Material Legal Proceedings Involving Directors and Executive Officers Currently, there are no material proceedings to which any of our directors, director nominees, officers, affiliates, any owners of record or beneficially of more than five percent of any class of voting securities, or any associate of any such director, director nominee, officer, affiliate, or security holder is a party adverse to us or any of our subsidiaries or has a material interest adverse to us or any of our subsidiaries. Executive Sessions of Our Board Our corporate governance guidelines provide that the non-management directors will meet without management directors in regularly scheduled executive sessions at least quarterly and at such other times as they deem appropriate. To the extent that any non-management directors are not independent directors, the independent directors will also meet in regularly scheduled executive sessions at least once annually.

Mr. Enterline presided over executive sessions of non-management directors and independent directors during fiscal year 2024 and continues to preside over executive sessions of non-management and independent directors.

Nominations of Directors Our nomination process for directors is designed to allow for recruitment procedures that meet the Board’s and the Company’s strategic priorities at a given point in time.

As provided in its charter, the Nominating/Governance Committee identifies and makes recommendations to the Board with respect to nominees for election or re-election to the Board at our annual shareholder meetings.
