In 2026, the Overall Share Limit was increased by 633,206 shares in accordance with such provision. Such shares may be shares of original issuance or treasury shares or a combination of the two. 2026 Long-Term Incentive Program Awards On February 11, 2026, the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors approved the Company’s 2026 long-term incentive program (the “2026 LTIP”), consisting of restricted stock unit awards (“RSUs”) and non-qualified stock options (“Stock Options”), granted under the 2024 Plan.
