Proposals

On the ballot3

  1. 1

    ManagementBoard: FOR

    Elect 12 director nominees to serve until the 2027 Annual Meeting or until their successors are elected.

  2. 2

    Advisory (Non-Binding) Vote to Approve Executive Compensation (Say-on-Pay

    ManagementBoard: FOR

    A non-binding, advisory vote to approve the compensation of the company's named executive officers as disclosed in the proxy statement.

    More detail

    This management proposal asks shareholders to approve, on a non-binding advisory basis, the compensation disclosed for the company’s named executive officers for 2025. Management is seeking shareholder approval to validate its compensation philosophy, which mixes base salary, short-term incentive cash bonuses tied to company performance metrics, and long-term equity awards (RSUs and PRSUs) to align executives' interests with long-term shareholder value. Context includes strong prior support (approx. 99% approval at the 2025 meeting) and that the Compensation Committee uses peer benchmarking, performance metrics and regulatory considerations to set pay. The board recommends a vote FOR, stating that the CD&A and tabular disclosures adequately explain compensation decisions. The rationale emphasizes alignment of pay with performance, retention through equity vesting schedules and regulatory-compliant governance such as clawback and stock ownership policies. Risks considered by the Compensation Committee are described and the committee concluded incentive plans do not create material adverse risk. A FOR vote is recommended to endorse the company's compensation practices and support management continuity.

  3. 3

    Ratification of Appointment of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

    ManagementBoard: FOR

    Ratify RSM US LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2026.
