As stated in the rules of conduct, we ask that you restrict any questions to the items on the meeting agenda. Please note that any questions submitted during the meeting will be answered later in the meeting after the formal business portion of the meeting has concluded. Thank you for your cooperation with these rules. It is now time to begin the formal part of the meeting. As noted in the notice and proxy statement previously furnished to you, the record date for stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting was the close of business on March 20, 2025. We believe that the total number of shares of the company, which are held by holders of record now present at the meeting, either in person or by proxy, is sufficient to declare that we have a quorum. Such determination is subject to verification by the inspector of elections. The next order of business to come before this meeting is a description of the matters properly brought before today's meeting. As you are aware, proposals and director nominations for the company's stockholders in order to be properly brought before the meeting must have been submitted by December 1, 2024. No stockholder proposals or nominations were properly submitted, which means that only proposals and nominations properly before this meeting are those submitted by the Board. Voting on the proposals will commence after all proposals have been presented. The first proposal before the stockholders of the company is the election of 5 directors for 1 year terms expiring upon the election and qualification of Directors at the company's 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. The Board of Directors of the company has recommended the election of John Albright, Rachel Elias Wein, Carson Good, Andrew Richardson and Brenna Wadleigh to the Board. These 5 individuals are the only persons who have been nominated to stand for election to the 5 positions on our Board of Directors. No other nominations were made in compliance with the company's bylaws. Accordingly, all nominations are closed. We will now move to proposal 2. The second proposal before the stockholders of the company is an advisory vote to approve executive compensation described on Page 32 of the proxy statement. We will now move on to proposal 3. The third proposal before the stockholders of the company is an advisory vote on the frequency of the advisory vote to approve executive compensation described on Page 33 of the proxy statement. We will now move to proposal 4. The fourth proposal before the stockholders of the company is the ratification of the appointment of our Audit Committee of Grant Thornton by our Audit Committee of Grant Thornton as the company's independent registered public accounting firm for fiscal year 2025, which is described on Page 33 of the proxy statement. The next order of business is a vote on the proposals. It is currently 3:06 p.m. Eastern time, and I declare the voting open. Stockholders who logged in to the virtual meeting portal using their unique 15-digit control number may vote their shares during the meeting. In addition, prior to today's meeting, voting on the proposals was conducted by proxy via mail, phone and Internet. [Voting]

It's currently 3:07 p.m. Eastern Time, and I hereby declare the voting closed. The inspector of election will now count the votes. Will the Secretary please report the results of the voting?
