Appointment of Chandu Thota as Director
On July 23, 2026, pursuant to the recommendation of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board of Directors (the "Board") of the Company, the Board unanimously appointed Chandu Thota as a Class II director effective on July 27, 2026. Simultaneously with the appointment of Mr. Thota, the Board increased its size from 10 to 11 directors. The term of the Company’s Class II directors, including Mr. Thota, expires at the Company's annual meeting of stockholders to be held in 2027 or until their successors are duly elected and qualified or until their earlier resignation, death, or removal.
In connection with the appointment of Mr. Thota, the Board determined that Mr. Thota is independent within the meaning of the listing standards of the New York Stock Exchange.
There are no family relationships between Mr. Thota and any of the directors or executive officers of the Company, and there are no transactions in which Mr. Thota has a direct or indirect material interest requiring disclosure under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K. There is no arrangement or understanding between Mr. Thota and any other person pursuant to which Mr. Thota was selected as a director of the Company.
Mr. Thota's compensation will be consistent with that provided to all of the Company’s non-employee directors pursuant to the Company’s Amended and Restated Non-Employee Director Compensation Policy, a copy of which is included as Exhibit 10.9 to the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2026. In addition, the Company will enter into an indemnification agreement with Mr.Thota in connection with his appointment to the Board, in substantially the same form as that entered into with the Company’s other directors.
On July 29, 2026, the Company issued a press release announcing the appointment of Mr. Thota to the Board. A copy of the press release was furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 29, 2026.
Voting Matters
You are not being asked to vote on or ratify the appointment of Mr. Thota. Mr. Thota, as a Class II director, is not a nominee for election at the Annual Meeting. Accordingly, there is no change to "Proposal No. 1 - Election of Class I Directors" included in the Proxy Statement.
Please note that any proxy card that we delivered has not changed and may still be used to vote your shares in connection with the Annual Meeting. If you have already submitted your vote, you do not need to take any further action. Information on how to vote your shares and how to change your vote or revoke your proxy is contained in the Proxy Statement.
