Copies of the Postcard Notice, which directed recipients to the Notice, which included the proposed Plan of Allocation, were mailed to more than 147,000 potential Settlement Class Members and nominees. Pursuant to and in compliance with Rule 23 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, the Court hereby finds and concludes that due and adequate notice was directed to Persons who are Settlement Class Members who could be identified with reasonable effort, advising them of the proposed Plan of Allocation, and of their right to object thereto, and a full and fair opportunity was accorded to Persons who are Settlement Class Members to be heard with respect to the Plan of Allocation. There were no objections to the Plan of Allocation. 18. The Court hereby finds and concludes that the Plan of Allocation for the calculation of the claims of claimants and distribution of the Net Settlement Fund, which was set forth in the Notice disseminated to Settlement Class Members, provides a fair and reasonable basis upon which to allocate the Net Settlement Fund among eligible Settlement Class Members. The Court hereby approves the Plan of Allocation. 19. The Court’s approval of the Plan of Allocation is a matter separate and distinct from approval of the Settlement and shall in no way disturb or affect the finality of the other aspects of this Judgment with respect to the Settlement. 9 Case 1:23-cv-10645-JMF Document 149 Filed 10/10/25 Page 10 of 12 Co-Lead Counsel’s Fee and Expense Application 20. Notice of Co-Lead Counsel’s motion for an award of attorneys’ fees and payment of Litigation Expenses was given to all Settlement Class Members who could be identified with reasonable effort. The form and method of notifying the Settlement Class of the motion for an award of attorneys’ fees and payment of Litigation Expenses satisfied the notice requirements of Rule 23 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, the United States Constitution (including the Due Process Clause), and Section 21D(a)(7) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, 15 U.S.C. §78u- 4(a)(7), as amended by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995; constituted the best notice practicable under the circumstances; and constituted due, adequate, and sufficient notice to all Persons entitled thereto. 21.

The award of attorneys’ fees and Litigation Expenses may be paid to Plaintiffs’ Counsel from the Settlement Fund immediately upon entry of this Judgment, subject to the terms, conditions, and obligations of the Stipulation, which terms, conditions, and obligations are incorporated herein. 23. In making this award of attorneys’ fees and payment of Litigation Expenses to be paid from the Settlement Fund, the Court has found that: (a) The Settlement has created a common fund of $2,750,000 in cash and that numerous Settlement Class Members who submit acceptable Claim Forms will benefit from the Settlement created by the efforts of Plaintiffs’ Counsel; 10 Case 1:23-cv-10645-JMF Document 149 Filed 10/10/25 Page 11 of 12 (b) The fee sought by Co-Lead Counsel has been reviewed and approved as reasonable by Co-Lead Plaintiffs, who oversaw the prosecution and resolution of the Action; (c) Plaintiffs’ Counsel undertook the Action on a contingent basis, and have received no compensation during the Action, and any fee and expense award has been contingent on the result achieved; (d) The Action involves complex factual and legal issues and, in the absence of settlement, would involve lengthy proceedings whose resolution would be uncertain; (e) Plaintiffs’ Counsel conducted the Action and achieved the Settlement with skillful and diligent advocacy; (f) Plaintiffs’ Counsel have devoted 1,666.99 hours, with a lodestar value of $1,743,054.60, to achieve the Settlement; (g) The amount of attorneys’ fees awarded and Litigation Expenses to be paid from the Settlement Fund are fair and reasonable and consistent with awards made within this District; and (h) Public policy concerns favor the award of attorneys’ fees and expenses in securities class action litigation. 24. Co-Lead Plaintiff Sashi Rajan is hereby awarded $7,500 from the Settlement Fund as reimbursement for his reasonable costs and expenses directly related to his representation of the Settlement Class, pursuant to §21D(a)(4) of the PSLRA, 15 U.S.C. §78u-4(a)(4). 25.

The Court’s approval of the Fee and Expense Application is a matter separate and distinct from approval of the Settlement and shall in no way disturb or affect the finality of this Judgment with respect to the Settlement. 27. The Parties are to bear their own costs, except as otherwise provided herein or in the Stipulation. 28. Retention of Jurisdiction. Without affecting the finality of this Judgment in any way, this Court hereby retains continuing jurisdiction over: (i) implementation of the Settlement; (ii) the allowance, disallowance, or adjustment of any Settlement Class Member’s claim on equitable grounds and any award or distribution of the Settlement Fund; (iii) disposition of the Settlement Fund; (iv) any applications for attorneys’ fees, costs, interest, and payment of Litigation Expenses in the Action; (v) all Parties for the purpose of construing, enforcing and administering the Settlement and this Judgment; and (vi) other matters related or ancillary to the foregoing. 29.
