 and Accounting Considerations
While our compensation committee generally considers the tax and accounting implications of its executive compensation decisions, neither element was a material consideration in the compensation awarded to our named executive officers in 2024.

#### Compensation Practices and Risk
As part of its responsibilities, the compensation committee reviews the impact of our executive compensation program and the associated incentives to determine whether they present a significant risk to us. The compensation committee has concluded, based on its reviews and analysis of our compensation policies and procedures, that such policies and procedures are not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on us. In making this determination, our compensation committee considered the following:

• our use of different types of compensation vehicles provides a balance of long-term and short-term incentives with fixed and variable components;

• our grant of equity-based awards with time-based vesting, which encourage our named executive officers to look to long-term appreciation in equity values;

• our annual bonus determinations for each employee are dependent on the achievement of company goals, which we believe promote long-term value;

• our compensation committee’s ability to exercise discretion in determining cash bonus payouts and long-term incentive awards for executive officers other than the Chief Executive Officer;

• our system of internal control over financial reporting and Code of Conduct, among other things, reduce the likelihood of manipulation of our financial performance to enhance payments under any of our incentive plans; and

• our prohibition on hedging or pledging of company stock.

### Overview of Our Other Policies and Practices
Highlighted policies and practices that we use to ensure effective governance of compensation plans and decisions include:

• our compensation committee has the authority to hire independent counsel and other advisors;

• our compensation committee conducts a regular review and assessment of risk as it relates to our compensation policies and practices;

• as part of our Insider Trading Policy, our executive officers are prohibited from engaging in any hedging transactions of our common stock, including using prepaid variable forward contracts, equity swaps, collars, and exchange funds, or from pledging our common stock;

• we have no perquisites other than broad-based health, relocation, 401(k) plan and insurance-related benefits that we make available to all of our employees;

• our 2018 Plan prohibits option repricing (absent stockholder approval) and option backdating;

• our employment agreements do not provide for tax gross-ups;

• all of our non-employee directors are independent, including all members of our compensation committee; and
