4 Questions and Answers about the Meeting 20222024 PROXY STATEMENT MARRIOTT VACATIONS WORLDWIDE


Q.

Why did I receive a one-page notice in the mail regarding the Internet availability of proxy materials instead of printed proxy materials?

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) permits companies to furnish proxy materials to stockholders by providing access to these documents over the Internet instead of mailing a printed copy. Accordingly, we mailed a Notice to stockholders who elected to receive proxy materials by email. These stockholders have the ability to access, view and print the proxy materials on athe website referred to in the Notice and request a printed set of proxy materials.

 

Q.

Can I get electronic access to the proxy materials if I received printed materials?

If you received a printed copy of our proxy materials, you can also view the proxy materials for the meeting electronically at proxyvote.com. You may also choose to receive future proxy materials by email. Choosing to receive your future proxy materials by email will lower our costs of delivery and reduce the environmental impact of our Annual Meeting. If you choose to receive our future proxy materials by email, you will receive an email next year with instructions containing a link to view those proxy materials and a link to the proxy voting site. Your election to receive proxy materials by email will remain in effect until you terminate it or for so long as the email address provided by you is valid.

 

Q.

What items will be voted on at the Annual Meeting?

Stockholders will vote on the following items at the Annual Meeting, if each is properly presented at the meeting:

 

 1.

Election of the threefour director nominees named in this Proxy Statement;

 

 2.

The Board’s recommendation is set forth together with the description of each Item in this Proxy Statement. The Board recommends a vote FOR each nominee for director in Item 1, and FOR Items 2, 3, and 3.4.

 

Q.

What is the difference between being a record holder and a beneficial owner of shares held in street name?

A record holder holds shares directly in his, her or herits own name with the Company’s transfer agent. Shares held in “street name” refer to shares that are held in the name of a bank or broker on a person’s behalf. Many stockholders hold their shares in street name. For such shares, the bank or broker is considered the record holder for purposes of voting at the Annual Meeting. As a beneficial owner, you have the right to direct that organization how to vote the shares held in your account.

PROPOSALS FOR VOTE

 

ITEM 1 – ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

The Board currently consists of eleven members and is divided into three classes, each having three-yearclasses. At our 2023 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, our stockholders approved and adopted an amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation to phase in the declassification of our Board commencing with the 2024 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. Under our Certificate of Incorporation, as so amended, the directors elected beginning at this year’s Annual Meeting will be elected for one-year terms, that expire in successive years.and beginning with the 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, the entire Board will be elected on an annual basis. The current Class IIII directors include Thomas Hutchison, Raymond L. Gellein, Jr., Dianna F. MorganLizanne Galbreath, Mary E. Galligan, Melquiades R. Martinez, and Jonice Gray Tucker,Stephen R. Quazzo, and the term of the Class IIII directors expires at the Annual Meeting. The Board proposes that Raymond L. Gellein, Jr., Dianna F. MorganLizanne Galbreath, Mary E. Galligan, Melquiades R. Martinez, and Jonice Gray TuckerStephen R. Quazzo be elected as Class I directors for a term of three years expiring at the 2025 Annual Meeting and until their successors are duly elected and qualified. Stockholders last elected Mr. Gellein and Ms. Morgan as Class I directors at the 2019 Annual Meeting. The Board appointed Ms. Tucker as a director in November 2021, and simultaneously increased the size of the Board to 11. The Board does not intend to fill the vacancy created by the expiration of Mr. Hutchison’s term; instead, the number of directors will be reduced to 10 effective as of the 2022 Annual Meeting. Proxies cannot be voted for more than the number of nominees proposed for re-election.

Each of the nominees has consented to be named as a nominee and to serve as a director if elected. If any of them should become unavailable to serve as a director, the Board may designate a substitute nominee. In that case, the persons named as proxies will vote for the substitute nominee designated by the Board.

Information about the nominees, as well as the current Class III and Class IIIII directors, is set forth below in the section titled “Report on the Board of Directors and its Committees” beginning on page 9.17.

 

 

 

Our Board of Directors recommends that you vote FOR each of the threefour director nominees.

 

ITEM 2 – RATIFICATION OF APPOINTMENT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Audit Committee of the Board (the “Audit Committee”) has appointed Ernst & Young as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the Company’s 20222024 fiscal year. Although the Audit Committee has discretionary authority to appoint the independent auditor, the Board is seeking stockholder ratification of the appointment as a matter of good corporate governance. The Board and the Audit Committee believe that the continued retention of Ernst & Young as the Company’s independent auditor is in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders. If the appointment of Ernst & Young is not ratified by stockholders, the Audit Committee will take that into consideration when determining whether to continue the firm’s engagement. Even if the appointment is ratified, the Audit Committee at its discretion may direct the appointment 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.

Representatives of Ernst & Young are expected to be present at the Annual Meeting online, will have an opportunity to make a statement if they so desire, and are expected to be available to respond to appropriate questions.

 

 

 

Our Board of Directors recommends that you vote FOR ratification of the appointment of Ernst & Young as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for its 20222024 fiscal year.

ITEM 4 – APPROVAL OF THE AMENDED AND RESTATED MARRIOTT VACATIONS WORLDWIDE CORPORATION 2020 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN

We are asking our stockholders to approve the amended and restated Marriott Vacations Worldwide Corporation 2020 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Restated Plan”), which increases the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that may be issued under the Restated Plan by 1,250,000 shares, extends the term of the Restated Plan to May 10, 2034, which is the tenth anniversary of the date of this Annual Meeting, and makes certain other administrative and clarifying changes. As described in “Executive and Director Compensation” herein, performance-based pay elements, including equity-based awards, are important components of our overall compensation program and are crucial in allowing the Company to effectively compete for and appropriately motivate and reward key talent. We believe that awards under the Restated Plan will support the creation of long-term value and returns for our stockholders. We further believe that the Restated Plan strikes a proper balance between rewarding performance and limiting stockholder dilution. The purpose of the Restated Plan is to promote the best interests of our Company and our stockholders by providing employees and non-employee members of the Board with an opportunity to acquire shares of our common stock or receive monetary payments valued in relation to shares of our common stock. It is intended that the Restated Plan will promote continuity of management and increased incentive and personal interest in the welfare of our Company by those employees who are primarily responsible for shaping and carrying out our long-range plans and securing our continued growth and financial success. In addition, by encouraging share ownership by non-employee directors, we seek to attract and retain on the Board persons of exceptional competence and to provide a further incentive to serve as a director.

If approved by our stockholders, the Restated Plan will become effective as of the date of the Annual Meeting. Our employees and non-employee directors have an interest in the approval of the Restated Plan because they will be eligible for awards under the Restated Plan. If our stockholders do not approve the Restated Plan, then the Restated Plan will become effective but without the increase to the number of shares of Common Stock that may be issued under the plan and without the extension of its term, which are the sole items that require stockholder approval.

Background of the Restated Plan; Information About Outstanding Awards

Prior to our stockholders’ approval of the Marriott Vacations Worldwide Corporation 2020 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2020 Plan”) at our 2020 Annual Stockholders Meeting, we granted incentive compensation awards under the Marriott Vacations Worldwide Corporation Stock and Cash Incentive Plan (the “Prior MVW Plan”) and the Amended and Restated Interval Leisure Group, Inc. 2013 Stock and Incentive Compensation Plan (the “ILG Plan,” and together with the Prior MVW Plan, the “Prior Plans”). When our stockholders approved the 2020 Plan, it superseded the Prior Plans and no new awards have been granted under the Prior Plans after such time.

As of March 11, 2024, there were 800,085 shares in the aggregate subject to outstanding stock appreciation rights (“SARs”) under the 2020 Plan and the Prior Plans, having a weighted average exercise price per share of $114.63 and a weighted average remaining term of six years. Also, as of March 11, 2024, there were 1,230,242 shares in the aggregate subject to unvested restricted stock unit and performance share awards under the 2020 Plan and the Prior Plans. The market value of one share of Common Stock as of the close of market on March 11, 2024 was $94.39.

Authorized Shares, Dilution and Run Rate

As of March 11, 2024, we had authorized and outstanding 35,177,666 shares of common stock, par value of $0.01 per share. Before giving effect to the Restated Plan, as of March 11, 2024, there were 2,030,327 shares of Common Stock subject to outstanding awards under the 2020 Plan and the Prior Plans, and 895,735 shares of our Common Stock remained available for grants under the 2020 Plan. The Board believes that this share reserve amount is insufficient to meet the future incentive needs of the Company and that the share reserve amount under the 2020 Plan should increase.

In order to determine the number of additional shares of common stock to be authorized under the Restated Plan, the Company, the CPC and its independent compensation consultant considered our need for shares, based on the current and expected future equity grant mix, and the potential dilution that awarding the requested shares may cause to existing stockholders. The Company and compensation consultant examined, and the CPC considered, a number of factors, including our historic run rate, existing overhang and dilution analysis.

The CPC recommended to the Board that 1,250,000 additional shares be authorized under the Restated Plan. The requested additional shares plus the shares already reserved under the 2020 Plan, plus the shares subject to outstanding awards as of March 11, 2024 represent a level of dilution of 11.9%, a level we believe to be reasonable.

The CPC and the Board considered the run rate with respect to our equity awards relative to market levels. The run rate represents the total number of restricted stock units and SARs granted, and performance share units earned, in a fiscal year divided by the weighted-average total shares of our shares of common stock outstanding for the year.

A calculation of our run rate for the last three fiscal years is below:

MARRIOTT VACATIONS WORLDWIDE 2024 PROXY STATEMENTProposals for Vote9


The CPC and the Board were satisfied that our run rate over the past three years was at an acceptable level.

Because this proposal to approve the Restated Plan does not contemplate the amount or timing of specific equity awards in the future, it is not possible to calculate with certainty the number of years of awards that will be available and the amount of subsequent dilution that may ultimately result from such awards. The Board is seeking stockholder approval for the extension of the term of the Restated Plan and the additional pool of shares available under the Restated Plan, which it expects is sufficient for approximately three years of awards based upon the historic rates of awards by the CPC under the 2020 Plan. The current rationale and practices of the CPC with respect to equity awards and other incentives is set forth in “Executive and Director Compensation” herein.

A summary description of the Restated Plan follows below. The summary description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Restated Plan, which is attached to this proxy statement as Appendix B.

Purpose

The purposes of the Restated Plan are to:

promote the growth and success of our Company by linking a significant portion of participant compensation to the increase in value of our shares;

attract and retain top quality, experienced executives and key employees by offering a competitive incentive compensation program;

reward innovation and outstanding performance as important contributing factors to our Company’s growth and progress;

align the interests of executives, other key employees and directors with those of our stockholders by reinforcing the relationship between participant rewards and stockholder gains obtained through the achievement by Plan participants of long-term goals; and

encourage executives, key employees and directors to obtain and maintain an equity interest in our Company.

Administration of the Restated Plan

The CPC will administer the Restated Plan with respect to all participants. Subject to the express provisions of the Restated Plan, the CPC has full discretionary authority to:

construe or interpret the provisions of the Restated Plan and any award agreement;

prescribe, amend and rescind rules and regulations relating to the Restated Plan;

correct any defect, supply any omission or reconcile any inconsistency in the Restated Plan, any award or any award agreement; and

make all other determinations necessary or advisable for the administration of the Restated Plan.

The determinations the CPC makes or takes under the provisions of the Restated Plan are final and binding. The CPC may delegate some or all of its authority under the Restated Plan to a sub-committee composed of directors, or to one or more officers of our Company. Delegation is not permitted, however, with respect to share-based awards made to individuals subject to Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, unless the delegation is to a committee of the Board that consists only of non-employee directors.

Eligibility and Participation

The CPC may grant awards under the Restated Plan to:

any non-union employee of our Company or our subsidiaries; and

any non-employee director of our Board.

Only our employees or employees of our subsidiaries may receive grants of incentive stock options (“ISOs”). There are approximately 21,300 employees and ten non-employee directors who currently meet the eligibility requirements to participate in the Restated Plan if it is approved by our stockholders.

Shares Subject to the Restated Plan and Director Pay Limits

The Restated Plan provides that the following shares of our common stock are reserved for issuance under the plan: 2,515,000 shares (comprised of the original 1,265,000 shares approved under the 2020 Plan plus the new 1,250,000 shares being requested under the Restated Plan), plus the number of shares reserved under the Prior MVW Plan that were not the subject of outstanding awards as of the date the 2020 Plan became effective, plus any shares subject to outstanding awards under the 2020 Plan or Prior Plans that would be replenished to that plan’s share reserve, as explained below. All of these shares may be issued upon the exercise of ISOs or any other type of award authorized by the Restated Plan. These share amounts are subject to adjustment in the event of specified adjustments in our capitalization. See “Adjustments in Capitalization” below.

The aggregate value of cash fees paid, along with the grant date value of any awards granted under the Restated Plan, to a non-employee director shall not exceed $750,000 during any fiscal year. The number of shares reserved under the Restated Plan will be depleted on the date of grant of an award by the maximum number of shares, if any, with respect to which the award is granted. An award that provides for settlement solely in cash will not cause any depletion of the reserve at the time the award is granted.

The share reserve under the Restated Plan can be replenished or increased by certain terminated or forfeited awards. Specifically, to the extent (1) an award granted under the Restated Plan lapses, expires, terminates or is cancelled without the issuance of shares under the award (whether due currently or on a deferred basis), (2) it is determined during or at the conclusion of the term of an award that all or some portion of the shares with respect to which the award was granted will not be issuable on the basis that the conditions for such issuance will not be satisfied, (3) shares are forfeited under an award, (4) shares otherwise issuable under an award are withheld in payment of an exercise price of an option or in payment of any federal, state, local or other tax withholding obligations, or shares are not issued as a result of the net settlement of an award, or (5) shares are issued under any award and we subsequently reacquire them pursuant to rights reserved upon the issuance of the shares, then those shares will be recredited to the Restated Plan’s reserve and may again be used for new awards under the Restated Plan. Shares recredited to the Restated Plan’s reserve pursuant to clause (5) in the preceding sentence, however, may not be issued pursuant to ISOs.

If, after the effective date of the Restated Plan, any shares subject to awards granted under the 2020 Plan or Prior Plans would become available to be re-credited to the 2020 Plan’s or the Prior Plans’ reserves if such plans were still in effect (determined by applying the share reserve replenishment provisions described above), then those shares will be available for the purpose of granting awards under the Restated Plan, thereby increasing the reserve.

Adjustments in Capitalization

If there is:

any change in corporate capitalization, such as a stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, share combination, recapitalization, or similar event affecting the equity capital structure of the Company, or

a corporate transaction that affects our shares of common stock, such as any merger, consolidation, separation, acquisition of property or shares, stock rights offering, spin-off, or other distribution of stock or property of the Company, any reorganization or any partial or complete liquidation of the Company,

the CPC shall adjust the number and class of shares subject to the Restated Plan’s reserve and outstanding awards, the exercise price relating to any award, and performance goals which may be applicable to any outstanding awards, and the CPC may make such other equitable substitutions or adjustments as the CPC, in its sole discretion, determines to be appropriate and equitable to prevent dilution or enlargement of rights.

In addition to making such adjustments, the CPC or the board of directors, compensation committee or similar body of any legal entity assuming the obligations of the Company under the Restated Plan may either (a) make appropriate provision for the protection of outstanding awards by the substitution on an equitable basis of appropriate equity interests or awards similar to the awards (or, in the event no such similar equity interests may be identified, a nonqualified deferred compensation account allocation of equivalent value), provided that the substitution neither enlarges nor diminishes the value and rights under the awards; or (b) upon written notice to the participants, provide that awards will be exercised, distributed, cashed out or exchanged for value pursuant to such terms and conditions (including the waiver of any existing terms or conditions) as shall be specified in the notice. Any such adjustment of an ISO will be made in a manner that satisfies the requirements for treatment as an ISO for federal income tax purposes.

MARRIOTT VACATIONS WORLDWIDE 2024 PROXY STATEMENTProposals for Vote11


Types of Awards

Stock Appreciation Rights and Options

The CPC may grant SARs and stock options to eligible employees. In general, a SAR is a contractual right granted to the employee to receive the appreciation in value of up to a specified number of shares of our common stock over a specified period of time, subject to certain conditions. The appreciation is measured from the value of the shares on the grant date of the SARs to the value on the date the SARs are exercised. An option is a contractual right granted to the employee to purchase up to a specified number of shares at a specified purchase price within a specified period of time, subject to certain conditions. No dividend equivalents may be granted with respect to awards of SARs and stock options.

The CPC may grant options that qualify as ISOs as defined by Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code, nonqualified stock options that do not qualify as ISOs (“NQSOs”), or a combination of the two. Subject to the restrictions contained in the Restated Plan, the award agreement for a SAR or option will specify the exercise price, the number of shares subject to the SAR or option, the term of the SAR or option and such other terms and conditions as the CPC may determine.

The exercise price for each share subject to a SAR or option may not be less than the fair market value of a share on the day the SAR or option is granted. No SAR or option may have a term longer than ten years. SARs and options may be exercised at the times and to the extent permitted by the vesting and exercisability provisions determined by the CPC and set forth in the award agreement. The ability of an employee to exercise a SAR or option is conditioned upon the employee not committing any criminal offense or malicious tort relating to or against the Company, or other willful or grossly negligent acts or omissions that are or potentially are injurious to the Company’s operations, financial condition or business reputation. The exercise price for shares purchased upon exercise of an option must be paid in full at the time of purchase. Payment may be made in cash or its equivalent or, if permitted by the CPC, by withholding shares deliverable upon exercise or delivery of previously acquired shares (in each case having a fair market value equal to the exercise price), or by a combination of cash and shares. The CPC also may allow cashless exercise in appropriate circumstances.

Except as otherwise provided by the CPC, upon the employee’s retirement with specific approval from the CPC following attainment of age fifty-five with ten years of service, or upon the employee’s termination due to disability, the employee’s options or SARs shall continue to vest for up to 5 years (although vesting of any award that has been outstanding for less than 12 months shall be pro-rated for the period of time the employee was employed) and may be exercised for up to 5 years from the termination date, but not beyond the expiration date of the award. Except as otherwise provided by the CPC upon termination of an employee’s employment for any other reason, or upon expiration of an approved leave of absence if the employee does not return to work, the unvested portion of any option or SAR will be forfeited, and the employee will have three months to exercise the vested portion of the option or SAR, but not beyond the expiration date of the award. If an employee dies while employed or following retirement or disability, the options or SARs will become fully vested and may be exercised by such employee’s beneficiary for one year following death, but not beyond the expiration date of the award.

Restricted Stock Awards

The CPC may award shares of restricted stock to eligible employees in such amounts, and bearing such restrictions, as the CPC may determine. Each restricted stock award is subject to certain conditions specified by the CPC that must be satisfied in order for the employee to vest in the shares to be distributed to the employee. These conditions may include, for example, requirements that the employee remain in continuous employ with the Company for a period of time, requirements that the employee pay a stipulated price for each share, restrictions based upon the achievement of specific performance objectives (Company-wide, business unit-based and/or individual), time-based restrictions on vesting following the attainment of the performance objectives, or restrictions under applicable federal or state securities laws. If the conditions are not met, the shares will be forfeited and returned to the Company for cancellation. In all events, vesting of the shares is conditioned upon the employee not committing any criminal offense or malicious tort relating to or against the Company, and not engaging (as determined by the CPC) in willful or grossly negligent acts or omissions that are or are potentially harmful to the Company’s operations, financial condition or business reputation.

During the period of restriction, the employee may exercise full voting rights associated with shares of restricted stock and shall be credited with regular cash dividends paid with respect to those shares. The CPC will determine whether such dividends are to be accumulated or converted into additional shares of restricted stock, but in all events such dividends will not be paid or settled unless and to the same extent as the underlying restricted stock vests.

The CPC may determine to vest an employee’s shares of restricted stock in whole or in part upon the employee’s retirement with specific approval from the CPC following attainment of age fifty-five with ten years of service. Unless otherwise determined by the CPC if the employee dies or becomes permanently and totally disabled, the shares of restricted stock will vest in full. Unless otherwise determined by the CPC, if the employee’s termination of employment with the Company is for any other reason, the employee’s restricted stock will be immediately forfeited to the Company without payment. Shares of restricted stock may not be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned or otherwise disposed of until the end of the period of restriction, or upon earlier satisfaction of any other conditions, as specified by the CPC in its sole discretion.

Restricted Stock Unit Awards

The CPC may grant restricted stock units (“RSUs”) to eligible employees in amounts that it determines. RSUs give the employee a contractual right to be transferred shares in accordance with a specified vesting schedule, provided the employee satisfies certain other conditions. The shares will be transferred to the employee when the RSUs become vested, provided that the employee has been continuously employed by the Company and has not committed any criminal offense or malicious tort relating to or against the Company or, as determined by the CPC in its discretion, engaged in willful or grossly negligent acts that are or potentially could be harmful to the Company’s operations, financial condition or reputation.

12Proposals for Vote2024 PROXY STATEMENT MARRIOTT VACATIONS WORLDWIDE


Unless otherwise determined by the CPC, if an employee dies or becomes disabled, the employee’s RSUs will vest in full. Unless otherwise determined by the CPC, if an employee terminates employment as an approved retiree (attainment of age fifty-five with ten years of service) or due to death or disability, then the RSUs shall continue to vest over the vesting period specified in the RSU award agreement as if the employee continued employment, provided the other conditions described above continue to be met, although any RSUs granted within one year prior to the date of such termination will vest only on a pro-rata basis based on the length of the employee’s employment from the grant date. Unless otherwise determined by the CPC, if an employee terminates employment other than as an approved retiree or due to death or disability, the employee’s RSUs will be immediately forfeited to the Company without payment.

The holder of an RSU award has no right to vote the shares subject to the RSUs or to receive dividends on such shares until and unless he or she is transferred the shares upon meeting the vesting and other conditions of the award.

If the CPC grants dividend equivalents units with respect to the RSUs, the CPC will determine whether such dividend equivalents are to be accumulated or converted into additional RSUs, but in all events such dividend equivalents will not be paid or settled unless and to the same extent as the underlying RSUs vest.

Share-Based Awards

The CPC may grant other share-based awards to eligible employees in such number, and upon such terms and conditions, as the CPC may determine. Share-based awards may be denominated in cash, shares, share-equivalent units, share appreciation units, securities or debentures convertible into shares or in a combination of the foregoing and may be paid in cash or in shares, all as determined by the CPC. Dividend equivalents may only be granted with respect to full-value share-based awards, and such dividend equivalents may only be paid or settled to the same extent as the underlying award to which it relates is paid or settled. Share-based awards will be evidenced by an award agreement that will specify the terms and conditions of the award. The Performance Units we award are share-based awards.

Director Share Awards, SARS and Options

A non-employee director may be paid in shares of our common stock, may elect to receive payment of all or any part of his or her cash retainer in the form of Director SARs or options, or may elect to defer his or her fees in the form of deferred stock units, all as determined by the CPC.

The award agreement for a SAR or option will specify the exercise price, the number of shares subject to the SAR or option, and such other terms and conditions as the CPC may determine. Each Director SAR or option shall be immediately vested and exercisable and the term of the SAR or option shall be 10 years.

The exercise price for each share subject to a SAR or option may not be less than the fair market value of a share on the day the SAR or option is granted. No SAR or option may have a term longer than ten years. All Director SARs and options are fully vested. The exercise price for shares purchased upon exercise of an option must be paid in full at the time of purchase. Payment may be made in cash or its equivalent or, if permitted by the CPC, by withholding shares deliverable upon exercise or delivery of previously acquired shares, or by a combination of cash and shares. The CPC also may allow cashless exercise in appropriate circumstances.

Tax Withholding

Whenever withholding taxes are due with respect to an award, the Company may withhold cash payable under an award (if any) or require an award holder to remit cash to the Company as needed to pay such withholding taxes. The CPC may also permit an award holder to elect to have shares that would be otherwise issuable under the award, and having a fair market value not to exceed the maximum statutory tax withholding amount, withheld to satisfy such withholding tax obligations. The CPC may also allow award holders to satisfy their tax withholding obligations by use of a broker-assisted sell-to-cover transaction, in which the shares that are delivered or that become vested under the award are sold in the market, and the proceeds remitted to the Company in satisfaction of the withholding taxes.

Change of Control

Unless otherwise specified in an award agreement or determined by the CPC, upon a change in control of the Company resulting from certain acquisition, merger, sale, liquidation or similar events or a change in a majority of Board members as defined under the Restated Plan, a Restated Plan participant who is involuntarily terminated by the Company other than for his or her misconduct on or during the twelve months following the change in control will immediately upon termination vest in all unvested equity awards and all restrictions on Restricted Stock, RSUs and other similar share-based awards shall lapse and all such awards be fully vested as of the date of termination. In those circumstances, all options and SARs will be exercisable until the earlier of the original expiration date of the awards or twelve months (or in the case of an approved retiree, five years) following the termination of employment, and all other stock awards, and the subject shares, or equity interests that are substituted for the subject shares as a result of the change in control, shall be immediately distributed. In addition, all other share-based awards subject to performance-based vesting shall be fully vested as of the participant’s termination and be paid out immediately thereafter based on a target level of performance, prorated for the number of days in such performance period through the date of the termination.

However, in the event that no substitute awards, publicly-traded shares or other equity interests are available as of the change of control, the participant will become fully vested in his or her awards as of the change in control date, and all awards will be immediately distributed or paid, or, in the case of options and

SARs, fully exercisable. In the CPC’s discretion, distributions may be made in the form of a cash payment equal in amount to the shares distributed or, in the case of options or SARs, the intrinsic value of such awards. Unless otherwise provided by the CPC, the benefits described in this paragraph are subject to a cut-back, so that no such benefits will be provided to the extent they would result in the loss of a deduction or imposition of excise taxes under the “golden parachute” excess parachute payment provision of the Internal Revenue Code.

Certain Limits on Transfer of Awards

Awards granted under the Restated Plan are not transferable other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution, unless specified otherwise in the award agreement.

Repricing and Cash Buyouts Prohibited

Neither the CPC nor any other person may (1) amend the terms of outstanding options or SARs to reduce the exercise or grant price of such awards; (2) cancel outstanding options or SARs in exchange for options or SARs with an exercise or grant price that is less than the exercise price of the award; or (3) cancel outstanding options or SARs with an exercise or grant price above the current share price in exchange for cash or other securities.

Recoupment and Cancellation of Awards

Any awards granted under the Restated Plan, and any shares issued or cash paid pursuant to an award, will be subject to any recoupment, clawback, equity holding, stock ownership or similar policies that we adopt from time to time or that are applicable to us by law, regulation or listing standards from time to time.

Amendment and Termination of the Restated Plan

The Board may alter, amend, suspend or terminate the Restated Plan, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time. The Board may condition the adoption of any amendment of the Restated Plan on the approval of the stockholders. Stockholder approval also shall be obtained as required by NYSE rules and other requirements, regulations, or laws or if the Board proposes to amend the plan provisions prohibiting repricing or buyouts of options and SARs.

No termination, amendment, or modification of the Restated Plan or any award may adversely affect in any material way any award previously granted under the Restated Plan, without the written consent of the holder of the award.

Duration of the Restated Plan

Unless earlier terminated by the Board, the Restated Plan will remain in effect until the earlier of (a) the date that is ten years from the date our stockholders approve the Restated Plan or (b) the date all shares reserved for issuance under the Restated Plan have been issued.

Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences

The following tax discussion is a general summary as of the date of this Proxy Statement of the U.S. federal income tax consequences to the Company and the participants in the Restated Plan. The discussion is intended solely for general information and does not make specific representations to any participant. The discussion does not address state, local or foreign income tax rules or other U.S. tax provisions, such as estate or gift taxes. A participant’s particular situation may be such that some variation of the basic rules is applicable to him or her. In addition, the federal income tax laws and regulations frequently have been revised and may be changed again at any time.

Stock Options

ISOs and NQSOs are treated differently for federal income tax purposes. ISOs are intended to comply with the requirements of Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code. NQSOs do not comply with such requirements.

An optionee is not taxed on the grant or exercise of an ISO. The difference between the exercise price and the fair market value of the shares on the exercise date will, however, be a preference item for purposes of the alternative minimum tax. If an optionee holds the shares acquired upon exercise of an ISO until the later of two years following the option grant date and one year following exercise, the optionee’s gain, if any, upon a subsequent disposition of such shares is long term capital gain. The measure of the gain is the difference between the proceeds received on disposition and the optionee’s basis in the shares (which generally equals the exercise price). If an optionee disposes of stock acquired pursuant to exercise of an ISO before satisfying these holding periods, the optionee will recognize ordinary income in the year of disposition in an amount equal to the excess of the fair market value of the shares at the time of exercise (or, if less, the amount realized on the disposition of the shares), over the exercise price paid for the shares, and capital gain or loss for any other difference between the sale price and the exercise price. The Company is not entitled to an income tax deduction on the grant or exercise of an ISO or on the optionee’s disposition of the shares after satisfying the holding period requirement described above. If the holding periods are not satisfied, the Company will be entitled to a deduction in the year the optionee disposes of the shares in an amount equal to the ordinary income recognized by the optionee, subject to the deduction limitations described in “Company Deduction and Section 162(m)” below.

14Proposals for Vote2024 PROXY STATEMENT MARRIOTT VACATIONS WORLDWIDE


In order for an option to qualify for ISO tax treatment, the grant of the option must satisfy various other conditions more fully described in the Internal Revenue Code. The Company does not guarantee that any option will qualify for ISO tax treatment even if the option is intended to qualify for such treatment. In the event an option intended to be an ISO fails to so qualify, it will be taxed as an NQSO described below.

An optionee is not taxed on the grant of an NQSO. On exercise, the optionee recognizes ordinary income equal to the difference between the exercise price and the fair market value of the shares acquired on the date of exercise. The Company is entitled to an income tax deduction in the year of exercise in the amount recognized by the optionee as ordinary income, subject to the deduction limitations described in “Company Deduction and Section 162(m)” below. The optionee’s gain (or loss) on subsequent disposition of the shares is long-term capital gain (or loss) if the shares are held for at least one year following exercise, and otherwise is short-term capital gain (or loss). The Company does not receive a deduction for any such capital gain.

SARs

Generally, the recipient of a SAR will not recognize any taxable income at the time the SAR is granted. If the SAR is settled in cash, the cash will be taxable as ordinary income to the recipient at the time that it is received. If the SAR is settled in shares, the recipient will recognize ordinary income equal to the excess of the fair market value of the shares on the day they are received over any amounts paid by the recipient for the shares. The Company generally is entitled to a deduction with respect to a SAR at the same time the recipient recognizes ordinary income with respect thereto.

Restricted Stock and RSUs

Grantees of restricted stock or RSUs do not recognize income at the time of the grant. When the award vests or is paid, the grantee generally recognizes ordinary income in an amount equal to the fair market value of the stock or units at such time, and the Company will receive a corresponding deduction, subject to the deduction limitations described in “Company Deduction and Section 162(m)” below. However, no later than 30 days after a participant receives an Award of restricted stock, pursuant to Section 83(b) of the Internal Revenue Code, the participant may elect to recognize taxable ordinary income in an amount equal to the fair market value of the shares at the time of receipt. Provided that the election is made in a timely manner, when the restrictions on the shares lapse, the participant will not recognize any additional income. If the participant forfeits the shares to the Company (e.g., upon the participant’s termination prior to vesting), the participant may not claim a deduction with respect to the income recognized as a result of the election. Subject to the deduction limitations described in “Company Deduction and Section 162(m)” below, the Company generally will be entitled to a deduction with respect to restricted stock and RSUs at the same time the recipient recognizes ordinary income with respect thereto.

Share-Based Awards

Grantees of share-based awards generally are required to recognize ordinary income in an amount equal to the excess of the fair market value of the shares on the date the shares are granted over the purchase price (if any) paid for the shares, unless the shares are subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture, in which case the award will be subject to the same taxation rule as apply to restricted stock as described in “Restricted Stock and RSUs” above. Subject to the deduction limitations described in “Company Deduction and Section 162(m),” the Company generally will be entitled to a deduction with respect to stock awards at the same time the recipient recognizes ordinary income with respect thereto.

Company Deduction and Section 162(m)

The Company generally will be entitled to a deduction for federal income tax purposes as described above with respect to each type of award. Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code limits, however, the deduction we can take for compensation, including compensation pursuant to awards made under the Restated Plan, that we pay to our covered employees (generally employees who have served as our Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer or who have been one of our other three other highest paid officers since 2017) to $1.0 million per year per individual.

Code Section 409A

Awards under the Restated Plan may constitute, or provide for, a deferral of compensation under Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code. If the requirements of Section 409A are not complied with, then holders of such awards may be taxed earlier than would otherwise be the case (e.g., at the time of vesting instead of the time of payment) and may be subject to an additional 20% penalty tax and, potentially, interest and penalties. We have sought to structure the Restated Plan, and we expect to seek to structure awards under the Restated Plan, to be exempt from Section 409A or comply with Section 409A. The Restated Plan and any applicable awards may be modified to exempt the awards from Section 409A or comply with the requirements of Section 409A.

New Plan Benefits; Aggregate Past Grants Under the 2020 Plan

We cannot currently determine the awards that may be granted under the Restated Plan in the future to the executive officers named in this Proxy Statement or to other officers, employees, or other persons, provided, however, that pursuant to our non-employee director compensation program, non-employee directors are currently eligible to receive, at the time of the Company’s annual meeting, an annual equity grant with a grant date value of $175,000 for each non-employee director other than the Chairman and $250,000 for the Chairman. As a result, we anticipate our non-employee directors will receive the foregoing grants, as applicable, subject to continued service through the grant date as such may be adjusted by the CPC in the future. Other than the

foregoing, the CPC will make determinations regarding equity awards from time to time. The following table sets forth, with respect to the individuals and groups named below: the aggregate number of shares subject to SARs granted under the 2020 Plan (whether or not outstanding, vested or forfeited, as applicable) as of March 11, 2024, and the aggregate number of shares subject to awards of restricted stock and restricted stock units (including performance-based restricted stock units, calculated at target performance) granted under the 2020 Plan (whether or not outstanding, vested or forfeited, as applicable) as of March 11, 2024.

The Compensation Policy CommitteeCPC made the following key compensation decisions for 2021,2023, which are discussed in greater detail in the following pages:

 

Compensation Element Compensation Decisions
Base Salary Each of ourOur named executive officers received a base salary increase for fiscal 2023 of between 1.5%approximately 3%-5% except for Mr. Geller and 7% effective asMr. Terry. In determining the amount of December 26, 2020 based onthe adjustments, the CPC considered individual contributions to overall corporate results, company budget, and salary level relative to market.market and prior compensation actions. In connection with Mr. Geller’s promotion to President and CEO, as his compensation was significantly below the market median for such position, he received a 39.69% increase for 2023, bringing him closer to, but still below, market median. In connection with the CPC’s desire to bring Mr. Terry’s compensation more in line with the market median for his position, he was awarded a 15.79% base pay increase. With Mr. Marino’s promotion to Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, effective October 2023, he received a base pay increase of 38.47%. As he remains below the market median, the CPC intends to bring his compensation more in line with market median for his position over time.
Annual Bonus Due to the unpredictable impactFor 2023, our financial objectives, which account for 80% of the COVID-19 pandemic onamounts payable under our business, in 2021, our Board elected to use two 6-month measurement periods to determine any cashmanagement bonus payable for performance during 2021. For the period January 1—June 30, 2021, the bonus was solely based upon achieving Adjusted EBITDA metrics. For the period July 1—December 31, 2021, the bonus was based on bothplan (the “Bonus Plan”), consisted of Adjusted EBITDA and Total Revenue (which are defined below). The remaining 20% of amounts payable under the Bonus Plan was based on strategic initiatives of associate engagement, inclusion and diversity, and customer satisfaction.

COVID-19 Response Actions in 2021

To recognize management’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic, including efforts to conserve cash, reopen resorts and sales centers, implement safety protocols, manage return to office and related on-going safety issues for associates, among other measures, and to retain executive officers who were particularly vulnerable to recruitment efforts from companies not in the hospitality industry, the Compensation Policy Committee reviewed the Company’s 2019 performance in comparison to 2020 and 2021 and exercised its discretion to approve modifications to the performance criteria to be applied to the Performance Units for the performance period that began on January 1, 2019 and ended on December 31, 2021 (the “2019-2021 Performance Units”). The Compensation Policy Committee modified the performance period with respect to the 2019-2021 Performance Units so that rather than evaluating Company performance based upon one cumulative three-year performance period beginning on January 1, 2019 and ending on December 31, 2021, the Committee evaluated Company performance with respect to three separate annual periods, one for each of the 2019, 2020, and 2021 fiscal years of the Company. The cumulative Adjusted EBITDA and ROIC goals originally established for the three-year performance period resulted in achievement of 0% of the target Performance Units. The equal weighting of the three separate annual performance periods, with 2020 and 2021 achievement at zero percent, yielded an achievement and a payout of 33.18% of target.

In addition, to address the economic volatility faced in 2020 and 2021, as well as expected volatility in 2022, the Company’s executives enacted several measures to mitigate the impact of the pandemic noted above, such as reopening resorts and sales centers and implementing safety protocols for associates, owners and guests. As a result of these actions, the Company returned to pre-pandemic levels of key metrics, including contract sales and EBITDA, by the end of third-quarter 2021. In recognition of their contributions to the Company’s response and recovery, delivering shareholder value through an increase in the Company’s stock price in excess of pre-pandemic pricing, and building a solid foundation for growth, and in order to retain key talent, the Compensation Policy Committee awarded the executive team a one-time equity grant on December 15, 2021. The RSUs vest in full after a three-year period and are subject to forfeiture if an executive officer terminates his or her employment with the Company, with the exception of the grants to Mr. Weisz and Mr. Cunningham, which will not be forfeited in the event of a termination due to retirement, but will continue to vest at the end of the three-year period.

Due to the uncertainty with three-year forecasting as a result of uncertainty due to the COVID-19 pandemic, our equity awards for 2021 were a combination of SARs and RSUs, with 50% consisting of SARs and 50% consisting of RSUs, based on grant date value. The amount of each named executive officer’s award was determined by considering market data and internal factors.

PHILOSOPHY

The Compensation Policy CommitteeCPC has approved, and periodically reviews, compensation principles that form the basis of our compensation philosophy and reflect our belief that strong and consistent leadership is the key to long-term success in our industry. Accordingly, our compensation program is designed around the following three principles:

 

Drive Stockholder Value: Executive officers should be paid in a manner that is primarily focused on driving stockholder value. Therefore, equity compensation is and has been a significant component of total pay opportunity for the named executive officers.

Motivate and Balance Short-term and Long-term Performance: Compensation should be designed to motivate executive officers to perform their duties in ways that would help achieve current year as well as longer-term objectives. This has been achieved by offering a mix of short-term cash-based and long-term equity-based incentives.

Retain Talent: The compensation program must be competitive in order to attract key talent from within and outside of our industry and retain key talent at costs consistent with market practice. We work to achieve this, in part, through our review of the market data and internal pay equity considerations described below in making compensation decisions. The Compensation Policy Committee seeks to establish compensation generally consistent with the median in total direct compensation, while also considering performance and scope of job.

COMPENSATION PROGRAM PRINCIPLES AND GOVERNANCE

Pay for Performance is Key Compensation Program Principle

A large portion of the total pay opportunity for our named executive officers is performance based or tied to stock performance. This means that it is contingent upon achieving specific results that are essential to the Company’s short- and long-term success and growth in stockholder value. As described in more detail in the following pages, the performance-based components of the 20212023 compensation program include annual and long-term incentives that are comprised of Performance Units, SARs and RSUs, temporarily shifting the mix to exclude performance units due to the uncertainty resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. With the 2022 grants, the mix of equity was restored to the prior 2020 mix, which includes approximately 50% performance units, 30% SARs and 20% RSUs. The Compensation Policy CommitteeCPC has not established a specific formula for the allocation of performance-based compensation components and instead retains the discretion to modify the allocation from year to year. The chart below reflects the percentage of each named executive officer’s total target compensation that was performance-based in 2021:2023:

Additional Principles and Corporate Governance Policies

Our executive compensation programs contain features that are intended to embody our compensation principles and promote strong executive compensation corporate governance.

 

We have a clawback policy applicable to incentive compensation paid to our executive officers and directors, which is in addition to the clawback provision that applies to equity awards under the Marriott Vacations Worldwide 2020 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2020 Equity Plan”) and the Marriott Vacations Worldwide Corporation Stock and Cash Incentive Plan (the “Prior Equity Plan” and, together with the 2020 Equity Plan, the “Equity Plans”).

We do not provide for a gross-up of excise taxes on any “parachute payments” that could become payable in connection with a change in control.

Executive officers are provided only limited perquisites and are not provided with tax gross-ups with respect to such perquisites.

The Equity Plans do not include an “evergreen” provision.

We cannot, without stockholder approval, “reprice” stock options or SARs by reducing the exercise price of such stock option or SAR, exchanging such stock option or SAR for a new award with a lower exercise price, or exchanging such stock option or SAR for cash (other than in connection with specified corporate transactions).

We do not provide “single trigger” change in control benefits, except with respect to equity awards which are not retained or replaced with substitute awards following a change in control.

We have stock ownership guidelines that require our Chief Executive Officer to own shares of our common stock (as determined under the guidelines) with a market value equal to five times base salary and other executive officers to own shares of our common stock with a market value equal to two to three times annual base salary. All but two of our executive officers were in compliance with these guidelines as of the end of 2021. The executive officers who were not in compliance with the guidelines were newly appointed on November 20, 2020, and October 16, 2021 and each has five calendar years, or by year end 2025 and 2026, respectively, to achieve target ownership.

Equity grants are made on a consistent schedule and are not made in anticipation of significant developments that may impact the price of our common shares. Annual grants are typically made during the first quarter, after the release of our earnings for the prior year and guidance for the current year, which is intended to ensure that we do not make equity grants when we have such material, non-public information.

We have a clawback policy applicable to incentive compensation paid to our executive officers and directors, which is in addition to the clawback provision that applies to equity awards under the Marriott Vacations Worldwide Corporation 2020 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2020 Equity Plan”) and the Marriott Vacations Worldwide Corporation Stock and Cash Incentive Plan (the “Prior Equity Plan” and, together with the 2020 Equity Plan, the “Equity Plans”). The Clawback Policy was adopted in May 2023 and is in compliance with the NYSE rules for erroneously awarded compensation. In addition, we maintain an Other Conduct Clawback Policy whereby the Board may recoup compensation received by a named executive officer who has engaged in conduct that violates our Business Conduct Guide or in willful misconduct or fraud that causes harm to the Company. Compensation received up to three years prior to the restatement or conduct and after the date of adoption of the policy is subject to potential recoupment under the policy.

 

We do not provide for a gross-up of excise taxes on any “parachute payments” that could become payable in connection with a change in control.

COMPENSATION PROCESS

Market Data

To assist in determining the levels of compensation for our named executive officers in 2021,2023, Exequity LLP (“Exequity”), the Compensation Policy Committee’sCPC’s compensation consultant, recommended an appropriate peer group for approval by the Compensation Policy CommitteeCPC and management. Considerations for developing the peer group included company size as measured by revenues (generally one-half to two times the Company’s revenues) and market capitalization (companies with very low or very high market capitalization relative to the Company were excluded), industry and business model similarities, and trading on a major exchange. Human resources management analyzed market data collected by Exequity, including base salary and target short- and long-term incentive opportunities for each of the named executive officers.

The companies in the peer group used as the basis for 20212023 compensation decisions, which are the same companies used as the basis for the Compensation Policy Committee’sCPC’s 2022, 2021 and 2020 compensation decisions, consisted of the following:

In addition, in part due to the fact that there are very few public company direct competitors, the Compensation Policy CommitteeCPC determined that it was appropriate to consider the compensation practices of a general industry peer group as an additional reference point for its 20212023 executive pay decisions. Accordingly, the Compensation Policy CommitteeCPC considers the compensation practices of a general industry peer group consisting of forty companies in the hospitality, consumer products and retail industry that participated in Equilar’s Top 25the Aon Survey Group database (i.e., 20 hospitality, consumer products and retail companies with revenues greater than and 20 hospitality, consumer products and retail companies with revenues less than the Company’s revenues).

Tally Sheets

On an annual basis, the Compensation Policy CommitteeCPC reviews “tally sheets” prepared by management for each of the named executive officers. The tally sheet includes, among other things, total annual compensation, the value of unexercised or unvested equity compensation awards, and amounts payable upon termination of employment under various circumstances, including following a change in control. The Compensation Policy CommitteeCPC did not recommend specific changes to the executive compensation program for 20212023 in response to a review of tally sheets in 2021,2023, although it used the tally sheet information as one data point when considering executive compensation matters.

Role of the Compensation Policy Committee

Our Compensation Policy CommitteeCPC is responsible for reviewing and approving the Company’s executive compensation policies and plan designs, including compensation of our named executive officers. The Compensation Policy CommitteeCPC considers various factors in determining compensation levels for named executive officers, including the officer’s responsibilities and performance, the effectiveness of our programs in supporting the Company’s short- and long-term strategic objectives, and overall financial performance. Additionally, our Compensation Policy CommitteeCPC Chair, Dianna F. Morgan, with input from our Chairman, William J. Shaw, makes recommendations to the Compensation Policy CommitteeCPC with respect to the compensation of our CEO, Mr. Weisz.CEO.

To this end, our Compensation Policy CommitteeCPC conducts an annual review of executive officer pay levels, reviews market data provided by the independent consultant, and approves changes to program designs, based on an assessment of competitive market practice and emerging trends. Additionally, the Compensation Policy CommitteeCPC evaluates the risks associated with the Company’s executive compensation programs.

Our Compensation Policy CommitteeCPC approved the total compensation packages for each of the named executive officers, including base salary, annual bonus targets, actual bonuses earned, and equity awards.

Role of the Compensation Consultant

In 2021,2023, the Compensation Policy CommitteeCPC engaged Exequity to provide executive compensation consulting services. Exequity’s services to the Compensation Policy CommitteeCPC have included updates on best practices and market trends in executive and director compensation, recommendations regarding executive and director compensation, and an independent review of compensation proposals by the Company’s senior management. Exequity attended meetings of the Compensation Policy CommitteeCPC at the Committee’s request and was available to provide guidance as questions and issues arose. During 2021,2023, Exequity did not perform any services for the Company other than in connection with providing advice and recommendations on executive and director compensation. The Compensation Policy CommitteeCPC determined that Exequity is independent after consideration of the SEC independence factors.factors set forth in the NYSE Listed Company Manual.

Role of Management

At the request of the Compensation Policy Committee,CPC, the CEO presents individual pay recommendations for each of the named executive officers, other than himself. In forming his recommendations, he is advised by human resources management, including our Chief Human Resources Officer and our Senior Vice President, Global Total Rewards & HRIS,Leader, and the independent compensation consultant with regard to assessment of individual contributions, achievement of performance objectives and other qualitative factors. The Compensation Policy CommitteeCPC considers these recommendations in approving the pay levels of each named executive officer. The CEO does not make recommendations concerning his own compensation.

MARRIOTT VACATIONS WORLDWIDE 2024 PROXY STATEMENTExecutive and Director Compensation37


The CEO and members of human resources management regularly attend Compensation Policy CommitteeCPC meetings. Human resources management typically presents recommendations for changes to program designs and individual pay levels for executive officers, taking into consideration individual performance of each incumbent, appropriate benchmarking information and issues that may arise from an accounting, legal or tax perspective. After review of the 2023 Market Data, and the above considerations, it was determined that total target direct compensation for Mr. Geller, Mr. Terry and Mr. Marino were below market median; all other named executive officers were at median.

Adjusted EBITDA is a financial measure that is not prescribed by GAAP. Please refer to Appendix A for a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net income, which is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, as well as our reasons for presenting this measure. The Adjusted EBITDA target for First Half 2021 was set at $175$971 million, a level we believed to be achievable but not certain to be met.

For First Half 2021, the named executive officers were eligible to receive a bonus solely based on the achievement of the following Adjusted EBITDA targets:

For Second Half 2021, the named executive officers were eligible to receive a bonus based on the achievement of the Adjusted EBITDA targets and the achievement of the Total Revenue targets, set forth below. For purposes of the Bonus Plan, “Total Revenue” means total revenue for the second half of 2021,2023 fiscal year, excluding cost reimbursement revenues (calculated by subtracting the Company’s first half results reported on its second quarter Form 10-Q from the

For each of the financial measures, achievement falling between two of the stated performance achievement levels resulted in the payment for that portion of the bonus being interpolated between the corresponding bonus levels, except that there is no interpolation between 0% and 25%. Accordingly, there is no payout if achievement is below the threshold level of achievement of 25%.

For First Half 2021, In addition to the financial performance measures, the Bonus Plan for the named executive officers included performance measures based on corporate responsibility, measuring associate engagement, inclusion and diversity and customer satisfaction weighted 20% of the total bonus opportunity. This performance measure was approved by the CPC and subsequently evaluated objectively, and, like Adjusted EBITDA and Total Revenue targets, is intended to establish high standards, consistent with our quality goals, which we believed were achievable but not certain to be met. “Associate Engagement” and “Inclusion and Diversity” are represented by the assessment of our overall associate engagement index and the inclusion and diversity index for the entire company, both measured by an independent third party. Additionally, customer satisfaction was based on the results of customer and guest satisfaction surveys we developed. Different surveys are used for different aspects of our business, such as Guest Satisfaction, Sales and Marketing Satisfaction and Owner Services Satisfaction. These surveys address topics such as overall satisfaction, quality of service, and cleanliness of properties. We believe that these performance measures are important contributors to achieving success within our industry. Payout under this performance measure can be zero or at threshold, target or maximum award levels or, in most cases, interpolated between award levels. However, there is no interpolation between zero and threshold.

Adjusted EBITDA was $218.5adjusted by the CPC for short-term incentive purposes (i.e., annual management bonus purposes). The CPC reviewed certain items that impacted Adjusted EBITDA in 2023, as defined previously, that were not considered when setting the performance targets. For purposes of 2023, the CPC modified the achievement level of the Adjusted EBITDA goal favorably for forecasted profit related to the impact of the wildfire devastation on the island of Maui, which has been more fully discussed in the 2023 Annual Report. This adjustment increased the achievement level of the Adjusted EBITDA goal by approximately $48 million.

Total Revenue was adjusted by the CPC for short-term incentive purposes (i.e., annual management bonus purposes). The CPC reviewed certain items that impacted Total Revenue in 2023, as defined previously, that were not considered when setting the performance targets. For purposes of 2023, the CPC modified the achievement level of the Total Revenue goal favorably by $57 million orfor the impact of the Maui wildfires.

Reflecting the bonus adjustments for the 2023 short-term incentive payout, Adjusted EBITDA was $809 million, Total Revenue was $3,360 million, and the corporate responsibility component achieved 132.5% of target, resulting in a payout of 199.45%26.5% of the target bonus for the period, which resulted in the following payments for our named executive officers:

Effective October 16, 2021, Mr. TerryMarino was promoted to the role of Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer and received anprovided with a promotion stock award with a grant date value of $250,000. In$250,000, in addition to his $250,000 annual award while in his prior role, Mr. Terry received an annual equity award with a grant date value of $235,000. In connection with the promotion, he received a grant of equity awardsserving as described in more detail below.Senior Vice President, Financial Planning & Analysis.

The amount of each named executive officer’s award, as well as the differences in the award amounts among the named executive officers, were determined by considering market data (as described above) and internal factors, including pay equity with other officers, differences in responsibilities, job performance, and future potential. The Compensation Policy Committee’sCPC’s consideration of the external market pay practices of various companies discussed above under “Market Data” resulted in the determination to increase the value of the awards for each of the named executive officers. Based on the review of market data, our named executive officers’ equity grants were significantly below the market median and the CPC increased the annual grant date value of the awards between 10%—25%, with the exception of Mr. Weisz, Mr. MillerGeller and Mr. Geller. Total target directTerry, whose total compensation for Mr. Weisz wasremained significantly below market median following the increases in equity awards for 2021; all other named executive officers were at median. The awards are reflected in the Summary Compensation Table for 20212023 and the Grants of Plan-Based Awards for Fiscal Year 2021.2023. The value of the awards was allocated among Performance Units, SARs and RSUs as follows:

Performance Units

SARs

RSUs

  50%   20   30 20

The allocations were set so as to advance the executives’ alignment with stockholders by increasing their equity ownership, while tying a portion of the awards to future stock price performance. The RSUs are time-based stock awards that focus on retention of the executives and SARs are granted to further align the executives’ and stockholders’ interests by requiring an increase in stock price in order for the executives to recognize value from the awards.

The economic volatility faced in 2021 and beyond required analysis and consideration to adjust the mix of equity awards to exclude performance-based three-year restricted stock units for the 2021 fiscal year only. The Company has returned to its traditional equity mix effective with the 2022 fiscal year. Equity awards granted March 2021 to the executive officers represent an even split between time-based RSUs and SARs. Our decision to make this change for 2021 was predicated on the inability to accurately predict one and three years of performance metrics. To mitigate the risk of making projections with respect to the metric in the midst of such economic uncertainty (which may result in a windfall to our executive officers), the Company believed that it was appropriate to grant equity awards solely in the form of RSUs and SARs, which, although time-based, continue to align executives’ interests with those of shareholders by keeping them dedicated to stock price appreciation.

In connection with Mr. Terry’s promotion to the role of Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, he was awarded RSUs with a grant date value of $250,000 that will vest equally in four annual installments beginning one year from the grant date of November 16, 2021. The award is captured in the Grants of Plan Based Awards table.

The Compensation Policy Committee awarded the executive team a one-time equity grant on December 15, 2021 to address the economic volatility faced in 2020 and 2021, as well as expected volatility in 2022. The Company’s executives enacted several measures to mitigate the impact of the pandemic noted above, such as reopening resorts and sales centers and implementing safety protocols for associates, owners and guests. As a result of these actions, the Company returned to pre-pandemic levels of key metrics, including contract sales and EBITDA, by the end of third-quarter 2021. In recognition of their contributions to the Company’s response and recovery, delivering shareholder value through an increase in the Company’s stock price in excess of pre-pandemic pricing, and building a solid foundation for growth, and in order to retain key talent, the one-time equity grant was awarded. The RSUs vest in full after a three-year period and are subject to forfeiture if an executive officer terminates his or her employment with the Company, with the exception of the grants to Mr. Weisz and Mr. Cunningham,which will not be forfeited in the event of a termination due to retirement, but will continue to vest at the end of the three-year period.

Performance Units Vested in 2021

Following the end of 2021, each of the named executive officers received shares upon the vesting of the Performance Units granted in 2019. These performance units represented2023 represent the right to receive shares of our common stock at the end of the performance period beginning January 1, 20192023 and ending December 31, 2021,2025, in an amount determined based on the Company’s cumulative achievement over the performance period with respect to two performance objectives: Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted ROIC,return on invested capital (“ROIC”), each weighted equally. “Adjusted ROIC” means Adjusted EBIT, defined as Adjusted EBITDA less Depreciation and Amortization as reported in the Company’s annual reports on Form 10-K over the performance period, as a percentage of Net Total Invested Capital. “Net Total Invested Capital” means the average of the beginning of the performance period and the end of the performance period total assets less current liabilities (excluding non-securitized debt) and securitized debt, provided that any cash in excess of $150 million will be disregarded for purposes of determining total assets.

The Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted ROIC targets were set at levels we believed to be achievable but not certain to be met.

We used Adjusted EBITDA as a performance objective for the Bonus Plan and the Performance Units because the CPC believes that utilizing the same metric for both the short- and long-term compensation programs ensures that short-term management decisions are not influenced by short-term gain at the expense of long-term performance. By using the same metric, the CPC is promoting sustained performance of the Company in this area over both the shorter- and longer-term.

The number of Performance Units actually earned will be determined following the end of the performance period and will be equal to 50% of the granted number of Performance Units multiplied by a percentage corresponding to the achievement level of the Adjusted EBITDA performance objective plus 50% of the granted number of Performance Units multiplied by a percentage corresponding to the achievement level of the Adjusted ROIC performance objective. The number of shares that will be received can range from zero to two times the number of Performance Units granted and will be based on the following achievement levels, which were approved by the CPC in February 2023.

The Compensation Policy Committee determined that such modification was necessary to recognize management’s responseare or potentially are injurious to the pandemic, including efforts to conserve cash, reopen resorts and sales centers, implement safety protocols, manage return to office and related ongoing safety issues for associates, among other measures, and to retain executive officers, who were particularly vulnerable to recruitment efforts from companies not in the hospitality business. The cumulative Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted ROIC goals originally established for the three-year performance period resulted in achievement of 0% of the target Performance Units. The equal weighting of the three separate annual performance periods, with 2020 and 2021 achievement at zero percent, yielded an achievement of 33.18% of the target.

Following the September 2018 acquisition of ILG, in February 2019 the Compensation Policy Committee approved the grant of performance units to executive officers withperiod, a three-year vesting period ending on December 31, 2021. Executive officers were eligible to earn between 0% and 250% of the target based on the achievement of specified transformation synergy savings for the department headed by the respective executive officers. Transformation synergy savings were reviewed by a Board sub-committee comprised of the Board Chair and both the current and immediate past Chairs of the Audit Committee. Target transformation synergy savings for the Company, on an Adjusted EBITDA basis, was $105 million, with the maximum award payable if the Company achieved $140 million of savings. Ongoing run rate savings, on an Adjusted EBITDA basis, as a result of the acquisition was $158 million, or 112.86% of target achievement, with each department achieving the stated maximum achievement, resulting in payout of 250% of the targeted amount for each executive officer. COVID related impact adjustments are not included or considered in the run-rate savings. The value of the vested awards is included in the Options Exercised and Stock Vested During Fiscal Year 2021 table.

2022 Compensation Actions in Response to COVID-19 Pandemic

The COVID-19 pandemic is continuing to adversely affect our financial performance in 2022. In response to these ongoing economic challenges, we have enacted several measures to continue to mitigate the impact of the pandemic on the Company’s financial performance. We expect these actions to better position the Company for longer-term recovery and growth while continuing to preserve our cash and liquidity. Annual equity awards for Named Executive Officers and other executive officers returned to the pre-COVID distribution between restricted stock units, stock appreciation rights and performance units. Short-term incentives (annual management bonus plan) for Named Executive Officers and other executive officers partially returned to pre-pandemic design, substantially financially focused on Company Adjusted EBITDA and Total Revenue, with a smallpro rata portion of the incentive based upon associate engagement.Performance Units will continue to vest on the same terms. If a named executive officer dies or is disabled during the performance period, a pro-rata portion of the Performance Units will vest assuming achievement at the target level of performance.

Other Compensation

Perquisites

In 2021,2023, we offered minimal perquisites consisting of only a limited number of compensatory room nights, a minimalan executive physical benefit and a status upgrade in the Marriott Bonvoy program. The value of these benefits was included in the executives’ wages for tax purposes, and we did not provide tax gross-ups to the executives with respect to these benefits. The Company owns a fractional interest in a corporate jet to support the conduct of its business. Executives are only permitted to utilize the jet for personal purposes if approved by the Company’s CEO and the executive pays the hourly costs of such flight. An executive physical exam benefit was approved for offering in 2024.

MARRIOTT VACATIONS WORLDWIDE 2022 PROXY STATEMENTExecutive and Director Compensation31


Other Benefits

Named executive officers can participate in the same plans and programs offered to all our eligible employees. Some of these benefits were paid for by the executives, such as elective deferrals under the Marriott Vacations Worldwide Corporation 401(k) Retirement Savings Plan (the “401(k) Plan”) or the Marriott Vacations Worldwide Corporation Deferred Compensation Plan (the “MVW Deferred Compensation Plan”), vision coverage, long-term disability, group life and accidental death and dismemberment insurance, and health care and dependent care spending accounts. Other benefits were paid for or subsidized by us, such as any company match under the 401(k) Plan, any employer credits under the MVW Deferred Compensation Plan, certain group medical and dental benefits, short-term disability, business travel accident insurance and tuition reimbursement.

Long-Term Disability Plan

Our named executive officers and approximately 500425 other associates are eligible to participate in the Marriott Vacations Worldwide Corporation Executive Long-Term Disability Plan (the “LTD Plan”). The purpose of the LTD Plan is to improve the ability of the Company to attract and retain executive and senior level associates by providing such associates with enhanced long-term disability insurance. The LTD Plan is subject to certain provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended.

The LTD Plan consists of two parts: (1) a group long-term disability policy (the “Group Policy”) that pays, after a 180-day elimination period, 60 percent of eligible compensation, which initially consists of base pay, bonus and incentive compensation (“Eligible Compensation”), capped at $10,000 per month, to a specific age, which initially is age 65 (the “Limiting Age”), the entire cost of which is paid by the Company; and (2) an individual disability insurance policy (the “Individual Policy”) that pays 75 percent of Eligible Compensation up to $10,000 per month, to the Limiting Age. We pay 100% of the premium cost required for the Individual Policy for our named executive officers and pay for the first $1,000 of coverage under the Individual Policy for other participants. The right to receive any payment under the Group Policy will cease upon termination of employment. The Individual Policy is portable; the participant may continue coverage by paying the full premiums after termination of employment. The total maximum benefit amount for the combination of the two parts of the LTD Plan is $20,000 per month or $240,000 per year.

Life Insurance

We pay for life insurance with a payout to designated beneficiaries on death for Mr. WeiszGeller in the amount of two times his base salary (up to a maximum of $1.5 million), and for each other named executive officer in the amount of such officer’s base salary (up to a maximum of $750,000).

MARRIOTT VACATIONS WORLDWIDE 2024 PROXY STATEMENTExecutive and Director Compensation41


401(k) Plan

Our named executive officers are eligible to participate in our 401(k) Plan on substantially the same basis as our other associates. Participants in the 401(k) Plan may contribute a portion of their compensation to the plan each year. Our highly compensated employees, including the named executive officers, may be subject to limits on the amounts of their contributions to the plan that are not applicable to non-highly compensated employees to the extent required by applicable tax law. We determine on an annual basis whether to make matching employer contributions, which will not exceed six percent of the participant’s eligible compensation, or such other limits that are imposed by applicable tax law. Any employer contributions that we made to the 401(k) Plan accounts of the named executive officers for 20212023 are shown in the “All Other Compensation” column of the Summary Compensation Table below.

Deferred Compensation

Our named executive officers and approximately 1,1001,455 other associates are eligible to participate in the MVW Deferred Compensation Plan. In addition, some of our named executive officers have balances under the Marriott International, Inc. Executive Deferred Compensation Plan (“Marriott Deferred Compensation Plan”), in which many of them were able to participate prior to the Spin-Offspin-off from Marriott International, Inc. in 2011 (the “Spin-Off”"Spin-Off").

We provide the MVW Deferred Compensation Plan because the Compensation Policy CommitteeCPC wishes to permit certain of our employees to defer the obligation to pay taxes on compensation and bonuses that they are entitled to receive. The MVW Deferred Compensation Plan permits them to do this, while also receiving interesta fixed rate of return (determined annually prior to start of plan year) or a rate of return based on various market-based investment alternatives on deferred amounts. We believe that providing this benefit is important as a retention and recruitment tool as many of the companies with which we compete for executive talent provide a similar plan for their senior employees.

Under the terms of the MVW Deferred Compensation Plan, each participant may elect to defer receipt of up to 80 percent of his or her base salary, bonuses, non-equity incentive plan compensation and/or commissions until such future date as he or she elects in accordance with the terms of the MVW Deferred Compensation Plan. The Company may credit participants’ accounts with additional amounts, referred to as employer credits, in an amount equal to any matching contributions that the participant did not receive for a year under the 401(k) Plan, or any successor plan thereto, due to the participant’s election to defer amounts under the MVW Deferred Compensation Plan. In addition, the Company may, in its sole discretion, credit participants’ accounts with additional employer credits which will vest at a rate of 25 percent per year on the first four anniversaries of the date the discretionary employer credit was allocated to the participant’s account (unless otherwise determined), provided that the participant remains in continued service with the Company. On a participant’s separation from service, unvested discretionary employer credits are generally forfeited. Upon a change in control of the Company, a participant’s death, or a participant’s retirement after reaching age 55 and completing ten continuous years of service, all employer credits will immediately vest in full.

A participant in the MVW Deferred Compensation Plan may elect to receive his or her deferred amounts and vested employer credits in a lump sum or in installments over five, ten, fifteen or twenty years at either a separation from service or upon any of the first five anniversaries of a separation from service.

Alternatively, a participant may elect to receive his or her deferred amounts and vested employer credits in a lump sum in January of a specified year, so long as employer credits are deferred for at least four years and all other amounts are deferred for at least three years. The obligationsCompany has adopted a special grantor trust to provide protection, up to the amounts set aside in the trust, against the risk of shifting corporate priorities, the Company’s inability to pay benefits, and/or the occurrence of a change in control. The trust does not protect against the risk of corporate insolvency. To enable the Company to meet its financial commitment under the MVW Deferred Compensation Plan are not funded byplan, the Company, and thereforeby way of the established trust, has acquired a Corporate Owned Life Insurance policy on the lives of certain participants have an unsecured contractual commitment from us to pay the amounts due under the MVW Deferred Compensation Plan.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

The Marriott Vacations Worldwide Corporation Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”) is intended to provide the Company’s eligible employees, including our named executive officers, with an opportunity to participate in the Company’s success by permitting them to acquire an ownership interest in the Company through periodic payroll deductions that will be applied towards the purchase of shares of our common stock at a five percent discount from the market price.average of the high and low stock price on the last day of the offering period.

Change in Control Arrangements

Our named executive officers are participants in the Marriott Vacations Worldwide Corporation Change in Control Severance Plan (the “Change in Control Plan”). Adoption of the Change in Control Plan was intended to maximize stockholder value by retaining key executives through the closing of a Change in Control (as defined below), and to motivate executives to drive business success independent of the possible occurrence of a Change in Control. All of our executive officers are eligible to participate in the Change in Control Plan. Under the Change in Control Plan, the receipt of benefits is subject to a “double trigger,” under which benefits, including the acceleration of vesting and/or settlement of equity and cash awards, are available only if the participant’s employment is terminated in connection with the Change in Control unless the awards are not assumed in connection with the Change in Control, in which case a single trigger applies. A “change in control” occurs if there is a consummation of certain acquisition, merger, sale, liquidation or similar events or there is a change in a majority of Board members as described in the Change in Control Plan (a “Change in Control”).

Under the terms of the Change in Control Plan, and subject to the conditions thereof, an executive officer who participates in the Change in Control Plan will receive severance benefits if his or her employment is terminated involuntarily by the Company or any of its affiliates, other than due to Cause, Total Disability (as those terms are defined in the Change in Control Plan), or death, or is terminated by the executive officer for Good Reason (as defined in the Change in Control Plan), in each case, within two years following a Change in Control of the Company (a “Termination”). Provided that the executive officer executes a waiver and release of claims in favor of the Company, he or she will be entitled to the following severance benefits: (1) a cash severance payment, payable in a lump sum, equal to two times (or three times, in the case of the President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company) the sum of his or her Base Salary and Target Bonus (as those terms are defined in the Change in Control Plan); (2) twenty-four months (or thirty-six months, in the case of the President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company) of Company-subsidized medical, dental and life-insurance coverage for such executive officer and his or her spouse and dependents, at the same benefit level as provided to the executive immediately prior to the Change in Control, or the cash equivalent of the present value of such coverage; (3) any unpaid bonus as of the Termination date for any previously-completed fiscal year; and (4) a pro-rata bonus for the fiscal year in which the executive officer’s employment is terminated.

In addition to receipt of the severance benefits described above, upon Termination, an executive officer’s stock options and other equity-related compensation will be treated as follows: (1) all restricted stock, RSUs or other share-based awards in a form substantially similar to restricted stock or RSUs will become fully vested as of the Termination date; (2) all unvested or unexercisable options, SARs or other share-based awards in a form substantially similar to options or SARs will become fully vested and exercisable until the earlier of the end of (a) their original term or (b) 12 months (or in the case of certain approved retirees, five years) following the Termination date; and (3) all of the executive officer’s other cash performance units or other share-based awards subject to performance-based vesting criteria will be deemed to be fully vested as of the Termination date and will be paid immediately thereafter based on a presumed achievement of target levels of performance. However, in the event that no substitute awards, shares or other equity interests are available as of the Change in Control, the participant will become fully vested in his or her awards as of the Change in Control date, and all awards will be immediately distributed or paid, or, in the case of options and SARs, will become fully exercisable. In the discretion of the Compensation Policy Committee,CPC, distributions may be made in the form of a cash payment equal in amount to the value of the shares distributed or, in the case of options or SARs, the intrinsic value of such awards.

Any payment otherwise due under the Change in Control Plan will be reduced if necessary so that the payment will not constitute a “parachute payment” under Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code. The Change in Control Plan does not provide for a gross-up of excise taxes on such “parachute payments.”

Clawbacks

Under our clawback policy, which is in addition to the clawback provision that applies to equity awards issued under the Equity Plans in the event that the Company is required to restate its financial results due to material non-compliance with any financial reporting requirement under the securities laws as generally applied, except in limited circumstances, the Company will seek to recoup incentive-based compensation that is or was erroneously granted, earned, or vested based wholly or in part upon the attainment of certain restatements of our consolidateda financial statements,reporting measure on or after May 11, 2023. Compensation received up to three years prior to the restatement is subject to potential recoupment under the policy.

In addition, the Company maintains an Other Conduct Clawback Policy whereby the Board may recoup compensation received by a named executive officer who engaged in certain misconduct that contributed to the need for the restatement. Compensation that is based on our achievement of specified financial results, including performance units, may be recouped to the extent such compensation would have been lower had it been determined or calculated based on the financial results as restated. In addition, the Board may recoup any compensation received by a named executive officer who has engaged in conduct that violates our Business Conduct Guide or in willful misconduct or fraud that causes harm to the Company. Compensation received up to three years prior to the restatement or conduct and after the date of adoption of the policy is subject to potential recoupment under the policy.

Under the Equity Plans we have the authority to limit or eliminate the ability of any executive to exercise options and SARs or to receive a distribution of our common stock under RSUs or other stock awards if the executive engaged in criminal or tortious conduct that was injurious to us or engaged in competition with us.

Stock Ownership Guidelines

Under the stock ownership guidelines adopted by the Compensation Policy Committee,CPC, named executive officers are required to achieve the following levels of ownership of our common stock (as a multiple of base salary rate as of the last day of the fiscal year for which compliance is being evaluated):

 

Officer  Level of Ownership

President and Chief Executive Officer

  Five times base salary

President

Three times base salary

Executive Vice President and

Chief Financial Officer

  Three times base salary

Other named executive officers

  Two times base salary

For purposes of determining compliance with the guidelines, the following are considered shares owned by the named executive officer: shares owned by the named executive officer and his or her spouse; shares held by a trust if any beneficiaries of which are the named executive officer or his or her family members; shares held jointly with others; restricted stock awards; restricted stock unit awards; and share equivalents deferred in accordance with our plans. Options, SARs and performance unitsPerformance Units are not considered owned by the named executive officer.

The Compensation Policy CommitteeCPC receives an annual report of the ownership achieved by each named executive officer as of the end of the fiscal year, with the achievement level determined by reference to the average of the closing prices of our common stock for the 20 trading days ending on the last trading day of the fiscal year. The Compensation Policy CommitteeCPC will determine the action to be taken for failure to comply, which action may include (but is not limited to), requiring all or a portion of a named executive officer’s annual bonus to be paid in shares, or requiring retention of shares received upon exercise of stock options or SARs or of shares earned upon the vesting of performance units.

One tenured executive officer fell below the specific holding requirement as a result of the decline in the Company’s stock price as of the December 31, 2023 measurement date and is currently in compliance with the ownership guidelines.

Pledging and Derivative Transactions

Our associates and officers are prohibited from including Marriott Vacations Worldwide stock or other securities in a margin account or pledging such securities as collateral for a loan. We also have a policy that prohibits all associates and officers from shorting the sale of our stock or securities, or from buying, selling, writing or otherwise entering into any other “derivative” transaction related to our stock or securities, including options, warrants, puts, calls, and similar rights.rights other than options or stock appreciation rights issued by the Company.

Risk Considerations

The Compensation Policy CommitteeCPC reviewed a risk assessment to determine whether the amount and components of compensation for our employees and the design of compensation programs might create incentives for excessive risk-taking by our employees. The Compensation Policy CommitteeCPC concluded that our compensation programs do not present risks that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company.

Consideration of Prior Stockholder Advisory Vote to Approve Executive Compensation

At our 20212023 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, our stockholders voted with respect to an advisory resolution on our executive compensation, and 98.97%97.6% of the shares voted at the meeting (exclusive of broker non-votes) were voted in favor of the approval of the compensation of our named executive officers as disclosed in the proxy statement for that Annual Meeting. The Compensation Policy CommitteeCPC considered this support, as well as the other factors discussed in this Compensation Discussion and Analysis, in retaining the fundamental characteristics of our executive compensation program for 2021,2023, and did not make any specific changes to the program as a result of the stockholder vote.

This amount consists of the total of the increase in the value of 48.4 shares of Marriott Vacations Worldwide deferred bonus stock held by Mr. Cunningham during 2021 based on the difference between the Company’s 2021 fiscal year-end closing stock price of $168.98

Executive Compensation Tables and its 2020 fiscal year-end closing stock price of $137.22, and the increase in the value of 484 shares of Marriott International deferred bonus stock held by Mr. Cunningham during 2021 based on the difference between Marriott International’s 2021 fiscal year end closing price of $165.24 and its 2020 fiscal year-end closing stock price of $131.92. All of the shares of deferred bonus stock are fully vested and will be distributed to Mr. Cunningham in ten annual installments commencing on the January 2nd following the date on which he ceases being employed by the Company.

This amount consists of the value of 48.4 shares of Marriott Vacations Worldwide deferred bonus stock held by Mr. Cunningham based on the Company’s 2021 fiscal year-end closing stock price of $168.98, and the value of 484 shares of Marriott International deferred bonus stock held by Mr. Cunningham based on Marriott International’s 2021 fiscal year-end closing stock price of $165.24.


For 2021,2023, we credited amounts subject to the fixed rate of return in participant plan accounts with a rate of return of 3.5 percent.3.5%. For 2021,2023, Marriott International credited participant plan accounts with a rate of return of 3.3 percent,3.6%, determined largely based on Marriott International’s estimated long-term cost of borrowing. To the extent that either of these fixed rates exceeds 120 percent120% of the applicable federal long-term rate, the excess is reported in the Change in Pension Value and Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Earnings column of the Summary Compensation Table. The terms of the MVW Deferred Compensation Plan are described above under “Deferred Compensation Plan.” Under the Marriott Deferred Compensation Plan, the named executive officers could defer the receipt of up to 80 percent80% of their salary, bonus, non-equity incentive plan compensation and/or commissions, which amounts were immediately vested. In addition, the named executive officers were eligible to receive a discretionary match or other discretionary contributions, which were vested when made (other than discretionary contributions made for any year prior to 2009, which vested 25 percent per year for each year that the executive remained employed by Marriott International or us), all of which have vested. Because our executives ceased to be eligible to make further contributions under the Marriott Deferred Compensation Plan as of the Spin-Off, no match or discretionary company contribution was received by any of the named executive officers for 2021.2023.

Our named executive officers can receive a distribution of the vested portion of their Marriott Deferred Compensation Plan accounts upon termination of employment (including retirement or disability) or, in the case of deferrals by the executive (and related earnings), upon a specified future date while still employed (an “in-service distribution”), as elected by the executive. Each plan year’s deferrals have a separate distribution election. Distributions payable upon termination of employment are payable as: (i) a lump sum cash payment; (ii) a series of annual cash installments payable over a designated term not to exceed twenty years; or (iii) five annual cash payments beginning on the sixth January following termination of employment, in each case as elected by the executive. In the case of amounts of $10,000 or less, or when no election regarding the form of distribution was made, the distribution is made in a lump sum. The Spin-Off did not by itself trigger a distribution upon termination of employment under the Marriott Deferred Compensation Plan, and continued employment with the Company is treated as employment for purposes of the Marriott Deferred Compensation Plan.

Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control

The following information relates to benefits that would have been paid or payable had a change in control occurred and/or a named executive officer’s employment with usthe Company terminated as of December 31, 2021,2023, the last business day of our fiscal year. The table below reflects the intrinsic value of unvested stock awards, unvested MVW Deferred Compensation Plan accounts and incentive payments under the Bonus Plan that each named executive officer would have received upon retirement, disability, death, resignation, involuntary termination of employment, or a change in control as of December 31, 20212023 (based on our closing stock price of $168.98$84.89 as of that date).

Each of Mr. Weisz, Mr. Cunningham,Geller, Mr. Miller, and Ms. Marbert, and Mr. Hunter is eligible for “approved retiree” status under the MVW Deferred Compensation Plan and the Equity Plans. Amounts in this column reflect the benefits each would receive if he or she ceased being employed by the Company for any reason on December 31, 20212023 and satisfied the requirements of such plans for qualification as an approved retiree. The amounts for Mr. Terry represent the amounts he received as an approved retiree.

 

2 

Upon resignation or termination with cause, no benefits would be payable. In addition, there are no contractual rights providing for payment upon a termination without cause other than in connection with a change in control. Any such payments would be based upon negotiation at the time of such termination.

 

3 

As described above under “Change in Control Arrangements,” a named executive officer who participates in the Change in Control Plan and who executes a waiver and release of claims in favor of the Company will receive the following severance benefits if his or her employment is terminated involuntarily by the Company or any of its affiliates, other than due to Cause, Total Disability, or death, or is terminated by the named executive officer for Good Reason, in each case, within two years following a Change in Control of the Company: (1) a cash severance payment, payable in a lump sum, equal to two times (or three times, in the case of the Chief Executive Officer of the Company) the sum of his or her Base Salary and Target Bonus; (2) twenty-four months (or thirty-six months, in the case of the Chief Executive Officer of the Company) of Company-subsidized medical, dental and life-insurance coverage for such named executive officer and his or her spouse and dependents, at the same benefit level as provided to the executive immediately prior to the Change in Control, or the cash equivalent of the present value of such coverage (“Benefit Coverage”); (3) any unpaid salary or bonus as of the Termination date for any previously-completed fiscal year (“Earned Amounts”); (4) a pro-rata bonus for the fiscal year in which the named executive officer’s employment is terminated assuming achievement at the target level of performance; (5) vesting of all restricted stock, RSUs or other share-based awards in a form substantially similar to restricted stock or RSUs as of the Termination date; (6) vesting of all unvested or unexercisable options, SARs or other share-based awards in a form substantially similar to options or SARs, which will be exercisable until the earlier of the end of their original term or 12 months (or in the case of certain approved retirees, five years) following the Termination date; and (7) the vesting and immediate payment of all other cash performance units or other share-based awards subject to performance-based vesting criteria based on a presumed achievement of target levels of performance. No amounts are shown for Earned Amounts as we have assumed there would be no such amounts unpaid on the last day of the fiscal year. Certain terms in this footnote are defined above under “Change in Control Arrangements.”

 

4 

Upon retirement after either reaching age 55 and completing ten continuous years of service or completing 20 years of continuous service, disability or death, the named executive officer would be entitled to a pro-rata bonus based on actual performancetarget achievement under the 20212023 Bonus Plan. The amount shown with respect to annual bonus for each named executive officer is the actual payout amount for 2021.2023. See Note 3 for a description of annual bonus amounts payable following a Change in Control.

 

5 

Consists of the Benefit Coverage payable under the Change in Control Plan.

 

6 

Upon retirement or permanent disability (as defined in the pertinent plan), a named executive officer may continue to vest in and receive distributions under outstanding stock awards for the remainder of their vesting period and may exercise options and SARs for up to five years in accordance with the awards’ original terms; provided however that upon permanent disability, the Performance Units will immediately vest assuming achievement at the target level of performance. Annual stock awards provide that if the executive retires within one year after the grant date, the executive forfeits a portion of the stock award proportional to the number of days remaining within that one-year period. For these purposes, retirement means a termination of employment with retirement approval of the Compensation Policy CommitteeCPC by an executive who had attained age 55 with 10 years of service. In all cases, however, the Compensation Policy CommitteeCPC or its designee has the authority to revoke approved retiree status if an executive’s employment terminated for serious misconduct or was subsequently found to have engaged in competition or engaged in criminal conduct or other behavior that was actually or potentially harmful to the Company. A named executive officer who dies as an employee or approved retiree would immediately vest in his or her options, SARs and other stock awards. As of December 31, 2021,2023, each of Mr. Weisz, Mr. Cunningham,Geller, Ms. Marbert, Mr. Miller, and Mr. MillerHunter and Mr. Terry as of his retirement date met the age and service conditions for retirement eligibility. The value of Performance Units vesting upon retirement is calculated based on the probable outcome of the performance conditions as of December 31, 2021;2023; the value of Performance Units vesting upon disability or death is calculated assuming achievement at the target level of performance. See Note 3 for a description of treatment of outstanding equity awards following a Change in Control.

 

7 

Consists of the value of unvested employer credits under the MVW Deferred Compensation Plan. The Company may credit participants’ accounts with employer credits that will vest at a rate of 25 percent25% per year on the first four anniversaries of the date the discretionary employer credit was allocated to the participant’s account (unless otherwise determined), provided that the participant remains in continued service with the Company. Upon a change in control of the Company or a participant’s death or retirement after reaching age 55 and completing ten continuous years of service, all employer credits will immediately vest in full. Although the Marriott Deferred Compensation Plan also provided for employer credits, no named executive officer has unvested employer credits under the Marriott Deferred Compensation Plan.

The benefits reported in the table and narrative above are in addition to benefits available prior to the occurrence of any termination of employment, including benefits available under then-exercisable SARs and options and vested MVW Deferred Compensation Plan balances, and benefits available generally to salaried employees such as benefits under the 401(k) Plan, group medical and dental plans, life and accidental death insurance plans, disability programs, health and dependent care spending accounts, and accrued paid time off. Amounts actually received if any of the named executive officers cease to be employed will vary based on factors such as the timing during the year of any such event, the price of the Company’s stock, the named executive officer’s age, and any changes to our benefit arrangements and policies. We may determine to provide additional or different benefits in connection with any executive’s termination.

CEO PAY RATIO

Under rules adopted pursuant to the Dodd-Frank Act of 2010, we are required to calculate and disclose the total compensation paid to our median employee, as well as the ratio of the total compensation paid to the median employee as compared to the total compensation paid to our CEO.

Under the relevant rules, we are required to identify the median employee by use of a consistently applied compensation measure. We chose to utilize compensation rules that were consistent with the Summary Compensation Table. Associates who became our employees as a result of the Welk acquisition (approximately 1,110 individual) are excluded for one year. We did not perform adjustments to the compensation paid to part-time employees to calculate what they would have been paid on a full-time basis.

As of December 31, 2021,2023, the date for the determination of the median employee, we had 19,15022,003 employees in 25 countries for purposes of this determination, however, the vast majority of these employees were in North America. In identifying the median employee, we excluded workers in 2018 countries totaling 9001,028 associates (approximately 4.4%4.7% of our workforce) as permitted by the de minimis exemption rules, given the small portion of the total employee population in these countries.

We excluded the following number of workers from the following countries in the identification of the median employee.

After applying our methodology and excluding the employees listed above, we identified the median employee. Our median employee compensation as calculated using Summary Compensation Table requirements was $36,899.$44,551. Our CEO’s compensation as reported in the Summary Compensation Table was $13,223,937.$5,360,952. Therefore, our CEO to median employee pay ratio is 358:119:1.

Note that the pay ratio reported by other companies may not be comparable to the pay ratio reported above, as other companies may have different employment and compensation practices and may utilize different methodologies, exclusions, estimates and assumptions in calculating their own pay ratios. This information is being provided for compliance purposes. Neither the Compensation Policy CommitteeCPC nor management of the Company used the pay ratio measure in making compensation decisions.

MARRIOTT VACATIONS WORLDWIDE 2024 PROXY STATEMENTExecutive Compensation Tables and Discussion53


PAY VS. PERFORMANCE
Under rules adopted pursuant to the Dodd-Frank Act of 2010, we are required to disclose pay versus performance for our Principal Executive Officer (“PEO”) and the other NEOs.
Under the relevant rules, we are required to provide (i) the compensation actually paid to these individuals compared to the Summary Compensation Table, (ii) the total stockholder return (“TSR”) for the Company and chosen peer group, calculated against an initial investment value of $100, (iii) our net income and (iv) another selected Company measure. The table below represents each of these requirements, beginning with fiscal year 2020.
The Company utilized the S&P Composite 1500 Hotels, Resorts & Cruise TSR Index, for the peer group. This index has been utilized historically in our Annual Reports on Form
10-K
in connection with the required performance graph and most closely aligns with our line of business.
Adjusted EBITDA, as previously defined, was chosen as the Company-selected financial measure as it is an important indicator of the Company’s operating performance. It is also a measure of our ability to service debt, fund capital expenditures, expand the business, and return cash to the stockholders.
As it relates to compensation decisions, Adjusted EBITDA allows for period-over-period comparisons of our ongoing core operations before the impact of excluded items. The CPC establishes goals that are designed to maintain high standards that are achievable but not certain to be met. We utilize this measure in both the short-term incentive plan and the three-year performance awards because it ensures that short-term management decisions are not influenced by short-term gain at the expense of long-term performance.
The CPC reviews a number of performance metrics when assessing the Company’s performance. However, for compensation decisions, the following metrics are the most important:
Adjusted EBITDA, with its relative importance noted above, used in both the short- and long-term incentive
Total Revenue, a top line financial measure that captures the business and brand contributions to overall company financials, used in the short-term incentive
Adjusted Return on Invested Capital, a strong driver of free cash flow and important comparator to other companies, used in the long-term incentive

Compensation actually paid is calculated starting with the total compensation as reported in the Summary Compensation Table (“SCT”), and then the SCT value of restricted stock and units (including performance-based awards) plus SAR awards are deducted. The amount equal to the fair value at the end of the prior fiscal year or awards granted in any prior fiscal year that fail to meet the applicable vesting conditions during the covered fiscal year are then deducted. Added to the calculation are: fair value, as of
year-end,
of awards granted in the first year that are outstanding and unvested; the change in fair value from the prior to current years for awards granted in prior fiscal years that are outstanding and unvested; and the change in fair value as of the vesting date (from the end of the prior fiscal year) for awards granted in any prior fiscal year for which all applicable vesting conditions were satisfied by the end of the covered fiscal year. The fair value of awards that are subject to performance conditions are based on the most probable outcome at the end of the covered fiscal year.

SAR calculations measuring the

The below charts represent the alignment of the PEO and NEO pay to Net Income, Adjusted EBITDA, and Company and peer TSR. The graphical representation clearly demonstrates that both the PEO and NEO compensation actually paid (“CAP”) is aligned with stockholder performance. As noted, the financial metrics have increased year over year, whereas the CAP and company TSR have responded to various market conditions in a correlated fashion.

COMPENSATION ARRANGEMENTS FOR NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTORS

In designing and implementing compensation programs applicable to our non-employee directors, our Compensation Policy CommitteeCPC considered the advice and recommendations of Exequity. In determining its recommendation to the Board with respect to compensation for our non-employee directors for 2021,2023, the Compensation Policy CommitteeCPC considered Exequity’s recommendationthe external market pay practices of the same companies that comprised the peer group it considered with respect to the COVID pandemic, ancompensation of our executive officers for 2023 and generally looks to the median of such market data when making director compensation decisions. As a result of the external market review, would not resultthe CPC recommended and the Board approved an increase of $10,000 in changes to the prior year’s compensation. The Compensation Policy Committee, therefore, did not recommend changes to the equity as a component of non-employee director compensation in 2021.2023.

For 2021,2023, our compensation arrangements for our non-employee directors for service on our Board of Directors consisted of:

 

an annual cash retainer of $85,000 for each non-employee director other than the Chairman and $130,000 for the Chairman;

an annual cash retainer of $25,000 for the chairs of each of the Audit Committee, Compensation Policy Committee and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee;

an annual cash retainer of $10,000 for the members (other than the Chairs) of each of the Audit Committee, Compensation Policy Committee and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee; and

an annual equity grant (the “Non-Employee Director Share Awards”) with a grant date value of $150,000 for each non-employee director other than the Chairman and $225,000 for the Chairman.

an annual cash retainer of $10,000 for the members (other than the Chairs) of each of the Audit Committee, Compensation Policy Committee and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee; and


an annual equity grant (the “Non-Employee Director Share Awards”) with a grant date value of $175,000 for each non-employee director other than the Chairman and $250,000 for the Chairman.

The Non-Employee Director Share Awards vest immediately upon grant. Non-Employee Director Share Awards granted prior to 2016 represent the right to receive shares of the Company’s common stock upon a director’s completion of Board service. Since 2016, a non-employee director who has achieved the ownership level required by our stock ownership guidelines at such time (without giving effect to any time permitted for achievement) has been permitted to elect one of the following options with respect to each grant of Non-Employee Director Share Awards:

 

to receive the Non-Employee Director Share Awards in the form of stock units with terms, including regarding the payment of dividends, as specified in the Equity Plans, with distribution in the form of shares of the Company’s common stock to occur as elected by the non-employee director as permitted pursuant to the Equity Plans; or

to receive the Non-Employee Director Share Awards in the form of stock units with terms, including the payment of dividends, as specified in the Equity Plans, with distribution in the form of shares of the Company’s common stock to occur as elected by the non-employee director as permitted pursuant to the Equity Plans; or

 

to receive the Non-Employee Director Share Awards in the form of shares of the Company’s common stock, to be issued as soon as practicable following the grant date.

to receive the Non-Employee Director Share Awards in the form of shares of the Company’s common stock, to be issued as soon as practicable following the grant date.

If no election is made, Non-Employee Director Share Awards will represent the right to receive shares of the Company’s common stock upon a director’s completion of Board service. When the Company pays a cash dividend, a corresponding dividend equivalent payment is paid in cash with respect to the Non-Employee Director Share Awards. Non-Employee Director Share Awards cannot be transferred or assigned, and the director has no voting rights in the shares of common stock underlying the awards until such time as such shares are distributed to the non-employee director.

Shares underlying options and SARs are not considered owned by the director. The Compensation Policy CommitteeCPC receives an annual report of the ownership achieved by each director as of the end of the fiscal year, with the achievement level determined by reference to the average of the closing prices of our common stock for the 20 trading days ending on the last trading day of the fiscal year. As of the end of 2021,2023, all directors were in compliance withhad achieved the guidelinesrequired ownership levels with the exception of a directorthe two most recently appointed directors who was newlywere appointed in November 2021 and December 2023 and who hashave until the end of 2026 and 2028, respectively, to become compliant.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee also will review the material facts of transactions subject to the policy and determine whether or not to approve or ratify those transactions. In determining whether to approve or ratify a transaction subject to the policy, the Committee will take into account, among other factors, whether the transaction is on terms that are no less favorable to the Company than terms generally available to an unaffiliated third party under similar circumstances and the materiality of the related person’s interest in the transaction. The policy provides that transactions subject to the policy must be approved in advance, but if approval is required but not reasonably feasible, then the transaction will be considered and, if determined to be appropriate, ratified at the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee’s next regularly scheduled meeting.

APPENDIX A

 

MARRIOTT VACATIONS WORLDWIDE CORPORATION

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures to GAAP Measures (Unaudited)

In this Proxy Statement, we present adjustedAdjusted net income attributable to common shareholders, adjusted Diluted Earningsstockholders, Adjusted diluted earnings per Share, EBITDA, Adjustedshare, EBITDA, and adjusted free cash flow,Adjusted EBITDA, financial measures that are not prescribed by GAAP. The tables below reconcile these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. We evaluate and present these non-GAAP financial measures for the reasons described below. Further, we evaluate Adjusted EBITDA in particular as a financial objective with respect to which amounts payable under the Bonus Plan may be earned by our named executive officers. Please be aware that these non-financial measures have limitations and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income or loss attributable to common stockholders or any other comparable performance measure calculated in accordance with GAAP. In addition, other companies in our industry may calculate these non-GAAP financial measures differently than we do or may not calculate them at all, limiting their usefulness as a comparative measure.

EBITDA, a financial measure that is not prescribed by GAAP, is defined as earnings, or net income or loss attributable to common shareholders,stockholders, before interest expense, net (excluding consumer financing interest expense associated with term loan securitization transactions), income taxes, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA reflects additional adjustments for certain items, described below, and excludes share-based compensation expense to address considerable variability among companies in recording compensation expense because companies use share-based payment awards differently, both in the type and quantity of awards granted. For purposes of our EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA calculations, we do not adjust for consumer financing interest expense associated with term loan securitization transactions because we consider it to be an operating expense of our business. We consider Adjusted EBITDA to be an indicator of operating performance, which we use to measure our ability to service debt, fund capital expenditures, and expand our business.business, and return cash to stockholders. We also use Adjusted EBITDA, as do analysts, lenders, investors, and others, because this measure excludes certain items that can vary widely across different industries or among companies within the same industry. For example, interest expense can be dependent on a company’s capital structure, debt levels and credit ratings. Accordingly, the impact of interest expense on earnings can vary significantly among companies. The tax positions of companies can also vary because of their differing abilities to take advantage of tax benefits and because of the tax policies of the jurisdictions in which they operate. As a result, effective tax rates and provisionprovisions for income taxes can vary considerably among companies. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA also exclude depreciation and amortization because companies utilize productive assets of different ages and use different methods of both acquiring and depreciating productive assets. These differences can result in considerable variability in the relative costs of productive assets and the depreciation and amortization expense among companies. We believe Adjusted EBITDA is useful as an indicator of operating performance because it allows for period-over-period comparisons of our on-going core operations before the impact of the excluded items. Adjusted EBITDA also facilitates comparison by us, analysts, investors, and others of results from our on-going core operations before the impact of these items with results from other vacation companies.

EBITDASimilarly, we believe non-GAAP financial measures including Adjusted net income attributable to common stockholders and Adjusted EBITDA have limitationsdiluted earnings per share provide useful information to investors because these non-GAAP financial measures facilitate period-over-period comparisons of our on-going core operations and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for performance measures calculated in accordancecomparison of our results from our on-going core operations with GAAP. In addition,results from other companies in our industry may calculate EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do or may not calculate them at all, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures. companies.

The tabletables below shows our EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA calculation and reconciles these measures with Net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders,stockholders, which is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.

The Committee may delegate to a Subcommittee of one or more officers of the Company the ability to grant Awards and take the other actions described in Article 3.2 hereof with respect to Participants (other than any such officers themselves) who are not Directors or executive officers, provided, however, that the resolution so authorizing such officer(s) shall specify the total number of rights or options such Subcommittee may so award, and such actions shall be treated for all purposes as if taken by the Committee. Any action by any such Subcommittee within the scope of such delegation shall be deemed for all purposes to have been taken by the Committee, and references in this Plan to the Committee shall include any such Subcommittee. The Committee may delegate the day to day administration of the Plan to an officer or officers of the Company, or one or more agents, and such administrator(s) may have the authority to execute and distribute agreements or other documents evidencing or relating to Awards granted by the Committee under the Plan, to maintain records relating to the grant, vesting, exercise, forfeiture or expiration of Awards, to process or oversee the issuance of Shares upon the exercise, vesting and/or settlement of an Award, to interpret the terms of Awards and to take such other actions as the Committee may specify. Any action by any such administrator within the scope of its delegation shall be deemed for all purposes to have been taken by the Committee and references in the Plan to the Committee shall include any such administrator, provided that the actions and interpretations of any such administrator shall be subject to review and approval, disapproval or modification by the Committee.

3.4 Decisions Binding. All determinations and decisions made by the Committee or its designee pursuant to the provisions of the Plan and all related orders and resolutions of the Board shall be final, conclusive and binding on all parties.

3.5 Unanimous Consent in Lieu of Meeting. A memorandum signed by all members of the Committee shall constitute the act of the Committee without the necessity in such event to hold a meeting.

3.6 Serious Misconduct. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan or any Award Agreement, if a Participant terminates employment for serious misconduct, including but not limited to engaging in a terminable offense set forth in the applicable associate handbook, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, refuse or revoke Approved Retiree status or other retirement approval for such Participant, or otherwise determine that such Participant may not receive, vest in or exercise any Awards or otherwise receive Shares thereunder to the extent the Awards are not granted, vested or fully exercised, or Shares are not received, as of such determination.

Article 4 Shares Subject to the Plan

4.1 Number of Shares.

(a) Reserve. Subject to Article 4.2 hereof, an aggregate of one million, two hundred and sixty-five thousand (1,265,000) Shares, plus the Shares described in Article 4.1(b), plus on and after the Restatement Effective Date, an additional one million, two hundred and fifty thousand (1,250,000) Shares (collectively, the “Reserve”), may be issued pursuant to Awards granted under the Plan. All of the Shares reserved for issuance under the Plan may be issued pursuant to ISOs.

(b) Prior Plans. The number of Shares which were reserved for issuance under the Prior Marriott Plan but which are not subject to any outstanding awards under such plan as of the Effective Date shall be considered part of the Reserve under Article 4.1(a). Further, after the Effective Date, if any Shares subject to or underlying awards granted under the Prior Plans would again become available for new grants under the terms of such plans if such plans were still in effect, then those Shares will be added to the Reserve, thereby increasing the number of Shares available for issuance under this Plan as determined under the first sentence of Article 4.1(a). Any such Shares will not be available for future awards under the terms of the Prior Plans, which are terminated as of the Effective Date.

(c) Depletion of Reserve. When an Award is granted, the Reserve shall be depleted by the maximum number of Shares to which the Award relates, except that an Award that is valued in relation to a Share but that may only be settled in cash shall not deplete the Reserve. In addition, if the number of Shares issuable under an Award is increased after the grant date, such as by an amendment to the Award or as a result of converting dividends or dividend equivalent units into additional Shares of Restricted Stock or RSUs subject to the Award, then the Reserve shall be depleted by such increased number of Shares at the time of such increase.

(d) Replenishment of Reserve. To the extent (i) an Award lapses, expires, terminates or is cancelled without the issuance of Shares under the Award, (ii) it is determined during or at the conclusion of the term of an Award that all or some portion of the Shares with respect to which the Award was granted will not be issuable on the basis that the conditions for such issuance will not be satisfied, (iii) Shares are forfeited under an Award, (iv) Shares are tendered or withheld in payment of the exercise price of an Option or as a result of the net settlement in Shares of an outstanding SAR; (v) Shares are tendered or withheld to satisfy federal, state or local tax withholding obligations; or (vi) Shares are issued under any Award and the Company subsequently reacquires them pursuant to rights reserved upon the issuance of the Shares, then such Shares shall be re-credited to the Reserve and may be used for new Awards under the Plan, provided that Shares re-credited to the Reserve pursuant to clause (vi) may not be issued pursuant to ISOs.

4.2 Adjustments in Authorized Shares and Awards. In the event of any change in corporate capitalization, such as a stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, share combination, recapitalization, or similar event affecting the equity capital structure of the Company, or in the event the Shares shall be changed into or exchanged for a different number or class of shares of stock or securities of the Company or of another corporation and/or for cash as a result

MARRIOTT VACATIONS WORLDWIDE 2024 PROXY STATEMENTAppendix BB-5


of a corporate transaction, such as any merger, consolidation, separation, acquisition of property or shares, stock rights offering, spin-off, or other distribution of stock or property of the Company, any reorganization (whether or not such reorganization comes within the definition of such term in Code Section 368) or any partial or complete liquidation of the Company, or similar event affecting the Company, such adjustment shall be made in (a) the number and class of Shares which thereafter may be delivered under Article 4.1(a), (b) or (c), (b) the number and class of Shares subject to outstanding Awards, (c) the Exercise Price relating to any Award, and (d) the performance goals which may be applicable to any outstanding Awards, and such other equitable substitutions or adjustments may be made, as may be determined to be appropriate and equitable by the Committee, in its sole discretion, to prevent dilution or enlargement of rights. Without limiting the preceding sentence, in the case of any such transaction described in the preceding sentence, the adjustments made by the Committee or the board of directors, compensation committee or similar body of any other legal entity assuming the obligations of the Company hereunder, may consist of either (i) making appropriate provision for the protection of outstanding Awards by the substitution on an equitable basis of appropriate equity interests or awards similar to the Awards (or, in the event no such similar equity interests may be identified, a nonqualified deferred compensation account allocation of equivalent value), provided that the substitution neither enlarges nor diminishes the value and rights under the Awards; or (ii) upon written notice to the Participants, providing that Awards will be exercised, distributed, cashed out or exchanged for value pursuant to such terms and conditions (including the waiver of any existing terms or conditions including but not limited to vesting restrictions or exercise waiting periods) as shall be specified in the notice, provided that any Awards that are subject to Code Section 409A must not be exercised, distributed, cashed out or exchanged for value unless, to the extent required for compliance with Code Section 409A, the transaction qualifies as a “change in control event” as described under Code Section 409A(2)(A)(v) and the regulations thereunder. Any adjustment of an ISO under clause (i) of the preceding sentence in this paragraph shall be made in such a manner so as not to constitute a “modification” within the meaning of Section 424(h)(3) of the Code.

Article 5 Eligibility and Participation

5.1 Eligibility. Employees shall be eligible to participate in this Plan with respect to Awards specified in Articles 6 through 9. Non-Employee Directors shall be eligible to participate in the Plan with respect to Awards specified in Article 10.

5.2 Actual Participation by Employees. Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Committee may, from time to time, select from all eligible Employees, those to whom Awards shall be granted and shall determine the nature and amount of each Award.

Article 6 SARs and Stock Options

6.1 Grant of SARs and Options. Subject to the terms and provisions of the Plan, SARs and/or Options may be granted to Employees in such number, and upon such terms, and at any time and from time to time as shall be determined by the Committee. No dividends or dividend equivalent rights may be granted with respect to SARs or Options.

6.2 Award Agreement. Each SAR and Option grant shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement that shall specify the Exercise Price, the duration of the Award, the number of Shares to which the Award pertains, and such other provisions as the Committee shall determine. The Award Agreement, if pertaining to an Option, also shall specify whether the Option is intended to be an ISO within the meaning of Code Section 422, or an NQSO whose grant is intended not to fall under the provisions of Code Section 422.

6.3 Exercise Price. The Exercise Price for each grant of a SAR or an Option under this Article 6 shall be at least equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date the SAR or Option is granted.

6.4 Duration of SARs and Options. Each SAR and Option granted under this Article 6 shall expire at such time as the Committee shall determine at the time of grant; provided, however, that no SAR or Option shall be exercisable later than the tenth (10th) anniversary date of its grant.

6.5 Exercise of SARs and Options. SARs and Options granted under this Article 6 shall be exercisable at such times and be subject to such restrictions and conditions as the Committee shall in each instance approve, which need not be the same for each grant or for each Participant.

The ability of a Participant to exercise a SAR or an Option is conditioned upon the Participant not committing any criminal offense or malicious tort relating to or against the Company, or, as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion, engaging in willful acts or omissions or acts or omissions of gross negligence that are or potentially are injurious to the Company’s operations, financial condition or business reputation.

6.6 Notice and Payment. SARs and Options granted under this Article 6 shall be exercised by the delivery of notice of exercise to the Company by such means as the Committee shall approve from time to time, setting forth the number of Shares with respect to which the SAR or Option is to be exercised, accompanied, in the case of Options, by full payment for the Shares.

The Exercise Price upon exercise of any Option shall be payable to the Company in full either: (a) in cash or its equivalent, (b) if permitted in the governing Award Agreement, by withholding of Shares deliverable upon exercise or tendering (either actually or by attestation) previously acquired Shares, in each case having an aggregate Fair Market Value at the time of exercise equal to the total Exercise Price, (c) withholding Shares subject to the Option, or (d) any combination of (a), (b) and (c).

The Committee also may allow cashless exercise as permitted under the Federal Reserve Board’s Regulation T, subject to applicable securities law restrictions, or by any other means which the Committee determines to be consistent with the Plan’s purpose and applicable law.

B-6Appendix B2024 PROXY STATEMENT MARRIOTT VACATIONS WORLDWIDE


If a Participant shall dispose of Shares acquired through exercise of an ISO within either (i) two (2) years after the date the Option is granted or (ii) one (1) year after the date the Option is exercised (i.e., in a disqualifying disposition), such Participant shall notify the Company within seven (7) days of the date of such disqualifying disposition. In addition, if a Participant elects, under Code Section 83, to be taxed at the time an Award of Restricted Stock (or other property subject to such Code section) is made, rather than at the time the Award vests, such Participant shall notify the Company of such election within the time period prescribed by law.

6.7 Restrictions on Share Transferability. The Committee may impose such restrictions on any Shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of a SAR or an Option granted under this Article 6 as it may deem advisable, including, without limitation, restrictions under applicable Federal securities laws, under the requirements of any stock exchange or market upon which such Shares are then listed or traded, and under any blue sky or state securities laws applicable to such Shares.

6.8 Termination of Employment or Leave of Absence. Except as otherwise approved by the Committee and set forth in the pertinent Award Agreement(s), in the event that a Participant who is an Employee, during his or her lifetime has been on leave of absence for a period of greater than twelve (12) months (except a leave of absence approved by the Board or the Committee, as the case may be), or ceases to be an Employee of the Company or of any Subsidiary for any reason, including retirement, the portion of any SAR or Option which is not exercisable on the date on which the Participant ceased to be an Employee or has been on leave for over twelve (12) months (except a leave of absence approved by the Board or the Committee, as the case may be) shall expire on such date and any unexercised portion thereof which was otherwise exercisable on such date shall expire unless exercised within a period of three (3) months from such date, but in no event after the expiration of the term for which the SAR or Option was granted; provided, however, that in the case of an awardee of a SAR or a NQSO who is an “Approved Retiree” (as hereinafter defined), the SAR or NQSO shall continue to vest for up to five years from the date of retirement and said awardee may exercise such SAR or NQSO, as applicable, until the soonest to occur of (i) the expiration of such SAR or NQSO in accordance with its original term; (ii) the expiration of five (5) years from the date of retirement; or (iii) with respect to SARs or Options granted less than one year before the date the Approved Retiree retires, expiration of the SAR or Option on such retirement date, except not with respect to that portion of the SARs or Options equal to such number of shares multiplied by the ratio of (I) the number of days between the grant date and the retirement date inclusive, over (II) the number of days in the twelve (12) month period following the grant date.

Notwithstanding the preceding paragraph, if the Committee subsequently determines, in its sole discretion, that an Approved Retiree has violated the provisions of any agreement to refrain from Engaging in Competition unless such provisions are unenforceable under applicable law, or has engaged in willful acts or omissions or acts or omissions of gross negligence that are or potentially are injurious to the Company’s operations, financial condition or business reputation, all SARs and Options shall be cancelled without consideration immediately.

In the event of the death of an awardee during the three (3) month period described above for exercise of a SAR or an Option by a terminated awardee or one on leave for over twelve (12) months (except a leave of absence approved by the Board or the Committee, as the case may be), the Option shall be exercisable by the awardee’s personal representatives, heirs or legatees to the same extent and during the same period that the awardee could have exercised the SAR or Option if the awardee had not died.

Notwithstanding anything in Article 6.5 to the contrary, in the event of the death of an awardee while an Employee or Approved Retiree of the Company or any Subsidiary, an outstanding SAR or Option held by such awardee upon death shall become fully vested upon death and shall be exercisable by the awardee’s personal representatives, heirs or legatees at any time prior to the expiration of one (1) year from the date of death of the awardee, but in no event after the expiration of the term for which the SAR or Option was granted.

6.9 Nontransferability of SARs and Options. No SAR, NQSO or ISO granted under the Plan may be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned, or otherwise alienated or hypothecated, other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. Further, all SARS, NQSOs and ISOs granted to a Participant under the Plan shall be exercisable during his or her lifetime only by such Participant.

Article 7 Restricted Stock

7.1 Grant of Restricted Stock. Subject to the terms and provisions of the Plan, the Committee, at any time and from time to time, may grant Shares of Restricted Stock to Employees in such amounts as the Committee shall determine.

7.2 Restricted Stock Agreement. Each Restricted Stock grant shall be evidenced by a Restricted Stock Award Agreement that shall specify the Period(s) of Restriction, the number of Shares of Restricted Stock granted, and such other provisions as the Committee shall determine.

7.3 Transferability. Except as provided in this Article 7, the Shares of Restricted Stock granted hereunder may not be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned, or otherwise alienated or hypothecated until the end of the applicable Period of Restriction established by the Committee and specified in the Restricted Stock Award Agreement, or upon earlier satisfaction of any other conditions, as specified by the Committee in its sole discretion and set forth in the Restricted Stock Award Agreement. All rights with respect to the Restricted Stock granted to a Participant under the Plan shall be available during his or her lifetime only to such Participant.

7.4 Other Restrictions. The Committee shall impose such conditions and/or restrictions on any Shares of Restricted Stock granted pursuant to the Plan as it may deem advisable including, without limitation, a requirement that Participants pay a stipulated purchase price for each Share of Restricted Stock, restrictions based upon the achievement of specific performance objectives (Company-wide, business unit, and/or individual), time-based restrictions on vesting following the attainment of the performance objectives, and/or restrictions under applicable Federal or state securities laws.

MARRIOTT VACATIONS WORLDWIDE 2024 PROXY STATEMENTAppendix BB-7


The Company shall retain the certificates representing Shares of Restricted Stock in the Company’s possession until such time as all conditions and/or restrictions applicable to such Shares have been satisfied.

Except as otherwise provided in this Article 7, Shares of Restricted Stock covered by each Restricted Stock grant made under the Plan shall become freely transferable by the Participant after the last day of the applicable Period of Restriction.

Distribution of Shares of Restricted Stock is conditioned upon the Participant not committing any criminal offense or malicious tort relating to or against the Company or, as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion, engaging in willful acts or omissions or acts or omissions of gross negligence that are or potentially are injurious to the company’s operations, financial condition or business reputation.

7.5 Voting Rights. During the Period of Restriction, Participants holding Shares of Restricted Stock granted hereunder may exercise full voting rights with respect to those Shares.

7.6 Dividends and Other Distributions. During the Period of Restriction, Participants holding Shares of Restricted Stock granted hereunder shall be credited with regular dividends paid with respect to the underlying Shares while they are so held. Such dividends shall be converted into additional shares of Restricted Stock or deferred until such Restricted Stock vests, upon such terms as the Committee establishes, but in no event will any dividends be paid on unvested Restricted Stock.

The Committee may apply any additional restrictions to the dividends that the Committee deems appropriate. Without limiting the generality of the preceding sentence, if Restricted Stock is contingent on a performance condition, any dividends relating to such Restricted Stock may also be made subject to such performance conditions.

7.7 Termination of Employment. Except as otherwise approved by the Committee and set forth in the pertinent Award Agreement(s), (a) in the event that a Participant’s employment with the Company is terminated during the Period of Restriction because the Participant is an Approved Retiree, the Committee shall have complete discretion in determining the percentage, if any, of a Participant’s outstanding Shares of Restricted Stock as to which the Period of Restriction shall end; (b) in the event a Participant’s employment with the Company is terminated because of the Participant’s Disability or death during the Period of Restriction, the Period of Restriction shall end and, in the case of death, the Participant’s rights thereunder shall inure to the benefit of his or her Beneficiary; and (c) in the event that a Participant’s employment with the Company is terminated for any other reason during the Period of Restriction, such Participant’s outstanding Shares of Restricted Stock shall be forfeited to the Company without payment.

Article 8. Restricted Stock Units

8.1 RSUs. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, the Committee, at any time and from time to time, may grant Awards of RSUs to eligible Employees in such amounts as the Committee shall determine.

8.2 RSU and Common Stock Rights. RSUs shall represent an Employee’s unsecured right to receive from the Company the transfer of title to Shares subject to the vesting schedule referenced in Article 8.3 below, provided that the Employee has satisfied the conditions of transfer set forth in Article 8.4 below. On each such vesting date, if it occurs, the Company shall transfer a corresponding number of Shares to an individual brokerage account established and maintained in the Employee’s name. The Employee shall have all the rights of a stockholder with respect to such Shares transferred to the brokerage account, including but not limited to the right to vote the Shares, to sell, transfer, liquidate or otherwise dispose of the Shares, and to receive all dividends or other distributions paid or made with respect to the Shares from the time they are deposited in the account. The Employee shall have no voting, transfer, liquidation, or other rights of a Share stockholder with respect to RSUs prior to such time that the corresponding Shares are transferred, if at all, to the Employee’s brokerage account. Notwithstanding the foregoing, RSU’s may be granted with dividend equivalent rights at the discretion of the Committee and the Committee shall provide whether such dividend equivalents will be converted into additional RSUs (subject to the same terms and conditions as the underlying RSUs to which they relate) or deferred until such RSUs vest, but in no event will any dividends equivalents be paid with respect to unvested RSUs.

8.3 Vesting in RSUs. RSU Awards shall become vested in accordance with the vesting provisions set forth in the pertinent Award Agreement.

8.4 Conditions of Transfer. A transfer of Shares in accordance with Article 8.2 above shall be conditioned upon the Employee meeting both of the following conditions during the entire period from the grant date through the vesting date(s) relating to such RSUs:

(a) The Employee must continue to be an active employee of the Company or one of its Subsidiaries; and

(b) The Employee must refrain from committing any criminal offense or malicious tort relating to or against the Company or, as determined by the Committee in its discretion, engaging in willful acts or omissions or acts or omissions of gross negligence that are or potentially are injurious to the Company’s operations, financial condition or business reputation.

If the Employee fails to meet the requirements of Article 8.4(a) or (b), then the Employee shall forfeit the right to vest in any RSUs that have not already vested as of the time such failure is determined, and the Employee shall accordingly forfeit the right to receive the transfer of title to any corresponding Shares. The forfeiture of rights with respect to unvested RSUs (and corresponding Shares) shall not affect the rights of the Employee with respect to any RSUs that already have vested nor with respect to any Shares the title of which has already been transferred to the Employee’s brokerage account.

B-8Appendix B2024 PROXY STATEMENT MARRIOTT VACATIONS WORLDWIDE


8.5 Effect of Termination of Employment. Notwithstanding contrary provisions of this Article 8, except as otherwise approved by the Committee and set forth in the pertinent Award Agreement(s):

(a) In the event the Employee’s employment is terminated prior to the relevant vesting date on account of death, and if the Employee had otherwise met the requirements of Article 8.4(a) and (b) from the grant date through the date of such death, then the Employee’s unvested RSUs shall immediately vest in full upon death and the Employee’s rights hereunder with respect to any such RSUs shall inure to the benefit of the Employee’s executors, administrators, personal representatives and assigns.

(b) In the event Employee’s employment is terminated prior to the relevant vesting date on account of the Employee having a Disability or being an Approved Retiree, and if the Employee had otherwise met the requirements of Article 8.4(a) and (b) from the grant date through the date of the termination of employment date, and provided that the Employee continues to meet the requirements of Article 8.4(b), then the Employee’s rights hereunder with respect to any outstanding, unvested RSUs shall continue in the same manner as if the Employee continued to meet the continuous employment requirement of Article 8.4(a) through the vesting dates related to the Award, except not for that portion of RSUs granted less than one (1) year prior to the Employee’s termination equal to such number of shares multiplied by the ratio of (A) the number of days after the termination date and before the first (1st) anniversary of the grant date, over (B) the number of days on and after the grant date and before the first (1st) anniversary of the grant date.

(c) In the event Employee’s employment is terminated prior to the relevant vesting date for any reason other than those circumstances described in paragraphs (a) and (b) of this Article 8.5, such Employee’s outstanding RSUs shall be forfeited to the Company without payment.

Article 9 Other Share-Based Awards

9.1 Grant of Other Share-Based Awards. The Committee may grant Other Share-Based Awards to Participants in such number, and upon such terms, and at any time and from time to time, as shall be determined by the Committee.

9.2 Terms of Other Share-Based Awards. Other Share-Based Awards shall contain such terms and conditions as the Committee may from time to time specify and may be denominated in cash, in Shares, in Share-equivalent units, in Share appreciation units, in securities or debentures convertible into Shares or in a combination of the foregoing and may be paid in cash or in Shares, all as determined by the Committee, provided that any Other Share-Based Award that represent the right to receive value in the amount of the increase in the Fair Market Value of a Share rather than the full value of a Share shall have an exercise or grant price no lower than the Fair Market Value on the date of grant. Other Share-Based Awards may be issued alone or in tandem with other Awards granted to Employees. No dividend equivalent units may granted on an Other Shared-Based Award that is not a full-value award, and any dividends or dividend equivalents granted with respect to an Other Share-Based Award that is a full-value award shall vest and be paid only if and to the same extent as the underlying Other Share-Based Award is vested and paid.

9.3 Other Share-Based Award Agreement. Each Other Share-Based Award shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement that shall specify such terms and conditions as the Committee shall determine.

Article 10 Directors’ Share Awards, Fee Deferral Elections, and Director SARs and Options

10.1 Eligibility. Only Non-Employee Directors shall be eligible to receive Non-Employee Director Share Awards and Director SARs and Options and to make Fee Deferral Elections. All such awards are subject to prior approval by the Committee. The aggregate value of the cash fees paid, along with the grant date value of any Awards granted hereunder, to a Non-Employee Director during any fiscal year of the Company shall not exceed $750,000.

10.2Non-Employee Director Share Awards. On the first (1st) full trading day immediately following each Annual Meeting, each Non- Employee Director designated by the Board may receive a Non-Employee Director Share Award of a number of Shares determined by the Board before such Annual Meeting. Each Non-Employee Director Share Award shall be fully vested and nonforfeitable when granted. Upon Termination of Service or at such other times as determined by the Committee, the Non-Employee Director Share Award awarded to a Non-Employee Director shall be paid to the Non-Employee Director.

10.3 Fee Deferral Elections.

(a) Elections to Defer Payment of Fees. Payment of all or any part of any Fees payable to a Non-Employee Director may be deferred by election of the Non-Employee Director. Each such election must be made in writing on a form prescribed by the Committee and irrevocably delivered to the Company in the year preceding the year which commences with the next Annual Meeting (the “Election Year”), and must be irrevocable for such Election Year. Deferral elections for an Election Year may include a separate election regarding whether to receive dividend equivalent units under Article 10.3(d) that relate solely to Fees deferred in such years in the form of additional Stock Units or an immediate cash payment; provided that, to the extent no such election is provided or made, the Non-Employee Director will be deemed to have elected to receive dividend equivalent units in the form of additional Stock Units. No election may be made under this Article 10.3(a) with respect to Fees for which an election is made under Article 10.5.

(b) Crediting Stock Units to Accounts. Amounts deferred pursuant to a Fee Deferral Election shall be credited as of the date of the deferral to a Stock Unit Account in Stock Units. The number of Stock Units credited to a Stock Unit Account with respect to any Non-Employee Director shall equal (i) the amount deferred pursuant to the Fee Deferral Election divided by (ii) the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date on which the Fees subject to the Fee Deferral Election would have been paid but for the Fee Deferral Election, with fractional units calculated to at least three (3) decimal places.

MARRIOTT VACATIONS WORLDWIDE 2024 PROXY STATEMENTAppendix BB-9


(c) Fully Vested Stock Units. All Stock Units credited to a Non-Employee Director’s Stock Unit Account pursuant to this Article 10.3 shall be at all times fully vested and nonforfeitable.

(d) Credit of Dividend Equivalents. Each Stock Unit credited to a Director’s Stock Unit Account includes one dividend equivalent unit. As of each dividend payment date with respect to Shares, each Non-Employee Director shall have credited to his or her Stock Unit Account an additional number of Stock Units equal to the product of (i) the per-share cash dividend payable with respect to a Share on such dividend payment date multiplied by the number of dividend equivalent units credited to his or her Stock Unit Account as of the close of business on the record date for such dividend, divided by (ii) the Fair Market Value of a Share on such dividend payment date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Non-Employee Director made a cash election with respect to dividend equivalent units pursuant to Article 10.3(a) (the “Cash-Settled Units”), then within 30 days after the dividend payment date, in lieu of the foregoing, the Non-Employee Director shall receive a cash payment equal to the product of (A) the per-share cash dividend payable with respect to a Share on such dividend payment date multiplied by (B) the number of Cash-Settled Units outstanding as of the close of business on the record date for such dividend. If dividends are paid on Shares in a form other than cash, then such dividends shall (I) if to be credited to the Stock Unit Account, either be notionally converted to cash or credited “in kind”, or (II) if to be paid in cash, notionally converted to cash if their value is readily determinable.

(e) Payment of Stock Units. Upon Termination of Service or at such other times as determined by the Committee and irrevocably elected in writing by the Non-Employee Director at the time of the Non-Employee Director’s election to defer Fees under Article 10.3(a), the Stock Units credited to a Non-Employee Director’s Stock Unit Account shall be paid to the Non-Employee Director in an equal number of shares of Stock in a single lump sum or in substantially equal annual installments over a period not to exceed ten (10) years, as irrevocably elected in writing by the Non-Employee Director at the time of the Non-Employee Director’s election to defer Fees under Article 10.3(a), pursuant to rules established from time to time by the Committee.

10.4 Unfunded Status. The interest of each Non-Employee Director in any Fees deferred under this Article 10 (and any Stock Units or Stock Unit Account relating thereto) or in any Director Stock Award shall be that of a general creditor of the Company. Stock Unit Accounts and Stock Units (and, if any, “in kind” dividends) credited thereto shall at all times be maintained by the Company as bookkeeping entries evidencing unfunded and unsecured general obligations of the Company.

10.5 Director SARs and Options.

(a) Elections to Receive Payment of Fees in the Form of SARs or Options. A Non-Employee Director may elect to receive payment of all or any part of his or her cash retainer in the form of Director SARs or Options, as determined by the Committee, in lieu of cash. Each such election must be made in writing on a form prescribed by the Committee and delivered to the Company in the calendar year preceding the calendar year in which occurs the Annual Meeting that marks the commencement of the annual period of service during which such Fees are earned. Each election is irrevocable for that annual period. Elections under this Article 10.5 may not be made with respect to Fees deferred under Article 10.3.

(b) Grant of Director SARs and Options. On the first (1st) full trading day immediately following each Annual Meeting, each Non-Employee Director who has filed an election under Article 10.5(a) for the annual period of service that commences with such Annual Meeting shall be granted Director SARs or Options that have a value on the date of grant substantially equal to the amount of Fees otherwise payable to the Non-Employee Director in cash but for the election to receive Director SARs or Options. The value of Director SARs or Options shall be determined by the Committee in its sole discretion, at a meeting held prior to the Annual Meeting, based on a Black-Scholes option pricing model or other valuation model that the Committee determines to be appropriate in its sole discretion.

(c) Terms of Director SARs and Options. Each Director SAR and Option shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement that shall specify the Exercise Price, the duration of the SAR or Option, and the number of Shares to which the SAR or Option pertains. Each Director SAR and Option shall (i) have an Exercise Price equal to or greater than the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date the Award is granted; (ii) be immediately vested and exercisable; (iii) expire on the tenth (10th) anniversary of the date of its grant; and (iv) be nontransferable unless otherwise specified by the Committee. No dividends or dividend equivalent rights may be granted with respect to SARs or Options.

(d) Payment. Director SARs and Options granted under this Article 10 shall be exercised by the delivery of notice of exercise to the Company in such manner as the Committee shall determine, setting forth the number of Shares with respect to which the SAR or Option is to be exercised, accompanied by full payment for the Shares. The Exercise Price upon exercise of any Director SAR or Option shall be payable to the Company in full either: (i) in cash or its equivalent, (ii) by withholding of Shares deliverable upon exercise or tendering (either actually or by attestation) previously acquired Shares, in each case having an aggregate Fair Market Value at the time of exercise equal to the total Exercise Price, or (iii) by a combination of (i) and (ii). The Committee also may allow cashless exercise as permitted under the Federal Reserve Board’s Regulation T, subject to applicable securities law restrictions, or by any other means which the Committee determines to be consistent with the Plan’s purpose and applicable law.

10.6 Dividends and Dividend Equivalents. No dividend or dividend equivalents will be paid with respect to any unvested Non-Employee Director Awards under this Article 10.

Article 11 Beneficiary Designation

Each Participant under the Plan may, from time to time, name any beneficiary or beneficiaries (who may be named contingently or successively) to whom any benefit under the Plan is to be paid in case of the Participant’s death before the Participant has received any or all of such benefit. Each such designation shall

B-10Appendix B2024 PROXY STATEMENT MARRIOTT VACATIONS WORLDWIDE


revoke all prior designations by the same Participant, shall be in a form prescribed by the Company, and will be effective only when filed by the Participant in writing with the Company during the Participant’s lifetime. In the absence of any such designation, benefits remaining unpaid at the Participant’s death shall be paid to the Participant’s estate.

Article 12 Change in Control

12.1 Treatment of Awards. If anAward Agreement specifies the treatment of an Award in connection with a Change in Control, then the terms of such Award Agreement shall apply in lieu of the provisions of this Article 12.1. In the absence of such provisions in an Award Agreement, and unless otherwise determined by the Committee in its sole discretion prior to a Change in Control, if a Participant who is actively employed by the Company incurs a Covered Termination of Employment (as defined in Article 12.2 below) on or within twelve (12) months following a Change in Control (as defined in Article 12.3 below), or if a Change in Control occurs in connection with which no Awards, publicly-traded Shares or substitute equity interests are available, then the following shall occur:

(a) Restricted Stock and RSUs. With respect to any Restricted Stock, RSUs or any Other Share-Based Awards taking a form substantially the same as Restricted Stock or RSUs, the restrictions, forfeiture conditions, deferral of settlement and conditions on distribution other than those imposed by law applicable to such Awards shall lapse, and all such Awards shall be deemed fully vested, as of the date of the Participant’s Covered Termination of Employment, and the subject Shares, or equity interests that are substituted for the subject Shares as a result of the Change in Control, shall be distributed to the Participant immediately following such Covered Termination of Employment. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, in the event no Awards, publicly-traded Shares or substitute equity interests are available in connection with the Change in Control, the restrictions, forfeiture conditions, deferral of settlement and conditions on distribution other than those imposed by law applicable to such Restricted Stock, RSU and Other Share-Based Awards shall lapse, and all such Awards shall be deemed fully vested, as of the date of the Change in Control, and the Awards shall be distributed to the Participant immediately following the Change in Control. In the Committee’s discretion, the distribution of Awards as described in this Article 12.1(a) may be made in the form of a cash payment equal to the product of (i) the per Share value, which shall be (I) in the case of a payment made immediately following a Covered Termination of Employment, the Fair Market Value per Share as of the date of the Covered Termination of Employment, or (II) in the case of a payment made immediately after the Change in Control, the Change in Control Price per Share in connection with the transaction resulting in the Change in Control, and (ii) the number of subject Shares or substitute equity awards that otherwise would be distributed to the Participant if available and the Committee had not determined to pay cash.

(b) Options and SARs. As of the date of the Participant’s Covered Termination of Employment, all of the unvested or unexercisable Options, SARs or Other Share-Based Awards taking a form substantially the same as Options or SARs held by the Participant shall be deemed to be fully vested and exercisable with respect to the subject Shares, or other equity interests that are substituted for the Shares as a result of the Change in Control, and any other conditions on such Awards shall lapse, other than those imposed by law. Such Awards shall remain exercisable until the earlier of (i) the end of their original term, or (ii) twelve (12) months (or in the case of an Approved Retiree, five (5) years) following the Participant’s Covered Termination of Employment. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, in the event no Awards, publicly-traded Shares or substitute equity interests are available in connection with the Change in Control, the restrictions, forfeiture conditions, deferral of settlement and conditions on distribution other than those imposed by law applicable to such Options, SARs and Other Share-Based Awards shall lapse, and all such Awards shall be deemed fully vested, as of the date of the Change in Control. In the Committee’s discretion, a cash payment may be made to the Participant immediately following the Participant’s Covered Termination of Employment or the date of the Change in Control, whichever is the date upon which the Participant is deemed to be fully vested as determined under this Article 12.1(b), in an amount equal to (i) the per Share value, which shall be (I) in the case of a payment made immediately following a Covered Termination of Employment, the Fair Market Value per Share as of the date of the Covered Termination of Employment, or (II) in the case of a payment made immediately after the Change in Control, the Change in Control Price per Share in connection with the transaction resulting in the Change in Control, (ii) less the Exercise Price, and (iii) multiplied by the number of subject Shares or substitute equity awards that otherwise would be distributed to the Participant if available and the Committee had not determined to pay cash.

(c) Other Share-Based Awards. All of the Participant’s Other Share-Based Awards subject to performance-based vesting for which the performance period has not expired shall be deemed to be fully vested as of the Participant’s Covered Termination of Employment and be paid out immediately thereafter, where such payment shall be based on a target level of performance, pro-rated for the days of such performance period through the date of the Covered Termination of Employment. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, in the event no Awards, publicly-traded Shares or substitute equity interests are available in connection with the Change in Control, the restrictions, forfeiture conditions, deferral of settlement and conditions on distribution other than those imposed by law applicable to such Other Share-Based Awards shall lapse, and all such Awards shall be deemed to be fully vested, as of the date of the Change in Control, in which case payment shall be based on a target level of performance pro rated for the days of such performance period through the date of the Change in Control. Any Other Share-Based Awards other than those described in Articles 12.1(a) and (b), and other than as described above in this Article 12.1(c), shall be treated in a manner similar to that described in Articles 12.1(a) and (b).

12.2 Covered Termination of Employment. For purposes of this Article 12, “Covered Termination of Employment” shall mean any involuntary termination of employment of a Participant, provided that such termination does not result from the Participant’s serious misconduct within the meaning of Article 3.6.

12.3 Change in Control Definition. A Change in Control shall occur if:

(a) Acquisition of Voting Securities. Any Person directly or indirectly becomes the Beneficial Owner of more than thirty percent (30%) of the Company’s then outstanding voting securities (measured on the basis of voting power), provided that the Person (i) has not acquired such voting securities directly from

MARRIOTT VACATIONS WORLDWIDE 2024 PROXY STATEMENTAppendix BB-11


the Company, (ii) is not the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, (iii) is not a trustee or other fiduciary holding voting securities under an employee benefit plan of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, (iv) is not an underwriter temporarily holding the voting securities in connection with an offering thereof, and (v) is not a corporation owned, directly or indirectly, by the stockholders of the Company in substantially the same proportions as their ownership of Company stock; or

(b) Merger or Consolidation. The Company merges or consolidates with any other corporation, other than a merger or consolidation resulting in the voting securities of the Company outstanding immediately prior to such merger or consolidation representing fifty percent (50%) or more of the combined voting power of the voting securities of the Company, the other corporation (if such corporation is the surviving corporation) or the parent of the Company or other corporation, in each case outstanding immediately after such merger or consolidation; or

(c) Change in Majority of Board. Continuing Directors cease to represent a majority of the Board, where “Continuing Directors” shall mean the directors of the Board immediately after the Effective Date , and any other director whose appointment, election or nomination for election by the stockholders is approved by at least a majority of the Continuing Directors at such time; or

(d) Sale, Liquidation or Other Disposition. The stockholders of the Company approve a plan of complete liquidation of the Company or the Company sells or disposes of all or substantially all of its assets.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of Article 12.3, with respect to any Award that is subject to Code Section 409A, in order to be treated as a Change in Control, any event described in this Article 12.3 also must qualify as a “change in control event” within the meaning of Code Section 409A(a)(2)(A)(v) and the regulations thereunder to the extent required for compliance with Code Section 409A.

12.4Section 280G Cut-back in Benefits. Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Plan, unless otherwise specifically provided by the Committee in an Award Agreement, in the event that the amount of payments or other benefits payable to any Participant under this Plan, together with any payments or benefits payable under any other plan, program, arrangement or agreement maintained by the Company or one of its affiliates, would constitute an “excess parachute payment” (within the meaning of Section 280G or the Code), the payments under this Plan shall be reduced in a manner determined by the Company (by the minimum possible amounts) until no amount payable to the Participant under the Plan constitutes an “excess parachute payment” (within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code). All determinations required to be made under this Article 12.4, including whether a payment would result in an “excess parachute payment” and the assumptions utilized in arriving at such determination, shall be made by a registered public accounting firm selected by the Company.

Article 13 Rights of Participants

13.1 Employment or Service. Nothing in the Plan shall interfere with or limit in any way the right of the Company to terminate any Participant’s employment or service at any time, nor confer upon any Participant any right to continue in the employ or service of the Company.

13.2 Participation. No Employee shall have the right to be selected to receive an Award under this Plan, or, having been so selected, to be selected to receive a future Award.

Article 14 Amendment, Modification, and Termination

14.1 Amendment, Modification, and Termination. The Board may at any time and from time to time, alter, amend, suspend or terminate the Plan in whole or in part; provided, however, that the Board may, in its sole discretion, condition the adoption of any amendment of the Plan on the approval thereof by the requisite vote of the stockholders of the Company entitled to vote thereon. The Board shall condition the adoption of an amendment on such a stockholder vote to the extent required by applicable law or the requirements of the principal securities exchange or market on which the Shares are then traded, or to the extent such amendment would diminish the protections afforded by Article 14.3.

14.2 Adjustment of Awards upon the Occurrence of Certain Unusual or Nonrecurring Events. The Committee may make adjustments in the terms and conditions of, and the criteria included in, Awards in recognition of unusual or nonrecurring events (including, without limitation, the events described in Article 4.2 hereof) affecting the Company or the financial statements of the Company or of changes in applicable laws, regulations, or accounting principles, whenever the Committee determines that such adjustments are appropriate in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under the Plan.

14.3 Awards Previously Granted; No Repricing or Cash Buyouts of Options or SARs.

(b) Repricing and Cash Buyouts Prohibited. Except as provided under Article 14.2, an outstanding SAR or Option may not be (i) amended to reduce its Exercise Price, (ii) cancelled in exchange for the re-grant of a SAR or Option with a reduced Exercise Price, nor (iii) except in the case of SARs or Options with an Exercise Price above the then-current Share price, cancelled in exchange for other Awards or for a payment made in cash or Shares, unless approved by stockholders.

14.4 Substitution of Awards in Mergers and Acquisitions. Awards may be granted under the Plan from time to time in substitution for awards held by employees or directors of entities who become or are about to become employees or directors of the Company or a Subsidiary as the result of a merger, consolidation or other acquisition of the employing entity or the acquisition by the Company or a Subsidiary of the assets or stock of the employing entity, and such Awards shall not deplete the number of Shares reserved under Article 4.1. The terms and conditions of any substitute awards so granted may vary from the terms and conditions set forth hereof to the extent that the Committee deems appropriate at the time of grant to conform the substitute awards to the provisions of the awards for which they are substituted.

Article 15 Withholding

15.1 Tax Withholding. The Company shall have the power and the right to deduct from any amount otherwise due to the Participant, or withhold, or require a Participant to remit to the Company, an amount sufficient to satisfy Federal, state, and local income, employment or other related taxes, domestic or foreign, required by law or regulation to be withheld with respect to any taxable event arising as a result of this Plan. In addition, subject to any restrictions on transfer, the Company may permit a Participant to satisfy a withholding obligation required in connection with the issuance or vesting of Shares under an Award through the use of a broker-assisted sell-to-cover transaction.

15.2 Share Withholding. With respect to withholding required in connection with any Award, the Company may require, or the Committee may permit a Participant to elect, that the withholding requirement be satisfied, in whole or in part, by having the Company withhold Shares having a Fair Market Value on the date the tax is to be determined up to the maximum statutory total tax which could be withheld on the transaction. Any election by a Participant shall be subject to any restrictions or limitations that the Committee, in its sole discretion, deems appropriate.

Article 16 Indemnification

Except as prohibited by law, each person who is or shall have been a member of the Committee, or of the Board, shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Company against and from any loss, cost, liability or expense that may be imposed upon or reasonably incurred by him or her in connection with or resulting from any claim, action, suit or proceeding to which he or she may be a party or in which he or she may be involved by reason of any action taken or failure to act under the Plan, other than by willful misconduct, and against and from any and all amounts paid by him or her in settlement thereof, with the Company’s approval, or paid by him or her in satisfaction of any judgment in any such action, suit or proceeding against him or her, provided he or she shall give the Company an opportunity, at its own expense, to handle and defend the same before he or she undertakes to handle and defend it on his or her own behalf. The foregoing right of indemnification shall not be exclusive of any other rights of indemnification to which such persons may be entitled under the Company’s Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws, as a matter of law, or otherwise, or any power that the Company may have to indemnify them or hold them harmless.

Article 17 Code Section 409A

17.1 General. To the extent that Code Section 409A may apply to any Awards under the Plan, it is intended that the terms of the Plan and such Awards meet the applicable requirements of Code Section 409A so that a Participant is not taxed under Code Section 409A with respect to such Awards until such time as Shares or other amounts are distributed to the Participant in accordance with the Plan’s and the Awards’ terms. For this purpose, the Plan and the Awards will be administered and interpreted to comply with Code Section 409A and any applicable Treasury or IRS guidance.

17.2 Delay for Specified Employees. To the extent that any Awards under the Plan may be subject to Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i), distributions of Shares or other amounts pursuant to such Awards on account of a termination of employment of a Participant who is a Specified Employee (as defined as follows) shall be made or commence not before the date which is six (6) months following the termination of employment, except in the event of the Participant’s death. Any distribution that is delayed under this Article 17.2 shall be distributed on the first day of the seventh month following the Specified Employee’s termination of employment (without affecting the timing of any subsequent installment that is not within the six-month period following termination of employment). For this purpose, a Specified Employee is a person described under Treasury Regulation section 1.409A-1(i), applying the default rules thereunder, except that the definition of compensation for purposes of identifying Specified Employees is the safe harbor definition of compensation set forth under Treasury Regulation section 1.415(c)- 2(d)(4).

Article 18 Successors

All obligations of the Company under the Plan with respect to Awards granted hereunder shall be binding on any successor to the Company, whether the existence of such successor is the result of a direct or indirect purchase, of all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company, or a merger, consolidation or otherwise.
