 shares held for a beneficial owner on non-routine matters. Because broker non-votes are not counted as “votes cast,” they would have no effect on the outcome of those proposals. Broker non-votes count for purposes of determining whether a quorum is present. IF I DISSENT ON ANY MATTER TO BE VOTED ON, WHAT ARE MY RIGHTS? None of Delaware law, our Certificate of Incorporation, or our Bylaws, provides for appraisal or other similar rights for dissenting stockholders in connection with any of the proposals to be voted upon at the Annual Meeting. Accordingly, our stockholders will have no right to dissent and obtain payment for their shares. WHERE CAN I FIND THE VOTING RESULTS OF THE 2025 ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS? We plan to announce preliminary voting results at the Annual Meeting and we will report the final results in a Current Report on Form 8-K, which we intend to file with the SEC shortly after the Annual Meeting. 7

PROPOSALS TO BE VOTED ON PROPOSAL 1: ELECTION OF CLASS I DIRECTORS Our by-laws permit our Board to determine the total number of directors constituting the Board. Our Board is currently comprised of nine (9) directors divided into three classes each with three-year terms. At each annual meeting of stockholders, the successor (which may include the incumbent) to each director whose term then expires will be elected to serve from the time of election and qualification until the third annual meeting of stockholders following such election or, if earlier, such director’s death, resignation or removal, whichever is earliest to occur. The current Class I Directors are Jon Cohen, Erez Shachar and Madhu Pawar; the current Class II Directors are Curtis Warfield, Jacqueline Yeaney and Michael Hansen; and the current Class III Directors are Douglas Braunstein, Swati Abbott, and Liat Ben-Zur. At the Annual Meeting, only the three (3) Class I Directors are to be elected to hold office until the Annual Meeting of Stockholders to be held in 2028 and until such director’s successor is elected and qualified or until such director’s earlier death, resignation or removal. The Class II and Class III directors will be up for reelection at the Annual Meetings of Stockholders to be held in 2026 and 2027 respectively. If you submit a proxy but do not indicate any voting instructions, the persons named as proxies will vote the shares of Common Stock represented by the proxy
