, provincial, local, and international regulatory authorities in the countries in which our products are distributed or sold and industry codes of conduct. From time to time, we receive government regulatory inquiries and requests for information and our approach is to be cooperative and educate the requesting government bodies about our company and products. For example, on October 12, 2023, the Company announced that the FTC had requested information about certain aspects of its marketing practices. The Company reached a settlement with the FTC and on December 5, 2024, a Stipulated Order for Permanent Injunction and Other Relief (the “Order”) was entered in the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts Eastern Division. The Order (i) required that we permit a limited cohort of school customers to cancel their contracts, (ii) required that we take certain compliance actions and meet record keeping obligations, and (iii) enjoined we from making misleading or unsubstantiated marketing claims. The Order did not include any monetary relief. The period during which eligible customers could have cancelled closed on March 30, 2025.

In November 2024, the Company self-reported the Investigation to the Division of Enforcement of the SEC. The Company has since received requests for documents and information from the SEC relating to this matter. The Company received a voluntary document request from the U.S. Attorney’s Office of the Southern
