The specific terms of the\nproposed transaction, including the proposed special stock dividend mechanism,\nremain subject to diligence, definitive agreements and approval by Special\nCommittee.\n\nFFR Targets a Top-Three EAI Robotics Ecosystem Ranking Over the Next Five\nYears\n\nFFR believes the robotics business is a compelling, asset-light operating\nbusiness that generates revenue and continues to grow, with positive product\ngross margins, a clear growth path, relatively modest aggregate funding needs\nto reach profitability and growing operating cash inflows.\n\nFFR can leverage its publicly listed platform and independent financing\ncapabilities to transform from a platform whose valuation is driven primarily\nby fluctuations in external asset prices into a publicly traded operating\ncompany centered on an emerging-industry real-economy business. The Company's\ncapital efficiency and business growth can be more clearly tracked, while the\ntransparency and quality of its financial reporting can also improve. With\nresources fully concentrated on the robotics strategy, changes in the\noperating environment may reshape the financing rationale, deal terms, and\ncost of capital. Improvements in financing may, in turn, accelerate business\ndevelopment, creating a positive cycle in which value creation and financing\noptimization reinforce one another.\n\nFFR will continue to advance definitive agreements, financing arrangements,\nand transaction closing in an orderly manner. Upon completion of the proposed\ntransaction, FFR expects to announce its next-stage strategy and business\nplan.\n\nManagement Conference Call\n\nFFR will host a conference call and webcast to discuss the proposed\ntransaction, its strategic rationale, expected financial and operational\nbenefits, and long-term growth plans.

The data business is expected to grow rapidly, with\ncumulative five-year data supply exceeding 19 million hours, supporting the\ncontinued optimization of the EAI Brain and advancement of its computing\ncapabilities.\n\nThese projections were prepared by FFAI management for the FF EAI Robotics\nbusiness on a standalone basis. They have not been adopted as Company guidance\nby FFR, are subject to change and may differ materially from actual results.\n\nPotential Special Stock Dividend of $2.246 Provides Direct Benefit to Existing\nStockholders\n\nUnder the non-binding term sheet, the proposed per-share price would be the\nlower of $2.246 or the five-day average closing price prior to signing. If the\nper-share price is below $2.246 at signing, FFR would declare a one-time\nspecial stock dividend to holders of record prior to closing, to make up the\ntotal equity value to $2.246 per share. The dividend would be payable only\nupon closing and remains subject to tax analysis. The specific terms of the\nproposed transaction, including the proposed special stock dividend mechanism,\nremain subject to diligence, definitive agreements and approval by Special\nCommittee.\n\nFFR Targets a Top-Three EAI Robotics Ecosystem Ranking Over the Next Five\nYears\n\nFFR believes the robotics business is a compelling, asset-light operating\nbusiness that generates revenue and continues to grow, with positive product\ngross margins, a clear growth path, relatively modest aggregate funding needs\nto reach profitability and growing operating cash inflows.\n\nFFR can leverage its publicly listed platform and independent financing\ncapabilities to transform from a platform whose valuation is driven primarily\nby fluctuations in external asset prices into a publicly traded operating\ncompany centered on an emerging-industry real-economy business. The Company's\ncapital efficiency and business growth can be more clearly tracked, while the\ntransparency and quality of its financial reporting can also improve. With\nresources fully concentrated on the robotics strategy, changes in the\noperating environment may reshape the financing rationale, deal terms, and\ncost of capital. Improvements in financing may, in turn, accelerate business\ndevelopment, creating a positive cycle in which value creation and financing\noptimization reinforce one another.\n\nFFR will continue to advance definitive agreements, financing arrangements,\nand transaction closing in an orderly manner. Upon completion of the proposed\ntransaction, FFR expects to announce its next-stage strategy and business\nplan.\n\nManagement Conference Call\n\nFFR will host a conference call and webcast to discuss the proposed\ntransaction, its strategic rationale, expected financial and operational\nbenefits, and long-term growth plans. Executives from both organizations will\nprovide additional details regarding the transaction, followed by a\nquestion-and-answer session.\n\nDate: September 29, 2026\nTime: 8:30 a.m. ET / 5:30 a.m. PT\nDial-In: 1-877-407-9716 or 1-201-493-6779\nParticipant Link:\nhttps://callme.viavid.com/viavid/?callme=true&passcode=13759533&h=true&info=company&r=true&B=6\n(https://callme.viavid.com/viavid/?callme=true&passcode=13759533&h=true&info=company&r=true&B=6)\n\nTelephone Replay\n\nReplay Dial-In: 1-844-512-2921 or 1-412-317-6671\nAccess ID: 13762866\n\nAbout FF EAI Robotics Ecosystem Inc.\n\nFF EAI Robotics Ecosystem Inc.

Upon completion of the\nacquisition, the Company will focus on the research and development,\nmanufacturing, commercialization, and deployment of intelligent robotic\ntechnologies, products, and industry solutions.\n\nThe Company is committed to building a \"Four-Core Full-Stack\" AI ecosystem\ncovering the full lifecycle of robotics, consisting of EAI Brain &\nDeveloper Platform, EAI Devices, Industry Productivity Solutions, and EAI Data\nFactory. Guided by the technology and product philosophy of \"One Brain,\nMulti-forms, Multi-capabilities,\" the Company aims to empower humanoid,\nbiomimetic, and other robotic form factors through a unified EAI Brain, while\ncontinuously expanding their multi-task and multi-scenario capabilities. The\necosystem is designed to support the full robotics lifecycle, including\nR&D, deployment, data collection and training, operations, and commercial\napplications.\n\nThe FF EAI Robotics business has already achieved commercial deliveries of\nhumanoid and biomimetic robotic products. Through its multi-form-factor\nrobotic products, EAI technology platform, closed-loop data capabilities, and\nindustry solutions, the business continues to advance the scaled adoption of\nrobotics across real-world applications. The Company also operates RoboShare,\na robot-sharing and services platform designed to connect robotic assets,\nservice capabilities, customer demand, and ecosystem partners, further\nstrengthening its robotics commercialization and service ecosystem.\n\nFor more information, visit www.ff.com (http://www.ff.com/) .\n\nForward-Looking Statements\n\nThis communication, including any presentation, press release, investor\nmaterials or other document of which it forms a part (this \"Communication\"),\ncontains \"forward-looking statements\" within the meaning of the \"safe harbor\"\nprovisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, as\namended, and other securities laws, regarding AIxCrypto Holdings, Inc.\n(\"AIxCrypto,\" the \"Company,\" \"us,\" \"our,\" or \"we\") and our industry.
