The guidelines also provide that directors and officers must retain any net shares that vest or are exercised until such time as the appropriate ownership levels are met. Shares that would be issuable upon the vesting of time-vesting RSUs are considered beneficially owned for purposes of the policy. Neither stock options nor PSUs that have outstanding performance requirements are included in beneficial ownership.

As of March 1, 2025, all directors and officers are in compliance with the policy.
