 effect the 1:7 Reverse Stock Split. The 1:7 Reverse Stock Split is a consolidation of the Common Stock by a ratio of 1:7.

If the 1:7 Reverse Stock Split is approved by our stockholders, then the Company, in its discretion, may effect the 1:7 Reverse Stock Split with a ratio of 1:7 at any time prior to September 23, 2026. Our Board believes that a 1:7 Reverse Stock Split with a ratio of 1:7 is designed to maximize the anticipated benefits for the Company and its stockholders. In determining the 1:7 ratio of the 1:7 Reverse Stock Split, our Board considered, among other things, factors such as:

•

the historical trading price and trading volume of our Common Stock;

•

the then prevailing trading price and trading volume of our Common Stock and the anticipated impact of the 1:7 Reverse Stock Split on the trading market for our Common Stock;

•

our ability to have our Common Stock remain listed on Nasdaq, including the maintenance of the required number of shares of Common Stock registered with Nasdaq;

•

the anticipated impact of the 1:7 Reverse Stock Split on our ability to raise additional financing;

•

the potential for downward pressure on the bid price of the Common Stock caused by redemptions of Preferred Stock; and

•

prevailing general market and economic conditions.

If the 1:7 Reverse Stock Split is approved by our stockholders and the Company, in its sole discretion, determines to effect the 1:7 Reverse Stock Split, we will issue a press release announcing the 1:7 Effective Date (as defined below) of the 1:7 Reverse Stock Split and will file the Articles of Amendment, substantially in the form attached hereto as Appendix B (the “

#### Proposed 1:7 Amendment
”), to effect the 1:7 Reverse Stock Split. The 1:7 Reverse Stock Split will become effective upon the effective time stated in the Articles of Amendment (the “

#### 1:7 Effective Date
”), after the Articles of Amendment are accepted for record by the Maryland SDAT. The 1:7 Effective Date shall be no later than September 23, 2026.

If each of Proposal 1, Proposal 2, and Proposal 3 are approved at the Special Meeting, the Company may elect, in its sole discretion, to implement only one of the approved proposals at any time prior to September 23,
