Material Changes and Strategic Actions

- Reverse Share Split: An Extraordinary General Meeting (EGM) is scheduled for July 24, 2026, to authorize a reverse share split of Class A ordinary shares.

Outlook, Risks, and Management Commentary
Management's primary focus is on regulatory compliance and financial viability. The Company intends to seek shareholder approval to exceed the 19.99% conversion cap if necessary. However, the Deed includes a "Financial Viability Exception" allowing the Company to rely on Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(f) if delays in obtaining shareholder approval would seriously jeopardize the Company's financial viability.
Key risks and contingencies include:
- Failure to regain Nasdaq compliance, potentially leading to delisting.
- Dependence on shareholder approval for the reverse split and potential conversion cap adjustments.
- Execution risk regarding the assignment of the CalBank deposit and the settlement of GSR liabilities.
