TABLE OF CONTENTS

Proposal 3: Ratification of Appointment of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

Our Audit Committee has appointed PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (“PwC”) as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025. Our Board has directed that this appointment be submitted to our stockholders for ratification at the Annual Meeting. Although ratification of our appointment of PwC is not required, we value the opinions of our stockholders and believe that stockholder ratification of our appointment is a good corporate governance practice.

While PwC has been retained as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm continuously since 2015, in accordance with SEC rules and PwC policies, the firm’s lead engagement partner rotates every five years. Neither PwC nor any of its members has any direct or indirect financial interest in or any connection with us in any capacity other than as our auditors, providing audit and non-audit services. A representative of PwC is expected to attend the 2025 Annual Meeting and be available to respond to appropriate questions from stockholders.

In the event that the appointment of PwC is not ratified by the stockholders, the Audit Committee will consider this fact when it appoints the independent auditors for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026. Even if the appointment of PwC is ratified, the Audit Committee retains the discretion to appoint a different independent auditor at any time if it determines that such a change is in the interest of the Company.
