 Incentive Plan, including the Company’s named executive officers, Lester R. Brafman, Daniel G. Cohen and Joseph W. Pooler, Jr. As of April 10, 2025, all of our directors (five persons), executive officers (three persons) and employees of the Company and its affiliates (approximately 117 persons) were eligible to participate in the 2020 Long-Term Incentive Plan. New Plan Benefits Because the grant of awards under the 2020 Long-Term Incentive Plan is within the discretion of the Compensation Committee, the Company cannot determine the dollar value or number of shares of common stock that will in the future be received by or allocated to any participant in 2020 Long-Term Incentive Plan. See “Executive Compensation — Compensation of Executive Officers, Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year-End 2024 and Compensation of Directors,” which provides information on the equity awards granted to the named executive officers in 2024 under the 2020 Long-Term Incentive Plan.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

PAY VERSUS PERFORMANCE As required by Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K, we are providing the following information regarding the relationship between executive compensation and our financial performance for each of the last three completed fiscal years. In determining the “compensation actually paid” to our named executive officers, we are required to make various adjustments to amounts that have been previously reported in the Summary Compensation Table in previous years, as the SEC’s valuation methods for this section differ from those required in the Summary Compensation Table. The table below summarize compensation values both previously reported in our Summary Compensation Table, as well as the adjusted values required in this section for the 2022, 2023 and 2024 fiscal years. Note that compensation for our named executive officers other than our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) is reported as an average. For all periods presented below, Lester R. Brafman was our CEO, and Daniel G. Cohen and Joseph W. Pooler, Jr. were our non-CEO named executive officers.**
