The authorized-share increase depends on preferred-stock conversion, while the Board would choose any reverse-split ratio.

Sentiment and the balance of points

Rhea-AI Sentiment reads the wording of the document, how positive or negative its language is on a 1 to 5 scale. The balance of points shown with the takes weighs what the document actually discloses, so the two can disagree, for example when a trial that missed its main goal is described in upbeat language.

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

FiEE, Inc. asks stockholders to consider seven proposals, including a proposal to remove the beneficial ownership limit on Series A preferred stock, increase authorized common shares from 60,000,000 to 300,000,000, and approve a reverse stock split within a 1-for-2 to 1-for-15 range. The charter change would raise total authorized capital stock from 70,000,000 to 310,000,000 shares. The authorization alone would not change shares outstanding; later issuances could dilute ownership and voting power. Removing the preferred-stock limit would permit conversions without that cap and could increase holders’ voting and economic ownership.

The authorized-share increase is contingent on approval and effectiveness of the preferred-stock amendment, conversion of all outstanding Series A preferred shares, and effectiveness of a certificate of elimination. The Board would select any reverse-split ratio and timing before the first anniversary of the meeting and may abandon the split. FiEE reported $1,072,434 net income in fiscal 2025, compared with a $4,224,278 net loss in fiscal 2024. Other votes cover five director nominees, UHY LLP’s appointment for fiscal 2026, and executive compensation.

How this balance works

Rhea-AI gives every point it takes from this document a weight. Minor counts 1, Moderate 3 and Major 9, so one Major point outweighs several Minor ones. The bar adds up the weights on each side, and when neither side holds more than 65% of the total the balance reads Mixed.

It reads the document as published, with the same rules for every company, and it does not look at what the market expected or at how the stock traded, so a point can be objectively good on a day the stock falls.

Rhea-AI Sentiment measures something else, the tone of the wording.

Filing Explained

The reverse split remains only a proposal, and if implemented, it would leave each holder’s percentage ownership unchanged except for effects of cash paid in lieu of fractional shares, while proportionally adjusting share counts and exercise or conversion prices for outstanding equity awards, warrants and other convertible securities.

Beneficial Ownership Limitation regulatory
"remove the Beneficial Ownership Limitation"
A beneficial ownership limitation is a rule that caps the percentage of a company’s shares an investor can be treated as owning or controlling for voting, regulatory or tax purposes. It matters to investors because it can restrict how many shares a person or group can buy or vote, affect takeover chances, and influence share liquidity and value — like a speed limit that prevents any single driver from taking over the whole road.
authorized but unissued shares financial
"sufficient authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock"
Authorized but unissued shares are the number of shares a company is legally allowed to create but has not yet issued to investors, employees, or other parties. They matter to investors because issuing those reserved shares in the future can dilute existing ownership, raise cash, or be used for employee pay and acquisitions—like having empty slots a company can fill later, which changes voting power and per-share value.
broker non-vote regulatory
"A “broker non-vote” occurs when a beneficial owner"
A broker non-vote happens when a brokerage firm holds shares in street name for a client but does not cast a ballot on a particular shareholder item because the broker lacks discretionary authority to vote that matter. Think of it like a person who owns a ticket but the ticket-holder refuses to vote on some issues; the share counts for ownership but not for that vote, which can affect whether proposals reach the required number of votes or a quorum.
appraisal rights regulatory
"Stockholders do not have appraisal rights under Delaware law"
A legal right that lets shareholders who dislike the price or terms of a buyout, merger or other major corporate change ask for an independent determination of the fair value of their shares instead of accepting the deal price. Think of it like asking a neutral referee to set the payout if you believe the offered price is too low. For investors, appraisal rights can provide a way to recover a higher cash value but can be slow, costly and create uncertainty around deal outcomes.
additional paid-in capital financial
"the additional paid-in capital account will be correspondingly increased"
Amount of money shareholders have paid to a company for shares that is above the stock’s nominal or par value; think of it as the extra premium paid when a group buys a ticket that has a low listed price. It matters to investors because it represents permanent capital on the balance sheet that can cushion losses, affect book value per share and indicate how much fresh cash equity holders have contributed beyond the minimum share value.

FAQ

AI-generated questions and answers. How Rhea-AI works. Not financial advice.

What reverse stock split is FiEE (FIEE) proposing?

FiEE is seeking approval for a reverse stock split within a 1-for-2 to 1-for-15 range. The Board would choose the specific ratio and whether and when to implement it before the first anniversary of the annual meeting. The Board may also abandon the split.

How many common shares would FiEE (FIEE) be authorized to issue?

The proposal would increase authorized common shares from 60,000,000 to 300,000,000, raising total authorized capital stock from 70,000,000 to 310,000,000 shares. It would take effect only after the preferred-stock amendment becomes effective, all outstanding Series A preferred shares convert, and a certificate of elimination becomes effective.

What would removing FiEE’s Series A ownership limit mean for shareholders?

If approved and effective, Series A preferred holders could convert their shares without regard to the beneficial ownership limitation. FiEE states that holders and their affiliates could then own a greater percentage of common shares, potentially diluting other stockholders’ voting and economic interests and concentrating ownership and voting power.

(the “Board of Directors” or “Board”), for use at the 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders to be held on [•], 2026 at [•] Eastern Time (including any adjournments or postponements thereof, the “Annual Meeting”), for the purposes set forth herein and in the Notice of Annual Meeting of Stockholders with which this proxy statement (this “Proxy Statement”) is enclosed.

Record Date, Quorum, Adjournment, Abstentions, and Broker Non-Votes
Only stockholders of record at the close of business on the Record Date are entitled to receive notice of and to vote at the Annual Meeting. At the close of business on the Record Date there were [•] outstanding shares of Common Stock entitled to vote. Each holder of shares of Common Stock on the Record Date is entitled to one vote for each such share of Common Stock.
At the close of business on the Record Date there were [•] outstanding shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. Series A Convertible Preferred Stock has the right to vote, together with Common Stock as a single class, on all matters on which Common Stock is entitled to vote, and each then-outstanding share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock will be entitled to a number of votes equal to the number of shares of Common Stock into which such share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock would be convertible on the Record Date pursuant to the Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Designations, Preferences, Rights and Limitations of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. As of the close of business on the Record Date, shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock were convertible into [•] shares of Common Stock. Each holder of shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock on the Record Date is entitled to [•] vote for each share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.

The holders of one-third of all capital stock issued, outstanding and entitled to vote at a meeting shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business. Any meeting of our stockholders may be adjourned from time to time by a majority of the votes properly cast upon the question, whether or not a quorum is present.
An “abstention” occurs when a holder of shares of Common Stock or Series A Convertible Preferred Stock represented at the Annual Meeting in person or by proxy determines not to vote “For” or “Against” a proposal presented to stockholders at the Annual Meeting. Under Delaware law, “abstentions” are treated as present and entitled to vote for purposes of determining the presence of a quorum at the Annual Meeting.
A “broker non-vote” occurs when a beneficial owner of shares of Common Stock or Series A Convertible Preferred Stock holds such shares through a bank, broker, or other nominee (hereinafter referred to as a “broker”) and fails to give the broker instructions on how to vote the beneficial owner’s shares on matters that the applicable stock exchange rules deem to be “non-routine” matters. Under the applicable stock exchange rules, brokers are entitled to vote a beneficial owner’s shares of Common Stock and Series A Convertible Preferred Stock on “routine” matters without the beneficial owner providing the broker instructions on how to vote. Because there is at least one “routine” proposal to be submitted to stockholders at the Annual Meeting on which brokers will have discretionary authority to vote, “broker non-votes” will be treated as present and entitled to vote for determining the presence of a quorum at the Annual Meeting.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

What is required to approve each proposal?
Proposal No. 1: Election of Directors. The five nominees for election to the Board of Directors who receive the greatest number of votes properly cast by the holders of shares of Common Stock and Series A Convertible Preferred Stock present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote thereon (voting together as a single class) will be elected directors of FiEE. “Abstentions” and “broker non-votes” are not considered “votes properly cast” and therefore will have no effect on this proposal.
Proposal No. 2: Ratification of the appointment of UHY LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for its fiscal year ending December 31, 2026. The receipt of “For” votes from a majority of the votes properly cast by the holders of shares of Common Stock and Series A Convertible Preferred Stock entitled to vote and present in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting (voting together as a single class) will be necessary to ratify the appointment of UHY LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for its fiscal year ending December 31, 2026. “Abstentions” and “broker non-votes” are not considered “votes properly cast” and therefore will have no effect on this proposal.
Proposal No. 3: Approval of an amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation to remove the beneficial ownership limitation applicable to our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. Because this proposal amends our Certificate of Incorporation and may change the powers, preferences, or special rights of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock so as to affect them adversely, the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority in voting power of the outstanding shares of Common Stock and Series A Convertible Preferred Stock entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting (voting together as a single class) and the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority in voting power of the outstanding shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting (voting separately as a single class) is required to approve Proposal No. 3. “Abstentions” and “broker non-votes” will have the same effect as a vote “AGAINST” this proposal.
Proposal No. 4: Approval of the Second A&R Charter to increase our authorized Common Stock and correspondingly increase the total number of authorized shares of our capital stock that we are authorized to issue. Because shares of Common Stock will be listed on a national securities exchange immediately prior to the Second A&R Charter becoming effective and meet the listing requirements of such national securities exchange relating to the minimum number of holders after the Second A&R Charter becomes effective and this proposal amends and restates our Certificate of Incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of Common Stock and correspondingly increase the total number of authorized shares of our capital stock that we are authorized to issue, (i) the votes cast “For” the Second A&R Charter by the holders of the outstanding shares of Common Stock and Series A Convertible Preferred Stock entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting (voting together as a single class) must exceed the votes cast by such holders “Against” the Second A&R Charter and (ii) the votes cast “For” the Second A&R Charter by the holders of the outstanding shares of Common Stock entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting (voting separately as a single class) must exceed the votes cast by such holders “Against” the Second A&R Charter for Proposal 4 to be approved. “Abstentions” and “broker non-votes” are not considered “votes cast” and therefore will have no effect on this proposal. Proposal No. 4 will not be implemented unless Proposal No. 3 is approved and effected, all outstanding shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock have converted into shares of Common Stock, and a certificate of elimination of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock has been filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware and become effective.
Proposal No. 5: Approval of the Reverse Stock Split. Because shares of Common Stock will be listed on a national securities exchange immediately prior to the Reverse Stock Split becoming effective and meet the listing requirements of such national securities exchange relating to the minimum number of holders after such Reverse Stock Split becomes effective, the votes cast “For” the Reverse Stock Split by the holders of outstanding shares of Common Stock and Series A Convertible Preferred Stock entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting (voting together as a single class) must exceed the votes cast by such holders “Against” the Reverse Stock Split for the Reverse Stock Split to be approved. “Abstentions” and “broker non-votes” are not considered “votes cast” and therefore will have no effect on this proposal.
Proposal No. 6: Advisory Vote on the Frequency of Future Advisory Votes on Executive Compensation. This vote is advisory and is not binding on us or our Board. Stockholders will be able to specify one of four choices for this proposal on the proxy card: every year, every two years, every three years, or abstain. The choice receiving the greatest number of votes properly cast by the holders of shares of Common Stock and Series A Convertible Preferred Stock

entitled to vote and present in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting (voting together as a single class) will be considered the stockholders’ non-binding recommendation. “Abstentions” and “broker non-votes” are not considered “votes properly cast” and therefore will have no effect on the outcome of this proposal.
Proposal No. 7: Advisory Vote on Named Executive Officer Compensation. This vote is advisory and is not binding on us or our Board. The affirmative vote of a majority of the votes properly cast by the holders of shares of Common Stock and Series A Convertible Preferred Stock entitled to vote and present in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting (voting together as a single class) will be required to approve, on a non-binding advisory basis, the resolution relating to the compensation of our named executive officers. “Abstentions” and “broker non-votes” are not considered “votes properly cast” and therefore will have no effect on the outcome of this proposal.

Delinquent Section 16(a) Reports
Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), requires our directors and officers, and persons who own more than ten percent of our Common Stock, to file with the SEC initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership of our Common Stock. To our knowledge, based solely on a review of the copies of such reports furnished to us, during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, we believe that all filing requirements applicable to our officers, directors and greater than ten percent stockholders were complied with for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, except that Elements Corporate Services Limited, a greater than ten percent stockholder, was late in filing one required report on Form 3 and one required report on Form 4 with respect to one transaction, due to an administrative error, and Chan Oi Fat was late in filing one required report on Form 3.
Director Independence
Our Board of Directors reviews the independence of the current and potential members of the Board of Directors in accordance with independence requirements set forth in the Nasdaq Listing Rules and applicable provisions of the Exchange Act based on director responses to director and officer questionnaires and other information available to the Board of Directors. During its review, the Board of Directors considers transactions and relationships between each director and potential director, as well as any member of his or her immediate family, and the Company and its affiliates, including those related-party transactions contemplated by Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K under the Exchange Act. The Board of Directors must affirmatively determine that the director has no material relationship with the Company, either directly or as a partner, stockholder or officer of an organization that has a relationship with the Company, that, in the opinion of the Board of Directors, would interfere with the exercise of the director’s independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director. The purpose of this review is to determine whether any such relationships or transactions exist that are inconsistent with a determination that the director is independent. Our Board of Directors has determined that each of Hongya Wen, Hu Bin, Angel Colon and Chan Oi Fat is independent within the meaning of Rule 5605(a)(2) of the Nasdaq Listing Rules and the rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC.
Board Meetings
Our Board of Directors held 12 meetings during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025. In 2025, each of our directors attended at least 75% of the aggregate number of meetings held by the Board of Directors, and the committees on which the director served, when such director was a member of the Board of Directors or such committee. It is expected that each director will attend each Board of Directors meeting and each meeting of any committee on which he or she sits. The Company’s directors are encouraged to attend our Annual Meeting, but we do not currently have a policy relating to directors’ attendance at these meetings. All directors, who were directors at the time, virtually attended our 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.
Board Committees
Our Board of Directors has established three standing committees to assist it with its responsibilities. The composition and responsibilities of each committee are described below. The membership and responsibilities of each committee comply with the listing requirements of Nasdaq.

In the future, the Board may establish other committees, as it deems appropriate, to assist it with its responsibilities.

The Compensation Committee held one meeting during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025.
Board Leadership Structure
The Company’s governance framework provides the Board with the authority and flexibility necessary to select the appropriate leadership structure for the Board. In making determinations about the leadership structure, the Board considers many factors, including the specific needs of the business and what is in the best interests of the Company’s stockholders. Hongya Wen, an independent director, currently serves as the Chairperson of the Board. Li Wai Chung currently serves as our Chief Executive Officer. Our Board of Directors has carefully considered its leadership structure and believes at this time that the Company and its stockholders are best served by having the offices of Chairperson of the Board and Chief Executive Officer held by different individuals based on our business and strategy. This structure allows our Chief Executive Officer to focus on the Company’s day-to-day operations and strategic vision, while allowing the Chairperson to lead the Board. The Board of Directors has not designated a lead independent director. The Board retains the authority to modify the foregoing leadership structure.
Board’s Role in Risk Oversight
The Board is ultimately responsible for risk management oversight. This oversight is primarily accomplished through the Board of Directors’ committees and management’s reporting processes, including receiving regular reports from members of management on areas of material risk to the Company, including operational, financial and strategic risks. Risks relating to cybersecurity and the Company’s use of artificial intelligence are overseen by the full Board.
The Board’s standing committees support the Board by addressing various risks within their respective areas of responsibility. The Audit Committee assists the Board in discussing with management, internal auditors and the independent auditor guidelines and policies governing the process by which senior management of the Company and the relevant departments of the Company, including the internal auditing department, assess and manage the Company’s exposure to risk, as well as the Company’s major financial risk exposures and the steps management has taken to monitor and control such exposures. The Compensation Committee assesses risks arising from our compensation policies and practices. The NCG Committee advises the Board periodically with regard to significant developments in the law and practice of corporate governance as well as the Company’s compliance with applicable laws and regulations, and makes recommendations to the Board on all matters of corporate governance and on any remedial action to be taken. Each of the committees reports to the Board regularly, during which risks are discussed and assessed.
The Board believes that its current leadership structure supports the risk oversight function of the Board. Having the roles of Chief Executive Officer and Chairperson of the Board filled by separate individuals allows the Chief Executive Officer to lead management in its supervision of the Company’s day-to-day business operations, including the identification, assessment and mitigation of material risks, and allows the Chairperson of the Board to lead the Board in its oversight of the Company’s risk assessment and risk management activities.
Director Nomination Process
Our NCG Committee is responsible for reviewing and making recommendations to our Board regarding nominations of director candidates. The NCG Committee identifies new director candidates through a variety of sources. Our NCG Committee will consider director candidates recommended by stockholders in the same manner it
9

TABLE OF CONTENTS

considers other candidates, but it has no obligation to recommend such candidates. A stockholder that wants to recommend a candidate for election to the Board should mail a recommendation to 3-33, 2-chome Utajima, Nishiyodogawa District, Osaka, Japan. Such recommendation should describe the candidate’s qualifications and other relevant biographical information and provide confirmation of the candidate’s consent to serve as director. Stockholders may also nominate directors at the Annual Meeting by adhering to the written notice procedure described under “Stockholder Proposals for the 2027 Annual Meeting” on page 33 of this Proxy Statement.
The NCG Committee works with the Board on an annual basis to determine the appropriate characteristics, skills and experience for the Board as a whole and its individual members. In evaluating the suitability of individual Board members, the Board and the NCG Committee will take into account factors such as the individual’s general understanding of disciplines relevant to the success of a publicly traded company; understanding of FiEE’s business; education and professional background, including current employment and other board memberships; reputation for integrity; and any other factors they consider to be relevant. Additionally, in determining whether to recommend a director for re-election, the NCG Committee also considers the director’s past attendance at meetings and participation in and contributions to the activities of the Board.
Our NCG Committee recognizes the value of nominating individuals who will bring a variety of diverse opinions, perspectives, skills, experiences, backgrounds and orientations to the Board’s discussions and decision-making processes. The Board will endeavor to reflect the diversity of FiEE’s stockholders, employees, customers and the communities we serve. To that end, our NCG Committee strives for diversity across a variety of categories, including experience, skills, accomplishments, personal qualities and other traits that it believes would contribute to our Board.
Insider Trading Policy
Our insider trading policy (adopted on May 30, 2025) prohibits our directors, officers and other employees, and their designees, from engaging in short sales of any nature that are designed to offset a decrease in market value of such person’s ownership of the Company’s equity securities. The Company does not currently have a policy regarding hedging activities. A copy of our insider trading policy is filed as an exhibit to our most recent Annual Report.

Each Indemnification Agreement requires the Company, among other things, to indemnify these directors and executive officers against certain liabilities that may arise by reason of their status or service as directors or executive officers of the Company, and to advance certain expenses incurred as a result of any proceeding as to which they are indemnified.

ELECTION OF DIRECTORS
The size of FiEE’s Board of Directors is currently set at five directors. The Board of Directors, upon the recommendation of the NCG Committee, has nominated Cao Yu, Hu Bin, Angel Colon, Chan Oi Fat and Hongya Wen for election as directors at the Annual Meeting. All of the foregoing nominees for election to the Board of Directors have consented to be named in this Proxy Statement and to serve as a director, if elected.
Unless otherwise instructed, the proxy holders will vote the proxies received by them for the nominees named above. In the event that any nominee above is unable or unwilling to serve as a director at the time of the Annual Meeting, the proxies will be voted for the replacement nominee designated by the present Board. It is not expected that any nominee above will be unable or unwilling to serve as a director. Each director elected at the Annual Meeting will hold office until the next Annual Meeting, until his or her successor is duly elected and qualified or until his or her earlier death, resignation, or removal. The five individuals nominated for election at the Annual Meeting who receive the largest number of votes properly cast by the holders of shares of Common Stock and Series A Convertible Preferred Stock present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote thereon (voting together as a single class) will be elected as directors up to the maximum number of directors to be elected at the Annual Meeting. If elected, each nominee will serve a one-year term expiring at the 2027 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.
For more information on the structure of our Board of Directors and our Board members and nominees, see “Executive Officers, Directors and Corporate Governance.” The qualifications and experience of each nominee that led our Board and the NCG Committee to conclude that such nominee should serve or continue to serve as director are discussed at the end of each of the nominees’ biographies.
Vote Required
The five nominees for the Board of Directors who receive the greatest number of votes properly cast by holders of shares of Common Stock and Series A Convertible Preferred Stock present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote thereon (voting together as a single class) will be elected directors of FiEE. You may choose to vote FOR, AGAINST, or ABSTAIN separately for each nominee. Because the election of directors is a “non-routine” matter under the applicable stock exchange rules, if your shares are held by a broker and you do not give the broker specific instructions on how to vote your shares on Proposal No. 1, your broker may not vote your shares at its discretion on Proposal No. 1. “Abstentions” and “broker non-votes” are not considered “votes properly cast” and therefore will have no effect on the outcome of voting on this matter.
THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS A VOTE “FOR” EACH OF THE FIVE DIRECTOR NOMINEES LISTED ABOVE.

RATIFICATION OF APPOINTMENT OF OUR INDEPENDENT
REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
General
On July 11, 2025, the Audit Committee approved the dismissal of Beckles & Co., Inc. (“Beckles & Co.”), its independent registered public accounting firm since May 2024, effective immediately, and, after a thorough evaluation, approved the selection of UHY LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025 (which selection has been continued for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026). The audit reports of Beckles & Co. on the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of and for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, nor were the reports qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles, except that Beckles & Co.’s reports contained an explanatory paragraph regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 and the subsequent interim period through July 11, 2025, there were no “disagreements” (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K) between the Company and Beckles & Co. On May 3, 2024, the Audit Committee unanimously approved the dismissal of BF Borgers CPA PC (“BF Borgers”) as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, and, in light of such dismissal, the Company engaged Beckles & Co. on May 6, 2024 to serve as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024. BF Borgers’ report on the Company’s financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, nor were the reports qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles, except that BF Borgers’ reports contained an explanatory paragraph regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 and the subsequent interim period through May 3, 2024, there were no “disagreements” (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K) and no “reportable events” (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K) between the Company and BF Borgers. Stockholder ratification of the selection of UHY LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm is not required by our Bylaws. The Board of Directors seeks such ratification as a matter of good corporate practice. Should the stockholders fail to ratify the selection of UHY LLP, the Audit Committee will reconsider whether to retain that firm for fiscal year 2026. Even if the selection is ratified, the Audit Committee, in its discretion, may direct the appointment of a different independent registered public accounting firm at any time during the year if it determines that such a change would be in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders.

Pre-approval Policies and Procedures
The Audit Committee is required to review and approve in advance the retention of the independent auditors for the performance of all audit and lawfully permitted non-audit services and the fees for such services. The Audit Committee may delegate to one or more of its members the authority to grant pre-approvals for the performance of non-audit services, and any such Audit Committee member who pre-approves a non-audit service must report the pre-approval to the full Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting. The Audit Committee is required to periodically notify the Board of their approvals. The required pre-approval policies and procedures were complied with during fiscal years 2025 and 2024.

Vote Required
The receipt of “For” votes from a majority of the votes properly cast by the holders of shares of Common Stock and Series A Convertible Preferred Stock entitled to vote and present in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting (voting together as a single class) will be required for the ratification of the appointment of UHY LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026. “Abstentions” are not considered “votes properly cast” and therefore will have no effect on this proposal. Brokers generally have discretionary authority to vote on the ratification of our independent registered public accounting firm, thus, “broker non-votes” are not expected to result from the vote on this proposal.

PROPOSAL NO. 3
 
APPROVAL OF AN AMENDMENT TO THE CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION TO REMOVE THE BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP LIMITATION APPLICABLE TO OUR SERIES A CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK
Overview
Our Board has unanimously approved, and is recommending to our stockholders for their approval, an amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation, in the form attached to this Proxy Statement as Appendix A (the “Series A Amendment”), which amends the Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Designations, Preferences, Rights and Limitations of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, $0.001 par value per share (the “Certificate of Designations”), to remove the beneficial ownership limitation set forth therein (the “Beneficial Ownership Limitation”) and certain related provisions, in order to permit the holders of shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock to convert their shares into shares of Common Stock without regard to that limitation.
Description and Purpose for the Proposal
The Certificate of Designations currently limits the number of shares of Common Stock that a holder of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (together with such holder’s affiliates and any persons acting as a group together with such holder or any of such holder’s affiliates) may beneficially own following conversion of such holder’s shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock. The Series A Amendment would: (i) delete the definition of “Beneficial Ownership Limitation” from the Certificate of Designations in its entirety; (ii) delete references to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation from the conversion mechanics set forth in Section 4 of the Certificate of Designations; (iii) delete in its entirety the provision of Section 6(c) of the Certificate of Designations addressing the Beneficial Ownership Limitation; and (iv) delete references to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation from the participation rights provisions set forth in Sections 7(b) and 7(c) of the Certificate of Designations. The general description of the changes to the Certificate of Designations that we are proposing is qualified in its entirety by reference to the text of the Series A Amendment set forth in Appendix A.
Our Board believes that removing the Beneficial Ownership Limitation is advisable and in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders because it will permit all outstanding shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock to convert into shares of Common Stock, which conversion is a condition to implementing the increase in the number of our authorized shares of Common Stock described in Proposal No. 4 below, and will simplify our capital structure going forward.
Effect of the Proposal
If Proposal No. 3 is approved by our stockholders, we will have the authority to file the Series A Amendment with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, which will become effective upon such filing. Following the effectiveness of the Series A Amendment, holders of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock will be permitted to convert their shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock without regard to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, which could result in such holders (and their affiliates) beneficially owning a greater percentage of our outstanding shares of Common Stock than they would have been permitted to hold under the Beneficial Ownership Limitation. This could result in the dilution of the voting and economic interests of our other stockholders and could facilitate a concentration of ownership and voting power among certain of our existing stockholders.
Proposal No. 3 is separate from, but is a condition to, Proposal No. 4 described below. If Proposal No. 3 is not approved, we will not be able to implement the Second A&R Charter described in Proposal No. 4.
Required Vote
Approval of Proposal No. 3 requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority in voting power of the outstanding shares of Common Stock and Series A Convertible Preferred Stock entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting (voting together as a single class) and the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority in voting power of the outstanding shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting (voting separately as a single class). Because Proposal No. 3 is a “non-routine” matter under the applicable stock exchange rules, if your shares are held by a broker and you do not give the broker specific instructions on how to vote your shares on Proposal No. 3, your broker may not vote your shares at its discretion on Proposal No. 3. “Abstentions” and “broker non-votes” will have the same effect as a vote “AGAINST” this proposal.

PROPOSAL NO. 3.

PROPOSAL NO. 4
 
APPROVAL OF A SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION TO INCREASE OUR AUTHORIZED COMMON STOCK
Overview
Our Certificate of Incorporation currently authorizes the Company to issue a total of 70,000,000 shares of capital stock, consisting of 60,000,000 shares of Common Stock and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share. Our Board has unanimously approved, and is recommending to our stockholders for their approval, the Second A&R Charter, in the form attached to this Proxy Statement as Appendix B, which would, among other things, increase the number of authorized shares of our Common Stock from 60,000,000 to 300,000,000 and thereby increase the total number of shares of capital stock the Company may issue to 310,000,000.
Contingent Nature of this Proposal
If the Second A&R Charter is approved by our stockholders at the Annual Meeting, the Second A&R Charter will not be filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware and become effective unless: (i) the Series A Amendment described in Proposal No. 3 is filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware and becomes effective; (ii) all outstanding shares of our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock are converted into shares of Common Stock (together, the “Conversion”); and (iii) a certificate of elimination of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock is filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware and becomes effective. If the Second A&R Charter is approved by our stockholders at the Annual Meeting but does not become effective, it will be abandoned by our Board without further action of our stockholders. If Proposal No. 3 is not approved by our stockholders, or if all outstanding shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock have not converted into Common Stock, we will not file the Second A&R Charter, notwithstanding approval of this Proposal No. 4 by our stockholders.
Reasons for the Proposal
Our Board believes that the proposed increase in the number of authorized shares of Common Stock is advisable and in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders in order to provide us with sufficient authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock to satisfy our existing contractual share reservation obligations, including in respect of shares issuable upon conversion of shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, the exercise of outstanding warrants, and awards under our equity incentive plans, and to provide us with flexibility for future financing transactions, equity compensation and other general corporate purposes, including potential acquisitions and strategic transactions, without the delay and expense of seeking further stockholder approval, except as may be required by applicable law or Nasdaq Listing Rules.
Effect of the Proposal
If the Second A&R Charter becomes effective, additional shares of authorized but unissued Common Stock will be available for issuance from time to time by our Board without further stockholder approval, except as may be required by applicable laws or Nasdaq Listing Rules. Any future issuance of additional shares of Common Stock could have a dilutive effect on the ownership interests and voting power of our existing stockholders and could adversely affect the market price of our Common Stock. The increase in authorized Common Stock will not, by itself, change the number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding, nor will it alter the rights of existing holders of our Common Stock. The Second A&R Charter would also make certain other technical, administrative and conforming changes to the Certificate of Incorporation, as more fully set forth in Appendix B.
Although the increase in authorized shares is not being proposed in response to any known effort to obtain control of the Company, the availability of additional authorized shares of Common Stock could, under certain circumstances, be construed as having an anti-takeover effect, including by permitting the Board to issue additional shares of Common Stock that could dilute the ownership or voting rights of persons seeking to obtain control of the Company. The Second A&R Charter is not part of a plan to adopt a series of anti-takeover provisions, and the Board has no present intention to use the additional authorized shares of Common Stock for such a purpose.
Effective Time
If Proposal No. 4 is approved by our stockholders and the conditions described above are satisfied, we will file the Second A&R Charter with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, and it will become effective upon such filing.

Because Proposal No. 4 is a “non-routine” matter under the applicable stock exchange rules, if your shares are held by a broker and you do not give the broker specific instructions on how to vote your shares on Proposal No. 4, your broker may not vote your shares at its discretion on Proposal No. 4. “Abstentions” and “broker non-votes” are not considered “votes cast” and therefore will have no effect on this proposal.

PROPOSAL NO. 5
 
APPROVAL OF A REVERSE STOCK SPLIT OF OUR COMMON STOCK
Overview
Our Board has unanimously approved, and is recommending to our stockholders for their approval, amendments to our Certificate of Incorporation in the form attached to this Proxy Statement as Appendix C (the “Reverse Stock Split Amendment”) to effect a reverse stock split of our issued shares of Common Stock, within a range of 1-for-2 to 1-for-15 (the “Range”), with the exact reverse stock split ratio within the Range to be determined by our Board of Directors in its sole discretion and to become effective at a time determined by our Board of Directors prior to the one-year anniversary of the date of the Annual Meeting (the “Reverse Stock Split”), and the remainder of which reverse stock split ratios will be abandoned.
If this proposal is approved, the Board will have the authority, without further action by our stockholders, to select the specific ratio within the Range, to determine whether and when to effect the Reverse Stock Split prior to the one-year anniversary of the date of the Annual Meeting, and to abandon the remaining ratios within the Range.
Reasons for the Reverse Stock Split
Our Board believes that the Reverse Stock Split is advisable and in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders in order to provide the Board with flexibility to proactively manage the Company’s capital structure and to help ensure the Company’s continued compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rules, including the $1.00 minimum bid price requirement under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2). Although Common Stock currently satisfies this requirement, our Board believes it is prudent to seek stockholder approval for the Reverse Stock Split at this time so that the Board has the ability to implement it, at a ratio of its choosing within the Range prior to the one-year anniversary of the date of the Annual Meeting, if and when it determines that doing so would be in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders, including to help maintain the Company’s continued eligibility for listing on Nasdaq and to provide the Company with greater flexibility to pursue future financing transactions and attract new investors, without the delay and expense of seeking further stockholder approval at a later time.
Board Discretion to Implement the Reverse Stock Split
The Board believes that approval of the Range, rather than a single fixed ratio, provides the Board with the flexibility to implement the Reverse Stock Split in a manner designed to maximize the anticipated benefits for the Company and its stockholders in light of prevailing market conditions at the time of implementation. In determining the ratio within the Range prior to the one-year anniversary of the date of the Annual Meeting, if any, following receipt of stockholder approval at the Annual Meeting, the Board will consider a number of factors, including:
•
the historical and projected trading prices of our Common Stock;
•
the continued listing requirements of Nasdaq;
•
the number of shares of our Common Stock outstanding;
•
the anticipated impact of a particular ratio on the trading market and liquidity for our Common Stock; and
•
prevailing general market and economic conditions.
Notwithstanding approval of this proposal by our stockholders, the Board may, in its sole discretion, abandon the Reverse Stock Split in its entirety and not file the Reverse Stock Split Amendment with any of the ratios within the Range if it determines that the Reverse Stock Split is no longer in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders.
Effects of the Reverse Stock Split
If implemented, the Reverse Stock Split will reduce the number of issued shares of our Common Stock in accordance with the exact ratio determined by the Board within the Range. The Reverse Stock Split will affect all holders of Common Stock uniformly and will not affect any stockholder’s percentage ownership interest in the Company, except for changes resulting from the treatment of fractional shares as described below. The Reverse Stock Split will not change the par value of our Common Stock, which will remain $0.01 per share, and will not change the number of shares of Common Stock or preferred stock that we are authorized to issue.
21

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Effect on Options, Warrants and Other Convertible Securities
Upon effectiveness of the Reverse Stock Split, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise or conversion of our outstanding equity awards, warrants and other convertible securities, and the applicable exercise or conversion prices, will be proportionately adjusted in accordance with their terms.
Fractional Shares
No fractional shares will be issued in connection with the Reverse Stock Split. Stockholders who would otherwise be entitled to receive a fractional share will receive cash in lieu of such fractional share.
Accounting Treatment
If approved by our stockholders at the Annual Meeting and effected, the Reverse Stock Split will not affect the par value of our Common Stock. As a result, on the effective date of the Reverse Stock Split, the stated capital on our balance sheet attributable to our Common Stock will be reduced in proportion to the ratio selected by the Board, and the additional paid-in capital account will be correspondingly increased.
Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences
The following is a discussion of certain U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Reverse Stock Split to holders of our Common Stock that hold their shares as capital assets. This discussion addresses the tax consequences only to a U.S. holder, which is a beneficial owner of our Common Stock that is either:
•
an individual citizen or resident of the United States;
•
a corporation, or other entity taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, created or organized in or under the laws of the United States or any state thereof or the District of Columbia;
•
an estate, the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income taxation regardless of its source; or
•
a trust, if: (i) a court within the United States is able to exercise primary jurisdiction over its administration and one or more U.S. persons has the authority to control all of its substantial decisions or (ii) it was in existence before August 20, 1996 and a valid election is in place under applicable Treasury regulations to treat such trust as a U.S. person for U.S. federal income tax purposes.
This discussion is based on the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “IRC”), U.S. Treasury regulations, administrative rulings and judicial authority, all as in effect as of the date of this Proxy Statement. Subsequent developments in U.S. federal income tax law, including changes in law or differing interpretations, which may be applied retroactively, could have a material effect on the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Reverse Stock Split.
This discussion does not address all of the tax consequences that may be relevant to any particular investor, including tax considerations that arise from rules of general application to all taxpayers or to certain classes of taxpayers or that are generally assumed to be known by investors. This discussion also does not address the tax consequences to (i) persons that may be subject to special treatment under U.S. federal income tax law, such as banks, insurance companies, thrift institutions, regulated investment companies, real estate investment trusts, tax-exempt organizations, U.S. expatriates, persons subject to the alternative minimum tax, persons whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar, partnerships or other pass-through entities, traders in securities that elect to mark to market and dealers in securities or currencies, (ii) persons that hold our Common Stock as part of a position in a “straddle” or as part of a “hedging transaction,” “conversion transaction” or other integrated investment transaction for federal income tax purposes or (iii) persons that do not hold our Common Stock as “capital assets” (generally, property held for investment). This discussion does not address U.S. holders who beneficially own common stock through a “foreign financial institution” (as defined in Section 1471(d)(4) of the IRC) or certain other non-U.S. entities specified in Section 1472 of the IRC. This discussion does not address tax considerations arising under any state, local or foreign laws, or under federal estate or gift tax laws.
If a partnership (or other entity classified as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes) is the beneficial owner of our Common Stock, the U.S. federal income tax treatment of a partner in the partnership will generally depend on the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership. Partnerships that hold our Common Stock, and partners in such partnerships, should consult their own tax advisors regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of a Reverse Stock Split.
22

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Each holder should consult his, her or its own tax advisors concerning the particular U.S. federal tax consequences of a Reverse Stock Split, as well as the consequences arising under the laws of any other taxing jurisdiction, including any foreign, state, or local income tax consequences.
The proposed Reverse Stock Split is intended to qualify as a “reorganization” under Section 368 of the IRC that is treated as a “recapitalization” for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Assuming the Reverse Stock Split qualifies as a reorganization, except as described below with respect to cash received in lieu of fractional shares (which fractional shares are generally treated as received in the Reverse Stock Split and then exchanged for cash), a U.S. holder of Common Stock generally should not recognize gain or loss upon the proposed Reverse Stock Split. Accordingly, the aggregate tax basis of the U.S. holder in the shares of Common Stock received in the Reverse Stock Split, including any fractional share treated as received and then exchanged for cash, should equal the U.S. holder’s aggregate tax basis in the shares of Common Stock that such U.S. holder owned immediately prior to the Reverse Stock Split. In addition, a U.S. holder’s holding period in the shares of Common Stock received should include the holding period in the shares of Common Stock surrendered in the Reverse Stock Split. Treasury regulations provide detailed rules for allocating the tax basis and holding period of the shares of Common Stock surrendered to the shares of Common Stock received in a recapitalization pursuant to the Reverse Stock Split. Holders of shares of Common Stock acquired on different dates and at different prices should consult their tax advisors regarding the allocation of the tax basis and holding period of such shares.
Generally, a U.S. holder who receives cash in lieu of a fractional share of the Common Stock pursuant to the proposed Reverse Stock Split should be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as having received a fractional share pursuant to the Reverse Stock Split and then as having received cash in exchange for the fractional share and should generally recognize capital gain or loss in an amount equal to the difference between the amount of cash received and the portion of the U.S. holder’s tax basis that is allocable to such fractional share of the Common Stock. Such capital gain or loss generally will be long-term capital gain or loss if the U.S. holder’s holding period in the fractional share is more than one year as of the effective date of the proposed Reverse Stock Split. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations. Special rules under Section 302 of the IRC may apply to cause all or a portion of the cash received in lieu of a fractional share to be treated as a distribution under Section 301 of the IRC (rather than as a sale or exchange) with respect to certain U.S. holders who own more than a minimal amount of Common Stock and whose proportionate interest in the Company is not reduced (after taking into account certain constructive ownership rules), or who exercise more than a minimal degree of voting or other type of control over the affairs of the Company. U.S. holders of our Common Stock should consult their own tax advisors to determine the extent to which their receipt of cash in lieu of fractional shares could be treated as a dividend based on their particular circumstances.
Payments of cash made in lieu of a fractional share of the Common Stock may, under certain circumstances, be subject to information reporting and U.S. “backup withholding.” To avoid backup withholding, each holder of our shares of the Common Stock that does not otherwise establish an exemption should furnish its taxpayer identification number and comply with the applicable certification procedures. Backup withholding is not an additional tax and any amounts withheld will be allowed as a credit against the holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability and may entitle such holder to a refund, provided the required information is timely furnished to the U.S. Internal Revenue Service.
THE FOREGOING IS INTENDED ONLY AS A DISCUSSION OF CERTAIN FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE REVERSE STOCK SPLIT. EACH HOLDER SHOULD CONSULT HIS, HER OR ITS OWN TAX ADVISORS CONCERNING THE PARTICULAR TAX CONSEQUENCES OF A REVERSE STOCK SPLIT.
Appraisal Rights
Under Delaware law, our stockholders are not entitled to appraisal or dissenters’ rights with respect to the Reverse Stock Split.
Required Vote
Approval of Proposal No. 5 requires that the votes cast “For” the Reverse Stock Split by the holders of shares of Common Stock and Series A Convertible Preferred Stock entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting (voting together as a single class) exceed the votes cast by such holders “Against” the Reverse Stock Split. “Abstentions” and “broker non-votes” are not considered “votes cast” and therefore will have no effect on the outcome of this proposal.

ADVISORY VOTE ON THE FREQUENCY OF FUTURE ADVISORY VOTES ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION (“SAY ON FREQUENCY”)
Pursuant to Section 14A of the Exchange Act, we are providing our stockholders the opportunity to vote, on a non-binding, advisory basis, on how frequently we should include an advisory vote on executive compensation, such as the say-on-pay vote described in Proposal No. 7 below, in our future proxy statements. Stockholders may indicate whether they would prefer an advisory vote on executive compensation once every one, two or three years, or may abstain from voting on this proposal.
After careful consideration, our Board recommends that future stockholder advisory votes on executive compensation be conducted every year. Our Board believes that an annual advisory vote on executive compensation will allow our stockholders to provide us with their direct input on our compensation philosophy, policies and practices as disclosed in the proxy statement every year, which is consistent with our efforts to engage in an ongoing dialogue with our stockholders on executive compensation matters.
This vote is advisory, which means that this vote on the frequency of future advisory votes on executive compensation is not binding on the Company, our Board of Directors, or our Compensation Committee. Stockholders may vote for a frequency of every year, every two years, or every three years, or may abstain from voting on this proposal. Notwithstanding the Board’s recommendation and the outcome of the vote, our Board may decide that it is in the best interests of our stockholders and the Company to hold future advisory votes on executive compensation more or less frequently than the frequency receiving the most votes cast by our stockholders at the Annual Meeting.
Vote Required
The frequency (every year, every two years, or every three years) that receives the greatest number of votes properly cast by the holders of shares of Common Stock and Series A Convertible Preferred Stock entitled to vote and present in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting (voting together as a single class) will be considered the frequency preferred by our stockholders. “Abstentions” and “broker non-votes” are not considered “votes properly cast” and therefore will have no effect on the outcome of the vote on this proposal.
THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE FOR THE OPTION OF “EVERY YEAR” AS THE FREQUENCY FOR FUTURE STOCKHOLDER ADVISORY VOTES ON THE COMPENSATION OF OUR NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS.

PROPOSAL NO. 7
 
ADVISORY VOTE ON A RESOLUTION RELATING TO NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICER COMPENSATION
Pursuant to Section 14A of the Exchange Act, we provide our stockholders with the opportunity to vote to approve, on a non-binding, advisory basis, the compensation of our named executive officers as disclosed in this Proxy Statement in accordance with the compensation disclosure rules of the SEC.
Our executive compensation programs are designed to attract, motivate, and retain our named executive officers, who are critical to our success, and to reward our named executive officers for the achievement of short-term and long-term strategic and operational goals and the achievement of increased total stockholder return. We seek to closely align the interests of our named executive officers with the interests of our stockholders, and our Compensation Committee reviews, at least annually, named executive officer compensation to ensure such compensation is consistent with our goals.
Vote Required
This vote is advisory, which means that the vote on executive compensation is not binding on the Company, our Board of Directors, or the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. The affirmative vote of a majority of the votes properly cast by the holders of shares of Common Stock and Series A Convertible Preferred Stock entitled to vote and present in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting (voting together as a single class) will be required to approve this advisory proposal. “Abstentions” and “broker non-votes” are not considered “votes properly cast” and therefore will have no effect on the outcome of this proposal.
The vote on this proposal is not intended to address any specific element of compensation, but rather relates to the overall compensation of our named executive officers, as described in this Proxy Statement in accordance with the compensation disclosure rules of the SEC. To the extent there is a significant vote against our named executive officer compensation as disclosed in this Proxy Statement, the Compensation Committee will evaluate whether any actions are necessary to address our stockholders’ concerns.
Accordingly, we ask our stockholders to vote on the following resolution at the Annual Meeting:
“RESOLVED, that the Company’s stockholders approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of the named executive officers, as disclosed in the Company’s Proxy Statement for the 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders pursuant to the compensation disclosure rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, including the Summary Compensation Table, and the other related disclosure.”
THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS A VOTE “FOR” THE APPROVAL OF THE RESOLUTION RELATING TO THE COMPENSATION OF OUR NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS, AS DISCLOSED IN THIS PROXY STATEMENT.

NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICER COMPENSATION
Compensation Philosophy and Practices
We believe that the performance of our named executive officers significantly impacts our ability to achieve our corporate goals. We, therefore, place considerable importance on the design and administration of our named executive officer compensation program. This program is intended to enhance stockholder value by attracting, motivating and retaining qualified individuals to perform at the highest levels and to contribute to our growth and success. Our named executive officer compensation program is designed to provide compensation opportunities that are tied to individual and corporate performance.
Our compensation packages are also designed to be competitive in our industry. The Compensation Committee from time-to-time consults with other advisors in designing our compensation program, including in evaluating the competitiveness of individual compensation packages and in relation to our corporate goals.
Our overall compensation philosophy has been to pay our executive officers an annual base salary and to provide opportunities, through cash and equity incentives, to provide higher compensation if certain key performance goals are satisfied. Our Compensation Committee continues to believe that keeping executives’ interests aligned with those of our stockholders is critical to driving toward achievement of long-term goals of both our stockholders and the Company.
Summary Compensation Table
As a smaller reporting company as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act, we are required to disclose compensation information for our principal executive officer and up to our two most highly compensated executive officers, other than the principal executive officer, who were serving as executive officers as of December 31, 2025, provided that no disclosure is required for any executive officer, other than the principal executive officer, whose total compensation does not exceed $100,000. For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, our named executive officers consisted of David Lazar and Li Wai Chung, each of whom served as our principal executive officer during the year. Cao Yu, our Chief Financial Officer, was our only other executive officer serving as of December 31, 2025. Ms. Cao’s total compensation for fiscal year 2025 was $82,187, which did not exceed the $100,000 threshold applicable to non-PEO executive officers under the SEC’s smaller reporting company rules, and accordingly her disclosure is not required. Nevertheless, because Ms. Cao was our sole executive officer other than our principal executive officers, and in the interest of providing stockholders with a complete and transparent picture of our executive compensation arrangements, we have elected to voluntarily include Ms. Cao’s compensation in the Summary Compensation Table below.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Narrative Disclosure to Summary Compensation Table
The following narrative provides a description of the material elements of compensation for our named executive officers. We do not have formal employment agreements with any of our named executive officers, and their compensation is determined at the discretion of our Board and/or Compensation Committee.
Base Salary
Base salaries are intended to provide a fixed level of annual cash compensation to our named executive officers. In determining base salary levels, we consider various factors, including the individual’s responsibilities, experience, and performance, as well as the competitive marketplace for executive talent.
Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year-End
There were no outstanding equity awards that had been previously awarded to any of our named executive officers and which remained outstanding as of December 31, 2025.
Timing of Equity Awards
Our Board and Compensation Committee do not take material nonpublic information into account when determining the timing and terms of equity grants. We do not have a policy or practice to time stock options based on the release of material nonpublic information. During fiscal year 2025, the Company did not grant equity awards to its named executive officers during the four business days prior to or the one business day following the filing of its periodic reports or the filing or furnishing of a Form 8-K that discloses material nonpublic information.
Clawback Policy
As required by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 and the rules of Nasdaq and the SEC, we maintain an Incentive-Based Compensation Recovery Policy (the “Clawback Policy”), which requires that certain incentive compensation paid to any current or former executive officer, including our named executive officers, will be subject to recoupment if (a) the incentive compensation was calculated based on financial statements that were required to be restated due to material noncompliance with financial reporting requirements, without regard to any fault or misconduct, and (b) that noncompliance resulted in overpayment of the incentive compensation within the three fiscal years preceding the fiscal year in which the restatement was required. Incentive compensation subject to the Clawback Policy consists of compensation that is granted, earned, or vested based wholly or in part upon the attainment of a financial reporting measure (as defined in the rules implementing such requirement), including stock price and total stockholder return.

The dollar amounts reported are the amounts of total compensation reported in the “Total” column of the Summary Compensation Table (the “SCT”) for David Lazar (former Chief Executive Officer) for 2025, Jeremy Hitchcock (former Chief Executive Officer) for 2024 and Mehul Patel (former Chief Executive Officer) for 2023. Because the Company did not grant equity-based compensation to Jeremy Hitchcock or Mehul Patel or maintain defined benefit pension plans during the periods presented, the SCT Total for Jeremy Hitchcock and Mehul Patel was not subject to any such adjustments. Further, the equity award granted to David Lazar was fully-vested as of the date of grant, resulting in the fair value of the equity award as of the date of vesting, calculated pursuant to ASC 718, being equal to $402,250, the value of the equity award reported in the SCT. Accordingly, the Compensation Actually Paid for each PEO is the same as the total compensation reported in the SCT for each applicable year.

The dollar amounts reported are the amounts of total compensation reported in the “Total” column of the SCT for Li Wai Chung for 2025, David Lazar for 2024 and Jeremy Hitchcock for 2023. Because the Company did not grant equity-based compensation to Li Wai Chung or Jeremy Hitchcock or maintain defined benefit pension plans during the periods presented, the SCT Total for Li Wai Chung and Jeremy Hitchcock was not subject to any such adjustments. Further, the equity award granted to David Lazar was fully-vested as of the date of grant, resulting in the fair value of the equity award as of the date of vesting, calculated pursuant to ASC 718, being equal to $402,250, the value of the equity award reported in the SCT. Accordingly, the Compensation Actually Paid for each PEO is the same as the total compensation reported in the SCT for each applicable year.
(3)
Because the Company did not grant equity-based compensation to non-PEO NEOs or maintain defined benefit pension plans during the periods presented, the SCT Total was not subject to any such adjustments. Accordingly, the Average Compensation Actually Paid to non-PEO NEOs is the same as the average total compensation reported in the SCT for each applicable year.
(4)
Cumulative Total Shareholder Return is calculated based on a fixed $100 investment in the Company’s common stock on December 30, 2022, which was the market close on the last trading day before the earliest fiscal year in the table, through the end of the applicable fiscal year.
During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, the Company did not utilize any financial performance measures to link executive compensation actually paid to the Company’s performance. Accordingly, the compensation actually paid to our named executive officers as reflected in the table above consists primarily of base salary and standard benefits. While the Company’s Net Income and Total Shareholder Return fluctuated during these periods as shown in the table, these fluctuations did not result in adjustments to executive compensation.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT
The following table sets forth certain information, as of October 1, 2026, that are beneficially owned by (i) each person or entity known to us to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of the outstanding Common Stock; (ii) each named executive officer and director of our Company; and (iii) all executive officers and directors as a group. Information relating to beneficial ownership of Common Stock by our principal stockholders is based upon information furnished by each person using “beneficial ownership” concepts under the rules of the SEC. Under these rules, a person is deemed to be a beneficial owner of a security if that person has or shares voting power, which includes the power to vote or to direct the voting of such security, or investment power, which includes the power to dispose of or to direct the disposition of such security. The person is also deemed to be a beneficial owner of any security of which that person has a right to acquire beneficial ownership within 60 days. To calculate a stockholder’s percentage of beneficial ownership of Common Stock, we must include in the numerator and denominator those shares of Common Stock underlying convertible securities that such stockholder is considered to beneficially own. Shares of Common Stock underlying convertible securities held by other stockholders, however, are disregarded in this calculation. Therefore, the denominator used in calculating beneficial ownership of each of the stockholders may be different.
Under the rules of the SEC, more than one person may be deemed to be a beneficial owner of the same securities, and a person may be deemed to be a beneficial owner of securities as to which he/she may not have any pecuniary beneficial interest.
The information contained in this table is based upon information received from or on behalf of the named individuals or from publicly available information and filings by or on behalf of those persons with the SEC.
Unless otherwise indicated, (i) we believe that all persons named in the following table have sole voting and investment power with respect to all shares of our Common Stock shown as beneficially owned by such stockholder and (ii) the business address of each of the following persons is c/o FiEE, Inc., 3-33, 2-chome Utajima, Nishiyodogawa District, Osaka, Japan.

For the management of the business and for the conduct of the affairs of the Corporation it is provided that:
A. Except as otherwise expressly provided by the DGCL or this Amended and Restated Certificate, the business and affairs of the Corporation shall be managed by or under the direction of the Board of Directors.
