Information Regarding Company’s Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (“PwC”) has served as our independent registered public accounting firm since September 27, 2022. Representatives of PwC are expected to be present at the Special Meeting, will have the opportunity to make a statement if they desire to do so and are expected to be available to respond to appropriate questions from shareholders at the Special Meeting.

As previously disclosed, the Company dismissed BDO USA, LLP (“BDO”) as its independent registered public accounting firm effective September 27, 2022. The decision to dismiss BDO was made by the Company’s Board. BDO’s audit report on the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2022, and June 30, 2021; did not contain any adverse opinions or disclaimers of opinion; and was not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles. During the fiscal years ended June 30, 2021, June 30, 2022 and the subsequent interim period through August 31, 2022, there were no (i) “disagreements,” with BDO, as such term is described in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K promulgated under the Exchange Act (“Regulation S-K”), on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreement(s) or reportable event(s), if not resolved to the satisfaction of BDO, would have caused BDO to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement(s) or reportable event(s) in connection with its report on the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022, or (ii) “reportable events,” as such term is described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.
