, we urge you to vote your shares in advance of the Annual Meeting electronically through the internet, over the telephone or by completing and returning a printed proxy card that you may request or that we may elect to deliver at a later time to ensure your vote is counted. Beneficial Owner: Shares Registered in the Name of a Broker or Bank If on the Record Date, your shares were held, not in your name, but rather in an account at a brokerage firm, bank or other similar organization, then you are the beneficial owner of shares held in “street name” and the Notice is being forwarded to you by that organization. The organization holding your account is considered to be the stockholder of record for purposes of voting at the Annual Meeting. As a beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your broker, bank or other agent regarding how to vote the shares in your account. You are also invited to attend the Annual Meeting. However, since you are not the stockholder of record, you may not vote your shares at the Annual Meeting even if you participate virtually, unless you request and obtain a valid proxy from your broker, bank or other agent. What am I voting on? There are three matters scheduled for a vote: • Election of three (3) Class II directors, Mary Ann Gray, Ph.D., Ran Nussbaum and Alpna Seth, Ph.D., each to hold office until the 2028 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (Proposal 1); • Ratification of the selection of Deloitte & Touche LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025 (Proposal 2); and • Advisory approval of the compensation of our named executive officers (“ NEOs ”), as disclosed in this Proxy Statement in accordance with SEC rules (Proposal 3). What if another matter is properly brought before the Annual Meeting? The Board knows of no other matters that will be presented for consideration at the Annual Meeting. If any other matters are properly brought before the Annual Meeting, it is the intention of the persons named in the accompanying proxy to vote on those matters in accordance with their best judgment. How can I vote? • With regard to Proposal 1, you may either vote “FOR” all the proposed nominees to the Board or you may “WITHHOLD” your vote for any nominee you specify. • With regard to Proposal 2, you may vote “FOR” or “AGAINST” or “ABSTAIN” from voting. • With regard to Proposal 3,
