## ITEM 1. ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

#### Director Nomination and Qualification
The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee (the “Governance Committee”) of our Board is responsible for identifying, evaluating and recommending to the Board director nominees for election at the Annual Meeting. The Governance Committee considers Board candidates suggested by Board members, management and stockholders. The Governance Committee may also retain a third-party search firm to identify candidates. Based on the Governance Committee’s recommendation, our Board has nominated the following current directors for election at the Annual Meeting: Bradley A. Alford, Peter J. Bensen, Robert J. Coviello, André J. Hawaux, Ruth Kimmelshue, Lawrence E. Kurzius, Paul T. Maass, Timothy R. McLevish, Hala G. Moddelmog, Scott Ostfeld, Norman Prestage and Michael J. Smith. Rita Fisher will not be standing for re-election at the Annual Meeting, and as a result, the Board anticipates reducing the number of directors on the Board to 12 directors following the Annual Meeting. All of the director nominees were elected by stockholders at our 2024 annual meeting of stockholders, except for each of Ms. Kimmelshue and Messrs. Alford, Kurzius, McLevish, Maass, Ostfeld
