terms of the Merger Agreement, at the Effective Time, the Company’s bylaws were amended and restated in their entirety to read as the bylaws of Merger Sub read immediately prior to the Effective Time, except that references to Merger Sub’s name

Item 5.07

Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

On July 16, 2026, the Company held a special meeting of stockholders (the “Special Meeting”) to consider certain proposals related to the Merger

Agreement.

As of June 11, 2026, the record date for the Special Meeting, there were 17,622,180 shares of Company Common Stock outstanding, each of which was

entitled to one vote on each proposal at the Special Meeting. A total of 12,648,846 shares of Company Common Stock, representing approximately 71.77% of the outstanding shares of Company Common Stock entitled to vote, were present virtually or

represented by proxy at the Special Meeting, constituting a quorum to conduct business.

At the Special Meeting, the following proposals were considered:

1.

A proposal to adopt the Merger Agreement (the “Merger Agreement Proposal”);

2.

A proposal to approve, by advisory (non-binding) vote, the compensation that may be paid or become payable to the named executive officers of the Company in connection with the consummation of the Merger

(the “Advisory Compensation Proposal”); and

3.

A proposal to approve any adjournment of the Special Meeting, if necessary, to solicit additional proxies if there were insufficient votes in favor of the Merger Agreement Proposal at the time of the Special

Meeting (the “Adjournment Proposal”).

Each proposal is described in detail in the Company’s definitive proxy statement filed with the SEC on June 12, 2026 and first mailed to the Company’s

stockholders on June 12, 2026.

Each of the three proposals was approved by the requisite vote of the Company’s stockholders. In addition to receiving the approval of the holders of a

majority of the outstanding shares of Company Common Stock entitled to vote on the Merger Agreement Proposal at the Special Meeting in accordance with the Delaware General Corporation Law (“Threshold 1”), the Merger Agreement Proposal was approved

by the holders of a majority of votes cast by the Disinterested Stockholders (as defined in the Merger Agreement) at the Special Meeting (“Threshold 2”).

The final voting results for each proposal are described below.

A.

The Corporation shall, to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL, as the same exists or may hereafter be amended, indemnify and hold harmless any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be

made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the Corporation) (a “Proceeding”), by reason of the fact

that such person is or was a director or officer of the Corporation, or is or was a director or officer of the Corporation serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation,

partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise, against expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and disbursements and ERISA excise taxes), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually

and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation,

and, with respect to any Proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe such person’s conduct was unlawful. The termination of any Proceeding, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption

that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner which such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation, and, with respect to any Proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that such

person’s conduct was unlawful.

B.

The Corporation shall, to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL, indemnify and hold harmless any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to or is otherwise involved in any

Proceeding by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director or officer of the Corporation, or is or was a director or officer of the Corporation, is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee

conditions of the Change of Control remain unchanged from those set forth in the applicable Change of Control Notice.  Such Election Notice must be delivered on or prior to the later of (x) five (5) Business Days prior to the date on which the

Company anticipates consummating a Change of Control (as specified in the Change of Control Notice) and (y) five (5) Business Days after the Holder’s receipt of the Change of Control Notice (such period, the “Election Period”). In the event a Holder timely receives a Change of Control Notice in accordance with this Section 6(b) and fails to deliver the Election

Notice within the applicable Election Period, such Holder shall be deemed to have irrevocably waived its right to require the Company (or its successor or the acquiring or surviving Person in a Change of Control) to redeem any or all of its

outstanding shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock under this Section 6; provided, that if there is any change to the

economic terms or material other terms and conditions of the Change of Control as compared to those set forth in the applicable Change of Control Notice, the Company shall deliver another Change of Control Notice and commence a new Election

Period with respect thereto in accordance with this Section 6 (which shall apply mutatis mutandis).

(c)          Delivery of Redemption Price.  If either the Company (or its successor or the acquiring or surviving Person in a Change of Control) or a Holder has exercised its right to redeem, or

require redemption of, any outstanding shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock pursuant to Section 6(a), then following the consummation of a Change of Control and on or about the same

date thereof, subject to Section 6(d), the Company (or its successor or the acquiring or surviving Person in a Change of Control) shall deliver or cause to be delivered to each Holder

by wire transfer of immediately available funds in cash the applicable Redemption Price with respect to each of such Holder’s shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock so redeemed.  In case of any redemption at the option of the Company (or its

successor or the acquiring or surviving Person in a Change of Control) of part but not all of the shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock at the time outstanding, the shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock to be redeemed shall be redeemed by the

Company (or its successor or the acquiring or surviving Person in a Change of Control) from the Holders pro rata based on the number of shares of Series A-1 Preferred

Stock held by each Holder.  If the shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock are certificated, and fewer than all the shares represented by any single certificate are redeemed, then a new certificate shall be issued representing the Unredeemed

Shares without charge to the Holder thereof.  No action on the part of the Holder shall be required to receive the applicable Redemption Price, other than to surrender to the Transfer Agent in accordance with the instructions delivered pursuant

to the Change of Control Notice the certificates representing the shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock to be redeemed by the Company or lost stock affidavits therefor (together with any customary indemnity that may be required by the Transfer

Agent and the Company), to the extent applicable, or book entry statements evidencing such shares, if uncertificated, as a condition to receiving the applicable Redemption Price; provided

that in no event shall any Holder, in connection with any such redemption, be required to agree to any restrictive covenants.

(d)           Partial Redemption.  If Delaware law (or other applicable law) prohibits the Company from redeeming any or all of the shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock required or sought to be redeemed

pursuant to this Section 6, the Company shall not be entitled to elect to redeem any such shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock pursuant to Section 6(a)(i) and, with respect to any shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock with respect to which Holders have exercised their redemption rights pursuant to Section

6(a)(ii), the Company shall ratably redeem the maximum number of such shares that it may redeem consistent with such law, and the Company shall redeem the remaining shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock submitted for redemption as

soon as it may lawfully do so under such law.  The inability of the Company (or its successor or the acquiring or surviving Person in a Change of Control) to pay the Redemption Price due to not having sufficient funds legally available therefor

shall not relieve the Company (or its successor or the acquiring or surviving Person in a Change of Control) from its obligation to effect the redemption in full when, as and if permitted by applicable law.

(e)          Effect of Redemption.  Effective immediately prior to the close of business on the Redemption Date for any shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock redeemed pursuant to this Section 6, Dividends shall no longer accrue or be declared on any such shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock, such shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock shall cease to be outstanding, and

all rights (except to receive the applicable Redemption Price as described herein) with respect to such shares shall cease and terminate, notwithstanding that any certificate of any share called for redemption has not been surrendered for

cancellation.

(f)          Status of Redeemed Shares.  Shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock redeemed in accordance with this Section 6 shall return to the

status of and constitute authorized but unissued shares of Preferred Stock, without classification as to series until such shares are once more classified as a particular series by the Board pursuant to the provisions of the Certificate.

(g)           Change of Control Agreement.  The Company shall not enter into any agreement for a transaction constituting a Change of Control unless (i) such agreement provides for or does not prevent

(as applicable) the exercise by the Holders of their rights to require the Company (or its successor or the acquiring or surviving Person in a Change of Control) to redeem their shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock in a manner that is

consistent with and gives effect to this Section 6, and (ii) the acquiring or surviving Person in such Change of Control represents or covenants, in form and substance reasonably

satisfactory to the Board acting in good faith, that at the closing of such Change of Control such Person shall have sufficient funds (which may include, without limitation, cash and cash equivalents on the Company’s balance sheet, the proceeds

of any debt or equity financing, available lines of credit or uncalled capital commitments) to consummate such Change of Control and the payment of the applicable Redemption Price in respect of all outstanding shares of Series A-1 Preferred

Stock.

SECTION 7.           Redemption at the Option of the Company.

(a)          Optional Redemption.  The Company may, at its option, redeem for cash all (but not less than all) of the outstanding shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock (an “Optional Redemption”) (provided, that any such optional redemption by the Company of all (but not less than all) of the outstanding shares of Series

A-1 Preferred Stock must occur with the Company also exercising its optional redemption of all (but not less than all) outstanding shares of Series A-2 Preferred Stock pursuant to Section 7 of the Certificate of Designations for the Series A-2

Preferred Stock), at a price per share of Series A-1 Preferred Stock (the “Redemption Price”) equal to:

(i) if the Redemption Date is on or prior to the first (1st) anniversary of the Initial Closing Date, (A) 104.0% multiplied by (B) the sum of (x) the Liquidation Preference plus (y) any Accrued Dividends with respect to such share of Series A-1

Preferred Stock plus (z) any accrued and unpaid dividends since the most recent Dividend Payment Date with respect to such share of Series A-1 Preferred Stock as of the Redemption Date;

(ii) if the Redemption Date is after the first (1st) anniversary but on or prior to the second (2nd) anniversary of the

Initial Closing Date, (A) 102.0% multiplied by (B) the sum of (x) the Liquidation Preference plus (y) any Accrued Dividends

with respect to such share of Series A-1 Preferred Stock plus (z) any accrued and unpaid dividends since the most recent Dividend Payment Date with respect to such share of Series A-1

Preferred Stock as of the Redemption Date;

(iii) if the Redemption Date is after the second (2nd) anniversary but on or prior to the third (3rd) anniversary of the

Initial Closing Date, (A) 101.0% multiplied by (B) the sum of (x) the Liquidation Preference plus (y) any Accrued Dividends

with respect to such share of Series A-1 Preferred Stock plus (z) any accrued and unpaid dividends since the most recent Dividend Payment Date with respect to such share of Series A-1

Preferred Stock as of the Redemption Date; and

(iv) if the Redemption Date is after the third (3rd) anniversary of the Initial Closing Date, (A) 100.0% multiplied by (B) the sum of (x) the Liquidation Preference plus (y) any Accrued Dividends with respect to such share of Series A-1 Preferred Stock plus (z) any accrued and unpaid dividends since the most recent Dividend Payment Date with respect to such share of Series A-1 Preferred Stock as of the Redemption Date.

(b)         Notice of Optional Redemption.  If the Company elects to effect an Optional Redemption, then a written notice (a “Notice of Optional

Redemption”) shall be sent by or on behalf of the Company to each Holder at its address as it appears in the records of the Company.  The Notice of Optional Redemption shall (i) notify such Holders of the election of the Company

to redeem all shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock, the Redemption Price and the Redemption Date, (ii) state the place at which the shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock called for redemption shall be redeemed and (iii) state where the Holder

should deliver wire instructions for payment of the Redemption Price.  The Redemption Date selected by the Company for an Optional Redemption shall be not less than ten (10) Business Days and not more than twenty (20) Business Days after the

date on which the Company delivers the Notice of Optional Redemption to the Holders.

(c)           Delivery of Redemption Price.  On the Redemption Date for the Optional Redemption, the Company shall deliver or cause to be delivered to each Holder by wire transfer of immediately

available funds in cash the applicable Redemption Price with respect to each of such Holder’s shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock so redeemed.  No action on the part of the Holder shall be required to receive the applicable Redemption Price,

other than to surrender to the Transfer Agent in accordance with the instructions delivered pursuant to the Notice of Optional Redemption the certificates representing the shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock to be redeemed by the Company or

lost stock affidavits therefor (together with any customary indemnity that may be required by the Transfer Agent and the Company), to the extent applicable, or book entry statements evidencing such shares, if uncertificated, as a condition to

receiving the applicable Redemption Price; provided that in no event shall any Holder, in connection with any such redemption, be required to agree to any restrictive covenants.

(d)          Effect of Redemption.  Effective immediately prior to the close of business on the Redemption Date for any shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock redeemed pursuant to this Section 7, Dividends shall no longer accrue or be declared on any such shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock, such shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock shall cease to be outstanding, and

all rights (except to receive the applicable Redemption Price as described herein) with respect to such shares shall cease and terminate, notwithstanding that any certificate of any share called for redemption has not been surrendered for

cancellation.

(e)           Status of Redeemed Shares.  Shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock redeemed in accordance with this Section 7 shall return to the

status of and constitute authorized but unissued shares of Preferred Stock, without classification as to series until such shares are once more classified as a particular series by the Board pursuant to the provisions of the Certificate.

SECTION 8.           Mandatory Redemption.

(a)          Mandatory Redemption.  On the Mandatory Redemption Date, the Company shall redeem for cash all (and not less than all) of the outstanding shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock (the “Mandatory Redemption”), at a price per share of Series A-1 Preferred Stock equal to the Mandatory Redemption Price.

(b)           Notice of Mandatory Redemption.  Not less than thirty (30) or more than sixty (60) Business Days prior to the Mandatory Redemption Date, a written notice (the “Notice of Mandatory Redemption”) shall be sent by or on behalf of the Company to each Holder at its address as it appears in the records of the Company.  The Notice of Mandatory Redemption shall (i) set forth

the Mandatory Redemption Price for each share to be redeemed and the Mandatory Redemption Date, (ii) state the place at which the shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock shall be redeemed and (iii) state where the Holder should deliver wire

instructions for payment of the Mandatory Redemption Price.  Any failure or defect in the delivery of the Notice of Mandatory Redemption shall not affect the Company’s obligation to redeem all of the outstanding shares of Series A-1 Preferred

Stock pursuant to this Section 8.

(c)           Delivery of Mandatory Redemption Price.  On the Mandatory Redemption Date, the Company shall deliver or cause to be delivered to each Holder by wire transfer of immediately available funds

in cash the applicable Mandatory Redemption Price with respect to each of such Holder’s shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock.  No action on the part of the Holder shall be required to receive the Mandatory Redemption Price, other than to

surrender to the Transfer Agent in accordance with the instructions delivered pursuant to the Notice of Mandatory Redemption the certificates representing the shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock to be redeemed by the Company or lost stock

affidavits therefor (together with any customary indemnity that may be required by the Transfer Agent and the Company), to the extent applicable, or book entry statements evidencing such shares, if uncertificated, as a condition to receiving

the applicable Mandatory Redemption Price; provided that in no event shall any Holder, in connection with any such redemption, be required to agree to any restrictive covenants.

(d)           Partial Redemption.  The Company shall apply all of its assets to paying the Mandatory Redemption Price for all outstanding shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock and to no other corporate

purpose, except to the extent prohibited by Delaware law (or other applicable law).  If the Company shall fail to redeem all of the outstanding shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock for any reason on the Mandatory Redemption Date (a “Mandatory Redemption Default Event”), in addition to the increase in the Dividend Rate and without limiting any other available remedies to the Holders, the Company shall take any and all

reasonable actions to generate sufficient funds to redeem all of the outstanding shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock, including by way of selling assets, raising equity or other financing or otherwise, and any such funds shall immediately be

used to pay the Mandatory Redemption Price for the outstanding shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock.  If Delaware law (or other applicable law) prohibits the Company from redeeming any of the outstanding shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock on

the Mandatory Redemption Date, then the Company shall ratably redeem the maximum number of the outstanding shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock that it may redeem consistent with such law, and the Company shall redeem the remaining outstanding

shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock as soon as it may lawfully do so under such law until it has completed the Mandatory Redemption in full.  The inability of the Company (or its successor) to complete the Mandatory Redemption due to not

having sufficient funds legally available therefor shall not relieve the Company (or its successor) from its obligation to effect the Mandatory Redemption in full when, as and if permitted by applicable law.

(e)           Effect of Redemption.  Effective immediately prior to the close of business on the date the Mandatory Redemption Price is paid with respect to a share of Series A-1 Preferred Stock

pursuant to this Section 8, Dividends shall no longer accrue or be declared on such share of Series A-1 Preferred Stock, such share of Series A-1 Preferred Stock shall cease to be

outstanding, and all rights (except to receive the applicable Mandatory Redemption Price as described herein) with respect to such shares shall cease and terminate, notwithstanding that any certificate of any share called for redemption has not

been surrendered for cancellation.

(f)           Status of Redeemed Shares.  Shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock redeemed in accordance with this Section 8 shall return to the

status of and constitute authorized but unissued shares of Preferred Stock, without classification as to series until such shares are once more classified as a particular series by the Board pursuant to the provisions of the Certificate.

SECTION 9.           Redemption upon a Bankruptcy Triggering Event.

(a)         Bankruptcy Triggering Event.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, upon any Bankruptcy Triggering Event at any time, the Company shall immediately redeem for cash, out of funds

legally available therefor, each of the shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock then outstanding at the applicable Redemption Price (which for purposes of this Section 9 shall be

calculated by replacing references to “Redemption Date” with “date of the Bankruptcy Triggering Event” in the definition of “Redemption Price”), by wire transfer of immediately available funds in cash, without the requirement for any notice or

demand or other action by any Holder or any other Person; provided that a Holder may, in its sole discretion, waive such right to receive payment upon a Bankruptcy Triggering Event,

in whole or in part, and any such waiver shall not affect any other rights of such Holder or any other Holder hereunder, including any other rights in respect of such Bankruptcy Triggering Event, and any right to payment of such Redemption

Price or any other amount, as applicable.  No action on the part of the Holder shall be required to receive the applicable Redemption Price, other than to surrender to the Transfer Agent the certificates representing the shares of Series A-1

Preferred Stock to be redeemed by the Company or lost stock affidavits therefor (together with any customary indemnity that may be required by the Transfer Agent and the Company), to the extent applicable, or book entry statements evidencing

such shares, if uncertificated, as a condition to receiving the applicable Redemption Price; provided that in no event shall any Holder, in connection with any such redemption, be

required to agree to any restrictive covenants.

(b)          Effect of Redemption.  Effective immediately prior to the close of business on the Redemption Date for any shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock redeemed pursuant to this Section 9, Dividends shall no longer accrue or be declared on any such shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock, such shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock shall cease to be outstanding, and

all rights (except to receive the applicable Redemption Price as described herein) with respect to such shares shall cease and terminate, notwithstanding that any certificate of any share called for redemption has not been surrendered for

cancellation.

(c)           Status of Redeemed Shares.  Shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock redeemed in accordance with this Section 9 shall return to the

status of and constitute authorized but unissued shares of Preferred Stock, without classification as to series until such shares are once more classified as a particular series by the Board pursuant to the provisions of the Certificate.

SECTION 10.       Treatment of Unredeemed Shares.  In the event (i) any shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock are not called or submitted for redemption pursuant to Sections 6 or 7 herein, as applicable or (ii) the Company fails to pay the applicable Redemption Price or Mandatory Redemption Price, as applicable, in full

when due in accordance with Sections 6, 7, 8 or 9 herein, as applicable, in respect of some or all of the shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock called or submitted for redemption (any such shares being “Unredeemed Shares” until the Redemption Price or Mandatory Redemption Price, as applicable, in respect thereof is paid in full in accordance with the Certificate of Designations), then such shares will remain

outstanding, shall continue to bear cumulative dividends (and the Redemption Price or Mandatory Redemption Price, as applicable, shall be increased to include such additional unpaid dividends) and shall retain their powers, designations,

preferences and other rights under the Certificate of Designations until the Redemption Price or Mandatory Redemption Price, as applicable, in respect thereof is paid in full in accordance with the Certificate of Designations.

SECTION 11.         Approval Rights.

(a)           Series A-1 Approval Rights.  Except as expressly set forth herein, the Series A-1 Preferred Stock shall be non-voting.  The vote or consent of the Holders or holders, as

Section 17 of the Certificate of Designations);

(iii)          incurring, assuming or guaranteeing any Indebtedness after the Initial Closing Date; provided that such vote or consent shall not be required for the following:  (A) any

or more of its wholly owned Subsidiaries; and (D) any refinancing of the Credit Agreement (other than a Junior Credit Agreement) or Indebtedness that is outstanding immediately prior to the Initial Closing Date (including, for the avoidance of

doubt, any subsequent refinancings thereof), including the amount of customary fees, expenses and discounts related to such refinancing;

(iv)         declaring, paying or setting aside any dividend on, or making any distribution with respect to, any Junior Stock or Parity Stock, other than (A) a dividend or distribution payable solely in Junior Stock, or (B) a dividend or

designations, preferences, conversion or other rights, voting powers, restrictions, limitations as to dividends and other distributions, qualifications or other terms of any class or series of stock of the Company shall be deemed an amendment to

the Certificate.  Any of the actions prohibited by this Section 11(a) (if taken without the prior affirmative vote or consent of Holders or holders, as applicable, of at least a majority

of the shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock and Series A-2 Preferred Stock outstanding at such time approving such action) or Section 11(b) (if taken without the prior affirmative vote or

and without limiting the foregoing, the vote or consent of the Holders of at least a majority of the shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock outstanding at such time, voting together as a single class, given in person or by proxy, either in

writing without a meeting or by vote at any meeting called for such purpose, will be required to, whether by amendment, merger, consolidation, operation of Law or otherwise, and whether or not such approval is required pursuant to the DGCL, (i)

amend, alter, modify, repeal or waive any provision of the Certificate (including the Certificate of Designations and the Certificate of Designations for the Series A-2 Preferred Stock) or Bylaws in a manner that materially and adversely

the Holders of the shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock entitled to cast not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize, take or consent to such action at a meeting of such stockholders. The Holders of Series A-1

Preferred Stock shall not have the right to vote such shares on matters other than those expressly set forth in the Certificate of Designations or as otherwise required by law.

SECTION 12.        Minimum Return.  Following the second anniversary of the Initial Closing Date, if (a) a redemption of any of the outstanding shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock occurs pursuant to Section 6(a)(i) or Section 6(a)(ii) or (b) an Optional Redemption occurs (the Redemption Date applicable to either clause (a) or (b) referred to herein as an “Applicable Redemption Date”), then the Company shall pay to each Holder on the Applicable Redemption Date, in cash, an amount equal to the Incremental Amount for each share of Series A-1 Preferred Stock held

by such Holder on the Applicable Redemption Date that is so redeemed.

SECTION 13.       Transfer Agent, Conversion Agent, Registrar and Paying Agent.  The duly appointed Transfer Agent and paying agent for the Series A-1 Preferred Stock shall be the Company.  The Company may,

in its sole discretion, appoint any other Person to serve as Transfer Agent or paying agent for the Series A-1 Preferred Stock and thereafter may remove or replace such other Person at any time.  Upon any such appointment or removal, the

Company shall send notice thereof to the Holders.

SECTION 14.        Replacement Certificates.  If physical certificates evidencing the Series A-1 Preferred Stock are issued, then the Company shall replace any mutilated certificate at the Holder’s expense

upon surrender of that certificate to the Transfer Agent.  The Company shall replace certificates that become destroyed, stolen or lost at the Holder’s expense upon delivery to the Company and the Transfer Agent of satisfactory evidence that

the certificate has been destroyed, stolen or lost, together with any indemnity that may be required by the Transfer Agent and the Company.

SECTION 15.         Taxes.

(a)          Withholding.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any amounts payable with respect to the Series A-1 Preferred Stock

any taxes required to be so deducted and withheld under applicable law.  To the extent that any amounts are so deducted or withheld and paid over to the appropriate Governmental Entity, such deducted or withheld amounts shall be treated for all

purposes of the Certificate of Designations as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction or withholding was made.  The Company shall

cooperate in good faith with the Holders to minimize or eliminate any such withholding or deduction, including by giving the Holders an opportunity to provide additional information or to apply for an exemption from, or a reduced rate of,

withholding.

(b)           Tax Treatment.  The Company and the Holders agree that (i) it is intended that, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, (A) the mere accrual of dividends with respect to the Series A-1

Preferred Stock shall not be treated as a dividend, unless and until such dividends are declared and paid in cash, (B) the Series A-1 Preferred Stock shall be treated as stock that is “preferred stock” within the meaning of Section 305 of the

Code and the U.S. Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, (C) Holders will be treated as receiving constructive distributions from the Company with respect to shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock over the time period beginning on the

Issuance Date of such shares and ending on the Mandatory Redemption Date under Section 305(c) of the Code in the aggregate amount equal to the excess, if any, of (x) the Liquidation Preference on the Issuance Date of such shares over (y) the

original purchase price for such shares (which amount shall be taken into account over such time period in accordance with the principles described in Section 305(c)(3) of the Code), and (D) any Incremental Amount received by a Holder shall be

treated as an additional amount received by a Holder in exchange for the shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock redeemed in the relevant redemption, and (ii) except to the extent otherwise required by a “determination” within the meaning of

Section 1313(a) of the Code (or any similar provision of state, local or non-U.S. law), neither the Company nor any Holder shall take any position inconsistent with such treatment on any tax return, in any tax proceeding or otherwise.

(c)           Transfer Taxes.  The Company shall pay any and all documentary, stamp and similar issue or transfer tax (“Transfer Taxes”) due

on the issue of shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock or certificates representing such shares. However, the Company shall not be required to pay any Transfer Tax that may be payable in respect of the issue or delivery (or any transfer involved

in the issue or delivery) of any Series A-1 Preferred Stock to a beneficial owner other than the beneficial owner of the Series A-1 Preferred Stock immediately prior to the event pursuant to which such issue or delivery is required, and no such

issue or delivery shall be made unless and until the Person requesting such issue or delivery has paid to the Company the amount of any such Transfer Tax or has established to the satisfaction of the Company that such Transfer Tax has been paid

or is not payable.

SECTION 16.         Rights and Remedies of Holders.

(a)           The various

provisions set forth under the Certificate of Designations and the Series A-1 Preferred Stock are for the benefit of the Holders.  The Holder of any share of the Series A-1 Preferred Stock at the time outstanding may protect and enforce the

rights of such Holder under the Series A-1 Preferred Stock and the Certificate of Designations by an action at law, suit in equity or other appropriate proceeding, whether for the specific performance of any agreement contained herein or in the

Series A-1 Preferred Stock, or for an injunction against a violation of any of the terms hereof or thereof, or in aid of the exercise of any power granted hereby or thereby or by law or otherwise.  Without limitation of the foregoing, the

Holders would be damaged irreparably in the event any of the provisions of the Certificate of Designations are not performed in accordance with their specific terms or otherwise are breached.  Accordingly, the Holders will be entitled to an

injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of the provisions of the Certificate of Designations and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Certificate of Designation, including by one or more actions for specific

performance, in addition to any other remedy to which they may be entitled, at law or in equity.  The Company waives any defense that a remedy at law is adequate and any requirement to prove special damages, post bond or provide similar

security in connection with actions instituted for injunctive relief or specific performance of the Certificate of Designations.

(b)         Except as

expressly set forth herein, all remedies available under the Certificate of Designations, at law, in equity or otherwise, will be deemed cumulative and not alternative or exclusive of other remedies.  The exercise by any Holder of a particular

remedy will not preclude the exercise of any other remedy.

SECTION 17.         Conversion.

(a)           Each share of

Series A-1 Preferred Stock shall automatically, without any further action by the Company or the Holder thereof, be converted into one (1) share of Series A-2 Preferred Stock upon the occurrence of a Transfer of such share of Series A-1

Preferred Stock by the Holder to any Person other than a Permitted Transferee of such Holder.  All of the terms and conditions of the Series A-1 Preferred Stock and Series A-2 Preferred Stock shall be identical in all material respects, except

with respect to this Section 17 and Section 12 of the Certificate of Designations.

(b)          In the event of

and upon a conversion of shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock into shares of Series A-2 Preferred Stock pursuant to Section 17(a), such conversion shall be deemed to have been made, as applicable, at the time that the Transfer of shares

occurred and all rights of the Holders of Series A-1 Preferred Stock shall cease and the Person or Persons in whose names or names the shares of Series A-2 Preferred Stock are to be issued shall be treated for all purposes as having become the

record holder or holders of such shares of Series A-2 Preferred Stock.

(c)          The Company will

at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares of Series A-2 Preferred Stock, solely for the purpose of effecting the conversion of the shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock pursuant to this Section 17, such

number of shares of Series A-2 Preferred Stock as will from time to time be sufficient to effect the conversion of all outstanding shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock into shares of Series A-2 Preferred Stock.

(d)          If the Company

in any manner subdivides or combines the outstanding shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock or Series A-2 Preferred Stock, then the outstanding shares of Series A-2 Preferred Stock or Series A-1 Preferred Stock, respectively, will be subdivided

or combined in the same proportion and manner.

SECTION 18.        Notices.  All notices referred to herein shall be in writing and, unless otherwise specified herein, all notices hereunder shall be deemed to have been given upon the earlier of receipt

thereof or three (3) Business Days after the mailing thereof if sent by registered or certified mail with postage prepaid, addressed:  (i) if to the Company, to its office at 3 Ravinia Drive, Floor 5, Atlanta, GA 30346, (ii) if to any Holder,

to such Holder at the address and/or electronic mail address of such Holder as listed in the stock record books of the Company (which, for all purposes hereunder, may include the records of the Transfer Agent) or (iii) to such other address as

the Company or any such Holder, as the case may be, shall have designated by notice similarly given.

SECTION 19.       Facts Ascertainable.  When the terms of the Certificate of Designations refer to a specific agreement or other document to determine the meaning or operation of a provision hereof, the

Secretary of the Company shall maintain a copy of such agreement or document at the principal executive offices of the Company and a copy thereof shall be provided free of charge to any Holder who makes a request therefor.  The Secretary of the

Company shall also maintain a written record of the Issuance Date, the number of shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock issued to a Holder and the date of each such issuance, the Liquidation Preference and Accrued Dividends per share of Series

A-1 Preferred Stock and the Dividend Rate in effect from time to time and shall furnish such written record free of charge to any Holder who makes a request therefor.

SECTION 20.        Waiver; Amendment.  Notwithstanding any provision in the Certificate of Designations to the contrary, (a) any provision contained herein and any right of the Holders of Series A-1

Preferred Stock granted hereunder may be waived as to all shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock (and the Holders thereof) upon the written consent of the Holders of two-thirds of the shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock then outstanding; provided that any amendment, modification or waiver that, by its terms, would adversely and uniquely affect a Holder relative to other Holders without similarly affecting all of Holders

shall require the prior written consent of such adversely and uniquely affected Holder and (b) any amendment hereto (but not any waiver hereunder) shall require the affirmative vote of a majority of the Board of Directors.  Any amendment,

modification, repeal, restatement, supplementation, termination or waiver of, or consent to any departure by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries from, the Certificate of Designations shall be ultra vires, null and void ab initio and of no force or effect without the Company having obtained the affirmative vote or consent of the

Holders or holders, as applicable, as required by the applicable provisions of the Certificate of Designations.

SECTION 21.        Severability.  If any term of the Series A-1 Preferred Stock set forth herein is invalid, unlawful or incapable of being enforced by reason of any rule of law or public policy, then all

other terms set forth herein that can be given effect without the invalid, unlawful or unenforceable term will, nevertheless, remain in full force and effect, and no term herein set forth will be deemed dependent upon any other such term unless

so expressed herein.

SECTION 22.        Interpretation.  When a reference is made in the Certificate of Designations to an Article, Section, Exhibit or Schedule, such reference shall be to an Article of, a Section of, or an

Exhibit or Schedule to the Certificate of Designations unless otherwise indicated.  Whenever the words “include,” “includes” or “including” are used in the Certificate of Designations, they shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without

limitation.”  The words “hereof,” “herein” and “hereunder” and words of similar import when used in the Certificate of Designations shall refer to the Certificate of Designations as a whole and not to any particular provision of the Certificate

of Designations unless the context requires otherwise.  The words “date hereof” when used in the Certificate of Designations shall refer to November 9, 2023.  The terms “or,” “any” and “either” are not exclusive.  The word “extent” in the

phrase “to the extent” shall mean the degree to which a subject or other thing extends, and such phrase shall not mean simply “if.”  The word “will” shall be construed to have the same meaning and effect as the word “shall.”  The definitions

contained in the Certificate of Designations are applicable to the singular as well as the plural forms of such terms and to the masculine as well as to the feminine and neuter genders of such term.  Any agreement, instrument or statute defined

or referred to herein or in any agreement or instrument that is referred to herein means, unless otherwise specified, such agreement, instrument or statute as from time to time amended, modified or supplemented, including (in the case of

agreements or instruments) by waiver or consent and (in the case of statutes) by succession of comparable successor statutes and references to all attachments thereto and instruments incorporated therein; provided, that, for the avoidance of doubt, references to the Credit Agreement shall not include any amendments, modifications or supplements after November 9, 2023.  Unless otherwise specifically indicated, all

references to “dollars” or “$” shall refer to the lawful money of the United States.  Unless otherwise set forth herein, when calculating the period of time between which, within which or following which any act is to be done or step taken

pursuant to the Certificate of Designations, the date that is the reference date in calculating such period shall be excluded (and unless otherwise required by law, if the last day of such period is not a Business Day, the period in question

shall end on the next succeeding Business Day).

SECTION 23.         No Other Rights. Except as set forth in the Certificate, the Bylaws, the Investment Agreement or the Investor Rights Agreement (as defined in the Investment Agreement) or as otherwise

required by law or any contract entered into by the Company and any Holder after the date hereof, the Holders will have no rights or preferences in respect of the Series A-1 Preferred Stock except as provided in the Certificate of Designations.

SECTION 9.          ACTION

final disposition of the proceeding, promptly following request therefor, all expenses incurred by any director or officer in connection with such proceeding provided, however, that if the DGCL requires, an advancement of expenses incurred by a

director or officer in his or her capacity as a director or officer (and not in any other capacity in which service was or is rendered by such indemnitee, including, without limitation, service to an employee benefit plan) shall be made only

upon delivery to the Corporation of an undertaking (hereinafter an “undertaking”), by or on behalf of such indemnitee, to repay all amounts so advanced if it shall ultimately be determined by final judicial decision from which there is no

further right to appeal (hereinafter a “final adjudication”) that such indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified for such expenses under this section or otherwise.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, unless otherwise determined pursuant to Section 5 of this Article VI, no advance shall be made by the

Corporation to an officer of the Corporation (except by reason of the fact that such officer is or was a director of the Corporation in which event this paragraph shall not apply) in any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal,

administrative or investigative, if a determination is reasonably and promptly made (i) by a majority vote of directors who were not parties to the proceeding, even if not a quorum, or (ii) by a committee of such directors designated by a majority

vote of such directors, even though less than a quorum, or (iii) if there are no such directors, or such directors so direct, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion, that the facts known to the decision-making party at the time such

determination is made demonstrate clearly and convincingly that such person acted in bad faith or in a manner that such person did not believe to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation.

SECTION 4.          ENFORCEMENT.

– Without the necessity of entering into an express contract, all rights to indemnification and advances to directors and officers under these By-Laws shall be deemed to be contractual rights and be effective to the same extent and as if

provided for in a contract between the Corporation and the director or officer. Any right to indemnification or advances granted by this section to a director or officer shall be enforceable by or on behalf of the person holding such right in

any court of competent jurisdiction if (i) the claim for indemnification or advances is denied, in whole or in part, or (ii) no disposition of such claim is made within ninety (90) days of request therefor. To the extent permitted by law, the

claimant in such enforcement action, if successful in whole or in part, shall be entitled to be paid also the expense of prosecuting the claim. In connection with any claim for indemnification, the Corporation shall be entitled to raise as a

defense to any such action that the claimant has not met the standards of conduct that make it permissible under the DGCL or any other applicable law for the Corporation to indemnify the claimant for the amount claimed. In connection with any

claim by an officer of the Corporation (except in any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that such officer is or was a director of the Corporation) for advances, the

Corporation shall be entitled to raise a defense as to any such action clear and convincing evidence that such person acted in bad faith or in a manner that such person did not believe to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the

Corporation, or with respect to any criminal action or proceeding that such person acted without reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was lawful. Neither the failure of the Corporation (including its Board of Directors, independent

legal counsel or its stockholders) to have made a determination prior to the commencement of such action that indemnification of the claimant is proper in the circumstances because the officer or director has met the applicable standard of

conduct set forth in the DGCL or any other applicable law, nor an actual determination by the Corporation (including its Board of Directors, independent legal counsel or its stockholders) that the claimant has not met such applicable standard

of conduct, shall be a defense to the action or create a presumption that claimant has not met the applicable standard of conduct. In any suit brought by a director or officer to enforce a right to indemnification or to an advancement of

expenses hereunder, the burden of proving that the director or officer is not entitled to be indemnified, or to such advancement of expenses, under this section or otherwise shall be on the Corporation.

SECTION 5.          NON-EXCLUSIVITY

OF RIGHTS. – The rights conferred on any person by these By-Laws shall not be exclusive of any other right which such person may have or hereafter acquire under any applicable statute, provision of the Certificate of Incorporation, By-Laws,

agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in such person's official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding office. The Corporation is specifically authorized to enter into

individual contracts with any or all of its directors, officers, employees, agents, or authorized persons respecting indemnification and advances, to the fullest extent not prohibited by the DGCL, or by any other applicable law.

SECTION 6.          SURVIVAL

OF RIGHTS. – The rights conferred on any person by these By-Laws shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee, or agent, or other authorized person and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and

administrators of such a person.

-9-

SECTION 7.          INSURANCE.

– To the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL or any other applicable law, the Corporation, upon approval by the Board of Directors, may purchase insurance on behalf of any person required or permitted to be indemnified pursuant to this

section.

SECTION 8.          AMENDMENTS.

– Any repeal or modification of this section shall only be prospective and shall not affect the rights under these By-Laws in effect at the time of the alleged occurrence of any action or omission to act that is the cause of any proceeding

against any agent or authorized person of the Corporation.

SECTION 9.          SAVING

CLAUSE. – If these By-Laws or any portion hereof shall be invalidated on any ground by any court of competent jurisdiction, then the Corporation shall nevertheless indemnify each director and officer to the full extent not prohibited by any

applicable portion of this section that shall not have been invalidated, or by any other applicable law. If this section shall be invalid due to the application of the indemnification provisions of another jurisdiction, then the Corporation

shall indemnify each director and officer to the full extent under any other applicable law.

SECTION 10.        CERTAIN DEFINITIONS. – For the

purposes of these By-Laws, the following definitions shall apply:

(a)          The term “proceeding” shall be broadly

construed and shall include, without limitation, the investigation, preparation, prosecution, defense, settlement, arbitration and appeal of, and the giving of testimony in, any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding,

whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative.

(b)          The term “expenses” shall be broadly

construed and shall include, without limitation, court costs, attorneys' fees, witness fees, fines, amounts paid in settlement or judgment and any other costs and expenses of any nature or kind incurred in connection with any proceeding.

(c)          The term the “Corporation” shall

include, in addition to the resulting Corporation, any constituent Corporation (including any constituent of a constituent) absorbed in a consolidation or merger which, if its separate existence had continued, would have had power and authority

to indemnify its directors, officers, and employees, agents or authorized persons, so that any person who is or was a director, officer, employee, agent or authorized person of such constituent Corporation, or is or was serving at the request

of such constituent Corporation as a director, officer, employee, agent or authorized person of another Corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, shall stand in the same position under the provisions of this section

with respect to the resulting or surviving Corporation as he would have with respect to such constituent Corporation if its separate existence had continued.

(d)          References to a “director,” “officer,”

“employee,” “agent,” or “authorized person” of the Corporation shall include, without limitation, situations where such person is serving at the request of the Corporation as, respectively, a director, officer, employee, trustee, agent or

authorized person of another Corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise.

-10-

(e)          References to “other enterprises”

shall include employee benefit plans; references to “fines” shall include any excise taxes assessed on a person with respect to an employee benefit plan; and references to “serving at the request of the Corporation” shall include any service as

a director, officer, employee, agent or authorized person of the Corporation which imposes duties on, or involves services by, such director, officer, employee, agent, or authorized person with respect to an employee benefit plan, its

participants, or beneficiaries; and a person who acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in the interest of the participants and beneficiaries of an employee benefit plan shall be deemed to have acted in a

manner “not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation” as referred to in this section.

ARTICLE VII

AMENDMENTS

These By-Laws may be altered, amended or repealed at any annual meeting of the stockholders (or at any special meeting thereof if notice

of such proposed alteration, amendment or repeal to be considered is contained in the notice of such special meeting) by the affirmative vote of the holders of shares constituting a majority of the voting power of the Corporation.  Except as

otherwise provided in the Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation, the Board of Directors may by majority vote of those present at any meeting at which a quorum is present, or by unanimous written consent in accordance with the DGCL, alter,

amend or repeal these By-Laws, or enact such other By-Laws as in their judgment may be advisable for the regulation and conduct of the affairs of the Corporation.
