The transfer agent for the Trust (the “Transfer Agent”) is Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company. The responsibilities of the Transfer Agent are to maintain creations, redemptions, transfers, and distributions of the Trust’s Shares which are primarily held in book-entry form.

On December 9, 2024, the Trust completed a 5-for-1 Share Split of the Trust’s issued and outstanding Shares. In connection with the Share Split, shareholders of record on December 5, 2024, received four additional Shares of the Trust for each Share held. The number of outstanding Shares and per-Share amounts disclosed for periods prior to December 10, 2024 have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the effects of the Share Split.

On April 17, 2023, the Trust received notice that its Shares were qualified for public trading on the OTCQB U.S. Market (“OTCQB”) of OTC Markets Group Inc. On March 7, 2024, the Trust qualified to trade on the OTCQX Best Market®(“OTCQX”) of OTC Markets Group Inc. Until October 28, 2025, the Trust’s trading symbol on OTCQX was “GSOL.” On September 17, 2025, the SEC approved a proposed rule change for new Rule 8.201-E (Generic) with the SEC pursuant to Rule 19b-4 under the Exchange Act to amend NYSE Arca’s listing rules to permit the listing and trading of shares of certain commodity-based exchange-traded products that satisfy the Generic Listing Standards. On October 28, 2025, the Sponsor’s application to list and trade the Trust’s Shares on NYSE Arca under the Generic Listing Standards was approved and following the effectiveness of the Trust’s registration statement on Form S-1, as amended (File No. 333-286374), Shares of the Trust began trading on NYSE Arca on October 29, 2025. The Trust’s trading symbol on NYSE Arca is “GSOL” and the CUSIP number for its Shares is 38965D104.

The Trust may also receive Incidental Rights and/or IR Virtual Currency as a result of the Trust’s investment in SOL, in accordance with the terms of the Trust Agreement. Incidental Rights are rights to claim, or otherwise establish dominion and control over, any virtual currency or other asset or right, which rights are incident to the Trust’s ownership of SOL and arise without any action of the Trust, or of the Sponsor or Trustee on behalf of the Trust; IR Virtual Currency is any virtual currency tokens, or other asset or right, received by the Trust through the exercise (subject to the applicable provisions of the Trust Agreement) of any Incidental Right. As of September 30, 2025, the Sponsor has committed to cause the Trust to abandon irrevocably for no direct or indirect consideration, effective immediately prior to each time at which the Trust creates Shares, all Incidental Rights and IR Virtual Currency to which it would otherwise be entitled as of such time. In furtherance of that commitment, the custodial agreement in place as of September 30, 2025 between the Trust, the Sponsor and the Custodian provides that the Trust will abandon irrevocably, for no direct or indirect consideration, effective immediately prior to each Creation Time, all Incidental Rights or IR Virtual Currency to which it would otherwise be entitled as of such time.

However, the Sponsor has since authorized the commencement of the Trust’s redemption program on October 28, 2025 in connection with the uplisting of the Shares to NYSE Arca. Since the Uplisting Date, the Sponsor has committed to cause the Trust to abandon irrevocably for no direct or indirect consideration, effective immediately prior to each time at which the Trust creates or redeems Shares, all Incidental Rights and IR Virtual Currency to which it would otherwise be entitled as of such time. In furtherance of that commitment, the Prime Broker Agreement provides that the Trust is abandoning irrevocably, for no direct or indirect consideration, effective immediately prior to each Creation Time and each Redemption Time, all Incidental Rights or IR Virtual Currency to which it would otherwise be entitled as of such time. Furthermore, since the Uplisting Date, the Sponsor has committed to cause the Trust not to take any Affirmative Action to acquire any Incidental Rights or IR Virtual Currency, thereby irrevocably abandoning any Incidental Rights and IR Virtual Currency to which the Trust may become entitled in the future. Because the Sponsor has now committed to causing the Trust to irrevocably abandon all Incidental Rights and IR Virtual Currency to which the Trust otherwise would become entitled in the future, and causing the Trust not to take any Affirmative Actions, the Trust will not receive any direct or indirect consideration for the Incidental Rights or IR Virtual Currency and thus the value of the Shares will not reflect the value of the Incidental Rights or IR Virtual Currency. In addition, in the event the Sponsor seeks to change the Trust’s policy with respect to Incidental Rights or IR Virtual Currency, an application would need to be filed with the SEC by NYSE Arca seeking approval to amend its listing rules to permit the Trust to distribute the Incidental Rights or IR Virtual Currency in-kind to an agent of the shareholders for resale by such agent.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

In the opinion of management of the Sponsor of the Trust, all adjustments (which include normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 and results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 have been made. The results of operations for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations expected for the full year. These unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024 included in our Registration Statement on Form S-1, as amended (File No. 333-286374).

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Trust:

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”). The Trust qualifies as an investment company for accounting purposes pursuant to the accounting and reporting guidance under Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 946, Financial Services—Investment Companies. The Trust uses fair value as its method of accounting for SOL in accordance with its classification as an investment company for accounting purposes. The Trust is not a registered investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940. U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates and these differences could be material.

The Trust conducts its transactions in SOL, including receiving SOL for the creation of Shares and delivering SOL for the redemption of Shares and for the payment of the Sponsor’s Fee. As of September 30, 2025, the Trust was not accepting redemption requests from shareholders. Since its inception, the Trust has not held cash or cash equivalents. The Sponsor will determine the Trust’s net asset value (“NAV”) on each business day as of 4:00 p.m., New York time, or as soon thereafter as practicable.

3. Fair Value of SOL

SOL is held by the Custodian on behalf of the Trust and is carried at fair value. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Trust held 525,192.67339269 and 529,873.89849530 SOL, respectively.

The Trust determined the fair value per SOL to be $208.92 and $193.69 on September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, using the price provided at 4:00 p.m., New York time, by the Digital Asset Trading Platform Market considered to be the Trust’s principal market (Coinbase).

4. Creations and Redemptions of Shares

At September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, there were an unlimited number of Shares authorized by the Trust. The Trust creates (and, as of October 28, 2025, redeems) Shares from time to time, but only in one or more Baskets. The creation and redemption of Baskets on behalf of investors are made by the Authorized Participant in exchange for the delivery of SOL to the Trust or the distribution of SOL by the Trust. The amount of SOL required for each Creation Basket (or, after October 28, 2025, redemption Basket) is determined by dividing (x) the amount of SOL owned by the Trust at 4:00 p.m., New York time, on such trade date of a creation or redemption order, after deducting the amount of SOL representing the U.S. dollar value of accrued but unpaid fees and expenses of the Trust, by (y) the number of Shares outstanding at such time and multiplying the quotient obtained by 10,000. Each Share represented approximately 0.0726 and 0.0740 of one SOL at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. The decrease in the amount of SOL represented by each Share is primarily a result of the periodic withdrawal of SOL to pay the Sponsor’s Fee.

The cost basis of investments in SOL recorded by the Trust is the fair value of SOL, as determined by the Trust, at 4:00 p.m., New York time, on the date of transfer to the Trust by the Authorized Participant, or Liquidity Provider, based on the Creation Baskets. The cost basis recorded by the Trust may differ from proceeds collected by the Authorized Participant from the sale of each Share to investors. The Authorized Participant or Liquidity Provider may realize significant profits buying, selling, creating, and, after October 28, 2025, redeeming Shares as a result of changes in the value of Shares or SOL.

As of September 30, 2025, the Trust was not operating a redemption program and was not accepting redemption requests. On December 3, 2024, NYSE Arca filed an application with the SEC pursuant to Rule 19b-4 under the Exchange Act to list the Shares of the Trust on NYSE Arca. On April 4, 2025, the Sponsor filed with the SEC a registration statement on Form S-1, as amended through October 9, 2025, to register the Shares of the Trust under the Securities Act of 1933. On October 28, 2025, the Sponsor authorized the commencement of a redemption program when the registration statement on Form S-1 was declared effective. Please refer to the subsequent events as discussed in Note 10 for additional details.

5. Income Taxes

The Sponsor takes the position that the Trust is properly treated as a grantor trust for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Assuming that the Trust is a grantor trust, the Trust will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax. Rather, if the Trust is a grantor trust, each beneficial owner of Shares will be treated as directly owning its pro rata Share of the Trust’s assets and a pro rata portion of the Trust’s income, gains, losses and deductions will “flow through” to each beneficial owner of Shares.

If the Trust were not properly classified as a grantor trust, the Trust might be classified as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes. However, due to the uncertain treatment of digital assets, including forks, airdrops and similar occurrences for U.S. federal income tax purposes, there can be no assurance in this regard. If the Trust were classified as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the tax consequences of owning Shares generally would not be materially different from the tax consequences described herein, although there might be certain differences, including with respect to timing. In addition, tax information reports provided to beneficial owners of Shares would be made in a different form. If the Trust were not classified as either a grantor trust or a partnership

for U.S. federal income tax purposes, it would be classified as a corporation for such purposes. In that event, the Trust would be subject to entity-level U.S. federal income tax (currently at the rate of 21%) on its net taxable income and certain distributions made by the Trust to shareholders would be treated as taxable dividends to the extent of the Trust’s current and accumulated earnings and profits.

In accordance with U.S. GAAP, the Trust has defined the threshold for recognizing the benefits of tax positions in the financial statements as “more-likely-than-not” to be sustained by the applicable taxing authority and requires measurement of a tax position meeting the “more-likely-than-not” threshold, based on the largest benefit that is more than 50% likely to be realized. Tax positions deemed to meet the “more-likely-than-not” threshold are recorded as a tax benefit in the current period. As of, and during the periods ended September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Trust did not have a liability for any unrecognized tax amounts. However, the Sponsor’s conclusions concerning its determination of “more-likely-than-not” tax positions may be subject to review and adjustment at a later date based on factors including, but not limited to, further implementation guidance, and ongoing analyses of and changes to tax laws, regulations and interpretations thereof.

The Sponsor of the Trust has evaluated whether or not there are uncertain tax positions that require financial statement recognition and has determined that no reserves for uncertain tax positions related to federal, state and local income taxes existed as of September 30, 2025 or December 31, 2024.

6. Related Parties

The Trust considered the following entities, their directors, and certain employees to be related parties of the Trust as of September 30, 2025: DCG, GSO, GSIS, and Grayscale Securities. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, 225,904 and 297,606 Shares of the Trust were held by related parties of the Trust, respectively.

On October 27, 2025, the Sponsor and the Trustee entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Second A&R Trust Agreement in order to reduce the Sponsor’s Fee to 0.35%, effective as of the Uplisting Date. As a result, effective October 29, 2025, the Sponsor’s Fee was lowered from 2.5% to 0.35%. In accordance with the Trust Agreement governing the Trust, the Trust pays a fee to the Sponsor, calculated as 0.35% of the aggregate value of the Trust’s assets, less its liabilities (which include any accrued but unpaid expenses up to, but excluding, the date of calculation), as calculated and published by the Sponsor or its delegates in the manner set forth in the Trust Agreement (the “Sponsor’s Fee”). In accordance with the Trust Agreement governing the Trust, the Trust pays a fee to the Sponsor, which as of September 30, 2025 was calculated as 2.5% of the aggregate value of the Trust’s assets, less its liabilities (which include any accrued but unpaid expenses up to, but excluding, the date of calculation), as calculated and published by the Sponsor or its delegates in the manner set forth in the Trust Agreement (the “Sponsor’s Fee”). The Sponsor’s Fee accrues daily in U.S. dollars and is payable in SOL, monthly in arrears prior to the reduction in Sponsor’s Fees on October 29, 2025 and daily in arrears on and after October 29, 2025. The amount of SOL payable in respect of each daily U.S. dollar accrual will be determined by reference to the same U.S. dollar value of SOL used to determine such accrual. For purposes of these financial statements, the U.S. dollar value of SOL is determined by reference to the Digital Asset Trading Platform Market that the Trust considers its principal market as of 4:00 p.m., New York time, on each valuation date. The Trust held no Incidental Rights or IR Virtual Currency as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024. No Incidental Rights or IR Virtual Currencies have been distributed in payment of the Sponsor’s Fee during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024.

As partial consideration for receipt of the Sponsor’s Fee, the Sponsor is obligated under the Trust Agreement to assume and pay all fees and other expenses incurred by the Trust in the ordinary course of its affairs, excluding taxes, but including marketing fees; administrator fees, if any; custodian fees; transfer agent fees; trustee fees; the fees and expenses related to the listing, quotation or trading of the Shares on any secondary market (including customary legal, marketing and audit fees and expenses) in an amount up to $600,000 in any given fiscal year; ordinary course legal fees and expenses; audit fees; regulatory fees, including, if applicable, any fees relating to the registration of the Shares under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act; printing and mailing costs; the costs of maintaining the Trust’s website and applicable license fees (together, the “Sponsor-paid Expenses”), provided that any expense that qualifies as an Additional Trust Expense will be deemed to be an Additional Trust Expense and not a Sponsor-paid Expense.

The Trust may incur certain extraordinary, non-recurring expenses that are not Sponsor-paid Expenses, including, but not limited to, taxes and governmental charges, 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 interests of shareholders, any indemnification of the Custodian or other agents, service providers or counterparties of the Trust, the fees and expenses related to the listing, quotation or trading of the Shares on any secondary market (including legal, marketing and audit fees and expenses) to the extent exceeding $600,000 in any given fiscal year and extraordinary legal fees and expenses, including any legal fees and expenses incurred in connection with litigation, regulatory enforcement or investigation matters (collectively “Additional Trust Expenses”). In such circumstances, the Sponsor or its delegate (i) will instruct the Custodian to withdraw from the Vault Balance SOL in such quantity as may be necessary to permit payment of such Additional Trust Expenses and (ii) may either (x) cause the Trust (or its delegate) to convert such SOL into U.S. dollars or other fiat currencies at the Actual Exchange Rate or (y) when the Sponsor incurs such expenses on behalf of the Trust, cause the Trust (or its delegate) to deliver such SOL in kind to the Sponsor, in each case in such quantity as may be necessary to permit payment of such Additional Trust Expenses.

The Sponsor, from time to time, may temporarily waive all or a portion of the Sponsor’s Fee of the Trust in its discretion for stated periods of time. Effective November 5, 2025, the Sponsor has determined to waive a portion of the Sponsor’s Fee until the earlier of (x) February 5, 2026 and (y) the first date on which the NAV of the Trust exceeds $1.0 billion (such period, the “Fee Waiver Period”). If the Trust’s NAV exceeds $1.0 billion prior to February 5, 2026, the Sponsor’s Fee charged on assets over $1.0 billion will be 0.35%. All investors will incur the same Sponsor’s Fee, which is the weighted average of those fee rates. After the Fee Waiver Period is over, the Sponsor’s Fee will be 0.35%.

Prior to the Fee Waiver Period, for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, the Trust incurred Sponsor’s Fees of $635,091 and $454,714, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, the Trust incurred Sponsor’s Fees of $1,716,075 and $1,119,646, respectively. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, there were no accrued and unpaid Sponsor’s Fees. In addition, the Sponsor may pay Additional Trust Expenses on behalf of the Trust, which are reimbursable by the Trust to the Sponsor. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, the Sponsor did not pay any Additional Trust Expenses on behalf of the Trust.

7. Risks and Uncertainties

The Trust is subject to various risks including market risk, liquidity risk, and other risks related to its concentration in a single asset, SOL. Investing in SOL is currently highly speculative and volatile.

The Principal Market NAV of the Trust, calculated by reference to the principal market price in accordance with U.S. GAAP, relates primarily to the value of the SOL held by the Trust, and fluctuations in the price of SOL could materially and adversely affect an investment in the Shares of the Trust. The price of SOL has a limited history. During such history, SOL prices have been volatile and subject to influence by many factors, including the levels of liquidity. If Digital Asset Markets continue to experience significant price fluctuations, the Trust may experience losses. Several factors may affect the price of SOL, including, but not limited to, global SOL supply and demand, theft of SOL from global trading platforms or vaults, competition from other forms of digital currency or payment services, global or regional political, economic or financial conditions, and other unforeseen events and situations.

The SOL held by the Trust are commingled and the Trust’s shareholders have no specific rights to any specific SOL. In the event of the insolvency of the Trust, its assets may be inadequate to satisfy a claim by its shareholders.

There is currently no clearing house for SOL, nor is there a central or major depository for the custody of SOL. There is a risk that some or all of the Trust’s SOL could be lost or stolen. There can be no assurance that the Custodian will maintain adequate insurance or that such coverage will cover losses with respect to the Trust’s SOL. Further, transactions in SOL are irrevocable. Stolen or incorrectly transferred SOL may be irretrievable. As a result, any incorrectly executed SOL transactions could adversely affect an investment in the Shares.

The SEC, at least under the prior administration, has stated that certain digital assets may be considered “securities” under the federal securities laws. The test for determining whether a particular digital asset is a “security” is complex and difficult to apply, and the outcome is difficult to predict. A number of SEC and SEC staff actions with respect to a variety of digital assets demonstrate this difficulty. For example, public though non-binding, statements by senior officials at the SEC have indicated that the SEC did not consider Bitcoin or Ether to be securities, and does not currently consider Bitcoin to be a security. In addition, the SEC appears to have implicitly taken the view that Ether is not a security (i) by not objecting to Ether futures trading on Commodity Futures Trading Commission-regulated markets under rules designed for futures on non-security commodity underliers and (ii) by approving the listing and trading of exchange-traded products (“ETPs”) that invest in Ether (i.e., approving the redemption of shares of such ETPs) under the rules for commodity-based trust shares, without requiring these ETPs to be registered as investment companies. Likewise, in various courts filings and arguments the SEC has distinguished Ether from assets that it claimed were securities, and in judicial opinions, courts have accepted or even assumed that Ether is not a security. Moreover, in a recent settlement with another market participant relating to allegations that it acted as an unregistered broker-dealer for facilitating trading in certain digital assets, the SEC highlighted that the firm would cease trading in all digital assets other than Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash and Ether—activity that, if the SEC believed Ether was presently a security—would continue to constitute unregistered brokerage activity. The SEC staff has also provided informal assurances via no-action letter to a handful of promoters that their digital assets are not securities. Moreover, the SEC’s Division of Corporation Finance has published statements that it does not consider, under certain circumstances, “meme coins” or some stablecoins to be securities. However, such statements may be withdrawn at any time without notice and comment by the Division of Corporation Finance at the SEC or the SEC itself. In addition, the SEC has brought enforcement actions against the issuers and promoters of several other digital assets on the basis that the digital assets in question are securities and has not formally or explicitly confirmed that it does not deem Ether to be a security. These developments demonstrate the difficulty in applying the federal securities laws to digital assets generally. In January 2025, the SEC launched a crypto task force dedicated to developing a comprehensive and clear regulatory framework for digital assets led by Commissioner Hester Peirce. Subsequently, Commissioner Peirce announced a list of specific priorities to further that initiative, which included pursuing final rules related to a digital asset’s security status, a revised path to registered offerings and listings for digital assets-based investment vehicles, and clarity regarding digital asset custody, lending, and staking. However, the efforts of the crypto task force have only just begun, and how or whether the SEC regulates digital asset activity in the future remains to be seen.

If SOL is determined to be a “security” under federal or state securities laws by the SEC or any other agency, or in a proceeding in a court of law or otherwise, it may have material adverse consequences for SOL. For example, it may become more difficult for SOL to be traded, cleared and custodied as compared to other digital assets that are not considered to be securities, which could, in turn, negatively affect the liquidity and general acceptance of SOL and cause users to migrate to other digital assets. As such, any determination that SOL is a security under federal or state securities laws may adversely affect the value of SOL and, as a result, an investment in the Shares.

In addition, if SOL is in fact a security, the Trust could be considered an unregistered “investment company” under the Investment Company Act of 1940, which could necessitate the Trust’s liquidation. In this case, the Trust and the Sponsor may be deemed to have participated in an illegal offering of securities and there is no guarantee that the Sponsor will be able to register the Trust under the Investment Company Act of 1940 at such time or take such other actions as may be necessary to ensure the Trust’s activities comply with applicable law, which could force the Sponsor to liquidate the Trust.

To the extent a private key, held by the Custodian, required to access an address on the Solana Network holding SOL is lost, destroyed or otherwise compromised and no backup of the private keys are accessible, the Trust may be unable to access the SOL controlled by the private key and the private key will not be capable of being restored by the Solana Network. The processes by which SOL transactions are settled are dependent on the SOL peer-to-peer network, and as such, the Trust is subject to operational risk. A risk also exists with respect to previously unknown technical vulnerabilities, which may adversely affect the value of SOL.

The Trust relies on third-party service providers to perform certain functions essential to its operations. Any disruptions to the Trust’s service providers’ business operations resulting from business failures, financial instability, security failures, government mandated regulation or operational problems could have an adverse impact on the Trust’s ability to access critical services and be disruptive to the operations of the Trust.

The Sponsor and the Trust may be subject to various litigation, regulatory investigations, and other legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of its business.

8. Financial Highlights Per Share Performance

Ratios of net investment loss and expenses to average net assets have been annualized.

An individual shareholder’s return, ratios, and per Share performance may vary from those presented above based on the timing of Share transactions. The amount shown for a Share outstanding throughout the period may not correlate with the Statement of Operations for the period due to the number of Shares issued in Creations occurring at an operational value derived from an operating metric as defined in the Trust Agreement.

Total return is calculated assuming an initial investment made at the Principal Market NAV at the beginning of the period and assuming redemption on the last day of the period.

9. Indemnifications

In the normal course of business, the Trust enters into certain contracts that provide a variety of indemnities, including contracts with the Sponsor and affiliates of the Sponsor, DCG and its officers, directors, employees, subsidiaries and affiliates, and the Custodian as well as others relating to services provided to the Trust. The Trust’s maximum exposure under these and its other indemnities is unknown. However, no liabilities have arisen under these indemnities in the past and, while there can be no assurances in this regard, there is no expectation that any will occur in the future. Therefore, the Sponsor does not consider it necessary to record a liability in this regard.

10. Subsequent Events

As of the close of business on November 20, 2025, the fair value of SOL determined in accordance with the Trust’s accounting policy was $133.52 per SOL.

There are no known events that have occurred that require disclosure other than that which has already been disclosed in these notes to the financial statements.

Listing on NYSE Arca

Shares of the Trust began trading on NYSE Arca on October 29, 2025 (the “Uplisting Date”). On April 4, 2025, the Sponsor filed with the SEC a registration statement on Form S-1, as amended through October 9, 2025, to register the Shares of the Trust under the Securities Act of 1933. The registration statement on Form S-1 was declared effective on October 28, 2025.

On October 27, 2025, the Sponsor and the Trustee entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Second A&R Trust Agreement in order to reduce the Sponsor’s Fee to 0.35%, effective as of the Uplisting Date. As a result, effective October 29, 2025, the Sponsor’s Fee was lowered from 2.5% to 0.35%.

In connection with the above, the Sponsor authorized the commencement of a redemption program. Effective October 29, 2025, the Trust creates and redeems Shares at such times and for such periods as determined by the Sponsor, but only in one or more whole Baskets. A Basket equals 10,000 Shares. The creation of a Basket requires the delivery to the Trust of the amount of Solana represented by one Share immediately prior to such creation multiplied by 10,000. The redemption of a Basket requires distribution by the Trust of the amount of Solana represented by one Share immediately prior to such redemption multiplied by 10,000. The Trust may from time to time halt creations and redemptions for a variety of reasons, including in connection with forks, airdrops and other similar occurrences.

On or after October 1, 2025, the Sponsor on behalf of the Trust and the Transfer Agent entered into Participant Agreements with a number of unaffiliated Authorized Participants in connection with the listing and trading of the Shares on NYSE Arca.

In connection with the entry into the Participant Agreements referred to above, as of October 29, 2025, the Sponsor amended, solely, with respect to the Trust, the Participant Agreement, dated as of October 3, 2022, between the Sponsor and Grayscale Securities, to remove the Trust as an entity covered by the Agreement. Effective October 29, 2025, Grayscale Securities no longer serves as Authorized Participant of the Trust.

On October 3, 2025, the Trust, the Sponsor and Coinbase, Inc., the prime broker of the Trust (“Coinbase” or the “Prime Broker”), on behalf of itself and as agent for Coinbase Custody Trust Company, LLC (“Coinbase Custody” or the “Custodian”) and Coinbase Credit, Inc. (“Coinbase Credit” and, collectively with Coinbase and Coinbase Custody, the “Coinbase Entities”), entered into the Coinbase Prime Broker Agreement governing the Trust’s and the Sponsor’s use of the custodial and prime broker services provided by the Custodian and the Prime Broker. The Prime Broker Agreement establishes the rights and responsibilities of the Custodian, the Prime Broker, the Sponsor and the Trust with respect to the Trust’s SOL which is held in accounts maintained and operated by the Custodian, as a fiduciary with respect to the Trust’s assets, and the Prime Broker (together with the Custodian, the “Custodial Entities”) on behalf of the Trust. The Prime Broker Agreement became effective as of the Uplisting Date.

On October 9, 2025, the Sponsor of the Trust, and The Bank of New York Mellon (“BNY”) entered into a Transfer Agency and Service Agreement (the “Transfer Agency and Service Agreement”) engaging BNY to serve as the transfer agent for the Trust (the “Transfer Agent”) effective as of the Uplisting Date. Under the Transfer Agency and Service Agreement, the Transfer Agent will provide the following services to the Trust and the Sponsor as of the Uplisting Date: (1) facilitate the issuance and redemption of shares of the Trust; (2) respond to correspondence by Trust shareholders and others relating to its duties; (3) maintain shareholder accounts; and (4) make periodic reports to the Trust. Fees paid to the Transfer Agent are a Sponsor-paid Expense. BNY also serves as the administrator for the Trust (the “Administrator”), providing administration and accounting services to the Trust, pursuant to a
Fund Administration and Accounting Agreement dated as of October 9, 2025. The Administrator’s fees are paid on behalf of the Trust
by the Sponsor.

On October 9, 2025, the Sponsor and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, a Delaware corporation (“Continental”), entered into a Co-Transfer Agency Agreement (the “Co-Transfer Agency Agreement”) engaging Continental to serve as a co-transfer agent for the Trust (the “Co-Transfer Agent”). In connection with the entry into the Transfer Agency and Services Agreement with BNY and the Co-Transfer Agency Agreement with Continental, the Sponsor and Continental agreed to terminate, as of the Uplisting Date, the transfer agency and services agreement, dated December 12, 2017, among the Sponsor, the Trust and Continental, pursuant to which Continental served as transfer agent for the Trust. As a result, effective as of the Uplisting Date, Continental will no longer act as the transfer agent for the Trust but will continue to serve as the Co-Transfer Agent.

The Sponsor, on behalf of the Trust, is party to a marketing agent agreement dated October 3, 2025 (the “Marketing Agent Agreement”) with Foreside Fund Services, LLC (the “Marketing Agent”). Effective October 29, 2025, under the Marketing Agent Agreement, the Marketing Agent will provide the following services to the Sponsor: (i) assist the Sponsor in facilitating Participation Agreements between and among Authorized Participants, the Sponsor, on behalf of the Trust, and the Transfer Agent; (ii) provide prospectuses to Authorized Participants; (iii) work with the Transfer Agent to review and approve orders placed by the Authorized Participants and

transmitted to the Transfer Agent; (iv) review and file applicable marketing materials with FINRA and (v) maintain, reproduce and store applicable books and records related to the services provided under the Marketing Agent Agreement. The Sponsor will pay the Marketing Agent an annual fee, as well as certain out-of-pocket fees and expenses of the Marketing Agent incurred in connection with its assistance in the marketing of the Trust and its Shares.

Staking

On October 6, 2025, the Trust began staking its SOL pursuant to staking arrangements with the Custodian and certain third party
staking providers, as described in the Trust’s registration statement on Form S-1.

As of October 6, 2025, in connection with the Trust’s commencement of Staking, the Custodian and the Staking Provider are entitled to receive a portion of the gross Staking Consideration generated under the Staking Arrangements, reflecting the Custodian’s fee and the Staking Provider’s share of such Staking Consideration, with the remainder received by the Trust. In addition, pursuant to the Trust Agreement and as consideration for the Sponsor’s facilitation of Staking, the Sponsor is permitted to receive a fee equal to a portion of the Staking Consideration, payable in SOL (or, if applicable, in the form of any Other Staking Consideration), which accrues daily in U.S. dollars in an amount calculated as a per annum percentage of any Staking Consideration received by the Trust, as may be directed by the Sponsor in its sole discretion. The Sponsor’s Staking Portion is payable to the Sponsor daily in arrears. From November 5, 2025 until the earlier of (x) February 5, 2026 and (y) the first date on which the NAV of the Trust exceeds $1.0 billion (such period, the “Fee Waiver Period”), a portion of the fees associated with Staking will be waived, such that the Sponsor’s Staking Portion, the Custodian’s fee and the Staking Provider’s share of the Staking Consideration will comprise an aggregate of 5% of the gross Staking Consideration generated under the Staking Arrangements, with the Trust receiving and retaining the remainder of such gross Staking Consideration. After the Fee Waiver Period, the Sponsor’s Staking Portion, the Custodian’s fee and the Staking Provider’s share of the Staking Consideration will comprise an aggregate of 23% of the gross Staking Consideration generated under the Staking Arrangements. The Trust will receive and retain the remainder of such gross Staking Consideration.

Management Reorganization

On October 22, 2025, GSO Intermediate Holdings Corporation (“GSOIH”), a Delaware corporation which was the sole managing
member of GSO, a Delaware limited liability company which is the sole member of the Sponsor, consummated an internal corporate
reorganization (the “Management Reorganization”). Pursuant to the Management Reorganization, GSOIH transferred a portion of its
common membership units of GSO for Class A shares of Grayscale Investments, Inc. (“Grayscale Investments”), a Delaware
corporation incorporated in connection with the Management Reorganization, and ceded its managing member rights in GSO to
Grayscale Investments. As a result of the Management Reorganization, Grayscale Investments is now the sole managing member of GSO, the sole member of the Sponsor.

Also in connection with the Management Reorganization, on October 22, 2025, DCG Grayscale Holdco, LLC (“DCG Holdco”), the
sole stockholder of Grayscale Investments, elected a board of directors (the “Board”) at Grayscale Investments. Prior to the
Management Reorganization, GSOIH’s board of directors was responsible for managing and directing the affairs of the Sponsor. As a
result of the Management Reorganization, the Board of Grayscale Investments is responsible for managing and directing the affairs of
the Sponsor, and consists of Barry Silbert, Mark Shifke, Simon Koster, Peter Mintzberg and Edward McGee, the same members as
the board of directors of GSOIH prior to the Management Reorganization. Mr. Mintzberg and Mr. McGee also retain the authority
granted to them as officers of the Sponsor under the limited liability company agreement of the Sponsor. Mr. Silbert is the
Chairperson of the Board of Grayscale Investments.

DCG Holdco, Grayscale Investments, GSOIH, GSO and the Sponsor are all consolidated subsidiaries of Digital Currency Group, Inc.

The Sponsor does not expect the Management Reorganization to have any material impact on the operations of the Trust.

Sponsor’s Fee Waiver

Effective November 5, 2025, the Sponsor has determined to waive a portion of the Sponsor’s Fee until the earlier of (x) February 5, 2026 and (y) the first date on which the NAV of the Trust exceeds $1.0 billion (such period, the “Fee Waiver Period”). If the Trust’s NAV exceeds $1.0 billion prior to February 5, 2026, the Sponsor’s Fee charged on assets over $1.0 billion will be 0.35%. All investors will incur the same Sponsor’s Fee, which is the weighted average of those fee rates. After the Fee Waiver Period is over, the Sponsor’s Fee will be 0.35%.
