Distribution Date Press Release

In connection with Vinco Ventures, Inc.’s (the “Company” or “Vinco”) previously announced spin-off of Cryptyde, Inc. (“Cryptyde”), on May 5, 2022, the Company announced that each Company stockholder of record as of the close of business on May 18, 2022 (the “Record Date”) will receive one share of Cryptyde’s common stock for every ten shares of Company common stock held. On June 23, 2022, the Company issued a press release announcing that the Company’s Board of Directors had set June 29, 2022 (the “Distribution Date”) as the distribution date for the dividend of shares of its common stock of Cryptyde to be distributed, subject to certain conditions, to Vinco stockholders in order to effect the previously disclosed separation of Vinco and Cryptyde into two independent, publicly traded companies.

A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

Cryptyde previously filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) a registration statement on Form 10, initially filed on November 8, 2021 (as amended, the “Registration Statement”), relating to the separation of Cryptyde from Vinco by means of a spin-off. On May 16, 2022, the Registration Statement was declared effective by the SEC.
