#### Chair Emeritus
Our Chair Emeritus is entitled to attend Board meetings in an advisory capacity, but does not vote on Board matters.

Dr. John C. Malone, who has served as a director since 2008, informed the Company that he would not be standing for re-election at the 2025 Annual Meeting. Dr. Malone’s pivotal role in the cable television industry since its inception has solidified his standing as one of the preeminent figures in the media and telecommunications industry. In recognition of Dr. Malone’s service to the Company and his continued interest in contributing to and supporting the Company with his counsel, the Board designated Dr. Malone as Chair Emeritus of the Board, effective following the 2025 Annual Meeting. As Chair Emeritus, Dr. Malone will continue to regularly attend Board meetings and provide strategic counsel and support to the Board and management, ensuring that our stockholders continue to benefit from his breadth of industry knowledge, sophisticated problem solving, and risk assessment skills.
