2.1
公司现以书面同意并确认转让确认协议所载四家持有人之间的均分及
Apollo 向其转让标的权证,并在
适用法律允许范围内豁免原认股权证第
5条及原 SPA 第 7.06
条要求事先取得公司书面同意的合同条件。
该确认于交割紧接注销之前生效,
不表示公司曾于 2026 年 4 月 17 日作出同意,
不豁免任何证券法或其他
强制性规定。公司同时同意为本次注销目的对原认股权证第
7 条项下作必要修改和豁免。
2.1 The
Company hereby gives written consent to and confirms the equal allocation among the four Holders and transfers from Apollo stated in
the Transfer Confirmation and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, waives the contractual condition for prior Company written
consent under Section 5 of the Original Warrant and Section 7.06 of the Original SPA. That confirmation becomes effective at Closing
immediately before cancellation; it does not represent consent given on April 17, 2026 or waive securities law or other mandatory requirements.
The Company also consents to the amendments and waivers necessary for this cancellation under Section 7 of the Original Warrant.
2.2
依本协议条件,公司向各持有人支付 500,000 美元,合计

herein. This is the entire transaction consideration, without separate exercise price, premium, interest or fees, except breach remedies
and costs payable under this Agreement or law.
2.3
本交易不发行任何股份, 不构成权证行权,也不回购持有人已经持有的普通股。与既有普通股单独相
关的股东权利及原股份交易付款事项不在本次豁免范围。原
SPA 及其他文件中仅与标的权证有关的公司
义务于交割时终止; 不终止无关交易义务。

transaction issues no shares, constitutes no warrant exercise and does not repurchase ordinary shares already held by a Holder. Shareholder

或联邦法院专属管辖, 各方接受该管辖并放弃不方便法院抗辩。
8.1 New
York law governs without excluding mandatory corporate or securities law. Disputes are subject exclusively to competent state or federal
courts in Manhattan, New York City, to whose jurisdiction each party submits, waiving inconvenient-forum objections.

其利益设立的豁免和赔偿条款。
8.4 This
Agreement and its Schedules constitute the entire repurchase and cancellation agreement and prevail over inconsistent Original Warrant

against whom enforced. No assignment is permitted without the other parties’ written consent. Company Released Persons may directly

unenforceable provision is severed to the necessary extent, with the remainder effective. The parties shall sign reasonably necessary
further documents, but an omitted subsequent document does not impair effective cancellation. Counterparts, electronic signatures and
PDF delivery are permitted and constitute one instrument. English prevails over inconsistent Chinese.

Chaince
Digital Repurchases and Cancels Warrants for US$2.0 Million in Cash
No
Shares Issued; Company Has No Warrants Outstanding Following Cancellation
NEW
YORK, Sept. 24, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Chaince Digital Holdings Inc. (Nasdaq: CD) (“Chaince Digital” or the “Company”)
(formerly Mercurity Fintech Holding Inc.), a digital finance and technology company focused on tokenization, on-chain innovation, and
regulated brokerage services, today announced that it has entered into and closed the transactions under a Warrant Repurchase Cancellation
and Release Agreement (the “Agreement”) with the holders of the warrants issued in its private placement priced on November
30, 2023 (the “Holders”). The Agreement was executed and the transaction closed on September 21, 2026.
Under
the Agreement, the Company repurchased and permanently canceled all of the warrants held by the Holders for aggregate cash consideration
of US$2.0 million. No shares were issued in the transaction, and none of the warrants had been exercised. The Holders also released the
Company and certain related persons from claims arising from the warrants, subject to the exceptions set forth in the Agreement. As a
result of the cancellation, the Company no longer has any contractual obligation to issue or reserve ordinary shares under the warrants,
eliminating the potential dilution associated with them.
Following
the cancellation, the Company has no warrants outstanding.
Shi
Qiu, Chief Executive Officer of Chaince Digital Holdings Inc., commented, “We retired the warrants held by the Holders in full
for a fixed cash payment, without issuing a single new share. We believe the transaction represents a disciplined use of capital, and
that a capitalization with no warrants outstanding is more straightforward for shareholders to evaluate as we continue to execute on
our tokenization, on-chain innovation and regulated brokerage strategy.”
The
foregoing description of the Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text
of the Agreement, which will be filed as an exhibit to a Current Report on Form 8-K to be filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission (the “SEC”) and will be available on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.
This
press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities, nor shall there be any sale
of securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to the registration or qualification
under the securities laws of any such state or jurisdiction.
