Additional Information About OurProgram

Other arrangements and considerations important to a shareholder’s understanding of our overall executive compensation program are described below.

Share Ownership and Retention Guidelines

We believe named executive officers should have a significant equity interest in the Company. To promote equity ownership and further align the interests of our named executive officers with those of our shareholders, we adopted share ownership and retention guidelines for our named executive officers. The guidelines are expected to be achieved within five years. Until the ownership requirements are met, a named executive officer must retain 60% of any applicable shares received (on a net after tax basis) under our equity compensation program. At the end of fiscal 2025, all named executive officers were in compliance with our share ownership guidelines.

Anti-Hedging and Anti-Pledging Policy

We prohibit our named executive officers and directors from engaging in transactions involving derivative instruments with respect to Company securities, and other securities immediately convertible or exchangeable into Company securities, and from pledging shares of Company common stock.

Clawback Policy

We maintain and operate a Compensation Clawback Policy (the “Clawback Policy”), which complies with the rules and listing standards promulgated and adopted by the SEC and Nasdaq. The Clawback Policy provides for the prompt recovery (or clawback) of certain excess incentive-based compensation received during an applicable three-year recovery period by current or former executive officers in the event we are required to prepare an accounting restatement due to material noncompliance with any financial reporting requirement under the securities laws. Triggering events include accounting restatements to correct an error in previously issued financial statements that is material to such previously issued financial statements, or that would result in a material misstatement if the error were corrected in the current period or left uncorrected in the current period. Excess incentive-based compensation for these purposes generally means the amount of incentive-based compensation received (on or after October 2, 2023) by such executive officer that exceeds the amount of incentive-based compensation that would have been received by such executive officer had it been determined based on the restated amounts, without regard to any taxes paid. Incentive-based compensation potentially subject to recovery under the Clawback Policy is in general limited to any compensation granted, earned or vested based wholly or in part on the attainment of one or more financial reporting measures.

In general, we may utilize a broad range of recoupment methods under the Clawback Policy. The Clawback Policy does not condition clawback on the fault of the executive officer, but we are not required to clawback amounts in limited circumstances where the Compensation Committee has made a determination that recovery would be impracticable and: (1) we have already attempted to recover such amounts but the direct expenses paid to a third-party in an effort to

enforce the Clawback Policy would exceed the amount to be recovered, (2) the recovery of amounts would violate applicable home country law, or (3) the recovery would cause the non-compliance of a tax-qualified retirement plan under the Code and applicable regulations. Operation of the Clawback Policy is subject to a brief phase-in process during the first few years after its effectiveness. We may not indemnify any such executive officer against the loss of such recovered compensation.

The Board also maintains and operates a supplemental clawback policy with broad discretion, allowing the Board to seek recoupment of incentive-based compensation (cash or equity, including time-based equity) from its Section 16 officers in the event of misconduct, including (i) willfully failing to perform his or her duties, (ii) willfully engaging in fraud or breach of his or her fiduciary duties, (iii) willfully violating the Company’s Code of Conduct or engaging in gross misconduct which is materially injurious to the Company, and (iv) committing a felony or offense involving moral turpitude.

Regulatory Considerations

Effective for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2017, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act changed certain aspects of executive compensation, including elimination of a Company’s ability to deduct “performance-based” compensation in excess of $1 million to named executive officers under Section 162(m) of the Code. We will continue to consider tax implications in making compensation decisions and, when believed to be in the best long-term interests of our shareholders, we may provide compensation that is not fully deductible.

In making decisions about executive compensation, we also consider the impact of other regulatory provisions, including Section 409A of the Code regarding non-qualified deferred compensation and Section 280G of the Code regarding compensation pursuant to a change in control. We also consider how various elements of compensation will impact our financial results. For example, ASC Topic 718, the accounting standard that determines the cost to be recognized for equity awards, is considered when awarding stock options, restricted stock awards, and restricted stock unit awards.
