HOUSEHOLDING OF PROXY MATERIALS The SEC has adopted rules that permit companies and intermediaries (e.g., brokers) to satisfy the delivery requirements for proxy statements and annual reports with respect to two or more stockholders sharing the same address by delivering a single proxy statement addressed to those stockholders. This process, which is commonly referred to as “householding,” potentially means extra convenience for stockholders and cost savings for companies. If one set of materials is sent to your household and you would prefer to receive additional sets, or if more than one set is sent to your household and you would prefer to receive one sent, please notify your broker, direct your written request to B. Riley Financial, Inc., c/o Corporate Secretary, 11100 Santa Monica Boulevard, Suite 800, Los Angeles, California 90025 or call Investor Relations at (310) 966 -1444. STOCKHOLDER PROPOSALS Pursuant to Rule 14a -8under the Exchange Act, stockholders may present proper proposals for inclusion in our proxy statement and for consideration at our next annual meeting of stockholders. To be eligible for inclusion in our 2026 proxy statement, a stockholder’s proposal must be received by us no later than June 22, 2026, unless the date of our 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders is more than 30 days before or after December 1, 2026 (the one -yearanniversary date of the Annual Meeting), in which case such proposals must be received by the Company a reasonable time before the Company begins to print and send applicable proxy materials. In addition, stockholder proposals must otherwise comply with Rule 14a -8under the Exchange Act. Pursuant to the terms of our Bylaws, stockholders wishing to submit proposals or director nominations, including those that are not to be included in such proxy statement and proxy, must provide timely notice in writing
