Advisory (non-binding) vote to approve executive compensation disclosures (Say-on-Pay).
This is a management-sponsored, non-binding advisory Say-on-Pay proposal asking stockholders to approve the compensation of named executive officers as disclosed in the proxy. Management seeks endorsement to validate its pay-for-performance program, which emphasizes a mix of base salary, annual incentives tied to Adjusted Corporate EBITDA, DOE per Transaction Day, total utilization, NPS, and board discretion, and long-term incentives (RSUs and PSUs) with performance and retention features. The Compensation Committee explains that pay decisions reflected sign-on awards for certain executives tied to VWAP thresholds and that 2025 EICP funded at 133.5% produced cash payouts while PSUs tied to Adjusted Corporate EBITDA paid out 0% for 2025. Vote is advisory; Board will consider results in future compensation decisions.
