Why It Matters

• These approvals clear regulatory/stock exchange (Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635) hurdles for the company to issue millions of shares tied to recent merger and financing transactions — actions that can materially increase the company’s outstanding share count.
• The equity incentive plan increase allows the company to grant more stock‑based awards to employees and consultants, which can affect shareholder dilution over time.
• The name change to United Compute Inc. is a formal step reflecting the company’s strategic combination/branding tied to the April 30, 2026 transactions; investors should note the corporate identity change and monitor related filings for operational or financial updates.
