• Stockholder Vote on Share Issuance

  The company is seeking stockholder approval to issue shares in excess of a 19.99% cap related to the acquisition of TCDC, as required by Nasdaq rules 5635(a) and 5635(b).

• Acquisition of TCDC Interests

  On January 16, 2026, the company acquired SharonAI, Inc.'s equity interests in Texas Critical Data Centers LLC (TCDC) for $70 million, paid via cash, equity securities, and a $50 million convertible note.

• Potential for Substantial Dilution

  If approved, the issuance of shares for the acquisition consideration, particularly if the convertible note and equity payment are made in shares at lower prices, could result in over 40% dilution to current stockholders.

• Liquidity Risk if Approval Denied

  If stockholders do not approve the excess share issuance, the company would be required to pay the remaining acquisition consideration in cash, potentially straining liquidity, requiring additional funding, or risking default on the convertible note.

New ERA Energy & Digital is seeking stockholder approval to issue shares exceeding a 19.99% cap for its January 16, 2026 acquisition of Texas Critical Data Centers LLC (TCDC). The acquisition involved a $70 million purchase price, including a $50 million convertible note and a $10 million equity payment. If stockholders do not approve the issuance of these 'Excess Shares,' the company would be required to pay the remaining acquisition consideration in cash. This could necessitate raising additional funding, which may not be available on acceptable terms, potentially leading to a default on the convertible note and diverting liquidity from the TCDC data center project. Conversely, if approved, the issuance of these shares, which could amount to over 40% of current outstanding shares at the conversion floor price, would cause substantial dilution to existing stockholders. This vote is critical for the company's financing strategy and liquidity.
