The Board of Directors has fixed the close of business on October 10, 2022 as the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to notice of and to vote during the 2022 Annual Meeting and any adjournment thereof.

In addition to complying with this deadline, stockholder proposals intended to be considered for inclusion in the Company’s proxy materials for the 2022 Annual Meeting must also comply with all applicable SEC rules, including Rule 14a-8 of the Exchange Act.

Pursuant to the Company’s Bylaws, any stockholder seeking to raise a proposal outside the processes of Exchange Act Rule 14a-8 or make a director nomination for consideration at the 2022 Annual Meeting must comply with the requirements of the Bylaws, including delivering such proposals and/or nominations to the executive offices of the Company located at 4995 Bradenton Avenue, Suite 240, Dublin, Ohio 43017, Attention: Corporate Secretary, by no later than close of business on October 10, 2022.
