BOARD AND COMMITTEE GOVERNANCE

Director Qualifications

Our Board believes that maintaining a Board with a range of skills and experience meeting our needs is important, as is maintaining a size that facilitates group discussion and collegiality.

Our Nominating and Governance Committee, consisting solely of independent directors as determined under applicable NASDAQ listing standards, is responsible for reviewing with our Board, on an annual basis, the requisite skills and characteristics of potential new Board members as well as the composition of our Board as a whole. This assessment includes members’ qualification as independent, as well as consideration of character, judgment, diversity, age, skills, including financial literacy, and experience in the context of the needs of our Board and our business. Nominees for directorship are selected by our Nominating and Governance Committee and approved by our Board in accordance with such policies and principles as our Board may promulgate after considering the recommendation of our Nominating and Governance Committee.

Our Corporate Governance Guidelines emphasize the importance of maintaining a Board with a range of skills and experience meeting the needs of the Company. Our Nominating and Governance Committee seeks to identify for Board positions the most qualified candidates, without regard to race, color, veteran status, religion, gender, sex, sexual orientation, medical condition, national origin, marital status or any other characteristics protected by law. Our Nominating and Governance Committee does not have a formal policy with respect to diversity; however, our Board and Nominating and Governance Committee believe that it is important that the members of our Board represent diverse viewpoints, and are committed to an inclusive approach in identifying candidates who provide a variety skills and experience to the Board, including qualified female Board candidates. Our Nominating and Governance Committee’s process for identifying and evaluating nominees typically involves a series of internal discussions, review of information concerning candidates, and interviews with selected candidates. From time to time, we also have engaged one or more executive search consulting firms to assist in the identification and recruitment of potential director candidates.

Our Corporate Governance Guidelines provide that each director should be able and prepared to devote sufficient time and effort to his or her duties as a director. Without the prior approval of the Board of Directors, our directors are not permitted to sit on more than five publicly traded company boards or, if such director is a CEO of a public company, he or she is not permitted to sit on the board of more than two public companies besides the board of his or her own company.

Our Board does not have term limits. Directors who have served on our Board for an extended period of time are able to provide valuable insight into our operations and future based on their experience with and understanding of our industry, business operations, history, policy and objectives. Our Board believes that, as an alternative to term limits, it can ensure that the Board continues to evolve through the evaluation and nomination process required by our Corporate Governance Guidelines.

Our Corporate Governance Guidelines also provide that, as a general matter, a director should not stand for

re-election

as a

non-employee

director after his or her 75th birthday.

Non-employee

directors are required to tender their resignation no later than the expiration of their elected term following their 75th birthday. Retirement of a director who has reached the age of retirement may be postponed if our Board determines that it would be in the best interests of RealPage and its stockholders under the particular circumstances. In addition, our Board may nominate any person for election as a

non-employee

director regardless of his or her age if our Board determines that, due to his or her unique capabilities or special circumstances, the election of such person is in the best interest of RealPage.

Our directors are elected under our bylaws by a plurality of the voting power of the shares present in person or represented by proxy at the annual meeting and entitled to vote on the election of directors, which means that the nominees who receive the greatest number of votes will be elected and withheld votes and broker

non-votes

will

Table of Contents

not be counted either for or against the election of a director nominee. However, under our Corporate Governance Guidelines, any nominee for director in an uncontested election (i.e., an election where the number of candidates for election does not exceed the number of directors to be elected) who receives a greater number of votes “withheld” from his or her election than votes “for” such election, shall promptly tender his or her resignation following the meeting at which they are elected or reelected as director. In such event, the Nominating and Governance Committee will promptly consider the tendered resignation and will recommend to the Board whether to accept the tendered resignation or to take some other action. In making this recommendation, the Nominating and Governance Committee will consider all factors deemed relevant by its members in deciding whether to recommend acceptance of a director’s resignation.

The Board will act on the Nominating and Governance Committee’s recommendation no later than 90 days following certification of the election results. In considering the Nominating and Governance Committee’s recommendation, the Board will consider all factors deemed relevant by its members in deciding whether to accept a director’s resignation.

Our Nominating and Governance Committee considers nominees recommended by stockholders provided such recommendations are made in accordance with our certificate of incorporation and bylaws. There are no differences in the manner in which our Nominating and Governance Committee evaluates nominees for director based on whether the nominee is recommended by a stockholder.

Director Independence

In accordance with the listing requirements of the NASDAQ Stock Market and our Corporate Governance Guidelines, a majority of our Board must be composed of independent directors. Our Board has determined that each of Mr. Berkeley, Mr. Gyenes, Mr. Ingraham, Ms. Jones, Mr. Kane, Mr. Leeds and Mr. Wright is independent under applicable NASDAQ listing standards and Rule

10A-3

of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the “Exchange Act.”

Our Board has three standing committees:

Item 11. Executive Compensation.

DIRECTOR COMPENSATION

Determining Compensation for

Non-Employee

Directors in 2020

Our Compensation Committee reviews and makes recommendations to our Board regarding the form and amount of compensation for

non-employee

directors. Directors who are employees of RealPage receive no compensation for service on our Board. Our director compensation program is designed to enable continued attraction and retention of highly qualified directors by ensuring that director compensation is in line with peer companies competing for director talent, and is designed to address the time, effort, expertise and accountability required of active board membership. Our Compensation Committee and our Board believe that annual compensation for

Table of Contents

non-employee

directors should consist of both a cash component, designed to compensate members for their service on our Board and its committees, and an equity component, designed to align the interests of directors and stockholders and, by vesting over time, to create an incentive for continued service on our Board.

Discussion of Director Compensation

In 2020, the annual compensation for our

non-employee

directors was composed of cash compensation in the form of an annual retainer and meeting and committee fees and equity compensation in the form of restricted stock awards. Each of these components is described below.

Independent Director Compensation Plan

Our independent director compensation plan provided for the following compensation to our independent directors during 2020:


Retainer		$12,500 per quarter
Lead Independent Director retainer		$5,000 per quarter
Audit Committee chair retainer		$6,250 per quarter
Audit Committee member (excluding chair) retainer		$3,000 per quarter
Compensation Committee chair retainer		$5,000 per quarter
Compensation Committee member (excluding chair) retainer		$2,250 per quarter
Other Board committee chair retainer		$3,000 per quarter
Other Board committee member (excluding chair) retainer		$1,500 per quarter
Annual restricted stock grant (each April 1)		$220,000 restricted stock value (1)

(1)

The restrictions related to each annual restricted stock grant lapse with respect to 25% of the restricted shares subject to the grant each quarter commencing on the first day of the calendar quarter immediately following the grant date for four consecutive quarters, subject to the continuous service of the director through each applicable date.

The term “independent directors” for purposes of our independent director compensation plan means each of our

non-employee

directors. The annual equity grants occur automatically on April 1 of each year, pursuant to the terms of the RealPage, Inc. 2010 Equity Incentive Plan (as amended and restated June 4, 2014), as further amended (the “2010 Equity Incentive Plan”).

On April 1, 2020, pursuant to our amended independent director compensation plan and the automatic annual restricted stock grant provisions of our 2010 Equity Incentive Plan, we issued 3,947 shares of our restricted common stock to each of Alfred R. Berkeley, III, Peter Gyenes, Scott S. Ingraham, Dana S. Jones, Charles F. Kane, Jeffrey T. Leeds, and Jason A. Wright.

Director Compensation Table for Year Ended December 31, 2020

The following table sets forth the annual director compensation paid or accrued by us to individuals who were directors during any part of 2020. The table excludes Stephen T. Winn, who is our Chief Executive Officer and who did not receive any compensation from us in his role as director in 2020.

DIRECTOR COMPENSATION TABLE FOR YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2020


Name	Fees Earned or Paid in Cash		Stock Awards (1)		Total
Alfred R. Berkley, III	$	59,000	$	220,000	$	279,000
Peter Gyenes		88,000		220,000		308,000
Scott S. Ingraham		68,000		220,000		288,000

Jason A. Wright		97,000		220,000		317,000

Equals 3,947 shares granted to each of the

non-employee

directors in 2020. The number of shares granted was determined based upon the average of the closing market price of RealPage common stock on each of the 30 trading days immediately preceding the grant date. The value of each award, as calculated pursuant to the aggregate grant date fair value computed in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718, was $192,456 for each of the directors. See Note 10 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report on Form

10-K

for the year ended December 31, 2020, for a discussion of assumptions made in determining the grant date fair value of our restricted stock awards.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

The following Compensation Discussion and Analysis, or “CD&A,” describes our executive compensation program for 2020. In particular this CD&A explains how the Compensation Committee of our Board made compensation decisions for the following named executive officers, or “NEOs,” for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020, who include our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, and each of the three most highly compensated executive officers other than our principal executive officer and principal financial officer. As disclosed in prior SEC filings, Mr. Ernst resigned his position as Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer in August 2020.


Name	Title	Officer Role
Stephen T. Winn	Chairman and Chief Executive Officer	Principal executive officer and principal operating officer; NEO

Brian D. Shelton	Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer	Principal financial officer; NEO

Ashley Glover	President	NEO

Michael A. Britti	Executive Vice President, Mergers and Acquisitions and Emerging Markets	NEO

David G. Monk	Executive Vice President, Chief Legal Officer and Secretary	NEO

Thomas C. Ernst, Jr.	Former Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer	Former principal financial officer; principal accounting officer; NEO

Table of Contents

This CD&A should be read together with the compensation tables and related disclosures that follow this discussion.

Compensation Philosophy and Objectives

Our philosophy is to provide a compensation opportunity to each of our NEOs that is commensurate with his or her position and experience, provide incentives for the NEO to meet and exceed challenging but reasonably attainable short-term and long-term corporate objectives as determined by our Board and align the NEOs’ incentives with the long-term interests of our stockholders. Additionally, our executive compensation program is intended to provide significant motivation to our NEOs to remain with the Company and continue to generate value for the Company. Our Compensation Committee has also reviewed with management the design and operation of our incentive compensation arrangements for all employees and concluded that our compensation plans, programs and policies, considered as a whole, including applicable risk-mitigation features, are appropriate and do not encourage inappropriate risk taking or risk taking that is reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on us.

Based on this philosophy, the primary objectives of our Board and Compensation Committee with respect to executive compensation are to:

•

attract, retain and motivate skilled and knowledgeable executive talent;

•

ensure that executive compensation is aligned with our corporate strategies and business objectives; and

•

align the incentives of the NEOs with the creation of value for our stockholders.

To achieve these objectives, our Compensation Committee periodically evaluates our executive compensation program with the goal of establishing compensation opportunities at levels our Compensation Committee believes to be competitive with those of our designated peer group companies. Additionally, we design our executive compensation program to tie a portion of each NEO’s overall cash compensation to key strategic, financial and operational goals set by our Board.

Compensation Decision-Making Process

Our Compensation Committee is responsible for overseeing and approving our executive compensation program. Our Compensation Committee currently consists of Alfred R. Berkeley, III, Peter Gyenes, Dana S. Jones, Charles F. Kane, and Jason A. Wright. Mr. Gyenes has been appointed to serve as the Chairman of our Compensation Committee. Our Board has determined that each member of our Compensation Committee is independent under the applicable requirements of NASDAQ and SEC rules and regulations, and is a

non-employee

director, as defined by Rule

16b-3

promulgated under the Exchange Act. For a discussion of the specific responsibilities of our Compensation Committee, see “Governance — Board and Committee Governance — Board Committees.”

Our Compensation Committee makes base salary, cash bonus and long-term incentive compensation recommendations for our Chief Executive Officer, based upon his performance and contributions to achieving our overall corporate objectives. Our Chief Executive Officer is not present during deliberations or voting by the Compensation Committee regarding his performance goals, performance evaluation or compensation level, and he abstains from voting on matters where our Board acts on our Compensation Committee’s recommendations regarding his compensation.

For purposes of determining compensation levels for our Chief Executive Officer, our Compensation Committee considers our overall achievement of corporate objectives, Company performance, the performance and individual contributions of our Chief Executive Officer, public company proxy data, survey group market data, advice from an independent executive compensation consultant, our Chief Executive Officer’s equity ownership and our Compensation Committee members’ own experience in compensation-related matters.

Table of Contents

With respect to our other NEOs, our Chief Executive Officer makes base salary, cash bonus and long-term incentive compensation recommendations to our Compensation Committee based on the NEO’s level of responsibility, performance and contribution to achieving our overall corporate objectives. Our Compensation Committee also considers Company performance, public company proxy data, survey group market data, information received from our Compensation Committee’s compensation consultant, each NEO’s equity ownership and our Compensation Committee members’ own experience in compensation-related matters. Our Compensation Committee considers the Chief Executive Officer’s input but retains complete authority to approve all compensation related decisions for our NEOs.

Our Compensation Committee also considers the results of the annual advisory

“say-on-pay”

vote by our stockholders. Our last

say-on-pay

vote was at our 2020 annual stockholders’ meeting, where approximately 93.84% of the votes cast were voted to approve the executive compensation program described in our 2020 proxy statement. Our Compensation Committee also continues to consider the alignment of NEO incentives with the long-term interests of our stockholders. In its compensation decisions in 2020, our Compensation Committee continued to place emphasis on performance-based components, including market-based restricted stock and performance-based cash compensation, as described herein. Our Compensation Committee structures performance-based cash and equity incentives to align directly with Company performance. Market-based long-term incentive awards do not vest if their share price targets are not achieved, and cash-based performance incentives are not earned if certain targets are not achieved. On an ongoing basis we also engage with our stockholders regarding various matters including executive compensation and corporate governance.

For purposes of evaluating compensation levels for 2020, our Compensation Committee also considered competitive market benchmarking data as described in “Executive Compensation — Compensation Discussion and Analysis — Competitive Positioning.”

Competitive Positioning

Competitive market data is an important component in determining the amount of each element of compensation for each of our NEOs. While actual compensation reflects our performance, our goal is for total cash compensation to be at or around the median target compensation for executives with similar positions in the 2020 Peer Group as described below, with somewhat higher targets for long-term incentive compensation, of which all or a significant portion of such compensation is directly linked to stock price performance. We incorporate flexibility into our compensation programs and into the assessment process to respond to changing business needs, and to take into consideration individual performance, including the relative complexity and strategic importance of specific roles.

Pursuant to its charter, our Compensation Committee has the authority to select and retain independent advisors and counsel to assist with carrying out its duties and responsibilities, and we have provided appropriate funding to our Compensation Committee to engage outside consultants from time to time, to conduct market reviews of our executive compensation program and philosophy in order to assess the competitiveness of our program.

Our Compensation Committee utilized Meridian Compensation Partners, LLC (“Meridian”), an executive compensation consulting firm, to provide advice regarding the structure of executive compensation for 2020 as well as competitive data on base salary, target total cash compensation and long-term incentives. In addition, our Compensation Committee reviews the total compensation package for each NEO from the perspective of target total direct compensation, which includes base salary, total annual cash incentive plan and the value and structure of the long-term incentive award.

Our Compensation Committee regularly reviews the services provided by its outside consultants and believes that Meridian is independent in providing executive compensation consulting services. Our Compensation Committee conducted a specific review of its relationship with Meridian in 2020 and determined that Meridian’s work for the committee did not raise any conflicts of interest, consistent with the guidance provided under the

Table of Contents

Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the “Dodd-Frank Act”), and by the SEC and NASDAQ rules. Meridian reports directly to our Compensation Committee Chair, takes direction from our Compensation Committee, and does not provide us with any services other than the services provided at the request of our Compensation Committee. Our Compensation Committee continues to monitor the independence of its compensation consultant on a periodic basis.

In the first quarter of 2020, our Compensation Committee engaged Meridian to conduct an independent market review of our executive compensation program. PM used public company proxy data and survey market data references to compare our total compensation practices for our executives to those in our market, including the data sources described below:

•

2020 Peer Group

. Publicly available data for a competitive peer group of 18 publicly traded companies similar to us with respect to industry, revenue size and business model, with median revenue equal to $1.17 billion for a trailing twelve month period prior to the review, and market capitalization size equal to $8.32 billion as of December 31, 2020 (the “2020 Peer Group”) and

•

Survey Group.

Technology industry companies similar to us in revenue size included in published surveys (Radford Global Technology Survey).

The 2020 Peer Group for this analysis was developed in consultation among our Compensation Committee, our management team and Meridian and consisted of the following organizations:


ACI Worldwide, Inc.		Jack Henry & Associates, Inc.
ANYSYS, Inc.		LogMeIn, Inc.
Aspen Technology, Inc.		Manhattan Associates, Inc.
Blackbaud Inc		Splunk Inc.
Black Knight, Inc.		TiVo Corporation
Bottomline Technologies Inc.		Tyler Technologies, Inc.
CoreLogic, Inc.		Verint Systems Inc.
CoStar Group Inc.		WEX, Inc.
Fair Isaac Corporation
Guidewire Software, Inc.

We periodically review our peer group to confirm that the roster of companies remains appropriate for external benchmarking in light of external merger and acquisition activity and our own business evolution. In the first quarter of 2020, we removed athenahealth, Inc., Ellie Mae, Inc., Medidata Solutions, Inc., SS&C Technologies Holding Inc., and The Ultimate Software Group, Inc. from our peer group, either because they are no longer publicly traded companies or due to increasing divergence with respect to operating size, and added ANYSYS, Inc., Black Knight, Inc., Jack Henry & Associates, Inc. and WEX Inc., reflecting our view that inclusion of these companies improves comparability between us with respect to the industry, operating size and valuation, as these companies are relevant comparators to us with respect to the industry, operating size and valuation.

Meridian benchmarked our executive compensation levels, including base salaries, performance-based cash bonuses and long-term equity incentive awards, to those of other executives in the 2020 Peer Group. The Meridian report indicated that pay levels on average for target cash compensation (base salary plus target bonus) for our NEO’s compared to the 2020 Peer Group in the aggregate approximated the 40th percentile. Compensation levels varied by executive role and among the peer group companies, and our total compensation pay levels including long-term incentives approximated the 50

percentile, with competitive position varying by role and type of compensation. Based upon the peer group data and the competitive analysis performed by Meridian, we believe our total compensation levels are appropriate within the context of the Company’s performance relative to our peer group, with long-term incentive compensation generally weighted more toward

Table of Contents

performance-based compensation than that of our peers, in particular with respect to long-term incentive compensation for our Chief Executive Officer, which is based solely upon market-based restricted stock awards which vest solely in the event of significant share price increase targets during the relevant performance period. The threshold, target, exceed and maximum performance levels for our performance-based long-term incentive compensation correspond to 25%, 40%, 60% and 80% increases, respectively, in our stock price prior to July 1, 2023, in order to achieve at each such performance level. The stock price targets must be achieved and sustained over a period of 20 consecutive trading days. Our Compensation Committee views these market-based restricted stock awards as “pay for performance” compensation having value to each executive only if the stock price increases to the various performance levels, and each such level requiring significant stock price increases to achieve the award. We believe this award structure aligns our executives’ interests with those of the Company and our stockholders.

2020 Elements of Executive Compensation

During 2020, the compensation of our NEOs included the following components:

•

Base Salaries

•

Performance-Based Cash Bonuses

•

Long-Term Equity Incentive Awards (Market-Based Restricted Stock for all NEOs, and Time-Based Restricted Stock for NEOs other than Mr. Winn)

•

Benefits and Other Compensation

Base Salaries

Base salaries are used to recognize the experience, skills, knowledge and responsibilities required of all of our NEOs. Base salaries for our NEOs typically have been negotiated as a part of the employment agreements with our NEOs at the outset of employment. From time to time, consistent with our executive compensation program objectives, base salaries for our NEOs, together with other components of compensation, are evaluated for adjustment by our Compensation Committee based on an assessment of the overall achievement of corporate objectives, each NEO’s sustained performance and compensation trends in our industry. Each NEO’s employment agreement requires that his or her base salary be reviewed no less frequently than annually; however, none of our NEOs has an employment agreement that provides for automatic or scheduled increases in base salary.

In addition to the factors described above, the base salary for our Chief Executive Officer takes into account Mr. Winn’s equity ownership in RealPage and his continuing contributions as the founder of RealPage.

In February 2020, our Compensation Committee conducted a review of our executive compensation program for purposes of evaluating compensation levels for our executives for 2020. Based on the considerations described above in “Executive Compensation — Compensation Discussion and Analysis — Compensation Decision-Making Process,” our Compensation Committee approved base salaries for Mr. Winn, Mr. Shelton, Ms. Glover, Mr. Britti, Mr. Monk and Mr. Ernst, each effective as of March 1, 2020, as outlined below.

Performance-Based Cash Bonuses

In 2020, our NEOs participated in our annual

non-equity

management incentive plans, which also apply to our other senior managers. Our annual management incentive plans are intended to provide cash compensation to our NEOs and senior managers for their contribution to the achievement of our strategic, operational and financial objectives. Our NEOs earn amounts under our management incentive plans based on our achievement of financial performance objectives, including

non-GAAP

total revenue and adjusted EBITDA targets and an assessment of the NEO’s individual performance. In February 2020, our Compensation Committee approved the goals related to 2020 under the Management Incentive Plan (the “2020 MIP”), which outlines overall corporate objectives for the fiscal year in addition to establishing guidelines for calculating management incentive plan bonuses in the event that performance objectives are partially achieved or exceeded. The financial performance targets for the 2020 MIP were based on our achievement of financial performance objectives by the Company, including

non-GAAP

total revenue and adjusted EBITDA targets, and an assessment of each NEO’s individual performance. In assessing an executive’s individual performance, we consider the executive’s level of job responsibilities, the prior performance of the executive, the executive’s experience and tenure, compensation of the other RealPage executive officers and the expected future contributions of the executive.

Participants in the 2020 MIP may receive an advance payout on a proportional basis based on progression towards the annual achievement of performance objectives for the 2020 MIP. These amounts may be paid on a quarterly basis during the performance period, and they may not be paid in every quarter based upon progression toward the annual achievement of objectives at such quarter end. The full-year annual cash bonuses paid to participants under our 2020 MIP are adjusted at year end based on actual achievement of both financial and individual performance objectives.

The 2020 MIP target bonus for Mr. Winn was 100% of base salary, for Mr. Shelton was 60% of base salary (effective upon his appointment as Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer), for Ms. Glover was 80% of base salary, for Mr. Britti was 60% of base salary, for Mr. Monk was 55% of base salary, and for Mr. Ernst was 70% of base salary. Each NEO had a maximum bonus potential of 200% of such NEO’s target bonus, for achieving financial and individual performance objectives in excess of the applicable target, and a minimum bonus potential of 0% of such NEO’s target bonus.

The performance metrics for our NEOs under the 2020 MIP consisted of the following:

•

Non-GAAP

total revenue;

•

Adjusted EBITDA; and

•

Individual performance ratings.

The minimum targets for

non-GAAP

total revenue and adjusted EBITDA for 2020 were increased significantly from the actual results achieved on such measures in 2019 to reflect the growth of our business. The table below summarizes the minimum, target and maximum performance level and the actual results for each performance measure for 2020.


Measure	Minimum		Target		Maximum		Achievement
	(in millions)
Non-GAAP Total Revenue	$	1,136.0	$	1,160.0	$	1,184.0	$	1,160.0
Adjusted EBITDA	$	294.0	$	300.0	$	306.0	$	322.5

Table of Contents

The performance metrics employed in the 2020 MIP are adjusted from metrics calculated in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) as follows:

Non-GAAP

total revenue:

This metric is calculated by adding acquisition-related deferred revenue to total revenue. We believe it is useful to include deferred revenue written down for GAAP purposes under purchase accounting rules in order to appropriately measure the underlying performance of our business operations in the period of activity and associated expense. Further, we believe this measure is useful to investors as a way to evaluate our ongoing performance.

Adjusted EBITDA

: We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income, plus (1) acquisition-related deferred revenue, (2) depreciation, asset impairment, and the loss on disposal of assets, (3) amortization of product technologies and intangible assets, (4) change in fair value of equity investment, (5) loss due to cyber incident, net of recoveries, (6) acquisition-related expense, (7) organizational realignment costs, (8) regulatory and legal matters, (9) stock-based expense, (10) interest expense, net, and (11) income tax expense (benefit). We believe that investors and financial analysts find this

non-GAAP

financial measure to be useful in analyzing our financial and operational performance, comparing this performance to our peers and competitors, and understanding our ability to generate income from ongoing business operations.

As a result of the calculations described above, our Compensation Committee determined that 2020 performance objectives were achieved and directed payments of the following bonuses to our NEOs pursuant to the 2020 MIP. In making such determinations, the Compensation Committee reviewed the Company’s achievement of the targets for

non-GAAP

total revenue and adjusted EBITDA, as well as the individual performance of each NEO in 2020. The variations described below are based upon the Compensation Committee’s assessment of each individual NEO’s performance during 2020. Because Mr. Ernst’s resignation was effective as of August 2020 and prior to payment of bonuses, he did not receive a 2020 MIP bonus payment.


Executive	Target Bonus			Actual Bonus		Actual Bonus as a Percent of Target Bonus
Stephen T. Winn		100	%	$	900,000		129	%
Brian D. Shelton		60	%	$	315,349		131	%
Ashley Glover		80	%	$	413,743		109	%
Michael A. Britti		60	%	$	339,970		133	%

Long-Term Equity Incentive Awards

Our equity award program is the primary vehicle for offering long-term incentives to our NEOs. In 2020, the equity awards to our NEOs consisted of restricted stock awards. We believe that equity-based compensation in the form of restricted stock awards provides our NEOs with a direct interest in our long-term performance, creates an ownership culture and aligns the interests of our NEOs and our stockholders.

In providing long-term incentives for our Chief Executive Officer, our Compensation Committee granted to Mr. Winn 100% performance-based equity incentives in the form of market-based restricted stock awards that become eligible to vest only if the trading price of our common stock rises to specified levels within a designated time period, and exceeds those levels for a

20-day

trading period. The stock price targets require significant stock price increases in order to vest, and thus are tied directly to our market performance. The market-based awards have eligibility and vesting terms based upon achievement of

pre-determined

performance objectives at threshold, target, exceed and maximum performance levels. Once the applicable performance level is achieved, the associated portion of the award becomes eligible to vest in quarterly installments over a

one-year

period. The

Table of Contents

threshold, target, exceed and maximum performance levels correspond to 25%, 40%, 60% and 80% increases, respectively, in our stock price prior to July 1, 2023 in order to achieve at each such performance level. The stock price targets must be achieved and sustained over a period of 20 consecutive trading days, which we believe is an appropriate time period because it is a significant and sustained period of time. One fourth of the market-based awards become eligible to vest for achievement at each of these performance targets. Once shares become eligible to vest under such award, they also contain an additional retentive time-based component, whereby such shares vest in quarterly increments over a

one-year

period thereafter (subject to acceleration of vesting on July 1, 2023 for any then-unvested shares that became eligible to vest prior to that date). Our Compensation Committee views these market-based restricted stock awards as directly linking achievement of our performance and stock price to our Chief Executive Officer’s long-term incentive compensation, and thus they are “pay for performance” compensation having value only if the stock price increases to the target.

In February 2020, our Compensation Committee granted to the NEOs other than Mr. Winn a combination of market-based and time-based restricted stock awards. The market-based restricted stock awards had the same performance criteria as those for Mr. Winn described above.

The time-based awards of restricted stock granted to our NEOs other than Mr. Winn in 2020 vest quarterly over a three-year period, subject to continued service to the Company. We believe that the three-year vesting period furthers our objective of executive retention as it provides an incentive to our executives to remain in our employ during the vesting period, and is consistent with competitive practice among our peers.

Our Compensation Committee typically grants equity awards to Mr. Winn and our other NEOs annually during the first quarter of the year, in connection with its annual review of our executive and employee compensation program, generally, and its assessment of achievement of prior-year performance targets for payments of cash bonuses under our management incentive plans as described under “Executive Compensation — Compensation Discussion and Analysis — 2020 Elements of Executive Compensation — Performance-Based Cash Bonuses.”

In determining the value of the equity grants for our Chief Executive Officer in 2020, our Compensation Committee considered comparative data for both the size of annual equity awards and total equity ownership of Chief Executive Officers employed by companies in our 2020 Peer Group, our overall achievement of corporate objectives, the Chief Executive Officer’s individual performance objectives, the achievement of certain strategic initiatives, the amount of equity previously awarded to the Chief Executive Officer, and the vesting of previous awards. In determining the value of equity grants to our NEOs other than our Chief Executive Officer in 2020, our Compensation Committee considered comparative data for both the size of annual equity awards and total equity ownership of executives employed by companies in the 2020 Peer Group, our overall achievement of corporate objectives, the applicable NEO’s achievement of individual performance objectives, the achievement of certain strategic initiatives, the amount of equity previously awarded to the NEO, the vesting of previous awards, and the recommendations of our Chief Executive Officer.

The amount and terms of the stock options and restricted stock we granted to our NEOs in 2020 are more fully described under “Executive Compensation — Compensation Tables — Grants of Plan-Based Awards.”

Benefits and Other Compensation

Our NEOs are eligible to participate in broad-based employee benefit plans, which are provided to all eligible U.S.-based employees. These plans include a group medical program, a group dental program, life insurance, disability insurance, flexible spending accounts and a 401(k) retirement savings plan. Additional benefit programs offered to our NEOs and all full-time U.S.-based employees include programs for

job-related

educational assistance, group term life insurance equivalent to 1.5 times an employee’s annual base salary up to a $600,000 maximum, and an employee assistance program. Our NEOs are also entitled to receive reimbursement of up to $3,500 per year for medical benefits to be used toward preventative medical expenses, including annual physical examinations.

Table of Contents

We believe these benefits are consistent with the benefits offered by companies with which we compete for employees, including executive officers, and are necessary to attract and retain qualified individuals for those roles.

Perquisites

We believe that cash and equity compensation are the two key components in attracting and retaining management talent and therefore do not provide any additional perquisites to our NEOs.

Other Executive Compensation Considerations

Trading Controls and Hedging, Short Sale and Pledging Policies under our Insider Trading Policy

All employees, including our NEOs, directors and agents of RealPage are required to receive permission from us and certify they are not in possession of any material

non-public

information prior to entering into any transactions in our securities, including, but not limited to, gifts, grants and transactions involving derivatives. Generally, trading is permitted only during announced trading periods. Employees who are subject to trading restrictions, including our NEOs, may enter into trading plans under Rule

10b5-1

of the Exchange Act. These trading plans may be entered into only during an open trading period and must be approved by us. Any employee, including any executive officer or director, bears full responsibility if he or she violates our policy by permitting shares to be bought or sold without preapproval or when trading is restricted. All of our employees, including our executive officers, directors and agents are prohibited by our Insider Trading Policy from pledging our securities or from entering into hedging and short sale transactions with respect to our securities.

Clawback Provisions

Equity awards granted to our NEOs under our 2010 and 2020 Equity Incentive Plans contain provisions under which the executives may be required to forfeit equity awards or profits from equity awards if they engage in certain conduct including, but not limited to, violations of our policies. Awards granted under such plans will be subject to recoupment in accordance with any clawback policy that we are required to adopt pursuant to the listing standards of any national securities exchange or association on which our securities are listed or as is otherwise required by the Dodd-Frank Act or other applicable law. In addition, the plan administrator may impose other clawback, recovery or recoupment provisions in an award agreement as the plan administrator determines necessary or appropriate, including a reacquisition right in respect of previously acquired shares of our common stock or other cash or property if it is determined that the participant violated

non-compete,

trade secret and confidentiality, or other provisions in the award agreement.

Executive Stock Ownership

Our Chief Executive Officer held approximately 9.7% of our outstanding shares of common stock as of April 15, 2021. All other directors and executive officers also held shares as of such date. See “Security Ownership.” In 2014, our Board adopted a Stock Ownership Guidelines Policy that suggests minimum stock ownership guidelines for our Chief Executive Officer. The minimum stock ownership target suggested by the guidelines is based on a multiple of five times the Chief Executive Officer’s annual base salary. This policy also suggests that our Chief Executive Officer hold the suggested minimum stock ownership target within three years of the adoption of such guidelines with respect to our current Chief Executive Officer or three years following appointment with respect to any successor. Our Chief Executive Officer’s stock ownership exceeds the suggested minimum stock ownership threshold.

Severance and Change in Control Benefits

Our employment agreements with our NEOs provide for payments and other benefits in the event of termination of employment in certain circumstances. For a description of these payments and other benefits, see “Executive Compensation — Potential Payments on Termination or Change in Control.”

We believe that these severance arrangements help us to attract and retain key management talent in an industry where there is significant competition for management talent. We believe that entering into these agreements helps the NEOs maintain continued focus and dedication to their assigned duties and helps maximize stockholder value. The terms of these agreements were determined after review by our Compensation Committee of our retention goals for each NEO, as well as analysis of market data, similar agreements established by our peer group and applicable law.

Tax and Accounting Considerations

Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code generally disallows public companies a tax deduction for federal income tax purposes of remuneration in excess of $1 million paid to the chief executive officer and certain other highly compensated executive officers in any taxable year. For tax years beginning before January 1, 2018, remuneration in excess of $1 million was deductible if it qualified as “performance-based compensation” within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code. The exemption from Section 162(m)’s deduction limit for performance-based compensation was repealed, effective for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2017, such that the compensation paid to our covered executive officers in excess of $1 million will not be deductible unless it qualifies for transition relief applicable to certain arrangements in place as of November 2, 2017, that have not been subsequently materially modified. While our Compensation Committee is mindful of the benefit of being able to fully deduct the compensation paid to our NEOs, our Compensation Committee believes that we should retain the flexibility to provide compensation to our NEOs that is not fully tax deductible when it believes that such payments are appropriate to attract and retain executive talent or meet other business objectives. Our Compensation Committee intends to continue to compensate our NEOs in a manner consistent with the best interests of our company and our stockholders even if any portion of such compensation is

non-deductible.

In addition to considering the tax consequences, the Compensation Committee considers the accounting consequences of its decisions, including the impact of expenses being recognized in connection with equity-based awards, in determining the size and form of different equity-based awards.

CEO PAY RATIO DISCLOSURE

As required by Section 953(b) of the Dodd-Frank Act, and Item 402(u) of Regulation

S-K,

we are providing the following information about the relationship of the annual total compensation of our “median employee” and that of our CEO, Mr. Stephen T. Winn. We believe the pay ratio information provided below is a reasonable estimate calculated in a manner consistent with the pay ratio disclosure rules.

For fiscal year 2020, our last completed fiscal year, we performed the following calculations in order to identify the median of the annual total compensation of all our employees, as well as to determine the annual total compensation of the “median employee.” The methodology and the material assumptions, adjustments, and estimates that we used were as follows:

•

We selected December 31, 2020 as the date upon which we identified the median employee. We compiled a list of all full-time, part-time, temporary and seasonal employees who were employed on that date, including employees working both within and outside of the United States.

•

We identified the “median employee” by taking all employees on this list, excluding the CEO, and ranking them based on target annual total compensation during the 2020 fiscal year as a consistently applied compensation measure.

•

The median of the annual target total compensation of all our employees, excluding our CEO, was $42,997.

•

After identifying the “median employee,” we identified and calculated the elements of such employee’s actual compensation for fiscal year 2020 in accordance with the requirements of Item 402(c)(2)(x) of Regulation

S-K,

resulting in annual total compensation of $44,062.

•

With respect to the annual total compensation for the CEO, we used the amount reported in the “Total” column of our 2020 Summary Compensation Table, which was $7,628,468.

•

The ratio of the annual total compensation of our CEO to the median employee was 173 to 1.
