Based on the Board's review of Mr. Lavender's independence and the Board's consideration of whether Mr. Lavender (i) meets the objective tests for independence set forth in the listing rules of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC and (ii) has a material relationship with the Company that would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director, the Board determined that Mr. Lavender is an independent director.

Other than as disclosed herein, Mr. Lavender does not have any direct or indirect material interest in any transaction required to be disclosed pursuant to Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.

Historical director compensation arrangements pursuant to such policy are described under "Director Compensation" in the Company's definitive proxy statement on Schedule 14A filed with the SEC on October 22, 2024, as supplemented by the proxy statement supplement filed with the SEC on November 8, 2024.
