SelectQuote, Inc.

PROPOSAL FOUR:

THE REVERSE STOCK SPLIT PROPOSAL

General

SelectQuote is asking stockholders to adopt and approve a proposed amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation to effect the Reverse Stock Split and the Authorized Share Reduction. Our Board of Directors has unanimously approved and declared advisable the proposed amendment, and recommends that our stockholders adopt and approve the proposed amendment. The following description of the proposed amendment is a summary and is subject to the full text of the proposed amendment, which is attached to this proxy statement as Annex A.

If stockholders approve this proposal, the Board of Directors will cause the Certificate of Amendment to be filed with the Delaware Secretary of State and effect the Reverse Stock Split and the Authorized Share Reduction only if the Board of Directors determines that the Reverse Stock Split and the Authorized Share Reduction would be in the best interests of SelectQuote and its stockholders. The Reverse Stock Split and Authorized Share Reduction could become effective as soon as the business day immediately following the Annual Meeting. The Board of Directors also may determine in its discretion not to effect the Reverse Stock Split and the Authorized Share Reduction and not to file the Certificate of Amendment. SelectQuote will not effect the Reverse Stock Split without also effecting the Authorized Share Reduction, and vice versa. No further action on the part of stockholders will be required to either implement or abandon the Reverse Stock Split or the Authorized Share Reduction.

The proposed amendment, if effected, will effect a Reverse Stock Split of the outstanding shares of SelectQuote’s common stock at a reverse stock split ratio in the range of 1-for-10 to 1-for-20, as determined by our Board of Directors at a later date. As of the Record Date, 179,261,801 shares of our common stock were issued and outstanding. Based on such number of shares of our common stock issued and outstanding, immediately following the effectiveness of the Reverse Stock Split (and without giving any effect to the payment of cash in lieu of fractional shares), we will have, depending on the reverse stock split ratio selected by our Board of Directors, issued and outstanding shares of stock as illustrated in the table under the caption “—Effects of the Reverse Stock Split and the Authorized Share Reduction—Effect on Shares of Common Stock.” The proposed amendment will result in a reduction of the total number of shares of SelectQuote’s common stock that SelectQuote is authorized to issue by a corresponding ratio. See “—Effects of the Reverse Stock Split and the Authorized Share Reduction—Effect on Shares of Common Stock” for the number of shares of common stock authorized but not outstanding or reserved that will remain available for issuance immediately following the effectiveness of the Reverse Stock Split and the Authorized Share Reduction. All holders of SelectQuote’s common stock will be affected proportionately by the Reverse Stock Split and the Authorized Share Reduction.

No fractional shares of common stock will be issued as a result of the Reverse Stock Split. Instead, any stockholder who would have been entitled to receive a fractional share as a result of the Reverse Stock Split will receive cash payments in lieu of such fractional shares. Each common stockholder will hold the same percentage of the outstanding common stock immediately following the Reverse Stock Split as that stockholder did immediately prior to the Reverse Stock Split, except to the extent that the Reverse Stock Split results in stockholders receiving cash in lieu of fractional shares. The par value of our common stock will continue to be $0.01 per share (see “—Effects of the Reverse Stock Split and the Authorized Share Reduction—Reduction in Stated Capital”).

Reasons for the Reverse Stock Split and the Authorized Share Reduction

Reverse Stock Split

Our Board of Directors has determined that it is in the best interests of SelectQuote and its stockholders to combine our shares of common stock within a range of 1-for-10 to 1-for-20, as determined by the Board of Directors at a later date, in order to reduce the number of shares of common stock outstanding. Our Board of Directors authorized the reverse split of our common stock with the primary intent of increasing the per share trading price of our common stock in order to meet the NYSE’s price criteria for continued listing on that exchange. Our common stock is publicly traded and listed on the NYSE under the symbol “SLQT.” Accordingly, for these and other reasons discussed below, we believe that effecting the Reverse Stock Split is in SelectQuote’s and our stockholders’ best interests.

On March 19, 2026, we were notified in writing by the NYSE that the average closing trading price of our common stock was below the criteria of the NYSE’s continued listing standards, as the average per share closing price of our common stock over a consecutive 30-trading-day period was less than $1.00. In the letter, the NYSE stated that we have a six-month cure period that started on March 19, 2026 to bring the price of our common stock and the 30-trading-day average closing price of our common stock above $1.00. In the letter, the NYSE further stated that in the event a $1.00 share price and a $1.00 average share price over the preceding 30 trading days are not attained at the expiration of the six-month cure period, the NYSE will commence suspension and delisting procedures.

The letter also noted, however, that if the Company determined that curing the price condition would necessitate action requiring stockholder approval, such as a reverse stock split, the Company would be permitted to seek such approval at the Annual Meeting. On August 21, 2026, we notified the NYSE of our intention to obtain stockholder approval at the Annual Meeting to pursue a reverse stock split in order to bring our share price and average share price back above $1.00, if necessary. If the reverse stock split proposal is approved, the price condition will be deemed cured if, following the implementation of the Reverse Stock Split, the Company’s stock price promptly exceeds $1.00 per share and remains at that level for at least the following 30 trading days. The NYSE has reserved the right to reevaluate its continued listing determinations relating to companies who are notified of non-compliance like SelectQuote with respect to the NYSE’s qualitative listing standards, including if our shares trade at sustained levels that are considered to be abnormally low.

In addition to bringing the per-share trading price of our common stock back above $1.00, we also believe that the Reverse Stock Split will make our common stock more attractive to a broader range of institutional and other investors, as we have been advised that the current per share trading price of our common stock may affect its acceptability to certain institutional investors, professional investors and other members of the investing public. Many brokerage houses and institutional investors have internal policies and practices that either prohibit them from investing in low-priced stocks or tend to discourage individual brokers from recommending low-priced stocks to their customers. In addition, some of those policies and practices may function to make the processing of trades in low-priced stocks economically unattractive to brokers.

Reducing the number of outstanding shares of our common stock through the Reverse Stock Split is intended, absent other factors, to increase the per share trading price of our common stock. However, other factors, such as our financial results, market conditions and the market perception of our business may adversely affect the per share trading price of our common stock. As a result, there can be no assurance that the Reverse Stock Split, if completed, will result in the intended benefits described above, that the per share trading price of our common stock will increase following the Reverse Stock Split or that the per share trading price of our common stock will not decrease in the future.

Authorized Share Reduction

As a matter of Delaware law, the implementation of the Reverse Stock Split does not require a reduction in the total number of authorized shares of our common stock. However, if stockholders adopt and approve the amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation to effect the Reverse Stock Split and the Authorized Share Reduction and the Reverse Stock Split is implemented, the authorized number of shares of our common stock also would be reduced by a corresponding ratio.

Criteria to Be Used for Determining Whether to Implement the Reverse Stock Split

In determining whether to implement the Reverse Stock Split and which reverse stock split ratio to implement, if any, following receipt of stockholder approval of the amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation to effect the Reverse Stock Split and the Authorized Share Reduction, the Board of Directors may consider, among other things, various factors, such as:

•the historical trading price and trading volume of our common stock;

•the NYSE Continued Listing Standards requirements;

•the then-prevailing trading price and trading volume of our common stock and the expected impact of the Reverse Stock Split on the trading market for our common stock in the short- and long-term; and

•prevailing general market and economic conditions.

Certain Risks and Potential Disadvantages Associated with the Reverse Stock Split and the Authorized Share Reduction

We cannot assure you that the proposed Reverse Stock Split will increase our stock price.

We expect that the Reverse Stock Split will increase the per share trading price of our common stock. However, the effect of the Reverse Stock Split on the per share trading price of our common stock cannot be predicted with any certainty, and the history of reverse stock splits for other companies is varied, particularly since some investors may view a reverse stock split negatively. It is possible that the per share trading price of our common stock after the Reverse Stock Split will not increase in the same proportion as the reduction in the number of our outstanding shares of common stock following the Reverse Stock Split, and the Reverse Stock Split may not result in a per share trading price that would attract investors who do not trade in lower priced stocks. In addition, although we believe the Reverse Stock Split may enhance the marketability of our common stock to certain potential investors, we cannot assure you that, if implemented, our common stock will be more attractive to investors. Even if we implement the Reverse Stock Split, the per share trading price of our common stock may decrease due to factors unrelated to the Reverse Stock Split, including our future performance. If the Reverse Stock Split is consummated and the per share trading price of the common stock declines, the percentage decline as an absolute number and as a percentage of our overall market capitalization may be greater than would occur in the absence of the Reverse Stock Split.

The proposed Reverse Stock Split may decrease the liquidity of our common stock and result in higher transaction costs.

The liquidity of our common stock may be negatively impacted by the Reverse Stock Split, given the reduced number of shares that would be outstanding after the Reverse Stock Split, particularly if the per share trading price does not increase as a result of the Reverse Stock Split. In addition, if the Reverse Stock Split is implemented, it will increase the number of our stockholders who own “odd lots” of fewer than 100 shares of common stock. Brokerage commission and other costs of transactions in odd lots are generally higher than the costs of transactions of more than 100 shares of common stock. Accordingly, the Reverse Stock Split may not achieve the desired results of increasing marketability of our common stock as described above.

Effective Time

The effective time of the Reverse Stock Split and the Authorized Share Reduction (the “Effective Time”), if approved by stockholders and implemented by SelectQuote, will be the date and time set forth in the Certificate of Amendment that is filed with the Delaware Secretary of State. It is expected that such filing will take place promptly following the Annual Meeting, assuming the stockholders approve the amendment. The Effective Time could occur as soon as the business day immediately following the Annual Meeting. However, the exact timing of the filing of the amendment will be determined by our Board of Directors based on its evaluation as to when such action will be the most advantageous to the Company and our stockholders.

If, at any time prior to the filing of the Certificate of Amendment with the Delaware Secretary of State, notwithstanding stockholder approval, and without further action by the stockholders, the Board of Directors, in its sole discretion, determines that it is in SelectQuote’s best interests and the best interests of SelectQuote’s stockholders to delay the filing of the Certificate of Amendment or abandon the Reverse Stock Split and the Authorized Share Reduction, the Reverse Stock Split and the Authorized Share Reduction may be delayed or abandoned.

Fractional Shares

Stockholders will not receive fractional shares of common stock in connection with the Reverse Stock Split. Instead, the transfer agent will aggregate all fractional shares and sell them as soon as practicable after the Effective Time at the then- prevailing prices on the open market, on behalf of those stockholders who would otherwise be entitled to receive a fractional share as a result of the Reverse Stock Split. We expect that the transfer agent will conduct the sale in an orderly fashion at a reasonable pace and that it may take several days to sell all of the aggregated fractional shares of our common stock. After the transfer agent’s completion of such sale, stockholders who would have been entitled to a fractional share will instead receive a cash payment from the transfer agent in an amount equal to their respective pro rata shares of the total proceeds of that sale net of any brokerage costs incurred by the transfer agent to sell such stock.

Stockholders will not be entitled to receive interest for the period of time between the Effective Time and the date payment is made for their fractional share interest. You should also be aware that, under the escheat laws of certain jurisdictions, sums due for fractional interests that are not timely claimed after the funds are made available may be required to be paid to the designated agent for each such jurisdiction. Thereafter, stockholders otherwise entitled to receive such funds may have to obtain the funds directly from the state to which they were paid.

If you believe that you may not hold sufficient shares of SelectQuote’s common stock at the Effective Time to receive at least one share in the Reverse Stock Split and you want to continue to hold SelectQuote’s common stock after the Reverse Stock Split, you may do so by either:

•purchasing a sufficient number of shares of SelectQuote’s common stock; or

•if you have shares of SelectQuote’s common stock in more than one account, consolidating your accounts;

in each case, so that you hold a number of shares of our common stock in your account prior to the Reverse Stock Split that would entitle you to receive at least one share of common stock in the Reverse Stock Split. Shares of our common stock held in registered form and shares of our common stock held in “street name” (that is, through a broker, bank or other holder of record) for the same stockholder will be considered held in separate accounts and will not be aggregated when effecting the Reverse Stock Split.

Effects of the Reverse Stock Split and the Authorized Share Reduction

General

After the effective date of the Reverse Stock Split and the Authorized Share Reduction, if implemented by the Board of Directors, each stockholder will own a reduced number of shares of common stock. The principal effect of the Reverse Stock Split and the Authorized Share Reduction will be to proportionately decrease the number of outstanding shares of our common stock based on the reverse stock split ratio selected by our Board of Directors.

Voting rights and other rights of the holders of our common stock will not be affected by the Reverse Stock Split, other than as a result of the treatment of fractional shares as described above. For example, a holder of 2% of the voting power of the outstanding shares of our common stock immediately prior to the effectiveness of the Reverse Stock Split will generally continue to hold 2% (assuming there is no impact as a result of the payment of cash in lieu of issuing fractional shares) of the voting power of the outstanding shares of our common stock after the Reverse Stock Split. The number of stockholders of record will not be affected by the Reverse Stock Split (except to the extent any are cashed out as a result of holding fractional shares). If approved and implemented, the Reverse Stock Split may result in some stockholders owning “odd lots” of less than 100 shares of our common stock. Odd lot shares may be more difficult to sell, and brokerage commissions and other costs of transactions in odd lots are generally somewhat higher than the costs of transactions in “round lots” of even multiples of 100 shares. Our Board of Directors believes, however, that these potential effects are outweighed by the benefits of the Reverse Stock Split.

Effect on Shares of Common Stock

The following table contains approximate information, based on share information as of September 18, 2026, relating to our outstanding common stock based on reverse stock split ratios within the proposed range and information regarding our authorized shares assuming that the proposal is approved and the Reverse Stock Split and the Authorized Share Reduction are implemented:

After the effective date of the Reverse Stock Split that our Board of Directors elects to implement, our common stock would have a new committee on uniform securities identification procedures (CUSIP) number, a number used to identify our common stock.

Our common stock is currently registered under Section 12(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or the Exchange Act, and we are subject to the periodic reporting and other requirements of the Exchange Act. The Reverse Stock Split will not affect the registration of our common stock under the Exchange Act or the listing of our common stock on the NYSE. Following the Reverse Stock Split, our common stock will continue to be listed on the NYSE under the symbol “SLQT,” although it will be considered a new listing with a new CUSIP number.

Effect on Par Value

The proposed amendments to our Certificate of Incorporation will not affect the par value of our common stock, which will remain at $0.01.

Reduction in Stated Capital

As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, upon the Effective Time, the stated capital on our balance sheet attributable to our common stock, which consists of the par value per share of our common stock multiplied by the aggregate number of shares of our common stock issued and outstanding, will be reduced in proportion to the size of the Reverse Stock Split, subject to a minor adjustment in respect of the treatment of fractional shares, and the additional paid-in capital account will be credited with the amount by which the stated capital is reduced. Our stockholders’ equity, in the aggregate, will remain unchanged (subject to the minor adjustment in respect of the treatment of fractional shares).

Effect on SelectQuote’s Stock Plans

As of September 18, 2026, we had approximately 3,078,335 shares subject to stock options and 18,953,014 shares subject to unvested restricted stock units (including performance-based units) outstanding under our stock incentive plans. Under our 2003 Stock Incentive Plan, as amended (the “2003 Plan”), 2020 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “2020 Plan”) and 2020 Employee Stock Purchase Plan, as amended (together with the 2003 Plan and the 2020 Plan, the “Stock Plans”), the Compensation Committee has sole discretion to determine the appropriate adjustment to the awards granted and reserved for issuance under our Stock Plans in the event of a reverse stock split. Accordingly, if the Reverse Stock Split is effected, the number of shares available for issuance under the Stock Plans, as well as the number of shares subject to any outstanding award under the Stock Plans, and the exercise price, grant price or purchase price relating to any such award under the Stock Plans, are expected to be proportionately adjusted by the Compensation Committee to reflect the Reverse Stock Split. The Compensation Committee will also determine the treatment of fractional shares subject to stock options and other outstanding awards under the Stock Plans. In addition, pursuant to the authority provided under the Stock Plans, the Compensation Committee is expected to authorize the Company to effect any other changes necessary, desirable or appropriate to give effect to the Reverse Stock Split, including any applicable technical, conforming changes to our Stock Plans.

Specifically, it is expected that the number of shares subject to awards under the Stock Plans will be adjusted in each case to equal the product of the number of shares subject to the applicable award immediately prior to the Reverse Stock Split multiplied by the reverse stock split ratio (rounded to the nearest whole share (in the case of stock options, down to the nearest whole share)), that the exercise price of any stock option will be adjusted to equal the quotient of the per-share exercise price of such stock option immediately prior to the Reverse Stock Split divided by the reverse stock split ratio (rounded up to the nearest whole cent), and that the stock price goal of any price-vested restricted stock unit awards will be adjusted in each case to equal the product of the applicable price goal in effect immediately prior to the Reverse Stock Split multiplied by the reverse stock split ratio (rounded up to the nearest whole cent).

Effect on SelectQuote’s Warrants

We have issued warrants to purchase shares of our common stock. Under the terms of the warrant agreements, in the event of a Reverse Stock Split, as of the record date of the Reverse Stock Split, the warrant price shall be increased and the number of shares issuable on exercise of the warrants shall be decreased, in each case, in proportion to such decrease in outstanding shares of common stock, such that the aggregate warrant price payable for the total number of shares of common stock issuable on exercise of the warrant is equal to the aggregate warrant price that would have been payable for the total number of shares of common stock issuable on exercise of the warrant immediately prior to such adjustment.

No Going Private Transaction

Notwithstanding the decrease in the number of outstanding shares following the proposed Reverse Stock Split, our Board of Directors does not intend for this transaction to be the first step in a “going private transaction” within the meaning of Rule 13e-3 of the Exchange Act.

Shares Held in Book-Entry and Through a Broker, Bank, or Other Holder of Record

If you hold registered shares of our common stock in a book-entry form, you do not need to take any action to receive your post-Reverse Stock Split shares of our common stock in registered book-entry form or your cash payment in lieu of fractional shares, if applicable. If you are entitled to post-Reverse Stock Split shares of our common stock, a transaction statement will automatically be sent to your address of record as soon as practicable after the Effective Time indicating the number of shares of our common stock you hold. In addition, if you are entitled to a payment of cash in lieu of fractional shares, a check will be mailed to you at your registered address as soon as practicable after the Effective Time. By signing and cashing this check, you will warrant that you owned the shares of SelectQuote’s common stock for which you received a cash payment.

At the Effective Time, we intend to treat stockholders holding shares of our common stock in “street name” (that is, through a broker, bank or other holder of record) in the same manner as registered stockholders whose shares of our common stock are registered in their names. Brokers, banks or other holders of record will be instructed to effect the Reverse Stock Split for their beneficial holders holding shares of our common stock in “street name”; however, these brokers, banks or other holders of record may apply their own specific procedures for processing the Reverse Stock Split. If you hold your shares of our common stock with a broker, bank or other holder of record, and you have any questions in this regard, we encourage you to contact your holder of record.

Shares Held in Certificated Form

If you hold any of your shares of our common stock in certificated form (the “Old Certificate(s)”), you will receive a transmittal letter from our transfer agent as soon as practicable after the Effective Time. The transmittal letter will be accompanied by instructions specifying how you can deliver your Old Certificate(s) so that you are in a position to freely trade your post-Reverse Stock Split shares of our common stock, which will be in a book-entry form, evidenced by a transaction statement that will be sent to your address of record as soon as practicable after your delivery of a letter of transmittal indicating the number of shares of our common stock you hold, together with any payment of cash in lieu of fractional shares to which you are entitled. Until surrendered as contemplated herein, a stockholder’s Old Certificate(s) shall be deemed at and after the Effective Time to represent the number of full shares of our common stock resulting from the Reverse Stock Split.

YOU SHOULD NOT SEND YOUR OLD CERTIFICATES NOW. YOU SHOULD SEND THEM ONLY AFTER YOU RECEIVE THE LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL FROM OUR TRANSFER AGENT.

Vote Required

Under Delaware law, the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting is required to adopt and approve the amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation to effect the Reverse Stock Split and the Authorized Share Reduction. Because adoption and approval of the amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation to effect the Reverse Stock Split and the Authorized Share Reduction requires a majority of the outstanding shares, an abstention with respect to the reverse stock split proposal will have the same effect as a vote “Against” the proposal.

The SelectQuote Board of Directors recommends that you vote “FOR” the reverse stock split proposal.

No Appraisal Rights

Under the DGCL, our stockholders are not entitled to dissenters’ rights or appraisal rights with respect to the reverse stock split described in this proposal, and we will not independently provide our stockholders with any such rights.

Interest of Certain Persons in Matters to Be Acted Upon

No officer or director has any substantial interest, direct or indirect, by security holdings or otherwise, in the Reverse Stock Split or the Authorized Share Reduction that is not shared by all of our other stockholders.

Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Reverse Stock Split

The following discussion is a general summary of certain U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Reverse Stock Split that may be relevant to holders of our common stock that hold such stock as a capital asset for U.S. federal income tax purposes (generally, property held for investment). This summary is based upon the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder, administrative rulings and judicial decisions as of the date hereof, all of which may change, possibly with retroactive effect, resulting in U.S. federal income tax consequences that may differ from those discussed below.

This discussion applies only to holders that are U.S. Holders (as defined below) and does not address all aspects of federal income taxation that may be relevant to such holders in light of their particular circumstances or to holders that may be subject to special tax rules, including: (i) holders subject to the alternative minimum tax; (ii) banks, insurance companies, or other financial institutions; (iii) tax-exempt organizations; (iv) dealers in securities or commodities; (v) regulated investment companies or real estate investment trusts; (vi) partnerships (or other flow-through entities for U.S. federal income tax purposes and their partners or members); (vii) traders in securities that elect to use a mark-to-market method of accounting for their securities holdings; (viii) U.S. Holders (as defined below) whose “functional currency” is not the U.S. dollar; (ix) persons holding our common stock as a position in a hedging transaction, “straddle,” “conversion transaction” or other risk reduction transaction; (x) persons who acquire shares of our common stock in connection with employment or other performance of services; or (xi) U.S. expatriates. If a partnership (including any entity or arrangement treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes) holds shares of our common stock, the tax treatment of a holder that is a partner in the partnership generally will depend upon the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership.

We have not sought, and will not seek, an opinion of counsel or a ruling from the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Reverse Stock Split and there can be no assurance that the IRS will not challenge the statements and conclusions set forth below or a court would not sustain any such challenge. The following summary does not address any U.S. state or local or any foreign tax consequences, any estate, gift or other non-U.S. federal income tax consequences, or the Medicare tax on net investment income.

EACH HOLDER OF COMMON STOCK SHOULD CONSULT SUCH HOLDER’S TAX ADVISOR WITH RESPECT TO THE PARTICULAR TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE REVERSE STOCK SPLIT TO SUCH HOLDER.

For purposes of the discussion below, a “U.S. Holder” is a beneficial owner of shares of our common stock that for U.S. federal income tax purposes is: (1) an individual citizen or resident of the United States; (2) a corporation (including any entity taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes) created or organized in or under the laws of the United States, any state or political subdivision thereof; (3) an estate the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income taxation regardless of its source; or (4) a trust, if (i) a court within the United States is able to exercise primary supervision over the administration of the trust and one or more U.S. persons have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust, or (ii) the trust has a valid election in effect to be treated as a U.S. person.

The Reverse Stock Split is intended to be treated as a “recapitalization” for U.S. federal income tax purposes. As a result, a U.S. Holder generally should not recognize gain or loss upon the Reverse Stock Split, except with respect to cash received in lieu of a fractional share of our common stock, as discussed below. A U.S. Holder’s aggregate tax basis in the shares of our common stock received pursuant to the Reverse Stock Split should equal the aggregate tax basis of the shares of our common stock surrendered (excluding any portion of such basis that is allocated to any fractional share of our common stock), and such U.S. Holder’s holding period in the shares of our common stock received should include the holding period in the shares of our common stock surrendered. Treasury regulations promulgated under the Code provide detailed rules for allocating the tax basis and holding period of the shares of our common stock surrendered to the shares of our common stock received pursuant to the Reverse Stock Split. Holders of shares of our common stock acquired on different dates and at different prices should consult their tax advisors regarding the allocation of the tax basis and holding period of such shares.

A U.S. Holder that receives cash in lieu of a fractional share of our common stock pursuant to the Reverse Stock Split should generally recognize capital gain or loss in an amount equal to the difference between the amount of cash received and the U.S. Holder’s tax basis in the shares of our common stock surrendered that is allocated to such fractional share. Such capital gain or loss should generally be long-term capital gain or loss if the U.S. Holder’s holding period for our common stock surrendered exceeded one year at the Effective Time.

The Board of Directors recommends that you vote “FOR” the reverse stock split proposal.
