This Supplement is being filed with the SEC and being made available to stockholders on June 3, 2025. The information in this Supplement is in addition to the information provided by the Proxy Statement and, except for the changes referenced herein, this Supplement does not modify any other information set forth in the Proxy Statement.

Change in Company’s Certifying Accountant

On June 3, 2025, the Company filed a Current Report on Form 8-K (the “Form 8-K”) announcing that the Audit Committee (the “Committee”) of the Board of Directors of the Company conducted a competitive selection process to determine the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025. The Committee invited several public accounting firms to participate in this process.

As a result of this process, following the review and evaluation of proposals from participating firms, on May 28, 2025, the Committee approved the appointment of Cherry Bekaert LLP (“CB”) as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025, effective as of June 1, 2025, pending completion of CB’s customary client acceptance procedures. On the same date, the Committee approved the dismissal of Forvis Mazars, LLP (“Forvis Mazars”) as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, also effective as of June 1, 2025.

During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, and the subsequent interim period through May 28, 2025, there were: (i) no disagreements within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K between the Company and Forvis Mazars on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to Forvis Mazars’ satisfaction, would have caused Forvis Mazars to make reference thereto in their report; and (ii) no reportable events within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K, other than the material weakness in internal control over financial reporting related to the proper design and implementation of certain controls over financial reporting related to the income tax provision and management’s review of the income tax provision, as disclosed in Part II, Item 9A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024.

The audit report of Forvis Mazars on the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2024 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.

During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, and during the subsequent interim period through May 28, 2025, neither the Company nor anyone on its behalf has consulted with CB regarding: (i) the application of accounting principles to a specific transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company's financial statements, and neither a written report nor oral advice was provided to the Company that CB concluded was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to any accounting, auditing, or financial reporting issue; (ii) any matter that was the subject of a disagreement within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions; or (iii) any reportable event within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

As a result of the dismissal of Forvis Mazars and the appointment of CB as the Company’s new independent registered public accounting firm, Proposal 2 is hereby revised such that they refer to a proposal to ratify the appointment by the Committee of CB to serve as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025. 

The Board of Directors recommends stockholders vote “FOR” the ratification of the appointment of CB as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025.
