PROXY STATEMENT

FOR THE 2026 ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS

GENERAL INFORMATION

This proxy statement (this "Proxy Statement") contains information related to the Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the "Annual Meeting") of ChronoScale Holdings Corporation (collectively, "we," "us," "our" or the "Company") to be held on November 6, 2026, at 12:00 p.m., Eastern Time. The Annual Meeting will be held virtually via the Internet, or at such other time and place to which the Annual Meeting may be adjourned or postponed. In order to attend our Annual Meeting, you must log in to www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/CHRN2026 using the 16-digit control number on the proxy card or voting instruction form that accompanied the proxy materials.

Proxies for the Annual Meeting are being solicited by the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board"). This Proxy Statement is first being made available to stockholders on or about September 23, 2026.

IMPORTANT NOTICE REGARDING THE AVAILABILITY OF PROXY MATERIALS FOR THE ANNUAL MEETING TO BE HELD ON NOVEMBER 6, 2026.

Our proxy materials, including our Proxy Statement for the Annual Meeting, our annual report for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2026, and proxy card are available on the Internet at www.proxyvote.com, and at the SEC's website at www.sec.gov. Under the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") rules, we are pleased to take advantage of notice and access and to furnish proxy materials to our stockholders over the Internet.

What was the structure of the Company immediately following the Business Combination?

Immediately after the Business Combination (as defined below), we operated our business through two wholly-owned subsidiaries: ChronoScale Corporation, a Nevada corporation (f/k/a Applied Digital Cloud Corporation, a Nevada corporation) ("Cloud"), and Ekso Bionics, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Legacy Ekso"). Following the Holding Company Transaction (as defined and described below), Applied Digital Cloud Corporation changed its name to ChronoScale Corporation. All references to "Cloud" prior to the Holding Company Transaction are to Applied Digital Cloud Corporation and after the Holding Company Transaction, to ChronoScale Corporation. Through Cloud, we have been providing cloud services to customers at third-party colocation centers located in Colorado, Minnesota and Utah, such as artificial intelligence and machine learning developers, seeking to develop their advanced products (the "Cloud Business"). Customers pay a fixed rate in exchange for an energized space supported by Cloud-provided equipment. Through Legacy Ekso, we design, develop, and market exoskeleton and complementary products that augment human strength, endurance, and mobility (the "Legacy Ekso Business").

What impact has the Holding Company Transaction had on the structure of the Company?

On July 1, 2026, ChronoScale Corporation completed a holding company formation transaction (the "Holding Company Transaction") pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement") dated as of July 1, 2026, by and among ChronoScale Corporation, ChronoScale Holdings Corporation ("ChronoScale Holdings"), and CHRN Merger Sub Inc. ("Merger Sub").The Holding Company Transaction was effected as a corporate restructuring under Section 92A.134 of the Nevada Revised Statutes, which did not require stockholder approval. As part of the Holding Company Transaction, ChronoScale Corporation contributed all of the outstanding equity interests of its wholly-owned subsidiary, Cloud, to ChronoScale Holdings pursuant to a contribution agreement, resulting in Cloud becoming a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of ChronoScale Holdings. Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub merged with and into ChronoScale Corporation, with ChronoScale Corporation continuing as the surviving corporation and a wholly-owned direct subsidiary of ChronoScale Holdings. As a result of the Holding Company Transaction, ChronoScale Holdings became the public company parent of, and the successor issuer to, ChronoScale Corporation, and ChronoScale Corporation subsequently converted from a Nevada corporation to a Nevada limited liability company and changed its name to "ChronoScale Intermediate LLC." The holding company structure better reflects our individual operating businesses, allows for and can accommodate future growth from internal operations and generally provides for greater administrative and operational flexibility. Each stockholder of ChronoScale immediately prior to the effective time of the Holding Company Transaction owned, immediately after the effective time, shares of ChronoScale Holdings common stock and/or shares of ChronoScale Holdings preferred stock, as applicable, in the same amounts and percentages as such stockholder owned in ChronoScale immediately prior to the effective time and each such share of ChronoScale Holdings common stock and/or shares of ChronoScale Holdings preferred stock, as applicable, has the exact same designations, rights, powers and preferences, and the same qualifications, limitations and restrictions as such stockholder owned in ChronoScale immediately prior to the effective time.

Following the Holding Company Transaction, Applied Digital Cloud Corporation changed its name to ChronoScale Corporation. All references to "Cloud" prior to the Holding Company Transaction are to Applied Digital Cloud Corporation and after the Holding Company Transaction, to ChronoScale Corporation. As such, we continue to operate our business through two distinct business segments - the Cloud Business, which we now operate through ChronoScale Corporation, and the Legacy Ekso Business, which we continue to operate through Legacy Ekso, each of which is a direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of ChronoScale Holdings.

What is our Cloud Business?

Through Cloud (n/k/a ChronoScale Corporation), we have been providing and continue to provide cloud services to customers at third-party colocation centers located in Colorado, Minnesota and Utah, such as artificial intelligence and machine learning developers, seeking to develop their advanced products. Customers pay a fixed rate in exchange for an energized space supported by Company-provided equipment. For more details on our Cloud Business, please refer to the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on August 19, 2026 (the "Annual Report").

What is our Legacy Ekso Business?

Through Legacy Ekso, we design, develop, and market exoskeleton and complementary products that augment human strength, endurance, and mobility. On May 29, 2026, our Board of Directors (the "Board") committed to a plan to divest the Legacy Ekso Business and focus our future operations solely on our Cloud Business, which plan was publicly announced on June 4, 2026. We expect to complete the divestiture of Legacy Ekso during fiscal year 2027. As such, our Legacy Ekso Business has been designated as "held for sale" and "discontinued operations" in our consolidated audited financial statements included in the Annual Report.

Unless the context otherwise requires, references to "we," "us," "our," and the "Company" refer to Ekso Bionics Holdings, Inc. prior to the Business Combination, ChronoScale Corporation following the Business Combination and ChronoScale Holdings following the Holding Company Transaction.

About the Annual Meeting

We are calling the Annual Meeting to seek the approval of our stockholders:

	●	To elect eight director nominees to serve as directors until the next annual meeting of stockholders ("Proposal 1");
	●	To ratify the appointment of CBIZ CPAs P.C. as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending May 31, 2027 ("Proposal 2");
	●	To approve, in an advisory (non-binding) vote, the compensation of our named executive officers as disclosed in the Proxy Statement ("Proposal 3");
	●	To ratify certain Restricted Stock Awards granted to our non-employee directors under the 2026 Plan (as defined in this Proxy Statement) ("Proposal 4");
	●	To approve the adjournment of the Annual Meeting to a later date or dates, if necessary or appropriate, to permit further solicitation and vote of proxies in the event that there are insufficient votes for, or otherwise in connection with, the approval of any one or more of the foregoing proposals ("Proposal 5"); and
	●	To consider any other matters that may properly come before the Annual Meeting, including any adjournment or postponement thereof.

What are the Board's recommendations?

Our Board believes that the (i) election of the director nominees identified herein, (ii) ratification of the appointment of CBIZ as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending May 31, 2027, (iii) compensation of our named executive officers as described in this Proxy Statement, (iv) ratification of certain Restricted Stock Awards granted to our non-employee directors under the 2026 Plan, and (v) approval to adjourn the Annual Meeting to a later date or dates, in the event that there are insufficient votes for, or otherwise in connection with, the approval of any one or more of the foregoing proposals, are each advisable and in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders and recommends that you vote FOR each of the director nominees and FOR each of the foregoing proposals. If you are a stockholder of record as of September 10, 2026 (the "Record Date") and you return a properly executed proxy card or vote by proxy over the Internet but do not mark the boxes showing how you wish to vote, your shares will be voted in accordance with the recommendations of the Board, as set forth above. With respect to any other matter that properly comes before our Annual Meeting, the proxy holders will vote as recommended by the Board or, if no recommendation is given, at their own discretion.

Who is entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting?

Only stockholders of record at the close of business on the Record Date are entitled to receive notice of the Annual Meeting and to vote the shares of our common stock that they held on that date at the Annual Meeting, or any postponement or adjournment of the Annual Meeting. Each share of common stock is entitled to one vote on each proposal. As of the Record Date, we had 145,637,452 shares of common stock outstanding.

Who can attend the meeting?

All stockholders of record at the close of business on the Record Date, or their duly appointed proxies, may attend the Annual Meeting.

Attendance at the Annual Meeting shall be solely via the Internet at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/CHRN2026 using the 16-digit control number on the proxy card or voting instruction form that accompanied the proxy materials. Stockholders will not be able to attend the Annual Meeting at a physical location.

The live webcast of the Annual Meeting will begin promptly at 12:00 p.m., Eastern Time on November 6, 2026. Online access to the webcast will open approximately 15 minutes prior to the start of the Annual Meeting to allow time for our stockholders to log in and test their devices' audio system. We encourage our stockholders to access the Annual Meeting in advance of the designated start time.

An online portal will be available to our stockholders at www.proxyvote.com commencing approximately on or about September 23, 2026. By accessing this portal, stockholders will be able to vote in advance of the Annual Meeting. Stockholders may also vote, and submit questions, during the Annual Meeting at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/CHRN2026. To demonstrate proof of stock ownership, you will need to enter the 16-digit control number received with your proxy card or voting instruction form to submit questions and vote at our Annual Meeting. If you hold your shares in "street name" (that is, through a broker or other nominee), you will need authorization from your broker or nominee in order to vote. We intend to answer questions submitted during the Annual Meeting that are pertinent to the Company and the items being brought for stockholder vote at the Annual Meeting, as time permits, and in accordance with the Rules of Conduct for the Annual Meeting. To promote fairness, efficiently use the Company's resources, and ensure all stockholder questions are able to be addressed, we will respond to no more than three questions from a single stockholder. We have retained Broadridge Financial Solutions to host our virtual Annual Meeting and to distribute proxies and receive, count and tabulate votes.

What constitutes a quorum?

The presence at the meeting, in person or by proxy, of at least two thirds (66 2/3%) in voting power of the then outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting will constitute a quorum for the Annual Meeting.

Abstentions will be counted for the purpose of determining whether a quorum is present. If brokers have, and exercise, discretionary authority on at least one item on the agenda for the Annual Meeting, uninstructed shares for which broker non-votes occur will constitute voting power present for the discretionary matter and will therefore count towards the quorum.

How do I vote?

You may vote on the Internet, by telephone, by mail or by attending the Annual Meeting and voting electronically, all as described below. The Internet and telephone voting procedures are designed to authenticate stockholders by use of a control number and to allow you to confirm that your instructions have been properly recorded. If you vote by telephone or on the Internet, you do not need to return your proxy card or voting instruction card.

If your shares are held in a stock brokerage account or by a bank or other nominee, you are the beneficial owner of shares held in "street name," and these proxy materials are being forwarded to you by your broker or other nominee, considered to be the stockholder of record. As the beneficial owner, you have the right to tell your nominee how to vote. Your nominee has sent you instructions on how to direct the nominee's vote. You may submit a proxy to vote by following those instructions.

Vote on the Internet

If you are a stockholder of record, you may submit your vote via the internet by following the instructions provided in your Notice. Have your proxy card or voting instruction card in hand when you access the voting website. On the Internet voting site, you can confirm that your instructions have been properly recorded. Internet voting facilities will be available on or about September 23, 2026 and will be available 24 hours a day until 11:59 p.m., Eastern Time, on November 5, 2026.

Vote by Telephone

If you are a stockholder of record, you can also vote by telephone by dialing the telephone number shown on your Notice. Have your proxy card or voting instruction card in hand when you call. Telephone voting facilities will be available on or about September 23, 2026 and will be available 24 hours a day until 11:59 p.m., Eastern Time, on November 5, 2026.

Vote by Mail

You may choose to vote by mail, by marking your proxy card or voting instruction card, dating and signing it, and returning it in the postage-paid envelope provided. If the envelope is missing and you are a stockholder of record, please mail your completed proxy card to Vote Processing, c/o Broadridge, 51 Mercedes Way, Edgewood, NY 11717. If the envelope is missing and your shares are held with a broker, please mail your completed voting instruction card to the address specified therein. Please allow sufficient time for mailing if you decide to vote by mail as it must be received by 11:59 p.m., Eastern Time, on November 5, 2026.

Voting at the Annual Meeting

You will have the right to vote on the day of, or during, the Annual Meeting on www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/CHRN2026. To demonstrate proof of stock ownership, you will need to enter the 16-digit control number received with your proxy card or voting instruction form to vote at our Annual Meeting.

Even if you plan to attend our Annual Meeting, we recommend that you also submit your proxy as described above so that your vote will be counted if you later decide not to attend our Annual Meeting.

The shares voted electronically, telephonically or represented by the proxy cards received, properly marked, dated, signed and not revoked, will be voted at the Annual Meeting.

What if I vote and then change my mind?

You may revoke your proxy at any time before it is exercised by:

	●	filing with the Secretary of the Company a notice of revocation;
	●	submitting a later-dated vote by telephone or on the Internet;
	●	sending in another duly executed proxy bearing a later date; or
	●	attending the Annual Meeting remotely and casting your vote in the manner set forth above.

Your latest vote will be the vote that is counted.

What is the difference between holding shares as a stockholder of record and as a beneficial owner?

Many of our stockholders hold their shares through a stockbroker, bank or other nominee rather than directly in their own name. As summarized below, there are some distinctions between shares held of record and those owned beneficially.

Stockholder of Record

If your shares are registered directly in your name with our transfer agent, Computershare Trust Company, N.A., you are considered, with respect to those shares, the stockholder of record. As the stockholder of record, you have the right to directly grant your voting proxy or to vote at the Annual Meeting.

Beneficial Owner

If your shares are held in a stock brokerage account or by a bank or other nominee, you are considered the beneficial owner of shares held in street name, and these proxy materials are being forwarded to you by your broker, bank or nominee which is considered, with respect to those shares, the stockholder of record. As the beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your broker as to how to vote and are also invited to attend the Annual Meeting. However, because you are not the stockholder of record, you may not vote these shares unless you obtain a signed proxy from the record holder giving you the right to vote the shares. If you do not provide the stockholder of record with voting instructions or otherwise obtain a signed proxy from the record holder giving you the right to vote the shares, broker non-votes may occur for the shares that you beneficially own. The effect of broker non-votes is more specifically described in "What vote is required to approve each proposal?" below.

What vote is required to approve each proposal?

Assuming that a quorum is present, the following votes will be required:

	●	With respect to Proposal 1, directors are elected by a majority of the votes cast. As a result, withhold votes, if any, and broker non-votes (see below), if any, will not affect the outcome of this proposal.
	●	With respect to Proposal 2, the ratification of the independent registered public accounting firm, a majority of the total votes cast at the Annual Meeting, whether in person or represented by proxy, is required to approve Proposal 2. As a result, abstentions, if any, will not affect the outcome of the vote on this proposal. If this proposal is deemed to be "routine" as described below, no broker non-votes will occur on this proposal.
	●	With respect to Proposal 3, the approval, on an advisory basis, of the executive compensation of the Company's named executive officers as described in this Proxy Statement, a majority of the votes cast at the Annual Meeting, whether in person or represented by proxy, is required to approve Proposal 3. As a result, abstentions and broker non-votes (see below), if any, will not affect the outcome of the vote on this proposal. If this proposal is deemed to be "routine" as described below, no broker non-votes will occur on this proposal.
	●	With respect to Proposal 4, ratification of certain Restricted Stock Awards granted to our non-employee directors under the 2026 Plan, a majority of the votes cast at the Annual Meeting, whether in person or represented by proxy, is required to approve Proposal 4. As a result, abstentions and broker non-votes (see below), if any, will not affect the outcome of the vote on this proposal. If this proposal is deemed to be "routine" as described below, no broker non-votes will occur on this proposal.
	●	With respect to Proposal 5, the approval of the adjournment of the Annual Meeting in the event that there are insufficient votes for, or otherwise in connection with, the approval of any one or more of the foregoing proposals, a majority of the votes cast at the Annual Meeting, whether in person or represented by proxy, is required to approve Proposal 5. As a result, abstentions and broker non-votes, if any, will not affect the outcome of this proposal. If this proposal is deemed to be "routine" as described below, no broker non-votes will occur on this proposal.
	●	With respect to any other matter that may properly come before the Annual Meeting, a majority of the votes cast by holders of our common stock, whether in person or represented by proxy, is required to approve such proposals, except as required by law. As a result, abstentions, if any, will not affect the outcome of the vote on these proposals. No broker non-votes will occur on any "routine" proposals, and broker non-votes will not affect the outcome of any "non-routine" proposals.

As used in this Proxy Statement and as defined in our Amended and Restated Bylaws, the term "majority of votes cast" means that the number of votes cast "for" a nominee or proposal exceeds the number of votes cast "against" such nominee or proposal.

You will not have any dissenters' rights of appraisal in connection with any of the matters to be voted on at the Annual Meeting.

What are "broker non-votes"?

Banks and brokers acting as nominees are permitted to use discretionary voting authority to vote proxies for proposals that are deemed "routine" under Rule 452 of the New York Stock Exchange, which governs all brokers (including those holding Nasdaq-listed securities), which means that they can submit a proxy or cast a ballot on behalf of stockholders who do not provide a specific voting instruction. Brokers and banks are not permitted to use discretionary voting authority to vote proxies for proposals that are deemed "non-routine." The determination of which proposals are deemed "routine" versus "non-routine" may not be made until after the date on which this Proxy Statement has been mailed to you. As such, it is important that you provide voting instructions to your bank, broker or other nominee, if you wish to ensure that your shares are present and voted at the Annual Meeting on all matters and if you wish to direct the voting of your shares on "routine" matters.

When there is at least one "routine" matter to be considered at a meeting, a "broker non-vote" occurs when a proposal is deemed "non-routine" and a nominee holding shares for a beneficial owner does not have discretionary voting authority with respect to the "non-routine" matter being considered and has not received voting instructions with respect to such matter from the beneficial owner.

Proposal 1, the election of directors, Proposal 3, the advisory vote on executive compensation, Proposal 4, ratification of certain Restricted Stock Awards granted to our non-employee directors under the 2026 Plan, are generally not or may not be considered to be "routine" matters by the New York Stock Exchange and banks or brokers are not or may not be permitted to vote on these matters if the bank or broker has not received instructions from the beneficial owner. Accordingly, it is particularly important that beneficial owners instruct their brokers how they wish to vote their shares for Proposals 1, 3, and 4. Under the applicable rules governing such brokers, we believe Proposal 2, to ratify the appointment of CBIZ as our independent registered public accounting firm, and Proposal 5, to approve the adjournment of the Annual Meeting to the extent there are insufficient proxies at the Annual Meeting to approve any of the foregoing proposals, are likely to be considered "routine" items. Therefore, a bank or broker may be able to vote on Proposals 2 and 5 even if it does not receive instructions from you, so long as it holds your shares in its name.

How are we soliciting this proxy?

We are soliciting this proxy on behalf of our Board and will pay all expenses associated therewith. Some of our officers, directors and other employees also may, but without compensation other than their regular compensation, solicit proxies by further mailing or personal conversations, or by telephone, facsimile or other electronic means.

We will also, upon request, reimburse brokers and other persons holding stock in their names, or in the names of nominees, for their reasonable out-of-pocket expenses for forwarding proxy materials to the beneficial owners of the capital stock and to obtain proxies.

Do we provide for Electronic Delivery of Proxy Materials?

Pursuant to rules adopted by the SEC, we provide access to the proxy materials over the Internet. Accordingly, we are sending a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials ("Notice") to our stockholders owning shares of our common stock as of the Record Date on or about September 23, 2026. All stockholders will have the ability to access the proxy materials on the website referred to in the Notice or request to receive a printed set of the proxy materials. Instructions on how to access the proxy materials over the Internet or to request a printed copy may be found in the Notice. The Notice also contains instructions on how to request a paper copy of our proxy materials, including this Proxy Statement, our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2026, and a form of proxy card or voting instruction card. In addition, the Notice will provide stockholders with instructions on how to request to receive proxy materials in printed form by mail or by e-mail on an ongoing basis. We encourage stockholders to take advantage of the availability of the proxy materials on the Internet to help reduce the costs of printing and distributing our proxy materials. If you choose to receive future proxy materials by e-mail, you will receive an e-mail message each successive year with instructions containing a link to those materials and a link to the proxy voting website.

Our proxy materials are also available free of charge on our website at www.chronoscale.com, at www.proxyvote.com, and at the SEC's website at www.sec.gov.

How can I find the result of the voting at the Annual Meeting?

Preliminary voting results will be announced at the Annual Meeting. Final voting results will be published in a current report on Form 8-K within 4 business days of the Annual Meeting, which will be posted on our website at www.chronoscale.com, under "Investors" and at the SEC's website at www.sec.gov.

PROPOSAL 1

ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

In connection with the Closing, immediately prior to the Closing and effective as of the Closing Date, the following directors tendered their resignations from the Board and each committee of the Board on which each such director respectively served: Mary Ann Cloyd, Corinna Lathan, Ph.D., Charles Li, Ph.D., and Deborah Lafer Scher, which resignations were not the result of any disagreements with the Company or its management relating to the Company's operations, policies or practices.

Effective upon the Closing, on May 5, 2026, the size of the Board was increased to seven members and the Board was reconstituted as follows: Wes Cummins (Chairman), Ella Benson, Ying Cenly Chen (our Chief Executive Officer), William M. Clancy, Scott G. Davis, Douglas Miller and Richard Nottenburg. In addition, on June 29, 2026, the Board increased the size of the Board from seven to eight members and appointed Andrew Schaap to serve as a member of the Board to fill the resulting vacancy, effective as of June 29, 2026.

Our Board, upon recommendation of our Nominating and Governance Committee, has nominated Wes Cummins, Ying Cenly Chen, Richard Nottenburg, Ella Benson, Douglas Miller, William M. Clancy, Scott G. Davis, and Andrew Schaap for election as directors of the Board.

Our Amended and Restated Bylaws ("Bylaws") permit the Board to set the size of the Board, having at least one or more members. Our Board currently consists of eight directors, each of whom is being nominated for reelection at the Annual Meeting.

Each of our current directors serves until the next annual meeting of our stockholders or the earlier death, resignation or removal of such director. Despite the expiration of a director's term, however, the director shall continue to serve until such director's successor is elected and qualified or until there is a decrease in the number of directors.

Our Bylaws provide that directors will be elected by a majority of the votes cast, provided, however, if it is a contested election, the directors will be elected by a plurality of the votes cast.

As discussed below, we believe that each of our director nominees possesses the experience, skills and qualities to fully perform his or her duties as a director and contribute to our success. Our director nominees were nominated because each is of high ethical character, is highly accomplished in his or her field with superior credentials and recognition, has a reputation, both personal and professional, that is consistent with our image and reputation, has the ability to exercise sound business judgment, and is able to dedicate sufficient time to fulfilling his or her obligations as a director. Each director nominee's principal occupation and other pertinent information about such director's particular experience, qualifications, attributes and skills that led the Board to conclude that such person should serve as a director, appears on the following pages. There are no family relationships between any of our directors or executive officers.

Nominees for Election Until the Next Annual Meeting

The following table sets forth the name, age, position and tenure of each of the nominees at the Annual Meeting:

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

Corporate Governance Guidelines

Our Board adopted Corporate Governance Guidelines on June 29, 2026, which pertain to our Board's role within the Company and its composition, Board meetings, Board committees, performance evaluation of directors and officers, and Company-wide communication.

	●	Stockholders shall have reasonable access to directors at annual meetings of stockholders and an opportunity to communicate directly with directors on appropriate matters.

Certain of these guidelines are discussed in greater detail below.

Board Leadership Structure

Our Board does not currently have a policy as to whether the role of Chairman of the Board and the Chief Executive Officer should be separate. Our Board believes that the Company and its stockholders are best served by maintaining the flexibility to determine whether the Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer positions should be separated or combined at a given point in time in order to provide appropriate leadership for us at that time. Currently, Ying Cenly Chen is our Chief Executive Officer and Wes Cummins is the Chairman of the Board.

Board of Directors Composition

Each year, our Nominating and Governance Committee reviews, with the Board, the appropriate characteristics, skills, and experience required for the Board as a whole and its individual members. In evaluating the suitability of individual candidates, our Nominating and Governance Committee considers factors including, without limitation, an individual's character, integrity, judgment, potential conflicts of interest, other commitments, and diversity. While we have no formal policy regarding board diversity for our Board as a whole nor for each individual member, the Nominating and Governance Committee does consider such factors as gender, race, ethnicity, experience, and area of expertise, as well as other individual attributes that contribute to the total diversity of viewpoints and experience represented on the Board.

Board of Directors Meetings

Our Board met twelve (12) times during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 and met four (4) times during the Transition Period (as defined below). Each director attended at least 75% of the aggregate of (i) the total number of meetings of our Board (held during the period for which such director served on the Board) and (ii) the total number of meetings of all committees of our Board on which such director served (during the periods for which the director served on the Board and such committee or committees). We do not have a formal policy requiring members of the Board to attend our annual meetings. All directors serving on the Board at the time of the 2025 Annual Meeting attended the meeting.

Director Independence

As of the Closing, the Company qualified as a "controlled company" under the Nasdaq Listing Rules because following the Business Combination more than 50% of the voting power of its common stock is owned by Contributor, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Applied Parent. As a "controlled company," the Company is entitled to rely on certain exemptions from the corporate governance requirements of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (the "Nasdaq Stock Market"), including:

	●	the requirement that a majority of the Board consists of independent directors;
	●	the requirement that its director nominees be selected or recommended for the Board's selection by a majority of the Board's independent directors in a vote in which only independent directors participate or by a nominating committee comprised solely of independent directors, in either case, with board resolutions or a written charter, as applicable, addressing the nominations process and related matters as required under the federal securities laws; and
	●	the requirement that its compensation committee be composed entirely of independent directors with a written charter addressing the compensation committee's purpose and responsibilities.

Although as a controlled company, as described above, we are not required to comply with the Nasdaq Listing Rules for the majority of members of the Board to be independent, we have elected not to rely upon this exemption. Under the Nasdaq Listing Rules, a majority of the members of the board of directors must qualify as "independent," as affirmatively determined by the board of directors and a director will only qualify as an "independent director" if, in the opinion of that company's board of directors, that person does not have a relationship that would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director. The Board has determined that each of Ms. Benson, Mr. Clancy, Mr. Miller, Dr. Nottenburg, and Mr. Schaap qualify as "independent directors" as defined by the Nasdaq Listing Rules and therefore, the Board is comprised of a majority of independent directors.

In addition, the Nasdaq Listing Rules require that all the members of the Audit Committee and Compensation Committee be independent. Audit committee members must also satisfy the independence criteria set forth in Rule 10A-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). Compensation committee members must also satisfy the independence criteria established by the Nasdaq Listing Rules in accordance with Rule 10C-1 under the Exchange Act. Under the Nasdaq Listing Rules, a director will only qualify as an "independent director" if, among other qualifications, in the opinion of that company's board of directors, that person does not have a relationship that would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director.

Our Board has reviewed its composition, the composition of its committees and the independence of each director. Based upon information requested from and provided by each director concerning his or her background, employment and affiliations, including family relationships, our Board has determined that each of Ms. Benson, Mr. Clancy, Mr. Miller, Dr. Nottenburg, and Mr. Schaap does not have a relationship that would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director and that each of these directors is "independent" as that term is defined under the Nasdaq Listing Rules and the SEC.

Board Committees

Our Board has established an Audit Committee, a Compensation Committee, a Nominating and Governance Committee, and a Related Party Transaction Committee, each of which has the composition and responsibilities described below. Members serve on these committees until their resignation or until otherwise determined by our Board. Each committee operates under a written charter approved by our Board that satisfies the applicable rules of the SEC and Nasdaq Listing Rules. A copy of each committee's charter is posted in the Investors section of our website. Membership of each committee is shown in the following table.

	●	exercise such other powers and authority as shall from time to time be assigned thereto by resolution of the Board.

Our Related Party Transaction Committee did not meet during the Transition Period.

Board and Committee Self-Evaluation and Refreshment

Our Board conducts annual self-evaluations to assess the effectiveness of the Board and its Committees. These annual self-evaluations are overseen by the Nominating and Governance Committee and are designed to enhance the overall effectiveness of the Board and each Committee and identify areas of potential improvement. They include written questionnaires that solicit feedback from the Board and Committee members on a range of topics, including the Committees' roles, structure and composition; the extent to which the mix of skills, experience and other attributes of the individual directors is appropriate for the Board and each Committee; the scope of duties delegated to the Committees, including the allocation of risk assessment between the Board and its Committees; interaction with management; information and resources; the adequacy of open lines of communication between directors and members of management; the Board and Committee meeting process and dynamics; and follow-through on recommendations developed during the evaluation process.

Following the annual self-assessments, the Nominating and Governance Committee discusses areas for potential improvement with the Board and/or relevant Committees and, if necessary, identifies steps required to implement these improvements. Director suggestions for improvements to the evaluation questionnaires and process are considered for incorporation for the following year. As part of the Nominating and Governance Committee's discussion and evaluation of areas for improvement, board refreshment, including the commitment to have a balanced Board with diversity of skills and experience, is a topic that is considered.

The Nominating and Governance Committee and the Board regularly review Board composition to consider succession related factors, skill sets, diversity and balance. The Company is committed to seeking diversity and balance on our Board with directors of race, gender, geography, thoughts, viewpoints, backgrounds, skills, experience and expertise. In conducting each of these director searches, our Nominating and Governance Committee considered the leadership, technical skills and operational experience that we believed would address the Board's then current needs.

Stockholder Nominations for Directorships

All stockholder recommendations for director candidates must be received by the Company in the timeframe(s) set forth under the heading "Stockholder Proposals" below. Such submissions must state the nominee's name, together with appropriate biographical information and background materials, and information with respect to the stockholder or group of stockholders making the recommendation, including the number of shares of common stock owned by such stockholder or group of stockholders, as well as other information required by our Bylaws.

Board Leadership Structure and Role in Risk Oversight

Our Board is primarily responsible for overseeing our risk management processes. Our Board, as a whole, determines our appropriate level of risk, assesses the specific risks that we face, and reviews management's strategies for adequately mitigating and managing the identified risks. Although our Board administers this risk management oversight function, the committees of our Board support our Board in discharging its oversight duties and address risks inherent in their respective areas. The Audit Committee reviews our major financial risk exposures and the steps management has taken to monitor and control such exposures, including our procedures and related policies with respect to risk assessment and risk management. Our Audit Committee also reviews matters relating to compliance, cybersecurity, export controls, and security and reports to our Board regarding such matters. The Compensation Committee reviews risks and exposures associated with compensation plans and programs. We believe this division of responsibilities is an effective approach for addressing the risks we face and that our Board leadership structure supports this approach.

The Board oversees the Company's risk management framework, including cybersecurity risks. The Company's cybersecurity governance program is designed to address both (i) the physical security, availability, operational integrity, and resilience of its hosted infrastructure environment and (ii) cybersecurity risks affecting the Company's corporate information technology, business systems, data, and administrative operations. The Board receives periodic updates regarding the Company's cybersecurity program, significant cybersecurity risks, emerging threat trends, material incidents, and management's efforts to assess and mitigate cybersecurity risks.

The Audit Committee assists the Board in its oversight of cybersecurity and technology-related risks and receives regular reports regarding the effectiveness of the Company's cybersecurity risk management activities, cybersecurity risk exposure, incident preparedness, control enhancements, and significant cybersecurity matters.

Management is responsible for implementing and maintaining our cybersecurity risk management program. Cybersecurity oversight is led by the Company's Head of Security, together with members of senior management responsible for technology operations, risk management, legal, and compliance functions. These individuals possess experience in cybersecurity, technology operations, risk management, incident response, and regulatory compliance and are responsible for assessing cybersecurity risks, implementing security controls, coordinating incident response activities, and overseeing cybersecurity risk mitigation efforts across the organization.

Our security lead reports to the Chief Technology Officer ("CTO") and has direct reporting and escalation responsibilities to the Audit Committee and the full Board with respect to significant cybersecurity matters. The CTO provides regular updates concerning the Company's cybersecurity posture, key risks, control enhancements, incident response readiness, threat landscape developments, and material cybersecurity incidents or vulnerabilities.

Management regularly reviews cybersecurity risks, security metrics, ongoing risk mitigation activities, and incident response preparedness. Significant cybersecurity matters are escalated to executive leadership, the Audit Committee, and the Board, as appropriate, based on the nature and significance of the risk or incident.

Stockholder Communications

Stockholders may communicate with the Board by directing their communications in a hard copy (i.e., non-electronic) written form to the attention of one or more members of the Board, or to the Board collectively, at our corporate office located at 2440 Sand Hill Road, Suite 400, Menlo Park, CA 94025. A stockholder communication must include a statement that the author of such communication is a beneficial or record owner of our common stock. Our Corporate Secretary will review all communications meeting the requirements discussed above and will remove any communications relating to (1) the purchase or sale of products or services, (2) communications from opposing parties relating to pending or threatened legal or administrative proceedings regarding matters not related to securities law matters or fiduciary duty matters, and (3) any other communications that the Corporate Secretary deems, in his or her reasonable discretion, unrelated to our business.

Code of Business Conduct and Ethics

We have adopted a code of business conduct and ethics that applies to all of our employees, officers, and directors. The full text of our code of business conduct and ethics is posted on the Investors section of our website: www.chronoscale.com. We intend to disclose future amendments to certain provisions of our code of business conduct and ethics, or waivers of these provisions, on our website or in public filings.

Insider Trading Policy

We have an insider trading policy governing the purchase, sale and other dispositions of the Company's securities that applies to all Company personnel, including directors, officers, and employees, as well as their family members and controlled entities. We believe that our insider trading policy is reasonably designed to promote compliance with insider trading laws, rules and regulations, and listing standards applicable to the Company. A copy of our insider trading policy is filed as Exhibit 19.1 to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2026, filed with the SEC on August 19, 2026.

Anti-Hedging Policy

Under the terms of our insider trading policy, we prohibit each officer, director and employee, and each of their family members and controlled entities, from engaging in certain forms of hedging or monetization transactions. Such transactions include those, such as zero-cost collars and forward sale contracts, that would allow them to lock in much of the value of their stock holdings, often in exchange for all or part of the potential for upside appreciation in the stock, and to continue to own the covered securities but without the full risks and rewards of ownership.

Delinquent Section 16(a) Reports

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires the Company's directors, executive officers and persons who beneficially own more than 10% of its common stock to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the Commission and to furnish the Company with copies of all such reports they file.

Based on the Company's review of the copies of such forms received by it, or written representations from certain reporting persons, the Company believes that none of its directors, executive officers or persons who beneficially own more than 10% of the common stock failed to comply with Section 16(a) reporting requirements during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 and the Transition Period, except as follows: (i) Daniel Asher, the beneficial owner of our shares held by DBA Trading, LLC, a former 10% holder of our common stock, filed late a Form 4 reporting multiple transactions occurring from February 6, 2026 to February 12, 2026; and (ii) each of Mr. Jones and Mr. Wong filed late a Form 4 reporting transactions that occurred on March 16, 2026.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

Overview

Pursuant to Rule 12b-2, we are providing disclosure regarding our executive compensation arrangements pursuant to the scaled disclosure requirements applicable to smaller reporting companies, which means that we are not required to provide a compensation discussion and analysis and certain tabular and other disclosures regarding our executive compensation. The following discussion relates to the compensation of:

	●	all individuals who served as the Company's Chief Executive Officer during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 and the period beginning January 1, 2026 and ending May 31, 2026 (the "Transition Period" or "2026 TP");
	●	our two other most highly compensated individuals who were serving as executive officers at the end of the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 and the Transition Period; and
	●	each individual who would be a NEO but for the fact that the individual was not an executive officer of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, and was not acting in a similar capacity, at the end of the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 or the Transition Period.

This discussion pertains to the compensation of these individuals for services rendered in all capacities during the fiscal year, consisting of Ying Cenly Chen, our current Chief Executive Officer and member of the Board, Scott G. Davis, our former Chief Executive Officer until the Closing and current Chief Executive Officer of Legacy Ekso, Jerome Wong, our current Chief Financial Officer, and Jason Jones, our former Chief Operating Officer until the Closing and the current Chief Operating Officer of Legacy Ekso) (each, a Named Executive Officer and collectively, the "Named Executive Officers").

Our executive compensation programs are designed to:

	●	Attract, motivate, incentivize, and retain employees at the executive level who are critical to our long-term success;
	●	Provide compensation packages to our executives that are competitive, reward the achievement of our business objectives and effectively align their interests with those of our stockholders; and
	●	Focus on long-term equity incentives that correlate with the growth of sustainable long-term value for our stockholders.

Our Compensation Committee is responsible for the executive compensation programs for our Named Executive Officers and reports to our Board on its discussions, decisions, and other actions. Our Chief Executive Officer makes recommendations for the respective executive officers that report to her to our Compensation Committee and typically attends Compensation Committee meetings. Our Chief Executive Officer makes such recommendations (other than with respect to her own compensation) regarding base salary, and short-term and long-term compensation, including equity incentives, for our executive officers based on our Company's financial results, an executive officer's individual contribution toward these results, the executive officer's role and performance of his or her duties, and his or her achievement of preset individual goals. Our Compensation Committee then reviews the recommendations and other data, including, where necessary, an analysis of competitive market data prepared by an independent compensation consultant using information drawn from publicly available data of our peers and various compensation surveys, and makes decisions as to the target total direct compensation for each executive officer, including our Chief Executive Officer, as well as each individual compensation element. While our Chief Executive Officer may attend meetings of the Compensation Committee, the Compensation Committee meets outside the presence of our Chief Executive Officer when discussing her compensation and when discussing certain other matters, as well.

Our Compensation Committee is authorized to retain the services of one or more executive compensation advisors, as it sees fit, in connection with the establishment of our executive compensation programs and related policies.

Effective January 2, 2023, Mr. Jones was appointed Chief Operating Officer of the Company. Prior to that, Mr. Jones served as the Company's Senior Vice President of Product Development from October 2018 to January 2023. In connection with his promotion to Chief Operating Officer, on January 2, 2023, Mr. Jones entered into an offer letter with the Company (the "Jones Offer Letter"), which replaces and supersedes any prior agreements between Mr. Jones and the Company.

The Change in Control and Severance Agreement also provides that he is eligible for a continued payment of his base salary over a period of 6 months if Mr. Jones is terminated without cause other than within the twelve-month period following a Change in Control.

Potential Payments upon Termination or Change in Control

In addition to any payments provided by the Named Executive Officers' offer letters, as described above, the following termination and/or change in control protection is provided in Change in Control and Severance Agreements with each Named Executive Officer as follows:

Severance Agreements

On or about November 5, 2025, the Company entered into Change in Control and Severance Agreements (each, a "Severance Agreement") with each of Scott G. Davis, Jerome Wong and Jason C. Jones. Each Severance Agreement superseded all prior understandings with respect to severance benefits entered into between the Company and the applicable Named Executive Officer. The Severance Agreements with Mr. Davis and Mr. Jones are still in effect, but Mr. Wong's severance terms are now governed by the Wong Offer Letter, which supersedes the Wong Severance Agreement. The operative terms applicable to Mr. Wong are described above under "Jerome Wong, our Chief Financial Officer and Corporate Secretary."

Under the Severance Agreements for Mr. Davis and Mr. Jones, in the event of a termination of employment either (A) by a member of Cloud or its subsidiaries without Cause (as defined in the applicable Severance Agreement), but excluding a termination by reason of death or disability, or (B) by Mr. Davis or Mr. Jones for Good Reason (as defined in the applicable Severance Agreement) in either case on or within the twelve months following consummation of a Change in Control (as defined in the 2014 Plan), in addition to Mr. Davis's and Mr. Jones's then-accrued compensation, the Severance Agreements provide for the following severance payments or benefits: (i) a single lump sum payment equal to 9 months' base salary with respect to Mr. Jones and 18 months' base salary with respect to Mr. Davis; (ii) payment or reimbursement of the cost of premiums for continued medical coverage under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended ("COBRA"), for Mr. Jones and Mr. Davis, as applicable, and his eligible dependents for a period of up to 9 months with respect to Mr. Jones and up to 18 months with respect to Mr. Davis; and (iii) full vesting acceleration and exercisability for all equity awards held by Mr. Davis and Mr. Jones, as applicable, that are subject to time-based vesting requirements.

In the event of a termination of employment by a member of Cloud or its subsidiaries without Cause, but excluding a termination by reason of death or disability, which occurs outside the period commencing on and ending twelve months following a Change in Control, in addition to Mr. Davis's and Mr. Jones's then-accrued compensation, the Severance Agreements provide for continuing payment of base salary over a period of 6 months with respect to Mr. Jones and 9 months with respect to Mr. Davis in accordance with the Company's normal payroll procedures.

Payment under the Severance Agreements to Mr. Davis and Mr. Jones is subject to the effectiveness and non-revocation of a release of claims by Mr. Davis or Mr. Jones, as applicable, in favor of the Company.

Short-Term Incentive Plan

We previously established a short-term incentive plan, which provides for short-term incentive awards to certain executive officers based on the achievement of goals related to corporate performance.

For 2025, Mr. Davis, Mr. Wong and Mr. Jones had a target bonus opportunity equal to 50% of their annual base salary. All incentive awards payable under our short-term incentive plan were payable in cash. Payment of such incentive awards were based upon achievement of corporate goals over two performance periods, consisting of the first half of calendar year 2025 and a performance period covering the full-year, payable to each participating executive officer. The first and second performance periods had weightings of 35% and 65%, respectively.

The applicable corporate goals in respect of 2025 related to revenue, cash spend, and other key milestones, including developing predictable revenue models for sales, improving brand awareness, streamlining reimbursement processes with third-party payers, new product developments and releases, obtaining regulatory certifications, improving operations and meeting strategic initiatives. In determining whether our revenue, cash spend, and milestone performance targets have been achieved, the Compensation Committee and our Board of Directors may consider any factors and achievements they deem appropriate, and has discretionary authority to make adjustments, including the ability to make additional awards based on company-wide or an individual executive officers' performance and to increase or decrease the level of awards that our executive officers receive in conjunction with their performance against the targets and also based upon our cash resources.

Based on its evaluation of company-wide performance for each of the two performance periods, the Board of Directors recommended that incentive awards be granted based on achievement of the revenue, cash spend and milestone performance goals at the following levels of achievement: 0% for the first half of 2025 and 30% for the full-year performance period.

As a result, for 2025, Mr. Davis received a bonus in the aggregate amount of $63,750, Mr. Wong received a bonus in the aggregate amount of $48,750, and Mr. Jones received a bonus in the aggregate amount of $48,750.

No such bonuses were issued during the Transition Period.

Rule 10b5-1 Sales Plans

None of our directors or executive officers have adopted written plans, known as Rule 10b5-1 plans, in which they would provide instructions to a broker to sell shares of our common stock upon grant of stock options to them or the vesting of RSUs previously granted to them in order to satisfy the withholding tax obligations arising from such event. Under such Rule 10b5-1 plans, a broker executes trades on a best execution basis, without further direction from such directors and executive officers. If adopted, the director or executive officer would be permitted to amend or terminate the 10b5-1 plan only under specified circumstances.

Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year End

The following table summarizes, for each of the Named Executive Officers, the number of shares of common stock underlying outstanding stock awards held as of May 31, 2026, the last day of the Transition Period.

On May 20, 2026, the Company entered into amendments to the PSU agreements with each of Mr. Davis, Mr. Wong, and Mr. Jones, pursuant to which Mr. Wong's and Mr. Jones's PSUs will settle entirely in shares of common stock, and Mr. Davis's PSUs will settle in a combination of 109,357 shares of common stock and a cash payment of $1,000,000 (representing the value of 75,643 PSUs).

Policies and Practices Related to the Grant of Certain Equity Awards Close in Time to the Release of Material Nonpublic Information

The Board and Compensation Committee grant awards without regard to the share price or the timing of the release of material nonpublic information and do not time grants for the purpose of affecting the value of executive compensation. Accordingly, it is our policy that our management team makes a good faith effort to advise the Board and Compensation Committee whenever it is aware that material nonpublic information is planned to be released to the public in close proximity to the grant of equity awards.

The pay versus performance data for the Transition Period represented in the charts below is significantly affected by two factors. Mr. Davis's compensation as PEO #1 includes a one-time cash payment of $1,000,000, reported under "All Other Compensation" in the Summary Compensation Table, received in partial settlement of his phantom performance RSUs following the consummation of the Business Combination on May 5, 2026, which constituted a change in control triggering vesting of the PSUs.

Additionally, Ms. Chen, who served as PEO #2, commenced employment as Chief Executive Officer on May 5, 2026, the date of the closing of the Business Combination, and accordingly served as PEO for only 26 days of the Transition Period. As such, her reported compensation reflects only a partial period of service and is not indicative of her annualized compensation. These factors should be considered when interpreting the pay versus performance relationships depicted in the charts below.

Non-Employee Director Compensation Policy

Prior to the Business Combination, Legacy Ekso maintained a non-employee director compensation policy that provided for annual cash retainer fees for service on the Board and its committees. In connection with the Business Combination, which closed on May 5, 2026, and the resulting reconstitution of the Board, the legacy director compensation policy was terminated. Currently, the Company's non-employee directors do not receive cash retainers or other cash fees for service on the Board or its committees. The Company believes that equity-based compensation appropriately aligns the interests of its directors with those of its stockholders and, accordingly, compensation for non-employee directors currently consists solely of restricted stock awards granted under the 2026 Plan.

For historical reference, under the prior Legacy Ekso non-employee director compensation policy, the Board had approved the following annual cash retainer schedule for members and chairs of the Board, Audit Committee, Compensation Committee and Nominating and Governance Committee, excluding employee directors. This cash retainer schedule was terminated in connection with the Business Combination and is presented below solely for historical context:

		Member ($)				Chair ($)
Board of Directors			35,000				70,000
Audit Committee			7,500				15,000
Compensation Committee			5,000				10,000
Nominating and Governance Committee			5,000				10,000

Directors who are employees of the Company do not receive any additional compensation for Board service.

EQUITY COMPENSATION PLAN INFORMATION

Equity Compensation Plan

In connection with the Business Combination, the Company approved the adoption of ChronoScale Corporation 2026 Equity Incentive Plan (as amended, and as amended and restated in connection with the Holding Company Transaction (the "2026 Plan")), to be effective immediately upon the consummation of the Business Combination. For the avoidance of doubt, after the Holding Company Transaction, all references to the "2026 Plan" refer to the ChronoScale Holdings Corporation 2026 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan, a copy of which was filed as Exhibit 10.15 with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2026, filed with the SEC on August 19, 2026.

The purpose of the 2026 Plan is to provide a means whereby eligible employees, officers, non-employee directors and other service providers develop a sense of proprietorship and personal involvement in the development and financial success of our Company and to encourage them to devote their best efforts to the business of the Company, thereby advancing our interests and those of our stockholders. The key provisions of the 2026 Plan are as follows:

	●	The 2026 Plan will continue until terminated by the Board, but no awards shall be granted on or after the 10th anniversary of the date of the 2026 Plan's initial adoption by the Board.
	●	The 2026 Plan provides for the grant of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance shares, and performance stock units, incentive bonus awards, other cash-based awards and other stock-based awards to eligible employees, non-employee directors and other service providers, to be granted from time to time as determined by the Board or its designees.
	●	An aggregate of 22,500,000 shares of common stock will be initially authorized for issuance pursuant to awards under the 2026 Plan.
	●	The 2026 Plan will be administered by the Board or, if designated by the Board, the committee of the Board delegated with the authority to administer the 2026 Plan.

Description of the 2026 Plan

The following description of the principal terms of the 2026 Plan is a summary and is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the 2026 Plan, which is filed as Exhibit 10.15 to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2026, filed with the SEC on August 19, 2026.

Administration. In general, the 2026 Plan will be administered by the Board or, if designated by the Board, the committee of the Board delegated with the authority to administer the 2026 Plan (the "Administrator"). The Administrator will determine the eligible employees, non-employee directors and other service providers to whom stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance shares, and performance stock units, incentive bonus awards, other cash-based awards and other stock-based awards (the "Awards") may be granted. The Administrator may prescribe, amend, and rescind rules and regulations relating to the 2026 Plan. No Awards may be made under the 2026 Plan on or after February 14, 2036, but the Awards granted prior to such date may extend beyond such date. Notwithstanding anything in the 2026 Plan or in any award agreement to the contrary, the Administrator shall retain the discretion to adjust, up or down, or add, remove or otherwise modify, waive or suspend, any performance goals, either based on a formula or on a discretionary basis or any combination thereof, with respect to an outstanding Award in any respect without a participant's consent. All determinations, interpretations, exercises of authority or other actions made by the Administrator or the Company under the 2026 Plan or any award agreement shall be taken or made by the Administrator or the Company, as applicable, in its sole and absolute discretion, and shall be final and binding on all persons, including, without limitation, the Company and all 2026 Plan participants.

Eligibility. Persons eligible to be granted Awards under the 2026 Plan are those employees, officers, directors, consultants, advisors and other service providers of the Company and any subsidiary who is determined by the Administrator to be a prospective employee, officer, director, consultant, advisor or any other service provider of the Company or any subsidiary.

Shares Subject to the 2026 Plan. The maximum aggregate number of shares of common stock available for issuance under all Awards granted to participants under the 2026 Plan is 22,500,000. In no event will the aggregate number of shares of common stock that may be issued upon the exercise of Incentive Stock Options ("ISOs") exceed 22,500,000.

To the extent that any Award payable in shares of common stock is forfeited, canceled, returned to the Company for failure to satisfy vesting requirements or upon the occurrence of other forfeiture events, or otherwise terminates without payment being made thereunder, the shares of common stock covered thereby will no longer be counted against the foregoing maximum share limitations and may again be made subject to Awards under the 2026 Plan pursuant to such limitations. If shares of common stock are withheld to cover withholding taxes on options or other awards or applied to the payment of the exercise price of an option or purchase price of an award, the number of shares as to which such option or award was forfeited, withheld or paid, will be available for future grants under the 2026 Plan. Awards settled in cash will not count against the number of shares available for issuance under the 2026 Plan.

No non-employee director may receive awards in any calendar year having a fair market value in excess of $750,000 (inclusive of any cash awards to the non-employee director for such year that are not made pursuant to the 2026 Plan); provided that in the case of a new non-employee director, such amount is increased to $1,000,000 for the initial year of the non-employee director's term; provided, further, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an Outside Director newly elected prior to September 1, 2026, such Outside Director may be granted Awards with respect to up to 200,000 shares of Common Stock for the initial year of the Outside Director's term.

The number of shares authorized for issuance under the 2026 Plan and the foregoing share limitations are subject to customary adjustments for stock splits, stock dividends, similar transactions or any other change affecting the common stock, or any other corporate transaction directly or indirectly affecting the Awards or any performance goals or the Company's financial performance, condition or result of operations.

Terms and Conditions of Options. Options granted under the 2026 Plan may be either ISOs or "nonstatutory stock options" ("NSOs") that do not meet the requirements of Section 422 of the Code. The Administrator will determine the exercise price of options granted under the 2026 Plan. The exercise price of stock options may not be less than 100% of the fair market value per share of the common stock on the date of grant (or 110% of fair market value in the case of ISOs granted to a ten-percent stockholder).

If on the date of grant the common stock is listed on a stock exchange or is quoted on the automated quotation system of the Nasdaq Capital Market, the fair market value will generally be the closing sale price on the date of grant (or the last trading day before the date of grant if no trades occurred on the date of grant). If no such prices are available, the fair market value will be determined in good faith by the Administrator based on the reasonable application of a reasonable valuation method.

No option may be exercisable for more than ten years (five years in the case of an ISO granted to a ten-percent stockholder) from the date of grant. Options granted under the 2026 Plan will be exercisable at such time or times as the Administrator prescribes at the time of grant. No employee may receive ISOs that first become exercisable in any calendar year in an amount exceeding $100,000.

Except as otherwise determined in an applicable award agreement, following a termination of service, an optionee may exercise the vested shares subject to an option for up to 90 days (or one year if such termination of service is due to death or disability), subject to the term of the option.

The Administrator may, in its discretion, permit a holder of an option to exercise the option before it has otherwise become exercisable, in which case the shares of common stock issued to the recipient will continue to be subject to the vesting requirements that applied to the option before exercise.

Generally, the option price may be paid in cash or by certified or bank check. The Administrator may permit other methods of payment, including (a) through delivery of shares of common stock having a fair market value equal to the exercise price, (b) subject to the approval of the Administrator, by a full recourse, interest bearing promissory note having such terms as the Administrator may permit, (c) by surrendering to the Company shares of common stock otherwise receivable on exercise of the option, (d) a cashless exercise program implemented by the Administrator in connection with the 2026 Plan and/or (e) such other method as may be approved by the Administrator.

No option may be transferred other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, and during a recipient's lifetime an option may be exercised only by the recipient or such recipient's guardian or legal representative. However, the Administrator may permit the holder of NSOs, SAR or certain other awards to transfer such Awards to immediate family members, a family trust for estate planning purposes or by gift to charitable institutions. The Administrator will determine the extent to which a holder of a stock option may exercise the option following termination of service with us.

Stock Appreciation Rights. The Administrator may grant SARs under the 2026 Plan. The Administrator will determine the other terms applicable to SARs. The base price for any grant of a SAR will not be less than 100% of the fair market value of a share of the common stock on the date of grant, as determined by the Administrator. The maximum term of any SAR granted under the 2026 Plan is ten years from the date of grant. Generally, each SAR will entitle a participant upon exercise to an amount equal to:

	●	the excess of the fair market value of a share of common stock on the date of exercise of the SAR over the base price of such SAR, multiplied by
	●	number of shares as to which such SAR is exercised.

Payment may be made in shares of common stock, in cash, or partly in common stock and partly in cash, all as approved by the Administrator.

Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units. The Administrator may award restricted common stock and/or restricted stock units under the 2026 Plan. Restricted stock awards consist of shares of stock that are transferred to a participant subject to restrictions that may result in forfeiture if specified conditions are not satisfied. Restricted stock units confer the right to receive shares of common stock, cash, or a combination of shares and cash, at a future date upon or following the attainment of certain conditions specified by the Administrator. The restrictions and conditions applicable to each award of restricted stock or restricted stock units may include performance-based conditions. Dividends or distributions with respect to restricted stock may be paid to the holder of the shares as and when dividends are paid to stockholders or at the time that the restricted stock vests, as determined by Administrator. If any dividends or distributions are paid in stock before the restricted stock vests they will be subject to the same restrictions. Dividend equivalent amounts may be paid with respect to restricted stock units either when cash dividends are paid to stockholders or when the units vest. Unless the Administrator determines otherwise, holders of restricted stock (but not restricted stock units) will have the right to vote the shares.

Performance Shares and Performance Stock Units. The Administrator may award performance shares and/or performance stock units under the 2026 Plan. Performance shares and performance stock units are awards, denominated in either shares or U.S. dollars, which are earned during a specified performance period subject to the attainment of performance criteria, as established by the Administrator. The Administrator will determine the restrictions and conditions applicable to each award of performance shares and performance units. As described above, the Administrator shall retain the discretion to adjust, up or down, or add, remove or otherwise waive or suspend, any performance goals, either based on a formula or on a discretionary basis or any combination thereof, with respect to an outstanding award in any respect without a participant's consent.

Incentive Bonuses. The Administrator may grant incentive bonus awards under the 2026 Plan from time to time. The terms of incentive bonus awards will be set forth in award agreements. Each award agreement will have such terms and conditions as the Administrator determines, including performance goals and amount of payment based on achievement of such goals. Incentive bonus awards are payable in cash and/or shares of common stock.

Other Stock-Based and Cash-Based Awards. The Administrator may award other types of equity-based or cash-based awards under the 2026 Plan, including the grant or offer for sale of shares of common stock that do not have vesting requirements and the right to receive one or more cash payments subject to satisfaction of such conditions as the Administrator may impose.

Effect of Certain Corporate Transactions. The Administrator may, at the time of the grant of an award provide for the effect of a change in control (as defined in the 2026 Plan) on any award, including (i) accelerating or extending the time periods for exercising, vesting in, or realizing gain from any award, (ii) eliminating, suspending, adjusting or modifying the performance or other conditions of an award, (iii) providing for the cash settlement of an award for an equivalent cash value, as determined by the Administrator or (iv) such other modification or adjustment to an Award as the Administrator deems appropriate to maintain and protect the rights and interests of Award holders upon or following a change in control.

Clawback/Recoupment. Awards granted under the 2026 Plan will be subject to the requirement that the awards be reduced, forfeited or amounts repaid to the Company after they have been distributed to the participant (i) to the extent set forth in an award agreement or (ii) to the extent covered by any clawback policy adopted by the Company from time to time, or any applicable laws that impose mandatory forfeiture or recoupment, under circumstances set forth in such applicable laws.

Amendment, Termination. The Board may at any time suspend, terminate or amend the 2026 Plan at any time and from time to time in such respects as the Board may deem advisable or in the best interests of the Company, provided that, no such amendment, suspension or termination shall materially and adversely affect the rights of any holder of outstanding Awards, without the consent of such holder, and further provided that without the consent of the Company's stockholders, the Board may not (a) increase the number of shares of common stock available under the 2026 Plan and (b) change the persons or class of persons eligible to receive Awards.

REPORT OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE*

The undersigned members of the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of ChronoScale Holdings Corporation submit this report in connection with the Audit Committee's review of the financial reports for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2026, as follows:

	1.	The Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed with management the audited financial statements for the Company for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2026.
	2.	The Audit Committee has discussed with representatives of CBIZ CPAs P.C., the Company's independent registered public accounting firm, the matters required to be discussed by the applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board ("PCAOB") and the Commission.
	3.	The Audit Committee has discussed with CBIZ, the independent public accounting firm, the auditors' independence from management and the Company has received the written disclosures and the letter from the independent auditors required by applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board.

In addition, the Audit Committee considered whether the provision of non-audit services by CBIZ is compatible with maintaining its independence. In reliance on the reviews and discussions referred to above, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board of Directors (and the Board of Directors has approved) that the audited financial statements be included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2026, for filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PERSONS

Related Party Transactions

In addition to the compensation arrangements discussed in the sections titled "Management" and "Executive Officer and Director Compensation," the following is a description of each transaction since January 1, 2024 and each currently proposed transaction in which:

	●	we have been or are to be a participant;
	●	the amount involved exceeded or will exceed $120,000; and
	●	any of our directors, executive officers, or holders of more than 5% of our capital stock, or any immediate family member of, or person sharing the household with, any of these individuals, had or will have a direct or indirect material interest.

Review, Approval, or Ratification of Transactions with Related Parties

We have adopted a written Related Party Transactions Policy that sets forth our procedures for the review, approval or ratification of transactions involving related parties. Under the policy, our Audit Committee or our Related Party Transactions Committee, as applicable, is responsible for reviewing and approving or ratifying related party transactions. Prior to entering into a related party transaction, the relevant facts and circumstances are reported to our Chief Financial Officer, who evaluates the proposed transaction and, if committee approval is required, submits the transaction and a summary of its material terms to the applicable committee for review.

In determining whether to approve or ratify a related party transaction, the applicable committee considers all relevant facts and circumstances, including, among other things, whether the transaction is in the ordinary course of business, whether it was initiated by us, Applied Parent or another related party, whether the terms are no less favorable to us than terms that could have been obtained from an unrelated third party, the purpose of and potential benefits to us from the transaction, the amount involved, the nature and extent of the related party's interest and any other information that would be material to investors. A transaction may be approved only if the applicable committee determines in good faith that, under all of the circumstances, the transaction is in our best interests.

Our Board has also established a Related Party Transactions Committee specifically to review, evaluate and approve or ratify, as appropriate, related party transactions involving Applied Parent, our majority stockholder, its subsidiaries and their respective officers and directors. The Related Party Transactions Committee is also responsible for overseeing our policies and procedures with respect to such transactions and for seeking to ensure that transactions involving Applied Parent are conducted on terms that are fair to, and in the best interests of, the Company.

Transactions with Applied Parent

Business Combination

On May 5, 2026, we consummated the previously announced Business Combination contemplated by that certain Contribution and Exchange Agreement dated February 15, 2026, by and among Ekso, APLD Intermediate, APLD ChronoScale HoldCo LLC, Contributor, each a wholly-owned direct or indirect subsidiary of Applied Parent, and Cloud, which immediately prior to the Closing was a wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of Applied Parent and a direct subsidiary of Contributor. Upon the Closing, Ekso changed its name to "ChronoScale Corporation" and Cloud became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Ekso. Following the Closing, we operated in two distinct business segments: the Cloud Business, which operated through Cloud, and the Legacy Ekso Business, which operated through Legacy Ekso, which is a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of Ekso.

Investor Rights Agreement

At the Closing, we entered into an investor rights agreement (as amended, the "Investor Rights Agreement") with the Contributor, pursuant to which, the APLD Designator (as defined therein) has the right to designate five (5) directors on our Board, including the Chairman (each such director, an "APLD Designee"). The initial APLD Designees are Wes Cummins (Chairman), Ella Benson, Douglas Miller, Richard Nottenburg and Andrew Schaap. The remaining Board members are Ying Cenly Chen, our Chief Executive Officer, William M. Clancy, and Scott G. Davis, the Chief Executive Officer of Legacy Ekso.

The Investor Rights Agreement provides that, (i) for so long as the APLD Investors (as defined therein) beneficially own at least 50% of our aggregate outstanding voting securities, the APLD Designator may designate five (5) directors, (ii) if the APLD Investors beneficially own at least 25% of our aggregate outstanding voting securities, the APLD Designator may designate four (4) directors; (iii) if the APLD Investors beneficially own at least 10% (but less than 25%) of our aggregate outstanding voting securities, the APLD Designator may designate three (3) directors; and (iv) if the APLD Investors beneficially own less than 10% of our aggregate outstanding voting securities, the APLD Designator may designate two (2) directors. In addition, the Investor Rights Agreement provides that the APLD Designator has the right, but not the obligation, to consent to any individual nominated for election to the Board seat initially occupied by the Chief Executive Officer of the Company, for so long as the APLD Investors collectively beneficially own at least 50% of the aggregate outstanding voting securities of the Company. Additionally, for so long as the APLD Investors continue to beneficially own at least thirty percent (30%) of the aggregate outstanding voting securities of the Company, the Board is prohibited from increasing the total number of directors on the Board to greater than eight (8) and, in no event shall any decrease in the number of directors on the Board, in any instance, eliminate, abridge, or otherwise modify the APLD Designator's designation rights, in each case, without the consent of the APLD Designator.

The Investor Rights Agreement also provides that, for so long as the APLD Investors continue to beneficially own at least 30% of the aggregate outstanding voting securities of the Company, we must obtain the prior written consent of the APLD Designator for certain corporate actions, including, but not limited to, commencing or approving any dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company, making any fundamental change in the nature of our business, amending our governing documents, incurring, creating, assuming or guaranteeing any indebtedness (subject to certain exceptions) and making or committing to make any acquisition, joint venture, partnership, strategic alliance or formation of any subsidiary.

Pursuant to the Investor Rights Agreement, the Contributor is entitled to preemptive rights for so long as it beneficially owns at least 10% of the Company's aggregate outstanding voting securities, subject to certain exemptions. When we propose to issue new equity securities, we must provide the Contributor with written notice specifying the securities to be offered, the price, and other material terms. Within 10 days of receiving this notice, the Contributor may elect to purchase up to the lesser of (i) 150% of its pro rata share of outstanding equity securities or (ii) 75% of the new securities being offered, with an oversubscription right for any unsubscribed securities.

Applied Parent PIPE Investment

In connection with, and as a condition to the Closing of the Business Combination, on May 1, 2026, we entered into that certain securities purchase agreement (the "Applied Parent SPA") with Applied Parent (the "Applied Parent PIPE Investment"), pursuant to which we issued to Applied Parent 1,311,407 shares of our common stock (the "Private Placement Shares"). The Private Placement Shares were sold at an offering price of $12.01 per share, the closing price of our common stock on April 30, 2026, the date immediately preceding the date of execution of the Applied Parent SPA, for gross proceeds to us of approximately $15.75 million. The closing of the transaction pursuant to the Applied Parent SPA took place on May 5, 2026, immediately prior to the Closing.

Services Agreement

At the Closing, we and Applied Parent entered into a Management Advisory and Corporate Services Agreement (the "Services Agreement"), pursuant to which Applied Parent provides management advisory and corporate services to us including financial, managerial, operational, strategic, financing, acquisition, and divestiture-related advice. We compensate Applied Parent for these services through a combination of management services fees based on a percentage of revenue and fixed fees for corporate and administrative services. We may also reimburse Applied Parent for certain costs incurred on its behalf.

Applied Parent Grid Note

On June 26, 2026, we, as the borrower, entered into a Demand Grid Promissory Note (the "Grid Note") with Applied Parent, as the lender. The aggregate principal amount available under the Grid Note is up to $100.0 million, reduced by the value of any of our liabilities guaranteed by the lender and a reserve amount determined by the lender. Advances on the Grid Note bear interest at the short-term Applicable Federal Rate, compounded semi-annually, and the Grid Note is payable on demand. On July 1, 2026, the Company drew $7.0 million under the Grid Note. Applied Parent has agreed not to exercise its demand right under the Grid Note prior to August 20, 2027.

Transactions with an entity of which a Board member is the CEO

For informational purposes only, we are disclosing that we are a party to a data center lease with a company of which one of our Board members is the Chief Executive Officer and a member of the board of directors. The lease was previously entered into in the ordinary course of business.

Indemnification of Officers and Directors

We have entered into indemnification agreements with certain of our current directors. These agreements require us to indemnify these individuals to the fullest extent permitted under Nevada law against liabilities that may arise by reason of their service to us, and to advance expenses incurred as a result of any proceeding against them as to which they could be indemnified. We may enter into indemnification agreements with our future directors.

Director Independence

PROPOSAL 2

APPOINTMENT OF CBIZ CPAS P.C. AS OUR INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDING MAY 31, 2027

Introduction

The Audit Committee is directly responsible for the appointment, compensation, retention and oversight of our independent registered public accounting firm. To execute this responsibility, the Audit Committee engages in a comprehensive evaluation of the independent registered public accounting firm's qualifications, performance and independence and whether the independent registered public accounting firm should be rotated, and considers the advisability and potential impact of selecting a different independent registered public accounting firm.

Change in Auditor

On May 5, 2026, the Audit Committee approved (i) the termination of the engagement of WithumSmith+Brown, PC ("Withum"), our independent registered public accounting firm prior to the Business Combination, and (ii) the engagement of CBIZ as the independent registered public accounting firm to audit our consolidated financial statements for the year ended May 31, 2026 (the "2026 Annual Report"). Subject to the completion of CBIZ's standard client acceptance procedures, CBIZ's appointment was effective immediately after the Closing. CBIZ serves as the independent registered public accounting firm of Applied Parent and therefore also served as the independent registered public accounting firm of Cloud, as a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of Applied Parent, prior to the Business Combination. Withum was informed on May 5, 2026, that it would not be retained to serve as our independent registered public accounting firm immediately after the Closing.

During the period from January 1, 2024 to December 31, 2025, and the subsequent interim period through May 5, 2026, there were no: (i) disagreements (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions) with Withum on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedures, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Withum would have caused Withum to make reference thereto in its reports on the consolidated financial statements for such years, or (ii) reportable events (as described in Item 304 (a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).

During the period from January 1, 2024 to December 31, 2025, and the subsequent interim period through May 5, 2026, neither the Company nor anyone on the Company's behalf consulted with CBIZ regarding (i) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the financial statements of the Company, and no written report or oral advice was provided to the Company by CBIZ that CBIZ concluded was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to the accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue; or (ii) any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement, as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K, or a reportable event, as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K of the Exchange Act.

The Audit Committee of the Board has appointed CBIZ to continue to serve as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending May 31, 2027. CBIZ is a successor via merger to Marcum LLP ("Marcum"), and CBIZ has served as our independent registered public accounting firm since May 5, 2026. In accordance with SEC rules and CBIZ policies, audit partners are subject to rotation requirements to limit the number of consecutive years an individual partner may provide audit service to us. For lead and concurring review audit partners, the maximum number of consecutive years of service in that capacity is five years. The process for selection of our lead audit partner pursuant to this rotation policy involves a meeting between the Chair of the Audit Committee and the candidate for the role, as well as discussion by the full Audit Committee and with management.

The Audit Committee and the Board believe that the continued retention of CBIZ as our independent registered public accounting firm is in the best interest of the Company and its stockholders and are asking the stockholders to ratify the selection of CBIZ as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending May 31, 2027.

Although ratification is not required by our Bylaws or otherwise, the Board is submitting the selection of CBIZ to our stockholders for ratification because we value our stockholders' views on our independent registered public accounting firm and as a matter of good corporate practice. In the event our stockholders do not ratify the appointment, the appointment may be reconsidered by the Audit Committee. Ratification of the appointment of CBIZ to serve as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending May 31, 2027 will in no way limit the Audit Committee's authority to terminate or otherwise change the engagement of CBIZ for the fiscal year ending May 31, 2027.

In connection with the audit of our financial statements for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2026, we entered into an agreement with CBIZ which sets forth the terms by which CBIZ performed audit services for us.

The following table presents fees billed to the Company for professional services rendered by our independent registered public accounting firm, CBIZ, for the fiscal years ended May 31, 2026 and May 31, 2025:

(in thousands)		Fiscal YearEnded May 31, 2026				Fiscal Year Ended May 31, 2025
Type of Fees:
Audit fees(1)		$	420,510			$	-
Audit-Related Fees(2)
Tax Fees(3)		$	29,160
All other fees			-				-
Total fees		$	449,670			$	-

	(1)	Audit Fees consist of fees for the audit of our annual financial statements for the respective year, reviews of our quarterly financial statements, services provided in connection with statutory and regulatory filings and the audit of our internal controls over financial reporting.
	(2)	Audit-Related Fees consist of fees for accounting consultations.
	(3)	Tax Fees consist of fees for tax compliance and tax advice and planning services.

For the fiscal year ended May 31, 2026, the Audit Committee approved all of the services provided by, and fees paid to CBIZ.

The Audit Committee has established a policy requiring approval by it of all fees for audit and non-audit services to be provided by the Company's independent registered public accountants, prior to commencement of such services. Consideration and approval of fees generally occurs at the Audit Committee's direction or by direction of the Audit Committee Chairman.

Attendance at Annual Meeting

Representatives of CBIZ will be present at the Annual Meeting and will have an opportunity to make a statement if they so desire and will be available to respond to appropriate questions from stockholders.

Required Vote

In accordance with our Bylaws, Nevada law and the Nasdaq Listing Rules, the ratification of the independent registered public accounting firm requires a majority of the total votes cast at the Annual Meeting, whether in person or represented by proxy. As a result, abstentions, if any, will not affect the outcome of the vote on this proposal. If this proposal is deemed to be "routine" as described above, no broker non-votes will occur on this proposal.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS THE STOCKHOLDERS VOTE "FOR" THE RATIFICATION OF THE INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM.

PROPOSAL 3

ADVISORY VOTE ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 (known as the Dodd-Frank Act) requires us to provide our stockholders with the opportunity to approve, on a nonbinding, advisory basis, the compensation of our Named Executive Officers. Our stockholders previously approved, in an advisory vote held at the 2024 annual meeting of stockholders, holding an advisory vote to approve the compensation of our NEOs annually.

We provide our stockholders with the opportunity to cast an annual advisory vote on the compensation of our named executive officers as disclosed in the compensation tables and the narrative disclosures that accompany those tables. At the Annual Meeting, we are seeking stockholder approval, on an advisory (non-binding) basis, of the compensation of our NEOs as disclosed under the "Executive Compensation" section of this Proxy Statement.

We encourage stockholders to review the compensation tables and the related narrative disclosure on pages 18 to 19 of this Proxy Statement. We believe that our compensation policies and decisions are designed to incentivize and reward the creation of stockholder value.

As described in this Proxy Statement, we believe that the Company's executive compensation program effectively aligns the interests of our NEOs with those of our stockholders by tying a significant portion of compensation to the Company's performance and by providing a competitive level of compensation needed to recruit, retain and motivate talented executive officers critical to the Company's long-term success.

On the basis of the compensation tables and the related narrative disclosure on pages 18 to 19 of this Proxy Statement, we are requesting that our stockholders vote on the following resolution:

RESOLVED, that the stockholders of ChronoScale Holdings Corporation approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of ChronoScale Holdings Corporation's Named Executive Officers, as described in the tabular disclosure regarding such compensation, and the accompanying narrative disclosure, set forth in this Proxy Statement.

Although this Say on Pay vote on named executive officer compensation is non-binding, the Board and the Compensation Committee will review the results of the vote and will take into account the outcome of the vote when determining future executive compensation arrangements.

Required Vote

In accordance with our Bylaws, Nevada law and the Nasdaq Listing Rules, the approval, on an advisory basis, of the executive compensation of the Company's named executive officers as described in this Proxy Statement, requires a majority of the total votes cast at the Annual Meeting, whether in person or represented by proxy. As a result, abstentions and broker non-votes, if any, will not affect the outcome of the vote on this proposal. If this proposal is deemed to be "routine" as described above, no broker non-votes will occur on this proposal.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS THE STOCKHOLDERS VOTE "FOR" THE ADOPTION OF THE RESOLUTION APPROVING THE COMPENSATION OF OUR NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS.

PROPOSAL 4

RATIFICATION OF CERTAIN RESTRICTED STOCK AWARDS GRANTED TO NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTORS UNDER THE 2026 PLAN

We are asking our stockholders to ratify certain restricted stock awards previously granted to the non-employee members of our Board under the 2026 Plan, as described below (collectively, the "Director Awards"). Stockholders are not being asked to approve or ratify the 2026 Plan or any amendment thereto.

Background

In connection with the Holding Company Transaction, we assumed all outstanding equity awards previously granted under the ChronoScale Corporation 2026 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan (as amended, the "Legacy Plan"). Such awards remain outstanding and continue to be governed by the terms of the Legacy Plan and the applicable award agreements, except that references to ChronoScale therein have been conformed, as appropriate, to reflect the Holding Company Transaction and our assumption of the awards. All future equity awards will be granted under the 2026 Plan.

On May 14, 2026, the Board approved an amendment to the Legacy Plan (the "Plan Amendment"). Prior to the Plan Amendment, no Outside Director (as defined in the Legacy Plan) was entitled to receive awards in excess of $1,000,000 for the initial year of their term. The Plan Amendment amended this limit for Outside Directors newly elected to the Board prior to September 1, 2026, permitting awards with respect to up to 200,000 shares of our common stock for the initial year of the Outside Director's term (which, based on the closing price of the Company's common stock as of the date of the Plan Amendment, had a fair market value greater than the dollar limit in effect prior to the Plan Amendment).

Also on May 14, 2026, the Board considered restricted stock awards to each of our non-employee directors. The disinterested members of the Board determined that it was advisable and in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders to grant each such director a Restricted Stock Award of 200,000 shares of our common stock. The disinterested members of the Board approved those grants under the 2026 Plan on the terms and conditions substantially in accordance with our standard form of Restricted Stock Award Agreement, a form of which has been filed as Exhibit 10.18 to our Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on August 19, 2026. The Director Awards are not contingent upon the approval of this proposal.

On June 29, 2026, Andrew Schaap was appointed to the Board. In connection with his appointment, the disinterested members of the Board approved a Restricted Stock Award to Mr. Schaap of 200,000 shares of our common stock under the 2026 Plan, on terms and conditions substantially in accordance with our standard form of Restricted Stock Award Agreement.

Accordingly, the Director Awards that are the subject of ratification under this proposal consist of Restricted Stock Awards of 200,000 shares of our common stock granted to each of the following non-employee directors:

Director		Amount		Grant Date
Wes Cummins		200,000		May 14, 2026
Ella Benson		200,000		May 14, 2026
Douglas Miller		200,000		May 14, 2026
Bill Clancy		200,000		May 14, 2026
Richard Nottenburg		200,000		May 14, 2026
Andrew Schaap		200,000		June 29, 2026
Total		1,200,000

The Director Awards vest as to 50% on the first anniversary of the applicable Grant Date and as to 50% on the second anniversary of the applicable Grant Date, subject to continued service through the applicable vesting date, subject to potential accelerated vesting in the event of a termination due to death or Disability, or in the event of a Change in Control (as each term is defined in the 2026 Plan), and pro-rata accelerated vesting in the event an Outside Director elects not to stand for reelection.

Reasons for Seeking Stockholder Ratification

The Board believes that equity-based compensation is an important component of the Company's non-employee director compensation program because it aligns the interests of our directors with those of our stockholders and provides an incentive for directors to contribute to our long-term success and growth. While the Director Awards are not contingent upon stockholder approval, the Board believes that submitting the Director Awards to stockholders for ratification is appropriate in light of the fact that the Director Awards were granted pursuant to the Plan Amendment.

We are seeking stockholder ratification of the Director Awards in light of the fact that the recipients are members of the Board and have a direct financial interest in their respective awards. Under Section 78.140 of the Nevada Revised Statutes, a transaction involving a director's financial interest is not void or voidable solely as a result of that interest if, among other alternatives, the material facts concerning the director's interest are known to the stockholders and the stockholders approve or ratify the transaction in good faith by the requisite stockholder vote. The Board expressly considered these Nevada statutory requirements and the interests of the director recipients in its approval of the Director Awards.

By approving this proposal, stockholders will ratify the Director Awards described above. Approval of this proposal will not constitute ratification of the Plan Amendment, any other amendment to the 2026 Plan, the 2026 Plan itself, or any other award made or that may in the future be made under the 2026 Plan.

Effect of Stockholder Approval

If this proposal is approved, the stockholders will be deemed to have ratified the grant of the Director Awards, pursuant to the 2026 Plan and on the terms and conditions of the applicable Restricted Stock Award Agreement.

Because stockholder ratification of the Director Awards is not required, if this proposal is not approved, the Director Awards will remain outstanding in accordance with their existing terms. The failure of stockholders to approve this proposal will not, by itself, rescind, cancel or otherwise affect the Director Awards. The Board will, however, consider the results of the stockholder vote in connection with its future consideration of non-employee director compensation.

Required Vote

In accordance with our Bylaws, Nevada law and the Nasdaq Listing Rules, the approval of this proposal requires a majority of the total votes cast at the Annual Meeting, whether in person or represented by proxy. As a result, abstentions and broker non-votes (see below), if any, will not affect the outcome of the vote on this proposal. If this proposal is deemed to be "routine" as described above, no broker non-votes will occur on this proposal.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS THE STOCKHOLDERS VOTE "FOR" THE RATIFICATION OF CERTAIN RESTRICTED STOCK AWARDS GRANTED TO NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTORS UNDER THE 2026 PLAN.

Adjournment of the Annual Meeting

In the event that the number of shares of common stock present or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and voting "FOR" the adoption of any of the foregoing proposals are insufficient to approve such proposals, we may move to adjourn the Annual Meeting in order to enable us to solicit additional proxies in favor of such proposals. If the adjournment is for more than thirty (30) days, a notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting.

For the avoidance of doubt, any proxy authorizing the adjournment of the Annual Meeting shall also authorize successive adjournments thereof, at any meeting so adjourned, to the extent necessary for us to solicit additional proxies in favor of the adoption of any such proposal.

ANNUAL REPORT

Additional copies of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2026 may be obtained without charge by writing to ChronoScale Holdings Corporation, 2440 Sand Hill Road, Suite 400 Menlo Park, California, Attn.: Secretary.

Our audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2026, and certain other related financial and business information are contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2026, which is being made available to our stockholders along with this Proxy Statement, but which is not deemed a part of the proxy soliciting material.

HOUSEHOLDING OF ANNUAL MEETING MATERIALS

To reduce the expense of delivering duplicate proxy materials to stockholders who may have more than one account holding our common stock but who share the same address, we have adopted a procedure approved by the SEC called "householding." Under this procedure, certain stockholders of record who have the same address and last name, and who do not participate in electronic delivery of proxy materials, will receive only one copy of our Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials and, as applicable, any additional proxy materials that are delivered until such time as one or more of these stockholders notifies us that they want to receive separate copies. This procedure reduces duplicate mailings and saves printing costs and postage fees. Stockholders who participate in householding will continue to have access to and utilize separate proxy voting instructions.

If you receive a single set of proxy materials as a result of householding, and you would like to have separate copies of our Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials, annual report, or proxy statement mailed to you, please submit a request or notice, as applicable, to our Corporate Secretary at ChronoScale Holdings Corporation, 2440 Sand Hill Road, Suite 400 Menlo Park, California, or by calling (214) 427-1704, and we will promptly send you what you have requested. However, please note that if you want to receive a paper proxy or voting instruction form or other proxy materials for purposes of this year's annual meeting, follow the instructions included in the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials that was sent to you. You can also contact our Investor Relations department at the phone number or address set forth above if you received multiple copies of the annual meeting materials and would prefer to receive a single copy in the future, or if you would like to opt out of householding for future mailings.

OTHER MATTERS

As of the date of this Proxy Statement, the Board does not intend to present at the Annual Meeting any matters other than those described herein and does not presently know of any matters that will be presented by other parties at the Annual Meeting. If any other matter requiring a vote of the stockholders should come before the Annual Meeting, it is the intention of the persons named in the proxy to vote with respect to any such matter in accordance with the recommendation of the Board or, in the absence of such a recommendation, in accordance with the best judgment of the proxy holder.

If you have any questions or require any assistance in voting your shares, please call:
