 for all of 2024. We then calculated the 2024 total compensation for the 2024 median employee using the same methodology as required for the 2024 Summary Compensation Table.

In 2024, the total compensation of our median employee, excluding the chief executive officer, as calculated using Summary Compensation Table requirements, was $106,506; the total compensation for Mr. Nia, who was serving as our chief executive officer on December 31, 2024, the date that our median employee was identified, was $7,393,104, as reported in the Summary Compensation Table and adjusting Mr. Nia’s base salary to annualize it in accordance with Instruction 2 to Item 402(u) of Regulation S-K; and the ratio of the chief executive officer’s total compensation for 2024 to the 2024 total compensation for the median employee was approximately 69-to-1.

#### PAY VERSUS PERFORMANCE
As required by Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K, the information below reflects the relationship between the executive compensation actually paid by us (“CAP”) to our CEO, as principal executive officer, and the other named executive officers (“Other NEOs”) and our financial performance for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, 2022, 2021 and 2020.

The disclosures included in this section are required by technical SEC rules and do not necessarily align with how the Company or the Compensation Committee views the link between our performance and the compensation of our NEOs. The Compensation Committee did not consider the required pay versus performance disclosures when making its compensation decisions for any of the years presented.

For information regarding the decisions made by our Compensation Committee with respect to the compensation of our NEOs for each fiscal year, including alignment with Company performance, please see the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” section of the proxy statement for the fiscal years covered.
