OF STOCKHOLDERS AND

PROXY STATEMENT

A Letter from our Chief Executive Officer

March 18, 2022

Dear Stockholders:

Realogy is in the midst of a pivotal transformation, and 2021 marked a milestone step forward in our journey. In 2021 we gained market share, delivered greater profitability, executed on our strategic priorities, significantly strengthened our balance sheet, and advanced our technology leadership - all of which contributed to the strongest financial results in the company’s history.

In 2022, with the first chapter of our transformation complete, we will move forward to redefine the way people buy and sell homes and harness our powerful momentum to propel growth and innovation as we move Realogy, and the real estate industry, to what’s next.

Record Operating Results

Realogy achieved record performance in 2021. We delivered $902 million in Operating EBITDA, $553 million in free cash flow, impressive homesale transaction volume growth of nearly 30%, and more than 100 basis points of market share gains year-over-year.

With these results, we believe the power of our business model is clear: our full-service franchise, brokerage, and title operations, our mortgage joint venture, and our technology leadership, position Realogy for success as we focus on driving profitable growth while leading the industry into the future.

Improved Capital Structure

We have made tremendous progress on our capital structure over the last several years. Realogy has reduced net debt by approximately $900 million since the end of 2019 and extended $1.9 billion of debt to 2029 and beyond. As a result of our strong performance and proactive moves to strengthen our balance sheet, we delivered an all-time low annual Net Debt Leverage Ratio of 2.4x at December 31, 2021. Having demonstrated considerable debt reduction progress, we are shifting our capital focus in 2022 to investing in and delivering even greater profitable growth. This could include opportunities to fuel the organic growth that has helped us gain share as well as new opportunities for selective M&A in our

core business, adjacent businesses, and technology that will further accelerate Realogy’s transformation.

People and Culture

Realogy is operating with an increasingly agile and innovative culture. We continue to be recognized as a home for top talent, earning designation as one of Forbes’ 2021 World’s Best Employers and 2021 World’s Top Female Friendly Companies, one of LinkedIn’s 2021 Top Companies in the U.S., and as a Great Place to Work® for the fourth consecutive year. For the 11th consecutive year, Realogy was once again recognized for our culture of integrity as one of the 2022 World’s Most Ethical Companies® by Ethisphere® Institute.

With a strong focus on diversity, equity, and inclusion in real estate, Realogy continues to pave a path for progress through our corporate environmental, social, and governance (ESG) initiatives. In 2021, we launched new programs to mentor and develop employees of color and to attract and retain diverse talent. We also continued to champion underrepresented communities in real estate, expanding both our Inclusive Ownership Program and What Moves Her initiatives to welcome more entrepreneurs to our industry and extending access to our Fair Housing training course to our industry partners.

This progress is anchored by the influential, diverse, and experienced bench of leaders who drive Realogy’s transformation forward. Last month, we welcomed Melissa McSherry as Realogy’s Chief Operating Officer. With deep product, technology, and digital experience, McSherry serves as a member of our executive leadership team and will drive product, technology, marketing, and customer experience for the enterprise as we accelerate delivery of a more seamless, digital transaction.

Moving to What’s Next

With impressive financial results, strategic execution, and meaningful progress on our capital allocation priorities in 2021, Realogy successfully completed the first chapter of our transformation. As we launch our next chapter, we are actively accelerating our focus

Table of C o n tents

on growth and innovation to further simplify and integrate the real estate transaction for consumers. Our portfolio of great brands empowers these strategic objectives, whether through the strength of our luxury brand leadership, the deep synergy in our owned brokerage operations with title and mortgage, or the generally consistent revenue generation of our national franchises over the past few years, all of which is accelerated by Realogy’s technology and innovation. Together, we are enabling affiliated agents and franchisees to deliver customers a better home buying and selling experience as we move real estate to what’s next.

On behalf of our Board of Directors, my senior leadership team, and our employees, thank you for your continued support of and investment in Realogy.

Sincerely,

Ryan M. Schneider

Chief Executive Officer and President

A Letter from our Independent Chairman of the Board

March 18, 2022

To Our Stockholders:

Under CEO Ryan Schneider’s leadership and with full support of the Board, Realogy continued its impressive transformation in 2021. Realogy successfully seized opportunities in a strong and evolving market to continue to bolster our leadership position, redefine the homesale transaction experience to capture more integrated transaction economics, innovate through technology and data, strengthen our capital structure, and invest in significant growth opportunities as we lead the industry into the future.

To complement the substantial progress of the management team, the Board continued to focus on several key areas, including Board Governance; Strategy and Capital Allocation; Corporate Social Responsibility; and Investor Outreach. I’d like to update you on each of these areas.

Board Governance

We take pride in our commitment to good governance with the support of the Nominating & Corporate Governance Committee. The Realogy Board comprises 11 directors, 10 of whom are independent for purposes of New York Stock Exchange listing standards. Consistent with best practices, we continue to be a leader in Board diversity: 27% of Board members are leaders of color and 36% are women - a distinction for which Realogy has been honored multiple times by the Women's Forum of New York. Realogy also prioritizes diversity on our executive leadership team, which includes 64% women and 27% leaders of color, and the Board also supports ongoing efforts to increase diversity across additional leadership levels and throughout the organization.

In March 2021, we welcomed Felicia Williams, Macy’s Fellow for CEO Action for Racial Equity and one of Savoy Magazine’s 2021 Most Influential Black Board Members, to our Board of Directors. A member of our Audit Committee and an Audit Committee Financial Expert, she brings deep financial expertise from her time at Macy’s, including as interim Chief Financial Officer, and Felicia has been an outstanding addition to the Board.

Strategy and Capital Allocation

The Board is actively engaging in the oversight of the Company’s strategy. In addition to regular strategic updates throughout the year, we held a two-day meeting focused on the Realogy Brokerage Group and Realogy Franchise Group businesses in June 2021, as well as separate sessions for Realogy Title Group and Cartus/Realogy Leads Group later in the year. We have diligently provided oversight of the development of the Company's strategic initiatives.

The Board continues to thoughtfully consider the best use of our capital. Through our strong operating performance and balance sheet management, the Company has made major strides in its debt profile. Since 2019, we have reduced debt, lengthened our maturity profile, lowered interest expense, significantly decreased secured debt, and achieved multiple credit rating upgrades.

Given our sustained financial performance and our improved capital structure, our capital allocation priority will now pivot to investing for growth. We also intend to consider returns of capital to stockholders via strategic share repurchases with any remaining available free cash flow. Of course, we remain committed to continuing to deliver efficient debt management.

Corporate Social Responsibility

We are committed to the continued advancement of our environmental, social, and governance practices. In 2021, Realogy expanded several innovative programs for diverse and underrepresented real estate professionals; extended access to our Fair Housing Training Course to others in the industry; and enriched internal programs designed to attract and mentor diverse talent. As a testament to our commitment, in 2021 the Company was honored by Forbes as one of the World’s Top Female-Friendly Companies. Realogy has been consistently recognized for excellence in ethics and integrity and, in 2022, was honored as a World’s Most Ethical Company for the 11th consecutive year.

Table of C o n tents

Investor Outreach

Direct engagement with our investors continues to be a top priority for the Board. For the fourth year in a row, our Board of Directors continued to seek out perspectives of our stockholders on key topics, including strategy, leadership, governance, and compensation, and we shared feedback from participating investors with the full Board. We are committed to further implementing corporate governance best practices and incorporating feedback from our investors.

The Board and I fully support Ryan and his team as they continue to execute on Realogy’s strategic priorities, and we are confident they will deliver long-term value to our shareholders.

On behalf of your Board of Directors, thank you for your continued investment in Realogy. We appreciate the opportunity to serve the Company on your behalf.

Sincerely,

Michael J. Williams

Any statements that refer to expectations or other characterizations of future events, circumstances or results are forward-looking statements.

The Company wishes to caution each participant to consider carefully the specific factors discussed with each forward-looking statement in this proxy statement and other factors contained in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, under the captions “Forward-Looking Statements”, “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” as such factors in some cases have affected, and in the future (together with other factors) could affect, the ability of the Company to implement its business strategy and may cause actual results to differ materially from those contemplated by the statements expressed herein.

PROXY STATEMENT SUMMARY

This summary highlights information contained elsewhere in this proxy statement. This summary does not contain all of the information that you should consider, and you should read the entire proxy statement before voting.

2021 INVESTOR OUTREACH PROGRAM

Our Board maintains a proactive and robust investor outreach program, offering meetings to a substantial majority of shares each year since 2018. We believe offering our stockholders an opportunity for regular communication with our Board is critical to our Board's ability to ensure thoughtful and informed consideration of evolving corporate governance and executive compensation best practices. Investor feedback received during this outreach has served as a catalyst for substantive changes to both our governance and executive compensation programs.

Board members have met with

eight of our top 10 stockholders since program commencement

Many of these investors have held productive conversations with the Board multiple times over the years

Under the Board's 2021 Investor Outreach Program, the Board reached out to stockholders representing approximately 75% of our outstanding shares and held calls with five investors holding an aggregate of approximately 20% of our outstanding shares (based on estimated holdings at the time of the outreach), including two first-time investor participants. Mr. Williams, Independent Chairman of the Board, attended all meetings and Mr. Niederauer, Chair of the Compensation Committee, joined him on several occasions. The full Board reviewed and discussed investor feedback received at these meetings.

Key topics discussed during these sessions include strategy, capital allocation, leadership, executive compensation and corporate governance as well as environmental, social and governance (ESG) topics. All participating investors expressed interest in continuing dialogue. Highlights from the meetings, and where applicable, Board responsive action to investor feedback, are listed below.

▪Strategy & Capital Allocation. Investors expressed support for the management team and our 2021 strategic execution, in particular with the progress made on our debt profile. In 2021, the Company paid down a meaningful amount of debt, including all outstanding Term Loan B and non-extended Term Loan A, lengthened its debt maturity profile, and changed its debt mix with the majority now unsecured. The Board and investors discussed additional capital allocation and strategic topics, such as our announced sale of our title underwriter (and continued minority interest in the resulting title underwriting joint venture), our recent moves to advance our position as a leader in high-end markets, and our RealSure joint venture.

▪Executive Compensation Program. Investors overall expressed support for our approach to executive compensation and generally agreed that performance metrics currently in use are appropriate for the Company and that pay appears to align with Company performance. No other feedback rose to the level of a theme. In response to the heightened interest expressed by some investors on diversity, equity and inclusion topics, we have expanded our discussion of named executive officer Relative Individual Performance to include those diversity, equity and inclusion accomplishments considered in connection with achievement under the 2021 annual cash incentive program.

▪ESG Reporting. Stockholders expressed support for the Board's strong corporate governance practices, with multiple investors commending the Company for strong diversity on the Board and Executive Committee. Several investors provided us with suggestions and considerations for future reporting on ESG-related matters, including with respect to diversity, equity and inclusion topics. Accordingly, we included data on the diversity of our employee base in our 2021 Corporate Social Responsibility Report.

Management Outreach
Realogy management—including our CEO, CFO and IR team—also maintains an active stockholder engagement program designed to reach current and prospective investors through earnings calls, investor conferences, individual and group meetings and other communication channels. In 2021, management attended meetings and conferences and participated in panel discussions and podcasts to reach current and potential investors. Topics covered include strategy, financial performance, competition and capital allocation. We consider investor feedback from these meetings, and may incorporate consistent key themes into our business. In 2021, informed in part by our investors, we continued to focus on strategic initiatives—including those designed to bring us closer to the consumer, like our ancillary title and mortgage services, leading technology and RealSure joint venture.

Strategic Planning and Business Execution

Our Board spends a substantial amount of time working with management to refine Realogy's mid- and long-term strategy as well as significant attention on our near-term objectives, such as efforts focused on enhancing agent and consumer value, market position, growth, debt reduction and improving operating effectiveness.

The Board receives updates on our strategy at each of the nine regular Board meetings and holds an additional annual two-day meeting focused exclusively on strategy. These strategic meetings focus on core aspects of our business, including initiatives to advance our business strategy, capital allocation matters and our competitive position in light of emerging and existing competitive trends.

In 2021, the Board oversaw the Company's execution against multiple key strategic initiatives:

▪Strategic Transactions designed to enable Realogy to remain laser-focused on its core businesses, including:

Environmental, Social and Governance Program

Board Oversight. Since 2020, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee has had oversight responsibility for the Company’s Environmental, Social and Governance, or ESG, initiatives, with the full Board receiving an annual report on the Company’s progress on ESG matters.

Since assuming its ESG oversight role, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee has focused on several important ESG-related topics such as affiliated agent and brokerage diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives and fair housing.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee also reviews Realogy's corporate responsibility report - which is released on an annual basis and can be accessed on our website at www.realogy.com under the Responsibility page.

Members of management with responsibilities and expertise in ESG-related topics, including human resources, diversity, equity and inclusion, corporate governance, and compliance, work with our Executive Committee and Board to report on our key ESG-related initiatives and metrics.

Governance. The Company and Board has historically focused on governance topics, including Board and management structure, best corporate governance practices, risk management, transparent and accurate information disclosure and strong auditing and compliance. Based on investor feedback during the Board-led Investor Outreach Programs, the Board believes that our stockholders view strong governance practices as the linchpin to an effective ESG program. Our key governance practices are outlined throughout this Governance of the Company section of the proxy statement.

Social. Social issues, including diversity, equity and inclusion—both at Realogy and in the real estate community—are a priority for the Company. Internally, we have eight long-standing Employee Resource Groups, or ERGs, each with its own executive

sponsor, that support and promote an inclusive culture at Realogy. In 2021, thousands of Realogy employees attended at least one ERG-hosted event.



						Over 70% of our Executive Committee identifies as female and/or a person of color

Talent-centric Board sessions have focused on diversity, equity and inclusion topics. Our Executive Committee members have had diversity, equity and inclusions performance goals included as part of their annual performance reviews since 2018. Starting in 2021, standardized diversity, equity and inclusion performance goals were expanded to our broader senior leadership team (nearly 200 employees) as part of their annual review process.

The executive team has set as a priority identifying development opportunities for ethnically and racially diverse employees. Programs designed to support these goals include:

▪Real Career Connections, a six-month mentorship program launched with 31 diverse employees in 2021.


The program provides support and coaching for high-potential employees of color
based on their development needs and career aspirations.

▪Stretch and Coach Program, under which leadership proactively identifies high-potential leaders from underrepresented racial and ethnic groups for bigger roles in the organization, supporting them with clear and actionable development plans. The program was expanded in 2021 to new levels within Realogy.



						More than 20 high potential leaders of color were promoted in 2021 to new, expanded roles under the Stretch and Coach Program

In addition, Realogy offers RISE—a 17-week enterprise development program for high potential leaders led by executives across the company. RISE focuses on leadership exposure across businesses, professional leadership development and peer-to-peer mentoring. This year 54 leaders graduated from the program.

We believe that attracting and retaining diverse affiliated agents and franchisees has been and will continue to be a crucial part of our success. Examples of current initiatives designed to support this goal include our:

▪Inclusive Ownership Program, expanded in 2021 to all brands in order to extend our reach and provide a path to franchise ownership for women, LGBTQ+, veterans and those from underrepresented ethnic and racial groups. The program includes financial investments, mentorship and executive development. More than 30 companies have joined the program since its launch in 2020.

▪What Moves Her campaign, also expanded to all brands in 2021 to continue to support the growth of women in real estate. Realogy hosted three marquee events in 2021 for its community of 1,775 members across the industry.


▪Diversity Equity Inclusion Network, comprised of externally-focused market-based membership networks across our Coldwell Banker, Corcoran and ERA brands that meet regularly
to engage and attract diverse agents through events, marketing and education.

▪Ascend Program, a 46-week executive leadership experience focused on leading self, leading others and leading organizations. This program was expanded from focusing on potential successors from our franchisee customer community to include Realogy leaders across the enterprise.

Realogy is also a proud sponsor and partner of several national real estate associations that promote the advancement of diverse homeownership through empowering diverse real estate professionals including the launch of a new partnership in 2021 with NAMMBA (National Association of Minority Mortgage Bankers of America).

Health and Safety. The protection of the health and safety of our employees is a Company priority. Throughout the COVID-19 crisis we have worked to comply with state and local regulators to ensure safe working conditions for our employees.

In 2020, we began planning the transformation of our corporate headquarters to an open-plan innovation hub, which is slated for completion in 2022.

We have streamlined our headquarters footprint to one floor that is designed to welcome approximately

200 transitional employees each day, instead of the approximately 1,000 employees designated to static spaces in the traditional office.

At December 31, 2021, approximately half of our employees worked remotely on a full-time basis, other employees, in particular consumer-facing employees at our company owned brokerages, were operating in an office-based environment, while other employees remained on a hybrid model.



						In 2021, we achieved a 91% employee engagement score and an 89% response rate, our highest scores to date

Wellness campaigns were launched to provide targeted programs to employees to enable physical, mental and emotional well-being. Realogy was a recipient of the 2021 Cigna Well-Being Award.

Environment. We do not manufacture products and we own de minimis real property. From 2017 to 2021, we decreased our leased-office footprint by approximately 19%.

Despite our limited environmental footprint, we seek to mitigate our environmental impact. For example, our headquarters building interior is LEED Gold certified and the building’s exterior is LEED Silver certified by the Green Building Certification Institute. As part of the redesign of our corporate headquarters currently underway, we made strategic decisions to conserve energy and recycle materials through our building plans and during construction.

In addition, we believe that other business moves have had or should have positive environmental benefits as well, such as shifts to cloud-based computing, a significant transition to a remote work environment, and increasing the availability of electronic documents and virtual interactions during the home purchase and sale process. We have also substantially augmented virtual and electronic processes for independent sales agents, affiliated brokerages and employees.

Oversight of Risk Management

The Board has an active role, as a whole and also at the committee level, in overseeing management of our risks. The Board focuses on the key risks facing us and our risk management strategy and seeks to ensure that risks—inherent and undertaken by us—are consistent with a level of risk that is appropriate for our Company and the achievement of our business objectives and strategies.

Realogy's enterprise risk management (“ERM”) program recognizes the framework issued in 2004 by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission, as well as the 2017 update issued by the same, but our Company has fashioned a process that integrates our specific goals and objectives.

A Risk Management Committee, chaired by our General Counsel and comprised of key members of management, meets regularly and plays a core role in the identification, monitoring, mitigation and management of the risks the Company faces.

Our Head of Internal Audit reports directly to the Audit Committee and our Chief Ethics & Compliance Officer has a dotted-line reporting relationship to the Audit Committee. Each of these officers regularly participate in executive sessions with the Audit Committee. Our ERM program is facilitated by our Vice President, ERM.

Through our dynamic risk assessment process, the Risk Management Committee and our Board consistently evaluate the risk environment and adjust the Company's risk profile and focus as needed to respond to industry and macroeconomic changes.

In 2021, an integrated risk assessment was performed by Internal Audit in collaboration with ERM and Ethics & Compliance, with the results driving our 2022 Internal Audit Plan and 2022 Ethics & Compliance Plan.

On a regular basis, management presents to the Board, or the applicable Board committees, a comprehensive review of the Company’s ERM processes, including risk assessment and risk management as well as updates on key risks that have been identified and assessed during the year and the strategies management has developed for managing them.

During 2021, these topics included the Company's potential exposure to risks related to:

▪changes to the traditional consumer experience of buying and selling a home, including due to

competitive factors and industry disruption,

▪continued shifts of commission income to affiliated independent sales agents and the impact on traditional brokerage earnings,

▪capital structure,

▪product and technology delivery,

▪cybersecurity and data privacy,

▪key ventures and strategic third-party relationships and earnings concentration,

▪simplification, modernization and cost reduction,

▪talent and succession, and

▪other macroeconomic factors and operational matters.

Throughout the year, at other meetings of the Board and, as applicable, Board committees, senior management presents updates on specific Company risks and trends, including emerging and existing competitive trends. In the course of reviewing the Company’s strategic initiatives throughout the year, and in one in-depth two-day meeting devoted solely to strategy, the Board considers whether the strategies are appropriately aligned to mitigate the risks identified in the ERM process as well as to pursue initiatives intended to advance the Company's strategy, enhance consumer and agent value, and keep the Company well-positioned for the future.

The Board and the applicable Board committees regularly review information regarding, and risks associated with, our finances, credit, liquidity, operations, legal and regulatory obligations, talent development, executive compensation, information technology (including cybersecurity and data privacy risks) and business strategy, including measures management has taken and will take to mitigate risks.

While each committee is responsible for evaluating certain risks and overseeing the management of risks, the entire Board is regularly informed about our risks through committee reports and management presentations.

The Audit Committee is charged with reviewing our processes with respect to risk assessment and risk management, including overseeing management of financial accounting and reporting and compliance risks, and steps undertaken by management to mitigate these risks to an acceptable level.

The Audit Committee shares oversight responsibility with the full Board for our information security and



			11

Table of C o n tents

technology risks, including cybersecurity. In 2021, the Audit Committee and/or Board were briefed on these matters on a quarterly basis. Commencing in 2022, the Technology & Data Committee began holding joint sessions with the Audit Committee to oversee the Company’s cybersecurity and data privacy compliance practices and policies.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee oversees the management of risks associated with the independence and composition of the Board, including that the Board has the appropriate skills and competencies necessary for effective oversight, as well as risks related to the reputation of the Company and potential conflicts of interest. In addition, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is responsible for monitoring the Company's ESG initiatives and programs.

The Compensation Committee is responsible for overseeing the management of risks relating to talent, succession and executive compensation.

As part of its oversight of the Company's executive compensation program, the Compensation Committee annually considers the impact of the Company's executive compensation program, and the incentives created by the compensation awards that it administers, on the Company's risk profile as well as risks related to succession planning and talent management.

In addition, the Company reviews all of its compensation policies and procedures, including the incentives that they create and factors that may reduce the likelihood of excessive risk taking, to determine whether they present a material risk to the Company.

To assist the Compensation Committee in its assessments of the Company's compensation risk profile, Internal Audit assessed the reasonableness of the criteria and assumptions that are used by the Company to identify the risks associated with the Company's material incentive-based compensation programs. Our Chief People Officer evaluated the results. Multiple factors were considered as part of Internal Audit's assessment, including incentive compensation criteria and payment limits, compensation mix, number of participants and risk mitigation factors. The results of the validation procedures were presented by Internal Audit to both management and the Compensation Committee. The Committee's independent compensation consultant also reviewed the results. The Compensation Committee considered the results in making its determinations regarding the Company's executive

compensation program and its compensation policies and procedures.

Based on these reviews and procedures, the Company has concluded that its compensation policies and procedures are not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company.

While the Board and the committees oversee our risk management, our CEO and other members of senior management (including the Risk Management Committee) are primarily responsible for day-to-day risk management analysis and mitigation and report to the full Board or the relevant committee regarding risk management. We believe this division of responsibility is the most effective approach for addressing our risk management.

Succession Planning

The Board is responsible for the development, implementation and periodic review of a succession plan for our Chief Executive Officer and the other members of our Executive Committee (listed on page 6).

The November 2021 meeting of the Board focused on talent and succession for the executive team. The meeting also included a review of broader business and corporate talent.

The Board has an emergency succession plan in the event of an unexpected disability or inability of our Chief Executive Officer to perform his duties.

The Board works, as appropriate, with the Compensation Committee and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee with respect to the Company's programs and plans in the areas of talent development, succession planning, and diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives.

Table of C o n tents

Code of Business Conduct and Ethics

Our Board has adopted a code of ethics (the "Code of Ethics") which applies to all officers and employees, including our principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principal accounting officer. The Code of Ethics is available on the Governance page of Realogy's website at www.realogy.com. The purpose of the Code of Ethics is:

▪to promote honest and ethical conduct, including the ethical handling of actual or apparent conflicts of interest between personal and professional relationships;

▪to promote full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in periodic reports required to be filed by the Company;

▪to protect Company information and assets; and

▪to promote compliance with all applicable laws, rules and regulations that apply to the Company and its officers.

The Code of Ethics also focuses on our responsibilities to each other to maintain a respectful, fair and productive work environment.

The Board has adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics for Directors with ethics guidelines specifically applicable to Directors. The Code of Business Conduct and Ethics for Directors is available on the Governance page of Realogy's website at www.realogy.com.

Copies of the Code of Ethics and the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics for Directors may also be obtained free of charge by writing to our Corporate Secretary. We will disclose on our website any amendment to or waiver from a provision of our Codes of Conduct that applies to any Director or executive officer, including our CEO, CFO or Chief Accounting Officer.

Corporate Governance Guidelines

Our Board has adopted Corporate Governance Guidelines that, along with the charters of the Board Committees, Director Independence Criteria, Code of Ethics for Employees and Code of Business Conduct and Ethics for Directors, provide the framework for our governance. The governance rules for companies listed on the NYSE and those contained in SEC rules and regulations are reflected in the guidelines. The Board reviews these principles and other aspects of governance periodically. The Corporate Governance Guidelines are available on the Governance page of our website at www.realogy.com.

Director Service on Other Public Company Boards

Our Board believes that service on other public company boards provides Directors with valuable governance and leadership experience that benefits the Company.

At the same time, our Board recognizes that it is critical that directors dedicate sufficient time and attention to their service on Realogy's Board.

Accordingly, under the Corporate Governance Guidelines, Directors must have the time and ability to make a constructive contribution to the Board as well as a clear commitment to fulfilling the fiduciary duties required of Directors and serving the interests of the Company’s stockholders. Unless explicitly approved by the Board:

▪Directors who also serve as CEO (or an equivalent position) may not serve on more than two other boards of public companies.

▪Other Directors may not serve on more than four other boards of public companies.

▪Directors on the Audit Committee may not serve on the audit committees of more than three public companies, including the Company.

All Directors are in compliance with this policy.

Prior to recommending a candidate as a nominee for director, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee reviews the other commitments of such candidate (including service and leadership positions on other boards) and considers whether such obligations may interfere with the candidate's Board duties.



						Our Board believes that each of our Directors has demonstrated the ability to devote sufficient time and attention to fulfill the responsibilities required of a Director of Realogy

Director Independence Criteria

NYSE listing standards and our Corporate Governance Guidelines require the Board to affirmatively determine annually whether each Director satisfies the criteria for independence and has no material relationship with Realogy Holdings other than as a Director. The Board adopted the Director Independence Criteria set out below for its evaluation of the materiality of Director relationships



			13

Table of C o n tents

with us. The Director Independence Criteria are available on the Governance page of our website at www.realogy.com.

A Director who satisfies all of the following criteria shall be presumed to be independent under our Director Independence Criteria:

▪No relationships that would disqualify independence under NYSE listing standards;

▪No personal services contract in the last three years with Realogy Holdings or any of its executive officers; and

▪No control position with a non-profit organization that has received more than the greater of (i) 2% of the consolidated gross revenues of such organization during any single fiscal year or (ii) $1,000,000, either directly or indirectly from Realogy Holdings within the last three years.

Determination of Director Independence

During the Board's annual review of the independence of the Directors, the Board considered whether there are any relationships between each Director (or any member of his or her immediate family) and us and our subsidiaries and affiliates. The Board also considered whether there were any transactions or relationships between Directors (or any member of their immediate family or any entity of which a Director or an immediate family member is an executive officer, general partner or significant equity holder) and us. The purpose of this review was to determine whether any such relationships or transactions existed that were inconsistent with a determination that the Director is independent.

As a result of this review, the Board affirmatively determined that, under NYSE listing standards and our Director Independence Criteria:

▪All of the members of our Board are Independent Directors, other than our CEO; and

▪All members of the Audit Committee, Compensation Committee, Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and Technology and Data Committee are Independent Directors.

The Board also determined that none of the Independent Directors had or has any material relationship with us other than as a Director.

In making these determinations, the Board took into consideration the following transactions:

▪several of our Independent Directors and/or their immediate family members, either before they joined the Board or during their tenure as Directors, utilized the brokerage services of our company owned brokerages and/or our franchisees in the purchase or sale of residential real estate and/or the Company's title and settlement services in the ordinary course and on similar terms to those offered to unrelated third parties in similar transactions; and

▪prior to Mr. Koehler joining our Board, the Company and Equifax Inc., Mr. Koehler’s employer, were party to agreements (which have been renewed over time) for certain tools, credit reports and information with respect to unemployment claims pursuant to which the Company made payments of approximately $110,000 in 2021.

Board Leadership Structure

Michael J. Williams became our Independent Chairman on December 31, 2017. Mr. Williams previously served as the Board's Lead Independent Director (from late 2013) and has been a Director since 2012.

The Board has no fixed policy on the separation of the CEO and Chairman roles and our Bylaws allow for these roles to be either combined or separated. This flexibility allows our Board to choose a different Board leadership structure if and when it believes it is in the best interests of the Company based on current circumstances. In making this determination, the Board considers a number of factors, including the position and direction of the Company, the specific needs of our business, and the constitution of the Board and management team.

The Board currently believes that the separation of the CEO and Chairman roles is the most effective leadership structure for the Company at this time, as it allows Mr. Schneider to focus on the day-to-day management of the business and on executing our strategic priorities, while allowing Mr. Williams to focus on leading the Board, providing its advice and counsel to Mr. Schneider, and facilitating the Board’s independent oversight of management.

The Board will continue to regularly review its leadership structure and exercise its discretion in recommending an appropriate and effective framework on a case-by-case basis, taking into consideration the needs of the Board and the Company at such time.



			14

Table of C o n tents

In his capacity as Independent Chairman of the Board, Mr. Williams:

▪presides at all meetings of the Board and stockholders;

▪acts as an adviser to Mr. Schneider on strategic aspects of the CEO role with regular consultations on major developments and decisions germane to the Board's oversight responsibilities;

▪serves as a liaison between the CEO and the other members of the Board, including eliciting feedback from the Committee Chairs and Directors throughout the year and providing feedback to the CEO;

▪coordinates with Directors between meetings and encourages and facilitates active participation of all Directors;

▪sets Board meeting schedules and agendas in consultation with the CEO and corporate secretary;

▪reviews Board materials, including drafts of key presentations and consultations with members of senior management;

▪has the authority to call meetings of the Independent Directors or of the entire Board; and

▪monitors and coordinates with management on corporate governance issues and developments.

Annual Board and Committee Evaluations

The Board recognizes that a robust and constructive performance evaluation process is an essential component of Board effectiveness.

Confidential annual Board evaluations are overseen by our Chairman of the Board, while the Chairs of our standing committees oversee the evaluation of their respective committee.

Tailored questions are designed to solicit Board and committee feedback on critical Board topics, including, composition, culture, focus, strategy, risk, talent, process, and access.

Results of the evaluations are discussed by the Board and each committee in executive session and have led to substantive changes in practice.

Recent examples include

▪evolving the composition of the Board;

▪allocating cyber and technology oversight matters between applicable committees and the Board;

▪dedicating additional time to the review of products in development at Technology & Data Committee meetings; and

▪enhancing Board focus on talent management, including as related to diversity, equity and inclusion topics.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee periodically reviews the form and process for Board and committee self-evaluations.

The Chairman of the Board also consults with each Director on a quarterly basis during one-on-one telephonic meetings at which Directors are able to further share their views on matters related to the Board and the Company. Key themes raised at these meetings or during Board and Committee sessions are also summarized by the Chairman of the Board and conveyed on a regular basis to the other Directors and management. When appropriate, the Chairman of the Board incorporates real-time evaluation topics and feedback into regular sessions of the Board.

Executive Sessions of Independent Directors

The Independent Directors met without any members of management present in executive session at more than half of the Board meetings held in 2021. During 2021, Michael Williams, the Independent Chairman of the Board chaired these sessions. Committees of the Board also regularly hold executive sessions without management present. These sessions are led by the Committee Chairs.

Communications with the Board and Directors

Stockholders and other parties interested in communicating directly with the Board, an individual Independent Director or the Independent Directors as a group may do so by writing our Corporate Secretary at realogy.board@realogy.com or Realogy Holdings Corp., 175 Park Avenue, Madison, New Jersey 07940. The Corporate Secretary will forward the correspondence only to the intended recipients. However, prior to forwarding any correspondence, the Corporate Secretary will review it and, in her discretion, not forward correspondence deemed to be of a commercial nature or otherwise not appropriate for review by the Directors.

Compensation of Independent Directors

Independent Directors receive compensation for Board service designed to compensate them for their Board responsibilities and align their interests with the long-term interests of stockholders.

The Board has established guidelines with respect to the compensation of our Directors. These guidelines designate a portion of the compensation of our Directors to be paid in restricted stock unit awards.

The Board is subject to stock ownership guidelines for Directors as discussed under "Governance of the Company—Independent Director Stock Ownership Guidelines" on page 20 pursuant to which the Independent Directors must retain a meaningful portion of their equity compensation.

The Compensation Committee undertakes an annual review of the competitiveness of the compensation paid to the Company's Directors and receives advice from its independent compensation consultant on

market comparables. The Compensation Committee recommends changes, if any, to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, which in turn makes recommendations to the Board.

Prior to 2021, no increase in Board compensation had been approved since 2016, except with respect to the establishment of an independent Chairman of the Board and ad hoc committee fees. In 2020, in light of the disruption and uncertainty created by the evolving COVID-19 pandemic, the Board waived the cash portion of the Board fee for the third quarter of 2020 and agreed to a special, one-time reduction to the equity portion of the Board's 2020 retainer.

In May 2021, based upon an analysis performed by its compensation consultant, the Compensation Committee recommended the following changes to Director compensation:

▪$35,000 increase in the Annual Director Retainer to $250,000, with over half of the increase in equity and the remainder in cash;

▪$5,000 increase in the retainers for the Compensation Committee Chair to $20,000 and Compensation Committee members to $15,000; and

▪$2,500 increase in the retainers for Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee members and Technology and Data Committee members, each to $10,000.

In addition, the Compensation Committee recommended that the Independent Chairman of the Board no longer be entitled to receive fees for service as a chair or member of a standing committee, but that his or her annual cash retainer be increased by $50,000 to $200,000 (with such increase being approximately equal to the foregone standing committee fees at the time of the change).

Last, the Compensation Committee recommended to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee that members of the Ad Hoc Transactions Committee receive a one-time equity award of fully vested common stock for their committee service in an amount equal to $25,000 (in each case, rounded up to the nearest share).

The Nominating and Compensation Committee in turn recommended these changes to the Board, which approved them, effective May 4, 2021.

One-Time Stock Grant for Members of the Ad Hoc Transactions Committee	$	25,000

_______________

(1)Members of the Board who are also officers or employees of Realogy Holdings or its subsidiaries (i.e., our CEO) do not receive compensation for serving as Directors. A Chair of a committee receives a Chair fee as well as a fee as a member of that committee.

(2)Amounts shown reflect grant date fair market value.

(3)The Independent Chairman of the Board is not entitled to receive the Annual Director Retainers or Committee Chair or Member Retainers.

(4)In May 2021, members of the Ad Hoc Transactions Committee received a one-time equity award of fully vested common stock for their committee service.

Cash fees are paid in advance on a quarterly basis and the equity portion of the Annual Retainer and Annual Independent Chairman Retainer is granted immediately following the annual meeting of stockholders. The restricted stock unit awards vest one year following the date of grant. Directors may elect to receive fully vested shares of common stock in lieu of cash fees.

In the case of a new Director appointed in between annual meetings of stockholders, the RSU award is pro-rated for the period between the date of grant (on or about the date they are appointed to the Board) and the first anniversary of the immediately preceding annual meeting of stockholders.

A Director may defer cash fees and eligible equity awards, including restricted stock units, under the Realogy Director Deferred Compensation Plan. Cash fees deferred will be in the form of deferred stock units settled in shares of our common stock. The number of deferred stock units issuable in connection with a deferral of cash fees is calculated by dividing

the amount of the deferred cash fees by the fair market of our common stock on the date of grant.

Deferred stock units are eligible to accrue dividend equivalent units, the value of which are factored into the grant date fair value. Generally, a Director's deferral will be paid as elected by the Director, or, if earlier, on the first anniversary following a Director's separation from service for elections made prior to December 11, 2014 or on the last business day of the quarter following a Director's separation of service for elections made on or after December 11, 2014. A Director may elect to receive deferred payments in a single lump-sum payment or payments over time.

A Director who serves on our Board does not receive any additional compensation for service on the Board of Directors of our subsidiaries.

We reimburse Independent Directors for all travel and other expenses incurred in connection with attending Board and Committee meetings and for continuing director education programs they attend.

_______________

(1)Ms. Williams joined the Board in March 2021.

(2)The amounts reported in the "Stock Awards" column include: for each director, the grant date fair value of the RSU award granted in May 2021, representing the equity portion of the Director's retainer ($160,012 for each director, other than Mr. Williams, and $250,002 for Mr. Williams); for Ms. Hailey and Messrs. Williams and Niederauer, the grant date fair value of the stock award granted in May 2021, representing the one-time grant to members of the Ad Hoc Transactions Committee ($25,009); and for Ms. Williams, the grant date fair value of the restricted stock unit award granted upon her joining the Board in March 2021 ($23,335).

The grant date fair value of equity awards granted in 2021 are computed in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718. The assumptions we used in determining the grant date fair value are described in Note 13, "Stock-Based Compensation" to our consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

(3)As of December 31, 2021, each independent director held 9,175 unvested RSUs with the exception of Mr. Williams who held 14,335 unvested RSUs. Ms. Hailey held 5,164 vested stock options and Mr. Williams held 9,573 vested stock options.

Independent Director Stock Ownership Guidelines

In order to further strengthen alignment with stockholders, each Independent Director is required to beneficially own an amount of our stock equal to the greater of:

▪$500,000; or

▪at least five times the cash portion of the annual Director retainer (i.e., $1,000,000 for our Independent Chairman of the Board or $450,000 for our other Independent Directors).

Stock options are not counted toward the stock ownership requirement. Shares of Realogy common stock, deferred stock units, and unvested restricted stock units count as stock ownership. Directors have five years after joining the Board to achieve compliance with the guideline levels. If the guideline

levels are not achieved by this compliance deadline, 100% of net shares received from the exercise of stock options or the vesting of any full value award must be retained until compliance is achieved.

All of our Directors met the ownership guidelines based on the trailing 20-day trading average stock price as of December 31, 2021, except for Ms. Williams, our newest Board member, who is within the five-year compliance period.



						None of our current Directors has ever sold a share of Realogy stock

Ownership of Our Common Stock

The following table sets forth information regarding the beneficial ownership of our common stock as of March 9, 2022 by (i) each person known to beneficially own more than 5% of our common stock, (ii) each of our named executive officers, (iii) each member of the Board and (iv) all of our executive officers and members of the Board as a group. At March 9, 2022, there were 118,118,160 shares of common stock outstanding.

The amounts and percentages of common stock beneficially owned are reported on the basis of SEC regulations governing the determination of beneficial ownership of securities. Under the rules of the SEC, a person is deemed to be a "beneficial owner" of a security if that person has or shares "voting power," which includes the power to vote or to direct the voting of such security, or "investment power," which includes the power to dispose of or to direct the disposition of such security. A person is also deemed to be a beneficial owner of any securities of which

that person has a right to acquire beneficial ownership within 60 days. Under these rules, more than one person may be deemed a beneficial owner of the same securities and a person may be deemed a beneficial owner of securities as to which he or she has no economic interest.

Except as indicated by footnote, the persons named in the table below have sole voting and investment power with respect to all shares of common stock shown as beneficially owned by them.

See above for a description of the Stock Ownership Guidelines applicable to our independent Directors, which shows achievement against guideline levels and includes deferred stock units held by our Directors (which are not reflected in the table below).

Related Person Transactions

The Audit Committee has adopted a written policy on the review, approval, or ratification of transactions that could potentially be required to be reported under the SEC rules for disclosure of transactions in which related persons have a direct or indirect material interest. In general, related persons are directors, executive officers, stockholders beneficially owning 5% or more of our outstanding common stock, and immediate family members of any of the foregoing.

Under the policy, transactions with related persons are reviewed in advance by the Chief Compliance Officer, General Counsel and Chief Financial Officer of the Company, or in certain circumstances, as soon as possible thereafter. If it is determined by such officers that the transaction is a related person transaction and the amount involved exceeds $120,000, the transaction will be submitted for review to the Audit Committee or, under certain circumstances, to the Audit Committee Chair. The Audit Committee (or the Chair) may approve or ratify only those transactions that are in, or not inconsistent with, the best interest of the Company and its stockholders. The Chair will update the full Audit Committee at the next regularly scheduled meeting for any interim approvals or ratifications granted. No Director may participate in any discussion or approval of a transaction for which he or she or a member of his or her immediate family is a related person.

Under the policy, certain related person transactions are pre-approved, including:

▪the ordinary course utilization of Company services by a related person;

▪transactions subject to a competitive bidding process and other transactions of a nature that would not require disclosure under SEC rules; and

▪transactions involving an entity in which any related person is employed, provided that such related person is not employed as an executive officer (or its equivalent) of the entity and the transaction does not involve payments to or from such entity that exceed the greater of $750,000 or 1% of the entity's annual gross revenues.

Without any requirement to do so, our Directors and executive officers and their immediate family members from time to time have, and in the future may, utilize the services offered by the Company in the ordinary course and on similar terms to those offered to unrelated third parties in similar transactions, including but not limited to engaging our company owned brokerages (or those of our

franchisees) and/or the Company's title and settlement services in the purchase or sale of real estate. These types of transactions have been pre-approved by the Audit Committee. While we do not generally consider ordinary course transactions between related persons and our franchisees to require approval under our policy, we request that our Directors and executive officers inform us whenever they engage in a transaction with any entity connected with the Company as part of our corporate governance controls.

Approved Related Person Transactions. During 2021, the Audit Committee reviewed and approved the transactions described under the heading Determination of Director Independence, although no Director was determined to have a direct or indirect material interest in any such transaction.

PROPOSAL 1: ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

Board of Directors

At the date of this proxy statement, the Board consists of eleven members, ten of whom are Independent Directors under NYSE listing standards and our corporate governance documents.

In February 2022, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of our Board, which we refer to in this "Election of Directors" section as the "Governance Committee," recommended, and the Board nominated, Fiona P. Dias, Matthew J. Espe, Bryson R. Koehler, V. Ann Hailey, Duncan L. Niederauer, Ryan M. Schneider, Enrique Silva, Sherry M. Smith, Christopher S. Terrill, Felicia Williams and Michael J. Williams for election at the Annual Meeting. The nominees, all of whom are current Directors, are standing for election as Directors to hold office for a one-year term expiring in 2023 or until his or her successor has been duly elected and qualified. Each nominee has consented to his or her nomination for election to the Board.

The information under "Nominees for Election to the Board" includes each Director's professional experience, educational background and qualifications. The information also sets forth the public company directorships each Director currently holds or has held during the past five years. The age of each Director nominee is as of March 9, 2022.

If a Director nominee should become unavailable to serve as a Director, an event that we do not anticipate occurring, the persons named as proxies intend to vote the shares for the person whom the Board may designate to replace that nominee. In lieu of naming a substitute, the Board may reduce the number of Directors on our Board.

Process for Nominating Directors

The Governance Committee is responsible for identifying, recruiting, evaluating and recommending to the Board nominees for election at the Annual Meeting.

Identification and Evaluation Process. The process for identifying and evaluating nominees to the Board is initiated by Governance Committee and Board discussions concerning the skills and competencies of the current membership of the Board. While the Board does not have any mandatory policies with

respect to rotation of committee assignments or chairs, its process for identifying and evaluating nominees does take into account the periodic rotations of committee chairs and committee members. Its process also seeks to address both short-term and longer-term needs of the Board.

Once the need for a new Director has been determined, the Board begins a process to identify a candidate who meets the criteria for selection as a nominee and has the specific qualities or skills being sought based on input from members of the Board, management, stockholders or others and, if the Governance Committee deems appropriate, a third-party search or board advisory firm.

To help the Governance Committee determine whether Director nominees qualify to serve on our Board and would contribute to the Board's current and future needs, candidates undergo a series of interviews with, and evaluations by, the CEO, the Chair of the Governance Committee and generally one or more other members of the Governance Committee. In addition, candidates complete questionnaires regarding their backgrounds, qualifications, skills and potential conflicts of interest. Candidates are evaluated by the Governance Committee by reviewing the candidates' biographical information and qualifications and checking the candidates' references.

Using the input from the interviews and other information it has obtained, the Governance Committee evaluates whether the prospective candidate is qualified to serve as a Director and whether the Governance Committee should recommend to the Board that the Board nominate the prospective candidate for election by the stockholders or to fill a vacancy on the Board.

Stockholder Nominations and Bylaw Procedures. The Governance Committee will consider written recommendations from stockholders for nominees for Director. Recommendations for Director candidates should be submitted to the Governance Committee, c/o the Corporate Secretary, and include at least the following: name of the stockholder and evidence of such person's ownership of our common stock, number of shares owned and the length of time of ownership, name of the candidate, the candidate's resume or a listing of his or her qualifications to be a



			25

Table of C o n tents

Director and the candidate's consent to be named as a Director if selected by the Governance Committee and nominated by the Board.

Assuming that appropriate biographical and background material has been provided on a timely basis, the Governance Committee will use a substantially similar evaluation process as described herein for candidates recommended by stockholders as it follows for candidates identified by Directors or management to evaluate nominees for Director recommended by stockholders.

Stockholders also have the right under our Bylaws to directly nominate director candidates. Qualifying stockholders may also use the proxy access provisions of our Bylaws to nominate director candidates. See "Stockholder Proposals and Nomination of Directors" for additional information.

General Qualifications. The Board believes all Directors should possess certain personal characteristics, including personal and professional integrity, substantial professional achievement, sound business judgment and vision, to serve on our Board. We believe these characteristics are necessary to establish a competent, ethical and well-functioning Board that best represents the interests of our business, stockholders, employees, business partners and consumers.

Under our Corporate Governance Guidelines (the "Guidelines"), when evaluating the suitability of individuals for nomination, the Governance Committee seeks individuals from diverse professional and personal backgrounds who combine a broad spectrum of experience and expertise relevant to Realogy. The Governance Committee takes into account many factors, including but not limited to: the individual's general understanding of the varied disciplines relevant to the success of a mid-cap publicly traded company in today's business environment; understanding of the real estate market and/or other relevant business models (e.g., franchising and businesses that have a focus on branding); professional expertise and educational background; experience as a director of a publicly-traded company; and other factors described below.

The Governance Committee also considers an individual's ability to devote sufficient time and effort to fulfill his or her Realogy responsibilities, taking into account the individual's other commitments. In addition, the Governance Committee considers whether an individual meets various independence requirements, including whether his or her service on boards and committees of other organizations is consistent with our conflicts of interest policy, and

when searching for a candidate to serve on the Audit Committee, financial expertise.

When determining whether to recommend a Director for re-election, the Governance Committee also considers the Director's attendance at Board and committee meetings and participation in, and contributions to, Board and committee activities. In addition, under the Guidelines, the Governance Committee generally will not recommend, and the Board will not approve, the nomination for re-election of an Independent Director who has reached the age of 75, unless the Governance Committee, on an annual basis, waives or continues to waive, the mandatory age limitation. An employee Director must offer his or her resignation from the Board upon ceasing to be a Realogy officer though the Governance Committee has the discretion as to whether or not it should accept the resignation.

Diversity. The Guidelines provide that the Governance Committee will consider factors that promote diversity of views and experience when evaluating the suitability of individuals for nomination. The Guidelines also provide that the Governance Committee will include, and have any search firm that it engages include, women and minority candidates in the initial pool from which the Governance Committee selects director candidates. The Governance Committee recognizes diversity's benefit to the Board and Realogy, as varying viewpoints contribute to a more informed and effective decision-making process.

As shown below, our current Directors have varied experiences, backgrounds and personal characteristics, which ensure that the Board will have diverse viewpoints, enabling it to effectively represent our business, stockholders, employees, business partners and consumers:

▪five Directors (including our CEO) are current or former chief executive officers or presidents of mid- or large-cap publicly traded companies;

▪three Directors are former chief financial or chief accounting officers of publicly traded companies;

▪seven Directors have technology and/or digital marketing experience;

▪four Directors have significant industry or franchise knowledge;

▪four Directors are women;

▪one Director is Hispanic;

▪one Director is Asian;

▪one Director is African American; and

▪the age range for the Directors is 46 to 71.

Table of C o n tents

Individual Skills and Experience. When evaluating potential Director nominees, the Governance Committee considers each individual's professional expertise and educational background in addition to the general qualifications. The Governance Committee evaluates each individual in the context of the Board as a whole.

Stockholder Voting for Election of Directors

Pursuant to the Bylaws, Directors are each elected by a majority of the votes cast with respect to that nominee in uncontested elections. This means that the number of votes cast "for" each Director nominee must exceed the number of votes cast "against" that nominee. Any abstentions or broker non-votes are not counted as votes cast "for" or "against" that nominee's election and will have no effect on the election of Directors.

Under the Board's Director Resignation Policy, each incumbent Director who fails to receive the required vote for election or re-election in an uncontested election is required to submit a contingent, irrevocable resignation that the Board may accept. The Governance Committee is required to make a recommendation to the Board as to the action to be taken with respect to the tendered resignation. In making this recommendation, the Governance Committee will consider all factors deemed relevant by its members.

The Board is required to act on the resignation within 90 days following the date of the stockholders' meeting at which the election of the Directors occurred. In considering the Governance Committee's recommendation, the Board will consider the information, factors and alternatives considered by the Governance Committee and such additional information, factors and alternatives the Board believes to be relevant. We will promptly publicly disclose the Board's decision and process in a report filed with the SEC. Any Director who tenders his or her resignation under this process will not participate in the Governance Committee recommendation or Board consideration regarding whether or not to accept the tendered resignation. However, such Director shall remain active and engaged in all other committee and Board activities, deliberations and decisions during this committee and Board process.

Strategic Alignment with Compensation

Our Compensation Committee, which we refer to in this CD&A as the "Committee," ties a significant portion of target direct compensation to performance against the annual and long-term metrics that the Committee believes are most directly linked to the successful execution of our strategy and shareholder value, including Operating EBITDA, Free Cash Flow and the generation of stockholder returns relative to a general market index. The remaining portion of target direct compensation is paid in fixed base salary.

In 2021, CEO target direct compensation was:

▪90% at-risk, including short- and long-term incentives

▪71% in equity-based compensation, of which 60% was granted in the form of performance share units tied to either Cumulative Free Cash Flow (the "CFCF PSUs") or Relative Total Stockholder Return (the "RTSR PSUs")

▪61% tied to performance-based metrics, including the CFCF and RTSR PSUs as well as annual cash incentive opportunity under the Executive Incentive Plan (the "EIP")

In addition, to drive continued execution against strategic imperatives, including the attraction and retention of independent sales agents and franchisees and the delivery of technology-driven products and services designed to enhance their productivity, market share growth was adopted by the Committee in 2020 for use in a one-time Market Share Performance and Retention Awards granted to our named executive officers in the second half of 2020. The value of the one-time Market Share

Performance and Retention Awards are not included in the calculation of CEO target direct compensation due to the nature of the award, which is not part of the regular target direct compensation program. See page 52 for additional details.

Realogy's outstanding financial performance in 2021, driven by management's long-term strategy and a continuation of strong market demand and beneficial consumer trends, resulted in payouts at maximum under our annual cash incentive plan.

Consistent with our generation of $1.649 billion in Cumulative Free Cash Flow over the 2019 to 2021 performance period, the performance share units tied to Cumulative Free Cash Flow paid out at 200%. No payout was made under the three-year performance share units tied to Relative Total Stockholder Return.

The aggregate realized value for our NEOs was 139% of target for the 2019-2021 performance share unit cycle (based on our stock price on December 31, 2021).

The Compensation Committee believes these results demonstrate that our pay-for-performance executive compensation program worked as designed with payouts at maximum under our annual incentive plan based on our outstanding Operating EBITDA performance in the year, above target payouts for the first time under the Cumulative Free Cash Flow metric due to our significant cash flow generation over the 2019 to 2021 period, and no payout under our three-year relative total stockholder return metric.


CEO Target Direct Compensation (2021)

The graphic above is based on value assigned by the Committee to 2021 long-term incentive (equity) awards, rather than the grant date fair value of such awards.

In 2021, target direct compensation for our NEOs (other than our CEO) was on average 70% at-risk and 50% tied to performance metrics. Overall NEO compensation was comprised, on average, of 30% base salary, 30% annual incentive (cash), and 40% long-term incentive (equity)—with half of the equity granted in the form of performance share units and half granted in the form of time-vested restricted stock units.

Target direct compensation does not include the value of the one-time Market Share Performance and Retention Awards granted in 2020 (see page 52) or the 2021 special cash bonus payment made to Ms. Wasser (see page 45), neither of which are part of the regular target direct compensation program.

Elements of 2021 Target Direct Compensation

The following table describes each element of 2021 target direct compensation and describes why the Committee has incorporated that element into Realogy’s executive compensation program.


	What Is It?	Why Do We Pay It?
Base Salary (see page 40)	Annual cash salary	To attract and retain top-tier talent by providing market-competitive fixed pay reflective of the executive’s position, experience, scope of responsibility and contribution to our performance
Annual Incentive (Cash) (see page 41)	Annual performance-based incentive plan, called the Executive Incentive Plan, or EIP, that is funded by results under a Plan Operating EBITDA metric, with payouts determined by each executive's "Relative Individual Performance"	To drive short-term financial performance, specifically by measuring results under our primary operating metric and the strength of each executive's individual performance (taking into consideration achievement of key strategic and operational objectives, execution of key initiatives and other factors)
Long-Term Incentive (Equity) (see page 46)	Performance share units, or PSUs, are earned based on the achievement of the following pre-established metrics over rolling 3-year cycles: ▪Cumulative Free Cash Flow ▪Relative Total Stockholder Return	To align compensation with stockholders, PSUs constitute at least half of the long-term incentive award in 2021 and are designed to incentivize long-term value creation through stock and critical operating performance objectives over rolling 3-year periods Time-based restricted stock unit awards serve a retention objective and further align executive interests with those of our stockholders, as the value of the grants increase or decrease with our stock price
	Restricted Stock Units vesting over 3-year period

Investor Outreach & Our Say-on-Pay Vote

At our 2021 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, our say-on-pay proposal received support from 90.0% of the votes cast, which we believe indicates support for the description of our executive compensation program as disclosed in the 2021 proxy statement as well as overall support for our continuing pay-for-performance alignment. Under the Board's 2021 Investor Outreach Program, the Board reached out to stockholders representing approximately 75% of our outstanding shares and held in person meetings or calls with holders of approximately 20% of our outstanding shares (based on estimated holdings at the time of the outreach). These meetings were attended by Michael Williams, Independent Chairman of the Board, and Duncan Niederauer,

Chair of the Compensation Committee joined him at several of the meetings (see page 1).

Investors overall expressed support for our approach to executive compensation and generally agreed that performance metrics currently in use are appropriate for the Company and that pay appears to align with Company performance. No other feedback rose to the level of a theme. In response to the heightened interest expressed by some investors on diversity, equity and inclusion topics, we have expanded our discussion of named executive officer Relative Individual Performance to include those diversity, equity and inclusion achievements considered in connection with achievement under the 2021 annual cash incentive program.

Compensation Philosophy

Our compensation philosophy has the following key objectives:

▪The attraction, motivation and retention of high-performing executives;

▪A pay-for-performance focus that ties a significant portion of pay to business performance, both short- and long-term;

▪Alignment of compensation with stockholder interests in both short-term performance and long-term value creation;

▪Reinforcement of ethical behavior and practices;

▪Discouragement of excessive risk; and

▪Flexibility to respond to the necessities of a cyclical industry.

With regard to pay levels, our philosophy is that:

▪Target direct compensation should be set at the outset of the compensation period by taking into account compensation paid to similarly-situated executives of comparable proficiency, with flexibility to vary individual executive compensation to specific factors such as tenure, experience, proficiency in role, criticality to the organization and other business needs; and

▪All actual payments on incentive components should be linked to Company operating, financial, and stock performance during the performance period.

In setting compensation, the Committee reviews a detailed and comprehensive analysis of peer group information and general industry survey data designed to educate the Committee on current compensation ranges by executive position together with plan design and component weighting information.

Peer group and survey data are used as a reference point in making compensation decisions, but the Committee does not target a particular competitive level or utilize peer data in a formulaic manner. For additional information on our peer group, see "Our Peer Group" below in this CD&A.

As discussed in more detail below, individual pay levels vary based on individual experience, scope of responsibilities, past performance and expectations with respect to future performance and future leadership potential.

Components of Executive Compensation

Each named executive officer has a “target direct compensation” opportunity comprised in 2021 of both fixed (base salary) and “at-risk” (short- and long- term incentives) compensation.

The Committee considers a wide variety of factors when reviewing each element of executive compensation, including those set forth on the next page.

A significant portion of “at-risk” compensation is tied to pre-established objective performance metrics, including an annual cash incentive opportunity and performance share units granted as part of each NEO’s long-term incentive opportunity.

When designing executive compensation, the Committee also takes into account that significant decreases in realizable value for our NEOs could damage Company performance if our pay program does not offer sufficient incentive and retention value to our key executive talent.

In exceptional circumstances, the Committee may offer special incentive, retention or other bonus awards if such action is determined by the Committee to be necessary to achieve its incentive and retention goals. For additional information on the one-time Market Share Performance and Retention Awards granted by the Committee in the second half of 2020 and the special cash bonus award made to Ms. Wasser for her contributions to our 2021 performance, see pages 52 and 45, respectively.

In addition, the Company offers its NEOs severance protection and limited perquisites.

2021 Base Salary

In February 2021, the Committee approved base salaries for 2021 (each effective March 6, 2021) as set forth in the following table. The Committee determined not to increase the salary for our CEO, Ms. Helmkamp or Ms. Wasser.

In approving an increase to base salary for Ms. Simonelli, the Committee considered her outstanding performance in strengthening Realogy’s financial profile, including improvements to the Company's capital structure, the Company's expectations with respect to her contributions in 2021 and her positioning relative to the peer group.

In approving an increase to base salary for Mr. Gorman, the Committee considered his exemplary leadership of the Company's largest company owned brand, his significant contributions to the Company's strategic execution and his positioning relative to the peer group.

The base salaries for each NEO in 2021 is reflected in the table below.

2021 Annual Incentive (Cash)

Summary. All of our NEOs participate in an annual cash incentive program called the Executive Incentive Plan, or EIP. The EIP is entirely funded based on achievement against a Plan Operating EBITDA target.

The Committee selected Plan Operating EBITDA as the financial performance metric under the EIP due to its direct link to the success of Realogy’s business strategy—as this metric is materially aligned and consistent with Operating EBITDA, our key metric for evaluating overall performance of our operating business.

Certain adjustments to Operating EBITDA were permitted under the EIP, including pension expense or the cost of certain litigation that differed from the 2021 Budget, the impact of foreign exchange movements, the impact of natural disasters (net of insurance reimbursements), and other items, determined at the discretion of the Committee, including extraordinary corporate transactions.

Key Facts: Annual Incentive (Cash)

Award Determined by

Plan Operating EBITDA and Relative Individual Contribution

Funding Mechanism

Achievement against Plan Operating EBITDA target

The total amount available for payouts under the EIP is limited by the funding provided by Plan Operating EBITDA results. EIP funding can range from 25% for threshold performance to maximum funding at 200%, with payouts determined by linear interpolation when achievement falls between performance levels.

While the EIP is funded by results against the objective Plan Operating EBITDA metric, each NEO’s award is subject to decrease or increase based on his or her Relative Individual Performance as determined in the discretion of the Committee.

2021 Target Annual Incentive. The Committee approved the following target opportunities (expressed as a percentage of earned salary) to the NEOs: (i) for the CEO, 200% target award opportunity (given his overall greater accountability for the performance of the Company), and (ii) for the other NEOs, 100% target award opportunity.

In determining to increase his target award opportunity from 150% to 200% of salary under the 2021 EIP, the Committee took into account competitive target annual incentive opportunities for leaders in Mr. Schneider's position, including among our peer group, and considered his significant contributions to the Company’s performance as well as his anticipated future contributions, noting the crucial role Mr. Schneider is expected to play in the continued execution of the Company’s long-term strategy and the potential business disruption likely to be caused by a loss of his services. The Committee believes these targets were consistent with market practice for each NEO position at the time the 2021 annual incentive program was established in February 2021.

2021 Target Funding Pool. The potential funding pool for the EIP was determined by aggregating the target opportunity of each of the CEO and the other members of the Executive Committee.

The 2021 EIP was funded by multiplying this aggregate target opportunity by the actual level of performance achieved (expressed as a percentage) against the Plan Operating EBITDA target. The aggregate value of awards earned under the EIP could not exceed this funding pool. Accordingly, any adjustments to awards based on consideration of Relative Individual Performance are restricted by this overall funding pool limit.

Rigor in Setting the Plan Operating EBITDA Target. The target Plan Operating EBITDA goal was set by the Committee at a level equal to the budget approved by the Board for 2021, or the 2021 Budget.

The budgeting process undertaken by management and overseen by the Board is rigorous and set at a level that requires a reasonable degree of stretch performance and operational excellence to achieve. To reinforce overall company growth, funding of the 2021 EIP was based solely on Plan Operating EBITDA for the consolidated Company.

While the 2021 Plan Operating EBITDA target was lower than actual Operating EBITDA reported by us for 2020, the Committee believed the 2021 EIP target was rigorous in large part due to the factors listed below. When setting the 2021 EIP target, the Committee also considered that the 2021 Budget:

▪forecasted mid-single digit homesale transaction volume growth; and

▪included targeted objectives for gains from organic growth opportunities and benefits from new cost saving initiatives.

However, the foregoing benefits were expected to be more than offset and be negatively impacted by:

▪the absence in 2021 of the approximately $150 million in temporary cost-savings implemented by the Company in the second and third quarters of 2020 as a result of the COVID-19 crisis

◦the 2021 target was higher than 2020 Operating EBITDA when adjusted to exclude these temporary cost-savings

▪continued pressure on the share of gross commission income paid by our company owned brokerages;

▪a decline in earnings from our mortgage origination joint venture, driven in part by potential declines in refinancing activity given the strength of this business in 2020, the cyclical nature of the industry, and potential increases in interest rates; and

▪forecasted expenses for growth investments in the business, including strategic initiatives focused on the retention and recruitment of independent sales agents in a highly competitive environment.

Balancing these factors, the Committee believed that the target set for the EIP was in fact rigorous, notwithstanding it being lower than the actual 2020 EIP achievement.

Had the Committee used 2020 Operating EBITDA ($726 million) as the 2021 EIP target, we would have also achieved a payout at maximum, using the same scaling for threshold and maximum achievement.

Historical EIP payouts based on performance against the Plan Operating EBITDA target set by the Committee, as shown in the table below, further demonstrate the level of rigor required to achieve payout under the plans.

Relative Individual Performance Calculation.

The Committee, in collaboration with the full Board, establishes individual performance goals for our CEO at the beginning of the fiscal year based on our annual financial and strategic plan.

Likewise, each member of the Executive Committee works with our CEO at the outset of the year to establish quantitative and qualitative goals designed to drive our corporate strategy and results.

Following the conclusion of the year, our CEO provided an in-depth review of his performance to the Board. After consultation with the Board, the Committee assessed the CEO's Relative Individual Performance, taking into account the following factors:

▪Achievement of key strategic and operational objectives;

▪Execution of key initiatives;

▪Execution of key talent management initiatives, including those related to diversity, equity and inclusion; and

▪Other factors identified as appropriate.

The CEO also presented the Committee with his assessment of the Relative Individual Performance of each member of the Executive Committee taking into consideration each executive's pre-established goals and the factors listed above.

The Committee reviewed and discussed each of the other NEO's Relative Individual Performance, taking into account the CEO's recommendations.

When determining each NEO's Relative Individual Performance, the Committee did not assign a specific weighting to any of the individual goals or factors, but considered progress and results against the objectives in the aggregate.

In determining to rank each NEO's Relative Individual Performance as meeting "target", the Committee considered, among other things, the following factors:

Special Cash Bonus (Ms. Wasser)

The payment of bonus awards is not part of the regular executive compensation program of the Company and such payments are only granted by the Committee in recognition of extraordinary performance achievements. Based on the factors described below, the Committee determined to grant a special cash bonus payment to Ms. Wasser in recognition of her meaningful contributions to the Company's strong performance in 2021.

In granting a bonus payment in the amount of $300,000 to Ms. Wasser, the Committee took into account her active role in substantially all critical aspects of our business, including, during 2021:

▪execution against strategic initiatives and transactions such as our RealSure and Real Estate Auctions joint ventures and the planned sale of our title insurance underwriter (and formation of a title insurance underwriting joint

venture) as well as the expansion of other key offerings like the RealVitalize® program;

▪advancement of Realogy's strategic policy objectives and efforts to build collaborative and effective relationships with industry organizations;

▪enhancements to the Company’s enterprise data governance program; and

▪her continued leadership during the ongoing COVID-19 crisis with respect to employee, agent and franchisee health and safety

In making this award, the Committee also considered the criticality of Ms. Wasser’s role at Realogy.

Long-Term Incentive (Equity)

Long-term incentives, or LTI, consists of equity awards granted under the Realogy 2021 Long-Term Incentive Plan.


2021 Long-Term Incentive Awards by Grant Type and Weighting
	Performance-Based Awards (Performance Share Units)		Time-Based Awards
	RTSR†	CFCF	RSUs
CEO	30%	30%	40%
Other NEOs	20%	30%	50%

† The weighting above is based on the valuation approach used by the Committee to determine the appropriate allocation among the components of target direct compensation, rather than the grant date fair value of the awards.

Summary

In 2021, the Committee again allocated 60% of our CEO's long-term incentive compensation value to performance share units, or PSUs. The PSUs are tied to Company achievement against pre-established metrics over the three-year period ending December 31, 2023. Half of each other NEO's 2021 long-term incentive award was awarded in the form of PSUs.

The performance metrics used in the PSU program are Relative Total Stockholder Return, or RTSR, and Cumulative Free Cash Flow, or CFCF, each of which is explained under the heading "Performance Share Units" in this CD&A.

The remaining 2021 LTI award was comprised of time-based awards granted in the form of restricted stock units, or RSUs.

In setting the mix of equity, the Committee weighed its preference for performance-based awards against the retention benefits provided by time-based equity awards. The Committee noted the meaningful three-year ratable vesting period for RSU awards.

The Committee considered the following factors when determining each NEO’s 2021 LTI grant:

▪the need to provide sufficient long-term incentives;

▪the need to satisfy retention objectives;

▪a competitive pay analysis prepared by the Committee’s independent compensation consultant;

▪the executive’s expertise, experience and criticality to Realogy; and

▪individual performance reviews conducted by the Committee with input from our CEO in the case of his direct reports and, in the case of our CEO, with input from the Board.

The Committee kept the LTI awards flat, year-over-year, for Mr. Schneider, determining that the LTI opportunities appropriately recognized his role in the oversight of our entire operations. The Committee believes that Mr. Schneider’s 2021 LTI award is appropriate given that:

▪the majority of his LTI award is tied to the achievement of objective performance goals over a three-year performance cycle;

▪his broad scope of responsibilities and the critical role he plays in setting and executing the Company’s business strategy;

▪his equity awards are subject to both the Company's Clawback Policy as well as his continued compliance with the restrictive covenants in his employment agreement; and

▪his awards vest over a period of three years and will be forfeited if he is terminated for cause or voluntarily leaves his position.



			46

Table of C o n tents

The Committee weighs PSU awards more heavily for Mr. Schneider than other NEOs, with 60% of his 2021 LTI target value tied to the RTSR or CFCF metric (as opposed to 50% weight for our other NEOs). Equal target compensation value was assigned to each of these PSU metrics for the 2021-2023 performance period for our CEO in order to provide further incentive to him to drive the creation of stockholder value through both stock performance and the Company’s generation of Free Cash Flow.

The Committee increased the target value of the LTI awards granted to Ms. Simonelli by approximately

13% to reflect her outstanding performance in strengthening Realogy’s financial profile, including improvements to the Company's capital structure, the Company's expectations with respect to her contributions in 2021 and her positioning relative to the peer group.

The following table shows the 2021 LTI awards granted to our NEOs as well as the aggregate LTI target direct compensation value assigned by the Committee and aggregate grant date fair market value of those awards.

(1)Shares underlying performance-based PSU awards and grant date fair market value are presented at target.

(2)The number of PSUs granted under the RTSR metric was determined by dividing the value of the award approved by the Committee by our closing stock price on the date of grant ($14.10), while the grant date fair market value of $8.51 per RTSR PSU was determined, in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718, by a Monte Carlo simulation performed by an independent third-party.

Performance Share Units

Since 2014, Performance Share Unit, or PSU, awards have comprised at least half of the LTI award.

In 2021, the Committee allocated the following amounts of LTI target value to PSU awards:

▪60% of the CEO's LTI award; and

▪50% of other NEOs' LTI award.

The number of units that may be earned under each PSU award is a multiple of the target award, with such multiple based upon the achievement of the applicable performance metric over the three-year performance period.

The PSU awards granted in 2021 measure performance from January 1, 2021 to December 31, 2023. Likewise, the PSU awards that were earned for the three-year period ending December 31, 2021 were granted in 2019. Payouts are determined by linear interpolation when achievement falls between performance levels.

All of our currently outstanding PSU awards are based on two metrics—relative total stockholder return, or RTSR, and Cumulative Free Cash Flow, or CFCF.

PSUs are denominated in stock units, so the award value tracks Realogy stock price over the three-year performance period.

Earned PSUs are distributed in actual shares of our common stock during the first quarter of the year after the end of the three-year cycle. Amounts earned are based upon the Committee's determination of results and are forfeitable if the Company does not meet pre-established threshold targets for CFCF and RTSR.

Relative Total Stockholder Return


RTSR PSU—Design Features
Metric Description			Total stockholder return relative to a hypothetical investment in the S&P MidCap 400 index
Target Direct Compensation Weighting			In 2021, PSU awards tied to RTSR were: - 50% of CEO PSU award - 40% of other NEO PSU awards
Opportunity (% of Target Shares Vested)			Threshold = 40% Target = 100% Maximum = 175%

Summary. The Relative Total Stockholder Return metric was initially adopted by the Committee as a PSU metric in 2015 at the recommendation of investors. Certain investors have continued to express support for this metric during the Board's Investor Outreach Program.

The RTSR metric focuses on Realogy stockholder returns relative to an index selected by the Committee—with outperformance against the index resulting in payouts above target and underperformance resulting in no payout, or payouts below target.

The Committee believes the RTSR metric aligns long-term executive compensation with the interests of our stockholders and is working as designed with:

▪NO payouts earned under any cycle completed to date, including the cycle ended December 31, 2021


Historical achievement RTSR PSU Cycles
Cycle	Shares Earned	Realized Value
2019 to 2021	0%	0%
2018 to 2020	0%	0%
2017 to 2019	0%	0%
2016 to 2018	0%	0%
2015 to 2017	0%	0%

▪Forecasted payouts under outstanding cycles reflect our improved relative stock price performance during the applicable periods


Forecasted achievement* RTSR PSU Cycles Outstanding at 12.31.21
2020 to 2022			Above target
2021 to 2023			Below target

* As of 12.31.21; actual results will be determined at the conclusion of the applicable three-year cycle

Mechanics of RTSR PSU Awards Granted in 2021. Consistent with prior RTSR PSU awards, payouts under the RTSR PSU award granted for the three-year performance period of January 1, 2021 to December 31, 2023 will be determined by measuring the difference at the end of the performance period between the:

▪total stockholder return realized through an investment in Realogy stock, and

▪total stockholder return realized through an investment in the applicable index.

Both calculations include dividends paid during the performance period, if any.

▪the value of the shares of Realogy common stock to be issued in payment of the RTSR PSU award may not exceed 300% of the award's grant date fair market value.

The Committee may exercise negative, but not positive, discretion in determining the performance level achieved under this metric.

Benchmark Index. Target payouts for the 2021 RTSR PSUs will be earned for performance equal to the S&P MidCap 400 index. For every +/- 1% change in RTSR, the payout as a percentage of the target



			48

Table of C o n tents

award will increase/decrease by 2%. Maximum payouts will be made at 175% of target if Realogy's TSR exceeds the S&P MidCap 400 index TSR by 37.5 percentage points, assuming Realogy's TSR is positive. Payouts will be made at threshold (40% of target) if Realogy's TSR trails the S&P MidCap 400 index by 30 percentage points.

In deciding to utilize an RTSR metric, the Committee recognized that many of our competitors are privately-held. In the absence of an index of publicly-traded companies engaged in a similar business to Realogy, the Committee will regularly evaluate the trading correlation between the S&P MidCap 400 index and our common stock and may determine to use another index or a custom peer group with respect to future grants, if any, tied to RTSR.

Cumulative Free Cash Flow

Summary. The Committee first used CFCF as a PSU metric in 2015. Target performance is set in-line with the Company’s strategic plan for the corresponding three-year period covering the award.

We do not disclose actual CFCF targets prior to the close of the related financial period for competitive reasons, but the 2021-2023 target exceeds the target for the 2020-2022 period and was aligned with the Company's 2021-2023 strategic plan when adopted. A threshold payout of 50% of the target award will be earned if 70% of target CFCF for the 2021-2023 period is achieved and a maximum payout of 200% of the target award will be earned if 130% of target CFCF is achieved.


CFCF PSU—Design Features
Metric Description			Cumulative Free Cash Flow generated by Realogy over a three-year period, as adjusted for items pre-established by the Committee
Target Direct Compensation Weighting			In 2021, PSU awards tied to CFCF were: - 50% of CEO PSU award - 60% of other NEO PSU awards
Opportunity (% of Target Shares Vested)			Target = 100% Threshold = 50% Maximum = 200%

The Committee has the authority to exercise negative or positive discretion to adjust the payout earned under this metric, including to take into account

extraordinary corporate transactions or developments per the metric definition (see more detail below). The Committee has continued its use of the CFCF metric in the LTI because it believes the metric:

▪reflects the manner in which our stockholders measure Realogy’s operating performance;

▪aligns with our strategic imperatives, including investing in growth initiatives and other capital allocation priorities; and

▪is working as designed, with:

◦No or below target payouts earned under the first four completed PSU cycles, and —reflecting the Company's outstanding performance since the second half of 2020, maximum payout earned for the cycle ended on December 31, 2021


Historical achievement CFCF PSU Cycles
Cycle	Shares Earned	Realized Value*
2019 to 2021	200%	261%

2017 to 2019	0%	0%
2016 to 2018	55%	26%
2015 to 2017	97%	56%

* Realized value is based on aggregate shares earned by NEOs times our stock price on the last day of the performance cycle vs. the Committee-approved target value of the awards

◦Forecasted payouts under outstanding cycles reflect the improvement in our financial performance during the applicable periods


Forecasted achievement* CFCF PSU Cycles Outstanding at 12.31.21
2020 to 2022			Above target
2021 to 2023			Above target

* As of 12.31.21; actual results will be determined at the conclusion of the applicable three-year cycle

Mechanics of CFCF PSU Awards Granted in 2021. At the time of grant, the Committee pre-established the CFCF target and permitted enumerated adjustments for determining CFCF results for the three-year period that include increases or decreases that differ from



			49

Table of C o n tents

the cash amounts assumed in the forecast underlying the target. Neither the CFCF target goal or actual achievement against the target goal take into account capital expenditures during the performance period.

The Committee incorporated investor feedback from the 2018 Investor Outreach Program in the PSU awards granted since 2019, such that the calculation of CFCF excludes any earnings generated from acquisitions occurring during the three-year performance period with a purchase price in excess of $25 million, including contingent earnouts, if such acquisition was not incorporated into the CFCF target goal.

Other specific adjustments for the 2021 CFCF metric relate to the use of cash that differs from management’s budget and are used for:

▪former parent legacy payments;

▪taxes;

▪pension payments;

▪business optimization & restructuring expenses;

▪extinguishment of debt;

▪obligations under the relocation securitization programs; and

▪litigation and regulatory compliance, net of insurance reimbursement.

Achievement Against Performance Metrics and Payouts under the 2019-2021 PSU Award Cycle

On February 24, 2022, the Committee made the following determinations with respect to the PSU awards granted in 2019 that measured performance over a three-year performance period ended December 31, 2021:

No payout was earned under the RTSR metric.


Relative Total Stockholder Return Results 0% Payout Earned (2019-2021 Cycle)
Realogy TSR	S&P MidCap 400	Actual Relative TSR	Payout
-2%	61%	-63%	0%

RTSR Performance Range (2019-2021 Cycle)

▪Target if RTSR is equal to the

S&P MidCap 400 Index

▪Maximum if RTSR better than +37.5%

▪Threshold if RTSR is better than -30%

Maximum payout was earned under the CFCF metric.

The following table sets forth the:

▪Pre-established CFCF performance levels over the three-year period of January 1, 2019 to December 31, 2021 at threshold, target and maximum payout; and

▪Actual CFCF performance achieved during the 2019 to 2021 period.

Given the Company's strong performance, the Committee determined in February 2022 not to make any adjustments permitted under the 2019-2021 CFCF PSU awards as such adjustments would have had the net impact of positively increasing the level of Cumulative Free Cash Flow achieved.


Cumulative Free Cash Flow† Results 200% Payout Earned (2019-2021 Cycle)

(2)Target value realized represents the 2021 payout value divided by the target award.

(3)All 2019-2021 PSU awards were granted on February 28, 2019, other than Ms. Simonelli's awards, which were granted on March 25, 2019 upon her commencement of employment with the Company.


Outstanding PSU Cycles

See page 6 of this proxy statement for the status of outstanding PSU cycles as of December 31, 2021. Actual results will be determined based upon results under the applicable metric at the conclusion of the applicable three-year cycle.

Time-Based Awards

Restricted Stock Units. Vesting restrictions on restricted stock units, or RSUs, lapse over three years, with 33.33% lapsing on each anniversary of the grant date.

When setting LTI awards, our Committee considers the important role of RSUs in:

▪encouraging executive retention; and

▪aligning the interests of our NEOs with the interests of our stockholders, as the value of these time-based awards will increase or decrease with the value of our stock.

Dividend Equivalent Units. PSUs and RSUs are entitled to be credited with dividend equivalent rights related to any cash dividend paid by Realogy. Options do not carry dividend equivalent rights. Realogy has not declared a dividend since the fourth quarter of 2019. Any additional units that that may credited as dividend equivalents are subject to the same vesting requirements, settlement provisions, and other terms and conditions as the original award to which they relate. No dividend equivalents will be paid unless and until the underlying award is vested or settled.

2022 Annual and Long-Term Incentive Programs

In February 2022, the Committee determined that the design of the 2022 annual cash and long-term equity incentive awards would be substantially consistent with the design of the 2021 program.

Specifically, the 2022 Executive Incentive Plan will continue to be funded based upon the achievement of EBITDA with individual payouts under the plan based Relative Individual Performance. NEO target awards under the EIP remain unchanged.

2022 long-term incentive awards consist of the same forms of equity and weighting as set forth on page 46, with the 2022 to 2024 PSU awards continuing to be based on RTSR and CFCF. See the "2022 Long-Term Incentive Awards" table on the next page.

(2)The number of target PSUs granted under the RTSR metric was determined by dividing the value of the award approved by the Committee by our closing stock price on the date of grant ($18.00), while the grant date fair market value of $12.37 per RTSR PSU was determined, in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718, by a Monte Carlo simulation performed by an independent third-party.

2020 One-Time Market Share Performance & Retention Awards

In the second half of 2020, the Committee granted each NEO a cash-based performance incentive award tied to a market share metric (each, a "Market Share Performance Award") and a time-vested cash award (each, a "Retention Award").

The Market Share Performance Award (weighted 75% of the total award for the CEO and 50% for the other executive officers) requires achievement of growth in Realogy's share of existing homesale transaction volume over a two-year period ending September 30, 2022, with an additional performance period applicable to the CEO based upon market share growth for the one-year period ending September 30, 2023.

The Committee established a two-year performance period for the Market Share Performance Award applicable to all NEOs in order to motivate performance over the longer term and established an additional cycle covering 2022 to 2023 for the CEO to incentivize continued growth in the context of a multi-year performance program. The Committee determined to grant a cash-based award due to limitations on the availability of shares under the 2018 Long-Term Incentive Plan and based on retention considerations.

Factors Considered by the Committee. In selecting market share growth as the performance metric for the Market Share Performance Award, the Committee took into consideration that this metric would require

the management team to successfully execute multiple strategic initiatives over the performance period, including the:

▪recruitment and retention of independent sales agents affiliated with our company owned brokerages;

▪attraction and retention of franchisees; and

▪delivery of products and programs, including lead generation programs and products that are appealing to consumers and/or make independent sales agents and brokerages more productive and their businesses more profitable.

The Committee also noted that success on the market share metric could favorably impact other key strategic initiatives, including enabling the Company to gain greater transaction economics through our ancillary businesses. In addition, the market share metric added an objective performance criteria focused on top-line business growth.

In addition, the Committee discussed that the mix of metrics utilized in the regular performance-based compensation program offered protection against the potential for unintended incentives under the Market Share Performance Award, as the pursuit of unprofitable market share would have an adverse impact on both the Operating EBITDA and Free Cash Flow metrics utilized in the Company's annual and long-term based compensation program.

Market Share Award—Design Features
Metric Description			Growth in market share over a two-year period ending September 2022 CEO has an additional performance period ending September 2023 Market share at September 30, 2020 was 15.0%
Target Opportunity ($)			CEO = 1.5x base salary, per performance period Other NEOs = 1.0x base salary
Opportunity Range (%)			Target = 100% Threshold = Not applicable Maximum = Not applicable

The Committee's consideration of the Market Share Performance Award and Retention Award took place over several meetings, including during the period of heightened volatility due to the COVID-19 crisis. In establishing the retention component of the award, the Committee considered that the NEOs had experienced significant decreases in realizable value of target direct compensation in the past several years (including the impact of the voluntary temporary salary reductions in place for part of 2020 as a result of the COVID-19 crisis). The Committee recognized that these declines in realizable value may disadvantage the Company going forward as, at the time the award was made, equity awards granted between 2017 to 2019 offered limited incentive or retentive value to the key executive talent that is critical to the execution of our long-term strategy and future growth potential. The Committee also acknowledged the competitive landscape for executive talent and the potential business disruption likely to be caused by a loss of our NEOs' expertise. The Committee also discussed the outstanding performance of the NEOs, in particular Mr. Schneider, in light of the challenges presented during 2020.

The Committee believes that the Retention Awards successfully achieved their intended purpose, as all of our historical NEOs (except one) who received such award were retained during a period of extreme volatility.

Mechanics. The Market Share Performance Award will be earned if our market share (as measured by our transaction volume for existing home sale transactions) as of September 30, 2022 exceeds our 15.0% of market share as of September 30, 2020

(and, for the additional performance period applicable to the CEO, if market share on September 30, 2023 exceeds market share on September 30, 2022). No amounts will be earned if the performance metric is not satisfied. As of December 31, 2021, our market share had increased to 16.4%, and accordingly, the Market Share Performance Awards were tracking to pay out at target, subject to actual results at the end of the award cycle.

Market share is measured by the ratio of:

▪Homesale transaction volume (sides times average price) in which Realogy’s owned brokerages and franchisees participate to

▪All existing homesale transactions in the U.S. as reported by the National Association of Realtors (NAR), regardless of whether an agent or broker was involved in the transaction—calculated by doubling the number of existing homesale transactions reported by NAR to account for both the buy and sell sides of a transaction multiplied by NAR's average sales price.

Each participant generally must remain employed with the Company throughout the applicable performance period in order to be eligible to receive a payout of the Market Share Performance Award. If a participant’s employment is terminated without cause or due to his or her death, disability, or retirement during the applicable performance period, such participant will be eligible to receive a pro-rata amount of the Market Share Performance Award based on actual performance.

The Retention Award was subject to forfeiture if the applicable NEO retired or terminated employment with the Company with or without cause or for good reason and was equal to 100% base salary for each NEO, including the CEO. These awards are reported in the Bonus column of the Summary Compensation Table for 2021.

Our Clawback Policy applies to both the Market Share Performance Award and the Retention Award, which will allow our Board of Directors to recoup incentive compensation in the event of a material restatement or adjustment of our financial statements, misconduct, or breach of the participant’s restrictive covenants with the Company, including those related to non-competition and non-solicitation.

Stock Ownership Requirements

Realogy’s Stock Ownership Guidelines encourage stock ownership among the Executive Committee members to further the objective of aligning our executives’ interests with those of our stockholders.


Stock Ownership Guidelines
CEO			6x salary
Other EC Members			3x salary

Under Realogy’s stock ownership guidelines, members of the Executive Committee are required to own shares of our common stock equal to a specified multiple of their annual base salary. Realogy common stock, deferred stock units and unvested RSUs count toward achieving the ownership requirement. Options and unearned PSUs are not counted.

Compliance must be achieved within five years of becoming an Executive Committee member. Executive Committee members must retain one-half of the net shares upon exercise of an option (after giving effect to the exercise price and applicable taxes upon exercise) and one-half of the net full-value shares that vest until the Executive Committee member has met his or her minimum ownership level. In the event that an Executive Committee member has not met the ownership requirement at the end of the five-year period, such executive must retain 100% of the net shares until compliance is achieved.

Mr. Schneider, Ms. Simonelli and Ms. Wasser satisfied the ownership requirements as of December 31, 2021. Ms. Helmkamp and Mr. Gorman have five years from the date they became a member of the Executive Committee to meet the ownership requirement.

Limited Other Benefits and Perquisites

Our compensation program does not include material other benefits or perquisites.

All employees, including NEOs, may participate in our 401(k) plan. The plan currently provides a matching contribution of 60% of amounts contributed by the officer, subject to a maximum of 6% of eligible compensation.

In December 2017, the Committee froze participation in our Executive Deferred Compensation Plan, which previously allowed NEOs to defer cash and/or equity under that plan. None of our NEOs participate in a now-closed, defined benefit pension plan and excess

benefit plan (future accruals of benefits were frozen on October 31, 1999).

Qualifying employees who are required to relocate in connection with their commencement of employment with us are entitled to relocation benefits through Cartus, including limited tax gross-up assistance.

Timing & Valuation of Equity Grants

The Committee's practice generally is to grant LTI awards to the NEOs at the regularly scheduled Committee meeting in February of each year with awards granted and priced on the third trading day following the release of full year earnings results and the filing of our Annual Report on Form 10-K. In 2022, we issued our earnings release prior to the filing of our Form 10-K and in advance of the Committee meeting and, accordingly, LTI awards were issued on the third trading day following the filing of our Form 10-K. The Committee retains the ability to determine that another grant date may be appropriate in certain circumstances.

During the year, the Committee also may approve equity awards, typically for executives hired or promoted and in connection with acquisitions. The Committee also has delegated to the CEO certain limited authority to make grants to non-Section 16 officers and the Committee is apprised of any such grants on a quarterly basis.

In connection with valuing the grants of equity awards, it is our policy generally to use, as the grant or strike price for any equity award, the closing price of our common stock on the effective date of the grant. For RSUs and for PSUs, the Committee typically approves a dollar value, which is then divided by the closing sale price of our common stock on the date of grant. For determining the grant date fair value of PSUs that have an RTSR metric, the Committee utilizes a Monte Carlo simulation performed by an independent third-party valuation firm to determine fair value.

Hedging and Pledging Prohibited

Our Procedures and Guidelines Governing Securities Trades by Company Personnel prohibits all Directors, executive officers and employees from engaging in hedging transactions or pledging the Company’s securities, including but not limited to our common stock, and no waiver from that prohibition may be granted by the Company.

Tax Considerations

The Committee remains committed to continuing to link executive compensation with Company performance through performance-based and at-risk compensation vehicles in 2021 and future years, despite the elimination of the performance-based compensation exemption upon the passage of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act in December 2017.

Clawback Policy


Clawback Policy Overview
Who does the Clawback Policy apply to?			Current and former Section 16 officers
What compensation can be clawed back?			Cash incentive or equity-based compensation
What situations give rise to claw back?			The Committee has discretion to claw back compensation in the event of: - A material restatement or adjustment to the financial statements that would have had the effect of reducing incentive compensation received in past three years - Misconduct, including knowing legal/regulatory breaches, fraud, knowing misrepresentations and corruption resulting in material financial or reputational harm

In addition, each of our NEOs is subject to one or more restrictive covenant agreements with Realogy (which include non-compete and non-solicitation provisions) pursuant to which the Company can clawback severance payments or stop the payment of equity awards if the restrictive covenant agreement is breached.

Severance Protection

As described in more detail under “—Agreements with Named Executive Officers” and “—Potential Payments upon Termination or Change in Control,” each of our NEOs is entitled to severance pay and benefits upon a “qualifying termination”—meaning, a termination without “cause” by the Company or a termination for “good reason” by the executive.

For each of our NEOs, severance pay is equal to a multiple of the sum of annual base salary and target annual incentive, along with the continuation of welfare benefits. The severance multiple for our CEO is 200% and for each other NEO is 100% (although, in the case of a qualifying termination of employment within twenty-four months following or in connection with a change in control of the Company, their multiple is 200%).

The higher multiples of base salary and target bonus payable to Mr. Schneider are based upon his overall greater responsibilities for our performance.

No NEO is entitled to any tax reimbursement protection for “golden parachute excise taxes.”

The Committee believes the severance and benefits payable to our NEOs under the foregoing circumstances aid in the attraction and retention of these executives as a competitive practice and are balanced by the inclusion of restrictive covenants (such as non-compete provisions) to protect our value following a termination of an executive’s employment without cause or by the executive for good reason. In addition, we believe the provision of these benefits will keep the executives focused on the operation and management of the business.

Compensation Risk Assessment

As part of its oversight of the Company’s executive compensation program, the Committee annually considers the impact of the Company’s executive compensation program, and the incentives created by the compensation awards that it administers, on the Company’s risk profile. See “Governance of the Company—Oversight of Risk Management” for additional information on the Committee’s process.

Role of Committee, Advisors and Executives in Setting Executive Compensation

All of the members of the Committee are Independent Directors.

The Committee has the power and authority to oversee our compensation policies and programs and makes all compensation-related decisions for our NEOs. While the Committee may take into account recommendations from its independent compensation consultant as well as the CEO (other than with respect to his own compensation), the Committee has final approval over all compensation decisions for our executive officers.


Key Facts: Independent Compensation Consultant
Committee’s Independent Compensation Consultant						Meridian Compensation Partners, LLC, or Meridian
Annual Independence Assessment						Meridian’s independence was assessed and confirmed by the Committee in 2021
Key Services Provided to the Committee in 2021						Meridian provides the Committee with analyses and advice on Executive & Director compensation matters, including in 2021: - Competitive market pay analyses utilizing peer group and survey data - Short- and long-term incentive program design for 2021 and 2022 - Recommendations with respect to revisions to the compensation peer group for utilization in pay analyses commencing in 2022 - Recommendations with respect to changes to Director compensation implemented in May 2021

The Committee’s independent compensation consultant reviews compensation materials presented by management to the Committee, participates in one or more pre-meeting calls with the Committee Chair and attends all regularly scheduled meetings of the Committee. In 2021, the Committee’s independent compensation consultant provided de minimis services not related to executive or director compensation and/or to management.

The CEO annually reviews the performance of, and makes recommendations regarding, each of our NEOs (other than himself). The CEO’s performance is annually reviewed by the Committee with input from the Board. The conclusions reached and recommendations based upon these reviews, including with respect to salary adjustment and annual and long-term incentive compensation targets and actual payout amounts, are presented to the Committee, which has the discretion to modify any recommended adjustments or awards to our executives. The Company’s Chief People Officer participates in the data analysis process.

Our Peer Group

The Committee annually reviews our compensation peer group in consultation with its independent compensation consultant.

2021 Peer Group. Based on its review in the third quarter of 2020, the Committee determined that the existing peer group continued to provide it with a reasonable view of the market in which Realogy competes for executive talent.

In November 2020, the Committee received a detailed and comprehensive analysis of peer group information and general industry survey data designed by its independent compensation consultant to educate the Committee on current compensation ranges by executive position together with plan design and component weighting information.

The Committee considered the analysis presented at its November 2020 meeting as well as an evaluation of executive performance in early 2021 in setting NEO compensation for 2021.

2022 Peer Group. In the second half of 2021, the Committee determined to expand its peer group to include five businesses that had more recently become publicly traded or had revised their business model to be more comparable to the Company.



			56

Table of C o n tents

The Committee also determined to remove three businesses from its peer group and to replace one business with a similar business that was more comparable to the Company in size.

The Committee utilized this revised peer group in connection with its consideration of NEO compensation for 2022.

Peer Group Generally. As many of the Company’s closest peers continue to be privately held (or comprise a part of a much larger reporting company), the Committee also uses peers in industries that resemble the Company’s cyclicality, business model and financial performance or that are influenced by the housing market or share traits of our other business units.

Although the firms in our peer group employ executives with a skill set comparable to those of the Company, many operate in businesses with very different business cycles from residential real estate. Accordingly, the Committee has not relied on our compensation peer group when constructing the RTSR metric for PSU awards and recognizes the need to look beyond that peer group, to other more broad-ranging survey data when setting executive compensation. However, the Committee considers only aggregated survey data, not the identity of the individual survey data companies.

In terms of size, compared to our 2021 peer group, based upon data as of and for the year ended December 31, 2021, Realogy’s revenues were at the 51st percentile and its market capitalization was lowest of the peers.

_______________

(1)The non-equity incentive plan awards represent grants made under the 2021 Executive Incentive Plan, or EIP. The performance criteria under the EIP for each named executive officer was 2021 Plan Operating EBITDA. Funding based on achievement of Plan Operating EBITDA could range from 25% for threshold performance to maximum funding at 200%. Each executive officer's potential award was subject to decrease or increase based on his or her Relative Individual Performance - provided that the aggregate value of awards under the EIP could not exceed the funding level achieved (e.g., any increase in a participant's award must result in a decrease in another participant's award). The target incentive award payable to our named executive officers in 2021 was 100% of their respective earned salaries, or in the case of Mr. Schneider, 200% of earned salary.

(2)The relative total stockholder return performance share unit award under this column for each named executive officer represents the potential threshold, target and maximum number of shares that may be earned (40%, 100% and 175% of target). Vesting of the RTSR performance share unit award is contingent upon achievement of the following metric: Realogy's total stockholder return relative to the S&P MidCap 400 index ("RTSR") for the three-year performance period ending December 31, 2023. Payouts under the RTSR metric will be based upon the extent to which Realogy's total stockholder return for the three-year period performs relative to the S&P MidCap 400 index total stockholder return. The actual number of performance share units earned pursuant to this award will be determined and paid following the completion of the three-year performance period based on our actual performance against the performance goals established at the time of grant, as adjusted. Performance share units, if earned, convert to our common stock on a one-

for-one basis. See —Compensation Discussion and Analysis—Long-Term Incentive—Performance Share Units—Relative Total Stockholder Return for a further discussion.

(3)The Cumulative Free Cash Flow ("CFCF") performance share unit award under this column for each named executive officer represents the potential threshold, target and maximum number of shares that may be earned under a performance share unit award (50%, 100% and 200% of target). Vesting of the CFCF performance share unit award is contingent upon achievement of the Cumulative Free Cash Flow goal for the three-year performance period ending December 31, 2023. The actual number of performance share units earned pursuant to this award will be determined and paid following the completion of the three-year performance period based on our actual performance against the performance goals established at the time of grant, as adjusted. Performance share units, if earned, convert to our common stock on a one-for-one basis. See "—Compensation Discussion and Analysis—Long-Term Incentive—Performance Share Units—Cumulative Free Cash Flow" for a further discussion.

(4)Consists of a restricted stock unit award that vests in three equal annual installments on February 25, 2022, 2023 and 2024.

(5)Represents the grant date fair value computed in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718. The assumptions we used in determining the grant date fair value of these awards are described in Note 13, "Stock-Based Compensation" to our consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation at 2021 Fiscal Year End

On December 15, 2017, the Compensation Committee froze participation in the Amended and Restated Realogy Group LLC Executive Deferred Compensation Plan (the "DCP"). As a result of the Compensation Committee's action, only DCP accounts existing on or prior to January 1, 2017 were permitted to continue, but no further compensation deferrals were allowed under the DCP.

The DCP, originally approved by the Board of Managers of Realogy Group on April 9, 2013, amended and restated the Realogy Corporation Officer Deferred Compensation Plan, as previously amended, participation in which had been frozen since January 1, 2009 and also unfroze participation in the DCP.

The DCP was for the benefit of certain of our key employees selected by our Compensation Committee from time to time. Under the DCP, participants were permitted to defer both cash and equity-based compensation on such terms as our Compensation Committee determined from time to time.

For equity deferrals, the vesting terms of deferred awards remained unchanged, though the distribution of shares issuable upon vesting of the applicable award was deferred pursuant to the NEO's deferral election. Deferred equity awards were exchanged for

deferred stock units on a one-for-one basis. Dividend equivalent units accrue on deferred stock units if the underlying award agreement provided for the accrual of dividend equivalent units.

For cash deferrals, we utilize a "rabbi trust" for the purpose of holding assets to be used for the payment of benefits under the DCP. Accounts are established in a participant's name and the participant allocated his or her cash deferrals to one or more deemed investments under the DCP.

Generally, a participant's deferral will be paid on a fixed date elected by the participant or, if earlier, on the first anniversary following a participant's separation from service for elections made prior to December 11, 2014 or on the last business day of the quarter following a participant's separation of service for elections made on or after December 11, 2014. A participant in the DCP could elect to defer to a single lump-sum payment of his or her account or elect payments over time.

Ms. Wasser is the only NEOs who had a DCP account in 2021. Ms. Wasser's account is comprised of deferred stock units related to deferred restricted stock unit and performance stock unit awards as well as deferred cash.

The following table sets forth certain information with respect to Ms. Wasser's DCP account for 2021:


Name	Executive Contributions in Last FY ($)	Registrant Contributions in Last FY ($)	Aggregate Earnings in Last FY ($)(2)	Aggregate Withdrawals/Distributions ($)	Aggregate Balance at Last FYE ($)(3)
Marilyn Wasser(1)	—	—	97,519	—	670,885

_______________

(1)None of the amounts reported in the table were previously reported as compensation in the Summary Compensation Table.

(2)The amount reported reflects gains on cash deferrals and the increase in the value of deferred stock units.

(3)The amount reported is the value of cash deferrals and the market value of deferred stock units in Ms. Wasser's DCP account based upon the closing price of our common stock on December 31, 2021.

Agreements with Named Executive Officers

The following summarizes our employment agreement with Mr. Schneider and the executive severance arrangements in place as of December 31, 2021 with each of our other NEOs.

Employment & Severance Arrangements. The terms of the employment agreement between the Company and Mr. Schneider entered into on March 11, 2020 (the "CEO Agreement"), are generally consistent with the executive severance and change in control provisions reflected in Realogy's Executive

Severance Plan and Executive Change in Control Plan (together, the "Severance & CIC Plans").

Each of our other named executive officers were participants in the Severance & CIC Plans as of December 31, 2021 and have a separate letter agreement with the Company concerning material terms of their employment.

We refer to the CEO Agreement and the Severance & CIC Plans collectively in this section as the "NEO Agreements."



			66

Table of C o n tents

The material terms and conditions of the NEO Agreements are summarized below.

Term. Under the NEO Agreements, each NEO's employment with us is at will, including that of the CEO, and may be terminated at any time in accordance with the terms of the respective agreement.

However, the Company's severance obligations (described below) under the CEO Agreement survive for three years following the execution of the agreement or, if following a change in control of the Company (as defined in such agreement) the second anniversary of the change in control or the original termination date, if later.

The Committee, as Plan Administrator of the Severance & CIC Plans, may terminate, amend or modify such plans at any time, provided that, except as required by law, the plans may not be amended or terminated within six months prior to a change in control (as defined in the Severance & CIC Plans) or on or within two years immediately following a change in control in a manner that would adversely affect the rights of a participant without the express written consent of the participant so affected.

Annual Compensation. Each NEO’s annual base salary and target annual incentive award under the Executive Incentive Plan as of December 31, 2021 is set forth in the CD&A and is subject to increase in the Committee's discretion.

Each NEO may be eligible for long-term incentive awards as determined by the Compensation Committee in its sole discretion.

Non-Change-in-Control Severance. If the NEO experiences a “qualifying termination” (as described below), we will provide such NEO with the following severance payments and benefits, subject to continued compliance with their restrictive covenants and the execution and non-revocation of a release of claims:

▪an amount equal to 1.0 times (or with respect to Mr. Schneider, 2.0 times) the sum of the NEO's annual base salary and annual incentive award at target, payable in twenty-four equal monthly installments;

▪the continuation of medical and dental benefits on terms no less favorable to the NEO than those terms in effect immediately prior to the termination of employment for a period of up to 18 months; and

▪outplacement services for a period of up to twelve months, the value of such services not to exceed $50,000.

Change-in-Control Severance. If the NEO experiences a "qualifying termination" within 24 months following a change in control of the Company, we will provide such NEO with the same benefits described in the prior section (Non-Change-in-Control Severance), subject to continued compliance with their restrictive covenants and the execution and non-revocation of a release of claims, except that each NEO will be entitled to a severance amount equal to 2.0 times the sum of their base salary and annual incentive award at target, payable in lump sum.

The NEO Agreements also provide that if an NEO experiences a qualifying termination prior to a change in control (but, only if a change in control occurs) and such termination is determined to be in connection with or in anticipation of a change in control or is at the request or direction of a person who has entered into an agreement with the Company, the consummation of which would constitute a change in control, the Company will provide the NEO with change in control severance payments (i.e., 2.0 times base salary and target incentive award) rather than standard severance benefits (i.e., 1.0 base salary and target incentive award).

Pro-Rata Annual Incentive Award. Upon a qualifying termination, the NEOs will also receive a pro-rata annual incentive award in respect of the fiscal year in which their termination of employment occurs, determined based on the Company’s actual performance and payable at such time such awards are payable to other employees of the Company.

Qualifying Termination. A “qualifying termination” means the NEO's employment is terminated by the Company without cause or the executive resigns with good reason.

Payments and Benefits Upon a Termination due to Death, Disability or Retirement. Under the NEO Agreements, upon a termination of employment due to death or disability or retirement, the NEO will be eligible to receive accrued compensation and a pro-rated annual incentive award. In the case of death, the NEO will also be eligible to receive a supplemental death insurance benefit in the amount of 2.5 times their annual base salary on the date of death up to $2 million (inclusive of any Company provided life insurance to the NEO), provided that such NEO has qualified for such benefit. There is no severance payable upon any death or disability or retirement nor is there severance payable upon a termination at or after the expiration of the term of the NEO Agreements.



			67

Table of C o n tents

Section 280G. The NEO Agreements provide that if payments and benefits provided to the NEO would constitute an “excess parachute payment” for purposes of Section 280G of the tax code, the NEO will either have their payments and benefits reduced to the highest amount that could be paid without triggering Section 280G or receive the after-tax amount of their payment and benefits, whichever results in the greater after-tax benefit, taking into account the excise tax imposed under Section 4999 of the tax code and any applicable federal, state and local taxes.

Restrictive Covenants and Clawback. Under the NEO Agreements, each NEO is subject to a non-compete period which is three years for Mr. Schneider and two years for each other NEO and a non-solicitation period of three years following the NEO's termination of employment for any reason. The Company’s Clawback Policy applies in the event the NEO breaches his or her restrictive covenants under the NEO Agreement.

Definitions under the NEO Agreements.

Cause. Cause is defined in the NEO Agreements as (i) the NEO's willful failure to substantially perform his or her duties as an employee of the Company or any subsidiary (other than any such failure resulting from incapacity due to physical or mental illness), (ii) any act of fraud, misappropriation, dishonesty, embezzlement or similar conduct against the Company or any subsidiary, (iii) the NEO's conviction of, or plea of guilty or nolo contendere to a charge of commission of, a felony or crime involving moral turpitude, (iv) the NEO's indictment for a charge of commission of a felony or any crime involving moral turpitude, (v) the NEO's gross negligence in the performance of his or her duties, (vi) the NEO purposefully or negligently makes (or has been found to have made) a false certification to the Company pertaining to its financial statements, (vii) the habitual use of drugs or habitual, excessive use of alcohol to the extent that any of such uses in the Board’s good faith determination materially interferes with the performance of the NEO's duties, (viii) a breach of fiduciary duty and/or (ix) a material breach by the NEO of any of the terms and conditions of the NEO Agreement or a material breach of any of the NEO's representations in the NEO Agreement. A termination

will not be for “Cause” pursuant to clause (i), (ii), (v) or (ix), to the extent such conduct is curable, unless the Company shall have notified the NEO in writing describing such conduct and the NEO has failed to cure such conduct within ten business days after his or her receipt of such written notice.

Good Reason. Good Reason is defined in the CEO Agreement as voluntary resignation after any of the following actions taken by the Company or any of its subsidiaries without the CEO's consent: (i) his removal from, or failure to be nominated or re-elected to, the Board; (ii) a material reduction of his duties and responsibilities to the Company or his title or position or reporting (other than any such failure resulting from incapacity due to physical or mental illness), (iii) a reduction in base salary or target annual incentive award opportunity (not including any diminution in base salary permitted under the CEO Agreement); (iv) relocation of his primary office to a location more than a pre-established distance from the prior location following a change in control of the Company if his commute increases as a result of such relocation or (v) a material breach by the Company of a material provision of the CEO Agreement.

The definition of Good Reason under the Severance & CIC Plans is substantially similar to that under the CEO Agreement except for the following material differences:

▪clause (i) of the definition of Good Reason under the CEO Agreement regarding Director service is not contained in the definition of Good Reason in the Severance & CIC Plans; and

▪the definition of Good Reason under the Severance & CIC Plans excludes a reduction in an NEO's EIP target as giving rise to a "good reason" termination.

Retirement. Retirement is any separation of service of an executive who is retirement eligible other than a termination for Cause or a termination in connection with a change in control. Retirement eligibility is defined under the NEO Agreements as 65 years of age or older, or 55 years of age or older plus at least ten years of tenure with the Company.

Table of C o n tents

_______________

(1)Each NEO is entitled to payment of accrued but unpaid salary to the date of termination and payment of the 2021 EIP, to the extent earned. See "—Summary Compensation Table" for amounts earned by the NEOs under the 2021 EIP. The amounts set forth in the table do not include accrued but unpaid salary or any earned compensation under the 2021 EIP arising from a termination of employment as of December 31, 2021. The amounts shown also do not include deferred compensation payable to Ms. Wasser under the Amended and Restated Executive Deferred Compensation Plan.

(2)The value ascribed to equity acceleration/vesting of awards in this table is based upon the closing price of our common stock as of December 31, 2021 ($16.81 per share).

(3)PSUs assumed by an acquiror in a change of control transaction are converted into time-vesting restricted stock units. The vesting of options and restricted stock units (including any time-vesting restricted stock units into which PSUs have been converted upon a change of control) accelerate in the event the individual terminates his or her employment for "Good Reason" or his or her employment is terminated for other than "Cause" within 24 months of a change of control.

(4)Ms. Wasser was "retirement eligible" at December 31, 2021 and the amount shown under this column for "Equity Acceleration/Vesting" is the amount she would be entitled to under the "Retirement" column as the retirement eligible provisions of her awards provide greater benefits. See footnote (6) below.

For other NEOs, the amount shown under this column for "Equity Acceleration/Vesting" is the sum of the pro rata shares that would be payable, if earned, under outstanding PSU awards at the end of the three-year performance period based upon the actual results, utilizing the assumptions set forth in footnotes (6) to (9) to the "Outstanding Equity Awards at 2021 Fiscal Year End" table.

(5)Amounts shown under this column for "Equity Acceleration/Vesting" for Ms. Wasser (as a retirement eligible grantee) is the sum of (1) the amount set forth under the "Retirement" column and (2) the value of the unvested 2021 restricted stock unit award.

For other NEOs, the amount shown under this column for "Equity Acceleration/Vesting" is the sum of (1) the pro rata shares that would be payable, if earned, under outstanding PSU awards at the end of the three-year performance period based upon the actual results, utilizing the assumptions set forth in footnotes (6) to (9) to the "Outstanding Equity Awards at 2021 Fiscal Year End" table; (2) the value of unvested restricted stock unit awards; and (3) the aggregate value of the accelerated vesting of options, calculated by multiplying the difference between the closing price of our common stock on December 31, 2021 ($16.81) and the option exercise price by the number of stock options subject to accelerated vesting.

All salaried employees are entitled to death insurance benefits of up to $1.0 million. The amounts reported under the column for Death and Dismemberment Insurance Benefits are the proceeds (over this $1.0 million) that are payable to NEOs that have qualified for supplemental coverage under a death and dismemberment insurance policy available to the NEOs, the premiums of which are paid by the Company. The death and dismemberment insurance benefit is an amount up to 2.5 times the NEO's annual base salary at the time of death, rounded up to the nearest $1,000 (which is inclusive of any standard Company-provided life insurance policy applicable to the NEO), subject to a further cap of $2 million.

(6)For Ms. Wasser (as a retirement eligible grantee): (1) options and restricted stock units will continue to vest provided she has been employed or provided services to the Company for one year following the date of grant and (2) performance stock units will continue to vest provided she has been employed or provided service to the Company for the first year of the three-year performance cycle.

The amounts shown under this column for "Equity Acceleration/Vesting" for Ms. Wasser is the sum of (1) the amount that would be payable under their 2020 and 2021 PSU awards utilizing the assumptions set forth in footnotes (6) to (9) to the "Outstanding Equity Awards at 2021 Fiscal Year End" table, (2) the value of her unvested 2019 and 2020 restricted stock unit awards (as the one-year service requirement had been satisfied for those grants) and (3) the aggregate value of the accelerated vesting of options, calculated by multiplying the difference between the closing price of our common stock on December 31, 2021 ($16.81) and the option exercise price by the number of stock options subject to accelerated vesting.

Pay Ratio

At the direction of the Compensation Committee and in accordance with SEC rules, the Company has calculated:

▪the estimated median of the annual total compensation of all employees, except our CEO (our "non-CEO median employee");

▪the annual total compensation of our CEO; and

▪the estimated ratio of the annual total compensation of our non-CEO median employee to our CEO (the "pay ratio").

In identifying the non-CEO median employee, we considered 9,103 employees, which included all of our (and our consolidated subsidiaries) full- and part-time, seasonal and temporary employees, including employees on a leave of absence as of December 31, 2020 in the United States and the United Kingdom, other than our CEO. These employees represented over 96% of our total employee base of 9,434 at December 31, 2020. As of December 31, 2021 we had 9,832 employees.

As of December 31, 2021, we had 330 employees in jurisdictions other than the U.S. and the U.K., who in the aggregate represented 3.36% of our total employee base at December 31, 2021 and were excluded from calculating our non-CEO median employee as permitted by SEC rules.

These employees were located as follows as of December 31, 2021:


Country	Employees (#)	Employee Base (%)
Brazil	7	0.07%
Canada	13	0.13%
China	40	0.41%
Hong Kong	29	0.29%
India	95	0.97%
Netherlands	1	0.01%
Singapore	145	1.47%
Total	330	3.36%

The consistently applied compensation measure used to identify our non-CEO median employee was the sum of:

▪salary (or, for non-salaried employees, wages plus overtime) for fiscal year 2020;

▪cash award payments made in 2020, including payments made under our annual cash incentive plan and other cash-based incentive and commission plans;

▪the grant date fair value of equity awards; and

▪Company contributions to 401(k) plans (or, in the United Kingdom, pension plans).

We did not make cost-of-living adjustments to these amounts, but in determining the compensation of employees located in the U.K., we converted the aggregate value of each employee's compensation from British pounds to U.S. dollars using the conversion rate of 1.35772, as in effect as of the last day of 2020.

The employee identified through this process also serves as our non-CEO median employee for the year ended December 31, 2021. We believe that the 2020 non-CEO median employee remains representative of our median employee as there has been no change in our employee population or employee compensation arrangements that we reasonably believe would result in a significant change to our pay ratio disclosure.

Based on the above, our non-CEO median employee is a full-time employee located in the United States with annual total compensation of $71,694 in fiscal year 2021. This amount includes a base salary of $68,214, cash incentive payments of $1,025, and $2,455 in Company contributions to the Company's 401(k) plan. The non-CEO median employee did not participate in the Company's regular annual cash incentive plan, did not receive any other cash bonus or equity award in fiscal year 2021 and did not participate in the Realogy Pension Plan or Realogy Executive Deferred Compensation Plan.

Mr. Schneider's total compensation for fiscal year 2021 was $12,619,247 as set forth in the Summary Compensation Table.

Based on these amounts, the estimated pay ratio of Mr. Schneider's annual total compensation to that of our non-CEO median employee for fiscal year 2021 is 1:176.

PROPOSAL 2: ADVISORY VOTE ON REALOGY HOLDINGS EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

We are asking our stockholders to cast a non-binding advisory vote to approve the compensation of our NEOs in 2021 described in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis and other compensation disclosure regarding NEO compensation, which we refer to as a "Say-on-Pay Vote."

We hold an advisory vote on the compensation of our NEOs on an annual basis in accordance with the preference expressed by our stockholders at our 2019 annual meeting regarding the frequency of the Say-on-Pay Vote.

Because your vote is advisory, it will not be binding upon or overrule any decisions of the Board, nor will it create or imply any additional fiduciary duty on the part of the Board. However, the Compensation Committee values the opinions expressed by stockholders in their vote on this proposal and will take into account the outcome of the vote when considering executive compensation arrangements in the future.

Executive Compensation Program

Realizable Compensation Tracks Performance. Our rigorous performance-based program is designed so that CEO and other NEO realizable target direct compensation follows the same trajectory as our business performance, including in 2021:

▪Realized value was 139% of target for the 2019-2021 performance share unit awards.

•No payouts for awards tied to Relative Total Stockholder Return

•Maximum achievement for awards tied to Cumulative Free Cash Flow

▪Payouts at maximum under the 2021 annual Executive Incentive Plan, reflecting our outstanding Operating EBITDA achievement in 2021, driven by a 29% increase in combined homesale transaction volume compared with 2020 — which was itself a strong homesale transaction volume year — as well as our continued execution of short- and long-term strategic initiatives and continued strong demand in the housing market.

Responsive to Investor Feedback. Our Chairman of the Board and Chair of the Compensation Committee has reached out to our top stockholders every year since 2018 — including in 2021. Our 2021 executive compensation program incorporates investor feedback received during this outreach.

Program Highlights. Highlights of our 2021 executive compensation program include the following:

▪61% of our CEO's target direct compensation opportunity is linked to short- and long-term strategic and business goals as measured by our performance against absolute and relative metrics and his contribution to our strategic initiatives - with a significant portion of the target direct compensation opportunity for our other executives tied to the same metrics

▪At least 50% of target long-term incentive compensation is granted in the form of performance share units that require achievement of robust Company goals over a three-year period.

Compensation Strategy. As discussed in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, our executive compensation program is designed to:

▪support a high-performance environment by linking compensation with performance;

▪attract, motivate and retain key executives who are crucial to our long-term success;

▪reinforce ethical behavior and practices and discourage excessive risk-taking; and

▪align executive compensation with stockholder interests in both short-term performance and long-term value creation.

Strong Commitment to Best Compensation Practices. The Compensation Committee has established many "best practices" in the Company's executive compensation programs, as described elsewhere in this proxy statement.

We encourage you to read the Compensation Discussion and Analysis and the tables and narratives for the details on the 2021 compensation of our NEOs.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS A VOTE FOR

PROPOSAL 3: RATIFICATION OF THE APPOINTMENT OF THE INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Audit Committee has selected PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, or PwC, as our independent registered public accounting firm to conduct an integrated audit of our consolidated financial statements and internal control over financial reporting for fiscal year 2022.

PwC served as our independent registered public accounting firm for 2021 for both Realogy Holdings and Realogy Group and has served as our independent registered public accounting firm since May 2009.

The Audit Committee is directly responsible for the appointment, compensation, retention and oversight of the independent registered public accounting firm retained to audit the Company's financial statements. The Audit Committee annually reviews PwC's independence and performance in deciding whether to retain PwC as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm.

As part of its determination to retain PwC as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for fiscal year 2022, the Audit Committee took into account multiple factors, including:

▪Depth of Institutional and Industry Knowledge. PwC possesses significant institutional knowledge of the Company, including its segments, business and operations, accounting policies and practices, and internal control over financial reporting. Likewise, PwC has substantial experience auditing other companies providing real estate services and business processing services.

▪Quality of Services. The quality of PwC's historical and recent performance on the Company's audits has demonstrated the

capability and expertise of its audit team in handling the breadth and complexity of our operations. The Audit Committee also considered data relating to audit quality, including recent Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) reports on PwC and related industry information.

▪Demonstrated Objectivity. The Audit Committee considered the independence, objectivity, and professional skepticism demonstrated by PwC, including the quality and candor of PwC's communications with the Audit Committee and management.

▪Appropriateness of Fee Structure. PwC's fees have been considered appropriate, taking into account both the size and complexity of the Company's business in particular and generally as compared to other firms.

▪Potential for Business Disruption. The Audit Committee took into account the potential disruption of operational efficiencies and diversion of management time that could result in the engagement of a new independent registered public accounting firm that was not as knowledgeable about our business.

The Audit Committee also considered the Company's auditor independence controls, including the Audit Committee's pre-approval policy of all audit and non-audit services by PwC, the Audit Committee's frequent meetings with PwC in executive session and PwC's own independence process. The Audit Committee has considered whether the services provided by PwC, other than audit services, are compatible with maintaining that firm’s independence and has concluded that PwC is independent.



			74

Table of C o n tents

As an additional independence safeguard, PwC rotates its lead audit engagement partner every five years. The Audit Committee oversees the selection process for each new lead engagement partner, which was last done in 2020 and was effective for PwC's audit of the Company's consolidated financial statements for fiscal year 2021.

The Audit Committee's selection process includes a review of candidate qualifications, candidate interviews and discussions with management.

The Audit Committee and the Board believe that the continued retention of PwC as our independent registered public accounting firm is in the best interest of the Company and our stockholders, and we are asking our stockholders to ratify the selection of PwC as our independent registered public accounting firm for 2022.

Although ratification is not required by our Bylaws or otherwise, the Board is submitting the selection of PwC to our stockholders for ratification because we value our stockholders’ views on the Company’s

independent registered public accounting firm and as a matter of good corporate practice.

In the event that our stockholders fail to ratify the selection, it will be considered a recommendation to the Board and the Audit Committee to consider the selection of a different firm. Even if the selection is ratified, the Audit Committee may in its discretion select a different independent registered public accounting firm at any time during the year if it determines that such a change would be in the best interests of the Company and our stockholders.

Your proxy will be voted FOR the ratification of PwC as our independent registered public accounting firm for 2022 unless you indicate otherwise when you vote.

Representatives of PwC will be present at the Annual Meeting and available to respond to questions and will have the opportunity to make a statement if such representatives desire to do so.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS A VOTE

FOR THE ADOPTION OF THE PROPOSAL TO RATIFY THE APPOINTMENT OF THE

INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM.

Pre-Approval of Audit and Non-Audit Services

The Audit Committee (which for purposes of this section includes the Audit Committee of Realogy Group, whose members and purpose are identical to those of the Audit Committee of Realogy Holdings) is responsible for approving the terms of the independent auditor's services. The Audit Committee regularly reviews and pre-approves the nature and amount of non-audit services to be provided by the independent auditor, including when determining its independence.

All services performed by our independent auditors in 2021 and 2020 were pre-approved in accordance with the pre-approval policy and procedures adopted by our Audit Committee (as described below).

The pre-approval policy describes the permitted audit, audit-related, tax and other services (collectively, the "Disclosure Categories") that the independent auditor may perform. The policy requires that prior to the beginning of each fiscal year, a description of the nature and amount of services (the "Service List") anticipated to be performed by the independent auditor in each of the Disclosure Categories in the ensuing fiscal year be presented to the Audit Committee for approval.

Any requests for audit, audit-related, tax and other services not contemplated by the Service List must be submitted to the Audit Committee for specific pre-approval, irrespective of the amount, and cannot commence until such approval has been granted (subject to the limited de minimis provision described below). Normally, pre-approval is provided at regularly scheduled meetings of the Audit Committee. However, the authority to grant specific pre-approval between meetings, as necessary, has been delegated to the Chair of the Audit Committee, provided the aggregate fees in the particular Designated Category to which a specific pre-approval relates do not exceed the pre-approved amount. The Chair updates the full Audit Committee at the next regularly scheduled meeting for any interim approvals granted.

On at least a quarterly basis, the Audit Committee reviews the status of services and fees incurred year-to-date as compared to the Service List.

The policy contains a de minimis provision that operates to provide retroactive approval for permissible non-audit services under certain circumstances. No services were provided by PwC during 2021 or 2020 under such provision.

As an additional internal control measure intended to protect auditor independence, the Audit Committee

also maintains a policy that prohibits the Company from hiring the independent auditor's personnel, if such person is being hired in a "financial reporting oversight role" as defined by the PCAOB and such person also participated in the current annual audit, or the immediately preceding annual audit of our financial statements.

Audit Committee Report

The Board has the ultimate authority for effective corporate governance, including oversight of the management of Realogy. The Audit Committee assists the Board in fulfilling its responsibilities by overseeing the accounting and financial reporting processes of Realogy, the audits of Realogy's consolidated financial statements and internal controls over financial reporting, and the performance of Realogy's internal audit function.

The Audit Committee is comprised of five Directors, each of whom meets the independence standards of the NYSE and the SEC. Four members of the Audit Committee have been designated by the Board as "audit committee financial experts" and one of these four, Michael J. Williams, has extensive industry-related experience. The fifth member, Enrique Silva, has extensive executive leadership experience in franchise operations.

Specific responsibilities of the Audit Committee are set forth in its Charter adopted by the Board. The Audit Committee reviews the Charter annually and recommends changes, as appropriate, to the Board to reflect the evolving role of the Audit Committee. The Charter is available on the Governance page of our website at www.realogy.com.

The Audit Committee is directly responsible for the appointment, compensation, retention and oversight of Realogy's independent registered public accounting firm and approves in advance all services to be performed by Realogy's independent registered public accounting firm in accordance with SEC rules.

As part of its engagement of Realogy's independent registered public accounting firm, the Audit Committee evaluates the independent registered public accounting firm's performance, taking into consideration multiple factors, including institutional knowledge of the Company's business and operations, industry knowledge and global reach as it relates to where the Company conducts business, management's and the Audit Committee's evaluation of expertise and the quality of past performance, the



			76

Table of C o n tents

appropriateness of fees, and auditor independence. The Audit Committee, with the assistance of Realogy management, also is responsible for the selection of the lead partner of the independent registered public accounting firm, evaluates the performance of the lead partner and the other key personnel on the engagement, and ensures that partner rotation practices are in compliance with all applicable SEC rules and other related laws and regulations.

The Audit Committee has discussed with PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP matters required to be discussed by applicable standards and rules of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board ("PCAOB") and the SEC. The Audit Committee has received from PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP the written disclosures required by applicable standards and rules of the PCAOB and the SEC regarding PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP's communications with the Audit Committee concerning independence, and has discussed with PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP the independence of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP. The Audit Committee has considered whether the permissible non-audit services provided by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP to Realogy are compatible with PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP maintaining its independence.

The Audit Committee has satisfied itself as to the independence of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP.

The Audit Committee relies on the expertise and knowledge of management, the internal auditors and the independent auditors in carrying out its oversight responsibilities. Management is responsible for Realogy's financial reporting process, including its system of internal controls, and for the preparation of consolidated financial statements in compliance with generally accepted accounting principles and applicable laws and regulations. In addition, management is responsible for establishing, maintaining and assessing the effectiveness of Realogy's internal control over financial reporting. PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, Realogy's independent registered public accounting firm, is responsible for performing an independent audit of Realogy's consolidated financial statements and expressing an opinion on such financial statements as well as on the effectiveness of Realogy's internal control over financial reporting. The Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed Realogy's 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K, including the audited consolidated financial statements of Realogy for the year ended December 31, 2021, with management and with representatives of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP. It is not the Audit Committee's duty or responsibility to conduct auditing or accounting reviews or procedures.

During 2021, the Audit Committee actively fulfilled its duties and responsibilities as outlined in its Charter. Specifically, the Audit Committee, among other actions:

▪approved in advance all services to be performed by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP in accordance with SEC rules;

▪reviewed and discussed with management and PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP Realogy's quarterly earnings, press releases, consolidated financial statements and related periodic reports filed with the SEC;

▪reviewed with the CEO, the CFO and other members of management, the processes that management has in place with respect to evaluating the accuracy and fair presentation of its financial statements and the effectiveness of Realogy's disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls over financial reporting;

▪reviewed with management and PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP the Company's use of non-GAAP financial measures in its filings with the SEC as well as its other investor communications;

▪reviewed with management and PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP management's assessment of the effectiveness of Realogy's internal control over financial reporting and PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP's opinion about the effectiveness of Realogy's internal controls over financial reporting;

▪considered and discussed with management, the Head of Internal Audit and PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, as appropriate, the audit scopes and plans of both PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP and the internal auditor;

▪in coordination with the full Board and its applicable committees, provided oversight on capital allocation and liquidity matters;

▪received reports on the Company's information security environment from the Company's Chief Information Security Officer, including with respect to data privacy and information technology initiatives as well as the internal and external cyber threat environment;

Table of C o n tents

▪reviewed the integrated risk assessment performed by the internal audit, enterprise risk management, and ethics & compliance teams;

▪approved the Company's annual ethics and compliance program and received quarterly updates on the progress of the program from the Company's Chief Ethics & Compliance Officer, who has a dotted-line reporting relationship to the Audit Committee;

▪conferred regularly with the General Counsel on legal matters;

Table of C o n tents

We are not aware of any other matters that will be brought before the stockholders for a vote at the Annual Meeting.

Even if you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, you are encouraged to vote by proxy.

If you are a stockholder of record, also known as a registered stockholder, you may vote by proxy in one of the following ways:

▪by telephone by calling the toll-free number 800-690-6903 (have your Notice or proxy card in hand when you call);

▪by Internet before the Annual Meeting at www.proxyvote.com (have your Notice or proxy card in hand when you access the website);

Have your Notice, proxy card or voting instruction form available when you access the Annual Meeting Website.

Who may vote and how many votes does a stockholder have?

All holders of record of our common stock as of the close of business on March 9, 2022 (the record date) are entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. Each stockholder will have one vote for each share of our common stock held as of the close of business on the record date. As of the record date, 118,118,160 shares of our common stock were outstanding. There is no cumulative voting and the holders of our common stock vote together as a single class.

How many votes must be present to hold the Annual Meeting?

The holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of our common stock entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting (also known as a quorum) must be present, in person or by proxy, at the meeting in order to constitute a quorum necessary to conduct the meeting. Abstentions and broker non-votes will be counted for the purposes of establishing a quorum at the Annual Meeting. We urge you to vote by proxy even if you plan to attend the Annual Meeting so that we will know as soon as possible that a quorum has been achieved.

A broker non-vote occurs when a broker or other nominee submits a proxy that states that the broker does not vote for some or all of the proposals because the broker has not received instructions from the beneficial owner on how to vote on the proposals and does not have discretionary authority to vote in the absence of instructions.

How many votes are required to approve each proposal?

Election of Directors (Proposal 1): The election of Directors at the Annual Meeting requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast with respect to a Director nominee to elect that nominee. This means that the number of votes cast "for" each Director nominee must exceed the number of votes cast "against" that nominee. Any abstentions or broker non-votes are not counted as votes cast "for" or "against" that nominee's election and will have no effect on the election of Directors. (A plurality voting



			81

Table of C o n tents

standard would apply in the event of a contested Director election.)

For information on our Board's Director Resignation Policy, see "Proposal 1: Election of Directors—Stockholder Voting for Election of Directors" on page 28.

Advisory Vote on Executive Compensation (Proposal 2): As this agenda item is a non-binding, advisory vote, there is no "required vote" that would constitute approval. We value the opinions expressed by our stockholders in these advisory votes, and our Compensation Committee, which is responsible for overseeing and administering our executive compensation programs, will consider the outcome of these votes when designing our compensation programs and making future compensation decisions for our named executive officers. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of this proposal.

Ratification of Independent Auditor (Proposal 3): This proposal requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares represented at the Annual Meeting in person or by proxy and entitled to vote on the proposal for approval. Abstentions will have the effect of a vote against Proposal 3. Broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of this proposal.

Will my shares be voted if I do not return my proxy?

If your shares are registered directly in your name, your shares will not be voted if you do not vote before the Annual Meeting via the Internet, by telephone, or by returning your proxy or via the Internet during the Annual Meeting.

If your shares are registered in the name of a bank, broker or other nominee and you do not give your broker or other nominee specific voting instructions for your shares, under rules of The New York Stock Exchange, or the NYSE, your record holder has discretion to vote your shares on proposals relating to what are deemed to be routine matters, which include the ratification of our independent auditor, and does not have discretion to vote on proposals relating to what are deemed to be non-routine matters, which include the other matters to be presented for vote at the Annual Meeting. Your broker will not be permitted to vote on your behalf on these non-routine matters unless you provide specific instructions by completing and returning the voting instruction or proxy card or following the instructions provided to you to vote your shares by telephone or the Internet. For your vote to be counted, you will need to communicate your voting decisions to your broker, bank or other financial institution before the date of the Annual Meeting.

Can I change or revoke my vote?

You may change or revoke your proxy at any time prior to the voting at the Annual Meeting by submitting a later dated proxy, by entering new instructions by Internet or telephone, by giving timely written notice of such change or revocation to the Corporate Secretary or by attending and voting by Internet during the Annual Meeting.

How are proxies solicited?

Morrow Sodali LLC has been retained to advise and assist in soliciting proxies at a cost of $8,000 plus reasonable expenses. Proxies may also be solicited by our Directors, officers and employees personally, by mail, phone or electronic means. We will pay all costs relating to the solicitation of proxies. We will also reimburse brokers, custodians, nominees and fiduciaries for reasonable expenses in forwarding proxy materials to beneficial owners of our stock.

What is "householding"?

We have adopted a procedure approved by the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, called householding. Under this procedure, stockholders of record who have the same address and have not previously requested electronic delivery of proxy materials will receive a single envelope containing the Notice (or, if applicable, the proxy statement and annual report) for each holder having that address. This procedure will reduce our printing costs and postage fees.

If, in the future, you do not wish to participate in householding and prefer to receive your Notice (or, if applicable, the proxy statement and annual report) in a separate envelope, please contact our transfer agent, Computershare in writing 462 S. 4th Street, Suite 1600, Louisville, KY, 40202 or via their toll free number (800) 962-4284.

Beneficial stockholders may request information about householding from their banks, brokers or other holders of record.

ANNEX A

NON-GAAP DEFINITIONS & RECONCILIATIONS

Operating EBITDA is defined by us as net income (loss) before depreciation and amortization, interest expense, net (other than relocation services interest for securitization assets and securitization obligations), income taxes, and other items that are not core to the operating activities of the Company such as restructuring charges, former parent legacy items, gains or losses on the early extinguishment of debt, impairments, gains or losses on discontinued operations and gains or losses on the sale of investments or other assets. Operating EBITDA is our primary non-GAAP measure.

We present Operating EBITDA because we believe it is useful as a supplemental measure in evaluating the performance of our operating businesses and provides greater transparency into our results of operations. Our management, including our chief operating decision maker, uses Operating EBITDA as a factor in evaluating the performance of our business. Operating EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income or other statement of operations data prepared in accordance with GAAP.

We believe Operating EBITDA facilitates company-to-company operating performance comparisons by backing out potential differences caused by variations in capital structures (affecting net interest expense), taxation, the age and book depreciation of facilities (affecting relative depreciation expense) and the amortization of intangibles, as well as other items that are not core to the operating activities of the Company such as restructuring charges, gains or losses on the early extinguishment of debt, former parent legacy items, impairments, gains or losses on discontinued operations and gains or losses on the sale of investments or other assets, which may vary for different companies for reasons unrelated to operating performance. We further believe that Operating EBITDA is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in their evaluation of companies, many of which present an Operating EBITDA measure when reporting their results.

Operating EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider Operating EBITDA either in isolation or as a substitute for analyzing our results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are:

•this measure does not reflect changes in, or cash required for, our working capital needs;

•this measure does not reflect our interest expense (except for interest related to our securitization obligations), or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on our debt;

•this measure does not reflect our income tax expense or the cash requirements to pay our taxes;

•this measure does not reflect historical cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;

•although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often require replacement in the future, and this measure does not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements; and

•other companies may calculate this measure differently so they may not be comparable.

Adjusted Net Income (Loss) is defined by us as net income (loss) before: (a) mark-to-market interest rate swap adjustments, whose fair value is subject to movements in LIBOR and the forward yield curve and therefore are subject to significant fluctuations; (b) former parent legacy items, which pertain to liabilities of the former parent for matters prior to mid-2006 and are non-operational in nature; (c) restructuring charges as a result of initiatives currently in progress; (d) impairments; (e) the (gain) loss on the early extinguishment of debt that results from refinancing and deleveraging debt initiatives and (f) the tax effect of the foregoing adjustments. We present Adjusted net income (loss) because we believe this measure is useful as a supplemental measure in evaluating the performance of our operating businesses and provide greater transparency into our operating results.

Free Cash Flow is defined by us as net income (loss) attributable to Realogy before income tax expense (benefit), net of payments, interest expense, net, cash interest payments, depreciation and amortization, capital expenditures, restructuring costs and former parent legacy costs (benefits), net of payments, impairments, (gain) loss on the early extinguishment of debt, working capital adjustments and relocation receivables (assets), net of change in securitization obligations. We use Free Cash Flow in our internal evaluation of operating effectiveness and decisions regarding the allocation of resources, as well as measuring the Company's ability to generate cash. Since Free Cash Flow can be viewed as both a performance measure and a cash flow measure, the Company has provided a reconciliation to both net income attributable to Realogy Holdings and net cash provided by operating activities. Free Cash Flow is not defined by GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to net income (loss), net cash provided by (used in) operating, investing and financing activities or other financial data prepared in accordance with GAAP or as an indicator of the Company’s operating performance or liquidity. Free Cash Flow may differ from similarly titled measures presented by other companies.

Net Debt Leverage Ratio is defined as net corporate debt (excluding securitizations) divided by EBITDA calculated on a Pro Forma Basis, as defined in our Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of March 5, 2013, as amended from time to time (the "Senior Secured Credit Agreement").

Market Share is measured in a comparison to the transaction volume of all existing homesale transactions in the U.S. as reported by the National Association of Realtors (NAR), regardless of whether an agent or broker was involved in the transaction. We measure our market share transaction volume by the ratio of (a) homesale transaction volume (sides times average price) in which we and our franchisees participate to (b) NAR's existing homesale transaction volume (regardless of whether an agent or broker was involved in the transaction)—calculated by doubling the number of existing homesale transactions reported by NAR to account for both the buy and sell sides of a transaction multiplied by NAR's average sales price.

Non-cash impairments for the year ended December 31, 2020 include a goodwill impairment charge of $413 million related to Realogy Brokerage Group; an impairment charge of $30 million related to Realogy Franchise Group's trademarks; $133 million of reserves recorded during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 (while Cartus Relocation Services was held for sale) to reduce the net assets to the estimated proceeds; a goodwill impairment charge of $22 million related to Cartus Relocation Services; an impairment charge of $34 million related to Cartus Relocation Services' trademarks; and other asset impairments of $50 million primarily related to lease asset impairments.

Non-cash impairments for the year ended December 31, 2019 include a goodwill impairment charge of $237 million related to Realogy Brokerage Group, a $22 million reduction to record net assets held for sale at the lower of carrying value or fair value, less costs to sell, for Cartus Relocation Services which was presented as held for sale at December 31, 2019 and $12 million of other impairment charges primarily related to lease asset impairments.

(c)Former parent legacy items and Loss (gain) on the early extinguishment of debt are recorded in Corporate and Other. During the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company recorded a net gain on the early extinguishment of debt of $5 million which consisted of a $10 million gain as a result of the repurchase of Senior Notes completed in the third quarter of 2019, partially offset by a $5 million loss as a result of the refinancing transactions in the first quarter of 2019.

Franchisee sales activity is comprised of new franchise agreements as well as growth through acquisitions and independent sales agent recruitment by existing franchisees with our assistance. We have made a number of assumptions in calculating such estimates and there can be no assurance that we would have generated the projected levels of Operating EBITDA had we owned the acquired entities or entered into the franchise contracts as of January 1, 2021, January 1, 2020 and January 1, 2019, respectively.

(g)Incremental borrowing costs incurred as a result of the securitization facilities refinancing for the twelve months ended December 31, 2021, December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.

ANNEX B

CALCULATIONS OF CERTAIN COMPENSATION MEASURES

Plan Operating EBITDA Definition and Calculation under the 2021 Executive Incentive Plan

Plan Operating EBITDA for fiscal year 2021 is defined by us as Operating EBITDA adjusted for the impact of foreign exchange movements, pension expense that differs from the 2021 Budget, the impact of natural disasters (net of insurance reimbursements), the impact of certain legal and regulatory matters that differs from the 2021 Budget, and other items determined in the discretion of the Compensation Committee, including, but not limited to, unusual, non-recurring or extraordinary corporate transactions (including, but not limited to divestitures), unanticipated legal or regulatory developments, or changes in accounting principles provided that any adjustment due to changes in accounting principles would be made to both the Plan Operating EBITDA target goal and the calculation of Plan Operating EBITDA.

Set forth in the table below is the calculation of Plan Operating EBITDA under the 2021 EIP:


	Year Ended December 31, 2021
Operating EBITDA	$	902
Adjustment for impact of foreign exchange movements	—
Adjustment for pension expense that differs from 2021 Budget	(1.5)
Adjustment for impact of natural disasters (net of insurance reimbursements)	—
Adjustment for unusual, non-recurring or extraordinary corporate transactions	(1.5)
Plan Operating EBITDA	$	899

Cumulative Free Cash Flow under the 2019 to 2021 Performance Share Units

Neither the Cumulative Free Cash Flow target goal or actual achievement against the target goal take into account capital expenditures during the performance period. See page A-5 - "Reconciliation of Net income (loss) to Free Cash Flow for the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019 (in millions)." Cumulative Free Cash Flow achievement for the 2019 to 2021 Performance Share Units was calculated by increasing the Free Cash Flow total for each year by the amount shown on the capital expenditures line.
