   Advisory 'Say on Pay' vote regarding ICF’s overall pay-for-performance NEO compensation program

   ManagementBoard: FOR

   Non-binding, advisory vote to approve ICF’s overall pay-for-performance named executive officer compensation program as described in the CD&A and related compensation tables.

   More detail

   This advisory proposal asks shareholders to endorse ICF’s overall named executive officer compensation program as disclosed in the Compensation Discussion & Analysis and related tables. Management is seeking shareholder approval to validate its design choices—heavy weighting of long-term equity (50% PSAs and 50% RSUs in annual grants), multi-year performance metrics (PSA two‑year initial and three‑year secondary performance periods tied to adjusted EPS and relative TSR), minimum one‑year vesting, and clawback/recoupment provisions—to reinforce alignment between executive pay and long‑term shareholder value. The Board emphasizes that the vote is non‑binding but will be taken seriously by the Human Capital Committee when setting future compensation; it notes strong prior support (approximately 98% in 2025) as pedigree for continuing the approach. Contextual factors informing management’s recommendation include the Company’s difficult 2025 operating environment—substantial federal contract terminations, a significant revenue decline from federal clients, temporary 20% base‑salary reductions during the government shutdown, and a Committee exercise of discretion to reduce earned short‑term incentive payouts by 5%—all of which the Committee considered when calibrating payouts and program design. The proposal therefore functions as a governance signal asking whether shareholders accept the Committee’s discretion and the multi‑year performance framework (including performance share design and rTSR modifier). The Board’s recommendation for a FOR vote is justified by the Committee’s view that the program balances retention and pay‑for‑performance, includes robust clawbacks and governance features (no tax gross‑ups, no repricing without stockholder approval, minimum vesting, double‑trigger change‑of‑control protections), and aligns pay to both near‑term and long‑term metrics. Investors should weigh the non‑binding nature of the vote, the Company’s recent compensation actions during a stress year, and the program’s structural alignment features when evaluating the merits of endorsing management’s approach.

   Approval of the ICF International, Inc. 2026 Omnibus Incentive Plan

   ManagementBoard: FOR

   Stockholder vote to approve the 2026 Omnibus Incentive Plan, authorizing 1,321,000 shares for issuance, replacing the 2018 Plan (clean start), and incorporating governance features (no repricing without approval, minimum one‑year vesting, double‑trigger change‑of‑control, clawback, director compensation cap).

   More detail

   This management proposal asks shareholders to approve a new equity incentive vehicle that would replace the existing 2018 Plan with a ‘clean start’ 2026 Omnibus Incentive Plan authorizing 1,321,000 shares. Management seeks approval to satisfy Nasdaq listing and Internal Revenue Code requirements for equity compensation and ISOs and to provide an appropriately sized share reserve to support long‑term incentive grants for roughly three years under current grant practices. The proposed Plan embeds numerous governance protections—no repricing without shareholder approval, a fixed share reserve with no evergreen provision, minimum one‑year vesting with a narrow 5% carve‑out, double‑trigger acceleration for employees upon a change of control, explicit Rule 10D‑1 clawback adoption, prohibition on tax gross‑ups and company loans to fund exercises, and a $750,000 annual cap on director compensation—which management highlights to mitigate shareholder concerns and align with proxy advisor policies. The filing discloses dilution metrics (requested shares ≈7.29% of outstanding shares; total potential overhang ≈9.93%) and historical burn‑rate data; these details are material to investor assessment because the fixed share pool and recent three‑year average burn rate (noted in the filing) could influence long‑term dilution and shareholder value transfer. Notably, the Plan’s ‘clean start’ approach also forfeits remaining availability under the 2018 Plan, a design choice frequently favored by proxy advisors to improve ISS/Glass Lewis modeling but that can raise near‑term grant pressure. The Board unanimously recommends FOR, arguing the reserve is reasonably sized, the Plan modernizes governance provisions (including compliance with Rule 10D‑1), and supports retention and alignment of executives and directors. Sophisticated investors should weigh the Plan’s strong governance features against the share request and projected usage, consider the clean‑start tradeoffs, and evaluate how the Plan interacts with the Company’s performance-based award structure and 2025 compensation actions.
