Camden Property Trust

1. 1

   Election of Trust Managers

   ManagementBoard: FOR

   Elect 11 Trust Managers to hold office for a one-year term.

2. 2

   Advisory Vote on Executive 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

   The advisory proposal asks shareholders to approve, on a non-binding basis, the overall compensation of the company’s named executive officers as disclosed in the proxy, reflecting pay philosophy, policies and practices. Management seeks support to reaffirm its approach of tying a significant portion of pay to performance via annual bonuses, performance awards, and long-term equity (PSUs). The Compensation Committee emphasizes use of performance metrics (Core FFO per share, Same Property NOI, Net Debt/Adjusted EBITDAre, yields, and TSR comparisons) and governance safeguards (independent committee, consultant, clawback, anti-hedging, share ownership guidelines). An affirmative vote is recommended and will be considered by the Compensation Committee in assessing future actions, but is non-binding. Key context includes a historical ~90% approval level in 2025 and robust pay-for-performance alignment reflected in performance achievements for 2025; material aspects include annual bonus share elections, transition to PSUs for 2026-2028, and protections against excessive risk-taking. Analysts should weigh management’s strong historical shareholder support and explicit mechanisms linking pay to operating metrics against any potential governance concerns about severance, retirement eligibility, or change-in-control provisions that afford substantial payments to certain executives.

3. 3

   Ratification of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

   ManagementBoard: FOR

   Ratify Deloitte & Touche LLP as Camden’s independent registered public accounting firm for 2026.

4. 4

   Approve Amended and Restated 2018 Share Incentive Plan

   ManagementBoard: FOR

   Approve amendment and restatement to increase share reserve by 7,250,000 shares, extend plan term to Feb 25, 2036, add $500,000 annual limit on independent director compensation, and change share recycling rules for options/SARs.

   More detail

   This management proposal requests shareholder approval to amend and restate Camden’s 2018 Share Incentive Plan to increase the share reserve by 7.25 million shares, extend the plan’s term to 2036, introduce a $500,000 annual compensation cap for independent directors (counting equity awards at grant-date fair value), and change share-recycling rules to stop replenishment of the plan pool from shares used to pay option exercise prices or tax withholding for options and SARs. Management justifies the increase arguing limited remaining shares (738,346 as of March 16, 2026) would constrain the company’s ability to attract, retain and motivate employees and directors. The proposal meaningfully increases potential dilution — roughly a 6.9% incremental authorization relative to ~104.7 million shares outstanding as of March 16, 2026 — and shifts plan mechanics by removing a common anti-dilution recycling feature for option/SAR exercises, which could increase gross share-count burn. The director-compensation cap aligns with market norms and reduces future incentive-related dilution tied to independent directors but may constrain flexibility in paying non-employee board members with equity. Analysts should weigh the company’s historical modest burn rate (~0.22% annual average over recent years) and the board’s stated 11-year runway assumption against the immediate dilution increase and the removal of recycling, which can raise long-run dilution and administrative complexity; compare to peer plan vintages and governance norms; and consider that shareholder approval is a majority-of-votes cast standard — making passage likely given management’s recommendation and board composition.

5. 5

   Approve Amended and Restated 2018 Employee Share Purchase Plan

   ManagementBoard: FOR

   Approve amendment and restatement to extend the ESPP term through Feb 25, 2036 (no increase in share reserve).

   More detail

   Management asks shareholders to extend the term of the employee share purchase plan through 2036 without increasing the 500,000-share reserve. This is a routine request to maintain a broad-based employee ownership program; management argues it advances retention and alignment objectives. The material governance/financial considerations are limited: no new dilution is requested, but extending the term preserves long-term optionality for employee participation; shareholders generally view ESPP extensions favorably when they do not expand authorized shares. The Board recommends for approval.
