Background

The reporting person is a tax qualified employee stock ownership plan under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”), with individual accounts for the accrued benefits of participating employees and their beneficiaries. The reporting person is administered by the issuer (the “Plan Administrator”) and its assets are held in trust by a trustee (the “Plan Trustee”). The number of shares listed as beneficially owned represents the entire number of shares of common stock held by TI-TRUST, Inc., as Plan Trustee, as of December 31, 2023.

As of December 31, 2023, 58,592 of such shares of common stock had been allocated to individual accounts established for participating employees and their beneficiaries and 333,088 of such shares of common stock were unallocated and are being held for allocation in future years.

The ESOP, through the Plan Trustee (who is instructed by the Plan Administrator), has shared voting power and dispositive power over all unallocated shares held by the ESOP. The ESOP, acting through the Plan Trustee (who is instructed by Plan Administrator), shares dispositive power over all allocated shares held in the ESOP with participating employees and their beneficiaries. Participating employees and their beneficiaries have the right to determine whether shares allocated to their respective accounts will be tendered in response to a tender offer but otherwise have no dispositive power. Any unallocated shares are generally required to be tendered by the Plan Trustee in the same proportion as the shares which have been allocated to the participants are directed to be tendered. In limited circumstances, ERISA may confer upon the Plan Trustee the power and duty to control the voting and tendering of shares allocated to the accounts of participating employees and beneficiaries who fail to exercise their voting and/or tender rights or whose instructions are inconsistent with the fiduciary requirements of ERISA.

Instruction. For computations regarding securities which represent a right to acquire an underlying security see §240.13d-3(d)(1).
