|                          | If a director serves as Chair of multiple Committees, the director 
 will only receive one additional cash retainer.                    
 Directors do not receive meeting fees.                             
 *  The Chair may elect to receive this cash retainer as equity.    |                           |         |       |

<div align='center'>Cash retainers are paid on a quarterly basis. In lieu of the annual cash retainer, pursuant to the Amended and Restated Deferred Compensation Plan for Non-Management Directors, directors may elect to receive shares of deferred stock annually payable in arrears. Deferred stock awards are granted effective immediately following each annual meeting of stockholders. Shares of deferred stock are eligible to receive dividends that are accrued at the dividend payment date in the form of dividend equivalent units (“DEUs”). When dividends are paid on our common stock, we accrue the value of the dividend and issue a number of DEUs equal to the accrued dividend value. DEUs are subject to the same terms as the original grant of the underlying deferred stock. All deferred stock awards and DEUs accrued are distributed to a director in the form of shares of common stock six months following the date they cease to serve on the Board. Mr. Abrams-Rivera, who is our CEO, did not receive payment for his service as a director in 2024. DIRECTOR STOCK OWNERSHIP GUIDELINES To strengthen alignment of directors’ interests with those of our stockholders, effective beginning in fiscal year 2024, our stock ownership guidelines require directors that receive compensation for service as directors to hold shares of our common stock in an amount equal to a specified multiple of their annual cash retainer, as follows. All of our current directors are in compliance with the ownership guidelines.</div>
