In reviewing prospective nominees, the Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee also reviews the number of public company boards on which a director nominee serves to determine if the nominee will have the ability to devote adequate time to the work of the Board of Directors and its committees. The Company’s Corporate Governance Guidelines and the Company’s Audit Committee Charter provide that members of the Audit Committee may not be members of the audit committee of more than two other public companies unless such other memberships have been disclosed to the Board of Directors and the Board of Directors has determined that such simultaneous service does not impair the ability of such member to effectively serve on the Company’s Audit Committee. In addition, the Company’s Corporate Governance Guidelines provide that non-management directors may not serve on more than four other boards of public companies (excluding the Company’s Board of Directors) and that management directors may not serve on more than two boards of public companies (including the Company’s Board of Directors). On the basis of the information gathered in this process, the Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee will determine which nominees to recommend for election to the Board of Directors. Recommendations and related information received prior to any Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee meeting where director nominees are to be considered will be considered at that meeting. The Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee uses the same process for evaluating all nominees, regardless of the source of the recommendation. This process includes, among other things, personal interviews, discussions with professional references, background checks, credit checks and resume verification. The Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee has not received any recommendation for a director nominee for the Annual Meeting from any stockholder or group of stockholders. Role in Oversight of Sustainability Reporting and Policies and Procedures The Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee’s Charter codifies the Committee’s role in overseeing the Company’s sustainability reporting and its policies and procedures with respect to its sustainability and corporate responsibility activities. In February 2025, the Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee’s Charter was amended to further describe the ESG oversight responsibilities of the Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee in working with management to review and discuss the Company’s sustainability initiatives and practices and the Company’s progress toward achieving those practices. The Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee also reviews and assesses the Company’s annual Corporate Responsibility Report prior to its publication, the latest which has been published in June 2024.
