DIRECTOR COMPENSATION Fiscal Year 2025 Director Compensation

STOCK OWNERSHIP GUIDELINES To align the interests of our directors with those of our stockholders, the Board concluded that our directors should have a significant financial stake in Common Stock. To further that goal, we maintain stock ownership guidelines for members of the Board. The stock ownership guidelines provide that a non-employee director who has served for five years is expected to have attained and, thereafter, to continuously maintain, minimum ownership of Common Stock equal in value to five times the annual base retainer. The shares counted towards this ownership requirement include (i) shares that such non-employee director elects to receive in lieu of his her cash retainer(s) for Board service, (ii) vested Share Units held by a non-employee director through the 2009 Stock Deferral Plan (or any successor plan thereto), (iii) shares of restricted stock held by a non-employee director that may be subject to transfer restrictions or potential clawbacks, and (iv) shares owned directly by an entity (such as a corporation or foundation) over which a non-employee director shares voting power and/or investment power; and shall exclude shares underlying all other outstanding securities exercisable for, or convertible into, common stock of the Company (including options and restricted stock units). As of September 17, 2025, each non-employee director was in compliance with the applicable stock ownership guidelines or on track to achieve compliance within the allotted five-year time frame.
