As required by Section 953(a) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform Act and Consumer Protection Act and Regulation S-K, we are providing the following information about the relationship between executive compensation actually paid to executive officers of the Company and the Company’s financial performance.
| A. | Required Tabular Disclosure of Compensation Actually Paid versus Performance |
The following table discloses information on "compensation actually paid" or "CAP" (as determined pursuant to SEC rules) to our principal executive officer ("PEO") and (on average) to our other Named Executive Officers ("non-PEO NEOs") during the specified years alongside total shareholder return and net income, as well as the Company-selected measure of Company adjusted EBITDA, as defined under the 2025 Cash Incentive Bonus Plan ("2025 Incentive Plan Company Adjusted EBITDA"). The Company selected this measure as the most important in linking compensation actually paid to our Named Executive Officers for 2025 to Company performance by virtue of the fact that the 2025 Cash Incentive Bonus Plan was a key component of our 2025 executive compensation program, and 2025 Incentive Plan Company Adjusted EBITDA was the primary metric for determining achievement under the 2025 Cash Incentive Bonus Plan for all of our Named Executive Officers.

| (3) | Pursuant to SEC rules, the TSR figures assume an initial investment of $100 on December 31, 2020 in our stock and the Dow Jones US Software TSM index. The Dow Jones US Software TSM index was the index that was disclosed in our performance graph in Part II, Item 5 of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, filed on February 27, 2026 pursuant to Item 201(e) of Regulation S-K. |

| (5) | Adjusted EBITDA as defined under the Company’s 2025 cash incentive bonus plan, or 2025 Incentive Plan Company Adjusted EBITDA, equals the Company’s consolidated adjusted EBITDA for the year ended December 31, 2025 as publicly disclosed by the Company, subject to the following adjustments: (i) excluding acquisition-related expenses incurred during the year to the extent such expenses were in excess of the amount originally allocated to such purpose in the Company's 2025 budget, and (ii) excluding the impact on adjusted EBITDA from acquisitions and divestitures consummated during the year. For purposes of clarity, the calculation of consolidated adjusted EBITDA as publicly disclosed by the Company, as well as 2025 Incentive Plan Company Adjusted EBITDA, takes into account any bonus amounts payable by the Company under the 2025 Cash Incentive Bonus Plan. For additional information regarding this measure, see "Compensation Discussion and Analysis" above. In addition, see Appendix A for additional information regarding adjusted EBITDA as publicly disclosed by the Company, including a reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA for the year ended December 31, 2025, to the most comparable GAAP measure, net income. |
| B. | Required Tabular Disclosure of Most Important Measures Linking Compensation Actually Paid During 2025 to Company Performance |
Listed below are the performance measures which in our assessment represent the most important financial performance measures (as defined by SEC rules) we used to link compensation actually paid to our Named Executive Officers for 2025 to the Company's performance.
2025 Most Important Financial Performance Measures

As noted above, “compensation actually paid” for purposes of the tabular disclosure and the following graphs were calculated in accordance with the SEC rules and may not fully represent the actual final amount of compensation earned by or actually paid to our Named Executive Officers during the applicable years.
