Dear Stockholder:

You are cordially invited to attend the annual meeting of stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”) of Intelligent Protection Management Corp. to be held on May 8, 2025 at 9:00 a.m., Eastern Time. The Annual Meeting will be conducted as a virtual meeting of stockholders by means of a live audio webcast. We believe that hosting a virtual meeting will enable greater stockholder attendance and participation from any location. You will not be able to attend the Annual Meeting in person. You will be able to attend the Annual Meeting online by visiting https://web.lumiconnect.com/207490181.

In January of 2025, we completed our acquisition of Newtek Technology Solutions, Inc. from NewtekOne, Inc. and the sale of our “Paltalk”, “Camfrog” and “Vumber” applications and certain assets and liabilities related to such applications to Meteor Mobile Holdings, Inc. (together, the “Transactions”). Following the Transactions, our business is focused on providing server hosting, cloud hosting, data storage, managed security, backup and disaster recovery, and other related services, including consulting and implementing technology solutions. We are very excited with the prospect of expanding our managed technology solutions business, particularly in the cloud infrastructure and cybersecurity sectors. We believe that cybersecurity is a technology area that is top of mind for all companies, small and large, and ripe for growth.

Enclosed are the notice of the Annual Meeting and proxy statement, which describe the business that will be acted upon at the Annual Meeting, as well as our 2024 Annual Report, which includes our audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024.

Your vote is very important, regardless of the number of shares of common stock you own. To vote your shares of common stock, please refer to the instructions included on the enclosed proxy card. If your shares are held in the name of a broker, trust, bank or other nominee and you receive these materials through such intermediary, please complete and return the materials in accordance with the instructions provided to you by your broker, trust, bank or other nominee or contact your broker, trust, bank or other nominee directly in order to obtain a proxy issued to you by your intermediary to vote your shares. Failure to do so may result in your stock not being eligible to be voted by proxy at the Annual Meeting. On behalf of the Board of Directors, I urge you to follow the instructions provided to you and vote your shares today, even if you plan to attend the virtual meeting.

Thank you for your support of our company. I look forward to speaking with you at the Annual Meeting.

Sincerely,

/s/ Jason Katz
