RATIFICATION OF APPOINTMENT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM The Audit Committee has selected EY as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025, and has further recommended that the Board submit the appointment of its independent registered public accounting firm for ratification by the stockholders at the Annual Meeting. Representatives of EY are expected to be present at the Annual Meeting. They will have an opportunity to make a statement if they so desire and will be available to respond to appropriate questions. Neither the Company’s Bylaws nor other governing documents or law require stockholder ratification of the appointment of EY as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. However, the audit committee is submitting the appointment of EY to the stockholders for ratification as a matter of good corporate practice. If the stockholders fail to ratify the appointment, the Audit Committee will reconsider whether or not to retain EY. Even if the appointment is ratified, the Audit Committee in its discretion may direct the appointment of different independent auditors at any time during the year if they determine that such a change would be in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders. EY has served as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm since June 14, 2022. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTANT FEES AND SERVICES The following table represents aggregate fees billed to the Company for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2024, and December 31, 2023, by EY, the Company’s principal accountant.
