S&P 500 Say-On-Pay Failures Increase pay & governance S&P 500 say-on-pay failures increase The number of S&P 500 companies whose executive pay plans failed to receive majority support from shareholders is up compared to last year. Nine S&P 500 companies have failed say on pay as of May No other surprises despite pandemic. Executive pay 29, which exceeds the total number of seven for all of 2019 decisions for 2019 predated the market gyrations brought and each of the prior years except 2012. In the past, S&P on by the COVID-19 pandemic and say-on-pay vote results 500 companies have enjoyed more say-on-pay support have been generally unaffected. Most indicators of than smaller companies, but this may be changing. shareholder support remain strong so far and consistent with prior years: Reasons for failures. Reasons some investors cited for voting against say on pay at the nine S&P 500 company • Out of 1,729 all-size companies reporting results, 43 (2.5%) failures, aggregated by Proxy Insight, were driven by pay- have received less than 50% support, a higher rate than for-performance disconnects, including: 47 out of about 2,100 (2.2%) as of June 12, 2019 • Modification of performance targets to make them easier • Votes continue to average about 91% in favor of to achieve companies’ executive pay programs • Lack of quantifiable (vs qualitative) performance metrics • Favorable votes of 90% or higher at individual companies are similar to last year (down slightly from 77% in 2019 to • Lack of transparency around performance goals, lack of 76% in 2020 for S&P 500 companies, and up slightly from goal rigor, and/or use of discretion 73% to 75% for all companies) • One-off equity grants, especially when not sufficiently • ISS has recommended shareholders vote against fewer performance-based say-on-pay proposals (10% so far this year compared with • Mega grants covering current and future years 13% as of June 12, 2019 and 14% for all of 2019) • Payment of cash severance on retirement in lieu of forfeited equity S&P 500 say-on-pay failures increase 2 Looking ahead The reasons for the say-on-pay failures indicate areas of concern investors are likely to focus on when they next vote on say on pay, including actions companies take to address the volatile market and global pandemic. Companies with June 30 fiscal year ends will be the first to see the impact, and should engage with shareholders and ensure their proxy disclosure explains the rationale for pay decisions.

I quickly dove into my scout car, dropping it in gear at the same moment the Plymouth came along side.
