 2025, the record date for the Annual Meeting, are entitled to notice of, and to attend and vote at the Annual Meeting, or any postponements or adjournments of the meeting. At the close of business on the record date, 56,627,253 shares of our common stock were issued and outstanding. Our shareholders are entitled to one vote per share of our common stock owned on the record date for each matter properly presented at the Annual Meeting. Holders of our common stock have no cumulative voting rights. What is the difference between a shareholder of record and a beneficial owner? If your shares are registered directly in your name with our transfer agent, EQ Shareowner Services, you are considered, with respect to those shares, the “shareholder of record.” If your shares are held by a brokerage firm, bank, trustee, other agent or record holder, each sometimes referred to as a “nominee,” you are considered the “beneficial owner” of shares held in “street name.” The Notice has been forwarded to you by your nominee who is considered, with respect to those shares, the shareholder of record. As the beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your nominee on how to vote your shares by following their instructions for voting by telephone or on the Internet or, if you specifically request a copy of the printed materials, you may use the voting instruction card included in such materials. What constitutes a quorum? A quorum will be present at the Annual Meeting if holders of a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of our common stock on the record date are represented at the Annual Meeting by attendance or by proxy. If a quorum is not present at the Annual Meeting, we expect to postpone or adjourn the Annual Meeting to solicit additional proxies. Abstentions and broker non-votes (as described below) will be counted as shares present and entitled to vote for the purpose of determining the presence or absence of a quorum. What is the effect of “broker non-votes” or abstentions? A “broker non-vote” occurs when a bank, broker, trustee, agent or other holder of record holding shares for a beneficial owner withholds its vote on a particular proposal because that holder does not have the discretionary voting power for such proposal and has not received instructions from the beneficial owner. If your broker is the shareholder of record, your
