The substantial time and resources dedicated to the refinancing negotiations by the Company&#8217;s management and financial staff has directly impacted the Company&#8217;s ability to properly prepare and timely file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended October 1, 2022 (the &#8220;Third Quarter Form 10-Q&#8221;). As a result, the Company is unable, without unreasonable effort or expense, to file its Third Quarter Form 10-Q within the prescribed time period. However, the Company plans to file its Third Quarter Form 10-Q no later than November 15, 2022, as prescribed in Rule 12b-25.</font></div><div><font><br></font></div><div style="text-align:center"><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:700;line-height:112%">PART IV &#8212; OTHER INFORMATION</font></div><div><font><br></font></div><div><table style="border-collapse:collapse;display:inline-table;margin-bottom:5pt;vertical-align:text-bottom;width:97.596%"><tr><td style="width:1.0%"></td><td style="width:4.647%"></td><td style="width:0.1%"></td><td style="width:0.1%"></td><td style="width:1.113%"></td><td style="width:0.1%"></td><td style="width:0.1%"></td><td style="width:1.113%"></td><td style="width:0.1%"></td><td style="width:1.0%"></td><td style="width:23.037%"></td><td style="width:0.1%"></td><td style="width:0.1%"></td><td style="width:1.113%"></td><td style="width:0.1%"></td><td style="width:0.1%"></td><td style="width:2.427%"></td><td style="width:0.1%"></td><td style="width:0.1%"></td><td style="width:1.113%"></td><td style="width:0.1%"></td><td style="width:1.0%"></td><td style="width:29.770%"></td><td style="width:0.1%"></td><td style="width:0.1%"></td><td style="width:1.113%"></td><td style="width:0.1%"></td><td style="width:0.1%"></td><td style="width:2.427%"></td><td style="width:0.1%"></td><td style="width:0.1%"></td><td style="width:1.113%"></td><td style="width:0.1%"></td><td style="width:1.0%"></td><td style="width:25.014%"></td><td style="width:0.1%"></td></tr><tr style="height:15pt"><td colspan="3" style="padding:0 1pt"></td><td colspan="3" style="padding:0 1pt"></td><td colspan="3" style="padding:0 1pt"></td><td colspan="3" style="padding:0 1pt"></td><td colspan="3" style="padding:0 1pt"></td><td colspan="3" style="padding:0 1pt"></td><td colspan="3" style="padding:0 1pt"></td><td colspan="3" style="padding:0 1pt"></td><td colspan="3" style="padding:0 1pt"></td><td colspan="3" style="padding:0 1pt"></td><td colspan="3" style="padding:0 1pt"></td><td colspan="3" style="padding:0 1pt"></td></tr><tr><td colspan="3" style="padding:2px 1pt;text-align:left;vertical-align:top"><div><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:107%">(1)</font></div></td><td colspan="3" style="padding:0 1pt"></td><td colspan="3" style="padding:0 1pt"></td><td colspan="27" style="padding:2px 1pt;text-align:left;vertical-align:top"><div><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:107%">Name and telephone number of person to contact in regard to this notification</font></div></td></tr><tr style="height:15pt"><td colspan="3" style="padding:0 1pt"></td><td colspan="3" style="padding:0 1pt"></td><td colspan="6" style="padding:0 1pt"></td><td colspan="6" style="padding:0 1pt"></td><td colspan="6" style="padding:0 1pt"></td><td colspan="6" style="padding:0 1pt"></td><td colspan="6" style="padding:0 1pt"></td></tr><tr><td colspan="3" style="padding:0 1pt"></td><td colspan="3" style="padding:0 1pt"></td><td colspan="3" style="padding:0 1pt"></td><td colspan="3" style="padding:2px 1pt;text-align:left;vertical-align:top"><div style="text-align:center"><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:107%">David C.
