**PROPOSAL NO. 1**

**ELECTION OF DIRECTORS**

The Company's Bylaws established a tiered Board of Directors in 2020 which resulted in three tiers of directors, with each tier of directors serving three-year terms that end in successive years. The Company currently has seven directors. Tier I currently consists of two directors who were elected at the 2024 Annual Meeting to serve until the 2027 annual meeting of stockholders of the Company or until their successors are duly elected and qualified. Tier II currently consists of two directors who were elected at the 2025 Annual Meeting to serve until the 2028 annual meeting of stockholders of the Company or until their successors are duly elected and qualified. Tier III currently consists of three directors who are to be elected at the 2026 Annual Meeting to hold office until the 2029 annual meeting of stockholders of the Company or until their successors are duly elected and qualified.

Unless otherwise instructed, the proxy holders named in the enclosed proxy will vote the proxies received by them for the three nominees of the Board of Directors named below.

Each nominee of the Board of Directors has indicated that he is willing and able to serve as director if elected. If any nominee of the Board of Directors becomes unavailable for any reason before the election, proxies will be voted for the election of such substitute nominee or nominees, if any, as shall be designated by the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors has no reason to believe that any of the nominees will be unavailable to serve.

**Vote Required**

The three nominees who receive the highest number of affirmative votes of the shares present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote, a quorum being present, shall be elected as directors. Only votes cast "FOR" a nominee will be counted, except that the accompanying proxy will be voted "FOR" all nominees in the absence of instructions to the contrary. Broker non-votes and proxies marked "withheld" as to one or more nominees will have no effect on the election since only votes "FOR" a nominee are counted in order to determine the three nominees with the highest number of votes.

The directors being nominated for election to the Board of Directors (each, a "Nominee") at the 2026 Annual Meeting and the directors who will continue to serve on the Board of Directors until the 2027 and 2028 annual meeting, their positions and offices held with the Company and certain biographical information are set forth below.

**Director Independence**

The Board of Directors discussed and reviewed whether each nominee is independent within the Company's corporate governance guidelines which are consistent with the director independence standards established by The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC.

The Board reviews business, professional, charitable and familial relationships of the directors in determining independence. Under such definition, the board of directors has determined that Carl Hoechner, Mark Kutner, MD, James Wall, Chris Perrucci, and Scott Howell, MD, are independent directors.

**EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION**

**Overview and Objectives**

We believe our success depends on the continued contributions of our named executive officers. We have established our executive compensation program to attract, motivate, and retain our key employees in order to enable us to maximize our profitability and value over the long term. Our policies are also intended to support the achievement of our strategic objectives by aligning the interests of our executive officers with those of our shareholders through equity-based compensation. We expect that our compensation program will continue to be focused on building long-term shareholder value by attracting, motivating and retaining talented, experienced executives and other key employees. Currently, our Compensation Committee oversees the compensation programs for our executive officers.

**Elements of Compensation**

Historically, we have compensated our named executive officers with annual base salaries, annual cash bonuses, and employee benefits. Additionally, our named executive officers may be awarded equity incentives in the form of stock purchase warrants and stock purchase options. We expect that these elements will continue to constitute the primary elements of our compensation program, although the relative proportions of each element, and the specific plan and award designs, will likely evolve as we become a more established public company.

***Base Salary***

Base salary is the fixed annual compensation we pay to each of our named executive officers for carrying out their specific job responsibilities. Base salaries are a major component of the total annual cash compensation paid to our named executive officers. Base salaries are determined after taking into account many factors, including (a) the responsibilities of the officer, the level of experience and expertise required for the position and the strategic impact of the position; (b) the need to recognize each officer's unique value and demonstrated individual contribution, as well as future contributions; (c) the performance of the company and each officer; and (d) salaries paid for comparable positions in similarly-situated companies.

For the amounts of base salary that our named executive officers received in 2025 and 2024, see the Summary Compensation Table contained in this Proxy Statement.

Our Compensation Committee reviews the base salaries for each named executive officer periodically as well as at the time of any promotion or significant change in job responsibilities and, in connection with each review, considers individual and company performance over the course of the relevant time period. The Board may make adjustments to base salaries for named executive officers upon consideration of any factors that it deems relevant, including but not limited to: (a) any increase or decrease in the named executive officer's responsibilities, (b) the named executive officer's job performance, and (c) the level of compensation paid to senior executives of other companies with whom we compete for executive talent, as estimated based on publicly available information and the experience of our directors.

**Annual Cash Bonuses**

Annual cash bonuses are determined at the discretion of our Board. At this time, there is a defined bonus plan for the CEO and CFO. For the fiscal years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, all of our named executive officers were awarded cash bonuses as set forth in the Summary Compensation Table contained in this Proxy Statement.

**Other Benefits**

We offer participation in broad-based retirement, health and welfare plans to all of our employees.

**Risk Considerations**

The Compensation Committee considers whether the Company's compensation policies and practices for both executives and other employees encourage unnecessary or excessive risk taking.

Base salaries are not believed to encourage excessive risk taking. The Company's bonus compensation and equity compensation practices do not focus on achievement of annual Company and/or individual performance goals and are not believed to encourage unnecessary or excess risk taking.

**Pension Benefits**

We have not maintained and do not currently maintain a defined benefit pension plan or a supplemental executive retirement plan. Instead, our employees, including our named executive officers, may participate in a retirement plan intended to provide benefits under section 401(k) of the Code (the "401(k) Plan") pursuant to which employees are allowed to contribute a portion of their base compensation to a tax-qualified retirement account in a defined safe harbor 401(k) Plan, subject to limitations.

**Non-Qualified Defined Contribution and Other Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation Plans**

We have not had and do not currently have any defined contribution or other plan that provides for the deferral of compensation on a basis that is not tax-qualified.

**2019 Equity Incentive Plan**

On December 17, 2019, the Board of Directors of the Company adopted the 2019 Equity Incentive Plan (the "2019 Plan"). The 2019 Plan provides for the award of Incentive or Non-Statutory Stock Options, Stock Purchase Rights, Stock Awards and Unrestricted Stock. Awards may be granted under the 2019 Plan to employees, directors and consultants of the Company and our parents and subsidiaries. A maximum of 300,000 shares of common stock is available for issuance under the 2019 Plan. As of April 13, 2026, 79,118 shares are available for awards under the 2019 Plan.

**Employment Agreements with Named Executive Officers** 

In March 2025 we entered into amended and restated employment agreements with William Koppelmann, our Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer and Brian Krogol, our Chief Financial Officer that sets forth the terms and conditions of these executive's employment with us. The employment agreements have five (5) year terms and automatically extend for an additional year at the expiration of the original five year term and each extension term unless the Company notifies the executive that the agreement will not be extended. The agreements entitle the executives to annual base salaries and eligibility to earn cash bonuses under our annual cash incentive programs. As a condition to their employment, our named executive officers entered into non-competition, non-solicitation agreements, non-disparagement and proprietary information and inventions assignment agreements.

**<u>William Koppelmann</u>**

The Amended and Restated Employment Agreement provides for the following compensation:

(a) Base salary at the rate of $280,000 per year.

(b) An annual bonus pursuant to a Performance Based Cash Award Agreement with a target annual bonus of 100% of base salary based on the geographical diversification and size of the Company's loan portfolio (up to 30% of the target annual bonus), the pro forma annual revenues of mergers and acquisitions transactions (up to 40% of the target bonus), and the listing of the Company's common stock on the Nasdaq Stock Market (up to 30% of the target bonus).

(c) A one-time grant of 25,000 performance based restricted stock units (RSU) under the Company's Equity Incentive Plan. Each RSU converts to one share of common stock upon vesting. Vesting of the RSUs is subject to the pro forma annual revenues of mergers and acquisitions transactions (up to 70% of the target bonus) and the listing of the Company's common stock on the Nasdaq Stock Market (up to 30% of the target bonus).

(d) A grant of 5,000 RSUs which will vest and convert to one share of common stock at the rate of 1,000 per year based on Mr. Koppelmann's continued employment with the Company through December 31 of 2025 through 2029. If Mr. Koppelmann's employment is terminated by the Company without cause or after a change of control of the Company or should Mr. Koppelmann terminate his employment for good reason any unvested RSUs will thereupon vest. If Mr. Koppelmann's employment is terminated for cause or by Mr. Koppelmann without good reason the unvested RSUs will expire.

Mr. Koppelmann shall also be entitled to participate in all benefits available to the Company's senior executive officers.

**<u>Brian Krogol</u>**

The Amended and Restated Employment Agreement provides for the following compensation:

(a) Base salary at the rate of $180,000 per year.

(b) An annual bonus pursuant to a Performance Based Cash Award Agreement with a target annual bonus of 100% of base salary based on the geographical diversification and size of the Company's loan portfolio (up to 30% of the target annual bonus), the pro forma annual revenues of mergers and acquisitions transactions (up to 40% of the target bonus), and the listing of the Company's common stock on the Nasdaq Stock Market (up to 30% of the target bonus).

(c) A one-time grant of 12,500 performance based restricted stock units (RSU) under the Company's Equity Incentive Plan. Each RSU converts to one share of common stock upon vesting. Vesting of the RSUs is subject to the pro forma annual revenues of mergers and acquisitions transactions (up to 70% of the target bonus) and the listing of the Company's common stock on the Nasdaq Stock Market (up to 30% of the target bonus).

(d) A grant of 5,000 RSUs which will vest and convert to one share of common stock at the rate of 1,000 per year based on Mr. Krogol continued employment with the Company through December 31 of 2025 through 2029. If Mr. Krogol's employment is terminated by the Company without cause or after a change of control of the Company or should Mr. Krogol terminate his employment for good reason any unvested RSUs will thereupon vest. If Mr. Krogol's employment is terminated for cause or by Mr. Krogol without good reason the unvested RSUs will expire.

Mr. Krogol shall also be entitled to participate in all benefits available to the Company's senior executive officers.

The above summary of the amended and restated employment agreements and related agreements is not complete and is qualified by reference to the terms of the agreements, copies of which are filed as exhibits to the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K filed on April 2, 2025 and the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on March 20, 2026.

With the approval of the Board of Directors, on March 1, 2020 the Company has entered into written employment agreements with our Vice President of Marketing, Victor Galliano, and Vice President of Sales, Robert Mattucci. These employment agreements are "at will" and do not provide for a specified term of employment. These employment agreements protect the Company's interests following termination of employment by prohibiting the executives from disclosing or utilizing the Company's confidential information, as defined in the agreements, and return of all Company documents.

**Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control**

The employment agreements with Mr. Koppelmann and Mr. Krogol provide that they are entitled to receive a severance benefit equal to one (1) times their base salary and 18 months of COBRA insurance coverage in the event that their employment was terminated by the Company either without "Cause" or by them for "Good Reason." We also provide additional executive severance benefits in the event of a "Change in Control." In the event either Mr. Koppelmann or Mr. Krogol were to be terminated on or within 18 months of a "Change in Control" either without "Cause" or by him for "Good Reason," Mr. Koppelmann and Mr. Krogol would be entitled to receive a severance benefit equal to two (2) times their base salary and target annual bonus amount, 18 months of COBRA insurance coverage and prorated target annual bonus for the year of termination. The named executive officers would also be entitled to immediate vesting of all unvested equity or equity-based awards that vest solely based on the passage of time, with any awards that vest based on the attainment of performance-vesting conditions being governed by the terms of the applicable performance-based award agreement.

**Termination After Non-renewal of Employment Agreement**

Termination of the employment of Mr. Koppelmann or Mr. Krogol without renewal within thirty (30) days after the end of the then current term of their employment agreements shall be considered a termination by the Company without Cause which occurred prior to the end of the then current term and entitle the terminated executive to termination payments due for a termination without cause having occurred prior to the end of the term for purposes thereof.

The following table shows the potential payments and benefits that would be received by each of our named executive officers who were entitled to receive such payments and benefits due to termination by the Company without Cause or by the named executive officer for Good Reason or termination after non-renewal of employment agreement. The amounts reported have been calculated based on the assumption that the employment termination took place on December 31, 2025.

**PROPOSAL NO. 2** 

**ADVISORY VOTE TO APPROVE EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION** 

The Board of Directors is providing the Company's stockholders the opportunity to cast an advisory vote to approve the compensation of the Company's named executive officers as disclosed in this Proxy Statement pursuant to the compensation disclosure rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, which disclosure includes the compensation discussion and analysis, the compensation tables and the related disclosures concerning executive compensation.

The primary objectives of our executive compensation program are to:

• enable the Company to recruit, retain and motivate skilled and knowledgeable executives;

• ensure that executive compensation is aligned with our corporate strategies and business objectives;

• promote the achievement of key strategic and financial performance measures by linking incentive compensation to the achievement of measurable corporate and individual performance goals; and

• align executives' incentives with the creation of stockholder value.

The Board of Directors believes that the achievement of these objectives is important to the Company's long-term success and requests stockholder approval the compensation of our named executive officers as disclosed in this Proxy Statement by adopting the following resolution at the Annual Meeting:

**"RESOLVED, that the compensation of the Company's named executive officers, as disclosed in the definitive Proxy Statement for this meeting, is hereby approved."**

While the Board of Directors intends to carefully consider the stockholder vote on the proposal, the final vote will not be binding on the Board and is advisory in nature.

**Vote Required** 

The affirmative vote of a majority of the voting shares of voting stock present at the Annual Meeting and voting on the proposal as a single class is required to approve the compensation of the named executive officers as disclosed in this Proxy Statement. Abstentions and broker non-votes have no effect on the vote on the proposal.

**THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE FOR APPROVAL OF THE COMPENSATION OF OUR NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS AS DISCLOSED IN THIS PROXY STATEMENT. PROXIES WILL BE VOTED "FOR" APPROVAL OF THE PROPOSAL UNLESS OTHERWISE SPECIFIED.** 

**PROPOSAL NO. 3**

**FREQUENCY OF ADVISORY VOTE TO APPROVE EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION** 

This proposal provides the Company's stockholders the opportunity to inform the Board as to how often they wish the Company to include a proposal, similar to Proposal No. 3 in this Proxy Statement, to approve the Company's executive compensation program. The Board of Directors believes that an advisory vote on the approval of executive compensation should take place **every three years.** The Board believes that such frequency is sufficient to keep it advised of the stockholders' opinion of the Company's executive compensation program. The Board will consider the results of the voting on this proposal in determining the frequency of the advisory vote on executive compensation but the vote is not binding on the Board and is advisory in nature.

The proxy allows the stockholders to vote on the frequency of the advisory vote on executive compensation:

• Three years;

• Two years; or

• One year.

**THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE TO HOLD AN ADVISORY VOTE ON THE APPROVAL OF EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION EVERY THREE YEARS. PROXIES WILL BE VOTED FOR A "THREE YEAR" FREQUENCY ON THE PROPOSAL UNLESS OTHERWISE SPECIFIED.** 

**PROPOSAL NO. 4**

**TO AUTHORIZE THE AMENDMENT OF THE ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION TO REMOVE A PROVISION WHICH REQUIRES THAT THE COMPANY HAVE 11 MEMBERS ON THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS** 

On January 8, 2020 the Company amended Article 9 of its Articles of Incorporation to require that the Company have 11 members on its Board of Directors. The Board of Directors believes it is appropriate for the Board of Directors to have flexibility in the number of directors and passed a By-law to have a minimum of five (5) directors and a maximum of fifteen (15) directors. The Board currently has seven (7) directors. The Amendment would not have any impact on the composition or function of the Board of Directors. The Board believes that seven (7) directors are currently sufficient for the Board to perform its duties.

Stockholders will not be entitled to rights of appraisal in connection with the proposed Amendment.

**Vote required**

The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting rights outstanding and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting is required to approve the Amendment. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have the effect of a vote against the proposal.

**THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE "FOR" APPROVAL OF THE AMENDMENT OF THE ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION TO REMOVE A PROVISION IN ARTICLE 9 OF THE ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION WHICH REQUIRES THAT THE COMPANY HAVE 11 MEMBERS ON THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS.** 

**STOCKHOLDER PROPOSALS FOR NEXT ANNUAL MEETING**

The Company anticipates that it will hold its 2027 Annual Meeting of Stockholders on or about June 11, 2027. Any stockholder of record desiring to submit a proposal for action at the 2027 Annual Meeting of Stockholders and who wishes such proposal to appear in the Company's Proxy Statement with respect to such meeting should arrange for such proposal to be delivered to the Company's Corporate Secretary at 13590 SW 134<sup>th</sup> Avenue, Suite 215, Miami, FL 33186 no later than December 7, 2026 in order to be considered for inclusion in the Company's proxy statement relating to that meeting.
