 the Company’s Code of Ethics, the Company’s Corporate Governance Guidelines, and the criteria set forth above for director nominees. Moreover, each director possesses the following critical personal qualities and attributes that we believe are essential for the proper functioning of the Board to allow it to fulfill its duties for our shareholders including accountability, ethical leadership, governance, integrity, risk management, and sound business judgment. In addition, our directors have the confidence to assess and challenge the way things are done and recommend alternative solutions, a keen awareness of our business and social realities of the environment in which we operate, the independence and high-performance standards necessary to fulfill the Board’s oversight function, and the humility, professional maturity, and style to interface openly and constructively with other directors. Finally, the director biographies below include a non-exclusive list of other key experiences and qualifications that further qualify the individual to serve on the Board. These collective qualities, skills, experiences, and attributes are essential to our Board’s ability to exercise its oversight function for the Company and its shareholders, and guide the long-term sustainable, dependable performance of the Company. Subject to any earlier resignation or removal in accordance with the terms of our Certificate and Bylaws, our Class I directors will serve until this Annual Meeting of shareholders, our Class II directors will serve until the annual meeting of shareholders to be held in 2026, and our Class III directors will serve until the annual meeting of shareholders to be held in 2027. However, if Proposal 4 is approved at the Annual Meeting, the Company currently intends to phase out this classified Board structure, as further described herein. In addition, our Certificate currently provides that our directors may be removed only for cause upon the affirmative vote of at least 66 2∕ 3% of the total voting power of all outstanding shares of stock entitled to vote thereon, voting together as a single class. However, if Proposal 4 is approved at the Annual Meeting, the proposed Declassification Amendment (as defined below) will amend such provision to provide that, beginning with the 2028 annual meeting of shareholders (that is, the first annual meeting of shareholders at which the Board will no longer be classified), a director may be removed from office with or without cause. In addition, the proposed Supermajority Elimination Amendments defined and described in Proposal 5 would, among other things, amend Article VI such that the removal of directors would require the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the total voting power of the then-outstanding shares of stock
