#### AMENDED NOTICE OF ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS TO BE HELD ON MAY 21, 2026
Notice is hereby given that the 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders of Solana Company (the "Company," "we" or "us") will be held on Thursday, May 21, 2026, at 9:00 a.m. Eastern Time, as a virtual meeting at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/HSDT2026. This amended notice replaces the notice previously filed by us with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 10, 2026 and mailed to our stockholders of record in connection with the solicitation of proxies by our board of directors at the Annual Meeting (as defined below).

At the 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders or any adjournment or postponement thereof (the "Annual Meeting"), you will be asked to consider and vote upon the following proposals:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; • Proposal 1 — To elect five directors named in the proxy statement of the Company, filed with the Securities Exchange Commission on April 10, 2026 (the "proxy statement"), each to serve for a one-year term until the 2027 annual meeting of stockholders and until his or her successor is duly elected and qualified or until his or her earlier death, resignation or removal;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; • Proposal 2 — To ratify the appointment of CBIZ CPAs P.C., as our independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2026; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; • Proposal 3 — To elect two additional directors named in the accompanying proxy supplement, each to serve for a one-year term until the 2027 annual meeting of stockholders and until his successor is duly elected and qualified and until his earlier death, resignation or removal.

We expect to conduct any other business properly brought before the Annual Meeting.

Through the website above, you will be able to attend the Annual Meeting online, vote electronically, view the list of stockholders entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting and submit your questions during the Annual Meeting. Your attention is directed to the proxy statement and accompanying proxy supplement, where details regarding how to attend the Annual Meeting online and the foregoing items of business are more fully described. The Board of Directors previously fixed the close of business on April 1, 2026 as the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Annual Meeting. Only stockholders of record at the close of business on April 1, 2026 are entitled to receive notice of, and to vote at, the Annual Meeting and any adjournment thereof.

Our Board of Directors unanimously recommends that you vote **FOR** the election of each director nominee, **FOR** Proposal 2 and **FOR** the election of each additional director nominee.

**Your vote is extremely important, regardless of the number of shares of Class A common stock you own**. Whether or not you plan to virtually attend the Annual Meeting, you are respectfully requested by the Board of Directors to promptly submit your proxy by telephone or over the Internet in accordance with the instructions on the proxy card or voting instruction card or, if you received a printed proxy card by mail, sign, date and return the proxy card or voting instruction card. If you received this notice and the proxy statement and/or accompanying proxy supplement in the mail, a return envelope is enclosed for your convenience. This will not prevent you from voting at the Annual Meeting since you may revoke your proxy at any time prior to the Annual Meeting or vote electronically at the Annual Meeting, but submitting your proxy will help to ensure the presence of a quorum at the Annual Meeting and avoid added proxy solicitation costs.

#### SUPPLEMENT TO PROXY STATEMENT

#### FOR THE 2026 ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS
This supplement ("Supplement") relates to the notice of annual meeting of stockholders and proxy statement (the "Proxy Statement") of Solana Company, a Delaware corporation (sometimes referred to as "the Company," "we" and "our"), previously filed by us with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 10, 2026 and furnished to our stockholders in connection with the solicitation of proxies by our board of directors (the "Board") for the 2026 annual meeting of stockholders to be held on May 21, 2026, or any postponement or adjournment thereof (the "Annual Meeting").

Subsequent to the filing of the Proxy Statement, as disclosed on the Company Current Report on Form 8-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on April 24, 2026, Sherrie Perkins and Paul Buckman notified the Company of their decision to not stand for re-election as directors when their current terms expire at the Annual Meeting. Additionally, the Board increased the size of the Board from seven to nine members, creating two vacancies on the Board, and appointed Michel Lee and Sergio Mello as directors to fill the newly created vacancies.

This Supplement, dated May 1, 2026, is being made available to our stockholders on or about May 1, 2026, in connection with the solicitation of proxies by the Board for the Annual Meeting. This Supplement, which adds to and amends the Proxy Statement, includes updated information relating to the above-mentioned director transitions and a new proposal to elect two additional directors to the Board, and includes an amended notice and proxy card.

**<u>New Proposal 3 — Election of Additional Directors</u>**. Proposal 3, which has been added to the agenda for the Annual Meeting, proposes that Messrs. Lee and Mello be re-elected at the Annual Meeting, each to serve for a one-year term until the 2027 annual meeting of stockholders and until his successor is dully elected and qualified and until his earlier death, resignation or removal.

 **The amended proxy card or voting instruction form enclosed with this Supplement differs from the proxy card or voting instruction form previously furnished to you with the Proxy Statement dated April 10, 2026. The enclosed proxy card or voting instruction form includes the election of the additional director nominees as a new Proposal 3. If you have already voted, we encourage you to resubmit your vote on all three proposals by submitting the amended proxy card or voting instruction form enclosed with this Supplement or by submitting a proxy by telephone or through the Internet by following the procedures on your amended proxy card or voting instruction form. However, if you return, or have returned, an original proxy card or voting instruction form, your proxy will still remain valid for all of the other proposals and director nominees except Messrs. Lee and Mello because they are not listed as nominees on the original proxy card or voting instruction form, and will be voted at the Annual Meeting unless revoked. PLEASE NOTE THAT IF YOU SUBMIT A NEW PROXY CARD OR VOTING INSTRUCTION FORM, IT WILL REVOKE ALL PRIOR PROXY CARDS OR VOTING INSTRUCTION FORMS, SO IT IS IMPORTANT TO INDICATE YOUR VOTE ON EACH PROPOSAL ON THE NEW PROXY CARD OR VOTING INSTRUCTION FORM.** 

Except for the as supplemented by the information contained herein, including new Proposal 3, and the amended notice and proxy card, this Supplement does not modify, amend, supplement or otherwise affect any matter presented for consideration in the Proxy Statement. This Supplement should be read in conjunction with the Proxy Statement, which contains important additional information. From and after the date of this Supplement, any references to the "Proxy Statement" are to the Proxy Statement as supplemented hereby.

 **Important Notice Regarding the Availability of Proxy Materials for the Solana Company Annual Meeting of Stockholders to be Held on Thursday, May 21, 2026: The Amended Notice of Annual Meeting of Stockholders, proxy statement and accompanying proxy statement and annual report to stockholders are available at www.proxyvote.com.**

<u>Withdrawal of Director Nominees</u> 

Prior to providing their resignation, Sherrie Perkins and Paul Buckman were each a director nominee standing for re-election to the Board as the Annual Meeting, as described in Proposal 1 — Election of Directors. As a result of their resignations, Ms. Perkins and Mr. Buckman will no longer stand for re-election to the Board. The five other director nominees named in Proposal 1 in the Proxy Statement — Joseph Chee, Dane C. Andreeff, Blane Walter, Edward M. Straw and Cosmo Jiang — will continue to stand for re-election at the Annual Meeting. In addition, the two additional directors — Michel Lee and Sergio Mello — named in Proposal 3 in this Supplement, will stand for re-election at the Annual Meeting. In connection with Ms. Perkins' and Mr. Buckman's resignations, the Board approved a decrease in the authorized number of directors on the Board from nine to seven, effective as of immediately prior to the Annual Meeting.

------

#### PROPOSAL 3 — ELECTION OF ADDITIONAL DIRECTORS
On April 23, 2026, the Board increased the size of the Board from seven to nine members, creating two vacancies on the Board and, upon recommendation of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board, appointed each of Michel Lee and Sergio Mello as directors to fill the newly created vacancies, effective immediately. The Board proposed that Messrs. Lee and Mello be re-elected at the Annual Meeting to serve for a one-year term until the 2027 annual meeting of stockholders and until his successor is duly elected and qualified and until his earlier death, resignation or removal.

The following are brief biographies of Messrs. Lee and Mello that include information, as of the date of this Supplement, regarding the specific and particular experience, qualifications, attributes or skills of Messrs. Lee and Mello that led the Board to believe that Messrs. Lee and Mello should serve on the Board. However, each of the members of the Board may have a variety of reasons why he or she believes Messrs. Lee and Mello would be an appropriate nominee for the Board, and these views may differ from the views of other members.
