ORDER

This 7th day of May 2026, after careful consideration of the parties’ briefs and

the record on appeal, and after oral argument, we find it evident that the judgment

of the Court of Chancery should be affirmed on the basis of and for the reasons stated in its Memorandum Opinion dated September 30, 2025.1 The unjust enrichment

claim is also barred by laches. Like the breach of fiduciary duty claim, the unjust

enrichment claim accrued when the allegedly misleading proxy statement was

disseminated to stockholders. The unjust enrichment claim was not brought within

three years of the proxy’s issuance and tolling does not apply for the reasons stated

in the Court of Chancery’s opinion.2

NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the judgment of the

Court of Chancery is AFFIRMED.

BY THE COURT:

/s/ Collins J. Seitz, Jr. Chief Justice

1 Reilly v. Horn, 2025 WL 2781735 (Del. Ch. Sep. 30, 2025) (“Opinion”). 2 See Pulieri v. Boardwalk Props., LLC, 2015 WL 691449, at *13 (Del. Ch. Feb. 18, 2015) (“an unjust enrichment claim accrues when the wrongful act causing the enrichment and impoverishment occurred”); Vichi v. Koninklijke Philips Elecs. N.V., 62 A.3d 26, 41–42 (Del. Ch. 2012) (for purposes of laches analysis, court looks to the three-year limitations period in 10 Del. C. § 8106 for unjust enrichment claims); Opinion at *6–8.
