At Closing, the Selling Shareholder will have valid and unencumbered title free and clear of any and all liens, claims, charges, pledges, encumbrances and security interests, to the Shares to be sold by the Selling Shareholder hereunder. At the Closing, valid title to the Shares shall vest with the Company, free and clear of any and all liens, claims, charges, pledges, encumbrances and security interests other than those existing under applicable securities laws and those created by the Company or any of its affiliates. The Selling Shareholder has not entered into or agreed to be bound by any other arrangements or agreements of any kind with any other person or entity with respect to the Shares, including, but not limited to, arrangements or agreements with respect to the acquisition or disposition thereof or any interest therein or the voting of any such Shares.

The Selling Shareholder understands, based on its experience, the disadvantage to which the Selling Shareholder is subject due to the disparity of information between the Company and the Selling Shareholder but nevertheless desires to enter into this transaction as a means to sell the Shares in a single large transaction rather than engage in sales in the open market over an extended period of time. The Selling Shareholder agrees that the Company and its directors, officers, employees and agents shall have no liability to the Selling Shareholder, its affiliates, principals, shareholders, partners, employees, agents, grantors or beneficiaries, whatsoever due to or in connection with the Company’s use or non-disclosure of any such information or otherwise as a result of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement, and the Selling Shareholder hereby irrevocably waives any claim that it might have based on the failure of the Company to disclose such information.

(i) The Selling Shareholder (either alone or together with its advisors) has such knowledge and experience in financial or business matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement. The Selling Shareholder is entering into this Agreement with a full understanding of all of the terms, conditions and risks and willingly assumes those terms, conditions and risks. The Selling Shareholder has received (through electronic access on EDGAR) and carefully reviewed the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 and subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, all additional public filings of the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), other publicly available information regarding the Company, and such other information

that it and its advisers deem necessary to make its decision to enter into this Agreement and consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. The Selling Shareholder has evaluated the merits and risks of the transactions under this Agreement based exclusively on its own independent review and consultations with such investment, legal, tax, accounting and other advisers as it deemed necessary, and has made its own decision concerning such transaction without reliance upon any express or implied representations or warranties of any nature made by or on behalf of the Company, whether or not any such representations, warranties or statements were made in writing or orally, except as expressly set forth for the benefit of the Selling Shareholder in this Agreement.

(j) From and after the Closing, the Selling Shareholder shall have no further right or title to or interest in the Shares or any dividends, distributions, equity interests or other rights in respect thereof.

(k) The Selling Shareholder has not employed or entered into any agreement with, nor is the Selling Shareholder subject to, any valid claim of any broker, finder, consultant, or other intermediary in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement who might be entitled to a fee or commission in connection with such transactions.

(l) The Company is relying on the Selling Shareholder’s representations, warranties, acknowledgments and agreements in this Agreement as a condition to proceeding with the transaction contemplated hereby, and without such representations, warranties and agreements, the Company would not enter into this Agreement or engage in such transaction.

4. Publicity. Each of the Selling Shareholder and the Company agrees that it shall not, and that it shall cause its affiliates and representatives not to, (a) publish, release or file any initial press release or other public statement or announcement relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (an “Initial Press Release”) before providing a copy of such release, statement or announcement to the other, and (b) after the date hereof, publish, release or file any future press release or other public statement or announcement relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement that is materially inconsistent with any such Initial Press Release; provided, however, that each party acknowledges and agrees that any party shall be permitted to make any required filings with the SEC without providing a copy of such filing to any other party.
