| Q: | What shares can I vote? |

| A: | Each share of our common stock issued and outstanding as of the close of business on April 23, 2025, the record date for the annual meeting, is entitled to be voted on all items being voted upon at the annual meeting. The record date for the annual meeting is the date used to determine both the number of shares of our common stock that are entitled to be voted at the annual meeting and the identity of the shareholders of record and beneficial owners of those shares of common stock who are entitled to vote those shares at the annual meeting. On the record date for the annual meeting, we had 40,623,928 shares of common stock issued and outstanding. |

You may vote all shares owned by you as of the record date for the annual meeting, including (1) shares held directly in your name as the shareholder of record; and (2) shares held for you as the beneficial owner through a broker, trustee or other nominee such as a bank.

Shareholder of Record If your shares are registered directly in your name with our transfer agent, Computershare, you are considered, with respect to those shares, the shareholder of record, and these proxy materials are being sent directly to you by us.

Beneficial Owner If your shares are held in a brokerage account or by another nominee, you are considered the beneficial ownerof shares held in street name and these proxy materials are being forwarded to you together with a voting instruction card. As the beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your broker, trustee or nominee how to vote and are also invited to attend the annual meeting. Since a beneficial owner is not the shareholder of record, you may not vote these shares in person at
