TABLE OF CONTENTS Executive Compensation ( continued ) Insider Trading Policy In January 2024, the Board of Directors amended the insider trading policy to, among other things, more closely align with the SEC’s amendments to Rule 10b5-1 promulgated under the Exchange Act. This policy requires pre-clearance of the adoption, amendment or termination of any Rule 10b5-1 trading plan by the Company’s insiders and to formalize the Company’s pre-clearance procedures for transactions in the Company’s securities by persons subject to the policy. In connection with the amendments to the policy, the Audit Committee reviewed and approved in February 2024 conforming changes to the provisions of the Business Conduct Guidelines, in the section captioned “Securities Laws Compliance – Trading” to clarify that the provisions apply to the same persons encompassed under the amended policy. Compensation Policies and Practices as Related to Risk Management The Compensation Committee and our management do not believe that the Company maintains compensation policies or practices that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company. Our employees’ base salaries are fixed in amount and thus we do not believe that they encourage excessive risk-taking. A significant portion of the compensation provided to our employees is in the form of long-term equity-based incentives that we believe are important to help align our employees’ interests with those of our stockholders. We do not believe that these equity-based incentives encourage unnecessary or excessive risk taking because their ultimate value is tied to our stock price. Compensation Committee Report The Compensation Committee has reviewed and discussed the Compensation Discussion and Analysis with management as required by Item 402(b) of Regulation S-K, and based on such review and discussions, the Compensation Committee recommended to the Board of Directors that the Compensation Discussion and Analysis be included in this Proxy Statement for filing with the SEC and incorporated by reference into the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.
