.

Possible Adverse Effects of the Proposal.

The approval of the proposed amendment will result in a greater number of shares of common stock available for issuance. Because there are no preemptive rights, shareholders may experience a significant reduction in their shareholders’ interest with respect to earnings per share, voting, liquidation value and book and market value per share if the additional authorized shares are issued, other than through a proportional issuance, such as a stock split or stock dividend.

Possible Anti-Takeover Effects of the Proposal.

An increase in the authorized number of shares of common stock and the issuance of the shares may also have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control of the Company. Shares of authorized and unissued common stock could be issued (within the limits imposed by applicable law) in one or more transactions which would make a change in control of the Company more difficult and therefore less likely. Any issuance of additional stock could have the effect of diluting the earnings per share and book value per share of outstanding shares of common stock and could be used to dilute the stock ownership or voting rights of a person seeking to obtain control of the Company or to remove incumbent management.

Proposal No. 3 is not in response to any effort by an outside party to accumulate Company common stock, nor is the Company aware of any such effort. Further, it is not in response to any attempt to acquire control of the Company, nor is the Company aware of any such attempt. Proposal No. 3 is not part of a plan by the Company to adopt a series of anti-takeover measures, nor does the Company have any present intention of proposing the adoption of anti-takeover measures in the future.

Required Vote

Approval of the amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation to increase the shares of common stock authorized requires the receipt of the affirmative vote of a majority of the total possible votes represented by the Company’s common stock outstanding as of the record date.

Board Recommendation

The Board of Directors unanimously recommends a vote FOR the amendment to our Articles of Incorporation to increase the authorized shares of common stock from 2,000.000 to 250,000.000.

PROPOSAL NO. 4 - APPROVAL OF THE 2025 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN

We are asking our stockholders to approve our 2025 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2025 Plan”). On November 19, 2025, our Board approved the 2025 Plan, subject to stockholder approval.

If approved by stockholders, the Plan will supplement all of our outstanding equity incentive plans. To date, we have issued an aggregate of 6,561 shares of common stock to our management team, consultants and Board of Directors under the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan, 24,238 shares of common stock to our management team, consultants and Board of Directors under the 2023 Equity Incentive Plan, 82,047 shares of common stock to our management team, consultants and Board of Directors under the 2024 Equity Incentive Plan. Specifically, the Plan will supplement our existing plans.

When our stockholders approve the 2025 Plan, we will be able to issue approximately an additional 7,000,000 shares of common stock to our management team, consultants and Board of Directors under the 2025 Equity Incentive Plan shares above the number of shares already subject to outstanding equity awards to employees. Upon adoption of the 2025 Plan, we will no longer issue grants under the existing plans, but the existing grants to our management team and Board of Directors will continue to remain outstanding.

The purpose of the 2025 Plan is to attract and retain key personnel and to provide a means for directors, officers, managers, employees, consultants and advisors to acquire and maintain an interest in the Company, which interest may be measured by reference to the value of its common stock.

Grants of stock options to our named executive officers and our directors are made from our 2021, 2023 and 2024 Plans. In 2031, 2033 and 2034, the 2021, 2023and the 2024 Plan will expire and we will not be able to issue equity to our named executive officers or our directors unless our stockholders approve a new stock plan. While we could increase cash compensation if we are unable to grant equity incentives, we anticipate that we will have difficulty attracting, retaining, and motivating our named executive officers and our directors if we are unable to make equity grants to them. Stock options are a more effective executive compensation vehicle than cash at a growth-oriented, entrepreneurial company because they deliver high potential value with a smaller impact on current income and cash flow. Therefore, we are asking our stockholders to approve the Plan.

If approved by the Company’s stockholders, the Plan will be effective as of the date the stockholders approved the 2025 Plan. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this proposal shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the 2025 Plan document. The following description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the 2025 Plan document, a copy of which is attached as Annex B.

Administration

The Company’s Board of Directors or a committee appointed by the Board (the “Committee”) will administer the 2025 Plan. The Committee will have the authority, without limitation (i) to designate Participants to receive Awards, (ii) determine the types of Awards to be granted to Participants, (iii) determine the number of shares of common stock to be covered by Awards, (iv) determine the terms and conditions of any Awards granted under the Plan, (v) determine to what extent and under what circumstances Awards may be settled in cash, shares of common stock, other securities, other Awards or other property, or canceled, forfeited or suspended, (vi) determine whether, to what extent, and under what circumstances the delivery of cash, Common Stock, other securities, other Awards or other property and other amounts payable with respect to an Award shall be made; (vii) interpret, administer, reconcile any inconsistency in, settle any controversy regarding, correct any defect in and/or complete any omission in this Plan and any instrument or agreement relating to, or Award granted under, this Plan; (viii) establish, amend, suspend, or waive any rules and regulations and appoint such agents as the Committee shall deem appropriate for the proper administration of this Plan; (ix) accelerate the vesting or exercisability of, payment for or lapse of restrictions on, Awards; (x) reprice existing Awards with shareholder approval or to grant Awards in connection with or in consideration of the cancellation of an outstanding Award with a higher price; and (xi) make any other determination and take any other action that the Committee deems necessary or desirable for the administration of this Plan. The Committee will have full discretion to administer and interpret the Plan and to adopt such rules, regulations and procedures as it deems necessary or advisable and to determine, among other things, the time or times at which the awards may be exercised and whether and under what circumstances an award may be exercised.

Eligibility

Employees, directors, officers, advisors and consultants of the Company or its affiliates are eligible to participate in the Plan and are referred to as “Participants”. The Committee has the sole and complete authority to determine who will be granted an Award under the Plan, however, it may delegate such authority to one or more officers of the Company under the circumstances set forth in the Plan.

Number of Shares Authorized

Up to 7,000,000 shares of common stock may be issued pursuant to awards granted under the 2025 Plan.

If an Award is forfeited, canceled, or if any Option terminates, expires or lapses without being exercised, the Common Stock subject to such Award will again be made available for future grant. However, shares that are used to pay the exercise price of an Option or that are withheld to satisfy the Participant’s tax withholding obligation will not be available for re-grant under the Plan.

If there is any change in the Company’s corporate capitalization or structure, the Committee in its sole discretion may make substitutions or adjustments to the number of shares of common stock reserved for issuance under the Plan, the number of shares covered by Awards then outstanding under the Plan, the limitations on Awards under the Plan, the exercise price of outstanding Options and such other equitable substitution or adjustments as it may determine appropriate.

The 2025 Plan will have a term of ten years and no further Awards may be granted under the Plan after that date.

Awards Available for Grant

The Committee may grant Awards of Non-Qualified Stock Options, Incentive Stock Options, Stock Appreciation Rights, Restricted Stock Awards, Restricted Stock Units, Stock Bonus Awards, Performance Compensation Awards (including cash bonus awards) or any combination of the foregoing. Notwithstanding, the Committee may not grant to any one person in any one calendar year Awards (i) for more than 50% of the Available Shares in the aggregate or (ii) payable in cash in an amount exceeding $10,000,000 in the aggregate.

Options

The Committee will be authorized to grant Options to purchase Common Stock that are either “qualified,” meaning they are intended to satisfy the requirements of Code Section 422 for Incentive Stock Options, or “non-qualified,” meaning they are not intended to satisfy the requirements of Section 422 of the Code. Options granted under the Plan will be subject to the terms and conditions established by the Committee. Under the terms of the Plan, unless the Committee determines otherwise in the case of an Option substituted for another Option in connection with a corporate transaction, the exercise price of the Options will not be less than the fair market value (as determined under the Plan) of the shares of common stock on the date of grant. Options granted under the Plan will be subject to such terms, including the exercise price and the conditions and timing of exercise, as may be determined by the Committee and specified in the applicable award agreement. The maximum term of an Option granted under the Plan will be ten years from the date of grant (or five years in the case of an Incentive Stock Option granted to a 10% stockholder). Payment in respect of the exercise of an Option may be made in cash or by check, by surrender of unrestricted shares of Common Stock (at their fair market value on the date of exercise) that have been held by the participant for any period deemed necessary by the Company’s accountants to avoid an additional compensation charge or have been purchased on the open market, or the Committee may, in its discretion and to the extent permitted by law, allow such payment to be made through a broker-assisted cashless exercise mechanism, a net exercise method, or by such other method as the Committee may determine to be appropriate.

Stock Appreciation Rights

The Committee will be authorized to award Stock Appreciation Rights (or SARs) under the Plan. SARs will be subject to such terms and conditions as established by the Committee. A SAR is a contractual right that allows a participant to receive, either in the form of cash, shares or any combination of cash and shares, the appreciation, if any, in the value of a share over a certain period of time. A SAR granted under the Plan may be granted in tandem with an option and SARs may also be awarded to a participant independent of the grant of an Option. SARs granted in connection with an Option shall be subject to terms similar to the Option which corresponds to such SARs. SARs shall be subject to terms established by the Committee and reflected in the award agreement.

Restricted Stock

The Committee will be authorized to award Restricted Stock under the 2025 Plan. Unless otherwise provided by the Committee and specified in an award agreement, restrictions on Restricted Stock will lapse after three years of service with the Company. The Committee will determine the terms of such Restricted Stock awards. Restricted Stock are shares of common stock that generally are non-transferable and subject to other restrictions determined by the Committee for a specified period. Unless the Committee determines otherwise or specifies otherwise in an award agreement, if the participant terminates employment or services during the restricted period, then any unvested restricted stock will be forfeited.

Restricted Stock Unit Awards

The Committee will be authorized to award Restricted Stock Unit awards. Unless otherwise provided by the Committee and specified in an award agreement, Restricted Stock Units will vest after three years of service with the Company. The Committee will determine the terms of such Restricted Stock Units. Unless the Committee determines otherwise or specifies otherwise in an award agreement, if the participant terminates employment or services during the period of time over which all or a portion of the units are to be earned, then any unvested units will be forfeited. At the election of the Committee, the participant will receive a number of shares of common stock equal to the number of units earned or an amount in cash equal to the fair market value of that number of shares at the expiration of the period over which the units are to be earned or at a later date selected by the Committee.

Stock Bonus Awards

The Committee will be authorized to grant Awards of unrestricted shares of common stock or other Awards denominated in shares of common stock, either alone or in tandem with other Awards, under such terms and conditions as the Committee may determine.

Performance Compensation Awards

The Committee will be authorized to grant any Award under the Plan in the form of a Performance Compensation Award exempt from the requirements of Section 162(m) of the Code by conditioning the vesting of the Award on the attainment of specific performance criteria of the Company and/or one or more Affiliates, divisions or operational units, or any combination thereof, as determined by the Committee. The Committee will select the performance criteria based on one or more of the following factors: (i) revenue; (ii) sales; (iii) profit (net profit, gross profit, operating profit, economic profit, profit margins or other corporate profit measures); (iv) earnings (EBIT, EBITDA, earnings per share, or other corporate profit measures); (v) net income (before or after taxes, operating income or other income measures); (vi) cash (cash flow, cash generation or other cash measures); (vii) stock price or performance; (viii) total stockholder return (stock price appreciation plus reinvested dividends divided by beginning share price); (ix) economic value added; (x) return measures (including, but not limited to, return on assets, capital, equity, investments or sales, and cash flow return on assets, capital, equity, or sales); (xi) market share; (xii) improvements in capital structure; (xiii) expenses (expense management, expense ratio, expense efficiency ratios or other expense measures); (xiv) business expansion or consolidation (acquisitions and divestitures); (xv) internal rate of return or increase in net present value; (xvi) working capital targets relating to inventory and/or accounts receivable; (xvii) inventory management; (xviii) service or product delivery or quality; (xix) customer satisfaction; (xx) employee retention; (xxi) safety standards; (xxii) productivity measures; (xxiii) cost reduction measures; and/or (xxiv) strategic plan development and implementation.

Transferability

Each Award may be exercised during the Participant’s lifetime only by the Participant or, if permissible under applicable law, by the Participant’s guardian or legal representative and may not be otherwise transferred or encumbered by a Participant other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. The Committee, however, may permit Awards (other than Incentive Stock Options) to be transferred to family members, a trust for the benefit of such family members, a partnership or limited liability company whose partners or stockholders are the Participant and his or her family members or anyone else approved by it.

Amendment

The 2025 Plan will have a term of ten years. The Company’s board of directors may amend, suspend or terminate the Plan at any time; however, shareholder approval to amend the Plan may be necessary if the law or SEC so requires. No amendment, suspension or termination will materially and adversely affect the rights of any Participant or recipient of any Award without the consent of the Participant or recipient.

Change in Control

Except to the extent otherwise provided in an Award or required by applicable law, in the event of a Change in Control, upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, the Committee is authorized, but not obligated, to make any of the following adjustments (or any combination thereof) in the terms and conditions of outstanding Awards: (a) continuation or assumption of outstanding Awards by the surviving company; (b) substitution by the surviving company of equity, equity-based and/or cash awards with substantially the same terms for outstanding Awards; (c) accelerated exercisability, vesting and/or lapse of restrictions under outstanding Awards immediately prior to the occurrence of the Change in Control; (d) upon written notice, provide that any outstanding Awards must be exercised, to the extent then exercisable, during a reasonable period determined by the Committee and at the end of such period, any unexercised Awards will terminate; and (e) cancellation of all or any portion of outstanding Awards for fair value (in the form of cash, shares or other property) and which value may be zero.

U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences

The following is a general summary of the material U.S. federal income tax consequences of the grant and exercise and vesting of Awards under the Plan and the disposition of shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of such Awards. This summary is intended to reflect the current provisions of the Code and the regulations thereunder. However, this summary is not intended to be a complete statement of applicable law, nor does it address foreign, state, local and payroll tax considerations. Moreover, the U.S. federal income tax consequences to any particular participant may differ from those described herein by reason of, among other things, the particular circumstances of such participant.

Options

There are a number of requirements that must be met for a particular Option to be treated as an Incentive Stock Option. One such requirement is that Common Stock acquired through the exercise of an Incentive Stock Option cannot be disposed of before the later of (i) two years from the date of grant of the Option, or (ii) one year from the date of its exercise. Holders of Incentive Stock Options will generally incur no federal income tax liability at the time of grant or upon exercise of those Options. However, the spread at exercise will be an “item of tax preference,” which may give rise to “alternative minimum tax” liability for the taxable year in which the exercise occurs. If the holder does not dispose of the shares before the later of two years following the date of grant and one year following the date of exercise, the difference between the exercise price and the amount realized upon disposition of the shares will constitute long-term capital gain or loss, as the case may be. Assuming both holding periods are satisfied, no deduction will be allowed to the Company for federal income tax purposes in connection with the grant or exercise of the Incentive Stock Option. If, within two years following the date of grant or within one year following the date of exercise, the holder of shares acquired through the exercise of an Incentive Stock Option disposes of those shares, the Participant will generally realize taxable compensation at the time of such disposition equal to the difference between the exercise price and the lesser of the Fair Market Value of the share on the date of exercise or the amount realized on the subsequent disposition of the shares, and that amount will generally be deductible by the Company for federal income tax purposes, subject to the possible limitations on deductibility under Sections 280G and 162(m) of the Code for compensation paid to executives designated in those Sections. Finally, if an otherwise Incentive Stock Option becomes first exercisable in any one year for shares having an aggregate value in excess of $100,000 (based on the date of grant value), the portion of the Incentive Stock Option in respect of those excess shares will be treated as a non-qualified stock option for federal income tax purposes.

No income will be realized by a Participant upon grant of a Non-Qualified Stock Option. Upon the exercise of a Non-Qualified Stock Option, the Participant will recognize ordinary compensation income in an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the Fair Market Value of the underlying exercised shares over the Option Exercise Price paid at the time of exercise. Such income will be subject to income tax withholdings, and the Participant will be required to pay to the Company the amount of any required withholding taxes in respect to such income.

The Company will be able to deduct this same amount for U.S. federal income tax purposes, but such deduction may be limited under Sections 280G and 162(m) of the Code for compensation paid to certain executives designated in those Sections.

Restricted Stock

A Participant will not be subject to tax upon the grant of an Award of Restricted Stock unless the Participant otherwise elects to be taxed at the time of grant pursuant to Section 83(b) of the Code. On the date an Award of Restricted Stock becomes transferable or is no longer subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture, the Participant will recognize ordinary compensation income equal to the difference between the Fair Market Value of the shares on that date over the amount the Participant paid for such shares, if any. Such income will be subject to income tax withholdings, and the Participant will be required to pay to the Company the amount of any required withholding taxes in respect to such income. If the Participant made an election under Section 83(b) of the Code, the Participant will recognize ordinary compensation income at the time of grant equal to the difference between the Fair Market Value of the shares on the date of grant over the amount the Participant paid for such shares, if any, and any subsequent appreciation in the value of the shares will be treated as a capital gain upon sale of the shares. Special rules apply to the receipt and disposition of Restricted Shares received by officers and directors who are subject to Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”). The Company will be able to deduct, at the same time as it is recognized by the Participant, the amount of taxable compensation to the participant for U.S. federal income tax purposes, but such deduction may be limited under Sections 280G and 162(m) of the Code for compensation paid to certain executives designated in those Sections.

Restricted Stock Units

A Participant will not be subject to tax upon the grant of a Restricted Stock Unit Award. Rather, upon the delivery of shares or cash pursuant to a Restricted Stock Unit Award, the Participant will recognize ordinary compensation income equal to the Fair Market Value of the number of shares (or the amount of cash) the Participant actually receives with respect to the Award. Such income will be subject to income tax withholdings, and the Participant will be required to pay to the Company the amount of any required withholding taxes in respect to such income. The Company will be able to deduct the amount of taxable compensation recognized by the Participant for U.S. federal income tax purposes, but the deduction may be limited under Sections 280G and 162(m) of the Code for compensation paid to certain executives designated in those Sections.

SARs

No income will be realized by a Participant upon grant of an SAR. Upon the exercise of an SAR, the Participant will recognize ordinary compensation income in an amount equal to the Fair Market Value of the payment received in respect of the SAR. Such income will be subject to income tax withholdings, and the Participant will be required to pay to the Company the amount of any required withholding taxes in respect to such income. The Company will be able to deduct this same amount for U.S. federal income tax purposes, but such deduction may be limited under Sections 280G and 162(m) of the Code for compensation paid to certain executives designated in those Sections.

Stock Bonus Awards

A Participant will recognize ordinary compensation income equal to the difference between the Fair Market Value of the shares on the date the shares of common stock subject to the Award are transferred to the Participant over the amount the Participant paid for such shares, if any, and any subsequent appreciation in the value of the shares will be treated as a capital gain upon sale of the shares. The Company will be able to deduct, at the same time as it is recognized by the Participant, the amount of taxable compensation to the Participant for U.S. federal income tax purposes, but such deduction may be limited under Sections 280G and 162(m) of the Code for compensation paid to certain executives designated in those Sections.

Section 162(m)

In general, Section 162(m) of the Code denies a publicly held corporation a deduction for U.S. federal income tax purposes for compensation in excess of $1,000,000 per year per person paid to its principal executive officer and the three other officers (other than the principal executive officer and principal financial officer) whose compensation is disclosed in its proxy statement/prospectus as a result of their total compensation, subject to certain exceptions. The Plan is intended to satisfy an exception with respect to grants of Options to covered employees. In addition, the Plan is designed to permit certain Awards of Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units, cash bonus awards and other Awards to be awarded as performance compensation awards intended to qualify under the “performance-based compensation” exception to Section 162(m) of the Code.

New Plan Benefits

Future grants under the Plan will be made at the discretion of the Committee and, accordingly, are not yet determinable. In addition, the value of the Awards granted under the Plan will depend on a number of factors, including the Fair Market Value of the shares of common stock on future dates, the exercise decisions made by the Participants and/or the extent to which any applicable performance goals necessary for vesting or payment are achieved. Consequently, it is not possible to determine the benefits that might be received by Participants receiving discretionary grants under, or having their annual bonus paid pursuant to, the Plan.

Interests of Directors or Officers

The Company’s directors may grant Awards under the Plan to themselves as well as to the Company’s officers and other employees, consultants and advisors.

Board Recommendation

The Board of Directors unanimously recommends a vote FOR the adoption of the 2025 Plan.

PROPOSAL NO. 5

TO APPROVE THE ISSUANCE OF SHARES OF COMMON STOCK TO HELENA PURSUANT TO THE TERMS OF A PURCHASE AGREEMENT INCLUDED AS APPENDIX C TO THIS PROXY STATEMENT, WITH SUCH MODIFICATIONS, AMENDMENTS, OR CHANGES (CONSISTENT WITH THE INTENT AND PURPOSE OF THIS PROPOSAL) AGREED UPON BY THE PARTIES TO THE PURCHASE AGREEMENT, AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE STOCKHOLDER APPROVAL REQUIREMENTS OF NASDAQ LISTING RULES 5635.

At our annual meeting, holders of our Common Stock will be asked to approve, for purposes of compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rules 5635(b) and 5635(d), the issuance of up to shares of our Common Stock to Helena, in connection with and pursuant to a Purchase Agreement, dated September 23, 2025 by and between the Company and Helena, a copy of which is attached hereto as Annex C, with such modifications, amendments, or changes (consistent with the intent and purpose of this proposal) agreed upon by the parties to the SEPA, and in accordance with the stockholder approval requirements of Nasdaq Listing Rules 5635(b) and 5635(d), pursuant to which Helena is committed, subject to the conditions and limitations set forth in the Purchase Agreement to purchase up to an aggregate of $10,000,000 in shares of Common Stock during the term of the Purchase Agreement.

Background

On September 23, 2025, the Company entered into a Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Helena. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company shall have the right to issue and sell to Helena, from time to time as provided therein, and Helena shall purchase from the Company, up to $10,000,000 (the “Commitment Amount”) of the Company’s Common stock, subject to certain limitations and conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement. The Company is not obligated to sell any shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Purchase Agreement except as specified therein.

Under the Purchase Agreement, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, the Company may, in its sole discretion, deliver written notices (each, an “Advance Notice”) to Helena to purchase a portion of the Commitment Amount (each, an “Advance”). The amount of each Advance may not exceed the Maximum Advance Amount, which is the lesser of (i) 100% of the average of the Daily Value Traded of the Common Stock over the ten (10) Trading Days immediately preceding an Advance Notice, and (ii) $5,000,000, unless otherwise mutually agreed by the parties. For purposes of the Purchase Agreement, “Daily Value Traded” is the product obtained by multiplying the daily trading volume of the Common Stock on the Principal Market during regular trading hours as reported by Bloomberg L.P., by the VWAP for such Trading Day.

The shares of Common Stock purchased pursuant to an Advance will be purchased at a price (the “Purchase Price”) equal to 97% of the lowest daily closing VWAP during the Pricing Period minus clearing fees, brokerage fees, transfer agent fees and legal costs associated with the applicable Advance; provided that if during any Trading Day during the Pricing Period the VWAP at the end of any given 1-hour interval has changed by +/- 7% versus the previous 1-hour interval, the VWAP for such Trading Day will be deemed to be 90% of Helena’s sale execution for that day in respect of the Common Stock. The Pricing Period is generally three (3) Trading Days commencing on the date of Helena’s receipt of the Common Stock relating to such Advance (subject to adjustments for Secondary Advances). The last 30 minutes of trading on such Trading Day during the Pricing Period will be deemed as the final “1-hour” interval of such Trading Day.

Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company agreed that if it has not submitted Advance Notices in an aggregate amount of at least $2,000,000 (the “Threshold Amount”) prior to the date that is six (6) months following the effective date of the registration, it shall pay to Helena in liquidated damages the amount of $100,000 for every 30 day period thereafter until it shall have submitted Advance Notices in an amount equal to the Threshold Amount.

Sales of shares of Common Stock to Helena under the Purchase Agreement will be subject to certain limitations, including (i) an Ownership Limitation providing that the Company shall not issue, and Helena shall not purchase, any shares of Common Stock if such issuance would cause Helena’s beneficial ownership to exceed 4.99% of the then issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock, (ii) a Registration Limitation providing that the Company shall not issue any shares of Common Stock if such issuance would exceed the number of Registrable Securities registered on an effective Registration Statement, and (iii) an Exchange Cap providing that the Company shall not issue or sell any shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Purchase Agreement in an amount that would exceed 19.99% of the shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the date of the Purchase Agreement, unless stockholder approval is obtained.

In consideration for Helena’s execution and delivery of the Purchase Agreement, the Company shall issue to Helena Commitment Fee Shares having an aggregate value of $100,000, calculated as $100,000 divided by the lowest one-day VWAP during the five (5) Trading Days immediately preceding the entry into the Purchase Agreement (the “Original Commitment Fee Share Amount”). If the closing price of the Common Stock on the Principal Market on the Trading Day the Registration Statement is declared effective is less than the Commitment Fee Share Reference Price, the Company shall issue additional Make-Whole Shares such that the total Commitment Fee Shares equal $100,000 divided by such closing price, minus the Original Commitment Fee Share Amount. The Commitment Fee Shares will bear a standard restrictive legend and be Registrable Securities under the Purchase Agreement.

The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations and warranties of the Company, indemnification rights, and agreements of the parties, as well as certain customary covenants.

The Purchase Agreement will terminate on the earliest to occur of (i) the expiration of the Commitment Period (which commences on the date of the Purchase Agreement and expires upon termination in accordance with the Purchase Agreement), (ii) the date on which Helena shall have purchased the total Commitment Amount pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, (iii) the date the Purchase Agreement is terminated pursuant to its terms, or (iv) the date on which the Common Stock fails to be listed or quoted on the Nasdaq Capital Market or other eligible market.

The Company has agreed to file a registration statement with the SEC within 15 days of the date of the Purchase Agreement (“Filing Deadline”) and to use commercially reasonable efforts to have it declared effective in no event later than 90 calendar days following the date of the Purchase Agreement (“Effectiveness Deadline”). If the Registration Statement is not filed by the Filing Deadline or declared effective by the Effectiveness Deadline, the Company will be unable to issue Advances under the Purchase Agreement until such registration statement is filed and effective, as Helena would be unable to resell the shares without an effective Registration Statement. Such failure may constitute a material breach of the Purchase Agreement, entitling Helena to terminate the Agreement and seek other remedies, including indemnification for any losses incurred. If the registration statement is not filed on or prior to the Filing Deadline or a registration statement is not declared effective by the SEC by the Effectiveness Deadline, then, in addition to any other rights Helena may have hereunder or under applicable law, on each such Event Date and on each monthly anniversary of each such Event Date, the Company shall pay to Helena an amount in cash, as partial liquidated damages and not as a penalty, equal to the product of 2.0% multiplied by the Commitment Amount.

The Company intends to use the net proceeds from any sales of Common Stock pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, if any, for working capital and general corporate purposes.

Stockholder Approval Requirement

As noted above, the issuance of shares of common stock in excess of 19.99% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s Common Stock under the Purchase Agreement to Helena is subject to approval by the Company’s stockholders in compliance with the applicable Listing Rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market. The Common Stock is listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market and, as such, the Company is subject to the Nasdaq Listing Rules.

Because our Common Stock is listed on the Nasdaq, we are subject to Nasdaq’s rules and regulations. Pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(b), stockholder approval is required prior to the issuance of securities that will result in a change of control of a listed company, which for purposes of Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(b) is generally deemed to occur when an investor or investor group acquires or has the right to acquire 20% or more of a company’s outstanding common stock or voting power and such ownership or voting power would be the largest ownership position. Shareholders should note that a “change of control” as described under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(b) applies only with respect to the application of such rule and does not constitute a “change of control” for purposes of Nevada law, our organizational documents, or any other purpose.

 Pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d), stockholder approval is required prior to a 20% Issuance at a price that is less than the Minimum Price. For purposes of Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d), (A) “20% Issuance” means a transaction, other than a public offering, involving: (i) the sale, issuance or potential issuance by us of Common Stock (or securities convertible into or exercisable for Common Stock), which alone or together with sales by our officers, directors, or substantial stockholders equals 20% or more of Common Stock (which for purposes of this calculation,

includes issued and outstanding shares of our voting Common Stock and non-voting common stock) or 20% or more of the voting power outstanding before the issuance and (B) “Minimum Price” means a price that is the lower of: (i) the closing price (as reflected on Nasdaq.com) immediately preceding the signing of the binding agreement; or (ii) the average closing price of Common Stock (as reflected on Nasdaq.com) for the five trading days immediately preceding the signing of the binding agreement. In determining whether multiple issuances should be aggregated for purposes of Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d), Nasdaq will consider several factors, including the timing of the issuances. Stockholder approval of this proposal will constitute stockholder approval for purposes of Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d).

Background

On December 3, 2024, the Company entered into a Purchase Agreement (the “December 2024 Agreement”) and Registration Rights Agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) with the December 2024 Purchasers and issued an aggregate of $3.75 million aggregate principal amount of the December 2024 Notes for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $3.0 million, before deducting fees to the placement agent and other expenses payable by the Company (the “Offering”). RBW Capital Partners LLC, offering all securities through Dominari Securities LLC, served as the exclusive placement agent for the Offering. The Offering closed on December 4, 2024.

Pursuant to the December 2024 Agreement, the December 2024 Notes were issued with an original issue discount of 20%. The December 2024 Notes were to mature on December 4, 2025, unless earlier converted upon the satisfaction of certain conditions. The conversion price of the December 2024 Notes was initially $4.10 per share of common stock. The December 2024 Notes include a “Most Favored Nation” clause which grants to the December 2024 Purchasers the right to claim better conversion terms should the Company provide such to any as long as the December 2024 Notes are outstanding. The December 2024 Purchasers will be prohibited from effecting a conversion of the Notes to the extent that, as a result of such conversion, a Purchaser would beneficially own more than 9.99% of the shares of common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such conversion. The Company agreed to register the shares of common stock underlying the December 2024 Notes for resale under a Registration Statement on Form S-3, pursuant the Securities Act of 1933. The Company was required to file a registration statement by the 10th day following the closing date.

The December 2024 Notes contain a covenant prohibiting the Company to incur, guarantee or assume any indebtedness, other than certain permitted indebtedness, create or allow or suffer any mortgage, lien, security interest or other encumbrance on its property or assets , other than permitted liens, redeem, defease, repurchase, repay or make any payments in respect of any indebtedness if at the time such payment is due or is otherwise made or, after giving effect to such payment, an event of default under the Notes has occurred and is continuing, declare or pay any cash dividend or distribution on any stock or other equity interest of the Company, or make, any change in the nature of its business or modify its corporate structure or purpose. The December 2024 Notes contain customary events of default and customary penalties for the Company’s failure to issue conversion shares on a timely basis. The Registration Rights Agreement contains customary penalties for our failure to file the registration statement or cause it to become effective on a timely basis and for certain other events.

On July 23, 2025, the Company entered into an Amendment and Waiver (the “December 2024 Amendments”) with the December 2024 Purchasers, amending the December 2024 Agreement and the December 2024 Notes. Pursuant to the December 2024 Amendments, among other things:

The December 2024 Purchasers waived certain rights and provisions under the December 2024 Notes and December 2024 Agreement in connection with the offering and certain payments to other noteholders described above in connection with the offering, including the Most Favored Nation provision. Additionally, the December 2024 Amendments contain a lock-up provision prohibiting the December 2024 Purchasers from selling or otherwise disposing of Company common stock or related securities owned by the December 2024 Purchasers for a period of 90 days following execution of the December 2024 Amendments.

On September 22, 2025, the Company and the December 2024 Purchasers entered into a Waiver, which among other things, provided that the conversion price will be equal to 97% of the lowest closing price of the Common Stock during the three (3) Trading Days immediately prior to the date of conversion into shares of Common Stock. Further, the Company agreed to increase the percentage of the net proceeds of any future capital raises to repay the outstanding balance of the December 2024 Notes from 19% to 21% and agreed to a lock up of 30 days. The repayment percentage will increase to 27.5% upon repayment in full of the October 2024 Note as set forth below.

Shareholders should note that a “change of control” as described under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(b) applies only with respect to the application of such rule and does not constitute a “change of control” for purposes of Nevada law, our organizational documents, or any other purpose.

Background

On October 22, 2024, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with the October 2024 Purchaser, pursuant to which the Company issued the October 2024 Note in the principal amount of $1,375,000 for a purchase price of $1,100,000, reflecting an original issue discount of $275,000. The October 2024 Note was originally due on April 10, 2025, and bears interest payable on the maturity date.

On July 23, 2025, the Company entered into an amendment (the “October 2024 Amendment”) to the October 2024 Note.

Background

On November 20, 2025, the Company entered into the Aggia Agreement with Aggia. Pursuant to the Aggia Agreement, the Company and Aggia agreed to terminate the Services Agreement dated as of November 14, 2022, as amended (collectively, the “Agreement Documents”), and to fully settle, compromise, and discharge all claims, debts, obligations, and liabilities arising out of or related to the Agreement Documents. In full and complete satisfaction of the debt and termination of the Agreement Documents, the Company agreed to issue to Aggia, or to Aggia’s designees, an aggregate of 1,050,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Settlement Shares”) and make a payment of $75,000.

The issuance of 257,000 Settlement Shares (the “Initial Shares”) have been issued. The issuance of the remaining 793,000 Settlement Shares (the “Subsequent Shares”) is subject to obtaining requisite shareholder approval, which the Company will seek promptly by preparing and filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission all necessary proxy materials and/or other disclosures and using commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such approval at its next annual or special meeting of shareholders. If shareholder approval is not obtained by March 31, 2026, the obligation to issue the Subsequent Shares will be suspended until such approval is obtained, and the Company will continue to seek approval at subsequent meetings.

The Company commits it will not issue any Subsequent Shares under the Settlement Agreement unless and until the requisite shareholder approval under Nasdaq Rule 5635(d) has been obtained. Apart from the initial issuance of Initial Shares (which is below the 19.99% threshold), no further Settlement Shares will be issued without such shareholder approval.

The Settlement Shares will be allocated pro rata among Aggia’s designated assignees as set forth in the Settlement Agreement. The Settlement Agreement also terminates any related ancillary documents, including promissory notes issued thereunder (which will be deemed cancelled and satisfied in full upon issuance of the Settlement Shares), and eliminates any ongoing obligations under the Agreement Documents, such as services, compensation, board nomination rights, managing member representative roles, non-compete, confidentiality, or other covenants.

The Settlement Agreement includes mutual releases of all claims related to the Agreement Documents and prior transactions between the parties, as well as customary representations and warranties, confidentiality provisions, governing law (State of Texas), dispute resolution (exclusive jurisdiction in federal or state courts in Dallas County, Texas, with jury trial waiver), and other miscellaneous terms.

Stockholder Approval Requirement

As noted above, the issuance of shares of common stock in excess of 19.99% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s Common Stock pursuant to the Aggia Agreement is subject to approval by the Company’s stockholders in compliance with the applicable Listing Rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market. The Common Stock is listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market and, as such, the Company is subject to the Nasdaq Listing Rules.

Because our Common Stock is listed on Nasdaq, we are subject to Nasdaq’s rules and regulations. Pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(b), stockholder approval is required prior to the issuance of securities that will result in a change of control of a listed company, which for purposes of Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(b) is generally deemed to occur when an investor or investor group acquires or has the right to acquire 20% or more of a company’s outstanding common stock or voting power and such ownership or voting power would be the largest ownership position. Shareholders should note that a “change of control” as described under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(b) applies only with respect to the application of such rule and does not constitute a “change of control” for purposes of Nevada law, our organizational documents, or any other purpose.

 Pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d), stockholder approval is required prior to a 20% Issuance at a price that is less than the Minimum Price. For purposes of Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d), (A) “20% Issuance” means a transaction, other than a public offering, involving: (i) the sale, issuance or potential issuance by us of Common Stock (or securities convertible into or exercisable for Common Stock), which alone or together with sales by our officers, directors, or substantial stockholders equals 20% or more of Common Stock (which for purposes of this calculation, includes issued and outstanding shares of our voting Common Stock and non-voting common stock) or 20% or more of the voting power outstanding before the issuance and (B) “Minimum Price” means a price that is the lower of: (i) the closing price (as reflected on Nasdaq.com) immediately preceding the signing of the binding agreement; or (ii) the average closing price of Common Stock (as reflected on Nasdaq.com) for the five trading days immediately preceding the signing of the binding agreement. In determining whether multiple issuances should be aggregated for purposes of Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d), Nasdaq will consider several factors, including the timing of the issuances. Stockholder approval of this proposal will constitute stockholder approval for purposes of Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d).

Reasons for Transaction and Effect on Current Stockholders

Our Board of Directors has determined that allowing for the issuance of the Subsequent Shares, with such modifications, amendments, or changes (consistent with the intent and purpose of this proposal) agreed upon by Aggia, and in accordance with the stockholder approval requirements of Nasdaq Listing Rules 5635(b) and 5635(d) is in the best interests of us and our stockholders as it will allow the Company to use its cash reserves, if any, for working capital and general corporate purposes.

Required Vote

Approval of the issuance of the Subsequent Shares pursuant to the Aggia Agreement with such modifications, amendments, or changes (consistent with the intent and purpose of this proposal) agreed upon by the Company and Aggia, and in accordance with the stockholder approval requirements of Nasdaq Listing Rules 5635(b) and 5635(d), requires majority of the total possible votes represented by the Company’s Common Stock outstanding as of the record date.

Board Recommendation

The Board of Directors unanimously recommends a vote FOR the approval of the issuance of the Subsequent Shares pursuant to the Aggia Agreement, with such modifications, amendments, or changes (consistent with the intent and purpose of this proposal) agreed upon by Aggia and the Company, and in accordance with the stockholder approval requirements of Nasdaq Listing Rules 5635(b) and 5635(d).

The Committee will have full discretion to administer and interpret the Plan and to adopt such rules, regulations and procedures as it deems necessary or advisable and to determine, among other things, the time or times at which the awards may be exercised and whether and under what circumstances an award may be exercised.

Eligibility

Employees, directors, officers, advisors and consultants of the Company or its affiliates are eligible to participate in the Plan and are referred to as “Participants”. The Committee has the sole and complete authority to determine who will be granted an Award under the Plan, however, it may delegate such authority to one or more officers of the Company under the circumstances set forth in the Plan.

Number of Shares Authorized

Up to approximately 15,000 shares of common stock may be issued pursuant to awards granted under the 2021 Plan, 25,000 under the 2023 Plan and 75,000 under the 2025 Plan.

If an Award is forfeited, canceled, or if any Option terminates, expires or lapses without being exercised, the Common Stock subject to such Award will again be made available for future grant. However, shares that are used to pay the exercise price of an Option or that are withheld to satisfy the Participant’s tax withholding obligation will not be available for re-grant under the Plan.

If there is any change in the Company’s corporate pro or structure, the Committee in its sole discretion may make substitutions or adjustments to the number of shares of common stock reserved for issuance under the Plan, the number of shares covered by Awards then outstanding under the Plan, the limitations on Awards under the Plan, the exercise price of outstanding Options and such other equitable substitution or adjustments as it may determine appropriate.

The Plan has a term of ten years and no further Awards may be granted under the Plan after that date.

Awards Available for Grant

The Committee may grant Awards of Non-Qualified Stock Options, Incentive Stock Options, Stock Appreciation Rights, Restricted Stock Awards, Restricted Stock Units, Stock Bonus Awards, Performance Compensation Awards (including cash bonus awards) or any combination of the foregoing. Notwithstanding, the Committee may not grant to any one person in any one calendar year Awards (i) for more than 50% of the Available Shares in the aggregate or (ii) payable in cash in an amount exceeding $10,000,000 in the aggregate.

Options

The Committee will be authorized to grant Options to purchase Common Stock that are either “qualified,” meaning they are intended to satisfy the requirements of Code Section 422 for Incentive Stock Options, or “non-qualified,” meaning they are not intended to satisfy the requirements of Section 422 of the Code. Options granted under the Plan will be subject to the terms and conditions established by the Committee. Under the terms of the Plan, unless the Committee determines otherwise in the case of an Option substituted for another Option in connection with a corporate transaction, the exercise price of the Options will not be less than the fair market value (as determined under the Plan) of the shares of common stock on the date of grant. Options granted under the Plan will be subject to such terms, including the exercise price and the conditions and timing of exercise, as may be determined by the Committee and specified in the applicable award agreement. The maximum term of an Option granted under the Plan will be ten years from the date of grant (or five years in the case of an Incentive Stock Option granted to a 10% stockholder). Payment in respect of the exercise of an Option may be made in cash or by check, by surrender of unrestricted shares of Common Stock (at their fair market value on the date of exercise) that have been held by the participant for any period deemed necessary by the Company’s accountants to avoid an additional compensation charge or have been purchased on the open market, or the Committee may, in its discretion and to the extent permitted by law, allow such payment to be made through a broker-assisted cashless exercise mechanism, a net exercise method, or by such other method as the Committee may determine to be appropriate.

Stock Appreciation Rights

The Committee will be authorized to award Stock Appreciation Rights (or “SARs”) under the Plan. SARs will be subject to such terms and conditions as established by the Committee. A SAR is a contractual right that allows a participant to receive, either in the form of cash, shares or any combination of cash and shares, the appreciation, if any, in the value of a share over a certain period of time. A SAR granted under the Plan may be granted in tandem with an option and SARs may also be awarded to a participant independent of the grant of an Option. SARs granted in connection with an Option shall be subject to terms similar to the Option which corresponds to such SARs. SARs shall be subject to terms established by the Committee and reflected in the award agreement.

Restricted Stock

The Committee will be authorized to award Restricted Stock under the Plan. Unless otherwise provided by the Committee and specified in an award agreement, restrictions on Restricted Stock will lapse after three years of service with the Company. The Committee will determine the terms of such Restricted Stock awards. Restricted Stock are shares of common stock that generally are non-transferable and subject to other restrictions determined by the Committee for a specified period. Unless the Committee determines otherwise or specifies otherwise in an award agreement, if the participant terminates employment or services during the restricted period, then any unvested restricted stock will be forfeited.

Restricted Stock Unit Awards

The Committee will be authorized to award Restricted Stock Unit awards. Unless otherwise provided by the Committee and specified in an award agreement, Restricted Stock Units will vest after three years of service with the Company. The Committee will determine the terms of such Restricted Stock Units. Unless the Committee determines otherwise or specifies otherwise in an award agreement, if the participant terminates employment or services during the period of time over which all or a portion of the units are to be earned, then any unvested units will be forfeited. At the election of the Committee, the participant will receive a number of shares of common stock equal to the number of units earned or an amount in cash equal to the fair market value of that number of shares at the expiration of the period over which the units are to be earned or at a later date selected by the Committee.

Stock Bonus Awards

The Committee will be authorized to grant Awards of unrestricted shares of common stock or other Awards denominated in shares of common stock, either alone or in tandem with other Awards, under such terms and conditions as the Committee may determine.

Performance Compensation Awards

The Committee will be authorized to grant any Award under the Plan in the form of a Performance Compensation Award exempt from the requirements of Section 162(m) of the Code by conditioning the vesting of the Award on the attainment of specific performance criteria of the Company and/or one or more Affiliates, divisions or operational units, or any combination thereof, as determined by the Committee. The Committee will select the performance criteria based on one or more of the following factors: (i) revenue; (ii) sales; (iii) profit (net profit, gross profit, operating profit, economic profit, profit margins or other corporate profit measures); (iv) earnings (EBIT, EBITDA, earnings per share, or other corporate profit measures); (v) net income (before or after taxes, operating income or other income measures); (vi) cash (cash flow, cash generation or other cash measures); (vii) stock price or performance; (viii) total stockholder return (stock price appreciation plus reinvested dividends divided by beginning share price); (ix) economic value added; (x) return measures (including, but not limited to, return on assets, capital, equity, investments or sales, and cash flow return on assets, capital, equity, or sales); (xi) market share; (xii) improvements in capital structure; (xiii) expenses (expense management, expense ratio, expense efficiency ratios or other expense measures); (xiv) business expansion or consolidation (acquisitions and divestitures); (xv) internal rate of return or increase in net present value; (xvi) working capital targets relating to inventory and/or accounts receivable; (xvii) inventory management; (xviii) service or product delivery or quality; (xix) customer satisfaction; (xx) employee retention; (xxi) safety standards; (xxii) productivity measures; (xxiii) cost reduction measures; and/or (xxiv) strategic plan development and implementation.

Transferability

Each Award may be exercised during the Participant’s lifetime only by the Participant or, if permissible under applicable law, by the Participant’s guardian or legal representative and may not be otherwise transferred or encumbered by a Participant other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. The Committee, however, may permit Awards (other than Incentive Stock Options) to be transferred to family members, a trust for the benefit of such family members, a partnership or limited liability company whose partners or stockholders are the Participant and his or her family members or anyone else approved by it.

Amendment

The Plan will have a term of ten years. The Company’s board of directors may amend, suspend or terminate the Plan at any time; however, shareholder approval to amend the Plan may be necessary if the law or SEC so requires. No amendment, suspension or termination will materially and adversely affect the rights of any Participant or recipient of any Award without the consent of the Participant or recipient.

Change in Control

Except to the extent otherwise provided in an Award or required by applicable law, in the event of a Change in Control, upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, the Committee is authorized, but not obligated, to make any of the following adjustments (or any combination thereof) in the terms and conditions of outstanding Awards: (a) continuation or assumption of outstanding Awards by the surviving company; (b) substitution by the surviving company of equity, equity-based and/or cash awards with substantially the same terms for outstanding Awards; (c) accelerated exercisability, vesting and/or lapse of restrictions under outstanding Awards immediately prior to the occurrence of the Change in Control; (d) upon written notice, provide that any outstanding Awards must be exercised, to the extent then exercisable, during a reasonable period determined by the Committee and at the end of such period, any unexercised Awards will terminate; and I cancellation of all or any portion of outstanding Awards for fair value (in the form of cash, shares or other property) and which value may be zero.

U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences

The following is a general summary of the material U.S. federal income tax consequences of the grant and exercise and vesting of Awards under the Plan and the disposition of shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of such Awards. This summary is intended to reflect the current provisions of the Code and the regulations thereunder. However, this summary is not intended to be a complete statement of applicable law, nor does it address foreign, state, local and payroll tax considerations. Moreover, the U.S. federal income tax consequences to any particular participant may differ from those described herein by reason of, among other things, the particular circumstances of such participant.

Options

There are a number of requirements that must be met for a particular Option to be treated as an Incentive Stock Option. One such requirement is that Common Stock acquired through the exercise of an Incentive Stock Option cannot be disposed of before the later of (i) two years from the date of grant of the Option, or (ii) one year from the date of its exercise. Holders of Incentive Stock Options will generally incur no federal income tax liability at the time of grant or upon exercise of those Options. However, the spread at exercise will be an “item of tax preference,” which may give rise to “alternative minimum tax” liability for the taxable year in which the exercise occurs. If the holder does not dispose of the shares before the later of two years following the date of grant and one year following the date of exercise, the difference between the exercise price and the amount realized upon disposition of the shares will constitute long-term capital gain or loss, as the case may be. Assuming both holding periods are satisfied, no deduction will be allowed to the Company for federal income tax purposes in connection with the grant or exercise of the Incentive Stock Option. If, within two years following the date of grant or within one year following the date of exercise, the holder of shares acquired through the exercise of an Incentive Stock Option disposes of those shares, the Participant will generally realize taxable compensation at the time of such disposition equal to the difference between the exercise price and the lesser of the Fair Market Value of the share on the date of exercise or the amount realized on the subsequent disposition of the shares, and that amount will generally be deductible by the Company for federal income tax purposes, subject to the possible limitations on deductibility under Sections 280G and 162(m) of the Code for compensation paid to executives designated in those Sections. Finally, if an otherwise Incentive Stock Option becomes first exercisable in any one year for shares having an aggregate value in excess of $100,000 (based on the date of grant value), the portion of the Incentive Stock Option in respect of those excess shares will be treated as a non-qualified stock option for federal income tax purposes.

No income will be realized by a Participant upon grant of a Non-Qualified Stock Option. Upon the exercise of a Non-Qualified Stock Option, the Participant will recognize ordinary compensation income in an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the Fair Market Value of the underlying exercised shares over the Option exercise price paid at the time of exercise. Such income will be subject to income tax withholding, and the Participant will be required to pay to the Company the amount of any required withholding taxes in respect to such income.

The Company will be able to deduct this same amount for U.S. federal income tax purposes, but such deduction may be limited under Sections 280G and 162(m) of the Code for compensation paid to certain executives designated in those Sections.

Restricted Stock

A Participant will not be subject to tax upon the grant of an Award of Restricted Stock unless the Participant otherwise elects to be taxed at the time of grant pursuant to Section 83(b) of the Code. On the date an Award of Restricted Stock becomes transferable or is no longer subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture, the Participant will recognize ordinary compensation income equal to the difference between the Fair Market Value of the shares on that date over the amount the Participant paid for such shares, if any. Such income will be subject to income tax withholdings, and the Participant will be required to pay to the Company the amount of any required withholding taxes in respect to such income. If the Participant made an election under Section 83(b) of the Code, the Participant will recognize ordinary compensation income at the time of grant equal to the difference between the Fair Market Value of the shares on the date of grant over the amount the Participant paid for such shares, if any, and any subsequent appreciation in the value of the shares will be treated as a capital gain upon sale of the shares. Special rules apply to the receipt and disposition of Restricted Shares received by officers and directors who are subject to Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”). The Company will be able to deduct, at the same time as it is recognized by the Participant, the amount of taxable compensation to the participant for U.S. federal income tax purposes, but such deduction may be limited under Sections 280G and 162(m) of the Code for compensation paid to certain executives designated in those Sections.

Restricted Stock Units

A Participant will not be subject to tax upon the grant of a Restricted Stock Unit Award. Rather, upon the delivery of shares or cash pursuant to a Restricted Stock Unit Award, the Participant will recognize ordinary compensation income equal to the Fair Market Value of the number of shares (or the amount of cash) the Participant actually receives with respect to the Award. Such income will be subject to income tax withholdings, and the Participant will be required to pay to the Company the amount of any required withholding taxes in respect to such income. The Company will be able to deduct the amount of taxable compensation recognized by the Participant for U.S. federal income tax purposes, but the deduction may be limited under Sections 280G and 162(m) of the Code for compensation paid to certain executives designated in those Sections.

SARs

No income will be realized by a Participant upon grant of an SAR. Upon the exercise of an SAR, the Participant will recognize ordinary compensation income in an amount equal to the Fair Market Value of the payment received in respect of the SAR. Such income will be subject to income tax withholdings, and the Participant will be required to pay to the Company the amount of any required withholding taxes in respect to such income. The Company will be able to deduct this same amount for U.S. federal income tax purposes, but such deduction may be limited under Sections 280G and 162(m) of the Code for compensation paid to certain executives designated in those Sections.

Stock Bonus Awards

A Participant will recognize ordinary compensation income equal to the difference between the Fair Market Value of the shares on the date the shares of common stock subject to the Award are transferred to the Participant over the amount the Participant paid for such shares, if any, and any subsequent appreciation in the value of the shares will be treated as a capital gain upon sale of the shares. The Company will be able to deduct, at the same time as it is recognized by the Participant, the amount of taxable compensation to the Participant for U.S. federal income tax purposes, but such deduction may be limited under Sections 280G and 162(m) of the Code for compensation paid to certain executives designated in those Sections.

Section 162(m)

In general, Section 162(m) of the Code denies a publicly held corporation a deduction for U.S. federal income tax purposes for compensation in excess of $1,000,000 per year paid to any “covered employee.” Covered employees include any individual who served as chief executive officer or chief financial officer during the taxable year, in addition to the three most highly compensated individuals aside from the chief executive officer and chief financial officer. Additionally, covered employees include any previously covered employee for any taxable year beginning after December 31, 2016. The Plan is intended to satisfy an exception with respect to grants of Options to covered employees. In addition, the Plan was designed to permit certain Awards of Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units, cash bonus awards and other Awards to be awarded as performance compensation awards intended to qualify under the “performance-based compensation” exception to Section 162(m) of the Code.

On December 22, 2017, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“TCJA”) was signed into law. The TCJA repealed the performance-based compensation exception to the Section 162(m) $1 million limitation on compensation to covered employees of publicly held corporations. This change was effective for tax years beginning after December 31, 2017. As a result of this change, any expense recognized upon exercise of stock options will be subject to the $1 million limitation under Section 162(m), even if based on performance.

New Plan Benefits

Future grants under the Plan will be made at the discretion of the Committee and, accordingly, are not yet determinable. In addition, the value of the Awards granted under the Plan will depend on a number of factors, including the Fair Market Value of the shares of common stock on future dates, the exercise decisions made by the Participants and/or the extent to which any applicable performance goals necessary for vesting or payment are achieved. Consequently, it is not possible to determine the benefits that might be received by Participants receiving discretionary grants under, or having their annual bonus paid pursuant to, the Plan.

Interests of Directors or Officers

The Company’s directors may grant Awards under the Plan to themselves as well as to the Company’s officers and other employees, consultants and advisors.

Additionally, while our Board of Directors has not granted any performance base stock options to date, the Board of Directors reserves the right to grant such options in the future, if the Board in its sole determination believes such grants would be in the best interests of the Company.

Incentive Bonus

The Board of Directors may grant incentive bonuses to our executive officers and/or future executive officers in its sole discretion, if the Board of Directors believes such bonuses are in the Company’s best interest, after analyzing our current business objectives and growth, if any, and the amount of revenue we are able to generate each month, which revenue is a direct result of the actions and ability of such executives.

Long-Term, Stock-Based Compensation
