Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. I'm Jim Miller, Chairman of the LivePerson Board. It's 10:00 A.M., and the 2026 LivePerson special meeting of the stockholders will now come to order. We want to welcome you and express our thanks for your attendance at this virtual meeting. You should be able to see the agenda for this meeting on your computer screen, which is shown in the definitive proxy statement approved by the Board. In addition, you should be able to see a link to our meeting procedure on the meeting website. Also present at this special meeting are John Collins, our Chief Financial Officer and Chief Operating Officer, Jon Perachio, our Vice President of Investor Relations, Thomas McLoughlin from BDO, our independent registered public accounting firm, Chris Celentano of Fried Frank, outside legal counsel to LivePerson, and Cheryl Niebling of the Tardito Group, which is serving as the inspector of elections. Cheryl Niebling has been appointed Inspector of Elections to examine and tabulate proxies and ballots at this meeting. I'll now hand it over to Jon Perachio to make some procedural points. Thanks, Jim. First, please note that we are recording this meeting, and you'll be able to replay a recording of it from the virtual shareholder meeting website, which is virtualshareholdermeeting.com/lpsn2026sm. Please wait a day or so to allow the recording to be uploaded. Second, you can use the question box on the screen to submit questions at any time during the meeting. We cannot guarantee that we'll answer all questions. If we do not get to your question, you're welcome to ask it by emailing ir-lp@liveperson.com. Third, you can vote during this meeting at any time from the beginning of the meeting through presentation of the proposals until we close the polls. However, if you have already voted in advance by using an online ballot, voting by phone, or using a physical proxy card, a vote at this meeting will supersede your earlier vote. If you have already voted, you do not need to vote again unless you wish to change your vote. Fourth, in the event of any technical difficulties before the formal adjournment of the meeting, we may temporarily adjourn and reconvene. The meeting will proceed as follows. First, we'll discuss, move, and second the matters to be acted upon by the stockholders as described in the notice of special meeting. After all matters have been discussed, the actual vote on each matter will then occur. You may vote by going to virtualshareholdermeeting.com/lpsn2026sm and logging in using your control number found on your proxy card or voting instruction form and following the instructions available on the meeting website. During the tabulation of the vote, stockholders may submit questions by following the instructions available on the meeting website. Finally, the results of the vote will be announced, and the meeting will be adjourned. We ask that you respect the rules of the meeting, which have been made available on the meeting website. John Collins will now conduct a special meeting as it relates to the proposals to be voted upon by the shareholders. Stockholders, pardon me. Thanks, Jim. All stockholders of record at the close of business on July 6th, 2026, were given notice of the meeting by United States Mail on or about July 9th, 2026, and I have, for the inclusion of the record of this meeting, an affidavit from Broadridge Financial Solutions to that effect. There is also accessible on the virtual meeting website during this meeting, a true and complete list of stockholders entitled to vote at this meeting. The list contains the name and addresses of each stockholder entitled to vote at the meeting and the number of shares registered in the name of each stockholder of record at the close of business on July 6th, 2026. This list has been available for the 10 days prior to the meeting on the virtual meeting website. The company has appointed Cheryl Niebling to act as the Inspector of Election at this meeting to count and certify all stockholder votes. Cheryl Niebling has taken the oath of Inspector of Election, which was delivered to me before this meeting. As of the close of business on July 6th, 2026, the record date for this meeting, the number of shares of stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote at the meeting was 12,332,427. The presence, virtually or by proxy, of the holders of 33.3% of the number of shares of stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote at the meeting is necessary to constitute a quorum in connection with the transaction of business at this meeting. The preliminary report of the Inspector of Elections is that at least 33.3% of the total number of shares issued and outstanding and entitled to vote are present virtually or by proxy at this meeting. Consequently, we have a quorum present virtually or by proxy for purposes of conducting business at this meeting. A quorum being present, this meeting is declared open to proceed with its business. Now, we will move to the formal business of the meeting. Detailed information concerning the items of business is contained in the proxy statement. Please note that the recording of this meeting is prohibited. Additional rules of conduct and procedures are posted on the virtual meeting website. It is now 10:05 A.M. Eastern Time, and the polls are open. I will state each proposal to be considered and voted on by stockholders in order. The first matter to be acted upon today is a proposal to adopt the amended and restated merger agreement, dated July 2, 2026, among LivePerson, SoundHound.AI, Lightspeed Merger 1, and Lightspeed Merger 2, and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the first merger and the second merger, referred to as the merger proposal. Are there any questions regarding this proposal? There are no questions. There being no questions, a motion on the proposal is now in order. I move that the merger proposal be approved. I second the motion. Next, we will consider a proposal to approve, on a non-binding advisory basis, certain compensation that may be paid or become payable to LivePerson's named Executive officers in connection with the merger, referred to as the non-binding compensation advisory proposal. Are there any questions regarding this proposal? There are no questions. There being no questions, a motion on the proposal is now in order. I move that the non-binding compensation advisory proposal be approved. I second the motion. Because there are sufficient votes to approve the merger proposal, the company does not intend to call a vote on the adjournment proposal, and the adjournment proposal will not be presented at this meeting. For the reasons set forth in the proxy statement, the company's Board of Directors recommends that you vote for the merger proposal and for the non-binding compensation advisory proposal. We'll now proceed to vote on the previously discussed proposals. It is not necessary for you to vote by ballot if you've already sent in your proxy, unless you wish to change your vote. You must be a record holder to vote at this meeting. If you're a beneficial owner, in other words, if your shares are held through a brokerage in street name, you can vote at this meeting only if you've obtained a valid legal proxy to vote specified shares from your broker, bank, or other nominee who holds your shares as a record holder. If you are entitled to vote at this virtual meeting and you wish to vote at this time, please click the button on your computer screen labeled Vote Here. While the Inspector of Elections completes the tabulation of the votes, we'll be happy to take any questions. There are no questions. I will be closing the polls momentarily. If any stockholder has not already voted or wants to change your vote, please do so at this time. I will pause for a brief moment to allow any last votes to be submitted. There being no questions posed, and now that everyone has had the opportunity to vote, I declare the polls closed. I will turn the meeting back over to Jim Miller, who will report on the results of the stockholder vote. According to the report of the Inspector of Elections, each proposal presented at this meeting has been approved. First, the merger proposal has been approved. Second, the non-binding compensation advisory proposal has been approved. The adjournment proposal was not presented because there were sufficient votes at the time of the special meeting to approve the merger proposal. The Inspector of Elections will execute a certificate as to the results of the voting, and the certificate will be filed in the minute books of the company, along with the minutes of this meeting. The final voting results will be reported in a current report on Form 8-K within four business days after this meeting. The matters for which this meeting was called to consider have been completed. There is no other business to come before the meeting. May I have a motion that the meeting be adjourned? I move that the meeting be adjourned. I second the motion. Upon motion duly made and seconded, this meeting is hereby adjourned. Thank you very much for joining this morning.
