   Advisory Vote to Approve Named Executive Officer Compensation (Say-on-Pay

   ManagementBoard: FOR

   Non-binding, advisory vote to approve the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers as disclosed in the proxy statement (Compensation Discussion and Analysis, compensation tables, and narrative).

   More detail

   This non-binding Say-on-Pay advisory vote asks shareholders to approve the Company’s disclosed executive compensation program for its named executive officers, including the Compensation Discussion & Analysis, compensation tables, and narrative disclosures. Management seeks shareholder approval to validate its pay philosophy, which emphasizes a mix of base salary, performance-based cash incentives (the Performance Incentive Compensation tied to Organic Revenue and Non-GAAP Net Income), and equity incentives (RSUs and PSUs) to promote retention and align management interests with long-term shareholder value. The PIC structure ties half of annual incentive payout to Organic Revenue and half to Non-GAAP Net Income, with specific thresholds and interpolation rules that can produce significant upside or zero payout if targets are missed; long-term equity awards include time-vested RSUs and performance-based RSUs tied to stock price and financial metrics. The board presents the advisory vote as a way to obtain shareholder feedback; although the vote is non-binding, the Compensation Committee and Board state they will consider the outcome in future compensation decisions. Company disclosures include detailed benchmarking, peer group analysis, and use of a third-party consultant (FW Cook) to set targets and award levels, which the Board cites to justify the program’s competitiveness and alignment. The proposal’s risk considerations include potential dilution from equity awards and the long-term nature of certain PSU conditions, which could result in misalignment if performance metrics are not well-calibrated; the Company cites clawback and governance safeguards (minimum vesting, anti-repricing, and clawback policy) to mitigate these risks. In recommending a FOR vote, the Board emphasizes that the program is designed to attract and retain talent while incentivizing both short-term operational performance and long-term stock price appreciation, and that the Board will use shareholder feedback from this advisory vote to inform future compensation decisions.

   Amendment and Restatement of the Company’s 2021 Stock Incentive Plan

   ManagementBoard: FOR

   Approve amendment and restatement of the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan to increase the aggregate number of shares authorized for issuance under the plan by 1,510,000 shares (to a total of 1,871,396 shares).

   More detail

   This management proposal asks shareholders to approve an amendment and restatement of the Company’s 2021 Equity Incentive Plan to increase the share reserve by 1,510,000 shares, which the Board says is necessary to continue granting equity awards used for recruitment, retention, and incentive alignment. Management argues the additional shares are required to maintain a competitive compensation program that includes options, SARs, RSUs, and PSUs and to avoid running out of equity to grant to new hires and current employees; they plan to register the additional shares on Form S-8 if approved. The Board provides context on dilution and overhang (stating overhang would rise from ~1.4% to ~2.0% after the increase) and highlights a three-year historical burn rate of 4.2%, asserting the Company has managed equity usage prudently. Governance protections are emphasized in the A&R Plan: no evergreen provision (shareholder approval required for increases), minimum vesting periods, non-liberal change-in-control acceleration, limits on annual awards to non-employee directors, and stock ownership guidelines for directors. The proposal has typical investor trade-offs: further issuance creates potential dilution but supports talent retention and aligns employee pay with shareholder returns; management frames the incremental dilution as modest given current outstanding shares and historical usage. The Board recommends a FOR vote, citing the competitive necessity of the program and the presence of guardrails (clawback, anti-repricing, minimum vesting) to protect shareholder interests. For an institutional analyst, key follow-ups would include modeling the incremental dilution impact under plausible future grant scenarios, evaluating historical realized pay versus performance, and comparing the Company’s burn rate, overhang and plan controls to peer companies to test the Board’s assertion that the request is reasonable and necessary.
