ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

No member of our Compensation Committee is or has been an officer or employee of Goldman Sachs other than David Viniar, who is an ex officio member of the Compensation Committee in his capacity as Lead Director. No member of our Compensation Committee or our Board is, or was in 2024, an executive officer of another entity at which one of our executive officers serves, or served in 2024, on either the board of directors or the compensation committee. For information about related person transactions involving members of our Compensation Committee, see Certain Relationships and Related Transactions.

Delinquent Section 16(a) Reports

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our directors and executive officers and persons who own more than 10% of a registered class of our equity securities to file reports of ownership of, and transactions in, our equity securities with the SEC. Our directors and executive officers are also required to furnish us with copies of all such Section 16(a) reports if not filed by the firm on their behalf. The reports are published on our website atwww.gs.com/shareholders.

Based on a review of the copies of these reports, and on written representations from our reporting persons, we believe that, except as described below, all such reports that were required to be filed under Section 16(a) during 2024 were timely filed. Form 4 filings for Mr. Flaherty were made after the applicable filing deadlines for an aggregate acquisition of 82.355 shares acquired quarterly between March 30, 2022 and September 27, 2024 pursuant to a discontinued dividend reinvestment program at an unaffiliated broker.
