Summary

On October 17, 2025, the Hartman Group issued a final appeal to shareholders urging them to vote the BLUE proxy card before the voting deadline. The letter noted that Silver Star’s legal attempt to void blue votes and delay the meeting had been denied by the court, clearing the way for the vote to proceed. Al Hartman framed this as shareholders’ “final chance” to send a strong message against Silver Star’s actions and support the Hartman Shareholder Alliance’s campaign for the return of shareholder capital.

On October 17, 2025, the Hartman Group distributed the following letter to shareholders:

October 17, 2025

Dear Shareholder,

Today is the last day to vote. Silver Star was in court yesterday attempting to void all blue proxy votes and delay the meeting again. The court denied Silver Star’s requested relief.

Your Final Chance

This is your last opportunity. Vote today before the deadline.

Send a resounding message by voting the BLUE card. Show them that shareholder voices cannot be silenced.

Call us directly at (619) 664-4780 to vote for the BLUE card and for the return of your capital.

Sincerely,

Al Hartman
The Hartman Shareholder Alliance
