#### SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS AND INDUSTRY DATA
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this "Quarterly Report") contains forward-looking statements which reflect our current views with respect to, among other things, our operations and financial performance. Such statements are based upon our current plans, estimates and expectations that are subject to various risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from such statements. The inclusion of forward-looking statements should not be regarded as a representation that such plans, estimates and expectations will be achieved. Words such as "anticipate," "expect," "project," "intend," "believe," "may," "will," "should," "plan," "could," "continue," "target," "contemplate," "estimate," "forecast," "guidance," "predict," "possible," "potential," "pursue," "likely," and words and terms of similar substance used in connection with any discussion of future plans, actions or events identify forward-looking statements. All statements, other than historical facts, including statements regarding our future product development plans; the potential, safety, efficacy, and regulatory and clinical progress of our product candidates, including the anticipated timing for potential regulatory submissions, approvals and timing thereof; and any assumptions underlying any of the foregoing, are forward-looking statements. In addition, forward-looking statements address various matters including statements relating to the assets to be held by the Company, the expected future market, price and liquidity of the digital assets the Company acquires, the macro and political conditions surrounding digital assets, the Company's plan for value creation and strategic advantages, market size and growth opportunities, regulatory conditions, competitive position and the interest of other corporations in similar business strategies, technological and market trends, and future financial condition and performance. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from our plans, estimates or expectations could include, but are not limited to: (i) our ability and plan to develop and commercialize sirexatamab (DKN-01) and our other programs; (ii) status, timing and results of our preclinical studies and clinical trials; (iii) the potential benefits of sirexatamab and our other programs; (iv) the timing of our development programs and seeking regulatory approval of sirexatamab and our other programs; (v) our ability to obtain and maintain regulatory approval; (vi) our estimates of expenses and future revenues and profitability; (vii) our estimates regarding our capital requirements and our needs for additional financing; (viii) our estimates of the size of the potential markets for sirexatamab and our other programs; (ix) the benefits to be derived from any collaborations, license agreements, or other acquisition efforts; (x) sources of revenues and anticipated revenues, including contributions from any collaborations or license agreements for the development and commercialization of products; (xi) the rate and degree of market acceptance of sirexatamab or our other products; (xii) the success of other competing therapies that may become available; (xiii) the manufacturing capacity for our products; (xiv) our intellectual property position; and (xv) our ability to maintain and protect our intellectual property rights. Additional risks and uncertainties include, among others, the risk that the Company will fail to realize the anticipated benefits of the digital asset treasury strategy; changes in business, market, financial, political and regulatory conditions; risks relating to the Company's operations and business, including the highly volatile nature of the price of digital assets; the risk that the price of the Company's Common Stock may be highly correlated to the price of the digital assets that it holds; risks related to increased competition in the industries in which the Company does and will operate; risks relating to significant legal, commercial, regulatory and technical uncertainty regarding digital assets generally; risks relating to the treatment of crypto assets for U.S. and foreign tax purposes; and our ability to comply with the continued listing requirements of the Nasdaq Capital Market ("Nasdaq").

By their nature, forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties because they relate to events, competitive dynamics and industry change, and depend on economic circumstances that may or may not occur in the future or may occur on longer or shorter timelines than anticipated. Although we believe that we have a reasonable basis for each forward-looking statement contained in this Quarterly Report, we caution you that forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and that our actual results of operations, financial condition and liquidity, and the development of the industry in which we operate may differ materially from the forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report. In addition, even if our results of operations, financial condition and liquidity, and events in the industry in which we operate are consistent with the forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report, they may not be predictive of results or developments in future periods. You should carefully and completely read this Quarterly Report and any documents that we have filed as exhibits to this Quarterly Report.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

You should refer to Part II, Item 1A, Risk Factors in this Quarterly Report and Part I, Item 1A, Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 26, 2025, for a discussion of important factors that may cause our actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by our forward-looking statements. As a result of these factors, we cannot assure you that the forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report will prove to be accurate. Furthermore, if our forward-looking statements prove to be inaccurate, the inaccuracy may be material. In light of the significant uncertainties in these forward-looking statements, you should not regard any such statement as a representation or warranty by us or any other person that we will achieve our objectives and plans in any specified timeframe, or at all. Any forward-looking statement that we make in this Quarterly Report speaks only as of the date of such statement, and, except to the extent required by applicable law, we undertake no obligation to update such statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this Quarterly Report or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. You should, therefore, not rely on these forward-looking statements as representing our views as of any date subsequent to the date of this Quarterly Report. Comparisons of results for current and any prior periods are not intended to express any future trends or indications of future performance, unless expressed as such, and should only be viewed as historical data.

Sirexatamab (DKN-01) is an investigational drug undergoing clinical development and has not been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (the "FDA"), nor has it been submitted to the FDA for approval. Sirexatamab has not been, and may never be, approved by any regulatory agency or marketed anywhere in the world. Statements contained in this Quarterly Report should not be deemed to be promotional.

#### INTRODUCTORY COMMENT
***References to Cypherpunk and Leap***

On November 12, 2025, we filed a Charter Amendment with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware changing the Company's name from "Leap Therapeutics, Inc." to "Cypherpunk Technologies Inc.". In connection with the name change, the Company has formed a new wholly-owned subsidiary, to be named "Leap Therapeutics, Inc.", which will conduct the biotechnology operations of the Company. Throughout this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the "Company," "Cypherpunk", "Cypherpunk Technologies", "Leap," "Leap Therapeutics," "we," "us," and "our," except where the context requires otherwise, refer to Cypherpunk Technologies Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries, and, except where the context requires otherwise, "Board of Directors" refers to the board of directors of Cypherpunk Technologies Inc. as of the date of filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

#### Cypherpunk Technologies Inc.
**NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**

**(In thousands, except share and per share amounts)**

**(Unaudited)**

1. Nature of Business, Basis of Presentation and Liquidity

*Nature of Business*

Cypherpunk Technologies Inc. (formerly known as Leap Therapeutics, Inc.) ("the Company") was incorporated in the state of Delaware on January 3, 2011. Wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company as of September 30, 2025 include HealthCare Pharmaceuticals Pty Ltd. ("HCP Australia"), Leap Securities Corp., and Flame Biosciences LLC.

The Company is a biopharmaceutical company developing biomarker-targeted antibody therapies designed to treat patients with cancer. The Company's clinical stage program is sirexatamab (DKN-01), a monoclonal antibody that inhibits Dickkopf-related protein 1, or DKK1. The Company also has a preclinical antibody program, FL-501, that is designed to treat cachexia-related indications.

The Company has historically devoted substantially all of its resources to development efforts relating to its product candidates, including manufacturing and conducting clinical trials of its product candidates, providing general and administrative support for these operations and protecting its intellectual property. The Company does not have any products approved for sale and has not generated any revenue from product sales. The Company has funded its operations primarily through proceeds from its sales of common stock and preferred stock and proceeds from the issuance of notes payable.

As further discussed under "Note 11 — Subsequent Events", on October 6, 2025, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the "Securities Purchase Agreement") with the investors named therein (the "Purchasers"), for the private placement (the "October 2025 Private Placement") of (i) an aggregate of 15,212,311 shares of common stock of the Company, par value $0.001 per share (the "Common Stock"), at an offering price of $0.52064 per share, (ii) pre-funded warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 80,768,504 shares of Common Stock at an offering price of $0.51964 per pre-funded warrant, each exercisable for one share of Common Stock at the exercise price of $0.001 per share, and (iii) common warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 71,985,605 shares of Common Stock, each exercisable for one share of Common Stock at the exercise price of $0.5335 per common warrant share. The shares of common stock, together with the common warrants, had an aggregate purchase price of $0.61439 per unit, and the pre-funded warrants, together with the common warrants had an aggregate purchase price of $0.61339 per unit. The October 2025 Private Placement closed on October 8, 2025 (the "Closing Date"), with the Company receiving aggregate gross proceeds of approximately USD $58,888, before deducting fees and expenses. Immediately following the Closing Date, the Company initiated a strategy to deploy a portion of its capital raised that is not required to provide working capital for its ongoing operations to accumulate digital assets, focused on Zcash. Zcash is a protocol and blockchain network of connected devices all over the world, working together to validate transactions and maintain the Zcash ledger. ZEC is the monetary unit, or coin, of Zcash. Zcash allows for greater privacy, providing users with options for fully shielded transactions in which the sender, recipient, and amount are encrypted.

*On November 12, 2025, the Company announced it would change its name from "Leap Therapeutics, Inc." to "Cypherpunk Technologies Inc.", and change its trading symbol from "LPTX" to "CYPH". Effective as of November 12, 2025, the Company was renamed to "Cypherpunk Technologies Inc." to reflect the strategic focus on acquiring ZEC, participating in the development of Zcash, and the values of privacy and liberty. The Company's ongoing research and development operations will be conducted under a wholly-owned subsidiary named "Leap Therapeutics, Inc." See "Note 11 — Subsequent Events."*

*Basis of Presentation*

*The December 31, 2024 year-end condensed consolidated balance sheet data in the accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements was derived from audited consolidated financial statements. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. However, the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2024, included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 26, 2025.*

*The accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared on the same basis as the audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2024. In the opinion of management, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments which are necessary for the fair presentation of the Company's financial position as of September 30, 2025, statements of operations and statements of comprehensive loss for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 and statements of cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024. Such adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2025.*

*Liquidity*

Since inception, the Company has been engaged in organizational activities, including raising capital, and research and development activities. The Company does not yet have a product that has been approved by the FDA, has not generated any product sales revenues and has not yet achieved profitable operations, nor has it ever generated positive cash flows from operations. There is no assurance that profitable operations, if achieved, could be sustained on a continuing basis. Further, the Company's future operations are dependent on the success of the Company's efforts to raise additional capital, its research and commercialization efforts, regulatory approval, and, ultimately, the market acceptance of the Company's products.

In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 205-40, Going Concern, the Company has evaluated whether there are conditions and events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the condensed consolidated financial statements are issued. As of September 30, 2025, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $502,752 at September 30, 2025, and during the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company incurred a net loss of $35,381. The Company expects to continue to generate operating losses for the foreseeable future. In addition, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $9,686 as of September 30, 2025. As discussed further under "Note 11 — Subsequent Events", the Company completed the October 2025 Private Placement on October 8, 2025, resulting in net proceeds of approximately $57,000, net of fees and offering expenses payable by the Company. The Company believes that its cash and cash equivalents of $9,686 as of September 30, 2025, together with the $7,000 of net proceeds from the October 2025 Private Placement that will be used to support operating the business, will be sufficient to fund its operating expenses for at least the next 12 months from issuance of these financial statements.

In addition, to support its future operations and recently announced digital asset treasury strategy, the Company will likely seek additional funding through public or private equity financings or government programs and will seek funding or development program cost-sharing through collaboration agreements or licenses with larger pharmaceutical or biotechnology companies. The inability to obtain funding, as and when needed, could have a negative impact on the Company's financial condition and ability to pursue its business strategies.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

*Principles of Consolidation*

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated upon consolidation.

*Use of Estimates*

The presentation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

*Research and development incentive income and receivable*

The Company recognizes other income from Australian research and development incentives when there is reasonable assurance that the income will be received, the relevant expenditure has been incurred, and the consideration can be reliably measured. The research and development incentive is one of the key elements of the Australian government's support for Australia's innovation system and is supported by legislative law primarily in the form of the Australian Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, as long as eligibility criteria are met.

Management has assessed the Company's research and development activities and expenditures to determine which activities and expenditures are likely to be eligible under the research and development incentive regime described above. At each period end, management estimates the refundable tax offset available to the Company based on available information at the time.

Under the program, a percentage of eligible research and development expenses incurred by the Company through its subsidiary in Australia are reimbursed. The percentage was 43.5% for the year ended December 31, 2024 and for the nine months ended September 30, 2025.

The research and development incentive receivable represents an amount due in connection with the above program. The Company recorded a research and development incentive receivable of $743 and $704 as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. During the three months ended September 30, 2024, the Company expensed ($499) of research and development incentive income recognized during the six months ended June 30, 2024, in connection with its estimated 2024 Australian tax liability. During the three months ended September 30, 2025, the Company expensed ($56) of research and development incentive income recognized during the six months ended June 30, 2025, in connection with its estimated 2025 Australian tax liability. The Company did not record any Australian research and development incentives during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024.

The following table shows the change in the research and development incentive receivable from January 1, 2024 to September 30, 2025 (in thousands):

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| Balance at January 1, 2024 | $771 |
| Foreign currency translation | (67) |
| Balance at December 31, 2024 | 704 |
| Foreign currency translation | 39 |
| Balance at September 30, 2025 | $743 |

---

*Foreign Currency Translation*

The financial statements of the Company's Australian subsidiary are measured using the local currency as the functional currency. The assets and liabilities of this subsidiary are translated into U.S. dollars at an exchange rate as of the consolidated balance sheet date. Equity is translated at historical exchange rates. Revenues and expenses are translated into U.S. dollars at average rates of exchange in effect during the period. The resulting cumulative translation adjustments have been recorded as a separate component of stockholders' equity. Realized and unrealized foreign currency transaction gains and losses are included in the results of operations.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

*Concentration of Credit Risk*

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents. All cash and cash equivalents are held in United States or Australian financial institutions and money market funds. At times, the Company may maintain cash balances in excess of the federally insured amount of $250 per depositor, per insured bank, for each account ownership category. Although the Company currently believes that the financial institutions with whom it does business will be able to fulfill their commitments to the Company, there is no assurance that those institutions will be able to continue to do so. The Company has not experienced any credit losses associated with its balances in such accounts for the year ended December 31, 2024 or for the nine months ended September 30, 2025.

*Restructuring Charges*

On June 23, 2025, the Company's Board of Directors approved a series of measures to conserve cash and reduce operating costs, including (i) the completion of the DeFianCe clinical trial and the wind-down of the Company's research and development activities, including the Company's sirexatamab and FL-501 development programs, and (ii) a reduction in force that impacted approximately 75% of the Company's workforce. The reduction in force was conducted in two phases (i) first, on June 30, 2025, that impacted the Company's Chief Operating Officer, Chief Scientific Officer and Chief Manufacturing Officer and (ii) second, on July 31, 2025 that impacted the Chief Medical Officer of the Company. As a result of this workforce reduction, during the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company incurred $4,527 of charges recorded within restructuring charges in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The Company does not expect to incur any further material charges related to this workforce reduction. The charges consist primarily of one-time employee severance and benefit costs and stock-based compensation expense related to acceleration of vesting. As of September 30, 2025, $2,204 is accrued within accrued expenses for employee severance benefits.

*Deposits*

As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, there were $783 and $823, respectively, of deposits made by the Company with certain service providers that are to be applied to future payments due under the service agreements or returned to the Company if not utilized, which were recorded in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

*Warrants*

The Company will recognize on a prospective basis the value of the effect of the down round feature in the warrants to purchase shares of common stock that were issued in a private placement in November 2017 (the "2017 Warrants") and in the warrants that were issued in a private placement in March 2020 (the "March 2020 Coverage Warrants") when it is triggered (i.e., when the exercise price is adjusted downward). This value is measured as the difference between (1) the financial instrument's fair value (without the down round feature) using the pre-trigger exercise price and (2) the financial instrument's fair value (with the down round feature) using the reduced exercise price. The value of the effect of the down round feature will be treated as a dividend and a reduction to income available to common stockholders in the basic earnings per share ("EPS") calculation. In connection with the private placement of common stock and prefunded warrants completed in April 2024 (the "April 2024 Private Placement"), when the 2017 Warrants were repriced from $10.55 to $2.82 as a result of a down round, the Company recorded a dividend of $234 during the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The 2017 Warrants expired in November 2024.

See "Note 11 — Subsequent Events" for a discussion of warrants issued in connection with the October 2025 Private Placement.

*Fair Value of Financial Instruments*

Certain assets and liabilities are carried at fair value under GAAP. Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. Financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value are to be classified and disclosed in one of the following three levels of the fair value hierarchy, of which the first two are considered observable and the last is considered unobservable:

● Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

● Level 2—Observable inputs (other than Level 1 quoted prices), such as quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active for identical or similar assets or liabilities, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

● Level 3—Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to determining the fair value of the assets or liabilities, including pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques.

A summary of the assets carried at fair value in accordance with the hierarchy defined above is as follows (in thousands):

---

| | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **Total** | **Level 1** | **Level 2** | **Level 3** |
| **September 30, 2025** |  |  |  |  |
| **Assets:** |  |  |  |  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Cash equivalents | $4213 | $4213 | $— | $— |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Total assets | $4213 | $4213 | $— | $— |
| **December 31, 2024** |  |  |  |  |
| **Assets:** |  |  |  |  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Cash equivalents | $23299 | $23299 | $— | $— |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Total assets | $23299 | $23299 | $— | $— |

---

Cash equivalents of $4,213 and $23,299 as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, consisted of overnight investments and money market funds which are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy because they are valued using quoted market prices in active markets.

The carrying values of the research and development incentive receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair value due to the short-term nature of these assets and liabilities.

*Leases*

The Company accounts for leases in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification, or ASC, Topic 842, *Leases*.

At the inception of an arrangement, the Company determines whether the arrangement is or contains a lease based on the unique facts and circumstances present. Most leases with a term greater than one year are recognized on the balance sheet as right-of-use assets, lease liabilities and, if applicable, long-term lease liabilities. The Company has elected not to recognize on the balance sheet leases with terms of one year or less. Operating lease liabilities and their corresponding right-of-use assets are recorded based on the present value of lease payments over the expected remaining lease term. The Company has determined that the rate implicit in the lease is not determinable and the Company does not have borrowings with similar terms and collateral. Therefore, the Company considered a variety of factors, including observable debt yields from comparable companies and the volatility in the debt market for securities with similar terms, in determining that 8% was reasonable to use as the incremental borrowing rate for purposes of the calculation of lease liabilities.

In accordance with the guidance in Topic 842, components of a lease should be split into three categories: lease components (e.g., land, building, etc.), non-lease components (e.g., common area maintenance, maintenance, consumables, etc.), and non-components (e.g., property taxes, insurance, etc.). Then the fixed and in-substance fixed contract consideration (including any related to non-components) must be allocated based on fair values to the lease components and non-lease components.

Although separation of lease and non-lease components is required, certain practical expedients are available. Entities may elect the practical expedient to not separate lease and non-lease components. Rather, they would account for each lease component and the related non-lease component together as a single component. The Company has elected to account for the lease and non-lease components of each of its operating leases as a single lease component and allocate all of the contract consideration to the lease component only. The lease component results in an operating right-of-use asset being recorded on the consolidated balance sheets and amortized such that lease expense is recorded on a straight line basis over the term of the lease.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

*Segment Information*

The Company's chief operating decision maker ("CODM"), the Chief Executive Officer, manages the Company's business activities as a single operating and reportable segment at the consolidated level. Accordingly, the Company's CODM uses consolidated net loss to measure segment loss, allocate resources and assess performance. Further, the CODM reviews and utilizes functional expenses (research and development and general and administrative) at the consolidated level to manage the Company's operations. Other segment items included in consolidated net loss are interest income and foreign currency gain (loss), which are reflected in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

*Income taxes*

On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act ("OBBBA") was signed into law, introducing significant changes to the U.S. federal income tax code. The OBBBA includes provisions affecting corporate tax incentives, international tax provisions, and various business credits and deductions. Pursuant to ASC 740, Income Taxes, the Company considered the effects of the OBBBA in its tax provision for the third quarter of 2025, the period in which the legislation was enacted. The tax law change did not have an impact on the tax provision recorded by the Company for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025.

*Net Loss per Share*

Basic net loss per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period and, if dilutive, the weighted average number of potential shares of common stock, including the assumed exercise of stock options and warrants.

*Subsequent Events*

The Company considers events or transactions that occur after the balance sheet date but prior to the issuance of the financial statements to provide additional evidence for certain estimates or to identify matters that require additional disclosure. Subsequent events have been evaluated as required. See "Note 11 — Subsequent Events" for additional discussion of the October 2025 Private Placement and related matters.

*Recently issued accounting pronouncements*

From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") or other standard setting bodies that the Company adopts as of the specified effective date.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. The guidance in ASU 2023-09 improves the transparency of income tax disclosures by greater disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction. The standard is effective for public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2023-09 effective January 1, 2025 and it did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements at adoption date.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-08, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Crypto Assets (Subtopic 350-60), which requires certain crypto assets to be measured at fair value with changes recognized in net income and mandates additional disclosures. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, including interim periods within those years, with early adoption permitted. The Company did not hold or acquire any crypto assets as of September 30, 2025, and therefore this guidance had no impact on the accompanying financial statements. Subsequent to quarter-end, the Company acquired crypto assets, which will be accounted for in accordance with ASU 2023-08.

| &nbsp;&nbsp;Accrued expenses | $3860 | $8536 |

---

4. Leases

**The Company has an operating lease for real estate in the United States and does not have any finance leases. The Company's leases may contain options to renew and extend lease terms and options to terminate leases early. Reflected in the right-of-use asset and lease liability on the Company's consolidated balance sheets are the periods provided by renewal and extension options that the Company is reasonably certain to exercise, as well as the periods provided by termination options that the Company is reasonably certain to not exercise.**

**The Company's existing lease agreement for the premises located at 47 Thorndike Street (the "47 Thorndike Street Lease") was set to expire on July 31, 2025. On July 1, 2025 the Company entered into a Fifth Amendment to Lease ("Fifth Amendment") with Landlord, extending the 47 Thorndike Street Lease as a tenancy-at will (as amended, the "Lease"). The term of the Lease expires on the later of August 31, 2025 or the last day of any month identified by notice by the Company or Landlord to the other, not less than sixty (60) days in advance. The Lease includes variable lease and non-lease components that are not included in the right-of-use asset and lease liability and are reflected as an expense in the period incurred. Such payments primarily include common area maintenance charges.**

**In calculating the present value of future lease payments, the Company utilized its incremental borrowing rate based on the lease term. The Company has an existing net lease in which the non-lease components (e.g. common area maintenance, maintenance, consumables, etc.) are paid separately from rent based on actual costs incurred and therefore are not included in the right-of-use asset and lease liability and are reflected as an expense in the period incurred. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company extended the term of its operating lease to July 31, 2025 and recorded an additional right-of-use asset and lease liability of $420 and during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company extended the term of its operating lease as a tenancy-at-will, with the term expiring on the later of August 31, 2025 or the last day of any month identified by notice by the Company or Landlord to the other, not less than sixty (60) days in advance, and recorded an additional right of-of-use asset and lease liability of $39. As of September 30, 2025, a right-of-use asset of $38 and lease liability of $38 are reflected on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. The Company recorded rent expense of $78 and $115, respectively, during the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 and $313 and $340, respectively, during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024. Cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of lease liabilities was $58 and $117, respectively, during the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 and $292 and $396, respectively, during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024.**

#### Future lease payments under non-cancelable operating leases as of September 30, 2025 are detailed as follows:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **Future Operating Lease Payments** | **Future Operating Lease Payments** |
| 2025 | $38 |
| **Total Lease Payments** | **38** |
| Less: imputed interest |  |
| **Total operating lease liabilities** | $**38** |

**5. Warrants**

As of September 30, 2025, the number of shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of outstanding warrants consisted of the following:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **September 30, 2025** | **September 30, 2025** | **September 30, 2025** | |

| March 2020 Coverage Warrants | 2594503 | $21.10 | Jan - March 2027 |
|  | 3290766 |  |  |

---

*2017 Warrants*

The 2017 Warrants contained full ratchet anti-dilution protection provisions. The Company recognized on a prospective basis the value of the effect of the down round feature in the warrant when it was triggered (i.e., when the exercise price was adjusted downward). This value was measured as the difference between (1) the financial instrument's fair value (without the down round feature) using the pre-trigger exercise price and (2) the financial instrument's fair value (with the down round feature) using the reduced exercise price. The value of the effect of the down round feature was treated as a dividend and a reduction to income available to common stockholders in the basic EPS calculation. In connection with the April 2024 Private Placement, when the 2017 Warrants were repriced from $10.55 to $2.82, the Company recorded a dividend of $234 during the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The 2017 Warrants expired in November 2024.

7. Equity Incentive Plans

*Equity Incentive Plans*

On January 20, 2017, the Company's stockholders approved the 2016 Equity Incentive Plan (the "2016 Plan").

On June 16, 2022, the Company's stockholders approved the 2022 Equity Incentive Plan (the "2022 Plan"), which provides for a total of 750,000 new shares of the Company's common stock to be granted. In addition, on June 16, 2023, and July 2, 2024, stockholders approved new shares of the Company's common stock to be added to the 2022 Plan for future issuance of 2,250,000 and 2,000,000, respectively.

As of September 30, 2025, there were 5,653,387 shares available for grant under the Company's equity incentive plans.

A summary of stock option activity under the Equity Plans is as follows:

The assumptions that the Company used to determine the grant-date fair value of stock options granted to employees and directors during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 were as follows, presented on a weighted average basis:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
|  | **Nine Months Ended**<br>**September 30,** |
|  | **2024** |
| Expected volatility | 92.99% |
| Weighted average risk-free interest rate | 3.98% |
| Expected dividend yield | 0.00% |
| Expected term (in years) | 6.46 |

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

Stock options generally vest over a three or four year period, as determined by the compensation committee of the Board of Directors at the time of grant. The options expire 10 years from the grant date. As of September 30, 2025, there was approximately $824 of unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested stock options, which is expected to be recognized over a remaining weighted-average period of approximately 1.52 years.

*Restricted Stock Units ("RSUs")*

The Company did not grant any RSUs during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024.

8. Net Loss Per Share

Basic and diluted net loss per share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 was calculated as follows (in thousands except share and per share amounts).

---

| | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **Three Months Ended September 30,**  | **Three Months Ended September 30,**  | **Nine Months Ended September 30,**  | **Nine Months Ended September 30,**  |
|  | **2025** | **2024** | **2025** | **2024** |
| Numerator: |  |  |  |  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Net loss | $(3303) | $(18176) | $(35381) | $(52124) |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Dividend attributable to down round feature of warrants |  |  |  | (234) |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Net loss attributable to common stockholders for basic and diluted loss per share | $(3303) | $(18176) | $(35381) | $(52358) |
| Denominator: |  |  |  |  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Weighted average number of common shares outstanding – basic and diluted | 41444979 | 41209639 | 41386929 | 36307890 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Net loss per share attributable to common stockholders – basic and diluted | $(0.08) | $(0.44) | $(0.85) | $(1.44) |

---

Included within weighted average common shares outstanding for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 are 5,450, and 2,945,175, respectively, common shares issuable upon the exercise of certain warrants, which are exercisable at any time for nominal consideration, and as such, the shares are considered outstanding for the purpose of calculating basic and diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders.

All warrants exercisable for common stock participate on a one-for-one basis and shares and warrants exercisable for Series X Preferred Stock issued participate on an as converted basis with common stock in the distribution of dividends, if and when declared by the board of directors, on the Company's common stock. For purposes of computing EPS, these securities are considered to participate with common stock in earnings of the Company. Therefore, the Company calculates basic and diluted EPS using the two-class method. Under the two-class method, net income for the period is allocated between common stockholders and participating securities according to dividends declared and participation rights in undistributed earnings. No income was allocated to the warrants and Series X Preferred Stock for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, as results of operations were a loss for the period.

The Company's potentially dilutive securities include RSUs, stock options and warrants. These securities were excluded from the computations of diluted net loss per share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, as the effect would be to reduce the net loss per share. The following table includes the potential shares of common stock, presented based on amounts outstanding at each period end, that were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders for the periods indicated because including them would have had an anti-dilutive effect:

---

| | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **Three Months Ended September 30,**  | **Three Months Ended September 30,**  | **Nine Months Ended September 30,**  | **Nine Months Ended September 30,**  |

#### Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
*The following Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations ("MD&A") is intended to help the reader understand our results of operations and financial condition. This MD&A is provided as a supplement to, and should be read in conjunction with, our condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes thereto and other disclosures included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including the disclosures under Part II, Item IA "Risk Factors," and our audited condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, on March 26, 2025. Our condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and, unless otherwise indicated, amounts are presented in U.S. dollars.*

#### Company Overview
We are a biopharmaceutical company developing biomarker-targeted antibody therapies designed to treat patients with cancer. Our clinical stage program is sirexatamab (DKN-01), a monoclonal antibody that inhibits Dickkopf-related protein 1, or DKK1. We also have a preclinical antibody program, FL-501, that is designed to treat cachexia-related indications.

We have historically devoted substantially all of our resources to development efforts relating to our product candidates, including manufacturing and conducting clinical trials of our product candidates, providing general and administrative support for these operations and protecting our intellectual property. We do not have any products approved for sale and have not generated any revenue from product sales. We have funded our operations primarily through proceeds from our sales of common stock and preferred stock and proceeds from the issuance of notes payable.

In October 2025, we initiated a strategy to deploy a portion of our capital raised that is not required to provide working capital for our ongoing operations to accumulate digital assets. Zcash is a protocol and blockchain network of connected devices all over the world, working together to validate transactions and maintain the Zcash ledger. ZEC is the monetary unit, or coin, of Zcash. Zcash allows for greater privacy, providing users with options for fully shielded transactions in which the sender, recipient, and amount are encrypted.

We renamed our company "Cypherpunk Technologies Inc." to reflect the strategic focus on acquiring ZEC, participating in the development of Zcash, and the values of privacy and liberty. Our ongoing research and development operations will be conducted under a wholly-owned subsidiary named "Leap Therapeutics, Inc."

In the transaction, we issued: (i) 15,212,311 shares of common stock, (ii) pre-funded warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 80,768,504 shares of common stock, and (ii) warrants to purchase an additional 71,985,605 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.5335 per share. Parcrest International ("Parcrest") served as our placement agent in connection with the October 2025 Private Placement. On the Closing Date, we paid Parcrest $1.5 million, of which $1.0 million was paid in cash and the remainder in the form of warrants (the "Placement Agent Warrants"), which are of the same series and have the same terms as the Common Warrants, to purchase up to 4,000,000 shares of Common Stock.

● **Appointed digital asset executives Khing Oei as Chairman of the Board of Directors and Will McEvoy as a member of the Board of Directors and Chief Investment Officer** 

In November 2025, we appointed Khing Oei as Chairman of the Boad of Directors, and Will McEvoy as Chief Investment Officer and a Board member. In conjunction with these appointments, Christopher Mirabelli will step down from his role as Chairman of the Board of Directors, while remaining a Board member.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

Khing Oei is a seasoned investor with a strong track record of investing in public, private and digital markets. He is the Founder and CEO of Treasury, an emerging euro-denominated Bitcoin treasury firm. Before Treasury, Mr. Oei was the Founder and CEO of Captur (formerly AlphaSwap), a decentralized asset management platform. He was previously the Founder and Chief Investment Officer of Eyck Capital, a London-based event-driven hedge fund focused on distressed and special situations across credit and equities, managing over $200 million in assets. Prior to that role, Mr. Oei was a Managing Principal and Portfolio Manager at Bardin Hill (formerly Halcyon), a $10 billion multi-strategy hedge fund where, as CEO of its European operations, he led European distressed investments and managed the firm's $2.5 billion CLO platform. Mr. Oei began his career at Goldman Sachs in the Special Situations Group and later worked at Fortress Investment Group's Drawbridge Special Opportunities Fund.

Will McEvoy is a Principal at Winklevoss Capital, where he leads investing and identifies opportunities on the frontier, from crypto and space to energy, bio, and defense. He focuses on companies and technologies that slow entropy and create order in critical domains. Before joining Winklevoss Capital, Will authored Bitcoin and crypto research and Fundstrat and helped build one of Dynasty Financial Partners' highest performing client platforms. He also serves on the board of Real Bedford FC and holds a degree from the George Washington University.

● **Successfully established a digital asset treasury strategy focused on Zcash ("ZEC"), acquiring 203,775.27 ZEC to date at an aggregate purchase price of approximately $50.0 million, or $245.37 per ZEC** 

We believe that privacy-protecting assets and related technologies will be critical in an increasingly digital world. We intend to acquire and hold ZEC as our primary digital asset and to be an active participant in the Zcash community. As of November 11, 2025, we have acquired 203,775.27 ZEC at an aggregate purchase price of approximately $50.0 million, or $245.37 per ZEC.

Zcash functions much like Bitcoin, and it was created from the original Bitcoin code base. Like Bitcoin, Zcash is a digital currency that can be transmitted over a peer-to-peer payment system, except that Zcash uses a protocol called "zero-knowledge proofs" that allows users to engage in blockchain transactions while maintaining greater privacy. This cryptographic technology allows parties to decide whether or not to reveal sensitive information and enables private, public, shielding, and deshielding transactions on the Zcash blockchain. For example, the owner of a specific address is able to choose to disclose an address and transaction details to a trusted third party, potentially for compliance or audit reasons. Alternatively, transacting can work in a similar manner to the Bitcoin blockchain, where the sender and receiver addresses and value of the transfer are all publicly visible.

**Leap Therapeutics Highlights:**

●  ***Presented final clinical data from Part B of the DeFianCe study of sirexatamab plus bevacizumab and chemotherapy in CRC patients at ESMO Congress 2025.*** 

In a Mini Oral session at the ESMO Congress in October 2025, we presented the final results from Part B of the DeFianCe study, a Phase 2 study of sirexatamab, an anti-DKK1 monoclonal antibody, in combination with bevacizumab and chemotherapy (Sirexatamab Arm) compared to bevacizumab and chemotherapy (Control Arm) in patients with microsatellite stable CRC who have received one prior systemic therapy for advanced disease. Sirexatamab demonstrated a statistically significant benefit on overall response rate (ORR) and progression-free survival (PFS) in patients with high levels of DKK1, along with a positive trend on ORR and PFS in the full intent-to-treat population.

● Across the DKK1-high (upper median) patients (n=88):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;o ORR was 38.0% in the Sirexatamab Arm compared to 23.7% ORR in the Control Arm.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;o mPFS was 9.03 months in the Sirexatamab Arm compared to 7.06 months in the Control Arm, Hazard Ratio (HR) 0.61, p-value = 0.0255.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;o mOS was not reached in the Sirexatamab Arm compared to 14.39 months in the Control Arm, HR 0.42, p-value = 0.0118.

● Across the DKK1-high (upper quartile) patients (n=44):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;o ORR was 44.0% in the Sirexatamab Arm compared to 15.8% ORR in the Control Arm.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;o mPFS was 9.36 months in the Sirexatamab Arm compared to 5.88 months in the Control Arm, HR 0.46, p-value = 0.0168.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;o mOS was not reached in the Sirexatamab Arm compared to 9.66 months in the Control Arm, HR 0.17, p-value < 0.001.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

● In the full intent-to-treat population (n=188):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;o ORR was 35.1% in the Sirexatamab Arm compared to 26.6% ORR in the Control Arm.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;o mPFS was 9.2 months in the Sirexatamab Arm compared to 8.3 months in the Control Arm, HR 0.84, p-value = 0.1712.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;o Event-free rate favors Sirexatamab Arm beginning at month 9 (53 vs 47%) with further separation at month 12 (34 vs 23%).

● **Advancing DKK1 biomarker diagnostic test and engaging with regulatory authorities.** 

We are now in the process of engaging with regulatory agencies in the United States and Europe over the registrational pathway for sirexatamab in CRC. We are also working with a leading diagnostics research laboratory to optimize the DKK1 biomarker diagnostic test that could be used to identify CRC patients with poor prognosis and to select patients for treatment with sirexatamab. We expect to provide an update on the next steps in development and on the registrational pathway in the first quarter of 2026.

#### Financial Overview

#### Research and Development Expenses
Our research and development activities have included conducting nonclinical studies and clinical trials, manufacturing development efforts and activities related to regulatory filings for our product candidates, primarily sirexatamab. We recognize research and development expenses as they are incurred. Our research and development expenses during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 consisted primarily of:

● salaries and related overhead expenses for personnel in research and development functions, including costs related to stock-based compensation;

● fees paid to consultants and CROs for our nonclinical and clinical trials, and other related clinical trial fees, including but not limited to laboratory work, clinical trial database management, clinical trial material management and statistical compilation and analysis;

● costs related to acquiring and manufacturing clinical trial material; and

● costs related to compliance with regulatory requirements.

Our direct research and development expenses are tracked on a program-by-program basis and consist primarily of internal and external costs, such as employee costs, including salaries and stock-based compensation, other internal costs, fees paid to consultants, central laboratories, contractors and CROs in connection with our clinical and preclinical trial development activities. We use internal resources to manage our clinical and preclinical trial development activities and perform data analysis for such activities.

We participate, through our subsidiary in Australia, in the Australian government's research and development ("R&D") Incentive program ("R&D Incentive Program"), such that a percentage of our eligible research and development expenses are reimbursed by the Australian government as a refundable tax offset and such incentives are reflected as other income.

The successful development of our clinical product candidates is highly uncertain. At this time, we cannot reasonably estimate the nature, timing or costs of the efforts that will be necessary to complete the remainder of the development of any of our product candidates or the period, if any, in which material net cash inflows from these product candidates may commence.

#### General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries and related costs, including stock-based compensation, for personnel in executive, finance and administrative functions. General and administrative expenses also include direct and allocated facility-related costs as well as professional fees for legal, patent, consulting, accounting and audit services.

#### Interest income
Interest income consists primarily of interest income earned on cash and cash equivalents.

#### Research and development incentive income
Research and development incentive income includes payments under the R&D Incentive Program from the government of Australia. The R&D Incentive Program is one of the key elements of the Australian government's support for Australia's innovation system. It was developed to assist businesses in recovering some of the costs of undertaking research and development. The research and development tax incentive provides a tax offset to eligible companies that engage in research and development activities.

Companies engaged in research and development may be eligible for either:

● a refundable tax offset at a rate of 18.5% above the company's tax rate for entities with income of less than A$20 million per annum; or

● a non-refundable tax offset for all other entities which is a progressive marginal tiered R&D intensity threshold. Increasing rates of benefit apply for incremental research and development expenditure by intensity:

● 0 to 2% intensity: an 8.5% premium to the company's tax rate

● Greater than 2% intensity: a 16.5% premium to the company's tax rate;

We recognize as income the amount we expect to be reimbursed for qualified expenses.

#### Foreign currency translation adjustment
Foreign currency translation adjustment consists of gains (losses) due to the revaluation of foreign currency transactions attributable to changes in foreign currency exchange rates associated with our Australian subsidiary.

#### Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of our financial statements and related disclosures requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, costs and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities in our financial statements. We base our estimates on historical experience, known trends and events and various other factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. We evaluate our estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis. Our actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Our critical accounting policies are described under the heading "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations— Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and Estimates" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 26, 2025, and the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. We believe that of our critical accounting policies, the following accounting policies involve the most judgment and complexity:

● accrued research and development expenses;

● research and development incentive receivable; and

● stock-based compensation.

*Research and development expenses were $1.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $14.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024. The decrease of $13.7 million in research and development expenses during the three months ended September 30, 2025 as compared to the same period in 2024, was primarily due to a decrease of $5.3 million in clinical trial costs and a decrease of $3.7 million in manufacturing costs due to the shut down of our clinical trials. There was also a decrease of $3.3 million in payroll and other related expenses due to a decrease in headcount of our R&D full-time employees due to a reduction in force, a decrease of $0.7 million in stock based compensation expense as there were no stock options granted during the three months ended September 30, 2025 and a decrease of $0.7 million in consulting fees related to research and development activities.*

*General and Administrative Expenses*

*General and administrative expenses were $1.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $2.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024. The decrease of $1.0 million in general and administrative expenses during the three months ended September 30, 2025 as compared to the same period in 2024, was due to a $0.5 million decrease in payroll and other related expenses due to a decrease in incentive based compensation expense for our general and administrative employees and a decrease in headcount of our general and administrative employees due to a reduction in force. There was also a decrease of $0.3 million in stock based compensation expense as there were no stock options granted during the three months ended September 30, 2025 and a $0.2 million decrease in professional fees.*

*Interest Income*

**During the three months ended September 30, 2025, we recorded interest income of $0.1 million. During the three months ended September 30, 2024, we recorded interest income of $0.9 million. The decrease was due to a higher average cash and cash equivalent balance during the three months ended September 30, 2024.**

#### Australian Research and Development Incentives
**We record R&D incentive income based upon the applicable percentage of eligible research and development activities under the R&D Incentive Program, which expenses included the cost of manufacturing clinical trial material. During the three months ended September 30, 2024, we expensed $0.5 million of R&D incentive income recognized during the six months ended June 30, 2024, in connection with our estimated 2024 Australian tax liability. During the three months ended September 30, 2025, we expensed $0.1 million of R&D incentive income recognized during the six months ended June 30, 2025, in connection with our estimated 2025 Australian tax liability.**

#### The R&D incentive receivable has been recorded as "Research and development incentive receivable" in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

#### Foreign Currency Gain/Loss
***During the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, we recorded an immaterial amount of foreign currency transaction gains (losses). Foreign currency transaction gains and losses are due to changes in the Australian dollar exchange rate related to activities of the Australian entity.***

*Research and development expenses were $24.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $44.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The decrease of $19.4 million in research and development expenses during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 as compared to the same period in 2024, was primarily due to a decrease of $7.8 million in clinical trial costs and a decrease of $5.1 million in manufacturing costs due to the shut down of our clinical trials. There was also a decrease of $5.0 million in payroll and other related expenses due to a decrease in headcount of our R&D full-time employees due to a reduction in force, a decrease of $1.0 million in stock based compensation expense as there were no stock options granted during the three months ended September 30, 2025 and a decrease of $0.5 million in consulting fees related to research and development activities.*

*General and Administrative Expenses*

*General and administrative expenses were $6.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $9.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The decrease of $3.1 million in general and administrative expenses during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 as compared to the same period in 2024, was primarily due to a $1.8 million decrease in payroll and other related expenses due to a decrease in incentive based compensation expense for our general and administrative employees and a decrease in headcount of our general and administrative employees due to a reduction in force. There was also a decrease of $0.7 million in professional fees and a decrease of $0.6 million in stock based compensation expense as there were no stock options granted during the three months ended September 30, 2025.*

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

*Restructuring Charges*

During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, we announced a workforce reduction involving approximately 75% of our workforce. As a result of this workforce reduction, during the nine months ended September 30, 2025, we incurred $4.5 million of charges, consisting primarily of one-time employee severance and benefit costs and stock based compensation expense related to acceleration of vesting.

*Interest Income*

**During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, we recorded interest income of $0.8 million. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, we recorded interest income of $2.5 million. The decrease was due to a higher average cash and cash equivalent balance during the nine months ended September 30, 2024.**

#### Foreign Currency Gain/Loss
**During the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, we recorded an immaterial amount of foreign currency transaction gains (losses). Foreign currency transaction gains and losses are due to changes in the Australian dollar exchange rate related to activities of the Australian entity.**

#### Financial Position, Liquidity and Capital Resources
Since our inception, we have been engaged in organizational activities, including raising capital, and research and development activities. We do not yet have a product that has been approved by the Food and Drug Administration (the "FDA"), have not yet achieved profitable operations, nor have we ever generated positive cash flows from operations. There is no assurance that profitable operations, if achieved, could be sustained on a continuing basis. Further, our future operations are dependent on the success of efforts to raise additional capital, our research and commercialization efforts, regulatory approval, and, ultimately, the market acceptance of our products.

In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 205-40, Going Concern, we have evaluated whether there are conditions and events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the condensed consolidated financial statements are issued. As of September 30, 2025, we had an accumulated deficit of $502.8 million at September 30, 2025, and during the nine months ended September 30, 2025, we incurred a net loss of $35.4 million. We expect to continue to generate operating losses for the foreseeable future. In addition, we had cash and cash equivalents of $9.7 million as of September 30, 2025. In October 2025, we completed the October 2025 Private Placement, resulting in net proceeds of approximately $57.0 million, net of fees and offering expenses payable by us. We believe that our cash and cash equivalents of $9.7 million as of September 30, 2025, together with the $7.0 million of net proceeds from the October 2025 Private Placement that will be used to support operating the business, will be sufficient to fund our operating expenses for at least the next 12 months from issuance of these financial statements.

In addition, to support our future operations and recently announced digital asset treasury strategy, we will likely seek additional funding through public or private equity financings or government programs and will seek funding or development program cost-sharing through collaboration agreements or licenses with larger pharmaceutical or biotechnology companies. The inability to obtain funding, as and when needed, could have a negative impact on our financial condition and ability to pursue our business strategies.

| &nbsp;&nbsp;Net decrease in cash and cash equivalents  | $(37563) | $(7820) |

---

***Operating activities*. Net cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was primarily related to our net loss from the operation of our business of $35.4 million and net changes in working capital, including a decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $5.7 million and a decrease in lease liabilities of $0.2 million. These changes were partially offset by a decrease of $0.8 million in prepaid expenses and other assets, a decrease of $0.2 million in right-of-use asset and noncash stock-based compensation expense of $3.0 million.**

**Net cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was primarily related to our net loss from the operation of our business of $52.1 million and net changes in working capital, including a decrease in lease liabilities of $0.3 million. These changes were partially offset by an increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $2.6 million, an increase in taxes payable of $0.7 million, a decrease of $0.3 million in right-of-use asset, a decrease of $0.1 million in other assets and noncash stock-based compensation expense of $4.0 million.**

#### Investing Activities. There were no investing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024.
***Financing Activities.* Net cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 consisted of $40.0 million in gross proceeds from the April 2024 Private Placement and an immaterial amount of proceeds upon the exercise of stock options, partially offset by $2.9 million of offering costs paid. Net cash used in financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 consisted of $0.3 million of principal payments of insurance financing and an immaterial amount of proceeds upon the exercise of stock options.**

#### Item 4. Controls and Procedures

#### Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") is (1) recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms and (2) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our President and Chief Executive Officer, who is also serving as Chief Financial Officer and therefore currently serves as both our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As of September 30, 2025, our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer, who is also serving as Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) using the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013 Framework). Our management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives, and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Our principal executive officer and principal financial officer has concluded, based upon the evaluation described above, that, as of September 30, 2025, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and that such material information is accumulated and communicated to the Company's management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

#### Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
During the three months ended September 30, 2025, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to affect, internal control over financial reporting.

**Item 1A. Risk Factors**

An investment in our securities involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risk factors discussed in Part I, Item 1A "Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 as filed with the SEC on March 26, 2025, which could materially affect our business, financial condition, operating results or cash flows. In addition to those risk factors, you should consider the following:

***We have recently shifted a portion of our business strategy towards a focus on our digital asset treasury strategy, and we may be unable to successfully implement this new strategy.***

We have shifted a portion of our business strategy towards our digital asset treasury strategy, including potential investments in Zcash (ZEC). There is no assurance that we will be able to successfully implement this new strategy or operate ZEC-related activities at the scale or profitability currently anticipated. This strategic shift requires specialized employee skillsets and operational, technical and compliance infrastructure to support ZEC and related activities. This also requires that we implement different security protocols and treasury management practices. Further, there is ongoing scrutiny and limited formal guidance from regulatory agencies, including Nasdaq and the SEC, with respect to the treatment of public company digital asset treasury strategies. There is no assurance that we will be able to execute this strategy by building out the needed infrastructure within the timeframe that we currently anticipate. Errors by key management or our third party service providers could result in significant loss of funds and reduced rewards. As a result, our shift towards our digital asset treasury strategy could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.

***Our shift towards our digital asset treasury strategy requires substantial changes in our day-to-day operations and exposes us to significant operational risks.***

Our shift towards our digital asset treasury strategy exposes us to significant operational risks. The Zcash ecosystem is rapidly evolving, with frequent upgrades and protocol changes that may require significant adjustments to our operational setup. The Zcash upgrades and protocol changes may require that we incur unanticipated costs and could cause temporary service disruptions. We may also need to employ third-party service providers in our operations, which may introduce risks outside of our control, including significant cybersecurity risks. Any of these operational risks could materially and adversely affect our ability to execute our digital asset treasury strategy, prevent us from realizing positive returns and severely hurt our financial condition.

***ZEC is a highly volatile digital asset, and fluctuations in the price of ZEC may adversely influence our financial results and the market price of our listed securities.***

We plan to use a significant portion of capital in our treasury to purchase ZEC, a digital asset. The price of ZEC has been subject to dramatic price fluctuations and is highly volatile. In the twelve months ended November 7, 2025, ZEC has traded between approximately $26.14 and $736.51.

Any increase or decrease in the fair value of ZEC will require us to recognize unrealized gains or losses, which could be material to our financial results for the applicable reporting period, which may create significant volatility in our reported earnings. Any decrease in reported earnings or increased volatility of such earnings could have a material adverse effect on the market price of our securities. In addition, the application of generally accepted accounting principles in the United States with respect to digital assets remains uncertain in some respects, and any future changes in the manner in which we account for our ZEC holdings could have a material adverse effect on our financial results and the market price of our securities.

In addition, if investors view the value of our securities as dependent upon or linked to the value or change in the value of our ZEC holdings, the price of ZEC may significantly influence the market price of our securities. ZEC is a highly volatile asset. Our financial results and the market price of our listed securities would be adversely affected, and our business and financial condition would be negatively impacted, if the price of ZEC decreased substantially, including as a result of:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Decreased user and investor confidence in Zcash, including due to the risk factors described herein;

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· investment and trading activities such as (i) trading activities of highly active retail and institutional users, speculators, miners, and investors, (ii) significant dispositions of ZEC by large holders, or (iii) actual or perceived manipulation of the markets for ZEC;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· negative publicity, media or social media coverage, or sentiment due to events in or relating to, or perception of, Zcash, for example: (i) public perception that ZEC or other digital assets can be used as a vehicle for money laundering or to circumvent government regulations or sanctions; (ii) regulations in the European Union that, beginning on July 1, 2027, will prohibit transactions involving anonymous wallets and privacy-focused digital assets such as ZEC; (iii) filings for bankruptcy protection or bankruptcy proceedings of major digital assets or blockchain industry participants; and (iv) activities relating to other digital assets, including "meme coins";

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· changes in consumer preferences and the perceived value or prospects or utility of Zcash;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· developments affecting other companies pursuing a digital asset treasury strategy similar to ours, such as the abandonment of the strategy by such other companies, the failure by such other companies to satisfy their debt or other financial obligations, market concerns as to the viability or creditworthiness of such other companies, the loss or disposition of substantial assets by such other companies, regulatory or legal judgments or actions against such other companies due to their adoption of a digital asset treasury strategy, or any other similar actions or negative outcomes impacting such other companies;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· competition from other digital assets that exhibit comparable or better privacy, speed, security, scalability or efficiency, that feature other more favored characteristics, that are backed by governments, including the U.S. government, or reserves of fiat currencies, or that represent ownership or security interests in physical assets;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· the introduction of a government-issued digital currency that could eliminate or reduce the need or demand for private-sector issued digital assets such as ZEC, or significantly limit their utility;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· a decrease in the price of other digital assets, to the extent the decrease in the price of such other digital assets may cause a decrease in the price of ZEC or adversely affect investor confidence in digital assets generally;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· developments relating to the Zcash blockchain and protocol, including (i) changes to the Zcash blockchain and protocol that impact its security, speed, scalability, usability or value, such as changes to the cryptographic security protocol underpinning the blockchain and protocol, changes to the maximum number of ZEC outstanding, changes to the mutability of transactions, changes relating to the size of blockchain blocks, and similar changes; (ii) failures to make upgrades to the Zcash blockchain and the protocol to adapt to security, technological, legal or other challenges; and (iii) changes to the Zcash blockchain and protocol that introduce software bugs, security risks or other elements that adversely affect Zcash and the privacy functionality;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· disruptions, failures, unavailability, or interruptions in services of trading venues for ZEC or other digital assets;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· the filing for bankruptcy protection by, liquidation of, or market concerns about the financial viability of digital asset custodians, trading venues, lending platforms, investment funds, or other digital asset industry participants;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· regulatory, legislative, enforcement and judicial actions that adversely affect access to, functionality of, or performance of Zcash, or that adversely affect the operations of or otherwise prevent digital asset custodians, trading venues, lending platforms or other digital assets industry participants from trading in and holding ZEC;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· macroeconomic changes, such as changes in the level of interest rates and inflation, fiscal and monetary policies of governments, trade restrictions and fiat currency devaluations; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· developments in mathematics or technology, including in digital computing, algebraic geometry and quantum computing, that could result in the cryptography used by the Zcash blockchain becoming insecure or ineffective.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

In addition, the stock market and the markets for both digital asset-influenced and technology companies have experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that have often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of companies in those markets. In particular, future trading prices in our securities may reflect market dynamics that are not connected to valuation methods commonly associated with operating companies in similar industries or with companies engaged predominantly in passive investments in digital assets or other commodities, such as exchange-traded products ("ETPs"). Equity market capitalizations of other such companies are often in excess of stockholders' equity calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, and in excess of valuations that might traditionally be expected based on their operating performances, cash flows and net assets. Investors may therefore be unable to assess the value of our common stock or evaluate the risks of an investment in our company using traditional or commonly used enterprise valuation methods. We cannot predict how these dynamics may evolve over time, or whether or how long they may last. These market and industry factors may significantly harm the market price of our listed securities, regardless of our actual operating performance.

The price of our listed securities has been and is likely to continue to be volatile, and with the adoption of our new digital asset treasury strategy, we expect to see additional volatility in our stock price. In addition, if investors view the value of our listed securities as dependent upon or linked to the value or change in the value of our ZEC holdings, the price of ZEC may significantly influence the market price of our listed securities. The price of ZEC has historically been, and is likely to continue to be, volatile.

***We have limited experience in investing in and managing the ownership of digital assets, and we rely on an affiliate of Winklevoss Capital, Gemini Space Sciences LLC, for the trading execution and custody of our ZEC, and we will not have direct control over our digital assets held through such custodian.***

We have limited experience in investing in and managing the ownership of digital assets, such as ZEC. We are reliant on an affiliate of Winklevoss Capital, Gemini Space Sciences LLC ("Gemini"), for the trading execution by which we acquire ZEC and to serve as the custodian for our ZEC on its regulated exchange and wallet storage system. As a result, our ZEC holdings will be concentrated with a single custodian, and we rely solely on its proprietary storage system and wallet infrastructure, security infrastructure, financial reporting, and software systems for our ZEC holdings. In Gemini's structure to support trading, customer digital assets are pooled together, and Gemini relies on an internal customer ledger to maintain the segregated customer digital asset ownership. Gemini's Omnibus Wallet Structure is made up of a set of online (i.e., "Hot") and offline (e.g., "Cold") wallets (or "storage tiers"), with Gemini responsible for managing the movement of digital assets between the online and offline storage tiers. While we have agreements governing Gemini's activities relating to our account, we have limited influence over its actual performance.

ZEC is controllable only by the possessor of both the unique public key and private key(s) relating to the local or online digital wallet in which ZEC is held. While the Zcash blockchain ledger requires a public key relating to a digital wallet to be published when used in a transaction, private keys must be safeguarded and kept private in order to prevent a third party from accessing ZEC held in such wallet. To the extent the private key(s) for a digital wallet are lost, destroyed, or otherwise compromised and no backup of the private key(s) is accessible, neither we nor our custodians will be able to access ZEC held in the related digital wallet.

Furthermore, we cannot provide assurance that the digital wallets at Gemini will not be compromised as a result of a cyberattack. ZEC and the Zcash blockchain ledger, as well as other digital assets and blockchain technologies, have been, and may in the future be, subject to security breaches, cyberattacks, or other malicious activities. The failure of Gemini to successfully carry out its contractual duties, trading instructions, safeguard our ZEC, or maintain its internal systems and processes could have a material adverse effect on our ZEC holdings, digital asset treasury strategy, financial condition, and business operations.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

Moreover, our agreements with Gemini might terminate for a variety of reasons, and if we need to enter into alternative custody arrangements, we may not be able to enter into arrangements with alternative custodians or to do so on commercially reasonable terms. Switching or adding additional custodians for digital assets involves additional cost, custody risk, and requires management time and focus. While we will conduct due diligence on our custodians and any exchanges or platforms we may use, there can be no assurance that such diligence will uncover all risks, including operational deficiencies, hidden vulnerabilities or legal noncompliance. In addition, there is risk during any transition period when a new custodian would commence services to safeguard our ownership of our digital assets. There can be no assurance that we will not encounter challenges in the custody of our digital assets and that those challenges will not have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition and prospects, and results of operations.

Additionally, our use of custodians, such as Gemini, exposes us to the risk that the ZEC that the custodian holds on our behalf could be subject to bankruptcy, receivership or similar insolvency proceedings, and we could be treated as a general unsecured creditor of the custodian, inhibiting our ability to exercise ownership rights with respect to such ZEC. A series of recent high-profile bankruptcies, closures, liquidations, regulatory enforcement actions and other events relating to companies operating in the digital asset industry, the closure or liquidation of certain financial institutions that provided lending and other services to the digital assets industry, and the filing and subsequent settlement of a civil fraud lawsuit have highlighted the counterparty risks applicable to owning and transacting in digital assets. These bankruptcies, closures, liquidations and other events have likely negatively impacted the adoption rate and use of digital assets. Additional bankruptcies, closures, liquidations, regulatory enforcement actions or other events involving participants in the digital assets industry in the future may further negatively impact the adoption rate, price, and use of digital assets, limit the availability to us of financing collateralized by such assets, or create or expose additional counterparty risks. Any loss associated with such bankruptcy, receivership or similar insolvency proceedings is unlikely to be covered by any insurance coverage we may maintain related to our ZEC. Even if we are able to prevent our digital assets from being considered the property of a custodian's bankruptcy estate as part of an insolvency proceeding, it is possible that we would still be delayed or may otherwise experience difficulty in accessing our digital assets held by the affected custodian during the pendency of the insolvency proceedings. Any such outcome could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and the market price of our listed securities. The legal framework governing digital asset ownership and rights in custodial or insolvency contexts remains uncertain and continues to evolve, which could result in unexpected losses, protracted recovery processes or adverse treatment in insolvency proceedings.

Any insurance that may cover losses of our ZEC holdings may cover none or only a small fraction of the value of the entirety of our ZEC holdings, and there can be no guarantee that such insurance will be maintained as part of the custodial services we have or that such coverage will cover losses with respect to our ZEC.

***Because of the pseudonymous nature of blockchain transactions, we may inadvertently and without knowledge, directly or indirectly, engage in transactions with or for the benefit of prohibited persons under U.S. or foreign sanctions laws.***

We are subject to the rules enforced by the Office of Foreign Asset Control ("OFAC"), including prohibitions on conducting direct or indirect business with persons named on, or owned by persons named on, OFAC's various sanctions lists, including the Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons list. We are also prohibited from direct or indirect dealings with persons located in, organized in, or nationals of, jurisdictions subject to U.S. embargos, and may be prohibited from dealing with persons in other jurisdictions subject to targeted U.S. sanctions. U.S. sanctions compliance obligations apply to transactions in digital assets and U.S. sanctions authorities have in recent years directed significant attention to sanctions compliance in the digital asset industry. Because of the pseudonymous nature of blockchain transactions and decentralized applications, we may inadvertently and without knowledge, directly or indirectly, engage in transactions with or for the benefit of prohibited persons. Civil liability for OFAC sanctions violations is typically regarded as "strict liability" violations, meaning we may be held responsible for transacting with prohibited parties even if we have no knowledge that a particular counterparty is a prohibited person under the OFAC sanctions regulations. In addition, we may be subject to non-U.S. economic sanctions laws and regulations to the extent we conduct activity within the jurisdiction of other sanctions regimes, including those of the European Union and United Kingdom.

OFAC and other governmental authorities have significant discretion in the interpretation and enforcement of sanctions laws and regulations. Moreover, economic sanctions laws and regulations continue to evolve, often with little or no notice, which could raise operational or compliance challenges. If it is determined that we have transacted with prohibited persons, even inadvertently, this could result in substantial reputational harm, fines or penalties, and costs associated with governmental inquiries and investigations. Any or all of the foregoing could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, operations or financial condition.

***The cryptography used to enhance the privacy of transactions on the Zcash network is new and could ultimately fail, or could be used to facilitate illicit activities, and businesses that facilitate transactions in ZEC may be at increased risk of criminal or civil lawsuits, or of having services cut off, which could negatively affect the price of ZEC and the value of our listed securities.***

The Zcash network uses zk-SNARKs, which provide additional layers of confidentiality to transactions on the Zcash network by protecting the amount and the recipient in ZEC transactions. This cryptography is new and could ultimately fail, resulting in less privacy than believed or no privacy at all, and could adversely affect one's ability to complete transactions on any such digital asset network or otherwise adversely interfere with the integrity of the relevant blockchain. Digital asset networks have in the past been, and may continue to be, used to facilitate illicit activities. Because ZEC is a privacy-preserving digital asset, it is also subject to certain types of attacks that may go undetected. For example, on February 5, 2019, the team behind ZEC announced that it discovered a vulnerability in its zk-SNARK implementation on March 1, 2018 that was subsequently patched in connection with a network upgrade called "Sapling" in October 2018.

Moreover, law enforcement agencies and other market participants have often relied on the transparency of blockchains to facilitate investigations and comply with laws, such as anti-money laundering and economic sanctions laws. Because of the privacy-enhancing features of the Zcash network, law enforcement agencies and other market participants may have less visibility into transaction-level data, which may encourage bad actors to misuse the Zcash network for such illicit purposes. As a result, businesses that facilitate transactions in ZEC may be at increased risk of potential criminal or civil lawsuits, or of having banking or other services cut off if there is a concern that these features interfere with the performance of anti-money laundering duties and economic sanctions checks. Since 2019, ZEC, along with several other privacy tokens including Monero, Dash, and Horizen have been delisted from multiple exchanges. Although these digital asset trading platforms did not disclose the reasons for such delisting, and some digital asset trading platforms subsequently relisted ZEC, it is believed that they were the result of the privacy-enhancing features of the digital assets, and there is a risk that other digital asset trading platforms may remove ZEC from their platforms as a result of these concerns. Other service providers of such businesses may also cut off services if there is a concern that the Zcash network is being used to facilitate crime. Any of the aforementioned occurrences could increase regulatory scrutiny of the Zcash network and/or adversely affect the price of ZEC, the attractiveness of the Zcash network and an investment in our listed securities.

***If we, Gemini or our respective third-party service providers experience a security breach or cyberattack and unauthorized parties obtain access to our ZEC, or if our access to our wallets holding ZEC is lost or destroyed, or other similar circumstances or events occur, we may lose some or all of our ZEC and our financial condition and results of operations could be materially adversely affected.***

We expect that substantially all of the ZEC we acquire will be held in custody accounts at Gemini. Security breaches and cyberattacks are of particular concern with respect to digital assets, including ZEC. ZEC and other blockchain-based digital assets and the entities that provide services to participants in the Zcash ecosystem have been, and may in the future be, subject to security breaches, cyberattacks, or other malicious activities. For example, in October 2021, it was reported that hackers exploited a flaw in the account recovery process and stole from the accounts of at least 6,000 customers of the Coinbase exchange, although the flaw was subsequently fixed and Coinbase reimbursed affected customers. Similarly, in November 2022, hackers exploited weaknesses in the security architecture of the FTX Trading digital asset exchange and reportedly stole over $400 million in digital assets from customers.

A successful security breach or cyberattack could result in:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· a partial or total loss of our ZEC in a manner that may not be covered by insurance or the liability provisions of the custody agreements with the custodians who hold our ZEC;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· harm to our reputation and brand;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· improper disclosure of data and violations of applicable data privacy and other laws; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· significant regulatory scrutiny, investigations, fines, penalties and other legal, regulatory, contractual and financial exposure.

Further, any actual or perceived data security breach or cybersecurity attack directed at other companies with digital assets or companies that operate in the digital asset ecosystem, regardless of whether we are directly impacted, could lead to a general loss of

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

confidence in the broader Zcash ecosystem or in the use of the Zcash network to conduct financial transactions, which could negatively impact us.

Attacks upon systems across a variety of industries, including industries related to digital assets such as Zcash, are increasing in frequency, persistence and sophistication and, in many cases, are being conducted by sophisticated, well-funded and organized groups and individuals, including state actors. The techniques used to obtain unauthorized, improper or illegal access to systems and information (including personal data and digital assets), disable or degrade services, or sabotage systems are constantly evolving, may be difficult to detect quickly and often are not recognized or detected until after they have been launched against a target. These attacks may occur on our systems or those of our third-party service providers or partners. We may experience breaches of our security measures due to human error, malfeasance, insider threats, system errors or vulnerabilities or other irregularities. In particular, we expect that unauthorized parties will attempt to gain access to our systems and facilities, as well as those of our partners and third-party service providers, through various means, such as hacking, social engineering, phishing and fraud. Threats can come from a variety of sources, including criminal hackers, hacktivists, state-sponsored intrusions, industrial espionage and insiders. In addition, certain types of attacks could harm us even if our systems are left undisturbed. For example, certain threats are designed to remain dormant or undetectable, sometimes for extended periods of time, or until launched against a target and we may not be able to implement adequate preventative measures. Further, there has been an increase in such activities due to the increase in work-from-home arrangements. The risk of cyberattacks could also be increased by cyberwarfare in connection with the ongoing Russia-Ukraine and Israel-Hamas conflicts, or other future conflicts, including potential proliferation of malware into systems unrelated to such conflicts. Any future breach of our operations or those of others in the Zcash ecosystem, including third-party services on which we rely, could materially and adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

***A disruption of the Internet may affect the operation of the blockchain networks, which may adversely affect the digital asset industry and an investment in the Company.***

Blockchain networks rely on the Internet. A significant disruption of Internet connectivity could disrupt blockchain networks' functionality until such disruption is resolved. A disruption in the Internet could adversely affect an investment in the Company. In particular, some variants of digital assets have experienced a number of denial-of-service attacks, which have led to temporary delays in block creation and digital asset transfers.

Digital assets are also susceptible to border gateway protocol hijacking ("BGP hijacking"). Such an attack can be a very effective way for an attacker to intercept traffic in route to a legitimate destination. BGP hijacking impacts the way different nodes and miners are connected to one another to isolate portions of them from the remainder of the network, which could lead to a risk of the network allowing double-spending and other security issues. If BGP hijacking occurs on any blockchain network, participants may lose faith in the security of digital assets, which could affect digital asset value and consequently the value of our common stock.

Any Internet failures or Internet connectivity-related attacks that impact the ability to transfer ZEC could have a material adverse effect on the price of ZEC and the value of an investment in our company.

***The irreversibility of digital asset transactions exposes us to risks of theft, loss and human error, which could negatively impact our business.***

Digital asset transactions are not, from an administrative perspective, reversible without the consent and active participation of the recipient of the transaction or, in theory, control or consent of a majority of the processing power on that digital asset network. Once a transaction has been verified and recorded in a block that is added to the blockchain, an incorrect transfer of digital assets or a theft of digital assets generally will not be reversible, and we may not be capable of seeking compensation for any such transfer or theft.

Although we plan to regularly transfer digital assets to or from vendors, consultants and service providers, it is possible that, through computer or human error, or through theft or criminal action, such assets could be transferred in incorrect amounts or to unauthorized third parties.

To the extent we are unable to seek a corrective transaction to identify the third party which has received our digital assets through error or theft, we will be unable to revert or otherwise recover the impacted digital assets, and any such loss could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

***We face significant risks relating to disruptions, forks, 51% attacks, hacks, network disruptions, or other adverse events or other compromises to blockchain networks, which could materially and adversely impact our business, financial condition and results of operations.***

Blockchain networks are maintained by decentralized networks of participants, and as such are susceptible and vulnerable to a variety of risks, including disruptions, security breaches, and fundamental technical issues. Blockchain networks are vulnerable to attacks by malicious actors who gain control of a significant portion of the network's mining hash rate, a scenario commonly referred to as a 51% attack. In such an event, the attacker could double-spend transactions, reverse previously confirmed transactions, or otherwise disrupt the normal operations of the network. Successful 51% attacks have historically undermined trust in affected blockchain networks and could materially decrease the value of digital assets.

Additionally, forks, or splits in the underlying protocol may occur when participants fail to reach consensus on proposed upgrades or changes. Forks can lead to the creation of duplicate networks, confusion among market participants, dilution of the original network's value and disruption of the network's operations. Hard forks, in particular, can materially and adversely impact the perceived stability and value of digital assets, leading to reduced demand and price declines.

Further, hacks and other security breaches targeting the core infrastructure of blockchain networks or major participants, such as exchanges and custodians, could severely impact the reputation and market confidence in these networks. Exploits of protocol-level vulnerabilities could also compromise the integrity of blockchain networks, resulting in a substantial loss of value.

The success and growth of digital assets depend significantly on their continued security, stability and scalability. Any technical failures, consensus breakdowns, governance disputes or regulatory interventions that diminish confidence in the networks or impair their functionality could lead to a material decline in their market price, which could materially and adversely impact our business, financial condition and results of operations. A sustained or significant decrease in the price or liquidity of digital assets, whether due to 51% attacks, forks, hacks, network disruptions or other adverse events, could negatively impact our business, financial condition and results of operations. Furthermore, even the perception that any of these events could occur may lead to significant market volatility and price declines, adversely affecting our business, financial condition and results of operations.

***We face risks relating to the potential compromise of the Zcash network security by emerging technologies, including artificial intelligence and quantum computing, which may materially and adversely impact our operations and financial condition.***

The security and integrity of the Zcash network are fundamentally dependent on the robustness of its cryptographic algorithms. Blockchain protocols rely heavily on public key cryptography and hashing algorithms to secure transactions, safeguard private keys, and prevent double-spending. Advances in emerging technologies, particularly artificial intelligence ("AI") and quantum computing, may pose significant risks to each network's security and operational stability.

Quantum computing, in particular, presents a long-term threat to the cryptographic assumptions underpinning the Zcash network. Should quantum computing achieve sufficient maturity, it could undermine the effectiveness of the cryptographic algorithms used to secure the blockchain, such as elliptic curve digital signature algorithms. A sufficiently powerful quantum computer could potentially reverse-engineer private keys from public addresses or compromise the blockchain's consensus mechanism, leading to the theft of digital assets, double-spending, and other forms of fraud. Although current quantum computing capabilities are not yet at this level, advancements in quantum technologies could materialize more rapidly than anticipated, creating significant systemic risks for the Zcash network.

AI may also pose indirect security risks. AI-driven cyberattacks, including advanced phishing schemes, autonomous malware, and intelligent blockchain analysis tools, could increase the sophistication and success rate of attacks targeting ZEC's users, exchanges, custodians, and node operators. The use of AI to exploit vulnerabilities in software, mining hardware, or network protocols could threaten the stability and reliability of the Zcash networks and other digital asset ecosystems.

There can be no assurance that Zcash's current cryptographic safeguards will be sufficient to protect against future technological advances. While research and development efforts are ongoing to develop quantum-resistant cryptographic protocols, the Zcash network may face challenges in adopting such technologies at scale, particularly given its decentralized governance structure. Any successful attack or perceived vulnerability arising from AI or quantum computing could materially and adversely affect the price, liquidity, and adoption of ZEC and could negatively impact our business, financial condition and results of operations.

***ZEC and other digital assets are novel assets and are subject to significant legal, commercial, tax, technical and regulatory uncertainty, which could materially adversely affect our financial position, operations and prospects.***

The first digital asset, Bitcoin, was launched in 2009. ZEC was launched in 2016. ZEC and other digital assets are relatively novel and are subject to significant uncertainty, which could adversely impact their price. The application of state and federal securities laws and other laws and regulations to digital assets is unclear in certain respects, and it is possible that regulators in the United States or foreign countries may interpret or apply existing laws and regulations in a manner that adversely affects the price of ZEC or the ability of individuals or institutions such as us to own or transfer ZEC. For example, beginning on July 1, 2027, regulations in the European Union will prohibit transactions involving anonymous wallets and privacy-focused digital assets such as ZEC.

The U.S. federal government, states, regulatory agencies, and foreign countries may also enact new laws and regulations, or pursue regulatory, legislative, enforcement or judicial actions, that could materially impact the price of ZEC or the ability of individuals or institutions such as us to own or transfer ZEC.

It is not possible to predict whether or when new laws and regulations will be enacted or adopted that change the legal framework governing digital assets or provide additional authorities to the SEC, the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (the "CFTC"), or other regulators, or whether or when any other federal, state or foreign legislative or regulatory bodies will take any similar actions. For example, legislation such as the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act of 2025 (the "CLARITY Act"), a comprehensive digital asset market structure and regulation bill, as proposed by the U.S. House of Representatives in July 2025 could, if it became law, grant the CFTC additional regulatory and supervisory powers with respect to spot digital assets as "digital commodities" and potentially result in the imposition of additional regulatory obligations and burdens to us, which could potentially include registration, disclosure, reporting, and business conduct requirements.

It is also not possible to predict the nature of any such additional laws or authorities, how additional legislation or regulatory oversight might impact the ability of digital asset markets to function, the willingness of financial and other institutions to continue to provide services to the digital assets industry, or how any new laws or regulations, or changes to existing laws or regulations, might impact the value of digital assets generally and ZEC specifically. The consequences of any new law or regulation relating to digital assets and digital asset activities could adversely affect the market price of ZEC, as well as our ability to hold or transact in ZEC, and in turn adversely affect the market price of our listed securities. Furthermore, other companies have begun to adopt strategies similar to ours with respect to digital assets, and this could result in new laws or regulations, or new interpretations of existing laws or regulations, impacting our digital asset treasury strategy, particularly if the adoption of digital asset strategies by other companies continues or accelerates.

Moreover, the risks of engaging in a digital asset treasury strategy generally, and ZEC as the digital asset specifically, are relatively novel and have created, and could continue to create, complications due to the lack of experience that third parties have with companies engaging in such a strategy, such as increased costs of director and officer liability insurance or the potential inability to obtain such coverage on acceptable terms in the future.

The growth of the digital assets industry in general, and the use and acceptance of Zcash in particular, may also impact the price of ZEC and is subject to a high degree of uncertainty. The pace of worldwide growth in the adoption and use of ZEC may depend, for instance, on public familiarity with digital assets, ease of buying, accessing or gaining exposure to ZEC, institutional demand for ZEC as an investment asset, the participation of traditional financial institutions in the digital assets industry, consumer demand for ZEC as a store of value or means of payment, and the availability and popularity of alternatives. Even if growth in ZEC adoption occurs in the near or medium term, there is no assurance that ZEC usage will continue to grow over the long term.

A variety of technical factors related to the Zcash blockchain could also impact the price of ZEC. For example, malicious attacks by miners, inadequate mining fees to incentivize validating of Zcash transactions, hard "forks" of the Zcash blockchain into multiple blockchains, and advances in digital computing, algebraic geometry, and quantum computing could undercut the integrity of the Zcash blockchain and protocol, and negatively affect the price of ZEC. The liquidity of ZEC may also be reduced and damage to the public perception of ZEC may occur, if financial institutions were to deny or limit banking services to businesses that hold ZEC, provide Zcash-related services or accept ZEC as payment, which could also decrease the price of ZEC. The liquidity of ZEC may also be impacted to the extent that changes in applicable laws and regulatory requirements, such as those proposed by the European Union, negatively impact the ability of exchanges and trading venues to provide services for ZEC and other privacy-based digital assets.

***Zcash does not pay interest or dividends and our ability to generate a return on investment from our purchases of ZEC is dependent on an appreciation in value of ZEC.***

Zcash does not pay interest or dividends. The ability to generate a return on investment from the purchase of ZEC will depend on whether there is appreciation in the value of ZEC following our purchases. Future fluctuations in ZEC's trading prices may result in our converting ZEC into US dollars, Euros, or other assets with a value substantially below the cost of such purchases.

***Digital asset holdings are less liquid than cash and cash equivalents and may not be able to serve as a source of liquidity for us to the same extent as cash and cash equivalents.***

Our ZEC holdings are less liquid than our existing cash and cash equivalents and may not be able to serve as a source of liquidity for us to the same extent as cash and cash equivalents. Historically, the digital asset market has been characterized by significant volatility in price, limited liquidity and trading volumes compared to sovereign currencies markets, concerns regarding pseudonymity of digital asset addresses, a developing regulatory landscape, potential susceptibility to market abuse and manipulation, compliance and internal control failures at exchanges, and various other risks inherent in its entirely electronic, virtual form and decentralized network. During times of market instability, we may not be able to sell our digital assets at favorable prices or at all. As a result, digital asset holdings may not be able to serve as a source of liquidity for us to the same extent as cash and cash equivalents. Further, digital assets we hold with our custodians and transact with our trade execution partners do not enjoy the same protections or insurance as are available to cash or securities deposited with or transacted by institutions subject to regulation by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or the Securities Investor Protection Corporation. Additionally, we may be unable to enter into term loans or other capital raising transactions collateralized by our unencumbered digital assets or otherwise generate funds using our digital asset holdings, including in particular during times of market instability or when the price of digital assets has declined significantly. If we are unable to sell our digital assets, enter into additional capital raising transactions, including capital raising transactions using ZEC as collateral, or otherwise generate funds using our ZEC holdings, or if we are forced to sell our digital assets at a significant loss, in order to meet our working capital requirements, our business and financial condition could be negatively impacted.

***The concentration of our ZEC holdings could enhance the risks inherent in our digital asset treasury strategy.***

The concentration of our ZEC holdings limits the risk mitigation that we could achieve if we were to purchase a more diversified portfolio of treasury assets, and the absence of diversification enhances the risks inherent in our Zcash digital asset treasury strategy. Any future significant declines in the price of ZEC would have a more pronounced impact on our financial condition than if we used our cash to purchase a more diverse portfolio of assets.

Historically, the digital asset markets have been characterized by significant volatility in price, limited liquidity and trading volumes compared to sovereign currencies markets, relative anonymity, a developing regulatory landscape, potential susceptibility to market abuse and manipulation, compliance and internal control failures at exchanges and various other risks inherent in its entirely electronic, virtual form and decentralized network. During times of market instability, we may not be able to sell our ZEC at favorable prices or at all. Further, any ZEC we hold with Gemini or other custodians and transact with our trade execution partners does not enjoy the same protections as are available to cash or securities deposited with or transacted by institutions subject to regulation by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or the Securities Investor Protection Corporation. If we are unable to sell our ZEC, enter into additional capital raising transactions, or otherwise generate funds using our ZEC holdings, or if we are forced to sell our ZEC at a significant loss, in order to meet our working capital requirements, our business and financial condition could be negatively impacted.

***The concentration of our expected digital asset holdings relative to non-digital assets enhances the risks inherent in our digital asset treasury strategy.***

We expect ZEC to comprise a significant portion of our total assets. The concentration of our digital asset holdings limits the risk mitigation that we could take advantage of by purchasing a more diversified portfolio of treasury assets, and the absence of diversification enhances the risks inherent in our digital asset treasury strategy. If there is a significant decrease in the price of ZEC, we will experience a more pronounced impact on our financial condition than if we used our cash to purchase a more diverse portfolio of assets.

***Our historical financial statements do not reflect the potential variability in earnings that we may experience in the future relating to our ZEC holdings***

Because we only recently initiated our Zcash digital asset treasury strategy, our historical financial statements for periods prior to September 30, 2025, do not reflect our Zcash digital asset treasury strategy and the potential variability in earnings that we may experience in the future from holding or selling significant amounts of ZEC. The price of ZEC has historically been subject to dramatic price fluctuations and is highly volatile. In the twelve months ended November 7, 2025, ZEC has traded between approximately $26.14 and $736.51.

In December 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2023-08, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Crypto Assets (Subtopic 350-60): Accounting for and Disclosure of Crypto Assets ("ASU 2023-08"), which we have adopted. We will determine the fair value of our ZEC based on quoted (unadjusted) prices on the Gemini exchange (our principal market for ZEC). ASU 2023-08 requires us to measure our ZEC holdings at fair value in our statement of financial position, and to recognize gains and losses from changes in the fair value of our ZEC in net income each reporting period. ASU 2023-08 also requires us to provide certain interim and annual disclosures with respect to our ZEC holdings. The standard is effective for our interim and annual periods beginning January 1, 2025, with a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings as of the beginning of the annual reporting period in which we adopt the guidance. Due in particular to the volatility in the price of digital assets, we expect the adoption of ASU 2023-08 to have a material impact on our financial results in future periods, increase the volatility of our financial results, and affect the carrying value of ZEC on our balance sheet, and it could also have adverse tax consequences, which in turn could have a material adverse effect on our financial results and our stock price. Additionally, as a result of ASU 2023-08 requiring a cumulative-effect adjustment to our opening balance of retained earnings as of the beginning of the annual period in which we adopt the guidance and not permitting retrospective restatement of our historical financial statements, our future results will not be comparable to results from periods prior to our adoption of the guidance. Any unrealized gain on digital assets reflected in our financial results for a given quarter does not reflect cash actually earned by us during that quarter, and a significant increase in our assets included on our balance sheet is not associated with an actual increase in our liquidity. As a result, volatility in our earnings may be significantly more than what we experienced in prior periods.

***If we are unable to raise additional capital on acceptable terms, our ability to implement and sustain a digital asset treasury strategy may be compromised.***

Our digital asset treasury strategy contemplates the discretionary purchase of ZEC and related yield-generating instruments. The capital required to acquire and actively manage ZEC may exceed our existing cash resources and cash flows from operations. Market conditions, our share price performance, the volatility of digital assets, and regulatory uncertainties could impair our ability to access debt or equity capital on terms acceptable to us, or at all. Failure to obtain necessary financing could force us to curtail or abandon our digital asset strategy, which could materially harm our growth prospects and the value of our securities.

***Our ability to time the price of our purchases of ZEC pursuant to our digital asset treasury strategy will be limited.***

In future periods, we intend to continue to acquire additional ZEC in accordance with our digital asset treasury strategy. ZEC is a highly volatile asset. Volatility may continue in the future and historical trends could reverse dramatically. As a result, there can be no assurance that we will be able to purchase ZEC at favorable prices or avoid losses associated with declines in the value of ZEC. Our ability to time such purchases to coincide with favorable market conditions may be limited.

***A significant decrease in the market value of our digital asset holdings could adversely affect our ability to satisfy financial obligations, including any debt financings.***

As part of our digital asset treasury strategy, we may incur indebtedness and other fixed charges. If our businesses do not generate cash flow in future periods sufficient to satisfy our financial obligations, including our debt, we intend to fund our obligations using cash flow generated by equity or debt financing. Our ability to obtain equity or debt financing may in turn depend on, among other factors, the value of our ZEC holdings, investor sentiment and the general public perception of ZEC, as well as our strategy and our value proposition. Accordingly, a significant decline in the market value of our ZEC holdings or a negative shift in these other factors may create liquidity and credit risks, as such a decline or such shifts may adversely impact our ability to secure sufficient equity or debt financing to satisfy our financial obligations. These risks could materialize at times when ZEC is trading below its respective carrying value on our most recent balance sheet or below our cost basis. As ZEC will constitute a substantial part of our balance sheet, if we are unable to generate revenue or secure equity or debt financing in a timely manner, on favorable terms, or at all, we may be required to sell ZEC to satisfy these obligations. Any such sale of ZEC may have a material adverse effect on our operating

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

results, financial condition and future prospects, and could impair our ability to secure additional equity or debt financing in the future. Our inability to secure additional equity or debt financing in a timely manner, on favorable terms or at all, or to sell our ZEC in amounts and at prices sufficient to satisfy our financial obligations, including our debt service obligations, could cause us to default under such obligations. Any default on our indebtedness may have a material adverse effect on our operating results, financial condition and future prospects.

***Complex valuation controls and benchmark dependence may lead to restatements or control deficiencies.***

Reliance on third-party reference rates, principal market determinations or bespoke methodologies introduces risk if those benchmarks are disrupted or manipulated, or fail benchmark principles set by the International Organizational of Securities Commissions. Net asset value or fair value determinations of our ZEC could be challenged, leading to restatements or control deficiencies with respect to our financial statements.

Fair value, complex custody arrangements, staking reward recognition, fork/airdrop accounting and tax characterization increase the risk of material weaknesses in our accounting controls and procedures, restatements of our financial statements and adverse auditor opinions, all of which could potentially impair our access to capital markets and adversely affect our business and financial condition and the market price of our common stock.

***Our common stock may trade at a substantial premium or discount to the value of ZEC we hold, and our stock price may be more volatile than the price of ZEC.***

The market price of our common stock reflects many factors that do not affect the spot price of ZEC and may therefore diverge materially — positively or negatively — from the per-share value of our ZEC holdings (net of cash, other assets and liabilities). These factors include, among others: our corporate-level expenses; taxes; the timing, size and pricing of equity or debt financings (including at-the-market offerings, equity line financings or convertible securities), equity awards and other sources of dilution; expectations about our future purchases or sales of ZEC; our liquidity and public float; differences in trading hours and market microstructure between our common stock and spot markets for ZEC; changes in index inclusion, analyst coverage or investor sentiment toward us as an operating company; our corporate governance, financial reporting, and any actual or perceived operational, custody, technology or regulatory risks specific to us; and broader equity-market conditions independent of crypto-asset markets. As a result, our common stock may trade at a premium or discount to the value of our ZEC holdings for extended periods, and may be more volatile than the price of ZEC. Accordingly, investors could lose all or a substantial part of their investment even if the market price of ZEC does not decline, and may not benefit commensurately from increases in the market price of ZEC.

***Our Zcash treasury strategy subjects us to enhanced regulatory oversight.***

Several spot ETPs have received approval from the SEC to list their shares on a U.S. national securities exchange with continuous share creation and redemption at net asset value. Even though we are not, and do not function in the manner of, a spot ETP, it is possible that we nevertheless could face regulatory scrutiny from the SEC or other federal or state agencies due to our ZEC holdings.

In addition, there has been increasing focus on the extent to which digital assets can be used to launder the proceeds of illegal activities, fund criminal or terrorist activities, or circumvent sanctions regimes, including those sanctions imposed in response to the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine. While we have implemented and maintain policies and procedures reasonably designed to promote compliance with applicable anti-money laundering and sanctions laws and regulations and take care to only acquire our ZEC through Gemini, which is subject to anti-money laundering regulation and related compliance rules in the United States, if we are found to have purchased any of our ZEC from bad actors that have used Zcash to launder money or persons subject to sanctions, we may be subject to regulatory proceedings and any further transactions or dealings in ZEC by us may be restricted or prohibited.

Although our ZEC holdings do not currently serve as collateral securing any of our outstanding indebtedness as of the date hereof, we may incur indebtedness or enter into other financial instruments in the future that may be collateralized by our ZEC holdings. We may also consider pursuing strategies to create income streams or otherwise generate funds using our ZEC holdings. These types of ZEC-related transactions are the subject of enhanced regulatory oversight. These and any other ZEC-related transactions we may enter into, beyond simply acquiring and holding ZEC, may subject us to additional regulatory compliance requirements and scrutiny, including under federal and state money services regulations, money transmitter licensing requirements and various commodity and securities laws and regulations.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

Additional laws, guidance and policies may be issued by domestic and foreign regulators following the filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection by FTX, one of the world's largest digital asset exchanges, in November 2022. The FTX collapse may have increased regulatory focus on the digital assets industry. Increased enforcement activity and changes in the regulatory environment, including changing interpretations and the implementation of new or varying regulatory requirements by the government or any new legislation affecting ZEC, or other privacy-focused digital assets, as well as enforcement actions involving or impacting our trading venues, counterparties and custodians, may impose significant costs or significantly limit our ability to hold and transact in ZEC.

In addition, private actors that are wary of ZEC or the regulatory concerns associated with Zcash may in the future take actions that may have an adverse effect on our business or the market price of our listed securities. For example, it is possible that a financial institution could restrict customers from buying our securities if it were to determine that the value of our securities is closely tied to the performance of ZEC, signaling a reluctance to facilitate exposure to virtual currencies.

***Absent federal regulations, there is a possibility that ZEC may be classified as a "security." Any classification of ZEC as a "security" could lead to our falling under the definition of "investment company" under the Investment Act of 1940, as amended, and would subject us to additional regulation and could materially impact the operation of our business.***

Neither the SEC nor any other U.S. federal or state regulator has publicly stated whether they believe that ZEC is a "security." Despite the Executive Order titled "Strengthening American Leadership in Digital Financial Technology," which includes as an objective, "protecting and promoting the ability of individual citizens and private sector entities alike to access and … to maintain self-custody of digital assets," ZEC has not yet been classified with respect to U.S. federal securities laws. Therefore, while (for the reasons discussed below) we believe that ZEC is not a "security" within the meaning of the U.S. federal securities laws, and registration of the Company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Investment Company Act"), is therefore not required under the applicable securities laws, we acknowledge that a regulatory body or federal court may determine otherwise. Our belief, even if reasonable under the circumstances, would not preclude legal or regulatory action based on such a finding that ZEC is a "security" which would require us to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act.

ZEC functions much like Bitcoin, and it was created from the original Bitcoin code base, except that it uses a construct called "zero-knowledge proofs" that allows users to engage in blockchain transactions while maintaining far greater privacy. ZEC shares many features of bitcoin. Like bitcoin, ZEC is a digital currency that can be transmitted over a peer-to-peer payment system. And like bitcoin, all the ZEC currently in existence was created, and in the future can only be created, through mining. Because ZEC heavily resembles bitcoin, we believe that the analysis and statements from the SEC and CFTC that have stated that bitcoin is not a security apply to ZEC.

ZEC and other digital assets, as well as new business models and transactions enabled by blockchain technologies, present novel interpretive questions under the Investment Company Act. There is a risk that assets or arrangements that we have concluded are not securities could be deemed to be securities by the SEC or another authority for purposes of the Investment Company Act, which would increase the percentage of securities held by us for Investment Company Act purposes.

Regulatory change reclassifying ZEC as a security could lead to our falling within the definition of "investment company" under the Investment Company Act and could adversely affect the market price of ZEC and the market price of our common stock.

Under Sections 3(a)(1)(A) and (C) of the Investment Company Act, a company generally will be deemed to be an "investment company" for purposes of the Investment Company Act if (1) it is, or holds itself out as being, engaged primarily, or proposes to engage primarily, in the business of investing, reinvesting or trading in securities or (2) it is engaged, or proposes to engage, in the business of investing, reinvesting, owning, holding or trading in securities and it owns or proposes to acquire investment securities having a value exceeding 40% of the value of its total assets (exclusive of U.S. government securities and cash items) on an unconsolidated basis.

While the SEC has not stated a view as to whether ZEC is or is not a "security" for purposes of the federal securities laws, a determination by the SEC or a court of competent jurisdiction that ZEC is a security could lead to our meeting the definition of "investment company" under the Investment Company Act, if the portion of our assets that consists of investments in ZEC exceeds the 40% limit prescribed in the Investment Company Act, which would subject us to significant additional regulatory requirements that could have a material adverse effect on our business and operations and may also require us to change the manner in which we conduct our business.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

We intend to monitor our assets and income in order to conduct our business activities in a manner such that we do not fall within the definition of "investment company" under the Investment Company Act or would qualify under one of the exemptions or exclusions provided by the Investment Company Act and corresponding SEC rules. If ZEC is determined to be a security for purposes of the federal securities laws, we would evaluate taking steps to reduce our holdings of ZEC as a percentage of our total assets. These steps may include, among others, selling ZEC that we might otherwise hold for the long term and deploying our cash in assets that are not considered to be investment securities under the Investment Company Act, in which case we may be forced to sell our ZEC at unattractive prices. We may also seek to acquire additional assets that are not considered to be investment securities under the Investment Company Act and we may need to incur debt, issue additional equity or enter into other financing arrangements that are not otherwise attractive to our business. Any of these actions could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition. Moreover, we can make no assurance that we would successfully be able to take the necessary steps to avoid meeting the definition of "investment company" under the Investment Company Act and becoming subject to its requirements. If ZEC is determined to constitute a security for purposes of the federal securities laws and if we are not able to come within an available exemption or exclusion under the Investment Company Act, then we would have to register as an investment company and require us to change the manner in which we conduct our business. In addition, such a determination could adversely affect the market price of ZEC and in turn adversely affect the market price of our common stock, or subject us to risk of enforcement proceedings and lawsuits, which could result in potential injunctions, cease-and-desist orders, fines and penalties. Such developments would adversely affect our business, results of operations, financial condition, and prospects.

***We may be deemed to be a "commodity pool" under CEA and CFTC Rules as a result of our commodity interest trading, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.***

The CEA and CFTC Rules define a "commodity pool" as any investment trust, syndicate, or similar form of enterprise operated for the purpose of trading in "commodity interests," such as swaps, futures and options on an underlying commodity (including any digital asset that constitutes a commodity). The CFTC has previously interpreted "for the purpose of trading" as being triggered where only one swap is executed. The legal and regulatory landscape of CFTC commodity pool regulation is currently unclear as applied to digital asset treasury companies. Accordingly, (i) no person is registered with the CFTC as a commodity pool operator ("CPO") or a commodity trading adviser ("CTA") with respect to our company and (ii) our stockholders will not have the regulatory protections provided to investors in a commodity pool operated or advised by a registered CPO or CTA, as applicable.

If our company were determined to be a "commodity pool," including as a result of any future change in legislation, regulation or interpretation, we may be subject to additional regulatory requirements which may be burdensome or costly or that could make it impractical or impossible for us to continue our business as currently contemplated. For example, a commodity pool must generally be operated as a separately cognizable entity from its CPO and any person acting as a CPO or CTA with respect to a commodity pool must be registered with the CFTC and as a member of the National Futures Association (the "NFA"). Absent an applicable exemption, a registered CPO or CTA must generally provide investors with a "disclosure document" in compliance with the CFTC Rules and the requirements of the NFA, and must comply with a range of ongoing reporting and recordkeeping requirements on registered and certain exempt commodity pool operators. Registration can be time-consuming, expensive and restrictive, and compliance with these additional regulatory requirements could result in substantial, non-recurring expenses, adversely affecting an investment in our securities. If we determine not to comply with such regulations, we may be forced to cease or modify certain of our operations, which could negatively impact our investors.

***We are not subject to legal and regulatory obligations that apply to investment companies such as mutual funds and ETPs, or to obligations applicable to investment advisers.***

Mutual funds, ETPs and their directors and management are subject to extensive regulation as "investment companies" and "investment advisers" under U.S. federal and state law; this regulation is intended for the benefit and protection of investors. We do not currently comply with and do not intend to voluntarily comply with these laws and regulations. Consequently, our stockholders do not have the regulatory protections provided to stockholders in registered and regulated investment companies, which, for example, require investment companies to have a certain percentage of disinterested directors and regulate the relationship between the investment company and certain of its affiliates.

This means, among other things, that the execution of or changes to our Zcash treasury strategy, our use of leverage, the manner in which our ZEC is custodied, our ability to engage in transactions with affiliated parties and our operating and investment activities generally are not subject to the extensive legal and regulatory requirements and prohibitions that apply to investment companies and investment advisers. Consequently, our Board has broad discretion over the investment, leverage and cash

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

management policies it authorizes, whether in respect of our ZEC holdings or other activities we may pursue and has the power to change our current policies, including our strategy of acquiring and holding ZEC.

***Changes in regulatory interpretations could require us to register as a money services business or money transmitter, leading to increased compliance costs or operational shutdowns.***

The regulatory regime for digital assets in the U.S. and elsewhere is uncertain. We may be unable to effectively react to proposed legislation and regulation of digital assets, which could adversely affect our business.

The Financial Crimes Enforcement Network, a division of the U.S. Treasury Department ("FinCEN"), regulates providers of certain services with respect to "convertible virtual currency," including ZEC. Businesses engaged in the transfer of convertible virtual currencies are subject to registration and licensure requirements at the U.S. federal level and also under U.S. state laws. There is a risk that if we decide to provide staking services to third parties, FinCEN or other regulators could view such services as the provision of money transmission activities subject to regulations.

If regulatory changes or interpretations require us to register as a money services business with FinCEN under the U.S. Bank Secrecy Act, or as a money transmitter under state laws, we may be subject to extensive regulatory requirements, resulting in significant compliance costs and operational burdens. In such a case, we may incur extraordinary expenses to meet these requirements or, alternatively, may determine that continued operations are not viable. If we decide to cease certain operations in response to new regulatory obligations, such actions could occur at a time that is unfavorable to investors.

Multiple states have implemented or proposed regulatory frameworks for digital asset businesses. Compliance with such state-specific regulations may increase costs or impact our business operations. Further, if we or our service providers are unable to comply with evolving federal or state regulations, we may be forced to dissolve or liquidate certain operations, which could materially impact our investors.

***The availability of spot ETPs for digital assets may adversely affect the market price of our listed securities.***

Although Bitcoin and other digital assets such as Zcash have experienced a surge of investor attention since Bitcoin was invented in 2008, until recently investors in the United States had limited means to gain direct exposure to digital assets through traditional investment channels, and instead generally were only able to hold digital assets through "hosted" wallets provided by digital asset service providers or through "unhosted" wallets that expose the investor to risks associated with loss or hacking of their private keys. Given the relative novelty of digital assets, general lack of familiarity with the processes needed to hold digital assets directly, as well as the potential reluctance of financial planners and advisers to recommend direct digital asset holdings to their retail customers because of the manner in which such holdings are custodied, some investors have sought exposure to digital assets through investment vehicles that issue shares representing fractional undivided interests in their underlying digital asset holdings.

On January 10, 2024, the SEC approved the listing and trading of spot Bitcoin ETPs, the shares of which can be sold in public offerings and are traded on U.S. national securities exchanges. The SEC has also approved spot ETPs for Ethereum and other digital assets. The listing and trading of spot ETPs for digital assets offers investors another alternative to gain exposure to digital assets, which could result in a decline in the price of our listed securities relative to the value of our digital assets.

Although we are an operating company, and we believe we offer a different value proposition than an investment vehicle such as a spot digital asset ETP, investors may nevertheless view our securities as an alternative to an investment in an ETP, and choose to purchase shares of an ETP instead of our securities. They may do so for a variety of reasons, including if they believe that ETPs offer a "pure play" exposure to digital assets that is generally not subject to federal income tax at the entity level as we are, or the other risk factors applicable to an operating business, such as ours. Additionally, unlike spot digital asset ETPs, we (i) do not seek for our common stock to track the value of the underlying digital assets we hold before payment of expenses and liabilities, (ii) may not benefit from various exemptions and relief under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, including Regulation M, and other securities laws, which enable ETPs to continuously align the value of their shares to the price of the underlying assets they hold through share creation and redemption, (iii) are a Delaware corporation rather than a statutory trust, and do not operate pursuant to a trust agreement that would require us to pursue one or more stated investment objectives, and (iv) are not required to provide daily transparency as to our digital asset holdings or our net asset value. Based on how we are viewed in the market relative to ETPs, and other vehicles which offer economic exposure to digital assets, such as futures ETPs, leveraged futures ETPs and similar vehicles offered on international exchanges, any premium or discount in our common stock relative to the value of our digital asset holdings may increase or decrease in different market conditions.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

As a result of the foregoing factors, availability of spot ETPs for Zcash and other digital assets could have a material adverse effect on the market price of our listed securities.

***The emergence or growth of other digital assets, including those with significant private or public sector backing, could have a negative impact on the price of digital assets we hold and adversely affect our business.***

The emergence or growth of digital assets other than those we may hold could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition. There are numerous alternative digital assets and many entities, including consortia and financial institutions, that are researching and investing resources into private or permissioned blockchain platforms or digital assets. For example, some blockchain networks utilize proof-of-work mining, while others use a "proof-of-stake" mechanism for validating transactions that requires significantly less computing power than proof-of-work mining. If the mechanisms for validating transactions in alternative digital assets are perceived as superior to the mechanisms used by the digital assets in which we invest, those alternative digital assets could gain market share.

Other alternative digital assets could include "stablecoins," which are designed to maintain a constant price because of, for instance, their issuers' promise to hold high-quality liquid assets (such as U.S. dollar deposits and short-term U.S. treasury securities) equal to the total value of stablecoins in circulation. Stablecoins have grown rapidly as an alternative to other digital assets as a medium of exchange and store of value, particularly on digital asset trading platforms.

Additionally, central banks in some countries have started to introduce digital forms of legal tender. For example, China's Central Bank Digital Currency ("CBDC") project was made available to consumers in January 2022, and governments including the United States, the United Kingdom, the European Union and Israel have discussed the potential creation of new CBDCs. Whether or not they incorporate blockchain or similar technology, CBDCs, as legal tender in the issuing jurisdiction, could also compete with, or replace, other digital assets as a medium of exchange or store of value. As a result, the emergence or growth of these or other digital assets could cause the market price of digital assets we hold to decrease, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

***Although we currently are not considered to be a "controlled company" under Nasdaq corporate governance rules, we may in the future become a controlled company due to the concentration of voting power among Winklevoss Capital and their affiliates.***

A "controlled company" pursuant to the Nasdaq corporate governance rules is a company of which more than 50% of the voting power is held by an individual, group, or another company. Winklevoss Capital beneficially owns 19.9% of our outstanding shares of common stock, which excludes (i) an additional 71,647,916 shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of Pre-Funded Warrants and (ii) 62,799,284 shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Common Warrants, full exercise of which is dependent upon, amongst other things, the shareholder approval of the potential issuance of securities in excess of the Nasdaq limitations. Although we currently are not considered to be a "controlled company" under the Nasdaq corporate governance rules, we may in the future become a controlled company if such shares are issued. In the event that Winklevoss Capital acquires more than 50% of the voting power of the Company, we may in the future be able to rely on the "controlled company" exemptions under the Nasdaq corporate governance rules due to this concentration of voting power and the ability of Winklevoss Capital and its affiliates to act as a group. If we were a controlled company, we would be eligible, and could elect, not to comply with certain of the Nasdaq corporate governance standards. Such standards include the requirement that a majority of our directors are independent directors, subject to certain phase-in periods, and the requirement that our compensation, nominating and governance committee consist entirely of independent directors. In such a case, if the interests of our stockholders differ from Winklevoss Capital, including as a result of Winklevoss Capital's affiliation with Gemini, our stockholders would not have the same protection afforded to stockholders of companies that are subject to all of the Nasdaq corporate governance standards, and the ability of our independent directors to influence our business policies and corporate matters may be reduced.

#### Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
None.

#### Item 3. Defaults Upon Senior Securities
None.

#### Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures

#### Item 5. Other Information
(b) Lead Investor Agreement

Pursuant to the terms of the Lead Investor Agreement (as defined herein), the Company has granted Winklevoss Capital, as Lead Investor, the right to nominate two directors to the Board (the "Investor Designees"), one of whom shall act as chair of the Board. For so long as the Lead Investor continues to beneficially own at least 16.7% of the Common Stock, the Lead Investor shall have the right to designate two Investor Designees, one of whom shall also be chair of the Board, and for so long as the Lead Investor continues to beneficially own at least 8.33% but less than 16.7% of the Common Stock, the Lead Investor shall have the right to designate one Investor Designee, who shall also be the chair of the Board. The Company has agreed to use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Investor Designees to be elected to the Board (including recommending that the Company's stockholders vote in favor of the election of the Investor Designees). The Lead Investor Agreement also contains customary representations and warranties, confidentiality provisions and limitations on liability.

(c) Rule 10b5-1 Trading Plan

During the three months ended September 30, 2025, no director or officer of the Company adopted or terminated a "Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement" or "non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement," as each term is defined in Item 408(a) of Regulation S-K.

**AMENDED AND RESTATED BYLAWS**

**OF**

**CYPHERPUNK TECHNOLOGIES INC.**

**Article I —CORPORATE OFFICES**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.1 REGISTERED OFFICE.

The registered office of Cypherpunk Technologies Inc. (the "*Corporation*") shall be fixed in the Corporation's certificate of incorporation, as the same may be amended or restated from time to time (the "*Certificate of Incorporation*").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.2 OTHER OFFICES.

The Corporation's board of directors (the "*Board*") may at any time establish other offices at any place or places where the Corporation is qualified to do business.

**Article II —MEETINGS OF STOCKHOLDERS**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.1 PLACE OF MEETINGS.

Meetings of stockholders shall be held at any place, within or outside the State of Delaware, designated by the Board. The Board may, in its sole discretion, determine that a meeting of stockholders shall not be held at any place, but may instead be held solely by means of remote communication as authorized by the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the "*DGCL*"). In the absence of any such designation or determination, stockholders' meetings shall be held at the Corporation's principal executive office.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.2 ANNUAL MEETING.

The Board shall designate the date and time of the annual meeting. At the annual meeting, directors shall be elected and other proper business properly brought before the meeting in accordance with Section 2.4 of these bylaws may be transacted. Written notice of the annual meeting shall be provided in accordance with Section 2.6 of these bylaws.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.3 SPECIAL MEETING.

Unless otherwise prescribed by law or by the Certificate of Incorporation, a special meeting of the stockholders may be called at any time by the Board, chairperson of the Board, chief executive officer or president (in the absence of a chief executive officer), but such special meetings may not be called by any other person or persons.

No business may be transacted at such special meeting other than the business specified in such notice to stockholders. Nothing contained in this paragraph of this Section 2.3 shall be construed as limiting, fixing, or affecting the time when a meeting of stockholders called by action of the Board may be held.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.4 ADVANCE NOTICE PROCEDURES FOR BUSINESS BROUGHT BEFORE A MEETING.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)At an annual meeting of the stockholders, only such business shall be conducted as shall have been properly brought before the meeting. To be properly brought before an annual meeting, business must be (i) brought before the meeting by the Corporation and specified in the notice of meeting given by or at the direction of the Board, (ii) brought before the meeting by or at the direction of the Board or (iii) otherwise properly brought before the meeting by a stockholder who (A) was a stockholder of record of the Corporation (and, with respect to any beneficial owner, if different, on whose behalf such business is proposed, only if such beneficial owner was the beneficial owner of shares of the Corporation) both at the time of giving the notice provided for in this Section 2.4 and at the time of the meeting, (B) is entitled to vote at the meeting and (C) has complied with this Section 2.4 as to such business. Except for proposals properly made in accordance with Rule 14a-8 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (as so amended and inclusive of such rules and regulations, the "*Exchange Act*"), and included in the notice of meeting given by or at the direction of the Board, the foregoing clause (iii) shall be the exclusive means for a stockholder to propose business to be brought before an annual meeting of the stockholders. Stockholders shall not be permitted to propose business to be brought before a special meeting of the stockholders, and the only matters that may be brought before a special meeting are the matters specified in the notice of meeting given by or at the direction of the person calling the meeting pursuant to Section 2.3 of these bylaws. Stockholders seeking to nominate persons for election to the Board must comply with Section 2.5 of these bylaws, and this Section 2.4 shall not be applicable to nominations except as expressly provided in Section 2.5 of these bylaws.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)Without qualification, for business to be properly brought before an annual meeting by a stockholder, the stockholder must (i) provide Timely Notice (as defined below) thereof in writing and in proper form to the secretary of the Corporation and (ii) provide any updates or supplements to such notice at the times and in the forms required by this Section 2.4. To be timely, a stockholder's notice must be delivered to, or mailed and received at, the principal executive offices of the Corporation not less than ninety (90) days nor more than one hundred twenty (120) days prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year's annual meeting; *provided*, *however*, that (x) if the date of the annual meeting is more than thirty (30) days before or more than sixty (60) days after such anniversary date or (y) with respect to the first annual meeting held after the Company's initial public offering of its shares pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-4, notice by the stockholder to be timely must be so delivered, or mailed and received, not earlier than the one hundred twentieth (120th) day prior to such annual meeting and not later than the ninetieth (90th) day prior to such annual meeting or, if later, the tenth (10th) day following the day on which public disclosure of the date of such annual meeting was first made (such notice within such time periods, "*Timely Notice*"). In no event shall any adjournment or postponement of an annual meeting or the announcement thereof commence a new time period for the giving of Timely Notice as described above.

Except to the extent inconsistent with such rules and regulations as adopted by the Board, the person presiding over any meeting of stockholders shall have the right and authority to convene and (for any or no reason) to recess and/or adjourn the meeting, to prescribe such rules, regulations and procedures (which need not be in writing) and to do all such acts as, in the judgment of such presiding person, are appropriate for the proper conduct of the meeting. Such rules, regulations or procedures, whether adopted by the Board or prescribed by the presiding person of the meeting, may include, without limitation, the following: (a) the establishment of an agenda or order of business for the meeting; (b) rules and procedures for maintaining order at the meeting and the safety of those present (including, without limitation, rules and procedures for removal of disruptive persons from the meeting); (c) limitations on attendance at or participation in the meeting to stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting, their duly authorized and constituted proxies or such other persons as the presiding person of the meeting shall determine; (d) restrictions on entry to the meeting after the time fixed for the commencement thereof; and (e) limitations on the time allotted to questions or comments by participants. The presiding person at any meeting of stockholders, in addition to making any other determinations that may be appropriate to the conduct of the meeting (including, without limitation, determinations with respect to the administration and/or interpretation of any of the rules, regulations or procedures of the meeting, whether adopted by the Board or prescribed by the person presiding over the meeting), shall, if the facts warrant, determine and declare to the meeting that a matter or business was not properly brought before the meeting and if such presiding person should so determine, such presiding person shall so declare to the meeting and any such matter or business not properly brought before the meeting shall not be transacted or considered. Unless and to the extent determined by the Board or the person presiding over the meeting, meetings of stockholders shall not be required to be held in accordance with the rules of parliamentary procedure.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.11 VOTING.

The stockholders entitled to vote at any meeting of stockholders shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.13 of these bylaws, subject to Section 217 (relating to voting rights of fiduciaries, pledgors and joint owners of stock) and Section 218 (relating to voting trusts and other voting agreements) of the DGCL.

Except as may be otherwise provided in the certificate of incorporation or these bylaws, each stockholder shall be entitled to one (1) vote for each share of capital stock held by such stockholder.

At all duly called or convened meetings of stockholders, at which a quorum is present, for the election of directors, a plurality of the votes cast shall be sufficient to elect a director. Except

------

as otherwise provided by the certificate of incorporation, these bylaws, the rules or regulations of any stock exchange applicable to the Corporation, or applicable law or pursuant to any regulation applicable to the Corporation or its securities, all other elections and questions presented to the stockholders at a duly called or convened meeting, at which a quorum is present, shall be decided by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority in voting power of the votes cast affirmatively or negatively (excluding abstentions) at the meeting by the holders entitled to vote thereon.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.12 STOCKHOLDER ACTION BY WRITTEN CONSENT WITHOUT A MEETING.

Any action required or permitted to be taken by the stockholders of the Corporation must be effected at a duly called annual or special meeting of stockholders of the Corporation and may not be effected by any consent in writing by such stockholders.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.13 RECORD DATE FOR STOCKHOLDER NOTICE; VOTING.

In order that the Corporation may determine the stockholders entitled to notice of any meeting of stockholders or any adjournment thereof, the Board may fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the Board, and which record date shall, unless otherwise required by law, not be more than sixty (60) nor less than ten (10) days before the date of such meeting. If the Board so fixes a date, such date shall also be the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to vote at such meeting unless the Board determines, at the time it fixes such record date, that a later date on or before the date of the meeting shall be the date for making such determination. If no record date is fixed by the Board, the record date for determining stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall be at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which notice is given, or, if notice is waived, at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which the meeting is held. A determination of stockholders of record entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall apply to any adjournment of the meeting; *provided*, *however*, that the Board may fix a new record date for determination of stockholders entitled to vote at the adjourned meeting, and in such case shall also fix as the record date for stockholders entitled to notice of such adjourned meeting the same or an earlier date as that fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to vote in accordance herewith at the adjourned meeting.

In order that the Corporation may determine the stockholders entitled to receive payment of any dividend or other distribution or allotment of any rights, or entitled to exercise any rights in respect of any change, conversion or exchange of stock or for the purpose of any other lawful action, the Board may fix a record date, which shall not be more than sixty (60) days prior to such other action. If no such record date is fixed, the record date for determining stockholders for any such purpose shall be at the close of business on the day on which the Board adopts the resolution relating thereto.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.14 PROXIES.

Each stockholder entitled to vote at a meeting of stockholders may authorize another person or persons to act for such stockholder by proxy authorized by an instrument in writing or by a transmission permitted by law filed in accordance with the procedure established for the meeting,

------

but no such proxy shall be voted or acted upon after three (3) years from its date, unless the proxy provides for a longer period. The revocability of a proxy that states on its face that it is irrevocable shall be governed by the provisions of Section 212 of the DGCL. A proxy may be in the form of a telegram, cablegram or other means of electronic transmission which sets forth or is submitted with information from which it can be determined that the telegram, cablegram or other means of electronic transmission was authorized by the stockholder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.15 LIST OF STOCKHOLDERS ENTITLED TO VOTE.

The officer who has charge of the stock ledger of the Corporation shall prepare and make, at least ten (10) days before every meeting of stockholders, a complete list of the stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting (*provided*, *however*, if the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to vote is less than ten (10) days before the date of the meeting, the list shall reflect the stockholders entitled to vote as of the tenth day before the date of the meeting), arranged in alphabetical order, and showing the address of each stockholder and the number of shares registered in the name of each stockholder. The Corporation shall not be required to include electronic mail addresses or other electronic contact information on such list. Such list shall be open to the examination of any stockholder, for any purpose germane to the meeting for a period of at least ten (10) days prior to the meeting: (a) on a reasonably accessible electronic network, provided that the information required to gain access to such list is provided with the notice of the meeting, or (b) during ordinary business hours, at the Corporation's principal executive office. In the event that the Corporation determines to make the list available on an electronic network, the Corporation may take reasonable steps to ensure that such information is available only to stockholders of the Corporation. If the meeting is to be held at a place, then the list shall be produced and kept at the time and place of the meeting during the whole time thereof, and may be inspected by any stockholder who is present. If the meeting is to be held solely by means of remote communication, then the list shall also be open to the examination of any stockholder during the whole time of the meeting on a reasonably accessible electronic network, and the information required to access such list shall be provided with the notice of the meeting. Except as otherwise provided by law, the stock ledger shall be the only evidence as to the identity of the stockholders entitled to vote in person or by proxy and the number of shares held by each of them, and as to the stockholders entitled to examine the list of stockholders.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.16 POSTPONEMENT AND CANCELLATION OF MEETING.

Any previously scheduled annual or special meeting of the stockholders may be postponed, and any previously scheduled annual or special meeting of the stockholders may be canceled, by resolution of the Board upon public notice given prior to the time previously scheduled for such meeting.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.17 INSPECTORS OF ELECTION.

Before any meeting of stockholders, the Board shall appoint an inspector or inspectors of election to act at the meeting or its adjournment or postponement and make a written report thereof. The number of inspectors shall be either one (1) or three (3). If any person appointed as inspector fails to appear or fails or refuses to act, then the chairperson of the meeting may, and upon the request of any stockholder or a stockholder's proxy shall, appoint a person to fill that vacancy.

------

Unless otherwise required by law, inspectors may be officers, employees or agents of the Corporation. Such inspectors shall have the duties prescribed by law and shall take charge of the polls and, when the vote is completed, shall make a certificate of the result of the vote taken and of such other facts as may be required by law. The inspectors of election shall perform their duties impartially, in good faith, to the best of their ability and as expeditiously as is practical. If there are three (3) inspectors of election, the decision, act or certificate of a majority is effective in all respects as the decision, act or certificate of all. Any report or certificate made by the inspectors of election is prima facie evidence of the facts stated therein.

**Article III —DIRECTORS**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.1 POWERS.

Subject to the provisions of the DGCL and any limitations in the certificate of incorporation relating to action required to be approved by the stockholders or by the outstanding shares, the business and affairs of the Corporation shall be managed and all corporate powers shall be exercised by or under the direction of the Board.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.2 NUMBER OF DIRECTORS.

The authorized number of directors shall be determined from time to time by resolution of the Board, provided the Board shall consist of at least one (1) member. No reduction of the authorized number of directors shall have the effect of removing any director before that director's term of office expires.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.3 ELECTION, QUALIFICATION AND TERM OF OFFICE OF DIRECTORS.

Except as provided in Section 3.4 of these bylaws, each director, including, without limitation, a director elected to fill a vacancy, shall hold office until the expiration of the term for which elected and until such director's successor is elected and qualified or until such director's earlier death, resignation or removal. Directors need not be stockholders unless so required by the certificate of incorporation or these bylaws. The Corporation may also have, at the discretion of the Board, a chairperson of the Board and a vice chairperson of the Board. The certificate of incorporation or these bylaws may prescribe other qualifications for directors.

If so provided in the certificate of incorporation, the directors of the Corporation shall be divided into three (3) classes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.4 RESIGNATION AND VACANCIES.

Any director of the Corporation may resign at any time, by giving written notice to the chairperson of the Board of Directors, the Corporation's chief executive officer, president or secretary. Such resignation shall take effect at the time therein specified or, if no time is specified, immediately; and, unless otherwise specified in such notice, the acceptance of such resignation shall not be necessary to make it effective. When one or more directors so resigns and the resignation is effective at a future date, a majority of the directors then in office, including those who have so resigned, shall have power to fill such vacancy or vacancies, the vote thereon to take

------

effect when such resignation or resignations shall become effective, and each director so chosen shall hold office as provided in this section in the filling of other vacancies.

Unless otherwise provided in the certificate of incorporation or these bylaws, vacancies and newly created directorships resulting from any increase in the authorized number of directors shall, unless the Board determines by resolution that any such vacancies or newly created directorships shall be filled by stockholders, be filled only by a majority of the directors then in office, although less than a quorum, or by a sole remaining director. Any director elected in accordance with the preceding sentence shall hold office for the remainder of the full term of the director for which the vacancy was created or occurred and until such director's successor shall have been elected and qualified. A vacancy in the Board shall be deemed to exist under these bylaws in the case of the death, removal or resignation of any director.

Unless otherwise restricted by the certificate of incorporation or these bylaws, members of the Board, or any committee designated by the Board, may participate in a meeting of the Board, or any committee, by means of conference telephone or other communications equipment by means of which all persons participating in the meeting can hear each other, and such participation in a meeting pursuant to this bylaw shall constitute presence in person at the meeting.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.6 REGULAR MEETINGS.

Regular meetings of the Board may be held without notice at such time and at such place as shall from time to time be determined by the Board; *provided* that any director who is absent when such determination is made shall be given notice of the determination. A regular meeting of the Board may be held without notice immediately after and at the same place as the annual meeting of stockholders.

Such filing shall be in paper form if the minutes are maintained in paper form and shall be in electronic form if the minutes are maintained in electronic form.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.10 FEES AND COMPENSATION OF DIRECTORS.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.1 EXECUTION OF CORPORATE CONTRACTS AND INSTRUMENTS.

The Board, except as otherwise provided in these bylaws, may authorize any officer or officers, or agent or agents, to enter into any contract or execute any instrument in the name of and on behalf of the Corporation; such authority may be general or confined to specific instances. Unless so authorized or ratified by the Board or within the agency power of an officer, no officer, agent or employee shall have any power or authority to bind the Corporation by any contract or engagement or to pledge its credit or to render it liable for any purpose or for any amount.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.2 STOCK CERTIFICATES; PARTLY PAID SHARES.

------

vice-chairperson of the Board, or the president or vice-president, and by the treasurer or an assistant treasurer, or the secretary or an assistant secretary of the Corporation representing the number of shares registered in certificate form. Any or all of the signatures on the certificate may be a facsimile. In case any officer, transfer agent or registrar who has signed or whose facsimile signature has been placed upon a certificate has ceased to be such officer, transfer agent or registrar before such certificate is issued, it may be issued by the Corporation with the same effect as if he were such officer, transfer agent or registrar at the date of issue.

The Corporation may issue the whole or any part of its shares as partly paid and subject to call for the remainder of the consideration to be paid therefor. Upon the face or back of each stock certificate issued to represent any such partly paid shares, or upon the books and records of the Corporation in the case of uncertificated partly paid shares, the total amount of the consideration to be paid therefor and the amount paid thereon shall be stated. Upon the declaration of any dividend on fully paid shares, the Corporation shall declare a dividend upon partly paid shares of the same class, but only upon the basis of the percentage of the consideration actually paid thereon.

If the Corporation is authorized to issue more than one class of stock or more than one series of any class, then the powers, the designations, the preferences and the relative, participating, optional or other special rights of each class of stock or series thereof and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions of such preferences and/or rights shall be set forth in full or summarized on the face or back of the certificate that the Corporation shall issue to represent such class or series of stock; *provided*, *however*, that, except as otherwise provided in Section 202 of the DGCL, in lieu of the foregoing requirements, there may be set forth on the face or back of the certificate that the Corporation shall issue to represent such class or series of stock a statement that the Corporation will furnish without charge to each stockholder who so requests the powers, the designations, the preferences and the relative, participating, optional or other special rights of each class of stock or series thereof and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions of such preferences and/or rights.

Except as provided in this Section 7.4, no new certificates for shares shall be issued to replace a previously issued certificate unless the latter is surrendered to the Corporation and cancelled at the same time. The Corporation may issue a new certificate of stock or uncertificated shares in the place of any certificate theretofore issued by it, alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed, and the Corporation may require the owner of the lost, stolen or destroyed certificate, or such owner's legal representative, to give the Corporation a bond sufficient to indemnify it against any claim that may be made against it on account of the alleged loss, theft or destruction of any such certificate or the issuance of such new certificate or uncertificated shares.

The Board, subject to any restrictions contained in either (a) the DGCL or (b) the certificate of incorporation, may declare and pay dividends upon the shares of its capital stock. Dividends may be paid in cash, in property or in shares of the Corporation's capital stock.

The Board may set apart out of any of the funds of the Corporation available for dividends a reserve or reserves for any proper purpose and may abolish any such reserve.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.7 FISCAL YEAR.

No transfer of stock shall be valid as against the Corporation for any purpose until it shall have been entered in the stock records of the Corporation by an entry showing the names of the persons from and to whom it was transferred.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.10 STOCK TRANSFER AGREEMENTS.

The Corporation shall have power to enter into and perform any agreement with any number of stockholders of any one or more classes of stock of the Corporation to restrict the transfer of shares of stock of the Corporation of any one or more classes owned by such stockholders in any manner not prohibited by the DGCL.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.11 REGISTERED STOCKHOLDERS.

The Corporation:

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)shall be entitled to recognize the exclusive right of a person registered on its books as the owner of shares to receive dividends and to vote as such owner;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)shall be entitled to hold liable for calls and assessments the person registered on its books as the owner of shares; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)shall not be bound to recognize any equitable or other claim to or interest in such share or shares on the part of another person, whether or not it shall have express or other notice thereof, except as otherwise provided by the laws of Delaware.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.12 WAIVER OF NOTICE.

Whenever notice is required to be given under any provision of the DGCL, the certificate of incorporation or these bylaws, a written waiver, signed by the person entitled to notice, or a waiver by electronic transmission by the person entitled to notice, whether before or after the time of the event for which notice is to be given, shall be deemed equivalent to notice. Attendance of a person at a meeting shall constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting, except when the person attends a meeting for the express purpose of objecting at the beginning of the meeting, to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened. Neither the business to be transacted at, nor the purpose of, any regular or special meeting of the stockholders need be specified in any written waiver of notice or any waiver by electronic transmission unless so required by the certificate of incorporation or these bylaws.

**Article VIII —NOTICE BY ELECTRONIC TRANSMISSION**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8.1 NOTICE BY ELECTRONIC TRANSMISSION.

Without limiting the manner by which notice otherwise may be given effectively to stockholders pursuant to the DGCL, the certificate of incorporation or these bylaws, any notice to stockholders given by the Corporation under any provision of the DGCL, the certificate of incorporation or these bylaws shall be effective if given by a form of electronic transmission consented to by the stockholder to whom the notice is given. Any such consent shall be revocable by the stockholder by written notice to the Corporation. Any such consent shall be deemed revoked if:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)the Corporation is unable to deliver by electronic transmission two (2) consecutive notices given by the Corporation in accordance with such consent; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)such inability becomes known to the secretary or an assistant secretary of the Corporation or to the transfer agent, or other person responsible for the giving of notice.

However, the inadvertent failure to treat such inability as a revocation shall not invalidate any meeting or other action.

Any notice given pursuant to the preceding paragraph shall be deemed given:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)if by facsimile telecommunication, when directed to a number at which the stockholder has consented to receive notice;

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)if by electronic mail, when directed to an electronic mail address at which the stockholder has consented to receive notice;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)if by a posting on an electronic network together with separate notice to the stockholder of such specific posting, upon the later of (i) such posting and (ii) the giving of such separate notice; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)if by any other form of electronic transmission, when directed to the stockholder.

An affidavit of the secretary or an assistant secretary of the Corporation or of the transfer agent or other agent of the Corporation that the notice has been given by a form of electronic transmission shall, in the absence of fraud, be prima facie evidence of the facts stated therein.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8.2 DEFINITION OF ELECTRONIC TRANSMISSION.

For the purposes of these bylaws, an "electronic transmission" means any form of communication, not directly involving the physical transmission of paper, that creates a record that may be retained, retrieved and reviewed by a recipient thereof, and that may be directly reproduced in paper form by such a recipient through an automated process.

**Article IX —INDEMNIFICATION AND ADVANCEMENT**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.1 ACTIONS, SUITS AND PROCEEDINGS OTHER THAN BY OR IN THE RIGHT OF THE CORPORATION.

The Corporation shall indemnify each person who was or is a party or threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the Corporation) by reason of the fact that he or she is or was, or has agreed to become, a director or officer of the Corporation, or, while a director or officer of the Corporation, is or was serving, or has agreed to serve, at the request of the Corporation, as a director, officer, partner, employee or trustee of, or in a similar capacity with, another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise (including, without limitation, any employee benefit plan) (all such persons being referred to hereafter as an "*Indemnitee*"), or by reason of any action alleged to have been taken or omitted in such capacity, against all expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys' fees), liabilities, losses, judgments, fines (including, without limitation, excise taxes and penalties arising under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974), and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by or on behalf of Indemnitee in connection with such action, suit or proceeding and any appeal therefrom, if Indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner which Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction or upon a plea of *nolo contendere* or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that Indemnitee did not act in good faith and in a manner which Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful.

------

For purposes of any determination under Sections 9.1 and 9.2 of this Article IX, a person shall be deemed to have acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation, or, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, to have had no reasonable cause to believe such person's conduct was unlawful, if such person's action is based on the records or books of account of the Corporation or another enterprise, or on information supplied to such person by the officers of the Corporation or another enterprise in the course of their duties, or on the advice of legal counsel for the Corporation or another enterprise or on information or records given or reports made to the Corporation or another enterprise by an independent certified public accountant or by an appraiser or other expert selected with reasonable care by the Corporation or another enterprise. The provisions of this paragraph shall not be deemed to be exclusive or to limit in any way the circumstances in which a person may be deemed to have met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in Section 9.1 or Section 9.2 of this Article IX, as the case may be.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.2 ACTIONS OR SUITS BY OR IN THE RIGHT OF THE CORPORATION.

The Corporation shall indemnify any Indemnitee who was or is a party to or threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the Corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that Indemnitee is or was, or has agreed to become, a director or officer of the Corporation, or, while a director or officer of the Corporation, is or was serving, or has agreed to serve, at the request of the Corporation, as a director, officer, partner, employee or trustee of, or in a similar capacity with, another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise (including, without limitation, any employee benefit plan), or by reason of any action alleged to have been taken or omitted in such capacity, against all expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by or on behalf of Indemnitee in connection with such action, suit or proceeding and any appeal therefrom, if Indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner which Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Corporation, except that no indemnification shall be made under this Section 9.2 in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which Indemnitee shall have been adjudged to be liable to the Corporation, unless, and only to the extent, that the Court of Chancery of Delaware or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of such liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, Indemnitee is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys' fees) which the Court of Chancery of Delaware or such other court shall deem proper.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.3 INDEMNIFICATION FOR EXPENSES OF SUCCESSFUL PARTY.

Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Article IX, to the extent that an Indemnitee has been successful, on the merits or otherwise, in defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to in Sections 9.1 and 9.2 of these bylaws, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, or on appeal from any such action, suit or proceeding, Indemnitee shall be indemnified against all expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by or on behalf of Indemnitee in connection therewith. Without limiting the foregoing, if any action, suit or proceeding is disposed of, on the merits or otherwise (including, without limitation, a disposition without prejudice), without (a) the disposition being adverse to Indemnitee, (b) an adjudication that Indemnitee was liable to the Corporation, (c) a plea of guilty or *nolo contendere* by

------

Indemnitee, (d) an adjudication that Indemnitee did not act in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation and (e) with respect to any criminal proceeding, an adjudication that Indemnitee had reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful, Indemnitee shall be considered for the purposes hereof to have been wholly successful with respect thereto.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.4 NOTIFICATION AND DEFENSE OF CLAIM.

As a condition precedent to an Indemnitee's right to be indemnified, such Indemnitee must notify the Corporation in writing as soon as practicable of any action, suit, proceeding or investigation involving such Indemnitee for which indemnity will or could be sought. With respect to any action, suit, proceeding or investigation of which the Corporation is so notified, the Corporation will be entitled to participate therein at its own expense and/or to assume the defense thereof at its own expense, with legal counsel reasonably acceptable to Indemnitee. After notice from the Corporation to Indemnitee of its election so to assume such defense, the Corporation shall not be liable to Indemnitee for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by Indemnitee in connection with such action, suit, proceeding or investigation, other than as provided below in this Section 9.4. Indemnitee shall have the right to employ his or her own counsel in connection with such action, suit, proceeding or investigation, but the fees and expenses of such counsel incurred after notice from the Corporation of its assumption of the defense thereof shall be at the expense of Indemnitee unless (a) the employment of counsel by Indemnitee has been authorized by the Corporation, (b) counsel to Indemnitee shall have reasonably concluded that there may be a conflict of interest or position on any significant issue between the Corporation and Indemnitee in the conduct of the defense of such action, suit, proceeding or investigation or (c) the Corporation shall not in fact have employed counsel to assume the defense of such action, suit, proceeding or investigation, in each of which cases the fees and expenses of counsel for Indemnitee shall be at the expense of the Corporation, except as otherwise expressly provided by this Article IX. The Corporation shall not be entitled, without the consent of Indemnitee, to assume the defense of any claim brought by or in the right of the Corporation or as to which counsel for Indemnitee shall have reasonably made the conclusion provided for in clause (b) above. The Corporation shall not be required to indemnify Indemnitee under this Article IX for any amounts paid in settlement of any action, suit, proceeding or investigation effected without its written consent. The Corporation shall not settle any action, suit, proceeding or investigation in any manner which would impose any penalty or limitation on Indemnitee without Indemnitee's written consent. Neither the Corporation nor Indemnitee will unreasonably withhold or delay its consent to any proposed settlement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.5 ADVANCE OF EXPENSES.

Subject to the provisions of Sections 9.4 and 9.6 of these bylaws, in the event of any threatened or pending action, suit, proceeding or investigation of which the Corporation receives notice under this Article IX, any expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys' fees) incurred by or on behalf of Indemnitee in defending an action, suit, proceeding or investigation or any appeal therefrom shall be paid by the Corporation in advance of the final disposition of such matter; *provided*, *however*, that the payment of such expenses incurred by or on behalf of Indemnitee in advance of the final disposition of such matter shall be made only upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of Indemnitee to repay all amounts so advanced in the event that it shall ultimately

------

be determined by final judicial decision from which there is no further right to appeal that Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified by the Corporation as authorized in this Article IX; and *provided further* that no such advancement of expenses shall be made under this Article IX if it is determined (in the manner described in Section 9.6 of these bylaws) that (a) Indemnitee did not act in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Corporation, or (b) with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, Indemnitee had reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful. Such undertaking shall be accepted without reference to the financial ability of Indemnitee to make such repayment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.6 PROCEDURE FOR INDEMNIFICATION AND ADVANCEMENT OF EXPENSES.

In order to obtain indemnification or advancement of expenses pursuant to Section 9.1, 9.2, 9.3 or 9.5 of these bylaws, an Indemnitee shall submit to the Corporation a written request. Any such advancement of expenses shall be made promptly, and in any event within 60 days after receipt by the Corporation of the written request of Indemnitee, unless (a) the Corporation has assumed the defense pursuant to Section 9.4 of these bylaws (and none of the circumstances described in Section 9.4 of these bylaws that would nonetheless entitle the Indemnitee to indemnification for the fees and expenses of separate counsel have occurred) or (b) the Corporation determines within such 60-day period that Indemnitee did not meet the applicable standard of conduct set forth in Section 9.1, 9.2 or 9.5 of these bylaws, as the case may be. Any such indemnification, unless ordered by a court, shall be made with respect to requests under Section 9.1 or 9.2 of these bylaws only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination by the Corporation that the indemnification of Indemnitee is proper because Indemnitee has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in Section 9.1 or 9.2 of these bylaws, as the case may be. Such determination shall be made in each instance (a) by a majority vote of the directors of the Corporation consisting of persons who are not at that time parties to the action, suit or proceeding in question ("*disinterested directors*"), whether or not a quorum, (b) by a committee of disinterested directors designated by majority vote of disinterested directors, whether or not a quorum, (c) if there are no disinterested directors, or if the disinterested directors so direct, by independent legal counsel (who may, to the extent permitted by law, be regular legal counsel to the Corporation) in a written opinion or (d) by the stockholders of the Corporation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.7 REMEDIES.

The right to indemnification or advancement of expenses as granted by this Article IX shall be enforceable by Indemnitee in any court of competent jurisdiction. Neither the failure of the Corporation to have made a determination prior to the commencement of such action that indemnification is proper in the circumstances because Indemnitee has met the applicable standard of conduct, nor an actual determination by the Corporation pursuant to Section 9.6 of these bylaws that Indemnitee has not met such applicable standard of conduct, shall be a defense to the action or create a presumption that Indemnitee has not met the applicable standard of conduct. In any suit brought by Indemnitee to enforce a right to indemnification or advancement, or brought by the Corporation to recover an advancement of expenses pursuant to the terms of an undertaking, the Corporation shall have the burden of proving that Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified, or to such advancement of expenses, under this Article IX. Indemnitee's expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys' fees) reasonably incurred in connection with successfully establishing

------

Indemnitee's right to indemnification or advancement, in whole or in part, in any such proceeding shall also be indemnified by the Corporation to the fullest extent permitted by law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in any suit brought by Indemnitee to enforce a right to indemnification hereunder it shall be a defense that the Indemnitee has not met any applicable standard for indemnification set forth in the DGCL.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.8 LIMITATIONS.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article IX, except as set forth in Section 9.7 of these bylaws, the Corporation shall not indemnify an Indemnitee pursuant to this Article IX in connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such Indemnitee unless the initiation thereof was approved by the Board. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article IX, the Corporation shall not indemnify (or advance expenses to) an Indemnitee to the extent such Indemnitee is reimbursed (or advanced expenses) from the proceeds of insurance, and in the event the Corporation makes any indemnification (or advancement) payments to an Indemnitee and such Indemnitee is subsequently reimbursed from the proceeds of insurance, such Indemnitee shall promptly refund indemnification (or advancement) payments to the Corporation to the extent of such insurance reimbursement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.9 SUBSEQUENT AMENDMENT.

No amendment, termination or repeal of this Article IX or of the relevant provisions of the DGCL or any other applicable laws shall adversely affect or diminish in any way the rights of any Indemnitee to indemnification or advancement of expenses under the provisions hereof with respect to any action, suit, proceeding or investigation arising out of or relating to any actions, transactions or facts occurring prior to the final adoption of such amendment, termination or repeal.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.10 OTHER RIGHTS.

The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by this Article IX shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which an Indemnitee seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under any law (common or statutory), agreement or vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in Indemnitee's official capacity and as to action in any other capacity while holding office for the Corporation, and shall continue as to an Indemnitee who has ceased to be a director or officer, and shall inure to the benefit of the estate, heirs, executors and administrators of Indemnitee. Nothing contained in this Article IX shall be deemed to prohibit, and the Corporation is specifically authorized to enter into, agreements with officers and directors providing indemnification and advancement rights and procedures different from those set forth in this Article IX. In addition, the Corporation may, to the extent authorized from time to time by the Board, grant indemnification and advancement rights to other employees or agents of the Corporation or other persons serving the Corporation and such rights may be equivalent to, or greater or less than, those set forth in this Article IX.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.11 PARTIAL INDEMNIFICATION.

If an Indemnitee is entitled under any provision of this Article IX to indemnification by the Corporation for some or a portion of the expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys' fees), liabilities, losses, judgments, fines (including, without limitation, excise taxes and penalties arising

------

under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974) or amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by or on behalf of Indemnitee in connection with any action, suit, proceeding or investigation and any appeal therefrom but not, however, for the total amount thereof, the Corporation shall nevertheless indemnify Indemnitee for the portion of such expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys' fees), liabilities, losses, judgments, fines (including, without limitation, excise taxes and penalties arising under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974) or amounts paid in settlement to which Indemnitee is entitled.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.12 INSURANCE.

The Corporation may purchase and maintain insurance, at its expense, to protect itself and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation or another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise (including, without limitation, any employee benefit plan) against any expense, liability or loss incurred by him or her in any such capacity, or arising out of his or her status as such, whether or not the Corporation would have the power to indemnify such person against such expense, liability or loss under the DGCL.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.13 SAVINGS CLAUSE.

If this Article IX or any portion hereof shall be invalidated on any ground by any court of competent jurisdiction, then the Corporation shall nevertheless indemnify each Indemnitee as to any expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys' fees), liabilities, losses, judgments, fines (including, without limitation, excise taxes and penalties arising under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974) and amounts paid in settlement in connection with any action, suit, proceeding or investigation, whether civil, criminal or administrative, including, without limitation, an action by or in the right of the Corporation, to the fullest extent permitted by any applicable portion of this Article IX that shall not have been invalidated and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.14 DEFINITIONS.

Terms used in this Article IX and defined in Section 145(h) and Section 145(i) of the DGCL shall have the respective meanings assigned to such terms in such Section 145(h) and Section 145(i).

**Article X —AMENDMENTS.**

Subject to the limitations set forth in Section 9.9 of these bylaws or the provisions of the certificate of incorporation, the Board is expressly empowered to adopt, amend or repeal the bylaws of the Corporation. The stockholders also shall have power to adopt, amend or repeal the bylaws of the Corporation; *provided*, *however*, that, in addition to any vote of the holders of any class or series of stock of the Corporation required by law or by the certificate of incorporation, such action by stockholders shall require the affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds in voting power of the outstanding shares of capital stock of the Corporation entitled to vote thereon.
