(1)	On February 10, 2026, the Company granted Mr. Vilade 150,000 restricted stock units (RSUs) with tandem dividend equivalent rights under the Company's 2020 Omnibus Incentive Plan. The RSUs granted will vest in four tranches of 37,500 each upon the date the Board of Directors determines that the applicable performance condition has been achieved: (i) the Company's common stock achieves a 10-day Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) of $6.50 or achievement of 2026 Company annual bonus plan targets (at 100%); (ii) the common stock achieves a 10-day VWAP of $7.50 or achievement of 2027 Company annual bonus plan targets (at 100%); (iii) the common stock achieves a 10-day VWAP of $9.50 or achievement of 2028 Company annual bonus plan targets (at 100%); and (iv) the common stock achieves a 10-day VWAP of $11.50 or achievement of 2029 Company annual bonus plan targets (at 100%). Any RSUs not earned by January 31, 2030, will be cancelled.
