    | 2024 Base Salary Highlights. No annual salary increases were provided to our named executive officers in fiscal year 2024, other than Mr. Hancock. Mr. Hancock received an increase in base salary of 4.3% based on benchmarking. 2024 Long-Term Equity Incentive Plan (“LTIP”) Highlights. Our 2024 LTIP equity grants consisted of a mix of time-based restricted stock units (“RSUs”) (50%) and performance-based RSUs (“PRSUs”) (50%). The 2024 PRSUs are subject to performance goals related to Adjusted EBITDA growth rate (70%) and Return on Invested Capital (“ROIC”) (30%). These performance metrics are directly linked to our long-term growth strategy, which we believe will drive stockholder value. The 2024 PRSUs for the 2024-2026 performance period include Adjusted EBITDA and ROIC growth targets established for each year in the three-year performance period (2024, 2025, and 2026) which are established at the beginning of the three-year performance period. The ultimate vesting and payout at the end of the 2024-2026 performance period will be determined by a simple average of each year’s payout percentages. | 2024 Annual Incentive Plan (“AIP”) Highlights. In fiscal year 2024, our AIP performance goals were designed to highlight the Company’s goal of continued top line growth and cost control, while also emphasizing operational improvements and share growth that would be critical to the achievement of our long-range plan. Specifically, while maintaining the existing metrics of Adjusted EBITDA and the metric improvement to our distribution cost per case, calculated based on the Company’s variable and fixed costs excluding fuel (“Distribution Cost Per Case”), the Compensation and Human Capital Committee added a new metric regarding the Company’s share among independent restaurant customers (“IND Market Share”) and a modifier based on safety performance. The structure of our fiscal year 2024 AIP utilized the following performance metrics - Adjusted EBITDA (70%), Distribution Cost Per Case (15%) and IND Market Share (15%) – and includes a +/- 10% modifier based on the Company’s safety improvement. |

  7. ABOUT US FOODS

    SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE US Foods is proactive in seeking to ensure that its Board possesses, in the aggregate, the strategic, operational and financial skills and experience necessary to fulfill its duties and seek to ensure that the Board is composed of directors who have broad and diverse backgrounds, perspectives and experiences. Our Corporate Governance Guidelines provide that individuals will be considered for nomination to the Board based on the entirety of their skills, experiences and perspectives, including their business and professional expertise, judgment, background, and such other relevant characteristics as the Board deems is necessary or appropriate. For clarity, the Board is committed to including highly qualified women and individuals from underrepresented groups as well as candidates with diverse or non-traditional backgrounds, skills and experiences as part of the director search process. The Board believes that such a Board is best able to effectively oversee management, the strategy and help to position US Foods to deliver long-term value for our stockholders. Additionally, with the assistance of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, the Board regularly reviews board composition. We believe the current composition of the Board reflects a directorship with differentiated professional backgrounds and personal characteristics, who combine a broad spectrum of experience and expertise with a reputation for integrity. Our Board is currently composed of current and former chief executive officers, former chief financial officers, a current chief procurement officer and experienced public company directors. As part of the Board’s commitment to refreshment, four of our nine current directors were appointed in the last three years, including Mr. Bullock, who was appointed in January 2025. Director candidates are required to demonstrate a reputation for integrity, strong values, discipline, high ethical standards, a commitment to full engagement and participation on the Board and its Committees, and relevant experience, along with other skills and characteristics that meet the current needs of the Board, which can change from time to time. In selecting directors to our Board, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and the Board consider whether candidates meet applicable independence standards where appropriate and evaluate any potential conflicts of interest with respect to each candidate. Each nominee has consented to stand for election, and the Board does not anticipate that any nominee will be unavailable to serve. If a director nominee should become unavailable to serve at the time of the Annual Meeting, shares of Common Stock represented by proxy may be voted for the election of a substitute nominee to be designated by the Board. Alternatively, in lieu of designating a substitute, the Board may reduce the size of the Board accordingly.

    DIRECTOR NOMINATING PROCESS The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee recommends candidates to the Board it believes are qualified and suitable to become members of the Board. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee also considers the performance of incumbent directors in determining whether to recommend them for re-election. Recommendations may be received by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee from various sources, including current and former directors, a search firm retained by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, stockholders, Company executives, and candidates themselves. In the case of a vacancy on the Board, including a vacancy created by an increase in the size of the Board, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee may recommend to the Board an individual to fill the vacancy. In January 2025, following a robust recruitment process led by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, the Board appointed Mr. Bullock as a director. Mr. Bullock met with all members of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and the Chair of the Board and was unanimously recommended for appointment. STOCKHOLDER NOMINATIONS Stockholders who wish to identify director candidates for consideration by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee should write to the address provided in the section entitled “Communications with Our Directors” on page 23. Stockholders may also nominate directors for election to the Board as described in the section entitled “Stockholder Proposals for the 2026 Annual Meeting” on page 77. All submissions should comply with the requirements set forth in our Bylaws and applicable law. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee does not have a separate, formal policy on the consideration of director candidates recommended by stockholders. The Board believes that it is more appropriate to provide the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee flexibility in evaluating stockholder recommendations. In the event that a director nominee is recommended by a stockholder, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will give due consideration to the director nominee and will use the same criteria used for evaluating individuals nominated by the Board, in addition to considering the information relating to the director nominee provided by the stockholder.

    should be awarded in the form of RSUs. The Compensation and Human Capital Committee did not approve any additional types of equity awards to our NEOs in connection with the fiscal year 2024 LTIP grant. The change in LTIP mix over time (illustrated below) shows our continued emphasis on ensuring that LTIP awards appropriately incentivize achievement of long-term financial goals and link executive pay to our financial performance: PHILOSOPHY OF OUR EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION PROGRAM Our executive compensation program is designed to attract, motivate, develop, and retain the right talent, in the right places, at the right time. We strive to provide a total compensation package to our executive officers that is competitive with employers who compete with us for talent and is equitable among our workforce, balancing pay-for-performance alignment with retention considerations. The guiding principles described in the section entitled “Executive Summary” above form the basis of our executive compensation philosophy. OBJECTIVES OF OUR EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION PROGRAM Our executive compensation program for fiscal year 2024 was built upon the following framework:

  48. US Foods Holding Corp. 9399 W. Higgins Road, Suite 100 Rosemont, IL 60018 generalcounsel@usfoods.com

    | AIP Award | | | Description | ■Variable, performance-based, annual cash awards based on achievement against pre-set performance goals. | | Objective | ■Links executive pay to our financial performance. ■Drives the achievement of annual business objectives. | | Considerations | ■AIP targets, as a percentage of base salary, are determined based on competitive market data. ■AIP performance goals are constructed with input from management and Meridian, with target performance representing attainable performance and maximum performance representing exemplary performance. | | Fiscal Year 2024 Decisions | ■Performance goals based on Adjusted EBITDA, Distribution Cost Per Case and IND Market Share, with a +/- 10% multiplier based on safety performance. ■The AIP target bonus percentages for the NEOs remained the same as 2023 and are consistent with market benchmarking. ■The maximum potential payout under the AIP was increased to 200% of target. | | LTIP Award | | | Description | ■Variable, performance-based equity compensation in the form of PRSUs, which are earned based on achievement of pre-set performance goals over a three-year performance period. ■Time-based equity compensation in the form of RSUs, the value of which is directly tied to our share price. | | Objective | ■PRSUs incentivize achievement of three-year financial goals and link executive pay to our financial performance. ■RSUs encourage executive retention through multi-year vesting schedule. ■Both PRSUs and RSUs support our long-range plan by providing executive officers with an ownership stake in the Company and aligning executive officers’ interests with those of our stockholders. | | Considerations | ■LTIP target grant date values are determined based on competitive market data. ■PRSU goals are Adjusted EBITDA growth rate and ROIC growth. | | Fiscal Year 2024 Decisions | ■Increased LTIP target values for Mr. Hancock to align his compensation levels to competitive market practices. ■Executive officers’ 2024 LTIP target value allocated equally between grants of time-based RSUs and PRSUs. |

    INDEPENDENT COMPENSATION CONSULTANT Meridian provides independent advice to the Compensation and Human Capital Committee in connection with matters pertaining to executive compensation. The scope of services Meridian provides includes: ■Attending, as requested, select Compensation and Human Capital Committee meetings and assisting with associated preparation work; ■Supporting the Compensation and Human Capital Committee’s decision-making with respect to executive compensation matters; ■Providing advice on our compensation peer group; ■Providing competitive market studies; ■Providing advice on our incentive plan documents; ■Conducting an annual compensation risk assessment; and ■Updating the Compensation and Human Capital Committee on emerging best practices and changes in the regulatory and compensation governance environment. Meridian is engaged directly by the Compensation and Human Capital Committee to provide these services. In fiscal year 2024, Meridian did not provide any services to management that were unrelated to executive compensation. In addition, as described in the section entitled “Director Compensation” on page 28, Meridian assists the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee in the review of our non-employee director compensation program. After evaluating information presented in accordance with the independence considerations set forth in the rules of the NYSE, the Compensation and Human Capital Committee concluded that Meridian was independent. HUMAN RESOURCES DEPARTMENT Our Human Resources Department (“HR”) also works with Meridian to compile benchmarking data (consisting of peer group analysis and supplemental external compensation survey data analysis) and provide recommendations with respect to annual base salary, AIP, and LTIP compensation decisions to the Compensation and Human Capital Committee. As requested by the Compensation and Human Capital Committee, HR works with Meridian to gather and analyze relevant competitive market data and to identify and evaluate various alternatives for features of our executive compensation program. ROLE OF CEO IN DETERMINING EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION Our CEO assists the Compensation and Human Capital Committee by evaluating the performance of our other executive officers and recommending compensation levels based on such performance, experience, and tenure. Our CEO also consults with management regarding recommendations for the Company’s performance goals used in the Company’s AIP and LTIP. In preparing recommendations to the Compensation and Human Capital Committee, our CEO consults benchmarking data and other market surveys from Meridian and HR. Our CEO structures his recommendations to adhere to the principles and objectives described in the section entitled “Philosophy of Our Executive Compensation Program” above. Our CEO is not involved in, or present during, discussions of the Compensation and Human Capital Committee or Board related to his own compensation.

  50. US Foods Holding Corp. 9399 W. Higgins Road, Suite 100 Rosemont, IL 60018 generalcounsel@usfoods.com

    USE OF COMPETITIVE MARKET DATA We believe our executive compensation program should be competitive with the external market for executive talent. For our executive officers, we generally construct external market comparisons by examining peer group proxy statement data and compensation market survey data. We generally target base salary, AIP target, and LTIP opportunity to be within a competitive range of median for similar executive positions in our peer group. Although the elements of our compensation packages are structured with market practice as a guide, the Compensation and Human Capital Committee believes in the importance of retaining flexibility in structuring our compensation programs and adjusting compensation for the evolving business environment. Annually, the Compensation and Human Capital Committee and Meridian review our peer group to evaluate whether it continues to reflect companies that are similar to us in business, size, and complexity and with which we compete for top executive talent. In selecting our peer group, we: ■Included only publicly-traded U.S. companies and other companies that file periodic reports with the SEC in order to ensure access to data. ■Identified potential peers from the following categories: ■Food distributors; ■Non-food distributors in high-volume/low-margin businesses, such as trading companies and distributors, retail distributors, health care distributors, and technology distributors; ■Food/staples retailers; and ■Food products companies. ■Narrowed the list of potential peers based on comparable revenue and EBITDA margin. PEER GROUP The Compensation and Human Capital Committee approved the following peer group of companies for executive pay and program comparison purposes for fiscal year 2024, which was the same peer group that the Company used for fiscal year 2023. ■Arrow Electronics, Inc. ■Avnet, Inc. ■Campbell Soup Company ■CDW Corporation ■Conagra Brands, Inc. ■Genuine Parts Company ■Henry Schein, Inc. ■The Kraft Heinz Company ■Owens & Minor, Inc. ■Performance Food Group ■TD SYNNEX Corporation ■Sysco Corporation ■Tyson Foods, Inc. ■United Natural Foods, Inc. ■WESCO International, Inc. ■W.W. Grainger, Inc. INTERNAL ANALYSIS IN SETTING COMPENSATION ELEMENTS With respect to annual base salary, AIP awards, and LTIP awards, the Compensation and Human Capital Committee also considers the internal equity of the compensation awarded by using comparisons within the Company based on, among other factors, role, title, tenure, and relative responsibilities. CONSIDERATION OF 2024 SAY-ON-PAY VOTE At our 2024 annual meeting, stockholders continued to show strong support for our executive compensation program, with approximately 94% of the votes cast approving, on an advisory basis, the compensation paid to our NEOs. Taking into account this stockholder feedback, the Compensation and Human Capital Committee determined, that, similar to the prior year, our executive compensation program for fiscal year 2024 continued to emphasize performance and retention-based compensation opportunities designed to incentivize our executive officers to execute our long-range plan and increase long-term stockholder value.

    | LTIP awards are made pursuant to the 2019 Plan which is designed to align our NEOs’ interests with our long-term performance and provide the Company with an important means to recruit, retain, and motivate key personnel. LTIP awards are designed to compensate our NEOs for their long-term commitment to the Company, while motivating sustained increases in our financial performance and stockholder value. Moreover, the LTIP awards create long-term incentive opportunities that are competitive with the opportunities offered by the companies with which we compete for talent. In fiscal year 2024, based on stockholder feedback, proxy advisor expectations and market practice, we continued our practice of including PRSUs as a significant portion of the total 2024 LTIP mix, with PRSUs and RSUs each representing 50% of the total LTIP mix. |

  53. US Foods Holding Corp. 9399 W. Higgins Road, Suite 100 Rosemont, IL 60018 generalcounsel@usfoods.com

    The Compensation and Human Capital Committee set each NEO’s individual LTIP grant date target value based on competitive market data. The number of RSUs and PRSUs underlying the LTIP awards is based on the target value of the LTIP awards and the closing price of our Common Stock on the date of grant. RSUs vest ratably on an annual basis over three years, subject to the NEO’s continued employment through the applicable vesting date. PRSUs fully vest on the third anniversary of the grant date if, and only to the extent that, certain performance goals are achieved during the three-year performance period ending on the last day of the Company’s 2026 fiscal year, subject to the executive’s continued employment with the Company. The performance goals set for the 2024 PRSUs are based on a mix of Adjusted EBITDA growth rate and ROIC, with growth targets established for each year in the three-year performance period (2024, 2025, and 2026) at the beginning of the three-year performance period. The ultimate payout and vesting at the end of the three-year performance period will be determined by the simple average of the resulting payout percentages based on each year’s performance against that year’s growth rate. PRSUs are earned at between 0% and 200% of the target award amount based on the achievement of the performance goals at the end of the performance period. COMPONENTS OF 2024 EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION PROGRAM For fiscal year 2024, our NEOs’ compensation primarily consisted of a base salary, an AIP award, and LTIP awards. BASE SALARY No annual salary increases were provided to our NEOs in fiscal year 2024, other than Mr. Hancock. Mr. Hancock received an increase in base salary of 4.3% based on benchmarking. The following table shows the annual base salary rates that were in effect for fiscal year 2025, as approved by the Compensation and Human Capital Committee:

    (1)Mr. Hancock’s base salary was increased from $575,000 to $600,000, effective March 24, 2024. Eligible earnings reflect his blended salary for fiscal year 2024. Business Performance Factors and Potential Payouts In 2024, our AIP performance goals were designed to highlight the Company’s need for continued top line growth and cost control, while also emphasizing operational improvements and share growth that would be critical to the achievement of our long-range plan. Specifically, while maintaining the Adjusted EBITDA and Distribution Cost Per Case metrics, the Compensation and Human Capital Committee added a new metric regarding the company’s share among independent restaurant customers (“IND Market Share”) and a modifier based on safety performance. The threshold, target, and maximum goals and unweighted payout percentages for fiscal year 2024 are set forth in the following table:

  56. US Foods Holding Corp. 9399 W. Higgins Road, Suite 100 Rosemont, IL 60018 generalcounsel@usfoods.com

    | Weight | Performance Metric | Threshold (25% Payout) | Target (100% Payout) | Maximum (200% Payout) | | 70% | Adjusted EBITDA(1) | $1.609B | $1.720B | $1.868B | | 15% | Distribution Cost Per Case(2) | -$0.102 | -$0.026 | $0.081 | | 15% | 2024 IND Market Share(3) | 20 bps | 60 bps | 100 bps |

  58. US Foods Holding Corp. 9399 W. Higgins Road, Suite 100 Rosemont, IL 60018 generalcounsel@usfoods.com

    The Compensation and Human Capital Committee believes the threshold and target levels of performance represented challenging but attainable performance, while the maximum level represented extremely challenging and exemplary performance. Prior to application of the relative weightings and the safety multiplier, the threshold payout percentage for each goal was 25% and the maximum payout percentage was 200%. After application of the safety multiplier, the threshold payout percentage for the annual plan could be 22.5% and the maximum payout percentage could be 220%. Fiscal Year 2024 AIP Actual Performance Based on the Company’s actual performance against the goals described below, the business performance factor for the fiscal year 2024 AIP was determined by the Compensation and Human Capital Committee as follows:

    FISCAL YEAR 2024 LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PLAN AWARDS For 2024, the Compensation and Human Capital Committee, wishing to incentivize financial performance, determined that one-half of the grant date LTIP value should be awarded in the form of PRSUs and one-half of the grant date LTIP value should be awarded in the form of RSUs. The Compensation and Human Capital Committee did not approve any additional types of equity awards to our NEOs in connection with the 2024 annual LTIP grant. The aggregate grant date value and the number of RSUs and PRSUs that were awarded to our NEOs under the 2024 LTIP, and the vesting conditions attributable to each of the awards, are as follows:

    (1)The number of RSUs awarded was calculated by dividing one-half of the grant date value set by the Compensation and Human Capital Committee by the closing price of our Common Stock on the grant date. The RSUs vest in three equal tranches annually on each anniversary of the grant date, generally subject to the NEO’s continued employment through the applicable vesting date. (2)The number of PRSUs awarded was calculated by dividing one-half of the grant date value set by the Compensation and Human Capital Committee by the closing price of our Common Stock on the grant date. The PRSUs vest on the third anniversary of the grant date if, and only to the extent that, certain performance goals are achieved during a three-year performance period ending on the last day of the Company’s 2026 fiscal year, subject to the executive’s continued employment with the Company.

    PERFORMANCE UNDER PRIOR-YEAR PERFORMANCE BASED AWARDS Fiscal Year 2021 Value Creation Awards In 2021, the Company granted PRSUs with a four-year performance period that provide the opportunity to earn threshold, target and maximum payout based on stock price / Total Shareholder Return (“TSR”) hurdles maintained for 30 consecutive trading days (the “2021 Value Creation Awards”). During 2024, the threshold hurdle price of $48.04 was met on March 28, 2024 and the Target hurdle price of $59.12 was met on October 23, 2024. Accordingly, the Target amount of 2021 Value Creation Awards vested for each NEO on March 29, 2025 in the following amounts:

    EXECUTIVE SEVERANCE AGREEMENTS All of our executive officers are employed “at will” and have no defined term of employment with us. Each of our executive officers has an executive severance agreement with the Company which provides additional compensation considerations in the event of (i) termination of the executive’s employment by the Company other than for “cause” or (ii) termination of the executive’s employment by the executive with “good reason.” The executive severance agreements are designed to provide standard protections to both the executive officer and the Company and help us to ensure continuity and aid in recruitment and retention. We believe that the severance benefits are reasonable and appropriate to protect our executive officers against circumstances over which they do not have control. The key terms of our executive severance agreements include: ■Severance Benefits. In the event of a qualifying termination and subject to the execution of a release, severance benefits include: (1) accrued and unpaid base salary through the date of termination, (2) a prorated AIP award for the year of termination, (3) salary continuation for 18 months (24 months for Mr. Flitman), (4) a fixed bonus equal to 1.5x (2x for Mr. Flitman) the executive’s then-current AIP target award, payable in equal annual installments over 18 months (24 months for Mr. Flitman), and (5) if the executive timely elects to continue health coverage pursuant to the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985 (“COBRA”), a lump-sum payment equal to the aggregate premium cost for COBRA benefit continuation during the severance period. A change in control of the Company, by itself, does not trigger any severance benefits. In the event of a qualifying termination within 18 months following a change in control of the Company, and subject to the execution of a release, severance benefits include: (1) accrued and unpaid base salary through the date of termination, (2) a prorated AIP award for the year of termination, (3) a lump sum payment equal to 24 months (36 months for Mr. Flitman) of the executive’s annual base salary, (4) a fixed bonus equal to 2x (3x for Mr. Flitman) the executive’s then-current AIP target award, and (5) if the executive timely elects to continue health coverage pursuant to COBRA, a lump-sum payment equal to the aggregate premium costs for COBRA benefit continuation during the severance period. ■Restrictive Covenants. Executive officers are subject to certain non-disclosure, non-competition, non-solicitation, and non-interference covenants. Additionally, executive officers must maintain the confidentiality of, and refrain from disclosing or using, our confidential information at all times and our trade secrets for any period of time during which the information remains a trade secret under applicable law. ■Clawback of Severance Benefits. An executive’s severance benefits are subject to “clawback” if he or she violates any of the above restrictive covenants or if a financial restatement results from fraud attributable to the executive. In addition to recovery of severance compensation pursuant to the foregoing, the Company may be entitled to recoup certain incentive compensation from the executive under our Clawback Policy, as described below. ■No Excise Tax Reimbursements or Gross-Ups. Executive officers are not reimbursed for excise taxes in connection with a change in control of the Company. Further, no gross-ups on any severance benefits are provided to executive officers.

    RETIREMENT BENEFITS AND OTHER COMPENSATION The only retirement benefits currently provided to our executive officers are (1) those under the US Foods 401(k) Plan (our tax-qualified 401(k) savings plan), which is offered to all eligible associates, and (2) the continued vesting of annual LTIP awards granted beginning in March 2020, provided that the executive has attained age 60 with at least five years of service and the awards have been outstanding for over a year prior to retirement. Consistent with our pay-for-performance philosophy, we limit executive perquisites. Each of our executive officers receives an annual executive allowance, which is intended to defray expenses such as those for executive physicals, financial and legal planning, and professional organization membership. Certain of our executive officers also receive a monthly cellular phone allowance. We generally do not reimburse our executive officers for taxes related to their annual executive allowance or their other compensation or benefits. In addition to these limited perquisites, the Compensation and Human Capital Committee approved for Mr. Flitman to use private, chartered aircraft for personal commute flights between his home and the Company’s Headquarters (or vice versa). The Compensation and Human Capital Committee and Board believe that additional security is appropriate for the position of CEO. The personal use of aircraft is fully taxable to Mr. Flitman and is not grossed up to cover any personal income tax liability. See the notes to the Summary Compensation Table for a description of the limited perquisites provided to our NEOs. Timing of Grants of Equity Awards Our Board and Compensation and Human Capital Committee carefully review any potential material nonpublic information before granting any equity awards, other than awards that we grant on a predetermined schedule. We do not time our equity award grants either to take advantage of a depressed stock price, or an anticipated increase in stock price, and we have limited the amount of discretion that can be exercised in connection with the timing of equity award grants. We also do not time the release of material nonpublic information based on equity award grant dates. Our Company has certain practices related to the timing of the grants of awards. Neither the Board nor the Compensation and Human Capital Committee currently takes material nonpublic information into account when determining the timing of equity award grants in order to take advantage of a depressed stock price or an anticipated increase in stock price. Similarly, it is the Company’s practice to not release material nonpublic information based on equity award grant dates or for the purpose of affecting the value of executive compensation. We generally make awards on pre-determined dates. Annual equity awards to eligible employees, including our executives, are typically made on the last Monday of the first fiscal quarter; annual awards to members of our Board are typically made on the day of the annual stockholders’ meeting; and awards to new hires are typically made to eligible employees on the first Monday of the month following date of hire. We do not grant executive bonus awards in the form of stock. The Company did not grant any stock options, stock appreciation rights or similar option-like instruments in 2024. CLAWBACK POLICY In accordance with SEC and NYSE rules, the Compensation and Human Capital Committee adopted a policy for the recovery of erroneously awarded compensation, effective December 1, 2023. Pursuant to the policy, the Company is required to recover or “clawback” any erroneously awarded incentive-based compensation to our executive officers in the event that the Company is required to prepare an accounting restatement due to material noncompliance with any financial reporting requirement under the securities laws, including any required accounting restatement to correct an error in previously issued financial statements that is material to the 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. This policy applies to all incentive-based compensation received by an executive officer of the Company during the three completed fiscal years immediately preceding the date that the Company is required to prepare a restatement and after the effective date of the policy.

    STOCK OWNERSHIP POLICY FOR EXECUTIVE OFFICERS Each of our executive officers is required to satisfy certain stock ownership guidelines. These guidelines have been designed to closely align our executive officers’ financial interests with those of our stockholders. The guidelines require equity holdings with a value of six times base salary for our CEO and three times base salary for our executive officers. The following forms of Company equity qualify towards the stock ownership guidelines: (i) common stock owned outright, including restricted stock, vested RSUs, and common stock acquired from the exercise of stock options; (ii) common stock held by an executive officer pursuant to the Company’s Employee Stock Purchase Plan; (iii) unvested RSUs and unvested restricted stock; and (iv) the “in the money” value (i.e., the spread between current stock price and exercise price) of vested but unexercised stock options (however, commencing on April 1, 2025, stock options will no longer qualify towards the guidelines). An executive officer’s stock ownership also includes equity owned jointly with, or separately, by the individual’s immediate family member(s) (spouse and/or dependent children) and equity held in trust for the individual’s immediate family member(s). Executive officers have five years from their hire or promotion date to reach the applicable guideline. If the ownership target has not been met within the required time period, and until the ownership target is reached, an executive officer is required to retain 50% of the net shares acquired upon any future vesting of RSUs and restricted stock and/or the exercise of stock options, after deducting shares used to pay applicable taxes and/or the exercise price. The Compensation and Human Capital Committee reviews executive stock ownership levels annually for executive officers and ensures compliance where necessary. In evaluating the stock ownership levels of each executive officer, the Company uses the average closing stock price measured over a 30-day period to value stock holdings. The base salary used in the calculation of the stock ownership guidelines is based on the annualized base salary at the time compliance is evaluated. All of our executive officers were in compliance with (or were on track to be in compliance with) the guidelines at the end of fiscal year 2024. Notably, all of our executive officers would still be in compliance with (or on track to be in compliance with) the guidelines if “in the money” vested, but unexercised stock options were not included in the calculation of such executive officer’s stock ownership as of the end of fiscal year 2024. Effective April 1, 2025 “in the money” vested stock options will be excluded from the calculation.
