Retirement Benefits

We sponsor the Noble Services Company LLC 401(k) and Profit Sharing Plan, a qualified defined contribution plan, that allows eligible employees, including the NEOs, to save for retirement through a tax-advantaged combination of employee and Company contributions. The Company matches 100% of the first 6% of eligible earnings that the participant defers, subject to statutory annual limits. Although it may elect to do so, the Company did not make an annual discretionary profit sharing contribution for 2024.

Other Benefits and Perquisites

The Company provides healthcare, life and disability insurance and other employee benefit programs to its employees, including the NEOs, which the Company believes assist in maintaining a competitive position in terms of attracting and retaining officers and other employees. These employee benefit plans are provided on a non-discriminatory basis to all employees.

The Company provides minimal perquisites and other personal benefits to the NEOs. The Company and the Compensation Committee believe these are reasonable and consistent with its overall compensation program. There are no reportable values of perquisites for the NEOs for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Share Ownership Policy and Holding Requirements

We maintain a share ownership policy applicable to our officers and directors, including our NEOs. The policy requires covered persons to hold shares, TVRSUs, or a combination thereof with an aggregate value in excess of specified multiples of their annual base salary or retainer as set forth below. The Share Ownership Policy excludes shares that a covered person has the right to acquire through the exercise of options (whether or not vested) and any unvested or unearned performance shares when calculating share ownership. Unless a covered person is making reasonable progress to satisfy the policy holding requirements, they may not sell or dispose of shares for cash. The Compensation Committee retains the ability to make amendments to or grant waivers of the Share Ownership Policy and newly appointed officers and directors have five years from appointment to satisfy their holding requirements. All officers and directors are currently in compliance with our share ownership policy.
