With respect to the stock grant issued on March 31, 2026, non-employee directors may defer this grant



into restricted stock units with immediate vesting. If a deferral is elected by a non-employee director, settlement of the restricted stock units or stock equivalent rights is deferred until at least six months and no more than ten years and six months after the director’s termination of service on the Board of Directors, at which time the restricted stock units will be settled in one or more installments by delivery of shares of common stock, and the stock equivalent rights will be settled in shares. In both cases, the equity administrator will process whole and fractional shares.
