as the case may be, have such rights, preferences, privileges and voting powers, and limitations and restrictions, and limitations and restrictions thereof, taken as a whole, as are not materially less favorable to the holders thereof than the

in whole or in part, at any time if thirty percent or less of the Series A Preferred Shares remain outstanding, at a cash redemption
price equal to the stated amount, together with an amount equal to all accrued dividends to, but excluding, the redemption date.
Holders of Series A Preferred Shares shall be entitled to
receive, when, as and if declared by the Company’s board of directors, but only out of funds legally available therefor, cumulative cash dividends at 1.00%
per annum of the stated amount and no more, or, at our election, additional shares of this Series issued to holders in lieu of cash dividends (“PIK Shares”) for each outstanding Series A Preferred Share equal to the Annual Rate divided by the
stated amount, payable quarterly in arrears on the 15th day of each January, April, July and October, respectively, in each year, beginning on April 15, 2025.
The Series A Preferred Shares are convertible, at their holder’s option, to common shares at any time and from time to time from
and after the second anniversary of April 14, 2025. The conversion price for any conversion of the Series A Preferred Shares shall be the lower of (i) 200%
of the volume-weighted average price (“VWAP”) of our common shares over the
consecutive trading day period commencing on and
including April 14, 2025, and (ii) the VWAP of our common shares over the consecutive trading day period expiring on the trading
day immediately prior to the date of delivery of written notice of the conversion.In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary, before
any distribution or payment out of the Company’s assets may be made to or set aside for the holders of any junior stock, holders of Series A Preferred Shares will be entitled to receive out of our assets legally available for distribution to our
shareholders an amount equal to the stated amount per share of $25, together with an amount equal to all accrued dividends to the date
of payment whether or not earned or declared.
The Series A Preferred Shares have been classified in Mezzanine equity as per ASC 480-10-S99 “Distinguishing liabilities from Equity
– SEC Materials” as they are in essence redeemable at the option of the holder as Mr. Panagiotidis, the Chief Executive Officer and controlling shareholder of Toro and Robin, who can effectively determine the timing of the redemption of the Series
A Preferred Shares.
As of June 30, 2025, the net value of the Series A Preferred
Shares (the “Mezzanine Equity”) amounted to $25,877,180 comprising the fair value measurement of the Series A Preferred Shares on
initial recognition based on a third party valuation of $25,942,180, less issuance costs of $65,000 and is separately presented as ‘Mezzanine Equity’ in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. As the Series A Preferred Shares are not considered probable of becoming redeemable, due to the specific threshold (as described above) and absence of a mandatory
redemption date or obligation, no subsequent adjustment of the amount presented in Mezzanine equity is required as per ASC 480-10-S99. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company paid to Toro a dividend amounting to $1,389 on the Series A Preferred Shares for the period from April 14, 2025 to April 14, 2025. The accrued amount for the period from April 15, 2025 to
June 30, 2025 (included in the dividend period ended July 14, 2025) amounted to $105,555.
