PROPOSAL 4: RATIFICATION OF APPOINTMENT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM FOR YEAR ENDING DECEMBER 31, 2025

Our Board of Directors has ratified the decision of the Audit and Finance Committee to appoint Deloitte to serve as the independent registered public accounting firm to audit our financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2025. Although stockholder approval of this appointment is not required, we intend to seek stockholder approval of our registered public accounting firm annually. No determination has been made as to what action the Audit and Finance Committee and the Board of Directors would take if our stockholders fail to ratify the appointment. Even if the appointment is ratified, the Audit and Finance Committee retains discretion to appoint a new independent registered public accounting firm at any time if the Audit and Finance Committee concludes such a change would be in our best interests. We expect that representatives of Deloitte will be present at the Annual Meeting and will have an opportunity to make a statement if they so desire and to respond to appropriate questions.

For the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, we paid Deloitte fees, including expenses and taxes, totaling $3,339,919 and $2,955,824, respectively, which are categorized below.
