 our entire enterprise to achieve top strategic priorities identified for the year.

In 2023, the Committee also reduced its discretion with respect to individual payouts to +/-25 percent in response to prior feedback received by proxy advisory firms and adjusted performance requirements for funding at threshold and maximum in an effort to further reduce volatility and balance the impact of unpredictable market conditions.

### EIP Overview
2024 EIP funding (as described below) is based on the following elements of Company performance :

| Financial Performance Metric (70%)  |     |                        |
|                                     |     | Plan Operating EBITDA  |
| Strategic Performance Metrics (30%) |     |                        |
|                                     |     | Operational Excellence |
|                                     |     | Talent                 |

Payouts for the financial performance metric ranges from 25% to 200% for achievement of 75% to 125% of the Plan Operating EBITDA target and payouts for the strategic performance metrics ranges from 0% to 200%. The Committee has discretion to increase or decrease any executive's payout by up to +/-25% based on individual performance.

### Financial Performance Metric
In 2024, the Committee retained Plan Operating EBITDA as the financial performance metric under the EIP, which accounted for 70% of the overall target, due to its direct link to the success of Anywhere’s business strategy—as this metric is materially aligned and consistent with Operating EBITDA, our key metric for evaluating overall performance of our operating business. For 2024, the Committee, using a rigorous process, set the Plan Operating EBITDA performance levels at threshold, target and maximum payout (see table to the right). Consistent with prior years, the target Plan Operating EBITDA goal was set by the Committee at a level equal to the budget approved by the Board for 2024 (the “2024 Budget”).
