Inspector of Voting

It is anticipated that representatives of Equiniti Trust Company will tabulate the votes and act as inspector of election at the Annual Meeting.

Stockholders Entitled to Vote at the Meeting

A complete list of stockholders entitled to vote at the annual meeting will be available for examination at our principal executive offices (575 N. Dairy Ashford, Suite 210, Houston, Texas 77079), for any purpose germane to the annual meeting, during ordinary business hours, for a period of ten days prior to the annual meeting. Stockholders may also vote prior to the meeting at www.iproxydirect.com/PED. You will need your Control ID in order to access the virtual annual meeting.

Voting Instructions

Your vote is very important. Whether or not you plan to attend the annual meeting, we encourage you to read this proxy statement and submit your proxy or voting instructions as soon as possible. For specific instructions on how to vote your shares, please refer to the instructions on the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials you received in the mail, or, if you requested to receive printed proxy materials, your enclosed proxy card.

Confidential Voting

Independent inspectors count the votes. Your individual vote is kept confidential from us unless special circumstances exist. For example, a copy of your proxy card will be sent to us if you write comments on the card, as necessary to meet applicable legal requirements, or to assert or defend claims for or against the Company.

Stockholder of Record and Shares Held in Brokerage Accounts

If on the record date your shares were registered in your name with our transfer agent, then you are a stockholder of record and you may vote in person at the meeting, by proxy or by any other means supported by us. If on the record date your shares were held in an account at a brokerage firm, bank, dealer, or other similar organization, then you are the beneficial owner of shares held in “street name” and the proxy statement is required to be forwarded to you by that organization. The organization holding your account is considered the stockholder of record for purposes of voting at the annual meeting. As a beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your broker or other agent on how to vote the shares in your account. You are also invited to attend the virtual annual meeting. However, since you are not the stockholder of record, you may
