 to serve for three-year terms until the 2028 annual meeting and until their successors are elected. The remaining five directors are divided into three Class I directors and two Class II directors, whose terms expire in 2026 and 2027, respectively. Votes at the 2025 annual meeting may not be cast for a greater number of director nominees than two.

Information regarding the business experience of each nominee and each continuing director is provided below. There are no family relationships among our executive officers and directors.

If you sign your proxy or voting instruction card but do not give instructions for the voting of directors, your shares will be voted “FOR” the two persons recommended by the Board. If you wish to give specific instructions for the voting of directors, you may do so by indicating your instructions on your proxy card or voting instruction card.

The two persons receiving the highest number of “FOR” votes represented by shares of Ardmore’s common stock, present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to be voted at the annual meeting, will be elected.

The Board expects that all of the nominees will be available to serve as directors. If for any unforeseen reason any of the Board’s nominees is not available as a candidate for director, the proxyholders, Curtis McWilliams, James Watlington and Debra Stevens, will vote your proxy for such other candidate or candidates as may be nominated by the Board, unless the Board chooses to reduce the number of directors serving on the Board.
