 this proposal will be determined by a plurality vote, any shares not voted FOR a particular nominee, whether as a result of choosing to WITHHOLD authority to vote or a broker non-vote, will have no effect on the outcome of the election. If any nominee should be unavailable for election as a result of an unexpected occurrence, shares will be voted for the election of such substitute nominee as the Board may propose. Each person nominated for election has agreed to serve if elected, and the Board has no reason to believe that any nominee will be unable to serve.

<div align='center'>PROPOSAL 2

ADVISORY VOTE ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION</div>

Executive compensation is an important matter for our stockholders. The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act requires that we provide you with the opportunity to vote to approve, on a non-binding advisory basis, the compensation of our Named Executive Officer, or NEO, as disclosed in this Proxy Statement in accordance with the compensation disclosure rules of the SEC (sometimes referred to as “Say-on-Pay”).

In determining the compensation of our executive officer, the main goal of the Compensation Committee is to align the interests of our executive officer with the interests of our stockholders. The Compensation Committee believes in a “pay-for-performance” philosophy for our NEO, and that a substantial portion of the overall compensation package for our executive officer should be variable and tied to the achievement of the objectives set by our board of directors each year.

The Compensation Committee and the Board believe that our compensation design and practices are effective in implementing our executive compensation philosophy and objectives.

We are required to submit a proposal to stockholders for an advisory vote to approve the compensation of our NEO pursuant to Section 14A of the Exchange Act. This vote, commonly known as a “say-on-pay” vote, gives our stockholders the opportunity to express their views on the compensation of our NEO. This vote is not intended to address any specific item of compensation, but rather the overall compensation of our NEO and the compensation principles, policies and practices described in this proxy statement. At our 2022 annual meeting of stockholders, our stockholders voted to approve, and we have adopted, holding an advisory vote on the compensation of the NEOs every three years
