#### Chief Executive Officer Pay Ratio
As required by Section 953(b) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the “Dodd-Frank Act”) and applicable SEC rules, we are providing the following information about the relationship of the annual total compensation of our employees and the annual total compensation of our Chief Executive Officer and President, Barry Sloane.

For fiscal year 2024, the median of the annual total compensation of all of our employees (other than Mr. Sloane, our Chief Executive Officer) was $90,000 and the annual total compensation of our Chief Executive Officer, as reported in the Summary Compensation Table, was $700,000. Based on this information, our Chief Executive Officer’s 2024 annual total compensation was approximately 7.8 times that of the median of the 2024 annual total compensation of all of our employees.

We selected December 31, 2024 as the date used to identify our “median employee” whose annual total compensation was the median of the annual total compensation of all our and our consolidated subsidiaries’ employees (other than our Chief Executive Officer) for 2024 . As of December 31, 2024 , our employee population consiste d of 591 individuals who are located in our Lake Success, New York; Orlando, Florida; Boca Raton, Florida; Miami, Florida; and Wilmington, North Carolina, offices, as well as individuals who work remotely out of their residences in various states. To identify our median employee, we compared the annual total compensation for each of our employees, as determined in accordance with the requirements of Item 402(c)(2)(x) of Regulation S-K, which included salary and cash bonus. In making this determination, we annualized the compensation of 121 employees who were hired in 2024 but did not work for us the entire fiscal year.
