The source of the purchase price for the Common Stock reported on this Schedule 13D as beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons was working capital available for investment from Project Nickel.

As disclosed in the Issuer's Form 8-K filed on September 14, 2022, the Issuer and Project Nickel entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the "SPA") on September 12, 2022. Pursuant to the SPA, Project Nickel provided $1,335,000 in funding to the Issuer, and in exchange, the Issuer issued to Project Nickel: (i) an Original Issue Discount Secured Convertible Promissory Note in the principal amount of $1,500,000, bearing interest at a rate of 6% per annum and maturing on December 31, 2023 (the "2022 Note"); and (ii) Series X, Series Y, and Series Z warrants (collectively, the "Warrants"). The 2022 Note was convertible into 30% of the Issuer's outstanding Common Stock on a post-conversion basis as of the date of conversion (the "Conversion Shares"). Each series of Warrants was exercisable for a number of shares equal to 60% of the Conversion Shares, with exercise prices as follows: (i) for the Series X Warrants, the lower of $0.02 and 120% of the closing price of the Common Stock on the date of exercise; (ii) for the Series Y Warrants, the lower of $0.05 and 150% of the closing price on the date of exercise; and (iii) for the Series Z Warrants, the lower of $0.06 and 200% of the closing price on the date of exercise. Both the 2022 Note and the Warrants were subject to a contractual beneficial ownership blocker provision, which limited Project Nickel's ability to convert or exercise such securities to the extent that doing so would result in beneficial ownership exceeding a specified threshold. As disclosed in the Issuer's Form 8-K filed on December 20, 2023, the Issuer a nd Project Nickel entered into an agreement on December 19, 2023, pursuant to which the parties agreed to exchange the 2022 Note for a new note with substantially similar terms, except that (i) the maturity date was extended to December 31, 2024, and (ii) the conversion feature was modified to permit conversion into 40% of the Issuer's outstanding Common Stock on a post-conversion basis (the "2023 Note"). As disclosed in the Issuer's Form 8-K filed on November 4, 2024, the Issuer and Project Nickel entered into three separate agreements on November 1, 2024: (i) a Convertible Note Exchange Agreement (the "Convertible Note Exchange Agreement"); (ii) a Warrant Exchange and Extinguishment Agreement (the "Warrant Exchange and Extinguishment Agreement"); and (iii) a Promissory Note Exchange Agreement (the "Promissory Note Exchange Agreement"). Pursuant to the Convertible Note Exchange Agreement, Project Nickel agreed to exchange the 2023 Note for: (i) a new Secured Exchange Note with a principal amount of $1,620,240, bearing interest at 8% per annum and maturing on December 31, 2025 (the "2024 Note"); and (ii) 750,000,000 shares of Common Stock. Under the Warrant Exchange and Extinguishment Agreement, Project Nickel agreed to extinguish all outstanding Series X, Y, and Z Warrants in exchange for: (i) 600,000,000 shares of Common Stock, and (ii) 650,000 shares of the Issuer's Series D Preferred Stock, each of which is convertible at any time into 1,000 shares of Common Stock. As of November 1, 2024, the Issuer owed Project Nickel an aggregate default principal amount of $241,590 under promissory notes issued on November 20, 2023 ($25,000), March 6, 2024 ($125,000), and April 30, 2024 ($50,000) (collectively, the "Promissory Notes"). Pursuant to the Promissory Note Exchange Agreement, Project Nickel agreed to consolidate and exchange the Promissory Notes for a new consolidated promissory note with a principal amount of $241,590, bearing interest at 8% per annum and maturing on December 31, 2025 (the "New Promissory Note"). On September 22, 2025, the Issuer and Project Nickel entered into a Secured Exchange Note Exchange Agreement (the "2025 Exchange Agreement"), pursuant to which Project Nickel agreed to exchange the 2024 Note, then outstanding with a principal balance of $1,220,240, for: (i) a new secured convertible promissory note with a principal amount of $1,220,240, bearing interest at 8% per annum and maturing on December 31, 2027 (the "2025 Note"); and (ii) 500,000,000 newly-issued shares of Common Stock. The 2025 Note is convertible into shares of Common Stock at a price of $0.001 per share, adjusted for any stock splits. Additionally, on September 22, 2025, the 650,000 shares of Series D Preferred Stock held by Project Nickel were converted into 650,000,000 shares of Common Stock, in accordance with the applicable conversion terms. For purposes of this Schedule 13D, the 2022 Note, 2023 Note, 2024 Note, 2025 Note, the Promissory Notes, and the New Promissory Note are collectively referred to herein as the "Notes." DAXvest and Mr. Kittrell do not directly own any shares of Common Stock but are deemed to beneficially own the Common Stock held by Project Nickel. Each of DAXvest and Mr. Kittrell disclaims beneficial ownership of such securities except to the extent of their respective pecuniary interests therein.
