**Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.**

On June 9, 2026, pursuant to the recommendation of the Nominating and Governance Committee, the Company's Board of Trustees (the "Board") increased its size from seven to eight members and elected Elena B. Poptodorova as an Independent Trustee with a term to expire at the Company's 2027 annual meeting of shareholders to fill the vacancy created thereby. The Board appointed Ms. Poptodorova to serve on the Audit, Compensation and Nominating and Governance Committees.

Ms. Poptodorova, age 74, has served as vice president and director for Euro-Atlantic affairs of the Atlantic Club of Bulgaria since 2017 and served as vice president of the Atlantic Treaty Association from 2017 to 2020 and is currently a member of its Governing Board. Ms. Poptodorova has also served as a trustee of Office Properties Income Trust since 2017, and she previously served as a director of TravelCenters of America Inc. from 2020 until its acquisition by BP Products North America Inc. in May 2023. Ms. Poptodorova served as director of the Shapiro-Silverberg AJC Central Europe Office from October 2016 to February 2017. Ms. Poptodorova was the ambassador extraordinary and plenipotentiary of the Republic of Bulgaria to the United States from 2010 to 2016 and from 2002 to 2008. During this time, she facilitated foreign investments in Bulgaria's information technology sector and assisted the development of transatlantic business association to support investment ventures. From 2009 to 2010, Ms. Poptodorova was the director of the Security Policy Directorate at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and from 2008 to 2009, she served as the ambassador-at-large for the Black Sea Region. From 2001 to 2002, Ms. Poptodorova served as a spokesperson of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and director of the Human Rights and International Humanitarian Organizations Directorate. Ms. Poptodorova was a national legislator and Member of Parliament in the Bulgarian Parliament from 1990 to 2001, where she served on a variety of committees, including the national security, human rights, media and agriculture committees. During her service as a Member of Parliament, Ms. Poptodorova also served as a member of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe in Strasbourg from 1997 to 2001. Ms. Poptodorova worked extensively on communal property and industrial property matters with the local government of her electoral district. In addition to her extensive government service, Ms. Poptodorova has served as a board member of the European Institute, the Executive Council on Diplomacy, the Women's Foreign Policy Group and American University in Bulgaria, and is a current board member of the U.S.-Bulgarian Chamber in America, the American Foundation for Bulgaria and the Institute for Cultural Diplomacy in Germany.

The Board concluded that Ms. Poptodorova is qualified to serve as an Independent Trustee in accordance with the requirements of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC, the Securities and Exchange Commission and our governing documents. For her service as an Independent Trustee, Ms. Poptodorova will be entitled to the compensation we generally provide to Independent Trustees. There is no arrangement or understanding between Ms. Poptodorova and any other person pursuant to which Ms. Poptodorova was selected as a Trustee. There are no transactions, relationships or agreements between Ms. Poptodorova and us that would require disclosure pursuant to Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Ms. Poptodorova does not have a family relationship with any member of the Board or any of our executive officers.

In connection with her election as an Independent Trustee, we entered into an indemnification agreement with Ms. Poptodorova, which agreement is on substantially the same terms as the indemnification agreements we have entered with our other Trustees and executive officers. We have previously filed a form of indemnification agreement as Exhibit 10.2 to our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2023, which form is incorporated herein by reference.
