The following are the final voting results on proposals considered and voted upon at the Special Meeting, all of which are described in the Company's definitive proxy statement (the "Proxy Statement") filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on March 8, 2024 and the supplement to the Proxy Statement filed by the Company with the SEC on April 5, 2024.

Each of the proposals was approved by the requisite vote of the Company's shareholders.

The Company's shareholders approved the Merger Proposal.

Proposal 2 - To approve, by a non-binding, advisory vote, compensation that will or may become payable by the Company to its named executive officers in connection with the merger of Merger Sub with and into the Company (the "Merger") (the "Executive Compensation Proposal").

The Company's shareholders approved the Executive Compensation Proposal.

Proposal 3 - To adjourn the Special Meeting to a later date or dates, if necessary or appropriate, including to solicit additional proxies if there are insufficient votes to adopt the Merger Agreement at the time of the Special Meeting (the "Adjournment Proposal").
