On August 5, 2025, the Board, upon the recommendation of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, appointed Justin Spencer to the Board, effective September 1, 2025. Mr. Spencer was appointed to fill a newly created vacant Board seat due to the expansion of the Board from seven (7) to eight (8) directors, also effective September 1, 2025. Mr. Spencer will serve as a Class I director and a member of the Audit Committee of the Board (the “Audit Committee”) until the 2026 annual meeting of stockholders, and until his successor is duly elected and qualified, or until his earlier resignation, death, or removal.
Mr. Spencer will receive cash and equity compensation pursuant to the Company’s non-employee director compensation policy (the “Non-Employee Director Compensation Policy”).

From November 2002 to June 2008, Mr. Spencer worked at Covad Communications Group (“Covad”), a then publicly traded company that provided voice and data communications products and services, overseeing finance, accounting, human resources and corporate development. While at Covad, he served as Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer as well as Vice President of Finance, Corporate Development and Investor Relations.
