![array black and white logo jpeg.jpg](usm-20250820_g1.jpg)

Dear Shareholders:

The Company has undergone significant changes in 2025.

In May 2024, UScellular announced that it had entered into an agreement to sell its wireless operations and select spectrum assets to T-Mobile, US Inc. for $4.4 billion, including up to $2 billion of assumed debt.

The transaction closed on August 1, 2025 and United States Cellular Corporation changed its name to Array Digital Infrastructure, Inc. ("Array"). The common stock continues to trade on the New York Stock Exchange and the ticker was changed from USM to AD.

Additionally on August 1, 2025, your Board of Directors declared a special cash dividend payment of $23.00 per share payable on August 19, 2025, to shareholders of record as of August 11, 2025.

With the close of the T-Mobile transaction, Array is operating primarily as a tower business with over 4,400 owned towers. Array also owns wireless spectrum and equity-method investments. The company has entered into agreements to sell additional spectrum licenses and will continue to look for opportunities to monetize its remaining spectrum.

**Board and Executive Leadership Changes**

At closing, Douglas W. Chambers became interim President and Chief Executive Officer of Array. Prior to that Mr. Chambers served as Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer. As interim President and CEO of Array, he will be responsible for overseeing operations and strategic initiatives related to the portfolio of 4,400 owned towers, equity method investment interests and retained wireless spectrum.

Vicki L. Villacrez has now assumed the position of Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer of Array. Ms. Villacrez has been a member of the Board of Directors of TDS since 2023 and a member of the Array Board since 2022. Ms. Villacrez also serves as TDS' Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer.

Concurrent with the closing, the Board reduced its size from 13 to 9 members and Deirdre C. Drake, Michael S. Irizarry, Gregory P. Josefowicz, Cecelia D. Stewart and Laurent C. Therivel resigned from Board. In addition, Joseph R. Hanley joined the Board.

Also at closing Michael S. Irizarry, Kevin R. Lowell and Laurent C. Therivel ceased to be executive officers of the company.

Also, on August 1, 2025, Walter C. D. Carlson succeeded LeRoy T. Carlson, Jr. as Chair of Array.

Previously, Kenneth Dixon joined the Board replacing James Butman effective July 1, 2025.

**Board Committee Changes**

Harry J. Harczak, Jr., Esteban C. Iriarte and Xavier D. Williams will continue as independent directors of the Array Board, and the Board appointed Mr. Iriarte to serve on the Audit Committee.

The full Array board will assume the responsibilities that were previously delegated to the Long-Term Incentive Compensation Committee, which was dissolved upon the closing of the transaction with T-Mobile.

*The following are questions and answers relating to the actions being taken at the 2025 Annual Meeting and do not include all of the information that may be important to you. You should carefully read this entire Proxy Statement and not rely solely on the following questions and answers.*

**What matters are being presented at the 2025 Annual Meeting?**

A summary of the matters being presented and important voting information is provided below:

---

| | | | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|

| 4. Approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of named executive officers ("Say-on-Pay") | FOR | For, Against, or Abstain | \*\* | Will have the same effect as a vote against | No effect | 24 |

---

\* Directors will be elected by a plurality of the votes cast by the class or group of shareholders, entitled to vote in the election of such directors, which are present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and withhold votes will have no legal effect in the election of directors.

\*\* The approvals of Proposals 2 and 4 will require the affirmative vote of the holders of stock having a majority of the votes that could be cast by the holders of all stock entitled to vote on the applicable proposal which are present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting.

\*\*\* The approval of Proposal 3 will require the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of all of the outstanding shares of all stock entitled to vote.

\*\*\*\* Because Proposal 2 is a discretionary item under New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) listing standards, we do not expect any broker non-votes for this proposal.

**Voting Rights**

Under the Restated Charter, each Series A Common Share is entitled to ten votes on all applicable matters, and each Common Share is entitled to one vote on all applicable matters. The holders of Common Shares, voting as a separate class, are entitled to elect 25% of the directors (rounded up to the nearest whole number), and the holders of Series A Common Shares are entitled to elect the remaining 75% of the directors (rounded down to the nearest whole number).

**What is the record date for the meeting?**

The close of business on August 15, 2025.

Shareholders must contact Array's Corporate Secretary to make arrangements to view the complete list of shareholders entitled to vote at the 2025 Annual Meeting. This examination by any shareholder, for any purpose germane to the 2025 Annual Meeting, will only be during normal business hours in the ten-day period prior to the 2025 Annual Meeting.

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#id6580524fce4487cae8d141535d44758_13)</u>

**How can I contact Array's Corporate Secretary?**

You can contact her at Jane W. McCahon, Corporate Secretary, Array, 500 W. Madison Street, Suite 810, Chicago, Illinois 60661 or by email at jane.mccahon@tdsinc.com.

**What shares of stock entitle holders to vote at the meeting?**

We have the following classes or series of stock outstanding, each of which entitles holders to vote at the meeting:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Common Shares; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Series A Common Shares.

The Common Shares are listed on the NYSE under the symbol "AD".

No public market exists for the Series A Common Shares, but the Series A Common Shares are convertible on a share-for-share basis into Common Shares.

On the record date, Array had outstanding 53,373,214 Common Shares, par value $1.00 per share (excluding 1,694,787 Common Shares held by Array and a subsidiary of Array), and 33,005,877 Series A Common Shares, par value $1.00 per share.

**What is the voting power of the outstanding shares in the election of directors?**

The following shows information relating to the outstanding shares and voting power of such shares in the election of directors as of the record date:

---

| | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **Class or Series of Common Stock** | **Outstanding<br>Shares** | **Votes<br>per Share** | **Total<br>Voting Power** | **Total Number<br>of Directors<br>Elected by<br>Class or Series** |
| Series A Common Shares | 33005877 | 10 | 330058770 | 6 |
| Common Shares | 53373214 | 1 | 53373214 | 3 |
| Total Directors |  |  |  | 9 |

---

Based on the current Board size of nine directors, TDS, as the sole holder of Series A Common Shares, is entitled to elect six directors and the holders of Common Shares (including TDS) are entitled to elect three other directors.

*Director Voting Sunset Provision.*

As noted above, the holders of Series A Common Shares and holders of Common Shares vote separately in the election of directors. However, pursuant to Array's Restated Charter, if the number of Series A Common Shares issued and outstanding at any time falls below 12.5% of the number of outstanding shares of common stock, because of the conversion of Series A Common Shares into Common Shares or otherwise, the holder of Series A Common Shares would lose the right to vote as a separate class, and thereafter the holder of Series A Common Shares, with ten votes per share, and the holders of Common Shares, with one vote per share, would vote as a single class in the election of all directors.

**What is the voting power of the outstanding shares in matters other than the election of directors?**

The following shows information relating to the outstanding shares and voting power of such shares in matters other than the election of directors as of the record date.

---

| | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **Class or Series of Common Stock** | **Outstanding<br>Shares** | **Votes<br>per Share** | **Total<br>Voting Power** | **Percent** |
| Series A Common Shares | 33005877 | 10 | 330058770 | 86.1% |
| Common Shares | 53373214 | 1 | 53373214 | 13.9% |
|  |  |  | 383431984 | 100.0% |

---

*Voting Power Sunset Provision.*

Each Series A Common Share has ten votes per share in all matters and, as a result, the Series A Common Shares have a substantial majority of votes in matters other than the election of directors that the holders of Common Shares are entitled to vote upon. However, this percentage could decrease. For instance, this could occur if TDS converts Series A Common Shares into Common Shares for any reason. Accordingly, the Restated Charter effectively has a sunset provision for voting in matters other than the election of directors because, if a sufficient number of Series A Common Shares are converted into Common Shares, the voting power of Series A Common Shares could decline below 50%.

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#id6580524fce4487cae8d141535d44758_13)</u>

**How does TDS intend to vote?**

TDS, the parent company of Array, is the sole holder of Series A Common Shares and on the record date held 33,005,877 Series A Common Shares. By reason of such holding, TDS has the voting power to elect all of the directors to be elected by the Series A Common Shares. TDS also held 37,782,826 Common Shares on the record date, representing approximately 70.8% of the voting power with respect to the election of the directors to be elected by the holders of Common Shares. TDS has approximately 95.9% of the voting power with respect to matters other than the election of directors that the holders of Common Shares are entitled to vote upon.

TDS has advised us that it intends to vote:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• FOR the Board of Directors' nominees for election by the Series A Common Shares and Common Shares,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• FOR the proposal to ratify the selection of PwC,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• FOR the Charter Amendments, and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• FOR the Say-on-Pay proposal.

**How do I vote?**

Proxies are being requested from the holders of Common Shares in connection with the election of three directors, the ratification of PwC, the Charter Amendments, and the Say-on-Pay proposal. Please sign, date and mail your proxy card(s) in the enclosed self-addressed envelope to Proxy Services, C/O Computershare Investor Services, PO Box 43101, Providence, RI 02940-3101 or vote on the Internet using the control/identification number on your proxy card in accordance with the instructions set forth on the proxy card. You have the power to revoke your proxy at any time before it is voted.

**How will proxies be voted?**

All properly voted and un-revoked proxies received in time for the 2025 Annual Meeting will be voted in the manner directed.

If no voting direction is made, a properly submitted proxy by a shareholder will be voted FOR the election of each of the director nominees in Proposal 1, FOR Proposal 2, FOR Proposal 3 and FOR Proposal 4.

**How will my shares be voted if I own shares through a broker?**

If you are the beneficial owner of shares held in "street name" by a broker, bank, or other nominee ("broker"), such broker, as the record holder of the shares, is required to vote those shares in accordance with your instructions.

In the event that there are no contested matters at the meeting, the broker may be entitled to vote the shares on your behalf with respect to "discretionary" items but will not be permitted to vote the shares with respect to "non-discretionary" items (in which case such shares will be treated as "broker non-votes"). In general, the ratification of auditors is considered a discretionary item, as such we do not expect any broker non-votes for this proposal. Matters such as the election of directors, the Charter Amendments and votes on Say-on-Pay are non-discretionary items. In such cases, if your broker does not have specific or standing instructions, your shares will be treated as broker non-votes and may not be voted on such matters.

Accordingly, we urge you to provide instructions to your broker so that your votes may be counted on all matters. If your shares are held in street name, your broker will include a voting instruction form with this 2025 Proxy Statement. We strongly encourage you to vote your shares by following the instructions provided on the voting instruction form. Please return your voting instruction form to your broker and/or contact your broker to ensure that your shares are voted on your behalf.

**What constitutes a quorum for the meeting?**

A quorum is the minimum number of shares that must be represented at the Annual Meeting to conduct business at the Annual Meeting. A majority of the voting power of shares of capital stock in matters other than the election of directors and entitled to vote, present in person or represented by proxy, will constitute a quorum to permit the 2025 Annual Meeting to proceed. Withheld votes, abstentions and any broker non-votes will be counted in establishing a quorum for the meeting. If the shares beneficially owned by TDS are present in person or represented by proxy at the 2025 Annual Meeting, such shares will constitute a quorum. In addition, where a separate vote by a class or group is required with respect to a proposal, a quorum is also required with respect to such proposal for the vote to proceed.

In the election of directors, where a separate vote by a class or voting group is required, the holders of a majority of the votes of the stock of such class or voting group, present in person or represented by proxy, will constitute a quorum entitled to take action with respect to that vote on that matter. If the shares beneficially owned by TDS are present in person or represented by proxy at the 2025 Annual Meeting, such shares will constitute a quorum with respect to the six directors to be elected by the Series A Common Shares and the three directors to be elected by the Common Shares.

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#id6580524fce4487cae8d141535d44758_13)</u>

The holders of a majority of the votes of the stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote with respect to the other proposals, present in person or represented by proxy, will constitute a quorum at the 2025 Annual Meeting in connection with such other proposals. If the shares beneficially owned by TDS are present in person or represented by proxy at the 2025 Annual Meeting, such shares will constitute a quorum in connection with such proposals.

**What does it mean if I receive more than one proxy card?**

If you hold multiple series of shares, or hold shares in multiple registrations, you will receive a proxy card for each such account. Please sign, date, and return all proxy cards you receive to ensure all of your shares are counted. If you choose to vote by Internet, please vote each proxy card you receive. Only your latest dated proxy for each account will be voted at the 2025 Annual Meeting.

**Can I change my vote or revoke my proxy?**

Yes. You can change your vote or revoke your proxy at any time before it is voted at the 2025 Annual Meeting by written notice to the Corporate Secretary of Array, by voting a later-dated proxy or by voting by ballot at the meeting. Only the latest dated proxy card you vote will be counted for voting purposes.

**How do I register to attend the Annual Meeting virtually on the Internet?**

If you are a registered shareholder (i.e., you hold your shares through our transfer agent, Computershare), you do not need to register to attend the Annual Meeting virtually on the Internet. Please follow the instructions on the notice or proxy card that you received. If you hold your shares through an intermediary, such as a bank or broker, you must register in advance to attend the Annual Meeting virtually on the Internet.

Shareholders as of the record date can submit questions in writing in advance of the meeting through https://meetnow.global/MFYXJQ4. Shareholders attending the meeting as a shareholder of record or a registered beneficial owner with a legal proxy who obtained a control number from Computershare will also have an opportunity to submit questions in writing during the meeting.

**Your Board of Directors unanimously recommends a vote "FOR" the above nominees.**

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#id6580524fce4487cae8d141535d44758_13)</u>

The Board of Directors does not have any specific, minimum qualifications that must be met by a nominee, or any specific qualities or skills that are necessary for directors to possess. The Board of Directors believes that substantial judgment, diligence and care are required to identify and select qualified persons and it does not believe that it would be appropriate to place limitations on its own discretion.

The Board of Directors has consistently sought to nominate eminently qualified individuals that can provide substantial benefit and guidance. Array also believes that it is desirable to have different backgrounds, experience, skills and other characteristics. In addition, the conclusion of which persons should serve is based in part on the fact that Array is a controlled company with a capital structure in which different classes of stock vote for different directorships. In particular, because TDS owns 100% of the Series A Common Shares, nominations of directors for election by the holder of the Series A Common Shares are based on the recommendation of TDS. In addition, the Board of Directors may consider the recommendations of large shareholders, including TDS, in nominating persons for election as directors by the holders of Common Shares.

***Your Board of Directors unanimously recommends a vote "FOR" each of the above nominees for election by the holders of Series A Common Shares.***

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#id6580524fce4487cae8d141535d44758_13)</u>

**CORPORATE GOVERNANCE**

**Board of Directors**

The business and affairs of Array are managed by or under the direction of the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors consists of nine members. Holders of Common Shares elect 25% of the directors rounded up to the nearest whole number, or three directors based on a board size of nine directors. TDS, as the sole holder of Series A Common Shares, elects the remaining six directors.

**Board Leadership Structure**

Under our leadership structure, the same person does not serve as both the chair of the board and chief executive officer. Effective August 1, 2025, Walter C. D. Carlson became Chair and, in that capacity, sets the agenda and presides over Board of Directors meetings, and assesses the performance of Array. Douglas W. Chambers serves as President and Chief Executive Officer and is responsible for day-to-day leadership and performance and, in that capacity, regularly confers and consults with the Chair with respect to important strategic, operating and financial activities and decisions.

This leadership structure is set forth in our Bylaws. Array has determined that this leadership structure is appropriate given that Array is controlled by TDS. Additionally, Array believes that its leadership structure facilitates risk oversight because the role of the President and Chief Executive Officer, who has primary operating responsibility to assess and manage Array's exposure to risk, is separated from the role of the Chair of the Board, who sets the agenda for and presides over Board of Directors meetings at which the Array board exercises its oversight responsibility with respect to risk.

**Board Role in Risk Oversight**

The Board of Directors is primarily responsible for oversight of the risk assessment and risk management process. Although the Board of Directors can delegate this responsibility to board committees, the Board of Directors has not done so. Instead the actual risk assessment and risk management is carried out by the President and Chief Executive Officer and other officers and then reported to the Board of Directors.

As part of its oversight responsibilities, the Board of Directors reviews the Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) program which applies to TDS and all of its business units, including Array. This program was designed with the assistance of an outside consultant and is integrated into TDS' existing management and strategic planning processes, including such processes of Array. The ERM program provides a common enterprise-wide language and discipline around risk identification, quantification and mitigation.

Although the Board of Directors has ultimate oversight authority over risk, certain committees have responsibilities relating to risk. Under NYSE listing standards, and as set forth in its charter, the Audit Committee is required to discuss policies with respect to risk assessment and risk management. Accordingly, the Audit Committee discusses Array's major financial and operational risk exposures and the steps management has taken to monitor and control such exposures in connection with its review of financial statements and related matters on a quarterly basis.

In addition, as part of the ERM program, the Audit Committee, while not solely responsible for ERM, discusses guidelines and policies to govern the process by which risk assessment and risk management are handled. The Audit Committee receives updates and discusses policies with respect to risk assessment and risk management on a regular basis. In 2022, the committee expanded its charter to include the review of procedures and processes to ensure the accuracy of its material disclosures and reporting related to Environment, Social and Governance (ESG) matters.

In August 2025, the Long-Term Incentive Compensation Committee (LTICC), which had responsibility relating to the equity compensation of the executive officers was terminated and disbanded and now the full Array board will make equity plan determinations previously made by the LTICC.

Furthermore, TDS has established a Technology Advisory Group (TAG) for TDS and its business units, including Array. The TAG enhances the Board's risk oversight through its review of technologies the Company is investing in and through discussion of potential technology disruptions. Related to this, the Array Board of Directors established a TAG Committee of the Board of Directors that consists of directors who participate in the TAG.

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#id6580524fce4487cae8d141535d44758_13)</u>

**Board Oversight of Cybersecurity** 

The full Board of Directors engages in oversight of Array's cybersecurity risks. The Board of Directors receives regular updates from management on technology and security updates and Array's assessment of cybersecurity threats and mitigation plans. The TDS Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) provides the full Board of Directors an annual update and discussion of the cybersecurity program. The Array Audit Committee oversees the processes over internal controls and financial reporting that includes controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that significant cybersecurity incidents are communicated to both senior management and the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee meets with the CISO at least two times per year. Cybersecurity is also discussed with the Technology Advisory Group of the Board of Directors as warranted.

**Director Independence and New York Stock Exchange Listing Standards**

Array Common Shares are listed on the NYSE. Under NYSE listing standards, Array is a "controlled company" because over 50% of the voting power for the election of directors is held by TDS. Accordingly, Array is exempt from certain listing standards under the rules of the NYSE that require listed companies that are not controlled companies to (i) have a board composed of a majority of directors who qualify as independent, (ii) have a compensation committee composed entirely of directors who qualify as independent, and (iii) have a nominating/corporate governance committee composed entirely of directors who qualify as independent.

As discussed below under "Audit Committee," the following members of the Audit Committee qualify as independent under the NYSE listing standards: Harry J. Harczak, Jr. (chairperson), Esteban C. Iriarte and Xavier D. Williams.

**Meetings of Board of Directors**

The strategic alternatives review for Array increased the number of board meetings. The Array Board of Directors held eleven meetings during 2024, of which five were regularly scheduled and six were special board meetings related to the aforementioned strategic alternatives review. Each director attended at least 75% of the total number of board meetings and at least 75% of the total number of committee meetings on which such person was a member of the committee (during the period such person was a director or member of such committee).

**Corporate Governance Best Practices**

The following identifies a number of the good corporate governance best practices adopted and followed by Array:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Annual election of directors.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Array has adopted Corporate Governance Guidelines that are intended to reflect good corporate governance and other best practices.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The positions of (i) Chair of the Board and (ii) President and Chief Executive Officer are separated.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The Audit Committee, which is comprised entirely of independent directors as required, operates under a charter and in a manner that is intended to reflect good corporate governance and other best practices.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Annual self-assessment of board.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Array holds an annual "Say-on-Pay" vote.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• At least once per year, independent directors meet without non-independent directors and management.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Non-management directors meet at regularly scheduled executive sessions without management.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• No super-majority vote is required to amend the Array Charter or Bylaws.

**Corporate Governance Guidelines**

Array's corporate governance guidelines address (i) Board of Directors structure, (ii) director qualification standards, (iii) director responsibilities, orientation and continuing education, (iv) director compensation, (v) board resources and access to management and independent advisors, (vi) annual performance evaluation of the board and committees, (vii) board committees, (viii) management succession and (ix) periodic review of the guidelines.

These Guidelines provide that, once each year, the Board of Directors will discuss corporate governance, including the allocation of seats between independent and non-independent directors.

A copy of such guidelines is available on Array's Investor Relations website, investors.arrayinc.com, Investor Relations— Governance—Governance Documents—Corporate Governance Guidelines.

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#id6580524fce4487cae8d141535d44758_13)</u>

**Board Self-Assessment**

Pursuant to these Guidelines, under the leadership of the Chair, the Array Board of Directors performed a self-assessment and evaluated its performance and effectiveness as a board in 2024. This self-assessment covered matters relating to board meetings, board composition, committees, board oversight, and other matters.

**Pre-Approval Procedures**

The Audit Committee has adopted a policy pursuant to which all audit and non-audit services provided by Array's principal independent registered public accounting firm must be pre-approved by the Audit Committee, consistent with the requirements of the Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002 and rules issued thereunder.

**Compensation Committee**

Under NYSE listing standards, Array is a controlled company and not required to have an independent compensation committee. Effective August 2025, the full Array board will make equity plan determinations previously made by the LTICC. Previously, LeRoy T. Carlson, Jr., former Chair, functioned as the compensation committee for all matters in 2024. In 2024, Laurent C. Therivel, in consultation with LeRoy T. Carlson, Jr., reviewed and set the cash compensation for Named Executive Officers (NEOs) other than himself. See "Compensation Discussion and Analysis" and "Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation" for further information.

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#id6580524fce4487cae8d141535d44758_13)</u>

**Director Nomination Process**

As a controlled company, Array is exempt from the requirement to have a corporate governance and nominating committee comprised solely of independent directors. Accordingly, Array does not have a corporate governance and nominating committee or charter. Instead, the TDS Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee develops selection objectives and makes recommendations for qualified individuals to serve on the board. The entire Board of Directors participates in the consideration of director nominees.

In its annual board self-assessment, the full Board of Directors considers its composition, and the composition of each of its committees, and discusses expertise that may be needed in the future. In connection with the nominations of directors for election, the Board of Directors considers the tenure, qualifications and expertise of all of the directors. The Board of Directors does not have any specific, minimum qualifications that it believes must be met by a nominee.

The Board of Directors does not have a formal policy with regard to the consideration of director candidates recommended by shareholders. Because TDS has sole voting power in the election of directors elected by the holder of Series A Common Shares and a majority of the voting power in the election of directors elected by holders of Common Shares, nominations of directors for election by the holders of Series A Common Shares and Common Shares are generally based on the recommendation of TDS. With respect to candidates to be elected by the holders of Common Shares, the Board of Directors may from time to time informally consider candidates recommended by shareholders who hold a significant number of Common Shares, in addition to the recommendation of TDS. Shareholders who desire to nominate directors must follow the procedures set forth in Array's Bylaws.

The Array Bylaws provide that a candidate will not be eligible for election or continued service as a director unless he or she is eligible to serve as a director of a company that controls licenses granted by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), as determined by the Board of Directors with the advice of counsel. Another qualification requirement provides that a candidate will not be eligible for election or continued service as a director if he or she is or becomes affiliated with, employed by or a representative of, or has or acquires a material personal involvement with, or material financial interest in, a Business Competitor (as defined in the Array Bylaws), as determined by the Board of Directors. Another qualification requirement provides that a candidate will not be eligible for election or continued service as a director if, as determined by the Board of Directors with the advice of counsel, (i) such candidate's election as a director would violate federal, state or foreign law or applicable stock exchange requirements (other than those related to independence) or (ii) such candidate has been convicted, including a plea of guilty or nolo contendere, of any felony, or of any misdemeanor involving moral turpitude.

The Bylaws provide that a person properly nominated by a shareholder for election as a director shall not be eligible for election as a director unless he or she signs and returns to the Secretary of Array, within fifteen days of a request therefor, written responses to any questions posed by the Secretary, that are intended to (i) determine whether such person may qualify as independent and would qualify to serve as a director under rules of the FCC, and (ii) obtain information that would be disclosed in a proxy statement with respect to such person as a nominee for election as a director and other material information about such person.

As reflected in its Code of Business Conduct, Array does not discriminate on the basis of gender, age, race, color, sexual orientation, religion, ancestry, national origin, marital status, disability, military or veteran status or citizenship status. In addition, in considering whether to nominate individuals as director candidates, the Board of Directors believes that it is desirable to have directors who bring different backgrounds, experience, skills and other characteristics to permit the board to have a variety of views and insights.

In general, in determining whether to nominate directors for re-election, the Board of Directors considers all facts and circumstances. Potential candidates are initially screened by the Chair and by other persons whom the Chair designates. Following this process, when appropriate, information about the candidate is presented to and discussed by the full Board of Directors.

**Shareholder Communication with Directors**

Shareholders or other interested parties may send communications to the Board of Directors, to the non-management directors, to the independent directors or to specified individual directors of Array at any time. Shareholders or other interested parties should direct their communication to such persons or group in care of the Corporate Secretary of Array, 500 W. Madison Street, Suite 810, Chicago, Illinois 60661 or by email at jane.mccahon@tdsinc.com. Any germane shareholder or other communications related to proper board business that are addressed to the Board of Directors, the non-management directors, the independent directors or specified individual directors will be delivered by the Secretary to such persons or group.

Information on communicating with directors is available on Array's Investor Relations website, investors.arrayinc.com, Investor Relations—Governance—Contact the Board.

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#id6580524fce4487cae8d141535d44758_13)</u>

**Non-Management Directors**

As required by the NYSE listing standards, the non-management directors of Array meet at regularly scheduled executive sessions without management. In 2024, Walter C. D. Carlson, who was a non-management director at the time, presided at all meetings of the non-management directors. In addition, the independent directors of Array meet at least once per year in an executive session without management or directors who are not independent.

**Array Policy on Attendance of Directors at Annual Meeting of Shareholders**

In 2025, Array will be holding its Annual Meeting virtually. All directors are invited and encouraged to attend each annual meeting of shareholders, which is normally followed by a meeting of the Board of Directors. In general, all directors attend each annual meeting of shareholders unless they are unable to do so because of unavoidable commitments or intervening events. All of the persons serving as directors at the time attended the 2024 annual meeting.

**EXECUTIVE OFFICERS**

Walter C. D. Carlson, Douglas W. Chambers and Vicki L. Villacrez are the Company's executive officers. Information regarding these individuals is included in the disclosure above under "Election of Directors".

**Codes of Business Conduct and Ethics Applicable to Directors and Officers**

Array has adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics for Officers and Directors and a Code of Business Conduct that is applicable to all employees of Array and its subsidiaries. The foregoing codes can be found on Array's Investor Relations website, investors.arrayinc*.com*, Investor Relations—Governance—Governance Documents—Code of Business Conduct and Ethics for Officers and Directors and under —Governance—Governance Documents—Code of Conduct.

The culture at Array is based upon the fundamental belief that our company's long-term success is inextricably tied to associate engagement and high ethical standards. Array's Code of Conduct publicly sets forth expectations for ethical behavior across the enterprise that all associates must abide by in all business dealings.

Array intends to disclose any amendments to any of the foregoing codes, by posting such information to Array's website. Any waivers of any of the foregoing codes for directors or executive officers will be approved by Array's Board of Directors or an authorized committee thereof, as applicable, and disclosed on either the website or in a Form 8-K. There were no such waivers in 2024.

**PROPOSAL 2**

**RATIFICATION OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM FOR 2025**

**What am I being asked to vote on in Proposal 2?**

In Proposal 2, we are requesting shareholders to ratify the selection of PwC as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025.

**How does the Board of Directors recommend that I vote on this proposal?**

The Board of Directors and the Audit Committee unanimously recommends a vote FOR the approval of the ratification of PwC.

Representatives of PwC will be available at the Annual Meeting with an opportunity to make a statement and respond to appropriate questions from shareholders.

**Is this vote binding on the Board of Directors?**

This vote is an advisory vote only and, therefore, it will not bind Array or our Board of Directors or Audit Committee. We are not required to obtain shareholder ratification of the selection of PwC as our independent registered public accounting firm by our Bylaws or otherwise. However, we have elected to seek such ratification at the 2025 Annual Meeting.

Under the Intercompany Agreement with TDS, Array has agreed to engage the firm of independent registered public accountants selected by TDS for purposes of auditing Array's financial statements, including the financial statements of our direct and indirect subsidiaries, and providing certain other services. TDS has engaged PwC for such purposes.

Should the shareholders fail to ratify the selection of PwC, the Audit Committee will review whether to retain such firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025, subject to Array's obligations under the Intercompany Agreement.

**Your Board of Directors and the Audit Committee unanimously recommends a vote "FOR" the approval of Proposal 2.**

**AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT**

The Audit Committee is composed of three members of the Board of Directors who are "independent" as defined by the New York Stock Exchange. The Audit Committee operates under a written charter approved by the Board of Directors, a copy of which is available on the website, investors.arrayinc.com, under Investor Relations—Governance—Governance Documents—Audit Committee. The charter was most recently updated in December 2024.

Management is responsible for Array's internal controls and the financial reporting process. Array utilizes services from the TDS internal audit staff, which performs testing of internal controls and the financial reporting process. Array's independent registered public accounting firm is responsible for performing an independent audit of Array's consolidated financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (the "PCAOB") and to issue a report thereon. The Audit Committee's responsibility is to monitor and oversee these processes.

In this context, the Audit Committee reviewed and discussed the audited financial statements, as of and for the year ended December 31, 2024, with management, the internal audit staff and representatives of PwC, Array's independent registered public accounting firm. Management represented to the Audit Committee that its consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The discussions with PwC also included the matters required to be discussed by the applicable requirements of the PCAOB and the SEC, relating to information regarding the scope and results of the audit. The Audit Committee also received from PwC written disclosures and a letter regarding its independence as required by applicable requirements of the PCAOB and this information was discussed with PwC. The Audit Committee also considered and concluded that the provision of non-audit services by PwC to Array during 2024 was compatible with their independence.

Based on and in reliance upon these reviews and discussions, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board of Directors that the audited financial statements be included in Array's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

The Audit Committee holds quarterly regularly scheduled meetings to review and approve the financial results for the immediately preceding period. The Audit Committee reviews Array's Forms 10-Q and 10-K prior to filing with the SEC. The Audit Committee's agenda for meetings is established by the Audit Committee's chairperson with input from other Committee members and the TDS Vice President—Internal Audit.

At its regularly scheduled meetings in 2024, the Audit Committee reviewed Array's policies and procedures with respect to risk assessment and risk management. The overall adequacy and effectiveness of Array's legal, regulatory and ethical compliance programs, including Code of Business Conduct, anti-Harassment policy and Whistleblower hotline activity were also reviewed. In addition, at each of its regularly scheduled meetings, the Audit Committee spoke with senior members of the financial management team, its General Counsel, TDS's Vice President - Internal Audit and representatives of PwC at which candid discussions regarding financial management, legal, accounting, auditing and internal control issues took place. Members of IT security and technology teams meet with the Audit Committee at least twice a year to discuss cybersecurity issues and concerns.

The Audit Committee is updated periodically on management's process to assess the adequacy of system of internal control over financial reporting, the framework used to make the assessment and management's conclusions on the effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting. The Audit Committee also discussed with PwC Array's internal control assessment process and management's assessment as well as PwC's evaluation of Array's system of internal control over financial reporting.

The Audit Committee evaluates the performance of PwC and the senior audit engagement team, provides feedback to the senior audit engagement team on the firm's performance and determines whether to reengage PwC or consider other audit firms, subject to Array's obligations under the Intercompany Agreement with TDS. The Audit Committee considers the quality and efficiency of the services provided by the auditors and its dialogue with the Committee, the auditors' capabilities and the auditors' technical expertise and knowledge of Array's operations and industry. Based on this evaluation, the Audit Committee intends to engage PwC as Array's independent registered public accountants for the year ending December 31, 2025. Although the Audit Committee has the sole authority to appoint the independent registered public accounting firm, Array anticipates that it will continue to request shareholders to ratify the selection of the independent registered public accounting firm at annual meetings of shareholders.

Array has engaged PwC since 2002 which leads Array to consider tenure in its evaluation of PwC. Based on the quality of PwC's services and the mandated rotation of PwC's lead engagement partner in 2023, the Audit Committee is confident that Array is receiving quality, independent public accounting services and that continued retention of PwC is in the best interest of Array and its shareholders.

In fulfilling its oversight responsibilities, the Audit Committee reviewed and discussed with management and PwC the audited financial statements of Array, including the quality, not just the acceptability, of the financial reporting, the reasonableness of significant accounting judgments and estimates, the clarity of disclosures in the financial statements, and the assessment of Array's internal controls over financial reporting. In performing all of these functions, the Audit Committee acts in an oversight capacity and relies on Array's management and PwC.

By the members of the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of Array:

Harry J. Harczak, Jr.Chairperson Esteban C. Iriarte\* Xavier D. Williams

\*Mr. Iriarte was first appointed to the Audit Committee on August 1, 2025.

**PROPOSAL 3**

**APPROVAL OF AMENDMENTS TO OUR RESTATED CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION**

We are asking our shareholders to approve amendments (the "Charter Amendments") to the Restated Certificate of Incorporation of Array (the "Charter") to update the description of Array's current business following the closing of the sale of our wireless business to T-Mobile.

After careful consideration, the Board of Directors has determined that it is advisable and in the best interests of the Company and our shareholders to approve the Charter Amendments. The following general description of the proposed Charter Amendments is qualified in its entirety by reference to the text of the proposed amendments, which is attached to this proxy statement as Appendix A.

**Background**

The Company is incorporated in the State of Delaware and therefore subject to the Delaware General Corporation Law. Since its original incorporation, the Company has been in a business engaged in the construction, ownership and management of cellular telephone systems. Since 1987, the Company's Charter has provided that, so long as not less than 500,000 Series A Common Shares are outstanding:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.The Company, without the written consent of TDS, shall not, directly or indirectly (through a subsidiary of the corporation or any other person or otherwise) for its own account or that of another, own, invest or otherwise have an interest in, lease, operate or manage any business other than a business engaged solely in the construction of, the ownership of interests in and/or the management of cellular telephone systems. This provision is found in Article III of the Charter.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.The general corporate opportunity waiver provision in favor of TDS included in Article VII of the Charter does not apply, subject to exceptions included in the Charter, to an "opportunity, transaction, agreement or other arrangement [that] relates solely to the construction of, the ownership of interest in and/or the management of cellular telephone systems."

As a result of the Company's previously disclosed transaction with T-Mobile, it no longer operates a cellular telephone system. Array is now principally engaged in the wireless communication tower business. The Charter Amendments are designed to reflect this important change in the Company's business.

On the date of the closing of the T-Mobile transaction, TDS gave its written consent to the Company that it approved Array's engaging in the wireless communication tower business, including owning property customarily used in, and engaging in activities customarily engaged in by, such a business. The written consent provided by TDS also extended to the Company's continued ownership of wireless spectrum and investments in non-managed wireless operating partnerships.

**Reasons for the Charter Amendments**

The proposed Charter Amendments retain the current structure of Article III and Article VII of the Charter, but they remove now-outdated references to a cellular telephone business and replace them with references to the tower business.

With respect to Article III, if approved the Charter Amendments would require TDS consent for the operation of a business other than a wireless communication towers business as opposed to a cellular telephone business. As noted above, TDS has already provided such a consent with respect to the businesses in which the Company is currently operating.

With respect to Article VII, if approved the Charter Amendments would provide that the general corporate opportunity waiver in favor of TDS included in the Charter does not apply to transactions that (i) relate to a wireless communication tower business and (ii) arose after August 1, 2025.

See Appendix A for the specific language of the proposed Charter Amendments.

**Effectiveness of the Charter Amendments if Approved**

If the Charter Amendments are approved, they will become effective upon their being filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, which is expected to occur shortly following the 2025 Annual Meeting.

**Your Board of Directors unanimously recommends a vote "FOR" approval of the Charter Amendments.**

**PROPOSAL 4**

**ADVISORY VOTE TO APPROVE EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION**

**What am I being asked to vote on in Proposal 4?**

We are providing shareholders with an opportunity to vote, on an advisory basis, on the compensation of Array's 2024 named executive officers (NEOs) as disclosed in this 2025 Proxy Statement, including Compensation Discussion and Analysis, compensation tables and discussions. The advisory vote on executive compensation described in this proposal is commonly referred to as a "Say-on-Pay" vote. All of the NEOs, other than Douglas W. Chambers, departed the Company with the closing of the T-Mobile transaction.

This proposal gives our shareholders the opportunity to express their views on the overall compensation of our NEOs and the compensation philosophy, policies and practices.

Array is required to request shareholders to vote, on an advisory basis, on the frequency of holding Say-on-Pay votes, commonly referred to as a "Say-on-Frequency" vote, at least once every six years. Array held a Say-on-Frequency vote at the 2023 annual meeting and the shareholders voted by a substantial majority to hold a Say-on-Pay vote every year. Based on the Say-on-Frequency votes in 2023, the Board of Directors adopted a policy to hold the Say-on-Pay vote every year unless and until this policy is changed and it will submit the next Say-on-Frequency proposal to shareholders at the 2029 annual meeting.

**How does the Board of Directors recommend that I vote on this proposal?**

The Board of Directors unanimously recommends a vote FOR approval of the Say-on-Pay proposal.

Array believes that its executive compensation program is reasonable, competitive and strongly focused on pay for performance. Array's compensation objectives for executive officers are to support the overall business strategy and objectives, attract and retain high-quality management, link compensation to both individual and company performance, and provide compensation that is both competitive and consistent with our financial performance.

**Is this vote binding on the Board of Directors?**

The Say-on-Pay vote is an advisory vote only and, therefore, will not bind Array or our Board of Directors. However, the Board of Directors and the Chair will consider the voting results as appropriate when making future decisions regarding executive compensation.

**Your Board of Directors unanimously recommends a vote "FOR" the approval of Proposal 4.**

**EXECUTIVE AND DIRECTOR COMPENSATION**

The following discussion and analysis of our compensation practices and related compensation information should be read in conjunction with the Summary Compensation Table and other tables included below, as well as our financial statements and management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations included in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

In August 2025, the wireless operations and select spectrum of UScellular were sold to T-Mobile and UScellular changed its name to Array Digital Infrastructure, Inc. Throughout this Compensation Discussion and Analysis, references to Array refer to UScellular for the period prior to August 1, 2025. All Named Executive Officers (NEOs), other than Douglas W. Chambers, departed the Company at close. The following Compensation Discussion and Analysis describes the Array executive compensation program in 2024. In 2024, Array had a LTICC that was dissolved on August 1, 2025, and now the full board will make equity plan determinations previously made by the LTICC.

**Compensation Discussion and Analysis**

The Compensation Discussion and Analysis (CD&A) describes the Company's executive compensation programs and explains compensation decisions for the following NEOs in 2024:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **Named Executive Officer** | **Position with the Company During 2024 (1)** |
| Laurent C. Therivel | Director, President and Chief Executive Officer |
| Douglas W. Chambers | Director, Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer |
| Michael S. Irizarry | Director, Executive Vice President, Chief Technology Officer and Head of Engineering and Information Technology |
| Kevin R. Lowell | Executive Vice President, Chief People Officer and Head of Communications |

---

(1)Effective August 1, 2025, Mr. Chambers was appointed as President and Chief Executive Officer and Mr. Therivel ceased to serve in such role as of such date. In connection with the Closing, effective as of August 1, 2025, Messrs. Therivel, Irizarry and Lowell separated from Array. For additional information regarding these transitions, please see "Impact of Strategic Transactions and 2025 Management Transitions" below.

In 2024, LeRoy T. Carlson, Jr., former Chair of Array, received no compensation directly from Array and was compensated by TDS in connection with his services for TDS and TDS subsidiaries, including Array. A portion of the compensation expense incurred by TDS for LeRoy T. Carlson, Jr. was allocated to Array by TDS, along with the allocation of other compensation expense and other expenses of TDS. There is no identification or quantification of the compensation of LeRoy T. Carlson, Jr., or of any other allocated expense in this allocation of cost to Array. See the discussion below under "Intercompany Agreement."

Although Array did not have an independent compensation committee for all executive compensation, long-term equity compensation of executive officers was approved by the fully independent LTICC in 2024, as discussed below.

With respect to the NEOs other than the President and CEO, the Chair of Array reviewed the President and CEO's evaluation of the performance of such NEOs and in consultation with the President and CEO set the annual base salary and bonus compensation levels for such NEOs, and recommended long-term equity compensation to the LTICC, based on such performance evaluations and compensation principles as discussed below.

**2024 Elements of Compensation**

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **Annual Cash<br>Compensation** | **Equity<br>Compensation** | **Other Benefits Available to<br>NEOs** | **Other Generally Applicable<br>Benefits and Plans** |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Salary | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Restricted Stock Units | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Deferred Compensation | • Tax-Deferred Savings Plan<br>• Health & Welfare Benefits<br>• Pension Plan |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Bonus | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Performance Share Units | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan ("SERP") | • Tax-Deferred Savings Plan<br>• Health & Welfare Benefits<br>• Pension Plan |
| | | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Perquisites | • Tax-Deferred Savings Plan<br>• Health & Welfare Benefits<br>• Pension Plan |

---

In 2024, we used our compensation programs to attract, motivate and retain our executives. Our compensation programs and practices were designed to pay for performance and to align management's interests with those of Array's shareholders. We believe that the compensation programs helped drive Array performance by providing a significant amount of compensation in the form of equity, by utilizing both short-term and long-term incentives that are tied to performance, and by making efforts to balance fixed (base salary) and variable (annual cash bonus and equity incentives) compensation.

**2024 Executive Compensation Process**

The process for approving or recommending the elements of compensation begins with an evaluation of the appropriate compensation elements for each NEO, based on the particular duties and responsibilities of the NEO, as well as compensation elements for comparable positions at other companies.

In 2024 the Chair had access to numerous performance measures and financial statistics prepared by Array. The financial information includes the audited financial statements of Array, as well as internal financial reports such as budgets and actual results, operating statistics and other analyses. The Chair and LTICC at the time also considered such other factors that they deem appropriate in making their compensation recommendations or decisions. Ultimately, it was the informed judgment of the Chair and/or the LTICC, after considering all of the foregoing factors, and considering the recommendation of the President and CEO and/or Chair, that determined the elements of compensation for NEOs in 2024.

Annually, the President and CEO recommended the base salaries for the NEOs other than himself, and the Chair reviewed and approved such base salaries and determined the base salary of the President and CEO.

In addition, the President and CEO recommended the annual bonuses for the NEOs other than himself, and the Chair reviewed and approved such bonuses and determined the bonus of the President and CEO.

The LTICC determined long-term equity compensation awards to the NEOs under the Array Long-Term Incentive Plan ("LTIP"), which awards generally include performance share units and/or restricted stock units. The NEOs may also elect to defer a portion of their bonus and receive bonus match units on the portion deferred.

Grants of equity awards to the President and CEO and the other executive officers were generally made at the same time each year. Practice had been to grant equity awards other than bonus match units on the first Monday in April. Starting in 2024, the annual awards were granted on the first Monday in March. Array granted bonus match units on the date that annual bonus amounts were paid each year. Because the annual grant dates were determined prior to the beginning of the year, the proximity of any awards to other significant corporate events is coincidental. Array also granted equity awards during other times of the year as it deemed appropriate, such as in connection with a new hire, promotion or retention. We attempt to make equity awards during periods when we do not have material non-public information ("MNPI") that could impact our stock price and we do not time the release of MNPI based on equity grant dates.

The Chair and the LTICC did not consider an officer's outstanding equity awards or stock ownership levels when determining such officer's compensation. The Chair and LTICC evaluated compensation based on performance for a particular year and other considerations as described herein and do not consider stock ownership to be relevant.

**Compensation Principles**

**We believe that equity-based compensation aligns executives' interests with shareholders, drives performance and facilitates retention of superior talent.** In 2024, annual equity awards consisted of performance share units (PSUs) and restricted stock units (RSUs).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• PSUs are paid in Company stock based on the outcome of the performance goals that are set for a performance period assuming the NEO remains employed through the three-year cliff vesting date. The PSUs granted in 2024 had a one year performance period (January 1, 2024 through December 31, 2024) and a Return on Capital metric (weighted 50%) and a Simple Free Cash Flow metric (weighted 50%).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The RSUs granted in 2024 are time-vested awards that will be paid one-third each year on the anniversary of the grant date in Company stock, assuming the NEO remains employed through the vesting dates.

**Incentive Compensation links compensation with goal attainment.** The Chair and the President and CEO continue to believe that linking compensation to certain performance metrics results in a performance driven culture. The majority of compensation awarded to NEOs is dependent upon Company performance. In 2024, the Chair and the President and CEO set performance goals they believed to be challenging in connection with the annual bonus awarded to NEOs under the Array Annual Incentive Plan.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**•** The following metrics were used to calculate 70% of the NEO's bonus award under the Array Annual Incentive Plan: Consolidated Total Service Revenues (35% weighting), Consolidated Operating Cash Flow (28% weighting) and Consolidated Capital Expenditures (7% weighting).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The Chair's Assessment on overall Company performance measure (10% weighting) and Individual Performance measure (20% weighting) were used to calculate 30% of the bonus award.

**President and CEO Incentive Compensation:** The President and CEO participated in the Array Annual Incentive Plan with the other NEOs. The Chair evaluated the President and CEO's achievement with respect to the Individual Performance measure applicable to him under the Array Annual Incentive Plan, based on his individual performance, on a short-term and long-term basis, with respect to his leadership of the Company, the development and maintenance of effective working relationships across the enterprise, his stated achievement of key goals and objectives and his other duties and responsibilities.

**Fixed compensation (base salary) represents a smaller portion of total target compensation than variable compensation.** The Company makes efforts to appropriately balance fixed (base salary) and variable (annual cash bonus and equity incentives) compensation to each NEO.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• In 2024, fixed compensation (base salary) represented 13% and variable compensation (annual cash bonus and equity incentives) represented 87% of Mr. Therivel's total target compensation; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• For the remaining NEOs, 2024 fixed compensation (base salary) represented 25% (on average) and variable compensation (annual cash bonus and equity incentives) represented 75% (on average) of total target compensation.

The following chart summarizes total target compensation established for each NEO in 2024:

**Executive Compensation Programs Support Goals and Objectives**

Array was committed to providing the very best in customer satisfaction, achieving long-term profitable growth, and building the high-quality teams required to make this possible. As such, we focused on operating in a fiscally responsible manner, and on recruiting and retaining talented employees who believe in the Company's values and long-term perspective.

The objectives of Array's compensation programs for its executive officers was generally to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• support Array's overall business strategy and objectives;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• attract and retain high quality management;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• link individual compensation with attainment of Array objectives and individual performance goals; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• provide competitive compensation opportunities consistent with the financial performance of Array.

The primary financial focus of Array was to increase long-term shareholder value through growth, measured in such terms as return on capital, service revenues, cash flow and capital expenditures. Compensation decisions were made considering these performance measures, as well as all other appropriate facts and circumstances, including factors such as customer growth and employee engagement.

Array's compensation policies for executive officers were intended to provide incentives for the achievement of corporate and individual performance goals and to provide compensation consistent with the performance of Array, utilizing good governance practices and other best practices. Array's compensation programs were designed to reward the performance of Array on both a short-term and long-term basis.

Array's policies establish incentive compensation performance goals for NEOs based on factors over which such officers were believed to have substantial control and which were believed to be important to Array's long-term success. Management believed compensation generally should be related to the performance of Array and should be sufficient to enable Array to attract and retain individuals possessing the talents required for long-term successful performance. Nevertheless, although performance driven metrics are key inputs to compensation and awards, the Chair may consider other factors to ensure alignment with Array's goals. Officers did not become entitled to any compensation or awards solely as a result of the achievement of performance levels.

**Maintaining Best Practices Regarding Executive Compensation**

The Chair, the President and CEO and the LTICC maintained policies and procedures for establishing compensation for the Array executives, including the NEOs, and considered many of these to represent best practices in corporate governance.

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| ***What We Did*** |  |
| ☑ **Pay for Performance:** A significant portion of NEO total target compensation was tied to Company performance. | ☑ **Limited Perquisites:** We provided few perquisites ("perks") to our officers. |
| ☑ **Maximum Payouts on Incentives:** Annual cash incentive awards were capped at 184.5% and 2024 PSUs are capped at 175%. | ☑ **Independent Long-Term Incentive Compensation Committee:** The long-term equity-based compensation of executive officers was reviewed and approved by our LTICC comprised solely of independent directors. Other executive compensation was approved by Array's Chair, who is also a director and President and Chief Executive Officer of TDS, the majority shareholder of Array. |
| ☑ **Compensation Consultant:** Willis Towers Watson advised the Company and LTICC on executive compensation matters.  | ☑ **Independent Long-Term Incentive Compensation Committee:** The long-term equity-based compensation of executive officers was reviewed and approved by our LTICC comprised solely of independent directors. Other executive compensation was approved by Array's Chair, who is also a director and President and Chief Executive Officer of TDS, the majority shareholder of Array. |

---

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| ***What We Didn't Do*** | |
| ☒ **No Hedging or Pledging:** Officers are prohibited from hedging, pledging or otherwise encumbering shares of Array's common stock, including holding shares in a margin account. | ☒ **Limited Tax Gross-Ups:** NEOs and other executive officers are not entitled to tax gross-ups except in limited circumstances. |
| ☒ **Repricing of Stock Options:** Repricing of stock options without shareholder approval is prohibited (except in the event of certain corporate events). | |

---

**Clawback Policy** 

Array believes it is prudent to create and maintain a culture that emphasizes integrity and accountability while reinforcing its pay-for-performance compensation philosophy. In 2023, Array adopted a policy to require the return, repayment or forfeiture of any erroneously awarded incentive compensation received by any current or former NEO in the event of certain financial restatements, as required by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform & Consumer Protection Act and corresponding New York Stock Exchange listing standards.

**Results of the 2024 Say-on-Pay Vote**

In 2024, we sought an advisory vote from our shareholders on NEO compensation (commonly referred to as "Say-on-Pay"). The Chair, the President and CEO and the LTICC considered the fact that shareholders overwhelmingly voted at the 2024 annual meeting FOR the Say-on-Pay proposal with respect to 2023 NEO compensation. Even with this strong endorsement of the Company's pay practices, the Chair and President and CEO along with the LTICC believed that it was essential to regularly review the executive compensation program. In 2024, the Chair and the President and CEO along with the LTICC concluded that the compensation program provided awards that they believed motivated our NEOs to maximize long-term shareholder value and encouraged long-term retention. The Chair and the President and CEO and the Board intend to consider the results of the annual Say-on-Pay votes in their future compensation policies and decisions.

**Changes to Compensation Policies**

There were no material changes made to the executive compensation programs in 2024 in response to the 2024 Say-on-Pay Vote.

**Maintaining a Competitive Compensation Program—Benchmarking Compensation Data**

In 2024, for the NEOs other than the President and CEO, Willis Towers Watson completed a job specific market analysis with respect to base salary, target annual and long-term incentive opportunities, target total cash and target total direct compensation. Executive officer positions were compared and matched to survey positions based on current role responsibilities. The source of market data was a Willis Towers Watson database of approximately 1,400 companies.

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#id6580524fce4487cae8d141535d44758_13)</u>

When setting long-term incentive awards, the LTICC considered market compensation data provided by Willis Towers Watson as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The multiples that were approved for the NEOs are presented in "Long-Term Equity Compensation" below.

In 2024 the Chair, President and CEO and LTICC compared the base salaries, target annual cash incentives, target long-term incentives and total target compensation of each of Array's NEOs, other than the President and CEO, to the compensation data provided by Willis Towers Watson. The comparison was made to help determine whether Array's compensation practices fell in line with competitive market data.

Array believed that compensation decisions are complex and require a deliberate review of Array performance, peer compensation levels, experience of individual executives, and individual performance, among other factors. In determining executive compensation, the Chair, President and CEO and LTICC considered all forms of compensation to review the value delivered by each component of compensation to each executive. Accordingly, the Chair, President and CEO and LTICC may have determined that, with respect to any individual, it was appropriate for total target compensation or any particular element of compensation to meet, exceed or fall below the 50th percentile of the market data. The factors that might have influenced the amount of compensation awarded include market competition for a particular position, retention considerations, an individual's performance, possession of a unique skill or knowledge set, proven leadership capabilities or other business experience, tenure with the Company, internal pay equity and other relevant considerations.

**Types and Amounts of NEO Compensation Awarded in 2024** 

**Summary of Executive Compensation Elements**

Array provided both fixed (base salary) and variable (annual cash bonus and equity incentives) compensation to the NEOs in 2024. The majority of compensation was at risk to each NEO because the compensation that was actually paid may vary from the target compensation that was established by the Chair, the President and CEO and/or the LTICC. In the case of annual cash incentives and PSUs, the payment was dependent in significant part upon Array's performance and, in the case of equity incentives, the value also was dependent on future share prices. The amount of total target compensation at risk was significantly more than the amount of base salary for each NEO. Also, the majority of total target compensation awarded in 2024 to each NEO was in the form of equity.

**Compensation Provided to NEOs in 2024** 

**<u>Base Salary</u>**

Annually, the Chair determines the President and CEO's base salary. With respect to the other NEOs in 2024, the President and CEO recommended and the Chair approved each such NEO's base salary. In setting 2024 base salary levels, the Chair and/or President and CEO considered market data, Company performance, individual performance and unique skill or knowledge set of each NEO. In 2024, NEOs received an annual base salary merit increase ranging from 2.0% - 4.0%. The base salary of each NEO was set at a level considered to be appropriate in the subjective judgement of the Chair and/or the President and CEO based on assessment of the responsibilities and performance of such NEO, taking into account Array's status as a public and controlled company, and the fact that Array is primarily a regional competitor and that some of its competitors are national or global telecommunication companies that are much larger, possess greater resources in more extensive coverage areas, and market other services that Array does not offer. No specific performance measures are determinative in the base salary compensation decisions for NEOs. Ultimately, it is the informed judgment of the Chair considering the recommendation of the President and CEO (in the case of the other NEOs) that determines the base salaries based on the total mix of information rather than on any specific measure of performance.

(1)The increase was effective on January 1, 2024.

(2)The increase was effective on March 1, 2024.

**<u>Annual Bonus</u>**

The Chair and the President and CEO believe that annual bonus awards reinforce a pay-for-performance culture because the payment is based, in part, on Array's financial results along with the Chair's assessment of overall company performance to key goals and major initiatives. Annually, the Chair, considering the recommendation of the President and CEO, set the percentage of base earnings used to determine each NEO's target bonus, as well as performance goals for Array.

The Chair and the President and CEO believed that the target bonuses were competitive compared to the market data. The target percentage of base earnings for each NEO's bonus in 2024 was:

**<u>NEO Bonus Targets</u>**

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **Named Executive Officer** | **Percentage of Base Earnings** |
| Laurent C. Therivel | 110% |
| Douglas W. Chambers | 55% |
| Michael S. Irizarry | 65% |
| Kevin R. Lowell | 55% |

---

All of our NEOs participated in the 2024 Array Annual Incentive Plan. Under that plan, the Chair and the President and CEO set minimum, target and maximum annual company performance goals used to determine 70% of each NEO's 2024 annual bonus award. The goals were based on the following metrics: Consolidated Total Service Revenues (50% weighting), Consolidated Operating Cash Flow (40% weighting) and Consolidated Capital Expenditures (10% weighting). The Chair's Assessment of overall Company Performance (10% weighting) and Individual Performance (20% weighting) measures were used to calculate 30% of the final award. The Chair and the President and CEO believed that these metrics focused executives on maximizing profitability and the customer experience. Under the Annual Incentive Plan, the actual annual incentive payouts based on the achievement of performance goals established for the year could range from 0% to 184.5%.

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#id6580524fce4487cae8d141535d44758_13)</u>

The following provides additional detail on the performance measures considered for the purposes of the 2024 Array Annual Incentive Plan.

| Individual Performance |  | 20% | 160.0% |
| Total Overall Plan Weighting and Maximum Target Opportunity |  | 100% | 184.5% |

---

The performance goals, at the minimum, target and maximum payout levels, were intended to be challenging and the performance goals at the maximum payout level were intended to require superior performance.

The Chair, considering the recommendation of the President and CEO with respect to the NEOs other than himself, determined the actual payout that each NEO received under the incentive plan.

**Company Performance**

For purposes of evaluating and determining bonus levels each year, Array calculated an overall percentage of performance based on measures set forth in its Annual Incentive Plan.

The below table shows the calculation of the overall quantitative company performance percentage for 2024 based on the 2024 Array Annual Incentive Plan. The below amounts are based on the performance metrics established specifically for bonus purposes and may not agree with Array's financial statements, which are based on accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"), or with other publicly disclosed measures. As compared to GAAP, the below bonus results and targets may be adjusted for amounts relating to items such as acquisitions and divestitures and other non-operating or non-core items. The below bonus results and targets are intended to reflect the core operating results over which Array officers have significant influence. The 2024 target for Service Revenues was lower than actual Service Revenues for 2023 due primarily to an anticipated decline in Retail Service revenues due to a decline in subscribers.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1)This represents total service revenues determined on a consolidated company-wide basis and in a manner consistent with Array's presentation of total service revenues for external reporting purposes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2)This represents operating cash flow determined on a consolidated company-wide basis and in a manner consistent with Array's presentation of adjusted OIBDA (Operating income before depreciation, amortization, accretion, gains and losses) for external reporting purposes, and further adjusted to remove expenses associated with the annual incentive and performance share unit plans.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3)This represents capital expenditures determined on a consolidated company-wide basis and in a manner consistent with Array's presentation of capital expenditures for external reporting purposes.

If a metric did not meet the minimum threshold performance level, generally no bonus would be paid with respect to such metric. If maximum performance or greater is achieved, 200% (or 150% with respect to the Consolidated Capital Expenditures metric) of the target opportunity for that metric will be funded. As shown above, actual performance exceeded the minimum threshold but was below maximum performance. As a result, the payout level was interpolated for such measure based on the actual result relative to the respective minimum threshold performance percentage and maximum performance percentage

As shown above, the quantitative company performance percentage for Array for 2024 was determined to be 113%.

**Chair Assessment**

The assessment of overall company goals and major initiatives as determined in the subjective judgment of the Chair was 126.0%. In arriving at this determination, the Chair considered the following accomplishments of Array during 2024:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Success in strategic alternatives execution by reaching an agreement with T-Mobile for the sale of the wireless operations and a portion of the spectrum portfolio, along with a tower lease agreement on a significant portion of owned towers. Additionally, signed an agreement for the sale of a portion of the spectrum portfolio to Verizon, AT&T and other purchasers;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Execution on cost saving opportunities through enterprise cost optimization program, exceeding the savings target and resulting in higher Adjusted operating income excluding depreciation and amortization (Adjusted OIBDA) and lower capital expenditures compared to target;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Significant effort to stabilize the postpaid handset subscriber base;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Continued Mid-Band rollout, exceeding budget for number of sites upgraded;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Continued enhancement on the digital platform to produce a digital experience score higher than budget, which increased traffic and improved the customer experience; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Continued advocacy for government funding.

**Individual Performance Objectives and Accomplishments**

In addition to Array performance, the Chair, the President and CEO and members of the LTICC considered individual objectives and performance in determining executive compensation. There was no minimum level of achievement of any of those objectives before salary or other compensation could be increased or provided. The assessment of the achievement of such objectives was not formulaic, objective or quantifiable. Instead, individual performance considerations were factors, among others, that were generally taken into account in the course of making subjective judgments in connection with compensation decisions.

Mr. Therivel was the principal executive officer of Array and was primarily responsible for the performance of Array. Each of the other executive officers was also considered to have made a significant contribution to the aforementioned performance achievements during the period. The portion of the bonus for individual performance was based on an individual performance assessment approved by the Chair in his subjective judgment which, in the case of NEOs other than the President and CEO, considered the recommendation of the President and CEO. This individual performance assessment for 2024 was used as a factor in determining the amount of the cash bonus for 2024 performance paid in 2025 and the value of equity awards granted in 2025.

The Chair and the President and CEO reviewed the base salary and bonus of the NEOs on an aggregate basis. The amount reported above as Base Salary represents the NEO's rate of annual base salary for the period reported rather than the amount reported in the Summary Compensation Table, which reflects actual base salary paid during the period.

The total cash compensation of the above officers was believed to be within the appropriate range identified for this element based on an assessment of the responsibilities and performance of such officers and other relevant factors in the judgment of the Chair and the President and CEO.

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#id6580524fce4487cae8d141535d44758_13)</u>

**Long-Term Equity Compensation**

Long-term equity compensation was intended to compensate executives primarily for their contributions to long-term increases in shareholder value. The Chair and the President and CEO, along with the LTICC, believed that equity awards both align management's interests with those of shareholders and reinforce a pay-for-performance culture.

Long-term compensation awards for NEOs are based, in part, on individual performance, with the intended goal of increasing long-term company performance and shareholder value. Performance share units (PSUs), restricted stock units (RSUs) and bonus match units generally vest over three years, to reflect the goal of relating long-term incentive compensation to increases in shareholder value over the same period.

The annual long-term compensation awards in 2024 were made under Array's 2022 Long-Term Incentive Plan ("2022 LTIP"). The target long-term incentive award value of each NEO's 2024 equity-based awards was comprised equally of PSUs (with the PSUs valued assuming achievement at the target performance level) and RSUs. These awards to the NEOs were granted on March 4, 2024.

**2024 Target Long-Term Incentive Award**

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **Named Executive Officer** | **Target Value of 2024 Equity Award** |
| Laurent C. Therivel | $4950036 |
| Douglas W. Chambers | $1491624 |
| Michael S. Irizarry | $2010240 |
| Kevin R. Lowell | $1266840 |

---

Under the 2022 LTIP, Array is authorized to grant stock options, stock appreciation rights, bonus stock awards, restricted stock awards, restricted stock unit awards, performance awards and other stock awards (including employer match awards for deferred bonus).

Mr. Therivel and the Company entered into a letter agreement on June 1, 2020, as amended by an addendum dated May 17, 2023 (the "Therivel Letter Agreement"), relating to his appointment as President and CEO. The Therivel Letter Agreement provided that each calendar year during Mr. Therivel's employment, it was anticipated that Mr. Therivel would receive annual equity grants with a target grant date value not less than $4,000,000. Mr. Therivel's 2024 grants had a target grant date value equal to approximately $4,950,000.

Based in part considering information from Willis Towers Watson, the formula for determining the number of units awarded to the NEOs other than the President and CEO was the NEO's base salary on December 31, 2023 times the NEO's performance multiple for 2024, divided by the Company's closing share price on March 1, 2024 (i.e., the last trading day preceding the March 4, 2024 grant date). The product of this formula was then split 50% in PSUs and 50% in RSUs. This result was rounded. The approach for determining long-term incentive award value granted to the President and CEO was based on a comparison to competitive market information provided by Willis Towers Watson.

*<u>Performance Share Units</u>:* In 2024, one-half of the total target long-term incentive award value granted to the NEOs was made in the form of PSUs. The PSUs could be settled in shares of Array's common stock or in cash equal to the fair market value of the shares of Common Stock that have vested, based on Company achievement during the performance period from January 1, 2024 through December 31, 2024, against a Return on Capital goal (weighted 50%) and a Simple Free Cash Flow goal (weighted 50%). The Return on Capital goal had a possible payout ranging from 0% - 150% of the target award based on performance and the Simple Free Cash Flow goal had a possible payout ranging from 0% - 200% of the target award based on performance. Simple Free Cash Flow measures performance on capital expenditures relative to budget and was added as a performance metric for the 2024 PSUs because it was included as an explicit target in the development of the 2024 budget. On February 19, 2025, the performance was reviewed against the set metrics and the final determination of performance was certified by the LTICC. The certified Return on Capital performance attainment for 2024 was 2.10% against a target of 2.80%, resulting in a weighted payout performance attainment of 32.5% and the certified Simple Free Cash Flow performance attainment for 2024 was $342.1 million against a target of $246.8 million, resulting in a weighted payout performance attainment of 88.6%. The combined weighted payout performance attainment for both metrics resulted in a total weighted payout equal to 121.1% of target, which was further increased by an additional discretionary increase of 24.8%, for a total payout performance attainment of 145.9%. The discretionary increase represents the net impact of two adjustments: 1) excluding a license impairment charge recorded in 2024 (this adjustment increased attainment) and 2) adjustment for the reduced mid-band deployment versus plan in 2024 (this adjustment decreased attainment). The 2024 PSUs were originally scheduled, to the extent earned, to be paid following the March 4, 2027 vesting date, assuming the NEO remained employed with Array until that date. Please see Impact of Strategic Transactions and 2025 Management Transitions below for a description of the treatment of the PSUs in connection with the Closing and the separations of the NEOs other than Mr. Chambers.

*<u>Restricted Stock Units</u>:* One-half of the total target long-term incentive award value was granted to the NEOs on March 4, 2024 in the form of RSUs. The RSUs were originally scheduled to vest one-third annually on each anniversary of the grant date, assuming the NEO remained employed through the vesting dates. Please see Impact of Strategic Transactions and 2025 Management Transitions below for a description of the treatment of the RSUs in connection with the Closing and the separations of the NEOs other than Mr. Chambers.

The target values in the tables below were calculated by Array using the formulas described above considering information provided by Willis Towers Watson.

As a result of the foregoing formulas and individual performance factors, the following performance share units and restricted stock units were granted on March 4, 2024 to the NEOs (the amounts may be rounded).

(1)Mr. Therivel's long-term incentive target value was determined considering an assessment of the competitive market at the 60th and 75th percentile ($4,570,000 - $5,325,000, respectively) as provided by Willis Towers Watson.

**Performance on 2022 Performance Share Units**

Our NEOs received performance share units in 2022 (the "2022 PSUs") relating to the performance period from January 1, 2022 through December 31, 2024. The performance measure for the 2022 PSUs was Return on Capital (weighted 100%) over the three-year performance period. As previously disclosed, during 2023, the LTICC adopted a resolution specifying that all award holders (including each of the NEOs) would receive, at the time of settlement of the 2022 PSUs, the greater of (i) the actual payout under the 2022 PSUs as originally awarded and (ii) a discretionary amount to be determined by the LTICC, on the basis of quantitative and qualitative factors, with vesting not lower than 75% and not higher than 100% of the target award (subject to continued employment through the time-based vesting date). The LTICC adopted this resolution in order to preserve the retentive effect of the 2022 PSUs for our NEOs as well as other award recipients. The LTICC also believed it was appropriate that the accounting charges associated with the modification of the awards would be recorded, to the extent possible, over the remaining performance period.

At the conclusion of the performance period for the 2022 PSUs the LTICC determined that the actual payout under those awards under the modified terms would have been 75%. In accordance with the modified terms, the LTICC determined to exercise its discretion to pay the awards out at 91%. In determining the vesting level, the LTICC considered quantitative and qualitative factors, including the Company's performance with respect to the financial metrics under the Annual Incentive Plan during the three-year performance period and the Chair's assessment of overall Company performance with respect to key goals and major initiatives during such period. The table below sets forth the certified attainment with respect to the aggregate PSUs granted to Messrs. Therivel, Chambers, Irizarry and Lowell during 2022.

(1)The Company incurred a $1.4 million modification expense in 2025 related to the adjustment for Messrs. Therivel, Chambers, Irizarry and Lowell's 2022 PSUs that resulted from the LTICC's 16% discretionary increase to the final payout (from the 75% minimum approved in 2023), which will be reflected as additional compensation in the 2025 Summary Compensation Table.

**Performance on 2024 Performance Share Units**

The performance period for the 2024 performance share units ended on December 31, 2024 and performance attainment was certified by the LTICC on February 19, 2025. The certified attainment was 145.9%. The table below sets forth the certified attainment with respect to the two performance measures for the 2024 performance share units granted to Messrs. Therivel, Chambers, Irizarry and Lowell.

---

(1) Return on Capital and Simple Free Cash Flow performance measures are weighted at 50% each.

(2) Includes a discretionary increase of 24.8 percentage points related to excluding a license impairment charge and reducing mid-band deployment versus plan in 2024. The Company incurred a $2.2 million modification expense in 2025 related to this adjustment for Messrs. Therivel, Chambers, Irizarry and Lowell's 2024 PSUs which will be reflected as additional compensation in the 2025 Summary Compensation Table.

The following summarizes the adjustment on February 19, 2025, based on performance attainment, of the performance share unit awards granted during 2024 to the following NEOs:

**Impact of Strategic Transactions and 2025 Management Transitions** 

As previously disclosed, in 2024, the Company entered into agreements for strategic transactions with each of T-Mobile US, Inc., Verizon Communications, Inc., New Cingular Wireless PCS, LLC (a subsidiary of AT&T Inc.), Nsight Spectrum, LLC and Nex-Tech Wireless, LLC. The transaction with T-Mobile closed on August 1, 2025 and constituted a change in control for purposes of the Therivel Letter Agreement and a "LTIP Change in Control" or "Qualifying Transaction" (each as defined below) for purposes of the 2013 LTIP and 2022 LTIP.

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#id6580524fce4487cae8d141535d44758_13)</u>

Effective upon the Closing, the employment of each of Messrs. Therivel, Irizarry and Lowell was terminated without cause. In connection with his separation and subject to his execution and non-revocation of a release of claims, Mr. Therivel was entitled to receive (i) in accordance with the terms of the Therivel Letter Agreement, a lump sum severance amount equal to his then current annual base salary; (ii) a prorated annual bonus for 2025 based on actual performance; (iii) the cost of COBRA continuation coverage for one year; and (iv) outplacement services for one year. In connection with the Closing and in accordance with the Therivel Letter Agreement, the Chair recommended, and the Board approved, the accelerated vesting of one-third of the performance-based equity award granted to Mr. Therivel in connection with the commencement of his employment (the "Accomplishment Award") and the full accelerated vesting of Mr. Therivel's remaining unvested equity awards, effective immediately prior to the Closing. The remaining two-thirds of the Accomplishment Award was forfeited. In addition, Mr. Therivel's company car was transferred to him in connection with the Closing. Pursuant to the Therivel Letter Agreement, Mr. Therivel is subject to one year post-termination non-competition and non-solicitation of employees and customers restrictive covenants. Mr. Therivel's breach of any of the restrictive covenants would entitle the Company to injunctive relief and the payment of any reasonable attorneys' fees, in addition to any other remedies to which the Company may be entitled.

In connection with their terminations of employment, and pursuant to the terms of the Company's executive severance policy and subject to their execution and non-revocation of a release of claims, Messrs. Irizarry and Lowell were paid a lump sum cash payment equal to the sum of (i) their then-current annual base salary, (ii) a prorated annual bonus for 2025 based on actual performance, and (iii) the cost of COBRA continuation coverage for one year. In addition, in accordance with the terms of the 2013 LTIP and the 2022 LTIP and the applicable award agreements, Messrs. Irizarry and Lowell's outstanding equity awards fully vested upon their terminations of employment, based on target performance with respect to performance-based awards for which performance previously had not been certified (and with awards granted in 2024 and 2025 being settled in cash). In addition, in accordance with the terms of the Company's supplemental executive retirement plan, or SERP, the Company made a contribution to the SERP on behalf of each of Messrs. Irizarry and Lowell in connection with their separations, which contributions represent the Company contributions that would have been made to the TDS Pension Plan (as defined below) on behalf of such NEOs but for certain limitations under the Internal Revenue Code and the TDS Pension Plan. In addition, Messrs. Irizarry and Lowell's company cars were transferred to them in connection with the Closing. In accordance with the terms of the TDS Pension Plan, in connection with their separations, a Company contribution to the TDS Pension Plan was made on behalf of Messrs. Irizarry and Lowell for the 2025 plan year, in an amount equal to the sum of (A) 3% of their compensation up to the Social Security wage base, plus (B) 6% of their compensation in excess of the Social Security wage base up to the compensation limit applicable to the TDS Pension Plan under tax laws. Messrs. Irizarry and Lowell are each subject to one year post-termination non-solicitation of employees and customers restrictive covenants.

In connection with his appointment as President and Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Chambers and Array entered into an Equity Acceleration Agreement (the "Equity Acceleration Agreement"), pursuant to which Mr. Chambers' outstanding equity awards vested in full immediately following the Closing, based on target performance with respect to Mr. Chambers' performance-based awards granted in 2025. If Mr. Chambers voluntarily resigns his employment with Array and its affiliates other than for "Good Reason" (as defined in the United States Cellular Corporation Long-Term Incentive Plan) prior to January 1, 2026 (or such earlier date specified by Array as Mr. Chambers' termination date) (the "Retention Date"), or if he fails to satisfactorily meet performance expectations through the Retention Date, then Mr. Chambers will be required to pay to Array a cash amount equal to the fair market value of the shares that were subject to the portions of his equity awards that vested pursuant to the Equity Acceleration Agreement. Mr. Chambers' company car was transferred to him in connection with the Closing.

Please see "Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control" below for additional information regarding the payments and benefits to which the NEOs would have been entitled as of December 31, 2024 in connection with a change in control or terminations of their employment.

**Other Benefit Plans Available to NEOs**

The Chair believed that Array's maintenance of the below-described plans was consistent with competitive pay practices and was an important element in attracting and retaining talent in a competitive market.

The NEOs participated in certain benefit plans in 2024, as described below.

*<u>Deferred Salary and Bonus</u>:*

The NEOs were permitted to defer salary and/or bonus into an interest-bearing arrangement under a deferred compensation plan. Pursuant to the plan, the NEO's deferred compensation account was credited with interest compounded monthly, computed at a rate equal to one-twelfth of the sum of the average twenty-year Treasury Bond rate plus 1.25 percentage points until the deferred compensation amount is paid to such person. The portion of any interest that exceeds 120% of the applicable federal long-term rate ("AFR") is considered above market in accordance with SEC rules. The deferred compensation account of a NEO is paid at the time and in the form provided in the plan, which permits certain distribution elections by the officer.

The NEO is always 100% vested in, and entitled to receipt upon termination, all salary and bonus amounts that have been deferred and any interest credited to his or her account. Such amounts are reported in the Nonqualified Deferred Compensation table and, because there would not be any increased benefit or accelerated vesting in the event of termination or change in control, are not included in the below Table of Potential Payments upon Termination or Change in Control.

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#id6580524fce4487cae8d141535d44758_13)</u>

*<u>Deferred Bonus under the Long-Term Incentive Plan</u>*:

In addition to being permitted to defer their bonuses into an interest-bearing arrangement as described immediately above, each officer could elect to defer a portion of his or her annual bonus pursuant to the LTIP, and Array would allocate a related stock unit match award to the employee's deferred compensation account. For the bonus earned in 2024, the match equaled 33 1/3 % of the deferred bonus amount for the year. The stock unit match awards would be deemed invested in Array Common Share Units and would vest ratably at a rate of one-third per year over three years. The match becomes fully vested upon the executive's separation due to retirement, disability or death. The NEOs receive a distribution of the deferred bonus account at the time and in the form provided in the plan, which permits certain distribution elections by the NEO. The portion of the bonus deferred by an NEO is reflected in the "Executive Contributions in Last FY" column of the Nonqualified Deferred Compensation table, and the Company matching contribution is reflected in the "Registrant Contributions in Last FY" column of the Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Table.

**SERP** 

Each of the NEOs participated in a supplemental executive retirement plan, or SERP, which is a non-qualified defined contribution plan. The SERP is not intended to provide substantial benefits other than to replace the benefits which cannot be provided under the TDS Pension Plan as a result of tax law limitations on the amount and types of annual employee compensation which can be taken into account under a tax qualified pension plan or other limitations. The SERP is unfunded. Participants are credited with interest on balances of the SERP. For 2024, the deferred balance was credited with an assumed rate of earnings on all amounts other than the contributions for that year equal to the yield on ten-year BBB rated industrial bonds for the last trading date of the prior year as quoted by Standard & Poor's. The interest rate under the SERP for 2024 was set as of the last trading date of 2023 at 5.2243% per annum, based on the yield on ten-year BBB rated industrial bonds at such time.

A participant is entitled to distribution of his or her entire account balance under the SERP if the participant has a separation from service without cause, after either (a) his or her attainment of age 65; or (b) his or her completion of at least ten years of service. If a participant has a separation from service under circumstances other than those set forth in the preceding sentence, without cause, the participant will be entitled to distribution of 10% of his or her account balance for each year of service up to ten years. Upon a separation from service under circumstances that permit payments under the SERP, the participant will be paid his or her vested account balance in one of the following forms as elected by the participant prior to the first day of the plan year in which the participant commences participation in the SERP: (a) a single lump sum or (b) annual installments over a period of 5, 10, 15, 20, or 25 years. The SERP does not include any provision that would increase benefits or accelerate amounts upon any termination or change in control and, accordingly, no amount attributable to the SERP is included in the Table of Potential Payments upon Termination or Change in Control. Each NEO's SERP balance as of December 31, 2024 is set forth in the "Nonqualified Deferred Compensation" table below.

**Perquisites**

Array generally did not provide significant perquisites to its NEOs. Array had no formal plan, policy or procedure pursuant to which NEOs are entitled to any perquisites following termination or change in control. However, from time to time, Array may enter into employment, retirement, severance or similar agreements that may provide for perquisites.

**Tax-Deferred Savings Plan - 401(k) plan**

TDS sponsors the Tax-Deferred Savings Plan ("TDSP"), a tax-qualified defined contribution plan. This plan is available to employees of TDS and its subsidiaries which have adopted the plan, including Array. Employees contribute amounts from their compensation and Array makes matching contributions in part. Array makes matching contributions to the plan in cash equal to 100% of an employee's contributions up to the first 3% of such employee's compensation, and 40% of an employee's contributions up to the next 2% of such employee's compensation. Matching contributions under the Tax-Deferred Savings Plan are subject to a two-year graduated vesting schedule (34% vesting at one year of service and 100% vesting at two years of service). Employees have the option of investing their contributions and Array's contributions in a TDS Common Share fund, a Array Common Share fund and certain unaffiliated funds. Contributions into the company common stock funds are limited to no more than 20%, combined.

This plan does not discriminate in scope, terms, or operation in favor of executive officers and is available generally to all employees, and benefits are not enhanced upon any termination (other than a termination by reason of death, total and permanent disability or after an employee attains age 65) or change in control. Accordingly, no amounts are reported in the Table of Potential Payments upon Termination or Change in Control.

**Pension Plan**

TDS sponsors a tax-qualified defined contribution pension plan for the eligible employees of TDS and its participating subsidiaries, including Array (TDS Pension Plan). Under this plan, pension costs are calculated separately for each participant based on the applicable pension formula and are funded annually by TDS and its participating subsidiaries. Employees do not make contributions to the TDS Pension Plan.

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#id6580524fce4487cae8d141535d44758_13)</u>

Benefits under the TDS Pension Plan are subject to a five year graduated vesting schedule (20% vesting at two years of service, 40% vesting at three years of service, 60% vesting at four years of service and 100% vesting at five years of service).

This plan does not discriminate in scope, terms, or operation in favor of executive officers and is available generally to all Array employees, and benefits are not enhanced upon any termination (other than a termination by reason of death, total and permanent disability or a qualified retirement) or change in control. Accordingly, no amounts are reported in the Table of Potential Payments upon Termination or Change in Control.

**Health and Welfare Benefits**

TDS also provides customary health and welfare and similar plans for the benefit of employees of TDS and its subsidiaries, including Array. These group life, health, disability, medical reimbursement and/or similar plans do not discriminate in scope, terms or operation in favor of executive officers and are available generally to all employees, and benefits are not enhanced upon any termination or change in control. Accordingly, no amounts are reported in the below Table of Potential Payments upon Termination or Change in Control.

**Impact of Accounting and Tax Treatments of Particular Forms of Compensation**

The Chair and the LTICC considered the accounting and tax treatments of particular forms of compensation. Accounting and tax treatments have not significantly impacted the determinations of the appropriate compensation for Array executive officers. The Chair and the LTICC considered the accounting and tax treatments primarily to be informed and to confirm that Array personnel understand and recognize the appropriate accounting and tax treatment that will be required with respect to compensation.

Array agreed to "gross-up" payments to executive officers due to taxes or to otherwise reimburse officers for the payment of taxes only in limited circumstances.

**Policy on Stock Ownership by Executive Officers**

Array did not have a formal policy relating to stock ownership by executive officers.

**Prohibition of Derivative Trading, Hedging and Pledging of Shares and Insider Trading**

TDS' Policy Regarding Insider Trading and Confidentiality, which was applicable to Array's Board of Directors, officers and certain employees identified by Array's Chief Financial Officer, provided that persons subject to the earnings blackout policy may not, under any circumstances, trade options for, pledge, or sell "short," any securities of TDS or Array. The policy also governs the purchase, sale, and other dispositions of Array's securities by directors, officers, and employees of Array that is reasonably designed to promote compliance with insider trading laws, rules and regulations, and any applicable listing standards. It is also our policy that the company will not trade in company securities in violation of insider trading laws, rules and regulations, and any applicable listing standards. A copy of the policy is filed as Exhibit 19 to Array's Form 10-K for the year ended 2024.

**Summary of Compensation**

The following table summarizes the compensation paid by Array to the NEOs for 2024, 2023, and 2022.

**Explanation of Columns:**

(a) - (c)The amounts shown under these columns reflect the number of Array Common Shares that may be earned by each Array officer as a result of the performance share units granted to such officer under the award. The actual number of Array Common Shares to be delivered to the NEOs as a result of these performance share units was determined by the performance of Array during the one-year performance period running January 1, 2024 through December 31, 2024, as measured against two performance criteria selected by the LTICC. To the extent earned, the 2024 performance share units were originally scheduled to vest on March 4, 2027, subject to the NEO's continuous employment through such date. Please see "Impact of Strategic Transactions and 2025 Management Transitions" above for a description of the treatment of the performance share units held by the NEOs in connection with the Closing and/or their separations from the Company in 2025.

**Footnotes:**

(1)As described above, (i) one-third of Mr. Therivel's Accomplishment Award and all of his remaining unvested equity awards vested immediately prior to the Closing, (ii) Mr. Chambers' outstanding equity awards vested in full upon the Closing pursuant to his Equity Acceleration Agreement, and (ii) the outstanding equity awards held by Messrs. Irizarry and Lowell vested in full upon the termination of their employment on August 1, 2025, based on target performance with respect to the 2025 performance-based awards, for which performance previously had not been certified.

(2)The 2022 restricted stock units will vest on the third anniversary of the grant date. The 2023 and 2024 restricted stock units will vest one-third each year on the anniversary of the grant date.

The performance periods for the 2022, 2023 and 2024 performance share units have concluded, and these awards were scheduled to vest on April 4, 2025, April 3, 2026 and March 4, 2027, respectively. The number of shares included in the above table is the final approved award after adjustment for performance attainment for the 2022, 2023 and 2024 performance share units.

(3)The restricted stock units granted to Mr. Therivel in connection with his employment commencement were originally scheduled to vest on July 1, 2026.

(4)Represents the number of Array Common Shares underlying the unvested portion of deferred compensation stock match units awarded to such NEO with respect to deferred bonus compensation. Generally, one-third of the deferred compensation stock match units become vested on each of the first three anniversaries of the last day of the year for which the applicable bonus is payable, provided that such officer is an employee of Array or an affiliate on such date. Accordingly, share units were originally scheduled to vest on each of December 31, 2025 (1,147) and December 31, 2026 (465). Upon separation from the Company, any company match is fully vested for employees who are retirement eligible under the Phantom Deferred Compensation Plan. As of December 31, 2024, Mr. Therivel was not retirement eligible under the terms of the Phantom Deferred Compensation Plan but pursuant to the terms of the Therivel Letter Agreement, Array took action to fully vest Mr. Therivel's company match under the Phantom Deferred Compensation Plan effective immediately prior to the Closing.

(5)These performance share units represent the Accomplishment Award granted to Laurent C. Therivel on July 1, 2020 in connection with his employment commencement. The award had a variable vesting period which could range from 2.5 to 6.5 years dependent on attainment of performance conditions. As described above in "Impact of Strategic Transactions and 2025 Management Transitions" one-third of the Accomplishment Award vested immediately prior to the Closing, and the remainder was forfeited.

**Footnotes:**

(1)Pursuant to the Array LTIP and its Phantom Stock Program, the company match deferred compensation stock units relating to deferred bonus generally vest one-third on each of the first three anniversaries of the last day of the year for which the applicable bonus is payable, provided the award recipient is an employee of Array on such date. The stock price used to calculate the value realized on vesting was the closing price of Array Common Shares of $62.72 on December 31, 2024, the last trading day of 2024.

Upon separation from the Company, the company match is non-forfeitable for employees who are retirement eligible under the Phantom Stock Program. Mr. Therivel did not qualify as retirement eligible under the Phantom Stock Program at the time of his separation, but pursuant to the terms of the Therivel Letter Agreement, Array took action to fully vest all Bonus Match Units held by Mr. Therivel effective immediately prior to the Closing.

**Change in Control**

The following summarizes the change in control provisions of the 2013 LTIP and 2022 LTIP:

Generally, a "change in control" is defined in the 2013 LTIP and 2022 LTIP ("LTIP Change in Control") as: (i) an acquisition by a person or entity of the then outstanding securities of Array (the "Outstanding Voting Securities") having sufficient voting power of all classes of capital stock of Array to elect at least 50% or more of the members of the Board of Directors or having 50% or more of the combined voting power of the Outstanding Voting Securities entitled to vote generally on matters (without regard to the election of directors), subject to certain exceptions; (ii) unapproved changes in the majority of the members of the Board of Directors; (iii) certain corporate restructurings, including certain reorganizations, mergers, consolidations or sales or other dispositions of all or substantially all of the assets of Array; (iv) approval by the shareholders of Array of a plan of complete liquidation or dissolution of Array; or (v) a sale or other disposition of at least 50% of the assets of Array in a transaction that significantly alters the scope or nature of the Company's remaining business, taken as a whole (as determined by the LTICC in its sole discretion).

In the event of a LTIP Change in Control, the Board of Directors (as constituted prior to the LTIP Change in Control) may in its discretion, but will not be required to, make such adjustments to outstanding awards under the 2013 LTIP or 2022 LTIP as it deems appropriate, including without limitation, (i) accelerating the vesting or exercisability of some or all outstanding awards, and/or to the extent legally permissible, causing any applicable restriction or performance period to lapse in full or part; (ii) causing any applicable performance measures to be deemed satisfied at the target, maximum or any other level determined by the Board of Directors (as constituted prior to the LTIP Change in Control); (iii) requiring that the shares of stock into which Common Shares are converted pursuant to the LTIP Change in Control be substituted for some or all of the Common Shares subject to outstanding awards, with an appropriate adjustment as determined by the LTICC (or, with respect to awards granted under the 2022 LTIP, the Board of Directors as constituted prior to the LTIP Change in Control); and/or (iv) requiring outstanding awards, in whole or part, to be surrendered to Array in exchange for a payment of cash, shares of capital stock of the company resulting from or succeeding to the business of Array in connection with the LTIP Change in Control, or the parent thereof, or a combination of cash and shares.

In addition, outstanding awards will become fully vested (based on the greater of target and actual performance through the date of such LTIP Change in Control for performance-based awards subject to in-progress performance periods and actual performance for performance-based awards subject to completed performance periods) if they are not continued, substituted or assumed in connection with an LTIP Change in Control or certain strategic scenarios involving the consummation of a sale or other disposition of assets of Array, whether by reorganization, merger, sale, transfer or otherwise, or series of related sales or dispositions that (i) comprises less than all or substantially all of the assets of Array but significantly alters the scope or nature of Array's remaining business, taken as a whole, and (ii) with respect to any employee, (x) results in the sale or other disposition of the portion of Arrays's business to which such employee devotes more than 50% of such employee's working time as of immediately prior to the transaction and (y) otherwise materially directly and adversely impacts such employee's duties (a "Qualifying Transaction"). Also, if the award is continued or assumed but the award holder's employment is terminated within two years of the LTIP Change in Control or Qualifying Transaction by the Company, the acquiring company, or any of their respective affiliates without cause or by the award holder for good reason, then (i) the award holder's outstanding awards that are subject solely to service-based vesting or are performance awards eligible for deemed achievement of the applicable performance measures will become fully vested upon such holder's termination of employment and will be settled within sixty days following such termination; (ii) the award holder's outstanding awards that are performance awards for which the applicable performance measures have not been achieved (or are not eligible for deemed achievement) will be deemed satisfied at target performance achievement upon such holder's termination of employment and will be settled within sixty days following such termination; and (iii) service-based vesting conditions applicable to outstanding performance awards for which the applicable performance measures have not been achieved (or are not eligible for deemed achievement) will be deemed satisfied upon the holder's termination of employment and such performance awards will otherwise remain subject to the terms of the applicable award agreement solely to the extent actual performance achievement exceeds target performance achievement. The consummation of the previously-announced strategic transaction with T-Mobile on August 1, 2025 constituted a LTIP Change in Control or Qualifying Transaction for purposes of the 2013 LTIP and 2022 LTIP.

The provisions of the 2013 LTIP and 2022 LTIP addressing the treatment of awards upon a LTIP Change in Control did not apply to Laurent C. Therivel's Accomplishment Award, as defined above, and the provisions addressing the treatment of awards upon a Qualifying Transaction applied to one-third (1/3) of his Accomplishment Award. The actual treatment of the Accomplishment Award in connection with the Closing is described above under "Impact of Strategic Transactions and 2025 Management Transitions".

**Executive Severance Policy**

The Company maintains a cash severance policy applicable to its executive officers (the "Executive Severance Policy") that makes them eligible to receive severance pay in the event that their employment is terminated as a result of an "involuntary separation without cause." In that event, subject to their execution and non-revocation of a release of claims in favor of the Company, TDS and its affiliates, they will be entitled to receive severance pay in a lump sum cash payment equal to one year of base pay at the time of separation. The Executive Severance Policy also provides the Company with the discretion to provide the executive officers with additional benefits (e.g., prorated annual bonuses, COBRA premiums). The NEOs other than Mr. Therivel were eligible for severance under the Executive Severance Policy in 2024.

**2025 Management Transitions**

As described above, effective upon the Closing, the employment of each of Messrs. Therivel, Irizarry and Lowell was terminated without cause. In connection with his separation and subject to his execution and non-revocation of a release of claims, Mr. Therivel was entitled to receive (i) in accordance with the terms of the Therivel Letter Agreement, a lump sum severance amount equal to his then current annual base salary; (ii) a prorated annual bonus for 2025 based on actual performance; (iii) the cost of COBRA continuation coverage for one year; and (iv) outplacement services for one year. In connection with the Closing and in accordance with the Therivel Letter Agreement, the Chair recommended, and the Board of Directors approved, the accelerated vesting of one-third of his Accomplishment Award and the full accelerated vesting of Mr. Therivel's remaining unvested equity awards, effective immediately prior to the Closing. The remaining two-thirds of the Accomplishment Award was forfeited. Pursuant to the Therivel Letter Agreement, Mr. Therivel is subject to one year post-termination non-competition and non-solicitation of employees and customers restrictive covenants. Mr. Therivel's breach of any of the restrictive covenants would entitle the Company to injunctive relief and the payment of any reasonable attorneys' fees, in addition to any other remedies to which the Company may be entitled.

In connection with their terminations of employment, and pursuant to the terms of the Company's executive severance policy and subject to their execution and non-revocation of a release of claims, Messrs. Irizarry and Lowell were paid a lump sum cash payment equal to the sum of (i) their then-current annual base salary, (ii) a prorated annual bonus for 2025 based on actual performance, and (iii) the cost of COBRA continuation coverage for one year. In addition, in accordance with the terms of the 2013 LTIP and the 2022 LTIP and the applicable award agreements, Messrs. Irizarry and Lowell's outstanding equity awards fully vested upon their terminations of employment, based on target performance with respect to performance-based awards for which performance previously had not been certified. In addition, in accordance with the terms of the Company's supplemental executive retirement plan, or SERP, the Company made a contribution to the SERP on behalf of each of Messrs. Irizarry and Lowell in connection with their separations, which contributions represent the Company contributions that would have been made to the TDS Pension Plan on behalf of such NEOs but for certain limitations under the Internal Revenue Code and the TDS Pension Plan. In addition, Messrs. Irizarry and Lowell's company cars were transferred to them in connection with the Closing. In accordance with the terms of the TDS Pension Plan, in connection with their separations, a Company contribution to the TDS Pension Plan was made on behalf of Messrs. Irizarry and Lowell for the 2025 plan year, in an amount equal to the sum of (A) 3% of their compensation up to the Social Security wage base, plus (B) 6% of their compensation in excess of the Social Security wage base up to the compensation limit applicable to the TDS Pension Plan under tax laws. Messrs. Irizarry and Lowell are each subject to one year post-termination non-solicitation of employees and customers restrictive covenants.

In connection with his appointment as President and Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Chambers and Array entered into the Equity Acceleration Agreement, pursuant to which Mr. Chambers' outstanding equity awards vested in full immediately following the Closing, based on target performance with respect to Mr. Chambers' performance-based awards granted in 2025. If Mr. Chambers voluntarily resigns his employment with Array and its affiliates other than for Good Reason prior to the Retention Date, or if he fails to satisfactorily meet performance expectations through the Retention Date, then Mr. Chambers will be required to pay to Array a cash amount equal to the fair market value of the shares that were subject to the portions of his equity awards that vested pursuant to the Equity Acceleration Agreement.

**Table of Potential Payments upon Termination or Change in Control**

The following table summarizes the estimated payments to be made under each contract, agreement, plan or arrangement which provides for payments to a NEO at, following, or in connection with any termination of employment including by resignation, severance, retirement, disability or a constructive termination of a NEO, or a change in control or a change in the NEO's responsibilities. Also, the following table does not repeat information disclosed above under the Nonqualified Deferred Compensation table or Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year-End table, except to the extent that the amount payable to the NEO would be enhanced or accelerated by the termination event or change in control.

The following table provides quantitative disclosure, assuming that the triggering event took place on December 31, 2024, the last business day of 2024 and, if applicable, that the price per share of the Array Common Shares was $62.72, the closing market price as of December 31, 2024. Please see above for a description of the payments and benefits actually received by the NEOs in connection with the Closing and/or their separations from the Company in 2025.

Additional payments may become due under the 2013 LTIP and 2022 LTIP as a result of the acceleration of the vesting of stock options, performance share units, restricted stock units and/or bonus match units upon the following triggering events: (i) a qualified disability, (ii) a qualifying transaction, (iii) death, (iv) a change in control, and (v) a qualified retirement.

The amounts listed in the table above represent the maximum potential value of accelerated restricted stock units, performance share units and any bonus match units assuming that a triggering event took place on December 31, 2024 and that the price per share of the registrant's securities was $62.72, the closing market price of Array Common Shares as of December 31, 2024, the last business day of 2024.

**Footnotes:**

(1)Pursuant to the Therivel Letter Agreement, in the event of a change in control of Array prior to April 1, 2027, the Chair would recommend that one-third of the Accomplishment Award vest and all of his other outstanding equity awards vest in full. In addition, the Therivel Letter Agreement provided that, in the event Mr. Therivel's employment was involuntarily terminated by Array without cause, he would receive pro-rated vesting of his outstanding equity awards, other than his Accomplishment Award (the value of such pro-rated awards was $20,436,246 based on the closing market price of Array Common Shares as of December 31, 2024).

(2)Represents the maximum number of unvested performance share units that would become vested based upon the greater of (i) actual achievement through December 31, 2024 and (ii) the target achievement level. The above table reflects the 2022 performance share units at the target amount since target exceeded actual achievement through December 31, 2024 and the 2023 and 2024 performance share units are reflected at the actual achievement since actual achievement exceeded target through December 31, 2024.

(3)Pursuant to the Therivel Letter Agreement, in the event Mr. Therivel's employment terminated involuntarily without cause prior to April 1, 2027, Array would pay him a severance amount equal to his then current annual base salary. Pursuant to the Executive Severance Policy, in the event that Mr. Chambers, Mr. Irizarry or Mr. Lowell's employment terminated as a result of an "involuntary separation without cause," they would be entitled to receive severance pay in a lump sum cash payment equal to one year of base pay.

**CEO Pay Ratio** 

Array compared our President and CEO's annual total compensation in fiscal year 2024 to that of all other Array employees for the same period.

Our calculation includes all active employees as of December 31, 2024.

We determined the compensation of our median employee (the "Median Employee") by: calculating the annual salary/wages for each of our active employees as of December 31, 2024; ranking the annual salaries/wages of all employees, except for the President and CEO, from lowest to highest; and then identifying the median employee.

The annualized total compensation for fiscal year 2024 for Mr. Therivel, who served as our President and CEO for the entirety of fiscal year 2024, was $7,656,948 and for the Median Employee was $84,463. The resulting ratio of Mr. Therivel's pay to the pay of our Median Employee for fiscal year 2024 is 90.7 to 1.

(1)The Principal Executive Officer ("PEO") and NEOs for the applicable years were as follows:

2024 and 2023: Laurent C. Therivel served as the Company's PEO for the entirety of 2024 and 2023 and the company's other NEOs were: Douglas W. Chambers, Michael S. Irizarry, and Kevin R. Lowell.

2022 and 2021: Laurent C. Therivel served as the Company's PEO for the entirety of 2022 and 2021 and the company's other NEOs were: Douglas W. Chambers, Michael S. Irizarry, and Deirdre C. Drake.

2020: Laurent C. Therivel assumed the role of PEO on July 1, 2020 and Kenneth R. Meyers, served as the PEO during 2020 through June 30, 2020. The Company's other NEOs for 2020 were: Douglas W. Chambers, Jay M. Ellison, Michael S. Irizarry, and Deirdre C. Drake.

(2)Amounts reported in this column represent (i) the total compensation reported in the Summary Compensation Table for the applicable year in the case of Messrs. Therivel and Meyers, and (ii) the average of the total compensation reported in the Summary Compensation Table for the applicable year for our other NEOs reported for the applicable year other than the PEO for such years.

(3)To calculate compensation actually paid, adjustments were made to the amounts reported in the Summary Compensation Table for the applicable year. A reconciliation of the adjustments for Messrs. Therivel and Meyers and for the average of the other NEOs is set forth following the footnotes to this table.

(4)Pursuant to rules of the SEC, the comparison assumes $100 was invested on December 31, 2019 in our common stock. Historic stock price performance is not necessarily indicative of future stock price performance.

(5)The TSR Peer Group consists of the component companies of the Dow Jones U.S. Telecommunications Index.

(6)The Company uses Return on Capital as our Company selected metric, which is calculated as earnings before interest, adjusted for income tax impacts, divided by the sum of total debt, right of use lease liabilities, and total equity. This metric is the sole metric used to measure performance under the PSU awards.

**Most important financial measures**

The following is a list of financial performance measures, which in the Company's assessment represent the most important financial performance measures used by the Company to link compensation actually paid to the NEOs for 2024. Please see the Compensation Discussion & Analysis for further information regarding these measures and how they were used in the 2024 executive compensation program, including the Array Annual Incentive Plan and the 2024 performance share units.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Return on Capital

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Consolidated Total Service Revenues

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Consolidated Operating Cash Flow

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Consolidated Capital Expenditures

**Long-Term Incentive Compensation Committee**

The principal functions of the LTICC were to discharge the Board of Directors' responsibilities relating to the long-term equity-based compensation of the executive officers and other key employees of Array; to perform all functions designated to be performed by a committee of the Board of Directors under Array's LTIP; to review and recommend to the Board of Directors the LTIPs for employees of Array (including changes thereto); and to report on long-term equity-based compensation in Array's annual proxy statement or otherwise to the extent required under any applicable rules and regulations. The charter for the LTICC provided that the committee would interpret and administer Array's LTIP, including selecting employees who would be granted awards, establishing performance measures and restriction periods, and determining the form, amount and timing of each grant of an award, the number of shares of stock subject to an award, the purchase price or base price per share of stock associated with an award, the exercise price of an option award, the time and conditions of exercise or settlement of an award and all other terms and conditions of an award.

Prior to its dissolution, under its charter, the LTICC had the authority to delegate some or all of its responsibilities and duties with respect to Array's LTIP to the Chair of Array or any executive officer of Array as the committee deemed appropriate, to the extent permitted by law, applicable listing standards and the applicable LTIP, but not regarding any award to officers of Array who were subject to the requirements of Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The LTICC did not delegate any authority with respect to the officers identified in the Summary Compensation Table or any other executive officers identified in this 2025 Proxy Statement. The LTICC had delegated authority to the Chair and the President and CEO of Array only with respect to persons who were not executive officers.

The Chair and/or the President and CEO and/or the Board may rely on the services of Array's compensation and employee benefits consultant, Willis Towers Watson.

**Compensation Consultant**

Willis Towers Watson was Array's compensation consultant and engaged by Array management. Although Willis Towers Watson was engaged by Array management, it also assisted the LTICC with respect to long-term equity-based compensation, and the Chair, who in effect functioned as the compensation committee for executive compensation other than long-term equity-based compensation.

Willis Towers Watson provided external market compensation data to Array from its executive compensation survey database and, as requested, provided recommendations on the type and amount of compensation to be granted to officers and other award recipients. In 2024, Willis Towers Watson also advised Array regarding certain compensation trends in connection with the strategic transactions described above. Willis Towers Watson generally did not provide other services to Array, except as requested from time to time with respect to specific matters. Willis Towers Watson did not provide any meaningful amount of other services to Array in 2024.

Willis Towers Watson also provides compensation consulting and other services to Array's parent company, TDS, which are described in the TDS proxy statement.

**Compensation Consultant Conflicts of Interest**

As required by SEC and NYSE rules, the Chair and LTICC of Array considered if the work of Willis Towers Watson raised any conflict of interest. Based on their review, it was determined that the work did not raise any conflict of interest considering the factors identified in Rule 10C-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

As indicated under "Compensation Consultant," Array management retained Willis Towers Watson to advise on compensation matters. Neither the Array LTICC nor the Chair retained any compensation consultant but the LTICC and Chair did receive advice from Willis Towers Watson.

Willis Towers Watson did not provide any advice as to director compensation.

**Risks from Compensation Policies and Practices**

Based on its assessment in 2024, Array does not believe that its compensation policies and practices risks are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company or that any portion of its compensation policies and practices encourage excessive risk taking. Array's compensation policies and practices have been developed over time with the assistance of Willis Towers Watson.

Array believes that its compensation programs do not encourage excessive risk taking for the following reasons:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Our programs contain a mix of short and long-term compensation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A portion of compensation is fixed salary, discouraging any risk taking.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Bonuses are not derived from a single performance measure which discourages risk taking. Individual and company performance components are utilized.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Half of target long-term incentive compensation is awarded in restricted stock units which have value, unlike stock options which might be unexercisable due to stock price.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Half of target long-term incentive compensation is awarded in performance share units linked to achievement of metrics determined by the LTICC.

Array believes there is less risk related to compensation policies and practices for non-executive officers than executive officers.

In general, Array believes that its risks are similar to those at other publicly traded companies. As a wireless company prior to Closing, it also faced risks similar to other companies in the industry.

Another factor anticipated to discourage excessive risk taking is that, depending on the facts and circumstances, Array may seek to adjust or recover awards or payments if the relevant performance measures upon which they are based are restated or otherwise adjusted in a manner that would reduce the size of an award or payment.

(a)Includes each director unless such director is an executive officer whose compensation, including any compensation for service as a director, is fully reflected in the Summary Compensation Table, except for directors who do not receive any compensation directly from Array as discussed in the next paragraph. Accordingly, the above includes only non-employee directors. Directors who are employees of TDS or its subsidiaries do not receive directors' fees.

In 2024, James W. Butman (former President and CEO of TDS Telecom), LeRoy T. Carlson, Jr., and Vicki L. Villacrez did not receive any compensation directly from Array and instead were compensated by TDS and/or one of its subsidiaries in connection with their services as an officer of TDS. A portion of LeRoy T. Carlson, Jr.'s and Vicki L. Villacrez' compensation expense incurred by TDS for 2024 was allocated to Array by TDS, along with other expenses of TDS. The allocation by TDS to Array was done in the form of a single allocation of cost pursuant to the Intercompany Agreement discussed below under "Intercompany Agreement." There was no identification or quantification of the compensation of such two persons, or of any other allocated expense in this allocation of cost to Array. The allocation of cost was recorded as a single expense by Array. Array did not obtain details of the components that make up this allocation of cost and did not separate any part of the allocation of cost to other accounts such as compensation expense. Accordingly, the compensation expenses incurred by TDS with respect to such persons were not reported in the above table. However, for purposes of disclosure, approximately 65% of the compensation expense incurred by TDS in 2024 with respect to such two persons was included by TDS in the total allocation of cost to Array for 2024. No portion of the compensation expense for James W. Butman was allocated to Array for 2024. Information with respect to TDS compensation for James W. Butman, LeRoy T. Carlson, Jr. and Vicki L. Villacrez is included in TDS' 2025 proxy statement since each is a NEO of TDS.

(b)Includes the aggregate dollar amount of all fees earned or paid in cash for services as a director during 2024, including annual retainer fees, committee and/or chairperson fees, and meeting fees.

(c)The amounts in this column represent the aggregate grant date fair value of the annual stock awards in 2024. Pursuant to the terms of the director compensation plan in effect at that time, each non-employee director who was on the board for a full-year received an annual stock award in the form of fully vested Array Common Shares having a value of $120,000 rounded up to the closest whole share on May 21, 2024. Based on the closing price of $43.01 of a Array Common Share on May 21, 2024, a total of 2,836 shares were issued to each non-employee director who was on the board for the full year.

**Narrative Disclosure to Director Compensation Table**

Each director who was not an employee of Array, TDS, TDS Telecom or any other subsidiary of TDS ("non-employee director") was entitled to receive the following compensation in 2024.

---

| | |
|:---|:---|

Under the Non-Employee Directors' Plan, annual retainers are paid quarterly in cash along with any board or committee meetings fees for meetings that occurred in the same quarter. In addition to the compensation disclosed in the table above, in August 2023, the Board of Directors approved additional compensation for the independent directors in connection with the review of strategic alternatives described elsewhere in this proxy statement. For 2024, this compensation amounted to $15,000 per month from January through November.

Directors have the authority without further shareholder approval to amend the Non-Employee Directors' Plan from time to time, including amendments to increase the amount of the compensation payable in Common Shares, provided that the total number of Common Shares issued under the plan may not exceed the number previously approved by shareholders.

Directors are also reimbursed for travel and expenses incurred in attending board and committee meetings, director education and other board or company related matters pursuant to Array's travel and expense reimbursement policy.

None of the non-employee directors had unvested stock awards or stock option awards outstanding at December 31, 2024.

**Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation**

LeRoy T. Carlson, Jr. is a member of the Board of Directors of TDS and Array. He is also the former Chair of Array and, as such, functioned as the compensation committee in 2024 of Array with respect to compensation other than long-term equity-based compensation. He was compensated by TDS for his services to TDS and all of its subsidiaries. However, as discussed above, a portion of Mr. Carlson's compensation paid by TDS is allocated to Array as part of the allocation of cost under the Intercompany Agreement described below. The President and CEO of Array also participates in executive compensation decisions for Array, other than with respect to the compensation of the President and CEO of Array.

In 2024, long-term equity-based compensation for executive officers was approved by Array's LTICC, which consisted of Gregory P. Josefowicz (Chairperson), Esteban C. Iriarte, and Cecelia D. Stewart, who were independent, as discussed above. None of such persons was, during 2024, an officer or employee of Array or its affiliates, was formerly an officer of Array or its affiliates or had any relationship requiring disclosure by Array under any paragraph of Item 404 of SEC Regulation S-K.

Walter C. D. Carlson, now Chair of Array, is a trustee and beneficiary of the voting trust which controls TDS, which controls Array. See "Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management" below.

Walter C. D. Carlson is the President and Chief Executive Officer and director and executive Chair of the Board of TDS.

In addition, the following persons had the following relationships at TDS and Array during all or part of 2024:

Douglas W. Chambers is a director and President and CEO of Array and was Array's Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer of Array and was compensated by Array.

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#id6580524fce4487cae8d141535d44758_13)</u>

LeRoy T. Carlson, Jr., and Vicki L. Villacrez are Array directors and did not receive any compensation directly from Array in their capacities as directors and/or executive officers of Array in 2024. Such persons were compensated by TDS in connection with their services. A portion of compensation expense incurred by TDS for Mr. Carlson and Ms. Villacrez was allocated to Array by TDS, along with other expenses of TDS. This allocation by TDS to Array was done in the form of a single allocation of cost pursuant to the Intercompany Agreement discussed below under "Intercompany Agreement." There was no identification or quantification of the compensation of such two persons, or of any other allocated expense in this allocation of cost to Array. The allocation of cost was recorded as a single expense by Array. Array did not obtain details of the components that make up this allocation of cost and did not separate any part of the cost allocation to other accounts such as compensation expense. However, for purposes of disclosure, approximately 65% of the compensation expense incurred by TDS in 2024 with respect to such two persons was included by TDS in the total allocation of cost to Array for 2024. Information with respect to TDS compensation for LeRoy T. Carlson, Jr. and Vicki L. Villacrez is included in TDS' proxy statement related to its 2025 annual meeting.

**Other Relationships and Related Transactions**

Array has entered into a number of arrangements and transactions with TDS. Some of these arrangements were established at a time prior to our initial public offering when TDS owned more than 90% of Array's outstanding capital stock and were not the result of arm's length negotiations. There can be no assurance that such arrangements will continue or that the terms of such arrangements will not be modified in the future. If additional transactions occur in the future, there can be no assurance that the terms of such future transactions will be favorable to us or will continue to provide us with the same level of support for our financing and other needs as TDS has provided in the past. The principal arrangements that exist between Array and TDS and the amounts paid by Array to TDS in 2024 are summarized below.

**Exchange Agreement**

Array and TDS are parties to an Exchange Agreement dated July 1, 1987, as amended as of April 7, 1988.

*Common Share Purchase Rights; Potential Dilution.* The Exchange Agreement granted TDS the right to purchase additional Common Shares of Array sold after our initial public offering, to the extent necessary for TDS to maintain its proportionate interest in our Common Shares. For purposes of calculating TDS' proportionate interest in our Common Shares, the Series A Common Shares are treated as if converted into Common Shares. Upon notice to Array, TDS is entitled to subscribe to each issuance in full or in part at its discretion. If TDS decides to waive, in whole or in part, one or more of its purchase opportunities, the number of Common Shares subject to purchase as a result of subsequent issuances will be reduced.

If TDS elects to exercise its purchase rights, it is required to pay cash for all Common Shares issued to it by us, unless otherwise agreed. In the case of sales by us of Common Shares for cash, TDS is required to pay the same price per Common Share as the other buyers. In the case of sales for consideration other than cash, TDS is required to pay cash equal to the fair market value of such other consideration as determined by our Board of Directors. Depending on the price per Common Share paid by TDS upon exercise of these rights, the issuance of Common Shares by us pursuant thereto could have a dilutive effect on our other shareholders. The purchase rights described above are in addition to the preemptive rights granted to TDS as a holder of Series A Common Shares under our Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended.

*Funding of License Costs.* Through the date of our initial public offering, TDS had funded or made provisions to fund all the legal, engineering and consulting expenses incurred in connection with the wireline application and settlement process and that portion of the price of cellular interests acquired by purchase that represented the cost of cellular licenses. Pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, TDS has agreed to fund as an additional capital contribution, without the issuance of additional stock or the payment of any other consideration to TDS, additional costs associated with the acquisition of the additional cellular interests that we had a right to acquire at the time of the initial public offering. Through 2024, TDS has funded approximately $67 million in license costs. TDS is obligated under the Exchange Agreement to make additional capital contributions to us under certain circumstances. Currently, TDS has no obligations with respect to additional capital contributions.

*RSA Rights.* Under the Exchange Agreement: (a) TDS retained all of its rights to file applications for and obtain the wireline licenses to operate cellular systems in Rural Service Areas ("RSAs"); (b) TDS retained the right to exchange these RSA rights for additional interests in cellular systems in which we have an interest or interests in cellular systems within the same or other Metropolitan Statistical Areas ("MSAs") or in RSAs; (c) TDS retained the right to acquire telephone, paging or other non-cellular companies with interests in cellular systems; (d) TDS retained the right to acquire interests in RSAs in which we indicated we did not desire to participate; and (e) the rights referred to in (a), (b), (c) and (d) above were to remain the property of TDS unless transferred to us for appropriate consideration.

*Right of Negotiation.* If TDS desires to sell certain of its RSA interests, TDS is required to give us the opportunity to negotiate for such interest, subject to TDS being legally able to transfer the interest free of any restrictions on its sale or transfer. If we desire to purchase any interest so offered, TDS is required to negotiate with us concerning the terms and conditions of the transaction, including the price and the method of payment. If we are unable to agree with TDS on the terms and conditions of the transaction during a 60-day negotiation period, TDS would thereafter be under no obligation to offer the interest to us, except if TDS proposed to sell the interest within a year after the end of the negotiation period at a price equal to or lower than our highest written offer during the negotiation period. In such case, we would have the right to purchase the interest at that price.

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#id6580524fce4487cae8d141535d44758_13)</u>

*Corporate Opportunity Arrangements.* As described in Proposal 3, our Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, provides that, so long as at least 500,000 Array Series A Common Shares are outstanding, we may not, without the written consent of TDS, engage in any non-cellular activities.

Our Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, also restricts the circumstances under which we are entitled to claim that an opportunity, transaction, agreement or other arrangement to which TDS, or any person in which TDS has or acquires a financial interest, is or should be deemed to be a "corporate opportunity" of Array. In general, under Array's existing Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, so long as at least 500,000 Array Series A Common Shares are outstanding, we will not be entitled to any such "corporate opportunity" unless it relates solely to the construction of, the ownership of interests in, and/or the management of, cellular telephone systems, and then only if such corporate opportunity did not arise in any way as a result of the rights otherwise retained by TDS.The foregoing provisions are also included in the Exchange Agreement. At the 2025 Annual Meeting, shareholders will be asked to approve amendments to Array's Restated Certificate of Incorporation to update the description of Array's business as a result of the recently-closed transaction with T-Mobile.

**Tax Allocation Agreement**

Array has entered into a Tax Allocation Agreement with TDS under which Array has agreed to join in filing consolidated Federal income tax returns with the TDS affiliated group unless TDS requests otherwise. Pursuant to such agreement, TDS files Federal income tax returns and pays Federal income taxes for all members of the TDS consolidated group, including Array and its subsidiaries. Array and its subsidiaries pay TDS for Federal taxes based on the amount they would pay if they were filing a separate return as their own affiliated group and were not included in the TDS affiliated group. Any deficiency in tax thereafter proposed by the Internal Revenue Service for any consolidated return year that involves income, deductions or credits of Array or its subsidiaries, and any claim for refund of tax for any consolidated return year that involves such items, will be contested or prosecuted at the sole discretion of TDS and at our expense. To the extent that any deficiency in tax or refund of tax is finally determined to be attributable to the income, deductions or credits of Array, such deficiency or refund will be payable by or to us. Under the Tax Allocation Agreement, Array made net payments of $35 million to TDS for federal income taxes in 2024.

If Array ceases to be a member of the TDS affiliated group, and for a subsequent year Array and its subsidiaries are required to pay a greater amount of Federal income tax than it would have paid if it had not been members of the TDS affiliated group after June 30, 1987, TDS will reimburse us for the excess amount of tax, without interest. In determining the amount of reimbursement, any profits or losses from new business activities acquired by us or our subsidiaries after Array leaves the TDS affiliated group will be disregarded. No reimbursement will be required if fewer than 500,000 Array Series A Common Shares are outstanding. In addition, reimbursement will not be required on account of the income of any subsidiary of Array if (i) more than 50% of the value of the assets of such subsidiary, or (ii) more than 50% of the voting power in the election of directors of such subsidiary, is held by a person or group other than a person or group owning more than 50% of the voting power in the election of directors of TDS.

Rules similar to those described above will be applied to any state or local franchise or income tax liabilities to which TDS and Array and their subsidiaries are subject and which are required to be determined on a unitary, combined or consolidated basis. Under such rules, Array made net payments of $2 million to TDS for such taxes in 2024.

**Cash Management Agreement**

We deposit our excess cash with TDS for investment under TDS' cash management program pursuant to the terms of a cash management and investment services agreement. Such deposits are available to us on demand and earn daily investment earnings based on our invested balance. Funds are invested in investments with the objective to preserve capital, provide adequate liquidity and earn a competitive rate of return.

**Intercompany Agreement**

In order to provide for certain transactions and relationships between the parties, Array and TDS have entered into an Intercompany Agreement, providing among other things, as follows:

*Services, Equipment and Materials.* Array and TDS make available to each other from time to time services relating to operations, marketing, human resources, accounting, customer services, customer billing, finance, and general administration, among others. Additionally, we purchase materials and equipment from TDS and its subsidiaries on the same basis as materials and equipment are purchased by any TDS affiliate from another TDS affiliate. Unless otherwise provided by written agreement, services provided by TDS or any of its subsidiaries are charged and paid for in conformity with the customary practices of TDS for charging TDS subsidiaries. Payments by us to TDS, and TDS affiliates, for such services, and such materials and equipment, totaled $59 million in 2024.

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#id6580524fce4487cae8d141535d44758_13)</u>

*Accountants and Legal Counsel.* We have agreed to engage the firm of independent registered public accountants selected by TDS for purposes of auditing our financial statements, including the financial statements of our direct and indirect subsidiaries, and providing certain other services. We have also agreed that, in any case where legal counsel is to be engaged to represent the parties for any purpose, TDS has the right to select the counsel to be engaged, which may be the same counsel selected to represent TDS unless such counsel deems there to be a conflict. If we use the same counsel as TDS, each of Array and TDS is responsible for the portion of the fees and expenses of such counsel determined by such counsel to be allocable to each.

*Indemnification.* We have agreed to indemnify TDS against certain losses, claims, damages or liabilities, including those arising out of: (1) the conduct of our business (except where the loss, claim, damage or liability arises principally from TDS' gross negligence or willful misconduct); and (2) any inaccurate representation or breach of warranty under the Intercompany Agreement.

*Disposal of Company Securities.* TDS will not dispose of any of our securities held by it if such disposition would result in the loss of any license or other authorization held by us and such loss would have a material adverse effect on us.

*Transfer of Assets.* Without the prior written consent of TDS, we may not transfer (by sale, merger or otherwise) more than 15% of our consolidated assets unless the transferee agrees to become subject to the Intercompany Agreement.

**Registration Rights Agreement; Other Sales of Common Shares**

Under a Registration Rights Agreement, we have agreed, upon the request of TDS, to file one or more registration statements under the Securities Act of 1933 or take other appropriate action under the laws of foreign jurisdictions in order to permit TDS to offer and sell, domestically or abroad, any of our debt or equity securities that TDS may hold at any time. TDS will pay all costs relating thereto and any underwriting discounts and commissions relating to any such offering, except that we will pay the fees of any counsel, accountants, trustees, transfer agents or other agents retained by Array in connection therewith. TDS has the right to select the counsel we retain to assist it to fulfill any of its obligations under the Registration Rights Agreement.

There is no limitation on the number or frequency of the occasions on which TDS may exercise its registration rights, except that we will not be required to comply with any registration request unless, in the case of a class of equity securities, the request involves at least the lesser of 1,000,000 shares or 1% of the total number of shares of such class then outstanding, or, in the case of a class of debt securities, the principal amount of debt securities covered by the request is at least $5,000,000. We have also granted TDS the right to include our securities owned by TDS in certain registration statements covering offerings by us and will pay all costs of such offerings other than incremental costs attributable to the inclusion of our securities owned by TDS in such registration statements.

We will indemnify TDS and its officers, directors and controlling persons against certain liabilities arising under the laws of any country in respect of any registration or other offering covered by the Registration Rights Agreement. We have the right to require TDS to delay any exercise by TDS of its rights to require registration and other actions for a period of up to 90 days if, in our judgment, any offering by us then being conducted or about to be conducted would be materially adversely affected. TDS has further agreed that it will not include any of our securities owned by TDS in any registration statement filed by us which, in the judgment of the managing underwriters, would materially adversely affect any offering by us. The rights of TDS under the Registration Rights Agreement are transferable to non-affiliates of TDS.

**Insurance Cost Sharing Agreement**

Pursuant to an Insurance Cost Sharing Agreement, we and our officers, directors and employees are afforded coverage under certain insurance policies purchased by TDS. A portion of the premiums payable under each such policy is allocated by TDS to us on the same basis as premiums were allocated before the Insurance Cost Sharing Agreement was entered into, if the policies are the same as or similar to the policies in effect before the Insurance Cost Sharing Agreement was entered into, or on such other reasonable basis as TDS may select from time to time. If TDS decides to change the allocation of premiums at any time, TDS will consult with us before the change is made, but the decision as to whether to make the change will be in the reasonable discretion of TDS. We believe that the amounts payable by us under the Insurance Cost Sharing Agreement are generally more favorable than the premiums we would pay if we were to obtain coverage under separate policies. Payments made by Array to TDS under the Insurance Cost Sharing Agreement totaled $12 million in 2024.

**Employee Benefit Plans Agreement**

Under an Employee Benefit Plans Agreement, our employees participate in certain TDS-sponsored employee benefit plans. We reimburse TDS for the costs associated with such participation. Payments made by Array to TDS under the Employee Benefit Plans Agreement were less than $1 million in 2024.

**Certain Relationships and Related Transactions**

In addition to the foregoing, Array may from time to time enter into certain arrangements and transactions with subsidiaries of TDS, including TDS Telecom and Suttle-Straus, Inc. ("Suttle-Straus"), which provides printing and distribution services.

Sidley Austin LLP performs legal services for Array, TDS and their subsidiaries: Walter C. D. Carlson, a trustee and beneficiary of the Voting Trust that controls TDS, is the President and Chief Executive Officer and Chair of the Board and member of the Board of Directors of TDS and Chair and a member of the Board of Directors of Array. Until January 31, 2025, Mr. Carlson was Senior Counsel at Sidley Austin LLP. John P. Kelsh, the General Counsel and Assistant Secretary of TDS and certain subsidiaries of TDS, is a partner at Sidley Austin LLP. Array and its subsidiaries incurred legal costs from Sidley Austin LLP of $11 million from January 1, 2024 through June 30, 2025.

From January 1, 2024 until September 7, 2024, Anthony J. M. Carlson, a Trustee of the TDS Voting Trust and son of LeRoy T. Carlson, Jr., was employed as Array's Senior Director Growth Marketing Strategy and Execution. On September 8, 2024, Mr. Carlson transferred to TDS Telecom as Vice President of Organizational Transformation. His average salary for 2024 was $219,981 and his aggregate 2024 bonus paid in 2025 was $91,300. During 2024, Anthony Carlson received stock awards with a grant date fair value of $101,527.

The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors is generally responsible for the review and evaluation of all related person transactions, as such term is defined by the rules of the SEC, except to the extent that the Board of Directors authorizes another committee to review specific related person transactions.

Other than as described above, Array has no policies or procedures relating to approval of transactions required to be reported under Item 404(b) of Regulation S-K and Array does not maintain any written document evidencing such policies in that regard.
