This Notice of Availability also includes instructions on how to request a paper or email copy of the proxy materials, including the Notice of Annual Meeting, Proxy Statement and 2024 Annual Report, and proxy card or voting instruction form.

In addition, by following the e-consent instructions in the proxy card or voting instruction form, stockholders may choose to go paperless in future solicitations and request proxy materials electronically by email on an ongoing basis.
