Ms. Quinn, age 33, brings more than nine years of executive leadership experience in high-growth technology and transportation sectors, with expertise in mergers and acquisitions, integration planning, strategic partnerships, business development, market expansion, and operational scaling. Since February 2025, she has served as an M&A Integration Consultant at Windels Marx (Transportation Sector), leading post-deal integration efforts, stakeholder coordination, and regulatory compliance workstreams. Previously, she was Director, Business Development & Head of Market Expansion & Integrations at Kaptyn (2020–2023), where she oversaw new market launches, acquisition due diligence, merger integration planning, and multi-regional team leadership. From 2016 to 2019, she served as Director of Operations & Special Projects at Juno, directing global operations supporting over 48,000 independent contractors and managing regulatory partnerships with authorities such as the NYC Taxi & Limousine Commission. Ms. Quinn holds a B.A. in Nursing Science from Stevenson University (2014) and an M.S. in Public Health from Cornell University (2017).
The Board has determined that Ms. Quinn qualifies as an independent director under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5605(a)(2) and applicable SEC rules.
In connection with her appointment, the Company and Ms. Quinn entered into an Independent Director Engagement Agreement dated April 16, 2026 (the “Director Agreement”).

The Director Agreement also provides for expense reimbursement in accordance with Company policy. The Director Agreement is consistent with the Company’s Director Compensation Policy.
The foregoing description of the Director Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
