Elect five directors; Ratify appointment of Frazier & Deeter as independent registered public accounting firm for fiscal year ending September 30, 2026; Transact other business as may properly come before the meeting.
Elect five directors to the Board for one-year terms.
Ratify the Audit Committee’s appointment of Frazier & Deeter, LLC as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2026.
This proposal asks shareholders to ratify the Audit Committee’s selection of Frazier & Deeter as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2026. Management is seeking shareholder approval as a governance matter and to provide ratification of the committee’s selection, though shareholder approval is not required. The Audit Committee, responsible for auditor selection, supports the appointment and believes ratification is good governance; the Board unanimously recommends a FOR vote. The proposal’s context includes disclosure of audit and non-audit fees for 2025 and 2024, and the committee’s oversight role. If shareholders do not ratify, the Audit Committee may reconsider but is not obligated to. Approval requires a majority of shares present and abstentions count as a vote against.
