(1) Mr. Walrath did not receive a salary in fiscal 2024 or 2025.

The total base salaries earned by our named executive officers in fiscal 2025 are set forth in the “Summary Compensation Table” below.

#### Cash Incentive Compensation
We use cash incentive compensation to motivate our named executive officers to achieve our annual financial objectives while making progress towards our longer-term strategic and growth goals. Accordingly, cash incentive compensation is used to create meaningful differences in total cash compensation to reflect differences in business results in a given year. Our executive bonus plan allows our compensation committee to provide cash incentive compensation to employees approved by our compensation committee, including our named executive officers.

Our compensation committee administers our omnibus employee incentive plan (the “Employee Incentive Plan”). Generally in the first or second quarter of each fiscal year, following the Board of Director’s approval of our annual operating plan, our compensation committee adopts an incentive compensation plan for executives for the applicable fiscal year under our Employee Incentive Plan (the “executive bonus plan”). As a part of creating the executive bonus plan, the compensation committee establishes the plan participants, the size of the target cash incentive compensation pool, the performance goals to be used to determine whether to make payouts, the associated target levels for each performance goal, and the potential payouts based on actual performance for the fiscal year. The compensation committee in its sole discretion may determine the performance goals (if any) applicable to any award or portion of an award, which may include the attainment of one or more financial, operational, or business objectives. The performance goals may be consistent across all Employee Incentive Plan participants or differ from participant to participant and from award to award.

Generally, in the second quarter of each fiscal year, our compensation committee establishes target annual cash incentive compensation opportunities for each named executive officer. Adjustments to a named executive officer’s compensation made in connection with this review is generally effective as of May 1 of the fiscal year and, unless further adjusted by the compensation committee, remains in effect for the remainder of that fiscal year until May 1 of the subsequent fiscal year. The target annual cash incentive compensation opportunities for each named executive officer for any fiscal year is subject to the terms of the executive bonus plan for that fiscal
