#### Share Usage, Burn Rate and Dilution Information
Our Compensation and Talent Management Committee, with the assistance of its independent compensation consultant, determined the number of shares available for issuance under the 2018 Plan based on projected equity awards to certain members of our Executive Committee, including our executive officers, and certain of our Directors. We anticipate that if the 2018 Plan is approved, the number of shares available for issuance thereunder will be sufficient to provide equity incentives to this group for 2025.

In evaluating whether to adopt the 2018 Plan, our Board considered the dilutive effect of equity awards, including the Company's equity overhang and annual share usage.

Overhang. As of December 31, 2024, we had approximately 13.5 million shares of our common stock subject to outstanding equity awards or available for future equity awards under the Current Plan, which represented approximately 10.8% of fully diluted shares of common stock outstanding (or the “overhang percentage”).

As of March 10, 2025, the record date for our meeting, we had approximately 12.5 million shares of our common stock subject to outstanding equity awards or available for future equity awards under the Current Plan, which represented an overhang percentage of approximately 10.1% based on 111,795,256 shares outstanding as of March 10, 2025.

The 6.0 million new shares proposed to be included in the 2018 Plan's share reserve would increase the overhang percentage by an additional 4.1% to approximately 14.2%.

Share Usage. Significant Historical Award Information . The annual usage under our equity compensation program for the last three fiscal years was as follows:
