**INFORMATION ABOUT THE ANNUAL MEETING AND VOTING**

***Why am I receiving these materials?***

The Company is mailing a notice of meeting and internet availability of documents to the last known address of its shareholders. Shareholders wanting a printed, paper version of the documents may request so in writing by contacting the Transfer Agent, Mountain Share Transfer, prior to the meeting date.

Mountain Share Transfer, LLC.

www.mountainsharetransfer.com

2030 Powers Ferry Road SE

Suite # 212

Atlanta, Ga. 30339

These documents are being made available to you in connection with the Company's solicitation of proxies for use at the Annual Meeting. These materials describe the proposals on which the Company would like you to vote and to give you information on these proposals so that you can make an informed decision.

***What is included in these materials?***

These materials include:

· this Proxy Statement for the Annual Meeting;

· the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025, and

· the proxy card or vote instruction form for the Annual Meeting.

 ****

***What is the proxy card?***

The proxy card enables you to appoint OC Kim, our President, as your representative at the Annual Meeting. By completing and returning a proxy card, you are authorizing this individual to vote your shares at the Annual Meeting in accordance with your instructions on the proxy card. This way, your shares will be voted whether or not you attend the Annual Meeting.

 ****

***What is the purpose of the Annual Meeting?***

At our Annual Meeting, stockholders will act upon the matters outlined in the Notice of Annual Meeting on the cover page of this Proxy Statement, including (i) the election of five persons named herein as nominees for directors of the Company to hold office, subject to the provisions of the bylaws of the Company, until the next annual meeting of stockholders and until their successors are duly elected and qualified; (ii) ratification of the appointment of Simon & Edward, LLP as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year 2025; and (iii) such other matters as may properly come before the meeting or any adjournment thereof.

***What constitutes a quorum?***

Holders of a majority of shares of our Common Stock entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting must be present at our Annual Meeting, online or by proxy, to constitute a quorum necessary to conduct the Annual Meeting.

***What is the difference between a stockholder of record and a beneficial owner of shares held in street name?***

Most of our stockholders hold their shares in an account at a brokerage firm, bank or other nominee holder, rather than holding share certificates in their own name. As summarized below, there are some distinctions between shares held of record and those owned beneficially in street name.

*Stockholder of Record*

If, on October 17, 2025, your shares were registered directly in your name with our transfer agent, Mountain Share Transfer, you are considered a stockholder of record with respect to those shares, and the Notice of Annual Meeting and Proxy Statement was sent directly to you by the Company. As the stockholder of record, you have the right to direct the voting of your shares by returning the proxy card to us. Whether or not you plan to attend the online Annual Meeting, please complete, date, sign and return a proxy card to ensure that your vote is counted.

*Beneficial Owner of Shares Held in Street Name*

If, on October 17, 2025, your shares were held in an account at a brokerage firm, bank, broker-dealer, or other nominee holder, then you are considered the beneficial owner of shares held in "street name," and the Notice of Annual Meeting and Proxy Statement was forwarded to you by that organization. The organization holding your account is considered the stockholder of record for purposes of voting at the Annual Meeting. As the beneficial owner, you have the right to direct that organization on how to vote the shares held in your account. However, since you are not the stockholder of record, you may not vote these shares in person at the Annual Meeting unless you receive a valid proxy from the organization.

***How do I vote?***

*Stockholders of Record.* If you are a stockholder of record, you may vote by any of the following methods:

· *By Mail.* You may vote by completing, signing, dating, and returning your proxy card in the pre-addressed, postage-paid envelope provided.

· *Through the Internet.* Go to the website set forth on your proxy card and follow the instructions provided at the website.

· *At the Online Annual Meeting.* You may attend and vote at the online Annual Meeting, following the instructions provided.

· *Other methods*. You may vote by completing, signing, dating, and returning your proxy card via email or facsimile following the instructions set forth on your proxy card.

*Beneficial Owners of Shares Held in Street Name.* If you are a beneficial owner of shares held in street name, you may vote by any of the following methods:

· *By Mail.* You may vote by proxy by filling out the vote instruction form and returning it in the pre-addressed, postage-paid envelope provided.

· *Through the Internet.* If provided to you by the organization that holds your shares, follow the instructions for voting through the Internet.

· *At the Online Meeting .* If you are a beneficial owner of shares held in street name and you wish to vote your shares at the online Annual Meeting, you must obtain a legal proxy from the organization that holds your shares.

 **

 ****

***Abstentions and broker non-votes***

While the inspectors of election will treat shares represented by proxies that reflect abstentions or include "broker non-votes" as shares that are present and entitled to vote for purposes of determining the presence of a quorum, abstentions or "broker non-votes" do not constitute a vote "for" or "against" any matter and thus will be disregarded in any calculation of "votes cast." However, abstentions and "broker non-votes" will have the effect of a negative vote if an item requires the approval of a majority of a quorum or of a specified proportion of all outstanding shares.

Brokers holding shares of record for customers generally are not entitled to vote on "non-routine" matters, unless they receive voting instructions from their customers. The term "uninstructed shares" means shares held by a broker who has not received voting instructions from its customers on a proposal. A "broker non-vote" occurs when a nominee holding uninstructed shares for a beneficial owner does not vote on a particular proposal because the nominee does not have discretionary voting power with respect to that non-routine matter.

***What happens if I do not give specific voting instructions?***

*Stockholders of Record.* If you are a stockholder of record and you:

· indicate when voting on the Internet or by email or facsimile that you wish to vote as recommended by the Board of Directors, or

· sign and return a proxy card without giving specific voting instructions,

then the proxy holder will vote your shares in the manner recommended by the Board of Directors on all matters presented in this proxy statement and as the proxy holders may determine in their discretion with respect to any other matters properly presented for a vote at the Annual Meeting.

*Beneficial Owners of Shares Held in Street Name.* If you are a beneficial owner of shares held in street name and do not provide the organization that holds your shares with specific voting instructions, under the rules of various national and regional securities exchanges, the organization that holds your shares may generally not vote on non-routine matters, such as the election of directors.

***What are the Board's recommendations?***

The Board's recommendation is set forth together with the description of each item in this Proxy Statement. In summary, the Board recommends a vote:

· *for election* of the five directors nominated to hold office, subject to the provisions of the Bylaws of the Company, until the next annual meeting of stockholders and until their successors are duly elected and qualified;

· *to approve* the ratification of the appointment of Simon & Edward, LLP as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year 2025.

With respect to any other matter that properly comes before the meeting, the proxy holder will vote as recommended by the Board of Directors or, if no recommendation is given, in his own discretion.

***How are Proxy materials delivered to households?***

For shareholders receiving proxy material by mail, only one copy of the Company's 10-K for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2025 and this Proxy Statement will be delivered to an address where two or more stockholders reside with the same last name or who otherwise reasonably appear to be members of the same family based on the stockholders' prior express or implied consent.

We will deliver promptly upon written or oral request a separate copy of the Company's 10-K for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2025, as amended, and this Proxy Statement upon such request. If you share an address with at least one other stockholder and you currently receive one copy of our Annual Report and Proxy Statement at your residence, and would like to receive a separate copy of our Annual Report and Proxy Statement for future stockholder meetings of the Company, please specify such request in writing and send such written request to Franklin Wireless Corp., 3940 Ruffin Rd, Ste C, San Diego, CA 92123 Attention: Corporate Secretary.

***How much stock is owned by 5% stockholders, directors, and executive officers?***

 ****

The following table sets forth certain information regarding the beneficial ownership of our Common Stock as of September 30, 2025, by each director and executive officer of the Company, each person known to us to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of the outstanding Common Stock, and all directors and executive officers of the Company as a group.

**INFORMATION ABOUT THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS**

The Board of Directors oversees our business and affairs and monitors the performance of management. In accordance with corporate governance principles, the Board does not involve itself in day-to-day operations. The directors keep themselves informed through discussions with the President and other key executives, visits to the Company's facilities, by reading the reports and other materials that we send them and by participating in Board and committee meetings. Each director's term will continue until the election and qualification of his or her successor, or his or her earlier death, resignation or removal. Biographical information about our directors is provided in "Proposal No. 1: Proposal for Election of Five Directors." Except as set forth in this Proxy Statement, none of our directors held directorships in other reporting companies or registered investment companies at any time during the past five years.

Our Board currently consists of five persons, and all of them have been nominated by the Company to stand for election.

***Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings***

To our knowledge, during the last ten years, none of our directors has:

· Had a bankruptcy petition filed by or against any business of which such person was a general partner or executive officer either at the time of the bankruptcy or within two years prior to that time.

· Been convicted in a criminal proceeding or been subject to a pending criminal proceeding, excluding traffic violations and other minor offenses.

· Been subject to any order, judgment or decree, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any court of competent jurisdiction, permanently or temporarily enjoining, barring, suspending or otherwise limiting his involvement in any type of business, securities or banking activities.

· Except as described below, been found by a court of competent jurisdiction (in a civil action), the SEC, or the Commodities Futures Trading Commission to have violated a federal or state securities or commodities law, and the judgment has not been reversed, suspended or vacated.

· Been the subject to, or a party to, any sanction or order, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any self-regulatory organization, any registered entity, or any equivalent exchange, association, entity or organization that has disciplinary authority over its members or persons associated with a member.

In October 2023, a civil jury in a private derivative action returned a verdict for $2,000,000 in favor of the Company against the Company's Chief Executive Officer, O.C. Kim, for violation of Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, for receiving "short-swing" profits from a sale and purchase of Franklin shares.

***How often did the Board meet during fiscal 2025?***

 ****

During fiscal 2025, the Board of Directors held four meetings. Each director attended all of the meetings of the Board.

***What committees has the Board established?***

The Board of Directors has established three committees:

· Audit Committee consisting of Heidy Chow, CPA (committee chair), Ira Greenstein, and Kristina Kim.

· Compensation Committee consisting of Johnathan Chee (committee chair) and Kristina Kim.

· Nominating Committee consisting of Johnathan Chee (committee chair) and Heidy Chow.

***Audit Committee***

The Audit Committee is responsible for retaining, evaluating and, if appropriate, recommending the termination of the Company's independent auditors. The Audit Committee assists the Board in oversight of (1) the integrity of the Company's financial statements, (2) the Company's independent auditor's qualifications and independence, and (3) the performance of the independent auditors. In addition, the Committee renders its report for inclusion in the Company's annual proxy statement. The Audit Committee's charter is available on the Company's website at https://franklinaccess.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/Audit-Committee-Charter.pdf

The Audit Committee has the authority to obtain advice and assistance from outside legal, accounting or other advisors as the Audit Committee deems necessary to carry out its duties. During fiscal 2025, the Audit Committee met four times. The current members of the Audit Committee meet the NASDAQ Listing Standards for the independence of audit committee members. The Board has determined that Heidy Chow is an "audit committee financial expert" within the meaning of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The Report of the Audit Committee is presented elsewhere in this Proxy Statement.

 ****

***Compensation Committee***

The Compensation Committee assists the Board in discharging its responsibilities relating to compensation of the Company's President and other executives. The Committee also determines individuals to be granted options under the Company's Stock Option Plan, the number of options awarded and the term of the options and interprets provisions of such plan. The Compensation Committee's charter is available on the Company's website at https://franklinaccess.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/Compensation-Committee-Charter.pdf

During fiscal 2025, the Compensation Committee met three times.

***Nominating Committee***

The Nominating Committee is responsible for identifying individuals qualified to become directors. The Nominating Committee seeks to identify director candidates based on input provided by a number of sources, including (1) the members of the Board of Directors, (2) our stockholders, and (3) third parties, such as service providers. In evaluating potential candidates for director, the Board of Directors considers the entirety of each candidate's credentials.

Qualifications for consideration as a director nominee may vary according to the particular areas of expertise being sought as a complement to the existing composition of the Board of Directors. However, at a minimum, candidates for director must possess:

· high personal and professional ethics and integrity;

· the ability to exercise sound judgment;

· the ability to make independent analytical inquiries;

· a willingness and ability to devote adequate time and resources to diligently perform Board and committee duties; and

· the appropriate and relevant business experience and acumen.

The Board of Directors will consider nominees recommended by stockholders if such recommendations are made in writing to the Board in compliance with the Bylaws of the Company. The Board of Directors does not plan to change the manner in which it evaluates nominees for election as a director based on whether the nominee has been recommended by a stockholder or otherwise.

In considering new nominees and whether to re-nominate existing members of the Board, the committee seeks to achieve a Board with strengths in its collective knowledge and a broad diversity of perspectives, skills and business and professional experience. Among other items, the committee looks for a range of experience in strategic planning, sales, finance, executive leadership, industry, and similar attributes. During fiscal 2025, the Nominating Committee met one time.

The Nominating Committee's charter is available on the Company's website at https://franklinaccess.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/Nominating-Committee-Charter.pdf

***Stockholder Communications***

Stockholders requesting communication with directors can do so by writing to Franklin Wireless Corp., c/o Corporate Secretary, 3940 Ruffin Rd, Ste C, San Diego, CA 92123. At this time, we do not screen communications received and would forward any requests directly to the named director. If no director is named in a general inquiry, the Secretary would forward such request to the Chairman of the Board of Directors. We do not provide the physical address, email address, or phone numbers of directors without a director's permission.

***Code of Ethics***

We have adopted a Code of Ethics that applies to all our directors, officers, and employees, including our President.

***Director Compensation***

 ****

Our directors are reimbursed for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in attending meetings of the Board of Directors. Employee directors do not receive any cash compensation for service as directors and do not receive any equity compensation designated for such services. Members of the Board of Directors who are not employees may receive stock option grants as consideration for their board service from time to time, although there is no established policy for such stock option grants.

**INFORMATION ABOUT THE EXECUTIVE OFFICERS**

The executive officers are appointed by our Board of Directors and hold office at the pleasure of the Board. There are no family relationships between any of our directors or executive officers. The current executive officers of the Company are as follows:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| **Name** | **Age** | **Position** |
| OC Kim | 60 | President and a Director |
| Reid Granados | 43 | Acting Chief Financial Officer (Principal Financial Officer), and Director of Logistics |

---

The following includes the principal occupations for the past five years (and, in some instances, for prior years) of each of our executive officers:

OC Kim has been our President, CEO and a Director since 2003. Prior to joining Franklin Wireless, Mr. Kim was the CEO and President of Accetio Inc., a company he founded that developed modules for the wireless telecommunication industry. In 2003, Accetio Inc. merged with Franklin Telecommunications Corp. and was renamed Franklin Wireless Corp. He was a general manager of Kolon California Corp., one of Korea's most prominent conglomerates. While at Kolon Data Communications, in Korea, Mr. Kim helped introduce the first generation of CDMA phones to the Korean market through his work with Qualcomm Personal Electronics (QPE), a joint venture between Qualcomm Incorporated and Sony Electronics Inc. Mr. Kim began his career at Lucky Goldstar (LG) Electronics. He has almost 30 years of experience in sales, marketing, and operations management in the telecommunications and information systems industries. He earned a B.A. from Sogang University in Korea. We believe Mr. Kim's qualifications to serve as a director of the Company include his extensive business, operational and management experience in the wireless industry, including his current position as the Company's President. In addition, his knowledge of the Company's business, products, strategic relationships and future opportunities is of great value to the Company.

Reid Granados has served as Acting Chief Financial Officer since January 1, 2025, and as Director of Logistics since September 2024. Mr. Granados has more than twenty years of experience in finance and operations across multiple industries. Previously, he served as Vice President of Finance at a publicly traded retail e-commerce company and, before that, Director of Finance at a NASDAQ-listed company specializing in blockchain payments processing and stablecoin technology. He has also served as Chief Financial Officer of a privately held technology and payments company. Mr. Granados holds a Juris Doctor from DePaul University College of Law, an MBA from DePaul University's Kellstadt Graduate School of Business, and bachelor's degrees in accounting and finance from Loyola University Chicago.

**EMPLOYMENT CONTRACTS**

On October 1, 2020, we entered into Change of Control Agreements with OC Kim, our President, and Yun J. (David) Lee, our Senior Vice President of Sales who previously served as Chief Operating Officer. Each Change of Control Agreement provides for a lump sum payment to the officer in case of a change of control of the Company. The term includes the acquisition of Common Stock of the Company resulting in one person or company owning more than 50% of the outstanding shares, a significant change in the composition of the Board of Directors of the Company during any 12-month period, a reorganization, merger, consolidation or similar transaction resulting in the transfer of ownership of more than fifty percent (50%) of the Company's outstanding Common Stock, or a liquidation or dissolution of the Company or sale of substantially all of the Company's assets.

The Change of Control Agreement with Mr. Kim calls for a payment of $5 million upon a change of control, and the agreement with Mr. Lee calls for a payment of $2 million upon a change of control. These agreements were for an initial term of three years but have now been extended through October 2027.

On November 10, 2022, the Company and OC Kim, its President, entered into an amendment of the employment agreement dated September 7, 2021. The amendment provides for a severance payment of $3 million if Mr. Kim voluntarily terminates his employment with the Company or if he voluntarily terminates his employment due to a "change in circumstances," generally defined as a material breach by the Company of its salary and benefit obligations or a significant reduction in Mr. Kim's title or responsibilities. In the case of a termination of employment by the Company for cause (generally defined as conviction of a felony, or a misdemeanor where imprisonment is imposed, commission of any act of theft, fraud, dishonesty, or material falsification of any employment or Company records, or improper disclosure of the Company's confidential or proprietary information), the Company is to make a severance payment of $1,500,000. In either case, any unvested options become immediately vested.

In the amendment, Mr. Kim also agrees that, for a period of two years after termination, he will not disparage the Company or its officers, solicit any of its employees to terminate their employment, or disclose any of the Company's proprietary information. In addition, the amendment provides for the payment of an incentive bonus to Mr. Kim of $125,000 for each calendar quarter during the remaining four-year term of the employment letter, with the first such bonus due on December 31, 2022. Incentive bonuses of $500,000 have been accrued for each of the years ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, resulting in accrued bonus balances of $1,375,000 and $875,000 as of June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. As of June 30, 2025, no payment for the accrued bonuses has been made by the Company.

The employment agreement with OC Kim was renewed and extended by the Board in September 2024 and will continue through October 2027.

**FORBEARANCE AGREEMENT**

On September 23, 2024, the Board acknowledged that OC Kim, its President, had earned an incentive bonus of $1,250,000 for negotiating and securing a joint venture agreement with its EMS partner. The Company and Mr. Kim also entered into a Forbearance Agreement on September 23, 2024, under which Mr. Kim agreed to defer the bonus, in exchange for the Company's agreement to allow Mr. Kim to defer payment of the $1,000,000 settlement amount owed by Mr. Kim to the Company under a Settlement Agreement, dated June 12, 2024.

On January 16, 2025, we accrued the deferred incentive bonus of $1,250,000 to OC Kim, our President, and recognized a receivable for the deferred $1,000,000 settlement amount owed by Mr. Kim to the Company. As of June 30, 2025, no payment for the accrued bonus has been made to Mr. Kim by the Company, and the receivable of $1,000,000 from Mr. Kim was partially settled through the May 8, 2025 option repurchase transaction, in which the $337,404 net proceeds otherwise payable to Mr. Kim were applied against the receivable. This leaves a remaining settlement balance of $662,596 owed by Mr. Kim as of June 30, 2025.

**<u>TIMING OF STOCK OPTION GRANTS</u>**

The Company's Compensation Committee has adopted a policy regarding the timing of grants of stock options and other equity awards. Under this policy:

· Annual equity awards are generally approved shortly after the
Company's fiscal year-end results are released.

· The Committee does not time grants in coordination with the release
of material nonpublic information.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Directors, officers, and employees are prohibited from receiving options or other equity awards during
blackout periods or at any time when they are aware of material nonpublic information.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Any Rule 10b5-1 trading plans adopted by executives must comply with applicable SEC regulations and the
Company's Insider Trading Policy.

**COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS**

**GENERAL PHILOSOPHY**- We compensate our executive officers through a mix of base salary, incentive compensation and stock options. Our compensation policies are designed to be competitive with comparable employers and to align management's incentives with both near-term and long-term interests of our stockholders. We use informal methods of benchmarking our executive compensation, based on the experience of our directors or, in some cases, studies of industry standards. Our compensation is negotiated on a case by case basis, with attention being given to the amount of compensation necessary to make a competitive offer and the relative compensation among our executive officers.

**BASE SALARIES** – We want to provide our senior management with a level of cash compensation in the form of base salary that facilitates an appropriate lifestyle given their professional status and accomplishments.

**INCENTIVE COMPENSATION** – Our practice is to award cash bonuses based upon performance objectives set by the Board of Directors. We maintain a bonus plan which provides our executive officers with the opportunity to earn cash bonuses based on the achievement of performance targets. The performance targets are set by the Board of Directors, and our executive officers are eligible to receive bonuses on a quarterly basis. The actual amount of incentive compensation paid to our executive officers is in the sole discretion of the Board of Directors.

**SEVERANCE BENEFITS** – We are generally an "at-will" employer and have no employment agreements with severance benefits; however, we have entered into Change of Control Agreements with OC Kim & David Lee, and a severance agreement with OC Kim that provides him with a lump sum payment in the event he leaves the Company.

**RETIREMENT PLANS** – In January 2022, we implemented the CalSavers retirement program, an automatic enrollment individual retirement account (IRA). The program is a voluntary participation program, and all employees have the option to participate in this program if they choose to do so.

**MANDATORY RECOUPMENT POLICY** – The Company maintains a Mandatory Recoupment Policy to enable the Company to recover erroneously awarded compensation in the event that the Company is required to prepare an accounting restatement.

**INSIDER TRADING POLICIES AND PROCEDURES**

The Company has adopted an Insider Trading Policy (the "Policy") that applies to all directors, executive officers, employees, and certain consultants and contractors. The Policy is designed to promote compliance with federal securities laws and to prohibit insider trading in the Company's securities.

The Policy, among other things:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Prohibits the purchase or sale of the Company's securities
while aware of material nonpublic information.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Restricts trading during designated blackout periods surrounding the Company's earnings releases and other significant events.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Requires pre-clearance of trades by directors, executive officers,
and designated employees.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Prohibits hedging, short sales, and transactions in derivatives
tied to the Company's securities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Restricts the use of margin accounts and pledges of Company securities
without advance approval.

The Policy also addresses the adoption and use of Rule 10b5-1 trading plans, requiring that such plans comply with applicable SEC rules and be pre-approved by the Company's compliance officer.

**PAY VERSUS PERFORMANC**E

We are providing the following disclosure regarding executive compensation for our CEO and other Named Executive Officers ("NEOs"), our total shareholder return and that of our selected peer group, our net income and the most important "financial performance measure" used by us to link executive pay with company performance. This reporting is subject to SEC rules. Those rules require amounts included in the "compensation actually paid" columns of the table to be calculated according to a particular formula intended to demonstrate the relationship between "compensation actually paid" to a company's NEOs and the company's performance. The formula reflects a number of fair value adjustments to equity awards intended to show the change in value of those awards from one year to another. They do not reflect, however, the precise amounts actually earned by or paid to our executives during the years shown in the table.

For further information concerning our pay-for-performance philosophy and how we structure our executive compensation to drive and reward performance, refer to "Executive Compensation—Compensation Discussion and Analysis."

The following table presents information regarding our executive compensation pay relative to corporate performance of our principal executive officers ("PEO") and non-PEO named executive officers ("NEOs") for Fiscal Years 2023, 2024 and 2025.

(1) Represents the value of a $100 investment in the Company's shares as of June 30, 2022, valued again on each of June 30, 2023, 2024 and 2025. Because the Company has not historically paid dividends and has experienced net losses during the periods presented, changes in TSR primarily reflect movements in the market price of the Company's Common Stock.

(2) The $1,071,068 includes the $746,067 from an Option Repurchase transaction with Mr. Kim .

The Summary Compensation Table ("SCT") totals reported for the PEO and the average of the other NEOs for each year were subject to the adjustments summarized in the two tables below as required by SEC Regulation S-K Item 402(v)(2)(iii) to calculate "compensation actually paid." Equity values are calculated in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718. Valuation assumptions used to calculate fair values at the times indicated in the two tables below did not materially differ from those disclosed at the time of grant except for the stock price, percentage of volatility, risk free rate and the term used to calculate the valuations.

The vote of a majority of the shares of Common Stock or represented at the meeting is required for approval. Broker non-votes will be voted in favor of approval. Simon & Edward, LLP has acted as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm during the past fiscal year. It is not anticipated that a representative of Simon & Edward, LLP will attend the Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

The aggregate fees billed for the most recently completed fiscal period for the audit of our annual financial statements and services normally provided by the independent registered public accounting firm for this fiscal period were as follows:

---

The fees set forth on the foregoing table relate to the audit as of and for the years ended June 30, 2025, and 2024, which was performed by Simon & Edward, LLP.

***Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures***

The Board of Directors pre-approves all audit and non-audit services performed by the Company's auditor and the fees to be paid in connection with such services in order to assure that the provision of such services does not impair the auditor's independence.
