Equipment notes payable

On September 22, 2021, the Company entered into a borrowing arrangement with Banco Hipotecario secured against the Company’s assets in El Salvador. The promissory note provided for a principal amount of $1.5 million, with a final maturity date of 36 months after disbursal with equal monthly installment payments of $47 thousand and a moratorium of 2 months. Interest as defined in the loan arrangement is 7.5% per annum. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the outstanding principal was $0.

On September 19, 2024, the Company and Taproot Acquisition Enterprises, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, entered into an Omnibus Equipment Refinancing Agreement providing for the refinance of the Company’s debt obligations previously incurred in connection with the purchase of Bitcoin ATMs pursuant to the previously entered into equipment financing agreements for the purchase of the equipment by the Company from Taproot. The parties agreed that the total outstanding balance of $2.1 million would be paid by one inception payment of $1.2 million upon the execution of the agreement and followed by weekly payments of $20 thousand for a period of 48 weeks. The Omnibus Equipment Refinancing Agreement also contains representations and warranties of both parties with respect to clear and marketable title of the equipment and provides provisions addressing an event of default by the Company as a purchaser of the equipment. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the outstanding principal was $0 and $643 thousand, respectively.

On October 30, 2024, the Company entered into an Equipment Financing Agreement with Taproot (the “Financing Agreement”) to purchase certain Bitcoin ATMs listed in the Financing Agreement. The Financing Agreement amends and supersedes previous equipment purchase agreements between the parties. Under the Financing Agreement, the Company will acquire from Taproot installed Bitcoin ATMs or additional Bitcoin ATMs at the price per Bitcoin ATM set forth in the Equipment Agreement. The down payment was to be paid in 4 installments with the first payment due and paid by the Company as of October 31, 2024, and the last payment due by January 31, 2025; which last payment was made on January 27, 2025.

In addition, the Company agreed to pay a fee equal to 0.8% of the revenue (to be paid weekly) derived from the sale of Bitcoin in each Bitcoin ATM location until the expiration of the term of the Financing Agreement (36 months) or until full payment of the total purchase price for the equipment subject to certain additional limitations. The Financing Agreement also provides the provisions addressing the event of default by either Taproot or the Company, and respective available remedies. Certain property on which the equipment units are located are subject to merchant agreements (as listed in the Financing Agreement), and the Financing Agreement provides for assignment and assumption of merchant agreements and leases, as may be applicable. Furthermore, Taproot is to maintain a first priority interest on the Bitcoin ATMs until fully paid for. In connection therewith, the Company, Taproot and KGPLA Holdings LLC (“KGPLA”), an entity in which Mike Komaransky, a former director and principal shareholder of the Company has a controlling interest and whose Chief Investment Officer is Huaxing “Jason” Lu, our director, entered into a First Amendment to the Intercreditor Agreement dated as of October 23, 2024, pursuant to which KGPLA agreed to the subordination of its first priority security position on collateral of the Company to Taproot. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the outstanding principal balance was $0 and $5.8 million, respectively. As described below, on September 4, 2025, all outstanding obligations with Taproot, and its affiliated entities (the “Taproot Parties”) were terminated and replaced with a Release and Termination Agreement; therefore, as of September 30, 2025, the principal outstanding balance of the Equipment Financing Agreements, the Omnibus Equipment Refinancing Agreement, the Location Referral Agreement, the Client Services Agreement, and the Development Services Agreement was $0. See table below for balances of the aforementioned loans as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.
