To fill the vacancy created by Dr. Lu’s departure, on March 20, 2026, the board of directors of the Company (the “Board”) appointed Dr. Yi Chen as an independent director of the Company, a member of each of the nominating and corporate governance committee, audit committee, and compensation committee, and as the chairperson of the nominating and corporate governance committee.

The Board has also determined that Dr. Chen qualifies as an audit committee financial expert under the rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and as a financially sophisticated audit committee member under the Nasdaq listing rules. The biographical information of Dr. Yi Chen is set forth below.

Dr. Yi Chen, age 32, has worked as a postdoctoral researcher specializing in teaching and scientific research at Chengdu University of Technology since November 2024.
