The Plan is administered by the LNC Benefits Committee (the “Plan Administrator”) and is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”). The Plan may be amended periodically in order to comply with changes in applicable laws and to make changes in Plan administration. </span></div><div><span><br/></span></div><div><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Garamond',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:700;line-height:112%">Eligibility</span></div><div><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Garamond',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:112%">The Plan is a contributory, defined contribution plan that covers substantially all employees of the Employer and certain of its subsidiaries who meet the conditions of eligibility to participate as defined by the Plan document. </span></div><div><span><br/></span></div><div><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Garamond',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:700;line-height:112%">Contributions</span></div><div><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Garamond',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:112%">Participants may contribute up to 75% of their pre-tax annual eligible compensation, as defined by the Plan, subject to annual individual deferral limitations as determined by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”). All newly hired or rehired employees are automatically enrolled in the Plan with pre-tax contributions being made at the rate of 6% of eligible earnings. A participant may elect to not participate in the Plan or change the pre-tax contribution rate from 6%. A participant may also elect to make Roth 401(k) contributions to the Plan. Roth 401(k) contributions are includable in the participant’s gross income at the time of deferral and must be irrevocably designated as Roth 401(k) contributions. Participants who have attained age 50 before the end of the Plan year are eligible to make catch-up contributions, as determined by the IRS and ERISA. Participants may also contribute amounts representing distributions from other qualified defined benefit or defined contribution plans (“rollover”).</span></div><div><span><br/></span></div><div><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Garamond',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:112%">Employer contributions are made to the Plan. The basic Employer match is $1.00 for each $1.00 that a participant contributes each pay period, up to 6% of eligible earnings. The Employer “Core” contribution is 4% of eligible earnings and is contributed to each eligible employee regardless of whether the employee elects to defer earnings into the Plan. The Employer Core contribution is applied to eligible earnings on an annual basis. Participants receive the Employer Core contribution the following year based on prior year eligible earnings. In order to be eligible for the Employer Core contribution, participants must be actively employed as of the last day of the last pay period of the Plan year. In the event of termination due to death, disability, job elimination, retirement or transfer to full-time agent status, the Employer Core contribution will be based on eligible earnings up to the termination date.</span></div><div><span><br/></span></div><div><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Garamond',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:700;line-height:112%">Investment Options</span></div><div><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Garamond',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:112%">Participants direct the investment of their contributions into various investment options offered by the Plan. Employer contributions are invested in the same manner as participant elective contributions. The Plan currently offers various mutual funds, collective investment trusts, a guaranteed investment contract issued by The Lincoln National Life Insurance Company (“LNL”), and LNC common stock as investment options for participants. In addition, participants have the option of utilizing a self-directed brokerage account (“brokerage account”), through which participants are able to invest in a variety of securities including mutual funds, common stock or cash and invested cash.</span></div><div><span><br/></span></div><div><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Garamond',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:700;line-height:112%">Participant Accounts</span></div><div><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Garamond',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:112%">Separate accounts are maintained for each participant.

Benefit responsiveness is defined as the extent to which a contract’s terms and the Plan permit or require participant-initiated withdrawals at contract value. Contract value is the relevant measure for fully benefit-responsive investment contracts because this is the amount received by participants if they were to initiate permitted transactions under the terms of the Plan. Contract value represents participant contributions, plus earnings at guaranteed crediting rates, less participant withdrawals. </span></div><div><span><br/></span></div><div><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Garamond',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:112%">The fully benefit-responsive investments have certain restrictions. For example, partial Plan termination or meaningful divestitures are events that could result in such restrictions that may affect the ability of the Plan to collect contract value. The Plan Administrator believes that the occurrence of events that would cause the Plan to enter into transactions at less than contract value is not probable. There are also no events or circumstances that are probable that would allow LNL to terminate the group fixed annuity contract with the Plan and settle at an amount different from contract value.</span></div><div><span><br/></span></div><div><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Garamond',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:112%">The LNL investment contract is a group fixed annuity contract, backed by the creditworthiness of LNL, which has no maturity date. Deposits made to the investment contract are deposited in LNL’s general account. LNL is contractually obligated to repay the principal and a specified crediting interest rate that is guaranteed to the Plan. There are no reserves against contract value for credit risk of LNL or otherwise. Participants may ordinarily direct permitted withdrawals or transfers of all or a portion of their account at contract value within reasonable time frames. Restrictions apply to the aggregate movement of funds to other investment options.</span></div> Income Tax Status<div><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Garamond',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:112%">The Plan received a determination letter from the IRS dated August 21, 2017, stating that the Plan is qualified under section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”) and, therefore, the related trust is exempt from taxation. Subsequent to this determination by the IRS, the Plan has been amended and restated. However, the Plan Administrator and the Plan’s tax counsel believe the Plan, as amended and restated, is currently designed and being operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the Code.</span></div><div><span><br/></span></div><div style="text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Garamond',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:112%">The Plan Administrator has conclu</span><span style="background-color:#ffffff;color:#000000;font-family:'Garamond',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:112%">ded that as of December 31, 2025, there were no uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken. </span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Garamond',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:112%">The Plan recognized no interest or penalties related to uncertain tax positions. The Plan is subject to routine audits by taxing jurisdictions; however, there are currently no audits for any tax periods in progress. The Plan Administrator believes it is no longer subject to income tax examinations for years prior to the applicable statute of limitations.</span></div> Related Party and Party-in-Interest Transactions<div><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Garamond',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:107%">The Plan’s investments represent funds invested in, or maintained by, Lincoln Financial Group Trust Company, Inc. (“LFGTC”), Lincoln Retirement Services Company, LLC (“LRSC”), Matrix Trust Company and The Charles Schwab Corporation (“Charles Schwab”). LFGTC is the Plan’s Trustee; LRSC, an affiliate of LNC, is the recordkeeper for the Plan; Matrix Trust Company is the custodian for shares of LNC common stock and Charles Schwab is the custodian of the brokerage account assets. Therefore, these investments represent exempt party-in-interest transactions.
