In an effort to ensure continuity and stability and to incentivize and retain employees, on May 13, 2022, the Executive Compensation and Human Resources Committee of the Board of Trustees (the “Committee”) of Pennsylvania Real Estate Investment Trust (the “Trust”) approved special cash retention bonuses for certain employees, including a special cash retention bonus of $147,186 for Joseph J.

The retention bonus will be earned and payable on November 1, 2023, with payment contingent upon Mr. Aristone’s continuous employment by the Trust through the payment date. In connection with the retention bonus, on May 19, 2022, PREIT Services, LLC (“Services”) and Mr. Aristone entered into an amendment to the letter agreement dated May 8, 2013 regarding his participation in the Services Severance Pay Plan for Certain Officers (“Plan”) to provide that, if he receives a severance payment in the event of a change of control under the Plan, such payment would be reduced by the amount of the retention bonus to the extent previously paid.
