 in your own name, they will not be voted unless you provide a proxy or vote virtually at the Annual Meeting. Brokerage firms generally have the authority to vote customers’ non-voted shares on certain “routine” matters. If your shares are held in the name of the brokerage firm, the brokerage firm can vote your shares for the ratification of Deloitte as our registered independent public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2025 (Proposal No. 3) if you do not timely provide your voting instructions, because this matter is considered “routine” under the applicable rules. The other items (Proposals No. 1 and 2) are not considered “routine” and therefore may not be voted upon by your broker without instructions. 5 What constitutes a quorum for the Annual Meeting? As of the close of business on the record date for the Annual Meeting, there were 66,878,728 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. In order to conduct the Annual Meeting, a majority of the votes entitled to be cast must be present in person, including virtually, or by proxy.

A broker “non-vote” occurs when a bank, broker or other nominee whoholds shares for another person has not received voting instructions from the owner of the shares and, under the applicable rules, does not have discretionary authority to vote on a matter. If a quorum is not present, the Annual Meeting will be adjourned until a quorum is obtained. No business may be conducted at the Annual Meeting if a quorum is not present. What vote is required to approve an item of business at the Annual Meeting? Election of Directors (Proposal No. 1). The affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast at the Annual Meeting and at which a quorum is present is required to elect a director. For purposes of this vote, abstentions and broker non-votes will not be counted as votes cast and will have no effect on the results of the vote for this proposal, although they will be considered present for the purpose of determining the presence of a quorum. Advisory Vote on NEO Compensation (Proposal No. 2). The affirmative
