Introductory Note

*Background*

RYVYL Inc. ("Ryvyl") and RTB Digital, Inc. ("RTB") entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated September 28, 2025, as amended (the "Merger Agreement"), pursuant to which a wholly-owned subsidiary of Ryvyl merged with and into RTB, with RTB surviving as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Ryvyl (the "merger").

On April 1, 2026, the stockholders of Ryvyl approved the Merger Agreement and the related transactions, and on May 11, 2026, The Nasdaq Stock Market approved the listing of the common stock of the post-merger company on the Capital Market. These two conditions were the primary conditions precedent to the consummation of the merger transaction.

On May 11, 2026, Ryvyl filed a certificate of amendment to its certificate of incorporation to change the corporate name of "Ryvyl Inc." to "RTB Digital, Inc." On May 13, 2026, the trading symbol of the common stock was changed to "RTB."

The merger will result in a company focused on deploying its Web3 media platform for major media brands and premium clients, generating Web3 revenue and reaching millions of monthly media consumers through partnerships with Yahoo, TheStreet and nearly two hundred sports reporters, including the majority of Sports Illustrated's top revenue producing and highest audience team channels, as well as the world's #1 hockey network - also departing SI - all of which recently migrated to the RTB platform.

*Consummation of the Merger*

On May 12, 2026 (the "Closing Date"), as contemplated by the Merger Agreement, following the satisfaction of the closing conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, the Company completed its business combination with RTB (the "Merger"). Accordingly, the Company issued an aggregate of 4,384,504 shares of the Company's common stock, $0.001 par value (the "Common Stock") to the former shareholders of RTB. The shares of Common Stock issued to the former shareholders of RTB were registered with the SEC pursuant to the Registration Statement on Form S-4 (Reg. No. 333-264959), as amended, declared effective on February 6, 2026.

Also upon consummation of the Merger, (i) stock options and other employee awards that were not exercised for shares of common stock of RTB before the Merger, (ii) warrants that were not converted into shares of common stock of RTB before the Merger, and (iii) outstanding debt that may be converted into shares of common stock of RTB were assumed and adjusted to be exercised or converted at the exchange ratio set forth in the Merger Agreement. Of the foregoing, the post merger company has reserved 3,385,409 shares of common stock for the options and employee awards that may be exercised, 2,070,520 shares of common stock for the warrants that may be exercised and 7,688,755 shares of common stock that may be issued on conversion of the outstanding debt and interest due thereon. The conversion of the outstanding debt and interest will take place as promptly as possible after the consummation of the Merger, subject to the terms of the governing instruments.

Certain of the security holders of RTB prior to the Merger have agreed to lock up the common stock of the post merger company for a period of 12 months, with a dribble out thereafter for an additional nine months. The persons participating in the lock-up generally include the insiders and larger shareholders. The lock up agreements are in addition to any applicable securities law restrictions under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

Immediately after the consummation of the Merger, there were approximately 5,774,711 shares of Common Stock outstanding.

The Company assumed certain securities of the pre-merger RTB Digital, Inc., including options, warrants and convertible debt and interest due thereon.

The Company has agreed to issue not less than an aggregate of 7,688,755 shares upon conversion of certain of the outstanding convertible debt and interest due thereon, as of the date hereof that matures in the future. Each of the holders of the convertible debt and interest is anticipated to be an accredited investor at the date of conversion, and the conversion and issuance of shares of common stock will be issued pursuant to an exemption from registration pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, pursuant to Section 4 thereof. None of the shares have registration rights.

The Company has agreed to issue not less than an aggregate of 2,070,520 shares upon exercised of the assumed warrants. Each of the holders of the warrants is either an accredited investor or sophisticated investor, and the exercise and issuance of shares of common stock will be issued pursuant to an exemption from registration pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, pursuant to Section 4 thereof. None of the shares have registration rights and each of the convertible debt holders have agreed to lock up the shares of common stock received on conversion for a period of 12 months.

The Company has agreed to issue not less than an aggregate of 3,385,409 shares upon exercise of the assumed options and other equity awards. The Company plans to register the shares underlying the associated equity award plan for issuance of the shares of common stock. If any of the options or equity awards are exercised before the registration of the common stock, then they will be issued on a private placement basis, pursuant to an exemption from registration pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, pursuant to Section 4 thereof.
