However, despite this ruling, the Court went on to find that Mr. Kellners notice of nominations did not comply with certain of the Companys remaining (or predecessor) advance notice provisions. The Reporting Persons disagree with the Courts opinion on this latter finding as to numerous matters of fact and law and Mr. Kellner is seeking an expedited appeal and to enjoin the Companys Annual Meeting pending such appeal. The Reporting Persons are attaching as exhibit hereto a copy of a press release that the Kellner Group issued on January 3, 2024 with respect to the foregoing.

Notwithstanding anything contained herein, the Reporting Persons specifically reserve the right to change their intention with respect to any or all of such matters. In reaching any decision as to its course of action (as well as to the specific elements thereof), the Reporting Persons currently expect that they would take into consideration a variety of factors, including, but not limited to, the following: the actions of the Companys board and whether the Reporting Persons believe it is acting
