   Advisory vote on the compensation of our Named Executive Officers (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.

   More detail

   This advisory (non‑binding) proposal asks shareholders to approve the company’s executive compensation as disclosed in the proxy, enabling shareholders to express views on pay design, magnitude and alignment without altering agreements. Management seeks endorsement to validate its pay philosophy, which emphasizes pay‑for‑performance with a heavy weighting toward at‑risk annual and long‑term incentive compensation and specific metrics (e.g., adjusted pre‑tax income, cumulative adjusted EBIT and ROIC) used in annual and performance share awards. The Board and Compensation Committee argue that the program aligns management and stockholders through performance‑based PSUs, time‑based RSUs and retention awards targeted at succession, and that they actively engaged in stockholder outreach and incorporated feedback. The company notes past strong say‑on‑pay support (89% last year) and highlights governance features—clawback policy, anti‑hedging/pledging, share ownership guidelines and capped payouts—to justify continued shareholder backing. The vote is non‑binding, so while it doesn’t change pay contracts, a negative result would require the Board/Committee to engage with investors and reconsider elements of program design. Practically, the proposal is a reputational and feedback mechanism; high support signals alignment and continuity, whereas material opposition could prompt design changes, increased disclosure or additional outreach. Given the company’s recent performance context (license transitions, strategic pivots, and targeted retention grants), management frames pay as calibrated to retain talent through transformation while maintaining downside protections and rigorous performance hurdles. Investors evaluating the merits should weigh the intensity of at‑risk pay, recent retention grants (cliff‑vesting design), historical PSU payouts, and the company’s rationale for adjustments to incentive calculations (e.g., tariff adjustment) against dilution and absolute pay levels.

   Approval of amended 2023 Long‑Term Incentive Plan to increase authorized shares by 2,500,000

   ManagementBoard: FOR

   Approve an amendment to the 2023 Long‑Term Incentive Plan to increase the number of shares authorized for grant under the plan by 2,500,000 shares (to 5,300,000 shares total).

   More detail

   This management proposal asks shareholders to approve a one‑time increase of 2,500,000 shares to the company’s 2023 Long‑Term Incentive Plan (2023 Plan), raising the available pool to 5,300,000 shares. Management frames the request as necessary to preserve the company’s ability to attract, incentivize and retain key executives and non‑employee directors, to grant performance‑based and time‑based equity, and to permit equity awards in lieu of cash incentives; the Compensation Committee explicitly considered overhang, historical burn rates, and stockholder/proxy advisor perspectives in setting the requested size. The incremental shares represent about 5.9% of outstanding shares as of the record date and would raise projected overhang to ~12.6%; the company argues this is a moderate level given its heavy reliance on equity for long‑term alignment and recent repurchases. The Board emphasizes specific business context—targeted retention grants (5‑year cliff vesting) for next‑generation leaders, prior inducement awards, and the need to support succession planning amid the structural loss of certain large licenses—when justifying the increase. Governance features highlighted by management include no evergreen replenishment, minimum one‑year vesting (with limited exceptions), anti‑repricing, clawback policies, share‑holding requirements for NEOs, and limitations on share counting, which are intended to mitigate dilution and align incentives with stockholder interests. Analysts should weigh the tradeoffs: the plan supports strategic retention and performance alignment during a multi‑year transition, but increases in authorized shares will dilute existing holders and raise overhang; the Board’s prior share repurchases and disclosure of burn rates help contextualize the request. The Compensation Committee’s use of discretion in interim adjustments (e.g., tariff adjustments to incentive funding) and the company’s historical PSU outcomes (including maximum payouts) are relevant to assessing future dilution and realized pay outcomes. Overall, the proposal is conventional for a company needing capacity to operate an executive equity program during strategic transition, but shareholders should scrutinize grant pace, future governance (e.g., limits on director/NEO grants), and the Committee’s reporting on how newly-authorized shares will be allocated to balance retention needs with dilution concerns.
