 nominated to be elected by our stockholders to hold office until the Annual Meeting of Stockholders to be held in 2028 and until each such director’s respective successor is elected and qualified or until each such director’s earlier death, resignation or removal.

We currently have ten (10) directors on our Board. The Board has nominated Kevin Charlton, John Kedzierski, Kimberly Sheehy, and Bilal Zuberi for election as Class I Directors at the Annual Meeting who have served on our Board since 2021, 2024, 2021 and 2021 respectively.

As set forth in our Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, the Board of Directors is currently divided into three classes with staggered, three-year terms. At each annual meeting of stockholders, the successors to directors whose terms then expire will be elected to serve from the time of election and qualification until the third annual meeting following election.

The current class structure is as follows:

• Class I, whose term will expire at the Annual Meeting and, if elected at the Annual Meeting, whose subsequent term will expire in 2028;

• Class II, whose term will expire at the 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders; and

• Class III, whose current term will expire at the 2027 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

Our Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and Amended and Restated Bylaws provide that the authorized number of directors may be changed from time to time by the Board of Directors. Our directors may be removed only for cause by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds (66 and 2∕3%) of our outstanding voting stock entitled to vote in the election of directors.

In the event that any of Kevin Charlton, John Kedzierski, Kimberly Sheehy, and Bilal Zuberi should become unable to serve, or for good cause will not serve, as a director, it is intended that votes will be cast for a substitute nominee designated by the Board of Directors or the Board may elect to reduce its size. The Board of Directors has no reason to believe that any of these directors will be unable to serve if elected and each director has consented to being named in this proxy statement and to serving if elected.

#### Recommendation of the Board of Directors
| The Board of Directors unanimously recommends a vote FOR the election of each of the below Class I Director nominees. |
