Required Vote of Stockholders

The approval of the Incentive Plan Proposal requires that a quorum exist and that the number of votes cast in favor of approval of the Incentive Plan Proposal exceeds the number of votes cast against approval of the Incentive Plan Proposal. Abstentions are not considered votes cast and will therefore have no effect on the Incentive Plan Proposal. Brokers are not permitted to vote shares held for a customer on “non-routine” matters (such as the Equity Incentive Plan Proposal) without specific instructions from the customer. Therefore, broker non-votes are not considered votes cast and will also have no effect on the outcome of the Incentive Plan Proposal.

Interests of Directors and Executive Officers

Our directors and executive officers have no substantial interests, directly or indirectly, in the matters set forth in this proposal except to the extent of their ownership of shares of our Common Stock.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT OUR STOCKHOLDERS VOTE “FOR” PROPOSAL 2 TO APPROVE OF THE 2025 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN AND THE FORM, TERMS AND PROVISIONS.

<div align='center'>PROPOSAL 3:

RATIFICATION OF THE SELECTION OF THE INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM</div>

Our Audit Committee has selected JP CENTURION & PARTNERS PLT as our independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2025, and has further directed that we submit the selection of JP CENTURION & PARTNERS PLT for ratification by our stockholders at the Annual Meeting.

We are not required to submit the selection of our independent registered public accounting firm for stockholder approval but are submitting our selection of JP CENTURION & PARTNERS PLT for stockholder ratification as a matter of good corporate governance. If the stockholders do not ratify this selection, the Audit Committee will reconsider its selection of JP CENTURION & PARTNERS PLT. Even if the selection is ratified, our Audit Committee may direct the appointment of a different independent registered public accounting firm at any time during the year if the Audit Committee determines that the change would be in our best interests.

Representatives of JP CENTURION & PARTNERS PLT are expected to be present by video at the Annual Meeting, will have the opportunity to make a statement if they desire to do so, and are
