 Market pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (the “Bid Price Requirement”). The notification received has no immediate effect on the Company’s Nasdaq listing. In accordance with Nasdaq rules, the Company has been provided an initial period of 180 calendar days, or until September 24, 2025 (the “Compliance Date”), to regain compliance with the Bid Price Requirement.
