The Company adjourned the Annual Meeting a second time to allow its retail stockholders additional time to consider and vote on each of the proposals, which are described in the Proxy Statement.

Each stockholder’s vote matters and is important no matter how many shares are owned. The Company requests that its stockholders please take the time to read and respond to the Company’s proxy materials that were previously provided to them and vote promptly. Voting over the phone or on the Internet will require that its stockholders have their proxy control number available. That number is either printed on the proxy, if stockholders received a physical copy of the proxy materials, or Notice of Internet Availability, if the proxy materials were electronically delivered. Stockholders who have sold their shares but were a holder of record at the close of business on April 8, 2021, the record date for the Annual Meeting, remain entitled to vote. The Board encourages stockholders to vote “FOR” each of the proposals.

Proxies submitted to date for the Annual Meeting continue to be valid and will be voted at the Annual Meeting on July 22, 2021 in accordance with the stockholder’s instructions.

Stockholders who need assistance in submitting their proxy or voting their shares should call the Company’s proxy solicitor, Alliance Advisors at 844-858-7383.
