Explanatory Note

 

This Amendment No.1 (the “Amendment”) to the annual report on Form 10-K (File No. 001-41667), originally filed on April 10, 2025 (the “Original Filing”), is being filed solely for the purpose of including Exhibit 99.3, a copy of the Company’s Executive Compensation Recovery Policy (the “Clawback Policy”), which was inadvertently omitted by the Company when originally filed. This Amendment contains only the cover page, this explanatory note, the exhibit index, the signature page and the revised certifications.

 

Except for the foregoing, this Amendment does not alter or update any information contained in the Original Filing. The Original Filing continues to speak as of the date of the Original Filing, and the Company has not updated the disclosures contained therein to reflect any events that have occurred as of a date subsequent to the date of the Original Filing. Accordingly, this Amendment should be read in conjunction with the Original Filing, and the Company’s filings made with the SEC subsequent to the filing of the Original Filing.
