The purpose of Amendment No. 1 is (i) to amend Proposal 1 in the Proxy Statement relating to the Board nominees to remove Shara Pathak and add Tim Miller, whose business background is disclosed in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Company on August 29, 2024, in place of any reference to her as well as to change the chart below on Board demographics and skills and (ii) to amend Proposal 2 in the Proxy Statement to change the ratification of the appointment of Kreit & Chiu LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm to the appointment of M&K CPAS, PLLC as the Company’s independent registered accounting firm.
This Amendment is not intended to, nor does it, reflect events occurring after the filing of the Proxy Statement and does not modify or update the disclosures therein in any way other than as required to reflect the changes described above.
This Amendment No. 1 does not provide all of the information that is important to your voting decisions at the Meeting, and the Proxy Statement contains other important additional information. This Amendment No. 1 should be read in conjunction with the Proxy Statement.
