 directors, unless prior to the vote on the election of directors a shareholder has validly given notice of its intent to cumulate votes, in which case you may allocate votes (six per share of Common Stock held) among all director nominees. In the absence of cumulative voting, only votes “FOR” or “WITHHELD” are counted in determining whether a plurality has been cast in favor of a director. Abstentions and broker “non-votes,” if any, will have no effect on this proposal. Brokerage firms, banks, broker-dealers, and other nominees holding shares for holders who have not given specific voting instructions are not permitted to vote in their discretion with respect to Proposal No. 1. If you do not instruct your broker how to vote, your broker may not vote with respect to this proposal, and these votes will be counted as broker “non-votes,” as is described in “What happens if I do not give specific voting instructions?” below.

You may vote “FOR” or “AGAINST” with respect to the appointment of Grant Thornton LLP as the independent auditors for the Company for the year ending December 31, 2025. Abstentions will have the same effect as voting against this proposal. Because the ratification of auditors is considered a “routine” matter for which brokers may vote in the absence of shareholder direction, there will not be any broker “non-votes” on this proposal.

With respect to Proposal No. 3 of this Proxy Statement, the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares of Common Stock present or represented and entitled to vote at the
