DeFi Development Corp. Stockholder FAQ – Warrant Dividend Distribution

What is a warrant?

A warrant is an option to buy shares of common shares issued directly by a company. It gives the holder the right, but not the obligation, to purchase a share of common stock at a specified “exercise price”, on or before the warrant’s “expiration date.”

What is a warrant dividend?

A warrant dividend is a distribution of warrants by the company pro-rata to all existing common stockholders. As with a cash dividend, stockholders do not need to pay any amount or take any other action to receive the distribution. In the case of a warrant dividend the value being distributed to all stockholders is in the form of a warrant instead of cash.

Who will receive the warrants?

Holders of DFDV common stock as of the record date of October 23, 2025 (“stockholders”) will receive one (1) warrant for each ten (10) shares of common stock held as of the record date, rounded down to the nearest whole number. As an example, a stockholder who owns 320 or 327 shares of common stock would receive 32 warrants. No fractional warrants will be issued.

Holders of the company’s 5.50% Convertible Senior Notes due 2030 as of the record date (“noteholders”) will also receive warrants on an as-converted pass-through basis in accordance with the terms of the governing indenture. Noteholders of each $1,000 principal amount will receive 4.32694 warrants, rounded down to the nearest whole number for any fractional warrant. No fractional warrants will be issued. Given this pass-through, the warrant distribution will not trigger a further adjustment to the conversion rate for the convertible notes.

When will the warrants be distributed?

On or about October 27, 2025.

When is the expiration date?

January 21, 2028, unless the Alternate Expiration Price Condition is met.

What is the Alternate Expiration Price Condition?

If, during any 30 consecutive trading days, the volume weighted average price (VWAP) of DFDV common stock is at or above $27.00 for at least 20 of those days (not necessarily consecutive), then the warrants will expire early – specifically at 5:00 p.m. New York City time on the business day immediately following the 20^th such day or such other date as the Company may elect in accordance with the warrant agreement.

DFDV will issue a press release if the Alternate Expiration Price Condition is triggered.

What is the exercise price?

$22.50 per share.

Why is DFDV issuing these warrants?

DFDV believes that a warrant dividend distribution is a stockholder-aligned approach to raising additional equity capital that rewards current stockholders and noteholders.  It allows existing DFDV investors to maintain their proportional ownership and participate equally in the company’s future upside, or to monetize their rights by selling the warrants for cash.

DFDV believes the warrants provide the opportunity to raise a meaningful amount of capital in a more cost-efficient manner than traditional equity offerings.  The pricing reflects our confidence in the company’s growth trajectory and our commitment to raise capital in an efficient manner.

What do I have to do to receive the warrants?

We believe that in most cases no action is required if you are a stockholder as of the October 7, 2025 record date and you have not lent out your shares to your broker or other parties. Contact your broker or, to the extent your shares are held in a registered account with DeFi Development Corp.’s transfer agent, contact shareholder services at Colonial Stock Transfer, Inc., for details (email: shareholders@colonialstock.com phone: (801) 355-5740.

Can I sell my warrants? Will they trade publicly?

Except for applicable securities laws and company policies that may apply to insiders, we are not aware of any restrictions on buying or selling the warrants. We intend to apply for the warrants to be listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market to facilitate such trading, which may begin under ticker symbol DFDVW on the first trading day following the distribution date. After the distribution date, DFDV stockholders can trade or exercise the warrants irrespective of whether they continue to hold or sell their shares of DFDV common stock.

When will the warrants begin trading separately on Nasdaq?

We currently expect the warrants to begin trading on Nasdaq on the first trading day after the distribution date, under the ticker symbol DFDVW.

Can I receive a copy of the full warrant agreement?

Yes. DFDV expects to file the full warrant agreement with the SEC on or prior to the distribution date. It will be available via the SEC’s EDGAR system at www.sec.gov and linked on the DFDV Investor Relations page.

Will this dilute my ownership?

There will be no dilution to DFDV stockholders if no warrants are exercised. By the expiration date of January 21, 2028, we expect all warrants will have either expired or been exercised. Since the warrants are being distributed pro-rata to all DFDV stockholders, if a stockholder decides to hold and exercise their warrants to purchase additional shares their percentage ownership of DFDV common stock is not expected to be diluted. On the other hand, if a current DFDV stockholder decides to sell their warrants in the market for cash, they will not be able to exercise and thus their percentage ownership may decline.

If warrants are exercised, what will DeFi Development Corp. use the proceeds for?

General corporate purposes, including the acquisition of SOL and for working capital.

Will the company be receiving any proceeds immediately?

No. DeFi Development Corp. will not receive any proceeds from this warrant distribution unless some or all holders exercise their warrants on or before the expiration date of January 21, 2028.

What happens to my warrants if the share price does not go up above the exercise price?

If you do not sell or exercise your warrants by the expiration date of January 21, 2028, or the early expiration date, if applicable, your warrants will expire. To be clear, you may exercise a warrant at the exercise price even if the market price of DFDV shares does not go above the exercise price, but you may prefer to instead purchase those shares in the market at a lower price.

How does the Alternate Expiration Price Condition work?

If the Alternate Expiration Price Condition is satisfied, the warrants will expire at 5:00 p.m. New York City time on the business day immediately following the Alternate Expiration Price Condition Date (as defined below) or such other date as the Company may elect in accordance with the warrant agreement.

The Alternate Expiration Price Condition will be deemed satisfied if, during any period of twenty (20) out of thirty (30) consecutive trading days, the VWAP of the Company’s common stock equals or exceeds $27.00 (the “Alternate Expiration Trigger Price”) whether or not consecutive (such final day, the “Alternate Expiration Price Condition Date”).

If the Alternate Expiration Price Condition occurs, the Company will make a public announcement to that effect, which will include the corresponding expiration date. Otherwise, as previously disclosed, the warrants will expire at 5:00 pm New York City Time on January 21, 2028.

When does the 20 out of 30-day VWAP measurement period for the Alternate Expiration Price Condition begin?

The 20 out of 30-day VWAP measurement period can begin on the first trading day after the distribution date, as long as there is an effective shelf registration statement relating to the issuance of the shares issuable on exercise of the warrants at such time.  If Company shares are trading above $27.00 on that day and the VWAP meets the threshold, that day counts as the first of the 20 qualifying days within the 30-trading-day window.

If the VWAP Alternate Expiration Price Condition is met, for example, on the 20th qualifying day, when do the warrants expire?

The warrants will expire on the business day immediately following the 20th qualifying trading day within any 30-day period, unless the Company announces an alternate expiration date in accordance with the warrant agreement.

How will I know if the warrants are about to expire?

If the warrants are scheduled to expire, either on the final expiration date or due to early expiration, the Company will issue a public press release announcing the expiration date. This notice will be made available as promptly as practicable and will include the exact date and time by which warrant exercises must be completed.

We encourage shareholders to monitor the Company’s Investor Relations website (https://defidevcorp.com/investor) for news announcements and updates, as well as our filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) at www.sec.gov.

When can I exercise my warrants?

You may exercise your warrants at any time from the distribution date until the expiration date (or until any earlier deadline applied by your broker), subject to certain limited exceptions included in the warrant agreement and assuming we have filed a registration statement, including a prospectus or prospectus supplement relating to the exercise as described below on or before the distribution date, and that registration statement has become effective.

How do I exercise the warrants?

To exercise the warrants, you must have funds available to pay the exercise price in cash. You should discuss with your broker its procedures and timeline for effecting exercise on your behalf, because your broker may require you to give notice using a particular method and may require an earlier deadline than close of business on the expiration date.

I own my DeFi Development Corp. shares in an online brokerage account. How will I receive my warrants so I can exercise or sell them?

We believe that your broker will be responsible for crediting your account with warrants if you hold shares as of the record date and such shares are not being rehypothecated or loaned out. If your shares are being rehypothecated or loaned out, other mechanics may apply. In all cases you would need to contact your broker directly for confirmation and any other information regarding timing and access to warrants, including the mechanics for warrant sales and exercises.

What’s the last day I can buy DeFi Development Corp. shares and still receive the warrants?

We believe that in most cases you must purchase DFDV shares no later than close of trading on October 22, 2025 in order to receive the warrant dividend. Purchases made on or before October 22, 2025 would normally settle in time for you to be a holder at close of business on October 23, 2025 and thus be eligible to receive warrants.

If you buy shares on October 23, 2025 or later, you will not receive any warrants. In other words, October 22, 2025 is the expected ex-dividend date—the first trading day on which DFDV shares no longer carry the right to receive the warrants that will be distributed on or around October 27, 2025.

How do I exercise the warrants?

You can exercise the warrants through your broker (if held in “street name”) or through the warrant agent, Colonial Stock Transfer, Inc., if you are a registered holder. Settlement will occur as soon as commercially practicable after your broker or Colonial processes the exercise. Please refer to the warrant agreement, including the section relating to “exercise terms” and the form of election to purchase warrant shares exhibit to the warrant agreement, which will be filed with the SEC together with the Form 8-A to register the warrants, at or prior to the distribution date.

What if I hold a number of DFDV shares that isn’t a multiple of 10?

The distribution of warrants is at a rate of 0.1 warrants for every share of common stock, rounded down to the nearest whole number of warrants. In practice each broker may round down the number of warrants deliverable to each account, without aggregating multiple accounts that you maintain with them. For example, if you hold 19 shares in one account with a broker and hold 14 shares in another account with the same broker, the broker may deliver only 1 warrant to each account, for a total distribution of only 2 warrants despite your ownership of 32 shares across both accounts.

Do non-U.S. stockholders qualify to receive the warrant dividend?

We are not aware of any restrictions on international stockholders receiving warrants if they hold DFDV common stock as of the record date. Tax treatment may vary based on a stockholder’s tax domicile as well as other factors, so both U.S. and non-U.S. stockholders should seek tax advice (see below). If you are a non-U.S. stockholder, you should contact your broker for jurisdiction-specific logistics, including with regard to warrant sales and exercises.

How are the warrants handled for shares held in a retirement brokerage account?

While we expect that in some cases warrants will be credited to your retirement brokerage account if you hold shares as of the October 23, 2025 record date, exercising or selling warrants from within a retirement account may be subject to additional rules or restrictions, and we recommend that you discuss with your retirement broker, advisor and/or administrator, as applicable.

What happens if I hold my DFDV shares in a margin account and the shares are on loan as of the October 23, 2025 record date?

If your DFDV shares are in a margin account, your broker may loan out your shares often without notifying you. This is standard practice for margin accounts. If your shares are loaned out at the time of the warrant dividend record date, you are not considered the stockholder of record for purposes of receiving the warrant dividend and will not receive any warrants directly from DFDV.

If your broker has loaned out your shares, instead of receiving actual warrants from DFDV, your broker may instead post a placeholder entry in your account called an “in lieu of” credit. This “in lieu of” warrant credit does not represent an exercisable warrant and you will not be able to exercise or trade your warrant entry unless your broker takes steps to obtain the actual warrants for you, which is not guaranteed.

How do I ensure I receive the actual exercisable DFDV warrants if I have a margin account?

Transfer your shares from a margin account to a cash account (or a fully paid-for account) before the October 23, 2025 record date of the warrant dividend and confirm with your broker that your shares will be held in your name and not subject to lending or rehypothecation. Processing time varies by broker.

For U.S. taxpayers, how will the warrant distribution and/or exercise be treated for tax purposes?

The U.S. federal income tax treatment of the warrant distribution, and any future exercise of the warrants, may vary based on an investor’s specific circumstances. DeFi Development Corp. does not provide tax advice. Regardless of tax domicile, all investors are encouraged to consult their tax advisor regarding the potential impact of the distribution, and to read the tax reporting section of the prospectus supplement, which DeFi Development Corp. expects to file with the SEC on the distribution date.
