| | As described in the Original Schedule 13D, the Reporting Persons originally acquired the shares in the Issuer because they believed the Shares were materially undervalued and represented an attractive investment opportunity. As a result of the foregoing and as disclosed in detail in Item 4 of the Original Schedule 13D, the Reporting Persons considered taking one or more actions described in subjections (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D, and intended to seek to replace a majority of the current members of the Board of the Issuer with candidates that were committed to an expedited return of shareholders' capital through a sale of the Issuer by running a competing proxy statement at the Issuer's 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.
Subsequent to the filing of the Original Schedule 13D and as described in detail in Amendment No. 1, the Reporting Persons engaged in discussions with the Issuer, and the parties have agreed to resolve their differences with respect to this matter by entering into a Cooperation Agreement dated June 24, 2025 (the "Cooperation Agreement").

The Reporting Persons intend to review their investment in the Issuer on a continuing basis, and depending on various factors, may in the future take such actions with respect to their investment in the Issuer as they deem appropriate, subject to compliance with the terms of the Cooperation Agreement. |
