Pre-Approval Policy

Our Board of Directors adopted a Preapproval Policy for the Audit Committee’s approval of all audit and non-audit services that may be performed by our independent registered public accounting firm. Under the policy, the Audit Committee must, unless specifically approved in the policy, give prior approval for any amount or type of service within four categories—audit, audit-related, tax services, or, to the extent permitted by law, other services—that the independent auditor provides. The Audit Committee may grant pre-approval for specific independent auditor services within these four categories, and the term for such preapproval is 12 months unless otherwise specified by the Audit Committee. Circumstances may arise when it may become necessary to engage the independent auditor for additional services not contemplated in the original pre-approval and, in those instances, such services will require separate pre-approval by the Audit Committee if it is to be provided by the independent auditor. With respect to each such proposed pre-approved service, the independent registered public accounting firm must provide detailed back-up documentation regarding the specific services to be provided and whether the services are consistent with the SEC’s and the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board’s (the “PCAOB”) rules on auditor independence. The

Audit Committee may delegate to one or more of its members, including the chairperson, authority to approve a request for pre-approval, provided the member reports any approval so given to the Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting. For the year ended December 27, 2025, the Audit Committee or its chairperson pre-approved all of the services provided by PwC.
