Proposals

On the ballot3

  1. 1

    Election of Directors

    ManagementBoard: FOR

    Elect ten nominees named in the proxy statement to the Board of Directors for a one-year term expiring at the 2027 Annual Meeting.

  2. 2

    Non-Binding, Advisory Vote to Approve the Compensation of the Company’s Named Executive Officers (Say-on-Pay

    ManagementBoard: FOR

    Advisory vote to approve executive compensation as disclosed in the proxy statement (CD&A and compensation tables).

    More detail

    This non-binding advisory proposal asks shareholders to approve the Company’s executive compensation program as disclosed in the proxy statement, including the Compensation Discussion & Analysis and compensation tables. Management is seeking shareholder approval to demonstrate support for the pay framework that ties executive rewards to performance via programs such as the Market Value Potential (MVP) Program, Management Incentive Program (MIP), and Underwriting Profit Program (UPP). The Board recommends a vote FOR, citing that compensation is designed to align pay with long-term shareholder value, includes significant equity-based components and stock ownership guidelines, applies clawback and forfeiture provisions, and uses peer-adjustments and multi-year payout structures to discourage excessive short-term risk-taking. The proposal is advisory and non-binding, but the HCCC will consider significant negative votes and may adjust practices in response.

  3. 3

    Ratification of the Selection of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

    ManagementBoard: FOR

    Ratify Deloitte & Touche LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for 2026.
