Dear Stockholder:

You are cordially invited to attend the 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders of Fabric.AI, Inc. to be held at 10:00 a.m., New York time, on June 12, 2026. The annual meeting will be conducted in a virtual format only via live webcast at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/FABC2026.

We have decided to hold this annual meeting virtually via live webcast on the internet because hosting a virtual annual meeting enables greater stockholder attendance and participation from any location around the world, improves meeting efficiency and our ability to communicate effectively with our stockholders, and reduces the cost and environmental impact of the annual meeting. You will be able to vote and submit questions electronically prior to the annual meeting by visiting www.proxyvote.com, and during the annual meeting by visiting www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/FABC2026. Specific instructions for accessing the meeting are provided in the enclosed Notice of Annual Meeting of Stockholders and proxy card or voting instruction form you received.

Whether or not you expect to be present at the annual meeting, please vote as promptly as possible to ensure your representation and the presence of a quorum at the annual meeting. As an alternative to voting during the annual meeting, you may vote online, by phone or by mail by following the instructions on the enclosed proxy card. Voting online, by phone or by written proxy ensures your representation at the annual meeting regardless of whether you attend the virtual meeting. If your shares are held in the name of a broker, trust, bank or other nominee, and you receive these materials through your broker or through another intermediary, please complete and return the materials in accordance with the instructions provided to you by such broker or other intermediary or contact your broker directly in order to obtain a proxy issued to you by your nominee holder to attend the annual meeting and vote. Failure to do so may result in your shares not being eligible to be voted by proxy at the annual meeting. On behalf of the Board, I urge you to submit your proxy as soon as possible, even if you currently plan to attend the meeting virtually.

If you have any questions or need assistance with voting, please contact Joshua Silverman, our Chief Executive Officer, at 512-994-4917.

We are using the “Full Set Delivery” method of providing proxy materials to all stockholders of record. Because we have elected to utilize the “Full Set Delivery” option, we are delivering to all stockholders of record paper copies of the Proxy Statement and form of proxy, as well as providing access to the proxy materials on a publicly accessible website.

If you plan to virtually attend the annual meeting, you will need the 16-digit control number on the enclosed proxy card or on the instructions that accompany your proxy materials. The annual meeting will begin promptly at 10:00 a.m., New York time. Online check-in will begin at 9:45 a.m., New York time, and you should allow ample time for the online check-in procedures.

Thank you for your support of our company. I look forward to seeing you at the annual meeting.

ABOUT THE ANNUAL MEETING

What is a proxy?

A proxy is another person that you legally designate to vote your stock. If you designate someone as your proxy in a written document, that document is also called a “proxy” or a “proxy card.” If you are a street name holder, you must obtain a proxy from your broker or nominee in order to vote your shares during the Annual Meeting.

What is a proxy statement?

A proxy statement is a document that regulations of the SEC require that we give to you when we ask you to sign a proxy card to vote your stock at 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 of Stockholders, including the following:

Why is the Company asking stockholders to vote on Say on Pay Proposal at this Annual Meeting?

At our 2020 annual meeting of stockholders, we submitted to stockholders an advisory vote on whether an advisory vote on named executive officers compensation should be held every one, every two, or every three years. “Three years” was the frequency that received the highest number of votes. In light of such outcome, we have since have held an advisory vote on compensation of our named executive officers every three years. Since such last advisory vote took place in 2023, we are asking our stockholders to approve compensation of our named executive officers at this Annual Meeting.

Why is the Company asking stockholders to vote on Say on Frequency Proposal at this Annual Meeting?

In accordance with the Dodd-Frank Act and SEC rules, at least once every six years, we must provide our stockholders with the opportunity to indicate their preference regarding how frequently we should hold the vote on compensation of our named executive officers. We last held such say on frequency vote at our 2020 annual meeting of stockholders. Accordingly, at this Annual Meeting, we are asking our stockholders to indicate whether they would prefer an advisory vote on compensation of our name executive officers to be held every one year, every two years, or every three years.

What is “householding” and how does it affect me?

With respect to eligible stockholders who share a single address, we may send only one copy of our proxy materials to that address unless we receive instructions to the contrary from any stockholder at that address. This practice, known as “householding,” is designed to reduce our printing and postage costs. Eligible stockholders of record receiving multiple copies of our proxy materials can request householding by contacting us in the same manner. Stockholders who own shares through a bank, broker or other nominee can request householding by contacting the nominee.

We hereby undertake to deliver promptly, upon written or oral request, a copy of the proxy materials to a stockholder at a shared address to which a single copy of the document was delivered. If you are a stockholder of record, you may obtain additional copies at the same address you share with other stockholders by contacting Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc., either by calling (866) 540-7095, or by writing to Broadridge Householding Department, 51 Mercedes Way, Edgewood, New York 11717. If you are a beneficial owner and hold your shares in a brokerage or custody account, you can request additional copies of the proxy materials at the same address you share with other stockholders or you can request householding by notifying your broker, bank or other nominee.

What should I do if I receive more than one set of voting materials?

You may receive more than one set of voting materials, including multiple copies of this Proxy Statement and multiple proxy cards or voting instruction cards. For example, if you hold your shares in more than one brokerage account, you will receive a separate voting instruction card for each brokerage account in which you hold shares. Similarly, if you are a stockholder of record and hold shares in a brokerage account, you will receive a proxy card for shares held in your name and a voting instruction card for shares held in “street name.” Please follow the separate voting instructions that you received for your shares held in each of your different accounts to ensure that all your shares are voted.

What is the Record Date and what does it mean?

The record date to determine the stockholders entitled to notice of and to vote at the Annual Meeting is the close of business on April 22, 2026 (the “Record Date”). The Record Date is established by the Board as required by Delaware law. Only holders of record at the close of business on the Record Date of shares of Common Stock, Series H-6 Preferred Stock, Series H-7 Preferred Stock and Series I Preferred Stock are entitled to receive notice of the Annual Meeting. Only holders of record at the close of business on the Record Date of shares of Common Stock, Series H-6 Preferred Stock, subject to the terms of the Certificate of Designations, Preferences and Rights of the Series H-6 Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series H-6 Preferred Stock Certificate of Designations”), Series H-7 Preferred Stock, subject to the terms of the Certificate of Designations of Preferences and Rights of the Series H-7 Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series H-7 Certificate of Designations”), and Series I Preferred Stock, subject to the terms of the Certificate of Designations of Preferences and Rights of the Series I Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series I Certificate of Designations”) are entitled to vote, as a single class, at the Annual Meeting or at any postponement(s) or adjournment(s) of the Annual Meeting.

On the Record Date, there were 1,455,975 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote on the proposals described in this Proxy Statement.

On the Record Date, 50 shares of Series H-6 Preferred Stock were issued and outstanding, and after application of the limitation on voting rights and the beneficial ownership limitation pursuant to the terms of the Series H-6 Preferred Stock as set forth in the Series H-6 Preferred Stock Certificate of Designations, holders of Series H-6 Preferred Stock are entitled to an aggregate of approximately 110 votes on the proposals described in this Proxy Statement.

On the Record Date, 1,180 shares of Series H-7 Preferred Stock were issued and outstanding, and after application of the limitation on voting rights and the beneficial ownership limitation pursuant to the terms of the Series H-7 Preferred Stock as set forth in the Series H-7 Certificate of Designations, holders of Series H-7 Preferred Stock are entitled to an aggregate of approximately 12,806 votes on the proposals described in this Proxy Statement.

On the Record Date, 7,000 shares of Series I Preferred Stock were issued and outstanding, and after application of the limitation on voting rights and the beneficial ownership limitation pursuant to the terms of the Series I Preferred Stock as set forth in the Series I Certificate of Designations, holders of Series I Preferred Stock are entitled to an aggregate of approximately 645,041 votes on the proposals described in this Proxy Statement.

See “What are the voting rights of the stockholders?” below.

Who is entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting?

The holders of Common Stock, Series H-6 Preferred Stock, Series H-7 Preferred Stock and Series I Preferred Stock at the close of business on the Record Date are entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting, voting together as a single class on all matters described in this Proxy Statement.

What are the voting rights of the stockholders?

Each holder of Common Stock is entitled to one vote per share of Common Stock on all matters to be acted upon at the Annual Meeting. There is no cumulative voting.

Each holder of Series H-6 Preferred Stock is entitled to the number of votes equal to the number of whole shares of Common Stock into which the Series H-6 Preferred Stock beneficially owned by such holder is convertible as of the Record Date (subject to the 9.99% beneficial ownership limitations) on all matters presented to the stockholders, voting together with the holders of Common Stock as a single class; however, pursuant to the terms of the Series H-6 Preferred Stock as set forth in the Series H-6 Certificate of Designations, holders of Series H-6 Preferred Stock in no event shall be permitted to exercise a greater number of votes than such holders would have been entitled to cast if the Series H-6 Preferred Stock had immediately been converted into shares of Common Stock at a conversion price equal to $499.20. Accordingly, each holder of Series H-6 Preferred Stock is entitled to exercise votes for approximately 2.2 shares for each share of Series H-6 Preferred Stock held. There is no cumulative voting.

Each holder of Series H-7 Preferred Stock is entitled to the number of votes equal to the number of shares of Common Stock underlying the Series H-7 Preferred Stock beneficially owned by such holder determined by dividing the stated value of $1,000 by $92.16 per share on all matters presented to the stockholders, voting together with the holders of Common Stock as a single class. Accordingly, each holder of Series H-7 Preferred Stock is entitled to exercise votes for approximately 10.84 shares for each share of Series H-7 Preferred Stock held. There is no cumulative voting.

Each holder of Series I Preferred Stock is entitled to the number of votes equal to the number of shares of Common Stock underlying the Series I Preferred Stock beneficially owned by such holder determined by dividing the stated value of $1,000 by $7.628 per share on all matters presented to the stockholders, voting together with the holders of Common Stock as a single class. Accordingly, each holder of Series I Preferred Stock is entitled to exercise votes for approximately 226.33 shares for each share of Series I Preferred Stock held. There is no cumulative voting.

What constitutes a quorum for the Annual Meeting?

The holders of one-third of the voting power of the stock issued, outstanding and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting, present in person or represented by proxy, shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at all meetings of the stockholders. Votes of stockholders of record who are present at the Annual Meeting by virtual attendance or by proxy, abstentions and broker non-votes are counted for purposes of determining whether a quorum exists.

If a quorum is not present or represented at the Annual Meeting, the stockholders entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting, present in person or by proxy, or the chairperson of the Annual Meeting (if any), may adjourn the Annual Meeting from time to time without notice or other announcement until a quorum is present or represented.

What is the difference between a stockholder of record and a “street name” holder?

If your shares are registered directly in your name with Equiniti Trust Company LLC, our stock transfer agent, you are considered the stockholder of record with respect to those shares. The proxy materials have been sent directly to you by us.

If your shares are held in a stock brokerage account or by a bank or other nominee, the nominee is considered the record holder of those shares. You are considered the beneficial owner of these shares, and your shares are held in “street name.” The proxy materials have been forwarded to you by your nominee. As the beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your nominee concerning how to vote your shares by using the voting instructions they included in the mailing or by following their instructions for voting by telephone or the Internet.

What is a broker non-vote?

Broker non-votes occur when shares are held indirectly through a broker, bank or other intermediary on behalf of a beneficial owner (referred to as held in “street name”) and the broker submits a proxy but does not vote for a matter because the broker has not received voting instructions from the beneficial owner and the broker does not have discretionary voting authority on the matter. Under the rules of the New York Stock Exchange that govern how brokers may vote shares for which they have not received voting instructions from the beneficial owner, brokers are permitted to exercise discretionary voting authority only on “routine” matters when voting instructions have not been timely received from a beneficial owner. The Auditor Ratification Proposal and the Adjournment Proposal are each considered a “routine matter.” Therefore, if you do not provide voting instructions to your broker regarding such proposals, your broker will be permitted to exercise discretionary voting authority to vote your shares on such proposals. In the absence of specific instructions from you, your broker does not have discretionary authority to vote your shares with respect to the Director Election Proposal, the Issuance Proposal, the Incentive Plan Amendment Proposal, the Say on Pay Proposal and the Say on Frequency Proposal.

How do I vote my shares?

If you are a record holder, you may vote your voting securities at the Annual Meeting in person virtually or by proxy. To vote in person virtually, you must be logged in and registered to virtually attend the Annual Meeting and cast your vote before the announcement of the close of voting during the Annual Meeting. To vote by proxy, you must do one of the following:

The telephone and Internet voting procedures are designed to authenticate stockholders’ identities, to allow you to vote your shares and to confirm that your instructions have been properly recorded. Please refer to your proxy card or the information forwarded by your bank, broker or other nominee to see which options are available to you. The proxy card is fairly simple to complete, with specific instructions right on the card. By completing and submitting it, you will direct the designated persons (known as “proxies”) to vote your stock at the Annual Meeting in accordance with your instructions. The Board has appointed Joshua Silverman, Chief Executive Officer, to serve as the proxy for the Annual Meeting.

Your proxy card will be valid only if you sign, date and return it before the Annual Meeting. If you complete all of the proxy card except one or more of the voting instructions, then the designated proxies will vote your shares as to which you provide no voting instructions in the manner described under “What if I do not specify how I want my shares voted?” below. We do not anticipate that any other matters will come before the Annual Meeting, but if any other matters properly come before the meeting, then the designated proxies will vote your shares in accordance with applicable law and their judgment.

If you hold your shares in “street name,” your bank, broker or other nominee should provide to you a request for voting instructions along with the Company’s proxy solicitation materials. By completing the voting instruction card, you may direct your nominee how to vote your shares. If you complete the voting instruction card except for one or more of the voting instructions, then your broker may be unable to vote your shares with respect to the proposal as to which you provide no voting instructions. See “What is a broker non-vote?” Alternatively, if you want to vote your shares during the Annual Meeting, you must contact your nominee directly in order to obtain a proxy issued to you by your nominee holder. Note that a broker letter that identifies you as a stockholder is not the same as a nominee issued proxy.

Even if you currently plan to attend the Annual Meeting, we recommend that you also submit your proxy as described above so that your votes will be counted if you later decide not to attend the Annual Meeting or are unable to attend.

What if I have technical difficulties or trouble accessing the Annual Meeting?

We will have technicians ready to assist you with any technical difficulties you may have in accessing the Annual Meeting. If you encounter any difficulties accessing the virtual meeting during the check-in or meeting time, please call the technical support number that will be posted on the virtual meeting log in page.

Who counts the votes?

All votes will be tabulated by Broadridge Investor Communication Solutions, Inc. (“Broadridge”), the inspector of election appointed for the Annual Meeting. Each proposal will be tabulated separately.

What are my choices when voting?

When you cast your vote on:

What are the Board’s recommendations on how I should vote my shares?

The Board recommends that you vote your shares as follows:

“FOR” the Director Election Proposal, “FOR” the Issuance Proposal, “FOR” the Auditor Ratification Proposal, “FOR” the Incentive Plan Amendment Proposal, “FOR” the Say on Pay Proposal, “EVERY THREE YEARS” for the Say on Frequency Proposal and “FOR” the Adjournment Proposal.

What if I do not specify how I want my shares voted?

If you are a record holder who returns a completed proxy that does not specify how you want to vote your shares on one or more proposals, the proxies will vote your shares for each proposal as to which you provide no voting instructions, and such shares will be voted in the following manner:

“FOR” the Director Election Proposal, “FOR” the Issuance Proposal, “FOR” the Auditor Ratification Proposal, “FOR” the Incentive Plan Amendment Proposal, “FOR” the Say on Pay Proposal, “EVERY THREE YEARS” for the Say on Frequency Proposal and “FOR” the Adjournment Proposal.

If you are a “street name” holder and do not provide voting instructions on one or more proposals, your bank, broker or other nominee will be unable to vote those shares with respect to the Director Election Proposal, the Issuance Proposal, the Incentive Plan Amendment Proposal, the Say on Pay Proposal and the Say on Frequency Proposal but will be able to vote those shares with respect to the Auditor Ratification Proposal and the Adjournment Proposal. See “What is a broker non-vote?”

Can I change my vote?

Yes. If you are a record holder, you may revoke your proxy at any time by any of the following means:

If you are a street name holder, your bank, broker or other nominee should provide instructions explaining how you may change or revoke your voting instructions.

What vote is required to approve each proposal?

Assuming the presence of a quorum, with respect to the Director Election Proposal, directors are elected by a plurality of the voting power of the shares present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on the Director Election Proposal.

Assuming the presence of a quorum, approval of the Issuance Proposal will require the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast by the stockholders present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on the Issuance Proposal, voting affirmatively or negatively (excluding abstentions and broker non-votes).

Assuming the presence of a quorum, approval of the Auditor Ratification Proposal will require the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast by the stockholders present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on such proposals, voting affirmatively or negatively (excluding abstentions and broker non-votes). We are not required to obtain the approval of our stockholders to select our independent registered public accounting firm. However, if our stockholders do not ratify the appointment of Stephano Slack LLC as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026, our Audit Committee of our Board will reconsider its appointment.

Assuming the presence of a quorum, approval of the Incentive Plan Amendment Proposal will require the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast by the stockholders present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on the Incentive Plan Amendment Proposal, voting affirmatively or negatively (excluding abstentions and broker non-votes).

Assuming the presence of a quorum, approval of the Say on Pay Proposal will require the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast by the stockholders present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on the Say on Pay Proposal, voting affirmatively or negatively (excluding abstentions and broker non-votes).

For the Say on Frequency Proposal, the number of years (one, two or three) that receives the highest number of votes represented in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote will be deemed to be preferred by our stockholders.

Assuming the presence of a quorum, approval of the Adjournment Proposal will require the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast by the stockholders present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on the Adjournment Proposal, voting affirmatively or negatively (excluding abstentions and broker non-votes).

How are abstentions and broker non-votes treated?

Abstentions or votes withheld are included in the determination of the number of shares present at the Annual Meeting for determining a quorum at the meeting. Votes withheld will have no effect with respect to the Director Election Proposal and votes abstained will have no effect with respect to the Issuance Proposal, Auditor Ratification Proposal, Incentive Plan Amendment Proposal, Say on Pay Proposal, Say on Frequency Proposal or Adjournment Proposal.

Broker non-votes are included in the determination of the number of shares present at the Annual Meeting for determining a quorum at the meeting.

Failure to instruct your broker how to vote with respect to the Election of Directors, the Issuance Proposal, the Incentive Plan Amendment Proposal, the Say on Pay Proposal and the Say on Frequency Proposal will result in a broker non-vote, which will have no effect on the outcome of the vote with respect to such proposal. However, if you do not give your broker specific instructions on how to vote your shares with respect to the Auditor Ratification Proposal or the Adjournment Proposal, your broker may vote your shares at its discretion with respect to such proposals.

Do I have any dissenters’ or appraisal rights with respect to any of the matters to be voted on at the Annual Meeting?

No. None of our stockholders have any dissenters’ or appraisal rights with respect to the matters to be voted on at the Annual Meeting.

What are the solicitation expenses and who pays the cost of this proxy solicitation?

Our Board is asking for your proxy and we will pay all of the costs associated with asking for stockholder proxies. We will reimburse brokerage houses and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries for their reasonable out-of-pocket expenses for forwarding solicitation material to the beneficial owners of Common Stock and collecting voting instructions. We may use officers and employees of the Company to ask for proxies, as described below. In addition, we have retained Campaign Management, LLC (“Campaign Management”) to assist in the solicitation of proxies for a fee of $12,500 plus customary expenses.

Is this Proxy Statement the only way that proxies are being solicited?

No. In addition to the solicitation of proxies by use of the mail, officers and employees of the Company, as well as Campaign Management, the proxy solicitation firm hired by the Company, may solicit the return of proxies, either by mail, telephone, fax, e-mail or through personal contact. These officers and employees will not receive additional compensation for their efforts but will be reimbursed for out-of-pocket expenses. The fees of Campaign Management as well as the reimbursement of expenses of Campaign Management will be borne by us. Brokerage houses and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries, in connection with shares of the Common Stock registered in their names, will be requested to forward solicitation material to the beneficial owners of shares of Common Stock.

Are there any other matters to be acted upon at the Annual Meeting?

Management does not intend to present any business at the Annual Meeting for a vote other than the matters set forth in the Notice of Annual Meeting of Stockholders and has no information that others will do so. If other matters requiring a vote of the stockholders properly come before the Annual Meeting, it is the intention of the persons named in the accompanying proxy card to vote the shares represented by the proxies held by them in accordance with applicable law and their judgment on such matters.

Where can I find voting results?

The Company expects to publish the voting results in a current report on Form 8-K, which it expects to file with the SEC within four business days following the Annual Meeting (the “Form 8-K”). If final results are unavailable when we file the Form 8-K, then we will file an amendment to the Form 8-K to disclose the final voting results within four business days after the final voting results are known.

Who can help answer my questions?

We urge you to carefully read this entire Proxy Statement, including the documents we refer to in this Proxy Statement. If you have any questions, need additional material, or need assistance in voting your shares, please feel free to contact the firm assisting us in the solicitation of proxies, Campaign Management.

The Board regards all of the individuals above as competent professionals with many years of experience in the business community. The Board believes that the overall experience and knowledge of the members of Board will contribute to the overall success of our business.

There is no arrangement or understanding between any of the directors identified above and any other person pursuant to which he was selected as a director or director nominee. None of the directors or director nominees identified above is, or has been, a participant in any transaction involving the Company, and is not a participant in any proposed transaction with the Company, in each case, required to be disclosed pursuant to Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K, other than as described in “Certain Relationships and Related Person Transactions” herein.

Unless otherwise directed in the proxy, it is the intention of the persons named in the proxy to vote the shares represented by such proxy “FOR” the election of each of the director nominees. All of the five director nominees are presently directors of the Company.

Vote Required

Directors are elected by a plurality of the voting power of the shares present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the election of directors. “WITHHOLD” votes will have no effect on the results for the Director Election Proposal. Because the Director Election Proposal is not considered a routine matter, your bank, broker, trustee or other nominee, as the case may be, will not be able to vote your shares without your instruction with respect to the Director Election Proposal. As a result, the failure to instruct your bank, broker, trustee or other nominee as to how to vote on the Director Election Proposal will result in a broker non-vote, which will have no effect on the results of this vote. Proxies cannot be voted for a greater number of persons than the number of nominees named or for persons other than the named nominees.

THE BOARD RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE “FOR” THE DIRECTOR NOMINEES, AND

PROXIES SOLICITED BY THE BOARD WILL BE VOTED IN FAVOR OF EACH DIRECTOR

NOMINEE UNLESS A STOCKHOLDER INDICATES OTHERWISE ON THE PROXY.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

Fabric.AI, with the oversight of the Board and its committees, operates within a comprehensive plan of corporate governance for the purpose of defining independence, assigning responsibilities, setting high standards of professional and personal conduct and assuring compliance with such responsibilities and standards. We regularly monitor developments in the area of corporate governance.

Corporate Code of Conduct and Ethics and Whistleblower Policy

We have adopted a Corporate Code of Conduct and Ethics and Whistleblower Policy (the “Code of Conduct”) that applies to all of our associates, as well as each of our directors and certain persons performing services for us. The Code of Conduct addresses, among other things, competition and fair dealing, conflicts of interest, protection and proper use of Company assets, government relations, compliance with laws, rules and regulations and the process for reporting violations of the Code of Conduct, employee misconduct, improper conflicts of interest or other violations. Our Code of Conduct is available on our website at https://fabricai.com/ in the “Governance” section found under the “Investors” tab. We intend to disclose any amendments to, or waivers from, our Code of Conduct at the same web address provided above.

Board Composition

Our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended (the “Charter”), and our Amended and Restated Bylaws, as amended (“Bylaws”), provide that our Board will consist of such number of directors as determined from time to time by resolution adopted by our Board. Any vacancies or newly created directorships resulting from an increase in the authorized number of directors may be filled by a majority of the directors then in office. As of [  ], 2026, the Board consists of Joshua Silverman, Wayne R. Walker, Sebastian Giordano, Zvi Joseph, and Greg Schiffman.

Director Independence

We are currently listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market and therefore rely on the definition of independence set forth in the Nasdaq Listing Rules (“Nasdaq Rules”). Under the Nasdaq Rules, a director will only qualify as an “independent director” if, in the opinion of our Board, that person does not have a relationship that would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director. Based upon information requested from and provided by each director and director nominee concerning his background, employment, and affiliations, including family relationships, we have determined that our current directors Messrs. Giordano, Schiffman, Joseph and Walker have no material relationship with us that would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment and are “independent directors” as that term is defined in the Nasdaq Listing Rules.

Board Committees, Meetings and Attendance

During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, the Board held fourteen meetings. We expect our directors to attend Board meetings, meetings of any committees and subcommittees on which they serve, and each annual meeting of stockholders, either in person or by teleconference. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, each director attended, either in person or telephonically, at least 75% of the aggregate Board meetings and meetings of committees on which he served during his tenure as a director or committee member, and none of our directors attended the Company’s 2025 annual meeting of stockholders. The Board has adopted a policy under which each member of the Board is encouraged to attend each annual meeting of our stockholders.

The Board delegates various responsibilities and authority to different Board committees. Committees regularly report on their activities and actions to the full Board. Currently, the Board has established an Audit Committee, a Compensation and Human Resources Committee and a Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. Committee assignments are re-evaluated annually. Each of these committees operates under a charter that has been approved by our Board. The current charter of each of these committees is available on our website at https://fabricai.com/ in the “Governance” section under “Investors.”

As of [  ], 2026, the following table sets forth the membership of each of the Board committees listed above.

Audit Committee

Our Audit Committee is responsible for, among other matters:

Our Audit Committee is composed of Greg Schiffman (chairman), Zvi Joseph and Sebastian Giordano. Our Board has determined that Messrs. Schiffman, Joseph and Giordano are independent in accordance with Nasdaq Rules and Rule 10A-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Our Board has also reviewed the education, experience and other qualifications of each member of the Audit Committee. Based upon that review, our Board has determined that Greg Schiffman qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert,” as defined by the rules of the SEC and has the requisite financial sophistication under the applicable rules and regulations of Nasdaq. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, the Audit Committee held four meetings.

Compensation and Human Resources Committee

Our Compensation and Human Resources Committee is responsible for, among other matters:

Our Compensation and Human Resources Committee is composed of Greg Schiffman and Zvi Joseph (chairman). Our Board has determined that Messrs. Schiffman and Joseph are independent in accordance with NASDAQ Rules. The Compensation and Human Resources Committee has the authority to delegate to subcommittees of the Compensation and Human Resources Committee any of the responsibilities of the full committee. The Compensation and Human Resources Committee may invite such members of management to its meetings as it deems appropriate. However, no officer may be present during Compensation and Human Resources Committee deliberations or voting at which his or her compensation is discussed or determined. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, the Compensation and Human Resources Committee held two meetings. In the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, the Company did not retain the services of any compensation consultants.

Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee

Our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is responsible for, among other matters:

Our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is composed of Greg Schiffman (chairman) and Zvi Joseph. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee did not hold any meetings.

Director Nominations

Our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee considers all qualified candidates identified by members of the Board, by senior management and by stockholders. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee follows the same process and uses the same criteria for evaluating candidates proposed by stockholders, members of the Board and members of senior management. We did not pay fees to any third party to assist in the process of identifying or evaluating director candidates during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025.

Our Bylaws contain provisions that address the process by which a stockholder may nominate an individual to stand for election to the Board at our Annual Meeting. To recommend a nominee for election to the Board, a stockholder must submit his or her recommendation to our Secretary at our corporate offices at 1185 Avenue of the Americas, New York, New York 10036. Such nomination must satisfy the notice, information and consent requirements set forth in our Bylaws and must be received by us prior to the date set forth under “Submission of Future Stockholder Proposals” below. A stockholder’s recommendation must be accompanied by the information with respect to stockholder nominees as specified in our Bylaws, including among other things, the name, age, address and occupation of the recommended person, the proposing stockholder’s name and address, the ownership interests of the proposing stockholder and any beneficial owner on whose behalf the nomination is being made (including the number of shares beneficially owned, any hedging, derivative, short or other economic interests and any rights to vote any shares) and any material monetary or other relationships between the recommended person and the proposing stockholder and/or the beneficial owners, if any, on whose behalf the nomination is being made.

In evaluating director nominees, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee considers the following factors:

Our Board believes that each director should have a basic understanding of our principal operational and financial objectives and plans and strategies, our results of operations and financial condition and our relative standing in relation to our competitors.

In identifying director nominees, the Board will first evaluate the current members of the Board willing to continue in service. Current members of the Board with skills and experience that are relevant to our business and who are willing to continue in service will be considered for re-nomination.

If any member of the Board does not wish to continue in service or if the Board decides not to re-nominate a member for re-election, the Board will identify another nominee with the desired skills and experience described above. The Board takes into consideration the overall composition and diversity of the Board and areas of expertise that director nominees may be able to offer, including business experience, knowledge, abilities and customer relationships. Generally, the Board will strive to assemble a Board that brings to us a variety of perspectives and skills derived from business and professional experience as it may deem are in our and our stockholders’ best interests. In doing so, the Board will also consider candidates with appropriate non-business backgrounds.

Board Leadership Structure and Role in Risk Oversight

The positions of Chairman of the Board and principal executive officer (“PEO”) are filled by the same individual. Mr. Silverman currently serves as our Chief Executive Officer, Chairman of the Board and our PEO. The Board acknowledges that there are different leadership structures that could allow it to effectively oversee the management of the risks relating to the Company’s operations and believes its current leadership structure enables it to effectively provide oversight with respect to such risks. However, our Board believes the current structure provides an efficient and effective leadership model for the Company and that combining the Chairman of the Board and PEO roles fosters clear accountability, effective decision-making and alignment on corporate strategy. Moreover, the Board believes that its governance practices provide adequate safeguards against any potential risks that might be associated with having a combined Chairman and PEO.

Our Audit Committee is primarily responsible for overseeing the Company’s risk management processes on behalf of the full Board. The Audit Committee receives reports from management concerning the Company’s assessment of risks. In addition, the Audit Committee reports regularly to the full Board, which also considers the Company’s risk profile. The Audit Committee and the full Board focus on the most significant risks facing the Company and the Company’s general risk management strategy. In addition, as part of its oversight of our Company’s executive compensation program, the Compensation and Human Resources Committee considers the impact of such program, and the incentives created by the compensation awards that it administers, on our Company’s risk profile. In addition, the Compensation and Human Resources Committee reviews all of our compensation policies and procedures, including the incentives that they create and factors that may reduce the likelihood of excessive risk taking, to determine whether they present a significant risk to our Company. The Compensation and Human Resources Committee has determined that, for all employees, our compensation programs do not encourage excessive risk and instead encourage behaviors that support sustainable value creation.

Communications with Directors

The Board welcomes communication from our stockholders. Stockholders and other interested parties who wish to communicate with a member or members of our Board or a committee thereof may do so by addressing correspondence to the Board member, members or committee, c/o Secretary, Fabric.AI, Inc., 1185 Avenue of the Americas, New York, New York 10036. Our Secretary will review and forward correspondence to the appropriate person or persons.

All communications received as set forth in the preceding paragraph will be opened by our Secretary for the sole purpose of determining whether the contents represent a message to our directors. Any contents that are not in the nature of advertising, promotions of a product or service or patently offensive material will be forwarded promptly to the addressee(s). In the case of communications to the Board or any group or committee of directors, our Secretary will make sufficient copies of the contents to send to each director who is a member of the group or committee to whom the communication is addressed. If the amount of correspondence received through the foregoing process becomes excessive, our Board may consider approving a process for review, organization and screening of the correspondence by our Secretary or another appropriate person.

Family Relationships

There are no family relationships among any of our directors and executive officers.

Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings

None of our directors, director nominees or executive officers has been involved in any of the following events during the past ten years:

There have been no material legal proceedings that would require disclosure under the federal securities laws that are material to an evaluation of the ability or integrity of our directors, director nominees or executive officers, or in which any director, director nominee, officer, nominee or principal stockholder, or any affiliate thereof, is a party adverse to us or has a material interest adverse to us.

Insider Trading Policy; Prohibition on Hedges and Pledges

We have an insider trading policy that prohibits our directors, executive officers, employees, independent contractors, consultants and their respective family members from the purchasing or selling our securities while being aware of material, non-public information about the Company as well as disclosing such information to others who may trade in securities of the Company. Our insider trading policy also prohibits our directors, executive officers, employees and their respective family members from engaging in hedging activities or other short-term or speculative transactions in the Company’s securities such as short sales, options trading, holding the Company’s securities in a margin account or pledging the Company’s securities as collateral for a loan, without the advance approval of our Chief Financial Officer. Our insider trading policy is filed as an exhibit to our Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Delinquent Section 16(a) Reports

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), requires our officers and directors and persons who beneficially own more than 10% of our ordinary shares to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership of such ordinary shares with the SEC. These persons are required by SEC regulations to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file. As a matter of practice, our legal team assists our officers and directors in preparing initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership and files those reports on their behalf. Based solely on our review of the copies of such forms we have received, we believe that all required Section 16(a) reports were timely filed during our fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, except that on May 7, 2025, a Form 4 for Joseph Ramelli was filed late to report the grant of stock options on April 30, 2025.

DIRECTOR COMPENSATION

The following table sets forth summary information concerning the total compensation earned by the non-employee directors during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, for services to the Company.

On January 24, 2023, the Board approved annual director compensation for the director compensation cycle beginning on February 1, 2023. The Board approved the following annual cash retainer fees for the members of the Board: (A) to each non-employee director, an annual cash retainer fee of $47,250; (B) to the Chairman of the Board, an additional annual cash retainer fee of $84,000; and (C) to the chair of each Board committee, additional cash compensation as follows: (x) $12,500 to the Audit Committee Chair, (y) $11,500 to the Compensation and Human Resources Committee Chair, and (z) $8,000 to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee Chair.

For a description of the Plan, see “Incentive Plan Amendment Proposal.”

AYRO Operating Equity Plan

Pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated December 19, 2019 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among the Company, previously known as DropCar, Inc. (“DropCar”), ABC Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”), and AYRO Operating, Merger Sub was merged with and into AYRO Operating, with each issued and outstanding share of AYRO Operating’s common stock, including shares underlying AYRO Operating’s outstanding equity awards and warrants, being converted into the right to receive 1.3634 shares (the “Exchange Ratio”) of the Company’s Common Stock, and with AYRO Operating continuing after the merger as the surviving entity and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, effective as of the effective time of the Merger, we assumed the AYRO Operating Equity Plan, assuming all of AYRO Operating’s rights and obligations with respect to the options issued thereunder. Immediately thereafter, we terminated the AYRO Operating Equity Plan.

Effective as of 6:05 pm Eastern Time on May 26, 2020, we filed an amendment to our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, to effect a reverse stock split of the issued and outstanding shares of our common stock, at a ratio of one share for ten shares. Immediately following the reverse stock split, we issued a stock dividend of one share of the Company’s common stock for each outstanding share of common stock to all holders of record immediately following the effective time of the reverse stock split. The net result of the reverse stock split and the stock dividend was a 1-for-5 reverse stock split (the “2020 Reverse Split”).

The AYRO Operating Equity Plan, effective as of January 1, 2017, allowed for the granting of a variety of equity-based awards to provide AYRO Operating with flexibility in attracting and retaining key employees, consultants, and nonemployee directors and to provide such persons with additional incentive opportunities designed to enhance AYRO Operating’s profitable growth. Consequently, the AYRO Operating Equity Plan primarily provided for the granting of incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, restricted stock awards, restricted stock units, stock appreciation rights, other stock-based awards, or a combination of the foregoing.

Authorized Shares. At inception, a total of 125,000 shares of AYRO Operating common stock (without giving effect to the Exchange Ratio or the 2020 Reverse Split that occurred immediately after the effective time of the Merger or 2023 Reverse Stock Split (as defined herein)), were authorized for issuance under the AYRO Operating Equity Plan. The AYRO Operating Equity Plan was amended from time to time to increase the maximum number of shares authorized for issuance under the AYRO Operating Equity Plan. A total of 6,410,000 shares of common stock were authorized under the AYRO Operating Equity Plan, without giving effect to the Exchange Ratio or the 2020 Reverse Split that occurred immediately after the effective time of the Merger or the 2023 Reverse Stock Split (as defined herein).

Plan Administration. As permitted by the terms of the AYRO Operating Equity Plan, the AYRO Operating board of directors delegated administration of the AYRO Operating Equity Plan to the compensation committee of AYRO Operating’s board of directors (the “AYRO Operating Committee”). As used herein with respect to the AYRO Operating Equity Plan, the term “AYRO Operating Committee” refers to any committee AYRO Operating’s board of directors may have appointed to administer the AYRO Operating Equity Plan as well as to the board of directors itself. Subject to the provisions of the AYRO Operating Equity Plan, the AYRO Operating Committee had the power to construe and interpret the AYRO Operating Equity Plan and awards granted under it and to determine the persons to whom and the dates on which awards would have been granted, the number of shares of common stock to be subject to each award, the time or times during the term of each award within which all or a portion of such award may have been exercised, the exercise price, the type of consideration to have been paid, and the other terms and provisions of each award, which need not have been identical. All decisions, determinations and interpretations by the AYRO Operating Committee regarding the AYRO Operating Equity Plan and any awards granted under it were final, binding and conclusive on all participants or other persons claiming rights under the AYRO Operating Equity Plan or any award.

Options. Options granted under the AYRO Operating Equity Plan may (i) either have been “incentive stock options” within the meaning of Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), or “nonqualified stock options,” and (ii) became exercisable in cumulative increments (“vest”) as determined by the AYRO Operating Committee. Such increments may have been based on continued service to AYRO Operating over a certain period of time, the occurrence of certain performance milestones, or other criteria as determined by the Committee. Options granted under the AYRO Operating Equity Plan may have been subject to different vesting terms. The AYRO Operating Committee generally had the power to accelerate the time during which an option may have vested or have been exercised. Options may not have had an exercise price per share of less than 100% (110% in the case of a participant who owned more than 10% of the combined voting power of AYRO Operating or an affiliate (a “10% Stockholder”)) of the fair market value of a share of AYRO Operating common stock on the date of grant or a term longer than ten years (five years in the case of a 10% Stockholder). To the extent provided by the terms of an option, a participant may have satisfied any federal, state or local tax withholding obligation relating to the exercise of such option by a cash payment upon exercise, by authorizing AYRO Operating to withhold a portion of the stock otherwise issuable to the participant upon exercise, or by such other method as may be set forth in the option agreement or authorized by the AYRO Operating Committee. The treatment of options under the AYRO Operating Equity Plan upon a participant’s termination of employment with or service to AYRO Operating were set forth in the applicable award agreement, which typically provided that the options will terminate three months after a termination of employment or service. Incentive stock options are not transferable except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, provided that a participant may designate a beneficiary who may exercise an option following the participant’s death. Non-qualified stock options are transferable to certain permitted transferees (as provided in the AYRO Operating Equity Plan) to the extent included in the option award agreement.

Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Unit Awards. Subject to certain limitations, the AYRO Operating Committee was authorized to grant awards of restricted stock and restricted stock units, which were rights to receive shares of AYRO Operating common stock or cash, as determined by the AYRO Operating Committee and as set forth in the applicable award agreement, upon the settlement of the restricted stock units at the end of a specified time period. The AYRO Operating Committee may have imposed any restrictions or conditions upon the vesting of restricted stock or restricted stock unit awards, or that delay the settlement of a restricted stock unit award after it vests, that the AYRO Operating Committee deemed appropriate and in accordance with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code and the regulations and other authoritative guidance issued thereunder. Dividend equivalents may have been credited in respect of shares covered by a restricted stock or a restricted stock unit award, as determined by the AYRO Operating Committee. At the discretion of the AYRO Operating Committee, such dividend equivalents may have been converted into additional shares covered by restricted stock or restricted stock units, as applicable. If a restricted stock or restricted stock unit award recipient’s employment or service relationship with AYRO Operating terminated, any unvested portion of the restricted stock or restricted stock unit award would be forfeited, unless the participant’s award agreement provided otherwise. Restricted stock and restricted stock unit awards are generally not transferable except (i) by will or by the laws of descent and distribution or (ii) to certain permitted transferee, to the extent provided in the award agreement.

Other Awards. Other awards permitted under the AYRO Operating Equity Plan included stock appreciation rights, bonus stock, dividend equivalents, and other stock-based awards that were denominated or payable in, valued in whole or in part by reference to or otherwise based on or related to AYRO Operating common stock.

Certain Adjustments; Change in Control. In connection with any reorganization, recapitalization, reincorporation, reclassification, stock dividend, dividend in property other than cash, stock split, liquidating dividend, combination of shares, exchange of shares, or other change in AYRO Operating’s capital structure, the AYRO Operating Committee would have appropriately adjusted the type(s), class(es) and number of shares of common stock subject to the AYRO Operating Equity Plan (and the other share limits contained therein), and any outstanding awards would also be appropriately adjusted as to the type(s), class(es), number of shares and exercise price per share of common stock subject to such awards.

In the event of a “Change in Control” (as defined in the AYRO Operating Equity Plan), the AYRO Operating Committee would have approved, without the consent or approval of any participant, one or more of the following alternatives with respect to outstanding awards under the AYRO Operating Equity Plan: (i) accelerate the time at which outstanding awards may be exercised, whether in full or in part, or for a limited period of time on or before a specified date after which date all unexercised awards and all rights of holders thereunder shall terminate; (ii) require the surrender of some or all of a participant’s outstanding awards, upon which such awards shall be cancelled and the participant shall receive an amount in cash equal to the positive difference, if any, between the underlying stock’s then current fair market value over the award’s exercise or purchase price, as applicable; or (iii) make such adjustments to outstanding awards as the AYRO Operating Committee deemed appropriate to reflect such Change in Control. Any determination of the AYRO Operating Committee with regard to any outstanding awards under the AYRO Operating Equity Plan in connection with a Change in Control would be final, binding and conclusive.

Amendment, Termination. AYRO Operating’s board of directors may have amended, altered, suspended, discontinued, or terminated the AYRO Operating Equity Plan, provided that no such amendment would have adversely affected the rights of any participant without the participant’s consent.

PAY VERSUS PERFORMANCE

Pay Versus Performance Disclosure

The following section has been prepared in accordance with Pay Versus Performance rules adopted by the SEC pursuant to the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010. Under these rules, the SEC has developed a definition of pay, referred to as Compensation Actually Paid (“CAP”). We are required to calculate CAP for our Named Executive Officers and then compare it with certain Company performance measures. Stockholders should refer to our compensation philosophy discussion in this Proxy Statement for a complete description of how executive compensation relates to Company performance measures. The Company did not consider this SEC-required Pay Versus Performance analysis and disclosure below in making its pay decisions for any of the years shown.

Pay Versus Performance Table

The following table shows the past three fiscal years’ total compensation for our Named Executive Officers as set forth in the Summary Compensation Table (“SCT”), the CAP to our Named Executive Officers, our total stockholder return (“TSR”), and our net loss. We are a “smaller reporting company,” as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act, and have elected to provide in this Proxy Statement certain scaled disclosures permitted under the Exchange Act for smaller reporting companies.

SEC rules require certain adjustments be made to the SCT totals to determine CAP as reported in the Pay Versus Performance table. CAP does not necessarily represent cash and/or equity value transferred to the applicable Named Executive Officer without restriction, but rather is a valuation calculated under applicable SEC rules. The methodology for calculating CAP as required by Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K takes into account, among others, changes in share price and its impact on the fair value of equity awards.

Non-PEO NEOs

Analysis of the Information Presented in the Pay Versus Performance Table

We generally seek to incentivize long-term performance, and therefore do not specifically align our performance measures with “compensation actually paid” (as computed in accordance with Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K) for a particular year. In accordance with Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K, we are providing the following descriptions of the relationships between information presented in the Pay Versus Performance table.

PROPOSAL NO. 2 - ISSUANCE PROPOSAL

Background and Description of the Issuance Proposal

The Private Placement

On April 27, 2026, we entered into the Purchase Agreement with certain accredited investors (the “Investors”), pursuant to which we agreed to sell to the Investors in the Private Placement (i) an aggregate of 21,500 shares of the Company’s newly designated Series K Preferred Stock, with a stated value of $1,000 per share, initially convertible into up to 8,565,737 shares of the Company’s Common Stock at an initial conversion price of $2.51 and (ii) accompanying warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 8,565,737 shares of Common Stock at an initial exercise price of $2.51 (the “Investor Warrants”). The shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series K Preferred Stock are referred to as the “Series K Conversion Shares.” The shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Investor Warrants are referred to as the “Investor Warrant Shares.”

In connection with the Private Placement, pursuant to an engagement letter (the “GPN Agreement”) with GP Nurmenkari Inc. (“GPN”), the Company engaged GPN to act as a non-exclusive placement agent in connection with the Private Placement. Pursuant to the GPN Agreement, the Company agreed to (i) pay GPN a cash fee equal to 8% of the gross proceeds of the Private Placement (including any cash proceeds realized by the Company from the exercise of outstanding warrants of the Company), (ii) reimbursement and payment of certain expenses up to $10,000, and (iii) issue to GPN on the closing date of the Private Placement (the “Closing Date”), warrants to initially purchase up to 685,258 shares of Common Stock (which is equal to 8% of the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock initially underlying the Series K Preferred Stock issued in the Private Placement and upon exercise of any outstanding warrants of the Company), with terms identical to the Investor Warrants (the “Placement Agent Warrants” and, the Placement Agent Warrants together with the Investor Warrants, the “Private Placement Warrants”). The shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Placement Agent Warrants are referred to as the “Placement Agent Warrant Shares” and the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Private Placement Warrants are referred to as the “Private Placement Warrant Shares.” The Series K Conversion Shares and the Private Placement Warrant Shares are collectively referred to as the “Series K Underlying Shares.”

Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635 requires that a listed company seek stockholder approval in certain circumstances, including prior to the issuance, in a transaction other than a public offering, of 20% or more of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock or voting power outstanding before the issuance at a price that is less than the lower of (i) the Nasdaq Official Closing Price (as reflected on Nasdaq.com) immediately preceding the signing of the binding agreement in connection with such transaction or (ii) the average Nasdaq Official Closing Price of the Common Stock (as reflected on Nasdaq.com) for the five trading days immediately preceding the signing of such binding agreement (the “Minimum Price”). In connection with the Private Placement, we agreed to seek approval by our stockholders for the issuance of the Series K Underlying Shares.

Reasons for the Private Placement

As of December 31, 2025, our cash and cash equivalents totaled approximately $4,981,798. On April 27, 2026, at a duly held meeting of our Board, our Board determined that it was necessary to raise additional funds for the purpose of funding the transactions contemplated by that certain Joint Development and License Agreement, dated as of April 27, 2026, by and among the Company and Kopin (the “JDA”) and for general corporate purposes. We believe that the Private Placement, which yielded aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $21,500,000, was necessary in light of the anticipated transaction by the JDA and our cash, business development and funding requirements. In addition, at the time of the Private Placement, our Board considered numerous alternatives to the transactions, none of which proved to be feasible or, in the opinion of our Board, would have resulted in aggregate terms equivalent to, or more favorable than, the terms obtained in the Private Placement.

The Securities Purchase Agreement

The Purchase Agreement obligates us to indemnify the applicable Investors and various related parties for certain losses including those resulting from (i) any misrepresentation or breach of any representation or warranty made by us or any subsidiary in any of the applicable transaction documents, (ii) any breach of any covenant, agreement or obligation of us or any subsidiary contained in any of the applicable transaction documents, and (iii) certain claims by third parties.

The Purchase Agreement contains certain representations and warranties, covenants and indemnification provisions customary for similar transactions, as well as the following additional covenants: (A) unless Stockholder Approval (as defined below) is obtained, the Company may not effect any Dilutive Issuance (as defined in the Series K Certificate of Designations), (B) until ninety (90) days following the earlier of (x) the date on which the resale by the Investors of all the Registrable Securities (as defined in the Series K Registration Rights Agreement) required to be filed on the initial Registration Statement pursuant to the Series K Registration Rights Agreement is declared effective by the SEC (and each prospectus contained therein is available for use on such date) or (y) the date on which the selling stockholders may sell their Series K Conversion Shares or shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Investor Warrants pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), the Company may not issue, offer, sell, grant any option or right to purchase, or otherwise dispose of (or announce any issuance, offer, sale, grant of any option or right to purchase or other disposition of) any equity security or any equity-linked or related security, in each case of clauses (A) and (B) subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Series K Certificate of Designations. In addition, (A) until all of the Investor Warrants are no longer outstanding, the Company is prohibited from effecting or entering into an agreement to effect any subsequent placement involving a variable rate transaction, and (B) until the date on which no shares of Series K Preferred Stock remain outstanding, the Company must provide the holders of the Series K Preferred Stock the opportunity to participate in any subsequent securities offerings by us. Additionally, we agreed to hold a stockholder meeting, at which we would use our reasonable best efforts to solicit our stockholders’ affirmative vote for approval of our issuance of the Series K Preferred Stock, the Series K Conversion Shares, the Investor Warrants and the Investor Warrant Shares, each in accordance with applicable law and the rules and regulations of the Nasdaq Stock Market, LLC (“Stockholder Approval”) no later than June 26, 2026. The Issuance Proposal is intended to fulfill this covenant, however, we are also seeking approval of the issuance of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Company’s Series J Preferred Stock, the Waiver Warrants (as defined herein), the Placement Agent Warrants and the Consulting Warrants (as defined herein) pursuant to this Issuance Proposal.

The Series K Preferred Stock

The terms of the Series K Preferred Stock are as set forth in the Certificate of Designations of Preferences and Rights of the Series K Certificate of Designations, which was filed with the Secretary of State for the State of Delaware on April 27, 2026, prior to the closing of the Private Placement. The Series K Certificate of Designations was filed as Exhibit 3.2 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K, filed with the SEC on April 28, 2026, and is incorporated herein by reference.

All shares of capital stock of the Company rank junior to the Series K Preferred Stock, with respect to the preferences as to dividends, distributions and payments upon the liquidation, dissolution and winding up of the Company.

The shares of Series K Preferred Stock are convertible into the Series K Conversion Shares at the election of the holder at any time at an initial conversion price of $2.51 per share (the “Series K Conversion Price”). The Series K Conversion Price is subject to customary adjustments for stock dividends, stock splits, reclassifications, stock combinations and the like (subject to certain exceptions) and subject to price-based adjustment in the event of any issuances of Common Stock, or securities convertible, exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock, at a price below the then-applicable Series K Conversion Price (subject to certain exceptions). The Series K Conversion Price may also be voluntarily reduced by the Company to any amount and for any period of time deemed appropriate by the Board at any time with the prior written consent of the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding shares of Series K Preferred Stock, subject to the rules and regulations of Nasdaq and provided that such price will not be less than the lower of (x) $0.502, which was 20% of the “Minimum Price” (as defined in Rule 5635 of the Nasdaq Stock Market) on the date of the Purchase Agreement and (y) 20% of the “Minimum Price” (as defined in Rule 5635 of the Nasdaq Stock Market) on the date on which Stockholder Approval is obtained (the “Stockholder Approval Date”), in each case, subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, stock combinations, recapitalizations or other similar events, or, in any case, such lower amount as permitted, from time to time, by the Nasdaq Capital Market (the “Floor Price”).

The holders of the shares of Series K Preferred Stock are entitled to dividends of 7% per annum (“Dividends”), compounded each calendar quarter, which are payable in arrears (i) on the first trading day of each calendar quarter (each, a “Dividend Date”), with the first Dividend Date being July 1, 2026, in cash out of funds legally available therefor; provided that a holder of the shares of Series K Preferred Stock and the Company may mutually agree to convert any Dividends into shares of Common Stock at a price to be mutually determined by the Company and such holder, which shall not be less than the Floor Price.

Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a Triggering Event, the Series K Preferred Stock accrue dividends at the rate of 15% per annum.

The holders of the Series K Preferred Stock are entitled to vote with holders of the Common Stock on an as-converted basis, with the number of votes to which each holder of Series K Preferred Stock is entitled to be calculated assuming a conversion price of $2.51 per share, which was the Minimum Price applicable immediately before the execution and delivery of the Purchase Agreement, subject to certain beneficial ownership limitations as set forth in the Series K Certificate of Designations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, our ability to settle conversions using shares of Common Stock is subject to certain limitations set forth in the Series K Certificate of Designations, including a limit on the number of shares that may be issued until the time, if any, that we have obtained Stockholder Approval. Further, the Series K Certificate of Designations contains a certain beneficial ownership limitation which applies to each holder of the Series K Preferred Stock, after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series K Preferred Stock.

The Series K Certificate of Designations includes certain Triggering Events (as defined in the Series K Certificate of Designations), including, among other things, the suspension from trading or the failure of our Common Stock to be trading or listed (as applicable) on an eligible market for a period of five (5) consecutive trading days and the Company’s failure to pay any amounts due to the holders of the Series K Preferred Stock when due, subject to certain cure periods. Upon the occurrence of a Triggering Event, each holder of Series K Preferred Stock will be able to require the Company to redeem in cash any or all of the holder’s Series K Preferred Stock at a premium set forth in the Series K Certificate of Designations. Further, upon a Triggering Event, a holder of the Series K Preferred Stock, at such holder’s option, by delivery of a notice of conversion (“Triggering Event Conversion Notice”) to the Company, convert all, or any number of Series K Preferred Stock held by such holder into shares of Common Stock at a price equal to the lowest of (i) the applicable Series K Conversion Price as in effect on the applicable date of conversion, and (ii) the greater of (x) the Floor Price and (y) 80% of the lowest volume weighted average price of the Common Stock of any trading day during the twenty (20) consecutive trading day period ending and including the trading day immediately preceding the delivery or deemed delivery of the applicable Triggering Event Conversion Notice.

The Series K Certificate of Designations contains certain restrictive covenants including but not limited to: until the date on which less than 1,050 shares of the Series I Preferred Stock are outstanding, maintaining a minimum amount of unencumbered, unrestricted cash and cash equivalents on hand; until the date on which no Series K Preferred Stock are outstanding, (i) restrictions on incurring any indebtedness, subject to certain exceptions; (ii) restrictions on directly or indirectly, redeeming, repurchasing or declaring or paying any cash dividend or distribution on any of our capital stock (other than as required by the Certificate of Designations, the Series A Certificate of Designations, the Series H-7 Certificate of Designations, the Series I Certificate of Designations and Series J Certificate of Designations); and (iii) restrictions on directly or indirectly, permitting any of our indebtedness to mature or accelerate prior to the conversion of all the Series K Preferred Stock (subject to certain exceptions as set forth in the Series K Certificate of Designations).

There is no established public trading market for the Series K Preferred Stock and we do not intend to list the Series K Preferred Stock on any national securities exchange or nationally recognized trading system.

The Investor Warrants and Placement Agent Warrants

The Private Placement Warrants are exercisable for shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $2.51 per share, and expire five years from the date of issuance. The exercise price of the Private Placement Warrants is subject to customary adjustments for stock dividends, stock splits, reclassifications, stock combinations and the like and subject to price-based adjustment in the event of any issuances of Common Stock, or securities convertible, exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock, at a price below the then-applicable exercise price (subject to certain exceptions). The exercise price may also be voluntarily reduced by the Company to any amount and for any period of time deemed appropriate by the Board at any time with the prior written consent of the Required Holders (as defined in the Purchase Agreement), subject to the rules and regulations of the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC.

A holder of the Private Placement Warrants may not exercise any portion of such holder’s Private Placement Warrants to the extent that the holder, together with its affiliates, would beneficially own more than 4.99% (or, at the election of the holder, 9.99%) of the Company’s outstanding shares of Common Stock immediately after exercise, except that upon at least 61 days’ prior notice from the holder to the Company, the holder may increase the beneficial ownership limitation to up to 9.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the exercise.

The Private Placement Warrants may be exercised for cash; provided that, if there is no effective registration statement available for resale of the Private Placement Warrant Shares, the applicable Private Placement Warrants may be exercised on a cashless basis.

There is no established public trading market for the Private Placement Warrants, and we do not intend to list the Private Placement Warrants on any national securities exchange or nationally recognized trading system.

The Series K Registration Rights Agreement

The Series K Preferred Stock, the Private Placement Warrants, the Series K Conversion Shares and Private Placement Warrant Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act. In connection with the Purchase Agreement, on April 27, 2026, the Company and the Investors entered into a Registration Rights Agreement (the “Series K Registration Rights Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company is required to (A) file a resale registration statement (the “Series K Registration Statement”) with the SEC to register for resale promptly following the Closing Date, but in no event later than 30 calendar days after the Closing Date, the sum of (i) 200% of the maximum number of Series K Conversion Shares issuable upon conversion of the Series K Preferred Stock ((x) assuming for purposes hereof that the Series K Preferred Stock are convertible at the Floor Price and (y) any such conversion shall not take into account any limitations on the conversion of the Series K Preferred Stock set forth in the Series K Certificate of Designations) and (ii) 200% of the maximum number of Investor Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Investor Warrants (without taking into account any limitations on the exercise of such Investor Warrants as set forth therein), in each case subject to the adjustments set forth in the Series K Certificate of Designations and Investor Warrants, as applicable, (B) have such Series K Registration Statement declared effective by the Effectiveness Deadline (as defined in the Series K Registration Rights Agreement and as may be amended from time to time), and (C) maintain the registration until the earlier of (x) the date on which the selling stockholders may sell their Series K Conversion Shares or Investor Warrant Shares without restriction pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act, and (y) the date on which the selling stockholders no longer hold any such Series K Conversion Shares or such Investor Warrant Shares. The Company will be obligated to pay certain liquidated damages to the investors if the Company fails to file the Series K Registration Statement when required, fails to cause the Series K Registration Statement to be declared effective by the SEC when required, or fails to maintain the effectiveness of the Series K Registration Statement pursuant to the terms of the Series K Registration Rights Agreement.

The Joint Development and License Agreement

On April 27, 2026, the Company entered into the JDA, by and between the Company and Kopin, pursuant to which the Company and Kopin agreed to collaborate on the development and commercialization of Kopin’s interface for GPU-to-GPU connectivity technology and will work together to develop a prototype and demonstration version of the Project Technology (as defined below) in accordance with one or more statements of work or purchase orders (each, a “Development Plan”) agreed in writing between the parties from time to time, which shall set out the scope, deliverables, timelines and other relevant terms of the applicable development activities. Any data communications chip technology that is to be developed by either party in performance of any Development Plan is herein referred to as the “Project Technology.”

Pursuant to the JDA, the Company has agreed to pay Kopin up to $15,000,000 for the development of the Project Technology through achievement of at least one successful prototype demonstrations (a “Successful Demo”) in accordance with the Development Plan(s) and the funding schedule agreed by the parties (the “Development Funds”). The Company has agreed to issue an initial purchase order of $5,000,000 within 10 business days after the date on which the JDA was entered into, and payable within ten business days of Kopin’s receipt of such purchase order. Further, the Company agreed that it will ensure that at least $5,000,000 of funds are available in a segregated account to cover Development Plan needs. Following this initial purchase order, the Company will pay Kopin the remaining Development Funds in installments in accordance with a time-based funding schedule agreed by the parties as part of the applicable Development Plan. Following achievement of a Successful Demo, the parties agreed to negotiate in good faith for a period of one year to agree upon a funding, development, manufacturing and commercialization plan for production deployment of the Project Technology, as agreed in writing by the parties (the “Production Plan”), which is expected to include an additional payment by the Company of approximately $15,000,000 to $25,000,000.

Pursuant to the JDA, Kopin must (i) provide the Company with periodic written reports not less than once per month concerning all material activities undertaken in respect of the applicable Development Plan, (ii) keep the Company informed on a timely basis concerning all material progress in the applicable Development Plan, and (iii) at the Company’s reasonable written request, from time to time, provide the Company with information relating to the progress of the applicable Development Plan.

In further consideration for Kopin’s contributions pursuant to the JDA, the Company initially delivered to Kopin (the “Series J Issuance”) that number of shares of Series J Preferred Stock constituting 19.9% of the pro forma fully-diluted outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), excluding shares of common stock underlying unexercised options, warrants, and other common stock equivalents, subject to certain anti-dilution adjustments upon the sale or issuance of Common Stock or common stock equivalents, or the conversion or exercise of outstanding common stock equivalents as further described below. Pursuant to the JDA, the Company agreed to take all actions necessary to give full force and effect to the adjustment provisions set forth in the Certificate of Designations Series J Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series J Certificate of Designations”), including through the issuance of additional shares of Series J Preferred Stock to Kopin in such amounts as may be required to ensure that the number of shares of Series J Preferred Stock issued to Kopin are convertible into the Maximum Issuance (as defined below) upon each Dilutive Issuance or Dilutive Conversion (as each term is defined below), as applicable, in accordance with the terms of the Series J Certificate of Designations. The Series K Conversion Shares, the Private Placement Warrant Shares and the Series J Conversion Shares (as defined below) are collectively referred to as the “Underlying Shares.”

The issuance of the Series J Preferred Stock is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act pursuant to the exemption for transactions by an issuer not involving any public offering under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and Rule 506 of Regulation D of the Securities Act and in reliance on similar exemptions under applicable state laws. Kopin has represented to the Company that it is an accredited investor within the meaning of Rule 501(a) of Regulation D and that it is acquiring the applicable securities for investment only and not with a view towards, or for resale in connection with, the public sale or distribution thereof.

Series J Convertible Preferred Stock

The terms of the Series J Preferred Stock are as set forth in the Series J Certificate of Designations, which was filed and became effective with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on April 27, 2026. The Series J Certificate of Designations was filed as Exhibit 3.1 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K, filed with the SEC on April 28, 2026, and is incorporated herein by reference.

The Series J Preferred Stock are convertible into shares of Common Stock (the “Series J Conversion Shares”) at the election of the holder at any time at an initial conversion price of $2.51 (the “Series J Conversion Price”), which such Series J Conversion Price is subject to customary adjustments for stock dividends, stock splits, reclassifications and the like.

The shares of Series J Preferred Stock rank (i) pari passu to shares of the Company’s Series H-7 Preferred Stock, and any other class or series of capital stock expressly designated as pari passu with the Series J Preferred Stock (“Parity Stock”) and (ii) senior to the Company’s Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share,, the Series H Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share, the Series H-3 Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share, the Series H-6 Preferred Stock, the Series I Preferred Stock and any other class or series of capital stock of the Company that is not expressly designated as Parity Stock or senior in rank to the Series J Preferred Stock (“Senior Preferred Stock”) (such non-designated stock, “Junior Stock”), with respect to the preferences as to dividends, distributions and payments upon the liquidation, dissolution and winding up of the Company.

The number of Series J Conversion Shares initially may not exceed 291,049 (the “Maximum Issuance”); provided, however, that upon (1) the sale and issuance, in one or more offerings, of any Common Stock or any securities entitling any person to acquire shares of Common Stock (such issuance, a “Dilutive Issuance”) or (2) the issuance of Common Stock (a “Dilutive Conversion”) in connection with any conversions or exercises of any common stock equivalents that are (x) outstanding as of April 27, 2026 or (y) approved for grant by the Board on April 27, 2026, and not yet issued or outstanding as of such date (the “Existing Common Stock Equivalents”), the Maximum Issuance (b) shall be increased to equal the sum of (i) the Maximum Issuance immediately prior to the date of such Dilutive Issuance or Dilutive Conversion, plus (ii) 0.1999 shares of Common Stock for each share of Common Stock issued in connection with such Dilutive Issuance or Dilutive Conversion, as the case may be. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Series J Certificate of Designations, once an adjustment to the Maximum Issuance has been made in respect of (A) Dilutive Issuances, and (B) any exercises for cash of Existing Common Stock Equivalents, in an aggregate amount equal to $50 million, no further adjustments shall be made for any subsequent Dilutive Conversions or Dilutive Issuances. For the avoidance of doubt, no adjustment to the Maximum Issuance may be made with respect to a Dilutive Issuance or Dilutive Conversion to the extent that the shares of Common Stock issued in connection therewith previously resulted in an adjustment to the Maximum Issuance.

Except as expressly set forth in the Series J Certificate of Designations or as otherwise required by law, the provisions of the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, the Series J Preferred Stock do not have any voting rights prior to the conversion thereof into shares of Common Stock; provided, however, that upon any such conversion of the Series J Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock, the holders of such converted shares shall be entitled to full voting rights as holders of Common Stock.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, without the prior express consent of the Required Holders (as defined in the Series J Certificate of Designations), voting together as a single class, the Company may not (a) amend or repeal any provision of, or add any provision to, its Charter or Bylaws, as amended, or file any certificate of designations or articles of amendment of any series of shares of preferred stock, if such action would adversely alter or change in any respect the preferences, rights, privileges or powers, or restrictions provided for the benefit of the Series J Preferred Stock; (b) increase or decrease (other than by conversion) the authorized number of Series J Preferred Stock; (c) create or authorize (by reclassification or otherwise) any new Senior Preferred Stock or Parity Stock; (d) purchase, repurchase or redeem any shares of Junior Stock (other than pursuant to the terms of the Company’s equity incentive plans and options and other equity awards granted under such plans (that have in good faith been approved by the Board)); (e) pay dividends or make any other distribution on any shares of any Junior Stock; (f) issue any shares of Series J Preferred Stock other than as contemplated by the Series J Certificate of Designations; or (g) circumvent a right of the Series J Preferred Stock under the Series J Certificate of Designations.

The holders of the Series J Preferred Stock are entitled to dividends of 6% per annum accruing daily, which are payable semi-annually on each June 30 and December 31 (each, a “Dividend Payment Date”) during the period in which any shares of Series J Preferred Stock remain outstanding. Dividends are payable in cash; provided, however, that the Company may, at its sole option, elect to pay any dividend in kind by issuing to the applicable holders of Series J Preferred Stock additional shares of Series J Preferred Stock having an aggregate stated value equal to the amount of the dividend then due (each such payment, a “PIK Dividend”). If the Company elects to pay a PIK Dividend, the stated value of the applicable Series J Preferred Stock shall be increased by the amount of such PIK Dividend, or the Company will issue additional shares of Series J Preferred Stock to the holder of Series J Preferred Stock reflecting such PIK Dividend. If, on a Dividend Payment Date, dividends on the Series J Preferred Stock have not been declared and paid in full, such unpaid dividends shall continue to accrue daily from and after the initial Dividend Payment Date and will compound on a semi-annual basis at the applicable rate for the Series J Preferred Stock on each subsequent Dividend Payment Date until paid in full.

Pursuant to the Series J Certificate of Designations, the Company is required to hold a meeting of its stockholders not later than July 26, 2026, to seek approval under Nasdaq Stock Market Rule 5635(d) for the issuance of shares of Common Stock in excess of 19.99% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock at prices below the “Minimum Price” (as defined in Rule 5635 of the Rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market) on the date of the JDA pursuant to the terms of the Series J Preferred Stock.

There is no established public trading market for the Series J Preferred Stock and the Company does not intend to list the Series J Preferred Stock on any national securities exchange or nationally recognized trading system.

Omnibus Amendments and Waiver Warrants

On April 27, 2026, the Company entered into an Omnibus Waiver, Consent, Notice and Amendment Agreement (the “Series H-7 Omnibus Amendment”) with the Required Holders (as defined in the Series H-7 Certificate of Designations), pursuant to which, the Required Holders agreed to amend and restate the Series H-7 Certificate of Designations by filing an Amended and Restated Certificate of Designations of the Series H-7 Preferred Stock (the “Amended and Restated Series H-7 Certificate of Designations”) with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware. The Amended and Restated Series H-7 Certificate of Designations (i) extends the maturity date of the Series H-7 Convertible Preferred Stock to October 27, 2027, and (ii) removes the amortization payments and related terms and covenants.

On April 27, 2026, the Company entered into an Omnibus Waiver, Consent, Notice and Amendment Agreement (the “Series I Omnibus Amendment” and together with the Series H-7 Omnibus Amendment, the “Omnibus Amendments”) with the Required Holders (as defined in the Series I Certificate of Designations), pursuant to which, the Required Holders agreed to amend and restate the Series I Certificate of Designations by filing an Amended and Restated Certificate of Designations of the Series I Preferred Stock (the “Amended and Restated Series I Certificate of Designations”) with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware. The Amended and Restated Series I Certificate of Designations (i) extends the maturity date of the Series I Convertible Preferred Stock to October 27, 2027, and (ii) removes the amortization payments and related terms and covenants.

Pursuant to the Omnibus Amendments, the Company issued to the Required Holders, warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 1,000,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock (the “Waiver Warrants”), pro rata based on the number of shares of Series H-7 Preferred Stock and Series I Preferred Stock held as of the date of the Omnibus Amendments.

The Waiver Warrants are exercisable for shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $5.00 per share and expire five years from the date of issuance. The exercise price of each Waiver Warrant is subject to customary adjustments for stock dividends, stock splits, reclassifications, stock combinations and the like (in each case, subject to certain exceptions).

A holder of the Waiver Warrants may not exercise any portion of such holder’s Waiver Warrants to the extent that the holder, together with its affiliates, would beneficially own more than 4.99% (or, at the election of the holder, 9.99%) of the Company’s outstanding shares of Common Stock immediately after exercise, except that upon at least 61 days’ prior notice from the holder to the Company, the holder may increase the beneficial ownership limitation to up to 9.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the exercise.

There is no established public trading market for the Waiver Warrants and the Company does not intend to list the Waiver Warrants on any national securities exchange or nationally recognized trading system.

The Waiver Warrants and shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such Waiver Warrants (the “Waiver Warrant Shares”) were issued pursuant to an exemption from registration requirements of the Securities Act, pursuant to the exemption for transactions by an issuer not involving any public offering under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and Rule 506 of Regulation D of the Securities Act and in reliance on similar exemptions under applicable state laws.

Consulting Agreement with JD Advisors, LLC

On August 4, 2025, the Company entered into a consulting services agreement (the “Prior Altucher Consulting Agreement”) with James Altucher and Z-List Media, Inc. (the “Prior Consultants”), pursuant to which, the Prior Consultants agreed to provide certain consulting services to the Company.

On April 27, 2026, the Company and the Prior Consultants agreed to amend and restate the Prior Altucher Consulting Agreement by entering into an amended and restated consulting services agreement (the “Altucher Consulting Agreement”) by and between the Company and JD Advisors, LLC, an affiliate of the Prior Consultants (the “Consultant”). Pursuant to the Altucher Consulting Agreement, the Consultant agreed to provide certain consulting services to the Company, including but not limited to: contributing to product development and roadmap decisions, leading and advising on marketing strategy, branding and go-to-market execution, assisting with recruiting, hiring and team-building efforts, managing and guiding social media presence and communications and supporting general management initiatives across the business and any other consulting or advisory services which the Company reasonably requests that the Consultant provide to the Company. The Altucher Consulting Agreement has a term of two years unless earlier terminated pursuant to the terms of the Altucher Consulting Agreement or upon the mutual written consent of the Company and the Consultant in accordance with the terms of the Altucher Consulting Agreement.

Pursuant to the Altucher Consulting Agreement, and subject to the Consultant entering into a warrant cancellation agreement for the purpose of cancelling previously issued warrants to purchase up to 900,000 shares of Common Stock under the Prior Altucher Consulting Agreement, the Company issued to the Consultant warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 900,000 shares of Common Stock, consisting of: (i) a warrant to purchase up to 300,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $3.00 per share, which is immediately exercisable upon issuance (the “First Tranche Warrant”), (ii) a warrant to purchase up to 200,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $6.00 per share, which is exercisable six months from the date of issuance (the “Second Tranche Warrant”), (iii) a warrant to purchase up to 200,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $9.00 per share (the “Third Tranche Warrant”), which is exercisable twelve months from the date of issuance, and (iv) a warrant to purchase up to 200,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $12.00 per share (the “Fourth Tranche Warrant” and together with the First Tranche Warrant, the Second Tranche Warrant and the Third Tranche Warrant, the “Consulting Warrants”), which is exercisable eighteen months from the date of issuance, in each case, with each Consulting Warrant subject to exercisability, forfeiture and such other terms as set forth therein and having a term of five years from the date of the applicable issuance.

There is no established public trading market for the Consulting Warrants and the Company does not intend to list the Consulting Warrants on any national securities exchange or nationally recognized trading system.

The Consulting Warrants and shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such Consulting Warrants (the “Consulting Warrant Shares”) were issued pursuant to an exemption from registration requirements of the Securities Act, pursuant to the exemption for transactions by an issuer not involving any public offering under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and Rule 506 of Regulation D of the Securities Act and in reliance on similar exemptions under applicable state laws.

Effect of Issuance of the Securities

The shares of Series K Preferred Stock are initially convertible into up to an aggregate of 8,565,737 shares of our Common Stock at the initial Series K Conversion Price, the Investor Warrants are initially exercisable into up to an aggregate of 8,565,737 shares of our Common Stock at the initial exercise price of $2.51 per share. The Placement Agent Warrants are initially exercisable into up to an aggregate of 685,258 shares of our Common Stock at the initial exercise price of $2.51 per share.

The 51,575 shares of Series J Preferred Stock initially issued are convertible into a number of shares represented by the Maximum Issuance described above, provided, however, that upon (1) a Dilutive Issuance or (2) a Dilutive Conversion in connection with any conversions or exercises of any Existing Common Stock Equivalents, the Maximum Issuance (b) shall be increased to equal the sum of (i) the Maximum Issuance immediately prior to the date of such Dilutive Issuance or Dilutive Conversion, plus (ii) 0.1999 shares of Common Stock for each share of Common Stock issued in connection with such Dilutive Issuance or Dilutive Conversion, as the case may be. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Series J Certificate of Designations, once an adjustment to the Maximum Issuance has been made in respect of (A) Dilutive Issuances, and (B) any exercises for cash of Existing Common Stock Equivalents, in an aggregate amount equal to $50 million, no further adjustments shall be made for any subsequent Dilutive Conversions or Dilutive Issuances. For the avoidance of doubt, no adjustment to the Maximum Issuance may be made with respect to a Dilutive Issuance or Dilutive Conversion to the extent that the shares of Common Stock issued in connection therewith previously resulted in an adjustment to the Maximum Issuance.. Pursuant to the JDA, the Company agreed to take all actions necessary to give full force and effect to the adjustment provisions set forth in the Series J Certificate of Designation, including through the issuance of additional shares of Series J Preferred Stock to Kopin in such amounts as may be required to ensure that the number of shares of Series J Preferred Stock issued to Kopin are convertible into the Maximum Issuance upon each Dilutive Issuance or Dilutive Conversion, as applicable, in accordance with the terms of the Series J Certificate of Designations.

In the event that we issue shares of Common Stock, or securities convertible, exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock, at a price below the then-applicable Series K Conversion Price or exercise price of the Private Placement Warrants, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the Series K Preferred Stock and the exercise of the Private Placement Warrants would be greater than the number issuable at the current Series K Conversion Price and/or current exercise price, as applicable. In the event of a Dilutive Issuance, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series J Preferred Stock would be greater than the number of Series J Conversion Shares currently issuable.

The potential issuance of Underlying Shares, Waiver Warrant Shares and Consulting Warrant Shares would result in an increase in the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding, and our stockholders will incur dilution of their percentage ownership to the extent that the Series K Preferred Stock and Series J Preferred Stock is converted or the Private Placement Warrants, Waiver Warrants or Consulting Warrants are exercised, or additional shares, if any, of Common Stock are issued pursuant to the terms of the Series K Preferred Stock, the Series J Preferred Stock, the Private Placement Warrants, the Waiver Warrants or the Consulting Warrants. Because of potential adjustments to the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series K Preferred Stock and exercise of the Private Placement Warrants issued in connection with the Private Placement, the exact magnitude of the dilutive effect of the Series K Preferred Stock and the Private Placement Warrants cannot be conclusively determined. In addition, because of adjustments to the Maximum Issuance of the Series J Preferred Stock upon each Dilutive Issuance or Dilutive Conversion the exact magnitude of the dilutive effect cannot be conclusively determined. However, the dilutive effect may be material to our current stockholders.

The Issuance Proposal

Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d) requires us to obtain stockholder approval prior to the issuance of securities in connection with a transaction other than a public offering involving the sale, issuance or potential issuance by us of our Common Stock (or securities convertible into or exercisable for our Common Stock), which equals 20% or more of our Common Stock or 20% or more of the voting power outstanding immediately prior to the issuance at a price less than the Minimum Price. In the case of the Private Placement, the Series J Issuance, Waiver Warrants and the Consulting Warrants, the 20% threshold is determined based on the shares of our Common Stock outstanding immediately preceding the signing of the Purchase Agreement, JDA, Omnibus Amendments and Altucher Consulting Agreement, each of which were signed on April 27, 2026.

Immediately prior to the execution of the Purchase Agreement, JDA, Omnibus Amendments and Altucher Consulting Agreement, we had 1,455,975 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding. Therefore, the potential issuance of the Underlying Shares, Waiver Warrant Shares and Consulting Warrant Shares would have constituted, or will constitute, greater than 20% of the shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding prior to giving effect to the Private Placement, Series J Issuance, Waiver Warrants and Consulting Warrants. We are seeking stockholder approval under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d) for the sale, issuance or potential issuance by us of our Common Stock (or securities convertible into or exercisable for our Common Stock) in excess of 291,195 shares, which is 20% of the shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding on the date of entry into the Purchase Agreement, JDA, Omnibus Amendments and Altucher Consulting Agreement.

We generally have no control over whether the holders of the Series K Preferred Stock or Series J Preferred Stock convert their shares of Series K Preferred Stock or Series J Preferred Stock, whether the Warrant holders exercise their Warrants. Additionally, the Series K Conversion Price and exercise price of the Private Placement Warrants is subject to price-based adjustments in the event of any issuances of Common Stock, or securities convertible, exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock, at a price below the then-applicable Series K Conversion Price or exercise price of the Private Placement Warrants (subject to certain exceptions). For these reasons, we are unable to accurately forecast or predict with any certainty the total amount of Underlying Shares that may be issued. Under certain circumstances, however, it is possible, that we will issue more than 20% of our outstanding shares of Common Stock in the aggregate to the holders of the Series K Preferred Stock, Series J Preferred Stock and Warrants. Therefore, we are seeking stockholder approval under this proposal to issue more than 20% of our outstanding shares of Common Stock, if necessary, to the current or future holders of the Series K Preferred Stock, Series J Preferred Stock and/or Warrants.

Any transaction requiring approval by our stockholders under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d) would likely result in a significant increase in the number of shares of our Common Stock outstanding, and, as a result, our current stockholders will own a smaller percentage of our outstanding shares of Common Stock.

Future issuances of securities in connection with the Private Placement and JDA, if any, may cause a significant reduction in the percentage interests of our current stockholders in voting power, any liquidation value, our book and market value, and any future earnings. Further, the issuance or resale of Common Stock issued to the holders of the Series J Preferred Stock, Series K Preferred Stock or Warrants could cause the market price of our Common Stock to decline. In addition to the foregoing, the increase in the number of issued shares of Common Stock in connection with the Private Placement and JDA may have an incidental anti-takeover effect in that additional shares could be used to dilute the stock ownership of parties seeking to obtain control of us. The increased number of issued shares could discourage the possibility of, or render more difficult, certain mergers, tender offers, proxy contests or other change of control or ownership transactions.

Under the Nasdaq Listing Rules, we are not permitted (without risk of delisting) to undertake a transaction that could result in a change in control of us without seeking and obtaining separate stockholder approval.

Consequences of Not Approving this Proposal

After extensive efforts to raise capital on more favorable terms, we believed that the Private Placement was the only viable financing alternative available to us at the time. Unless we obtain stockholder approval for this Issuance Proposal, we will be required to incur additional costs in order to hold an additional stockholder meeting within 90 days to seek such approval, and if approval is still not obtained, to hold additional stockholder meetings semi-annually thereafter, as required under the Purchase Agreement. Further, until such time as we obtain stockholder approval for this Issuance Proposal, we will not be able to effect any conversions of Series K Preferred Stock or Series J Preferred Stock and any exercises of the Warrants in excess of 19.99% of the shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding on the date of entry into the Purchase Agreement, JDA, Omnibus Amendments and Altucher Consulting Agreement.

Additionally, pursuant to the Purchase Agreement: (A) unless Stockholder Approval is obtained, the Company may not effect (i) any Dilutive Issuance (as defined in the Series K Certificate of Designations) or (ii) without the prior written consent of the Required Holders (as defined in the Series K Certificate of Designations), issue or sell (or enter into any agreement or publicly announce the intention to grant, issue or sell) securities containing any anti-dilution price-based adjustments, and (B) until ninety (90) days following the earlier of (x) the date on which the resale by the Investors of all the Registrable Securities (as defined in the Series K Registration Rights Agreement) required to be filed on the initial Registration Statement pursuant to the Series K Registration Rights Agreement is declared effective by the SEC (and each prospectus contained therein is available for use on such date) or (y) the date on which the selling stockholders may sell their Series K Conversion Shares or shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Investor Warrants without restriction pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act, we may not issue, offer, sell, grant any option or right to purchase, or otherwise dispose of (or announce any issuance, offer, sale, grant of any option or right to purchase or other disposition of) any equity security or any equity-linked or related security.

Interests of Certain Persons

When you consider our Board’s recommendation to vote in favor of this proposal, you should be aware that our directors and executive officers and existing stockholders may have interests that may be different from, or in addition to, the interests of other of our stockholders. In particular, Iroquois Capital Investment Group, LLC (“ICIG”), which beneficially owns more than 5% of our voting securities, and its affiliate Iroquois Master Fund Ltd. (“IMF”), participated in the Private Placement. ICIG and IMF may be unable to convert all of the shares of Series K Preferred Stock and exercise all of the Investor Warrants issued to them in connection with the Private Placement if the Issuance Proposal is not approved by our stockholders. ICIG and IMF, together, may, by virtue of the issuance of the Series K Conversion Shares and Private Placement Warrant Shares to which each is entitled upon conversion of their respective Series K Preferred Stock at the initial Series K Conversion Price or exercise of their respective Investor Warrants at the initial exercise price, respectively, acquire rights to a majority of the voting power of us, based on the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding as of the Record Date.

For further information, please refer to the forms of the Purchase Agreement, the Series K Registration Rights Agreement, the Private Placement Warrants, the JDA, Series J Certificate of Designations, Series K Certificate of Designations, Waiver Warrants and Consulting Warrants which were filed with the SEC as exhibits to our Current Report on Form 8-K filed on April 28, 2026, and are incorporated herein by reference.

Vote Required

The affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast by the stockholders present or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on this proposal, voting affirmatively or negatively (excluding abstentions and broker non-votes), is required to adopt the proposal to approve the Issuance Proposal. “ABSTAIN” votes will have no effect on the outcome of the Issuance Proposal. Because the Issuance Proposal is not considered a routine matter, your bank, broker, trustee or other nominee, as the case may be, will not be able to vote your shares without your instruction with respect to the Issuance Proposal. As a result, the failure to instruct your bank, broker, trustee or other nominee as to how to vote on the Issuance Proposal will result in a broker non-vote, which will have no effect on the results of this vote..

THE BOARD RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE “FOR” THE ISSUANCE PROPOSAL AND PROXIES SOLICITED BY THE BOARD WILL BE VOTED IN FAVOR OF THE PROPOSAL UNLESS A STOCKHOLDER INDICATES OTHERWISE ON THE PROXY.

AUDIT COMMITTEE MATTERS

Audit Committee Report

The Audit Committee assists the Board in its general oversight of the Company’s financial reporting processes. The Audit Committee Charter describes in greater detail the full responsibilities of the Audit Committee. During each fiscal year, the Audit Committee reviews the Company’s financial statements, management reports, internal control over financial reporting and audit matters. In connection with these reviews, the Audit Committee meets with management and independent public accountants at least once each quarter. The Audit Committee schedules its meetings with a view to ensuring that it devotes appropriate attention to all of its tasks. These meetings include, whenever appropriate, executive sessions in which the Audit Committee meets separately with the independent public accountants, financial management personnel and legal counsel.

As part of its review of audit matters, the Audit Committee supervises the relationship between the Company and its independent registered public accountants, including: having direct responsibility for their appointment, compensation and retention; reviewing the scope of their audit services; approving audit and non-audit services; and confirming the independence of the independent public accountants. Together with senior members of the Company’s financial management team, the Audit Committee reviewed the overall audit scope and plans of the independent public accountants, the results of external audit examinations, and evaluations by management of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting and the quality of the Company’s financial reporting.

In addition, the Audit Committee reviewed key initiatives and programs aimed at designing and maintaining an effective internal and disclosure control structure. As part of this process, the Audit Committee continued to monitor the scope and adequacy of the steps taken to maintain the effectiveness of internal procedures and controls.

In performing all of these functions, the Audit Committee acts in an oversight capacity. The Audit Committee reviews and discusses the quarterly and annual consolidated financial statements with management, and the Company’s independent public accountants prior to their issuance. In its oversight role, the Audit Committee relies on the work and assurances of the Company’s management, which is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, preparing the financial statements and other reports and maintaining policies relating to legal and regulatory compliance, ethics and conflicts of interest. Stephano Slack LLC was responsible for performing an independent audit of the consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 and expressing an opinion on the conformity of those financial statements with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and related footnotes for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, and the former independent auditor’s report on those financial statements, with management and with our former independent auditor for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, Marcum LLP.

The Audit Committee has reviewed with the independent public accountants the matters required to be discussed by the applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board and the SEC, including a discussion with management and the independent public accountants of the quality (and not merely the acceptability) of the Company’s accounting principles, the reasonableness of significant estimates and judgments and the disclosures in the Company’s financial statements. In addition, the Audit Committee reviewed and discussed with Stephano Slack LLC matters related to its independence, including a review of audit and non-audit fees and the written disclosures in the letter from Stephano Slack LLC to the Audit Committee required by applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding the independent public accountants’ communication with the Audit Committee concerning independence. The Audit Committee concluded that Stephano Slack LLC is independent from the Company and its management.

Taking all these reviews and discussions into account, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board that the audited financial statements be included in Fabric.AI’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, that was filed with the SEC.

PROPOSAL NO. 3 - AUDITOR RATIFICATION PROPOSAL

The Audit Committee has appointed Stephano Slack LLC as the independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026, subject to stockholder ratification. The Board proposes that the stockholders ratify, in a non-binding vote, this appointment.

The Audit Committee has reviewed the independence of Stephano Slack LLC as auditor. The Audit Committee has concluded that Stephano Slack LLC is independent and that it is in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders to retain Stephano Slack LLC as independent auditor for 2026.

No representative of Stephano Slack LLC will be present at the Annual Meeting.

Marcum LLP served as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm from September 21, 2022 until April 10, 2025. As previously disclosed in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on April 11, 2025, based on information provided by Marcum LLP, CBIZ CPAs P.C. acquired the attest business of Marcum LLP, effective November 1, 2024. Marcum LLP continued to serve as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm through April 10, 2025. On April 10, 2025, the Company terminated its relationship with Marcum LLP as the Company’s independent registered accounting firm and, with the approval of the Audit Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors, engaged CBIZ CPAs P.C. as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025. On September 18, 2025 the Company terminated its relationship with CBIZ CPAs P.C. as the Company’s independent registered accounting firm and on September 19, 2025, with the approval of the Audit Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors, engaged Stephano Slack LLC as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025.

CBIZ CPAs did not issue any audit report during the period of its engagement.

From April 10, 2025 through September 18, 2025, the date of CBIZ CPAs P.C.’s dismissal, there were (a) no disagreements (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions) between the Company and CBIZ CPAs P.C. on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedures, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of CBIZ CPAs P.C., would have caused CBIZ CPAs P.C. to make reference to such disagreement in its reports, if such reports had been issued, and (b) no “reportable events” (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions), except for the material weakness in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting due to: (i) the fact that the Company was unable to document, formalize, implement and revise where necessary controls, policies and procedure documentation to evidence a system of controls, inclusive of IT controls, including testing of such controls that is consistent with the Company’s current personnel and available resources; (ii) the failure to document, maintain and test effective control activities over the Company’s control environment, risk assessment, information technology and monitoring components; and (iii) the Company’s insufficient segregation of duties, oversight of work performed and lack of compensating controls in the Company’s finance and accounting functions, including, without limitation, the processing, review and authorization of all routine and non-routine transactions, due to limited personnel and resources, each as disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024.

During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2024, and December 31, 2023, and the subsequent interim period through September 19, 2025, the Company did not consult with Stephano Slack LLC regarding (i) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s consolidated financial statements, or (ii) any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement (as described in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions) or a reportable event (as described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions).

Approval of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm Services and Fees

The Board requests that stockholders ratify the appointment of Stephano Slack LLC as the independent registered public accounting firm to conduct the audit of our financial statements for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026. In the event that the stockholders fail to ratify the selection, the Board will reconsider whether or not to retain that firm. Even if the selection is ratified, the Board, in its discretion, may direct the appointment of a different independent registered public accounting firm at any time during the fiscal year if the Board determines that such a change could be in the best interest of our stockholders.

PROPOSAL NO. 4 – INCENTIVE PLAN AMENDMENT PROPOSAL

The Board is seeking the approval of our stockholders of a fifth amendment to the Fabric.AI, Inc. Long-Term Equity Incentive Plan, which was adopted by the Board on May 22, 2026, subject to stockholder approval (the “Incentive Plan Amendment”). The Plan was originally approved by the Board on April 21, 2020, and by our stockholders on May 28, 2020. Under the Plan as originally adopted, we initially reserved 2,289,650 shares (without giving effect to the Reverse Stock Splits (as defined below)) of our Common Stock for issuance as awards under the Plan. The Plan was amended by the First Amendment to the Plan (the “First Amendment”) to increase the total number of shares of our Common Stock for issuance under the Plan to 4,089,650 shares (without giving effect to the Reverse Stock Splits), which was adopted by the Board on November 6, 2020, and by our stockholders on December 17, 2020. The Plan was also amended by the Second Amendment to the Plan (the “Second Amendment”) to increase the total number of shares of our Common Stock for issuance under the Plan to 9,839,650 shares (without giving effect to the Reverse Stock Splits) which was adopted by the Board on August 18, 2023, and by our stockholders on September 14, 2023. Subsequently, on September 15, 2023, the Company subsequently effected a 1-for-8 reverse stock split of its Common Stock, after which the number of shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance pursuant to awards under the Plan was adjusted to 1,229,956 (the “2023 Reverse Stock Split”). The Plan was further amended by the Third Amendment to the Plan (the “Third Amendment”) to increase the total number of shares of our Common Stock for issuance under the Plan to 4,229,956 shares (without giving effect to the Reverse Stock Splits) which was adopted by the Board on November 25, 2024, and by our stockholders on December 30, 2024. Subsequently, on June 25, 2025, the Company subsequently effected a 1-for-16 reverse stock split of its Common Stock, after which the number of shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance pursuant to awards under the Plan was adjusted to 264,373 (the “2025 Reverse Stock Split” and, together with the 2023 Reverse Stock Split, the “Reverse Stock Splits”). The Plan was further amended by the Fourth Amendment to the Plan (the “Fourth Amendment”) to increase the total number of shares of our Common Stock for issuance under the Plan to 400,000 shares which was adopted by the Board on September 8, 2025, and by our stockholders on October 3, 2025.

As of the Record Date, there were 92 shares remaining available for future issuance as awards under the Plan. The Incentive Plan Amendment would further increase the number of shares of Common Stock available for issuance pursuant to awards under the Plan by an additional 2,800,000 shares, to a total of 3,200,000 shares of our Common Stock.

Background and Purpose of the Proposal

We believe that operation of the Plan is a necessary and powerful tool in enabling us to attract and retain the best available personnel for positions of substantial responsibility; to provide additional incentive to key employees, key contractors, and non-employee directors; and to promote the success of our business. The Plan is expected to provide flexibility to our compensation methods in order to adapt the compensation of such employees, contractors, and directors to a changing business environment, after giving due consideration to competitive conditions and the impact of federal tax laws. We have strived to use our Plan resources effectively and to maintain an appropriate balance between stockholder interests and the ability to recruit and retain valuable employees. However, we believe there is an insufficient number of shares remaining under our Plan to meet our current and projected needs. Accordingly, it is the judgment of the Board that the Incentive Plan Amendment is in the best interest of the Company and its stockholders. We believe that the Incentive Plan Amendment, which increases the number of shares of Common Stock available for issuance pursuant to awards under the Plan, reflects best practices in our industry and is appropriate to permit the grant of equity awards at expected levels for the future.

In determining the number of additional shares to be reserved under the Plan, the Board considered the Company’s capitalization on a fully diluted basis. The Company currently has a significant number of shares of convertible preferred stock outstanding, including shares of Series H-6 Preferred Stock, Series H-7 Preferred Stock, Series I Preferred Stock, Series J Preferred Stock and Series K Preferred Stock, as well as certain warrants. The exercise prices of certain of the outstanding warrants are near the current trading price of the Common Stock, and the Board believes it is reasonably likely that a substantial portion of the outstanding convertible preferred stock will be converted, and a substantial portion of the outstanding warrants will be exercised, in the near term. The Board therefore concluded that it was prudent to set the share reserve under the Plan at a level that accounts for the potential dilutive effect of such conversions and exercises, so that the Company will have a sufficient number of shares available for issuance as equity awards on a fully diluted basis.

In addition, the Board considered the Company’s anticipated need to grant equity awards in connection with the JDA with Kopin. Among other things, the Company expects to make equity awards under the Plan to the chairperson of the joint steering committee established under the JDA, and the Board determined that the share reserve under the Incentive Plan Amendment should be sufficient to accommodate such anticipated awards.

A copy of the Incentive Plan Amendment, the First Amendment, the Second Amendment, the Third Amendment, the Fourth Amendment and the Plan are included as Annex A, Annex B, Annex C, Annex D, Annex E, and Annex F respectively, to this Proxy Statement. Described below is a summary of certain key provisions of the Plan, which is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Plan, as amended.

Summary of the Proposed Incentive Plan Amendment

The Board adopted the Incentive Plan Amendment on May 22, 2026, subject to stockholder approval, to increase the number of shares of our Common Stock available for issuance pursuant to awards under the Plan by an additional 2,800,000 shares, to a total of 3,200,000 shares of our Common Stock.

Description of the Plan

Purpose. The purpose of the Plan is to enable us to remain competitive and innovative in our ability to attract and retain the services of key employees, key contractors, and non-employee directors of the Company or any of our subsidiaries. The Plan provides for the granting of incentive stock options, nonqualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance awards, dividend equivalent rights, and other awards, which may be granted singly, in combination, or in tandem, and which may be paid in cash or shares of our Common Stock. The Plan is expected to provide flexibility to our compensation methods in order to adapt the compensation of our key employees, key contractors, and non-employee directors to a changing business environment, after giving due consideration to competitive conditions and the impact of applicable tax laws.

Effective Date and Expiration. The Plan was approved by the Board on April 21, 2020 (the “Effective Date”), subject to the Plan’s approval by our stockholders, the First Amendment was approved by the Board on November 6, 2020, the Second Amendment was approved by the Board on August 18, 2023, the Third Amendment was approved by the Board on November 25, 2024 and the Fourth Amendment was approved by the Board on September 18, 2025. The Plan will terminate on the tenth anniversary of the Effective Date, unless sooner terminated by the Board. No award may be made under the Plan after its termination date, but awards made prior to the termination date may extend beyond that date in accordance with their terms.

Share Authorization. Subject to certain adjustments, the number of shares of our Common Stock that are reserved for issuance pursuant to awards under the Plan is currently 400,000 shares, 100% of which may be delivered as incentive stock options. If the Incentive Plan Amendment is approved, the total number of shares that may be issued pursuant to awards will be increased by 2,800,000 shares for a total of 3,200,000 shares, 100% of which may be delivered as incentive stock options.

Shares to be issued may be made available from authorized but unissued shares of our Common Stock, shares held by us in our treasury, or shares purchased by us on the open market or otherwise. During the term of the Plan, we will at all times reserve and keep enough shares available to satisfy the requirements of the Plan. If an award under the Plan is cancelled, forfeited, or expires, in whole or in part, the shares subject to such forfeited, expired, or cancelled award may again be awarded under the Plan. In the event that previously acquired shares are delivered to us in full or partial payment of the option price upon the exercise of a stock option or other award granted under the Plan, the number of shares available for future awards under the Plan shall be reduced only by the net number of shares issued upon the exercise of the stock option or settlement of an award. Awards that may be satisfied either by the issuance of Common Stock or by cash or other consideration shall be counted against the maximum number of shares that may be issued under the Plan only during the period that the award is outstanding or to the extent the award is ultimately satisfied by the issuance of shares. An award will not reduce the number of shares that may be issued pursuant to the Plan if the settlement of the award will not require the issuance of shares, as, for example, a stock appreciation right that can be satisfied only by the payment of cash. Only shares forfeited back to us; shares cancelled on account of termination, expiration, or lapse of an award; shares surrendered in payment of the option price of an option; or shares withheld for payment of applicable employment taxes and/or withholding obligations resulting from the exercise of a stock option shall again be available for grant as incentive stock options under the Plan, but shall not increase the maximum number of shares described above as the maximum number of shares that may be delivered pursuant to incentive stock options.

Administration. The Plan shall be administered by the Board or such committee of the board as it designated by it to administer the Plan (the “Committee”). At any time there is no Committee to administer the Plan, any reference to the Committee is a reference to the Board. The Committee will determine the persons to whom awards are to be made; determine the type, size, and terms of awards; interpret the Plan; establish and revise rules and regulations relating to the Plan; establish performance goals for awards and certify the extent of their achievement; and make any other determinations that it believes are necessary for the administration of the Plan. The Committee may delegate certain of its duties to one or more of our officers as provided in the Plan.

Eligibility. Employees (including any employee who is also a director or an officer), contractors, and non-employee directors of the Company or any of our subsidiaries, whose judgment, initiative, and efforts contributed to or may be expected to contribute to our successful performance, are eligible to participate in the Plan. As of the Record Date, we had no employee, no contractors and 5 non-employee directors who would be eligible for awards under the Plan.

Stock Options. The Committee may grant either incentive stock options (“ISOs”) qualifying under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), or nonqualified stock options, provided that only employees of the Company and our subsidiaries (excluding subsidiaries that are not corporations) are eligible to receive ISOs. Stock options may not be granted with an option price less than 100% of the fair market value of a share of Common Stock on the date the stock option is granted. If an ISO is granted to an employee who owns or is deemed to own more than 10% of the combined voting power of all classes of our stock (or of any parent or subsidiary), the option price shall be at least 110% of the fair market value of a share of Common Stock on the date of grant. The Committee will determine the terms of each stock option at the time of grant, including, without limitation, the methods by or forms in which shares will be delivered to participants or registered in their names. The maximum term of each option, the times at which each option will be exercisable, and provisions requiring forfeiture of unexercised options at or following termination of employment or service generally are fixed by the Committee, except that the Committee may not grant stock options with a term exceeding 10 years or, in the case of an ISO granted to an employee who owns or is deemed to own more than 10% of the combined voting power of all classes of our stock (or of any parent or subsidiary), a term exceeding five years.

Recipients of stock options may pay the option price (i) in cash, check, bank draft, or money order payable to the order of the Company; (ii) by delivering to us shares of Common Stock (included restricted stock) already owned by the participant having a fair market value equal to the aggregate option price and that the participant has not acquired from us within six months prior to the exercise date; (iii) by delivering to us or our designated agent an executed irrevocable option exercise form, together with irrevocable instructions from the participant to a broker or dealer, reasonably acceptable to us, to sell certain of the shares purchased upon the exercise of the option or to pledge such shares to the broker as collateral for a loan from the broker and to deliver to us the amount of sale or loan proceeds necessary to pay the purchase price; (iv) by requesting us to withhold the number of shares otherwise deliverable upon exercise of the stock option by the number of shares having an aggregate fair market value equal to the aggregate option price at the time of exercise (i.e., a cashless net exercise); and (v) by any other form of valid consideration that is acceptable to the Committee in its sole discretion.

Stock Appreciation Rights. The Committee is authorized to grant stock appreciation rights (“SARs”) as a stand-alone award (or freestanding SARs) or in conjunction with options granted under the Plan (or tandem SARs). SARs entitle a participant to receive an amount equal to the excess of the fair market value of a share of Common Stock on the date of exercise over the fair market value of a share of our Common Stock on the date of grant. The grant price of a SAR cannot be less than 100% of the fair market value of a share of our Common Stock on the date of grant. The Committee will determine the terms of each SAR award at the time of the grant, including, without limitation, the methods by or forms in which shares will be delivered to participants or registered in their names. The maximum term of each SAR award, the times at which each SAR award will be exercisable, and provisions requiring forfeiture of unexercised SARs at or following termination of employment or service generally are fixed by the Committee, except that no freestanding SAR may have a term exceeding 10 years and no tandem SAR may have a term exceeding the term of the option granted in conjunction with the tandem SAR. Distributions to the recipient may be made in Common Stock, cash, or a combination of both as determined by the Committee.

Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units. The Committee is authorized to grant restricted stock and restricted stock units. Restricted stock consists of shares of our Common Stock that may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged, hypothecated, encumbered, or otherwise disposed of, and that may be forfeited in the event of certain terminations of employment or service, prior to the end of the restricted period as specified by the Committee. Restricted stock units are the right to receive shares of Common Stock at a future date in accordance with the terms of such grant upon the attainment of certain conditions specified by the Committee, which include a substantial risk of forfeiture and restrictions on their sale or other transfer by the participant. The Committee determines the eligible participants to whom, and the time or times at which, grants of restricted stock or restricted stock units will be made; the number of shares or units to be granted; the price to be paid, if any; the time or times within which the shares covered by such grants will be subject to forfeiture; the time or times at which the restrictions will terminate; and all other terms and conditions of the grants. Restrictions or conditions could include, but are not limited to, the attainment of performance goals (as described below), continuous service with us, the passage of time, or other restrictions or conditions. Except as otherwise provided in the Plan or the applicable award agreement, a participant shall have, with respect to shares of restricted stock, all of the rights of a stockholder of the Company holding the class of Common Stock that is the subject of the restricted stock, including, if applicable, the right to vote the Common Stock and the right to receive any dividends thereon.

Dividend Equivalent Rights. The Committee is authorized to grant a dividend equivalent right to any participant, either as a component of another award or as a separate award, conferring upon the participant the right to receive credits based on the cash dividends that would have been paid on the shares of Common Stock specified in the award as if such shares were held by the participant. The terms and conditions of the dividend equivalent right shall be specified in the grant. Dividend equivalents credited to the holder of a dividend equivalent right may be paid currently or may be deemed to be reinvested in additional shares. Any such reinvestment shall be at the fair market value at the time thereof. A dividend equivalent right may be settled in cash, shares, or a combination thereof.

Performance Awards. The Committee may grant performance awards payable at the end of a specified performance period in cash, shares of Common Stock, units, or other rights based upon, payable in, or otherwise related to our Common Stock. Payment will be contingent upon achieving pre-established performance goals (as described below) by the end of the applicable performance period. The Committee will determine the length of the performance period, the maximum payment value of an award, and the minimum performance goals required before payment will be made, so long as such provisions are not inconsistent with the terms of the Plan, and to the extent an award is subject to Section 409A of the Code, are in compliance with the applicable requirements of Section 409A of the Code and any applicable regulations or guidance. In certain circumstances, the Committee may, in its discretion, determine that the amount payable with respect to certain performance awards will be reduced from the maximum amount of any potential awards. If the Committee determines, in its sole discretion, that the established performance measures or objectives are no longer suitable because of a change in our business, operations, corporate structure, or for other reasons that the Committee deems satisfactory, the Committee may modify the performance measures or objectives and/or the performance period.

Performance Goals. Awards of restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance awards, and other awards under the Plan may be made subject to the attainment of performance goals relating to one or more business criteria which shall consist of one or more or any combination of the following criteria (“Performance Criteria”): cash flow; cost; revenues; sales; ratio of debt to debt plus equity; net borrowing, credit quality, or debt ratings; profit before tax; economic profit; earnings before interest and taxes; earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization; gross margin; earnings per share (whether on a pre-tax, after-tax, operational, or other basis); operating earnings; capital expenditures; expenses or expense levels; economic value added; ratio of operating earnings to capital spending or any other operating ratios; free cash flow; net profit; net sales; net asset value per share; the accomplishment of mergers, acquisitions, dispositions, public offerings, or similar extraordinary business transactions; sales growth; price of the shares; return on assets, equity, or stockholders’ equity; market share; inventory levels, inventory turn or shrinkage; or total return to stockholders. Any Performance Criteria may be used to measure our performance as a whole or of any of our business units and may be measured relative to a peer group or index. Any Performance Criteria may include or exclude (i) events that are of an unusual nature or indicate infrequency of occurrence, (ii) gains or losses on the disposition of a business; (iii) changes in tax or accounting regulations or laws; (iv) the effect of a merger or acquisition, as identified in our quarterly and annual earnings releases; or (v) other similar occurrences. In all other respects, Performance Criteria shall be calculated in accordance with our financial statements, under generally accepted accounting principles, or under a methodology established by the Committee prior to the issuance of an award, which is consistently applied and identified in the Company’s audited financial statements, including in footnotes, or the Compensation Discussion and Analysis section of the Company’s annual report.

Other Awards. The Committee may grant other forms of awards, based upon, payable in, or that otherwise relate to, in whole or in part, shares of our Common Stock, if the Committee determines that such other form of award is consistent with the purpose and restrictions of the Plan. The terms and conditions of such other form of award shall be specified in the grant. Such other awards may be granted for no cash consideration, for such minimum consideration as may be required by applicable law, or for such other consideration as may be specified in the grant.

Vesting, Forfeiture and Recoupment, Assignment. The Committee, in its sole discretion, may determine that an award will be immediately vested, in whole or in part, or that all or any portion may not be vested until a date, or dates, subsequent to its date of grant, or until the occurrence of one or more specified events, subject in any case to the terms of the Plan. If the Committee imposes conditions upon vesting, then, subsequent to the date of grant, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, accelerate the date on which all or any portion of the award may be vested.

The Committee may impose on any award at the time of grant or thereafter, such additional terms and conditions as the Committee determines, including terms requiring forfeiture of awards in the event of a participant’s termination of service. The Committee will specify the circumstances on which performance awards may be forfeited in the event of a termination of service by a participant prior to the end of a performance period or settlement of such awards. Except as otherwise determined by the Committee, restricted stock will be forfeited upon a participant’s termination of service during the applicable restriction period. In addition, we may recoup all or any portion of any shares or cash paid to a participant in connection with any award in the event of a restatement of the Company’s financial statements as set forth in the Company’s clawback policy, if any, as such policy may be approved or modified by the Board from time to time.

Awards granted under the Plan generally are not assignable or transferable except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, except that the Committee may, in its discretion and pursuant to the terms of an award agreement, permit transfers of nonqualified stock options or SARs to (i) the spouse (or former spouse), children, or grandchildren of the participant (“Immediate Family Members”); (ii) a trust or trusts for the exclusive benefit of such Immediate Family Members; (iii) a partnership in which the only partners are (a) such Immediate Family Members and/or (b) entities which are controlled by the participant and/or his or her Immediate Family Members; (iv) an entity exempt from federal income tax pursuant to Section 501(c)(3) of the Code or any successor provision; or (v) a split interest trust or pooled income fund described in Section 2522(c)(2) of the Code or any successor provision, provided that (x) there shall be no consideration for any such transfer, (y) the applicable award agreement pursuant to which such nonqualified stock options or SARs are granted must be approved by the Committee and must expressly provide for such transferability, and (z) subsequent transfers of transferred nonqualified stock options or SARs shall be prohibited except those by will or the laws of descent and distribution.

Adjustments Upon Changes in Capitalization. In the event that any dividend or other distribution (whether in the form of cash, shares of our Common Stock, other securities or other property), recapitalization, stock split, reverse stock split, rights offering, reorganization, merger, consolidation, split-up, spin-off, split-off, combination, subdivision, repurchase, or exchange of shares of Common Stock or other securities of the Company, issuance of warrants or other rights to purchase shares of Common Stock or other securities of the Company, or other similar corporate transaction or event affects the fair value of an award, then the Committee shall adjust any or all of the following so that the fair value of the award immediately after the transaction or event is equal to the fair value of the award immediately prior to the transaction or event: (i) the number of shares and type of Common Stock (or the securities or property) which thereafter may be made the subject of awards; (ii) the number of shares and type of Common Stock (or other securities or property) subject to outstanding awards; (iii) the number of shares and type of Common Stock (or other securities or property) specified as the annual per-participant limitation under the Plan; (iv) the option price of each outstanding stock option; (v) the amount, if any, we pay for forfeited shares in accordance with the terms of the Plan; and (vi) the number of or exercise price of shares then subject to outstanding SARs previously granted and unexercised under the Plan, to the end that the same proportion of our issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock in each instance shall remain subject to exercise at the same aggregate exercise price; provided, however, that the number of shares of Common Stock (or other securities or property) subject to any award shall always be a whole number. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such adjustment shall be made or authorized to the extent that such adjustment would cause the Plan or any stock option to violate Section 422 or Section 409A of the Code. All such adjustments must be made in accordance with the rules of any securities exchange, stock market, or stock quotation system to which we are subject.

Amendment or Discontinuance of the Plan. The Board may, at any time and from time to time, without the consent of participants, alter, amend, revise, suspend, or discontinue the Plan in whole or in part; provided, however, that (i) no amendment that requires stockholder approval in order for the Plan and any awards under the Plan to continue to comply with Sections 421 and 422 of the Code (including any successors to such sections or other applicable law) or any applicable requirements of any securities exchange or inter-dealer quotation system on which our stock is listed or traded, shall be effective unless such amendment is approved by the requisite vote of our stockholders entitled to vote on the amendment; and (ii) unless required by law, no action by the Board regarding amendment or discontinuance of the Plan may adversely affect any rights of any participants or obligations of the Company to any participants with respect to any outstanding awards under the Plan without the consent of the affected participant.

Federal Income Tax Consequences

The following is a brief summary of certain U.S. federal income tax consequences relating to the transactions described under the Plan as set forth below. This summary does not purport to address all aspects of U.S. federal income taxation and does not describe any potential state, local, or foreign tax consequences. This discussion is based upon provisions of the Code and the Treasury Regulations issued thereunder, and judicial and administrative interpretations under the Code and Treasury Regulations, all as in effect as of the date hereof, and all of which are subject to change (possibly on a retroactive basis) or different interpretation.

Law Affecting Deferred Compensation. In 2004, Section 409A was added to the Code to regulate all types of deferred compensation. If the requirements of Section 409A of the Code are not satisfied, deferred compensation and earnings thereon will be subject to tax as it vests, plus an interest charge at the then current underpayment rate plus 1% and a 20% penalty tax. Certain performance awards, stock options, SARs, restricted stock units, and certain types of restricted stock are subject to Section 409A of the Code.

Incentive Stock Options. A participant will not recognize income at the time an ISO is granted. When a participant exercises an ISO, a participant also generally will not be required to recognize income (either as ordinary income or capital gain). However, to the extent that the fair market value (determined as of the date of grant) of the shares with respect to which the participant’s ISOs are exercisable for the first time during any year exceeds $100,000, the ISOs for the shares over $100,000 will be treated as nonqualified stock options, and not ISOs, for federal tax purposes, and the participant will recognize income as if the ISOs were nonqualified stock options (as described in more detail below). In addition to the foregoing, if the fair market value of the shares received upon exercise of an ISO exceeds the option price, then the excess may be deemed a tax preference adjustment for purposes of the federal alternative minimum tax calculation. The federal alternative minimum tax may produce significant tax repercussions depending upon the participant’s particular tax status.

The tax treatment of any shares acquired upon exercise of an ISO will depend upon whether the participant disposes of his or her shares prior to the later of: (i) two years after the date the ISO was granted or (ii) one year after the shares were transferred to the participant (referred to as, the “Holding Period”). If a participant disposes of shares acquired upon exercise of an ISO after the expiration of the Holding Period, any amount received in excess of the participant’s tax basis for such shares will be treated as a short-term or long-term capital gain, depending upon how long the participant has held the shares. If the amount received is less than the participant’s tax basis for such shares, the loss will be treated as a short-term or long-term capital loss, depending upon how long the participant has held the shares. If the participant disposes of shares acquired upon exercise of an ISO prior to the expiration of the Holding Period, the disposition will be considered a “disqualifying disposition.” If the amount received for the shares is greater than the fair market value of the shares on the exercise date, then the difference between the ISO’s option price and the fair market value of the shares at the time of exercise will be treated as ordinary income for the tax year in which the disqualifying disposition occurs. The participant’s basis in the shares will be increased by an amount equal to the amount treated as ordinary income due to such disqualifying disposition. In addition, the amount received in such disqualifying disposition over the participant’s increased basis in the shares will be treated as capital gain. However, if the price received for shares acquired upon exercise of an ISO is less than the fair market value of the shares on the exercise date and the disposition is a transaction in which the participant sustains a loss which otherwise would be recognizable under the Code, then the amount of ordinary income that the participant will recognize is the excess, if any, of the amount realized on the disqualifying disposition over the basis of the shares.

Nonqualified Stock Options. A participant generally will not recognize income at the time a nonqualified stock option is granted. When a participant exercises a nonqualified stock option, the difference between the option price and any higher market value of the shares of Common Stock on the date of exercise will be treated as compensation taxable as ordinary income to the participant. The participant’s tax basis for the shares acquired under a nonqualified stock option will be equal to the option price paid for such shares, plus any amounts included in the participant’s income as compensation. When a participant disposes of shares acquired upon exercise of a nonqualified stock option, any amount received in excess of the participant’s tax basis for such shares will be treated as short-term or long-term capital gain, depending upon how long the participant has held the shares. If the amount received is less than the participant’s tax basis for such shares, the loss will be treated as a short-term or long-term capital loss, depending upon how long the participant has held the shares.

Special Rule if Option Price is Paid for in Shares. If a participant pays the option price of a nonqualified stock option with previously-owned shares of our Common Stock and the transaction is not a disqualifying disposition of shares previously acquired under an ISO, the shares received equal to the number of shares surrendered are treated as having been received in a tax-free exchange. The participant’s tax basis and holding period for these shares received will be equal to the participant’s tax basis and holding period for the shares surrendered. The shares received in excess of the number of shares surrendered will be treated as compensation taxable as ordinary income to the participant to the extent of their fair market value. The participant’s tax basis in these shares will be equal to their fair market value on the date of exercise, and the participant’s holding period for such shares will begin on the date of exercise.

If the use of previously acquired shares to pay the option price of a nonqualified stock option constitutes a disqualifying disposition of shares previously acquired under an ISO, the participant will have ordinary income as a result of the disqualifying disposition in an amount equal to the excess of the fair market value of the shares surrendered, determined at the time such shares were originally acquired on exercise of the ISO, over the aggregate option price paid for such shares. As discussed above, a disqualifying disposition of shares previously acquired under an ISO occurs when the participant disposes of such shares before the end of the Holding Period. The other tax results from paying the option price with previously-owned shares are as described above, except that the participant’s tax basis in the shares that are treated as having been received in a tax-free exchange will be increased by the amount of ordinary income recognized by the participant as a result of the disqualifying disposition.

Restricted Stock. A participant who receives restricted stock generally will recognize as ordinary income the excess, if any, of the fair market value of the shares granted as restricted stock at such time as the shares are no longer subject to forfeiture or restrictions, over the amount paid, if any, by the participant for such shares. However, a participant who receives restricted stock may make an election under Section 83(b) of the Code within 30 days of the date of transfer of the restricted shares to recognize ordinary income on the date of transfer of the restricted shares equal to the excess of the fair market value of such shares (determined without regard to the restrictions on such shares) over the purchase price, if any, paid for such shares. If a participant does not make an election under Section 83(b) of the Code, then the participant will recognize as ordinary income any dividends received with respect to such shares. At the time of sale of such shares, any gain or loss realized by the participant will be treated as either short-term or long-term capital gain (or loss) depending upon how long the participant has held the shares. For purposes of determining any gain or loss realized, the participant’s tax basis will be the amount previously taxable as ordinary income, plus the purchase price paid by the participant, if any, for such shares.

Stock Appreciation Rights. Generally, a participant who receives a stand-alone SAR will not recognize taxable income at the time the stand-alone SAR is granted, provided that the SAR is exempt from or complies with Section 409A of the Code. If an employee receives the appreciation inherent in the SARs in cash, the cash will be taxed as ordinary income to the recipient at the time it is received. If a recipient receives the appreciation inherent in the SARs in stock, the spread between the then current market value and the grant price, if any, will be taxed as ordinary income to the employee at the time it is received.

Other Awards. In the case of an award of restricted stock units, performance awards, dividend equivalent rights, or other stock or cash awards, the recipient will generally recognize ordinary income in an amount equal to any cash received and the fair market value of any shares received on the date of payment or delivery, provided that the award is exempt from or complies with Section 409A of the Code.

Federal Tax Withholding. Any ordinary income realized by a participant upon the granting, vesting, exercise or conversion of an award under the Plan, as applicable, is subject to withholding of U.S. federal, state, and local income tax and to withholding of the participant’s share of tax under the Federal Insurance Contribution Act and the Federal Unemployment Tax Act. To satisfy our federal income tax withholding requirements, we will have the right to require, as a condition to delivery of any certificate for shares of Common Stock or the registration of the shares in the participant’s name, that the participant remit to us an amount sufficient to satisfy the withholding requirements. Alternatively, we may withhold a portion of the shares (valued at fair market value) that otherwise would be issued to the participant to satisfy all or part of the withholding tax obligations or may, if we consent, accept delivery of shares (that the participant has not acquired from us within six months prior to the date of exercise) with an aggregate fair market value that equals or exceeds the required tax withholding payment. Withholding does not represent an increase in the participant’s total income tax obligation, since it is fully credited toward his or her tax liability for the year. Additionally, withholding does not affect the participant’s tax basis in the shares. Compensation income realized and tax withheld will be reflected on Forms W-2 supplied by the Company to employees no later than January 31 of the succeeding year. Deferred compensation that is subject to Section 409A of the Code will be subject to certain federal income tax withholding and reporting requirements.

Tax Consequences to Us. To the extent that a participant recognizes ordinary income in the circumstances described above, we will be entitled to a corresponding deduction provided that, among other things, the income meets the test of reasonableness, is an ordinary and necessary business expense, is not an “excess parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code, and is not disallowed by the $1,000,000 limitation on certain executive compensation under Section 162(m) of the Code.

Million Dollar Deduction Limit and Other Tax Matters. We may not deduct compensation of more than $1,000,000 that is paid to “covered employees” (as defined in Section 162(m) of the Code), which include (i) an individual (or, in certain circumstances, his or her beneficiaries) who, at any time during the taxable year, is either our principal executive officer or principal financial officer; (ii) an individual who is among our three highest compensated officers for the taxable year (other than an individual who was either our principal executive officer or principal financial officer at any time during that taxable year); or (iii) anyone who was a covered employee for purposes of Section 162(m) of the Code for any tax year beginning on or after January 1, 2017. This limitation on deductions (x) only applies to compensation paid by a publicly-traded corporation (and not compensation paid by non-corporate entities) and (z) may not apply to certain types of compensation, such as qualified performance-based compensation that is payable pursuant to a written, binding contract that was in effect as of November 2, 2017, so long as the contract is not materially modified after that date.

If an individual’s rights under the Plan are accelerated as a result of a change in control and the individual is a “disqualified individual” under Section 280G of the Code, the value of any such accelerated rights received by such individual may be included in determining whether or not such individual has received an “excess parachute payment” under Section 280G of the Code, which could result in (i) the imposition of a 20% federal excise tax (in addition to federal income and employment taxes) payable by the individual on the value of such accelerated rights, and (ii) the loss by us of a compensation deduction.

Interest of Certain Persons

All members of the Board and all of our executive officers are eligible for awards under the Plan and, thus, have a personal interest in the approval of the Plan.

Plan Amendment Benefits

With respect to the increased number of shares reserved under the Plan pursuant to the Incentive Plan Amendment, we cannot currently determine the benefits or number of shares subject to awards that may be granted in the future to eligible participants under the Plan because the grant of awards and terms of such awards are to be determined in the sole discretion of the Committee.

The market value of our Common Stock on the Record Date was $2.67 per share, based on the closing price of our Common Stock on the Record Date.

Vote Required and Board’s Recommendation

The approval of the Incentive Plan Amendment Proposal requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the votes cast by the stockholders present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on the Incentive Plan Amendment Proposal, voting affirmatively or negatively (excluding abstentions and broker non-votes). “ABSTAIN” votes will have no effect on the results for the Incentive Plan Amendment Proposal. Because the Incentive Plan Amendment Proposal is not considered a routine matter, your bank, broker, trustee or other nominee, as the case may be, will not be able to vote your shares without your instruction with respect to the Incentive Plan Amendment Proposal. As a result, the failure to instruct your bank, broker, trustee or other nominee as to how to vote on the Incentive Plan Amendment Proposal will result in a broker non-vote, which will have no effect on the results of this vote.

THE BOARD RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE “FOR” THE INCENTIVE PLAN AMENDMENT PROPOSAL, AND PROXIES SOLICITED BY THE BOARD WILL BE VOTED IN FAVOR OF THE PROPOSAL UNLESS A STOCKHOLDER INDICATES OTHERWISE ON THE PROXY.

PROPOSAL NO. 5 - THE SAY ON PAY PROPOSAL

We are seeking your advisory vote as required by Section 14A of the Exchange Act, on the approval of the compensation of our named executive officers as disclosed pursuant to the compensation disclosure rules of the SEC in the compensation tables and the related material disclosed in this Proxy Statement. Because your vote is advisory, it will not be binding on the Compensation and Human Resources Committee of the Board (the “Compensation and Human Resources Committee”) or our Board. However, the Compensation and Human Resources Committee and the Board will review the voting results and take them into consideration when making future decisions regarding executive compensation. We have determined to hold an advisory vote to approve the compensation of our named executive officers every three years and the next such advisory vote will occur at the 2029 annual meeting of stockholders, subject to the voting results of the Say on Frequency Proposal as set forth in this Proxy Statement and our Board’s final determination as related to the frequency of holding future advisory votes on executive compensation.

Our compensation philosophy is designed to provide the compensation and incentives needed to motivate and reward fairly those individuals who perform over time at or above the levels that we expect and to attract, as needed, and retain individuals with the skills necessary to achieve our objectives and who are crucial to our long-term success. Our compensation program is also designed to reinforce a sense of ownership and to link compensation to our performance as well as the performance of each of our named executive officers.

Our compensation program consists of these general elements:

In determining the total amount and mixture of the compensation for each of our named executive officers, the Compensation and Human Resources Committee subjectively considers the overall value to the Company of each named executive officer in light of numerous factors, including, but not limited to, the following:

In accordance with the rules of the SEC, the following resolution, commonly known as a “say on pay” vote, is being submitted for a stockholder vote at the Annual Meeting:

“RESOLVED, that the compensation paid to the named executive officers of Fabric.AI, Inc., as disclosed pursuant to the compensation disclosure rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission in the compensation tables and the related material disclosed in the proxy statement for the meeting, is hereby approved.”

Vote Required and Board’s Recommendation

As an advisory vote, the result of this proposal is non-binding. Although the vote is non-binding, our Board and the Compensation and Human Resources Committee of the Board value the opinions of our stockholders in this matter and, to the extent there is any significant vote in favor of one time period over another, will consider the outcome of this vote when making future decisions regarding the compensation of our named executive officers.

The approval of the Say on Pay Proposal requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the votes cast by the stockholders present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on the Say on Pay Proposal, voting affirmatively or negatively (excluding abstentions and broker non-votes). “ABSTAIN” votes will have no effect on the results for the Say on Pay Proposal. Because the Say on Pay Proposal is not considered a routine matter, your bank, broker, trustee or other nominee, as the case may be, will not be able to vote your shares without your instruction with respect to the Say on Pay Proposal. As a result, the failure to instruct your bank, broker, trustee or other nominee as to how to vote on the Say on Pay Proposal will result in a broker non-vote, which will have no effect on the results of this vote.

THE BOARD RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE “FOR” THE APPROVAL, ON AN ADVISORY BASIS, OF THE COMPENSATION PAID TO OUR NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS, AND PROXIES SOLICITED BY THE BOARD WILL BE VOTED IN FAVOR OF THE PROPOSAL UNLESS A STOCKHOLDER INDICATES OTHERWISE ON THE PROXY.

PROPOSAL NO. 6 - THE SAY ON FREQUENCY PROPOSAL

As required by the SEC’s rules, we are including this proposal to give our stockholders the opportunity to inform us as to how often they wish us to include a say on pay proposal in our proxy statements.

We are presenting the following proposal, which gives you, as a stockholder, the opportunity to inform us as to whether you wish us to hold an advisory (non-binding) vote on executive compensation once every (1) one year, (2) two years, or (3) three years, or you may abstain from voting on the proposal set forth in the following resolution.

“RESOLVED, that the stockholders determine, on an advisory basis, whether the preferred frequency of an advisory vote on the executive compensation of the Company’s named executive officers as set forth in the Company’s proxy statement for the 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders should be every year, every two years, or every three years.”

The Board recommends that you vote for every three (3) years as the desired frequency for us to hold a non-binding, advisory vote of the stockholders on executive compensation. We believe this frequency is appropriate for the reasons set forth below:

Vote Required and Board’s Recommendation

The option among one year, two years, or three years that receives the highest number of votes cast at the Annual Meeting by stockholders entitled to vote on the Say on Frequency Proposal will be deemed to be the frequency preferred by our stockholders. “ABSTAIN” votes will have no effect on the results for the Say on Frequency Proposal.. Because the Say on Frequency Proposal is not considered a routine matter, your bank, broker, trustee or other nominee, as the case may be, will not be able to vote your shares without your instruction with respect to the Say on Frequency Proposal. As a result, the failure to instruct your bank, broker, trustee or other nominee as to how to vote on the Say on Frequency Proposal will result in a broker non-vote, which will have no effect on the results of this vote.

While our Board believes that its recommendation is appropriate at this time, the stockholders are not voting to approve or disapprove that recommendation, but are instead asked to indicate their preference, on an advisory basis, as to whether non-binding future stockholder advisory votes on the compensation of our named executive officers should be held every year, two years, or three years.

As an advisory vote, the result of this proposal is non-binding. Although the vote is non-binding, our Board and the Compensation and Human Resources Committee of the Board value the opinions of our stockholders in this matter and, to the extent there is any significant vote in favor of one time period over another, will consider the outcome of this vote when making future decisions regarding the frequency of holding future stockholder advisory votes on the compensation of our named executive officers.

This vote may not be construed as overruling a decision by the Board or its committees, creating or implying any change to the fiduciary duties of the Board or its committees or any additional fiduciary duty by the Board or its committees or restricting or limiting the ability of stockholders to make proposals for inclusion in proxy materials related to executive compensation. Notwithstanding the Board’s recommendation and the outcome of the vote on this matter, the Board may, in the future, decide to conduct advisory votes on a more or less frequent basis and may vary its practice based on factors such as discussions with stockholders and the adoption of material changes to compensation programs.

THE BOARD RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE “EVERY THREE YEARS” FOR THE APPROVAL, ON AN ADVISORY BASIS, OF THE FREQUENCY OF FUTURE ADVISORY VOTES ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION PAID TO OUR NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS, AND PROXIES SOLICITED BY THE BOARD WILL BE VOTED IN THAT MANNER UNLESS A STOCKHOLDER INDICATES OTHERWISE ON THE PROXY.

PROPOSAL NO. 7 - THE ADJOURNMENT PROPOSAL

Background of and Rationale for the Adjournment Proposal

The Board believes that if the number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock outstanding and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting and voting in favor of any one or more of the proposals presented at the Annual Meeting is insufficient to approve such proposals, it is in the best interests of the stockholders to enable the Board to continue to seek to obtain a sufficient number of additional votes to approve such proposals.

In the Adjournment Proposal, we are asking stockholders to authorize the holder of any proxy solicited by the Board to vote in favor of adjourning or postponing the Annual Meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof. If our stockholders approve this proposal, we could adjourn or postpone the Annual Meeting, and any adjourned session of the Annual Meeting, to use the additional time to solicit additional proxies in favor of any one or more of the proposals presented at the Annual Meeting.

Additionally, approval of the Adjournment Proposal could mean that, in the event we receive proxies indicating that we will not obtain approval for one or more of the proposals presented at the Annual Meeting, we could adjourn or postpone the Annual Meeting without a vote on such proposals and use the additional time to solicit the holders of those shares to change their vote in favor of the such proposals.

Required Vote

The affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast by the stockholders present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote, voting affirmatively or negatively (excluding abstentions and broker non-votes) is required to approve the Adjournment Proposal. “ABSTAIN” votes will have no effect on the outcome of the Adjournment Proposal. Because the Adjournment Proposal is considered a routine matter, your bank, broker, trustee or other nominee, as the case may be, may vote your shares without your instruction with respect to the Adjournment Proposal unless you instruct them otherwise. Failure by a bank, broker, trustee or other nominee to exercise this authority, will have no effect on the results of this vote.

THE BOARD RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE “FOR” THE ADJOURNMENT PROPOSAL, AND PROXIES SOLICITED BY THE BOARD WILL BE VOTED IN FAVOR THEREOF UNLESS A STOCKHOLDER HAS INDICATED OTHERWISE ON THE PROXY.

OTHER BUSINESS

The Board knows of no other business to be brought before the Annual Meeting. If, however, any other business should properly come before the Annual Meeting, the persons named in the accompanying proxy will vote the proxy in accordance with applicable law and as they may deem appropriate in their discretion, unless directed by the proxy to do otherwise.

SUBMISSION OF FUTURE STOCKHOLDER PROPOSALS

Pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act (“Rule 14a-8”), a stockholder who intends to present a proposal at our 2027 annual meeting of stockholders and who wishes the proposal to be included in the proxy statement for the 2027 annual meeting must submit the proposal to us in writing to the attention of the Secretary at Fabric.AI, Inc., 1185 Avenue of the Americas, New York, New York 10036. The proposal must be received not less than 120 calendar days before the anniversary of the date this proxy statement is released to stockholders in connection with the 2026 annual meeting of stockholders, or [    ], 2026. However, pursuant to Rule 14a-8, if the date of the 2027 annual meeting has been changed by more than 30 days from the date of the 2026 annual meeting, or is held on a date that is before May 13, 2027, or after July 19, 2027, then a stockholder proposal submitted for inclusion in our proxy statement for the 2027 annual meeting must be received by us a reasonable time before we begin to print and mail our proxy statement for the 2027 annual meeting.
