The meeting is open to all registered stockholders or beneficial owners of the company’s common stock at the close of business on Nov. 29, 2024. A live webcast of the meeting, virtualshareholdermeeting.com/HRL2025, will begin at 6 p.m. CST on Tuesday, Jan. 28, with registration on the meeting site beginning at 5:45 p.m.

Stockholders will need the 16-digit control number, found on either the Notice of Internet Availability, the proxy card, or on the instructions that accompany the proxy materials, to participate in the annual meeting and vote shares electronically.

Following the business of the stockholder meeting, there will be a question-and-answer session. Stockholders may submit a question in advance of the meeting at proxyvote.com after logging in with the control number. Questions may be submitted during the meeting through virtualshareholdermeeting.com/HRL2025.
