On June 24, 2024, the Company filed a Current Report on Form 8-K announcing that on May 20, 2024, the partners and professional staff of KMJ Corbin & Company LLP ("KMJ"), which was engaged as the independent registered public accounting firm of the Company, joined Crowe LLP ("Crowe"). As a result, KMJ resigned as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm on June 18, 2024, and the Audit Committee of the Company's Board of Directors approved the appointment of Crowe as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for the Company's fiscal year ending December 31, 2024.
