| **Dear Fellow Stockholders,**<br>On behalf of ADT's Board of Directors, I look forward to <br>welcoming you to our 2026 Annual Meeting.<br>During 2025, we strengthened ADT's position as the most <br>trusted brand in smart home security, and progressed our <br>strategy to lead the next generation of smart home security. <br>With a focus on residential customers and small businesses, <br>we delivered strong financial performance while advancing <br>the strategic priorities that are reshaping ADT into a <br>technology-forward security and smart home platform, <br>enabled by our commitment to personal service delivered by <br>more than 12,000 professionals.<br>Our mission remains clear: to protect and connect what <br>matters most while delivering trusted peace of mind. Our <br>long-term strategy is anchored in three differentiators—<br>unrivaled safety, a premium customer experience, and <br>innovative offerings—supported by operational discipline and <br>exceptional service.<br>As we look to 2026 and beyond, we are transforming the <br>delivery of peace of mind to include always-on protection, <br>real-time and split-second response, and personalized <br>solutions that live and evolve with our customers. We are <br>doing this by combining the strength of our national footprint <br>and highly skilled workforce with intelligent and proprietary <br>technologies. Our priorities during 2026 include continued <br>ADT+ expansion, deployment of ambient sensing capabilities <br>enabled by our recent acquisition of Origin AI, deeper <br>investments in AI-enhanced service, and targeted sales and <br>marketing initiatives to grow our core business, extend into <br>adjacent markets, strengthen customer loyalty, and drive <br>long-term efficiency.<br>| Our Board of Directors continues to evolve in alignment with <br>ADT's long-term priorities, bringing broad and diverse <br>expertise in technology, operations, financial oversight, and <br>customer-centric innovation. We remain committed to strong <br>governance, transparency, and accountability. Our Board of <br>Directors consists of eight independent directors and three <br>Apollo designees, in addition to myself. We continue to <br>enhance our governance practices, as evidenced by our 2025 <br>initiatives to declassify the board of directors, establish a <br>right for stockholders to call a special meeting, and <br>reconstitute the Compensation, and Nominating and <br>Corporate Governance Committees to be, along with the <br>Audit Committee, composed entirely of independent <br>directors.<br>We are committed to deliver superior results for all <br>stakeholders, including our investors, employees, partners, <br>customers, and the communities we serve. With our scale, <br>platform, and customer trust, we are uniquely well <br>positioned to deliver durable growth, expanding earnings, <br>and strong free cash flow under our multi-year framework. I <br>am deeply proud of our dedicated professionals who bring it <br>to life every day. On behalf of our Board of Directors, thank <br>you for your continued support.<br>Sincerely,<br>![img8064508_2.jpg](nyse-20260414_g3.jpg)<br>Jim DeVries<br>|

PROPOSAL 1 - ELECTION OF DIRECTORS<br>

**PROPOSAL 1**<br>**Election of Directors**<br>The Board of Directors recommends that the Common Stockholders vote **<u>FOR</u>** the re-election of <br>each of the directors up for re-election, as set forth in this proxy statement.<br>

Under the Company's amended and restated bylaws (the "Bylaws") and amended and restated certificate of

incorporation (the "A&R Certificate of Incorporation"), the Board of Directors can change the number of directors

comprising the entire Board of Directors so long as the number is not more than 15. The Board of Directors currently

consists of 12 directors. Directors of the Company hold office until the third succeeding annual meeting of stockholders

following their current election and until the election and qualification of their successors. At the 2025 Annual Meeting,

however, the Company's stockholders approved an amendment to our A&R Certificate of Incorporation to declassify our

Board of Directors and, beginning at this Annual Meeting and continuing at the Company's future annual meetings,

directors up for election will stand for election to serve one-year terms. Consequently, the full Board of Directors will

stand for annual election starting in 2028.

All of the nominees are members of the current Board of Directors. If any nominee for election to the Board of Directors

should be unable to accept their nomination or election as a director, which is not expected, your proxy may be voted for

a substitute or substitutes designated by the Board of Directors, or the number of directors constituting the Board of

Directors may be reduced in accordance with the Company's Bylaws and A&R Certificate of Incorporation.

Directors will be elected by the holders of a plurality of the voting power of the holders of our Common Stock present in

person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote for the election of such directors. Withholding

authority to vote your shares with respect to one or more director nominees will have no effect on the election of those

nominees. Broker non-votes will also have no effect on the election of those nominees. Under our A&R Certificate of

Incorporation, Class B Common Stockholders are not entitled to vote for the election of directors.

Proposal 1 is for the re-election of each of Nicole Bonsignore, Thomas Gartland, Reed B. Rayman, Danielle Tiedt, and Sigal

Zarmi to the Board of Directors, in each case, for a one-year term that will expire at the 2027 Annual Meeting of

Stockholders and until each of their successors has been duly elected and qualified.

**The Board of Directors recommends that the Common Stockholders vote FOR the re-election of each of the directors** 

**up for re-election, as set forth in this proxy statement.**

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE<br>

**CORPORATE GOVERNANCE**

**Board Declassification Timeline**

Following stockholder approval at our 2025 Annual Meeting, the Company has actively begun declassifying our Board of

Directors. This transition reflects our ongoing commitment to robust corporate governance and accountability to our

stockholders. The declassification is occurring in phases to ensure a smooth transition:

**•2026 Annual Meeting:** Class III directors (currently up for election) are standing for one-year terms.

• **2027 Annual Meeting:** Class I directors (whose terms expire in 2027) and Class III directors will stand for one-

year terms.

• **2028 Annual Meeting and Beyond:** The declassification will be fully implemented, and the entire Board of

Directors will stand for annual election.

**Director Independence**

Our Common Stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange (the "NYSE"). Following the end of our "controlled

company" status under NYSE rules in March 2024, the Board proactively accelerated its transition to an independent

governance structure. Today, our Board of Directors is composed of approximately 67% independent directors.

Furthermore, we are fully compliant with all NYSE corporate governance standards, and each of our Audit Committee of

the Board of Directors (the "Audit Committee"), Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the "Compensation

Committee"), and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board of Directors (the "Nominating and

Corporate Governance Committee") is composed entirely of independent directors.

No director qualifies as independent unless the Board of Directors affirmatively determines that the director has no

material relationship with the Company (either directly or as a partner, stockholder or officer of an organization that has

a relationship with the Company). The Board of Directors broadly considers all relevant facts and circumstances relative

to independence and considers the issue not merely from the standpoint of the director, but also from the viewpoint of

persons or organizations with which the director has an affiliation. Material relationships can include commercial,

industrial, banking, consulting, legal, accounting, charitable, and familial relationships (among others). In accordance with

NYSE listing standards, the Board of Directors considers the following categorial standards of director independence,

according to which independent directors:

• Are not, nor have been within the last three years, an employee of the listed company; nor is an immediate family

member of such director currently, nor has been within the last three years, an executive officer, of the listed

company;

• Have not received, nor has an immediate family member who has received, during any twelve-month period within

the last three years, more than $120,000 in direct compensation from the listed company, other than director and

committee fees and pension or other forms of deferred compensation for prior service (provided such compensation

is not contingent in any way on continued service);

• (a) Are not a current partner or employee of a firm that is the listed company's internal or external auditor; (b) does

not have an immediate family member who is a current partner of such a firm; (c) does not have an immediate family

member who is a current employee of such a firm and personally works on the listed company's audit; or (d) were

not, and do not have an immediate family member who was, within the last three years, a partner or employee of

such a firm and personally worked on the listed company's audit within that time;

• Are not, and do not have an immediate family member who is, or have been within the last three years, employed as

an executive officer of another company where any of the listed company's present executive officers at the same

time serves or served on that company's compensation committee;

• Are not a current employee, or an immediate family member is not a current executive officer, of a company that has

made payments to, or received payments from, the listed company for property or services in an amount which, in

any of the last three fiscal years, exceeds the greater of $1 million, or 2% of such other company's consolidated gross

revenues; and

• Do not accept, directly or indirectly, any consulting, advisory, or other compensatory fee from the listed company or

any subsidiary thereof.

The Board of Directors has determined that Mr. Gartland, Ms. Griffin, Mr. Houston, Mr. Smith, Ms. Tiedt, Mr. Winter, Ms.

Yoon and Ms. Zarmi are our independent directors, as such term is defined by the applicable rules and regulations of the

NYSE, and that Mr. Gartland, Ms. Griffin, Mr. Houston, Mr. Smith, Ms. Tiedt, Mr. Winter, Ms. Yoon and Ms. Zarmi are also

independent as defined by the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC")

and the NYSE for service on the various committees of the Board on which they currently serve. In considering Mr.

Smith's independence, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and the Board of Directors considered Mr.

Smith's prior role at State Farm as well as the relationship between the Company and State Farm.

**The Board of Directors' Role in Risk Oversight**

The Board of Directors is responsible for providing oversight for the Company's Risk Management programs. As part of its

oversight function, the Board regularly reviews the Company's credit and liquidity positions, as well as its operations, and

the risks associated with each. The Board of Directors also recognizes the strategic importance, operational benefits, and

potential risks associated with the deployment of AI and machine learning technologies. While the full Board retains

general oversight of the Company's strategic technological initiatives, it has delegated primary responsibility for AI risk

oversight to the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee takes an active role in oversight of ADT's Enterprise Risk

Management ("ERM") program, which includes the continuous evaluation of emerging technologies and evolving

cybersecurity threats. The Audit Committee leverages the highly specialized expertise of its members, including Ms.

Zarmi's extensive C-level background in securing large-scale, sensitive data ecosystems and her service on the cyber

subcommittees of other public companies, to rigorously evaluate management's cybersecurity and data privacy

protocols. The Board's evaluation of the Company's ERM practices is an ongoing process, with a comprehensive review

conducted on an annual basis, including a separate annual meeting of the Audit Committee to review and discuss

management's AI initiatives, related governance structures, and the intersection of AI with data privacy and

cybersecurity, followed by quarterly updates as necessary or appropriate. Management has developed a comprehensive

ERM program based on the 2017 COSO ERM Framework. As part of this framework, management solicits the views and

expertise of senior executives from across the Company, conducts external research on industry and general trends, and

utilizes third-party risk consulting services. The Company's Vice President of Risk, Governance, and Internal Audit

provides a comprehensive review of ADT's ERM program, including a review of the Company's Risk Register, Risk Appetite

Statement, and the Company's plans to mitigate its top risks to the Audit Committee on an annual basis. The Chair of the

Audit Committee is responsible for providing updates to the Board of Directors, including with regard to the Company's

Risk Register, and for requesting full Board approval of the Company's Risk Appetite Statement.

The Compensation Committee is responsible for overseeing the management of risks relating to employee compensation

plans and arrangements, and the Audit Committee is responsible for overseeing the management of financial risks, which

also more broadly encompasses enterprise risk management, including compliance, cybersecurity, privacy and related

risks. While each committee is responsible for evaluating certain risks, and overseeing the management of such risks, the

entire Board of Directors is regularly informed through committee reports about such risks. The Company also has a

designated Chief Compliance Officer who reports to the Executive Vice President, Chief Legal Officer and Secretary of the

Company. The Chief Compliance Officer provides quarterly reports to the Audit Committee.

**Management's Role in AI Governance**

Under the Audit Committee's oversight, management is responsible for the safe, day-to-day deployment of AI

technologies. To manage these risks, the Company has established an AI program, which includes an internal AI

governance committee and formalized acceptable use standards.

Key elements of our internal AI governance program include:

• the implementation of an AI Applications Use Policy to establish rules and guidelines to govern the use of AI;

• a focus on leveraging AI and machine learning tools safely while protecting company and customer information;

• a requirement for team members to complete an AI training course that outlines the benefits and risks of using

AI tools;

• a strict prohibition against entering confidential information into publicly available AI tools;

• a centralized review process requiring advance written approval from the appropriate supervisor and the

Company's Innovation Office for any AI use outside of pre-approved activities; and

• a requirement for team members to conduct periodic audits to ensure AI-generated output is accurate, fair,

without bias, and does not violate Company policies.

**The Board's Leadership Structure**

Our Board of Directors does not currently have a policy as to whether the roles of Chair of our Board of Directors and of

the CEO should be separate. Our Board of Directors believes that the Company and its stockholders are best served by

maintaining flexibility to determine whether the Chair and CEO positions should be separated or combined at a given

point in time in order to provide appropriate leadership for the Company at that time. Currently, our President and CEO,

Mr. DeVries, also serves as the Chair of our Board of Directors, a position which Mr. DeVries has held since September

2023. The Board of Directors has determined in its judgment that the Company benefits from having a combined Chair

and CEO role at this time. Our Board believes that Mr. DeVries' leadership and commitment to advancing our mission is

important to achieving our strategic objectives. The Board believes that the Company and our stockholders benefit from

Mr. DeVries' deep understanding of our business and culture, as well as his in-depth knowledge of the issues,

opportunities and challenges facing the Company and its business.

To balance Mr. DeVries' combined Chair/CEO role, the Board has a strong Lead Independent Director with a clearly

defined role and robust set of responsibilities to further promote effective corporate governance. Our Lead Independent

Director is appointed by our non-management directors and Mr. Winter currently serves in this role. We believe Mr.

Winter's strong leadership background in the insurance industry and his deep experience as a public company board

member makes him a strong Lead Independent Director. Mr. Winter collaborates with Mr. DeVries in setting meeting

agendas, and either may call special meetings of the Board of Directors. As Chair, Mr. DeVries presides over meetings of

the Board of Directors. As our Lead Independent Director, Mr. Winter provides independent oversight and works to

facilitate effective communication among Mr. DeVries and our independent directors, as well as among non-management

directors. As more fully described in our Board Governance Principles, the Lead Independent Director role also includes

the following authority and responsibilities, among others:

• Preside at all meetings of the Board at which the Board Chair is not present;

• Have the authority to call, and lead, non-management and/or independent director sessions;

• Have the authority to call special meetings of the Board;

• Solicit the non-management directors for advice on agenda items for meetings of the Board and executive sessions

to help facilitate Board focus on key issues and topics of interest to the Board;

• Communicate with major stockholders of the Company, as appropriate, if requested by such stockholders; and

• Consult with the chair of the Compensation Committee on the annual evaluation of the performance of the CEO.

The Company understands that no single approach to board leadership is universally accepted and that the appropriate

leadership structure may vary based on several factors, such as a company's size, industry, operations, history and

culture. Accordingly, our Board of Directors, with the assistance of the Nominating and Corporate Governance

Committee, assesses its leadership structure in light of these factors and the current environment to achieve the optimal

model for us and for our stockholders. As part of this ongoing assessment of the Company's leadership structure, the

Company's Board Governance Principles task the full Board of Directors with the responsibility to periodically consider

and evaluate a CEO and executive officer succession plan, including an interim CEO succession plan in the event of an

unexpected occurrence (the "Succession Plan"), and to review and update the Succession Plan from time to time.

![](nyse-20260414_g28.gif)

<sup>(1)</sup> The Company also has an Executive Committee that is currently inactive.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE<br>

We believe that our current Board of Directors leadership structure is appropriate and serves the interests of the

Company and its stockholders based on the Company's specific facts and circumstances at this time. In reaching this

conclusion, we considered, among other things, the composition and diverse skill-set of the Board of Directors, the

tenure of the directors with the Company and their overall experience in the business and working with the Chairman,

President and CEO, the executive management group, and the ability of the Board, as currently constituted and managed,

to ask challenging questions and further develop the Company's strategic vision. We also considered the Company's risk

oversight policies and practices to promote more focused and sustained attention to critical areas. These policies and

procedures permit and encourage each member to take an active role in all discussions, while also being designed to

ensure that different committees develop specific subject matter risk expertise and have focused oversight

responsibilities and the ability to act quickly if necessary in their corresponding areas. This structure of developing

focused expertise that feeds up to an informed and engaged full Board is reflected in the Company's disclosure controls

and procedures as well, particularly, although not exclusively, with regard to the Company's disclosures around risks,

trends and uncertainties. Specific disclosures are produced or reviewed and updated by subject matter experts at the

Company before being considered by our internal legal and SEC reporting teams, with those inputs then being

communicated to our management disclosure committee. Each of our Board committees is authorized by its charter to

consult at its discretion with any experts or advisors that it feels would be helpful, and similarly our disclosure committee

led by the Company's Vice President, Chief Accounting Officer and Controller, may consult with internal or external

advisors as it deems appropriate in seeking to ensure that our senior management, including our CEO and our Chief

Financial Officer, receive the information they need to make timely decisions about the Company's required disclosures.

To facilitate the receipt of full information and robust communication, our Audit Committee, which is chaired by our Lead

Independent Director, receives regular reports about the Company's disclosures from our Chief Financial Officer and from

our Chief Accounting Officer.

We will continue to review the appropriateness of these Board and risk oversight systems and structures. If we determine

that we should change our leadership structure, we will provide prompt notice to our stockholders, as required under the

circumstances.

**Board of Directors Meetings and Committees**

In fiscal 2025, the Board of Directors held five meetings. During fiscal 2025, each incumbent director attended at least

75% of the meetings of the Board of Directors, and of the committees on which he or she served, held during the time

period such director was a member of the Board of Directors.

The Board of Directors has three main committees<sup>(1)</sup>:

• Audit;

• Compensation; and

• Nominating and Corporate Governance.

Each of these committees operates under written charters which are available at the Company's website at https://

investor.adt.com/governance by opening the "Governance" tab, clicking on "Governance Documents," and clicking on the

name of the respective committee charter. Committee charters are also available in print upon the written request of any

stockholder. The current committee membership of our Board of Directors is as follows:

pursuant to these policies and procedures, and to evaluate such candidates in the same manner as other candidates

identified to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee;

• To develop and recommend to the Board for approval the criteria for Board membership;

• To review stockholder proposals affecting corporate governance and to make recommendations to the Board

accordingly;

• To develop and recommend to the Board for approval corporate governance guidelines applicable to the Company;

and

• To oversee the evaluation of the Board, its committees, and management.

**Executive Committee**

During 2025, until May, our Executive Committee (the "Executive Committee") consisted of Messrs. Rayman (Chair),

Coleman and DeVries. Since May 2025, our Executive Committee consists of Messrs. Rayman (Chair) and DeVries. Under

our governing documents, the Executive Committee is generally authorized to exercise the powers of the Board of

Directors between meetings, subject to certain statutory and corporate limitations. However, in 2025, the Board of

Directors amended its overarching Delegation of Authority to ensure that material strategic and financial decisions are

reserved for the full Board or its independent standing committees. As a result of these updated governance practices,

the Executive Committee is currently inactive and did not meet during fiscal 2025.

**Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation**

Members of the Compensation Committee during 2025 included Mr. Rayman (Chair) until February 2025, Mr. Houston,

Ms. Griffin, and Mr. Smith, who joined the Compensation Committee in February 2025. Since February 2025, our

Compensation Committee consists of Mr. Houston (Chair), Ms. Griffin, and Mr. Smith. None of the members of the

Compensation Committee in 2025 or to date in 2026 were, at any time during 2025 or at any other time, an officer or

employee of the Company.

During 2025, none of our executive officers served as a member of the board of directors, or as a member of the

compensation committee or similar committee, of another entity that has one or more executive officers who served on

our Board of Directors or Compensation Committee at the same time.

Except as described in the section entitled "Certain Relationships and Related Person Transactions" below, none of the

members of the Compensation Committee had or has any relationships with us that are required to be disclosed under

Item 404 of Regulation S-K.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE<br>

**Identifying and Evaluating Candidates for the Board of Directors**

In considering possible candidates to serve on the Board of Directors, the Nominating and Corporate Governance

Committee will take into account all appropriate qualifications, qualities and skills in the context of the current make-up

of the Board of Directors and will consider the entirety of each candidate's credentials, including, among other things,

their individual background, experience and knowledge. In addition, the Nominating and Corporate Governance

Committee will evaluate each nominee according to the following criteria:

• Nominees should have a reputation for integrity, honesty and adherence to high ethical standards;

• Nominees should have demonstrated business acumen, experience and ability to exercise sound judgments in

matters that relate to the current and long-term objectives of the Company and should be willing and able to

contribute positively to the decision-making process of the Company;

• Nominees should have a commitment to understand the Company and its industry and to regularly attend and

participate in meetings of the Board and its committees;

• Nominees should have the interest and ability to understand the sometimes conflicting interests of the various

constituencies of the Company, which include stockholders, employees, customers, governmental units, creditors

and the general public and to act in the interests of all stockholders;

• Nominees should not have, nor appear to have, a conflict of interest that would impair the nominee's ability to

represent the interests of all the Company's stockholders and to fulfill the responsibilities of a director; and

• Nominees shall not be discriminated against on the basis of race, religion, national origin, sex, gender identity, sexual

orientation, age, disability, veteran status, political affiliation or any other basis proscribed by law. The value of

diversity on the Board, as broadly understood in the Board's determination and consistent with the best interests of

the Company's stockholders, should be considered.

The Company has in place Board Governance Principles which are considered when reviewing and evaluating candidates

for the Board of Directors. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee reviews these Board Governance

Principles annually.

In addition, our Board Governance Principles address over-boarding and in order to provide sufficient time for informed

participation in their Board responsibilities, any non-management directors who are employed as the CEO or executive

officer of a publicly traded company are required to limit their external directorships of other public companies to one;

non-management directors who are not fully employed are required to limit their external directorships of other public

companies to three; and our CEO is required to limit his service on other public company boards to no more than two.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is notified of the intention of directors and the CEO to serve on

another for-profit public or private company board of directors, and the Nominating and Corporate Governance

Committee reviews the possibility for conflicts of interest or time constraints and may object to such placement in which

event the full Board shall determine the disposition of the matter.

Stockholders may recommend director candidates for consideration by the Nominating and Corporate Governance

Committee. To have a candidate considered by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, our Bylaws

require a stockholder to submit the recommendation in writing and must include the following information:

• The name and address of the stockholder, as they appear on the Company's books and records, and evidence of the

stockholder's ownership of Company stock, including the class or series and number of shares owned and the length

of time of ownership;

• A description of all arrangements or understandings between the stockholder and each candidate pursuant to which

the nomination is being made;

• The name of the candidate, the candidate's resume or a listing of his or her qualifications to be a director of the

Company and the person's consent to be named as a director if nominated by the Board of Directors; and

• Such other materials or information regarding each proposed candidate required under the Bylaws of the Company

and as would be required to be included in a proxy statement under the rules of the SEC if such candidate had been

nominated by the Board of Directors.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE<br>

Each such recommendation must be sent to the Secretary of the Company at ADT Inc., 1501 Yamato Road, Boca Raton, FL

33431 and must be received within the time indicated below under "When are stockholder proposals due for

consideration at next year's annual meeting?" The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will evaluate

stockholder-recommended director candidates in the same manner as it evaluates director candidates identified by other

means.

**Corporate Governance Guidelines and Code of Conduct**

Our Board of Directors has adopted a code of business conduct and ethics (the "Code of Conduct") that applies to all of

our directors, officers, and employees, and is intended to comply with the relevant listing requirements for a code of

conduct as well as qualify as a "code of ethics" as defined by the rules of the SEC. The Code of Conduct contains general

guidelines for conducting our business consistent with the highest standards of business ethics. The Company also

maintains an ethics hotline as set forth in our Code of Conduct so that any suspected violation of our Code of Conduct can

be reported confidentially, without fear of reprisal. We intend to disclose future amendments to certain provisions of our

Code of Conduct, or waivers of such provisions applicable to any principal executive officer, principal financial officer,

principal accounting officer and controller, or persons performing similar functions, and our directors, on our website at

https://investor.adt.com. The Code of Conduct is made available on our website.

We have Board Governance Principles that address significant issues of corporate governance and set forth procedures

by which our managers and Board of Directors carry out their respective responsibilities. The principles are available for

viewing on our website at https://investor.adt.com/governance. We will also provide the Board Governance Principles,

free of charge, to stockholders who request them. Such requests should be directed to our Secretary at ADT Inc., 1501

Yamato Road, Boca Raton, FL 33431.

**Corporate Responsibility and Respect for Our Communities**

We recognize the importance of corporate responsibility and community engagement with a focus toward sustainable

initiatives that serve a corporate purpose and are aligned to our long-term strategy.

We track our sustainability initiatives in internal annual and periodic reporting. Since 2021, we have published a report to

our website to provide an annual update to our stakeholders on progress made towards our commitment to

sustainability. We have continued to include disclosure of our corporate responsibility initiatives in our 2025 Annual

Report on Form 10-K, and we plan to publish our 2025 Corporate Impact Report to our website, which will include as an

appendix our 2025 Sustainability Accounting Standards Board Index Report. These reports can be found on our investor

relations website at https://investor.adt.com/sustainability.

**Executive Sessions of Non-Management Directors**

The non-management directors of the Company meet in executive sessions without management on a regular basis.

Under the Company's Board Governance Principles, the Lead Independent Director has authority to call and lead non-

management director sessions.

**Apollo Right to Nominate Certain Directors**

Although funds affiliated with or managed by Apollo no longer beneficially own a majority of our outstanding common

stock, Apollo has, pursuant to its stockholders agreement with us and based on its current ownership, the right to

nominate 20% of the directors on our Board, as long as it beneficially owns at least 5% of our Common Stock. See

"Certain Relationships and Related Person Transactions – Stockholders Agreement."

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE<br>

**Compensation Risk Assessment**

We believe that the performance goals and incentive plan structures generally established under the Company's

executive, annual and long-term incentive programs would not contribute to excessive risk-taking by our senior

executives or employees. The approved goals under our incentive programs are consistent with our financial operating

plans and strategies, and these programs are discussed and reviewed by the Compensation Committee. The Company's

compensation systems are balanced, rewarding both short-term and long-term performance, and its performance goals

are team-oriented, with an individual component, and include measurable factors and objective criteria. The

Compensation Committee is actively engaged in setting compensation programs, policies, and practices, monitoring

those programs, policies, and practices during the year and using discretion in making adjustments to such programs,

policies, and practices, as necessary to reflect the actual performance of the Company. As a result of the procedures and

practices described above, the Compensation Committee believes that the Company's compensation programs, policies

and practices for its employees do not encourage risk-taking that is reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on

the Company. This conclusion is based on a risk assessment that was performed by management in conjunction with

Pearl Meyer & Partners, LLC ("Pearl Meyer"), the Company's independent compensation consultant, and presented to

and reviewed with the Compensation Committee at its October 2025 meeting.

**Communications with the Board of Directors**

Stockholders and other interested parties desiring to communicate directly to the full Board of Directors, a Committee of

the Board, the Lead Independent Director, independent directors as a group, or an individual director, may do so in

writing addressed to the attention of the intended recipient(s), c/o Secretary, ADT Inc., 1501 Yamato Road, Boca Raton,

FL 33431. Interested parties may communicate anonymously and/or confidentially if they desire. The Board will

periodically review all pertinent stockholder communications. Additionally, the Corporate Law Department may forward

certain communications only to the Lead Independent Director, the Chair of the relevant Committee or the individual

Board member to whom a communication is directed. All pertinent communications received that relate to the

Company's accounting, internal accounting controls or auditing matters will be referred to the Chair of the Audit

Committee unless the communication is otherwise addressed. Other communications received will be forwarded as

appropriate to the relevant director or directors. Those items that are unrelated to the duties and responsibilities of the

Board or its Committees may not be provided to the Board by the Corporate Law Department, including, without

limitation, business solicitations, advertisements and surveys; requests for donations and sponsorships; job referral

materials such as resumes; product-related communications; unsolicited ideas and business proposals; and material that

is determined to be illegal or otherwise inappropriate.

**Director Attendance at Annual Meeting**

The Company encourages all of our directors to attend each Annual Meeting of Stockholders. Ten of our directors

attended the 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION - COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS <br>

**2025 Highlights**<br>

In 2025, we continued to deliver strong financial results including earnings growth and strong cash generation, which are

a direct result of our durable, resilient, and flexible business model designed to generate strong returns on capital driven

through efficient customer acquisition, efficient best-in-class customer service, and enduring customer loyalty and

retention. In particular, in 2025, we:

• generated revenue growth of 5% year-over-year, reaching $5.1 billion;

• maintained a high year-end recurring monthly revenue ("RMR") balance of $359 million;

• delivered solid customer retention with a gross revenue attrition rate of 13.1%; and

• continued efficient customer acquisition with revenue payback period of 2.3 years.

![13](nyse-20260414_g42.gif)

In addition to these core financial achievements, we advanced our strategy to remain the smart home security provider

of choice for millions of customers through our disciplined execution, streamlined operation and enhanced technologies

and infrastructure. Over the past year, we advanced key components of this strategy by:

(1)**Scaling Next-Generation Platforms:** We meaningfully advanced the rollout of our proprietary ADT+ platform,

which accounted for approximately 25% of our total new customer additions for the full year.

(2)**Driving AI and Operational Efficiencies:** We continued our internal digital transformation by implementing the

Salesforce platform across our operations, while simultaneously deploying Sierra AI-powered virtual agents to

efficiently handle approximately 50% of our customer service requests virtually.

(3)**Optimizing our Core Business:** In October 2025, we completed the sale of our multifamily business (comprising

approximately 200,000 accounts) for approximately $56 million, allowing us to further streamline operations and

focus capital on our core residential and small business markets.

(4)**Strengthening our Capital Structure:** We executed a series of capital market transactions to extend maturities,

lower borrowing costs, reduce leverage, and enhance liquidity and capital allocation flexibility, which allowed us

to lower our average cost of debt to 4.3% and extend weighted average maturity to 5 years.

(5)**Returning Capital to our Stockholders:** We returned approximately $791 million to stockholders through

dividends and the repurchase and retirement of 78 million shares, reflecting our confidence in our long-term

strategy and durable cash generation.

(6)**Broadening our Investor Base:** We navigated our transition out of "controlled company" status as Apollo

significantly reduced its ownership through multiple secondary offerings in 2025, increasing our public float and

rebalancing our ownership across a broader mix of value, growth, and index-style investors.

We also continued to strengthen our corporate governance and proactively accelerated our transition to an

independent, stockholder-aligned governance structure by:

• enhancing stockholder rights by amending our A&R Certificate of Incorporation to declassify our Board of

Directors and establish a stockholder right to call a special meeting;

• refreshing Board composition by adding four new independent directors since March 2024, achieving a Board

composition of approximately 67% independent directors; and

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION - COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS <br>

• accelerating our transition to fully independent Audit, Compensation, and Nominating and Corporate

Governance Committees ahead of the NYSE's mandated phase-in deadlines, demonstrating our commitment to

independent oversight.

**Early 2026 Strategic Momentum**

While our 2025 results built a strong foundation, we have already taken significant steps in early 2026 to lead the next

era of smart home intelligence, and enhance stockholder value creation by:

• adding revolutionary, privacy-preserving ambient sensing capabilities to our product roadmap through the

strategic acquisition of Origin AI;

• executing a new three-year, $1.5 billion share repurchase authorization to opportunistically deploy excess cash

flow; and

• joining the S&P SmallCap 600 index, reflecting the strength of our market capitalization and generating

significant passive investor demand.

We remain committed to our strategy to maintain our durable and resilient business model, drive sustainable long-term

growth, continue strong customer acquisition efficiency, and preserve high customer loyalty and retention. Our strategy

is premised on disciplined capital allocation, investments to develop and deliver best-in-class smart home security

offerings, adapting to customer needs and preferences, and, most importantly, ensuring the safety and peace of mind of

our customers.

We have aligned our compensation programs with this philosophy, as demonstrated by the performance goals set for our

NEOs by the Compensation Committee to evaluate their performance. These are summarized below for our Chairman,

President and CEO, and designed to ensure the interests of our executives are aligned with the interests of the Company

to drive sustainable long-term value creation for stockholders.

**Chief Executive Officer – Performance Goals**

Mr. DeVries' performance as Chairman, President and CEO is evaluated by the Compensation Committee based on three

primary categories: operating results, development and implementation of our long-term strategy, and maintaining and

motivating a high-performing team.

For 2025, the Compensation Committee determined that Mr. DeVries successfully executed on key financial and strategic

objectives. In evaluating his performance, the Committee specifically considered his leadership in the following areas:

Operating Results & Capital Allocation

• Financial Execution: Led the Company in achieving the strong financial results detailed in the "2025 Highlights"

section above, including $5.1 billion in Total Revenue, solid customer retention metrics, and strong cash

generation.

• Capital Returns: Directed the execution of the Company's capital allocation strategy, which included

strengthening the balance sheet through debt maturity extensions and overseeing the return of $791 million to

stockholders via dividends and share repurchases.

Developing and Implementing Long-Term Strategy

• Technology and Product Expansion: Advanced the Company's transition toward a technology-forward platform

by scaling the ADT+ ecosystem and expanding our strategic integrations with Google Nest.

• Strategic Acquisitions: Led the evaluation and execution of the Origin AI acquisition, securing ambient sensing

technology to support the Company's future product roadmap and privacy-focused security offerings.

• Customer Care and Operational Efficiency: Oversaw the ongoing digitization of our service models, through ADT

Remote Assistance and virtual agents to reduce service costs while maintaining high customer satisfaction.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION - COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS <br>

Maintaining and Motivating a High-Performing Team

• Executive Succession & Recruiting: Strengthened the Executive Leadership Team to align with the Company's

evolving business needs, including the successful recruitment and onboarding of a new Chief Operating and

Customer Officer, Chief Business Officer, and Chief Marketing and Communications Officer.

• Workforce Engagement: Maintained a focus on human capital management and employee well-being, reflected

in the Company's continued recognition by Mental Health America and ongoing community initiatives.

**Executive Compensation Philosophy**

The Company's executive compensation program is guided by the following principles:

*Pay for Performance*. Compensation opportunities are designed to align executives' pay with the Company's

performance, with a focus on producing sustainable long-term growth, as well as providing for sufficient flexibility to take

into account individual contributions to this performance.

*Align Management's Interests with Interests of Stockholders*. We believe that management should have a significant

financial stake in the Company to align their interests with those of the stockholders and to encourage the creation of

sustainable long-term value. Therefore, equity awards make up a substantial component of executive compensation, and

our long-term incentive program for executives in 2025 consisted entirely of stock options, so that executives only realize

value from the program if stockholders see an increase in the value of their investment.

*Attract, Promote and Retain a Talented Management Team*. We compete for talent with other companies both smaller

and larger, and both in our market and in other industries. To attract and retain talent with the experience necessary to

achieve our business goals, compensation must be competitive and appropriately balanced.

To reflect these principles, our executive compensation program has three key elements: base salary, annual cash

incentive compensation and long-term equity compensation. We have aimed to ensure that the base salary and target

annual incentive levels of each NEO are competitive to retain and appropriately reward our NEOs for their ongoing

service and achievements, and the focus we place on equity compensation aligns the interests of management with those

of our stockholders and promotes focus on sustainable long-term success.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION - COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS <br>

The following highlights of our executive compensation program demonstrate how we adhere to our compensation

philosophy. Furthermore, each year, our Compensation Committee evaluates each of the elements of our compensation

program to ensure it continues to support our compensation philosophy, as well as the compensation philosophy itself,

and may make adjustments or changes as it deems appropriate.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION - COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS <br>

**Process for Determining Executive Officer Compensation (Including NEOs)**

**Role of Compensation Committee and Board of Directors**

Our Compensation Committee, which is composed solely of independent directors, is responsible for, among other

things, overseeing our overall compensation structure, policies and programs, including assessing whether our

compensation structure results in appropriate compensation levels and incentives for executive management and

employees. The Compensation Committee is also responsible for reviewing the goals and objectives for our executive

officers, evaluating their performance against these goals and otherwise and for approving the compensation awarded to

our executive officers based on such performance. Our Lead Independent Director also will consult with the chair of our

Compensation Committee on the performance of the CEO.

In making these determinations, the Compensation Committee considers the input and recommendations of our CEO,

other than with respect to himself, including his assessment of individual performance, retention, and succession

planning. When appropriate, such as when the Compensation Committee is discussing or evaluating compensation for

the CEO, the Compensation Committee meets in executive session without the CEO.

In order to carry out these responsibilities, the Compensation Committee receives and reviews materials in advance of

each meeting, including benchmark information, historical compensation data, performance metrics and outcomes, and

other materials that may be prepared at the request of the Compensation Committee, including by its independent

compensation consultant.

In addition to overseeing executive pay, our Compensation Committee is responsible for the approval of equity awards to

all of our employees, including grants made to our executive officers, subject to further Board approval where necessary

or appropriate. The Compensation Committee also ratifies, from time to time, the authority of our CEO to approve equity

grants to our employees who are not executive officers under our Policy and Procedures for Granting Equity-Based

Awards, subject to certain other restrictions as set forth in such policy.

**Independent Compensation Consultant**

The Compensation Committee has the authority to retain, compensate, and terminate an independent compensation

consultant and any other advisors necessary to assist in its evaluation of executive compensation.

The Board of Directors retained Pearl Meyer, a compensation consulting firm, as its independent external advisor to assist

in its evaluation of executive compensation, and to provide insight and market perspective on our current compensation

programs. In selecting Pearl Meyer, the Board of Directors reviewed their independence, including the factors prescribed

by the SEC and NYSE, and concluded that there were no conflicts of interest that would preclude them from serving as an

independent advisor to the Board. Pearl Meyer does not provide other services to us, except at the direction of our Board

of Directors or Compensation Committee. We do not have any other relationships with Pearl Meyer.

**Role of External Market Data**

The Compensation Committee considers a number of factors in determining target total compensation for each of the

Company's executive officers (including our NEOs). These factors include position-specific market data, the executive's

experience and performance, and internal pay equity. While the Compensation Committee considers the median of the

Company's competitive market (including both selected peer companies and the broader competitive market) when

evaluating executive compensation, it is only one factor among several, including those noted above, that is taken into

consideration. Ultimately, the Compensation Committee uses its business judgment, informed by the experience of the

members of the Compensation Committee to determine executive compensation. As a result, the Compensation

**<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i3c1954271881419193d3800b8107b44b_10)</u>**

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION - COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS <br>

Committee may approve compensation that is below- or above-median market compensation for specific individuals for a

variety of reasons, including:

• specific organizational considerations, for example, such as where the role is considered critical to delivering on our

overall business strategy;

• scope of the role and associated responsibilities at ADT compared to the market comparable roles;

• the executive's expertise, where an executive that is new to a role may be compensated below-market for that role,

with the expectation that compensation increases will follow increased experience and demonstrated success in the

role;

• need for specific expertise in building new or improving upon existing business functions, particularly in the process

of hiring candidates from external sources;

• the retention of key executives the Company believes are critical to its success; and

• the overall performance of the Company and the executive's contribution to that performance.

**Peer Group Development**

The Compensation Committee, with the assistance of Pearl Meyer, has developed a peer group for use in making

compensation decisions. While the Compensation Committee considers the executive compensation data at peer group

companies, it is not the sole factor in the decision-making process. The Compensation Committee also considers general

industry data from third-party providers in its review of compensation for our executive officers (including our NEOs).

Neither the Compensation Committee nor management has any input into the companies included in these general

industry surveys. The table below highlights how the companies included in the peer group were chosen, and how the

compensation information related to these companies is used.

---

The Compensation Committee assesses the peer group periodically to determine whether any significant changes to the

business conditions of the Company or any of its peers would warrant any changes to the peer group. After review by the

Compensation Committee in July 2025, the peer group of 14 companies remained unchanged from the prior year.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION - COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS <br>

**2025 Advisory Vote on Executive Compensation**<br>

At our 2025 Annual Meeting, approximately 87% of the shares voted were cast in favor of our advisory vote to approve the

compensation of our NEOs.

We recognize that the business and executive compensation environments continue to evolve, and we are committed to

having compensation programs and practices that support our business objectives, promote good corporate governance,

and align executive pay with the Company's performance. The Compensation Committee will continue to consider the

results from this year's and future advisory stockholder votes regarding our executive compensation programs. See

"Proposal 2—Advisory Vote to Approve the Compensation of our Named Executive Officers" for additional information.

**Elements of Executive Compensation**<br>

The Company's compensation program consists of three main elements: base salary, annual cash incentives, and equity-

based long-term incentives. A significant majority of each NEO's total direct compensation is performance-based and at-

risk; in 2025, 90% in the case of our CEO and 74% on average for other NEOs. The Company also provides various benefit

and retirement programs. The below provides an overview of the elements of the Company's executive compensation

program, a brief description of each compensation element, and the reason for inclusion in the executive compensation

program.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION - COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS <br>

**Base Salary**<br>

Each NEO is party to an employment agreement or offer letter that provides for a fixed base salary, subject to annual

review. The Compensation Committee reviews base salary levels on an annual basis to determine whether the base salary

level is appropriate given the NEO's job responsibilities, experience, value to the Company, and market pay level. Base

salary levels are also considered in the context of all elements of compensation as a whole. We do not guarantee any

base salary increases.

In February 2025, the Compensation Committee considered the above factors and determined that it was appropriate to

provide certain NEOs with a market-based merit increase, effective March 23, 2025, as shown in the table below,

together with actual base salaries as of December 31, 2024 and 2025. The Compensation Committee also considered

whether any additional adjustments for the NEOs based on tenure, performance or market pay levels was warranted at

that time, but concluded that none was necessary at that time. Note that the Summary Compensation Table reflects

actual compensation paid to the NEOs for the applicable year.

(2)Mr. Khan began his employment with the Company on March 4, 2025.

(3)Mr. Young's employment with the Company ended on June 6, 2025.

**Annual Incentive Compensation**<br>

The second component of executive officer compensation is an annual cash incentive based on the Company's

performance. Tying a portion of total compensation to annual Company performance permits us to adjust the

performance metrics each year to reflect changing objectives and to emphasize those that may be of special importance

for a particular year. Through the annual incentive program, we seek to provide an appropriate amount of short-term

cash compensation that is at-risk and tied to the achievement of certain annual performance goals.

For 2025, the target bonus opportunities for our NEOs were as follows:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **Name** | **Target Bonus** <br>**% of Base Salary**<br>|
| James D. DeVries | 150% |

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION - COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS <br>

For the 2025 fiscal year, the Compensation Committee approved the 2025 AIP with a design that reflects the Company's

focus on top-line growth and bottom-line profitability for stockholders. The two metrics selected for the 2025 fiscal year

to reflect these priorities were Revenue and Adjusted Earnings per Share (EPS), each weighted at 50%:

• In order to achieve any payout on either metric, a threshold performance level was required to be met, which

would result in a 50% payout for that metric.

• Bonus payouts are also subject to a maximum of 200% of target; performance above the maximum threshold

would not result in any additional payout.

• The Compensation Committee seeks to set the performance thresholds at levels that are challenging but

attainable based on the Company's business plan in order to provide an appropriate incentive, while payouts

above target require over-performance.

• Thresholds are set to ensure no bonus payment will be made in respect of a metric if performance is below a

level that the Compensation Committee deems appropriate.

• In addition, the Compensation Committee retains discretion to adjust the payout levels under the 2025 AIP to

reflect the Company's performance more broadly or an executive's individual performance.

Based on the Company's performance against the 2025 AIP metrics, the initial overall weighted business performance

result was approximately 150%. However, for the 2025 fiscal year, after considering other performance factors, the

Compensation Committee and the Board exercised negative discretion to set the final 2025 AIP payout at 135%. The

Compensation Committee and the Board believe this 135% payout more accurately reflects the Company's overall

performance for the 2025 fiscal year.

based upon the Compensation Committee's review of his individual performance against full year 2025 objectives.

(2)Mr. Ahmad has served as our Executive Vice President and Chief Operating and Customer Officer since April 14, 2025. In accordance with his offer

letter, his 2025 AIP incentive award was prorated based on his hire date. The actual bonus payment is based on the payout percentage approved

by our Board of Directors.

(3)Mr. Khan has served as our Executive Vice President and Chief Business Officer since March 4, 2025. In accordance with his offer letter, his 2025

AIP incentive award was prorated based on his hire date. The actual bonus payment is based on the payout percentage approved by our Board of

Directors.

(4)Mr. Young served as our Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer until his retirement on June 6, 2025. In accordance with the terms of

the Young Transition Agreement dated March 6, 2025, his 2025 AIP award is based on the number of days completed from the beginning of the

fiscal year through the date of his retirement. The actual bonus payment is based on the payout percentage approved by our Board of Directors.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION - COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS <br>

**Non-GAAP Measures – Adjusted EPS**<br>

**Adjusted EPS**

We define Adjusted EPS as diluted income (loss) from continuing operations per share adjusted for the per share

amounts related to (i) share-based compensation expense; (ii) merger, restructuring, integration, and other items; (iii)

impairment charges; (iv) unrealized (gains) or losses on interest rate swaps; (v) other non-cash or non-routine

adjustments not necessary to operate our business; and (vi) the impact the foregoing items have on taxes.

The diluted weighted average shares outstanding used in Adjusted EPS is equal to diluted weighted average shares

outstanding of Common Stock calculated in accordance with GAAP.

**Long-Term Equity Compensation**<br>

The Company's long-term incentive compensation program is designed to provide a significant portion of our executive's

compensation opportunity in equity-based instruments. We believe that long-term equity compensation is important to

ensure that the interests of our executives are aligned with those of our stockholders, thus promoting value-creation for

our stockholders. The annual equity award grant process occurs in conjunction with the Compensation Committee's

annual assessment of each executive's individual performance and potential, and it takes into account the competitive

compensation landscape. In addition to annual grants, the Company may make equity grants in certain other

circumstances, such as for new hires or promotions, or to recognize an individual's extraordinary contributions to the

Company.

Our Board of Directors adopted, and our stockholders approved, our 2018 Omnibus Incentive Plan (as amended, the

"Omnibus Incentive Plan"), pursuant to which we are permitted to grant awards of non-qualified stock options, incentive

(qualified) stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units ("RSUs"), and other stock-based

awards as permitted under the Omnibus Incentive Plan. The Omnibus Incentive Plan is designed to align the interests of

our management team with those of our stockholders.

**2025 Long-Term Incentive Plan Equity Awards**<br>

For fiscal year 2025, awards of equity under the 2025 LTIP were delivered to our NEOs in the form of non-qualified stock

options. In determining to grant stock options, the Compensation Committee gave significant consideration to the fact

that stock options do not provide any value to the executive unless the Company's stock price increases following the

grant date of the stock options. Therefore, the Compensation Committee considered that stock options would create a

strong incentive for executives to drive increased long-term sustainable stockholder value, more strongly aligning

interests of executives with those of our stockholders than in the case of RSUs.

The following table describes the general terms and conditions applicable to stock options under our 2025 LTIP:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| **Grant Type** | **Vesting** | **Other Terms & Conditions** |
| Stock Options | Generally, one-third per year, subject to <br>continued employment through each <br>applicable vesting date.<br>| Granted with an exercise price equal to the closing price of <br>the Company's Common Stock on the date of grant and <br>expire on the 10th anniversary of the date of grant unless <br>forfeited earlier.<br>|

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION - COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS <br>

Target 2025 long-term incentive opportunities for Messrs. DeVries, Likosar, Khan, Smail, and Young were approved in

early 2025. Target 2025 long-term incentive opportunities and the number of stock options awarded to our NEOs are set

forth in the table below:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| **Name** | **Aggregate Value**<br>**of 2025 LTI Award**<sup>(1)</sup><br>| **Stock Options Awarded**<br>**(#)**<br>|
| James D. DeVries | $9939019 | 3681118 |
| Jeffrey A. Likosar | $2667983 | 988142 |
| David W. Smail | $1333992 | 494071 |
| Fawad Ahmad<sup>(2)</sup> | $1033706 | 374531 |
| Omar Khan<sup>(2)</sup> | $1011855 | 395256 |
| Donald M. Young <sup>(3)</sup> | $1067191 | 395256 |

---

(1)Amounts in this column show the grant date fair value of the Stock Option awards granted to the NEOs. These amounts reflect the fair value of the

entire amount of the award calculated in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718. For grants of stock options, amounts are computed by multiplying

the fair value of the award (as determined under a binomial lattice model using the Company's closing stock price, volatility and other market data

such as the risk-free rate as of the valuation date, as further described in the Company's 2025 annual report on Form 10-K (the "Lattice Model"))

by the total number of options granted.

(2)The 2025 target long-term incentive opportunity for Messrs. Ahmad and Khan do not reflect their sign-on equity awards as described below.

(3)Mr. Young retired on June 6, 2025, and his long-term incentive award was forfeited in connection with his retirement.

In 2025, we also granted a one-time sign-on equity award to each of Messrs. Ahmad and Khan in connection with their

hirings. The sign-on equity award for Mr. Ahmad was an award of 312,109 RSUs, which were granted on May 1, 2025,

with a grant date value of $2,500,000, and which will vest in three equal installments on the first three anniversaries of

the grant date. The sign-on equity award for Mr. Khan was an award of 1,000,000 stock options, which were granted on

March 4, 2025 with a grant date value of $2,560,000.

**Employment Arrangements**<br>

Each of our NEOs is party to an employment agreement, offer letter, or other employment arrangement, which specifies

the terms of the executive's employment, including certain compensation levels, and is intended to assure us of the

executive's continued employment and to provide stability in our senior management team. The terms of these

employment arrangements are described under the heading "Employment Arrangements" which follows the Summary

Compensation Table and under the heading "Potential Payments upon Termination or Change in Control" below.

**Supplemental Savings and Retirement Plan**<br>

All of our NEOs are eligible to participate in the ADT Supplemental Savings and Retirement Plan (the "SSRP"), a deferred

compensation plan that permits the elective deferral of base salary and annual performance-based bonus for executives

in certain career bands. The SSRP provides eligible employees the opportunity to:

• contribute retirement savings in addition to amounts permitted under the ADT Retirement Savings and Investment

Plan (the "RSIP");

• defer compensation on a tax-deferred basis and receive tax-deferred market-based growth; and

• receive any Company contributions that were reduced under the RSIP due to Internal Revenue Service ("IRS")

compensation limits.

**Executive Benefits and Limited Perquisites**<br>

The Company's executive officers, including the NEOs, are eligible to participate in the benefit plans that are available to

substantially all of the Company's employees, including defined contribution savings plans (*e.g.*, the RSIP), medical, dental

and life insurance plans and long-term disability plans, as well as discounts on the services we provide. Additionally, the

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION - COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS <br>

Company provides relocation benefits when the Company requires a relocation. None of the NEOs participate in a

defined benefit pension plan.

We provide limited perquisites to our NEOs, including an annual executive physical for all of our NEOs. Mr. DeVries is also

entitled to reimbursement for certain housing and work-related travel expenses that do not otherwise qualify as

reimbursable expenses, up to an annual maximum of $100,000, plus any taxes incurred on such reimbursement.

**Severance Benefits**<br>

Certain of our current executive officers, including Messrs. Ahmad and Khan, may be eligible for certain benefits under

either The ADT Inc. Severance Plan for U.S. Officers and Executives (the "Severance Plan") or The ADT Corporation

Change in Control Severance Plan (the "CIC Severance Plan"), depending upon the circumstances leading to their

termination of service or employment with the Company. In the case of the CIC Severance Plan, a "double trigger" is

required (i.e., a change in control, plus a qualifying termination of employment) before benefits become available to the

executives covered by that plan. We believe that the benefits available to executives under these plans are equitable in

comparison to the broader market. Details with respect to the key provisions of the severance plans currently in effect

and the payments and benefits that would be payable under the plans are set forth in the section titled "Potential

Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control" below.

Severance for our other current NEOs who do not participate in the Severance Plan or CIC Severance Plan would be

pursuant to the terms of their respective employment arrangements. Details with respect to the payments and benefits

that would be payable under the employment arrangements are set forth in the section titled "Potential Payments upon

Termination or Change in Control" below.

**Other Compensation Policies and Practices**<br>

**Insider Trading Policy and Equity Transaction Pre-Approval**

The Company maintains an insider trading policy, applicable to all employees, directors, and the Company itself governing

the purchase, sale, and/or disposition of the Company's securities that we believe is reasonably designed to promote

compliance with insider trading laws, rules and regulations, and applicable NYSE listing standards. A copy of the insider

trading policy is filed as Exhibit 19 to our 2025 Form 10-K and can be found on our investor relations website at https://

investor.adt.com/governance. The insider trading policy prohibits the Company's personnel from: (i) buying, selling,

donating, or engaging in transactions in the Company's securities at any time while aware of material non-public

information about the Company; (ii) buying or selling securities of other companies at any time while aware of material

non-public information about those companies that they become aware of as a result of business dealings between the

Company and those companies; (iii) recommending to another person that they buy, hold, or sell Company securities; or

(iv) disclosing material non-public information to any unauthorized persons outside the Company. Each of the Company's

directors and officers who are subject to the requirements of Section 16 of the Exchange Act (the "Section 16 Officers"),

as well as any member of management who reports directly to the CEO, is required to receive the approval of the

Company's Chief Legal Officer prior to entering into any transaction in Company securities. This approval applies to each

of our NEOs. Generally, trading by our directors, the Section 16 Officers, and a limited group of other Company

employees is permitted only during announced "open window" trading periods that follow the public release of the

Company's quarterly earnings. Those who are subject to these trading restrictions, including the NEOs, may enter into a

trading plan under Rule 10b5-1 of the Exchange Act. These trading plans may be entered into only during an open

window and must be approved by the Company's Chief Legal Officer or any designee thereof. These trading plans include

a minimum "cooling off" period before the plan becomes effective, and the trading plans may not be amended during

their term without the consent of the Company. Directors and employees, including the NEOs, bear full responsibility for

any violation of the Company's insider trading policy.

**Anti-Hedging and Short Sale Policy**

The insider trading policy maintained by the Company contains a provision which specifically prohibits all Company

personnel from engaging in hedging transactions, including buying and selling puts, calls, options or other derivatives in

respect of the Company's securities. The insider trading policy prohibits all Company personnel from selling Company

securities short.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION - COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS <br>

**Anti-Pledging/Purchases of Company Securities on Margin**

The insider trading policy maintained by the Company contains a provision which specifically prohibits all Company

personnel from pledging Company securities or purchasing Company securities on margin.

**Equity Grant Practices**

The Company's practice is to grant annual equity awards to eligible employees on or after the first trading day after

financial and other information about the Company has been widely released through a press release, newswire or

periodic report filed with the SEC. This timing is designed to ensure that annual equity grants are made at a time when

the market has the greatest amount of information concerning the Company's performance, including its financial

condition and results of operations, as is reasonably possible. All other equity grants during the year, which are generally

comprised of new hire awards or other one-time grants, are made in conjunction with the Company's Policy and

Procedures for Granting Equity-Based Awards.

**Pay Recoupment (Clawback) Policy**

To encourage sound financial reporting and increase individual accountability, the Company's pay recoupment policy

provides that, in addition to any other remedies available to it and subject to applicable law, the Company may recover

any incentive compensation (whether in the form of cash or equity) paid by the Company to any current or former

executive officer that resulted from any restatement of the reported financial results of the Company or one of its

segments, if any, due to material non-compliance with financial reporting requirements (unless due to a change in

accounting policy or applicable law) caused or contributed to by such individual's fraud, willful misconduct or gross

negligence. Our Compensation Committee has the sole discretion to make any and all determinations under this policy

and will periodically review this policy to determine whether any changes are warranted.

The Company has also adopted the Incentive Compensation Clawback Policy in order to comply with the compensation

recoupment requirements of the Dodd-Frank Act and the NYSE listing requirements (the "clawback rules"). As required

by the clawback rules, the Incentive Compensation Clawback policy provides for the recovery, following an accounting

restatement, of certain incentive compensation that was erroneously "received" (as defined in the clawback rules) by our

executive officers in light of the restatement.

**Stock Ownership Guidelines**<br>

The Company's stock ownership guidelines help further align the long-term interests of our independent directors and

our management with the long-term interests of our stockholders. For purposes of determining an executive's

compliance with the guidelines, shares that count toward compliance are actual shares owned and unvested time-based

RSUs. No stock options or unearned performance shares count toward guideline achievement. Under these guidelines,

certain individuals are required to own equity with a value equal to a multiple of their annual base salary or, in the case of

our independent directors, their annual cash retainer, before they can sell any of their shares of Common Stock as

follows:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **Position** | **Multiple of** <br>**Annual Base**<br>**Salary or Annual** <br>**Cash**<br>**Retainer**<br>|
| CEO | 6x |
| CFO | 3x |

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION - COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS <br>

**Tax and Accounting Considerations**<br>

**Section 162(m) of the Code**

For income tax purposes, public companies may not deduct any portion of compensation that is in excess of $1 million

paid in a taxable year to certain "covered employees," including our NEOs, under Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue

Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). Once an individual becomes a "covered employee" under Section 162(m) of the

Code, all current and future compensation to these individuals will remain subject to the limitation under Section 162(m)

of the Code.

These tax effects were only one factor considered by our Compensation Committee when entering into compensation

arrangements. Our Compensation Committee believes that it should not be constrained by the requirements of Section

162(m) of the Code if those requirements would impair flexibility in compensating our NEOs in a manner that can best

promote our corporate objectives. We intend to continue to compensate our executive officers in a manner consistent

with the best interests of our stockholders and reserve the right to award compensation that may not be deductible

under Section 162(m) of the Code where the Company believes it is appropriate to do so.

**Section 280G of the Code**

Section 280G of the Code disallows a tax deduction with respect to certain payments to executives of companies that

undergo a change in control, and Section 4999 of the Code imposes a 20% penalty on the individual receiving "excess

parachute payments." Generally, parachute payments are compensation that is linked to or triggered by a change in

control and may include, but are not limited to, bonus payments, severance payments, certain fringe benefits, and

payments and accelerated vesting of awards under long-term incentive plans, including stock options and other equity-

based compensation. Excess parachute payments are parachute payments that exceed a threshold determined under

Section 280G based on the executive's prior compensation.

We do not provide excise tax gross-ups to our NEOs, including with respect to any taxes imposed by Section 4999 of the

Code. Instead, the employment agreements with Messrs. DeVries and Likosar each provide, and for Mr. Young provided,

for a best-net cutback, whereby if the adverse tax consequences described above were triggered, the executive would

receive all relevant payments in full, but subject to the excise tax, or the payments would be reduced to the greatest

amount that would not trigger such tax consequences, whichever results in the greater after-tax amount.

**REPORT OF THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE**<br>

The Compensation Committee has reviewed and discussed the Compensation Discussion and Analysis required by Item

402(b) of Regulation S-K with management and, based on such review and discussions, the Compensation Committee

recommended to the Board of Directors that the Compensation Discussion and Analysis be included in this proxy

statement and the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025.

Members of the Compensation Committee:

Daniel Houston, Chairman

Tracey R. Griffin

Paul J. Smith

*The Report of the Compensation Committee is not to be deemed to be "soliciting material" or to be "filed" with the SEC or* 

*subject to Regulation 14A or 14C or to the liabilities of Section 18 of the Exchange Act, except to the extent the Company* 

*specifically requests that such information be treated as soliciting material or specifically incorporates it by reference into* 

*any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act") or the Exchange Act.*

(1)The amounts for Messrs. Ahmad and Khan in 2025 represent the value of their cash sign-on bonus, which are described in further detail in

"Compensation Discussion & Analysis - Employment Arrangements." The amount for Mr. Likosar represents an individual increase to his bonus

payment under the 2025 AIP based upon the Compensation Committee's review of his individual performance against full year 2025 objectives.

(2)The values in the "Stock Awards" column for fiscal year 2023 reflect the grant date fair value of RSU awards made to Messrs. DeVries, Likosar,

Smail and Young in connection with the 2023 LTIP. As noted in the section "Distributed Shares and Top-Up Options", certain actions were taken in

2025 with respect to outstanding equity awards related to the IPO to remove or modify a performance condition that was for the benefit of our

sole equity owner prior to the IPO. This resulted in a non-cash accounting charge that is required to be reported here in accordance with SEC rules

as though it were an additional grant to the executive. The amount reported was computed in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards

Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 718, "Stock Compensation," ("FASB ASC Topic 718").

(3)The value in the "Stock Awards" column for fiscal year 2025 for Mr. Ahmad represents the grant date fair value of a sign-on RSU award, as

described in further detail in "Compensation Discussion & Analysis - 2025 Long-Term Incentive Plan Equity Awards."

(4)The values in the "Option Awards" column for fiscal years 2025 and 2024 represent the following:

<u>2025</u>: The fair value associated with the grant of non-qualified stock options for Messrs. DeVries, Likosar, Ahmad, Khan, Smail and Young made in

connection with the 2025 LTIP and, for Mr. Khan, the fair value associated with the grant of a sign-on non-qualified stock option award, as

described in "Compensation Discussion & Analysis - 2025 Long-Term Incentive Plan Equity Awards."

<u>2024</u>: The fair value associated with the grant of non-qualified stock options for Messrs. DeVries, Likosar, Smail and Young made in connection

with the 2024 LTIP.

(5)The amounts reported in this column were earned under our annual cash incentive bonus program for the applicable year, which is described

above. See "Executive Compensation—Annual Incentive Compensation."

(6)Details with respect to the amounts in this column are set forth in the "All Other Compensation" table below.

(1)Amounts represent matching contributions made by the Company on behalf of each NEO to its tax-qualified 401(k) RSIP and to its non-qualified

SSRP, as applicable. SSRP employer contributions are reported in the year earned rather than the successive year when the contribution amount is

finalized.

(2)Miscellaneous compensation in fiscal year 2025 includes: (i) for Mr. DeVries, $34,200 related to certain reimbursed housing expenses, $34,466 in

certain work-related travel expenses that did not qualify as reimbursable business expenses, and an additional payment in 2025 equal to $44,550

as a reimbursement of the taxes on the aforementioned expenses; (ii) the value of Company-paid contributions for life insurance benefits for all

NEOs; and (iii) for Mr. Ahmad, relocation benefits valued at $175,604.

**Distributed Shares and Top-Up Options**<br>

Prior to our 2018 initial public offering (the "IPO"), Messrs. DeVries, Likosar, and Young held profits interests (the "Profits

Interests") in Prime Security Services TopCo Parent, L.P. ("TopCo Parent") with vesting terms contingent on Apollo, our

sole owner at the time, achieving certain investment return objectives (the "Legacy Performance Goals"). Upon our IPO,

Apollo redeemed each Profits Interest for one restricted share of Common Stock (a "Distributed Share") and one stock

option (a "Top-up Option", together with the Distributed Shares, the "Legacy Awards") with an exercise price of $13.30

per share. Vesting of the Legacy Awards remained subject to the Legacy Performance Goals, as well as a service-vesting

condition, which has since been satisfied. Additional information on the Legacy Performance Goals can be found in our

Registration Statement on Form S-1, as amended, filed with the SEC on January 17, 2018. As previously described in our

2025 Proxy Statement and Notice of Annual Meeting filed with the SEC on April 7, 2025, the Compensation Committee,

after taking various factors into consideration, determined that the Legacy Performance Goals should be deemed

satisfied for then-active employees such that 50% of the Legacy Awards vested in 2024 and the remaining 50% vested on

March 31, 2025.

While no value was actually paid, or additional grants made, to the NEOs, SEC rules require that the accounting

modification expense associated with these determinations be included in the Summary Compensation Table and be

reflected as an additional grant of equity awards. The accounting modification expense resulting from the portion of the

Legacy Awards that vested in 2025 is reflected in this year's Summary Compensation Table.

(1)The exercise price for the stock options reported in this column was $7.59 per share for awards issued on 3/4/2025 and $8.01 per share for the

option award provided to Mr. Ahmad on 5/1/2025.

(2)Amounts in this column show the grant date fair value of the Stock Option awards granted to the NEOs. These amounts reflect the fair value of the

entire amount of the award calculated in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718. For grants of stock options, amounts are computed by multiplying

the fair value of the award (as determined under the Lattice Model) by the total number of options granted.

(3)Under our 2025 AIP, each NEO is eligible to receive an annual cash incentive bonus for the fiscal year, the amount of which varies depending on

the degree of attainment of certain performance goals, and evaluation of individual performance, as described in "Compensation Discussion and

Analysis—Elements of Executive Compensation—Annual Incentive Compensation." Amounts reported in columns (a) through (c) represent the

potential amount of the bonus if performance goals were attained at threshold, target, or maximum levels.

(4)Amounts represent grants of non-qualified stock options with respect to our long-term incentive program and are described more fully in the

Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal 2025 Year-End Table.

(5)Amounts in the "Grant Date Fair Value of Stock and Option Awards" column reflect the incremental fair value associated with the modification of

Messrs. DeVries, Likosar, and Young's Legacy Awards. As noted in the section entitled "Distributed Shares and Top-Up Options," this does not

represent an additional grant or payment to the executive, but is a non-cash accounting charge that is required to be reported in this table

pursuant to SEC rules. See footnote (2) to the "Stock Awards" column of the "Summary Compensation Table" above and the section "Distributed

Shares and Top-Up Options" for additional information.

(6)Amounts represent the sign-on equity awards for each of Messrs. Ahmad and Khan.

(1)The amounts shown in columns (a) and (b) reflect employee and Company contributions, respectively, under the SSRP, the Company's non-

qualified retirement savings plan during fiscal 2025. All of the amounts in columns (a) and (b) are included in the Summary Compensation Table

under the column heading "Salary" and "All Other Compensation," respectively.

(2)The amounts shown in this column include earnings (or losses) on each respective NEO's notional account in the SSRP.

The SSRP is a non-qualified deferred compensation plan that operates in conjunction with our RSIP. A participant must

designate the portion of the credits to his account that will be allocated among the various measurement funds.

Participant notional account balances are credited daily with the rate of return earned by the applicable measurement

fund. The measurement funds for the SSRP are consistent with those funds available under the Company's RSIP.

For fiscal 2025, (i) Mr. DeVries elected to make contributions equal to 5% of his base salary and 5% of his performance

bonus, (ii) Mr. Likosar elected to make contributions equal to 5% of his base salary and 5% of his performance bonus, (iii)

Mr. Smail elected to make contributions equal to 5% of his base salary and 5% of his performance bonus, and (iv) Mr.

Young elected to make contributions equal to 11% of his base salary and 11% of his performance bonus.

The Company made matching contributions equal to 50% of the first 5% of eligible pay contributed by each eligible

executive. An additional Company contribution was made in 2025 based on Plan eligibility requirements. Under the terms

of the SSRP, eligible executives may elect to defer up to 50% of their base salary and up to 80% of their performance

bonus.

A participant is always fully vested in the participant's own contributions and vests in the Company contributions after

completing three years of service from the date of hire, subject to full vesting upon death, disability, retirement (e.g., (i)

age 55 and (ii) a combination of age and years of service at separation totaling at least 60), or a change in control.

Distributions are made in either a lump sum or in annual installments (up to 15 years) in accordance with a participant's

election. In the event a separation from service is due to a participant's death or disability a distribution is made in a lump

sum within 90 days of such event.

connection with a change in control as defined in Section 280G of the Code and the regulations thereunder) will be

capped at three times the NEO's "base amount" under Section 280G of the Code and the regulations thereunder if the

cap results in a greater after-tax payment to the NEO than if the payments were not capped.

**Applicable Definitions**

For purposes of the employment arrangements with our NEOs:

For Messrs. DeVries and Likosar, a termination is for "Cause" if the executive (i) is convicted of, or pleads nolo contendere

to, a crime that constitutes a felony or involves fraud or a breach of the executive's duty of loyalty with respect to the

Company, or any of its customers or suppliers that results in material injury to the Company, (ii) repeatedly fails to

perform reasonably assigned duties which failure remains uncured for ten (10) days after receiving written notice, (iii)

commits an act of fraud, misappropriation, embezzlement, or materially misuses funds or property belonging to the

Company, (iv) commits a willful violation of the Company's written policies, or other willful misconduct that results in

material injury to the Company, which violation remains uncured for ten (10) days after receiving written notice, (v)

materially breaches his employment arrangements resulting in material injury to the Company, which breach remains

uncured for ten (10) days after receiving written notice, or (vi) violates the terms of his confidentiality, non-

disparagement, non-competition and non-solicitation provisions.

For Mr. Smail, a termination for "Cause" shall mean his (i) substantial failure or refusal to perform duties and

responsibilities of his job as required by the Company, (ii) material violation of any fiduciary duty owed to the Company,

(iii) conviction of, or entry of a plea of nolo contendere with respect to, a felony, (iv) conviction of, or entry of a plea of

nolo contendere with respect to, a misdemeanor which involves dishonesty, fraud or morally repugnant behavior, (v)

dishonesty, (vi) theft, (vii) violation of Company rules or policy, or (viii) other egregious or morally repugnant conduct that

has, or could have, a serious and detrimental impact on the Company and its employees. The Company, in its sole and

absolute discretion, shall determine Cause.

For Messrs. Ahmad and Khan, a termination for "Cause" shall mean his (i) substantial failure or refusal to perform duties

and responsibilities of his job as required by the Company, (ii) material violation of any fiduciary duty owed to the

Company, (iii) conviction of, or entry of a plea of nolo contendere with respect to, a felony, (iv) conviction of, or entry of a

plea of nolo contendere with respect to, a misdemeanor which involves dishonesty, fraud or morally repugnant behavior,

(v) dishonesty, (vi) theft, (vii) violation of Company rules or policy, or (viii) other egregious or morally repugnant conduct

that has, or could have, a serious and detrimental impact on the Company and its employees. The Company, in its sole

and absolute discretion, shall determine Cause.

Each of Messrs. DeVries and Likosar may terminate their employment for "Good Reason" if any of the following events

occur without such NEO's prior express written consent: (i) the executive's annual base salary or target bonus is

decreased, (ii) the Company fails to pay any material compensation due and payable to the executive in connection with

his employment or employment agreement, (iii) the executive's duties, responsibilities, authority, positions, or titles are

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION - COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS <br>

materially diminished, (iv) the Company requires the executive to be relocated more than thirty (30) miles from Boca

Raton, Florida area, or (v) the Company breaches its obligations under such NEO's employment agreement.

Mr. Smail may terminate his employment for "Good Reason" in the event that any of the following actions are taken by

the Company or any of its subsidiaries without his consent: (i) a decrease in his annual base salary; (ii) a decrease in his

target bonus; (iii) any failure by the Company to pay any material compensation due and payable to him in connection

with his employment; (iv) any material diminution of his duties, responsibilities, authority, positions, or titles; (v) the

Company's requiring him to be based at any location more than thirty (30) miles from the Boca Raton, Florida area; or (vi)

any material breach by the Company of any term or provision of his employment.

Such NEO must provide written notice to the Company describing the events that constitute Good Reason within forty-

five (45) days following the first occurrence of such events and the Company has a thirty (30)-day cure period following

receipt of such notice before such NEO may terminate his employment for Good Reason.

For Messrs. Ahmad and Khan, a "Good Reason Resignation" under the CIC Severance Plan means any retirement or

termination of employment by him that is not initiated by the Company and that is caused by any one or more of the

following events which occurs during the period beginning sixty (60) days prior to the date of a change in control and

ending twenty-four (24) months after the date of such change in control: (i) without his written consent, assignment to

him of any duties inconsistent in any material respect with his authority, duties or responsibilities as in effect immediately

prior to the change in control which represent a diminution of such duties, or any other action by the Company which

results in a material diminution in such authority, duties or responsibilities; (ii) without his written consent, a material

change in the geographic location at which he must perform services to a location which is more than fifty (50) miles from

his principal place of business immediately preceding the change in control; provided, that such change in location

extends the commute of such NEO; (iii) without his written consent, a material reduction to his base compensation and

benefits, taken as a whole, as in effect immediately prior to the change in control; or (iv) the Company's failure to obtain

a satisfactory agreement from any successor to assume and agree to perform the Company's obligations to such NEO

under the CIC Severance Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, such NEO will be considered to have a Good Reason

Resignation only if he provides written notice to the Company specifying in reasonable detail the events or conditions

upon which he is basing such Good Reason Resignation and he provides such notice within ninety (90) days after the

event that gives rise to the Good Reason Resignation. Within thirty (30) days after notice has been received, the Company

will have the opportunity, but will have no obligation, to cure such events or conditions that give rise to the Good Reason

Resignation. If the Company does not cure such events or conditions within the thirty (30) day period, such NEO may

terminate employment with the Company based on Good Reason Resignation within thirty (30) days after the expiration

of the cure period.

**Equity Awards—Treatment upon Termination (Not in Connection with a Change in Control)**

**Other than as described below, unvested equity awards are generally forfeited in full upon a NEO's termination of** 

**employment.**

**<u>RSUs and Options.</u>** Under the terms of the 2023, 2024 and 2025 LTIP award agreements for Messrs. DeVries, Likosar,

Ahmad, Khan, and Smail, if their employment is terminated due to "retirement," then their equity awards will continue to

vest in accordance with their terms; provided, that such retirement occurs at least one year after the date of grant. As of

December 31, 2025, Messrs. DeVries, Likosar, and Smail were, and Mr. Young at the time of his retirement was,

retirement eligible under the terms of the equity awards. As disclosed in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the

Company on March 11, 2025, Mr. Young retired from his position as Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer,

effective as of June 6, 2025.

If a NEO's employment is terminated due to death or disability, then the unvested portion of the award will fully vest as

of the date of such termination. If such NEO's employment is terminated for "Cause" then the award (whether vested or

unvested) then held by such NEO is immediately forfeited. In addition, pursuant to the terms of the respective option and

RSU award agreements, each NEO has agreed to be subject to post-termination non-compete and non-solicitation

restrictions for the 12-month period following his termination of employment. Such restrictive covenants are in addition

to (but run concurrent with) the post-termination restrictive covenants included in each such NEO's respective

employment arrangement.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION - COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS <br>

For purposes of the RSU and option awards granted pursuant to the 2018 through 2025 long-term incentive plans,

"retirement" includes a termination of such NEO's employment with the Company or as a result of such NEO's voluntary

resignation on or after age 55 if the sum of such NEO's age and full years of service with the Company is at least 60.

**Equity Awards—Treatment upon a Change in Control or a Termination in Connection with a Change in Control**

**<u>RSUs and Options</u>**. Under the terms of the award agreements, if a NEO experiences a termination without Cause or a

resignation for Good Reason during the 24-month period following a change in control, then all unvested awards will

become fully vested as of the date of such termination.

For purposes of all equity awards, a "change in control" has the meaning contained in the Omnibus Incentive Plan, which

generally means: any person or entity acquires beneficial ownership of 50% or more of our outstanding Common Stock or

combined voting power over our outstanding voting securities; the incumbent directors cease to constitute a majority of

the Board of Directors over a 12-month period; the complete liquidation or dissolution of the Company; or the

completion of certain corporate transactions including a reorganization or merger or the sale or disposition of all or

substantially all of the assets of the Company, in each case subject to certain exceptions.

Following Mr. Young's retirement in fiscal year 2025, he was no longer eligible to receive any severance payments or

other benefits. The Young Transition Agreement, entered into in connection with Mr. Young's retirement, is described in

the footnotes to the table below.

The following table summarizes the severance benefits that would have been payable to each of the NEOs upon

termination of employment or upon a qualifying termination (e.g., termination by the Company without Cause or a

resignation by the NEO for Good Reason, as applicable) in connection with a change in control, assuming that the

triggering event or events occurred on December 31, 2025, which was the last business day of 2025. See "Non-Qualified

Deferred Compensation For Fiscal 2025" on page [49](#i3c1954271881419193d3800b8107b44b_196), of this Proxy Statement for details regarding payment of account

balances under our SSRP for the NEOs in connection with certain triggering events.

PAY RATION DISCLOSURE<br>

**PAY RATIO DISCLOSURE**

The following information relates to the relationship of the annual total compensation of the individual identified as our

median compensated employee and the annual total compensation of Mr. DeVries, our Chairman, President and CEO.

The measurement date used for the CEO Pay Ratio was December 31, 2025, and as of such date our employee population

consisted of 12,190 individuals with all of these individuals located in the United States. This population consisted of our

full-time, part-time, and temporary employees. To identify the "median employee" from our employee population, we

used a "consistently applied compensation measure" that included base salary, bonus, overtime, and commissions, and

such compensation was annualized for any individual who was employed less than the full year (other than temporary

employees). The annual total compensation for the median employee was based on the same methodology used for

calculating the total compensation of the CEO as set forth in the Summary Compensation Table. For the fiscal year ending

December 31, 2025, our last completed fiscal year:

• The annual total compensation of the individual identified as the median compensated employee of the Company

(other than our CEO) was $78,569; and

• The annual total compensation of our CEO, as reported in the Summary Compensation Table of this proxy statement,

was $14,881,421.

As a result, for fiscal year 2025, the ratio of the annual total compensation of Mr. DeVries, our Chairman, President and

CEO, to the annual total compensation of the median compensated employee was 189 to 1.

**PAY VERSUS PERFORMANCE**

The Company's executive compensation philosophy is to pay for performance by providing compensation opportunities

designed to align executives' pay with the Company's performance, measure the impact of performance against

individual objectives and focus on producing sustainable long-term growth. A key component of our pay for performance

strategy is to align management's interests with interests of our stockholders through equity award grants which make up

a substantial component of our executive compensation program. For further information concerning executive

compensation for our named executive officers (NEOs), see "Executive Compensation—Compensation Discussion and

Analysis" beginning on page [25](#i3c1954271881419193d3800b8107b44b_88) of this Proxy Statement and the "Elements of Executive Compensation" on page [32](#i3c1954271881419193d3800b8107b44b_118) of this

Proxy Statement.

As required by Section 953(a) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, and Item 402(v) of

Regulation S-K, we are providing the following information about the relationship between executive compensation

disclosed in the Summary Compensation Table and executive compensation "actually paid" (as defined in Item 402(v) of

Regulation S-K) and certain measures of our financial performance.

**Pay versus Performance Disclosure Table**

The following table discloses, for fiscal years 2021 through 2025, information on compensation "actually paid" to our

principal executive officer, who is our CEO, and average compensation "actually paid" to our other non-CEO NEOs,

alongside total shareholder return (TSR) and net income metrics, as well as the Company selected most important

performance measure of Total Revenue. We believe Total Revenue is the most important performance measure in linking

compensation actually paid to our NEOs because it is a predominant metric used in our annual incentive compensation

plan and is directly tied to the evaluation of our CEO and other NEOs' performance. The amounts set forth below under

the headings "Compensation Actually Paid to CEO" and "Average Compensation Actually Paid to Non-CEO NEOs" have

been calculated in a manner consistent with Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K. "Compensation actually paid" includes, among

other things, year-over-year changes in the value of unvested equity-based awards. As a result of the calculation

methodology required by the SEC, compensation "actually paid" amounts below differ from compensation actually

received by the individuals and the compensation decisions described in the "Executive Compensation—Compensation

Discussion and Analysis" section above.

compensation "actually paid" to the Non-CEO NEOs as a group, as computed in accordance with Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K. The following table

details the applicable adjustments that were made to the CEO's and each Non-CEO NEO's total compensation for each year to determine the

compensation "actually paid" (all amounts are averages for the Non-CEO NEOs other than the CEO). For purposes of determining the compensation

"actually paid," no value was included for the pension benefit adjustments, because the Company does not provide such benefits to the NEOs

(including the CEO). For purposes of the following equity award adjustments, (a) no equity awards were cancelled due to a failure to meet vesting

conditions and (b) no dividends were paid on the equity awards that were not otherwise reflected in fair value or total compensation:

(a)The grant date fair value of equity awards represents the total of the amounts reported in the "Stock Awards" and "Option Awards" columns in

the Summary Compensation Table for the applicable year. The amount reported in this column is subtracted from the Summary Compensation

Table Total for the applicable year in connection with computing the amounts "actually paid."

(b)The equity award adjustments for each applicable year include the addition (or subtraction, as applicable) of the following: (i) the year-end fair

value of any equity awards granted in the applicable year that are outstanding and unvested as of the end of the year; (ii) the amount of change

as of the end of the applicable year (from the end of the prior fiscal year) in fair value of any awards granted in prior years that are outstanding

and unvested as of the end of the applicable year; (iii) for awards granted in prior years that vest in the applicable year, the amount equal to the

change as of the vesting date (from the end of the prior fiscal year) in fair value; and (iv) for awards granted in prior years that are determined to

fail to meet the applicable vesting conditions during the applicable year, a deduction for the amount equal to the fair value at the end of such

prior fiscal year. For purposes of the above equity award adjustments, no equity awards were cancelled due to a failure to meet vesting

conditions and as such no deduction was included. Fair value or change in fair value, as applicable, was determined by reference to (a) for stock

options (excluding the Top-Up Options), calculated using the Lattice Model, (b) for Top-Up Options, Distributed Shares and RSUs, the same

valuation assumptions were used as at the time of grant (i.e., the Company's closing stock price as of each valuation and measurement date).

(6)The Company's TSR and the Company's Peer Group TSR reflected in these columns for each applicable fiscal year is determined based on the value

of an initial fixed investment of $100 on December 31, 2020.

(7)New peer group TSR represents TSR of the S&P SmallCap 600 Index (the "S&P 600"), which is the industry peer group used by the Company for

purposes of Item 201(e) of Regulation S-K and represents a change from the S&P North America Consumer Services Index used in last year's

disclosure. The S&P 600 is one of the benchmarks used in the Company's 2025 annual report on Form 10-K, and we believe the S&P 600 is the best

available published industry index for purposes of this proxy statement because the Company was added to the S&P 600 in February 2026 and it is

composed of companies with similar market capitalization to ours.

(8)Prior peer group TSR represents TSR of the Company's industry peer group used for fiscal 2024, the S&P North America Consumer Services Index.

(9)Represents, in thousands, the amount of net income (loss) reflected in the Company's audited financial statements for the year indicated.

(10)Represents, in thousands, the amount of total revenue from continuing operations reflected in the Company's audited financial statements for the

year indicated. As of 2025, this metric replaced Adjusted EBITDA as a predominant metric used in our annual incentive compensation plan.

**Most Important Financial Performance Measures**

As discussed in the "Executive Compensation—Compensation Discussion and Analysis" section, our executive

compensation program is designed to align our executives' long-term performance with our stockholder interests. The

performance metrics used in our incentive compensation plans are carefully selected to support these objectives. The

most important financial performance measures used by the Company to link executive compensation "actually paid" to

the Company's NEOs (including the CEO), for the applicable fiscal year, to the Company's performance are listed below.

The performance measures included in the table are not necessarily ranked by relative importance. We do not currently

use any other metrics, performance or otherwise, in our incentive compensation plans but may incorporate other metrics

in the future.

• Adjusted EPS

• Total Revenue

• Stock Price

Adjusted EPS and Total Revenue are the main metrics used for our short-term performance-based awards for fiscal year

2025 and are selected to incentivize achievement of performance objectives that create value for our enterprise and our

stockholders. Beginning in 2024, we transitioned from RSUs to stock options for annual equity grants for our NEOs.

Because stock options have value only if the stock price increases following the grant date, stock options incentivize the

pursuit of sustainable long-term increases in our stock price, which therefore represents our third metric.

For definitions of the financial measures used above, see sections titled "Annual Incentive Compensation" and "Non-

GAAP Measures – Adjusted EPS," which are located on pages [34](#i3c1954271881419193d3800b8107b44b_124) and [36](#i3c1954271881419193d3800b8107b44b_127), respectively, of this Proxy Statement.

**COMPENSATION OF NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTORS**

Compensation for our non-employee directors (other than directors who are current employees of Apollo, Temasek or

State Farm) consists of an annual cash retainer in the amount of $100,000 per year, paid on a quarterly basis in arrears,

and an annual equity award of RSUs with a grant date fair value of approximately $150,000 and a one-year vesting term.

In addition, non-employee directors who are chairs of the Audit, Compensation, and Nominating and Corporate

Governance Committees will receive an additional annual cash retainer in the amount of $25,000, $20,000, and $15,000

per year, respectively, each of which will be paid in substantially equal quarterly installments in arrears. In September

2023, the Compensation Committee approved an additional annual cash retainer in the amount of $25,000 to be

provided to the independent director who serves in the position of the Lead Independent Director. New directors who

join our Board of Directors between annual meetings of our stockholders will receive a pro rata portion of cash and

equity compensation based on the period of time from the date of their appointment to the Board of Directors to the

date of the next annual meeting of stockholders. Our directors are also eligible to participate in our employee discount

program with respect to certain services we provide to our customers.

The following table sets forth information concerning the fiscal year 2025 compensation paid to our eligible non-

employee directors.

(1)This column reflects the fair value of the awards granted to our independent non-employee directors on May 21, 2025 (and for Mr. Gartland,

includes a pro-rated award granted on January 21, 2025 in connection with his appointment), calculated in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718,

excluding estimated forfeitures. The fair value of RSUs is computed by multiplying the total number of shares subject to the award by the closing

price of the Company's Common Stock per share on the NYSE on the date of grant. RSUs granted to independent non-employee directors

generally vest and the underlying units are converted to shares and delivered to independent non-employee directors on the first anniversary of

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PERSON TRANSACTIONS<br>

**CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PERSON** 

**TRANSACTIONS**

**Policies and Procedures for Related Person Transactions**

We have a written Related Person Transaction Policy (the "Policy"), which sets forth our policy with respect to the review,

approval and disclosure of all related person transactions by our Audit Committee. In accordance with the Policy, our

Audit Committee has overall responsibility for administration of and compliance with the Policy. The Audit Committee

reviews the Policy from time to time; however, any amendments to the Policy require approval from the full Board of

Directors.

For purposes of the Policy, a "related person transaction" is a transaction, arrangement or relationship (or any series of

similar transactions, arrangements or relationships) in which we were, are or will be a participant and the amount

involved exceeded, exceeds or will exceed $120,000 and in which any related person (as defined in the Policy) had, has or

will have a direct or indirect material interest. A "related person transaction" does not include any employment

relationship or transaction involving an executive officer and any related compensation resulting solely from that

employment relationship that has been reviewed and approved by our Board of Directors or Compensation Committee.

The Policy requires that notice of a proposed related person transaction be provided to our head of Risk, Governance and

Internal Audit prior to entry into such transaction. If it is determined that such transaction is a related person transaction,

the proposed transaction will be submitted to our Audit Committee for consideration. Under the Policy, our Audit

Committee may approve only those related person transactions that are in, or not inconsistent with, the best interests of

the Company. In the event that we become aware of a related person transaction that has not been previously reviewed

or approved under the Policy and that is ongoing or is completed, the transaction will be submitted to the Audit

Committee so that it has notice of and an opportunity to rescind or terminate the related person transaction.

The Policy also provides that the Audit Committee review certain previously approved related person transactions that

are ongoing to determine whether the related person transaction remains in our best interests and in the best interests

of our stockholders. Additionally, we make periodic inquiries of directors and executive officers with respect to any

potential related person transaction to which they may be a party or of which they may be aware.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, certain related person transactions including, but not limited to, (i) transactions where

the aggregate amount involved does not exceed $120,000, (ii) charitable contributions, grants or endowments where the

aggregate amount involved does not exceed the lesser of $200,000 or 5% of the charitable organization's total annual

receipts, (iii) any transaction under the Company's equity incentive plan, and (iv) certain other de minimis payments and

advancement of expenses, will be deemed pre-approved by the Audit Committee.

**Limited Partnership Agreement of TopCo Parent**

On November 7, 2016, Prime Security Services TopCo Parent GP, LLC ("Parent GP"), as the general partner of TopCo

Parent, certain members of management (the "Management Partners") and Koch Industries, Inc. (the "Koch Investor"), as

warrant holders, entered into the LP Agreement.

Pursuant to the LP Agreement, in exchange for contributing capital to TopCo Parent, Apollo was issued Class A-1 Units in

TopCo Parent, the Management Partners were issued Class A-2 Units in TopCo Parent and the Koch Investor was issued

warrants. Certain of our current executive officers are party to the LP Agreement and are listed in the table below titled

"Units of TopCo Parent."

Additionally, the Management Partners and certain other members of management received awards from an incentive

pool in the form of options in the Company and profit interests in TopCo Parent.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PERSON TRANSACTIONS<br>

The LP Agreement provides for customary drag-along rights for Apollo, customary tag-along rights for Class A-2 limited

partners and holders of profit interests, and customary preemptive rights for Class A-1 and Class A-2 limited partners.

Apollo, the Management Partners and the members of management of the Company holding profit interests will receive

distributions from the TopCo Parent on the Class A-1 Units and Class A-2 Units, as applicable, in accordance with the

waterfall provisions in the LP Agreement, which provide for distributions in respect of the Class A-1 Units until

contributed capital is returned and, thereafter, distributions to be ratably shared between the Class A-1 Units and one or

more tranches of Class A-2 Units, subject to certain return hurdles being achieved by the business.

As of the date of this report, the business and affairs of TopCo Parent are managed by Parent GP which is in turn

managed by a board of managers that is controlled by affiliates of Apollo.

**Offerings and Share Repurchases**

<u>March 2025 Offering and Share Repurchase</u>

During the first quarter of 2025, certain entities managed by affiliates of Apollo Global Management, Inc. (the "Selling

Stockholders") sold 70 million shares of the Company's Common Stock (plus an additional 10.5 million shares at the

option of the underwriters) (the "March 2025 Offering"). In connection with the March 2025 Offering, the Company

repurchased, and subsequently retired, 20 million shares of its Common Stock under the 2025 Share Repurchase Plan for

an aggregate purchase price of $152 million (or approximately $7.62 per share).

<u>June 2025 Apollo Sale</u>

During the second quarter of 2025, the Selling Stockholders sold an aggregate of 45 million shares of the Company's

Common Stock in the open market at a price of $8.27 per share (the "June 2025 Apollo Sale"). Immediately following the

June 2025 Apollo Sale, Apollo owned less than 25% of the Company's outstanding Common Stock and, as a result, the

Company's Amended and Restated Management Investor Rights Agreement terminated. The consent rights described in

Section 4.1 of the Amended and Restated Stockholders Agreement also terminated following the June 2025 Apollo Sale.

Additionally, the Margin Loan (defined below under the section titled "SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL

OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT") was paid off in full following the June 2025 Apollo Sale.

<u>July 2025 Offering and Share Repurchase</u>

During the third quarter of 2025, the Selling Stockholders sold 71 million shares of the Company's Common Stock (plus an

additional 10.65 million shares at the option of the underwriters) (the "July 2025 Offering"). In connection with the July

2025 Offering, the Company repurchased, and subsequently retired, 11 million shares of its Common Stock under the

2025 Share Repurchase Plan for an aggregate purchase price of $93 million (or approximately $8.31 per share).

All the shares in the offerings described above were sold by the Selling Stockholders. The Company did not receive any of

the proceeds from the sale of shares by the Selling Stockholders in the offerings.

**Other Transactions**

During 2025, the Company paid fees to Apollo of $1,935,000 primarily related to services performed by Apollo in

transactions related to the Company's debt activity.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PERSON TRANSACTIONS<br>

**State Farm**

On September 5, 2022, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement with State Farm pursuant to which

the Company agreed to issue and sell in a private placement to State Farm 133,333,333 shares of Common Stock (the

"State Farm Shares") at a per share price of $9.00 for an aggregate purchase price of $1.2 billion (the "State Farm

Strategic Investment").

On September 12, 2022, and in connection with the State Farm Strategic Investment, the Company commenced a tender

offer to purchase up to 133,333,333 shares of Common Stock (including shares issued upon conversion of shares of our

Class B Common Stock) at a price of $9.00 per share (the "Tender Offer") using proceeds from the State Farm Strategic

Investment.

The State Farm Strategic Investment closed on October 13, 2022 (the "Closing"), and the Company issued and sold the

State Farm Shares at a price of $9.00 per share. After giving effect to the State Farm Strategic Investment and the Tender

Offer, State Farm owned approximately 15% of the Company's issued and outstanding Common Stock (assuming

conversion of Class B Common Stock), and as a result, became a related party at the Closing.

**State Farm Investor Rights Agreement**

At the Closing, the Company and State Farm entered into an Investor Rights Agreement (the "State Farm Investor Rights

Agreement"), pursuant to which the Board increased its size by one director and appointed a designee of State Farm

(currently Mr. Smith) as a member of the Board.

Pursuant to the terms of the State Farm Investor Rights Agreement, State Farm was bound by customary transfer and

standstill restrictions and drag-along rights, and was afforded customary registration rights with respect to the State Farm

Shares. In particular, State Farm (a) was prohibited, subject to certain customary exceptions, from transferring any of the

State Farm Shares until October 13, 2025, and (b) is subject to certain standstill restrictions, including that State Farm will

be restricted from acquiring additional equity securities of the Company if such acquisition would result in State Farm

(and its affiliates) acquiring beneficial ownership in excess of 18% of the issued and outstanding Common Stock, taking

into account on an as-converted basis the issued and outstanding Class B Common Stock, until five (5) days after the date

that no designee of State Farm serves on the Board and State Farm has no rights (or has irrevocably waived its right) to

nominate a designee to the Board. Notwithstanding the standstill restrictions described above, State Farm will not be

restricted from acquiring shares of Common Stock or other equity securities of the Company from TopCo Parent and its

affiliates so long as State Farm and its affiliates would not, subject to certain exceptions, beneficially own in excess of 25%

of the issued and outstanding Common Stock, taking into account on an as-converted basis the issued and outstanding

Class B Common Stock, as a result of such acquisition.

In addition, under the terms of the State Farm Investor Rights Agreement, in the event that the Company proposes to

issue and sell shares of Common Stock, Class B Common Stock, or other equity securities of the Company to certain

homeowners' insurance and reinsurance companies, State Farm will have a right of first refusal with respect to such

proposed issuance and sale on the same terms and conditions (the "ROFR"). The ROFR will terminate upon the earliest to

occur of (a) State Farm and its permitted transferees no longer collectively owning shares of Common Stock equal to at

least 50% of the State Farm Shares, (b) the termination of the State Farm Development Agreement by the Company for a

material breach by State Farm and (c) to the extent that the State Farm Development Agreement does not remain in

effect on such date, the five (5) year anniversary of the Closing.

**State Farm Development Agreement**

In October 2022, the Company and State Farm entered into a Development Agreement (the "State Farm Development

Agreement"), which established an opportunity fund (the "Opportunity Fund") to support joint initiatives. The State Farm

Development Agreement expired in accordance with its terms on October 13, 2025, and the Company subsequently

ended its State Farm partnership programs in existing states. State Farm has no obligation to fund the Opportunity Fund

in the future.

During 2025, payments from the Opportunity Fund primarily included $255,000 made to State Farm for project initiatives

and $9.3 million made to ADT (which included $1.0 million for tax liabilities associated with approximately $2.9 million in

interest earned). Additionally, following the expiration of the State Farm Development Agreement, the Company repaid

to State Farm substantially all of the remaining balance of the Opportunity Fund held by the Company, which was $77.6

million.

**Google**

**Google Commercial Agreement**

In July 2020, we entered into a Master Supply, Distribution, and Marketing Agreement (the "Google Commercial

Agreement") with Google, pursuant to which in September 2020, we issued and sold 54,744,525 shares of our Class B

Common Stock for an aggregate purchase price of $450 million in a private placement to Google.

Pursuant to the terms of the Google Commercial Agreement, Google has agreed to supply us with certain Google devices

as well as certain Google video and analytics services ("Google Devices and Services"), for sale to our customers. Subject

to customary termination rights related to breach and change of control, the Google Commercial Agreement has an initial

term expiring on November 15, 2030. Further, subject to certain carve-outs, we have agreed to exclusively sell Google

Devices and Services to our customers.

The Google Commercial Agreement also specifies that each party will contribute $150 million toward the joint marketing

of devices and services; customer acquisition; training of our employees for the sale, installation, customer service, and

maintenance for the product and service offerings; and technology updates for products included in such offerings. Each

party is required to contribute such funds in three equal tranches, subject to the attainment of certain milestones. In

August 2022, we executed an amendment to the Google Commercial Agreement pursuant to which Google has agreed to

commit an additional $150 million to fund growth, data and insights, product innovation and technology advancements,

customer acquisition, and marketing, as mutually agreed by us and Google. The additional success funds are to be funded

in three equal tranches, subject to the attainment of certain milestones (together with the initial tranches, the "Google

Success Funds").

In January 2024, we amended the Google Commercial Agreement to, among other things, remove exclusivity for do-it-

yourself ("DIY") products and services, limit exclusivity for do-it-for-me (DIFM) products and services, and restructure the

commitment from the Google Success Funds to pay a portion of the remaining amount due to ADT as a quarterly

marketing reimbursement (with the balance to be used towards unlocking certain opportunities). From inception through

December 31, 2025, the Company had incurred expenses of approximately $100 million related to the initiatives funded

from the initial tranche of the Google Success Funds.

For the year ended December 31, 2025, $30 million of the Google Success Funds were reimbursed to the Company, of

which the Company received $10 million during January 2026.

**Google Cloud Agreement Addendum**

In December 2023, the Company and Google entered into an addendum to the Company's existing agreement with

Google for using Google cloud services (the "Google Cloud Agreement Addendum"), pursuant to which Google has agreed

to provide certain credits, discounts, and other incentives for use of the Google Cloud Platform to the Company and the

Company has committed to purchasing $200 million of Google Cloud Platform services over seven years (through

December 2030) with an aggregate of $35 million in the first two years, an aggregate of $65 million in the next two years

after that, and an aggregate of $100 million in the last three years of the commitment (the "Google Cloud Commitment").

The Company may elect to cancel the commitment in return for a cancellation fee of 30% of the total remaining

commitment amount and loss of any discounts, remaining credits, or other incentives provided under the Google Cloud

Agreement Addendum.

**Google Investor Rights Agreement**

In connection with the issuance of the Class B Common Stock, the Company and Google entered into an Investor Rights

Agreement (the "Google Investor Rights Agreement"), pursuant to which Google agreed to be bound by customary

transfer restrictions and drag-along rights, and be afforded customary registration rights with respect to shares of Class B

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PERSON TRANSACTIONS<br>

Common Stock held directly by Google. Under the terms of the Google Investor Rights Agreement, which was amended in

December 2023, Google was prohibited, subject to certain exceptions, from transferring any shares of Class B Common

Stock or any shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Class B Common Stock beneficially owned by

Google until June 2025. This lock-up period expired in accordance with its terms in June 2025.

**Other Transactions**

During 2025, we incurred approximately $239.3 million of fees (including spend toward the Google Cloud Commitment)

with Google in the ordinary course of business for direct materials, technology, and advertising services and had

additional future commitments of $13.4 million. These agreements were negotiated on an arm's-length basis and may

pre-date Google's investment in 2020. We continue to purchase products and services from Google in 2026.

**Fleet Management Agreement - Wheels**

During the second quarter of 2025, the Company entered into an agreement with Wheels, Inc. ("Wheels"), a vendor

affiliated with Apollo, for fleet management and related services through 2030. In connection with the execution of the

agreement, the Company received a sign-on bonus of approximately $2.5 million. During 2025, the Company incurred

fees to Wheels in the amount of approximately $7.4 million (inclusive of pass-through costs). Our relationship with

Wheels began during 2025, and we expect to spend between $250 million and $285 million (inclusive of pass-through

costs) during the five-year term of this agreement. Our agreement with Wheels was done on an arm's length-basis with

no special terms or conditions.

**Other Transactions**

During 2025, we incurred fees of approximately $1.0 million in the ordinary course of business to a provider of cloud

communications and workstream collaboration services that is affiliated with Apollo. Our relationship with this provider

began prior to its affiliation with Apollo. Our agreement with them was done on an arm's-length basis with no special

terms or conditions.

During 2025, we incurred fees of approximately $467,000 and future commitments of approximately $516,000 in the

ordinary course of business to a provider of IT development testing services that is affiliated with Apollo. Our relationship

with this provider began during 2021 and prior to its affiliation with Apollo. Our agreement with them was done on an

arm's length-basis with no special terms or conditions.

During 2025, we incurred fees of approximately $450,000 in the ordinary course of business to a provider of private club

and resort services that is affiliated with Apollo. These fees are part of a three-year partnership for the promotion of ADT

products and services to club and resort member customers. Our relationship with this provider began during 2023. Our

agreement with them, which expired in March 2026 and was not renewed, was done on an arm's-length basis with no

special terms or conditions. We do not currently expect to incur future fees with this provider.

We continue to purchase equipment and services from, or sell equipment and services to, each of the companies noted

above in 2026, unless otherwise noted.

**Stockholders Agreement**

We are party to an amended and restated Stockholders Agreement, dated as of December 14, 2018 (as amended,

restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the "Stockholders Agreement") with TopCo Parent and

one of the Co-Investors. The Stockholders Agreement gives Apollo the right to nominate a majority of our directors as

long as Apollo beneficially owns 50% or more of our outstanding Common Stock and specifies how Apollo's nomination

rights decrease as Apollo's beneficial ownership of our Common Stock also decreases. As of April 7, 2026, Apollo's

beneficial ownership of the Company's Common Stock and Class B Common Stock is approximately 12.7%, and Apollo

currently has the right to nominate 20% of the directors on our Board.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PERSON TRANSACTIONS<br>

The Stockholders Agreement previously required the Company to obtain TopCo Parent's prior written approval before

taking certain significant actions, including amendments to organizational documents, equity issuances, dividend

declarations, mergers and acquisitions, incurrence of indebtedness, changes to the size of the Board, and hiring or

terminating executive officers. These approval rights terminated when TopCo Parent's beneficial ownership fell below

25% of the outstanding Common Stock, and accordingly, none of these consent rights are currently in effect.

**Registration Rights Agreement**

We are party to a Registration Rights Agreement with TopCo Parent (the "Registration Rights Agreement"), pursuant to

which each of TopCo Parent, Prime TopCo II LP, and their affiliates is entitled to demand the registration of the sale of

certain or all of our Common Stock that it beneficially owns. For example, in September 2020, Apollo and certain

employees and other stockholders sold shares in a registered offering pursuant to a demand registration request from

Apollo. Among other things, under the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement:

• If we propose to file certain types of registration statements under the Securities Act with respect to an offering of

equity securities, we will be required to use our reasonable best efforts to offer the other parties to the Registration

Rights Agreement, if any, the opportunity to register the sale of all or part of their shares on the terms and conditions

set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement (customarily known as "piggyback rights"); and

• TopCo Parent has the right, subject to certain conditions and exceptions, to request that we file registration

statements with the SEC for one or more underwritten offerings of all or part of our Common Stock that it beneficially

owns and the Company is required to cause any such registration statements (a) to be filed with the SEC promptly

and, in any event, on or before the date that is 90 days, in the case of a registration statement on Form S-1, or 45

days, in the case of a registration statement on Form S-3, after we receive the written request to effectuate such

demand registration and (b) to become effective as promptly as reasonably practicable and in any event no later than

90 days after it is initially filed.

All expenses of registration under the Registration Rights Agreement, including the legal fees of one counsel retained by

or on behalf of TopCo Parent, will be paid by us.

The registration rights granted in the Registration Rights Agreement are subject to customary restrictions such as

minimums, blackout periods and, if a registration is underwritten, any limitations on the number of shares to be included

in the underwritten offering as reasonably advised by the managing underwriter. The Registration Rights Agreement also

contains customary indemnification and contribution provisions. The Registration Rights Agreement is governed by New

York law.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PERSON TRANSACTIONS<br>

**Management Investor Rights Agreement**

Prior to the consummation of our IPO, we entered into an Amended and Restated Management Investor Rights

Agreement among TopCo Parent, the Company, and certain Holders (as defined therein) (the "MIRA"). Each holder of our

shares of Common Stock issued upon exercise of options that had been issued under our 2016 Equity Incentive Plan

automatically became a party to the MIRA. Additionally, each individual who received Distributed Shares in redemption

of such individual's Class B Units in connection with our IPO executed a joinder to the MIRA. The MIRA provided that all

shares of our Common Stock governed thereunder are generally subject to transfer restrictions, repurchase rights, and

piggyback registration rights in connection with certain offerings of our Common Stock.

***MIRA Amendments***

On December 9, 2022, after discussions between TopCo Parent and certain officers of the Company, Topco Parent

entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Amended and Restated Management Investor Rights Agreement (the "MIRA

Amendment").

The MIRA Amendment, (a) clarified that the holders of all Subject Shares (as defined in the MIRA Amendment) have

Piggy-Back Registration Rights (as defined in the MIRA) without regard to further proceeds received or consideration paid

for Common Stock by TopCo Parent, (b) clarified that only Subject Shares are subject to the MIRA, (c) clarified that

holders of Subject Shares may Dispose (as defined in the MIRA) of vested Subject Shares in proportion to the Apollo Sale

Percentage (as defined in the MIRA Amendment), and (d) provided that the MIRA will be terminated upon such time as

the Majority Stockholders (as defined in the MIRA Amendment) no longer collectively beneficially own at least 25% of the

outstanding shares of Common Stock on an as-converted basis or upon the consummation of a Control Disposition (as

defined in the MIRA).

On August 1, 2024, the MIRA, as amended and restated was further amended to, among other things, limit the

applicability of the MIRA to certain current and former members of the Company's executive leadership team.

***MIRA Termination***

In June 2025, following Apollo's open market sale of 45 million shares of the Company's Common Stock and resulting

reduction in ownership in the Company's Common Stock below 25%, the MIRA terminated. The Company does not have

any remaining obligations under the MIRA.

PROPOSAL 2 — ADVISORY VOTE TO APPROVE THE COMPENSATION OF OUR NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS<br>

**PROPOSAL 2**<br>**Advisory Vote to Approve the Compensation of our NEOs**<br>The Board of Directors recommends that the stockholders vote **<u>FOR</u>** the approval, on an advisory <br>basis, of the compensation paid by the Company to the NEOs as disclosed in this proxy statement.<br>

In accordance with Section 14A of the Exchange Act and the related rules of the SEC and as a matter of good corporate

governance, a proposed resolution will be presented at the Annual Meeting asking our stockholders to approve, on an

advisory basis, the compensation of the Company's NEOs as disclosed in the CD&A, the Summary Compensation Table,

and the related compensation tables, notes and narrative in the proxy statement for the Company's 2026 Annual

Meeting.

As set forth in the CD&A section beginning on page [25](#i3c1954271881419193d3800b8107b44b_88), the Company has designed its compensation programs to: (a) align

executives' pay with the Company's performance and focus on producing sustainable long-term growth, (b) attract and

retain executives with the experience necessary to achieve our business goals, and (c) align executives' interests with

those of the stockholders and to encourage the creation of long-term value. Although the vote to approve executive

compensation is purely advisory and non-binding, the Board of Directors values the opinions of our stockholders and will

consider the results of the vote in determining the compensation of the NEOs and the Company's compensation

programs generally. The vote is not intended to address any specific item of compensation but rather the overall

compensation of our NEOs and the policies and practices described in this proxy statement. If any stockholder wishes to

communicate with the Board of Directors regarding executive compensation, the Board of Directors can be contacted

using the procedures outlined in the section titled "Communications with the Board of Directors" set forth in this proxy

statement.

Accordingly, we are asking for stockholder approval, on an advisory basis, of the following resolution:

"RESOLVED, that the compensation of the Company's NEOs, as disclosed pursuant to Item 402 of Regulation S-K,

including the "Compensation Discussion and Analysis," the compensation tables and the narrative discussion

associated with the compensation tables in the Company's proxy statement for its 2026 Annual Meeting, is hereby

APPROVED."

The proposal must be approved by the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares of our Common Stock and Class B

Common Stock, voting together as a single class, present in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote

on the matter. Abstentions will have the effect of voting "against" the proposal. Brokers do not have discretion to vote

any uninstructed shares over the advisory vote to approve the compensation of our NEOs.

Because the required vote is advisory, it will not be binding on the Board. The Compensation Committee will, however,

take into account the outcome of the vote when considering future executive compensation decisions.

We currently provide our stockholders with this advisory vote to approve executive compensation on an annual basis. We

expect that the next such vote will occur at the 2027 annual meeting of stockholders.

**The Board of Directors recommends that the stockholders vote <u>FOR</u> the approval of, on an advisory basis, Proposal 2** 

**and the compensation paid by the Company to the NEOs as disclosed in this proxy statement.**

**PROPOSAL 3— RATIFICATION OF APPOINTMENT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM**<br>

**PROPOSAL 3**<br>**Ratification of Appointment of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm**<br>The Board of Directors recommends that the stockholders vote **<u>FOR</u>** such ratification.<br>

The Audit Committee has appointed PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP to be the Company's independent registered public

accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026. PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP has served as the Company's

or its predecessors' independent registered public accounting firm since fiscal year 2010 and is considered by the Audit

Committee and the Board of Directors to be well qualified. Representatives of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP are expected

to be present at the Annual Meeting. Such representatives will have the opportunity to make a statement if they desire to

do so and will be available to respond to appropriate questions.

This Proposal 3 must be approved by the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares of our Common Stock and Class B

Common Stock, voting together as a single class, present in person or by proxy at the 2026 Annual Meeting and entitled

to vote on the matter. Abstentions will have the effect of voting "against" this Proposal 3. Brokers have discretion to vote

any uninstructed shares over the ratification of appointment of accountants.

While stockholder ratification of the selection of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP is not required by the Company's Bylaws or

other governing documents or law and is not binding on the Audit Committee, the Board is submitting the selection of

PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP to our stockholders for ratification as the Board believes it is a matter of good corporate

governance. If stockholders fail to ratify the selection, the Audit Committee will reconsider whether to retain

PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP but may choose to continue the engagement. Even if the selection is ratified, the Audit

Committee in its discretion may direct the selection of a different independent registered public accounting firm at any

time during the year if it determines that such a change would be in the best interests of the Company and our

stockholders.

**The Board of Directors recommends that the stockholders vote <u>FOR</u> the approval of Proposal 3 and the ratification of** 

**PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP to be the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year** 

**ending December 31, 2026.**

(11)A total of 2,947,342 shares of Common Stock and 2,847,299 options to purchase Common Stock are held indirectly by Sweet Yourself LLC, of which

Mr. Young is the manager and sole member. Following Mr. Young's retirement from the Company, he is no longer subject to reporting

requirements pursuant to Section 16 of the Exchange Act. As a result, we cannot independently verify this information, which is based on the most

recent data we have available as of February 2026.

As of October 3, 2019, certain investment funds directly or indirectly managed by Apollo (the "Apollo Funds") informed

the Company that they had pledged all of their shares of the Company's Common Stock pursuant to a margin loan

agreement and related documentation, as thereafter amended from time to time, on a non-recourse basis (the "Margin

Loan"). Apollo has informed the Company that the Margin Loan was fully repaid and terminated as of June 2025, and

that, as of such date, none of the Apollo Funds' shares of the Company's Common Stock remained pledged as collateral

under the Margin Loan.

Certain members of the Company's executive team and certain employees of the Company were entitled to receive their

share of the Margin Loan proceeds (based on their share ownership of the Apollo Funds) at such times as Apollo received

its proceeds. Such persons had the option to either (a) receive such proceeds as distributed or (b) defer receipt of such

proceeds until their attributable share of the obligations under the Margin Loan had been satisfied in full. Following the

full repayment of the Margin Loan, any deferred proceeds were released, and no proceeds remain subject to recall.

The Company has not independently verified the foregoing disclosure. When the Margin Loan agreement was entered

into, and as requested when amended, the Company delivered customary letter agreements to the secured parties in

which it agreed, among other things and subject to applicable law and stock exchange rules, not to take any actions that

were intended to hinder or delay the exercise of any remedies by the secured parties under the Margin Loan. Such letter

agreements are no longer operative following the termination of the Margin Loan. Except for the foregoing, the Company

was not a party to the Margin Loan and did not have, and does not have, any obligations thereunder.

**Units of TopCo Parent**

The equity interests of TopCo Parent consist of Class A-1 Units and Class A-2 Units. Certain investment funds directly or

indirectly managed by Apollo beneficially own 100% of the 346,416,667 issued and outstanding Class A-1 Units of TopCo

**SECTION 16(A) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE**<br>

**DELINQUENT SECTION 16(A) REPORTS**

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires the Company's executive officers, directors, and persons who own more than

10% of a registered class of the Company's equity securities (the "10% Stockholders") to file reports of ownership and

changes of ownership with the SEC. The Company may assist its directors, officers and certain 10% Stockholders in the

completion of such Section 16 reports and in filing these reports on their behalf. To our knowledge, based solely on a

review of the copies of such reports furnished to us and written representations that no other reports were required, the

Company believes that, during fiscal year 2025, all filing requirements applicable to executive officers, directors and 10%

Stockholders were complied with in a timely manner, except that a late amendment to a timely filed Form 4 was filed for

Mr. Fawad Ahmad on May 13, 2025 to correct a scrivener's error which inadvertently excluded unvested employee stock

options granted to Mr. Ahmad on May 1, 2025 and which vest annually in three equal increments beginning on May 1,

2026. This amendment was filed as soon as the error was identified.

**SOME QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE REGARDING THIS PROXY STATEMENT**<br>

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **Q:** | **What is a quorum?** |
| **A:** | For the purposes of the Annual Meeting, a "quorum" is a majority in voting power of the combined outstanding shares of <br>Common Stock and Class B Common Stock owned by stockholders on the record date entitled to vote at the meeting, <br>represented in person or by proxy. Broker non-votes (as further described below) and abstentions are counted for purposes of <br>determining whether a quorum is present.<br>|
| **Q:** | **What is broker "discretionary" voting?** |
| **A:** | Under the rules of the NYSE, brokers who have transmitted proxy materials to customers may vote the shares of customers who <br>fail to provide voting instructions on "routine matters," but not on "non-routine matters." When a broker's customer does not <br>provide the broker with voting instructions on non-routine matters, the broker cannot vote on those matters and instead reports <br>the number of such shares as broker "non-votes." Broker non-votes are counted as present for the purpose of determining the <br>presence of a quorum for the transaction of business, but they are not counted as shares voting. Thus, broker non-votes can <br>have the effect of preventing approval of certain proposals where the number of affirmative votes, although a majority of the <br>votes cast, does not constitute a majority of the voting power present.<br>Non-routine matters include the election of directors (Proposal 1) and the advisory vote to approve the compensation of the <br>Company's NEOs (Proposal 2) (say on pay). Therefore, if you hold your shares in street name through a broker, you must cast <br>your vote if you want it to count in respect of these non-routine matters. The ratification of the appointment of the Company's <br>independent registered public accounting firm is a routine matter, so brokers will have discretion to vote any uninstructed <br>shares on that proposal (Proposal 3).<br>|
| **Q:** | **How are matters presented at the Annual Meeting approved?** |
| **A:** | Directors are elected by a plurality of the votes cast by our Common Stockholders at the Annual Meeting (Proposal 1). Class B <br>Common Stockholders are not entitled to vote on the election of directors.<br>The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of voting power of the shares of Common Stock and Class B Common Stock, <br>voting together as a single class, present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote on the matter is needed to <br>approve the proposals to: (i) approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of the Company's NEOs (Proposal 2), and (ii) ratify <br>the appointment of PwC as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December <br>31, 2026 (Proposal 3).<br>With respect to all of the aforementioned proposals, abstentions and broker non-votes will be counted as present for purposes <br>of establishing a quorum.<br>Broker non-votes will have no effect on the election of directors (Proposal 1). Abstentions will have the effect of votes "against" <br>and broker non-votes will have no effect on the proposal to approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of the Company's <br>NEOs (Proposal 2). Abstentions will have the effect of votes "against" the proposal to ratify the appointment of PwC as the <br>Company's independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026 (Proposal 3). Because <br>the ratification of the appointment of PwC as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm is a routine matter, <br>brokers have discretion to vote uninstructed shares on Proposal 3, so we do not expect broker non-votes on Proposal 3.<br>|
| **Q:** | **May I vote confidentially?** |
| **A:** | Yes. Our policy is to keep your vote confidential, except as otherwise legally required, to allow for the tabulation and <br>certification of votes and to facilitate proxy solicitation.<br>|
| **Q:** | **Who will count the votes?** |
| **A:** | A representative of Broadridge will count the votes and act as the inspector of election for the Annual Meeting. |
| **Q:** | **What if additional matters are presented at the Annual Meeting?** |
| **A:** | We do not know of any business to be considered at the Annual Meeting other than the proposals described in this proxy <br>statement. If any other business is presented at the Annual Meeting, your properly executed proxy gives authority to David <br>Smail, our Executive Vice President, Chief Legal Officer and Secretary, and to Jeffrey Likosar, our President, Corporate <br>Development and Transformation, and Chief Financial Officer, to vote on such matters at their discretion.<br>|
| **Q:** | **Where can I find the voting results from the Annual Meeting?** |
| **A:** | We will announce preliminary voting results at the Annual Meeting and will publish final results in a Current Report on Form 8-K <br>that we will file with the SEC after the date of the Annual Meeting.<br>|
