COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS Executive Compensation Governance and Other Information These restrictions aim to maintain a strong commitment to ethical behavior and corporate responsibility, ultimately enhancing the trust and confidence of our stockholders. Clawback Policy The CLD Committee prioritizes holding NEOs and senior management accountable, particularly in cases involving financial restatements due to material accounting irregularities or misconduct. To address these concerns, the Incentive Payment Clawback Policy grants the CLD Committee authority, subject to applicable laws, to recoup or cancel incentive compensation that has already been paid or granted if the CLD Committee determines that one of the following applies: • A financial restatement, excluding accounting policy changes, within the preceding 36 months that would have reduced the amount of incentive compensation had the compensation been calculated based on the restated financial results; or • NEO engages in misconduct that contributes to a financial restatement or causes material financial or reputational harm to Sysco. The types of compensation subject to clawback, reduction, or forfeiture under this policy include all: • Cash-based bonuses and incentive compensation; • Outstanding equity and equity-based awards, whether vested, unvested, or deferred; and • Company contributions to (or for the benefit of) an NEO under the Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (“SERP”), the Executive Deferred Compensation Plan (“
