Maine Letter to Stockholders: Authorization and Sale of Preferred Stock and Stock Transfer Restriction to Protect Tax Benefits Dear Stockholders, We are pleased to announce an important development regarding the authorization and sale of preferred stock and the implementation of stock transfer restrictions aimed at protecting valuable tax benefits for our company. This letter aims to provide you with a detailed description of these initiatives. Authorization and Sale of Preferred Stock: In order to strengthen our financial position and explore new growth opportunities, our board of directors has approved the authorization and sale of preferred stock. This strategic decision allows us to access additional capital, enhance liquidity, and improve our ability to meet our financial obligations. Furthermore, with this issuance, our company can potentially attract new investors and fund future projects. The preferred stock offering is structured to provide investors with certain advantages compared to common stockholders, such as a fixed dividend rate, priority in case of liquidation, and potentially higher voting rights. Please note that the issuance of preferred stock does not impact the rights and privileges of our existing common stockholders. The authorization and sale of preferred stock will be conducted in accordance with applicable state and federal laws, regulations, and guidelines. We have engaged competent financial advisors and legal counsel to ensure the smooth execution of this process in compliance with all regulatory requirements. Stock Transfer Restriction to Protect Tax Benefits: To safeguard valuable tax benefits that we have secured, our company has implemented a stock transfer restriction. The purpose of this restriction is to prevent any ownership changes in our stock that could potentially jeopardize our ability to utilize certain favorable tax provisions. The stock transfer restriction prohibits any transfer of company stock that would result in an ownership change, as defined under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code. An ownership change occurs when there is an increase in the percentage ownership of certain stockholders over a specified threshold within a three-year period. By implementing this restriction, we aim to protect the tax attributes that contribute to our financial strength and competitiveness. Please be assured that this stock transfer restriction does not limit or impede your ability to manage or trade freely your shares, as long as it does not trigger an ownership change as described above. The restriction is applied on a case-by-case basis when potential transfers could potentially lead to an ownership change. Summary: In summary, our board of directors has authorized the sale of preferred stock to enhance our financial position and explore growth opportunities. At the same time, we have implemented a stock transfer restriction to protect the valuable tax benefits we have secured. These initiatives demonstrate our commitment to the long-term success and sustainability of our company. Should you have any questions or concerns regarding these developments, we encourage you to contact our investor relations department, who will be happy to provide further clarification. Thank you for your continued support and investment in our company.
