NOTICE OF ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS
Notice is hereby given that the 2024 annual meeting of stockholders (the “2024 Annual Meeting”) of comScore, Inc. (the “company,” “Comscore,” “we” or “our”) will be held at Carr Workplaces, located at 1818 Library Street, Suite 500, Reston, Virginia 20190 on June 12, 2024, at 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time for the following purposes:
| 1) | to elect the four nominees named in this proxy statement as Class II directors to serve for terms expiring at our 2027 annual meeting of stockholders, to hold office until their respective successors have been duly elected and qualified; |
| 2) | to approve, on a non-binding advisory basis, the compensation paid to our named executive officers; |
| 3) | to recommend, on a non-binding advisory basis, whether the advisory vote on executive compensation should occur every year, every two years or every three years; |
| 4) | to ratify the appointment of Deloitte & Touche LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024; |
| 5) | to approve an amendment to our Amended and Restated 2018 Equity and Incentive Compensation Plan to increase the number of shares of our common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”) available for grant by 900,000; |
| 6) | to adopt an amendment to the Certificate of Designations of our Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Series B Preferred Stock”) to clarify that the price thresholds in Sections 4(c)(i)(a), (b) and (c) of the Certificate of Designations shall be adjusted as appropriate to give effect to the reverse stock split effectuated by the company on December 20, 2023; and |
| 7) | to transact any other business that is properly brought before the meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof. |
Stockholders of record at the close of business on April 22, 2024 are entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the 2024 Annual Meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof. The presence, in person or represented by proxy, of a majority of issued and outstanding shares of our Common Stock and Series B Preferred Stock (on anas-converted basis) on the record date will be required to establish a quorum at the 2024 Annual Meeting. Where a separate vote by a class or series of stock is required, the holders of a majority in voting power of issued and outstanding shares of such class or series entitled to vote on such matter, present in person or represented by proxy, shall constitute a quorum with respect to such matter.
We are furnishing our proxy materials to our stockholders over the Internet rather than in paper form. We believe that this delivery process reduces our environmental impact and lowers the costs of printing and distributing our proxy materials without affecting our stockholders’ timely access to this important information. Accordingly, stockholders of record at the close of business on April 22, 2024 will receive a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials (the “Notice of Internet Availability”) and will receive notice of any postponements or adjournments of the meeting. The Notice of Internet Availability is being distributed to stockholders beginning on April 29, 2024.
Your vote is very important. Whether or not you plan to attend the 2024 Annual Meeting, we encourage you to read the proxy statement and vote as soon as possible. For specific instructions on how to vote your shares, please refer to the section in the proxy statement entitled “Questions and Answers About the 2024 Annual Meeting and Procedural Matters” and the instructions in the Notice of Internet Availability. If you are a stockholder of record of the company’s Common Stock or Series B Preferred Stock, you may cast your vote by proxy or in person at the 2024 Annual Meeting. If your shares are held by a bank, broker or other nominee, you should instruct such nominee on how to vote your shares.
Thank you for your continued support of Comscore.
