MESSAGE FROM OUR CEO

To Our Stockholders:

        NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that theMy Fellow Stockholders,

It is our pleasure to invite you to our 2022 Annual Meeting of Stockholders at 6:00 p.m. Central Time on Monday, May 23, 2022 at The Peabody Memphis Hotel, 149 Union Avenue, Memphis, Tennessee 38103. We value your prompt vote on the matters set forth in this proxy statement.
During 2021, we continued to solidify our business model as a company solely focused on pest management services. We made key long-term investments in digital marketing, staffing levels, multi-unit leadership, pricing sophistication and termite damage claims management. We also delivered key milestones on two initiatives designed to drive future profitable growth. The Terminix Way is a sustainable, repeatable operating model to standardize our work. Our Customer Experience Platform, or CxP, helps simplify how our frontline interacts with customers. Despite these major investments in the future, we delivered on our promises to stockholders by accelerating our organic growth rates by two percentage points and expanding our Adjusted EBITDA margins by more than 130 basis points in 2021 versus 2020.
We also made significant progress on our commitments to the environment, teammates, communities and customers in 2021, as detailed in our most recent Corporate Sustainability Report. To name just a few examples: We converted more than 400 of ServiceMaster Global Holdings, Inc.our sales vehicles—3.8 percent of our fleet—from gasoline-powered to hybrid, reducing our carbon emissions by an estimated 1.6 million pounds. Goals and a plan driven by our Executive Safety Committee reduced lost workdays by 38 percent last year. In late 2021, we enhanced our residential safety protocols with a pre-service hazard assessment to better safeguard customer and teammate safety, leading to a 35 percent reduction in recordable injuries in the first eight weeks of the program.
As I reflect on a successful year, I am encouraged by the opportunities ahead. Our team’s hard work and dedication creates a strong foundation for continued robust performance. Our strategic priorities remain focused on improving the teammate experience and driving better teammate retention through the deployment of standard operating procedures and training curriculums, and enhancing the customer acquisition process, penetration and retention, and expanding our profit margin.
In addition to these foundational improvements, I am excited about the prospects of our proposed transformational combination with Rentokil Initial plc, which would create the world’s largest pest management provider and deliver opportunities for our teammates, our customers and our investors alike.
We value your ongoing support and pledge to continue working hard to return value to our stockholders in 2022. We encourage you to take part in our Annual Meeting on May 23, but regardless of whether or not you attend, we encourage you to promptly vote your shares.

PROXY STATEMENT
PROXY SUMMARY
KEY COMPENSATION HIGHLIGHTS
Our Compensation Philosophy
Our executive compensation program is designed to:
Attract and retain highly motivated, qualified and experienced executives
Focus the attention of the NEOs on the strategic, operational and financial performance of the Company
Encourage the NEOs to meet long-term performance objectives and increase stockholder value
To do so, the Compensation Committee uses a combination of near- and long-term incentive compensation to motivate and reward executives who have the ability to significantly influence our long-term financial success and who are responsible for effectively managing our operations in a way that maximizes stockholder value.
A significant portion of our executives’ target compensation is performance-based as exemplified in the below charts which illustrate the individual pay components.
[MISSING IMAGE: tm223409d1-pc_ceoneopn.jpg]
HUMAN CAPITAL MANAGEMENT
Terminix employs approximately 10,000 teammates in the United States and 1,700 teammates outside the United States in Europe, Canada and Central America. As a leader in the pest management industry, we recognize that our teammates are our most important asset in the delivery of the proxy holders, either FOR or AGAINST, any other matter or business that may properly come beforeservices we provide to customers. Since we deliver services in various communities around the Annual Meeting.

        As of the date hereof, our board of directorsworld, it is not aware of any other such matter or business to be transacted at our Annual Meeting. If other matters requiring a vote of the stockholders arise, the persons designated as proxies will vote the shares of common stock of the Company, par value $0.01 per share, represented by the proxies in accordance with their judgment on those matters.

Who is entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting?

        The record date for stockholders entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Annual Meeting is March 7, 2019. At the close of business on that date, we had 136,057,181 shares of common stock outstanding and entitled to be voted at the Annual Meeting held by two stockholders of record and approximately 34,000 beneficial stockholders. A quorum is required for our stockholders to conduct business at the Annual Meeting. The presence in person or by proxy of the holders of record of a majority of the shares of common stock entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting is necessary to constitute a quorum at the Annual Meeting. Each outstanding share of common stock is entitled to one vote. Dissenters' rights are not applicable to any of the matters being voted upon at the Annual Meeting.

        By granting a proxy, you authorize the persons named in the proxy to represent you and vote your shares at the Annual Meeting. Those persons will also be authorized to vote your shares to adjourn the Annual Meeting from time to time and to vote your shares at any adjournments or postponements of the Annual Meeting.

        Registered Stockholders.    If your shares are registered directly in your name with our transfer agent, Computershare Trust Company, N.A. ("Computershare"), you are considered the stockholder of record with respect to those shares, and the proxy materials were provided to you directly by us. As a stockholder of record, you have the right to grant your voting proxy directly to the individuals listed on the proxy card in one of the manners listed on the proxy card or to vote in person at the Annual Meeting.

        Beneficial Stockholders.    If your shares are held in a stock brokerage account or by a broker, bank, trustee or other nominee, you are considered the beneficial owner of shares held in "street name," and the proxy materials were forwarded to you by your broker, bank, trustee or other nominee, who is considered, with respect to those shares, the stockholder of record. As the beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your broker, bank, trustee or other nominee how to vote your shares using the methods prescribed by your broker, bank, trustee or other nominee on the voting instruction card you received with the proxy materials. Beneficial owners are also invited to attend the Annual Meeting. However, since you are not the stockholder of record, you may not vote your shares in person at the Annual Meeting unless you follow your broker's, bank's, trustee's or other nominee's procedures for obtaining a legal proxy.

What votes are required to approve each of the proposals?

        Proposal 1, the nominees for Class II director will be elected by a majority of the votes cast with respect to such director nominee's election. On October 28, 2016, the board of directors amended and restated the Company's by-laws to provide for the election of directors by a majority of the votes cast, except in the case of contested elections. The "majority of votes cast" means that the number of shares voted "for" a director nominee must exceed the number of votes cast "against" that director nominee's election. In accordance with our amended and restated by-laws, stockholders do not have the right to cumulate their votes for the election of directors.


Table of Contents

        Proposal 2, the non-binding advisory vote approving executive compensation, will be determined by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote. As an advisory vote, this proposal is not binding. However, our board of directors and Compensation Committee will consider the outcome of the vote when making future compensation decisions for our executive officers.

        Proposal 3, the ratification of the selection of Deloitte as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2019, will be determined by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote. The Audit Committee has sole and direct responsibility for the appointment, retention, termination, compensation, evaluation and oversight of the work of any independent registered public accounting firm engaged by the Company. The Audit Committee has already appointed Deloitte as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2019. In the event of a negative vote on the ratification, the Audit Committee may reconsider its appointment of Deloitte for 2019; however, the Audit Committee will consider the outcome of the vote when making appointments of our independent registered public accounting firm in future years. Even if the appointment is ratified, the Audit Committee, in its discretion, may direct the appointment of a different independent registered public accounting firm at any time during the year if the Audit Committee determines that such a change would be in the Company's and the stockholders' best interests.

How are broker non-votes and abstentions counted?

        The presence of a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting, either in person or by proxy, will constitute a quorum. Shares of common stock represented by proxies at the meeting, including broker non-votes and those that are marked "ABSTAIN" will be counted as shares present for purposes of establishing a quorum. Brokers or nominees holding shares for a beneficial owner may only vote on routine matters on behalf of a beneficial owner that does not provide voting instructions for their shares. A broker non-vote occurs when a broker or nominee holding shares for a beneficial owner has not received instructions from the beneficial owner and, therefore, does not vote on a non-routine matter. Because broker non-votes are not voted affirmatively or negatively, they will have no effect on the approval of any of the proposals, except where brokers may exercise their discretion on routine matters. Abstention and broker non-votes shall not be counted as votes cast with respect to a director nominee's election in Proposal 1. As to Proposals 2 and 3, shares represented by proxies that are marked "ABSTAIN" will have the effect of a vote against the proposal, while a broker non-vote will not have an effect on the outcome of any proposal other than Proposal 3. Only the ratification of the selection of Deloitte as our independent registered public accounting firm in Proposal 3 is considered a routine matter. Your broker will therefore not have discretion to vote on the "non-routine" matters set forth in Proposals 1 and 2 absent direction from you. It is, therefore, important that you vote your shares.

        Following certification of the stockholder vote in an uncontested election, any incumbent director who did not receive a majority of the votes cast for his or her election shall promptly tender his or her resignation, contingent upon acceptance of such resignation by the board,safe, inclusive, and equitable workplace that attracts and retains exceptional talent, enabling us to the Chairman of the board. The Chairman of the board shall inform the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of such tender of resignation, and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee shall consider such resignation and recommend to the board of directors whether to accept the tendered resignation or reject it or whether any other action should be taken. In deciding upon its recommendation, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee shall consider all relevant

factors, including without limitation the qualifications of the director who has tendered his or her resignation and the director's contribution to the Company and the board. The board will act on the recommendation of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee no later than 90 days after the certification of the stockholder vote and disclose the decision by filing a Form 8-K with the SEC. The board shall consider the factors considered by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and such additional information and factors that the board deems relevant.

Can I vote in person at the Annual Meeting?

        For stockholders with shares registered in the name of a brokerage firm or bank or other similar organization, you will need to obtain a legal proxy from the broker, bank, trustee or other nominee that holds your shares before you can vote your shares in person at the Annual Meeting. For stockholders with shares registered directly in their names with Computershare, you may vote your shares in person at the Annual Meeting.

Can I vote by telephone or Internet?

        Stockholders of record with shares registered directly in their names with Computershare will be able to vote using the telephone and Internet. For beneficial stockholders with shares registered in the name of a broker, bank, trustee or other nominee, a number of brokerage firms and banks are participating in a program that offers telephone and Internet voting options. Stockholders should refer to the voting instruction card provided by their broker, bank, trustee or other nominee for instructions on the voting methods they offer. If your shares are held in an account at a broker, bank, trustee or other nominee participating in this program or registered directly in your name with Computershare, you may vote those shares by calling the telephone number specified on your proxy or accessing the Internet website address specified on your proxy instead of completing and signing the proxy itself. The giving of such a telephonic or Internet proxy will not affect your right to vote in person should you decide to attend the Annual Meeting. The telephone and Internet voting procedures are designed to authenticate stockholders' identities, to allow stockholders to give their voting instructions and to confirm that stockholders' instructions have been recorded properly.

        The proxy accompanying this proxy statement is solicited on behalf of our board of directors for use at the Annual Meeting.

All signed, returned proxies that are not revoked will be voted in accordance with the instructions contained therein.

        Proxies will be voted as specified by the stockholders. Unless contrary instructions are specified by the stockholder on the proxy card, if the accompanying proxy card is executed and returned (and not

A stockholder's submission of a signed proxy will not affect his or her right to attend and to vote in person at the Annual Meeting.

How do I change or revoke my proxy?

        Any person signing a proxy in the form accompanying this proxy statement has the power to revoke it prior to the Annual Meeting or at the Annual Meeting prior to the vote pursuant to the proxy. A proxy may be revoked by a writing delivered to us stating that the proxy is revoked, by a subsequent proxy that is signed by the person who signed the earlier proxy and is delivered before or at the Annual Meeting, by voting again on a later date on the Internet or by telephone (only your latest Internet or telephone proxy submitted prior to the Annual Meeting will be counted) or by attendance at the Annual Meeting and voting in person. Please note, however, that if a stockholder's shares are held of record by a broker, bank, trustee or other nominee and that stockholder wishes to vote in person at the Annual Meeting, the stockholder must bring a legal proxy to the Annual Meeting.

Who will count and certify the votes?

("Broadridge") and the staff of our corporate secretary and investor relations offices will count the votes and certify the election results. The results will be publicly filed with the SEC on a Form 8-K within four business days after the Annual Meeting.

    Stock Ownership Guidelines for DirectorsSTOCK OWNERSHIP GUIDELINES FOR DIRECTORS

    The board of directors has adopted stock ownership guidelines for members of the board of directors and for executive officers of the Company. The board believes that setting these ownership guidelines will enhance directors'directors’ and executive officers'officers’ alignment with other stockholders. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee reviews the director ownership levels and the Compensation Committee reviews director andthe executive officer stock ownership levels on an annual basis. The guidelines for executive officers are discussed below in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis.

    Members of the board of directors are expected to hold stock valued at five times the annual cash retainer. The annual cash retainer is $80,000,$90,000, resulting in a current expectation to hold stock valued at $400,000.$450,000. Directors will have a period of five years from February 2015 or their appointment to the board whichever is later, to meet the ownership guidelines. Until a director meets his or her stock ownership guideline level, he or she cannot sell more than 50 percent of the shares such director owns. All directors subject to the stock ownership guidelineshave either met, or are on track to meet, their stock ownership level within the applicable five-year period.

    CERTAIN SECURITIES TRANSACTIONS
    Short Selling

            Our board of directors has adopted a policy that prohibits our directors, executive officers and all other employees from short sales and transactions in puts and calls of the Company's securities. Short sales of securities of the Company evidence an expectation on the part of the seller that such securities will decline in value and signal to the market an absence of confidence in the short-term prospects of the Company. Short sales may also reduce the seller's incentive to improve the performance of the Company.

    Pledges and Hedges

            In addition, the adopted policy prohibits any of our directors, executive officers and all other employees from engaging in hedging transactions in the Company's securities. Certain forms of hedging or monetization transactions (such as zero-cost collars and forward sale contracts) allow a person to lock in much of the value of his or her stock holdings, often in exchange for all or part of the potential appreciation in the stock. These transactions allow the person to continue to own the stock, but without the full risks and rewards of ownership. When that occurs, the person may no longer have the same objectives as the Company's other stockholders.

    Highlights

      Company Structure

      The Company completed a successful spin-off of Frontdoor as a separate, publicly traded company on October 1, 2018.

      We launched an independent Terminix Commercial business and acquired companies, including Copesan and Cooper giving the Company a stronger presence in the commercial, urban and national accounts markets.

      The Franchise Services Group was renamed ServiceMaster Brands, reflecting an enhanced focus on potential and growth.

      The Company's transformation office has facilitated the partnership with salesforce.com to implement a new operating system platform. This partnership is expected to improve customer experience, empower frontline employees and deliver significant growth.

      Business Performance

      The financial performance of the Company demonstrated improvement over the prior year Adjusted EBITDA and revenue. However, financial performance in 2018 did not fully meet target objectives for Adjusted EBITDA in the Annual Incentive Plan.

      EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
      Management Structure

      Changes were made to our leadership structure during 2018. Mr. Tibbens was hired in May 2018 to lead AHS as it was being spun-off into a separate, publicly traded company. Mr. Stevenson previously led the Terminix business, but as the Company launched and separated the residential and commercial customer focus. Mr. Stevenson is now primarily focused on the growth and service capabilities of Terminix Residential. Other executive appointments included the hiring of Messers. Bisignano as Senior Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary and Dart as Senior Vice President, Human Resources. Messrs. Dastidar, Persson and Stevenson were designated as executive officers in 2018.

      Compensation Decisions

      Base salaries of the NEOs were increased on a selective basis. In 2018, adjustments were made to salaries for Mr. DiLucente (3.5 percent increase) to better align his salary with internal peers and external benchmarks, Mr. Persson (12.5 percent increase) to recognize his significant role in the spin-off of Frontdoor and his ongoing role with the strategic focus and merger and acquisition activities of the Company, and Mr. Stevenson (20 percent increase) to reflect his leadership of the Company's largest business and to better align his salary with internal peers.

      The Compensation Committee reviewed the target bonus opportunities for each of the NEOs and made no changes during 2018.

      Long-term incentive ("LTI") awards were granted to NEOs comprised of nonqualified stock options and restricted stock units ("RSUs") in 2018 with approximately equal grant date values. For 2018,2021, the Compensation Committee decided to replace Performance Share Units ("PSUs") with RSUs on a one-year basis due tomade the complexities in determining longer term financial goals within the context of the spin-off of AHS. Annual LTI grants approved during 2018 were consistent with target levels and prior year awards. The Compensation Committee has returned to the use of PSUs as part of the 2019 LTI Program.following compensation decisions:

    Annual cash incentive, which is intended to motivate each executive to achieve near-term Company (and, where applicable, business unit) performance goals while contributing to the attainment of long-term business objectives;

    One-time awards (either cash or equity) for retention, promotion or extraordinary performance purposes from time to time;

    Long-term equity incentives, which are intended to align executives' incentives with stockholder interests;

    For 2018, LTI was delivered through a mix of stock options and RSUs due to the complexities related to the spin-off of AHS;

    For 2019, LTI was delivered through a mix of stock options, RSUs and PSUs as described in the Long-Term Equity Awards section later in this document; and

    Employee benefits, including retirement benefits, health and welfare benefits, perquisites, new hire bonuses and relocation benefits, which are intended to attract and retain qualified executives by ensuring that our benefit programs are competitive.

    The Compensation Committee determined a target mix of compensation delivered through the three core elements of base salary, annual cash incentive and LTI awards described above based on competitive market data and internal equity, ensuring that the total compensation is heavily weighted to performance-based elements.

    Determination of Executive Compensation

    Pay Decision Process

            The role of our Compensation Committee is to assist our board of directors in the discharge of its responsibilities relating to our executive compensation program. Our Compensation Committee is responsible for establishing, administering and monitoring our policies governing the compensation for our executive officers, including determining base salaries and near-term and LTI awards.

            The Compensation Committee determines the CEO's compensation and discusses the approved compensation with the board of directors. Historically, in determining the CEO's compensation, the Compensation Committee has considered the following factors: (1) our operating and financial performance, (2) the competitive market data provided by Semler Brossy, our external compensation consultant, as presented to the Compensation Committee by our Senior Vice President, Human Resources in collaboration with Semler Brossy, (3) the assessment by the Compensation Committee of the CEO's individual performance with subsequent discussion with the full board of directors and (4) prevailing economic conditions.

    We believe that our executive compensation program must be attractive to compete in the market for executive talent and must support our growth strategy. As a result of this focus, we rely on competitive pay practices and individual and business performance in determining the compensation of our executives. In making these compensation determinations, we also consider historical individual compensation levels and historical company payout levels for annual cash incentives. The executive compensation program and underlying philosophy are reviewed at least annually by our Compensation Committee to determine what, if any, modifications should be considered.

    Compensation Consultant Independence
    The Compensation Committee has the authority to retain compensation consultants, outside counsel and other advisers. During 2021, the committee engaged Pearl Meyer to advise it on executive compensation program-design matters and to prepare market studies of the competitiveness of components of the company’s compensation program for its senior executive officers, including the named executive officers, and non-employee directors. Pearl Meyer is a global professional services company. The Compensation Committee performed an assessment of Pearl Meyer’s independence to determine whether the consultant is independent, taking into account executive compensation consulting protocols from Pearl Meyer to ensure consultant independence and other relevant factors. Based on that assessment, the Compensation Committee determined that Pearl Meyer’s work has not raised any conflict of interest and the firm is independent.
    Compensation Risk Assessment

            Management has assessed

    Pearl Meyer was engaged to assess the Company'sCompany’s compensation plans and practices to evaluate whether they create risks that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company. BasedPearl Meyer’s assessment of our compensations plans and programs was reviewed with the Compensation Committee and, based on its assessment, managementthe Compensation Committee has concluded that the Company'sCompany’s compensation policies and practices do not create incentives to take risks that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company. We believe we have allocated our compensation among base salary, near-term incentives and LTI awards in such a way as to not encourage excessive risk taking. Management's assessment of the plans was reviewed with the Compensation Committee.

    Clawback Policy

    The board of directors has approved and implemented a clawback policy that provides the Compensation Committee with the discretion to claw back performance-based compensation in the event of a restatement of Company financial statements or misconduct. This policy was approved in February 2016 and became effective on a prospective basis.

    Stock Ownership Guidelines for Executive Officers

    The board of directors has adopted stock ownership guidelines for executive officers of the Company. The board believes that setting these ownership guidelines will enhance our executive officers'


    Table of Contents

    officers’ alignment with other stockholders. The Compensation Committee will reviewreviews executive officer stock ownership levels on an annual basis.

    The ownership guidelines for executive officers are based on a multiple of annual base salary, with the CEO expected to own stock valued at six times his annual salary and other executive officers expected to own stock valued at three times their respective annual salaries. Until an executive officer meets these stock ownership guidelines, each executive officer is required to retain 50 percent of the shares obtained, net of the strike price and taxes, upon the exercise of stock options and vestings of other equity awards that are granted on or after February 18, 2018. Shares included in the ownership guideline calculation include shares owned by the executive, unvested RSUs and 25 percent of the in-the-money value of vested options.

    Say-on-Pay

    The Compensation Committee considers the advisory vote from stockholders on executive compensation as an important input into the determination of the compensation program structure. The approval of the executive compensation program by more than 9596 percent of the votes cast by stockholders in 20182021 provides a further endorsement of our executive compensation program. The most significant change to the compensation structure during 2018 was the grant of RSUs, rather than PSUs, due to the complexities in determining longer-term financial goals within the context of the spin-off and financial separation of AHS. The annual grant of these LTI awards enables the Company to deliver compensation that is competitive with the external market, while aligning executives' interests with those of our stockholders. The Compensation Committee will continue to consider stockholder feedback as part of its decision-making process consistent with the Company'sCompany’s pay-for-performance philosophy.

    Annual Incentive Plan

    The Company administers the Annual Incentive Plan ("AIP"),AIP, our annual cash incentive program, which is designed to reward the achievement of specific pre-set financial results measured over one fiscal year (or, as applicable, a portion of a fiscal year) subject to the maximum amounts derived under the Executive Annual Bonus Plan ("EABP"). Stockholders of the Company approved the EABP at the 2015 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, providing for a maximum bonus that can be paid to any executive officer equal to one percent of Adjusted EBITDA. The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 eliminated deductions under Section 162(m) of the Code rendering the EABP ineffective for its intended purpose. Although in place for the 2018 fiscal year, the Compensation Committee terminated the EABP effective as of February 18, 2019. For 2018,2021, the AIP was measured over the 20182021 calendar year results. Each participant was assigned an annual incentive target expressed as a percentage of base salary. For the NEOs, these targets ranged from 60 percent of base salary to 100 percent of base salary. The specific target bonus for each NEO is listed in the table below:

    Performance Measures

    To encourage our executive officers to focus on near-term Company (and, where applicable, business unit) goals and financial performance, incentives under the AIP are based on our performance with respect to the following measures and an individual performance evaluation, as determined by the Compensation Committee, at both a corporate consolidated and, where applicable, a business unit level:


    Revenue;

    Adjusted EBITDA;

    Revenue; and


    Customer count as measured by the change in the total customer count for Terminix, improvement in the customer count for AHSretention (Residential and the Net Promoter Score for Merry Maids. The measure for the corporate customer count is a revenue-weighted average of the business unit customer count measures.

    Commercial).

    Revenue and Adjusted EBITDA and revenue achievement metrics are discussed above on page 20.

    above.

    The performance measures above were selected as the most appropriate measures upon which to determine annual bonuses, because theythese are the primary metrics that management believes build value in the Company. Additionally, these measures were selected to incentivize profitable growth, with a focus on enhancing the customer experience as measured by customer retention rate. All of the opportunity for payment under the AIP to our NEOs is based on these performance measures and individual performance.

    Payments under the AIP were also subject to the achievement of a minimum level of performance on the Adjusted EBITDA financial measure ("(“Adjusted EBITDA Threshold"Threshold”). In order to earn any payment under the AIP, the Adjusted EBITDA Threshold had to be achieved at the corporate consolidated or, where applicable, business unit levels.level. The Adjusted EBITDA Threshold was exceeded by the Corporate organization, Terminix and ServiceMaster Brands, but was not met by AHS. Stockholders of the Company approved the EABP at the 2015 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, providing for a maximum bonus that can be paid to any executive officer equal to one percent of Adjusted EBITDA. As noted above, due to changes in the tax law the company has terminated the EABP. The corporate consolidated Adjusted EBITDA Threshold and business unit Adjusted EBITDA Thresholds applicable to the NEOs are set forth in the table below:

    PROXY STATEMENT
    The "%“% of Target Performance for Threshold Payout"Payout” is equal to threshold performance (which is generally equal to the prior year'syear’s actual performance) divided by the current year'syear’s target goal. The payout levels for performance between threshold and target are generally based on a 6:1 ratio—for every one percent of achievement above threshold performance levels, the plan pays out six additional percentage points of the targeted payout. The payout levels for performance above target to maximum are generally based on a 10:1 ratio—for every one percent of achievement above threshold performance levels, the plan pays out ten additional percentage points of the targeted payout. We believe the 10:1 ratio to be an effective motivator to provide significant rewards for exceptional performance. The customer count metric is measured and rewarded using a different scale than the 10:1 ratio. The customer count metric is based on the basis point change year over year as defined in the annual operating plan. Threshold is set at 25 percent of the target change and will determine a payout of 25 percent of that portion of the total payout. The scale increases to a 100 percent payout at target and 150 percent at the stretch target, with interpolation between achievement and payout levels. The 20182021 AIP target payout opportunity for each participating NEO was based on our review of Peer Group and survey data and the importance of the NEO'sNEO’s position relative to our overall financial success.

    Mr. Varty's annual incentive payment was below the calculated funding level as the Company fell short of internal financial goals. The Compensation Committee exercised its discretion and reduced the funding level for Corporate organizations to 89 percent of target levels from the calculated 94 percent achievement due to the adjustment for area wide events (hurricanes and large area disasters) as well as the underperformance of AHS for the first three quarters of the year. Consequently, the Compensation Committee determined Mr. Varty's annual incentive to be paid in line with the Corporate funding level.

    (2)
    Mr. DiLucente's annual incentive payment exceeded the calculated payout level as the Compensation Committee determined, based upon the CEO's recommendation, that his leadership and contributions focused on the spin-off of AHS and the internal streamlining of the Finance function, along with the CEO's evaluation of his individual performance, merited a higher level of payment.

    (3)
    Mr. Persson's annual incentive payment exceeded the calculated amount as the Compensation Committee determined, based upon the CEO's recommendation, that his leadership of the activities related to the spin-off of AHS, his role in developing the Company's strategy and his leadership in executing the Company's acquisition strategy, along with the CEO's evaluation of his individual performance, merited a higher level of annual incentive.

    Mr. Stevenson's annual incentive payment exceeded the calculated amount as the Compensation Committee determined, based upon the CEO's recommendation, that the structural changes, streamlining of service delivery and heightened focus on the customer experience set the framework for improved performance, both near-term and longer-term at Terminix, along with the CEO's evaluation of his individual performance, merited a higher level of annual incentive.

    The annual incentive funding level (116 percent) for the ServiceMaster Brands business was reduced from the calculated achievement level (150 percent) as the Compensation Committee exercised its discretion and reduced the funding level due to the adjustment for area wide events (hurricanes and large area disasters). Ms. Wegner's annual incentive payment was reduced based on the CEO's evaluation of her individual performance; however, her overall pyament was still above her target level.

    Mr. Tibbens' annual bonus payment for 2018 performance was guaranteed at his target bonus percent of 100 percent of base salary, prorated from his hire date of May 15, 2018 through September 30, 2018, the date prior to the spin-off of AHS. His prorated salary paid for the period from his hire on May 15, 2018 through September 30, 2018 was $300,000.

    Long-Term Equity Awards

    Our long-term equity incentive plans are designed to retain key executives and to align the interests of our executives with the achievement of sustainable long-term growth and performance. For 2018,2021, to provide a long-term incentive component to the pay mix of executive officers, the Compensation Committee approved LTI awards comprised of bothPSUs, stock options and RSUs with each award having an equivalent grant date value (50 percent of total grant value delivered through stock options and 50 percent delivered through RSUs). Prior to 2018, the Company used an equity mix of 50 percent options and 50 percent PSUs. For 2018, the Compensation Committee decided to replace PSUs with RSUs on a one-time basis due to the complexities in determining longer term financial goals given the projected spin-off of AHS later in 2018. In 2019, the Compensation Committee returned to 50 percent PSUs combined with 30 percent options and 20 percent RSUs.

    [MISSING IMAGE: tm223409d1-pc_phone4c.jpg]
    The Compensation Committee periodically reviews the equity holdings of executive officers of the Company to ensure there are appropriate levels of ownership and incentive and retention value. The Compensation Committee also reviews competitive market practice regarding the awarding of LTI awards and, following its 2021 assessment during 2018 of our executives'executives’ stock holdings and future long-term incentive opportunity, the Compensation Committee approved a LTI strategy and subsequently approved awards for the NEOs. The 20182021 equity awards are comprised of bothPSUs, stock options and RSUs, with equivalent grant date value.values equal to 50 percent for PSUs, 30 percent for stock options and 20 percent for RSUs. The specific size and value of the awards are detailed in the Summary Compensation and the Grants of Plan Based Award tables below. The Compensation Committee approved a RSU award in October 2018 to Mr. Persson to recognize his efforts leading activities

            On the October 1, 2018 effective date of the spin-off of AHS, LTI awards were adjusted to reflect the spin-off of AHS. All stock option grants were adjusted and concentrated in the company of employment immediately post-spin. Both the number of options and the exercise price, were adjusted to provide equivalent in-the-money value post-spin as existed immediately pre-spin. Holders of outstanding RSU awards were provided an election to concentrate their RSU awards into their company of employment post-spin or to receive RSUs in Frontdoor at the distribution rate of one Frontdoor RSU for each two ServiceMaster RSUs. Messrs. Varty, DiLucente and Stevenson elected to concentrate their RSUs into ServiceMaster RSUs, and consequently, their respective RSU awards, including the number of RSUs were adjusted to provide value equivalent to the pre-spin value. Mr. Persson and Ms. Wegner elected to receive RSUs of Frontdoor as well as maintaining their original number of RSUs in ServiceMaster, consistent with the terms of their existing RSU agreements. Mr. Tibbens' RSUs were concentrated into RSUs in Frontdoor as he holds the position of President and CEO of Frontdoor. All awards listed in the Summary Compensation, Grants of Plan Based Awards (2018), Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year End (2018), and Option Exercises and Stock Vested (2018) tables reflect the applicable adjustments related to the spin-off of Frontdoor to stock option and RSU awards. All awards, whether in ServiceMaster or Frontdoor retained the same terms and conditions, including the vesting terms, as the original ServiceMaster awards. Individual awards are detailed in the Grants of Plan Based Awards table below.

    Omnibus Incentive Plan

    Our board of directors adopted and our stockholders approved the Omnibus Incentive Plan in 2015. Our directors, officers, employeesteammates and consultants are eligible to receive awards under the Omnibus Incentive Plan. Awards under the Omnibus Incentive Plan may be made in the form of stock options, which may be either incentive stock options or non-qualified stock options; stock purchase rights; restricted stock; RSUs; performance RSUs; performance shares; PSUs; stock appreciation rights ("SARs"(“SARs”); dividend equivalents; deferred share units; and other stock-based awards.

    A total of 5,817,6814,705,308 shares of our common stock remained available for issuance under the Omnibus Incentive Plan as of December 31, 2018.2021. This figure represented approximatelyless than four percent of the shares of our common stock that were outstanding as of December 31, 2018. During any period2021. The Omnibus Incentive Plan provides that Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code is applicable to us, (1) the maximum number of stock options, SARs or other awards based solely on the increase in the value of common stock that a participant may receive in any year is 2,000,000; (2) a participant may receive a maximum of 1,000,000

    performance shares, shares of performance-based restricted stock and performance-based RSUs in any year; and (3) the maximum value of performance units granted to a participant during any year may not exceed $10,000,000.

    We will continue to consider LTI awards under the Omnibus Incentive Plan on an ongoing basis to certain key employees,teammates, including our NEOs, in order to recognize outstanding performance, assumption of additional responsibilities, enhance retention or otherwise as the Compensation Committee may determine is in our best interest.

    Employee Stock Purchase Plan

    The Employee Stock Purchase Plan ("ESPP"(“ESPP”) was approved by stockholders at the 2015 Annual Meetingannual meeting in April 2015. A total of 1,000,000 shares was authorized by stockholders for issuance under the ESPP. Purchases under the ESPP were suspended in 2018 due to the pending spin-off of Frontdoor.

    The Compensation Committee amended the ESPP in February 2019 to allow for more frequent purchase periods and to change the allowed 10 percent discount to a company match of 10 percent of employeeteammate contributions. The authorized number of shares of common stock remaining in the ESPP (843,584) was not changed. The expiration date of the planESPP was not changed from April 27, 2025. We expect purchasesOur executive officers are prohibited from participating in the ESPP. As of December 31, 2021, 741,120 shares of common stock remained available for purchase under the amendedESPP.

    Teammates, including the NEOs, are generally eligible to participate in the ServiceMasterTerminix Profit Sharing and Retirement Plan, as amended and restated and, as it may be further amended from time to time (the "PSRP"“PSRP”). The PSRP is a tax qualified 401(k) defined contribution plan under which we may make discretionary matching contributions. Historically, we have provided for a matching contribution in the PSRP where employeesteammates receive a dollar for dollar match on the first one percent of their contributions, and then a $0.50 per dollar match on the next two percent to six percent contributed. Company matching contributions for the NEOs are set forth below in the All Other Compensation table.

            Our aircraft policy was amended in October 2018 to require the approval of the Chairman of the board of directors to approve personal use of the Company aircraft by the CEO. Prior to the amendment to the policy in October the CEO was required to reimburse us for personal use of the company aircraft exceeding 100 hours annually. Any amount so reimbursed to us would be applied to reduce the executive's taxable income arising from the personal use. If our CEO utilizes our aircraft for non-business reasons, the amount, included as All Other Compensation on the Summary Compensation Table below, is generally calculated under the income imputation rules established by the IRS for personal use of company aircraft. These rules require the cost of each flight to be estimated by applying published IRS per mile rates based on the size of the aircraft to the total miles flown. This method of calculation was affirmed by the Compensation Committee.

            Prior to the amendment to the policy in October, the CEO could approve the personal use of the company aircraft by other executive officers and directors as needed. During 2018, Mr. Tibbens was authorized to use the company aircraft or a limited basis in conjunction with his hiring and move from Seattle, Washington to Memphis, Tennessee.

    Employment Arrangements

    We generally provide an executive with an offer letter prior to the time he or she joins the Company.

    2019 Performance Share Unit Awards
    The Compensation Committee approved PSU awards to executive officers in 2019 with a performance period of 2019 through 2021. The performance measures were cumulative adjusted revenue and cumulative adjusted earnings per share for ServiceMasterthe three-year period. The calculation of the payout achievement based on these financial measures may be adjusted by the Company’s total shareholder return relative to the Company’s peer group. If the Company’s TSR is above the 75th percentile, the payout would be adjusted by an additional 20 percentage points, and, conversely, if the Company’s TSR is below the 25th percentile of the peer group, the payout would be reduced by 20 percentage points. No adjustment would be made if the Company’s TSR was between the 25th and 75th percentiles.
    The Company achieved below target levels for adjusted revenue nor for adjusted EPS resulting in the casea calculated payout of Mr. Tibbens, $26.61 for Frontdoor.

    Deferred Compensation Programs

    The DCP is a nonqualified deferred compensation plan designed to afford certain highly compensated employeesteammates the opportunity to defer up to 75 percent of their compensation on a pre-tax basis. Deferred amounts are credited with earnings or losses based on the rate of return of mutual funds selected by the participants in the DCP. The Company, in its sole discretion, may make matching contributions, based on the amounts that are deferred by employeesteammates pursuant to the DCP, but did not choose to make matching contributions for 2018.2021.

    2022 ANNUAL
    PROXY STATEMENT
    CEO Pay Ratio

    To determine the CEO pay ratio, we included our global population as of December 31, 2018. Weutilized the same median teammate used actual compensation data fromto determine the Company's human resource systems for employeesCEO pay ratio disclosed in the United States and target compensation for employees outside the United States. We annualized pay for employees, including part-time employees, who commenced work in 2018. Pay for part-time employees who commenced work in 2018 was annualized only to the extent of the part-time hours they would have worked during 2018. We determined our median employee based on this data.Company’s 2021 proxy statement as permitted under SEC regulations. We calculated the median base salary and determined that person'sperson’s total compensation was $47,907$53,776 in 2018.2021. Our CEO's annualCEO’s compensation for 20182021 was $5,526,809,$4,998,107, including the grant date value of his target equity awards. As a result, the ratio of CEO pay to median employeeteammate pay for 20182021 was 115:93:1.

    The SEC'sCEO pay ratio disclosure rules permitdisclosed in the use2021 proxy statement was 106:1. The decrease in the ratio is attributable to an increase in the compensation of estimates, assumptionsthe median employee and adjustments, anda decrease in the SEC has acknowledgedCEO’s compensation. The CEO’s compensation utilized to calculate the ratio in the 2021 proxy statement was an annualized number as the CEO was hired in September 2020. The CEO’s compensation in the 2021 proxy statement also included a sign-on bonus of $520,000 that pay ratio disclosures may involve a degree of imprecision. is not included in the 2022 proxy statement.

    The resulting pay ratio asis calculated in a manner consistent with SEC rules and we believe it constitutes a reasonable estimate. However, as contemplated by SEC rules, we relied on methods and assumptions that we determined to be appropriate for calculating the pay ratio at ServiceMaster.Terminix. Other companies will use methods and assumptions that differ from the ones we chose but are appropriate for their circumstances. It may therefore be difficult, for this and other reasons, to compare our reported pay ratio to pay ratios reported by other companies.

    REPORT OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE

    [MISSING IMAGE: tm223409d1-bar_termnixpn.jpg]
    The principal purpose of the Audit Committee is to assist the board of directors in its general oversight of our accounting practices, system of internal controls, audit processes and financial reporting processes. The Audit Committee is responsible for the appointment, retention, termination, compensation, evaluation and oversight of our independent registered public accounting firm. The Audit Committee'sCommittee’s function is more fully described in its charter, and a description of its oversight responsibilities is set forth below in Proposal 3.

    Our management is responsible for preparing our financial statements and ensuring they are complete and accurate and prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and for establishing and maintaining adequate internal controls over financial reporting. Deloitte, our independent registered public accounting firm for 2018,2021, was responsible for performing an independent audit of our consolidated financial statements and internal control over financial reporting in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (the "PCAOB"“PCAOB”) and to issue a report as a result of such audits. The Audit Committee serves as a focal point for communication among the board of directors and its committees, the independent registered public accounting firm, management and our internal audit function, as the respective duties of such groups, or their constituent members, relate to our financial accounting and reporting and to its internal controls.

    The Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed our audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 20182021 with management and with Deloitte. These audited financial statements are included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

    2021.

    The Audit Committee has also discussed with Deloitte the matters required to be discussed by Auditing Standard No. 16 adopted by the PCAOB regarding "1301 “Communications with Audit Committees."” issued by the PCAOB. The Audit Committee also reviewed and discussed with management, the internal auditors and the independent registered public accounting firm, management'smanagement’s report, and the independent registered public accounting firm'sfirm’s attestation, on internal control over financial reporting in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.

    The Audit Committee also has received and reviewed the written disclosures and the letter from Deloitte required by applicable requirements of the PCAOB regarding Deloitte'sDeloitte’s communications with the Audit Committee concerning independence and has discussed with Deloitte its independence from us.

    The board of directors has determined that the following members of the Audit Committee are audit committee financial experts as defined in Item 407(d)(5)(ii) of Regulation S-K: David J. Frear, Naren K. Gursahaney, Stephen J. Sedita and Chris S. Terrill. The board of director has also determined each member of the Audit Committee meets the independence and financial literacy requirements for audit committee members set forth under the listing standards of the NYSE and our independence standards.
    Based on the review and discussions described above, the Audit Committee recommended to the board of directors that the audited financial statements be included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 20182021 for filing with the SEC.

    PROPOSAL 2: NON-BINDING ADVISORY VOTE TO APPROVE EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

    [MISSING IMAGE: tm223409d1-bar_termnixpn.jpg]
    As a result of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, and in accordance with Section 14A of the Exchange Act, the Company'sCompany’s stockholders are entitled to approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of our NEOs. This non-binding advisory vote, commonly known as a "Say-on-Pay"“Say-on-Pay” vote, gives our stockholders the opportunity to express their views on our NEOs'NEOs’ compensation. This vote is not intended to address any specific item of compensation, but rather the overall compensation of our NEOs and the philosophy, policies and practices described in this proxy statement. At the 20182021 Annual Meeting, 96 percent of voting stockholders approved the 20182021 Say-on-Pay vote and at the 20152021 Annual Meeting approved the advisory vote on the frequency of Say-on-Pay vote for every year. As such, we expect to present a Say-on-Pay vote to stockholders each year.

    As described in the "Compensation“Compensation Discussion and Analysis"Analysis” section of this proxy statement (the "CD&A"“CD&A”), the Compensation Committee is tasked with the implementation of our executive compensation philosophy, and the core of that philosophy has been, and continues to be, to pay our executives based on our performance. In particular, the Compensation Committee strives to (i) attract and retain highly motivated, qualified and experienced executives, (ii) focus the attention of the NEOs on the strategic, operational and financial performance of the Company and (iii) encourage the NEOs to meet long-term performance objectives and increase stockholder value. To do so, the Compensation Committee uses a combination of near- and long-term incentive compensation to motivate and reward executives who have the ability to significantly influence our long-term financial success and who are responsible for effectively managing our operations in a way that maximizes stockholder value. It is always the intention of the Compensation Committee that our executive officers be compensated competitively with the market and consistently with our business strategy, sound corporate governance principles and stockholder interests and concerns. We believe our compensation program is effective, appropriate and strongly aligned with the long-term interests of our stockholders and that the total compensation package provided to our NEOs are reasonable and not excessive.


    Table of Contents

    For these reasons, the board of directors is asking stockholders to vote "FOR"“FOR” the following resolution:

      "

    RESOLVED, that the compensation paid to the Company'sCompany’s NEOs, as disclosed pursuant to the rules of the SEC, including the CD&A, compensation tables and narrative discussion, is hereby APPROVED."

    As you consider this Proposal 2, we urge you to read the CD&A section of this proxy statement for additional details on executive compensation, including the more detailed information about our compensation philosophy and objectives and the past compensation of our NEOs, and to review the tabular disclosures regarding NEO compensation together with the accompanying narrative disclosures in the "Executive Compensation"“Executive Compensation” section of this proxy statement.

    As an advisory vote, Proposal 2 is not binding on our board of directors or the Compensation Committee, will not overrule any decisions made by our board of directors or the Compensation Committee or require our board of directors or the Compensation Committee to take any specific action. Although the vote is non-binding, our board of directors and the Compensation Committee value the opinions of our stockholders and will carefully consider the outcome of the vote when making future compensation decisions for our NEOs.

    The Audit Committee of the board of directors has selected Deloitte as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 20192022 and recommends that the stockholders vote for ratification of such selection. Prior to appointing Deloitte as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2019,2022, the Audit Committee reviewed the performance of Deloitte and made inquiries of management regarding Deloitte'sDeloitte’s performance. The Audit Committee has sole and direct responsibility for the appointment, retention, termination, compensation, evaluation and oversight of the work of any independent registered public accounting firm engaged by the Company. In the event of a negative vote on the ratification, the Audit Committee may reconsider its appointment of Deloitte for 2019; however, the Audit Committee2022 and will consider the outcome of the vote when making appointments of our independent registered public accounting firm in future years. Even if the appointment is ratified, the Audit Committee, in its discretion, may direct the appointment of a different independent registered public accounting firm at any time during the year if the Audit Committee determines that such a change would be in the Company'sCompany’s and the stockholders'stockholders’ best interests.

    Representatives of Deloitte are expected to be present at the Annual Meeting and will have an opportunity to make a statement, if they desire to do so, and to respond to appropriate questions from those attending the meeting.

    Evaluation and Oversight ResponsibilitiesEVALUATION AND OVERSIGHT RESPONSIBILITIES

    The Audit Committee evaluates the selection of the independent registered public accounting firm each year. In determining whether to reappoint Deloitte as our independent registered public accounting firm, the Audit Committee considers a number of factors, including:


    Deloitte'sDeloitte’s historical and recent performance on the Company'sCompany’s audit;


    the quality and efficiency of the services provided by Deloitte;

    Table of Contents

      an assessment of the firm'sfirm’s professional qualifications, resources and expertise;

    the appropriateness of Deloitte'sDeloitte’s fees;


    the length of time the firm has served in this role; and


    external data on audit quality and performance, including recent PCAOB reports on Deloitte and peer firms.

    Considered together, these factors enable the Audit Committee to evaluate whether the selection of Deloitte as the Company'sCompany’s independent registered public accounting firm, and the retention of Deloitte to perform other services, will contribute to, and enhance, audit quality. Based on its evaluation, the Audit Committee believes that the continued retention of Deloitte to serve as the Company'sCompany’s independent registered public accounting firm is in the best interest of our stockholders.

    Could the Date, Time and Location of the Annual Meeting Change Due to COVID-19?
    We currently intend to hold our Annual Meeting in person; however, we will continue to actively monitor issues related to COVID-19 and the impact of such on our Annual Meeting. We are sensitive to the public health and travel concerns our stockholders may have and the protocols that federal, state and local governments may impose or recommend. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, it is possible that we may change the date, time or location of the Annual Meeting, or may conduct the Annual Meeting via the Internet or teleconference call (a “virtual meeting”) if we determine it is not possible or advisable to hold an in-person meeting. We will notify stockholders of any such changes as promptly as practicable by issuing a press release that will be filed with the SEC and posted to our website.
    If we elect to proceed with a virtual meeting, we will ensure that our stockholders will be able to participate in the virtual meeting by providing a toll-free telephone number whereby they can access the meeting, ensuring any presentations are available to access via the Internet, afford stockholders the opportunity to ask questions and be able to vote their shares, if necessary, in conjunction with the Annual Meeting. If we elect to hold a virtual meeting for the 2022 Annual Meeting, we would do so only as a precautionary measure in response to the COVID-19 situation; we would expect to revert to an in-person annual meeting in 2023 and future years.
    If you plan to attend the Annual Meeting in person, please monitor our Investor Relations website at http://investors.terminix.com and check the website in advance of the Annual Meeting for any updates. Please also retain your Annual Meeting materials for access details you will need in the event we decide to hold a virtual meeting, including the control number included on your proxy card or in the voting instructions that accompanied your proxy materials as you will need this number should we determine to switch to virtual meeting.

    Proposal 1:The election of the three nominees as Class II directors for a term expiring at the 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders and one Class III director for a one-year term to serve until the 2023 Annual Meeting of Stockholders as named in the accompanying proxy statement.
    Proposal 2:A non-binding advisory vote approving executive compensation for our named executive officers.
    Proposal 3:The ratification of Deloitte & Touche LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2022.
    To transact such other business as may properly come before the Annual Meeting or any reconvened meeting following any adjournment or postponement thereof.
    How does the board of directors recommend I vote on these proposals?
    Proposal 1:“FOR” each of the nominees named in this proxy statement.
    Proposal 2:“FOR” the non-binding advisory vote approving executive compensation for our named executive officers.
    Proposal 3:“FOR” the ratification of Deloitte as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2022.
    At the discretion of the proxy holders, either FOR or AGAINST, any other matter or business that may properly come before the Annual Meeting.
    As of the date hereof, our board of directors is not aware of any other such matter or business to be transacted at our Annual Meeting. If other matters requiring a vote of the stockholders arise, the persons designated as proxies will vote the shares of common stock of the Company, par value $0.01 per share, represented by the proxies in accordance with their judgment on those matters.
    Who is entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting?
    The record date for stockholders entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Annual Meeting is March 31, 2022. At the close of business on that date, we had 121,493,685 shares of common stock outstanding and entitled to be voted at the Annual Meeting held by three stockholders of record and approximately 56,000 beneficial stockholders. A quorum is required for our stockholders to conduct business at the Annual Meeting. The presence in person or by proxy of the holders of record of a majority of the shares of common stock entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting is necessary to constitute a quorum at the Annual Meeting. Each outstanding share of common stock is entitled to one vote. Dissenters’ rights are not applicable to any of the matters being voted upon at the Annual Meeting.
    By granting a proxy, you authorize the persons named in the proxy to represent you and vote your shares at the Annual Meeting. Those persons will also be authorized to vote your shares to adjourn the Annual Meeting from time to time and to vote your shares at any adjournments or postponements of the Annual Meeting.
    Registered Stockholders. If your shares are registered directly in your name with our transfer agent, Computershare Trust Company, N.A. (“Computershare”), you are considered the stockholder of record with respect to those shares, and the proxy materials were provided to you directly by us. As a stockholder of record, you have the right to grant your voting proxy directly to the individuals listed on the proxy card in one of the manners listed on the proxy card or to vote in person at the Annual Meeting.
    Beneficial Stockholders. If your shares are held in a stock brokerage account or by a broker, bank, trustee or other nominee, you are considered the beneficial owner of shares held in “street name,” and the proxy materials were forwarded to you by your broker, bank, trustee or other nominee, who is considered, with respect to those shares, the stockholder of record. As the beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your broker, bank, trustee or other nominee how to vote your shares using the methods prescribed by your broker, bank, trustee or other nominee on the voting instruction card you received with the proxy materials. Beneficial owners are also invited to attend the Annual Meeting. However, since you are not the stockholder of record, you may not vote your shares in person at the Annual Meeting unless you follow your broker’s, bank’s, trustee’s or other nominee’s procedures for obtaining a legal proxy.
    What votes are required to approve each of the proposals?
    Proposal 1, the nominees for director will be elected by a majority of the votes cast with respect to such director nominee’s election. The “majority of votes cast” means that the number of shares voted “for” a director nominee must exceed the number of votes cast “against” that director nominee’s election. In accordance with our amended and restated by-laws, stockholders do not have the right to cumulate their votes for the election of directors.

    PROXY MATERIALS AND ANNUAL MEETING
    2022 ANNUAL
    PROXY STATEMENT
    Proposal 2, the non-binding advisory vote approving executive compensation, will be determined by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote. As an advisory vote, this proposal is not binding. However, our board of directors and Compensation Committee will consider the outcome of the vote when making future compensation decisions for our executive officers.
    Proposal 3, the ratification of the selection of Deloitte as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2022, will be determined by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote. The Audit Committee has sole and direct responsibility for the appointment, retention, termination, compensation, evaluation and oversight of the work of any independent registered public accounting firm engaged by the Company. The Audit Committee has already appointed Deloitte as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2022. In the event of a negative vote on the ratification, the Audit Committee may reconsider its appointment of Deloitte for 2022 and will consider the outcome of the vote when making appointments of our independent registered public accounting firm in future years. Even if the appointment is ratified, the Audit Committee, in its discretion, may direct the appointment of a different independent registered public accounting firm at any time during the year if the Audit Committee determines that such a change would be in the Company’s and the stockholders’ best interests.
    How are broker non-votes and abstentions counted?
    The presence of a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting, either in person or by proxy, will constitute a quorum. Shares of common stock represented by proxies at the meeting, including broker non-votes and those that are marked “ABSTAIN” will be counted as shares present for purposes of establishing a quorum. Brokers or nominees holding shares for a beneficial owner may only vote on routine matters on behalf of a beneficial owner that does not provide voting instructions for their shares. A broker non-vote occurs when a broker or nominee holding shares for a beneficial owner has not received instructions from the beneficial owner and, therefore, does not vote on a non-routine matter. Because broker non-votes are not voted affirmatively or negatively, they will have no effect on the approval of any of the proposals, except where brokers may exercise their discretion on routine matters. Neither withholding authority to vote with respect to one or more nominees nor a broker non-vote will have an effect on the outcome of the election of directors in Proposal 1. As to Proposals 2 and 3, shares represented by proxies that are marked “ABSTAIN” will have the effect of a vote against the proposal, while a broker non-vote will not have an effect on the outcome of any proposal other than Proposal 3. Only the ratification of the selection of Deloitte as our independent registered public accounting firm in Proposal 3 is considered a routine matter. Your broker will therefore not have discretion to vote on the “non-routine” matters set forth in Proposals 1-2 absent direction from you. It is, therefore, important that you vote your shares.
    What happens if a director nominee does not get a majority vote?
    Following certification of the stockholder vote in an uncontested election, any incumbent director who did not receive a majority of the votes cast for his or her election shall promptly tender his or her resignation, contingent upon acceptance of such resignation by the board, to the Chairman of the Board. The Chairman of the Board shall inform the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of such tender of resignation, and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee shall consider such resignation and recommend to the board of directors whether to accept the tendered resignation or reject it or whether any other action should be taken. In deciding upon its recommendation, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee shall consider all relevant factors, including without limitation the qualifications of the director who has tendered his or her resignation and the director’s contribution to the Company and the board. The board will act on the recommendation of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee no later than 90 days after the certification of the stockholder vote and disclose the decision by filing a Form 8-K with the SEC. The board shall consider the factors considered by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and such additional information and factors that the board deems relevant.
    Can I vote in person at the Annual Meeting?
    For beneficial stockholders with shares registered in the name of a brokerage firm or bank or other similar organization, you will need to obtain a legal proxy from the broker, bank, trustee or other nominee that holds your shares before you can consentvote your shares in person at the Annual Meeting. For stockholders of record with shares registered directly in their names with Computershare, you may vote your shares in person at the Annual Meeting.
    What do I need to receiving all future proxy statements, proxy cardsdo to attend the Annual Meeting in person?
    Space for the Annual Meeting is limited and annual reports electronically via e-mailadmission will be granted on a first-come, first-served basis. Stockholders should be prepared to present (1) valid government photo identification, such as a driver’s license or passport; and (2) beneficial stockholders holding their shares through a broker, bank, trustee or other nominee will need to bring proof of beneficial ownership as of March 31, 2022, the Internet.

    Can I vote by telephone or Internet?
    Stockholders of record with shares registered directly in their names with Computershare will be able to vote using the telephone and Internet.

Stockholders should refer to the voting instruction card provided by their broker, bank, trustee or other nominee for instructions on the voting methods they offer.

A stockholder’s submission of a signed proxy will not affect his or her right to attend and to vote in person at the Annual Meeting.
    How do I change or revoke my proxy?
    Any person signing a proxy in the form accompanying this proxy statement has the power to revoke it prior to the Annual Meeting or at the Annual Meeting prior to the vote pursuant to the proxy.

Please note, however, that if a stockholder’s shares are held of record by a broker, bank, trustee or other nominee and that stockholder wishes to vote in person at the Annual Meeting, the stockholder must bring a legal proxy to the Annual Meeting.
