• retaining and determining the compensation of any compensation consultants.

Pursuant to the Compensation Committee’s charter, the Compensation Committee has the authority to retain or obtain the advice of compensation consultants, legal counsel and other advisors to assist in carrying out its responsibilities. In connection with our IPO and for 2024, the Compensation Committee engaged Semler Brossy (“Semler”), a compensation consulting firm, to assist in making decisions regarding the compensation to provide our executive officers and non-employee directors. Semler prepared an initial compensation assessment comparing our executives’ and directors’ compensation to that of a group of peer companies within our industry. In addition, Semler met with the Compensation Committee to discuss our executive compensation and director compensation programs. Semler reports directly to the Compensation Committee.

The Compensation Committee may delegate its authority under its charter to one or more subcommittees as it deems appropriate from time to time.

The members of our Compensation Committee are Jeffrey T. Jackson, Neil B. Wedewer, and Neill B. Faucett. Mr. Jackson serves as the Chair of the Compensation Committee. For so long as the Company is a controlled company under the rules of the NYSE, the Committee members need not satisfy the independence requirements of the NYSE. Each of Mr. Jackson, Mr. Wedewer, and Mr. Faucett qualifies as an independent director, including under NYSE’s heightened independence standards for members of a compensation committee. Each Mr. Jackson, Mr. Wedewer, and Mr. Faucett qualifies as a “non-employee director” as defined in Rule 16b-3 of the Exchange Act.

The Compensation Committee met four times in 2024.
