 and most recently postponed to be held on December 19, 2025 (including any further adjournments,
postponements, reschedulings or continuations thereof, the “Proposed Merger Special Meeting”). The Participants have filed
a definitive proxy statement on Schedule 14A (the “Definitive Proxy Statement”) and accompanying GREEN Proxy
Card to be used in connection with any such solicitation of proxies from the Company’s stockholders for the Proposed Merger Special
Meeting. STOCKHOLDERS OF THE COMPANY ARE URGED TO READ THESE MATERIALS (INCLUDING ANY AMENDMENTS OR SUPPLEMENTS THERETO) AND ANY OTHER RELEVANT DOCUMENTS THAT THE PARTICIPANTS HAVE FILED OR WILL FILE WITH THE U.S. SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION (THE “SEC”) BECAUSE THEY CONTAIN OR WILL CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION, INCLUDING ABOUT THE MATTERS TO BE VOTED ON AT THE PROPOSED MERGER SPECIAL MEETING AND ADDITIONAL INFORMATION RELATING TO THE PARTICIPANTS AND THEIR DIRECT OR INDIRECT INTERESTS, BY SECURITY HOLDINGS OR OTHERWISE. The
Definitive Proxy Statement and accompanying GREEN Proxy Card have been furnished to some or all of the Company’s
stockholders and will be, along with other relevant documents, available at no charge on the SEC’s website at https://www.sec.gov/.

The Participants also intend to file a definitive
proxy statement and an accompanying GREEN Proxy Card with the SEC to be used to solicit proxies with respect to removing
members of the Board and any other proposals that may come before a future and yet to be called or otherwise scheduled special meeting
of stockholders (including any adjournments, postponements, reschedulings or continuations thereof, the “Stockholder Meeting”).
The Stockholder Meeting will be separate, distinct and unrelated to the Proposed Merger Special Meeting, and the Participants believe
that the Stockholder Meeting will have no effect on the outcome of the Proposed Merger Special Meeting. The Participants do not believe
that there is any lawful reason that would prevent or prohibit the Participants from calling the Stockholder Meeting, regardless of the
outcome of the stockholder vote at the Proposed Merger Special Meeting, and do not make any representation related to whether the Company
may contest, or otherwise challenge, the Participants’ ability to call the Stockholder Meeting. STOCKHOLDERS OF THE COMPANY ARE URGED TO READ THESE MATERIALS (INCLUDING ANY AMENDMENTS OR SUPPLEMENTS THERETO)
