In addition, our 2023 Incentive Stock Plan (and its predecessor plan, the 2003 Incentive Stock Plan, under which awards remain outstanding), annual incentive plan and executive nonqualified retirement plans provide that certain compensation payable under the plans may be forfeited or recovered in the event an award recipient engages in various types of conduct deemed detrimental to the Company’s interest, including theft or fraud against the Company and engaging in competition with the Company.

Accounting Implications The Compensation Committee considers the accounting impact reflected in our financial statements when establishing the amount and forms of long-term and equity compensation.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation No member of the Compensation Committee during 2024 had a relationship that requires disclosure as a Compensation Committee interlock. Compensation and Risk We believe that our compensation programs create appropriate incentives to drive sustained, long-term increases in shareholder value. These programs have been designed and administered in a manner that discourages undue risk-taking by employees. Relevant features of these programs include:

| ✓ | Benchmarking of individual executive pay against market data for comparable executive roles at an appropriate set of peer companies; |

| ✓ | Incorporation of an individual performance assessment for executives as a critical factor in the annual incentive calculation, thereby enabling the Compensation Committee to direct a zero payout to any executive in any year,
