General

The Board is currently composed
of five directors, all of whom have two-year terms. The Company’s Articles of Incorporation lay out a staggered Board of Directors
into two Classes, I and II, and each class has an election every other year at the Annual Shareholder Meeting.

Directors. Our current
directors are Luke D’Angelo, Virgilio Llapitan, Albert L. Lord, Thomas J. Kozlowski, Jr., and Calvin D. Walsh.

There are no family relationships
among any of our directors or executive officers.

Nominees for Election as Class I Directors at the Annual Meeting

This year’s nominees
for election to the Board as Class I directors, each to serve for a term of two years expiring at the 2027 annual meeting of stockholders,
or until his successor has been duly elected and qualified, or until his earlier death, resignation, or removal, are Thomas J. Kozlowski,
Jr., and Calvin D. Walsh. Thomas J. Kozlowski, Jr. and Calvin D. Walsh were appointed by the Board of Directors in 2024, and both seek
reelection. Each nominee has agreed to serve as a director if elected, and we have no reason to believe that any nominee will be unable
to serve if elected.
