 shareholders in the past (the Say-on-Pay proposal received the approval of 94.4% of the votes cast at the Company’s 2024 Annual Meeting of Shareholders), the Compensation Committee has not taken any actions specifically in response to the previous shareholder advisory votes on executive compensation.

In accordance with Section 14A of the Exchange Act we ask our shareholders to vote on the following resolution at the Annual Meeting:

“RESOLVED, that the Company’s shareholders approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of the Named Executive Officers, as disclosed in the Company’s Proxy Statement for the 2025 Annual Meeting of Shareholders pursuant to the compensation disclosure rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission set forth in Item 402 of Regulation S-K, including the Executive Compensation section, the 2024 Summary Compensation Table and the other related tables and disclosure.”

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTEFORTHE APPROVAL OF THE COMPENSATION OF OUR NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS, AS DISCLOSED IN THIS PROXY STATEMENT.

PROPOSAL 4

ADVISORY VOTE ON FREQUENCY OF SAY-ON-PAY VOTE</div>

The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act also provides that shareholders be given the opportunity to vote, on a non-binding, advisory basis, for their preference as to how frequently we should seek future advisory votes on the compensation of our Named Executive Officers, as disclosed in accordance with the compensation disclosure rules of the SEC, which we refer to as an advisory vote on executive compensation. This shareholder advisory vote on frequency is required to be conducted every six years.

By voting with respect to this Proposal 4, shareholders may indicate whether they would prefer that we conduct future advisory votes on executive compensation once every year, once every two years or once every three years. Shareholders also may, if they wish, abstain from casting a vote on this proposal.

Our Board has determined that an annual advisory vote on executive compensation will allow our shareholders to provide timely, direct input on the Company’s executive compensation philosophy, policies and practices as disclosed in the proxy statement each year. The Board believes that an annual vote is therefore consistent with the Company’s efforts to engage in an ongoing dialogue with our shareholders on executive compensation and corporate governance matters.

We recognize that shareholders may have different views as to the best approach for the Company; therefore, we look forward to hearing from our shareholders as to their preferences on the frequency
