Procedures for Submitting Stockholder Proposals

Requirements for Stockholder Proposals to be Brought Before the Annual Meeting

Our bylaws provide that, for nominations of persons for election to our Board or other proposals to be considered at an annual meeting of stockholders, a stockholder must give written notice to our Secretary at 2 Canal Park, Cambridge, MA 02141, not later than the close of business 90 days, nor earlier than the close of business 120 days, prior to the first anniversary of the date of the preceding year’s annual meeting. However, the bylaws also provide that in the event the date of the annual meeting is more than 30 days before or more than 60 days after such anniversary date, notice must be delivered not later than the close of business on the later of the 90th day prior to such annual meeting or the 10th day following the day on which public announcement of the date of such meeting is first made. Any nomination must include (i) all information required by our bylaws, and (ii) all information relating to the nominee that is required to be disclosed in solicitations of proxies for election of directors in election contests or is otherwise required under Regulation 14A of the Exchange Act, including the nominee’s written consent to be named in the proxy statement and to serve as a director if elected and such information as we might reasonably require to determine the eligibility of the person to serve as a director. As to proposals regarding other business, the notice must include a brief description of the business desired to be brought before the meeting, the reasons for conducting such business at the meeting, the text, if any, of any resolutions or bylaw amendment proposed for adoption, and any material interest of such stockholder (and the beneficial owner) in the proposal. The proposal must be a proper subject for stockholder action. In addition, to make a nomination or proposal, the stockholder must be of record at the time the notice is made and must provide certain information regarding itself (and the beneficial owner), including the name and address, as they appear on our books, of the stockholder proposing such business or nomination, the class and number of shares of our capital stock and/or synthetic equity interest (as defined in the bylaws) which are, directly or indirectly, owned beneficially or of record by the stockholder proposing such business or nomination, or its affiliates or associates (as defined in Rule 12b-2 promulgated under the Exchange Act) and certain additional information.

No stockholder may solicit proxies in support of director nominees other than the company’s nominees unless the stockholder has complied with Rule 14a-19 promulgated under the Exchange Act, including the timely provision of notices to the company required thereunder. If any stockholder that provides notice subsequently fails to comply with the requirements of Rule 14a-19(a)(2) or Rule 14a-19(a)(3) promulgated under the Exchange Act, including the timely provision of notices to the company required thereunder, and no other proposing person has provided notice in compliance with Rule 14a-19 under the Exchange Act that it intends to solicit proxies in support of the election of such proposed nominee in accordance with Rule 14a-19(b) under the Exchange Act, then such proposed nominee will be disqualified.

A stockholder, or a group of up to 20 stockholders, that has owned continuously for at least three years shares of our common stock representing an aggregate of at least 3% of our outstanding shares, may nominate and include in our proxy materials two director nominees or a number of nominees constituting 20% of our Board, or if such amount is not a whole number, the closest whole number below 20%, provided that the stockholder(s) and nominee(s) satisfy the requirements in our bylaws. Notice of proxy access director nominees must be received no earlier than the close of business on December 25, 2025 and no later than the close of business on January 24, 2026.

The advance notice requirements under our bylaws for the 2026 annual meeting of stockholders are as follows: a stockholder’s notice shall be timely if delivered to our Secretary at the address set forth above not earlier than February 4, 2026 and not later than the close of business on March 6, 2026. However, if the date of our 2026 annual meeting of stockholders occurs more than 30 days before or 60 days after June 4, 2026, the anniversary of the Annual Meeting, a stockholder notice will be timely if it is received at the address set forth above by the later of the close of business on (1) the 90th day prior to such annual meeting or (2) the tenth day following the day on which public disclosure of the date of the meeting is made. In addition, to comply with universal proxy rules, stockholders who intend to solicit proxies in support of director nominees other than the company’s nominees must provide notice that sets forth the information required by Rule 14a-19 under the Exchange Act no later than April 5, 2026.
