Support Agreement, by and between Company and Nitor, dated November 4, 2024 ( and incorporated herein by this reference)

Board Representation and Board Matters.

Concurrently with the Company’s execution of this Agreement, the Company has (i) increased the size of the Board such that there would be a vacancy on the Board and (ii) appointed Mr. Eric Speron (the “Appointee”) to fill the newly created vacancy, with a term expiring at the Company’s 2025 annual meeting of stockholders (the “2025 Annual Meeting”).

The Board, and all applicable committees of the Board, shall take all necessary actions to nominate and recommend the Appointee as a candidate for election to the Board at the 2025 Annual Meeting, and the Company agrees to recommend, support and solicit proxies for the election of the Appointee at the 2025 Annual Meeting in a manner no less rigorous and favorable than the manner in which the Company supports the Board’s other nominees.

The Company agrees that, during the Standstill Period (as defined herein), the Appointee shall be considered along with all other Board members for Board committee assignments in connection with the Board’s annual review of committee composition.

The Company agrees that if, during the Standstill Period, the Appointee (or his replacement appointed pursuant to this Section 1(d)) is unable to serve as a director for any reason, and at such time Stockholder has a Beneficial Ownership (as defined herein) of at least the lesser of (x) 1.2% of the Company’s then outstanding Common Stock and (y) 321,776 shares of Common Stock (subject to adjustment for stock splits, reclassifications, combinations, and similar adjustments), then Stockholder shall have the ability to identify and recommend a replacement director, provided that any such candidate so recommended shall qualify as “independent” under NYSE’s listing standards. In the event that the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board (the “Nominating Committee”) does not recommend to the Board or, as provided below, the Board does not thereafter elect the replacement director so recommended (it being acknowledged that the Nominating Committee and Board cannot unreasonably withhold, condition, or delay their respective recommendation or election), then Stockholder shall have the right to recommend an additional replacement director for consideration by the Nominating Committee and/or Board. Upon recommendation of a replacement director candidate by the Nominating Committee, the Board will take such actions as are necessary to elect such replacement director to the Board no later than ten (10) business days after the Nominating Committee’s recommendation. Subject to NYSE rules and applicable law, upon a replacement director’s election to the Board, the Board and all applicable committees of the Board shall take all necessary actions to appoint such replacement director to any applicable committee of the Board of which the replaced director was a member immediately prior to such director’s resignation or removal. Following the appointment of any replacement director in accordance with this Section 1(d), any reference to the Appointee in this Agreement shall be deemed to refer to such replacement director.

Certain Other Matters.

Stockholder agrees that during the Standstill Period, Stockholder shall not, directly or indirectly, and Stockholder shall cause each Stockholder Affiliate (as defined herein) not to, directly or indirectly:

purchase or cause to be purchased or otherwise acquire or agree to acquire Beneficial Ownership of any Voting Securities, if in any such case, immediately after the taking of such action, Stockholder would, individually or in the aggregate with Stockholder Affiliates, collectively have Beneficial Ownership of an amount that would equal or exceed 5.0% of the then outstanding shares of Common Stock;

take any action, alone or with a Third Party, in support of or make any public proposal or request that constitutes (A) controlling or changing the Board or management of the Company, including any plans or proposals to change the number of directors or to fill any vacancies on the Board (except as specifically permitted in Section 1), (B) any material change in the capitalization, share repurchase programs and practices, capital allocation programs and practices or dividend policy of the Company, (C) any other material change in the Company’s management, business or corporate structure or (D) seeking to have the Company waive or make amendments or modifications to the Company’s certificate of incorporation or bylaws;

(“ISS”) and Glass Lewis & Co. LLC (“GL”) recommend otherwise with respect to any proposals (other than as related to the election, removal or replacement of directors), Stockholder shall be permitted to vote in accordance with ISS’s and GL’s recommendation; provided, further, that Stockholder shall be permitted to vote in its sole discretion on any proposal of the Company in respect of any Extraordinary Transaction.

Public Announcements. Promptly following the execution of this Agreement, the Company shall announce the election of the Appointee in a press release (the “Press Release”). The Company shall provide Stockholder with a copy of the Press Release prior to releasing it and shall consider in good faith any timely comments of Stockholder, but Stockholder shall have no right to approve the content of the Press Release; provided, however, to the extent that the Press Release includes any reference to, or disclosure regarding, Stockholder, Stockholder shall be entitled to approve the content of such reference and/or disclosure.

In the event Stockholder becomes required to file a Schedule 13D with respect to the Company, Stockholder shall provide the Company with a copy of such Schedule 13D prior to its filing with the SEC and shall consider in good faith any timely comments of the Company, but the Company shall have no right to approve the content of such Schedule 13D.

No Litigation. During the Standstill Period, each party hereby covenants and agrees that it shall not, and shall not permit any of its respective agents, subsidiaries, Affiliates, officers or directors to, directly or indirectly, alone or in concert with others, encourage, pursue or assist any other person to institute, solicit, assist or join, as a party, any litigation, arbitration or other proceeding against or involving the other party, any Affiliate of the other party, or any of its or their respective current or former directors or officers (solely in connection with their service in such capacities), except for (i) any action to enforce the provisions of this Agreement, (ii) any counterclaims with respect to any proceeding initiated by, or on behalf of one party or its Affiliates against the other party or its Affiliates in violation of this Agreement or (iii) responding to or complying with validly issued legal process.

Miscellaneous. The parties hereto recognize and agree that if for any reason any of the provisions of this Agreement are not performed in accordance with their specific terms or are otherwise breached, immediate and irreparable harm or injury would be caused for which money damages would not be an adequate remedy.

By execution and delivery of this Agreement, each of the parties hereto irrevocably accepts and submits itself to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any such court, generally and unconditionally, with respect to any such action, suit or proceeding and waives any defense of forum non conveniens or based upon venue if such action, suit or proceeding is brought in accordance with this provision.

Entire Agreement. This Agreement contains the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and may be amended only by an agreement in writing executed by the parties hereto.

Notices.

Severability. If at any time subsequent to the date hereof, any provision of this Agreement shall be held by any court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, void or unenforceable, such provision shall be of no force and effect, but the illegality or unenforceability of such provision shall have no effect upon the legality or enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement.

Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts which together shall constitute a single agreement.

Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall not be assignable by any of the parties to this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other party.

Each party and its counsel cooperated and participated in the drafting and preparation of this Agreement and the documents referred to herein, and any and all drafts relating thereto exchanged among the parties shall be deemed the work product of all of the parties and may not be construed against any party by reason of its drafting or preparation. Accordingly, any rule of law or any legal decision that would require interpretation of any ambiguities in this Agreement against any party that drafted or prepared it is of no application and is hereby expressly waived by each of the parties hereto, and any controversy over interpretations of this Agreement shall be decided without regards to events of drafting or preparation. The section headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. The term “including” shall be deemed to mean “including without limitation” in all instances.
