Auditor Independence In our fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, there were no other professional services provided by Ernst & Young LLP or BPM LLP, other than those listed above, that would have required our Audit Committee to consider its compatibility with maintaining the independence of Ernst & Young LLP or BPM LLP. Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures Our Audit Committee is required to pre-approve the audit and non-audit services performed by our independent registered public accounting firm in order to assure that the provision of such services does not impair the auditor’s independence. Any proposed services exceeding pre-approved cost levels require specific pre-approval by our Audit Committee. Our Audit Committee at least annually reviews and provides general pre-approval for the services that may be provided by the independent registered public accounting firm. The term of the general pre-approval is 12 months from the date of approval, unless our Audit Committee specifically provides for a different period. If our Audit Committee has not provided general pre-approval, then the type of service requires specific pre-approval by our Audit Committee. Pursuant to its charter, our Audit Committee has delegated pre-approval authority to the chairperson of our Audit Committee so long as any such pre-approval decisions are presented to the full Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting. All services performed and related fees billed by Ernst & Young LLP and BPM LLP
