ACADIA REALTY TRUST

Consistent with the Company's long-standing policy adopted by the Board of Trustees and the Company’s focus on creating long-term shareholder value, the Company's NEOs have the option of exchanging all or a portion of their cash bonus for restricted share units or LTIP Units. In 2024, the vesting terms for the LTIP Units granted in lieu of the cash bonus was a five-year ratable vesting period for our CEO and a three-year ratable vesting period for other NEOs. All LTIP Units for the CEO and other NEOs are also subject to an additional 2-year post-vest holding period and are granted based on a 20% discounted share price. The Compensation Committee believes that this deferral feature reinforces a long-term focus and promotes the retention of our management team and is appropriate relative to other REITs that utilize similar bonus deferral programs (the median discount used by other REITs is 20% based on an average three-year vesting period).

Furthermore, the 20% discounted value is factored into each NEO’s pay opportunity to ensure that the deferral feature would not result in compensation in excess relative to our peers.

Based on the election of each of the NEOs, the 2024 annual incentives were paid as follows:
