On April 4, 2025, the Board of Directors of the Company voted unanimously to appoint Eric Maire to the Board as an Independent Director. Mr. Maire has extensive experience in the financial sector, and the Company believes his appointment will support the Company's strategic plan for deployment of its financial technology platform.

Mr. Maire will serve an initial term that will expire at the Company's 2026 Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the "Annual Meeting") and will continue until his successor has been elected and qualified, subject to earlier death, resignation, disqualification, or removal. Mr. Maire will stand for reelection at the Annual Meeting.

There are no arrangements or understandings between Mr. Maire and any other persons pursuant to which he was selected as a director, no family relationships between Mr. Maire and any of the Company's directors or other executive officers, and no transaction in which he has an interest that would require disclosure under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.
