A total of 1,287,547 shares were present in person or represented by proxy, constituting approximately 51.1% of the shares outstanding and entitled to vote and therefore representing a quorum.

The proposals submitted to the stockholders at the Special Meeting are described in detail in the Company’s definitive proxy statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on September 14, 2026. The final voting results for Proposal Nos. 1, 3, 4 and 5 are set forth below. As described below, the Special Meeting was adjourned with respect to Proposal No. 2 only.
