The Audit Committee also discussed with Deloitte its independence from us. Deloitte provided to the Audit Committee the written disclosures and the letter required by applicable requirements of the PCAOB regarding the independent accountant’s communication with audit committees concerning independence and represented that it is independent from us. The Audit Committee also received regular updates on the amount of fees and scope of audit and tax services provided by Deloitte.

Based on the Audit Committee’s review and these meetings, discussions and reports, and subject to the limitations on the Audit Committee’s role and responsibilities referred to above and in its written charter, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board of Directors that AGM’s audited consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 be included in its annual report filed with the SEC. The Audit Committee has also appointed Deloitte as AGM’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025 and is presenting this selection to our stockholders for ratification.
