The ESPP would reserve 1,200,000 shares of common stock, about 0.5% of the 240,293,104 shares outstanding as of March 23, 2026, allowing eligible employees to buy shares via payroll deductions at a discount, intended to qualify under Section 423 of the tax code.

It also details governance practices, committee structures, related‑party loans that were repaid in 2025, and 2025 director and executive pay.
