As previously reported in the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2025 (the “Affiliate’s 10-Q”), for Drugs Made In America Acquisition II Corp. (the “Affiliate”), an affiliate of Drugs Made In America Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”), between the completion of the Affiliate’s initial public offering on September 26, 2025 and September 30, 2025, the sponsor to the Affiliate (the “Sponsor”) withdrew an aggregate amount of $1,100,000 (the “Withdrawal”) from the Affiliate’s working capital account (the “Account”). Of the aggregate Withdrawal amount, $325,000 was used to repay an outstanding working capital note (the “Note”) to the Sponsor and $208,000 was used to repay other offering costs and expenses to the Sponsor, which amounts, in aggregate, were above the amounts previously advanced by the Sponsor to the Affiliate under the Note. An additional amount of $566,269 also appeared in the financial statements in the Affiliate’s 10-Q as an overpayment to the Sponsor by the Affiliate and between September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2025, the Sponsor withdrew additional funds from the Account, in an amount no less than $200,000 to pay for expenses unrelated to the Affiliate (the “Overpayment Amount”). On February 12, 2026, after the board of directors of the Affiliate (the “Affiliate Board”) directed the Sponsor to return the full Overpayment Amount, the Affiliate Board and the Affiliate’s Chief Financial Officer (the “Affiliate CFO”) learned that Sponsor would not be able to repay the Overpayment Amount back to the Affiliate. 

 

Based on the foregoing, on February 18, 2026, at the request of the Affiliate Board and the board of directors of the Company (the “Board”), Lynn Stockwell agreed to tender her resignation as Chief Executive Officer, Executive Chair of the Board and as a Board member of the Affiliate and as Chief Executive Officer, Executive Chair of the Board and as a Board member of the Company. The Board received notification of Ms. Stockwell’s resignation on February 28, 2026 and such resignation was effective upon receipt. The Board accepted Ms. Stockwell’s resignation and Ms. Stockwell was removed as Chief Executive Officer, Executive Chair of the Board and as a member of the Board.

 

As a result of the above conduct by the Sponsor and Ms. Stockwell, the Board adopted resolutions taking the following actions:

 

1. On February 28, 2026, Ms. Stockwell was removed as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Executive Chair of the Board and as a member of the Board; and

 

2. On February 28, 2026, Roger Bendelac was appointed to the position of Chief Executive Officer of the Company to be effective as of the date of Ms. Stockwell’s resignation as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer.

 

Mr. Bendelac’s background is as follows:

 

Roger Bendelac, 69 years old, has over 30 years of experience in investment banking, capital markets, and corporate advisory services. Since 2015, Mr. Bendelac has also engaged in corporate advisory and investment activities through multiple advisory entities under his direction, providing services in capital formation, mergers and acquisitions, public company structuring, and cross-border transactions. Since September 2025, he has served as a consultant with Silverbear Inc., a corporate business consulting firm. He has also served as a director for Apex AI Solutions Limited, an artificial intelligence applications and technology company since September 2025.

He is also currently a business consultant and has served as president and director of SP Associates Corp., a management consulting and corporate advisory services firm since March 2016.

 

There are no arrangements or understandings between Mr. Bendelac and any other person pursuant to which he was appointed as an officer of the Company. There are no family relationships between Mr. Bendelac and any director or executive officer of the Company. Mr. Bendelac has not been involved in any related party transaction required to be disclosed pursuant to Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.
