The tables include only the

of vested or earned, but unpaid, amounts owed to the applicable named executive officer as of December 31, 2024 (including, for example,
any annual bonus earned but not yet paid as of such date, dividend equivalents relating to dividends declared but not paid as of such
date, vested but unsettled RSUs or PSUs, employer 401(k) matches, and the value of the shares underlying the DSUs that will be paid to
the applicable named executive officer upon separation of service. See “Nonqualified Deferred Compensation” above for the
value of such DSUs as of December 31, 2024).
