Item 8.01. Other Events.
As previously disclosed in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed
by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 4, 2026, Kavita Mahtani resigned as a Class I Director effective
as of June 11, 2026, the date of the Company’s 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. As a result, the size of the Board of Directors
(the “Board”) of the Company was reduced from ten directors to nine directors, resulting in four Class III Directors,
three Class II Directors and two Class I Directors. In order to rebalance the class sizes to be as nearly equal in number as
possible as required by the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, the Board determined that one
of its directors should be reclassified from Class III (with a term expiring at the Company’s 2029 annual meeting of stockholders)
to Class I (with a term expiring at the Company’s 2027 annual meeting of stockholders).
Accordingly, effective June 11, 2026, Colin Angle, a member of
the Board, resigned from his position as a Class III Director solely for purposes of reclassification, subject to and conditioned
upon his immediate reappointment as a Class I Director. The Board accepted Mr. Angle’s resignation and immediately reappointed
him as a Class I Director, to serve in such capacity until the Company’s 2027 annual meeting of stockholders or until his successor
is duly elected and qualified, or his earlier death, resignation, or removal. Following Mr. Angle’s resignation and reappointment
described above, the Board consists of three Class I Directors, three Class II Directors and three Class III Directors.
The resignation and reappointment of Mr. Angle was effected solely
for the purpose of reclassifying the members of the Board into three classes of equal size, and for all other purposes, Mr. Angle’s
service on the Board is deemed to have continued uninterrupted. There were no changes to Mr. Angle’s committee assignments
or compensation as a non-employee director as a result of the resignation as a Class III Director and appointment as a Class I
Director.
