Context and Significance

The transactions were executed pursuant to a pre-arranged Rule 10b5-1 trading plan adopted on January 16, 2026. Given that the 20,000 shares sold represent less than 0.3% of Mr. Kurtz's direct holdings of over 7.4 million shares (and excluding unvested equity/indirect trusts), the trading significance is considered Low. The activity reflects scheduled diversification under an established plan rather than an ad-hoc or sentiment-driven divestment.
