Item

8.01 Other Events.

previously reported in its Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2024, the Company made several transactions in digital currency

in the total amount of approximately $3.25 million. In connection with the transactions, the Company believes that it was fraudulently

induced to hold its digital currency with a custodian whom the Company believed to be valid but no longer exists. As a result of the

digital currency transactions, the Company was a victim of a cyber phishing scam that defrauded the Company and recorded a complete loss

from the investment in digital assets of approximately $3,200,000.

response to the digital currency incident, the Company’s Board of Directors formed a special committee consisting of independent

directors who engaged outside counsel to conduct an extensive internal and external investigation. As a result of the special committee

investigation, management identified material weaknesses in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting and adopted

broader corrective actions and governance and internal control enhancements, including requiring dual authorization on all ACH payments

and bank wires and appropriate approval hierarchy, including Board special committee approval on material transactions and agreements

or any investment of Company funds over a threshold amount. Following the investigation, the Company also determined that the digital

currency loss resulted from an isolated incident, and it did not identify any evidence that any current or former director, officer,

or employee personally benefitted from, participated in, or knowingly facilitated the fraudulent scheme.

addition, as previously reported, the Company received a letter dated October 31, 2024, from a securities class action law firm representing

a single shareholder (“Shareholder”) demanding that the Company’s Board of Directors take action against current and/or

former officers and directors of the Company at the time of the digital currency transactions asserting violations of fiduciary duties

of good faith, loyalty and due care in connection with the digital currency investment. With the assistance of outside counsel, the special

committee reviewed the letter and prepared a response thereto. Through their respective law firms, the Company and Shareholder then exchanged

correspondence, and, until recently, the last of which occurred on February 12, 2025. The underlying events discussed in the correspondence

were previously disclosed in the Company’s SEC filings beginning in May 2024.

June 2026, more than two years after the digital currency investment loss was investigated and reported, and the above-described remedial

measures undertaken, the Company received follow-up correspondence from the Shareholder’s law firm indicting that the Shareholder

intends to file a derivative complaint in District Court Washoe County, Nevada against the Company, the then directors, and certain of

its current officers (collectively “Individual Defendants”) and attached a draft complaint. The threatened claims relate

to the same above-described digital currency events previously investigated, disclosed, and remediated by the Company in 2024. In the

draft complaint, the Shareholder alleges that the Individual Defendants breached their fiduciary duties, abused their control, and engaged

in other alleged related misconduct in connection with the digital currency investment. The draft complaint also seeks various forms

of monetary and equitable relief, including restitution, attorney’s fees, and corporate governance demands. The draft complaint

contains allegations only. No lawsuit has been filed, no court has ruled on the merits of any claim, and the Company disputes both the

allegations and legal conclusions contained in the draft complaint.

this time and based on current information, the Company and the Individual Defendants intend to vigorously defend themselves if the draft

complaint is filed in Nevada, as they believe the threatened lawsuit is without legal or factual merit. The Company also does not believe

based on current information that this proposed lawsuit will have material adverse effect on its business, operations or financial condition.

No assurance can be given, however, that additional causes of action may be brought when or if the actual complaint is filed or that

new or additional facts may arise that may change the Company’s view on the proposed complaint. Because no complaint has been filed,

the Company cannot predict the ultimate outcome or timing of any litigation.
