(a) Rule 10b5-1 Trading Plans.

During the three months ended December 31, 2025, certain of our directors (as defined in Rule 16a-1(f) of the Exchange Act) adopted a “Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement” or a “non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement,” as each term is defined in Item 408(a) of Regulation S-K.

On November 25, 2025, Janet Rollé, amember of the Company’s Board of Directors, adopted a Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement that is intended to satisfy the affirmative defense conditions of Rule 10b5-1(c). Ms. Rollé’s Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement will commence on March 19, 2026, which is at least 90 days after the adoption date, and will continue until Ms. Rollé ceases to be a director of the Company. Ms. Rollé’s Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement provides for (i) on a quarterly basis, the sale of up to $25,000 (actual dollars) in net sale proceeds of which total net sale proceeds will not exceed a cumulative $100,000 (actual dollars) under the Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement.

(b) Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On March 11, 2026, the Company entered into Amendment No. 3 to Credit Agreement (the “Third Amended Credit Agreement,” as amended, supplemented, or otherwise modified from time to time prior to the Third Amended Credit Agreement, the “Credit Agreement”), which provided for an extension of the $5.0 million due date to April 30, 2026, and during the period from, and including March 6, 2026 to and including the date the $5.0 million is repaid, an incremental 2.0% rate of interest will apply (above the rate otherwise applicable under the Credit Agreement). Additionally, the minimum liquidity covenant of $5.0 million was reduced to $3.5 million at all times on or prior to April 30, 2026, and then it reverts back to $5.0 million at all times thereafter.
