### RATIFICATION OF APPOINTMENT OF

### INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
Our audit committee has appointed KPMG LLP (KPMG) as our independent registered public accounting firm to perform the audit of our consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025, and we are asking you and our other stockholders to ratify this appointment. KPMG has served as our independent registered public accounting firm since 2014.

Our Board of Directors is submitting the appointment of KPMG to our stockholders because we value our stockholders’ views on our independent registered public accounting firm and as a matter of good corporate governance. Notwithstanding the appointment of KPMG, and even if our stockholders ratify the appointment, our audit committee, in its discretion, may appoint another independent registered public accounting firm at any time during our fiscal year if our audit committee believes that such a change would be in the best interests of our company and our stockholders. If our stockholders do not ratify the appointment of KPMG, our audit committee may reconsider the appointment. Representatives of KPMG will be present during the Annual Meeting, and they will have an opportunity to make a statement and will be available to respond to appropriate questions from our stockholders.

Policy on Audit Committee Pre-Approval of Audit and Permissible Non-Audit Services of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

We have adopted a policy under which our audit committee must pre-approve all audit and permissible non-audit services to be provided by the independent registered public accounting firm. As part of its review, our audit committee also considers whether the categories of pre-approved services are consistent with the rules on accountant independence of the SEC and the PCAOB. Our audit committee has pre-approved all services performed by KPMG during fiscal year 2024 in accordance with the pre-approval policy.
