Our Board of Directors has established the close of business on April 14, 2025 as the record date for the Annual Meeting. This means that you are entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting (by remote communication or by proxy) if our stock records show that you owned our common stock at that time.

Whether you plan to attend the Annual Meeting or not, it is important that you cast your vote either by remote communication at the virtual meeting or by proxy in advance of the meeting. You may vote over the Internet, telephone or by mail. You are urged to vote in accordance with the instructions set forth in this proxy statement. We encourage you to vote by proxy so that your shares will be represented and voted at the Annual Meeting, whether or not you can attend the virtual meeting. You will need the 16-digit control number included with the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials (the “Notice”), on your proxy card, or the instructions that accompany your proxy materials to attend the Annual Meeting virtually via the Internet.
