GENERAL INFORMATION

DeFi Development Corp., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), is sending you this Notice and Information Statement to notify you of an action taken by the holders of approximately 81.79% of the outstanding voting power of the Company (the “Majority Stockholders”) as of the close of business on May 26, 2026 (the “Record Date”), in lieu of a special meeting of stockholders. References in this Information Statement to the “Company,” “we,” “our,” and “us” are to DeFi Development Corp, and, to the extent applicable, its subsidiaries.

On May 21, 2026, our Board of Directors (“Board”), upon the recommendation of a special committee thereof, unanimously approved the reincorporation of the Company from the State of Delaware to the State of Nevada by conversion (the “Nevada Reincorporation”), pursuant to which the Company would be converted from a corporation organized under the laws of the State of Delaware to a corporation organized under the laws of the State of Nevada (the “Nevada Corporation”), and recommended the Nevada Reincorporation for approval by the Company’s stockholders. On May 26, 2026, the Majority Stockholders delivered to the Company a written consent approving the Nevada Reincorporation, including the resolutions of our Board approving the Nevada Reincorporation (the “Nevada Reincorporation Resolutions”), included as Appendix A to this Information Statement.

As of the close of business on the Record Date, the Majority Stockholders together held 6,223,516 shares of common stock, par value $0.00001 per share (the “common stock”), and 10,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock, par value $0.00001 per share (the “Series A Preferred Stock”), collectively representing approximately 81.79% of the voting power of all outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company entitled to vote.

The entire cost of furnishing this Information Statement will be borne by the Company. We will request brokerage houses, nominees, custodians, fiduciaries and other like parties to forward the Information Statement to beneficial owners of the outstanding common stock, of the Company held of record by them. The Company will reimburse these brokers, nominees, custodians, and fiduciaries for the reasonable out-of-pocket expenses they incur in connection with the forwarding of the Information Statement.

Copies of this Information Statement are being mailed on or about [ ], 2026, to the stockholders of record of the outstanding common stock as of the close of business on May 26, 2026, which we refer to as the “Record Date.”

BACKGROUND OF THE NEVADA REINCORPORATION

As part of its ongoing oversight responsibilities, our Board, working alongside management, regularly evaluates corporate governance developments relevant to the Company, including matters related to the jurisdiction in which the Company is incorporated. While Delaware has long served as the preferred domicile for a substantial majority of publicly traded U.S. companies owing to its well-established Court of Chancery, a judiciary with deep expertise in business disputes and an extensive body of precedent that has traditionally offered predictability in governance and transactional questions, in recent years, an increasing number of prominent public companies have reincorporated

to alternative jurisdictions, particularly Nevada and Texas, as a result of, among other things, certain significant rulings from the Delaware Court of Chancery which have caused some companies to question such predictability. Management has actively monitored these trends, including legislative revisions to the Delaware General Corporation Law (“DGCL”) enacted in response to those rulings, the accelerating pace of reincorporations, and the statutory and regulatory initiatives undertaken by other states, including Nevada to position themselves as attractive alternatives for corporate formation.

On April 29, 2026, the Board formed a special committee composed exclusively of disinterested and independent directors (the “Special Committee”) to undertake a comprehensive review of the relative advantages and disadvantages, as well as the strategic implications, of remaining a Delaware corporation as compared to reincorporating to an alternative jurisdiction, including Nevada.

The Special Committee studied and evaluated, and discussed with both management and outside advisors to the Company, the relevant information and considerations with respect to a potential reincorporation of the Company. Following its evaluation, the Special Committee unanimously adopted a resolution recommending the Board approve and adopt, and recommend to stockholders for approval and adoption, the Nevada Reincorporation, the plan of conversion, included as Appendix B to this Information Statement (the “Plan of Conversion”), and the Nevada Reincorporation Resolutions.

On May 21, 2026, after discussing and considering the recommendation of the Special Committee, our Board unanimously approved the Nevada Reincorporation, for the reasons described in this Information Statement, and recommended that our stockholders approve the Nevada Reincorporation (including the Plan of Conversion, the Nevada Charter (as defined below) and the Nevada Bylaws (as defined below)) and adopt the Nevada Reincorporation Resolutions. On May 26, 2026, the Majority Stockholders approved the Nevada Reincorporation (including the Plan of Conversion, Nevada Charter and Nevada Bylaws) and adopted the Nevada Reincorporation Resolutions by written consent in lieu of a meeting.

VOTING AND VOTE REQUIRED

Pursuant to Section 266 of the DGCL, the vote required to approve the Nevada Reincorporation is the affirmative vote of a majority of the voting power of the outstanding shares of the capital stock of the Company entitled to vote thereon.

Under Section 228(a) of the DGCL and the Company’s Amended and Restated Bylaws (the “Delaware Bylaws”), any action that can be taken at an annual or special meeting of stockholders may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote, if the holders of outstanding stock having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote thereon were present and voted consent to such action in writing.

VOTE OBTAINED

As of the Record Date, the Company had 30,118,205 shares of common stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote and 10,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote. Each share of common stock is entitled to one vote and each share of Series A Preferred Stock is entitled to 10,000 votes per share on all matters entitled to be voted upon by the common stock unless otherwise prohibited by law.

The Majority Stockholders collectively held approximately 6,223,516 shares of common stock and 10,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock as of the Record Date, representing approximately 81.79% of the voting power of all outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company. See “Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management” for the amount and nature of the beneficial ownership of the shares of common stock and Series A Preferred Stock held by the Majority Stockholders. Accordingly, the written consent executed by the Majority Stockholders is sufficient to approve the Nevada Reincorporation and no further stockholder action is required to approve the corporate actions described herein.

The consent that we have obtained from the Majority Stockholders constitutes the only stockholder approval required under the DGCL and the Delaware Bylaws, to approve the Nevada Reincorporation. Our Board is not soliciting your vote or your proxy in connection with the Nevada Reincorporation. All necessary corporate approvals relating

to the Nevada Reincorporation have been obtained and this Information Statement is being furnished to stockholders solely for purposes of informing the stockholders of the Nevada Reincorporation in the manner required under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).

In accordance with Rule 14c-2 under the Exchange Act, we plan to effectuate the Nevada Reincorporation no earlier than twenty (20) calendar days after the commencement of mailing of this Information Statement to our stockholders. The Information Statement is first being mailed to stockholders on or about [ ], 2026. The Nevada Reincorporation is expected to be effected on or around [ ], 2026.

NOTICE PURSUANT TO SECTION 228(E) OF THE DGCL

Section 228(e) of the DGCL requires that prompt notice of any corporate action taken by less than unanimous written consent of stockholders be provided to all stockholders as of the record date for the action by consent who did not consent and who would have otherwise been entitled to notice of the meeting if the action had been taken at a meeting and the record date for the notice of the meeting were the record date for the action by consent. This Information Statement serves as the notice required by Section 228(e) of the DGCL.

NO APPRAISAL RIGHTS

No appraisal or dissenters’ rights are available to our stockholders under Delaware law, our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended (the “Delaware Charter”), or the Delaware Bylaws with respect to the Nevada Reincorporation.

Principal Terms of the Nevada Reincorporation

Our Board, upon the recommendation of the Special Committee, unanimously approved and recommended that our stockholders approve the Nevada Reincorporation and adopt the Nevada Reincorporation Resolutions.

The Nevada Reincorporation will be effected through a conversion pursuant to Section 266 of the DGCL, and Section 92A.195 of the Nevada Revised Statutes (as amended, “NRS”), as set forth in the Plan of Conversion.

Through the adoption of the Plan of Conversion, upon the effective time of the Nevada Reincorporation (the “Effective Time”):

• The Company will continue in existence as a Nevada corporation and will continue to operate our business under its current name, “DeFi Development Corp.” The corporate existence of DeFi Development Corp. will not cease at any time.

• The internal affairs of the Company will cease to be governed by Delaware law and will instead be subject to Nevada law. See “What Changes After Nevada Reincorporation? — Certain Differences in Stockholder Rights under Delaware and Nevada Corporate Law” below.

• The Company will cease to be governed by the Delaware Charter (including the Certificate of Designation of Series A Preferred Stock), which is included as Appendix C to this Information Statement, and the Delaware Bylaws, which are included as Appendix D to this Information Statement, and will instead be subject to the provisions of the Nevada articles of incorporation (including the Certificate of Designation of Series A Preferred Stock) (collectively, the “Nevada Charter”) and the Nevada bylaws (the “Nevada Bylaws”), which are included as Appendix E and Appendix F, respectively, to this Information Statement. See “What Changes After Nevada Reincorporation? — Certain Differences Between the Delaware Charter and Bylaws and Nevada Charter and Bylaws” below.

• The Nevada Reincorporation will not result in any change in headquarters, business, jobs, management, properties, location of any of our offices or facilities, number of employees, obligations, assets, liabilities or net worth (other than as a result of the transaction costs related to the Nevada Reincorporation).

• Each outstanding share of our common stock will be automatically converted into one outstanding share of common stock, par value $0.00001 per share, of the Nevada Corporation (“Nevada common stock”) pursuant to the Plan of Conversion.

• Each outstanding share of our Series A Preferred Stock will be automatically converted into one outstanding share of Series A Preferred Stock, par value $0.00001 per share, of the Nevada Corporation pursuant to the Plan of Conversion.

• Stockholders will not need to exchange their existing book entry shares for new book entry shares.

• Each outstanding stock option, restricted share, restricted stock unit, warrant, convertible note, purchase right, or other right to acquire shares of our common stock, as applicable, will continue in existence and automatically become an option, restricted share, restricted stock unit, warrant, convertible note, purchase right, or other right, as applicable, to acquire an equal number of shares of Nevada common stock under the same terms and conditions.

• Our common stock will continue to be traded on the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC under the symbol “DFDV”. We do not expect any interruption in the trading of our common stock as a result of the Nevada Reincorporation.

In connection with the Nevada Reincorporation, the Company intends to make filings with the Nevada Secretary of State and the Secretary of State of Delaware and does not anticipate making any other filings to effect the Nevada Reincorporation. Nonetheless, we may face legal challenges to the Nevada Reincorporation, including, among others, stockholder challenges under Delaware law, seeking to delay or prevent the Nevada Reincorporation.

The Nevada Reincorporation may be delayed by our Board, or the Plan of Conversion may be terminated and abandoned by action of our Board, at any time prior to the Effective Time, if our Board determines for any reason that such delay or abandonment would be in the best interests of the Company and all of its stockholders.

Reasons for the Nevada Reincorporation

Our Board believes that the Nevada Reincorporation is in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders for several reasons. After carefully evaluating the legal frameworks of both Delaware and Nevada, our Board determined that Nevada’s statute-focused approach to corporate law creates a more stable and predictable environment for business decisions. Unlike in Delaware, where corporate law regarding fiduciary duties is significantly driven by case law developed by courts based upon broad, enabling principles, the NRS codifies the fiduciary duties of directors and officers, resulting in a legal framework that is less dependent upon the vagaries of judicial interpretation and therefore tends to be more stable and efficient for corporate decision-making. Our Board believes that stockholder value is enhanced when directors and officers can make decisions under a clear legal framework that protects good-faith, informed business judgments from unwarranted scrutiny, and that uncertainty about the applicable duties and standards of review can have a chilling effect on corporate actions that could otherwise benefit stockholders. Our Board also considered the increasingly active litigation environment in Delaware, where well-funded plaintiffs’ firms have brought a greater frequency of opportunistic claims against corporations and their directors and officers, creating unnecessary distraction and costs that are ultimately borne by stockholders through indemnification obligations and increased insurance premiums. Our Board believes the Nevada Reincorporation will provide greater protection from such claims, better allow our directors and officers to focus on the business, and may also help the Company attract and retain qualified management and directors by reducing the personal litigation risk they face. In addition, the Nevada Reincorporation will eliminate the Company’s obligation to pay the annual Delaware franchise tax, which is calculated based in part on the Company’s total authorized shares and capital structure. Following the Nevada Reincorporation, the Company’s ongoing state-level fees are expected to be limited to an annual state business license fee and a filing fee for the Company’s annual list of directors and officers, which together are expected to be substantially lower than the Company’s current Delaware franchise tax obligation, producing meaningful cost savings over the long term.

Certain Risks Associated with the Nevada Reincorporation

Although our Board believes that the Nevada Reincorporation is in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders, there can be no assurance that the Nevada Reincorporation will result in all or any of the benefits described in this Information Statement, including the benefits of or resulting from the application of Nevada law to the internal affairs of the Company.

For the Company’s comparison of stockholders’ rights and the material substantive provisions that apply to directors and executive officers under Delaware and Nevada law, see “What Changes After Nevada Reincorporation? — Certain Differences in Stockholder Rights under Delaware and Nevada Corporate Law” below.

Certain Differences Between Delaware and Nevada Corporate Law

Although our Board believes that the rights of stockholders under the DGCL and the NRS are similar in many respects, the DGCL and Delaware case law collectively are different in certain respects from the NRS and existing Nevada case law in ways that may affect the rights of our stockholders. See the Company’s summary of certain differences in the section titled “What Changes After Nevada Reincorporation? — Certain Differences in Stockholder Rights under Delaware and Nevada Corporate Law” below. For instance, as further explained in the Company’s summary below, under the NRS, a stockholder may inspect a Nevada corporation’s articles of incorporation, bylaws and stock ledger, subject to certain limitations, if such stockholder holds of record at least 5% of the outstanding shares of stock of the Nevada corporation or has been a record holder of shares for at least six months. In addition, the NRS provides that a stockholder may inspect the books of account and financial statements of a Nevada corporation if such stockholder holds at least 15% of the outstanding shares of stock of the Nevada corporation; however, these additional inspection rights are generally not available for stockholders of publicly traded companies. The DGCL, by comparison, does not require that a stockholder hold a certain number of shares or hold such shares for a stated period of time prior to exercising their books and records inspection rights. Thus, it is possible that some of our stockholders entitled to make a books and records demand today (as stockholders in a Delaware corporation) will not be able to make a similar demand following the Nevada Reincorporation.

In addition, the NRS expressly permits directors and officers to consider all relevant facts, circumstances, contingencies or constituencies, including approving or taking an action that factors in the interests of stakeholders other than the corporation’s stockholders, such as employees, suppliers and the community and the long-term and short-term interests of the corporation. Under Delaware law, by comparison, there is no express statutory authority to consider such interests, and fiduciary duties in most circumstances require directors to seek to maximize the value of the corporation for the long-term benefit of the stockholders unless the corporation is specifically incorporated as a public benefit corporation. As a result, as a Nevada corporation, it is possible that our directors and officers may consider the interests of other constituencies in a manner different from what Delaware law may require.

Our Board has identified certain other areas where the corporate law in Nevada differs in some respect from that of Delaware. These are generally procedural in nature.

A potentially important area is related to antitakeover protections. Both Delaware and Nevada permit a range of antitakeover defenses, including poison pills and classified boards. Both have prohibitions on business combinations with “interested stockholders” owning certain proportions of the outstanding shares, though they apply at different ownership thresholds and have differing moratorium periods (15% of the voting power of the outstanding voting stock for three years in Delaware and 10% of the voting or investment power of the outstanding voting stock for up to four years in Nevada), and in Nevada a corporation is subject to these prohibitions only if it is a “resident domestic corporation”, which is a Nevada corporation that has 200 or more stockholders of record (as defined in NRS 78.427). At such time, if any, that the Company becomes a resident domestic corporation, the Company shall be subject to NRS 78.411 to 78.444, inclusive (collectively, the “Nevada Combinations Statutes”), which set forth various requirements related to a combination (as defined in NRS 78.416) of a resident domestic corporation with an interested stockholder (as defined in NRS 78.423). The Nevada Charter, the form of which was unanimously approved by our Board in the Nevada Reincorporation Resolutions, provides that the Company expressly elects not to be governed by the provisions of the Nevada Combinations Statutes. In addition to the restrictions on combinations with interested stockholders, Nevada law also protects a corporation and its stockholders from persons acquiring a “controlling interest” in a corporation. The provisions can be found in NRS 78.378 to 78.3793, inclusive (the “Control Share Statutes”). Delaware law does not have similar provisions. Pursuant to the Control Share Statutes, any person who acquires a controlling interest in a corporation may not exercise voting rights in any control shares unless such voting rights are conferred by a majority vote of the disinterested stockholders of the corporation at a meeting. A “controlling interest” means the ownership of outstanding voting shares sufficient to enable the acquiring person, individually or in association with others, to exercise voting power in excess of certain specified thresholds, and once an acquirer crosses one of the thresholds, shares that it acquired in the transaction taking it over the threshold and within the 90 days immediately preceding that date become “control shares” to which the voting restrictions apply. The Control Share Statutes do not apply to any acquisition of a controlling interest in a corporation if the articles of incorporation or bylaws in effect

on the 10th day following the acquisition so provide. And these statutes only apply to an “issuing corporation”, which means a Nevada corporation with 200 or more stockholders of record, at least 100 of whom have addresses in Nevada appearing on the corporation’s stock ledger at all times during the 90 days immediately preceding that date, and which does business in Nevada directly or through an affiliated corporation. In the Nevada Bylaws, the Company has opted out of these provisions.

Another potential area of difference involves cash-out merger transactions (i.e., when one company buys another company and pays the stockholders of the bought company in cash) and directors’ obligations: in such transactions, as in all transactions involving a change or potential change in control, the NRS allows directors to consider all relevant facts, circumstances, contingencies or constituencies, which may include the interests of stakeholders other than stockholders. Delaware law, at least in certain circumstances, requires directors to accept the highest price reasonably available, although in many circumstances they are allowed, as directors of a Nevada corporation would be, to “just say no” to a potential transaction and consider the long-term interests of the corporation and its stockholders.

Finally, there are various important common law doctrines under Delaware law that have not been adopted by Nevada courts or adopted in the Nevada statutes.

Transaction Costs and Litigation Risk

We have incurred and will incur certain costs in connection with the Nevada Reincorporation, including certain filing fees and legal and other transaction costs. We believe a majority of the costs related to the transaction have already been incurred or will be incurred in connection with the delivery of this Information Statement to stockholders regardless of whether the Nevada Reincorporation is ultimately completed. Many of the expenses that will be incurred and other potential transaction costs are difficult to accurately estimate at the present time, and additional unanticipated costs may be incurred in connection with the Nevada Reincorporation.

It is also possible that the Nevada Reincorporation, regardless of merit, results in litigation, with additional expense and distraction for the Company. Further, if a court determines that any such litigation has merit, we may be required to, among other things, pay substantial monetary damages or attorneys’ fees.

What Changes After Nevada Reincorporation?

The Nevada Reincorporation will effect a change in the legal domicile of the Company and other changes, the most significant of which are described below. Following the Nevada Reincorporation, we will be governed by the NRS instead of the DGCL, and we will be governed by the Nevada Charter and the Nevada Bylaws instead of the Delaware Charter and the Delaware Bylaws. Copies of the Delaware Charter and Delaware Bylaws are included as Appendix C and Appendix D, respectively, to this Information Statement, and copies of the Nevada Charter and Nevada Bylaws are included as Appendix E and Appendix F, respectively, to this Information Statement.

Certain Differences Between the Delaware Charter and Bylaws and the Nevada Charter and Bylaws

The Nevada Charter and Nevada Bylaws have been drafted with an intent to parallel the Delaware Charter and the Delaware Bylaws to the extent legally possible. However, there are differences between what your rights are under Delaware law and what they will be under Nevada law. In addition, there are differences between the Delaware Charter and the Delaware Bylaws and the Nevada Charter and the Nevada Bylaws as they will be in effect after the Nevada Reincorporation. The following discussion is a summary of certain differences between the Nevada Charter and the Delaware Charter and the Nevada Bylaws and the Delaware Bylaws. This summary does not cover all the differences between the Delaware Charter and the Delaware Bylaws and the Nevada Charter and the Nevada Bylaws. This summary is subject to the complete text of the relevant provisions of the Nevada Charter and the Nevada Bylaws and the Delaware Charter and the Delaware Bylaws. We encourage you to read those documents carefully.

Comparison of the Delaware Charter and Nevada Charter

Issue	Delaware Charter	Nevada Charter
Removal of Directors	The Delaware Charter provides that subject to any limitations imposed by applicable law, the Board or any director may be removed from office at any time, with or without cause, by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of all then-outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company entitled to vote generally at an election of directors.	The Nevada Charter provides that any director may only be removed by an affirmative vote of the holders of the minimum percentage of voting power of the issued and outstanding shares entitled to vote thereon then permitted under the NRS, which at this time is at least two-thirds of such voting power and which at no time will be less than a simple majority of the voting power.
Limitation of Liability for Directors and Officers	Under the Delaware Charter, the personal liability of the Company’s directors to the Company or its stockholders is eliminated, to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL; provided that such provision shall not eliminate or limit a director’s liability for: (i) any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to the Company; (ii) acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law; (iii) the unlawful payment of dividends or unlawful stock purchases or redemptions; or (iv) for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.	Under the Nevada Charter, the liability of both directors and officers of the Nevada Corporation is eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted by the NRS. Unlike the DGCL, the limitation on director and officer liability under the NRS does not treat as categorically excluded from its protections breaches of the duty of loyalty or transactions from which a director derives an improper personal benefit. In addition, under the NRS this limitation of liability extends to liabilities owed to creditors of the corporation.
Forum Adjudication for Disputes	Under the Delaware Charter, unless we consent in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, and subject to applicable jurisdictional requirements, the Court of Chancery in the State of Delaware will be the sole and exclusive forum for (i) any derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of the Company, (ii) any action asserting a claim of breach of fiduciary duty owed by any director, officer or other employee of the Company to the Company or the Company’s stockholders, (iii) any action asserting a claim against the Company, its directors, officer or employees arising pursuant to any provision of the DGCL, the Delaware Charter or the Delaware Bylaws or (iv) any action asserting a claim against the Company, its directors, officers or employees governed by the internal affairs doctrine or otherwise related to the Company’s internal affairs.	Under the Nevada Charter, unless we consent in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, and subject to applicable jurisdictional requirements, the Eighth Judicial District Court of the State of Nevada, in Clark County, Nevada (the “Eighth Judicial District Court”) (or, if the Eighth Judicial District Court lacks jurisdiction over such action or proceeding, then another court of the State of Nevada or, if no court of the State of Nevada has jurisdiction, then the United States District Court for the District of Nevada) will be the sole and exclusive forum for (i) any derivative action or proceeding brought in the name or right or on behalf of the Nevada Corporation, (ii) any action asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any current or former director, officer or controlling stockholder of the Nevada Corporation in such capacity, (iii) any internal action (as defined in NRS 78.046 or any successor statute), including any action asserting a claim arising pursuant to any provision of NRS Title 7, the Nevada Charter or the Nevada Bylaws, or (iv) any action asserting a claim governed by the internal affairs doctrine or to which the NRS confers jurisdiction on the district court of Nevada, except that foregoing sentence will not apply to claims arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), the Exchange Act or other federal securities laws for which there is exclusive federal or concurrent federal and state jurisdiction.

Issue	Delaware Charter	Nevada Charter
		The Nevada Charter also provides that, unless we consent in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the federal district courts of the United States of America will be the exclusive forum for the resolution of any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under the Securities Act.
Limited Waiver of Jury Trials	The Delaware Charter does not include a waiver of the right to jury trials. Were a shareholder to file suit in the Delaware Court of Chancery, there would be no right to a jury trial as the Court of Chancery, as a court of equity, does not conduct jury trials.	The Nevada Charter provides that, to the extent not inconsistent with any applicable U.S. federal laws, any and all “internal actions” (as defined in the NRS) must be tried in a court of competent jurisdiction before the presiding judge as the trier of fact and not before a jury. This provision will operate as a waiver of the right to trial by jury by each party to any such internal action.
Distributions to Stockholders	The DGCL provides that, unless further restricted in its certificate of incorporation, a corporation may declare and pay dividends out of either (i) surplus or (ii) if no surplus exists, out of net profits for the fiscal year in which the dividend is declared and/or the preceding fiscal year (provided that the amount of capital of the corporation is not less than the aggregate amount of the capital represented by the issued and outstanding stock of all classes having a preference upon the distribution of assets). The Delaware Charter does not contain any further restrictions.	The NRS provides that no distribution may be made if, after giving effect to such distribution, (i) the corporation would not be able to pay its debts as they become due in the usual course of business or (ii) except as otherwise specifically permitted by the articles of incorporation, the corporation’s total assets would be less than the sum of its total liabilities plus the amount that would be needed at the time of a dissolution to satisfy the preferential rights of preferred stockholders (the “Balance Sheet Test”). The Nevada Charter has affirmatively opted out of the Balance Sheet Test described above.

Comparison of the Delaware Bylaws and Nevada Bylaws

Issue		Delaware Bylaws		Nevada Bylaws
Notice of Stockholder Meetings		Under the Delaware Bylaws, a notice of a stockholders’ meeting must state: (i) the place, if any, date and hour of the meeting; (ii) the means of remote communications, if any, by which stockholders and proxyholders may be deemed to be present in person and vote at such meeting; and (iii) in the case of a special meeting, the purpose or purposes of the meeting.		Under the Nevada Bylaws, a notice of a stockholders’ meeting must state: (i) the physical location, if any, date and time of the meeting; (ii) the means of remote communications, if any, by which stockholders and proxyholders may be deemed to be present in person and vote at such meeting; and (iii) in the case of a special meeting, the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called. The NRS also provides that (a) if a proposed plan of merger, conversion or exchange is to be submitted to a vote at the meeting, the notice of the meeting must state that the purpose, or one of the purposes, of the meeting is to consider the plan of merger, conversion or exchange and must contain or be accompanied by a copy or summary of the plan, and (b) if a proposed action creating dissenter’s rights is to be submitted to a vote at the meeting, the notice of the meeting must state that the stockholders are or may be entitled to assert dissenter’s rights under NRS 92A.300 to 92A.500, inclusive, and be accompanied by a copy of those statutory provisions.

Quorum and Voting	Under the Delaware Bylaws, in all matters other than the election of directors, except as otherwise provided by statute, the Delaware Charter or the Delaware Bylaws, the affirmative vote of a majority of shares present in person, including by remote communication, if applicable, or represented by proxy at the meeting duly authorized at the meeting and entitled to vote generally on the subject matter shall be the act of the stockholders. This is the default voting standard under the DGCL.	Under the Nevada Bylaws, except as otherwise provided by the NRS, or by the Nevada Charter or the Nevada Bylaws, in all matters other than the election of directors, if a quorum is present, action by the stockholders entitled to vote on a matter is approved by and is the act of the stockholders if the number of votes cast in favor of the action exceeds the number of votes cast in opposition to the action, unless voting by classes or series is required for any action of the stockholders by the NRS, the Nevada Charter or the Nevada Bylaws, in which case the number of votes cast in favor of the action by the voting power of each such class or series must exceed the number of votes cast in opposition to the action by the voting power of each such class or series. This is the default voting standard under the NRS.
Adjournment and Notice of Adjourned Meetings	Under the DGCL and the Delaware Bylaws, if a meeting of stockholders is adjourned for more than 30 days, a notice of the adjourned meeting must be given to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at the meeting.	Under the NRS and the Nevada Bylaws, if a meeting of stockholders is adjourned for more than 60 days, a notice of the adjourned meeting must be given to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at the meeting.
Voting Rights (Proxies)	Under the DGCL and the Delaware Bylaws, no proxy authorized by a stockholder may be voted or acted upon after three years from its date of creation, unless the proxy provides for a longer period.	The NRS, and consistent therewith, the Nevada Bylaws provide that no proxy may be voted or acted upon after six months from its date of creation, unless the proxy provides for a longer period, which may not exceed seven years from the date of its creation.
Action Without Meeting	Under the DGCL and the Delaware Bylaws, the Company must give prompt notice of the taking of corporate action without a meeting by less than unanimous written consent to those stockholders who did not consent in writing.	Unlike the DGCL, the NRS does not impose notice requirements in connection with stockholder action by written consent. Accordingly, the Nevada Bylaws do not require that notice be delivered in connection with stockholder action by written consent.
Removal of Directors	The Delaware Bylaws provide that, subject to any limitations imposed by applicable law, the Board or any director may be removed at any time (i) with cause by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of all then-outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company entitled to vote generally at an election of directors or (ii) without cause by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of all then-outstanding shares of capital stock of the corporation, entitled to elect such director.	Under the NRS, a director may only be removed by the vote of stockholders representing not less than two-thirds of the voting power of the issued and outstanding stock entitled to vote. The Nevada Bylaws provide that the Board or any director may only be removed by an affirmative vote of the holders of the minimum percentage of voting power of the issued and outstanding shares entitled to vote thereon then permitted under the NRS, which at this time is at least two-thirds of such voting power and which at no time will be less than a simple majority of the voting power.
Board Committees	Under the DGCL and the Delaware Bylaws, no committee of our Board shall have the power or authority to: (i) approve or adopt, or recommend to our stockholders, any action or matter expressly required by the DGCL to be submitted to stockholders for approval or (ii) adopt, amend or repeal any bylaw of the Company.	The NRS, and therefore, the Nevada Bylaws, do not contain a similar limitation on the authority of board committees.

Issue	Delaware Bylaws	Nevada Bylaws
Officers	The officers of the Company will include, if and when designated by the Board, the President and the Secretary, all of whom shall be elected at the annual organizational meeting of the Board. The Board may assign such additional titles as it shall deem appropriate.	The officers of the Corporation shall include a President, Secretary and a Treasurer or the equivalent thereof, each of whom will be elected by the Board and who will hold office for such terms as shall be determined by our Board and until their successors are elected and qualified or until their earlier resignation or removal. The Company may have such other officers as our Board may deem desirable or appropriate.
Inapplicability of Controlling Interest Statutes	The Delaware Bylaws do not contain such a provision, and the DGCL does not contain provisions similar to the NRS relating to the acquisition of controlling interests.	The Nevada Bylaws provide that the provisions of the NRS relating to acquisitions of controlling interests in the Nevada Corporation do not apply to the Nevada Corporation or to any acquisition of shares of the Nevada Corporation’s capital stock. Please see the Company’s summary of the Nevada acquisition of controlling interest statutes in the section titled “Acquisition of Controlling Interests.”

Certain Differences in Stockholder Rights under Delaware and Nevada Corporate Law

The rights of our stockholders are currently governed by the DGCL, the Delaware Charter and the Delaware Bylaws. Following completion of the Nevada Reincorporation, the rights of our stockholders will be governed by the NRS, the Nevada Charter and the Nevada Bylaws.

The statutory corporate laws of Nevada, as governed by the NRS, are similar in many respects to those of Delaware, as governed by the DGCL. However, there are certain differences that may affect your rights as a stockholder, as well as the corporate governance of the Company. The following are brief summaries of material differences between the current rights of stockholders of the Company and the rights of stockholders of the Company following completion of the Nevada Reincorporation. The following discussion does not provide a complete description of the differences that may affect you. This summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the NRS and DGCL as well as the Delaware Charter and Delaware Bylaws and the Nevada Charter and Nevada Bylaws.

Increasing or Decreasing Authorized Capital Stock

The NRS allows the board of directors of a corporation, unless restricted by the articles of incorporation, to increase or decrease the number of authorized shares of a class or series of the corporation’s capital stock and correspondingly effect a forward or reverse split of the outstanding shares of such class or series (and change the par value thereof) without a vote of the stockholders, so long as the increase or decrease of the authorized shares and the issued and outstanding shares of such class or series is proportionate and the action taken does not adversely change or alter any right or preference of any other class or series of outstanding shares (unless the articles of incorporation specifically deny the right of holders of shares whose rights or preferences are adversely affected to vote on such increase or decrease) and does not include any provision or provisions pursuant to which only money will be paid or scrip issued to stockholders who collectively hold 10% or more of the outstanding shares of the affected class and series, and who would otherwise be entitled to receive fractions of shares in exchange for the cancellation of all of their outstanding shares.

Under the DGCL, the board of directors of a corporation cannot increase or decrease the amount of authorized capital stock without stockholder approval. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the corporation only has one class of stock outstanding and such class is not divided into series, then unless otherwise expressly required by the certificate of incorporation, stockholder approval is not required to adopt an amendment to the certificate of incorporation that effects a forward stock split and, in connection therewith, such amendment may also increase the number of authorized shares up to an amount proportionate to the subdivision without stockholder approval.

Cumulative Voting

Cumulative voting for directors entitles each stockholder to cast a number of votes that is equal to the number of voting shares held by such stockholder multiplied by the number of directors to be elected and to cast all such votes for one nominee or distribute such votes among up to as many candidates as there are positions to be filled. Cumulative voting may enable a minority stockholder or group of stockholders to elect at least one representative to the board of directors where such stockholders would not be able to elect any directors without cumulative voting.

Although the DGCL does not generally grant stockholders cumulative voting rights, a Delaware corporation may provide in its certificate of incorporation for cumulative voting in the election of directors.

The NRS also does not generally grant stockholders cumulative voting rights but permits any Nevada corporation to provide in its articles of incorporation the right to cumulative voting in the election of directors as long as certain procedures are followed.

The Delaware Charter does not provide for cumulative voting in the election of directors. Similarly, the Nevada Charter does not provide for cumulative voting.

Director Vacancies

Under both the DGCL and the NRS, subject to the certificate or articles of incorporation and bylaws, vacancies on the board of directors, including those resulting from any increase in the authorized number of directors, may be filled by a majority of the remaining directors then in office, even if less than a quorum. Any director so appointed will hold office for the remainder of the term of the director no longer on the board.

Under both the Delaware Bylaws and the Nevada Bylaws, unless otherwise provided in the certificate of incorporation or articles of incorporation, as applicable, our Board, by a majority of the directors then in office, has the sole power to fill any vacancy on our Board, whether such vacancy occurs as a result of an increase in the number of directors or otherwise, unless the Board determines by resolution that any such vacancies or newly created directorships shall be filled by stockholders; provided, however, that whenever the holders of any class or classes of stock or series thereof are entitled to elect one or more directors by the provisions of the certificate of incorporation or articles of incorporation, as applicable, vacancies and newly created directorships of such class or classes or series shall, unless the Board determines by resolution that any such vacancies or newly created directorships shall be filled by stockholders, be filled by a majority of the directors elected by such class or classes or series thereon then in office, or by a sole remaining director so elected.

Director Removal

Under the DGCL, the holders of a majority of the voting power of the outstanding shares entitled to vote in the election of directors may vote to remove any director or the entire board with or without cause unless (i) the board is a classified board, in which case (unless the certificate of incorporation otherwise provides) directors may be removed only for cause, or (ii) the corporation has cumulative voting, in which case, if less than the entire board is to be removed, no director may be removed without cause if the votes cast against his or her removal would be sufficient to elect him or her. Under the Delaware Charter, any director or the entire board may be removed with or without cause.

The NRS requires the vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of the voting power of the shares or the applicable class or series of shares of the issued and outstanding stock entitled to vote at an election of directors in order to remove a director or all of the directors. The articles of incorporation may provide for a voting threshold higher than two-thirds of the voting power, but not lower. Furthermore, the NRS does not make a distinction between removals for cause and removals without cause (although corporations are free to specify otherwise in the articles of incorporation). Under the Nevada Charter, any director may be removed by an affirmative vote of the holders of the minimum percentage of voting power of the issued and outstanding shares entitled to vote thereon then permitted under the NRS, which at this time is at least two-thirds of such voting power and which at no time will be less than a simple majority of the voting power.

Fiduciary Duties and Business Judgment

Nevada, like most jurisdictions, requires that directors and officers of Nevada corporations exercise their powers in good faith, on an informed basis and with a view to the interests of the corporation but, unlike some other jurisdictions, including Delaware, fiduciary duties of directors and officers are codified. As a matter of statute, directors and officers, in making business decisions, are presumed to act in good faith, on an informed basis and with a view to the interests of the corporation.

In performing such duties, directors and officers may exercise their business judgment in reliance on information, opinions, reports, financial statements and other financial data prepared or presented by corporate directors, officers or employees who are reasonably believed to be reliable and competent. Reliance may also be extended to legal counsel, public accountants, advisers, bankers or other persons reasonably believed to be competent, and to the work of a committee (on which the particular director or officer does not serve) if the committee was established and empowered by the corporation’s board of directors, and if the committee’s work was within its designated authority and was about matters on which the committee was reasonably believed to merit confidence. However, directors and officers may not rely on such information, opinions, reports, books of account or similar statements if they have knowledge concerning the matter in question that would make such reliance unwarranted.

Under Delaware law, members of the board of directors or any committee designated by the board of directors are similarly entitled to rely in good faith upon the records of the corporation and upon such information, opinions, reports and statements presented to the corporation by corporate officers, employees, committees of the board of directors or other persons as to matters such member reasonably believes are within such other person’s professional or expert competence, provided that such other person has been selected with reasonable care by or on behalf of the corporation. Such appropriate reliance on records and other information protects directors from liability related to decisions made based on such records and other information. Nevada law extends the statutory protection for reliance on such persons to corporate officers.

Flexibility for Decisions, including Takeovers

Nevada provides directors with more discretion than Delaware in making corporate decisions, including decisions made in takeover situations. Under Nevada law, director and officer actions taken in response to a change or potential change in control are generally granted the benefits of the protections of the business judgment rule. However, in the case of an action to resist a change or potential change in control that impedes the rights of stockholders to vote for or remove directors, directors will only be given the benefit of the protections of the business judgment rule if the directors have reasonable grounds to believe a threat to corporate policy and effectiveness exists and the action taken that impedes the exercise of the stockholders’ rights is reasonable in relation to such threat; however, the NRS clarifies that this heightened standard does not apply to (i) actions that only affect the time of the exercise of stockholders’ voting rights or (ii) the adoption or signing of stockholder rights plans commonly referred to as “poison pills”.

In exercising their powers, including in response to a change or potential change of control, directors and officers of Nevada corporations may consider all relevant facts, circumstances, contingencies or constituencies, which may include, without limitation, the effect of the decision on corporate constituencies in addition to the stockholders, including the corporation’s employees, suppliers, creditors and customers, the economy of the state and nation, the interests of the community and society in general, and the long-term as well as short-term interests of the corporation and its stockholders, including the possibility that these interests may be best served by the continued independence of the corporation. To underscore the discretion of directors and officers of Nevada corporations, the NRS specifically states that such directors and officers are not required to consider the effect of a proposed corporate action upon any constituent as a dominant factor. Further, a director may resist a change or potential change in control of the corporation if the board of directors determines that the change or potential change of control is opposed to or not in the best interest of the corporation upon consideration of any relevant facts, circumstances, contingencies or constituencies, including that there are reasonable grounds to believe that, within a reasonable time the corporation or any successor would be or become insolvent or subjected to bankruptcy proceedings.

The DGCL does not provide a similar list of statutory factors that corporate directors and officers may consider in making decisions. Delaware law generally provides that the purpose of directors’ and officers’ fiduciary duties is to advance the best interests of the corporation and its stockholders, although in many circumstances, directors and officers can take into account a range of factors in advancing those interests. In a number of cases and in certain situations, however, Delaware law has been interpreted to provide that fiduciary duties require directors to accept an offer from the highest bidder regardless of the effect of such sale on the corporate constituencies other than the stockholders. Thus, the flexibility granted to directors of Nevada corporations when making business decisions, including in the context of a hostile takeover, are potentially greater than those granted to directors of Delaware corporations.

Limitation on Personal Liability of Directors and Officers

The DGCL and the NRS each, by way of statutory provisions or permitted provisions in corporate charter documents, eliminate or limit the personal liability of directors and officers to the corporation or their stockholders for monetary damages for breach of a director’s or officer’s fiduciary duty, subject to the differences discussed below.

The DGCL precludes liability limitation for directors and executive officers for breach of the duty of loyalty, for acts or omissions not in good faith or involving intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, for directors paying dividends or repurchasing or redeeming stock out of other than lawfully available funds, for improper personal benefits obtained from the corporation, and for officers in any action by or in the right of the corporation.

Under the NRS, in order for a director or officer to be individually liable to the corporation or its stockholders or creditors for damages as a result of any act or failure to act, the presumption of the business judgment rule, as codified in NRS 78.138(3), must be rebutted and it must be proven that the director’s or officer’s act or failure to act constituted a breach of his or her fiduciary duties as a director or officer and that the breach of those duties involved intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of law. Unlike the DGCL, however, the limitation on director and officer liability under the NRS does not treat as categorically excluded from its protections breaches of the duty of loyalty or transactions from which a director derives an improper personal benefit. Personal liability of directors for distributions made in violation of the NRS is limited by the same standard. Both the DGCL and the NRS permit limitation of liability for both directors and officers, though the NRS expressly also applies this limitation with respect to liabilities owed to creditors of the corporation. Furthermore, under the NRS, it is not necessary to adopt provisions in the articles of incorporation limiting personal liability of directors or officers as this limitation is provided by statute as a default. Under Delaware law, the exculpation of officers (namely, the chief executive officer, president, chief financial officer, chief operating officer, chief legal officer, controller, treasurer and chief accounting officer, as well as any other persons identified as “named executive officers” in a company’s most recent SEC filings) is authorized only in connection with direct claims brought by stockholders, including class actions. As described above, Delaware law does not eliminate monetary liability of officers for breach of fiduciary duty arising out of claims brought by the corporation itself or for derivative claims brought by stockholders in the name of the corporation.

As described above, the NRS provides broader protection from personal liability for directors and officers than the DGCL. Both the Delaware Charter and the Nevada Charter provide a limitation to director and officer liability to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware and Nevada law, respectively.

Indemnification

The DGCL and the NRS each permit corporations to indemnify directors, officers, employees and agents in similar circumstances, subject to the differences discussed below.

In suits that are not brought by or in the right of the corporation, both jurisdictions permit a corporation to indemnify current and former directors, officers, employees and agents for attorneys’ fees and other expenses, judgments and amounts paid in settlement that the person actually and reasonably incurred in connection with the action, suit or proceeding. The person seeking indemnity may recover as long as he or she acted in good faith and believed his or her actions were either in the best interests of or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation. With respect to a criminal proceeding, the person seeking indemnification must not have had any reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful.

Under the NRS, the person seeking indemnity may also be indemnified if he or she would not be liable for breach of his or her fiduciary duties under Nevada’s statutory test.

In derivative suits, a corporation in either jurisdiction may indemnify its directors, officers, employees or agents for expenses that the person actually and reasonably incurred. A corporation may not indemnify a person if the person was adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless a court otherwise orders.

The DGCL requires a Delaware corporation to indemnify current directors and certain officers against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred in successfully defending, on the merits or otherwise, against any action, suit or proceeding described above, or any claim, issue or matter therein. The NRS has a similar mandatory indemnification provision, but it is broader, covering directors, officers, employees, and agents who are successful on the merits or otherwise in defending any action, suit, or proceeding

Under the DGCL, the corporation, through its stockholders, disinterested directors or independent legal counsel, will determine whether the conduct of the person seeking indemnity conformed with the statutory provisions governing indemnity. Under the NRS, the corporation, through its stockholders, disinterested directors or independent counsel, must determine that the indemnification is proper.

Both the DGCL and NRS provide that the statutory indemnification rights are not exclusive and that corporations may provide additional, non-exclusive rights by charter/bylaw or contract, subject to each statute’s prohibitions.

Both the Delaware Bylaws and the Nevada Bylaws provide for indemnification to the fullest extent permitted by the applicable laws.

Advancement of Expenses

Under the DGCL, a corporation may advance expenses (including attorneys’ fees) to current or former officers, directors, employees, or agents of the corporation — or to persons serving at the corporation’s request in such roles at another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise — who incur such expenses in defending any civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative action, suit, or proceeding in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding, provided that the director or officer delivers an undertaking to repay the advanced amount if a court ultimately determines that he or she is not entitled to indemnification by the corporation. A Delaware corporation has the discretion to decide whether or not to advance expenses, unless its certificate of incorporation or bylaws provide for mandatory advancement.

The Delaware Bylaws provide that the Company shall advance all expenses incurred by any current or former director or executive officer in connection with any threatened, pending, or completed action, suit, or proceeding — whether civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative — arising by reason of such person’s service as a director or executive officer of the Company, or service at the Company’s request as a director or executive officer of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, or other enterprise. Such advancement must be made promptly following request therefor and prior to the final disposition of the proceeding. As required by the DGCL, advancement of expenses incurred by a director or officer in his or her capacity as such shall be conditioned upon delivery to the Company of an undertaking to repay all amounts so advanced if it is ultimately determined by final judicial decision from which there is no further right to appeal that such person is not entitled to indemnification for such expenses.

Under the NRS, unless otherwise restricted by the articles of incorporation, the bylaws or an agreement made by the corporation, the corporation may pay the expenses of officer and directors in advance of the final disposition of an action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the director or officer to repay the amount if it is ultimately determined that the director or officer is not entitled to be indemnified by the corporation.

The Nevada Bylaws are substantially similar to the Delaware Bylaws with respect to the advancement of expenses.

Director Compensation

The DGCL does not have a specific statute on the fairness of director compensation. In contrast, the NRS provides that, unless otherwise provided in the articles of incorporation or bylaws, the board of directors, without regard to personal interest, may establish the compensation of directors for services in any capacity. If the board of directors so establishes the compensation of directors, such compensation is be presumed to be fair to the corporation unless proven unfair by a preponderance of the evidence.

Action by Written Consent of Directors

Both the DGCL and NRS provide that, unless the certificate or articles of incorporation, as applicable, or the bylaws provide otherwise, any action required or permitted to be taken at a meeting of the directors or a committee thereof may be taken without a meeting if all members of the board or committee, as the case may be, consent to the action in writing, provided that, in certain circumstances, the NRS permits a director to abstain in writing from providing consent to the action.

Both the Delaware Bylaws and the Nevada Bylaws permit board action by written consent.

Actions by Written Consent of Stockholders

The DGCL provides that, unless the certificate of incorporation provides otherwise, any action required or permitted to be taken at a meeting of the stockholders may be taken without a meeting if the holders of outstanding stock having at least the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take the action at a meeting of stockholders consent to the action in writing. In addition, the DGCL requires the corporation to give prompt notice of the taking of corporate action without a meeting by less than unanimous written consent to those stockholders as of the record date for the action by consent who did not consent in writing and who would have been entitled to notice of the meeting if the action had been taken at a meeting and the record date for the notice of the meeting were the record date for the action by consent. There is no equivalent notice requirement under the NRS.

The NRS provides that unless otherwise provided in the articles of incorporation or the bylaws, any action required or permitted to be taken at a meeting of the stockholders may be taken without a meeting if, before or after the action, a written consent thereto is signed by stockholders holding at least a majority of the voting power, except that if a different proportion of voting power is required for such an action at a meeting, then that proportion of written consents is required. The NRS also permits a corporation to prohibit stockholder action by written consent in lieu of a meeting of stockholders by including such prohibition in its articles of incorporation or bylaws.

Under the Delaware Bylaws and the Nevada Bylaws, any action required or permitted to be taken by the stockholders of the Company may be taken by written consent of the stockholders of the Company if such consent (or electronic transmission setting for the action so taken) is signed by the holders of outstanding stock of the Company having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting of stockholders at which all shares of stock of the Company entitled to vote on the action were present and voted.

Dividends and Distributions

The DGCL provides that, unless further restricted in its certificate of incorporation, a corporation may declare and pay dividends out of either (i) surplus or (ii) if no surplus exists, out of net profits for the fiscal year in which the dividend is declared and/or the preceding fiscal year (provided that the amount of capital of the corporation is not less than the aggregate amount of the capital represented by the issued and outstanding stock of all classes having a preference upon the distribution of assets). The DGCL defines surplus as the excess, at any time, of the net assets of a corporation over its stated capital. In addition, the DGCL provides that a corporation may redeem or repurchase its shares only when the capital of the corporation is not impaired and only if such redemption or repurchase would not cause any impairment of the capital of the corporation, and Delaware law prohibits a corporation from declaring or paying a dividend, or redeeming or repurchasing shares of its stock, if the corporation is insolvent.

The NRS defines a distribution as a direct or indirect transfer of money or other property, other than the corporation’s own shares or the incurrence by the corporation of indebtedness, to or for the benefit of all holders of shares of any one or more classes or series of the capital stock of the corporation, with respect to such shares. A distribution may be in the form of a declaration or payment of a dividend, a purchase, redemption or other acquisition of shares, a distribution of indebtedness, or otherwise. The NRS provides that no distribution may be made if, after giving effect to such distribution, (i) the corporation would not be able to pay its debts as they become due in the usual course of business or (ii) except as otherwise specifically permitted by the articles of incorporation, the corporation’s total assets would be less than the sum of its total liabilities plus the amount that would be needed at the time of a dissolution to satisfy the preferential rights of preferred stockholders. Directors may consider financial statements prepared on the basis of accounting practices that are reasonable in the circumstances, a fair valuation, including but not limited to unrealized appreciation and depreciation, and any other method that is reasonable in the circumstances.

The Nevada Charter has affirmatively opted out of the Balance Sheet Test described in (ii) above.

Restrictions on Business Combinations

Both Delaware and Nevada law provide certain protections to stockholders in connection with certain business combinations. These protections can be found in Section 203 of the DGCL and NRS 78.411 to 78.444, inclusive.

Under Section 203 of the DGCL, certain “business combinations” with “interested stockholders” of a corporation are subject to a three-year moratorium from the time that such stockholder became an interested stockholder unless specified conditions are met. For purposes of Section 203, the term “business combination” is defined broadly to

include (i) certain mergers and consolidations; (ii) sales leases, exchanges, mortgages, pledges, transfers or other dispositions of assets having an aggregate market value of 10% or more of either the consolidated assets or the outstanding stock of a company; (iii) certain transactions that would result in the issuance or transfer of stock of the corporation to an interested stockholder; (iv) certain transactions that have the effect, directly or indirectly, of increasing the proportionate share of stock of the corporation which is owned by the interested stockholder, subject to exceptions; and (v) any receipt by the interested stockholder of the benefit, directly or indirectly, of any loans, advances, guarantees, pledges or other financial benefits provided by or through the corporation, subject to certain exceptions. “Interested stockholder” is generally defined as a person that directly or indirectly owns (together with its affiliates and associates) 15% or more of the outstanding voting stock of a Delaware corporation or is an affiliate or associate of the corporation and was the owner (together with its affiliates and associates) of 15% or more of the outstanding voting stock of the corporation at any time within the 3-year period before the date on which it is sought to be determined whether such person is an interested stockholder, in each case subject to certain exceptions.

The DGCL provides an exception to this prohibition if: (i) the corporation’s board of directors approved either the business combination or the transaction in which the stockholder became an interested stockholder prior to the date the interested stockholder became an interested stockholder; (ii) the interested stockholder acquired at least 85% of the voting stock of the corporation (excluding for purposes of determining the voting stock outstanding, but not the outstanding voting stock owned by the interested stockholder, shares owned by persons who are directors and also officers, and employee stock plans in which participants do not have the right to determine whether shares will be tendered in a tender or exchange offer) in the transaction in which it became an interested stockholder; or (iii) the business combination is approved by the board of directors and the affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of the votes entitled to be cast by disinterested stockholders at an annual or special meeting (and not by written consent).

NRS 78.411 to 78.444, inclusive, regulate combinations more stringently. The NRS imposes a moratorium of up to four years versus Delaware’s three-year moratorium on business combinations with an interested stockholder. An interested stockholder is defined as a beneficial owner of 10% or more of the voting power. The two-year moratorium can be avoided by advance approval of the combination or the transaction by which such person first becomes an interested stockholder by a corporation’s board of directors. After the person becomes an interested stockholder, the combination must be approved by the board and 60% of the corporation’s voting power not beneficially owned by the interested stockholder, its affiliates and associates, at a meeting of the stockholders. Finally, after the two-year period, up to four years from the date the person first became an interested stockholder, a combination remains prohibited unless: (i) the combination or the transaction by which the person became an interested stockholder is approved by the board of directors before the person became an interested stockholder; (ii) the combination is approved by a majority of the outstanding voting power not beneficially owned by the interested stockholder and its affiliates and associates; or (iii) the consideration to be received by the disinterested stockholders satisfies certain requirements. The combinations statutes in Nevada apply only to Nevada corporations with 200 or more stockholders of record.

Companies are entitled to opt out of the business combination provisions of the DGCL and NRS. The Company has not opted out of the business combination provisions of Section 203 of the DGCL in the Delaware Charter. The Company has opted out of the business combination provisions of NRS 78.411 to 78.444, inclusive, under the Nevada Charter. Any opt-out of the business combination provisions of the NRS must be contained in a Nevada corporation’s original articles of incorporation or in an amendment to the articles of incorporation of a Nevada corporation approved by a majority of the outstanding voting power not then owned by interested stockholders, but the amendment would not be effective until 18 months after the vote of the stockholders to approve the amendment and would not apply to any combination with a person who first became an interested stockholder on or before the effective date of the amendment. As a result of the Company opting out of the provisions, the restrictions of NRS 78.411 to 78.444, inclusive, will not apply to combinations with or involving any interested stockholder.

Acquisition of Controlling Interests

In addition to the restrictions on business combinations with interested stockholders, Nevada law also protects a corporation and its stockholders from persons acquiring a “controlling interest” in a corporation. The provisions can be found in NRS 78.378 to 78.3793, inclusive, which are sometimes referred to as the Nevada “control share” statute. Delaware law does not have similar provisions.

Pursuant to the Nevada control share statute, any person who acquires a controlling interest in a corporation may not exercise voting rights on any control shares unless such voting rights are conferred by a majority vote of the disinterested stockholders of the issuing corporation at an annual meeting or a special meeting of such stockholders

held upon the request and at the expense of the acquiring person. The control share statute provides that a “controlling interest” means the ownership of outstanding voting shares of an issuing corporation sufficient to enable the acquiring person, individually or in association with others, directly or indirectly, to exercise (i) one-fifth or more but less than one-third, (ii) one-third or more but less than a majority or (iii) a majority or more of the voting power of the issuing corporation in the election of directors, and once an acquirer crosses one of these thresholds, shares that it acquired in the transaction taking it over the threshold and within the 90 days immediately preceding the date when the acquiring person acquired or offered to acquire a controlling interest become “control shares” to which the voting restrictions described above apply. In the event that the control shares are accorded full voting rights and the acquiring person acquires control shares with a majority or more of all the voting power, any stockholder, other than the acquiring person, who does not vote in favor of authorizing voting rights for the control shares is entitled to assert dissenter’s rights under NRS 92A.300 through 92A.500, inclusive, and demand payment for the fair value of such person’s shares in accordance with such statutes.

The control share statute does not apply to any acquisition of a controlling interest in an issuing corporation if the articles of incorporation or bylaws of the corporation in effect on the 10th day following the acquisition of a controlling interest by the acquiring person provide that the provisions of those sections do not apply to the corporation or to an acquisition of a controlling interest specifically by types of existing or future stockholders, whether or not identified. In addition, the control share statute provides that the controlling interest statutes apply as of a particular date only to a corporation that has 200 or more stockholders of record, at least 100 of whom have addresses in Nevada appearing on the corporation’s stock ledger at all times during the 90 days immediately preceding that date, and which does business in Nevada directly or through an affiliated corporation. The control share statute provides that the corporation may impose stricter requirements if it so desires.

Corporations are entitled to opt out of the above controlling interest provisions of the NRS. In the Nevada Bylaws, the Company has opted out of these provisions.

Stockholder Vote for Mergers, Asset Sales and Other Corporate Reorganizations

Under the DGCL, unless the certificate of incorporation specifies a higher percentage, the stockholders of a corporation that is being acquired in a merger or selling, leasing or exchanging all or substantially all of its assets must authorize such merger or sale of assets by vote of a majority of the outstanding stock of the corporation entitled to vote thereon. The corporation’s board of directors must also approve such transaction. Similarly, under the NRS, a merger or sale of all assets requires authorization by stockholders of the corporation being acquired or selling its assets by at least a majority of the voting power of the outstanding shares entitled to vote, as well as approval of such corporation’s board of directors.

Although a substantial body of case law has been developed in Delaware as to what constitutes the “sale of substantially all of the assets” of a corporation, it is difficult to determine the point at which a sale of substantially all, but less than all, of a corporation’s assets would be considered a “sale of all of the assets” of the corporation for purposes of Nevada law. It is possible that some sales of less than all of the assets of a corporation requiring stockholder authorization under Delaware law would not require stockholder authorization under Nevada law.

The DGCL and NRS have substantially similar provisions with respect to approval by stockholders of a surviving corporation in a merger. The DGCL does not require a stockholder vote of a constituent corporation in a merger (unless the corporation provides otherwise in its certificate of incorporation) if (i) the plan of merger does not amend the existing certificate of incorporation, (ii) each share of stock of such constituent corporation outstanding immediately before the effective date of the merger is an identical outstanding share after the effective date of merger and (iii) either no shares of the common stock of the surviving corporation and no shares, securities or obligations convertible into such stock are to be issued or delivered under the plan of merger, or the authorized unissued shares or treasury shares of the common stock of the surviving corporation to be issued or delivered under the plan of merger plus those initially issuable upon conversion of any other shares, securities or obligations to be issued or delivered under such plan do not exceed 20% of the shares of common stock of such constituent corporation outstanding immediately prior to the effective date of the merger. The NRS does not require a stockholder vote of the surviving corporation in a merger under substantially similar circumstances.

Appraisal or Dissenter’s Rights

In both jurisdictions, dissenting stockholders of a corporation engaged in certain major corporate transactions are entitled to demand a payment in cash generally equal to the fair value of the stockholder’s shares (as determined by agreement of the parties or by a court) in lieu of the consideration such stockholder would otherwise receive in any such transaction.

Under Section 262 of the DGCL, appraisal rights are generally available for the shares of any class or series of stock of a Delaware corporation in a merger, consolidation, conversion, transfer, domestication or continuance (subject to certain exceptions as set forth in Section 262 of the DGCL), provided that no appraisal rights are available with respect to shares of any class or series of stock if, at the record date fixed to determine the stockholders entitled to act without a meeting or the stockholders entitled to notice of the meeting to approve such transaction, such shares of stock, or depositary receipts in respect thereof, are either (i) listed on a national securities exchange or (ii) held of record by more than 2,000 holders, in each case unless the stockholders are required by the terms of an agreement of merger or consolidation, or by the terms of a resolution providing for conversion, transfer, domestication or continuance to accept in exchange for their shares anything other than shares of stock of the surviving or resulting corporation, or of the converted entity if such entity is a corporation as a result of the conversion (or depositary receipts in respect thereof), or of any other corporation that is listed on a national securities exchange or held by more than 2,000 holders of record, cash in lieu of fractional shares or fractional depositary receipts described above or any combination of the foregoing.

In addition, Section 262 of the DGCL allows beneficial owners of shares to demand an appraisal of such beneficial owner’s shares and to file a petition for appraisal without the need to name a nominee holding such shares on behalf of such owner as a nominal plaintiff and makes it easier than under Nevada law to withdraw from the appraisal process and accept the terms offered in the merger, consolidation, conversion, transfer, domestication or continuance. Under the DGCL, no appraisal rights are available to stockholders of the surviving or resulting corporation if the merger did not require their approval. The Delaware Charter and Delaware Bylaws do not provide for appraisal rights in addition to those provided by the DGCL.

Under the NRS, a stockholder is entitled to dissent from, and obtain payment for, the fair value of the stockholder’s shares in the event of (i) accordance of full voting rights under certain circumstances in connection with acquisitions of a controlling interest in the corporation, (ii) consummation of a plan of merger, if approval by the stockholders is required for the merger, regardless of whether the stockholder is entitled to vote on the merger or if the domestic corporation is a subsidiary and is merged with its parent, or if the domestic corporation is a constituent entity in a merger pursuant to NRS 92A.133, (iii) consummation of a plan of conversion to which the corporation is a party, (iv) consummation of a plan of exchange in which the corporation is a party, (v) any corporate action taken pursuant to a vote of the stockholders, if the articles of incorporation, bylaws or a resolution of the board of directors provides that voting or nonvoting stockholders are entitled to dissent and obtain payment for their shares or (vi) any corporate action to which the stockholder would be obligated, as a result of the corporate action, to accept money or scrip rather than receive a fraction of a share in exchange for the cancellation of all the stockholder’s outstanding shares, except where the stockholder would not be entitled to receive such payment pursuant to NRS 78.205, 78.2055 or 78.207. Additionally, under the NRS, a beneficial owner of shares may assert dissenter’s rights as to shares held on such beneficial owner’s behalf only if the beneficial owner: (a) submits to the corporation the written consent of the stockholder of record to the dissent not later than the time the beneficial owner asserts dissenter’s rights; and (b) does so with respect to all shares of which such beneficial owner is the beneficial owner or over which such beneficial owner has power to direct the vote.

Holders of covered securities (generally those that are listed on a national securities exchange), any shares traded in an organized market and held by at least 2,000 stockholders of record with a market value of at least $20 million (exclusive of the value of such shares held by the corporation’s subsidiaries, senior executives, directors and beneficial stockholders owning more than 10% of such shares), and any shares issued by an open-end management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 and which may be redeemed at the option of the holder at net asset value are generally not entitled to dissenter’s rights. However, this exception is not available if (i) the articles of incorporation of the corporation issuing the shares provide that such exception is not available, (ii) the resolution of the board of directors approving the plan of merger, conversion or exchange expressly provides otherwise or (iii) the holders of the class or series of stock are required by the terms of the corporate action to accept for the shares anything except cash, any security that satisfies certain requirements of NRS 92A.390(1) at the time

the corporate action becomes effective, or any combination thereof. The exception is also unavailable in the event of (i) accordance of full voting rights under certain circumstances in connection with acquisitions of a controlling interest in the corporation and (ii) any corporate action taken pursuant to a vote of the stockholders, if the articles of incorporation, bylaws or a resolution of the board of directors provides that voting or nonvoting stockholders are entitled to dissent and obtain payment for their shares. The NRS prohibits a dissenting stockholder from voting his or her shares or receiving certain dividends or distributions after his or her dissent. The Nevada Charter and Nevada Bylaws do not provide for dissenter’s rights in addition to those provided by the NRS.

The mechanics and timing procedures vary somewhat between Delaware and Nevada, but both require technical compliance with specific notice and payment protocols.

Special Meetings of Stockholders

The DGCL permits special meetings of stockholders to be called by the board of directors or by any other person authorized in the certificate of incorporation or bylaws to call a special stockholder meeting. In contrast, the NRS permits special meetings of stockholders to be called by the entire board of directors, any two directors or the President, unless the articles of incorporation or bylaws provide otherwise.

Under the Delaware Bylaws, a special meeting of stockholders may be called only by: (i) the Chair of the Board of Directors, (ii) the Chief Executive Officer, (iii) the Board of Directors pursuant to a resolution adopted by directors representing a quorum of the Board of Directors, or (iv) by the holders of shares entitled to cast not less than 50% of the votes at the meeting.

The Nevada Bylaws contain substantially similar provisions.

Annual Meetings Pursuant to Petition of Stockholders

The DGCL provides that a director or a stockholder of a corporation may apply to the Delaware Court of Chancery if the corporation fails to hold an annual meeting for the election of directors or there is no written consent to elect directors in lieu of an annual meeting for a period of 30 days after the date designated for the annual meeting or, if there is no date designated, within 13 months after the last annual meeting or the last action by written consent to elect directors in lieu of an annual meeting.

Under the NRS, stockholders having not less than 15% of the voting power may petition the district court to order a meeting for the election of directors if a corporation fails to call a meeting for that purpose within 18 months after the last annual meeting at which directors were elected.

Adjournment of Stockholder Meetings

Under the DGCL, if a meeting of stockholders is adjourned and the adjournment is for more than 30 days, or if after the adjournment a new record date to determine stockholders entitled to vote is fixed for the adjourned meeting, notice of the adjourned meeting must be given to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at the meeting. At the adjourned meeting, the corporation may transact any business that might have been transacted at the original meeting.

In contrast, under the NRS, a corporation is not required to give any notice of an adjourned meeting or of the business to be transacted at an adjourned meeting, other than by announcement at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken, unless the board of directors of the corporation fixes a new record date for the adjourned meeting or the meeting date is adjourned to a date more than 60 days later than the date set for the original meeting, in which case a new record date must be fixed and notice given.

Duration of Proxies

Under the DGCL, a proxy executed by a stockholder will remain valid for a period of three years, unless the proxy provides for a longer period. The DGCL provides for irrevocable proxies, without limitation on duration, if such proxy states that it is irrevocable and if, and only as long as, it is coupled with an interest sufficient in law to support an irrevocable power.

Under the NRS, a proxy is effective only for a period of six months, unless it is coupled with an interest or unless otherwise provided in the proxy, which duration may not exceed seven years. The NRS also provides for irrevocable proxies, without limitation on duration, if such proxy states that it is irrevocable, but the proxy is irrevocable only for so long as it is coupled with an interest sufficient in law to support an irrevocable power, including interests specified in the NRS.

Quorum and Voting

The DGCL provides that the certificate of incorporation and bylaws may establish quorum and voting requirements, but in no event shall quorum consist of less than one-third of the voting power of the shares entitled to vote. If the certificate of incorporation and bylaws are silent as to specific quorum and voting requirements: (i) a majority of the voting power of the shares entitled to vote shall constitute a quorum at a meeting of stockholders; (ii) in all matters other than the election of directors, the affirmative vote of the majority of the voting power of the shares present at the meeting and entitled to vote on the subject matter shall be the act of the stockholders; (iii) directors shall be elected by a plurality of the votes of the shares present at the meeting and entitled to vote on the election of directors; and (iv) where a separate vote by a class or series or classes or series is required, a majority of the outstanding voting power of the shares of such class or series or classes or series shall constitute a quorum entitled to take action with respect to the vote on that matter and, in all matters other than the election of directors, the affirmative vote of the majority of the voting power of the shares of such class or series or classes or series present at the meeting shall be the act of such class or series or classes or series. Under the DGCL, a bylaw amendment adopted by stockholders which specifies the votes that shall be necessary for the election of directors shall not be further amended or repealed by the board.

The Delaware Bylaws provide that except where otherwise required by statute or the Delaware Charter or the Delaware Bylaws, at all meetings of stockholders, the presence in person, by remote communication, if applicable, or by proxy duly authorized, of the holders of one-third (1/3) of the outstanding shares of stock entitled to vote will constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at such meeting. The Delaware Bylaws provide that, except where otherwise required by statute or the Delaware Charter or the Delaware Bylaws, in all matters other than the election of directors, a majority of shares present in person, by remote communication, if applicable, or represented by proxy duly authorized at the meeting and entitled to vote generally on the subject matter shall be the act of the stockholders. In addition, except where otherwise required by statute or the Delaware Charter or the Delaware Bylaws, directors will be elected by a plurality of the votes of the shares present in person, by remote communication, if applicable, or represented by proxy duly authorized at the meeting and entitled to vote generally on the election of directors.

The NRS provides that, unless the articles of incorporation or bylaws provide otherwise, a majority of the voting power of the corporation, present in person or by proxy at a meeting of stockholders (regardless of whether the proxy has authority to vote on any matter), constitutes a quorum for the transaction of business. Under the NRS, unless the articles of incorporation or bylaws provide for different proportions, action by the stockholders on a matter other than the election of directors is approved if the number of votes cast in favor of the action exceeds the number of votes cast in opposition to the action. Unless provided otherwise in the corporation’s articles of incorporation or bylaws, directors are elected at the annual meeting of stockholders by plurality vote.

The Nevada Bylaws contain quorum provisions substantially similar to those in the Delaware Bylaws. The Nevada Bylaws provide that, except as otherwise provided by the NRS, the Articles of Incorporation or the Bylaws, in all matters other than the election of directors, if a quorum is present, action by the stockholders entitled to vote on a matter is approved by and is the act of the stockholders if the number of votes cast in favor of the action exceeds the number of votes cast in opposition to the action, unless voting by classes or series is required for any action of the stockholders by the NRS, the Articles of Incorporation or the Bylaws, in which case the number of votes cast in favor of the action by the voting power of each such class or series must exceed the number of votes cast in opposition to the action by the voting power of each such class or series. In addition, except as otherwise provided by the NRS, the Articles of Incorporation or the Bylaws, directors will be elected by a plurality of the votes cast by the holders of the shares present in person, including by remote communication, if applicable, or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote generally on the election of directors.

Stockholder Inspection Rights

Under the DGCL, any stockholder may inspect, and make copies and extracts from, a Delaware corporation’s books and records during normal business hours for any proper purpose (defined to mean a purpose reasonably related to the stockholder’s interest as a stockholder) upon written demand under oath stating if (i) the demand is made in good faith and for a proper purpose, (ii) the demand describes with reasonable particularity the stockholder’s purpose and the books and records the stockholder seeks to inspect and (iii) the books and records sought are specifically related to the stockholder’s purpose.

The DGCL generally defines “books and records” to mean (i) the certificate of incorporation and bylaws (and documents incorporated therein by reference); (2) the annual financial statements for the preceding three years; (3) stockholder meeting minutes, stockholder consents and communications to stockholders generally within the preceding three years; (4) minutes and records of actions of the board of directors or a committee thereof and any materials provided to the board of directors or a committee in connection with actions taken thereby; (5) agreements between the company and one or more current or prospective stockholders (including beneficial owners) entered into under Section 122(18) of the DGCL; and (6) director and officer questionnaires.

The DGCL provides that the corporation may impose reasonable restrictions on the confidentiality, use, and distribution of books and records and may require the stockholder to stipulate that any books and records received are deemed incorporated by reference in any follow-on complaint in a plenary action relating to the subject matter of the demand. The corporation may redact portions of any books and records produced to a stockholder to the extent the portions so redacted are not specifically related to the stockholder’s purpose.

If a Delaware corporation refuses to permit inspection or does not reply to the demand within five business days after the demand has been made, the stockholder may apply to the Delaware Court for an order to compel such inspection.

Inspection rights under Nevada law are more limited. NRS 78.105 grants any person who has been a stockholder of record of a corporation for at least six months immediately preceding the demand, or any person holding, or thereunto authorized in writing by the holders of, at least 5% of all of its outstanding shares, upon at least five days’ written demand, the right to inspect in person or by agent or attorney, during usual business hours (i) the articles of incorporation and all amendments thereto, (ii) the bylaws and all amendments thereto and (iii) a stock ledger or a duplicate stock ledger, revised annually, containing the names, alphabetically arranged, of all persons who are stockholders of record of the corporation, showing their places of residence, if known, and the number of shares held by them, respectively. Nevada law further provides that a corporation is not required to keep a list of any person who is a beneficial owner of any shares who is not simultaneously the stockholder of record of such shares. Any stockholder or other person making a demand under NRS 78.105 must furnish an affidavit to the corporation stating that the inspection is not desired for a purpose which is in the interest of a business or object other than the business of the corporation and that the stockholder or other person has not at any time sold or offered for sale any list of stockholders of any domestic or foreign corporation or aided or abetted any person in procuring any such record of stockholders for any such sale or offer for sale.

In addition, NRS 78.257 grants certain stockholders the right to inspect the books of account and financial statements of a corporation for any purpose related to the stockholder’s interest as a stockholder. The right to inspect the books of account and financial statements of a corporation, to make copies of records and to conduct an audit of such records is granted only to a stockholder of record who owns at least 15% of the issued and outstanding shares of a Nevada corporation, or who has been authorized in writing by the holders of at least 15% of such shares or any other information concerning any person having an interest in the corporation. Any person making such a demand shall furnish an affidavit to the corporation stating that the inspection is not desired for any purpose not related to his or her interest as a stockholder. Further, as a condition to such inspection right, the board of directors may require the stockholder and each other person exercising such right to enter into and comply with a confidentiality agreement having such terms and scope as are reasonably related to protecting the legitimate interests of the corporation. However, the inspection rights discussed in this paragraph do not apply to any corporation, such as the Company, that furnishes to its stockholders a detailed annual financial statement or any corporation that has filed during the preceding 12 months all reports required to be filed pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act.

Business Opportunities

Under Delaware law, the corporate opportunity doctrine holds that a corporate officer or director may not generally and unilaterally take a business opportunity for his or her own. Factors to be considered include: (i) whether the corporation is financially able to exploit the opportunity; (ii) if the opportunity is within the corporation’s line of business; (iii) whether the corporation has an interest or expectancy in the opportunity; and (iv) whether by taking the opportunity for his or her own, the corporate fiduciary will thereby be placed in a position inimical to his duties to the corporation.

The DGCL permits a Delaware corporation to renounce, in its certificate of incorporation or by action of the board of directors, any interest or expectancy of the corporation in, or being offered an opportunity to participate in, specified business opportunities or specified classes or categories of business opportunities that are presented to the corporation or one or more of its officers, directors or stockholders.

Similar to the DGCL, the NRS permits a Nevada corporation to renounce, in its articles of incorporation or by action of the board of directors, any interest or expectancy to participate in specified business opportunities or specified classes or categories of business opportunities that are presented to the corporation or one or more of its officers, directors or stockholders.

Neither the Delaware Charter nor the Nevada Charter has renounced the doctrine of “corporate opportunity.”

Jury Waiver

Jury trials are generally not available in the Delaware Court of Chancery, which is the Court in which stockholder suits relating to the internal affairs of a Delaware corporation must be filed.

In Nevada, certain matters may be heard by juries. However, the NRS permits Nevada corporations to include in their articles of incorporation a limited waiver of the right to a jury trial for internal actions (i.e., an action: brought in the name or right of the Company or on its behalf; for or based upon any breach of any fiduciary duty owed by any director, officer or controlling stockholder of the corporation in such capacity; or asserting a claim pursuant to any provision of NRS Title 7 or the Nevada Charter or Nevada Bylaws).

As permitted by the NRS, the Nevada Charter provides that any internal action to be tried in any court of the State of Nevada must be tried before the presiding judge as the trier of fact, and not before a jury. This provision will operate as a waiver of the right to trial by jury by each party to any such internal action.

Franchise Tax Savings and Filing Fees

Typically, annual franchise taxes paid to the State of Delaware are approximately $200,000 for a company of our size, which will no longer be required to be paid if the Nevada Reincorporation is completed. If the Nevada Reincorporation is completed, our current annual fees in Nevada will consist of an annual state business license fee and a fee for filing the Company’s annual list of directors and officers based on the number of authorized shares and their par value, and there are certain immaterial fees associated with effecting the Nevada Reincorporation via conversion that the Company will be required to pay.

Certain Matters That Will Not Change After Nevada Reincorporation

Apart from being governed by the Nevada Charter, Nevada Bylaws and the NRS, upon completion of the Nevada Reincorporation, the Company will continue to exist, without interruption, in the form of a Nevada corporation. By virtue of the Nevada Reincorporation, all of the rights, privileges and powers of the Company, and all property, real, personal and mixed, and all debts due to the Company, as well as all other things and causes of action belonging to the Company, will remain vested in the Nevada Corporation and will be the property of the Nevada Corporation. In addition, the Nevada Corporation will have all debts, liabilities and duties of the Company and the same may be enforced against the Nevada Corporation.

No Change in Business, Jobs or Physical Location

The Nevada Reincorporation will not result in any change in business, jobs, management, properties, location of any of our offices or facilities, number of employees, obligations, assets, liabilities or net worth (other than as a result of the costs related to the Nevada Reincorporation). We intend to maintain our corporate headquarters in Florida.

Our management, including all directors and officers and the positions they respectively hold, will be unchanged as a result of the Nevada Reincorporation. To the extent that the Nevada Reincorporation will require the consent or waiver of a third party, the Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such consent or waiver before completing the Nevada Reincorporation. The Company does not expect that any such required consent will impede its ability to reincorporate to Nevada. The Nevada Reincorporation will not otherwise adversely affect any of the Company’s material contracts with any third parties, and the Company’s rights and obligations under such material contractual arrangements will continue as rights and obligations of the Nevada Corporation.

No Securities Law Consequences

We will continue to be a publicly held company following completion of the Nevada Reincorporation, and our common stock would continue to be listed on The Nasdaq Capital Market and traded under the symbol “DFDV”. The Company will continue to file required periodic reports and other documents with the SEC. There is not expected to be any interruption in the trading of the common stock as a result of the Nevada Reincorporation. We and our stockholders will be in the same respective positions under the federal securities laws after the Nevada Reincorporation as we and our stockholders were prior to the Nevada Reincorporation.

No Material Accounting Implications

Effecting the Nevada Reincorporation will not have any material accounting implications.

Anti-Takeover Implications of the Nevada Reincorporation

The Nevada Reincorporation is not being effected to prevent a sale of the Company, nor is it in response to any present attempt known to our Board to acquire control of the Company or obtain representation on our Board. Moreover, as of the date of this Information Statement, the Majority Stockholders beneficially own approximately 81.79% of the voting power of the Company’s capital stock, and accordingly currently have the ability to discourage, delay, or prevent any attempt to acquire control of the Company. Nevertheless, certain effects of the Nevada Reincorporation may be considered to have anti-takeover implications by virtue of being subject to Nevada law.

Delaware law and the Delaware Charter and Delaware Bylaws contain provisions that may have the effect of deterring hostile takeover attempts. A hostile takeover attempt may have a positive or negative effect on the Company and its stockholders, depending on the circumstances surrounding a particular takeover attempt. Takeover attempts that have not been negotiated or approved by our Board can be opportunistically timed to take advantage of an artificially depressed stock price. Takeover attempts can also be coercively structured, can disrupt the business and management of a corporation and can generally present a risk of terms that may be less favorable than would be available in a board-approved transaction. In contrast, transactions approved by our Board may be carefully planned and undertaken at an opportune time in order to obtain maximum value for the corporation and all of its stockholders by determining and pursuing the best strategic alternative, obtaining negotiating leverage to achieve the best terms available, and giving due consideration to matters such as tax planning, the management and business of the acquiring corporation and the most effective deployment of corporate assets.

Our Board recognizes that hostile takeover attempts do not always have the unfavorable consequences or effects described above and may be beneficial to stockholders, providing them with considerable value for their shares. However, our Board believes that the potential disadvantages of unapproved takeover attempts are sufficiently great that prudent measures are needed to give our Board the time and flexibility to determine and pursue potentially superior strategic alternatives and take other appropriate action in an effort to maximize stockholder value. Accordingly, the Delaware Charter and Delaware Bylaws include certain provisions that are intended to accomplish these objectives, but which may have the effect of discouraging or deterring hostile takeover attempts.

Nevada law includes some additional features that may deter hostile takeover attempts. The Nevada Charter and Nevada Bylaws contain certain anti-takeover provisions similar to those set forth in the Delaware Charter and Delaware Bylaws; both the Delaware Charter and Nevada Bylaws allow our Board alone to fill any directorship vacancies and to set the size of the board of directors. Notwithstanding these similarities, there are certain differences between Nevada and Delaware corporate law which could have a bearing on unapproved takeover attempts. For example, as discussed in greater detail above, the NRS regulates certain business combinations with “interested stockholders”

more stringently than the DGCL does in certain respects, but the Company has elected to opt out of these statutes in the Nevada Charter. Nevada also has a statute regulating the acquisition of certain “control shares” that can inhibit certain takeover attempts, but the Company has elected to opt out of the application of that statute in the Nevada Bylaws.

Our Board may in the future propose other measures designed to address hostile takeovers apart from those discussed in this Information Statement, if warranted from time to time in the judgment of our Board.

Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences

The Nevada Reincorporation is intended to be a tax-free reorganization under Section 368(a)(1)(F) of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“Code”). Accordingly, we expect that, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, no gain or loss will be recognized by the Company or the stockholders of the Company who receive Nevada common stock for their existing common stock of the Company (the “Delaware common stock”) or who receive Series A Preferred Stock of the Nevada Corporation (the “Nevada preferred stock”) in exchange for their existing Series A Preferred Stock of the Delaware Corporation (the “Delaware preferred stock”) in connection with the Nevada Reincorporation. The aggregate tax basis of the Nevada common stock or Nevada preferred stock received by a stockholder of the Company as a result of the Nevada Reincorporation will be the same as the aggregate tax basis of the Delaware common stock converted into that Nevada common stock or Delaware preferred stock converted into that Nevada preferred stock held by that stockholder as a capital asset at the time of the Nevada Reincorporation. Each stockholder’s holding period of shares of Nevada common stock or Nevada preferred stock received in the Nevada Reincorporation will include the holding period of the shares of Delaware common stock or Delaware preferred stock converted into those shares of Nevada common stock or Nevada preferred stock, provided the shares are held by such stockholder as a capital asset at the time of the Nevada Reincorporation.

This Information Statement only discusses U.S. federal income tax consequences and has done so only for general information. It does not address all of the U.S. federal income tax consequences that may be relevant to particular stockholders based upon individual circumstances or to stockholders who are subject to special rules, such as financial institutions, tax-exempt organizations, insurance companies, dealers in securities, stockholders who hold their stock through a partnership or as part of a straddle or other derivative arrangement, foreign holders or holders who acquired their shares as compensation, whether through employee stock options or otherwise. This Information Statement does not address the tax consequences under any state, local or foreign laws. State, local or foreign income tax consequences to stockholders may vary from the U.S. federal income tax consequences described above, and stockholders are urged to consult their own tax advisors as to the consequences to them of the Nevada Reincorporation under all applicable tax laws.

This discussion is based on the Code, applicable Treasury Regulations, judicial authority and administrative rulings and practice, all in effect as of the date of this Information Statement, all of which are subject to change or different interpretations, possibly with retroactive effect. The Company has neither requested nor received, and does not intend to request, a ruling from the Internal Revenue Service regarding the consequences of the Nevada Reincorporation. There can be no assurance that future legislation, regulations, administrative rulings or court decisions would not alter the consequences discussed above.

You should consult your own tax advisor to determine the particular tax consequences to you of the Nevada Reincorporation, including the applicability and effect of U.S. federal, state, local, foreign and other tax laws.

Interests of Certain Persons

Our Board believes that the corporate laws of the state of Delaware and the state of Nevada are substantially equivalent as to the rights of stockholders, at least on balance of the relevant considerations against one another and as relevant to the Company. As part of its process, the Board considered if reincorporation to Nevada would convey any non-ratable benefits on any of the Company’s directors or officers and did not identify any such non-ratable benefits. However, others may allege that our directors and executive officers may be considered to have interests in the Nevada Reincorporation that are different from, or in addition to, the interests of our stockholders generally. The Special Committee and our Board have considered these potential interests, among other matters, in reaching the decision to approve the Nevada Reincorporation and to recommend that our stockholders approve the Nevada Reincorporation.

SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT

The following table sets forth certain information with respect to the beneficial ownership of our common stock as of April 30, 2026, for (i) each of our named executive officers and directors, (ii) all of our named executive officers and directors as a group, and (iii) each other stockholder known by us to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of our outstanding common stock.

Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with SEC rules and generally includes voting or investment power with respect to securities. For purposes of this table, a person or group of persons is deemed to have “beneficial ownership” of any shares that such person or any member of such group has the right to acquire within sixty (60) days. For purposes of computing the percentage of outstanding shares of our common stock held by each person or group of persons named above, any shares that such person or persons have the right to acquire within sixty (60) days of April 30, 2026, are deemed to be outstanding for such person, but not deemed to be outstanding to compute the percentage ownership of any other person. The inclusion herein of any shares listed as beneficially owned does not constitute an admission of beneficial ownership by any person.

Unless otherwise indicated, the address of each beneficial owner listed in the table below is c/o DeFi Development Corp., 6401 Congress Avenue, Suite 250, Boca Raton, Florida 33487.

Subject to the rights of holders of any series of outstanding Preferred Stock, holders of shares of Common Stock shall have equal rights of participation in the dividends and other distributions in cash, stock or property of the Company when, as and if declared thereon by the Board of Directors from time to time out of assets or funds of the Company legally available therefor and shall have equal rights to receive the assets and funds of the Company available for distribution to stockholders in the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary.

The holders of shares of the Preferred Stock of each series shall be entitled, upon liquidation or dissolution or upon the distribution of the assets of the Corporation, to such preferences, if any, as provided in the resolution or resolutions creating such series of Preferred Stock, and no more, before any distribution of the assets of the Corporation shall be made to the holders of shares of the Common Stock. Whenever the holders of shares of the Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive a preferred distribution and have been paid the full amounts to which they shall be entitled, the holders of shares of the Common Stock shall be entitled to share ratably in all remaining assets of the Corporation.

(D) Designation of Series A Preferred Stock. The Certificate of Designation filed concurrently with these Amended and Restated Articles designating the Series A Preferred stock is annexed hereto.

(E) Exchange of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock.

1. Exchange of Class A Common Stock. Upon the effective time of the filing of this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, each one (1) share of the Corporation’s Class A Common Stock that is issued and outstanding or held by the Corporation as treasury stock immediately prior to the effective time is and shall be exchanged for one (1) fully paid, nonassessable share of Common Stock.

2. Exchange of Class B Common Stock. Upon the effective time of the filing of this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, all 45,000,000 shares of the Corporation’s Class B Common Stock that is issued and outstanding or held by the Corporation as treasury stock immediately prior to the effective time is and shall be exchanged for 45,000,000 fully paid, nonassessable shares of Common Stock and 10,000 shares of the Corporation’s Series A Preferred Stock, created herewith.

(A) Management by Board of Directors. The management of the business and the conduct of the affairs of the Corporation will be vested in its Board of Directors. The number of directors which will constitute the whole Board of Directors will be fixed by the Board of Directors in the manner provided in the Bylaws of the Corporation. Unless and except to the extent that the Bylaws of the Corporation so require, the election of directors of the Corporation need not be by written ballot.

(B) No Cumulative Voting. No person entitled to vote at an election for directors may cumulate votes to which such person is entitled unless required by applicable law at the time of such election. During such time or times that applicable law requires cumulative voting, every stockholder entitled to vote at an election for directors may cumulate such stockholder’s votes and give one candidate a number of votes equal to the number of directors to be elected multiplied by the number of votes to which such stockholder’s shares are otherwise entitled or distribute the stockholder ‘s votes on the same principle among as many candidates as such stockholder desires. No stockholder, however, will be entitled to so cumulate such stockholder’s votes unless (1) the names of such candidate or candidates have been placed in nomination prior to the voting, and (2) the stockholder has given notice at the meeting, prior to

C-4

the voting, of such stockholder’s intention to cumulate such stockholder’s votes. If any stockholder has given proper notice to cumulate votes, all stockholders may cumulate their votes for any candidates who have been properly placed in nomination. Under cumulative voting, the candidates receiving the highest number of votes, up to the number of directors to be elected, are elected.

(C) Removal. Subject to any limitations imposed by applicable law, the Board of Directors or any director may be removed from office at any time, with or without cause, by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of all then-outstanding shares of capital stock of the Corporation entitled to vote generally at an election of directors.

(D) Empowerment Regarding Bylaws. The Board of Directors is expressly empowered to adopt, amend or repeal the Bylaws of the Corporation. The stockholders will also have power to adopt, amend or repeal the Bylaws of the Corporation; provided, however, that, in addition to any vote of the holders of any class or series of stock of the Corporation required by law or by this Certificate of Incorporation, such action by stockholders will require the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the voting power of all of the then-outstanding shares of the capital stock of the Corporation entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, voting together as a single class.

VI.

(A) The personal liability of the directors of the Corporation is hereby eliminated to the fullest extent permitted by the provisions of paragraph (7) of subsection (b) of Section 102 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, as the same may be amended and supplemented. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, a director shall be liable to the extent provided by applicable law (i) for breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to the Corporation, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) pursuant to Section 174 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware or (iv) for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.

(B) The Corporation shall, to the fullest extent permitted by the provisions of Section 145 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, as the same may be amended and supplemented, indemnify any and all persons whom it shall have power to indemnify under said section from and against any and all of the expenses, liabilities, or other matters referred to in or covered by said section, and the indemnification provided for herein shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those indemnified may be entitled under any Bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in such person’s official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office, and shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or agent and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors, and administrators of such person.

(C) The Corporation shall indemnify, and advance expenses to, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any person who was or is a party to or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative by reason of the fact that the person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise.

(D) Limitation on Repeal of Article VI. Any repeal or modification of this Article VI is only prospective and does not affect the rights or protections or increase the liability of any officer or director under this Article VI in effect at the time of the alleged occurrence of any act or omission to act giving rise to liability or indemnification.

VII.

The Corporation reserves the right to amend, alter, change or repeal any provision contained in this Certificate of Incorporation, in the manner now or hereafter prescribed by statute, and all rights conferred upon the stockholders herein are granted subject to this reservation.

C-5

VIII.

Unless the Corporation consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the Court of Chancery in the State of Delaware will be the sole and exclusive forum for any stockholder (including a beneficial owner) to bring (i) any derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of the Corporation, (ii) any action asserting a claim of breach of fiduciary duty owed by any director, officer or other employee of the Corporation to the Corporation or the Corporation’s stockholders, (iii) any action asserting a claim against the Corporation, its directors, officers or employees arising pursuant to any provision of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware or the Corporation’s certificate of incorporation or bylaws, or (iv) any action asserting a claim against the Corporation, its directors, officers or employees governed by the internal affairs doctrine or otherwise related to the Corporation’s internal affairs, except for, as to each of (i) through (iv) above, any claim as to which the Court of Chancery determines that there is an indispensable party not subject to the jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery (and the indispensable party does not consent to the personal jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery within ten days following such determination), which is vested in the exclusive jurisdiction of a court or forum other than the Court of Chancery, or for which the Court of Chancery does not have subject matter jurisdiction. If any provision or provisions of this Article IX is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable as applied to any person or entity or circumstance for any reason whatsoever, then, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the validity, legality and enforceability of such provisions in any other circumstance and of the remaining provisions of this Article IX (including, without limitation, each portion of any sentence of this Article IX containing any such provision held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable that is not itself held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable) and the application of such provision to other persons or entities and circumstances will not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.
