 Board will consider nominees submitted by our stockholders, subject to the same factors that are brought to bear when it considers nominees referred by other sources and the rights granted to JPE pursuant to the Certificate of Incorporation, as described above. Our stockholders will be permitted to nominate candidates for election as directors by following the procedures set forth in our amended and restated bylaws, which are summarized below. We did not receive any director nominees from our stockholders for the 2025 Annual Meeting. The advance notice provisions of our bylaws require that a stockholder who wishes to nominate an individual for election as a director at our annual meeting must give us advance written notice. The notice must be delivered to or mailed and received by the secretary of our company not less than 90 days, and not more than 120 days, prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting; provided, however, that in the event that the date of such annual meeting is more than 30 days before or more than 60 days after such anniversary date, notice by the stockholder must be delivered not less than 90 days, and not more than 120 days, prior to the date of such annual meeting. As more specifically provided in our bylaws, any nomination must include, among other things: (i) the nominator’s name and address and the number of shares of each class of our capital stock that the nominator owns, (ii) the name and address of any person with whom the nominator is acting in concert and the number of shares of each class of our capital stock that any such person owns, and (iii) the information with respect to each such proposed director nominee that would be required to be provided in a proxy statement prepared in accordance with applicable SEC rules. In addition, the proxy access provisions of our bylaws permit a stockholder, or a group of up to 20 stockholders, that has continuously owned for three years at least 3% of our outstanding common stock, to nominate and include in the annual meeting proxy materials up to the greater of two directors or 20% of the number of directors to be elected at the annual meeting, provided that the stockholder(s) and the nominee(s) satisfy the requirements specified in our bylaws. Stockholder requests to include stockholder-nominated directors in the company’s proxy materials for our 2026 Annual Meeting of stockholders must be received by the company no earlier than January 12, 2026, and no later than February 11, 202
