 including the executive officers, so that they are either exempt from, or satisfy the requirements of, section 409A of the Code. Executive Stock Ownership Requirements The Company’s executive stock ownership requirements promote alignment of management and stockholder interests. The requirements are based on a multiple of base salary and are measured by the value of Common Stock required to be held.

| Officer Level                                    |     | Target Level 
 (Multiple of 
 Annual       
 Base Salary) |
| Chief Executive Officer                          |     | 5x           |
| Executive Vice Presidents/Senior Vice Presidents |     | 3x           |
| Vice Presidents                                  |     | 1x           |

The stock ownership requirements must be met within the later of: (i) five years after adoption of the guidelines, or (ii) five years after being hired or promoted into the officer position. During the five-year accumulation period, all NEOs are expected to continuously accumulate qualifying equity until they meet the applicable threshold. The five-year accumulation allows for accumulation of shares through earned incentive awards. Executive ownership positions are reviewed on an annual basis. For 2024, all NEOs (except for Mark Suchinski, our former Chief Financial Officer who departed from the Company in 2024) complied with the ownership requirements or were within the five-year accumulation period. The Company may restrict any officer from liquidating any Company stock, except for shares that are sold to meet Company tax-withholding requirements. The Company may modify or waive the requirements of the guidelines at its discretion if it determines that compliance would result in severe hardship for an officer. Note that the Company’s insider trading policy prohibits Company employees from engaging in short sales of the Company’s securities, and hedging and pledging the Company’s securities. For additional information on this policy, see “Policy Prohibiting Short-Selling, Hedging, and Pledging.”
