PROXY STATEMENT

FOR THE ANNUAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS

to be held on August 28, 2026

The Board of Directors (the "Board") of Sui Group Holdings Limited (formerly known as Mill City Ventures III, Ltd.) (the "Company") has called an annual meeting in conformity with Minnesota Statutes, Section 302A.431, and the requirements of the Nasdaq Listing Rules. The purpose of the annual meeting is to consider and vote on whether:

	1.	To elect six members of the Board of Directors of the Company to hold office until the next annual meeting or until their successors are duly elected and qualified ("Proposal 1" or the "Election of Directors Proposal");
	2.	To approve the reincorporation and change in the Company's legal state of incorporation from Minnesota to Delaware, through a statutory conversion ("Proposal 2" or the "Delaware Company Proposal");
	3.	To approve, on a non-binding advisory basis, the compensation of the Company's executive officers as disclosed in this proxy statement ("Proposal 3" or the "Advisory Proposal");
	4.	To approve one or more adjournments of the annual meeting to a later date or dates to solicit additional proxies if there are insufficient votes to approve any one or more of the proposals at the time of the annual meeting ("Proposal 4" or the "Adjournment Proposal"); and
	5.	To transact any other business as may properly come before the annual meeting or any adjournments thereof.

VOTING

The presence, in person or by proxy, of the holders of one-third of the total number of outstanding shares of common stock entitled to vote constitutes a quorum for the transaction of business at the meeting. Votes cast by proxy, in person or virtually at the meeting will be tabulated by the election inspector appointed for the meeting, and that inspector will determine whether a quorum is present. If a quorum is present, then:

	·	for Proposal 1, those nominees receiving a plurality of the "For" votes (i.e., the most votes) cast by the holders of shares entitled to vote and present in person or by proxy will be elected;
	·	for Proposal 2, the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of the shares outstanding and entitled to vote is required to approve the proposal (i.e., an absolute majority);
	·	for Proposal 3, the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of the shares present and entitled to vote is required to approve the non-binding advisory proposal (i.e., a majority of shares present at the meeting); and
	·	for Proposal 4, the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of the shares present and entitled to vote is required to approve the proposal (i.e., a majority of shares present at the meeting).

Under applicable rules of the New York Stock Exchange, or NYSE, relating to the discretionary voting of proxies by brokers, banks and other securities intermediaries that are subject to NYSE rules, such brokers, banks and other securities intermediaries may use their discretion to vote their "uninstructed" shares with respect to matters considered to be "routine" under NYSE rules, but not with respect to "non-routine" matters, including the election of directors, without instructions from the beneficial owner. None of the proposals for consideration at our annual meeting are "routine" matters under NYSE rules. Accordingly, we advise all street name holders of shares held in brokerage accounts that if they do not timely provide instructions to their broker, bank or other securities intermediary with respect to any particular proposal, their shares will not be voted in connection with that proposal. If a quorum is already present, then a broker non-vote with respect to Proposal 1 will have no effect on the outcome of that proposal; a broker non-vote with respect to Proposal 2, Proposal 3 or Proposal 4 will be equivalent to a vote AGAINST that proposal. Because NYSE rules relating to discretionary voting by brokers apply to all brokers that are members of the NYSE, the prohibition on discretionary voting applies to our annual meeting even though the Company's common stock is listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market and is not listed on the New York Stock Exchange.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT THESE PROXY MATERIALS AND VOTING

Why am I receiving this proxy statement?

This proxy statement contains information relating to the solicitation of proxies for use at our annual meeting to be held at 8:30 a.m., local time, on August 28, 2026, at our offices located at 1907 Wayzata Boulevard, Suite 205, Wayzata MN 55391, for the purpose stated in the Notice of Annual Meeting of Shareholders. We, the Company, are making this solicitation. The annual meeting can also be attended virtually by registering at https://web.viewproxy.com/SUIG/2026.

Who is entitled to vote at the annual meeting?

Only holders of record of our common stock at the close of business on July 8, 2026, the record date for the annual meeting (the "Record Date"), are entitled to receive notice of and to vote at the annual meeting or any adjournment or postponement of the annual meeting.

What are the voting rights of shareholders?

Each share of common stock outstanding on the record date entitles its holder to cast one vote on each matter to be voted upon.

Who can attend the annual meeting?

Only holders of our common stock at the close of business on the Record Date for the annual meeting, or their duly appointed proxies, are entitled to attend the annual meeting. If you hold your shares in "street name" (that is, through a bank, broker or other nominee), you will need to bring either a copy of the brokerage statement reflecting your stock ownership as of the record date or a legal proxy from your bank or broker. If you are neither a shareholder nor a street name holder, you may request permission to attend the meeting in person by emailing us at [email protected].

To expedite the admission process, we strongly encourage all shareholders and others wishing to attend the annual meeting to pre-register by submitting their attendance request and proof of ownership to us at by email at [email protected]. Pre-registration requests will be processed in the order in which they are received and must be received no later than August 23, 2026.

Can I attend the annual meeting and vote virtually or remotely?

Yes. You may attend and participate in the annual meeting, and vote, virtually. The meeting will be conducted via live audio webcast to enable our shareholders to participate from any location around the world that is convenient to them. You will be able to attend the meeting virtually by first registering at https://web.viewproxy.com/SUIG/2026. After registering, you will receive a meeting invitation by e-mail with your unique join link prior to the meeting date. Shareholders participating virtually will be able to listen and vote at the meeting virtually. All registrations to attend the meeting virtually must be received by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on August 23, 2026.

If you are a registered or beneficial holder, then during the registration process, if you indicated that you will be voting at the meeting, once your registration is approved, an e-mail will be sent to you that will contain your virtual control number. You will not need the virtual control number to join the meeting, but you will need it if you choose to vote virtually during the meeting.

If you hold your shares beneficially through a bank or broker, you must provide a legal proxy from your bank or broker during registration and you will be assigned a virtual control number in order to vote your shares during the meeting. If you are unable to obtain a legal proxy to vote your shares, you will still be able to attend the meeting (but will not be able to vote your shares) so long as you demonstrate proof of stock ownership. Instructions on how to connect and participate via the Internet, including how to demonstrate proof of stock ownership, are posted at https://web.viewproxy.com/SUIG/2026. On the day of the meeting, you may only vote during the meeting by e-mailing a copy of your legal proxy to [email protected] in advance of the meeting.

We have created and implemented the virtual format in order to facilitate shareholder attendance and participation by enabling shareholders to participate fully, and equally, from any location around the world, at no cost. Nevertheless, you will bear any costs associated with your Internet access, such as usage charges from Internet access providers and telephone companies.

If you have already voted your shares via the Internet, phone, or mail, and you wish to change your vote, you may do so at the meeting by voting virtually just as you would if you were attending the meeting in person. Your attendance at the virtual meeting will not automatically revoke your proxy vote. You must actively vote virtually during the meeting to change your vote.

The use of cameras, video and audio recording devices, and other electronic devices at the annual meeting is prohibited. We realize that most cellular phones have built-in cameras and recording functions, and while you may bring these phones into the meeting, you may not use the camera or recording functions at any time.

Shareholders in attendance, either in person or virtually, may submit a question for the question-and-answer session that will immediately follow the business portion of the meeting. To promote fairness and efficiency, only one question may be asked per shareholder, and questions must be submitted in advance, on or prior to the close of business on August 23, 2026, to: [email protected]. Questions will be limited to topics relevant to our business. In addition, statements of advocacy that are not questions or that do not relate to our business will not be addressed. Our Chief Executive Officer, Chairman, or other person presiding at the meeting has authority to create additional rules of conduct when deemed appropriate, as well as the authority to rule questions, statements or proposals as out of order.

What will constitute a quorum at the annual meeting?

The presence at the annual meeting, in person or by proxy, of one-third of the voting power of the shares of common stock outstanding at the close of business on the Record Date (i.e., July 8, 2026), will constitute a quorum permitting our shareholders to conduct business at the annual meeting. We will include abstentions in the number of shares of common stock present at the annual meeting for purposes of determining a quorum. As of the record date, there were 74,957,862 shares of our common stock outstanding.

How do I vote my shares of common stock that are held by my bank, broker or other nominee?

If you hold any or all of your shares of common stock through a bank, broker or other nominee, you should follow the voting instructions provided to you by the bank, broker or nominee. Specific voting procedures relating to your shares of common stock held through a bank, broker or other nominee will depend on their particular voting arrangements and procedures.

How do I vote?

If you are a holder of record of our common stock, then you or your duly authorized agent may vote by:

	·	completing and returning the accompanying proxy card
	·	visiting www.annualgeneralmeetings.com/suig2026 to cast your vote on the Internet, or
	·	attending the annual meeting and voting in person.

If you are voting online, you will need the unique control number printed on your proxy card. For Proposal 1, you may either vote "For" all the nominees to the Board of Directors or you may "Withhold" your votes for any nominee you specify.

May I change my vote after I return my proxy card?

Yes. You may revoke a previously granted proxy, at any time on or prior to the close of business on August 23, 2026, by submitting to our Chief Financial Officer, Mr. Joseph A. Geraci II, at 1907 Wayzata Boulevard, Suite 205, Wayzata MN 55391, a notice of revocation or a duly executed proxy bearing a later date. You may also revoke a previously granted proxy by attending the annual meeting and voting in person, or by attending the meeting virtually and voting virtually. If your shares are held by your broker or bank as a nominee or agent, you should follow the instructions provided by your broker or bank.

How does the Board of Directors recommend that shareholders vote on the proposals?

The Board recommends a vote "FOR" the election of each of the nominees named in Proposal 1 and votes "FOR" the approval of Proposals 2 and 3.

Who pays the costs of soliciting proxies?

We will pay the costs of soliciting proxies. Presently, we do not anticipate that we will solicit proxies by any means other than mail. We expect that banks, brokers, fiduciaries, custodians and nominees will forward proxy soliciting materials to their principals and that we will reimburse such persons' out-of-pocket expenses.

How can I determine the results of the voting at the annual meeting?

Preliminary voting results will be announced at the annual meeting, if available. Final results will be reported on a Form 8-K filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission within four business days of the date of the annual meeting.

Table of Contents

Kristina Campbell was appointed to the Board of the Company effective July 6, 2026. Ms. Campbell brings over 20 years of experience in the fintech, digital payments, and digital asset sectors. Her principal occupation and employment during the past five years included serving as Chief Financial Officer (CFO) for high-growth technology companies, including Ripple Labs (digital asset and payments technology), PayNearMe (digital payment solutions), and Wrapbook (a payroll and spend management platform). In these CFO roles, she had direct oversight of accounting, financial planning and analysis (FP&A), tax, treasury, risk and compliance, and external audits. Notably, as CFO of Ripple, she was responsible for building the company's first formal financial risk function, implementing treasury governance covering both the company's fiat treasury and its XRP treasury (tens of billions of token), and leading engagement with auditors on the evolving accounting treatment for digital assets. None of these organizations are a parent, subsidiary, or other affiliate of the Company. Ms. Campbell has held no other directorships in any company with a class of securities registered under Section 12 of the Exchange Act or subject to the requirements of Section 15(d) of such Act during the past five years.

Under our bylaws, directors serve for annual terms expiring upon the next annual meeting of our shareholders.

When considering whether directors and nominees have the experience, qualifications, attributes and skills to enable the Board to satisfy its oversight responsibilities effectively in light of our business and structure, the Board focuses primarily on the industry and transactional experience, in addition to any unique skills or attributes associated with a director. With regard to Mr. Polinsky, the Board considered his significant experience, expertise and background with the Company. With regard to Mr. Liszt, the Board considered his experience on other boards of public companies, his past experience in the communications and advertising fields, and his organizational experience. With regard to Mr. Barnett, the Board considered his expertise in cryptocurrency, investing, board membership and venture capital. With regard to Mr. Wagner, the Board considered his experience in the cryptocurrency industry and senior legal positions in various companies and the U.S. federal government. With regard to Mr. Quintenz, the Board considered his extensive financial, crypto and regulatory knowledge and experience. Finally, with regard to Ms. Campbell, the Board considered her financial, crypto, regulatory, and enterprise risk management knowledge and experience.

The Board has determined that four of our directors-Messrs. Liszt, Wagner and Quintenz and Ms. Campbell-qualify as independent directors in accordance with the published listing requirements of the Nasdaq Capital Market. The Nasdaq independence definition includes a series of objective tests, such as that the director is not, and has not been, for at least three years, one of our employees and that neither the director, nor any of his family members has engaged in various types of business dealings with us. In addition, the Board has made a subjective determination as to each director that no relationships exist which, in the opinion of the Board, would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director.

The Board recommends that you vote "FOR" the election of each director-nominee named above.

INFORMATION REGARDING THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

AND CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

Board Leadership Structure and Role in Risk Oversight

The positions of our Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board are not held by the same person. Mr. Barnett serves as the Chairman of the Board. Mr. Polinsky serves as our Chief Executive Officer. The Board believes that separating these positions is in the best interests of the Company. The Board also believes that the current structure effectively supports the oversight and governance of the Company. Mr. Polinsky, our Chief Executive Officer, is the only employee-director and does not hold a formal leadership role on the Board. The Board has determined in its judgment that the Company benefits from the unique experience and perspective of Mr. Polinsky, stemming from his involvement in the founding of the Company. The Board further believes that this leadership structure is appropriately balanced by the significant experience and independent oversight provided by the other directors, who have served as senior executives and directors at other private and public companies.

During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, the Board held one meeting, including telephonic meetings, and took action in writing on seven occasions. During that year, each director attended board meetings and the meetings of all committees on which he served at the time. We encourage, but do not require, our directors to attend annual shareholder meetings. No directors attended our 2025 annual shareholder meeting in person or telephonically, apart from Mr. Polinsky.

Although risk management is a core responsibility of the Company's management, the Board recognizes that it plays a critical role in oversight of risk. The Board, in order to more specifically carry out this responsibility, has assigned the Audit Committee the primary duty to periodically review the Company's policies and practices with respect to risk assessment and risk management, including discussing with management the Company's major risk exposures and the steps that have been taken to monitor and control those exposures. Those risks include risks specific to the Company, and industry and general risks, such as risks related to the impact of the general economy on our business, all as further identified in our Annual Report.

Board Committee Membership

The Board of Directors has a standing Audit Committee, a Compensation Committee, and a Nominating and Governance Committee. Each committee has a written charter that is available on the Company's website at https://suig.io.

Audit Committee Information. The Audit Committee is composed of Kristina Campbel, Howard Liszt, Dana Wagner and Brian Quintenz, each of whom is independent for purposes of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), and applicable Nasdaq rules. Ms. Campbell serves as the chairperson of the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee met four times during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025.

The Audit Committee's charter makes the committee responsible, among other things, for:

	·	reviewing and discussing with management and the independent auditor the annual audited financial statements, and recommending to the Board whether the audited financial statements should be included in our required disclosures;
	·	approving the Company's independent accountants and recommending them to the Board (including a majority of the independent directors) for approval and submission to the shareholders for ratification (if any);
	·	reviewing with the independent accountants the plans and results of the audit engagement;
	·	approving professional services provided by its independent accountants;
	·	reviewing and discussing interim financial statements prior to the filing of quarterly reports and earnings releases;
	·	approving the committee report, as required by the SEC rules, to be included in the Company's annual proxy statement or annual report;
	·	discussing with management and the independent auditor significant financial reporting issues and judgments made in connection with the preparation of our financial statements;
	·	monitoring the independence of our independent auditor;
	·	verifying the rotation of the lead (or coordinating) audit partner having primary responsibility for the audit and the audit partner responsible for reviewing the audit as required by law;
	·	inquiring and discussing with management our compliance with applicable laws and regulations;

9

Table of Contents

	·	establishing procedures for the receipt, retention and treatment of complaints received by us regarding accounting, internal accounting controls or reports which raise material issues regarding our financial statements or accounting policies;
	·	reviewing the independence of its independent accountants and reviewing the adequacy of the Company's internal accounting controls; and
	·	reviewing and reassessing on an annual basis the adequacy of the charter and recommending any proposed changes to the charter to the Board.

The Audit Committee is also responsible for discussing with management the Company's major financial risk exposures and the steps management has taken to monitor and control such exposures, including the Company's risk-assessment and risk-management policies.

The Board has designated Ms. Campbell as an "audit committee financial expert" within the meaning of applicable SEC rules. The Board has determined that each of the Audit Committee members is able to read and understand fundamental financial statements and that at least one member of the Audit Committee has past employment experience in finance or accounting.

Compensation Committee Information. The Compensation Committee is composed of Messrs.

The Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee is responsible for advising the Board on a broad range of issues surrounding the composition and operation of the Board and its committees, specifically including identifying criteria for suitable board candidates, identifying individuals suited to service on the Board (consistent with those criteria), recommending director candidates to the Board and to the shareholders, conducting annual reviews of corporate governance matters and making related recommendations to the Board and its committees. The Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee took formal action once during 2025 in connection with the Company's 2025 annual shareholder meeting.

In identifying potential candidates, the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee considers recommendations from its members, other directors, our executive officers, and stockholders. In evaluating a candidate, the committee considers, among other factors, the candidate's relevant business and industry experience, professional background, judgment and integrity, independence under applicable listing standards and SEC rules, financial literacy, and ability to devote sufficient time to Board service, as well as the current composition and needs of the Board. We do not have a formal policy with respect to the consideration of diversity in identifying director nominees; however, the committee considers diversity of experience, skills, and background as part of its overall evaluation of each candidate.

PROPOSAL 2

DELAWARE COMPANY PROPOSAL

The Board recommends that our shareholders approve the reincorporation of the Company from a corporation incorporated under the laws of the State of Minnesota to a corporation incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware (the "Delaware Company") by way of a statutory conversion pursuant to the Plan of Conversion set out in Annex 1 of this proxy statement (the "Plan of Conversion"). The Board has determined that the reincorporation and the Plan of Conversion are in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders, and has approved the reincorporation and the Plan of Conversion. In this proxy statement, the proposed reincorporation of the Company by way of a statutory conversion (pursuant to the Plan of Conversion) to the Delaware Company is called the "Delaware Reincorporation."

Description of the Proposed Reincorporation to Delaware

The Delaware Reincorporation, if approved by our shareholders, will be effected through a conversion pursuant to Section 302A.682 of the Minnesota Business Corporation Act (the "MBCA") and Section 265 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware ("DGCL"). Approval of this Proposal will constitute approval of the Delaware Reincorporation, including adoption of the certificate of incorporation of the Delaware Company annexed hereto in Annex 2 (the "Delaware Certificate of Incorporation") and the bylaws of the Delaware Company annexed hereto in Annex 3 (the "Delaware Bylaws").

If the Delaware Reincorporation is approved, then upon the effectiveness of the Delaware Reincorporation:

	·	The Company will continue in existence as a Delaware corporation and will continue to operate our business under the current name, "Sui Group Holdings Limited."
	·	The corporate affairs of the Company will cease to be governed by Minnesota law and will instead be governed under Delaware law. See "Comparison of shareholder rights under Minnesota and Delaware Law and the Company's governing documents" below.
	·	The Company will cease to be governed by our existing articles of incorporation and bylaws and will instead be governed by the Delaware Certificate of Incorporation and the Delaware Bylaws. See "Comparison of shareholder rights under Minnesota and Delaware Law and the Company's governing documents."
	·	The Delaware Reincorporation is not expected to result in any change in our business, management, operations, or number of employees.

Material Terms of Plan of Conversion

Upon completion of the Delaware Reincorporation, the authorized capital stock of the Delaware Company will consist of 2,000,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.001 par value per share, and 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $0.001 par value per share.

Exchange of Shares

As of the Record Date, the Company has 74,957,862 shares of common stock issued and outstanding, and no preferred stock has been issued.

As part of the Delaware Reincorporation, each outstanding share of our common stock, par value $0.001 per share ("Common Stock"), at the effective time of the Delaware Reincorporation will automatically, by virtue of the Delaware Reincorporation, and without any further action on the part of the Company or its shareholders, become one outstanding share of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Delaware Company ("Delaware Company Common Stock"). Shareholders will not need to exchange their existing stock certificates for new stock certificates.

We do not expect any interruption in trading of our common stock solely as a result of the Delaware Reincorporation.

13

Table of Contents

Effective Time

If our shareholders approve the Delaware Reincorporation, we anticipate that the Delaware Reincorporation will become effective (the "Effective Time") as soon as practicable following the annual meeting. In connection with the Delaware Reincorporation, the Company intends to make filings with the Secretary of State of Minnesota, the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and Nasdaq, and does not believe any other filings will be required to effect the Delaware Reincorporation.

Abandonment of Delaware Reincorporation

The Delaware Reincorporation may be delayed by the Board and/or the Plan of Conversion may be terminated and abandoned by action of the Board at any time prior to the Effective Time, whether before or after the approval by our shareholders, if, in the opinion of the Board, such action would be in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders.

The full texts of the Plan of Conversion, the Delaware Company Certificate of Incorporation and the Delaware Bylaws are attached hereto as Annex 1, Annex 2 and Annex 3, respectively. The discussion contained in this proxy statement is qualified in its entirety by reference to such Annexes.

Background of the Proposal

The Board considered the issue of the Company's jurisdiction of incorporation in response to a number of factors, principally the highly developed and more predictable Delaware corporate law framework and the financial markets' expectations with regard to the Company.

The Board's Evaluation of the Delaware Reincorporation

The Board was advised by legal counsel regarding the development of corporate law in the United States and on other companies' incorporation decisions. The corporate laws of each of the States of Delaware and Minnesota operate under the same federal constitutional framework and draw on a common law heritage. Delaware is the leading jurisdiction for publicly traded corporations listed on American stock exchanges. More than half of such corporations, including more than two-thirds of Fortune 500 companies, have chosen to be incorporated in Delaware. Delaware is a leading jurisdiction for out-of-state incorporations, where a corporation headquartered in one state chooses to incorporate in another state. As a result of its long experience with corporate law matters and given the importance of those matters to the financial welfare of the State of Delaware, the Delaware General Assembly has developed a philosophy that emphasizes the stability of Delaware corporate law. When adopting legislation affecting corporations, the Delaware General Assembly's stated guiding principle is to achieve a balanced law. Each year, the Delaware General Assembly, with the assistance of the Corporation Law Section of the Delaware Bar, reviews the statute and considers amendments to remedy any perceived ambiguities in the law identified by corporate practitioners or the judiciary or that may be necessary to keep Delaware abreast of business developments or emerging legal trends. The Delaware General Assembly generally defers to the recommendations of the Corporation Law Section and each year passes a bill that addresses the significant issues that the corporate law practitioners have identified and sought to address since the preceding year. These features of Delaware's law, among others, have made it more advantageous for incorporation than other states. Through this process, Delaware law emphasizes consistency, predictability and stability. In addition, the Delaware Court of Chancery and Delaware Supreme Court are highly respected and experienced business courts with an extensive body of case law. Trials in the Delaware Court of Chancery are before judges who are experts in corporate law and appeals from the Delaware Court of Chancery are directly to the Delaware Supreme Court without a requirement for intermediate review. The Delaware statutory and judicial system has long and widely been lauded for its expertise.

In addition, the Board evaluated and confirmed that the Delaware Reincorporation would not materially alter any other economic rights of the Company's shareholders. For example, Delaware law would not alter the Company's ability to pay dividends or repurchase stock. The Board is not aware of any material adverse accounting, tax or other financial implications that would result from the Delaware Reincorporation, and has no reason to believe that the Delaware Reincorporation will materially affect the public trading of the Company's shares.

A company that chooses to be incorporated in Delaware will have its internal affairs governed by Delaware law, including the interpretation of its certificate of incorporation and the relationships between its shareholders and directors. A company that is incorporated in Delaware is generally subject to regulation wherever it does business, and its Delaware charter will not immunize it in any way from regulations unrelated to its internal affairs. For example, the Company will continue to be subject to the laws of the states in which it operates (as applicable) as well as applicable federal laws and regulations. Additionally, as discussed above, the Delaware General Assembly regularly reviews and updates the DGCL, which is perceived by some to make the DGCL more flexible and responsive than the MBCA.

14

Table of Contents

The Board balanced these considerations and concluded that in its business judgment, it is in the best interests of the Company and all its shareholders to convert to a Delaware Company pursuant to the Delaware Reincorporation.

The Board recommends that the shareholders of the Company approve the Delaware Company Proposal.

Although the Board believes that the Delaware Reincorporation is in the best interests of the Company and all of its shareholders, there can be no assurance that the Delaware Reincorporation will result in all or any of the benefits described in this Proxy Statement, including the benefits of or resulting from being incorporated in Delaware or the application of the DGCL to the internal affairs of the Company.

Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences

We believe that for federal income tax purposes no gain or loss will be recognized by the Company or shareholders who receive the Delaware Company Common Stock in exchange for their common stock in connection with the Delaware Reincorporation. Each shareholder's holding period of the Delaware Company Common Stock received in the Delaware Reincorporation will include the holding period of the common stock converted into that Delaware Company Common Stock, provided the shares are held by such shareholder as a capital asset at the time of the Delaware Reincorporation.

This Proxy Statement only discusses U.S. federal income tax consequences and has done so only for general information. It does not address all of the U.S. federal income tax consequences that may be relevant to particular shareholders based upon individual circumstances or to shareholders who are subject to special rules, such as financial institutions, tax-exempt organizations, insurance companies, dealers in securities, shareholders who hold their stock through a partnership or as part of a straddle or other derivative arrangement, foreign holders or holders who acquired their shares as compensation, whether through employee stock options or otherwise. This Proxy Statement does not address the tax consequences under state, local or foreign laws. State, local or foreign income tax consequences to shareholders may vary from the federal income tax consequences described above, and shareholders are urged to consult their own tax advisors as to the consequences to them of the Delaware Reincorporation under all applicable tax laws.

This discussion is based on the U.S. Internal Revenue Code, applicable Treasury Regulations, judicial authority and administrative rulings and practice, all in effect as of the date of this Proxy Statement, all of which are subject to differing interpretations and change, possibly with retroactive effect. The Company has neither requested nor received a tax opinion from legal counsel or rulings from the Internal Revenue Service regarding the consequences of the Reincorporation. There can be no assurance that future legislation, regulations, administrative rulings or court decisions would not alter the consequences discussed above.

You should consult your own tax advisor to determine the particular tax consequences to you of the Delaware Reincorporation, including the applicability and effect of U.S. federal, state, local, foreign and other tax laws.

Dissenters' Rights

Under Minnesota law, holders of shares of common stock are not entitled to appraisal rights in connection with the Delaware Reincorporation. While Section 302A.471, subdivision 1(e) of the MBCA provides for dissenters' rights to holders of shares in connection with a plan of conversion, subdivision 3(c) of that same Section of the MBCA provides that no such rights are available to holders of shares that are listed on a registered national securities exchange. Because our shares of common stock are listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market and that market is a registered national securities exchange, our shareholders will not have any dissenters' rights in connection with the Delaware Reincorporation.

Effect of Vote for the Delaware Company Proposal

A vote in favor of this proposal is a vote in favor of the Delaware Reincorporation, and the Plan of Conversion (including adoption of the Delaware Certificate of Incorporation and Delaware Bylaws). Upon the approval by the holders of a majority of the shares of common stock outstanding and entitled to vote at the annual meeting, the Company will be authorized to proceed with the Delaware Reincorporation.

Table of Contents

Shareholder Rights

Following the Reincorporation, the DGCL will govern the rights of our shareholders rather than the MBCA. While the MBCA and DGCL are similar with respect to the governing of corporate actions and shareholders' rights, there are a few differences in the law, which may affect your rights or interests. In addition, Minnesota case law concerning the governing and effects of its statutes and regulations is more limited than in Delaware, which has a separate court (the Delaware Court of Chancery) for adjudication of corporate disputes and a well-developed body of case law interpreting shareholders' rights.

Comparison of shareholder rights under Minnesota and Delaware Law and the Company's governing documents

The legal rights of the Company's shareholders derive from state law as well as its Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws. The following discussion identifies some of the important legal issues relating the Company and compares their effect on the Company under both the Minnesota law and Delaware law, and the related governing documentation.

Voting Power of Capital Stock

Minnesota. Each holder of our common stock has the right to cast one vote for each share of common stock held of record on all matters voted on by the shareholders, including the election of directors. Under Minnesota law, unless explicitly denied in a corporation's articles of incorporation, shareholders are entitled to cumulative voting in the election of directors. The Company's Articles of Incorporation deny cumulative voting rights, and therefore, our shareholders are not entitled to those rights.

Delaware. Each holder of the Delaware Company Common Stock will have the right to cast one vote for each share of common stock held of record on all matters properly submitted to the stockholders for their vote, including the election of directors. Under Delaware law, stockholders are not entitled to cumulative voting rights unless a corporation's certificate of incorporation explicitly authorizes them. The Delaware Certificate of Incorporation does not authorize cumulative voting rights for stockholders.

Action by Directors Without a Meeting

Minnesota and Delaware law permit directors to take written action without a meeting for an action otherwise required or permitted to be taken at a board meeting.

Minnesota. Minnesota law provides that a corporation's articles of incorporation or bylaws may provide for such written action (other than an action requiring shareholder approval) by the number of directors that would be required to take the same action at a meeting of the board at which all directors were present. The Company's Bylaws permit action to be taken by fewer than all directors if the number of directors approving the written action is at least that number of directors that would be required to take the same action at a meeting of the Board at which all directors were present. Minnesota law also states that if the articles of incorporation or bylaws so provide, a director may give advance written consent or opposition to a proposal to be acted on at a board meeting; however, such consent or opposition of a director not present at a meeting does not constitute presence for determining the existence of a quorum.

Delaware. Delaware law provides for the ability of the Board to take action by unanimous consent, unless otherwise restricted in the corporation's certificate of incorporation or bylaws. The Delaware Certificate of Incorporation and Delaware Bylaws do not restrict the ability of the Board to act by unanimous consent. Delaware law does not provide for the ability of directors to give advance written consent or opposition to a proposal to be acted on at a board meeting.

Conflicts of Interest

Minnesota. Under Minnesota law, a contract or transaction between a corporation (or its subsidiaries) on the one hand and one or more of the corporation's directors, or an entity in or of which one or more of the corporation's directors are directors, officers, or legal representatives or have a material financial interest, on the other is not void or voidable solely because of such reason, provided that the contract or transaction is (i) fair and reasonable at the time it is authorized, (ii) approved by a unanimous affirmative vote of all stockholders or two-thirds of the voting power of the corporation's disinterested stockholders after disclosure of the relationship or interest, or (iii) is approved in good faith by a majority of the disinterested members of the board of directors after disclosure of the relationship or interest.

16

Table of Contents

Delaware. Delaware recently adopted statutory safe harbors for certain interested acts and transactions involving one or more of a corporation's directors or officers, as well as transactions (both going private and non-going private transactions) involving controlling stockholders and members of control groups. Section 144 of the DGCL ("Section 144") provides that certain interested acts and transactions may not be subject to equitable relief or give rise to an award of damages against directors, officers or controlling stockholders or members of control groups, as applicable, solely because the act or transaction is between a corporation and one or more of such persons, provided that certain procedural safeguards are satisfied. With respect to interested director or officer acts or transactions, the protections of Section 144 are available if at least one of the following procedural safeguards is satisfied: (i) the approval of a majority of the disinterested directors (as defined in Section 144) then serving on the board of directors or, if a majority of the directors then serving on the board are not disinterested directors, a committee of at least two disinterested directors, in each case, acting in good faith and without gross negligence, (ii) the informed, uncoerced, affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast by the disinterested stockholders (as defined in Section 144) or (iii) if the act or transaction is fair as to the corporation and the corporation's stockholders. With respect to controlling stockholder transactions that are not going private transactions (as defined in Section 144), the protections of Section 144 are available if at least one of the following procedural safeguards is satisfied: (i) the approval by an informed committee of at least two disinterested directors, acting in good faith and without gross negligence, (ii) the transaction is conditioned on the informed, uncoerced, affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast by the disinterested stockholders or (iii) if the transaction is fair as to the corporation and the corporation's stockholders. Finally, with respect to controlling stockholder transactions that are going private transactions, the protections of Section 144 are available if at least one of the following procedural safeguards is satisfied: (i) both (A) the approval by an informed committee of at least two disinterested directors, acting in good faith and without gross negligence, and (B) the transaction is conditioned on the informed, uncoerced, affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast by the disinterested stockholders or (ii) if the transaction is fair as to the corporation and the corporation's stockholders.

Number of Directors

Minnesota. Minnesota law provides that the number of directors shall be fixed by or in the manner provided in the articles of incorporation or bylaws, and that the number of directors may be changed at any time by amendment to or in the manner provided in the articles of incorporation or bylaws. Under the Company's Bylaws, the size of the Board shall be determined from time to time by resolution of the Board or resolution of the Shareholders. The Company's Board presently consists of six (6) directors.

Delaware. Delaware law provides that the number of directors shall be fixed by, or in the manner provided in, the bylaws, unless the certificate of incorporation fixes the number of directors, in which case a change in the number of directors shall be made only by amendment of the certificate. The Delaware Bylaws provide that the number of directors shall be determined from time to time by resolution adopted by the Board.

Classified Board of Directors

Both Minnesota and Delaware permit a corporation's governing documents to provide for a classified board of directors. Delaware permits a maximum of three classes while Minnesota law does not limit the number of classes. Neither the Bylaws for the Company nor the Delaware Bylaws or Delaware Certificate of Incorporation provide for a classified board.

Removal of Directors by Shareholders

Minnesota. Under Minnesota law, unless a corporation's articles of incorporation or bylaws provide otherwise, a director may be removed, with or without cause by the affirmative vote of a majority of the voting power of all shares (or by a majority of the entire class or series of shares entitled to appoint such director). Different voting thresholds (which are inapplicable to the Company) apply to the removal of a director for corporations with cumulative voting, but these are inapplicable to the Company.

Delaware. Under Delaware law, a director or the entire board of directors of a corporation may be removed with or without cause by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of shares entitled to vote for the election of directors except under limited circumstances not currently applicable to the Delaware Company.

Vacancies on Board of Directors

Minnesota. Under Minnesota law, unless the articles of incorporation or bylaws provide otherwise, a vacancy on a corporation's board of directors (resulting from death, resignation, removal or disqualification of a director or an increase in size of the board) may be filled by the affirmative vote of a majority of directors then in office, even though less than a quorum. Any director so elected shall hold office only until a qualified successor is elected at the next regular or special meeting of shareholders. The Company's Bylaws follow these provisions.

17

Table of Contents

Delaware. Under Delaware law, a vacancy on a corporation's board of directors may be filled by a majority of the remaining directors, even if less than a quorum, or by a sole remaining director, or by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding voting shares, unless otherwise provided in the certificate of incorporation or bylaws. The Delaware Bylaws provide that, unless otherwise provided in the Delaware Certificate of Incorporation or the Delaware Bylaws, vacancies on the Board, whether caused by resignation, death, disqualification, removal or otherwise, and newly created directorships resulting from an increase in the authorized number of directors, shall, unless the Board determines by resolution that any such vacancies or newly created directorships shall be filled by the stockholders, be filled only by the affirmative vote of a majority of the directors then in office, even though less than a quorum of the Board, or by a sole remaining director, and not by the stockholders.

Standard of Conduct for Directors

Minnesota. Minnesota law provides that a director must discharge the director's duties in good faith, in a manner the director reasonably believes to be in the best interests of the corporation, and with the care an ordinarily prudent person in a like position would exercise under similar circumstances. A director who complies with such standards may not be held liable by reason of being a director or having been a director of the corporation.

Delaware. Under Delaware law, the standards of conduct for directors and officers have developed through written opinions of the Delaware courts. Directors and officers of Delaware corporations have a fiduciary duty to act in the best interests of the corporation and its stockholders. This fiduciary responsibility includes the duty of care and the duty of loyalty. The duty of care requires directors to act in a fully informed manner and exercise that degree of care and prudence that would be expected of them in the management of their own affairs. The duty of loyalty requires a director to place the interests of the corporation and its stockholders above any personal interest when making decisions. The duty of loyalty prohibits a director from using their corporate position to realize personal gain at the expense of the corporation. Subsumed within the duty of loyalty is the duty to act in good faith, which requires directors to act honestly and in a manner that is not knowingly unlawful or contrary to public policy. Deliberate indifference or inaction in the face of a known duty to act are hallmarks of bad faith conduct.

Constituent Interests

Minnesota. Under Minnesota law, in considering the best interests of the corporation, a director may consider the interests of the corporation's employees, customers, suppliers, and creditors, the economy of the state and nation, community and societal considerations, and the long-term as well as short-term interests of the corporation and its shareholders including the possibility that these interests may be best served by the continued independence of the corporation.

Delaware. Under Delaware law, directors should act with a long-term view to enhance the value of the corporation for its stockholders' benefit. However, Delaware law recognizes that certain stakeholder interests may support the long-term value of the corporation for the stockholders. In other words, if acting in the interests of another stakeholder would preserve or enhance the value of the corporation for its stockholders, taking such action would comport with the directors' fiduciary duties under Delaware law.

Indemnification of Directors and Officers

Minnesota law and Delaware law both contain provisions setting forth conditions under which a corporation may indemnify its directors, officers and employees. While indemnification is permitted only if statutory standards of conduct are met, Minnesota law and Delaware law are substantially similar in providing for indemnification if the person acted in good faith and in a manner the person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe the conduct was unlawful. The statutes differ, however, with respect to whether indemnification is permissive or mandatory, where there is a distinction between third-party actions and actions by or in the right of the corporation, and whether, and to what extent, reimbursement of judgments, fines, settlements, and expenses is allowed. For example, while indemnification of officers, directors and employees is mandatory under Minnesota law, indemnification is generally permissive under Delaware law, except that a Delaware corporation must indemnify a present or former director or officer who is successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of certain specified actions, suits or proceedings for expenses (including attorney's fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection therewith.

Table of Contents

Minnesota law requires a corporation to indemnify any director, officer or employee who is made or threatened to be made a party to a proceeding by reason of the former or present official capacity of the director, officer or employee, against judgments, penalties, fines, settlements and reasonable expenses. Minnesota law permits a corporation to prohibit indemnification by so providing in its articles of incorporation or bylaws. The Company has not limited the statutory indemnification in its articles of incorporation or bylaws. The Company's bylaws provide for indemnification to the fullest extent permitted by Minnesota law.

Under Delaware law, a corporation may, through its certificate of incorporation, bylaws or other agreements, make indemnification mandatory where indemnification would otherwise only be permissive under Delaware law. The Delaware Bylaws provides for mandatory indemnification to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law for directors and officers of the Delaware Company. The Delaware Bylaws also provide for the advancement of expenses actually and reasonably incurred, prior to the final disposition of any claim by final adjudication to which there are no further rights of appeal by its officers, directors and employees. Such advancement is not subject to the satisfaction of any standard of conduct but is subject to repayment in the event the expenses relating to, arising out of or resulting from any indemnification claim, it is determined following the final disposition of such claim that the officer, director or employee, as applicable, is not entitled to indemnification. There is no pending or, to the Company's knowledge, threatened litigation to which any of its directors is a party in which the rights of the Company or its shareholders would be affected if the Company currently were subject to the provisions of Delaware law rather than Minnesota law.

Minnesota and Delaware corporate law, the articles of incorporation and bylaws of the Company, and the Delaware Certificate of Incorporation and the Delaware Bylaws, as well as any indemnity agreements, may permit indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act") or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). The Board has been advised that, in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act may be contrary to public policy and therefore may be unenforceable, absent a decision to the contrary by a court of appropriate jurisdiction.

Limitation of Liability

Minnesota. Minnesota law provides that the personal liability of a director for breach of a fiduciary duty may be eliminated or limited if the articles of incorporation so provide, but the articles may not limit or eliminate such liability for (a) any breach of the directors' duty of loyalty to the corporation or its shareholders, (b) acts or omissions not in good faith or that involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (c) the payment of unlawful dividends, stock repurchases or redemptions, (d) any transaction in which the director received an improper personal benefit, (e) certain violations of the Minnesota securities laws, and (f) any act or omission that occurs before the effective date of the provision in the articles eliminating or limiting liability. The Company's Articles of Incorporation contains a provision eliminating the personal liability of its directors for breach of fiduciary duty, subject to the foregoing limitations.

Delaware. Delaware law provides that if the certificate of incorporation so provides, the personal liability of a director or officer for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director or officer may be eliminated or limited, but that the liability of a director or officer is not limited or eliminated for (a) any breach of the director's or officer's duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders, (b) acts or omissions not in good faith or involving intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (c) with respect to a director, the payment of unlawful dividends, stock repurchases or redemptions, (d) any transaction in which the director or officer received an improper personal benefit, (e) with respect to an officer, in any action by or in the right of the corporation, or (f) any act or omission that occurs before the effective date of the provision in the certificate eliminating or limiting liability. The Delaware Certificate of Incorporation provides that, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, a director or officer shall not be personally liable to the Delaware Company or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of a director's or officer's fiduciary duty. The Company is not aware of any pending or threatened litigation to which the limitation of directors' liability would apply.

Treasury Shares

Minnesota. Minnesota law does not allow treasury shares.

Delaware. Under Delaware law, the Company may hold treasury shares and such shares may be held, sold, loaned, pledged or exchanged by the Company. Such treasury shares, however, are not outstanding shares and therefore do not receive any dividends and do not have voting rights.

Amendment of Articles of Incorporation and Certificate of Incorporation

Minnesota. Holders of 3% or more of the voting power of the shares of a Minnesota corporation may propose amendments to the articles of incorporation, even if the board of directors does not approve. In general, amendments to the Company's Articles of Incorporation must be recommended to the Company's shareholders by the board and approved by a majority of the votes entitled to be cast by each voting group that has a right to vote on the amendment, unless a higher percentage is specified by Minnesota law, the Company's Articles of Incorporation or the Company's Bylaws.

Delaware. Delaware law provides that the certificate of incorporation of a Delaware corporation may be amended upon adoption by the board of directors of a resolution setting forth the proposed amendment and declaring its advisability, followed by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares entitled to vote and by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of each class entitled to vote as a class thereon. It also provides that a certificate of incorporation may provide for a greater vote than would otherwise be required by Delaware law. The Delaware Certificate of Incorporation does not provide for a different threshold.

Amendment of Bylaws

Minnesota. Holders of 3% or more of the voting power of the shares of a Minnesota corporation may propose amendments to the bylaws, even if the board of directors does not approve. The Company's Bylaws provide that the Board shall have the power, to the extent permitted by law, to adopt, amend or repeal the Bylaws of the Company, subject to the power of the shareholders to adopt, amend or repeal such Bylaws, but they may not make or alter Bylaws fixing the number of directors or their classifications, qualifications or terms of office.

Delaware. Under Delaware law, stockholders have the authority to make, alter, amend or repeal the bylaws of a corporation and such power may also be conferred on the board of directors. The Delaware Certificate of Incorporation provide that both the Board and the stockholders have the power to adopt, amend or repeal any provisions of the Delaware Bylaws.

Extraordinary Transactions

Minnesota. Under Minnesota law, action on certain matters, including the sale, lease or exchange of all or substantially all of the Company's property or assets, mergers, and consolidations, statutory conversions, and voluntary dissolution, must be approved by the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares entitled to vote thereon. With respect to a sale of "substantially all" assets, the Minnesota statute provides that shareholder approval is required for an asset sale outside the ordinary course only if it would leave the corporation without a "significant continuing business activity." Additionally, the Minnesota statute provides that "a business activity that represented at least (1) 25 percent of the corporation's total assets at the end of the most recently completed fiscal year, and (2) 25 percent of either income from continuing operations before taxes or revenues from continuing operations for that fiscal year, measured on a consolidated basis," will conclusively be deemed to be a "significant continuing business activity."

Delaware. Under Delaware law, action on certain matters, including the sale, lease or exchange of all or substantially all of the Company's property or assets (other than to a wholly owned subsidiary), mergers, consolidations, statutory conversions, and voluntary dissolutions, must be approved by the Board and the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares entitled to vote thereon. With regard to the sale of all or "substantially all" assets, Delaware common law requires both a quantitative and qualitative analysis in order to determine if the assets being sold, leased or exchanged constitute "substantially all" of a corporation's assets and, as a result, there can be uncertainty regarding the need for stockholder approval when a corporation disposes of a significant amount of its assets.

Shareholders' Action Without a Meeting

Minnesota. Under Minnesota law, any action required or permitted to be taken at a shareholders' meeting of a publicly held company may be taken without a meeting by written consent signed by all of the shareholders entitled to vote on such action, and a publicly held company cannot provide for a lower threshold in its articles of incorporation. This power cannot be restricted by a corporation's articles of incorporation.

20

Table of Contents

Delaware. Delaware law permits action to be taken by stockholders without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote, if a consent, setting forth the action so taken, is signed by the holders of not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting of the stockholders at which all shares entitled to vote thereon were present and voted, unless otherwise provided in the corporation's certificate of incorporation. Stockholders who do not sign the consent must be notified promptly of the taking of such action by consent. Delaware law provides that a corporation's certificate of incorporation may limit or eliminate stockholders' action without a meeting. The Delaware Certificate of Incorporation provides for stockholders' right to take action by consent without a meeting.

Special Meetings

Minnesota. According to the Company's Bylaws, special meetings of the Company's shareholders may be called by the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, two or more directors, or by a holder or holders of ten percent (10%) or more of the shares entitled to vote.

Delaware. Delaware law provides that special meetings of the stockholders of a corporation may be called by the corporation's board of directors or by such other persons as may be authorized in the corporation's certificate of incorporation or bylaws. The Delaware Company's Bylaws provide that special meetings may be called by the Chief Executive Officer, by the Chief Financial Officer, by the Chief Investment Officer, by or at the direction of the Board or any two members thereof, or by the Secretary, following his or her receipt at the principal executive office of the Company of one or more written demands to call a special meeting of the stockholders submitted by or on behalf of the record holder or holders of at least twenty percent (20%) of the voting power of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company.

Notice of Stockholder Meetings

Minnesota. When required, Minnesota law requires that notice be given at least 10 days before the date of the meeting, or a shorter time provided in the articles or bylaws, and not more than 60 days before the date of the meeting. The Bylaws of the Company provide that mailed notice must be mailed at least 5 days prior to the meeting and in no event shall the notice be given more than 60 days in advance of the meeting.

Delaware. When required, Delaware law requires that notice be given to each stockholder entitled to vote at a stockholder meeting not less than 10 nor more than 60 days before the date of a meeting. Unlike Minnesota, Delaware does not permit a company to reduce the notice requirement in its certificate of incorporation or bylaws.

Dividends

Minnesota. Generally, a Minnesota corporation may pay a dividend if its board of directors determines that the corporation will be able to pay its debts in the ordinary course of business after paying the dividend and if, among other things, the dividend payment does not reduce the remaining net assets of the corporation below the aggregate preferential amount payable in the event of liquidation to the holders of the shares having preferential rights, unless the payment is made to those shareholders in the order and to the extent of their respective priorities.

Delaware. A Delaware corporation may pay dividends out of surplus or, if there is no surplus, out of net profits for the fiscal year in which the dividend is declared and/or for the preceding fiscal year, except that dividends may not be paid out of net profits if, after the payment of the dividend, capital is less than the capital represented by the outstanding stock of all classes having a preference upon the distribution of assets.

Anti-Takeover Legislation

Both Minnesota law and Delaware law contain provisions intended to protect shareholders from individuals or companies attempting a takeover of a corporation in certain circumstances. The anti-takeover provisions of the MBCA and the DGCL differ in a number of respects, and it is not practical to summarize all of the differences. However, the following is a summary of certain significant differences.

Minnesota. The Minnesota control share acquisition statute establishes various disclosure and shareholder approval requirements that must be satisfied by individuals or companies. The Minnesota statute requires disinterested shareholder approval for any "control share acquisition" of stock of an "issuing public corporation." A "control share acquisition" includes any share acquisition that exceeds specified levels of voting power (20%, 33¹/₃%, and 50%) of the stock of the target. An "issuing public corporation" is a publicly held corporation which is incorporated under or governed by the MBCA and has at least fifty shareholders. Accordingly, persons who acquire shares of the Company without shareholder approval and in excess of a designated percentage of outstanding shares lose their voting rights and are subject to certain redemption privileges of the corporation. Such shares regain their voting rights only if the acquiring person discloses certain information to the corporation and such voting rights are granted by the shareholders at an annual or special meeting of the shareholders. There are a number of important exclusions intended primarily to distinguish hostile acquisitions from transactions negotiated and approved by the management and shareholders, including exclusions for shares acquired (i) pursuant to a merger, plan of exchange or sale of assets, (ii) directly from the target issuer, (iii) in a cash tender offer for all outstanding shares if the offer has been approved in advance by the board of directors of the target, and (iv) by employee benefit plans. The Minnesota control share acquisition statute applies unless the "issuing public corporation" opts out of the statute in its articles of incorporation or bylaws. The Company has not opted out of such provisions.

21

Table of Contents

With respect to business combinations generally, Minnesota law is similar to that of Delaware (see below for more details). However, there are some differences, including (i) the interested shareholder threshold is 10% rather than 15%, (ii) the prohibition period for business combinations is four years from the time the shareholder passes the threshold instead of three years, and (iii) there are no equivalents to the Delaware exceptions for acquisition of 85% of voting stock, for two-thirds shareholder approval at a shareholder meeting or for management approval of a competing transaction or tender offer. The Minnesota provision applies to "issuing public corporations," defined in relevant part as any Minnesota corporation that is publicly held and has at least 50 shareholders. Issuing public corporations are automatically subject unless they opt out by charter amendment and issuing public corporations that are not publicly held are subject only if they opt in by charter amendment. The Company is an "issuing public corporation" under Minnesota law and has not opted out of the Minnesota provision.

The MBCA includes other provisions relating to takeovers that are not included in the DGCL. Some of these provisions address a corporation's use of golden parachutes, greenmail and the standard of conduct of the Board in connection with the consideration of takeover proposals. The MBCA contains a provision which prohibits a publicly held corporation from entering into or amending agreements (commonly referred to as golden parachutes) that increase current or future compensation of any officer or director during any tender offer or request or invitation for tenders. The MBCA provides that a publicly held corporation is prohibited from purchasing or agreeing to purchase any shares from a person who beneficially owns more than 5% of the voting power of the corporation if the shares had been beneficially owned by that person for less than two years, and if the purchase price would exceed the market value of those shares. However, such a purchase will not violate the statute if the purchase is approved at a meeting of the shareholders by a majority of the voting power of all shares entitled to vote or if the corporation's offer is of at least equal value per share and made to all holders of shares of the class or series and to all holders of any class or series into which the securities may be converted. In considering the best interests of the corporation with respect to a proposed acquisition of an interest in the corporation, the MBCA authorizes the board of directors to consider the interest of the corporation's employees, customers, suppliers and creditors, the economy of the state and nation, community and social considerations and the long-term as well as short-term interests of the corporation and its shareholders, including the possibility that these interests may be best served by the continued independence of the corporation.

Delaware. While there is no Delaware statute comparable to the Minnesota control share acquisition statute, the DGCL is an enabling statute that is intended to provide a corporation with the flexibility to select the internal structure and procedures that best suits its needs. Further, both Minnesota and Delaware have business combination statutes that are intended primarily to prevent abusive tactics in the hostile takeover context.

Delaware law restricts certain business combination transactions between an "interested stockholder" and a Delaware corporation. Under Section 203 of the DGCL, an "interested stockholder" is generally defined as a person that (a) is the owner of 15% or more of the outstanding voting stock of the corporation or (b) is an affiliate or associate of the corporation and was the owner of 15% or more of the outstanding voting stock of the corporation at any time within the three-year period immediately prior to the date on which it is sought to be determined whether such person is an interested stockholder, and the affiliates and associates of such person, in each case subject to certain exceptions. Unless an exception is available, the statute provides that for three years after such person becomes an interested stockholder, the corporation cannot engage in a "business combination" with such interested stockholder. The DGCL generally defines a "business combination" as (i) any merger or consolidation with the interested stockholder or that results in Section 203 no longer being applicable that is caused by the interested stockholder; (ii) any sale lease, exchange, mortgage, pledge, transfer or other disposition of assets having an aggregate market value of 10% or more of either the consolidated assets or the outstanding stock of a company, subject to certain exceptions; (iii) any transaction that would result in the issuance or transfer of stock of the corporation to an interested stockholder, subject to certain exceptions; (iv) any transaction that has the effect, directly or indirectly, of increasing the proportionate share of stock of the corporation which is owned by the interested stockholder, subject to exceptions; and (v) any receipt by the interested stockholder of the benefit, directly or indirectly, of any loans, advances, guarantees, pledges or other financial benefits provided by or through the corporation, subject to certain exceptions.

22

Table of Contents

There are a number of exceptions to the basic prohibition on business combination transactions, including, among others, the following. First, the Delaware statute does not prohibit a business combination with an interested stockholder if, prior to becoming an interested stockholder, the board of directors has approved the business combination or the transaction which resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder. Second, a business combination is permissible if the interested stockholder acquires at least 85% of the target's outstanding voting stock (subject to certain exceptions) in the transaction in which the person became an interested stockholder. Third, a business combination with an interested stockholder is permissible if approved by the board and authorized at an annual or special meeting of stockholders, and not by written consent, by the affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of the outstanding voting stock which is not owned by the interested stockholder. Fourth, if the target corporation, with the support of a majority of its continuing directors, proposes at any time another merger or sale or does not oppose another tender offer for at least 50% of its shares, the interested stockholder is released from the three-year prohibition and free to compete with the target-supported transaction. In addition, note that while Delaware permits companies to opt out of its business combination statute, the Delaware Certificate of Incorporation does not include this opt-out provision.

Inspection of Shareholder Lists and Other Books and Records

Minnesota. Under Minnesota law, any shareholder of a publicly held corporation has a right, upon written demand stating the purpose and acknowledged or verified in accordance with Minnesota law, to examine and copy the corporation's share register and other corporate records reasonably related to the stated purpose and described with reasonable particularity in the written demand upon demonstrating the stated purpose to be a proper purpose.

Delaware. Under Delaware law, any stockholder, upon written demand under oath stating the purpose thereof, has the right during the usual hours for business to inspect for any proper purpose a corporation's stock ledger, a list of the corporation's stockholders, and its other books and records and to make copies or extracts therefrom. Stockholders must have a proper purpose for inspecting books and records, meaning a purpose reasonably related to the person's interest as a stockholder. The Delaware General Assembly recently passed amendments to the DGCL, which, among other things, (i) defines the scope of "books and records" which a stockholder may inspect, subject to compliance with the statutory requirements, and (ii) limits a stockholder's right to inspect and copy a corporation's books and records only if the demand is made in good faith and for a proper purpose, the demand describes with reasonable particularity the stockholder's purpose and the books and records it seeks to inspect, and the books and records sought are specifically related to the stockholder's purpose.

Preemptive Rights

Minnesota. Under Minnesota law, unless explicitly denied in a corporation's articles of incorporation, shareholders have a right to purchase a fraction of securities or rights to purchase securities before a corporation may offer them to other purchasers (subject to certain exemptions). The Company's Articles of Incorporation provide that no shareholder of the Company shall have any preemptive rights.

Delaware. Under Delaware law, stockholders are not entitled to preemptive rights unless a corporation's certificate of incorporation explicitly authorize them. The Delaware Certificate of Incorporation does not authorize preemptive rights for shareholders.

Appraisal Rights in Connection with Corporate Reorganizations and Other Actions

Minnesota. In some circumstances under Minnesota law, shareholders have the right to dissent from certain corporate transactions by demanding an appraisal of their shares as determined by agreement with the corporation or by a court in an action timely brought by the dissenting shareholders. Minnesota law, in general, affords dissenters' rights upon certain amendments to the articles of incorporation that materially and adversely affect the rights or preferences of the shares of the dissenting shareholder, upon the sale of substantially all corporate assets and upon merger or exchange by a corporation.

Delaware. Under Delaware law, stockholders have the right to dissent and demand an appraisal by the Court of Chancery to award the "fair value" of their shares in certain mergers, consolidations, conversions, transfers, domestications and continuances. No such appraisal rights exist, however, for corporations whose shares are listed on a national securities exchange or held of record by more than 2,000 holders of record unless the certificate of incorporation provides otherwise (the Delaware Certificate of Incorporation does not provide otherwise) or the stockholders of which are to receive in the transaction anything other than (a) shares of stock of the corporation surviving or resulting from such merger, consolidation, conversion, transfer, domestication or continuance, (b) shares of stock of any other corporation which at the effective date of the merger, consolidation, conversion, transfer, domestication or continuance will be either listed on a national securities exchange or held by more than 2,000 holders of record, (c) cash in lieu of fractional shares of the corporation described in the foregoing clauses (a) and (b), or (d) any combination of clauses (a), (b), or (c). The procedures for asserting dissenters' rights in Delaware impose most of the initial costs of such assertion on the dissenting stockholder, whereas the Minnesota procedures pose little financial risk to the dissenting shareholder in demanding payment in excess of the amount the corporation determined to be the fair value of its shares due to the fact that the Minnesota shareholder is paid up front the value determined by the corporation.

Franchise Tax

Delaware imposes annual franchise tax fees on all corporations incorporated in Delaware. The annual fee ranges from a nominal fee to a maximum of $200,000, based on an equation of the number of shares authorized and outstanding and the net assets of the corporation. Based on our current capital structure and anticipated number of outstanding shares following the Delaware Reincorporation, our annual Delaware franchise tax could be significant. As a Minnesota corporation, we are not currently subject to an equivalent tax under Minnesota law.

What Doesn't Change After the Delaware Reincorporation?

From and after the completion of the Delaware Reincorporation, the Company will continue to exist in the form of a Delaware corporation, governed by the Delaware Certificate of Incorporation, the Delaware Bylaws and the DGCL, and cease to exist as a Minnesota corporation. By virtue of the Delaware Reincorporation, the Delaware Company will be a continuation of the Company and all of the rights, privileges, and powers of the Company, and all property, real, personal, and mixed, and all debts due to the Company, as well as all other things and causes of action belonging to the Company, will remain vested in the Delaware Company and will be the property of the Delaware Company. All rights of creditors and all liens upon any property of the Company will be preserved unimpaired (subject to timely UCC filings). In addition, all debts, liabilities, and duties of the Company will remain attached to the Delaware Company and may be enforced against the Delaware Company to the same extent as if said debts, liabilities and duties had originally been incurred or contracted by it in its capacity as the Company.

The conversion of the Company to the Delaware Company and the resulting cessation of the Company's existence as a corporation of Minnesota will not affect any obligations or liabilities of the Company incurred prior to the conversion or the personal liability of any person incurred prior to the conversion, nor will it affect the choice of law applicable to the Company with respect to matters arising prior to the conversion.

It is not anticipated that the Delaware Reincorporation will result in any change in business, jobs, management, properties, location of any of our offices or facilities, number of employees, obligations, assets, liabilities or net worth.

Our management, including all directors and officers, will remain the same in connection with the Delaware Reincorporation and will have identical positions with the Delaware Company.

We will continue to be a publicly held company following completion of the Delaware Reincorporation, and our common stock will continue to be listed and traded on The Nasdaq Capital Market. We will continue to file required periodic reports and other documents with the SEC. We do not expect there to be any interruption in the trading of our common stock as a result of the Delaware Reincorporation. We and our shareholders will be in the same respective positions under the federal securities laws after the Delaware Reincorporation as we and our shareholders were prior to the Delaware Reincorporation.

Interests of Directors and Executive Officers in the Reincorporation

In considering the recommendation of the Board of Directors to approve the Delaware Reincorporation, shareholders should be aware that our directors and executive officers have interests in the transaction that may be different from, or in addition to, the interests of our shareholders generally. The Board was aware of these interests and considered them in approving the Delaware Reincorporation and recommending that shareholders vote in favor of the proposal.

In particular, the DGCL permits a corporation to provide its directors and officers with rights to exculpation, indemnification, and advancement of expenses that are broader in certain respects than those available under the MBCA. Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL permits a Delaware corporation to eliminate or limit the personal liability of directors and certain senior officers for monetary damages for breach of the fiduciary duty of care, subject to specified exceptions. By contrast, the MBCA permits such exculpation only for directors, not officers. The Delaware Bylaws will provide for indemnification of directors and officers, and mandatory advancement of expenses, to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law, and we may enter into indemnification agreements with some or all of our directors and executive officers in connection with the Delaware Reincorporation. These provisions are, in certain respects, broader than the indemnification rights available under Section 302A.521 of the MBCA and under our current articles of incorporation and bylaws. Accordingly, after the Delaware Reincorporation, our directors and executive officers will have greater protection against personal liability and expanded rights to indemnification and expense advancement than they currently have, and they may therefore be deemed to have a personal interest in the approval of this proposal.

24

Table of Contents

Except as described above, no director or executive officer of the Company has any substantial interest, direct or indirect, by security holdings or otherwise, in the Delaware Reincorporation that is not shared by all other shareholders.

Required Vote

We ask our shareholders to approve the Delaware Reincorporation and the adoption of the Plan of Conversion (as set forth in Annex 1), which includes the adoption of the Delaware Certificate of Incorporation (as set forth in Annex 2) and the Delaware Bylaws (as set forth in Annex 3). This proposal to approve the Delaware Company Proposal requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares outstanding and entitled to vote thereon at the annual meeting.

Conclusion

After careful review of all the factors, taken together, the Board believes that the Delaware Reincorporation is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders.

Our Board recommends that you vote "FOR" the Delaware Company Proposal.

Effect of Not Obtaining the Required Vote for Approval

If the Delaware Company Proposal fails to obtain the required vote for approval, the Delaware Reincorporation will not be consummated, and the Company's domicile will be unchanged.

PROPOSAL 3

ADVISORY VOTE ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the "Dodd-Frank Act") was signed into law on July 21, 2010. The Dodd-Frank Act requires that our shareholders be provided an opportunity to cast a separate advisory vote on the compensation paid to our executive officers as disclosed in this proxy statement.

The Company has designed its executive compensation program to attract, motivate, reward and retain the senior management talent required to achieve our corporate objectives and to increase long-term shareholder value. See the "Executive Compensation" section of this proxy statement for a description of the compensation arrangements in place with our executives. The Compensation Committee intends to continue examining the Company's executive compensation program to achieve corporate objectives going forward.

This advisory vote, commonly known as a "say-on-pay" proposal, gives you as a shareholder the opportunity to vote on the compensation of our executive officers through the following resolution:

"RESOLVED, that the shareholders of Sui Group Holdings Limited approve the compensation of its executive officers as described in the proxy statement for its 2026 annual meeting of shareholders."

Under the Dodd-Frank Act, your vote on this matter is advisory and will therefore not be binding upon the Board of Directors. Nevertheless, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors may take the outcome of the vote into account when determining further executive compensation arrangements.

Our Board unanimously recommends that you vote "FOR" approval of the Advisory Proposal.

PROPOSAL 4

ADJOURNMENT PROPOSAL

The Board recommends that our shareholders approve this Adjournment Proposal to permit us to adjourn or postpone the annual meeting for the purpose of soliciting additional proxies in the event that, at the annual meeting, there are insufficient votes to approve any one or more of the Proposals.

In this Adjournment Proposal, we are asking you to authorize the holder of any proxy solicited by our Board to vote in favor of adjourning the annual meeting, and any later adjournments, to another time and place. If our shareholders approve the Adjournment Proposal, we could adjourn the annual meeting, and any adjourned session of the annual meeting, to a later date and use the additional time to solicit additional proxies in favor of the Delaware Company Proposal, including the solicitation of proxies from holders of our common stock that have previously voted against any of that proposal. If the Adjournment Proposal is approved, we could adjourn the annual meeting without a vote on the Delaware Company Proposal even if we had received proxies representing votes against such proposal such that it would not be approved by the vote required, and then seek to convince the holders of those shares to change their votes to votes in favor of such proposal. If you have previously submitted a proxy on any proposal and wish to revoke it upon adjournment or postponement of the annual meeting, you may do so.

The length of time the annual meeting may be adjourned or postponed will depend on the circumstances and will be determined by the Company. If the annual meeting is adjourned for more than 120 days after the date fixed for the original meeting date, we will be required to provide our shareholders with formal notice of the adjourned meeting. Our Board believes that if the number of shares of our common stock present or represented at the annual meeting is insufficient to approve the Delaware Company Proposal, it is in the best interests of our shareholders to enable us, for a limited period of time, to continue to seek to obtain a sufficient number of additional votes to approve that proposal. The Adjournment Proposal requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares of common stock present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote at the annual meeting.

Our Board recommends that our shareholders vote "FOR" the Adjournment Proposal.

Employment Agreements with Named Executives

We entered into new employment agreements with each of the named executives-Messrs. Polinsky and Geraci-that were effective as of July 31, 2025. Each employment agreement has a term that lasts for three years thereafter, subject to extension by mutual agreement of the parties. Each employment agreement provides the executive with a base annual salary of $450,000. Each executive is also entitled to have health insurance provided by us and the ability to contribute to our 401(k) retirement plan.

Each employment agreement contains one-year non-competition and non-solicitation covenants, as well as a customary covenants relating to the confidentiality of Company information. In the event that an executive is terminated for Cause (as defined in the employment agreements) or in the event that an executive's services are terminated due to death or disability, the terminated executive will be entitled to receive only his base annual salary through the date of termination. In the event of other non-cause terminations, we will be obligated to pay the terminated executive's base annual salary through the remainder of the employment term. Neither employment agreement contains any change-in-control provisions.

On November 23, 2022, we issued to each named executive 250,000 (aggregating 500,000 in total to both named executives) ten-year non-statutory stock options to purchase common stock at the purchase price of $2.12 per share, under our 2022 Stock Incentive Plan.

These are management warrants that vest over a period of 24 months in four equal installments (being 25% every six months), measured from the date of issuance, subject to the relevant holder still being employed by the Company at each respective vesting date.

Policies and Practices Related to the Grant of Certain Equity Awards

During 2025, we granted warrants to employees, including our named executive officers. We do not take material nonpublic information ("MNPI") into account in determining the timing of grants of stock options, stock appreciation rights, or similar instruments with option-like features. Further, we have not timed the disclosure of MNPI for the purpose of affecting the value of executive compensation. The only options we grant are issued pursuant to our equity incentive plan and the only similar instruments with option-like features that we grant are the warrants granted to certain non-employee directors upon hiring and the management warrants granted to our named executive officers in 2025. The process of offering these instruments does not take into consideration the disclosure of material nonpublic information; however, we do not believe we were in possession of any material nonpublic information at the time the management warrants and the director warrants (described below) were granted.

Name		Grant Date		Number of securities underlying the award				Exercise price of the award ($/sh)				Grant date fair value of the award				Percentage change in the closing market price of the securities underlying the award between the trading day ending immediately prior to the disclosure of material nonpublic information and the trading day beginning immediately following the disclosure of material nonpublic information

A COPY OF THE COMPANY'S ANNUAL REPORT ON FORM 10-K FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2025 (WITHOUT EXHIBITS) ACCOMPANIES THIS PROXY STATEMENT. NO PART OF THE ANNUAL REPORT IS INCORPORATED HEREIN AND NO PART THEREOF IS TO BE CONSIDERED PROXY SOLICITING MATERIAL. THE COMPANY WILL FURNISH WITHOUT CHARGE TO EACH PERSON WHOSE PROXY IS BEING SOLICITED, UPON WRITTEN REQUEST OF ANY SUCH PERSON, ANY EXHIBIT DESCRIBED IN THE LIST ACCOMPANYING THE FORM 10-K. REQUESTS FOR COPIES OF SUCH EXHIBIT(S) SHOULD BE DIRECTED TO THE COMPANY'S CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER AT 1907 WAYZATA BOULEVARD, SUITE 205, WAYZATA MN 55391.

DISCRETIONARY PROXY VOTING AUTHORITY/

UNTIMELY SHAREHOLDER PROPOSALS

Rule 14a-4(c) promulgated under the Exchange Act governs our use of discretionary proxy voting authority with respect to a shareholder proposal that a shareholder has not sought to include in our proxy statement. The Rule provides that if a proponent of a proposal fails to notify us of the proposal at least 45 days before the date of mailing of the prior year's proxy statement, then the management proxies will be allowed to use their discretionary voting authority when the proposal is raised at the meeting, without any discussion of the matter in the proxy statement.

With respect to our 2027 annual shareholder meeting, if we are not provided notice of a shareholder proposal which the shareholder has not previously sought to include in our proxy statement by May [●], 2027, then our management proxies will be allowed to use their discretionary authority as outlined above. If, however, the date of our 2027 annual shareholder meeting is changed by more than 30 days from the date of this annual meeting (i.e., if it is held earlier than July 19, 2027, or later than September 17, 2027), then the deadline for submitting a shareholder proposal will be a reasonable time before we begin to print and send our proxy materials for our 2026 annual shareholder meeting.

SOLICITATION

We will bear the cost of preparing, assembling and mailing the notice of meeting, proxy statement, proxy, Annual Report and other material that may be sent to the shareholders in connection with this solicitation. Brokerage houses and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries may be requested to forward soliciting material to the beneficial owners of Company stock, in which case they may be reimbursed by us for their expenses in doing so. Proxies may be solicited personally, by email or by special letter.

OTHER MATTERS/PROPOSALS

The Board and management know of no other matters that will be presented for consideration at the annual meeting. Nevertheless, because it is possible that matters of which the Board and management are presently unaware may come before the meeting (or any adjournments), the proxies confer discretionary authority with respect to acting thereon, and the persons named in such properly executed proxies intend to vote, act and consent in accordance with their best judgment with respect thereto. Upon receipt of such proxies (in the form enclosed) in time for voting, the shares represented thereby will be voted as indicated thereon and in the proxy statement.

HOUSEHOLDING OF MATERIALS

Some banks, brokers and other nominee record holders may be participating in the practice of "householding" proxy statements and annual reports. This means that only one copy of our proxy statement may have been sent to multiple Company shareholders in each household unless otherwise instructed by such Company shareholders. We will deliver promptly a separate copy of the proxy statement to any Company shareholder upon written or oral request to our Chief Financial Officer, at 1907 Wayzata Boulevard, Suite 205, Wayzata MN 55391, telephone: (952) 479-1920. Any shareholder wishing to receive separate copies of our proxy statement or annual report in the future, or any shareholder receiving multiple copies and who would like to receive only one copy per household, should contact their bank, broker, or other nominee record holder, or they may contact us at the above address and phone number.

I.

The name of this corporation is Sui Group Holdings Limited (the "Corporation").

II.

The address of the registered office of the Corporation in the State of Delaware is 251 Little Falls Drive, in the City of Wilmington, County of New Castle, Zip Code 19808, and the name of the registered agent of the Corporation in the State of Delaware at such address is the Corporation Service Company.

III.

The purpose of the Corporation is to engage in any lawful act or activity for which a corporation may be organized under the DGCL.

IV.

A. The Corporation is authorized to issue two classes of stock to be designated, respectively, "common stock" and "preferred stock." The total number of shares which the Corporation is authorized to issue is 2,001,000,000 shares. Two billion (2,000,000,000) shares shall be common stock, each having a par value of $0.001 per share. One million (1,000,000) shares shall be preferred stock, each having a par value of $0.001 per share.

B. The preferred stock may be issued from time to time in one or more series. The Board of Directors of the Corporation (the "Board") is hereby expressly authorized, by resolution adopted and filed in accordance with law, to provide out of unissued shares of the preferred stock that have not been designated as to series, in one or more series of preferred stock, and, with respect to each such series, to fix the number of shares in each such series, the designation thereof, the powers (including voting powers, full or limited, if any), preferences, and relative, participating, optional, or other rights and the qualifications, limitations, or restrictions thereof, as shall be stated and expressed in the resolution or resolutions adopted and filed by the Board in accordance with the DGCL. The number of authorized shares of preferred stock, or any series thereof, may be increased or decreased (but not below the number of shares thereof then outstanding) by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of the outstanding shares of stock of the Corporation entitled to vote thereon, without a separate vote of the holders of the preferred stock, or of any series thereof, unless a vote of any such holders is required pursuant to the terms of any series of preferred stock. Any shares of any series of preferred stock purchased, exchanged, converted or otherwise acquired by the Corporation, in any manner whatsoever shall be retired and cancelled promptly after the acquisition thereof. All such shares shall upon their cancellation become authorized but unissued shares of preferred stock, without designation as to series, and may be reissued as part of any series of preferred stock created by resolution or resolutions of the Board, subject to the conditions and restrictions on issuance set forth in this Certificate of Incorporation or in such resolution or resolutions.

45

C. Each outstanding share of common stock shall entitle the holder thereof to one vote on each matter properly submitted to the stockholders of the Corporation for their vote; provided, however, that, except as otherwise required by law, holders of common stock shall not be entitled to vote on any amendment to this Certificate of Incorporation (including any certificate of designation filed with respect to any series of preferred stock) that relates solely to the terms of one or more outstanding series of preferred stock if the holders of such affected series are entitled, either separately or together as a class with the holders of one or more other such series, to vote thereon by law or pursuant to this Certificate of Incorporation (including any certificate of designation filed with respect to any series of preferred stock).

Any director elected in accordance with the preceding sentence shall hold office for the remainder of the full term of the director for which the vacancy was created or occurred and until such director's successor shall have been duly elected and qualified or such director's earlier death, resignation or removal.

Delaware Bylaws

[FORM OF] BYLAWS

OF

SUI GROUP HOLDINGS LIMITED

(a Delaware corporation)

Amended and Restated as of [●], 2026

ARTICLE I

Stockholders

SECTION 1. Annual Meetings. Unless directors are elected by written consent in lieu of an annual meeting as permitted by the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, as it may be amended and supplemented from time to time (the "DGCL"), the annual meeting of stockholders for the election of directors and for the transaction of such other business as may properly come before the meeting shall be held each year at such date and time, at the principal executive office of Sui Group Holdings Limited (the "Corporation"), or at such other place or places (if any) within or without the State of Delaware, as the Board of Directors of the Corporation (the "Board") shall determine. The Board may, in its sole discretion, determine that the annual meeting shall not be held at any place, but may instead be held solely by means of remote communication as provided under the DGCL.

SECTION 2. Special Meetings.

(a) Special meetings of stockholders for the transaction of such business as may properly come before the meeting or for any other purpose or purposes may be called only (i) by the Chief Executive Officer, (ii) by the Chief Financial Officer, (iii) by the Chief Investment Officer, (iv) by or at the direction of the Board or any two members thereof, or (v) by the Secretary of the Corporation, following his or her receipt at the principal executive office of the Corporation of one or more written demands to call a special meeting of the stockholders submitted by or on behalf of the record holder or holders of at least twenty percent (20%) of the voting power of the issued and outstanding shares of the Corporation (the "Requisite Percentage").

(b) Special meetings of the stockholders of the Corporation (including those called by the Secretary following receipt of a written demand or demands from stockholders holding the Requisite Percentage in accordance with clause (iv) of Section 2(a) of this Article I) shall be held on such date and time, at the principal executive office of the Corporation, or at such other place or places (if any) within or without the State of Delaware as shall be designated by the Board and stated in the Corporation's notice of the special meeting. In the case of a special meeting called by the Secretary following receipt of a written demand or demands from stockholders holding the Requisite Percentage in accordance with clause (iv) of Section 2(a), of this Article I the date of such special meeting, as fixed by the Board in accordance with this Section 2(b), shall not be more than ninety (90) days after the date a demand or demands by stockholders holding the Requisite Percentage have been received by the Secretary of the Corporation at the principal executive offices of the Corporation in accordance with this Section 2.

Table of Contents

(c) In lieu of holding a special meeting of stockholders at a designated place, the Board may, in its sole discretion, determine that any special meeting of stockholders may be held solely by means of remote communication as provided under the DGCL.

SECTION 3. Notice of Meetings. The Corporation shall give notice of any annual or special meeting of stockholders. Notice of all meetings of the stockholders shall state the place (if any), date and hour of the meeting, the record date for determining stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting, if such record date is different from the record date for determining stockholders entitled to notice of the meeting, and the means of remote communications, if any, by which stockholders and proxyholders may be deemed to be present in person and vote at such meeting. In the case of a special meeting, the notice shall state the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called. Unless otherwise provided by applicable law or the Certificate of Incorporation, notice shall be given to each stockholder not less than ten (10) nor more than sixty (60) days before the date of the meeting.

SECTION 4. Waiver. Whenever the giving of any notice to stockholders is required by applicable law, the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, a waiver thereof, given by the person entitled to said notice, in writing signed by the person, or by electronic transmission, whether before or after the event as to which such notice is required, shall be deemed equivalent to notice to the full extent permitted by law. If such waiver is given by electronic transmission, the electronic transmission must either set forth or be submitted with information from which it can be determined that the electronic transmission was authorized by the person waiving notice. Attendance by a stockholder at a meeting shall constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting except when the stockholder attends a meeting for the express purpose of objecting, at the beginning of the meeting, to the transaction of any business on the ground that the meeting has not been lawfully called or convened. Neither the business to be transacted at, nor the purposes of, any regular or special meeting of the stockholders need be specified in any waiver of notice.

SECTION 5. Stockholder Lists. The Corporation shall prepare, no later than the tenth (10th) day before each meeting of stockholders, a complete list of the stockholders entitled to vote at any meeting of stockholders; provided, however, if the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to vote is less than ten (10) days before the meeting date, the list shall reflect the stockholders entitled to vote as of the tenth (10th) day before the meeting date, arranged in alphabetical order, and showing the address of each stockholder and the number of shares of each class of capital stock of the Corporation registered in the name of each stockholder. Nothing contained in this Section 5 shall require the Corporation to include electronic mail addresses or other electronic contact information on such list. Such list shall be open to the examination of any stockholder for any purpose germane to the meeting for a period of ten (10) days ending on the day before the meeting date: (i) on a reasonably accessible electronic network, provided that the information required to gain access to such list is provided in the notice of the meeting, or (ii) during ordinary business hours, at the principal place of business of the Corporation. In the event that the Corporation determines to make the list available on an electronic network, the Corporation may take reasonable steps to ensure that such information is available only to stockholders of the Corporation.

52

Table of Contents

Except as provided by applicable law, the stock ledger of the Corporation shall be the only evidence as to who are the stockholders entitled to examine the stock ledger and the list of stockholders or to vote in person or by proxy at any meeting of stockholders.

SECTION 6. Quorum; Adjournment. Except as otherwise provided by law, the Corporation's Certificate of Incorporation, or by these Bylaws, the presence, in person or represented by proxy, of the holders of one-third of the aggregate voting power of the stock issued and outstanding, entitled to vote thereat, shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at all meetings of the stockholders. If there be no such quorum, the holders of a majority of such shares so present or represented by proxy, although less than a quorum, or the presiding officer of such meeting, shall have the power to adjourn the meeting to another time and place or to take place by remote communication. Notice need not be given of any such adjourned meeting if the time, date and place, if any, and the means of remote communications, if any, thereof are (i) announced at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken, (ii) displayed, during the time scheduled for the meeting, on the same electronic network used to enable stockholders and proxyholders to participate in the meeting by means of remote communication, or (iii) set forth in the notice of the meeting. At the adjourned meeting, the stockholders may transact any business that might have been transacted at the original meeting. If an adjournment is for more than thirty (30) days or, if after an adjournment, a new record date is fixed for determining the stockholders entitled to vote at the adjourned meeting, a notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given to each stockholder entitled to vote at the meeting.

SECTION 7. Proposals Regarding Business Other Than Director Nominations.

(a) The business transacted at any special meeting of stockholders is limited to the purpose or purposes stated in the notice of the meeting given pursuant to Section 3 of this Article I. At an annual meeting of the stockholders, only business (other than the nomination and election of directors, which is subject to Sections 16 and 17 of Article II) that has been properly brought before the stockholder meeting in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 7 of this Article I shall be conducted. To be properly brought before a meeting of stockholders, such business must be brought before the meeting (i) pursuant to the Corporation's notice of meeting, (ii) by or at the direction of the Board or any committee thereof, or (iii) by any stockholder of the Corporation who (A) was a stockholder of record of the Corporation when the notice required by this Section 7 is delivered to the Secretary and at the time of the meeting, (B) is entitled to vote at the meeting and (C) complies with the notice and other provisions of this Section 7 of this Article I. Subject to Section 7(j) of this Article I, and except with respect to nominations or elections of directors, which are governed by Sections 16 and 17 of Article II, Section 7(a)(iii) of this Article I is the exclusive means by which a stockholder may bring business before an annual meeting of stockholders; provided that if Rule 14a-8 of the Exchange Act (or any successor rule) is applicable, a stockholder may not bring business before any annual meeting if the stockholder fails to meet the requirements of such rule. Any business brought before an annual meeting in accordance with Section 7(a)(iii) of this Article I is referred to as "Stockholder Business."

53

Table of Contents

(b) For business to be properly brought before an annual meeting by a stockholder, timely written notice thereof (the "Notice of Business") must be made, given by or on behalf of a stockholder of record of the Corporation.

If, however, the date of the annual meeting is more than thirty (30) days before or sixty (60) days after such anniversary date, notice by a stockholder is timely only if so received (i) no earlier than one hundred twenty (120) days and no later than ninety (90) days before the annual meeting or (ii) no later than the later of ninety (90) days before such annual meeting and the tenth (10th) day after the first public announcement of the date of the annual meeting. Except to the extent otherwise required by law, the adjournment, postponement or deferral of an annual meeting will not commence a new time period (or extend any time period) for the giving of a stockholder's notice as required above.

(c) The Notice of Business must set forth:

SECTION 9. Required Vote. Except as otherwise provided by law, the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws:

(a) Directors shall be elected by a plurality in voting power of the shares present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the election of directors; and

(b) Whenever any corporate action other than the election of directors is to be taken, it shall be authorized by the vote of the majority in voting power of the shares present in person or represented by proxy at the stockholder meeting and entitled to vote on the subject matter.

SECTION 10. Voting; Proxies.

(a) Unless otherwise provided by the DGCL or in the Certificate of Incorporation, every stockholder entitled to vote at any meeting of stockholders shall be entitled to one vote for each share of stock held by such stockholder which has voting power upon the matter in question. Each stockholder entitled to vote at a meeting of stockholders or to express consent or dissent to corporate action in writing without a meeting may authorize another person or persons to act for such stockholder by proxy, but no such proxy shall be voted or acted upon after three years from its date, unless the proxy expressly provides for a longer period. A proxy shall be irrevocable if it states that it is irrevocable and if, and only so long as, it is coupled with an interest sufficient in law to support an irrevocable power. Any stockholder directly or indirectly soliciting proxies from other stockholders must use a proxy card color other than white, which shall be reserved for the exclusive use by the Board.

(b) Any action required or permitted to be taken at any meeting of stockholders may, except as otherwise required by law or the Certificate of Incorporation, be taken without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote, if a consent in writing, setting forth the action so taken, shall be signed by the holders of record of the issued and outstanding capital stock of the Corporation having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote thereon were present and voted, and shall be delivered to the Corporation in the manner required by Section 228 of the DGCL.

SECTION 11. Inspectors. The Corporation may, and shall if required by law, in advance of any meeting of stockholders, appoint one or more inspectors of election, who may be employees of the Corporation, to act at the meeting or any adjournment thereof and to make a written report thereof. The Corporation may designate one or more persons as alternate inspectors to replace any inspector who fails to act. If no inspector so appointed or designated is able to act at a meeting of stockholders, the person presiding at the meeting shall appoint one or more inspectors to act at the meeting. Each inspector, before entering upon the discharge of his or her duties, shall take and sign an oath faithfully to execute the duties of inspector with strict impartiality and according to the best of such inspector's ability. The inspector or inspectors so appointed or designated shall (i) ascertain the number of shares of capital stock of the Corporation outstanding and the voting power of each such share, (ii) determine the shares of capital stock of the Corporation represented at the meeting and the validity of proxies and ballots, (iii) count all votes and ballots, (iv) determine and retain for a reasonable period a record of the disposition of any challenges made to any determination by the inspectors, and (v) certify their determination of the number of shares of capital stock of the Corporation represented at the meeting and such inspectors' count of all votes and ballots. Such certification and report shall specify such other information as may be required by law. In determining the validity and counting of proxies and ballots cast at any meeting of stockholders of the Corporation, the inspectors may consider such information as is permitted by applicable law. No person who is a candidate for an office at an election may serve as an inspector at such election.

SECTION 12. Remote Communication. Stockholders and proxyholders not physically present at a meeting of stockholders may, by means of remote communication: (i) participate in a meeting of stockholders; and (ii) be deemed present in person and vote at a meeting of stockholders, whether such meeting is to be held at a designated place or solely by means of remote communication, provided that (A) the Corporation shall implement reasonable measures to verify that each person deemed present and permitted to vote at the meeting by means of remote communication is a stockholder or proxyholder, (B) the Corporation shall implement reasonable measures to provide such stockholders and proxyholders a reasonable opportunity to participate in the meeting and to vote on matters submitted to the stockholders, including an opportunity to read or hear the proceedings of the meeting substantially concurrently with such proceedings, and (C) if any stockholder or proxyholder votes or takes other action at the meeting by means of remote communication, a record of such votes or other action shall be maintained by the Corporation.

Whenever the giving of any notice to directors is required by applicable law, the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, a waiver thereof, in writing or by electronic transmission, by the director entitled to the notice, whether before or after such notice is required, shall be deemed equivalent to notice. Attendance by a director at a meeting shall constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting except when the director attends a meeting for the express purpose of objecting, at the beginning of the meeting, to the transaction of any business on the ground that the meeting was not lawfully called or convened.

Any person (whether or not then a director) may provide, whether through instruction to an agent or otherwise, that a consent to action will be effective at a future time (including a time determined upon the happening of an event), no later than 60 days after such instruction is given or such provision is made and such consent shall be deemed to have been given for purposes of this subsection at such effective time so long as such person is then a director and did not revoke the consent prior to such time. Any such consent shall be revocable prior to becoming effective. After an action is taken, the consent or consents relating thereto shall be filed with the minutes of the proceedings of the Board, or the committee thereof, in the same paper or electronic form as the minutes are maintained.

SECTION 17. Proxy Access for Director Nominations.

(a) Proxy Access Eligibility. Whenever the Board solicits proxies with respect to the election of directors at an annual meeting of stockholders, subject to the provisions of this Section 17 of this Article II, the Corporation shall include in its proxy statement for such annual meeting, in addition to any persons nominated for election by the Board or any committee thereof, the name, together with the Required Information (as defined below), of any person nominated for election (the "Stockholder Nominee") to the Board by a stockholder or group of no more than twenty (20) stockholders that satisfies the requirements of this Section 17 of this Article II (the "Eligible Stockholder") and that expressly elects, at the time of providing the notice required by this Section 17 of this Article II (the "Notice of Proxy Access Nomination"), to have such nominee included in the Corporation's proxy materials pursuant to this Section 17 of this Article II. For purposes of this Section 17 of this Article II, the "Required Information" that the Corporation will include in its proxy statement is (i) the information provided to the Secretary of the Corporation concerning the Stockholder Nominee and the Eligible Stockholder that is required to be disclosed in the Corporation's proxy statement pursuant to Section 14 of the Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, and (ii) if the Eligible Stockholder so elects, a Supporting Statement (as defined below). The Required Information must be provided with the Notice of Proxy Access Nomination.

(b) Maximum Number of Stockholder Nominees. The maximum number of Stockholder Nominees nominated by all Eligible Stockholders that will be included in the Corporation's proxy materials with respect to an annual meeting of stockholders shall not exceed the greater of (i) two (2) or (ii) twenty percent (20%) of the number of directors in office as of the last day on which a Notice of Proxy Access Nomination may be delivered pursuant to and in accordance with this Section 17 of this Article II (the "Final Proxy Access Nomination Date") or, if such amount is not a whole number, the closest whole number below twenty percent (20%). In the event that one or more vacancies for any reason occurs on the Board after the Final Proxy Access Nomination Date, but before the date of the annual meeting, and the Board resolves to reduce the size of the Board in connection therewith, the maximum number of Stockholder Nominees included in the Corporation's proxy materials shall be calculated based on the number of directors in office as so reduced. For purposes of determining when the maximum number of Stockholder Nominees provided for in this Section 17 of this Article II has been reached, each of the following persons shall be counted as one of the Stockholder Nominees:

65

Table of Contents

(1) any individual nominated by an Eligible Stockholder for inclusion in the Corporation's proxy materials pursuant to this Section 17 of this Article II and whose nomination is subsequently withdrawn;

(2) any individual nominated by an Eligible Stockholder for inclusion in the Corporation's proxy materials pursuant to this Section 17 of this Article II and whom the Board decides to nominate for election to the Board; and

(3) any director in office, as of the Final Proxy Access Nomination Date, who was included in the Corporation's proxy materials as a Stockholder Nominee for either of the two preceding annual meetings of stockholders (including any individual counted as a Stockholder Nominee pursuant to the immediately preceding clause (2)) and whom the Board decides to nominate for re-election to the Board.

Any Eligible Stockholder submitting more than one Stockholder Nominee for inclusion in the Corporation's proxy materials pursuant to this Section 17 of this Article II shall rank such Stockholder Nominees based on the order in which the Eligible Stockholder desires such Stockholder Nominees to be selected for inclusion in the Corporation's proxy materials. In the event that the number of Stockholder Nominees submitted by Eligible Stockholders pursuant to this Section 17 of this Article II exceeds the maximum number of Stockholder Nominees provided for in this Section 17 of this Article II, the highest ranking Stockholder Nominee who meets the requirements of this Section 17 of this Article II from each Eligible Stockholder will be selected for inclusion in the Corporation's proxy materials until the maximum number is reached, going in order of the amount (largest to smallest) of shares of common stock of the Corporation each Eligible Stockholder disclosed as owned in its Notice of Proxy Access Nomination. If the maximum number is not reached after the highest ranking Stockholder Nominee who meets the requirements of this Section 17 of this Article II from each Eligible Stockholder has been selected, then the next highest ranking Stockholder Nominee who meets the requirements of this Section 17 of this Article II from each Eligible Stockholder will be selected for inclusion in the Corporation's proxy materials, and this process will continue as many times as necessary, following the same order each time, until the maximum number is reached.

(c) Required Shares and Minimum Holding Period. In order to make a nomination pursuant to this Section 17 of this Article II, an Eligible Stockholder must have owned (as defined below) at least three percent (3%) of the Corporation's outstanding common stock (the "Required Shares") continuously for at least three years (the "Minimum Holding Period") as of both the date the Notice of Proxy Access Nomination is delivered to the Secretary of the Corporation in accordance with this Section 17 of this Article II and the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to receive notice of the annual meeting, and must continue to own the Required Shares through the date of the annual meeting. For purposes of this Section 17 of this Article II, an Eligible Stockholder shall be deemed to "own" only those outstanding shares of common stock of the Corporation as to which the stockholder possesses both:

(ii) borrowed by such stockholder or any of its affiliates for any purpose or purchased by such stockholder or any of its affiliates pursuant to an agreement to resell, or

A stockholder shall "own" shares held in the name of a nominee or other intermediary so long as the stockholder retains the right to instruct how the shares are voted with respect to the election of directors and possesses the full economic interest in the shares. A person's ownership of shares shall be deemed to continue during any period in which (i) the stockholder has loaned such shares, provided that the person has the power to recall such loaned shared on three (3) business days' notice or (ii) the stockholder has delegated any voting power by means of a proxy, power of attorney or other instrument or arrangement which is revocable at any time by the stockholder. The terms "owned," "owning" and other variations of the word "own" shall have correlative meanings. Whether outstanding shares of the common stock of the Corporation are "owned" for these purposes shall be determined by the Board or any committee thereof.

If such a waiver is given by electronic transmission, the electronic transmission must either set forth or be submitted with information from which it can be determined that the electronic transmission was authorized by the stockholder.

If the Board so fixes a record date for determining the stockholders entitled to notice of any meeting of stockholders, such date shall also be the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to vote at such meeting, unless the Board determines, at the time it fixes the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to notice of such meeting, that a later date on or before the date of the meeting shall be the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to vote at such meeting. If no record date is fixed by the Board, the record date for determining stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall be at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which notice is given, or, if notice is waived, at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which the meeting is held.

The shares of the Corporation's stock may be certificated or uncertificated, as provided under the DGCL, and shall be entered in the books of the Corporation and registered as they are issued. The Board may provide by resolution or resolutions that some or all of any or all classes and series of the shares of the Corporation will be uncertificated shares. Any such resolution shall not apply to shares represented by a certificate until such certificate is surrendered to the Corporation. Any certificates representing shares of stock shall be in such form as shall be approved by the Board.

Any and all signatures on any such certificate may be facsimiles. In case any officer, transfer agent or registrar who has signed or whose facsimile signature has been placed upon a certificate shall have ceased to be such officer, transfer agent or registrar before such certificate is issued, it may be issued by the Corporation with the same effect as if he were such officer, transfer agent or registrar at the date of issue.

Fractional shares shall, but scrip or warrants for fractional shares shall not (unless otherwise expressly provided therein), entitle the holder to exercise voting rights, to receive dividends thereon, to participate in the distribution of any assets in the event of liquidation, and otherwise to exercise rights as a holder of capital stock of the class or series to which such fractional shares belong.

SECTION 4. Rules and Regulations. In addition to, and without limiting, those powers set forth in Section 1 of Article II, the Board shall have the power and authority to make all such rules and regulations as it may deem expedient concerning the issue, transfer and registration of certificates representing shares of the Corporation.

(a) Subject to Section 3 of this Article IX, the Corporation shall indemnify, to the full extent that it shall have power under applicable law to do so and in a manner permitted by such law, any person who is made or threatened to be made a party to or is otherwise involved (as a witness or otherwise) in any threatened, pending, or completed action, suit, or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative (hereinafter, a "Proceeding"), by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director or officer of the Corporation, or while serving as a director or officer of the Corporation, is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee, or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, or other enterprise, including service with respect to an employee benefit plan (collectively, "Another Enterprise"), against expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines (including ERISA excise taxes or penalties) and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him or her in connection with such Proceeding if he or she acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful.

(b) The Corporation may indemnify, to the full extent that it shall have power under applicable law to do so and in a manner permitted by such law, any person who is made or threatened to be made a party to or is otherwise involved (as a witness or otherwise) in any threatened, pending, or completed Proceeding, by reason of the fact that such person is or was an employee or agent of the Corporation, or while not serving as a director or officer of the Corporation, is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee, or agent of Another Enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines (including ERISA excise taxes or penalties) and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him or her in connection with such Proceeding if he or she acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful.

(c) To the extent that a present or former director or officer of the Corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any threatened, pending, or completed Proceeding referred to in Section 145(a) or (b) of the DGCL, or in defense of any claim, issue, or matter therein, he or she shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him or her in connection therewith.

79

Table of Contents

(d) The termination of any Proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the person seeking indemnification did not act in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful.

SECTION 2. Advancement of Expenses.

(a) Subject to Section 3 of this Article IX, with respect to any person who is made or threatened to be made a party to or is otherwise involved (as a witness or otherwise) in any threatened, pending, or completed Proceeding, by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director or officer of the Corporation or while serving as a director or officer of the Corporation, is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee, or agent of Another Enterprise, the Corporation shall pay the expenses (including attorneys' fees) incurred by such person in defending any such Proceeding in advance of its final disposition (hereinafter an "advancement of expenses"); provided, however, that any advancement of expenses shall be made only upon receipt of an undertaking (hereinafter an "undertaking") by such person to repay all amounts advanced if it shall ultimately be determined by final judicial decision from which there is no further right to appeal that such person is not entitled to be indemnified for such expenses under this Article IX or otherwise.

(b) With respect to any person who is made or threatened to be made a party to or is otherwise involved (as a witness or otherwise) in any threatened, pending, or completed Proceeding, by reason of the fact that such person is or was an employee or agent of the Corporation, or while not serving as a director or officer of the Corporation, is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee, or agent of Another Enterprise, the Corporation may, in its discretion and upon such terms and conditions, if any, as the Corporation deems appropriate, pay the expenses (including attorneys' fees) incurred by such person in defending any such Proceeding in advance of its final disposition.

SECTION 3. Actions Initiated Against the Corporation. Anything in Section 1(a) or Section 2(a) of this Article IX to the contrary notwithstanding, except as provided in Section 5(b) of this Article IX, with respect to a Proceeding initiated against the Corporation by a person who is or was a director or officer of the Corporation (whether initiated by such person in or by reason of such capacity or in or by reason of any other capacity, including as a director, officer, employee, or agent of Another Enterprise), the Corporation shall not be required to indemnify or to advance expenses (including attorneys' fees) to such person in connection with prosecuting such Proceeding (or part thereof) or in defending any counterclaim, cross-claim, affirmative defense, or like claim of the Corporation in such Proceeding (or part thereof) unless such Proceeding was authorized by the Board.

SECTION 4. Contract Rights. The rights to indemnification and advancement of expenses conferred upon any current or former director or officer of the Corporation pursuant to this Article IX (whether by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director or officer of the Corporation, or while serving as a director or officer of the Corporation, is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee, or agent of Another Enterprise) shall be contract rights, shall vest when such person becomes a director or officer of the Corporation, and shall continue as vested contract rights even if such person ceases to be a director or officer of the Corporation. Any amendment, elimination, repeal, or modification of, or adoption of any provision inconsistent with, this Article IX (or any provision hereof) shall not adversely affect any right to indemnification or advancement of expenses granted to any person pursuant hereto with respect to any act or omission of such person occurring prior to the time of such amendment, elimination, repeal, modification, or adoption (regardless of whether the Proceeding relating to such acts or omissions, or any proceeding relating to such person's rights to indemnification or to advancement of expenses, is commenced before or after the time of such amendment, elimination, repeal, modification, or adoption), and any such amendment, elimination, repeal, modification, or adoption that would adversely affect such person's rights to indemnification or advancement of expenses hereunder shall be ineffective as to such person, except with respect to any threatened, pending, or completed Proceeding that relates to or arises from (and only to the extent such Proceeding relates to or arises from) any act or omission of such person occurring after the effective time of such amendment, repeal, modification, or adoption.

SECTION 5. Claims.

(a) If (i) a claim under Section 1(a) of this Article IX with respect to any right to indemnification is not paid in full by the Corporation within sixty (60) days after a written demand has been received by the Corporation or (ii) a claim under Section 2(a) of this Article VI with respect to any right to the advancement of expenses is not paid in full by the Corporation within thirty (30) days after a written demand has been received by the Corporation, then the person seeking to enforce a right to indemnification or to an advancement of expenses, as the case may be, may at any time thereafter bring suit against the Corporation to recover the unpaid amount of the claim.

(b) If successful in whole or in part in any suit brought pursuant to Section 5(a) of this Article IX, or in a suit brought by the Corporation to recover an advancement of expenses (whether pursuant to the terms of an undertaking or otherwise), the person seeking to enforce a right to indemnification or an advancement of expenses hereunder or the person from whom the Corporation sought to recover an advancement of expenses, as the case may be, shall be entitled to be paid by the Corporation the reasonable expenses (including attorneys' fees) of prosecuting or defending such suit.

81

Table of Contents

(c) In any suit brought by a person seeking to enforce a right to indemnification hereunder (but not a suit brought by a person seeking to enforce a right to an advancement of expenses hereunder), it shall be a defense that the person seeking to enforce a right to indemnification has not met any applicable standard for indemnification under applicable law. With respect to any suit brought by a person seeking to enforce a right to indemnification or right to advancement of expenses hereunder or any suit brought by the Corporation to recover an advancement of expenses (whether pursuant to the terms of an undertaking or otherwise), neither (i) the failure of the Corporation to have made a determination prior to commencement of such suit that indemnification of such person is proper in the circumstances because such person has met the applicable standards of conduct under applicable law, nor (ii) an actual determination by the Corporation that such person has not met such applicable standards of conduct, shall create a presumption that such person has not met the applicable standards of conduct or, in a case brought by such person seeking to enforce a right to indemnification, be a defense to such suit.

(d) In any suit brought by a person seeking to enforce a right to indemnification or to an advancement of expenses hereunder, or by the Corporation to recover an advancement of expenses (whether pursuant to the terms of an undertaking or otherwise), the burden shall be on the Corporation to prove that the person seeking to enforce a right to indemnification or to an advancement of expenses or the person from whom the Corporation seeks to recover an advancement of expenses is not entitled to be indemnified, or to such an advancement of expenses, under this Article IX or otherwise.

SECTION 6. Determination of Entitlement to Indemnification. Any indemnification required or permitted under this Article IX (unless ordered by a court) shall be made by the Corporation only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the present or former director, officer, employee or agent is proper in the circumstances because he or she has met all applicable standards of conduct set forth in this Article IX and Section 145 of the DGCL. Such determination shall be made, with respect to a person who is a director or officer of the Corporation at the time of such determination, (i) by a majority vote of the directors who are not parties to such Proceeding, even though less than a quorum; (ii) by a committee of such directors designated by majority vote of such directors, even though less than a quorum; (iii) if there are no such directors, or if such directors so direct, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion; or (iv) by the stockholders. Such determination shall be made, with respect to any person who is not a director or officer of the Corporation at the time of such determination, in the manner determined by the Board (including in such manner as may be set forth in any general or specific action of the Board applicable to indemnification claims by such person) or in the manner set forth in any agreement to which such person and the Corporation are parties.

SECTION 7. Non-Exclusive Rights. The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided in this Article IX shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which any person may be entitled under any bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors, or otherwise, both as to action in such person's official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office, and shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be such director, officer, employee, or agent and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors, and administrators of such person.

SECTION 9. Severability. If any provision or provisions of this Article IX shall be held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable for any reason whatsoever: (1) the validity, legality, and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Article IX (including, without limitation, each portion of any paragraph or clause containing any such provision held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, that is not itself held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable) shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby; and (2) to the fullest extent possible, the provisions of this Article IX (including, without limitation, each such portion of any paragraph or clause containing any such provision held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable) shall be construed so as to give effect to the intent manifested by the provision held invalid, illegal, or unenforceable.

SECTION 10. Miscellaneous. For purposes of this Article IX: (i) references to serving at the request of the Corporation as a director or officer of Another Enterprise shall include any service as a director or officer of the Corporation that imposes duties on, or involves services by, such director or officer with respect to an employee benefit plan; (ii) references to serving at the request of the Corporation as an employee or agent of Another Enterprise shall include any service as an employee or agent of the Corporation that imposes duties on, or involves services by, such employee or agent with respect to an employee benefit plan; (iii) a person who acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in the interest of the participants and beneficiaries of an employee benefit plan shall be deemed to have acted in a manner not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation; and (iv) references to a director of Another Enterprise shall include, in the case of any entity that is not managed by a board of directors, such other position, such as manager or trustee or member of the governing body of such entity, that entails responsibility for the management and direction of such entity's affairs, including, without limitation, general partner of any partnership (general or limited) and manager or managing member of any limited liability company.

Any Bylaws altered, amended, or made by the stockholders may be altered, amended, or repealed by either the Board or the stockholders, in the manner set forth in this Article X, except a Bylaw amendment adopted by the stockholders that specifies the votes that shall be necessary for the election of directors shall not be amended or repealed by the Board.
