The Trust agreed to pay the unitary Sponsor Fee of 0.20% per annum of the Trust’s solana holdings. The Sponsor contractually waived the Sponsor Fee on the first $1 billion of Trust assets through January 27, 2025,2026, andthe Sponsor Fee has been accruing at an annual rate of 0.20% of the Trust’s net assets since then. As a result, the only ordinary expense of the Trust is expected to be the Sponsor Fee. In exchange for the Sponsor Fee, the Sponsor has agreed to assume and pay the normal operating expenses of the Trust, which include the Trustee’s monthly fee and out-of-pocket expenses, the fees of the Trust’s regular service providers (Cash Custodian, Solana Custodian, Prime Execution Agent, Marketing Agent, Transfer Agent and Administrator), exchange listing fees, tax reporting fees, SEC registration fees, printing and mailing costs, audit fees and up to $500,000 per annum in ordinary legal fees and expenses. The Sponsor may determine in its sole discretion to assume legal fees and expenses of the Trust in excess of $500,000 per annum. The Sponsor also agreed to pay the costs of the Trust’s organization.

Reworded

The Trust may incur certain extraordinary, non-recurring expenses that are not assumed by the Sponsor, includingincluding, but not limited to, taxes and governmental charges, any applicable brokerage commissions, financing fees, Solana network fees and similar transaction fees, expenses and costs of any extraordinary services performed by the Sponsor (or any other service provider) on behalf of the Trust to protect the Trust or the Shareholders (including, for example, in connection with any fork of the Solana blockchain, any Incidental Rights and any IR Asset), any indemnification of the Cash Custodian, Solana Custodian, Prime Execution Agent, Transfer Agent, Administrator or other agents, service providers or counterparties of the Trust, and extraordinary legal fees and expenses, including any legal fees and expenses incurred in connection with litigation, regulatory enforcement or investigation matters.

Reworded

The Trust does not hold a cash balance except in connection with the creation and redemption of Baskets (blocks of 10,000 Shares) or to pay expenses not assumed by the Sponsor. To pay for expenses not assumed by the Sponsor that are denominated in U.S. dollars, the Sponsor, on behalf of the Trust, may sell the Trust’s solana as necessary to pay such expenses. The cash proceeds of the sale are sent to the Sponsor to pay the expenses. Any remaining cash is distributed back to the Cash Custodian. The Sponsor expects that the Trust will have an immaterial amount of cash flow from its operations and that its cash balance will be insignificant at the end of each reporting period. The Trust’s only sources of cash are proceeds from the sale of Baskets and solana. The Trust will not borrow to meet liquidity needs. See Part I, Item I under the heading “Business - Fees and Expenses” for an additional discussion of the Trust’s fees and expenses.

Added

On October 23, 2025 (commencement of operations), the Trust began staking its solana pursuant to staking arrangements with the Staking Agents and earns Staking Rewards in the form of additional solana. The amount of Staking Rewards received by the Trust is influenced by factors including Solana Network conditions, protocol-level reward rates, the amount of solana held by the Trust and the portion of the Trust’s solana that is staked, and the Trust does not expect Staking Rewards to be earned at a consistent rate. Staking also introduces operational and liquidity considerations, including that staked solana may be inaccessible for a period of time required to un-stake and withdraw solana under Solana Network protocols and the Trust’s dependence on its Staking Agents for the execution of staking activities.

Added

Pursuant to the Trust’s staking arrangements and the Trust Agreement, a portion of gross Staking Rewards is allocated among the applicable Staking Agents and the Sponsor (the Sponsor’s “Staking Fee”), with the remainder retained by the Trust. Staking Rewards retained by the Trust increase the Trust’s solana holdings, while distributions or sales of solana reduce the Trust’s solana holdings. The Trust may distribute Staking Rewards (in solana or cash from the sale of solana) to shareholders at the Sponsor’s discretion and subject to the Trust Agreement.

Reworded

As of MarchJune 31,30, 2026, the Trust has not used, nor does it expect to use in the future, special purpose entities to facilitate off-balance sheet financing arrangements and has no loan guarantee arrangements or off-balance sheet arrangements of any kind other than agreements entered into in the normal course of business, which may include indemnification provisions related to certain risks service providers undertake in performing services which are in the best interests of the Trust. While the Trust’s exposure under such indemnification provisions cannot be estimated, these general business indemnifications are not expected to have a material impact on the Trust’s financial position.

Reworded
