Purchasers tendered, at the election of each Purchaser, U.S. dollars or INJ tokens to the Company as consideration for the Subscription Receipts (the aggregate amount paid in such INJ and United States Dollars, the “Subscription Amount”).

The Company raised proceeds of approximately $100 million in the Private Placement in order to adopt a digital asset treasury strategy under which the principal holding will be INJ, the native digital asset of the Injective blockchain (the “Treasury Strategy”).

The Subscription Receipts are governed by the terms of that certain subscription receipt agreement, dated September 4, 2025 (the “Subscription Receipt Agreement”), by and among the Company, Odyssey Transfer and Trust Company (the “Subscription Receipt Agent”) and D. Boral Capital LLC, the exclusive placement agent to the Company (the “Placement Agent”) entered into in connection with the closing of the Private Placement. Each Subscription Receipt is exchangeable for one common share, no par value of the Company (the “Common Share”) upon meeting certain Escrow Release Conditions (as defined below).

The issuance of the Common Shares to the holders of Subscription Receipts is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain escrow release conditions as set forth below (the “Escrow Release Conditions”):

a) the receipt of the Shareholder Approval (as defined below) by the Company; b) the Registration Statement (as defined below) being declared effective by the Commission within sixty (60) days from the closing date of the Securities Purchase Agreement, subject to one or more extensions pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Escrow Deadline”); c) the receipt of required approvals by the applicable stock exchange, third parties, court and regulatory approvals required by the Company; d) the approval of the Common Shares for listing on NYSE American and the completion, satisfaction or waiver by NYSE American of all conditions precedent to such listing; e) the Company shall not be in breach or default of any of its covenants or obligations under the Subscription Receipt Agreement or the agency agreement between the Company and the Placement Agent; f) from the date of the Securities Purchase Agreement until the earlier of (i) the Escrow Deadline, or (ii) such date on which all of conditions listed as items (a) through (f) above have been satisfied or waived, trading in the common shares shall not have been suspended by the Commission or the Company’s principal trading market, and trading in securities generally as reported by Bloomberg L.P. shall not have been suspended or limited, and minimum prices shall not have been established on securities whose trades are reported by such service or any trading market; and g) the Company and the Placement Agent, in compliance with the Side Letter (as defined below), shall have delivered a certain escrow release notice to the Subscription Receipt Agent in accordance with the Securities Purchase Agreement, confirming that items (a) through (g), above, inclusive, have been satisfied or waived.

Pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company shall call a meeting of its shareholders to approve (i) the issuance of the Common Shares to be delivered to the holders of Subscription Receipts, and (ii) the amendment to the constating documents of the Company to remove the restriction on transfers of the Common Shares contained in the Articles of Continuance of the Company (the “Shareholder Approval”). The Company shall, within 30 days following execution of the Securities Purchase Agreement, prepare and file a preliminary proxy statement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) relating to the shareholders’ consideration and vote with respect to the Shareholder Approval.

Within five (5) business days of receiving Shareholder Approval, the Company shall file a registration statement on Form S-1 (the “Registration Statement”) with the Commission to permit the resale of the Common Shares. Pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, and subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the other Escrow Release Conditions described therein, the Common Shares will not be issued until Shareholder Approval is received and the Registration Statement has been declared effective.

The issuance of the Common Shares has not been registered under the Securities Act, and such securities may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an exemption from registration under the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws.

Common Stock Purchase Agreement

On September 4, 2025, the Company entered into a Common Stock Purchase Agreement (the “ELOC Purchase Agreement”) with White Lion Capital, LLC (“White Lion”), whereby the Company has the right, but not the obligation, to sell to White Lion, and White Lion is obligated to purchase, up to an aggregate of $250,000,000 (the “Commitment Amount”) Common Shares.

The Company does not have a right to commence any sales of Common Shares to the Purchaser under the ELOC Purchase Agreement until all conditions to the Company’s right to commence sales, as set forth in the ELOC Purchase Agreement, have been satisfied, including that a registration statement covering the resale of such shares is declared effective by the SEC. The Company will control the timing and amount of any sales of Common Shares to White Lion during the period beginning with the effectiveness of such registration statement and ending on the earlier of (i) the date on which White Lion shall have purchased Common Shares pursuant to the ELOC Purchase Agreement for an aggregate purchase price equal to the Commitment Amount or (ii) twenty four (24) months following the Effective date of the ELOC Purchase Agreement (the “Commitment Period”), subject to the conditions of the ELOC Purchase Agreement. Actual sales of Common Shares to White Lion under the ELOC Purchase Agreement will depend on a variety of factors to be determined by the Company from time to time, including, among others, market conditions, the Beneficial Owner Limitation (as defined below) of White Lion, and other determinations made by the Company as to appropriate levels and sources of funding.

The purchase price of the Common Shares that the Company elects to sell to White Lion pursuant to the ELOC Purchase Agreement will be determined based on the type of Purchase Notice issued, as follows:

● Rapid Purchase Price Option 1: The lowest traded price of the Common Shares on the notice date.

● Rapid Purchase Option 2: ninety nine percent (99%) multiplied by the lowest traded price of the Common Stock two hours following the written confirmation of the acceptance of the Rapid Purchase Notice by White Lion.

● Regular Purchase Price: (i) ninety-seven percent (97%) multiplied by the lowest daily VWAP of the Common Shares during the Regular Purchase Valuation Period if the Purchase Notice was delivered prior to $20,000,000 in Investment Amount and (ii) ninety-seven and a half percent (97.5 %) multiplied by the lowest daily VWAP of the Common Shares during the Regular Purchase Valuation Period if the Purchase Notice was delivered following $20,000,000 in Investment Amount.

The ELOC Purchase Agreement prohibits the Company from directing White Lion to purchase any Common Shares if those shares, when aggregated with all other Common Shares then beneficially owned by White Lion (as calculated pursuant to Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended), would result in White Lion beneficially owning more than 4.99% of the outstanding Common Shares (the “Beneficial Ownership Limitation”), which may be increased to 9.99% at White Lion’s discretion upon 61 days’ prior written notice.

In consideration for White Lion’s execution and delivery of, and agreement to perform under the ELOC Purchase Agreement, the Company shall send to White Lion a number of Injective Tokens (INJ) equal to $1,500,000 divided by the lowest trade price of the token seen on Coinbase three (3) hours prior to delivery of the token (the “Commitment Fee”). The Company shall deliver the tokens within 24 hours of signing the binding term sheet dated on September 1, 2025 to a designated address provided by White Lion. The Company shall timely deliver all Commitment Fee owed, failure to timely do so will result in liquidated damages of $1,500,000, being immediately due and payable to White Lion at its election in the form of cash payment.

Concurrently with the ELOC Purchase Agreement, the Company and White Lion entered into the Registration Rights Agreement.

This Current Report shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy, nor shall such securities be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements, and certificates evidencing such shares, if any, will contain a legend stating the same.

Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.

The disclosure required by this Item is included in Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference. Based in part upon the representations of the Purchasers in the Securities Purchase Agreement, the offering and sale of the Common Shares, the Meteora Warrants, and the Meteora Warrant Shares, were exempt from registration under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

In connection with the Private Placement, the Company has also agreed to issue warrants to Meteora Capital, LLC, a consultant of the Company (the “Meteora Warrants”) equal to 4.0% of the total shares outstanding on a pro forma basis after giving effect to the transactions contemplated by the Securities Purchase Agreement, exerciseable into 1,045,654 Common Shares.
