| Executive Summary |

#### Continued Emphasis on Pay for Performance
We believe the design of our executive compensation program is instrumental in helping us successfully execute our strategic growth drivers and reward financial performance commensurate with actual results. 2024 was a year of mixed performance. Our net revenue growth and adjusted operating income performance resulted in near, but below, target payouts on our annual cash incentive and the relative underperformance of our stock resulted in below target payouts for our long-term MSUs.
