Note on Proposed Reverse Stock Split

The information set forth in this Proxy Statement does not reflect adjustments for the Company’s proposed reverse stock split of its Common Stock, as disclosed in the Company’s definitive proxy statement filed with the SEC on December 26, 2024 in connection with the Company’s 2024 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting Proxy Statement”). The reverse stock split has been approved by the Company’s stockholders but has not yet been implemented. Our Board has authority to effect a reverse stock split at a ratio ranging from any whole number between 1-for-10 and 1-for-25. In the event the reverse stock split becomes effective, all share and CDI amounts, including shares outstanding or reserved for issuance under outstanding options, warrants and other derivative securities included in this Proxy Statement, (but not the number of authorized shares of Common Stock) and per share data will be proportionately adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split. See Proposal Seven “Approval of amendments to our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation to effect a reverse stock split” contained in the Annual Meeting Proxy Statement for more information.
