 have already voted “FOR” the Merger Proposal and the Compensation Proposal (as defined in the proxy statement), your vote remains valid and there is nothing else you need to do.

If you have not voted, we urge you to vote (1) “FOR” the Merger Proposal and (2) “FOR” the Compensation Proposal on the updated WHITE proxy card.

If you voted “Against” the Merger Proposal or the Compensation Proposal, we urge you to re-vote“FOR” both proposals using the instructions you received. Only the last validly executed proxy that you submit will be counted and such proxy will be counted only if it has been received by 11:59 p.m., Eastern Time, on December 18, 2025.

Whether or not you plan to attend the virtual Special Meeting, please sign, date
and return, as promptly as possible, the enclosed updated WHITE proxy card in the accompanying prepaid reply envelope or grant your proxy electronically over the Internet. If you attend the virtual Special Meeting and vote thereat, your vote will
revoke any proxy that you have previously submitted. If you hold your shares of STAAR common stock in “street name,” you should instruct your bank, broker or other nominee how to vote your shares in accordance with the voting
instructions that you will receive from your bank, broker or other nominee. Your bank, broker or other nominee cannot vote on any of the proposals, including the Merger Proposal, without your instructions, and you will not be able to vote your
shares at the Special Meeting without a legal proxy. If you sign, date and mail your updated WHITE proxy card without indicating how you wish to vote, your proxy will be counted as a vote “FOR” the Merger Proposal and
“FOR” the Compensation Proposal.

If you have any questions concerning the Merger Agreement, the Merger, the Special
Meeting, the proxy statement or the accompanying proxy supplement, would like additional copies of the proxy statement or any proxy supplement or need help voting your shares of STAAR common stock, please contact STAAR’s proxy solicitor:
