Policy on Audit Committee Pre-Approval of Audit and Permissible Non-Audit Services

Pursuant to its charter, our Audit Committee must pre-approve all audit and permissible non-audit services to be provided by our independent registered public accounting firm. As part of this review, our Audit Committee also considers whether the categories of pre-approved services are consistent with the rules on accountant independence of the SEC and the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board ("PCAOB"). Our Audit Committee has pre-approved all services performed since the pre-approval policy was adopted.

In addition, in the event time constraints require pre-approval prior to our Audit Committee's next scheduled meeting, our Audit Committee has authorized its Chairperson to pre-approve services. Services pre-approved by the Chairperson are to be reported to the Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting.

#### 122025 Proxy Statement
| Proposal Two: Ratification of the Appointment of Our Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm |

#### Ratification of the Appointment of PwC
The affirmative vote of a majority of the combined voting power of the outstanding shares of our Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock present virtually or represented by proxy and entitled to vote on the proposal at the Annual Meeting will be required to ratify the appointment of PwC. Abstentions will have the same effect as a vote against the proposal. We do not expect any broker non-votes on this proposal.

Unless you direct otherwise through your proxy voting instructions, the persons named as proxies will vote all proxies received FOR the ratification of the appointment of PwC.

If our stockholders fail to ratify the appointment of PwC, our Audit Committee will reconsider whether to retain the firm. Even if the selection is ratified, our Audit Committee, in its discretion, may direct the appointment of a different independent registered public accounting firm at any time during the year if it determines that such a change would be in our best interests and the best interests of our stockholders.
