 information regarding the perquisites given to our NEOs. Clawback Provisions We have adopted “clawback” policies to provide for recovery of incentive compensation, if any, in excess of what would have been paid to our executive officers or former executive officers in the event that the Company is required to restate financial results and also to provide for clawback of cash and equity incentive compensation in the event of misconduct by an executive officer or former executive officer. On October 26, 2022, the SEC adopted final rules to implement the requirements of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 (the “Dodd-Frank Act”), which direct the national securities exchanges (including the NYSE) to establish listing standards requiring each issuer to develop and implement a policy providing for the recovery, in the event of an accounting restatement, of incentive-based compensation received by current or former executive officers where the compensation was based on erroneously reported financial information. Following NYSE’s adoption of updated listing standards as required by the final rules, our Board adopted a compensation clawback policy, effective October 2, 2023, that complies with these SEC rules and NYSE listing standards.

Robust Stock Ownership Guidelines and Holding Periods for Executive Officers Our Board has adopted robust stock ownership guidelines for certain executive officers. For the NEOs, the ownership guidelines are as follows:

| NEO     |     | Ownership      
 Requirement    
 as a Multiple  
 of Base Salary |
| Engel   |     | 5x             |
| Schulz  |     | 3x             |
| Geary   |     | 2x             |
| Squires |     | 2x             |
| Khurana |     | 2x             |

These officers are expected to acquire their initial ownership positions within five years of their appointment and to hold those ownership positions during their service as executives of the Company. Until the stock ownership guidelines are met, an officer must hold a minimum of 50% of the pre-taxvalue realized at the exercise or vesting of equity awards. For purposes of these guidelines, ownership includes: stock owned directly; indirect beneficial ownership of stock; vested Options and SARs to the extent they are in the money; and unvested RSUs. It does not include Performance Shares unless and until they vest and are converted to stock. The Board reviews compliance with these guidelines annually, and all of our
