+Added: CEO Pay Ratio
+Added: As required by Section 953(b) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, and Item 402(u) of Regulation S-K, we are providing the following information about the relationship of the median annual total compensation of our employees and the annual total compensation of Dr.
+Added: Davidson, our Chief Executive Officer.
+Added: As permitted by Item 402(u) of Regulation S-K, we may identify the median employee once every three years unless there has been a change in our employee population or employee compensation arrangements that we reasonably believe would result in a significant change in pay ratio disclosure.
+Added: The pay ratio included in this section is calculated in a manner consistent with Item 402(u) of Regulation S-K.
+Added: • For 2025, the median of the annual total compensation of all employees (other than Dr.
+Added: Davidson) was determined to be $704,848.
+Added: • For 2025, the annual total compensation of Dr.
+Added: Davidson, as reported in the Summary Compensation Table, was $13,641,854.
+Added: Based on this information, the ratio of the median of the annual total compensation of all employees (other than Dr.
+Added: Davidson) to the annual total compensation of Dr.
+Added: Davidson was 1 to 19.35.
+Added: To identify the median of the annual total compensation of all of our employees (other than Dr.
+Added: Davidson), as well as to determine the annual total compensation of our median employee, we took the following steps:
+Added: We determined that, as of December 31, 2025, our employee population, excluding Dr.
+Added: Davidson, consisted of approximately 99 individuals.
+Added: This population consisted of our full-time and part-time employees and, as permitted by SEC rules, excluded independent contractors or similar non-employee workers during 2025.
+Added: We did not exclude any non-US employees from these calculations.
+Added: To identify the “median employee” from our employee population, we compared the sum of each employee’s wages, aggregate fair value of equity awards, and target cash bonus for 2025.
+Added: In doing so, we annualized the salary and target cash bonus of all permanent employees who were hired in 2025 but did not work for us the entire fiscal year.
+Added: The grant date fair value of option and restricted share unit awards granted during 2025 was calculated using the Black-Scholes valuation model pursuant to the assumptions described in Note 10, “Share-Based Compensation” of the consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report.
+Added: We did not make any cost-of-living adjustments in identifying the median employee.
+Added: After identifying the median employee, we calculated annual total compensation for the employee using the same methodology we use for our NEOs, as set forth in the Summary Compensation Table.
+Added: This process resulted in a median employee with annual total compensation of $704,848 for 2025.
+Added: The SEC’s rules for identifying the median employee and calculating the pay ratio based on that employee’s annual total compensation allow companies to adopt a variety of methodologies, to apply certain exclusions, and to make reasonable estimates and assumptions that reflect their employee populations and compensation practices.
+Added: As a result, the pay ratios reported by other companies may not be comparable to our pay ratio, reported above, as other companies have different employee populations and compensation practices and may utilize different methodologies, exclusions, estimates, and assumptions in calculating their own pay ratios.
