Introductory Note

As previously publicly disclosed, on May 9, 2025, Gryphon Digital Mining, Inc. (the “Company”), GDM Merger Sub I Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned direct subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub Inc.”), GDM Merger Sub II LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly owned direct subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub LLC”), and American Bitcoin Corp., a Delaware corporation (“ABTC”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), pursuant to which, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, (i) Merger Sub Inc. will merge with and into ABTC, with ABTC surviving the merger (the “First Merger”) as a wholly owned direct subsidiary of the Company (the corporation surviving the First Merger, the “First Merger Surviving Corporation”) and (ii) immediately after the First Merger, the First Merger Surviving Corporation will merge with and into Merger Sub LLC, with Merger Sub LLC surviving the merger as a wholly owned direct subsidiary of the Company (the “Second Merger” and, together with the First Merger, the “Mergers”). The Company following the Mergers is referred to below as the “Combined Company.”

In connection with the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, the Company held a special meeting of stockholders (the “Special Meeting”) on August 27, 2025.

Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers

At the Special Meeting, among other things, the Company’s stockholders approved the Amended and Restated American Bitcoin Corp. 2025 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “2025 Plan”). The 2025 Plan will become effective as of the closing of the Mergers and permits grants of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance awards and other stock-based awards to employees and certain consultants of the Combined Company and its subsidiaries and certain of its affiliates and to members of the Board of Directors of the Combined Company (the “Combined Company Board”).

Subject to adjustment upon certain changes in the Combined Company’s capitalization and the automatic increase (described below), the total number of shares reserved and available for issuance pursuant to the 2025 Plan (the “Share Reserve”) will not exceed 20% of the total number of issued and outstanding fully diluted shares of Combined Company common stock as of the closing of the Mergers. The Share Reserve will automatically increase on January 1st of each year, for a period of not more than ten years, commencing on January 1, 2026 and ending on (and including) January 1, 2035 by the lesser of (a) a number of shares of Combined Company common stock equal to the excess of (i) 20% of the number of issued and outstanding fully diluted shares of Combined Company common stock on December 31 of the immediately preceding calendar year over (ii) the number of shares of Combined Company common stock then reserved for issuance under the 2025 Plan as of such date and (b) such number of shares of Combined Company common stock determined by the Combined Company Board.

The 2025 Plan will expire on tenth anniversary of its effective date, unless terminated sooner by the Combined Company Board or its delegate.

A summary of the 2025 Plan is provided in the Company’s definitive proxy statement/prospectus, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 31, 2025 (the “Definitive Proxy Statement/Prospectus”), and is incorporated herein by reference. That summary and the foregoing description of the 2025 Plan do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by the full text of the 2025 Plan, which is attached as Annex G to the Definitive Proxy Statement/Prospectus.

Item 5.07 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders
