Advisory Vote to Approve the Compensation of Our Named Executive Officers
ManagementBoard: FORNon-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 requests a non-binding, advisory approval of executive compensation as disclosed in the proxy materials. Management seeks shareholder endorsement to validate its pay-for-performance approach, which emphasizes variable and equity-based compensation tied to financial and strategic goals (e.g., Normalized FFO/Share, Fixed Charge Coverage, G&A controls, relative TSR and Net Debt to Further Adjusted EBITDA). The Compensation Committee positions the program as market-competitive and aligned with stockholder interests, noting robust stockholder engagement and previous strong support (88% in 2025). The proposal is advisory only; the Board will consider the vote when making future decisions. The Board recommends a vote FOR, citing alignment with long-term strategy, retention, risk-mitigating plan design (caps, clawbacks, recoupment policy) and recent changes to increase PSU weighting and add cumulative Normalized FFO/Share to future PSU metrics.
