Virtual Meeting Information

Why are you holding a virtual meeting instead of a physical meeting?

The Annual Meeting will be conducted in an online, virtual-only format. This format enables us to leverage technology to communicate more efficiently with our shareholders. We can provide a consistent experience for all our shareholders regardless of geographic location and allow all shareholders with Internet access to attend and participate in the meeting without the cost of travel. We have designed the virtual meeting format to provide the same participation opportunities as were provided at our past in-person meetings, including the ability to vote your shares and ask questions during the meeting.

How do I participate in the meeting?

To participate in the virtual meeting, visit www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/SYBT2025 and enter the 16-digit control number located on your Notice or email notice or, if you received a paper copy of the proxy materials, your proxy card or voting instruction form. You may log into the meeting platform beginning at 9:45 a.m., Eastern Time, on April 24, 2025. The live audio webcast will begin promptly at 10:00 a.m., Eastern Time. We encourage shareholders to access the virtual meeting web site prior to the start of the meeting and to allow sufficient time to complete the online registration process.
