("Etronium AI"), a North Carolina-based technology company developing agentic AI frameworks for hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) workflows. The Company invested in Etronium AI through two separate investments made on April 7, 2026 and May 19, 2026. “Etronium AI is building a platform that allows AI systems to write, deploy, and test code directly on physical hardware, helping bridge the gap between simulation and real-world robotics,” said Sean Da, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of AMC Robotics. “By validating AI performance against live hardware rather than simulation alone, their technology directly attacks one of the most time-consuming and costly stages of robotics development. We expect this capability to meaningfully accelerate our own product roadmap—shortening development cycles and improving the reliability of platforms such as Kyro™ and NovaArm™. As robotics and edge AI move toward real-world deployment at scale, the ability to build and validate intelligent systems faster and more efficiently is becoming a decisive competitive advantage. This investment gives AMC Robotics early, strategic access to a foundational capability that strengthens our products and sharpens our position across industrial, security, and commercial markets.” Strategic Rationale Etronium AI is addressing a core challenge in AI deployment: enabling AI systems to reliably interact with physical hardware in a testable and iterative environment. As AI extends beyond cloud environments into robotics, embedded systems, and edge computing, hardware-aware intelligence is becoming a key differentiator in building autonomous systems. Etronium AI's proprietary agentic platform leverages large language models (LLMs) to enable AI agents to interact directly with physical devices. The platform supports firmware development, hardware knowledge management, device monitoring, and hardware-in-the-loop testing across diverse microcontrollers, operating systems, and connectivity protocols. By combining AI-driven automation with live hardware feedback, Etronium AI is designed to streamline the development, validation, and deployment of intelligent systems in real-world environments. The platform delivers measurable efficiency gains, including a 30-50% reduction in time-to-prototype, 40-60% reduction in integration effort, and 30-50% fewer debugging and diagnosis iterations. These efficiencies align with AMC Robotics’ development roadmap for its Kyro™ quadruped robotic platform and NovaArm™ warehouse logistics robot. This investment supports AMC Robotics’ broader strategy to build an ecosystem of enabling technologies that accelerate robotics development, reduce time-to-market, and improve system intelligence across industrial, security, and commercial applications. Investment Terms Each SAFE entitles AMC Robotics to receive equity in Etronium AI upon the occurrence of certain future qualifying events, including a bona fide equity financing, liquidity event, or dissolution event, subject to the terms and conditions of the respective agreements. Copies of the SAFEs are filed as exhibits to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on June 4, 2026. About Etronium AI Inc. Etronium AI Inc. is a North Carolina-based AI technology company developing agentic AI frameworks optimized for hardware-in-the-loop workflows. The Company was co-founded by Duke University electrical and computer engineering professors Hai “Helen” Li, Ph.D., and Tingjun Chen, Ph.D. Etronium AI's platform enables AI agents to collaborate directly with physical devices, compiling and flashing firmware, building hardware skill libraries, monitoring real-world system behavior, and adapting in real time. Etronium AI’s technology targets applications across industrial automation, robotics, AIoT and edge systems, smart infrastructure, wearable health devices, and developer education.
