NOTE•CEO compensation terms disclosed in amended filing
FiscalNote filed an amended 8-K to add CEO compensation terms for Key Compton, effective June 22, 2026.
The employment agreement was signed July 24, 2026 and sets an annual base salary of $425,000. Compton’s target annual bonus is 75% of salary.
Equity grant, change-in-control bonus and severance terms
The agreement includes an initial equity grant of 1,450,000 performance-based restricted shares, with vesting tied to stock price milestones over five or 10 years.
In a change in control, Compton could receive a transaction bonus of up to $1 million, reduced by any proceeds from performance-share vesting.
Severance would provide 50% of salary and bonus outside a change-in-control period, or 100% within it, along with accelerated equity vesting and COBRA coverage.
