x their annual base salary and the CEO is required to own shares of our common stock equal to 6x his annual base salary. Anywhere common stock, deferred stock units and unvested RSUs count toward achieving the ownership requirement, while options and unearned PSUs are not counted.

Compliance must be achieved within five years of becoming subject to the Guidelines. During that five-year period and until the ownership target is met, those executive officers subject to the Guidelines must retain one-half of the net shares upon exercise of an option (after giving effect to the exercise price and applicable taxes upon exercise) and one-half of the net full-value shares that vest until such executive has met their minimum ownership level. In the event that an executive has not met the ownership requirement at the end of the five-year period, such executive must retain 100% of the net shares until compliance is achieved.

Mr. Schneider satisfied the ownership requirements as of December 31, 2024 while Mr. Wolfs and Ms. Yannaccone are within the five-year compliance period and Ms. Simonelli and Mr. Casey did not satisfy the guidelines due to declines in our stock price in 2024.
