ITEM 10.

DIRECTORS, EXECUTIVE OFFICERS AND CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

The Board of Directors

We operate under the direction of our Board of Directors (the “Board of Directors” or the “Board”). The Board of Directors oversees our operations. We currently have seven directors, one of whom is our Chief Executive Officer, Aaron S. Halfacre, and six of whom are independent. For biographical information regarding our directors, see “—Executive Officers and Directors” below.

During 2021, the Board of Directors held nine meetings and acted by unanimous consent on nine occasions. There are three committees of the Board of Directors, each of which is composed entirely of independent directors: the audit committee, the compensation committee and the nominating and corporate governance committee. Information regarding each of these committees is set forth below. During 2021, each of our directors attended at least 75% of the aggregate meetings of the Board and the committees of the Board on which he or she served. Generally, our directors are also encouraged to attend our annual meeting of stockholders each year. Four of our then-current directors attended our 2021 annual meeting of stockholders held on June 30, 2021.

Board Leadership Structure

The composition of the Board of Directors ensures strong oversight by independent directors. Adam S. Markman has been appointed as our Chairman of the Board and, as noted above, our audit committee, compensation committee and the nominating and corporate governance committee are composed entirely of independent directors. Our Company’s management has been led by Mr. Halfacre, our Chief Executive Officer, since January 1, 2019. As Chairman of the Board, Mr. Markman is responsible for leading Board meetings and generally setting the agendas for Board meetings in consultation with Mr. Halfacre and subject to the requests of other directors. Mr. Halfacre is responsible for providing information to the other directors in advance of meetings and between meetings. The direct involvement of Mr. Halfacre in the Company’s operations makes him best positioned to lead strategic planning sessions and determine the time allocated to each agenda item in discussions of our short- and long-term objectives.

The Role of the Board of Directors in our Risk Oversight Process

Our executive officers are responsible for the day-to-day management of risks faced by the Company, while the Board of Directors, as a whole and through its committees, has responsibility for the oversight of risk management.

The audit committee oversees risk management in the areas of financial reporting, internal controls and compliance with legal and regulatory requirements. The compensation committee discharges the Board of Directors’ responsibilities relating to the compensation of the executive officers. The nominating and corporate governance committee is responsible for overseeing the organization, function and composition of our Board of Directors and its committees, the self-evaluation of the Board as a whole and of the individual directors, and the Board’s evaluation of management. The nominating and corporate governance committee periodically reviews the Company’s corporate governance policies and procedures and, if appropriate, recommends changes to the Board of Directors.

Although each committee is responsible for evaluating certain risks and overseeing the management of such risks, the entire Board of Directors is regularly informed through committee reports about such risks as well as through regular reports directly from the executive officers responsible for oversight of particular risks within our Company.

Executive Officers and Directors

We have provided below certain information about our executive officers and directors. Our Board of Directors currently consists of seven directors, six of whom are independent directors in accordance with the listing standards of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”).

Delinquent Section 16(a) Reports

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires the Company’s directors, executive officers and any persons beneficially owning more than 10% of any registered class of our equity securities (collectively, the “insiders”) to report their initial ownership of those securities and most changes in that ownership to the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). To the Company’s knowledge, based solely on a review of the copies of the Section 16(a) reports furnished to the Company by the insiders or written representations from the insiders that no other reports were required with respect to the year ended December 31, 2021, all insiders timely filed all Section 16(a) reports required to be filed by them for 2021, with the exception of the following reports that were not filed timely:

The Company discovered in March 2022 that Forms 4 for each of our directors for the period from December 21, 2021 through March 1, 2022 had been timely filed but due to a data entry error did not reflect the Company’s CIK code. In addition, a Form 4 filed on behalf of Mr. Nolan on September 24, 2021 was also timely filed but due to a data entry error did not reflect the Company’s CIK Code. These reports were not visible on the Company’s SEC file. On March 28, 2022, the Company discovered that the last successful Form 4 filings were on November 24, 2021. After inquiry, the Company determined that the delinquent Forms 4 contained an incorrect CIK identifier due to a transposition error and proceeded to correct this error and refile the Forms 4. The following table summarizes the delinquent Form 4 filings:

Name of Director	Number of Late Reports	Number of Transactions Not Reported on a Timely Basis

The Audit Committee

Our audit committee’s function is to assist the Board of Directors in fulfilling its responsibilities by overseeing (i) our accounting and financial reporting processes, (ii) the integrity of our financial statements, (iii) our compliance with legal and regulatory requirements, (iv) the selection, appointment and compensation of our independent registered public accounting firm and (v) our independent registered public accounting firm’s qualifications, performance and independence. The audit committee fulfills these responsibilities primarily by carrying out the activities enumerated in the audit committee charter.

ITEM 11.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

Compensation of Executive Officers

This discussion outlines our executive compensation policies and decisions as they relate to the Company’s named executive officers. The named executive officers for 2021 were Aaron S. Halfacre, our Chief Executive Officer and President, and Raymond J. Pacini, our Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer, Secretary and Treasurer.

Prior to December 31, 2019, we did not employ our executive officers, and our executive officers did not receive compensation directly from us for services rendered to us. Our executive officers were officers and/or employees of, and in some cases held an ownership interest in our former sponsor, and our executive officers were compensated by our former sponsor, in part, for their services to us.

As a result of our acquisition of the business of our former sponsor and internalization of management (the “Self-Management Transaction”) which closed on December 31, 2019, starting January 1, 2020, our executive officers are employed with us and receive compensation directly from us for services rendered. Messrs. Halfacre and Pacini received annual salaries of $250,000 and $275,000, respectively, during 2021.

Table of Contents

On January 25, 2021, the compensation committee of our Board of Directors recommended, and our Board of Directors approved, the grant of 40,000 restricted units of Class R limited partnership interest (the “Class R OP Units”) in Modiv Operating Partnership, LP, our operating partnership (the “Operating Partnership”), to Mr. Halfacre for his 2020 compensation and 170,667 Class R OP Units as equity incentive compensation for the next three years, and the grant to Mr. Pacini of 33,333 Class R OP Units as equity incentive compensation for the next three years and a cash bonus of $175,000 for 2020 which was paid during the first quarter of 2021. The Class R OP Units fully vest on March 31, 2024 and are then convertible into units of Class C limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership (“Class C OP Units”) at a conversion ratio of 1:1, which conversion ratio can increase to 1:2.5 Class C OP Units if the Company generates funds from operations of $1.05, or more, per weighted average fully-diluted share outstanding for the year ending December 31, 2023. At this time, we cannot reasonably estimate the probability of achieving these performance hurdles.

In connection with the Self-Management Transaction, on December 31, 2019, we entered into restricted units award agreements (each, an “Award Agreement”) with each of Messrs. Halfacre and Pacini regarding the grant of a number of units of Class P limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership (the “Class P OP Units”). Mr. Halfacre was granted a total of 40,000 Class P OP Units and Mr. Pacini was granted a total of 16,029 Class P OP Units, of which 11,024 Class P OP Units and 2,953 Class P OP Units were issued to Messrs. Halfacre and Pacini, respectively, in connection with their entry into restrictive covenant agreements in consideration for the stock portion of their 2020 equity incentive compensation. Mr. Halfacre also independently purchased a total of 25,097 units of Class M limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership (the “Class M OP Units”) from other investors during 2019 and 2020. Following the listing of our common stock on the NYSE in February 2022, Mr. Halfacre independently purchased 11,000 shares of our common stock in the open market.

The Class P OP Units and Class R OP Units are intended to be treated as “profits interests” in the Operating Partnership, which are non-voting, non-dividend accruing, and are not able to be transferred or exchanged prior to the earlier of (1) March 31, 2024, (2) a change of control (as defined in the Third Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership of the Operating Partnership (as amended, the “OP Agreement”)), or (3) the date of the employee’s involuntary termination without cause (as defined in the relevant Award Agreement) (collectively, the “Lockup Period”). Following the expiration of the Lockup Period, the Class P OP Units are convertible into Class C OP Units at a conversion ratio of 1.6667 Class C OP Units for each one Class P OP Unit; provided, however, that the foregoing conversion ratio shall be subject to adjustment as provided in the OP Agreement which includes a maximum conversion ratio of 1:3 if the Company achieves the performance hurdles for both assets under management of $1.551 billion and adjusted funds from operations (“AFFO”) of $2.10 per share for the year ending December 31, 2023. At this time, we cannot reasonably estimate the probability of achieving these performance hurdles.

(1)

Mr. Halfacre elected to receive the balance of his 2020 salary and bonus in 40,000 Class R OP Units, which had a value of $21.00 per Class R OP Unit on the January 25, 2021 grant date. The Class R OP Units will vest on the earlier of (i) March 31, 2024; (ii) a change of control of our Company (as defined in the OP Agreement); or (iii) the date of Mr. Halfacre’s involuntary termination without cause (as defined in Mr. Halfacre’s Award Agreement).

(2)	Mr. Pacini’s cash bonus for 2020 was paid during February 2021 and his cash bonus for 2021 was paid in March 2022.

(3)

See the discussion above regarding the grant of Class P OP Units which were valued based on the $21.00 net asset value per share of our common stock as of December 31, 2020. The value of Class P OP Units attributable to 2020 incentive compensation above was restated from prior disclosure to exclude Class P OP Units that were issued on December 31, 2019 as signing bonuses.

(4)	See the discussion above regarding the grant of Class R OP Units on January 25, 2021 which were valued based on an illiquid security with a $21.00 net asset value per share as of the grant date.

Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year-End

The following table sets forth the information with respect to outstanding equity awards held by our named executive officers as of December 31, 2021.

See the discussion above regarding the grant of Class P OP Units. The market value above reflects the Company’s common stock closing price of $17.94 on March 31, 2022 since the Company’s common stock was not publicly traded as of December 31, 2021 and reflects the current conversion ratio of 1:1.6667. If the Company achieves the performance hurdles for both assets under management of $1.551 billion and AFFO of $2.10 per share for the year ending December 31, 2023, the Class P Units would convert into Class C OP Units at the maximum conversion ratio of 1:3 and the value as of March 31, 2022 would be $2,152,800 for Mr. Halfacre and $862,681 for Mr. Pacini. At this time, we cannot reasonably estimate the probability of achieving these performance hurdles.

ITEM 13.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE

Director Independence

The NYSE listing standards set forth objective requirements for a director to satisfy, at a minimum, in order to be determined to be independent by our Board of Directors. In addition, in order to conclude a director is independent in accordance with the NYSE listing standards, our Board of Directors must also consider all relevant facts and circumstances, including commercial, industrial, banking, consulting, legal, accounting, charitable and familial relationships. Pursuant to our Corporate Governance Guidelines and the NYSE listing standards, which require that a majority of our directors be independent within the meaning of the NYSE listing standards, our Board of Directors undertook a review of the independence of all non-management directors. Our Board of Directors has affirmatively determined that the following six of our seven directors are independent under the NYSE listing standards and our Corporate Governance Guidelines and do not have a relationship with us that would interfere with such person’s ability to exercise independent judgment as a member of the Board: Asma Ishaq, Adam Markman, Curtis McWilliams, Thomas Nolan, Jr., Kimberly Smith and Connie Tirondola.

Related Party Transactions and Certain Conflict Resolution Measures

In order to ameliorate the risks created by conflicts of interest, our Board of Directors has delegated certain responsibilities to our independent directors acting by majority vote. In general, an independent director is a person who is not one of our officers or employees or an officer or employee of one of our affiliates.

Acquisition parameters are established by our Board of Directors, including a majority of our independent directors, and potential acquisitions outside of these parameters require approval by our Board of Directors, including a majority of our independent directors.

On January 31, 2022, we acquired an industrial property and related equipment in Saint Paul, Minnesota that is used in indoor vertical farming for $8,079,000. The purchase price represents a 7.00% cap rate and the property has a 20-year lease with annual rent escalations of 2.5%. We funded this acquisition with a portion of the proceeds from our September 2021 offering of 7.375% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Stock, $0.001 par value per share. The tenant is Kalera, Inc., which was introduced to us by Curtis B. McWilliams, one of our independent directors. Since Mr. McWilliams was serving as the Interim Chief Executive Officer of Kalera AS at the time of the acquisition, all of the disinterested members of our Board of Directors approved this transaction.

Pre-Approval Policies

In order to ensure that the provision of services by our independent registered public accounting firm does not impair the auditors’ independence, the audit committee pre-approves all auditing services performed for us by our independent auditors, as well as all permitted non-audit services. In determining whether or not to pre-approve services, the audit committee considers whether the service is a permissible service under the rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC. The audit committee may, in its discretion, delegate to one or more of its members the authority to pre-approve any audit or non-audit services to be performed by our independent auditors, provided any such approval is presented to and approved by the full audit committee at its next scheduled meeting.

For the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, all services rendered by Baker Tilly were pre-approved in accordance with the policies and procedures described above.
