**Entry into Token Purchase Agreement**

On March 30, 2026, the Company entered into a Digital Asset Purchase and Sale Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement"), with UZX DAO Foundation, an exempt entity incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands (the "Foundation"), and certain holders of units of the UZX Token (the "Sellers"), pursuant to which the Company agreed to purchase from the Sellers aggregate of 30,000,000 units of the UZX Token (the "Sale Token") in consideration for 30,000,000 of the Company's Class A Ordinary Shares (the "Consideration Shares"). The Issuance of the Consideration Shares by the Company will be in reliance upon an applicable exemption from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The transactions contemplated in the Purchase Agreement are expected to close on or before April 7, 2026.

Under the Purchase Agreement, the Sale Token and the Consideration Shares will be subject to lock-up for an initial period of 12 months following the date of the Purchase Agreement. Such lock-up period shall be extended pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement for additional periods of 12 months each, unless the Company and the Foundation, on the premise of safeguarding the best interest of all Sellers, agree to remove the lock-up restrictions.

In addition, pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company will cause all of the Sale Tokens to be staked for a period of 12 months following the Closing Date (the "First Staking Period") in accordance with the then-current staking protocol applicable to the Tokens and in a commercially reasonable manner consistent with prudent treasury management and protocol requirements. The staked Tokens shall accrue rewards at an annualized rate of 5% for the First Staking Period. If the lock-up periods for the Sale Token and the Consideration Shares are extended, the Company shall cause all the Sale Tokens and Interest Tokens, as defined in the Purchase Agreement, if any, to be staked for additional periods, as applicable, of 12 months for each period. The annualized rate for each of these additional staking periods of 12 months will be 6.25%.

**ARTICLE V**

**STAKING**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**5.1** Effective upon the Closing, Company shall cause all of the Sale Tokens to be staked for a period of twelve (12) months following the Closing Date (the "First Staking Period") in accordance with the then-current staking protocol applicable to the Tokens and in a commercially reasonable manner consistent with prudent treasury management and protocol requirements. Staking shall be conducted either directly from Company-controlled wallets or through a reputable staking services provider reasonably acceptable to Sellers and customarily engaged for such services, which shall not obtain ownership of or any right to rehypothecate, encumber, or otherwise use the Tokens other than to perform staking under Company's written instructions. The Company will implement validator diversification and commercially reasonable slashing-mitigation practices. The staked Tokens shall accrue rewards at an annualized rate of five percent (5%) for the First Staking Period (the reward to be issued to the Company shall be referred herein as the "Interest Token"), as measured by the applicable protocol's reward schedule and subject to customary compounding or distribution mechanics of such protocol.

The annualized rate for each of these Additional Staking Periods of twelve (12) months shall be six and twenty-five hundredths' percent (6.25%), as measured by the applicable protocol's reward schedule and subject to customary compounding or distribution mechanics of such protocol. The Interest Token for the Additional Staking Periods shall be issued or provided by the Foundation and such obligation shall be expressed in the staking protocol.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**5.3** All Interest Tokens issued pursuant to the agreed annualized accrued rewards rate shall automatically enter the same Lock-Up Period, together with the Sale Tokens, if it is determined by the Foundation and the Company that such Lock-Up Period shall be extended.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**5.4** if the Sale Token Lock-Up Period and the Consideration Share Lock-Up Period are not extended or are being removed in accordance with Article III of this Agreement, then the Company shall be no longer obligated to commence or maintain any additional staking.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**5.5** The Foundation shall maintain, support, and continue to develop the UZX blockchain protocol consistent with industry standards during any Lock-Up Period, and shall ensure that the staking protocol remains operational and capable of providing the contemplated staking rewards during any such period.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**5.6** The Foundation shall not unilaterally modify the staking protocol or token economics in any manner that would reduce the staking rewards payable to the Company or otherwise materially adversely affect the Company's rights under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Company.
