PROPOSAL NO. 2
RATIFICATION OF APPOINTMENT OF
INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM</div>

Appointment of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The audit committee of the Board (the “Audit Committee”) appoints our independent registered public accounting firm. In this regard, the Audit Committee evaluates the qualifications, performance and independence of our independent registered public accounting firm and determines whether to re-engage our current firm. As part of its evaluation, the Audit Committee considers, among other factors, the quality and efficiency of the services provided by the firm, including the performance, technical expertise, industry knowledge and experience of the lead audit partner and the audit team assigned to our account; the overall strength and reputation of the firm; the firm’s global capabilities relative to our business; and the firm’s knowledge of our operations. WithumSmith+Brown, PC (“Withum”) has served as our independent registered public accounting firm since 2019. Neither the accounting firm nor any of its members has any direct or indirect financial interest in or any connection with us in any capacity other than as our auditors and providing audit and permissible non-audit related services. Upon consideration of these and other factors, the Audit Committee has appointed Withum to serve as our independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2025.

Although ratification is not required by our Bylaws or otherwise, the Board is submitting the selection of Withum to our stockholders for ratification because we value our stockholders’ views on the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm and it is a good corporate governance practice. If our stockholders do not ratify the selection, it will be considered as notice to the Board and the Audit Committee to consider the selection of a different firm. Even if the selection is ratified, the Audit Committee, in its discretion, may 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 and its stockholders.

Representatives of Withum are expected to attend the Annual Meeting, will have an opportunity to make a statement if they wish to do so and will be available to respond to appropriate questions from stockholders.

#### Audit, Audit-Related, Tax and All Other Fees
The table below sets forth the aggregate fees billed by Withum in fiscal years 2023 and 2024.
