The legality of the securities offered hereby has been passed upon by Suraj A. Palakshappa, Senior Vice President, Finance & Legal of the Registrant, who, as of September 4, 2026, beneficially owned 16,028 shares of Common Stock.


Item 6.			Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

The Registrant is incorporated under the laws of the State of Georgia.

Section 14-2-851 of the Georgia Business Corporation Code (the “GBCC”) empowers the Registrant to indemnify a director (including a former director and including a director who is or was serving at the Registrant’s request as a director, officer, partner, trustee, employee or agent of another foreign or domestic corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other entity) against liability incurred in a proceeding if: (1) the director conducted himself or herself in good faith; and (2) the director reasonably believed: (A) in the case of conduct in his or her official capacity, that such conduct was in the best interests of the corporation; (B) in all other cases, that such conduct was at least not opposed to the best interests of the corporation; and (C) in the case of any criminal proceeding, that the director had no reasonable cause to believe such conduct was unlawful. Subsection (d) of Section 14-2-851 of the GBCC provides that a corporation may not indemnify a director in connection with a proceeding by or in the right of the corporation, except for reasonable expenses incurred in connection with the proceeding if it is determined that the director has met the relevant standard of conduct under Section 14-2-851, or in connection with any proceeding with respect to conduct for which such director was adjudged liable on the basis that personal benefit was improperly received by such director, whether or not involving action in such director’s official capacity.

In addition, Section 14-2-856 of the GBCC permits the Registrant’s articles of incorporation, the Registrant’s bylaws, a contract or a resolution approved or ratified by the Registrant’s shareholders to authorize the Registrant to indemnify a director against claims to which the director was a party, including claims by the Registrant or in its right (e.g., shareholder derivative action). However, the Registrant may not indemnify the director where the director is adjudged liable to the Registrant or if the director is subjected to injunctive relief in the Registrant’s favor for (i) any misappropriation of a business opportunity belonging to the Registrant, (ii) intentional misconduct or knowing violation of the law, (iii) unlawful distributions or (iv) receipt of an improper benefit.

Section 14-2-852 of the GBCC provides for mandatory indemnification against reasonable expenses incurred by a director who is wholly successful, on the merits or otherwise, in defending an action to which the director was a party due to his or her status as the Registrant’s director. Section 14-2-854 allows a court, upon application by a director, to order indemnification and/or advancement of expenses if it determines that the director is entitled to indemnification under the GBCC or it determines that indemnification is fair and reasonable even if, among other things, the director has failed to meet the statutory standard of conduct provided under Section 14-2-851. However, the court may not order indemnification in excess of reasonable expenses where the Registrant is adjudged liable in a proceeding by or in the right of the corporation or for receipt of an improper benefit.

Section 14-2-857 of the GBCC permits the Registrant to indemnify an officer (including a former officer and including an officer who is or was serving at the Registrant’s request as a director, officer, partner, trustee, employee or agent of another foreign or domestic corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other entity) to the same extent as a director. The Registrant may indemnify an officer who is not a director to a further extent by means of the Registrant’s articles of incorporation, bylaws, board resolutions, or by contract. However, the Registrant may not indemnify an officer for liability arising from conduct involving misappropriation of a business opportunity of the Registrant, intentional misconduct or knowing violation of the law, unlawful distributions, or receipt of an improper benefit. An officer who is not a director is also entitled to mandatory indemnification and may apply for court-ordered indemnification.

Section 14-2-858 of the GBCC permits the Registrant to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of the Registrant’s directors and officers against liability incurred by them in their capacities or arising out of their status as the Registrant’s directors and officers, regardless of whether the Registrant would have the power to indemnify or advance expenses to the director or officer for the same liability under the GBCC.

The Bylaws of the Registrant provide, in effect, that, to the fullest extent and under the circumstances permitted by the GBCC, the Registrant will indemnify any and all of its officers and directors. In addition, the Registrant carries director and officer liability insurance on behalf of its officers and directors.
