01 QUANTUM TO HOST ANNUAL SHAREHOLDERS MEETING FOLLOWED BY A LIVE PRODUCT DEMO ON WEDNESDAY APRIL 22, 2026

01 Quantum Inc. is hosting its annual and special meeting of shareholders on Wednesday, April 22, 2026, commencing at 4 p.m., at the offices of its lawyers, Fogler Rubinoff LLP, located at 40 King St. W, Suite 2400, Scotia Plaza, Toronto, Ont., M5H 3Y2.

Commencing at 4:30 p.m. following the conclusion of the formal portion of the meeting, Andrew Cheung, the company's chief executive officer, will host a live demonstration of two of its core IronCAP-based technologies: its Quantum AI Wrapper (QAW) and its quantum-resistant digital asset infrastructure, including $qONE and the Layer 1 Migration Toolkit. The live demonstration will showcase how 01 Quantum's technologies are being applied to two large and rapidly evolving markets: secure artificial intelligence and quantum-safe digital assets infrastructure. Registration for the event can be found below.

Mr. Cheung commented: "As we prepare to demonstrate our quantum cybersecurity technologies, we believe investors, partners and customers will gain a clearer understanding of how 01 Quantum's platform can be applied to real-world enterprise and digital asset use cases. Our Quantum AI Wrapper (QAW) combines full homomorphic encryption (FHE) with the company's IronCAP postquantum cryptography to help protect both user data and AI vendor intellectual property, while our Quantum Crypto Wrapper (QCW) and Quantum DeFi Wrapper (QDW) technologies are designed to help digital assets ecosystems, such as ethereum, solana, hyperliquid, and major stablecoins, to prepare for Q-Day, when quantum computers are predicted to become powerful enough to break current encryption standards, with potentially wide ranging impacts on all prevalent on-line privacy and security standards. These demonstrations will highlight the practical applications of our technology platform and the long-term market opportunities we are pursuing in advance of this next evolution in on-line security standards."

The live demonstration is expected to include:

• QAW demonstration: showcasing how QAW is designed to enable AI (artificial intelligence) systems to process encrypted data without exposing sensitive prompts, user data, model parameters or outputs;
• Encrypted AI inference use case: illustrating how QAW can support special-purpose AI models in high-security sectors such as financial services, health care, diagnostics, image recognition and network traffic analysis;
• QCW/QDW digital asset protection demonstration: highlighting 01 Quantum's quantum-resistant digital asset infrastructure, including the $qONE ecosystem token and a preview of qVAULT, the forthcoming quantum-safe vault developed for the qLABS foundation;
• Layer 1 Migration Toolkit overview: demonstrating how the toolkit is designed to help smart-contract-based blockchains transition toward postquantum security without disrupting existing infrastructure;
• IronCAP integration: showing how 01 Quantum's postquantum cryptography is being applied across both AI and blockchain environments;
• Commercialization road map: providing an update on how the company intends to advance these technologies through partner-driven deployment models and market-facing opportunities.
