 be voted, one of two things can happen, depending on the type of proposal. Under stock exchange rules, brokers have discretionary power to vote your shares with respect to “routine” matters, but they do not have discretionary power to vote your shares on “non-routine” matters. Uninstructed brokers have discretionary voting power as to ratification of Deloitte as our independent registered public accountants (Item 2), which is considered a routine matter. Uninstructed brokers do not have discretionary voting power as to election of the three nominees for director (Item 1), which is considered a non-routine matter. A bank or brokerage firm may not vote your shares with respect to the non-routine matters if you have not provided instructions. This is called a “broker non-vote.” Broker non-votes will be counted towards the presence of a quorum but will not be counted as shares entitled to vote on Proposal 1. THEREFORE, THE COMPANY URGES YOU TO SIGN, DATE AND RETURN THE ENCLOSED PROXY CARD. 1

At the upcoming Annual Meeting, one class will stand for election for the term ending at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders following Fiscal Year 2028. The terms of the other two classes of continuing directors expire at the Annual Meetings of Stockholders after fiscal year end 2026 and 2027, respectively. Unless otherwise specified, shares represented by the enclosed proxy will be voted for the election of Richard L. Soloway, Kevin S. Buchel and David Paterson, currently directors, who have been recommended for nomination by the Nominating Committee of the Board of Directors and nominated by the Board of Directors for reelection as a director to serve until the Annual Meeting of Stockholders after fiscal year end 2028 and until his successor is elected and qualified. Mr. Soloway, Mr. Buchel and Mr. Paterson, have consented to serve if reelected. In the event that any nominee becomes unable or unwilling to serve as a director, discretionary authority may be exercised by the proxies to vote for the election of an alternate nominee of the Board of Directors. The names of, and certain information concerning, the nominees and the continuing directors are set forth below. Also set forth below is a description of the experience, qualifications, attributes or skills that caused the Nominating Committee and Board of Directors to determine that the person should serve as one of
