Pay Versus Performance
Pay Versus Performance As required by Section 953(a) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K, we are providing the following information about the relationship between executive compensation and certain financial performance of our Company for each of the last three completed calendar years. In determining the “compensation actually paid” to our Named Executive Officers (“NEOs”), we are required to make various adjustments to amounts that have previously been reported in the Summary Compensation Table in previous years, as the SEC’s calculation method for this section differs from those required in the Summary Compensation Table. The disclosure included in this section is prescribed by SEC rules and does not necessarily align with how the Company or the Compensation Committee view the link between the Company’s performance and its Principal Executive Officer (“PEO”) and NEOs pay.
Pay Versus Performance Table
Pay Versus Performance Table The table below presents information on the compensation of our PEO and our other NEOs in comparison to certain performance metrics for 2025, 2024 and 2023. The metrics are not those that the Compensation Committee uses when setting executive compensation. The use of the term “compensation actually paid” (“CAP”) is required by the SEC’s rules. Neither CAP nor the total amount reported in the Summary Compensation Table (“SCT”) reflect the amount of compensation actually paid, earned or received during the applicable year. Per SEC rules, CAP was calculated by adjusting the SCT total values for the applicable year as described in the footnotes to the table.

See the footnotes to the SCT for further detail regarding the amounts in these columns. | | (3) The dollar amounts reported in these columns represent the amounts of “compensation actually paid.” The amounts are computed in accordance with Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K by deducting and adding the following amounts from the “Total” column of the SCT (pursuant to SEC rules, fair value at each measurement date is computed in a manner consistent with the fair value methodology used to account for share-based payments in our consolidated financial statements under GAAP). |

Pay Versus Performance Table
| (a) The amount in these columns represent the grant date fair value of equity-based awards granted during each year. (For this purpose, the fair value of equity awards is computed in a manner consistent with the fair value methodology used to report Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year-End. This may result in a difference in the share value input used for the fair value calculation at year-end when compared to share value used for performance-based share awards at the time of the award). | | (b) The equity award adjustments for each applicable year include the addition (or subtraction, as applicable) of the following: (i) for awards that are granted and vest in the same applicable year, the fair value as of the vesting date; (ii) for awards granted in prior years that vest in the applicable year, the amount equal to the change in fair value as of the vesting date (from the end of the prior fiscal year). | | (c) The equity award adjustments for each applicable year include the addition (or subtraction, as applicable) of the following: (i) the year-end fair value of any equity awards granted in the applicable year that are outstanding and unvested as of the end of the year; (ii) the amount of change in fair value as of the end of the applicable year (from the end of the prior fiscal year) of any awards granted in prior years that are outstanding and unvested as of the end of the applicable year. |
Pay Versus Performance Table
| (4) Our non-PEO named executive officers included Mahmud Haq for 2023, 2024 and 2025, Bill Korn through October 6, 2023, Stephen Snyder from May 1, 2024 to December 31, 2024, Norman Roth for 2024 and 2025 and Crystal Williams for 2025. The dollar amounts reported in this column represent the average of the amounts reported for the Company’s NEOs as a group in the “Total” column of the Summary Compensation Table in each applicable year. See note (3) above. | | (5) The dollar amounts reported in this column represent the average amount of CAP to the NEOs as a group, as computed in accordance with the Pay Versus Performance Rules. They do not reflect the actual average amount of compensation earned by or paid to the NEOs as a group during the applicable year. | | (6) Cumulative total shareholder return (“TSR”) is calculated by dividing the difference between the Company’s share price at the end (December 31, 2025) and the beginning (January 1, 2023) of the measurement period by the Company’s share price at the beginning of the measurement period. There were no dividends for the Common Stock. | | (7) The dollar amounts reported represent the amount of net income (loss) reflected in the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the applicable year. While the Company does not use net income (loss) as a performance measure in its executive compensation program, the measure of net income (loss) is correlated with the measure adjusted EBITDA (a non-GAAP measure) which the Company does use when setting goals in the Company’s incentive compensation program. |
Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year-End 2025
Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year-End 2025 There were no outstanding equity awards for our named executive officers at December 31, 2025.
