VanEck Solana ETF Shares of Beneficial Interest

The Trust's primary investment objective is to replicate the price movements of Solana (SOL). Furthermore, it aims to benefit from the rewards generated by staking a portion of its SOL, assuming the Sponsor, in its sole discretion, determines this can be achieved without incurring significant legal or regulatory risks—for example, by undermining the Trust's eligibility as a grantor trust for tax purposes. These pursuits are net of the Trust's operational expenses. The "Gross Staking Yield" specifically denotes the yield earned by the Fund from its staking activities; it is not a metric of investor performance nor a yield received directly by investors. It is important to note that staking yields are not guaranteed, can vary frequently, and may even result in zero or negative returns.
