#### Information About the Annual Meeting and Voting
| How do I vote my 401(k) shares? |

If you participate in our 401(k) Retirement Savings Plan, as amended and restated (401(k) Plan), you will receive a single proxy card (together with the proxy materials) or Notice that covers all shares credited to your plan account(s) and shares that you own of record that are registered in the same name. If your plan account(s) are registered in different names, you will receive separate proxy cards or Notices for your record and plan holdings. You may vote your shares by following the instructions provided in your proxy card or Notice and utilizing the credentials provided therein. Your vote will serve to instruct the trustees and fiduciaries of our 401(k) Plan how to vote any shares of our common stock held in our 401(k) Plan on your behalf. Shares of our common stock held in our 401(k) Plan must be voted on or before 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on April 28, 2025. The trustee and fiduciaries of our 401(k) Plan will vote shares for which timely instructions are not received in the same proportion as other plan shares that were voted.

| What happens if I don’t specify how I want my shares voted on one or all of the proposals? |

If you are the stockholder of record and you sign, date and return your proxy and do not mark how you want to vote, your proxy will be counted as a vote “FOR” all of the nominees for directors, “FOR” the compensation of our named executive officers, “FOR” the ratification of our independent registered public accounting firm, Ernst & Young, and as an “ABSTAIN” for the stockholder proposal titled “Support Simple Majority Vote.” If you hold your shares in “street name,” please see the discussion above on “What discretion does my broker have to vote my shares held in ‘street name?’”

| Can I change my vote or revoke my proxy after I have already voted or given my proxy? |

Yes. If you are a stockholder of record, you may change your vote or revoke your proxy at any time before the proxy is voted at the Annual Meeting. To revoke a previously submitted proxy and change your vote, you may:

• mail a written notice “revoking” your earlier vote to Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. (Broadridge), 51 Mercedes Way, Edgewood, NY 11717;

• submit
