Risk Factors

Risk Factors The Company is supplementing the risk factors previously disclosed in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, filed with the SEC on March 30, 2026, as further updated with Risk Factors included in any subsequently filed Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K (collectively, the "SEC Reports"), with the following risk factors. These risk factors should be read in conjunction with the risk factors included in the SEC Reports. Nevada law and our governing documents may reduce stockholder rights, limit available remedies, and create uncertainty in corporate disputes. As a Nevada corporation, the NRS governs fiduciary duties, stockholder voting, stockholder litigation, and other internal affairs. The NRS permits corporations to limit, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the individual liability of directors and officers to corporations, their stockholders and creditors for damages as a result of any act or failure to act as a director or officer and to provide broad indemnification and advancement rights. Our Articles of Incorporation eliminate or limit the liability of our directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by the NRS, and our Bylaws provide for broad indemnification and advancement of expenses to our directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by the NRS. These features can make it more difficult for stockholders to bring or sustain claims against directors and officers and may reduce potential recoveries. Our Bylaws also designate the Eighth Judicial District Court of Clark County, Nevada (or, if that court lacks jurisdiction, another Nevada state court or, if no Nevada state court has jurisdiction, a federal court in Nevada), as the exclusive forum for certain internal corporate claims, and the federal district courts of the United States as the exclusive forum for claims arising under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended. These provisions may limit
