Disclosure Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

Certain statements contained in this Notification of Late Filing on Form 12b-25 contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and such statements are intended to be covered by the safe harbor provided by the same. These statements are based on the current beliefs and expectations of the Company’s management and are subject to significant risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking statements may generally be identified by the use of words such as “will”, “anticipate”, “expect”, “preliminary” or other similar expressions that predict or indicate future events or trends or that are not statements of historical matters, although not all forward-looking statements contain such identifying words. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to the Company’s expectations regarding its financial information for the third quarter of 2024, and the Company’s expectations as to the timing of the filing of the Q3 2024 Form 10-Q, which reflect the Company’s expectations based upon currently available information and data. These statements are based on various assumptions, whether or not identified in this Form 12b-25, made by the Company’s management, including but not limited to the completion of the Company’s final closing procedures and audit of the Company’s financial statements for the third quarter of 2024. Because these forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, there are important factors that could cause future events to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements, many of which are outside of the Company’s control. As such, there can be no assurance that such assumptions will prove to be correct and, as a result, actual results may differ materially from expectations expressed in or implied by the forward-looking statements.

The Company assumes no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, except as required by applicable laws. These forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing the Company’s assessments as of any date subsequent to the date of this Form 12b-25.
