The full text of the amended plan is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to the filing. At the same meeting, Class I directors Leslie Goldman Tepper and Blake E.

Why It Matters

• The 5,000,000‑share increase expands the pool available for employee, director and consultant equity awards, which can help recruit and retain talent but could also lead to future dilution for existing shareholders as awards are granted and exercised.
• Re-election of the two Class I directors maintains board continuity through 2029.
• Ratifying Grant Thornton LLP ensures continuity in the company’s audited financial reporting for 2026.
• Investors should review the amended 2025 Equity Incentive Plan (Exhibit 10.1) for details on award types, vesting, and share‑count mechanics to assess potential dilution and impact on shareholder value.
