Mr. Berg is a senior energy industry executive with extensive commercial and operational experience, including leadership of strategic planning, business development, land, water management, completion and well services, environmental, sustainability, legal, government relations and communications. During his 20-year career with Pioneer, then an NYSE-listed independent oil and gas exploration and production company, first as Executive Vice President & General Counsel from 2005 to 2014 and then as Executive Vice President, Corporate Operations from 2014 until its merger with ExxonMobil in 2024, he played a key role in transforming the company into a major U.S. shale resource developer. He led the negotiating team for the $65 billion merger with ExxonMobil as well as multiple multibillion-dollar mergers, global divestitures, and cross-border joint ventures. Prior to joining Pioneer, Mr. Berg served from 2002 to 2004 as Senior Vice President, General Counsel & Secretary of Hanover Compressor Company, then an NYSE-listed company specializing in natural gas compression and processing, where he instituted disciplined internal controls, resolved a U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) investigation, and settled securities class action litigation.

The majority of the members of the Board at any given time must qualify as “independent” under the rules of the NYSE.
Our Board has undertaken a review of the independence of each of our directors and director nominees and has affirmatively determined that each of Messrs. Armour, Berg, Best, Gobe, Lawrence and Volkov and Mses. Ricciardello and Vion are “independent,” as defined by the NYSE rules. Under the NYSE rules, a director can be independent only if (a) the director does not trigger a categorical bar to independence and (b) our Board affirmatively determines that the director has no material relationship with the Company (either directly or as a partner, stockholder or officer of an organization that has a relationship with the Company).
Based on information provided by the directors and director nominees concerning their background, employment and affiliations, our Board has determined that these directors do not have a material relationship with the Company (either directly or as a partner, stockholder or officer of an organization that has a relationship with the Company).

Reward executives for exceptional performance and hold them accountable for underperformance in a manner that adheres to our values
|
| |
Align executive interests with those of our stockholders by making a substantial portion of compensation performance-based and “at risk”
|
| |
Provide the necessary flexibility to respond to varying market conditions and changing circumstances with a structure that ensures accountability in our cyclical and volatile business

What We Do
|
| |
What We Don’t Do
|
|
| |
At least 50% of Long Term Incentive Awards are performance-based for Named Executive Officers
Use a mix of absolute and relative financial performance metrics (including relative total shareholder return (“TSR”)) in our incentive plans to avoid duplication of incentives across short- and long-term programs
Use safety metrics in our Annual Bonus Plan
Claw-back Policy
Independent compensation consultant
Independent Compensation Committee reviews and approves the compensation of our Named Executive Officers
Annual Say-on-Pay vote
Annual Compensation Committee assessment of compensation practices to eliminate any excessive risk
Significant stock ownership requirements
|
| |
Single-trigger change in control payments
Tax gross-ups on severance or equity compensation
Repricing of stock options
Backdating of stock options
Employment agreements with executive officers
Derivative or hedging transactions or pledging of our securities by directors and executive officers
|
|
| | II. WHAT GUIDES OUR PROGRAM | |
| |
1
|
| |
Reward for Exceptional Performance and Accountability for Underperformance
|
| |
Our Named Executive Officers should be rewarded for exceptional performance and held accountable for underperformance. Our Named Executive Officers must work to achieve these goals in a manner that is consistent with our values and policies. We tie a significant portion of Named Executive Officer compensation to financial, strategic, and operational performance over short- and long-term horizons and may modify or claw back compensation if necessary.
|
|
| | | |
| |
2
|
| |
Align Interests of Executives and Stockholders
|
| |
Compensation for our Named Executive Officers should align their interests with those of our stockholders. A substantial portion of pay is variable and “at risk,” including annual bonuses tied to performance goals and long-term equity awards (time-vested RSUs and PSUs). Our Stock Ownership Guidelines also require each Named Executive Officer to retain significant ownership in the Company’s common stock such that they are invested in our success over the long term along with our stockholders.
|
|
| | | |
| |
3
|
| |
Flexibility to Respond to Changing Circumstances
|
| |
We are in a cyclical and volatile business. As a result, our Compensation Committee retains discretion to adjust Annual Bonus Plan payouts up or down from the amount that would be indicated by the pre- established performance metrics if circumstances so warrant.
|
|
| | | |
| |
4
|
| |
Industry Competitive
|
| |
With support from an independent compensation consultant, we both monitor market practices among companies competing for executive talent to remain competitive in pay levels and design and regularly evaluate our peer group as our business and strategy evolve.
|
|
| | | |
| |
5
|
| |
Internally Consistent and Equitable
|
| |
Executive compensation should be internally consistent and equitable. We consider peer pay, internal consistency and equity, and the experience, tenure, responsibilities, and contributions of each Named Executive Officer.

| |
We pay a mix of compensation which includes short-term cash and long-term equity-based compensation.
|
|
| |
|
| |
We base the vesting and payment of our incentive compensation awards on several different performance metrics, which discourages our employees from placing undue emphasis on any one metric or aspect of our business at the expense of others.
|
|
| |
|
| |
We believe that our performance metrics are reasonably challenging yet should not require inappropriate risk-taking to achieve.
|
|
| |
|
| |
The performance metrics for awards under our Annual Bonus Plan include quantitative financial and operational metrics as well as qualitative metrics related to our operations, strategy, and other aspects of our business, as well as the individual performance of our executives, and our Compensation Committee retains discretion to modify payout amounts under the Annual Bonus Plan, as appropriate.
|
|
| | | | | ||
| |
|
| |
The performance periods under our PSUs overlap, and our time-vested RSUs generally vest over a three-year period. This mitigates the motivation to maximize performance in any one period at the expense of others.
|
|
| |
|
| |
Our Named Executive Officers are required to own our common stock at levels provided in our Executive Stock Ownership Guidelines.
|
|
| |
|
| |
We have instituted a claw-back policy, which allows us to claw-back compensation in the event of a financial restatement.
|
|
| |
|
| |
We believe that we have an effective management process for developing and executing our short- and long-term business plans.
|
|
| |
|
| |
Our compensation policies and programs are overseen by the Compensation Committee.
|
|
| |
|
| |
The Compensation Committee retains an independent compensation consultant.
