   Approval, on an Advisory Basis, of Named Executive Officer Compensation

   ManagementBoard: FOR

   Non-binding advisory vote to approve the compensation of the Named Executive Officers as disclosed in the proxy statement (Say on Pay).

   More detail

   This proposal asks shareholders to cast an advisory (non-binding) vote to approve the compensation of Avient’s Named Executive Officers as disclosed in the proxy statement, including the Compensation Discussion and Analysis and compensation tables. Management seeks shareholder approval to validate its pay-for-performance philosophy, executive pay design (mix of salary, annual incentives, long-term incentives, and stock ownership and clawback policies), and specific 2025 decisions (annual incentive metrics, long-term incentive design, and targeted award levels). The Board recommends a vote FOR, stating that executive pay is aligned with corporate performance, strategic objectives, and shareholder interests, and highlighting pay-for-performance links such as adjusted EPS, revenue growth, adjusted operating cash flow, sustainability metrics, and relative TSR inclusion in long-term awards. The Compensation Committee will review voting results and consider changes if significant negative votes occur; however, the vote is non-binding and will not automatically change compensation arrangements.
