Pursuant to the Agreement, sales of the Common Stock, if any, will be made under the Company’s effective Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-289988), previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 2, 2025, and the prospectus supplement relating to this offering, filed on November 28, 2025, by any method that is deemed to be an “at the market offering” as defined in Rule 415(a)(4) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, including privately negotiated and block transactions. The Sales Agents will use commercially reasonable efforts to sell the Common Stock from time to time, based upon instructions from the Company (including any price, time or size limits or other customary parameters or conditions the Company may impose). The Company will pay the Sales Agents a commission of up to 3.0% of the gross sales proceeds of any Common Stock sold through the Sales Agents under the Agreement, and also has provided the Sales Agents with customary indemnification rights.
