The proposals voted on at the Special Meeting are more fully described in the Definitive Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on December 2, 2022, which information is incorporated by reference herein. The final voting results on the proposals presented for stockholder approval at the Special Meeting were as follows:
