The declaration and payment of any future dividend, whether fixed, special, or variable, are at the sole discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors. This decision will depend upon several factors, including the Company’s financial position, results of operations, cash flows, capital requirements, business conditions, future expectations, legal requirements, and other relevant factors at the time of consideration. Future dividends are expected to be funded by cash on the Company’s balance sheet.
