Disposition of Legacy Movano Assets
As disclosed in the Company's proxy statement for the annual meeting, the Annual Meeting comes as Corvex has completed disposition of the assets associated with its predecessor company, Movano Inc., including the Wellness Ring and Medical Ring wearable health technology products and related intellectual property, to a lender in satisfaction of certain secured indebtedness.

The legacy Movano healthcare assets represented a distinct and separate line of business from Corvex's core GPU-accelerated AI infrastructure operations.
