        <footnote id="F1">This Form 4A amends a Form 4 filing on September 5, 2025 that incorrectly listed the number of granted stock options as 5,000. The correct number should have been 3,750.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F2">These options were granted on September 4, 2025, pursuant to the terms of a stock option agreement under the 2025 Stock Option Plan. The options vest in five equal installments on each of the first five anniversaries of the date of grant, subject to the Reporting Person's continued service through each such date.</footnote>
