Item
3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.
As
previously disclosed, on September 30, 2025 SHF Holdings, Inc. (“SHF”) entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with
the investors party thereto, pursuant to which, among other things, SHF issued to such investors shares of SHF’s Series B Convertible
Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Series B Preferred Stock”).
On
October 22, 2026, as a result of the issuances described in the following sentence, the aggregate number of shares of Class A common
stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Common Stock”), issued to holders of the Series B Preferred Stock in unregistered
transactions from July 1, 2026 through October 23, 2026 (the “Issuance Period”) exceeded five percent (5%) of the total
number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding as of June 30, 2026. During the Issuance Period, SHF issued a total of
23,914,988 shares of Common Stock upon the conversion of an aggregate of 6,545 shares of Series B Preferred Stock in accordance with
the terms of the Certificate of Designation of Preferences, Rights and Limitations of the Series B Preferred Stock (the
“Certificate of Designation”). The shares of Common Stock were issued at an average conversion price of $0.2737, ranging
from $0.1210 and $1.4053 per share, reflecting adjustments to the conversion price pursuant to the terms of the
Certificate of Designation as a result of SHF’s recent reverse stock split. The conversion price of the Series B Preferred Stock is currently set at
$0.1210 pursuant to the terms of the Certificate of Designation. SHF received no additional consideration in
connection with such conversions. As of October 23, 2026, SHF had 24,942,735 shares of Common Stock issued and
outstanding.
The
issuances of Common Stock described in this Item 3.02 were exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the “Securities Act”) in reliance on Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act. No commission or other remuneration
was paid or given, directly or indirectly, for soliciting the exchanges.
The
foregoing description of the Certificate of Designation does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference
to the full text of the Certificate of Designation, a copy of which was filed as Exhibit 3.1 to SHF’s Current Report on Form 8-K
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on October 3, 2025, and is incorporated herein by reference.
Item

Safe
Harbor Financial Signs Non-Binding Term Sheet to Combine with Opifex Media,
Creating
a Nasdaq-Listed Diversified Holding Company
Combined
company would operate two distinct businesses under one parent: Opifex’s creator-economy platform and Safe Harbor’s established
cannabis financial services business
Technology
pioneer Greg Newman to serve as Chairman of the combined company
Transaction
designed to support Safe Harbor’s plan to maintain its Nasdaq listing; Nasdaq has granted a second compliance period through April
19, 2027
DENVER,
October 26, 2026 — SHF Holdings, Inc., d/b/a Safe Harbor (“Safe Harbor” ) (Nasdaq: SHFS), a fintech
platform serving the banking, lending and financial services needs of the regulated cannabis and hemp industries, announced that it has
signed a non-binding term sheet with Opifex Media Inc. (“Opifex”), a Beverly Hills, California-based media
holding company focused on the creator economy, for a proposed business combination in which Opifex would become a wholly owned subsidiary
of Safe Harbor (the “Proposed Transaction”). Following the closing, the combined company would remain listed on The Nasdaq
Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) under a new name to be determined.
The
Proposed Transaction is intended to create a public holding company with two distinct primary businesses, each pursuing its own growth
strategy. Opifex would bring a portfolio of creator-economy businesses across publishing, music and video. Safe Harbor would continue
to operate its cannabis-focused fintech platform and serve its clients and financial institution partners without interruption. For stockholders,
the Proposed Transaction is designed to add a new growth platform, support Safe Harbor’s plan to maintain its Nasdaq listing, and
create the opportunity for long-term value.
“Today’s
announcement is an important step for Safe Harbor and our stockholders,” said Terry Mendez, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
Officer of Safe Harbor. “This proposed combination is intended to bring a growth-oriented creator-economy platform into our public
company and to meet Nasdaq listing standards at closing. Greg Newman brings decades of experience building and scaling technology companies
to the combined company’s board, and we believe this combination creates a compelling path forward for our stockholders.”
About
Opifex and the Creator Economy Opportunity
Opifex
acquires, operates and grows established creator-economy businesses across publishing, music and video, connecting them through a shared
creator and data platform. The company focuses on verified human content and uses AI to improve operational efficiency, not to create
content, while helping creators monetize through audiences, brands, subscriptions, licensing and media campaigns. By integrating these
businesses, Opifex seeks to create a unified ecosystem that expands creator reach, strengthens first-party data and builds multiple revenue
streams from the same creator-economy infrastructure.
According
to Goldman Sachs Research, the creator economy was approximately $250 billion in 2023 and could reach approximately $480 billion
by 2027. Opifex believes creator-led monetization continues to take share across advertising, commerce and subscriptions, and that high-quality,
verified human content is becoming increasingly valuable as AI developers enter into content licensing agreements with publishers.
Opifex
is led by Chairman Greg Newman. Mr. Newman is a serial entrepreneur and technology pioneer whose four-decade career spans foundational
innovations in digital video and e-commerce, early backing of Baidu, and leadership of ventures shaping space power, the creator economy,
sustainable energy and consumer technology. A former Fortune 500 executive and accomplished investor, Mr. Newman has helped build companies
from the earliest days of the internet through major exits and global growth, while continuing to lead ambitious businesses at the forefront
of innovation. His experience includes the founding team of Macromedia, leading QuickTime at Apple, building the Oracle Commerce Server,
serving as an early institutional investor and board director of Baidu through its 2005 Nasdaq IPO, and co-founding C2B Technologies,
which was acquired by Inktomi in 1998.
“The
creator economy represents a significant opportunity to build a portfolio of complementary media businesses with established audiences
and valuable intellectual property,” said Mr. Newman. “Our strategy is to acquire and grow platforms that serve creators,
connect their audiences and create additional opportunities for monetization. We believe a combination with Safe Harbor provides the
right public-company foundation for that vision, and we are committed to supporting the continued operation of Safe Harbor’s cannabis
financial services business.”
Safe
Harbor’s Cannabis Financial Services Business Continues
Safe
Harbor will continue to operate its cannabis-focused fintech platform, delivering compliant banking, lending and business solutions to
cannabis operators, as well as the infrastructure and compliance services financial institutions need to operate and scale cannabis banking
programs. Since inception, Safe Harbor has supported the processing of more than $36 billion in cannabis-related transactions across
41 states and territories. The Proposed Transaction is not expected to change the services Safe Harbor provides to its clients and financial
institution partners.
Key
Terms of the Non-Binding Term Sheet
Structure.
Opifex would merge with a newly formed, wholly owned subsidiary of Safe Harbor, and Opifex security holders would receive newly issued
shares of Safe Harbor’s common stock, or, if the parties agree after consulting with Nasdaq, a combination of common stock and
non-voting convertible preferred stock. The Proposed Transaction is expected to be accounted for as a reverse acquisition.
Ownership.
At closing, Opifex security holders would own 85% and Safe Harbor’s existing stakeholders (e.g., holders of common stock, Series
B Preferred Stock (on an as-converted basis), warrants, options and restricted stock units) would own 15% of the combined company on
a fully diluted basis, before any capital raised at closing and any equity incentive plan reserve. However, the Safe Harbor allocation
described above may be adjusted within a range of 12.5% to 17.5% to reflect Safe Harbor’s valuation at closing, as supported by
an independent fairness opinion.
Valuation.
Opifex will deliver a proposed valuation, together with its financial statements and supporting analysis, within 15 business days.
The term sheet contemplates an Opifex valuation of not less than $50 million, subject to an independent valuation and fairness opinion
delivered to Safe Harbor’s Board of Directors.
Contingent
Value Right. The parties intend to negotiate a contingent value right for Safe Harbor’s existing stakeholders relating to Safe
Harbor’s cannabis financial services business as part of the definitive agreements.
Equity
Line of Credit. Safe Harbor does not intend to draw on its existing equity line of credit with CREO Capital until the closing of
the Proposed Transaction.
Series
B Preferred Securities. The term sheet contemplates the parties making arrangements under which all outstanding Series B Preferred
Securities would convert into common stock at closing. These arrangements require entering into agreements with, and obtaining consents
from, and waivers of Series B holders of transaction documents.
Capital
and Nasdaq Listing. The parties intend for the combined company to meet applicable Nasdaq listing requirements at closing, including
through a registered equity financing to investors who are not affiliates of either party, if necessary, and a direct investment of up
to $1.0 million, subject to stockholder approval. Safe Harbor would seek stockholder approval of a reverse stock split to the extent
needed to meet Nasdaq’s bid price requirement.
Equity
Incentive Plan. At closing, the combined company would adopt an equity incentive plan, subject to stockholder approval, with a reserve
equal to 10% of fully diluted shares.
Governance.
The combined company’s five-member board would include Mr. Newman as Chairman, one additional Opifex designee, two independent
directors designated by Opifex and approved by Safe Harbor’s Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, and one director from
Safe Harbor. Opifex would designate the combined company’s officers.
Timing
and Conditions. The parties intend to negotiate a definitive agreement and to close the Proposed Transaction before April 19, 2027.
Closing would be subject to, among other things, the negotiation of a definitive agreement, satisfactory due diligence findings by both
parties, the required consents and agreements with holders of the Series B Securities, the completion of Opifex’s audited financial
statements, an independent valuation and fairness opinion, Safe Harbor stockholder approval, Nasdaq approval, completion of any required
financing and other customary conditions. The term sheet includes a 45-day exclusivity period.
As
previously announced, on October 20, 2026, Nasdaq granted Safe Harbor an additional 180-day compliance period, through April 19, 2027,
to regain compliance with the $1.00 minimum bid price requirement.
The
independent members of the Board of Directors of Safe Harbor have approved entry into the term sheet. The term sheet is non-binding,
except for certain customary provisions such as exclusivity and confidentiality, and does not obligate either party to complete the Proposed
Transaction. There can be no assurance that a definitive agreement will be executed or that the Proposed Transaction will be completed
on the terms described above or at all.
