Item 1C. Cybersecurity.

Item 1C. Cybersecurity Cybersecurity Risk Management and Strategy We have developed and implemented a cybersecurity risk management program intended to protect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of our critical systems and information. Our cybersecurity risk management program includes a cybersecurity incident response plan. We design and assess our program based on the National Institute of Standards and Technology Cybersecurity Framework ( NIST CSF ). This does not imply that we meet any particular technical standards, specifications, or requirements, only that we use the NIST CSF as a guide to help us identify, assess, and manage cybersecurity risks relevant to our business. Our cybersecurity risk management program is integrated into our overall enterprise risk management program, and shares common methodologies, reporting channels and governance processes that apply across the enterprise risk management program to other legal, compliance, strategic, operational, and financial risk areas. Our cybersecurity risk management program includes: risk assessments designed to help identify material cybersecurity risks to our critical systems, information, products, services, and our broader enterprise IT environment a security team principally responsible for managing (1) our cybersecurity risk assessment processes, (2) our security controls, and (3) our response to cybersecurity incidents the use of external service providers, where appropriate, to assess, test or otherwise assist with aspects of our security controls cybersecurity awareness training of our employees, incident response personnel, and senior management a cybersecurity incident response plan that includes procedures for responding to cybersecurity incidents and a third-party risk management process for certain service providers, suppliers, and vendors that have access to our critical systems and information. We have not identified risks from known cybersecurity threats, including as a result of any prior cybersecurity incidents, that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect us, including our operations, business strategy, results of operations, or financial condition. I-41 Cybersecurity Governance Our board of directors (the Board ) considers cybersecurity risk as part of its risk oversight function and has delegated to the Audit Committee ( Committee ) oversight of cybersecurity and other information technology risks. The Committee oversees management s implementation of our cybersecurity risk management program. The Committee receives quarterly reports from management on our cybersecurity risks. In addition, management updates the Committee, as necessary, regarding any material cybersecurity incidents, as well as any incidents with lesser impact potential. The Committee reports to the full Board regarding its activities, including those related to cybersecurity. The full Board also receives briefings from management on our cyber risk management program. Board members receive presentations on relevant cybersecurity topics from our Senior Vice President of Security Operations and internal security staff. Our management team, including our Senior Vice President of Security Operations and the Security Operations team, is responsible for assessing and managing our material risks from cybersecurity threats. The Security Operations team has primary responsibility for our overall cybersecurity risk management program and supervises both our internal cybersecurity personnel and our retained external cybersecurity consultants and contractors. Our Security Operations team includes members with a variety and depth of experience in cybersecurity matters, with more than 80 years of combined cybersecurity experience amongst the team members and the Senior Vice President of Security Operations with more than 30 years of information technology and cybersecurity experience throughout his career. The Senior Vice President of Security Operations holds Certified Information Systems Security Professional and Certified Identity and Access Manager certifications, while the penetration testing team leader holds Offensive Security Certified Professional and Certified Red Team Operator certifications and the additional Security Operations team members hold a Security + certification. Our Security Operations team, in coordination with our legal and compliance teams, supervises efforts to prevent, detect, mitigate, and remediate cybersecurity risks and incidents through various means, which may include briefings from internal security personnel threat intelligence and other information obtained from governmental, public or private sources, including external consultants engaged by us and alerts and reports produced by security tools deployed in the IT environment. Our Security Operations team meets monthly with key executives and management to provide updates regarding the Company s cybersecurity efforts.
