[Investor Contacts],
We appreciated speaking with you this past year, and our Board and
management took your feedback into consideration as we continue to
take steps to enhance our governance, compensation and
sustainability practices. I am reaching out to request a time to
speak with your team in advance of our May 13th Annual Meeting.
Our proposed agenda for the discussion includes:
|
• |
|
An overview of APA’s executive compensation program and how
its structure aligns with company strategy, including rationale for
recent enhancements and consideration of shareholder feedback in
the overall program structure
|
|
• |
|
Executive pay decisions in light of COVID-19 and macro events impacting the
oil and gas industry, including linking incentives to ESG
achievements by adding ESG metrics to both the short-term and
long-term incentive plans
|
|
• |
|
Perspectives on our Board’s commitment to regular
refreshment with the addition of Dave Stover, former CEO of
Noble Energy, and Lt. Gen. Charles Hooper, former Director of the
Defense Security Cooperation Agency, in February 2022
|
|
• |
|
APA’s heightened focus on sustainability, demonstrated by
the introduction of a Climate Statement and a fully aligned TCFD
scenario analysis
|
Our team is available for a conference call during the weeks of
[May 2nd and
May 9th].
Please let us know what works best for your team and we will do our
best to accommodate your schedules.
We look forward to connecting with you.
