We are pleased to take advantage of Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules that allow us to provide our notice of annual meeting of stockholders, proxy statement and 2024 annual report to stockholders online, with paper copies available free of charge upon request. On or about January 10, 2025, we began mailing a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials (the “Notice of Internet Availability”), instead of a paper copy of our proxy materials. The Notice of Internet Availability contains instructions on how to access these documents and how to cast your vote via the Internet. The Notice of Internet Availability also contains instructions on how to request a paper copy of our proxy materials.

This proxy statement and accompanying form of proxy are dated January 10, 2025, and are expected to be first made available to stockholders on or about
