- 2
Advisory Vote on Named Executive Officer Compensation
ManagementBoard: FORNon-binding advisory vote to approve the compensation of the named executive officers as described in the proxy statement.
More detail
This management proposal requests shareholder approval, on a non-binding advisory basis, of the Company’s named executive officer (NEO) compensation (a ‘‘say-on-pay’’ vote). Management seeks endorsement of its pay programs which it describes as pay-for-performance, with a mix of short-term cash bonuses tied to Core FFO/share, Same Property NOI and portfolio leased rate, and long-term equity awards heavily weighted to performance-based LTIP Units tied to relative TSR with absolute TSR modifiers and post-vesting holding requirements. The Board and Compensation Committee present this vote following strong prior shareholder support (96.3% in 2025) and emphasize governance features such as clawback policy, share ownership requirements, anti-hedging, and use of an independent compensation consultant. The recommendation to vote FOR is justified by the Board as aligning executive incentives with long-term shareholder value, retention and market-competitive compensation practices; the Board will consider the advisory vote outcome in future compensation decisions.
