The Proposed Amendments are described in detail under “Item 4: Company Proposal to Approve the Adoption of an Amendment to the Charter to Add Officer Exculpation” and “Item 5: Company Proposal to Approve the Implementation of Miscellaneous Amendments to the Charter” of the Company’s definitive proxy statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 7, 2026 (the “2026 Proxy Statement”). The description of the Proposed Amendments is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the certificate of incorporation, as amended by the Proposed Amendments (the “Restated Charter”), which is filed as Exhibit 3.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference. The Restated Charter became effective upon its filing with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on May 21, 2026.
