Board Matters.

The Corporation shall, effective immediately following the execution and delivery of this Agreement, (i) increase the size of the Board from nine (9) to eleven (11), (ii) and appoint Joseph E. Reece and Stephen R. Sleigh (collectively, the “New Independent Directors,” and individually a “New Independent Director”) to serve as directors of the Corporation, each with a term expiring at the 2026 annual Shareholder Meeting. During the Standstill Period (as defined below), the Board and all applicable committees of the Board shall not increase the size of the Board prior to the expiration of the Standstill Period (as defined below), to more than eleven (11) directors without the prior written consent of the Ancora Parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at the Company’s 2026 annual shareholder meeting, the Company shall take all necessary actions to reduce the size of the Board by one (1) director. In connection therewith, one incumbent member of the Board shall resign or otherwise cease to serve as a director at the conclusion of the 2026 annual shareholder meeting.

The Corporation shall include the New Independent Directors (or any Replacement Director (as defined below) thereof, as applicable) in the Corporation’s slate of nominees for election as directors of the Corporation at the 2026 annual Shareholder Meeting and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the election of the New Independent Directors (or any Replacement Director, as applicable) to the Board at the 2026 annual Shareholder Meeting (including the Board recommending that the Corporation’s shareholders vote in favor of the election of the New Independent Directors (or any Replacement Director, as applicable) in the Corporation’s proxy statement for the 2026 annual Shareholder Meeting and otherwise supporting the New Independent Directors for election in a manner no less rigorous and favorable than the manner in which the Corporation supports its other nominees in the aggregate).

If, during the Standstill Period (as defined below), either New Independent Director resigns from the Board or is rendered unable (due to death or disability) to, or refuses to, serve on the Board, and at all times since the date of this Agreement and at such time the Ancora Parties Beneficially Own in the aggregate at least 1% of the Common Stock, then the Ancora Parties shall have the right to identify a replacement (who shall qualify as “independent” pursuant to the rules of the New York Stock Exchange and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission) to fill the resulting vacancy caused by such New Independent Director’s departure from the Board and any such person shall be promptly appointed to the Board, subject to the good faith review and approval of such person (such approval not to be unreasonably conditioned, withheld or delayed) by the Corporation’s Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and the Board (any such replacement director, a “Replacement Director”); provided that a Replacement Director shall not be an Ancora Party, any Ancora Affiliate (as defined below), or employee of any Ancora Party. Upon a Replacement Director’s appointment to the Board, such Replacement Director shall be deemed to be a New Independent Director for all purposes under this Agreement.

Effective immediately following the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Board and all applicable committees thereof will take such actions as are necessary to form an advisory committee of the Board, to be named the Finance Committee (the “Committee”). The Committee is an advisory committee responsible for making recommendations to the Board regarding the Corporation’s capital allocation strategy and business portfolio. In accordance with Maryland law and the Corporation’s Amended and Restated Bylaws, adopted on December 6, 2022, the Board will cause the Committee to be composed of five (5) members: Joseph E. Reece, Stephen R. Sleigh and three (3) other members of the Board serving on the Board prior to the execution of this Agreement, who will initially be David J. Neithercut, Mark R. Patterson and Rob Bass, with Mr. Neithercut to serve as Chair of the Committee and Mr. Reece to serve as Vice Chair of the Committee. During the Standstill Period, the composition of the Committee shall remain as specified in this Section 1.d. The Committee shall have the resources to discharge its responsibilities, access to the management, personnel and advisors (including outside counsel) of the Company, as necessary or appropriate in furtherance of the Committee’s work, and such management, personnel and advisors shall be directed to provide the Committee any and all information requested by the Committee which relates to or could have an impact upon the Committee’s discharge of its duties.

Effective immediately following the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Board and all applicable committees thereof will take all necessary actions to appoint Mr. Reece to the Investment Committee of the Board and Mr. Sleigh to the Audit Committee of the Board. Without limiting the foregoing, the New Independent Directors shall be given the same consideration for membership to any committees of the Board as any other independent director with similar relevant expertise and qualifications.

While each New Independent Director (and any Replacement Director, as applicable) serves as a director of the Board, he or she shall receive compensation (including equity-based compensation, if any), an annual retainer, and benefits (including expense reimbursements) on the same basis as all other nonemployee directors of the Corporation as determined by the Board.

Concurrent with the execution of this Agreement, the Ancora Parties hereby irrevocably withdraw the Nomination Notice and any related materials or notices.

The New Independent Directors (and any Replacement Director, as applicable) will be subject to the same protections and obligations regarding confidentiality, conflicts of interest, related-party transactions, fiduciary duties (as set forth under Maryland law), codes of conduct, trading and disclosure policies (including the Corporation’s insider trading policy), director resignation policy, stock ownership guidelines and other governance guidelines and policies of the Corporation as other directors, as amended from time to time (collectively, the “Corporation Policies”), and shall have the same rights and benefits, including with respect to insurance, indemnification, compensation and fees, as are applicable to all nonemployee directors of the Corporation. The Corporation shall make available to the New Independent Directors (and any Replacement Director, as applicable) copies of all Corporation Policies not publicly available on the Corporation’s website. At all times while a New Independent Director (and any Replacement Director, as applicable) is serving as a member of the Board, (i) such New Independent Director shall not disclose any confidential information of the Corporation and/or its subsidiaries to any of the Ancora Parties or any “Affiliate” or “Associate” (for purposes of this Agreement, as each is defined in Rule 12b-2 promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) of each Ancora Party (collectively and individually, the “Ancora Affiliates”) and (ii) each Ancora Party shall not, and shall cause the Ancora Affiliates not to, seek to obtain confidential information of the Corporation and/or its subsidiaries from any New Independent Director (or any Replacement Director, as applicable) or other director.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the rights and privileges set forth in this Agreement shall be personal to the Ancora Parties, respectively, and may not be transferred or assigned to any individual, corporation, partnership, limited liability company, joint venture, estate, trust, association, organization or other entity of any kind or nature (each, a “Person”), except that the Ancora Parties shall be permitted to transfer or assign this Agreement to their respective controlled Affiliates, provided that any such transfer or assignment shall not relieve any transferring Ancora Party of its or their obligations under this Agreement.

For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Beneficially Own” or variations thereof shall have the meaning set forth in Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act.

Each Ancora Party shall comply, and shall cause each of its Affiliates to comply, with the terms of this Agreement and shall be responsible for any breach of this Agreement by any such Affiliate.

Mutual Non-Disparagement.

The foregoing shall not prevent the making of any factual statement in any compelled testimony or production of information, either by legal process, subpoena, or as part of a response to a request for information from any governmental authority with purported jurisdiction over the party from whom information is sought.

Director Information. As a condition to each New Independent Director’s (or, if applicable, any Replacement Director’s) nomination to serve on the Board and any subsequent nomination for election as a director at an annual meeting of the Corporation’s shareholders, such New Independent Director will provide any information the Corporation reasonably requires, including information required by the Corporation’s Amended and Restated Bylaws, as then in effect, or to be disclosed in a proxy statement or other filing under applicable law, stock exchange rules or listing standards, information in connection with assessing eligibility, independence and other criteria applicable to directors or satisfying compliance and legal obligations, and will consent to appropriate background checks, to the extent, in each case, consistent with the information and background checks required by the Corporation in accordance with past practice with respect to other members of the Board. If, at any time following the completion of the Corporation’s background review process, the Board learns that any New Independent Director (or any Replacement Director, as applicable) has committed, been indicted or charged with, or made a plea of nolo contendere to, a felony or a misdemeanor involving moral turpitude, deceit, dishonesty or fraud, then the Board may request that such New Independent Director (or Replacement Director, as applicable) to resign from the Board. If, at any time following the execution and delivery of this Agreement, either New Independent Director (or any Replacement Director, as applicable) violates the Corporation Policies, then the Board may request that such New Independent Director to resign from the Board.

Disclosure of this Agreement. The Parties agree that, promptly following the execution of this Agreement, the Corporation will issue a press release (the “Press Release”) announcing this Agreement, substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A. Prior to the issuance of the Press Release, neither the Corporation nor the Ancora Parties shall issue any press release or public announcement regarding this Agreement or take any action that would require public disclosure thereof without the prior written consent of the other Party.
