### COMMITTEES OF THE BOARD
The Board of Directors has four standing Committees: Audit and Finance, Compensation, Corporate Governance, and Executive Committee. All members of the Audit and Finance, Compensation, and Corporate Governance Committees are non-employee directors and meet the independence standards adopted by the Board in compliance with NYSE listing standards for that Committee. The Executive Committee includes our Executive Chairman, who is not independent. While each Committee has specific, designated responsibilities, each Committee may act on behalf of the entire Board to the extent designated by its respective charter or otherwise by the Board. Each Committee may also delegate its authority to a subcommittee, or to any other person, to the extent such Committee determines that delegation to be appropriate and permitted by applicable law, regulations, and listing standards. The Corporate Governance Committee annually reviews and makes recommendations on the composition of our standing Committees.

Each director attended at least 75% of all FY25 meetings of the Board and Committees of which they were then members. Our Committees also regularly invite all other Board members to join their meetings and, as necessary, otherwise report on their activities to the entire Board. The full Board met five times in FY25. The table below provides information about current membership and the meetings of the Committees during FY25:
