Forward-Looking Statements

This report contains forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements include those that express a belief, expectation, or intention, as well as those that are not statements of historical fact. Forward-looking statements contained in this report include information regarding the proposed Merger and expected closing date of the Merger. The forward-looking statements in this report speak only as of the date of this report. We undertake no obligation to update these statements unless required by law, and we caution you not to place undue reliance on them. Forward-looking statements are not assurances of future performance and involve risks and uncertainties. We have based these forward-looking statements on our current expectations and assumptions about future events. Forecasts, goals, milestones, and expectations inherently involve increased risks with respect to predictability and actual results may differ materially from current expectations. While our management considers these expectations and assumptions to be reasonable, they are inherently subject to significant business, economic, competitive, regulatory, technological, environmental, political, and other risks, contingencies and uncertainties, which are difficult to predict and many of

which are beyond our control. These risks, contingencies, and uncertainties and other important factors are described in the “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” sections of the prospectus contained in our Registration Statement on Form S-1, filed on May 20, 2026, as amended (No. 333-296070). New risks emerge from time to time, some risks are inherently unknown to us, and it is not possible for our management to predict all such risks. All forward-looking statements in this report are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements in this paragraph.
