LOS ANGELES, April 17, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — AIxCrypto Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: AIXC) (“AIxC” or the “Company”), a Nasdaq-listed technology company building a three-layer architecture spanning the infrastructure, protocol, and application layers, today provided an update regarding the amended and restated securities purchase agreement entered into by Faraday Future Intelligent Electric Inc. (NASDAQ: FFAI) (“FFAI”) and Gold King Arthur Holding Limited (“GKA”), a designated third-party investor identified by AIxC, in connection with the investment transaction previously announced by the parties. The amendment increases the total investment amount from $10 million to $12 million and includes updates to the transaction structure, pricing mechanism, and other terms.

Under the amended structure, the investment consists of a combination of common stock and preferred equity, with $500,000 used to purchase FF Class A common stock and $11.5 million used to purchase newly created Series C preferred stock. In addition, the original True-Up provision has been removed and replaced with a warrant to purchase up to 1,000,000 shares of FF common stock at an exercise price of $1.50 per share, expiring in April 2030. The warrant will become exercisable after FF delivers its 500th FX Super One vehicle.

The amendment also adjusts the pricing mechanism. The purchase price of the common stock and the conversion price of the preferred stock are based on the average closing price over the 10 trading days prior to signing. Based on a reference price of $0.25956 per share as of April 14, 2026, the $500,000 common stock investment corresponds to approximately 1,926,337 shares of Class A common stock.

The transaction was facilitated through a designated third-party investment entity and represents one of the Company’s approaches to exploring the integration of Real World Assets (RWA) with blockchain infrastructure. The Company is exploring the potential use of the associated equity as underlying assets for future tokenization-related applications, aiming to expand the role of digital assets in real-world economic scenarios.

The Company stated that it will continue to advance its RWA-related framework and strengthen its capabilities in connecting traditional capital markets with Web3 infrastructure.

Management Commentary

Kevin Richardson, Co-CEO of AIxC, stated: “The amendment to the securities purchase agreement reflects our continued confidence in Faraday Future’s execution roadmap. The milestone-linked warrant ensures this investment retains meaningful upside tied to FF’s vehicle delivery progress, while securing a more flexible framework to support our blockchain ecosystem.”

As AI Speeds Up Marketing, Louisville’s RedTag Bets on Strategy

Published

Independent agency unveils new brand and website, and co-hosts Louisville’s PROOF AI Workshop

LOUISVILLE, Ky., Oct. 17, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — RedTag, an independent Louisville-based marketing agency, this month unveiled new positioning, marking its evolution from a digital performance agency into a strategy-first marketing partner. The move comes as AI makes execution faster than ever, and RedTag is betting that strategy, not speed, is what will set businesses apart. Clients can now choose from outcome-based programs that best fit their marketing needs. 

“Clients don’t come to us needing more tactics. They come to us needing a path,” said Russ Renbarger, founder and CEO of RedTag. “Our new brand says out loud what our work has shown for years: We start with strategy and build everything on that foundation.”

RedTag built its reputation on high-performing paid digital campaigns. Over the years, the agency expanded into strategy, creative, video production and website development, giving clients one partner for the full scope of their marketing. Most recently, a team of automation specialists has integrated AI across the agency to speed up production and analysis, guided by an internal AI policy that keeps people accountable for quality. The time AI saves goes back into strategy: knowing what to say, who to say it to and why.

“Our best client relationships have always been partnerships, where we’re in the room when the big decisions get made,” said Alison Conway, chief client officer at RedTag. “This evolution is about bringing that strategic partnership to every client.”

On Oct. 14, RedTag co-hosted the PROOF AI Workshop with Slingshot, Vsimple and Advanced Business Solutions. The hands-on event gave Louisville business leaders practical experience applying AI to their own work. RedTag led the event’s AI in Marketing and Branding track, with four sessions ranging from AI search optimization to a playbook for adopting AI across an organization.

“AI can produce hundreds of ads in an afternoon, but it can’t tell you which one your brand actually needs and why,” Renbarger said. “The faster the tools get, the more valuable human-led strategy becomes.”

RedTag was named the agency of record for the Commonwealth of Kentucky in 2025. Its client list includes PGA of America, Castle & Key Distillery, Bourbon Barrel Foods, ShopCaterpillar and American Beverage Marketers. Since 2023, RedTag’s work has received two Emmy Awards and more than 35 ADDY and AIGA awards. The agency is a four-time Louisville Business First Fast 50 honoree and was named one of the 2026 Best Places to Work in Kentucky.

“NAMB MORE represents a significant investment in the future of mortgage professionals and the continued advancement of our industry,” said Michael Farrell, President of NAMB. “We wanted to create more than a collection of courses; we wanted to build a resource that professionals can turn to throughout their careers. NAMB MORE delivers valuable education, professional development and practical information members can apply to their businesses daily. ‘NAMB has MORE’ is a mantra the entire organization embraces, reflecting our commitment to providing the industry with innovative tools that support professional growth, strengthen advocacy and help foster our members’ success. “MORE was developed with the mortgage industry in mind, with NAMB and subject-matter experts contributing to the platform’s educational content.”

Additional learning resources and credentials are designed to help mortgage professionals continue developing their skills as their careers evolve.

A key component of the new platform is the MORE Daily Dashboard, which serves as the home screen members see when they log into MORE. Rather than requiring members to visit the platform only when completing a course or pursuing a credential, the Daily Dashboard is designed to give mortgage professionals a reason to return every day.

The Daily Dashboard currently features:

Mortgage Rate Alert Widget: Provides information about the factors affecting mortgage rates and refreshes at least hourly.Upcoming Events: Highlights NAMB events and opportunities so members can stay connected to the association and industry.Daily Access to MORE: Provides a central starting point for accessing education, professional development and other resources.

Whether someone is checking the latest rate information, looking for an upcoming NAMB event or continuing their professional education, MORE puts useful resources in one place.”
