 discretionary authority to vote on the election of our directors, the advisory vote on the compensation of our named executive officers, or the Stockholder Proposal. A broker “non-vote”is not counted for purposes of voting on these matters. How Shares Will be Voted Stockholders of record.If you are a stockholder of record and you:

| • |     | indicate when voting via the Internet or by telephone that you wish to vote as recommended by our Board of Directors; or |

| • |     | sign and return a proxy card without giving specific voting instructions; |

then the proxy holders will vote your shares FOR the election of the nominees described in this proxy statement, FOR the advisory vote to approve the compensation of our named executive officers, FOR the ratification of the appointment of Deloitte & Touche LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for 2025, and AGAINST the Stockholder Proposal. Beneficial owners.If you hold shares in street name (in the name of a broker or other nominee), you must give instructions to your bank or broker on how you would like your shares to be voted.

Thus, if a bank or broker holds your shares and you do not instruct the bank or broker how to vote on these matters, no votes will be cast on your behalf.

Savings and Profit Sharing Plan for Hourly Employees (collectively, the “Plans”), you may have voting rights regarding shares of our common stock credited to your account in the Plans. In order to permit the trustee to tally and vote the shares held in the Plans (“Plan Shares”), your instructions, whether by Internet, by telephone, or by proxy card, must be submitted on or prior to 10:00 a.m. Eastern Daylight Time on April 29, 2025. If you do not instruct the trustee how to vote, your Plan Shares will be voted by the trustee in the same proportion that it votes Plan Shares for those accounts in the
