 E. Zeifman. Each of these nominees has agreed to stand for reelection at the Annual Meeting. Our management has no reason to believe that any nominee will be unable to serve. If elected at the Annual Meeting, each of these nominees would serve until the annual meeting of stockholders to be held in 2028 and until a successor has been duly elected and qualified, or until the director’s earlier death, resignation, or removal. For details regarding the qualifications and the specific experiences, qualifications, and skills of each of our director nominees, see “Board of Directors—Our Board of Directors” on page 8. The Company representatives named in the WHITEuniversal proxy card intend to vote for the election of each of the director nominees above, unless you indicate on your proxy that your vote should be withheld from any or all of the nominees. If any nominee becomes unavailable for election as a result of an unexpected occurrence, shares that would have been voted for that nominee will instead be voted for the election of a substitute nominee proposed by our Board of Directors. A majority of the Board recommends using the enclosed WHITEuniversal proxy card to vote “FOR” each of the Board’s candidates for director. As detailed earlier, the Dissident Group has informed the Company it intends to seek your proxy to vote in favor of the Dissident Group’s nominees. Accordingly, you may receive proxy solicitation materials from the Dissident Group, including proxy statements and NON-WHITE proxy cards. A majority of the Board recommends that you disregard them. The Board does NOT endorse any of the nominees proposed by the Dissident Group, and the presence of the Dissident Group’s nominees on the enclosed WHITEuniversal proxy card is NOT an approval of or comment on the fitness, character, suitability, or other qualifications of the Dissident Group’s nominees. The Board strongly urges you to NOT sign or return any NON-WHITE proxy card sent to you by, or on behalf of, the Dissident Group. If you have previously submitted a NON-WHITE proxy card sent to you by, or on behalf of, the Dissident Group, you can revoke that proxy and vote for your Board’s candidates and on the other matters to be voted on at the Annual Meeting by using the enclosed WHITEuniversal proxy card or submitting a proxy to vote by Internet by following the instructions specified on the WHITEuniversal proxy card. OUR BOARD URGES YOU TO VOTE ONLY ON THE WHITEUNIVERSAL PROXY CARD FOR OUR BOARD’S PROPOSED CANDIDATES (TIMOTHY J. DUNN
