LMR38010-Q1: EP connection in IBB application

Part Number: LMR38010-Q1
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: LMR38010

I am using the LMR38010 as an inverting buck-boost regulator to convert 24V to -7V.  Should the EP pad be connected to the GND pin which becomes the negative output of the converter as shown below or should the EP pad be left floating?

Thanks
