The average age of our directors, including our director nominees, is 62 years. The average tenure of our directors, including our director nominees as of the 2025 Annual Meeting, is expected to be approximately 10 years.

Our Board of Directors presently consists of seven members: Michael G. Barnes, Paul M. Friedman, Lesley Goldwasser, Jonathan Ilany, Randy Maultsby, Dominique Mielle and Bradley E. Smith. The Board of Directors has affirmatively determined that Messrs. Friedman and Smith and Mses. Goldwasser and Mielle are independent as that term is defined in Nasdaq Stock Market Rules and SEC regulations.

The Board of Directors currently has two standing committees: an Audit Committee and a CNG Committee.

During fiscal 2024, our Board of Directors held five meetings, the Audit Committee held five meetings and the CNG Committee held five formal meetings and several informal discussions among the members of the CNG Committee and its independent compensation consultant. All of our directors during fiscal 2024 attended at least 75% of the aggregate number of meetings of our Board of Directors and each committee of the Board of Directors on which they served during fiscal 2024.

#### Audit Committee
Our Board of Directors has established an Audit Committee that is currently comprised of our four independent directors: Messrs. Friedman and Smith and Mses. Goldwasser and Mielle. The current Audit Committee members satisfy the definition of independence set forth in the Nasdaq Stock Market Rules and Rule 10A-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Mr. Friedman was appointed as the Chairman of the Audit Committee on August 24, 2020. Our Board of Directors has determined that Messrs. Friedman and Smith and Mses. Goldwasser and Mielle are each an “audit committee financial expert” as that term is defined in the Exchange Act.
