PROPOSAL 3:

RATIFICATION OF THE APPOINTMENT OF DELOITTE & TOUCHE LLP
AS INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM</div>

The Audit Committee, comprised of independent members of the Board (the “Audit Committee”), has appointed Deloitte as our independent registered public accounting firm with respect to our operations for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025. Representatives of Deloitte are expected to be present at the Annual Meeting and will have the opportunity to make a statement if they desire to do so and will answer appropriate questions. Stockholder ratification of the appointment of Deloitte as our independent registered public accounting firm is not required by our bylaws or otherwise. However, the Board is submitting the appointment of Deloitte to the common stockholders for ratification as a matter of good corporate governance. If the common stockholders fail to ratify the appointment, the Audit Committee may reconsider whether to retain Deloitte. Even if the appointment is ratified, the Audit Committee may in its discretion select a different independent registered public accounting firm at any time during the year if it determines that such a change would be in the best interests of the Company.

We are asking that you ratify the appointment of Deloitte, although your ratification is not required. If stockholders do

not ratify the appointment
