A board member has agreed to retire from the board. We will leverage the collaborative process we previously used to select another board member. The Company will select the new board member from the candidates we identify no later than immediately following the 2022 Shareholder Meeting.

One new Board member will be named to the Compensation Committee and the other new Board member will be named to the Audit or Compensation Committee.

The Company has committed to having no more than four board members prior to the 2022 Shareholder meeting.

The additional steps involved in the Delaware Chancery Action include at least an Injunction Hearing and a Trial.

Absent unusual circumstances, the Company may not make any shareholder proposals to increase the number of shares of the Company until after the 2022 Shareholder Meeting.

The Company anticipated spending $300,000 in incremental expenses relating to the Proxy Contest based on the information available to it at the time of that estimate. Reaching a cooperation agreement likely reduced total actual Company expenses had the Proxy Contest continued to conclusion.

If either I or the Company violates the terms of our Cooperation Agreement, the other party has the right to request the specific performance of its provisions in a court of law.
