Material Changes and Events

  • Quorum Failure: The Special Meeting reconvened on February 17, 2023, failed to achieve a quorum. Although stockholders holding sufficient shares attempted to vote electronically, the voting system had already closed per standard practice, preventing their votes from being counted.
  • Adjournment: Due to the lack of a quorum, the meeting was adjourned again without any business being conducted.
  • Shareholder Count: As of the record date (January 9, 2023), there were 67,690,914 shares of Common Stock outstanding.

Management has communicated with stockholders holding sufficient shares to constitute a quorum and believes these stockholders intend to vote at the next meeting. The Company will continue to solicit votes during the adjournment period. No changes have been made to the proposal to be voted on.
