(the “Company”) has authorized, and the Company has entered into, a written trading plan (10b5-1 Plan) under Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”). Adopting a trading plan that satisfies the conditions of Rule 10b5-1 allows a company to repurchase its shares at times when it might otherwise be prevented from doing so due to self-imposed trading black-outs or pursuant to insider trading laws. Purchases under the Company’s 10b5-1 Plan are for the following periods: (1) beginning on January 2, 2026 until two trading days after the Company issues a press release announcing its financial results for the year ended December 31, 2025 and (2) beginning on April 1, 2026 until two trading days after the Company issues a press release announcing its financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2026. Under the 10b5-1 Plan, the Company’s third party broker may purchase up to 1,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, subject to certain price, market, volume and timing constraints, in accordance with the terms of the plan and subject to Rule 10b5-1 and Rule 10b-18 under the Exchange Act.
