Other Corporate Governance Policies,
Practices, and Documents
Corporate Governance Principles
The Board adopted the Corporate Governance Principles to promote the effective functioning of the Board and its Committees, to promote the interests of stockholders, and to ensure a common set of expectations as to how the Board and its Committees, individual directors, and management should perform their functions. The Board reviews and approves the Corporate Governance Principles annually.
Code of Business Conduct and Ethics
The Company has adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics (the “Code of Business Conduct”) that applies to the Company’s directors, executive officers, and associates, including the Company’s principal executive officer, principal financial officer, and chief accounting officer. All Broadridge associates, including executive officers and directors, are required, on an annual basis, to acknowledge receipt of and compliance with the Code of Business Conduct. The Company will post on its website any amendment to the Code of Business Conduct and any waiver of the Code of Business Conduct granted to any of its directors or executive officers to the extent required by applicable NYSE and SEC rules.

Certain Relationships and Related Transactions
The Company maintains a written Related Party Transactions Policy. Under this policy, any transaction between the Company and a “related person” in which such related person has a direct or indirect material interest must be submitted to our Audit and Risk Committee for review, approval, or ratification.
A “related person” means a director, executive officer, nominee for election as a director of the Company or beneficial holder of more than five percent of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock, or any immediate family member of the foregoing, as well as any entity at which any such person is employed, is a partner or principal (or holds a similar position) or is a beneficial owner of 10% or greater of a direct or indirect equity interest. Our directors and executive officers must promptly inform our Chief Legal Officer of any plan to engage in a potential related party transaction.
This policy requires our Audit and Risk Committee to be provided with full information concerning the proposed transaction, including the risks and benefits to the Company and the related person, any alternative means by which to obtain like products or services, and the terms of a similar transaction with an unaffiliated third party. In considering whether to approve any such transaction, the Audit and Risk Committee will consider all relevant facts and circumstances, including the nature of the interest of the related person in the transaction and the terms of the transaction. Specific types of transactions are pre-approved under the policy, such as, for example, transactions in which the related person’s interest derives solely from his or her service as a director of another entity that is a party to the transaction.
In fiscal year 2026, the Company did not engage in any related party transaction in which the amount involved exceeded $120,000. In addition, the Code of Business Conduct prohibits Company personnel, including members of the Board, from exploiting their positions or relationships with Broadridge for personal gain. The Code of Business Conduct provides that there shall be no waiver of any part of the Code of Business Conduct, except by a vote of the Board or a designated committee, which will ascertain whether a waiver is appropriate and ensure that the waiver is accompanied by appropriate controls designed to protect Broadridge. The Company will post on its website any amendment to the Code of Business Conduct and any waiver of the Code of Business Conduct granted to any of its directors or executive officers to the extent required by applicable NYSE and SEC rules.
