PROXY STATEMENT

Annual Meeting of Stockholders to be Held on June 11, 2026

This Proxy Statement is furnished in connection with the solicitation by the Board of Directors of ImmuCell Corporation (the Company), a Delaware corporation, of proxies to be voted at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders of the Company to be held at 9:30 AM ET on Thursday, June 11, 2026 remotely via a live audio webcast and telephone conference call, and any and all adjournments thereof, for the purposes set forth in the accompanying Notice of Annual Meeting of Stockholders. This Proxy Statement and the enclosed proxy card are first being given or sent to stockholders on or about April [•], 2026. Stockholders who execute proxies may revoke them at any time before exercise thereof.

VOTING OF OUTSTANDING COMMON STOCK

Only stockholders of record at the close of business on Monday, April 13, 2026, the record date, are entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Annual Meeting of Stockholders and at any adjournments thereof. As of such date, there were [•] shares of common stock of the Company issued and outstanding. Each share is entitled to one vote with respect to all matters to be acted upon at the meeting. The holders of one-third of the shares of the Company's common stock outstanding and entitled to vote, represented at the meeting in person (during the live audio webcast and telephone conference call) or by proxy, shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business. Votes cast in person (during the live audio webcast meeting via the telephone conference call link) or by proxy at the meeting will be tabulated by the voting inspector appointed for the meeting.

Our Board of Directors is asking for your proxy. Giving us your proxy means that you authorize the persons named in that proxy to vote your shares at the Annual Meeting in the manner that you direct, or to the extent you do not direct us in your signed proxy, in the manner recommended by the Board of Directors in this Proxy Statement. You can vote for the director nominees or withhold your vote for any or all nominees. You also can vote for or against the other proposals or abstain from voting. If you request a proxy card, and return your signed proxy card, but do not give voting instructions, the shares represented by that proxy will be voted FOR each proposal.

With regard to Proposal One, votes may be cast in favor or withheld. The nominees for director receiving a plurality of the votes cast by the holders of the common stock represented at the meeting in person or by proxy will be elected. This means that the seven nominees receiving the largest number of votes cast will be elected.

With respect to Proposal Two, the Company is providing you with the opportunity to vote to approve, on a non-binding, advisory basis, the compensation of the executive officers named in the "SUMMARY COMPENSATION TABLE" of this Proxy Statement, as disclosed in accordance with the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). This proposal, which is commonly referred to as "say-on-pay", is required by Section 14A to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (Exchange Act). Abstentions and votes against may be specified on this proposal. The approval of Proposal Two requires the approval of the holders of a majority of the shares of the Company's common stock represented and voted at the meeting. Abstentions are counted as shares present or represented and voting and have the effect of a vote against. Broker non-votes are not counted as shares entitled to be voted on the matter and have no impact on the vote.

With respect to Proposal Three, the Company is providing you with the opportunity to vote to approve the Company's 2025 Stock Option and Incentive Plan. Abstentions and votes against may be specified on this proposal. The approval of Proposal Three requires the approval of the holders of a majority of the shares of the Company's common stock represented and voted at the meeting. Abstentions are counted as shares present or represented and voting and thus have the effect of a vote against. Broker non-votes are not counted as shares entitled to be voted on the matter and have no impact on the vote.

With respect to Proposal Four, the Company is providing you with the opportunity to vote to approve an amendment to the Company's Certificate of Incorporation. Abstentions and votes against may be specified on this proposal. The approval of Proposal Four requires the approval of the affirmative vote of holders of a majority of the Company's outstanding shares. Abstentions and broker non-votes have the effect of a vote against.

With respect to Proposal Five, the Company is providing you with the opportunity to ratify the appointment of our Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm. Abstentions and votes against may be specified on this proposal. The approval of Proposal Five requires the approval of the holders of a majority of the shares of the Company's common stock represented and voted at the meeting. Brokers and other record holders have discretion to vote on this proposal in the absence of written instructions from the beneficial holder of shares. Since the ratification of Proposal Five requires the approval of the holders of a majority of the shares of the Company's common stock represented at the meeting, abstentions and votes against will have the effect of a negative vote.

Because a plurality of votes cast will be used to determine the results of the election of directors (Proposal One), abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of the votes on Proposal One. Abstentions and broker non-votes do, however, count as shares present at the Annual Meeting and thus are counted towards establishing a quorum. Under New York Stock Exchange Rules, brokers are not allowed to vote their customers' shares on certain "non-discretionary" proposals (Proposals One, Two, Three and Four) without voting instructions from the customer. If you hold your shares in street name and do not provide voting instructions to your bank, broker or other custodian, your shares will not be voted on Proposals One, Two, Three or Four (a "broker non-vote").

How to Vote: Approximately [•] of our stockholders hold their shares "in street name" through a stockbroker, bank, trustee, or other nominee (and thereby treated as a "beneficial owner" of the shares), and approximately [•] of our stockholders hold their shares directly in their own name (and thus are treated as a "stockholder of record"). As summarized below, there are some distinctions between shares held beneficially and those owned of record.

Beneficial Owner: If your shares are held in a stock brokerage account or by a bank, broker, trustee, or other nominee, you are a beneficial owner and the bank, broker, trustee or other nominee is the stockholder of record for those shares. As a beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your bank, broker, trustee or other nominee how to vote your shares and you are invited to attend the meeting. If you do not give instructions to your bank, brokerage firm, trustee or other nominee, they will not be allowed to vote your shares with respect to certain "non-discretionary" proposals, but will be able to vote your shares only with respect to certain "discretionary" proposals. Of the five proposals listed in the Notice of Meeting, only the fifth one (ratification of the appointment of our Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm) is considered "discretionary." Thus, your bank, broker, trustee or other nominee will not be able to vote on the other four proposals unless you give them voting instructions in a timely manner.

Alternatively, as a beneficial owner you may vote in person during the live audio webcast meeting via the telephone conference, but only if you obtain a legal proxy from your bank, broker, trustee or nominee that transfers voting authority to you for the meeting. To vote in person during the meeting as a beneficial owner: (1) Request a legal proxy from your bank, broker, trustee, or nominee well in advance of the meeting which authorizes you to vote your shares at the virtual meeting; without such a legal proxy, you will not be able to vote in person during the meeting ; and (2) Provide any meeting access and verification information required and contact the Voting Inspector in advance at (207) 878-2770 Ext. 0 or [email protected] to confirm your ability to vote during the meeting.

Stockholder of Record: If your shares are registered directly in your name with ImmuCell's transfer agent, Equiniti Trust Company LLC, you are considered the stockholder of record of those shares. As the stockholder of record, you have the right to grant your voting proxy directly to the Company or to vote in person at the live audio webcast meeting via the telephone conference call link.

You can revoke your proxy before it is voted by: (i) submitting a valid new proxy with a later date, (ii) providing written notice to the Company's Secretary before or at the 2026 Annual Meeting prior to the voting on any proposal, if you are a record holder of ImmuCell shares; or (iii) by voting in person in accordance with the instructions above. The last vote you submit chronologically (by any means) will supersede your prior vote(s). Your attendance at the at the live audio webcast of the 2026 Annual Meeting will not, by itself, revoke your proxy.

Voting Results: The preliminary voting results will be announced at the meeting. The final voting results will be tallied by the voting inspector and reported in a Current Report on Form 8-K, which will be filed with the SEC within four business days after the meeting.

EXPENSES AND SOLICITATION

The cost of preparing, assembling, and mailing the proxy material and of reimbursing banks, brokers, nominees and fiduciaries for the out-of-pocket and clerical expenses of transmitting copies of the proxy material to the beneficial owners of shares held of record by such persons will be borne by the Company. Although the Company reserves the right to do so, the Company does not currently intend to solicit proxies otherwise than by use of the mail, but certain officers, employees and advisors of the Company, without additional compensation, may use their personal efforts, by telephone or otherwise, to obtain proxies.

STOCKHOLDER PROPOSALS, DIRECTOR NOMINATIONS AND COMMUNICATIONS

Under the Company's By-laws, proposals (other than director nominations, which are addressed in the following paragraph) of stockholders of the Company intended to be presented at an Annual Meeting of Stockholders must be received by the Secretary of the Company not less than 60 days nor more than 90 days prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year's Annual Meeting of Stockholders. For the 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders this meant not earlier than March 14, 2026 and not later than April 13, 2026. No such proposals were received by the Company on a timely basis for inclusion in the Company's Proxy Statement or form of proxy relating to the 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

The Nominating Committee of the Board of Directors will consider nominees for director recommended by stockholders, applying the same evaluation standards as it would apply to candidates identified by management, other members of the Board of Directors or the Nominating Committee. Recommendations for director nominees may be sent to the Nominating Committee through the Secretary of the Company. Under the advance notice provisions in the Company's By-laws, stockholders intending to formally nominate a person for election as a director at the Annual Meeting, as distinguished from recommending a candidate to the Nominating Committee, must notify the Nominating Committee through the Secretary of the Company in writing of this intent not less than 60 nor more than 90 days prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year's Annual Meeting and meet other requirements set forth in the By-laws. No such nomination by stockholders was received by the Secretary of the Company for consideration in connection with the 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. A copy of the relevant provisions of the By-laws governing stockholders proposals and nominees will be sent to any stockholder who requests these in writing. Such requests should be addressed to the Secretary of the Company.

Stockholders who wish to send communications to the Board of Directors for any reason may do so by mail sent to ImmuCell Corporation, 56 Evergreen Drive, Portland, Maine 04103, Attention: Secretary. The Secretary is responsible for bringing any such communications to the attention of the full Board of Directors at its next regularly scheduled meeting, which is generally quarterly. Additionally, after adjournment of the formal business matters at each year's Annual Meeting, there is an opportunity for stockholders to communicate directly with the Company's management and directors. All then-sitting directors attended the 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders virtually, and the Company anticipates that all current directors nominated for re-election likewise plan to attend the 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders virtually.

All shares represented by proxies in the form enclosed herewith will be voted at the meeting (and any adjournments thereof) in accordance with the terms of such proxies and the pertinent statements included herein relative to the exercise of the power granted by said proxies, provided such proxies appear to be valid and executed by stockholders of record entitled to vote thereat and have not previously been revoked. A proxy may be revoked at any time prior to its exercise by the filing with the Secretary of the Company of an instrument revoking such proxy or a duly executed proxy bearing a later date. A stockholder's proxy will not be voted if the stockholder attends the virtual meeting and elects to vote in person (during the live audio webcast via the telephone conference link). Where the person solicited specifies in his, her or its proxy a choice with respect to any matter to be acted upon, the shares will be voted in accordance with the specification so made. If a stockholder does not so specify with respect to such proposals, the proxy will be voted FOR the election of the nominees listed in Proposal One, FOR the advisory vote to approve executive compensation outlined in Proposal Two, FOR the vote to approve the 2025 Stock Option and Incentive Plan outlined in Proposal Three, FOR the amendment to the Company's Certificate of Incorporation outlined in Proposal Four and FOR the ratification of the appointment of the Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm described in Proposal Five. The enclosed form of proxy authorizes the proxy holders to vote in their discretion on such other business as may properly come before the meeting and incident to the conduct of the meeting, including to approve any adjournment recommended by the meeting Chair or Voting Inspector for up to 20 days to collect additional votes from stockholders.

LEADERSHIP STRUCTURE OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

With approval from the Board of Directors, the Compensation and Stock Option Committee determined that as a matter of policy the President and CEO should not also hold the title of Board Chair. The objective of this policy is to avoid a concentration of authority in any one person. Effective November 1, 2025, the Company hired Mr. Paul Olivier te Boekhorst to serve as its President and CEO, succeeding Mr. Michael F. Brigham who retired from such position after having served in that position since February of 2000. Since February of 2013, Dr. David S. Tomsche has served as Chair of the Board of Directors, leading the Company as its independent non-executive board chair. Dr. Tomsche works with the CEO in preparing the agenda for each board meeting and presides over all board meetings and meetings of the non-employee directors. He provides advice to the CEO and serves as principal liaison between the board and the CEO. It is the policy of the Board of Directors to have a portion of the meeting without the presence of the executive officers each time that the board or any of its committees meets to assure that candid discussions of business matters are conducted with and without the influence of the executive officers. The board delegates certain authority and responsibility to its committees, as described below.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND ITS COMMITTEES

During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Board of Directors of the Company held four regular meetings and one special meeting and took action by unanimous written consent nine times. The committees of the Board of Directors are the Audit Committee, the Compensation and Stock Option Committee, the Nominating Committee, and the Strategy & Technology Committee (established in April 2026). During the year ended December 31, 2025, each director attended at least 75 percent of the aggregate of (i) the total number of meetings of the Board of Directors and (ii) the total number of meetings held by all committees of the board on which he or she served (during the periods that he or she served). The board has not set a formal policy requiring meeting attendance. A high level of attendance and participation is expected, and to date directors have fulfilled this expectation. At the first meeting of the board following this year's Annual Meeting of Stockholders, executive officers will be appointed and those directors elected by stockholders at this year's Annual Meeting will be appointed to serve on the various board committees until the next Annual Meeting and until their successors are elected.

Audit Committee

The Audit Committee oversees the accounting and financial reporting processes of the Company and the audits and reviews of its financial statements. The Audit Committee engages the Company's Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm, consults with such auditors with regard to audit plans, reviews the annual reports of the independent auditors, oversees the adequacy of the Company's internal operating procedures and controls, meets with management and the auditors to review quarterly and annual financial results, authorizes the public release of press releases covering financial results, reviews and authorizes quarterly and annual reports filed with the SEC and otherwise oversees compliance with certain legal, ethical and regulatory matters. The Audit Committee takes the lead on oversight of credit, liquidity and operational risk, but the entire board, in conjunction with the executive officers, is very involved with reviewing Audit Committee recommendations and making independent assessments of risks in all areas of the Company's business. The Company does not have a specific risk management department, but the Company's Chief Financial Officer and President and CEO manage and contract for the Company's insurance coverages in consultation with outside experts, in addition to identifying, managing and monitoring risk in areas not specifically covered by insurance. The Chief Financial Officer reports to the President and CEO, who, in turn, reports to the board. The Audit Committee's current members are Dr. Guillemette, Ms. Turner and Mr. Wainman. Mr. Wainman serves as Chair of the Audit Committee. All members of the Audit Committee meet the heightened independence standards for audit committee service under applicable SEC and Nasdaq Stock Market rules, and Mr. Wainman meets the SEC and Nasdaq qualifications for audit committee financial expert. During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Audit Committee held nine meetings and took action by unanimous written consent once. The Audit Committee Report can be found later in this Proxy Statement, and the "Charter and Powers of the Audit Committee" has been posted on the Company's website (http://immucell.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/charter.pdf). Information on the Company's website does not constitute part of this Proxy Statement.

Compensation and Stock Option Committee (Compensation Committee)

The Compensation Committee reviews and recommends salary, bonus and other benefits for executive officers and directors of the Company. The Compensation Committee is responsible for administering the Company's 2010 Stock Option and Incentive Plan, the 2017 Stock Option and Incentive Plan and the 2025 Stock Option and Incentive Plan. The Compensation Committee's current members are Dr. DiMarco, Ms. Turner, and Dr. Tomsche each of whom are independent directors. Ms. Turner serves as Chair of the Compensation Committee. During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Compensation Committee held eight meetings and took action by unanimous written consent twice. The Compensation Committee does not have a charter but instead operates within the authority provided by the Company's By-laws and authorizing resolutions adopted by the board. Its recommendations on executive and director compensation are subject to review by the Board of Directors, a majority of whose members are independent directors. The Compensation Committee considers recommendations from the Company's President and CEO, relevant to a determination of executive and director compensation, but all compensation decisions by the Compensation Committee or the board are determined by vote of the independent directors. In the past year, the Compensation Committee has relied upon outside consultants to assist in its determination of executive or director compensation in addition to outside compensation data to establish appropriate pay ranges for key executives.

Nominating Committee

The Nominating Committee recommends to the full board the number of directors to serve on the board, criteria for board membership and nominees for election to the board. In doing so, the Nominating Committee considers the integrity and relevant business experience of each nominee. The Nominating Committee values diversity, believing that the Company benefits from decision making that includes a range of opinions, points of view and experience. For instance, the Nominating Committee would not want a board comprised only of directors having principally financial expertise or only of directors whose principal experience is in the dairy and beef industries. Likewise, the Nominating Committee believes that a board consisting of all men or all women would not be as strong as a gender-diverse board. To be considered for nomination to the board, a candidate must meet the following minimum criteria: 1) reputation for integrity and high ethical standards, 2) willingness and ability to contribute positively to the Company's decision-making process, 3) absence of any conflict of interest, or appearance of conflict of interest and 4) commitment to understanding the Company's business and associated business risks and to devoting adequate time and effort to create value for the Company and its stockholders. All nominees included on this year's proxy card were recommended by the Nominating Committee and then approved by a vote of the board. The Committee's current members are Ms. Basse, Dr. DiMarco, and Dr. Guillemette, each of whom are independent directors. Ms. Basse serves as Chair of the Nominating Committee. During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Nominating Committee met four times. Procedures for stockholders to nominate candidates for election as directors are described above under the caption, "STOCKHOLDER PROPOSALS, DIRECTOR NOMINATIONS AND COMMUNICATIONS". Upon recommendation from the Nominating Committee, the Board of Directors adopted a charter for the Nominating Committee in December of 2012. This charter sets forth the policy to be utilized by the Nominating Committee in considering nominees identified by management to serve as directors for the Company. The Charter of the Nominating Committee has been posted to the Company's website (http://immucell.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/Nominating-Committee-Charter.pdf). The Nominating Committee applies the same evaluation standards in considering nominees for director recommended by stockholders.

Strategy & Technology Committee

In April 2026, the Board of Directors established a Strategy & Technology Committee of the board. This Committee assists the board in overseeing ImmuCell's long-term strategic direction and technology priorities. Its responsibilities include reviewing the Company's strategic plan, monitoring progress toward key objectives, and evaluating market, regulatory, and competitive trends affecting the business. The Committee also oversees the Company's technology roadmap, R&D priorities, and innovation initiatives related to its proprietary animal health products. It reviews significant strategic opportunities, including partnerships, acquisitions, and other corporate development activities, and assesses related risks. The Committee consists of at least three directors, a majority of whom are independent and meets at least quarterly, and may engage external advisors as needed. The current members of the Strategy & Technology Committee are Ms. Basse, Dr. DiMarco, Dr. Guillemette, and Ms. Turner. Dr. Guillemette serves as Chair of the Committee. The Charter of the Strategy & Technology Committee has been posted to the Company's website [•].

DIRECTOR COMPENSATION

As a matter of Company policy, no executive or other employee of the Company who also is a director receives additional compensation for service on the Board of Directors or for attendance at board meetings or committee meetings. Effective January 1, 2026, the annual fee paid to non-employee directors was increased from $30,000 to $40,000, and the additional fee for committee membership was discontinued. The Company does pay an additional fee to the Chair of the Board of Directors for service in that capacity; such additional fee is $12,000 per year. Dr. Tomsche has served as Chair since 2013. All fees paid to directors are paid quarterly at the end of the quarter during which they are earned.

The following table contains information as to the compensation paid by the Company to its non-employee directors for services rendered during the year ended December 31, 2025:

Name		Fees Earned or Paid in Cash				Stock Option Awards(1)(2)				Total
Gloria J. Basse		$	28,000			$	23,900			$	51,900
Bryan K. Gathagan(3)		$	30,000			$	23,900			$	53,900
Steven T. Rosgen(3)		$	30,000			$	23,900			$	53,900
David S. Tomsche, D.V.M.		$	40,000			$	23,900			$	63,900
Paul R. Wainman		$	30,000			$	23,900			$	53,900

(1)	This amount represents the total non-cash compensation expense related to stock options granted on April 16, 2025. Each of the then serving outside directors was granted non-qualified stock options to purchase 10,000 shares of common stock under the 2017 Stock Option and Incentive Plan. These options have an exercise price equal to $5.49 per share, which was the closing stock price on the date of grant. Under the original grant terms, these options vest on April 16, 2028 and expire if not exercised by April 16, 2030. In March 2026, the Board approved amendments under which these options vest in three annual increments on the first, second, and third anniversaries of the date of grant.
(2)	As of December 31, 2025, the aggregate number of stock options outstanding for each non-employee director was as follows: Ms. Basse - 40,000; Mr. Gathagan - 35,000; Mr. Rosgen - 40,000; Dr. Tomsche - 40,000; and Mr. Wainman - 40,000.
(3)	Mr. Rosgen and Mr. Gathagan each retired as directors of the Company effective April 1, 2026 and April 15, 2026, respectively.

Subsequent Events

In March 2026, the Board of Directors adopted a new policy allowing for an extended period of exercisability of stock options granted to directors. Upon termination of the holder's service as a director, if the director is in good standing with the Company (as determined by the board, in its sole discretion) and has served as an independent director of the Company for at least the past 48 months, the then-vested portion of his or her option will remain exercisable through the remainder of the original term of the option. Subject to the authority of the Compensation Committee to further modify terms in its discretion, a stock option generally will expire one month or three months (as referenced in the option agreement) after the holder's termination of service. Furthermore, without limiting the discretion of the board otherwise to accelerate vesting, each director option agreement shall provide for full mandatory acceleration in the event of a change in control of the Company (as defined in the option agreement or incorporated by reference into such agreement). This change in policy applies not only to new stock option grants to directors but also applies retroactively to any previously granted director stock options still outstanding. In that same action, the board changed the vesting pattern for director stock options (both for new options and, retroactively, for prior options still outstanding) such that each such option is to vest in three equal increments on the first, second, and third anniversaries of the date of grant (rather than vesting on the third anniversary of the date of grant). Newly granted director options (but not any previously granted options) will carry a term of ten years (rather than five years, as had been the Company's recent practice).

Consistent with the above-described changes in policy, when Mr. Rosgen retired as director effective April 1, 2026, he received the benefit of an extended exercise period through the original termination dates of four prior stock options (with termination dates ranging from June 17, 2026 to April 16, 2030). One such option was granted April 16, 2025, to purchase 10,000 shares at $5.49 per share. When granted the option vested in three years. That vesting schedule changed to annual vesting over three years under the above-described changes in policy. In view of Mr. Rosgen's retirement, the Compensation Committee voted to accelerate the initial vesting of that option by sixteen days, thereby allowing one-third of the 2025 grant to vest by April 1, 2026.

In connection with his retirement, Mr. Gathagan received the benefit of board action which somewhat accelerated an option earlier granted to him. At the time first appointed to the board, Mr. Gathagan was granted a non-qualified stock option to purchase 15,000 shares of common stock under the 2017 Stock Option and Incentive Plan, with terms similar to those previously granted to other directors. That stock option, with an exercise price equal to $5.11 per share, was scheduled to vest on June 28, 2026. On April 7, 2026, the board voted to accelerate the vesting of this option to April 13, 2026, thereby allowing this grant to vest before Mr. Gathagan retired from service in good standing as a director. On April 16, 2025, Mr. Gathagan was granted a non-qualified stock option to purchase 10,000 shares of common stock under the 2017 Stock Option and Incentive Plan, with an exercise price equal to $5.49 per share. Under the board's retroactive adjustment of vesting dates, one-third of that option was to vest on April 16, 2026. The Compensation Committee voted to accelerate that vesting by one day, thereby allowing this grant to vest in part before Mr. Gathagan's retirement date.

To further standardize Company practice in granting compensatory stock options to non-employee directors, the board in March 2026 took action directing the Compensation Committee to make annual stock option grants to independent directors as of April 15 each year, in formulaic amounts. The following grants were made on April 15, 2026: Ms. Turner, Dr. DiMarco and Dr. Guillemette were each granted non-qualified stock options to purchase [•] shares of common stock under the 2017 Stock Option and Incentive Plan. These options have an exercise price equal to [•] per share, which was the fair market value on the date of grant, and they vest in three equal installments on April 15, 2027, April 15, 2028 and April 15, 2029. Additionally, Ms. Basse, Dr. Tomsche, and Mr. Wainman were each granted non-qualified stock options to purchase [•] shares of common stock under the 2017 Stock Option and Incentive Plan. These options have an exercise price equal to [•] per share, which was the fair market value on the date of grant, and they vest in three equal installments on April 15, 2027, April 15, 2028 and April 15, 2029. All of the April 15, 2026 option grants will expire if not exercised by April 15, 2036.

INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENTS

The Company has entered into indemnification agreements with its directors and executive officers. The agreements include procedures for reimbursement by the Company of certain liabilities and expenses which may be incurred in connection with service as a director or executive officer. The Company expects to enter into indemnification agreements with individuals who become directors in the future, as well as such executive officers of the Company as the Board of Directors may from time to time determine.

CODE OF BUSINESS CONDUCT AND ETHICS

In December of 2003, the Board of Directors of the Company adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics (the Code) that applies to all employees of the Company, including the Company's President and CEO, Chief Financial Officer, Senior Vice President of Sales and Marketing and Director of Finance and Administration.

(1)	Bonus (or variable compensation) is reported in the year earned, even if paid in the beginning of the next year. Paul Olivier te Boekhorst earned a sign-on bonus in 2025. Michael F. Brigham earned a $50,000 retention bonus in 2025 associated with the Company's hiring of a new Chief Executive Officer and earned a $50,000 performance bonus in 2025. Bobbi Jo Brockmann earned $52,537 and $90,000 performance bonuses in 2024 and 2025. Timothy C. Fiori earned a $45,000 retention bonus and $40,000 for performance bonus in 2025. These executive officer performance bonuses were contingent on achieving certain financial, strategic and operational targets set in advance.
(2)	This amount represents the total non-cash compensation expense related to stock option awards granted during the year that they were earned, which is being expensed over the three-year vesting period from grant date.
(3)	This amount includes Company-paid contributions to a 401(k) Plan, health insurance premiums and life insurance premiums that are available to all employees of similar employment status, if elected. The 2025 amount for Mr. Brigham includes $300,000 of conditional deferred compensation originally awarded to him in 2022 and paid out in January 2025 according to its terms, as outlined in the AMENDED AND RESTATED SEPARATION AND DEFERRED COMPENSATION AGREEMENT, filed with the SEC.

Generally during the first quarter of each year, annual salaries and bonuses for these named executive officers are determined at the discretion of the Compensation and Stock Option Committee. Effective on April 7, 2025 (his initial date of hire), Mr. Fiori's base salary rate was $250,000 per year.

Effective December 1, 2025 through December 31, 2026, the Company is contributing approximately $8,758 per year towards the cost of employee only health insurance and $24,543 per year towards the cost of family health insurance coverage, for each employee who qualifies and opts in. Effective December 1, 2024 through November 30, 2025, this annual contribution was approximately $21,433. Effective December 1, 2023 through November 30, 2024, this annual contribution was approximately $20,755. Mr. te Boekhorst elected the employee-only health insurance coverage. Mr. Brigham and Ms. Brockmann elected the family health insurance coverage. Mr. Fiori elected to receive an opt-out payment of $3,840 per year because he has health insurance coverage through his spouse.

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS

We enter into compensation agreements (which are publicly filed) with our executive officers.

Effective March 28, 2022, we entered into an Amended and Restated Separation and Deferred Compensation Agreement (the "Deferred Compensation Agreement") with Mr. Brigham (our former President and CEO) that superseded and replaced in its entirety a March 2020 severance agreement between the Company and Mr. Brigham. Upon his separation from the Company during January 2026, Mr. Brigham's Deferred Compensation Agreement allowed Mr. Brigham to be paid, among other amounts, all earned and unused paid time off. Accordingly, a related accrual of $239,369 and $230,162 was included in accounts payable and accrued expenses as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Additionally, Mr. Brigham was paid $300,000 in deferred compensation during the first quarter of 2025, which was included in accounts payable and accrued expenses on the accompanying balance sheet as of December 31, 2024. As of December 31, 2025, the Company had $100,000 recorded in accounts payable and accrued expenses related to a retention bonus and performance bonus in equal amounts, due to Mr. Brigham in the first quarter of 2026.

As of September 29, 2025, we entered into an employment agreement with Mr. te Boekhorst (effective upon commencement of employment as Company President and Chief Executive Officer starting November 1, 2025) under which he will receive an annual base salary of $450,000. He also will be entitled to earn annual cash bonuses of up to an additional $400,000 per year subject to the Company achieving certain financial, strategic and operational targets set in advance by the Company's Board of Directors or its Compensation and Stock Option Committee. The targets for 2026 were negotiated between Mr. te Boekhorst and the Compensation and Stock Option Committee in the first quarter of 2026. He also received a one-time $100,000 signing bonus upon commencement of employment (subject to repayment by him in certain events involving cessation of employment within one year of commencement). In the event the Company terminates Mr. te Boekhorst's employment without cause or he terminates his employment for good reason (each as defined), he will become eligible for severance compensation consisting of one year's base annual salary, up to 12 months of COBRA cost reimbursement, up to 12 months of accelerated vesting of his outstanding stock options, and an extended period (24 months) within which to exercise his vested stock options.

Incentive Compensation Agreements with the Company's executive officers allow these executives to earn incentive (performance) compensation if certain regulatory, financial and retention objectives are met during the year to which the agreement relates, as specified in their agreements. Amounts related to these incentive compensation agreements are accrued over the period they are earned (once it is probable that the amounts will be earned) based on our best estimate of the amounts expected to be earned.

Effective as of January 27, 2026, the Company entered into new employment agreements with Timothy C. Fiori, the Company's Chief Financial Officer, and Bobbi Jo Brockmann, the Company's Senior Vice President of Sales and Marketing.

Pursuant to new employment agreements in January 2026, Mr. Fiori currently is compensated at an annual base salary of $315,000 and Ms. Brockmann is compensated at an annual base salary of $300,000. Mr. Fiori and Ms. Brockmann are each eligible to earn a formulaic annual cash bonus subject to achievement of financial and strategic targets set in advance each year. The target cash bonus amount is 50% of base salary (potentially 60% if all targets are exceeded by at least 20%). The financial and strategic targets for 2026 were approved by the board's Compensation Committee. Per the employment agreements, the annual financial and strategic targets thereafter will be set each year by the Company's CEO in consultation with this Committee; for targets that are qualitative in nature, the extent to which the qualitative target was achieved is to be determined each year by that Committee. As with other incentive-based compensation, payouts of annual cash bonuses are subject to possible retroactive clawback if and to the extent mandated by Company policy or applicable laws or listing requirements. In the event the Company terminates Mr. Fiori's or Ms. Brockmann's employment without cause or he or she terminates employment for good reason (each as defined), such executive will become eligible for severance compensation consisting of one year's base annual salary, up to 12 months of COBRA cost reimbursement, accelerated vesting of his or her outstanding stock options, and an extended period (6 months) within which to exercise his or her vested stock options.

TIMING OF GRANTS OF EQUITY AWARD

Neither the Board of Directors nor the Compensation and Stock Option Committee takes material non-public information into account when determining the timing of equity awards, and we do not time the release of material non-public information based on equity award grant dates. During the last completed fiscal year, with one exception, the Company did not make any stock option awards to NEOs within the four-business-day period before or the one-business-day period after the filing of any Form 10-K, 10-Q or 8-K containing material non-public information (as defined in Item 402(x) of Regulation S-K). The sole exception was a stock option granted to Mr. te Boekhorst under terms negotiated with him in September 2025 as an inducement to become President and CEO at a later date (originally planned to be in mid-November 2025). More specifically, the Company agreed to make two initial stock option grants to him - one in September 2025 and the second to be made promptly after his commencement as CEO. Mr. te Boekhorst commenced employment on November 1, 2025 (two weeks earlier than originally planned) and as agreed the Company granted his second stock option within several days thereafter. The following tabular disclosure is provided pursuant to Item 402(x) referenced above.

Name	Grant Date	Number of securities underlying the award	Grant date fair value of the award	Percentage change in the closing market price of the securities underlying the award between the trading day ending immediately prior to the disclosure of material nonpublic information and the trading day beginning immediately following the disclosure of material nonpublic information

Except for Mr. te Boekhorst and Mr. Fiori (who are Company employees), each of the Company's existing directors or nominees qualifies as an "independent director" as defined under applicable Nasdaq Stock Market rules. In evaluating the independence of directors, the board did consider the matters described above under the caption "CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS, RELATED TRANSACTIONS AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE". If any of the individuals named above should not be available for election as contemplated, it is the intention of the persons named in the proxy to vote for such other person or persons as management may recommend. Management has no reason to believe any nominees will be unavailable. Any vacancies that may occur during the year may be filled by the Board of Directors to serve until the next Annual Meeting.

Mr. Bryan K. Gathagan, Mr. Steven T. Rosgen, Mr. Timothy C. Fiori, Mr. Michael F. Brigham, and Ms. Bobbi Jo Brockman elected not to stand for re-election to the Company's Board of Directors. The Company very much appreciates their prior service to the Company as directors.

The Board of Directors recommends that you vote FOR the election of the seven nominees listed above.

NON-BINDING, ADVISORY VOTE TO APPROVE EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION (Proposal Two)

As required by Section 14A of the Exchange Act, the Company is asking its stockholders to approve, on a non-binding, advisory basis, the compensation of its named executive officers, as disclosed in this Proxy. This type of proposal is commonly referred to as "say-on-pay." We currently present such proposal to stockholders on an annual basis.

We maintain an executive compensation program that consists of base salary and periodic stock option grants, with annual discretionary bonuses based on pre-set performance targets. In some cases, we also pay contractually delineated bonuses. The Compensation and Stock Option Committee and the Board of Directors believe that this compensation mix supports the fundamental goals of our compensation program, namely to attract, motivate, retain and reward exceptionally talented executives; to align executive interests and stockholder interests through an appropriate mix of long-term and short-term incentives; and to maximize the financial efficiency of the program from risk, tax, accounting, and cash flow perspectives.

The Company differentiates among key employees primarily based on size of base salary and size and frequency of stock option grants. Annual compensation decisions for the named executive officers are made by the Compensation Committee based on performance and market-related factors. Features of our compensation program for the named executive officers include the following:

●

A majority of total cash compensation for NEOs consists of base salary, which is subject to annual review based on both long-term and short-term corporate performance.

	●	A significant portion of total cash compensation for NEOs now consists of annual cash bonuses, as provided for in incentive compensation agreements with each NEO which provide variable compensation if certain financial results and regulatory objectives are achieved.
	●	Equity awards consist of stock options, generally vesting over a three-year period in equal installments. The Compensation Committee believes that such awards further align the interests of NEOs and stockholders.

	●	From time to time, the Compensation Committee reviews compensation against a peer group (companies of similar size and structure and most often in the same industry) and considers the opinions of independent consultants with regards to the estimated replacement costs for current executive officers to ensure that total compensation is both competitive and appropriate.
	●	The Compensation Committee annually reviews risk associated with our compensation program to ensure that our program does not create incentives that would encourage subjecting the Company to risks that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company.

The Company is asking its stockholders to indicate their support, on a non-binding, advisory basis, for the executive compensation as described in this Proxy Statement. This vote is not intended to address any specific item of compensation, but rather the overall compensation of the named executive officers and the philosophy, policies and practices described in this proxy statement. Our Board of Directors is asking stockholders to approve the following resolution:

RESOLVED, that the compensation paid to the Company's named executive officers, as disclosed in the Proxy Statement pursuant to Item 402 of Regulation S-K, including the compensation tables and narrative discussion, is hereby approved on an advisory basis.

As an advisory vote, this vote is not binding and does not alter the scope of discretion of, or prior decisions by, the Board of Directors or its Compensation Committee. However, the Board of Directors and Compensation Committee value the opinions expressed by stockholders in their vote on this proposal and will consider the outcome of the vote when making future compensation decisions for these key employees.

The Board of Directors recommends that you vote FOR the approval of the non-binding, advisory resolution on compensation for the named executive officers.

VOTE TO APPROVE THE COMPANY'S 2025 STOCK OPTION AND INCENTIVE PLAN (Proposal Three)

Effective November 7, 2025 and as later amended in March 2026, the Board of Directors approved a 2025 Stock Option and Incentive Plan (as revised, the 2025 Plan), a copy of which is attached as Appendix A to this Proxy Statement. The 2025 Plan is intended to succeed the Company's 2017 Stock Option and Incentive Plan (the 2017 Plan). By its terms the 2017 Plan expires in March 2027; its remaining share authorization amount is now less than [•] shares.

The purpose of the 2025 Plan is to advance the interests of the Company by providing selected employees and certain other individuals providing services to the Company with an additional incentive, encouraging stock ownership by such individuals, increasing their interest in the success of the Company and encouraging them to remain employees of the Company or service providers for the Company. By its terms, the 2025 Plan terminates on November 7, 2035. A summary of the essential features is provided below, qualified in its entirety however by reference to the full text of the 2025 Plan.

The 2025 Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee, which in its discretion selects the key employees and other persons eligible to participate, determines the terms of awards, interprets the 2025 Plan, and makes all other determinations for administering the 2025 Plan. A maximum of 650,000 shares of Company common stock may be issued pursuant to awards under the 2025 Plan (subject to increase in the event of subsequent stock splits or other capital changes). The 2025 Plan allows for granting of both incentive stock options and nonqualified stock options (Stock Options). As of April 13, 2026, [•] Stock Options had been granted under the 2025 Plan. Consistent with Nasdaq Stock Market rules that generally require stockholder approval of equity-based compensation of officers, directors, employees or consultants, nearly all of the grants made to date under the 2025 Plan are conditional upon stockholder approval of the 2025 Plan and cannot be exercised and will expire worthless if such approval is not obtained. (The lone exceptions are grants made in September 2025 and November 2025 to Mr. te Boekhorst as inducements for him to become CEO of the Company, which grants are referenced above under "OUTSTANDING EQUITY AWARDS".)

The 2025 Plan allows for grants intended to qualify as "Incentive Stock Options" to the extent permitted under Section 422 of the Code. Other Stock Options are to be granted as nonqualified stock options. In all cases, Stock Options will be issued at an option price no less than the fair market value of the Company's common stock on the date of grant (110% of fair market value in the case of grantees who are 10% or greater stockholders). Exercise of Stock Options will be subject to terms and conditions set by the Compensation Committee and set forth in the award agreement evidencing the Stock Option. Stock Options may be exercised with either cash or, in the discretion of the Compensation Committee, by surrendering shares of common stock or through net exercise of vested stock options. The date of expiration of the Stock Option will be fixed by the Compensation Committee, but may not be longer than ten years from the date of grant (five years in the case of certain third parties or 10% or greater stockholders). Such determinations by the Compensation Committee may be on a case-by-case basis. No Stock Options may be exercised after their stated termination date (generally 10 years from the date of grant). Upon termination of employment or service to the Company, the right to exercise a Stock Options generally will expire three months after the termination date (one year if termination is due to death or disability), except that for a director who retires from the board in good standing (as determined in the discretion of the Board of Directors) following at least 48 months' service as an independent director, the period of exercisability will generally extend to the end of the original term of the Stock Option, as described in "DIRECTOR COMPENSATION").

An optionee will not recognize income for Federal income tax purposes upon the grant of an Incentive Stock Option. An optionee generally will also not recognize income upon the exercise of an Incentive Stock Option; however, the difference between the option price and the fair market value of the stock acquired on the date of exercise is an item of tax preference for purposes of the alternative minimum tax. If no disposition of the stock acquired upon the exercise of the Incentive Stock Option occurs until after more than two years after the Incentive Stock Option was granted and more than one year after the transfer of such stock to the optionee, any gain or loss recognized upon such disposition will be treated as long-term capital gain or loss.

The disposition of the stock acquired upon the exercise of an Incentive Stock Option within two years after the Incentive Stock Option was granted or within one year after the transfer of the stock to the optionee will be a disqualifying disposition, and the optionee will generally recognize (i) ordinary compensation income for Federal income tax purposes in an amount equal to the excess of the fair market value on the date of exercise of the stock acquired over the option price and (ii) short or long-term capital gain (depending upon how long the stock was held) to the extent the stock is disposed of in a sale or taxable exchange at a price in excess of the value of such stock on the date of exercise. If the amount realized by the optionee upon such a disposition is less than the value of the stock on the date of exercise, then the amount of income realized will be all compensation income and will be limited to the excess amount realized on the sale or exchange over the option price of the stock.

As is the case with an Incentive Stock Option, an optionee will not recognize income for Federal income tax purposes upon the grant of a nonqualified stock option. However, upon the exercise of a nonqualified stock option, an optionee will generally recognize ordinary compensation income in an amount equal to the excess of the fair market value of the common stock on the date of exercise over the option price. Any gain or loss recognized by the optionee on the subsequent disposition of the stock will be capital gain or loss.

Upon the exercise of a non-qualified stock option, the Company will be entitled to a deduction for Federal income tax purposes at the same time and in the same amount as an optionee is required to recognize ordinary compensation income as described above.

New Plan Benefits

As described above, the selection of the employees of the Company who will receive grants under the 2025 Plan is to be determined by the Compensation Committee at its discretion. Therefore, it is not possible to predict the amounts that will be received by or allocated to particular individuals or groups of employees under the 2025 Plan. During 2025, options to purchase an aggregate of 74,277 shares under the 2025 Plan were granted to one executive officer (Mr. te Boekhorst).

The last sales price of the Company's common stock on April 13, 2026 was $[•]per share as quoted on The Nasdaq SmallCap Market.

INTEREST OF CERTAIN PERSONS IN PROPOSAL THREE ABOVE

The approval of the 2025 Plan may benefit Ms. Brockmann, Mr. Fiori and Mr. te Boekhorst, executive officers of the Company, as well as non-employee directors of the Company and all new employees because they are eligible for grants under the 2025 Plan.

The Board of Directors recommends that you vote FOR the proposal to approve the 2025 Plan.

VOTE TO APPROVE AN AMENDMENT TO THE COMPANY'S CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION TO REFLECT DELAWARE LAW PROVISIONS REGARDING OFFICER EXCULPATION (Proposal Four)

We are asking you to approve an amendment to the Company's Certificate of Incorporation (the "Charter") to provide for exculpation of officers of the Company as permitted by amendments to Delaware law (the "Exculpation Amendment").

Background of the Exculpation Amendment

Section 102(b)(7) of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the "DGCL") now allows a Delaware corporation to exculpate officers from personal liability for breaches of fiduciary duty in certain circumstances. Delaware law has long authorized exculpation for directors but had not extended such protection to officers until Section 102(b)(7) was amended in 2022. As with directors, the permitted exculpation for officers does not apply to his or her breaches of the duty of loyalty, acts or omissions not in good faith or intentional misconduct or knowing violations of law, nor to any transaction in which he or she derived an improper personal benefit. Unlike exculpation for directors, the protection for officers under Section 102(b)(7) does not apply to actions brought by or in the right of the Company, whether brought by the Company itself or brought in the form of derivative claims by stockholders in the name of the Company.

Article Eighth of ImmuCell's Charter has long provided for exculpation of directors. To gain the added protection for officers, we are proposing to amend the Company's Certificate of Incorporation to add an officer exculpation provision to the full extent permitted under Section 102(b)(7).

Rationale for the Exculpation Amendment

The Board of Directors believes that adopting the Exculpation Amendment is in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders. The nature of the role of directors and officers often requires them to make important decisions on crucial matters. In some cases, directors and officers must make decisions in response to time-sensitive opportunities and challenges, which can create substantial risk of investigations, claims, actions, suits, or proceedings seeking to impose liability on the basis of hindsight, especially in the current litigious environment and regardless of merit. In other cases, business decisions by directors or officers can have unanticipated or undesired consequences. Limiting concern about personal risk allows directors and officers greater leeway to best exercise their business judgment in furtherance of stockholder interests, without undue fear of being held personally accountable for damages that might arise from an adverse outcome. Many of our peers and other companies with whom we compete for officer talent have adopted officer exculpation clauses of this sort. We believe that failing to provide it could affect our ability to recruit and retain quality employees to fill important executive positions.

The Board has also determined that the Exculpation Amendment would reduce disparate treatment of directors and officers in future claims alleging breach of the duty of care and would better align officers and directors in carrying out the Company's business. The Board also believes that adopting the Exculpation Amendment could potentially reduce overall litigation costs, by allowing earlier dismissal of certain kinds of claims against an officer.

After weighing these considerations, the Board approved and declared it advisable to adopt, subject to stockholder approval, the proposed Exculpation Amendment.

Other Information

If this Proposal Four is approved, the Company intends to file the amendment to the Charter, as set forth in Appendix B, with the Delaware Secretary of State, and the Exculpation Amendment will become effective at the time of that filing.

If this Proposal Four is not approved, the Company will not file the amendment to the Charter with the Delaware Secretary of State and our Certificate of Incorporation would remain unchanged.

Consistent with the DGCL, the Board reserves discretion, at any time prior to effectiveness of the Exculpation Amendment, to abandon this proposed amendment without further action by the stockholders (even if the requisite stockholder vote is obtained).

The Board of Directors recommends that you vote "FOR" the adoption of the Exculpation Amendment (Proposal Four).

RATIFICATION OF APPOINTMENT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC
ACCOUNTING FIRM (Proposal Five)

On March 23, 2026, the Audit Committee appointed Wipfli LLP to serve as our Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm for the year ending December 31, 2026. The Audit Committee's engagement of this firm was made in accordance with procedures contemplated in that committee's charter. This decision is expected to be ratified by the Board of Directors at its next regularly scheduled meeting.

Although stockholder approval of the Audit Committee's selection of Wipfli LLP is not required by law, the Board of Directors believes that it is advisable to give stockholders an opportunity to ratify this selection. A representative of Wipfli LLP is expected to be present (virtually) at the Annual Meeting with an opportunity to make a statement if he or she desires to do so and is expected to be available to respond to appropriate questions during the live audio webcast via the telephone conference call link. If this proposal is not approved at the Annual Meeting, the Audit Committee will reconsider its selection of Wipfli LLP. Even if the appointment is ratified, the Audit Committee, in its discretion, can direct the appointment of a different firm at any time during the year if the Audit Committee determines that such a change would be in the Company's and the stockholders' best interests.

Principal Accounting Fees and Services

On March 23, 2026, the Audit Committee appointed Wipfli LLP as its Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm for the year ending December 31, 2026. The Board of Directors is expected to ratify this appointment. Wipfli LLP has served as our IRPAF since 2019.

Set forth below is a summary of the fees incurred for services rendered by Wipfli LLP , for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024:

		2025				2024
Audit Fees(1)		$	155,820			$	147,000
Audit-Related Fees(2)			276				23,670
Total		$	156,096			$	170,670

(1)

Includes fees billed by or accrued for the auditors for their reviews of the quarterly financial statements included in the Company's Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the first three quarters of each year and their audits of the annual financial statements included in the Company's Annual Reports on Form 10-K and incidental expenses.

(2)	Includes fees paid to Wipfli LLP related to Comfort Letters and Bringdown calls and similar activities generally related to the Company's equity raising activities.

Pre-Approval Policy

In accordance with the procedures set forth in its charter, the Audit Committee pre-approves all auditing services and permitted non-audit services (including the fees and other terms of those services) to be performed for the Company by its Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm. Such approval may be accomplished by approving the terms of the engagement prior to the engagement of the Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm with respect to such services or by establishing detailed pre-approval policies and procedures to govern such engagement. The Audit Committee authorizes management to spend up to an additional $10,000 per year for services that are not anticipated at the time of the engagement, provided that the Audit Committee is promptly informed of such services.

Audit Committee Financial Expert

Mr. Paul R. Wainman, who joined our Board of Directors in March of 2014 and currently serves as Chair of the Audit Committee, meets the criteria for "audit committee financial expert" as defined by SEC rules. It is the opinion of the Company's Board of Directors that the Company addresses its audit functions with a depth of penetration and rigor that meets the intent of the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act for the following reasons:

	●	All three members of the Audit Committee are independent directors, as defined under applicable SEC and Nasdaq rules.
	●	All three members of the Audit Committee have demonstrated the ability to read and understand fundamental financial statements, including a Company's balance sheet, income statement, and cash flow statement.
	●	Internal audit work is performed by the Company's Director of Finance and Administration, its Senior Accountant and its Manager of Administrative Operations.
	●	The Company also continuously reviews, at its own initiative, the expertise of the members of its Board of Directors and its Audit Committee.

Audit Committee Report

Set out below is a report of the Audit Committee, adopted in connection with its review of the audited financial statement for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025.

AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT

March 23, 2026

The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors reviews the financial reporting process, the system of internal controls, the audit process and the process for monitoring compliance with certain applicable laws and regulations. The Audit Committee is responsible for selecting and hiring the Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm and meets with those accountants (in person or by telephone) before each quarterly press release concerning the Company's financial results. The Audit Committee approves the public disclosure and filing with the SEC of the related press releases. After reviewing the quarterly and annual reports that are prepared by management, the Audit Committee authorizes the filing of such reports with the SEC. All members of the Audit Committee meet the heightened independence and expertise requirements for audit committees under applicable Nasdaq Stock Market rules. Mr. Wainman joined the Audit Committee in March of 2014 and serves as its Chair. Mr. Rosgen joined the Audit Committee in April of 2018. Mr. Gathagan joined the Audit Committee in June 2023. The Audit Committee currently operates under a charter adopted by the board in 2004. The Company has a January 1st to December 31st fiscal year. During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Audit Committee met nine times and took action by unanimous written counsel once.

The Audit Committee has reviewed the Company's audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025 and discussed such statements with management and Wipfli LLP, the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for 2025. The Audit Committee has discussed with Wipfli LLP various communications that Wipfli LLP is required to provide to the Audit Committee including the matters required to be discussed by Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) Auditing Standards No. 1301 (Communication with Audit Committees). The Audit Committee received from Wipfli LLP the written disclosures and the letter required by applicable requirements of the PCAOB concerning independence and has discussed the auditor's independence with them.

Based on the review and discussions noted above, the Audit Committee recommended to the board that the Company's audited financial statements be included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 and be filed with the SEC.

This report of the Audit Committee shall not be deemed incorporated by reference by any general statement incorporating this Proxy Statement by reference into any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, except to the extent that the Company specifically incorporates this information by reference and shall not otherwise be deemed filed under such Acts.

In addition to the other powers granted to the Committee under this Plan, the Committee shall have the power, subject to the terms of this Plan: (i) to determine which of the eligible individuals shall be granted Options; (ii) to determine the time or times when Options shall be granted and to determine the number of Shares subject to each Option; (iii) to accelerate or extend the date on which a previously granted Option may be exercised, provided that such extension shall not extend the option beyond ten (10) years; (iv) to prescribe the form of agreement evidencing Options granted pursuant to this Plan; (v) to correct any defect, supply any omission or reconcile any inconsistency in this Plan or any Option awarded and (vi) to construe and interpret this Plan and the agreements evidencing Options granted pursuant to this Plan, and otherwise to make all other determinations and take all other actions necessary or advisable for the administration of this Plan. The terms of Option awards need not be identical, and the Committee need not treat Participants uniformly.

4.

Eligibility. The individuals who shall be eligible to receive Options shall be such employees employed by a member of the Company Group and such other individuals providing services to a member of the Company Group as shall be selected by the Committee, including without limitation non-employee directors, consultants, and advisors; provided, however, that only employees employed by a member of the Company Group shall be eligible to receive Incentive Stock Options. Participants chosen to participate under this Plan may be granted an Incentive Stock Option, a Nonqualified Stock Option, or any combination thereof.

5.

Shares Subject to This Plan. The Shares subject to Options shall be either authorized and unissued Shares or treasury Shares. The aggregate number of Shares which may be issued pursuant to this Plan shall be six hundred fifty thousand (650,000). Except as provided below, if an Option shall expire and terminate for any reason, in whole or in part, without being exercised, the number of Shares as to which such expired or terminated Option shall not have been exercised may again become available for the grant of Options. Any or all Options granted hereunder may be Incentive Stock Options or Nonqualified Stock Options, subject to the criteria applicable thereto.

II. STOCK OPTION PROVISIONS

1.

General. The Committee may grant options to purchase Common Stock (each, an "Option") and determine the number of shares of Common Stock to be covered by each Option, the exercise price of each Option and the conditions and limitations applicable to the exercise of each Option, including conditions relating to applicable federal or state securities laws, as the Committee considers necessary or advisable.

2.

Incentive Stock Options; Nonqualified Stock Options. An Option that the Committee intends to be an "incentive stock option" as defined in Section 422 of the Code (an "Incentive Stock Option") shall only be granted to employees of the Company, any of the Company's present or future parent or subsidiary corporations as defined in Sections 424(e) or (f) of the Code, and any other entities the employees of which are eligible to receive Incentive Stock Options under the Code, and shall be subject to and shall be construed consistently with the requirements of Section 422 of the Code. The aggregate Fair Market Value (determined as of the date of grant) of shares with respect to which incentive stock options (as defined in Section 422 of the Code) are exercisable for the first time by an individual in a calendar year (under all plans of the Company Group) shall not exceed $100,000. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, no Incentive Stock Option shall be granted to an employee if, at the time the Incentive Stock Option is granted, such employee owns stock possessing more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of any member of the Company Group unless (x) the option price is at least 110% of the Fair Market Value of the Shares subject to the Incentive Stock Option at the time the Incentive Stock Option is granted and (y) the Incentive Stock Option is not exercisable after the expiration of five (5) years from the date the Incentive Stock Option is granted. An Option that is not intended to be an Incentive Stock Option shall be designated a "Nonqualified Stock Option." The Company shall have no liability to a Participant, or any other person, if an Option (or any part thereof) that is intended to be an Incentive Stock Option is not for any reason ineligible for incentive stock option treatment under the Code, or if the Option for any reason converts from an Incentive Stock Option to a Nonqualified Stock Option.

3.

Exercise Price. The Committee shall establish the exercise price of each Option or the formula by which such exercise price will be determined. The exercise price shall be specified in the applicable Option agreement. The exercise price shall be not less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the date the Option is granted; provided that if the Committee approves the grant of an Option with an exercise price to be determined on a future date, the exercise price shall be not less than 100% of the Fair Market Value on such future date. The Committee has sole discretion to determine the Fair Market Value for purposes of this Plan, and the Committee's determination is conclusive and binding on the Participant and the Company.

4.

Option Period; Vesting.

a.

General. Each Option shall be exercisable on such conditions, at such times and subject to such other terms as the Committee may specify in the applicable Option agreement; provided, however, that no Option may be granted with a term in excess of ten (10) years, and no extension of the time to exercise an Option shall be enforceable beyond ten (10) years after the grant date of the Option. Subject to the foregoing, the Committee may establish a period or periods with respect to all or any part of the Option during which such Option may not be exercised and may accelerate the right of the Participant to exercise all or any part of the Option not then exercisable. The Committee may also establish a minimum number of Shares which may be purchased at any one time under the Option.

b.

Performance Awards. The Committee may specify that the granting, vesting or exercise conditions of any Option shall be subject to the achievement of one or more performance measures established or approved by the Committee, which may be based on the relative or absolute attainment of specified levels of one or any combination of financial or operating metrics, which may but need not be determined pursuant to generally accepted accounting principles, including without limitation: (i) revenue, (ii) income or earnings, including net income, operating income, earnings before or after interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization or extraordinary or special items, (iii) operating margin or profit margin, (iv) stock price or total stockholder return, (v) cost targets, reductions and savings, expense management, productivity and efficiencies, (vi) improvement of financial ratings, (vii) strategic business criteria and (viii) any other measure selected or approved by the Committee. Such goals may reflect absolute entity or business unit performance, improvements against prior year performance, or performance relative to a peer group of entities or other external measures. The Committee may specify that such performance measures shall be adjusted to exclude any one or more of (A) extraordinary items, (B) gains or losses on the dispositions of discontinued operations, (C) the cumulative effects of changes in accounting principles, (D) the writedown of any asset, (E) fluctuation in foreign currency exchange rates, (F) charges for restructuring and rationalization programs, (G) non-cash asset impairment charges and (H) any other factors as the Committee may determine. Such performance measures: (x) may vary by Participant and may be different for different Options, (y) may be particular to a Participant or the department or other unit in which the Participant works and (z) may cover such periods as may be specified by the Committee. The Committee shall have the authority to make equitable adjustments to the performance goals in recognition of unusual or non-recurring events affecting the Company or the financial statements of the Company, in response to changes in applicable laws or regulations or to account for items of gain, loss or expense determined to be extraordinary or unusual in nature or infrequent in occurrence or related to the disposal of a segment of a business or related to a change in accounting principles.

c.

Termination of Employment. If the Participant ceases to be an employee of any member of the Company Group, or ceases to perform services for any member of the Company Group, for any reason other than Disability or death, then unless the Option agreement provides for a different period following termination of employment, any then outstanding Option held by the Participant shall remain exercisable until the earlier of the date on which such Option would otherwise expire or three (3) months after such termination of employment, but only to the extent such Option was exercisable as of the date of termination of employment.

d.

Disability. If a Participant's employment is terminated by reason of Disability, then unless the Option agreement provides for a different period following termination by Disability, any then outstanding Option held by the Participant shall remain exercisable until the earlier of the date on which such Option would otherwise expire or one (1) year after such termination of employment, but only to the extent such Option was exercisable as of the date of termination of employment.

e.

Death. If a Participant's employment is terminated by death, then unless the Option agreement provides for a different period following termination by death, the representative of the Participant's estate or beneficiaries thereof to whom any Option has been transferred shall have the right to exercise that Options, in whole or in part, until the earlier of the date on which such Option would otherwise expire or one (1) year after the date of death, but only to the extent such Option was exercisable as of the date of death.

5.

Exercise of Options. Options may be exercised by delivery to the Company of a notice of exercise in a form (which may be electronic) approved by the Company, together with payment in full (in the manner specified in Section 6) of the exercise price for the number of shares for which the Option is exercised. Shares of Common Stock subject to the Option will be delivered by the Company as soon as practicable following exercise.

6.

Payment Upon Exercise. Common Stock purchased upon the exercise of an Option granted under this Plan shall be paid for as follows:

a.

in cash or by check, payable to the order of the Company;

b.

to the extent provided for in the applicable Option agreement or approved by the Committee, by delivery of an irrevocable and unconditional undertaking by a creditworthy broker to deliver promptly to the Company sufficient funds to pay the exercise price and any required tax withholding;

c.

to the extent provided for in the applicable Option agreement or approved by the Committee, by delivery of shares of Common Stock owned by the Participant valued at their Fair Market Value, but only if (i) such method of payment is then permitted under applicable law, (ii) such Common Stock, if acquired directly from the Company, was owned by the Participant for at least one year, or for such other minimum period of time established by the Committee and (iii) such Common Stock is not subject to any repurchase, forfeiture, unfulfilled vesting or other similar requirements;

d.

to the extent provided for in the applicable Nonqualified Stock Option agreement or approved by the Committee, by delivery of a notice of "net exercise" to the Company, as a result of which the Participant would receive (i) the number of shares underlying the portion of the Option being exercised, less (ii) such number of shares as is equal to (A) the aggregate exercise price for the portion of the Option being exercised plus any required tax withholding divided by (B) the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the date of exercise;

e.

to the extent permitted by applicable law and provided for in the applicable Option agreement or approved by the Committee, by payment of such other lawful consideration as the Committee may determine; provided, however, that in no event may a promissory note of the Participant be used to pay the Option exercise price; or

f.

by any combination of the above permitted forms of payment.

7.

Non-transferability. An Incentive Stock Option shall not be transferable or assignable by the Participant other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution and shall be exercisable during the Participant's lifetime only by the Participant.

III. MISCELLANEOUS

1.

Effective Date. This Plan shall become effective on November 7, 2025 (the "Effective Date"), provided, however, that if this Plan is not approved by the stockholders of the Company prior to the expiration of the one year period commencing on the Effective Date, this Plan and all Options granted hereunder shall be null and void and shall be of no effect.

2.

Duration of Plan. Unless sooner terminated, this Plan shall remain in effect for a period of ten years after the Effective Date and shall thereafter terminate. No Incentive Stock Options or Nonqualified Stock Options may be granted after the termination of this Plan; provided, however, that except as otherwise provided in Section 1 of this Part III, termination of this Plan shall not affect any Options previously granted, which Options and shall remain in effect until exercised, surrendered or cancelled, or until they have expired, all in accordance with their terms.

3.

Changes in Capital Structure, etc. In the event of changes in the outstanding common shares of the Company by reason of stock dividends, stock splits, recapitalizations, mergers, consolidations, combinations or exchange of shares, separations, reorganizations, or liquidations, the number of Shares available under this Plan in the aggregate and the maximum number of Shares as to which Options may be granted to any Participant shall be correspondingly adjusted by the Committee. The Committee shall make appropriate adjustments in the number of Shares as to which outstanding Options, or portions thereof then unexercised, shall relate, to the end that the Participant's proportionate interest shall be maintained as before the occurrence of such events; such adjustment shall be made without change in the total price applicable to the unexercised portion of Options and with a corresponding adjustment in the Option price per Share. In addition, if the Company is to be consolidated with or acquired by another entity in a merger, sale of all or substantially all of the Company's assets or otherwise, the Committee or the Board of Directors of any entity assuming the obligations of the Company hereunder, may, as to outstanding Options either (i) provide that such Options shall be assumed, or equivalent options shall be substituted, by the acquiring or successor corporation (or an affiliate thereof), (ii) upon written notice to the optionees, provide that all Options must be exercised, to the extent then exercisable, within a specified number of days of the date of such notice, at the end of which period the Options shall terminate, or (iii) terminate all Options in exchange for a cash payment equal to the excess of the Fair Market Value of the Shares subject to such Options (to the extent then exercisable) over the exercise price thereof.

4.

Rights as Stockholder. A Participant entitled to Shares as a result of the exercise of an Option shall not be deemed for any purpose to be, or have rights as, a stockholder of the Company by virtue of such exercise, except to the extent a stock certificate is issued therefor and then only from the date such certificate is issued. No adjustments shall be made for dividends or distributions or other rights for which the record date is prior to the date such stock certificate is issued.

5.

Expenses. The expenses of this Plan shall be paid by the Company.

6.

Withholding. Any person exercising an Option must satisfy all applicable federal, state, and local or other income and employment tax withholding obligations before the Company will deliver stock certificates or otherwise recognize ownership of Common Stock following exercise of the Option. The Company may elect to satisfy the withholding obligations through additional withholding on salary or wages. If the Company elects not to or cannot withhold from other compensation, the Participant must pay the Company the full amount, if any, required for withholding. Payment of withholding obligations is due at the same time as payment of the exercise or purchase price, unless the Company determines otherwise. If provided for in an option agreement or approved by the Committee, a Participant may satisfy the tax obligations in whole or in part by delivery (either by actual delivery or attestation) of shares of Common Stock valued at their fair market value (valued in the manner determined by (or in a manner approved by) the Company). Shares used to satisfy tax withholding requirements cannot be subject to any repurchase, forfeiture, unfulfilled vesting or other similar requirements.

7.

Compliance with Applicable Law. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company shall not be obligated to cause to be issued or delivered any certificates evidencing Shares to be delivered pursuant to the exercise of an Option, unless and until the Company is advised by its counsel that the issuance and delivery of such certificates is in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations of governmental authority. The Company shall in no event be obligated to register any securities pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933 (as now in effect or as hereafter amended) or to take any other action in order to cause the issuance and delivery of such certificates to comply with any such law or regulation. The Committee may require, as a condition of the issuance and delivery of such certificates and in order to ensure compliance with such laws and regulations, that the Participant make such covenants, agreements and representations as the Committee, in its sole discretion, deems necessary or desirable.

8.

Application of Funds. Any cash proceeds received by the Company from the sale of Shares pursuant to Options will be used for general corporate purposes.

9.

Amendment of this Plan. The Committee may from time to time suspend or discontinue this Plan or revise or amend it in any respect whatsoever except that, without approval of the shareholders, no such revision or amendment shall make any changes requiring stockholder approval under Sections 162(m) or 422 of the Code and no changes shall be made to this Plan which shall make this Plan subject to the provisions of Section 409A of the Code. No such suspension, discontinuance, revision or amendment shall in any manner affect any grant theretofore made without the consent of the Participant or the transferee of the Participant, unless necessary to comply with applicable law.

10.

Section 409A Compliance. To the extent that any provision of this Plan violates Section 409A of the Code, such provision shall be deemed inoperative and the remaining provisions of this Plan shall continue to be fully effective.
