A Letter from our Chief Executive Officer

March 20, 2019

Dear Stockholders:

After completing my first year as Realogy CEO, I believe our company is in a strong position for the future even as we and the industry weather current challenges in the residential real estate market. When I joined, I had beliefs about the industry that have become more evident over this past year. I have witnessed firsthand that despite all the talk of technology disruption in real estate, not much has actually changed yet to benefit the agent or the consumer. This excites me as it means the opportunity for technology- and data-driven innovation is there for the taking by Realogy. Second, it is fashionable to talk about disintermediating agents, but it’s clear from 2018 that the agent maintains a critical role in the future of real estate, especially when they are armed with great technology and data. I have confidence that Realogy, with our industry leading market position, technology and data scale, great brands and cash flow generation, is poised to make a real difference for affiliated agents and franchise owners as we execute our strategy to drive results.

In 2018, we began moving fast with new technology offerings, new agent recruiting practices, new products for agents, new brands, new data analytics, new partnerships, and new talent. Even with the market downturn we and the industry saw in the latter part of 2018, we remain laser-focused on continuing to execute in the year ahead.

Strategy

Our business strategy is focused on organic growth driven by technology and data innovation. We are serving agents to enhance their productivity and effectiveness as we improve our value proposition. Through the power of our national scale, well-known brands, unparalleled access to data, and investments in technology, I believe we will unlock new value for our affiliated independent sales agents, our franchise owners and ultimately, our stockholders.

Technology and Data

We are leveraging our scale and market leading position to help agents become more efficient and

productive with great technology and relevant data. We have delivered new technology products to serve affiliated agents. We have rolled out an enterprise analytics platform that is using Realogy’s incredible access to historic and national data to help affiliated agents and franchise owners be more effective. We are building a flexible open technology architecture to allow affiliated agents and franchisees to use our tech offerings and seamlessly integrate third-party technology. We have partnered with leading technology companies as well as cutting-edge startups to develop better services and high value leads for affiliated agents. And finally, we have launched new productivity and marketing platforms within our company-owned business to help agents drive growth and be more successful. Realogy is well-positioned to bring real change to the industry.

Talent

My management team is poised to accelerate our transformation and drive results. Important 2018 changes included recruiting Dave Gordan as Realogy Chief Technology Officer; promoting Ryan Gorman as president and CEO of NRT LLC; broadening the responsibilities of John Peyton as president and CEO of Realogy Franchise Group; and hiring Katrina Helmkamp as president and CEO of Cartus, our global relocation subsidiary.

I am proud of the strong talent here at Realogy who serve the approximately 300,000 independent sales agents in our company owned and franchise brokerages worldwide. We are relentlessly focused on developing our existing talent and recruiting great new talent.

This past summer, we were certified for the first time as a great place to work by the independent analysts at Great Place to Work^®. A few weeks ago, Ethisphere^® Institute, a leading international business ethics think-tank, once again recognized Realogy as one of the World's Most Ethical Companies—an honor we have received each of the past eight years.

In closing, we are committed to moving fast to serve our affiliated agents while continuing to operate with

integrity. On behalf of our Board of Directors, my senior leadership team and our employees, we 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 20, 2019

To Our Stockholders:

This has been a year of important and needed change at Realogy Holding Corp. as our new CEO, Ryan Schneider has charted a new course for the company with the support of your Board of Directors. In Ryan’s letter, he shared the major undertakings underway at the Company and particularly our strengthening of our leadership team and talent throughout the organization.

In parallel to the important changes undertaken by management, the Board has been focused on four key areas:


▪	Investor Outreach;


▪	Continuation of Board Refreshment and Alignment of Board Committees to Support Strategy;


▪	Strategy; and


▪	Capital Allocation.

Let me provide you with a recap of our 2018 accomplishments in each of these areas.

Investor Outreach

In 2018, we prioritized investor outreach so that we on the Board could hear directly from our investors. We reached out to holders of more than 95% of our outstanding shares, meeting with approximately 74%. I personally met with substantially all of the stockholders who accepted our invitation and was accompanied by Duncan Niederauer, the Chair of our Compensation Committee, at several of these meetings.

Our discussions centered on such topics as executive leadership changes, strategy execution, governance, capital allocation, enterprise risk management and executive compensation. We had a goal to better understand stockholder perspectives on governance and executive compensation. Given the feedback we received, the Compensation Committee incorporated changes into the 2019 executive compensation program and proxy statement disclosure, which you’ll see further outlined in this document. We also increased the stock ownership guidelines for the Board and executive management.

From a governance perspective, we considered and then determined to adopt proxy access to give our long-term stockholders the ability to nominate directors at annual meetings. We are also asking stockholders to approve the elimination of the supermajority voting provisions related to the amendment of our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws at the 2019 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

Continuation of Board Refreshment and Alignment of Board Committees to Support Strategy

In my first year serving as Independent Chairman of the Board, I have had the pleasure of working closely with Ryan as both an adviser to the CEO and as a liaison to our Board. While Ryan focuses on executing our strategy and managing the business, day-to-day, I have been able to lead the Board, which includes providing counsel and independent oversight of management. I am fortunate to be able to work with a talented, capable and experienced board.

This year, we continued to focus on Board Refreshment and Diversity—with a focus on new talent to support Realogy’s strategic direction. In August 2018, we appointed Enrique (Rick) Silva, CEO and president of Checkers Drive-In Restaurants, Inc., as an independent Director. Rick brings to the Board a strong background in franchise operations and business strategy, an important addition given our significant multi-brand residential real estate franchise segment. He serves as a member of the Audit Committee.

In January 2019, a proven leader in the deployment of Artificial Intelligence and Big Data, Bryson Koehler, Chief Technology Officer at Equifax, joined our Board of Directors. Bryson’s deep experience in big data, cloud computing and analytics adds critical leadership as we look to leverage Realogy’s considerable scale and unprecedented access to data to help our affiliated agents and franchise owners grow their businesses. Bryson is a member of the newly formed Technology and Data Committee discussed below.

With these appointments, the Realogy Board now consists of 10 directors, nine of whom are classified as Independent Directors for purposes of the listing standards of the New York Stock Exchange. We continue to prioritize diversity at the Board level with

Table of Contents

approximately one-third of our Board being women and one-fifth comprised of minorities. Our Board also has diverse business experience, as detailed in the proxy statement.

Given the speed of digital transformation, including our priority to arm affiliated agents and franchisees with better technology and data, we formed the Technology and Data Committee, led by Chris Terrill. Serving as an independent Director since July 2016, Chris is the former CEO of ANGI Homeservices and an internet veteran who has specialized in consumer online subscription and marketplace business models with top-tier brands.

Strategy

In 2018, we worked closely with Ryan and his management team to operationalize the Company’s strategic direction. We received regular strategy updates during our quarterly Board meetings as well as focused exclusively on strategy during an annual two-day meeting. We remain actively engaged in the business strategy throughout the year.

Capital Allocation

We regularly consider the best use of our capital and seek to invest in Realogy’s growth, reduce our debt leverage and return value to our stockholders. We have lowered our shares outstanding by approximately 23% from 146,752,841 outstanding at the commencement of our share repurchase program on February 24, 2016 to 113,485,998 on February 22, 2019 and have declared a quarterly dividend of $0.09 each quarter since the commencement of our dividend program in August 2016.

I remain confident in Ryan and his team as they focus on Realogy’s long-term strategic priorities and ultimately, unlocking additional stockholder value.

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

Independent Chairman of the Board

2018 INVESTOR OUTREACH PROGRAM

We are committed to seeking out and integrating our stockholders’ perspectives into our deliberations and we believe that regular communication with our stockholders is necessary in order to ensure thoughtful and informed consideration of evolving corporate governance and executive compensation best practices.

In the spring and fall of 2018, we engaged with our stockholders and, based on their input, the Compensation Committee made a number of changes to our executive compensation program.

In addition, based on the investor feedback we received, the Board determined to take the actions outlined in this proxy statement, including the submission of Proposal 4 for stockholder approval at the Annual Meeting.

In total, we reached out to stockholders representing over 95% of our outstanding shares and held in person meetings or calls with holders of approximately 55% in the spring and approximately 60% in the fall/winter of 2018 through the winter of 2019. Combined we met with holders of approximately 74% of our outstanding shares (in many instances we met with a stockholder more than once).

Michael Williams, Independent Chairman of the Board, met with substantially all of our stockholders who accepted our invitation and Duncan Niederauer, Chair of the Compensation Committee, joined him on several occasions.

The feedback from these important sessions with our investors was reviewed and discussed with the full Board.

When Stockholders Experience Gains or Losses,

Compensation Follows the Same Trajectory

Our rigorous performance-based program is designed so that CEO and executive officer realizable target direct compensation declines during periods of stockholder loss.

As illustrated in the following graphs, realizable compensation losses by our CEO and other named executive officers were aligned with those experienced by our stockholders.



Decline in Realizable Value of CEO Target Direct Compensation (Oct. 23, 2017 to Dec. 31, 2018) vs. Realogy Stock Price
		Since he commenced employment, our CEO's realizable target direct compensation has declined 60% compared to a 55% decline in our stock price. This chart shows: Ÿ The decline in value of the CEO's target direct compensation from his date of hire to the end of 2018 compared to the "realizable value" of that compensation at December 31, 2018, and Ÿ The decline in our stock price between October 23, 2017 to December 31, 2018. Realizable value means base salary, earned cash incentive award plus "realizable equity value." Realizable equity value means our 2018 closing stock price times the sum of (i) RSUs granted since October 23rd (including Mr. Schneider's 2017 inducement award); (ii) projected performance share units (based on estimated performance under the 2018-2020 PSU cycle) and (iii) accrued dividend equivalent units, plus (iv) any in-the-money value attributable to options at the end of 2018.



Decline in Realized Value of 2016-2018 Performance Share Units Awards vs. Realogy Stock Price
There was an 87% decline in the aggregate value of performance share units, or PSUs, granted to NEOs for the 2016-2018 performance cycle compared to the 60% decline in our stock price since January 4, 2016. This chart shows: Ÿ The decline from the grant date fair value of the 2016-2018 Performance Share Unit (PSU) awards to the market value of the shares earned under the PSU awards as of the December 31, 2018 conclusion of the performance period, and Ÿ The decline in our stock price during the PSU performance period of January 1, 2016 to December 31, 2018. As noted on the prior page, the 2016-2018 PSU awards paid out at: Ÿ 0% for Relative Total Stockholder Return, and Ÿ 55% for Cumulative Free Cash Flow

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Why did I receive a notice in the mail regarding the Internet availability of proxy materials instead of a full set of proxy materials?

We provide access to our proxy materials over the Internet. On or about March 20, 2019, we mailed to our stockholders a "Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials" (the "Notice") telling them how to access and review the information contained in the proxy materials and how to vote their proxies over the Internet. You will not receive a printed copy of the proxy materials in the mail unless you request the materials by following the instructions included in the Notice. In addition, by following the instructions included in the Notice, stockholders may request to receive proxy materials in printed form by mail or electronically by e-mail on an ongoing basis. Your election to receive proxy materials in printed form by mail or by e-mail will remain in effect until you terminate it.

How can I get electronic access to the proxy materials?

The Notice will provide you with instructions regarding how to view our proxy materials on the Internet. You can view the proxy materials for the Annual Meeting on the Internet at www.edocumentview.com/rlgy.

We are not aware of any other matters that will be brought before the stockholders for a vote at the Annual Meeting. If any other matters are properly presented for a vote, the individuals named as proxies will have discretionary authority, to the extent permitted by law, to vote on such matters according to their best judgment.

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 12, 2019 (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, 114,197,373 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.

Table of Contents

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 do I vote?

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 800-652-VOTE (8683) (have your Notice or proxy card in hand when you call);


▪	by Internet at www.investorvote.com/rlgy (have your Notice or proxy card in hand when you access the website);


▪	if you have requested and received a printed copy of the annual meeting materials, by returning the enclosed proxy card (signed and dated) in the envelope provided; or


▪	in person at the Annual Meeting (please see below under "How do I attend the Annual Meeting?").

If your shares are registered in the name of a bank, broker or other nominee, follow the proxy instructions on the form you receive from the bank, broker or other nominee. You may also vote in person at the Annual Meeting (please see below under "How do I attend the Annual Meeting?").

When you vote by proxy, your shares will be voted according to your instructions. If you sign your proxy card, vote by Internet or by telephone, but do not specify how you want your shares to be voted, they will be voted as the Board recommends.

Our proxy tabulator, Computershare Trust Company, N.A., must receive any proxy that will not be delivered in person at the Annual Meeting by 11:59 p.m., Eastern Daylight Time on Tuesday, April 30, 2019.

How does the Board recommend that I vote?

The Board recommends the following votes:


▪	FOR the election of each of the Director nominees;


▪	FOR the advisory vote to approve our executive compensation program;


▪	FOR the advisory vote on executive compensation to be held EVERY YEAR;


▪	FOR the amendment of our Certificate of Incorporation to eliminate the supermajority voting requirements to amend the Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws;


▪	FOR the amendment of our Certificate of Incorporation to eliminate outdated language related to Board classification; and


▪	FOR the ratification of the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP to serve as our independent registered public accounting firm for fiscal year 2019.

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

Under the Director Resignation Policy, an incumbent Director who does not receive the requisite majority of the votes cast for his or her election in an uncontested election will tender his or her resignation to the Board. Pursuant to the Director Resignation Policy, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will then recommend to the Board, and the Board will decide, the action to be taken with respect to the tendered resignation. In making its decision, the Board may consider any information, factors and alternatives it considers relevant. The Board will act on the recommendation of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee within 90 days following the date of the stockholders’ meeting at which the election of the Director occurred.

Advisory Votes on Executive Compensation and Frequency of Vote on Executive Compensation (Proposals 2 and 3): As these agenda items are non-binding, advisory votes, there is no "required vote" that would constitute approval. We value the opinions expressed by our stockholders in these




	9

Table of Contents

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 these proposals.

Votes to Amend our Certificate of Incorporation (Proposals 4 and 5): These proposals require the affirmative vote of the holders of at least 75% of all of the shares entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. Any abstentions or broker non-votes will have the same effect as votes cast "against" the proposals.

Ratification of Independent Auditor (Proposal 6): 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 will be required for approval. Abstentions will have the effect of a vote against this proposal. 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 over the Internet, by telephone, by returning your proxy or by ballot at 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.

How do I attend the Annual Meeting?

If you have requested and received a printed copy of the proxy materials, you should bring the enclosed Admission Ticket to gain admission to the Annual Meeting. If you received a Notice or voting

instructions and will not be requesting a printed copy of the proxy materials, please bring the Notice or voting instructions with you as your Admission Ticket. You must bring with you photo identification such as a valid driver's license or passport for purposes of personal identification.

If your shares are held in the name of a broker, trust, bank or other nominee, you will also need to bring a proxy, letter or recent account statement from that broker, trust, bank or nominee that confirms that you are the beneficial owner of those shares.

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 the Annual Meeting and voting in person and requesting that your prior proxy not be used.

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 Computershare, 462 S. 4^th Street, Suite 1600, Louisville, KY, 40202.

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

GOVERNANCE OF THE COMPANY



2018 INVESTOR OUTREACH PROGRAM: Corporate Governance Topics

During our 2018 Investor Outreach Program, our Board noted that several of our stockholders support certain corporate governance initiatives. Specific corporate governance topics considered included: the elimination of supermajority voting provisions for amendment of the Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws, market-standard proxy access bylaw provisions and the right of holders of 25% or more of our outstanding stock to call a special meeting of stockholders.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and the Board reviewed each of these topics and, after careful consideration, determined to take the actions described below:


▪	Adopt a proxy access provision in our Bylaws. On February 25, 2019, our Board determined to amend our Bylaws to allow for:


▪	a stockholder, or a group of up to 20 stockholders,


▪	owning an amount of shares that constitutes 3% or more of our outstanding common stock,


▪	that has been continuously held for at least three years,


▪	to nominate and include in our proxy materials director nominees constituting up to the greater of two nominees or 20% of the Board, in all cases, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Bylaws.

To learn more, go to Stockholder Proposals and Nominations for Director—Director Nominations for Inclusion in Proxy Materials (Proxy Access) on page 93.


▪	Recommend that our stockholders vote at the Annual Meeting to approve amendments to our Certificate of Incorporation that would eliminate the supermajority voting provisions related to amendment of our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws.

To review this stockholder proposal, see: Proposal 4: Approval of Amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation to Eliminate the Supermajority Voting Requirements to Amend the Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws on page 85.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and the Board intend to further consider the right of stockholders to call special meetings, including seeking specific input from our investors. While the Board favors corporate governance provisions that promote stockholder rights and greater Board accountability, the Board determined further discussion with our investors was warranted in light of, among other factors, the significant time and expense required to hold a special meeting, including the preparation and distribution of disclosure documents and the diversion of time and resources from the Board's and management's focus on our business.




		A key objective of our investor outreach was to listen to our stockholders and better understand their perspectives on our executive compensation program.

See Compensation Discussion and Analysis—2018 Investor Outreach Program: Executive Compensation Topics on page 39 for a discussion of the feedback our Board received from our investors on our executive compensation program during the 2018 Investor Outreach Program and the changes the Compensation Committee incorporated into our 2019 executive compensation program and proxy statement as a result of what we heard from our investors.

Strong corporate governance is an integral part of our core values and practices. Please visit our website at www.realogy.com under the Governance page for the Board's Corporate Governance Guidelines, Director Independence Criteria, the Code of Ethics for Employees, the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics for Directors, the Board-approved charters for the Audit, Compensation and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committees and related information. These guidelines and charters may be obtained by writing to our Corporate Secretary at Realogy Holdings Corp., 175 Park Avenue, Madison, New Jersey 07940.

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 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 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 that 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.

	14

Table of Contents

In addition, individual Directors arrange periodic visits to the Company's offices where they meet with members of management to gain a deeper understanding of Company operations. Directors have also attended conferences and other strategic events.

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 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 appropriate 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.

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 providing feedback to the CEO from the other members of the Board after each meeting of the Board;


▪	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.

Strategic Planning

Our Board has spent a substantial amount of time working with management to refine Realogy's mid- and long-term strategic planning process. In addition the Board spends significant attention to our near-term objectives, such as efforts focused on market position, growth and improving operating effectiveness.

The Board receives updates on our strategy at each regular Board meeting and holds an annual two-day meeting focused exclusively on strategy. These strategic meetings focus on core aspects of our business as well as our competitive position in light of emerging and existing competitive trends.

We are cognizant of the changing competitive landscape and the growing influence of technology on the real estate industry, and our strategic vision for the Company has been underscored by a commitment to being on the leading edge of innovation and technology. To further this strategic focus, management and the Board have:


▪	formed the Technology and Data Committee to oversee the role of technology and data in executing Realogy's business strategy, in August 2018;


▪	added Bryson Koehler, an experienced technology executive, to the Board of Directors, in January 2019; and


▪	hired new executive talent, including a Chief Technology Officer, in January 2018.

Table of Contents

Succession Planning

The Board is responsible for the development, implementation and periodic review of a succession plan for our Chief Executive Officer and each member of the senior leadership team, which we call the Executive Committee. The Executive Committee includes the Chief Financial Officer, the Chief Executive Officer of each of the four business units, the Chief Technology Officer, the Chief Human Resources Officer and the General Counsel. The Board works with the Compensation Committee (and, as appropriate, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee) with respect to the Company's programs and plans in the areas of talent development and succession planning and the November 2018 meeting of the Board were focused on these areas.

In addition to the successful recruitment of Mr. Schneider in October 2017, Mr. Schneider, in consultation with, and approval by, the Board, made a number of key changes to the Executive Committee in 2018, including those described in the Proxy Summary section of the Compensation Discussion and Analysis.

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.

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, comprised of key members of management, meets regularly to identify, monitor, mitigate, and manage the risks the Company faces. Our Chief Ethics & Compliance Officer and Chief Audit Executive reports directly to the Audit Committee and facilitates our ERM program.

On a regular basis, management presents to the Board, or the applicable Board committees, a comprehensive review of the Company’s ERM processes. The presentations include a review of the Company's risk assessment and risk management policies 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 2018, these topics included the Company's potential exposure to risks related to capital structure, third-party relationships, cybersecurity, strategy as well as 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 act upon opportunities intended to 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, information technology (including cybersecurity risks) and business strategy, including measures management has taken and will take to mitigate risks.

The Audit Committee is charged with reviewing our policies 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. Our Compensation Committee is responsible for overseeing the management of risks relating to our executive compensation. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee oversees the management of risks associated with the independence of the Board, the reputation of the Company and potential conflicts of interest. 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.

Table of Contents

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 and 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 Human Resources 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 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 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.

Executive Sessions of Independent Directors

The Independent Directors meet regularly without any members of management present. During 2018, 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 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.

Director Attendance at Annual Meeting of Stockholders

As provided in the Board's Corporate Governance Guidelines, Directors are expected to attend our annual meeting of stockholders absent exceptional cause. All of our then-serving Directors attended the 2018 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, other than Mr. Alvarez who did not stand for reelection.

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




		Ethisphere^® Institute, the leading international business ethics think-tank, has recognized us as one of the World's Most Ethical Companies in each of the past eight years.

Copies of the Code of Conduct 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 Code of Conduct that applies to our CEO, CFO or Chief Accounting Officer.

Compensation of 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 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. See Compensation Discussion & Analysis—Role of Committee, Advisors and Executives in Setting Executive Compensation on page 61 of this proxy statement. The Compensation Committee recommends changes, if any, to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, which in turn makes recommendations to the Board.

In May 2018, the Compensation Committee's independent compensation consultant presented its review of the competitiveness of the compensation paid to independent Directors, advising that such compensation was slightly below median of the peer group. The Compensation Committee determined to recommend that no changes be made Director compensation in 2018.

The Board is subject to stock ownership guidelines for Directors as discussed under Governance of the Company—Independent Director Stock Ownership Guidelines on page 21 pursuant to which the Independent Directors must retain a meaningful portion of their equity compensation.

The following table sets forth the compensation for services payable to our Directors as of December 31, 2018:



	Compensation⁽¹⁾
Annual Director Retainer⁽²⁾	$	215,000
Annual Independent Chairman of the Board Retainer⁽³⁾	400,000
Audit Committee Chair Retainer	20,000
Audit Committee Member Retainer	15,000
Compensation Committee Chair Retainer	15,000
Compensation Committee Member Retainer	10,000
Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee Chair Retainer	10,000
Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee Member Retainer	7,500
Technology and Data Committee Chair Retainer	10,000
Technology and Data Committee Member Retainer	7,500

_______________


(1)	Members of the Board who are also officers or employees of Realogy Holdings or its subsidiaries (e.g., 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)

The annual Director retainer (the "Annual Director Retainer") is paid as follows: $75,000 in cash, payable in quarterly installments, and $140,000 in the form of restricted stock units (rounded up to the nearest share) or, in the case of a new Director appointed in between annual meetings of stockholders, the award is pro-rated for the period between the date of grant and the first anniversary of the immediately preceding annual meeting of stockholders. The restricted stock units vest one year following the date of grant.

The Independent Chairman of the Board is not entitled to receive the Annual Director Retainer, but is entitled to the Annual Independent Chairman Retainer described in footnote (3).


(3)	The Independent Chairman of the Board receives an annual fee comprised of $150,000 in cash, payable in quarterly installments, and $250,000 in the form of restricted stock units, vesting on the first anniversary of the grant date (the "Annual Independent Chairman Retainer"). The Independent Chairman of the Board is not entitled to receive the Annual Director Retainer described in footnote (2).

Cash fees are paid in advance on a quarterly basis on the first day of a quarter and the stock portion of the Annual Retainer and Annual Independent Chairman Retainer is granted immediately following the annual meeting of stockholders (or in the case of Directors joining the Board between annual meetings, on or about the date they are appointed to the Board). Directors may elect to receive fully vested shares of common stock in lieu of cash.

A Director may also 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 settleable 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 accrue dividend

equivalent units, the value of which are factored into the grant date fair value. Generally, a Director's deferral will be paid on a fixed date 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.

Independent Director Stock Ownership Guidelines

During the Board's 2018 Investor Outreach Program, certain stockholders stressed the importance of stock ownership by management and Board members. In order to further strengthen the linkage with stockholders, the Board increased the stock ownership guidelines applicable to each Independent Director, effective November 2018.

As amended, 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 (or $375,000 based upon the current $75,000 cash portion of the annual retainer).

In addition, the Board eliminated vested stock options as counting toward the stock ownership requirement. Shares of Realogy common stock, deferred stock units, and unvested restricted stock units count as stock ownership.




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

Directors must satisfy the increased stock ownership guidelines by November 2019 or, if later, within five years of joining the Board. If the guideline levels are not achieved by the 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.

As of December 31, 2018, Ms. Hailey and Messrs. Niederauer and Williams met the increased ownership guidelines and all other Independent Directors are on track to satisfy the increased stock ownership requirement within the compliance period.

The following table describes each Independent Director's progress toward achievement of the stock ownership guidelines as of December 31, 2018.



Name⁽¹⁾	Shares of Common Stock (#)	RSU Awards (#)⁽²⁾	Deferred Stock Units (#)⁽²⁾	Total Ownership Value ($)⁽³⁾		Deadline for Compliance

Ownership of Our Common Stock

The following table sets forth information regarding the beneficial ownership of our common stock as of March 12, 2019 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 12, 2019, there were 114,197,373 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 prior page 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).

PROPOSAL 1:

ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

Process for Nominating Directors

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of our Board, which we refer to in this "Election of Directors" section as the "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 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 Committee deems appropriate, a third-party search or board advisory firm. To help the 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 Committee and generally one or more other members of the Committee. In addition, candidates complete questionnaires regarding their backgrounds, qualifications, skills and potential conflicts of interest. Candidates are evaluated by the 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 Committee evaluates whether the prospective candidate is qualified to serve as a Director and whether the 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 Committee will consider written recommendations from stockholders for nominees for Director. Recommendations for Director candidates should be submitted to the 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 Director and the candidate's consent to be named as a Director if selected by the Committee and nominated by the Board.

Assuming that appropriate biographical and background material has been provided on a timely basis, the 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 Committee seeks individuals from diverse professional and personal backgrounds who combine a broad spectrum of experience and expertise relevant to Realogy. The Committee takes into account many factors, including but not limited to: the individual's general understanding of the varied disciplines relevant to the




	25

Table of Contents

success of a mid-cap publicly traded company in today's business environment; understanding of the real estate market and/or an understanding of 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 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 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 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 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 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 Committee has the discretion as to whether or not it should accept the resignation.

Diversity. The Guidelines provide that the Committee will consider factors that promote diversity of views and experience when evaluating the suitability of individuals for nomination. While we have no formal written policy regarding what specific factors would create a diversity of views and experience, the 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 in the table on the next page, 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;


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


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


▪	three Directors have significant industry or franchise knowledge;


▪	three Directors are women;


▪	one Director is Hispanic;


▪	one Director is Asian; and


▪	the age range for the Directors is 43 to 68.

Annual Board and Committee Evaluations. The Committee conducts annual evaluations of the Board, the Board's committees and individual Directors that assess the experience, skills, qualifications, diversity and contributions of each individual and of the group as a whole.

The results are reported to and discussed with the Chairman of the Board and the Chair of each Board committee, who in turn present and discuss the results with the full Board or applicable committee. The evaluations assess the effectiveness of the Board and its committees and identify areas in which the applicable governing body could enhance its performance.

Individual Skills and Experience. When evaluating potential Director nominees, the Committee considers each individual's professional expertise and educational background in addition to the general qualifications. The Committee evaluates each individual in the context of the Board as a whole. The Committee works with the Board to determine the appropriate mix of backgrounds and experiences that would establish and maintain a Board that is strong in its collective knowledge, allowing the Board to fulfill its responsibilities, represent our stockholders' interests and best perpetuate our long-term success.

The Committee regularly communicates with the Board to identify characteristics, professional experience and areas of expertise that will help meet specific Board needs, including:


▪	operating experience as current or former executives, which gives Directors specific insight into, and expertise that fosters active participation in, the development and implementation of our operating plan and business strategy;


▪	leadership experience, as Directors who have served in important leadership positions possess strong abilities to motivate and manage others and to identify and develop leadership qualities in others;

▪	industry knowledge, which assists in understanding and reviewing our business strategy; and

▪

public company board and corporate governance experience at mid-cap or large publicly traded companies, which provides Directors with a solid understanding of their extensive and complex oversight responsibilities—including risk management and strategic planning—and furthers our goals of greater transparency, accountability for management and the Board and protection of stockholders' interests.

The following table highlights each current Director's specific skills, knowledge and experiences. A particular Director may possess other skills, knowledge or experience even though they are not indicated below.

Board of Directors

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

In February 2019, the 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, Chris Terrill 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 2020 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 below regarding the age of each Director nominee is as of March 12, 2019, and 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.

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.

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 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 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 Committee's recommendation, the Board will consider the information, factors and alternatives considered by the 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 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.

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. As reported in our 2018 proxy statement, on February 14, 2018, the Company and Kevin Kelleher, the former President and CEO of Cartus (the Company's relocation and affinity services segment), entered into a Consulting Agreement, effective March 1, 2018, pursuant to which Mr. Kelleher was paid $200,000 for the provision of consulting services to the Company through June 30, 2018.

We recruited internal and external candidates to replace a substantial portion of our former executive team and we restructured core roles to promote individual strengths and our principal business objectives.

2018 Results

2018 was a challenging year, with net income for the full year of $137 million, compared to $431 million for 2017. 2017 net income included a tax benefit of $216 million resulting from the change in the U.S. corporate tax rate.

We experienced a decline of 10% in year-over-year Operating EBITDA from $732 million in 2017 to $658 million in 2018. The decline was largely driven by lower revenue in the fourth quarter of 2018 as well as higher affiliated agent commission expense. (See Annex A for a full definition and a reconciliation of this non-GAAP metric to net income.)

The fourth quarter of 2018 was particularly difficult for both Realogy and the residential real estate market.

The Company's full year 2018 combined homesale transaction volume (transaction sides multiplied by average sale price) increased 1% compared with 2017 and declined 5% year-over-year in the fourth quarter. For reference, the National Association of Realtors reported that homesale transaction volume remained flat in 2018 compared to 2017 and declined 4% year-over-year in the fourth quarter.

Key Strategic Imperatives

Our reinvigorated leadership team has designed a strategic plan intended to drive increases in productive independent sales agents and homesale transaction volume to generate Operating EBITDA growth over time.

This strategy seeks to capitalize on the sizable market of commission revenues in the residential real estate industry and includes the:


▪	Leveraging of our brands, technology and data scales;


▪	Increased utilization of advanced data analytics together with strong product and service offerings to support and grow the base of productive independent sales agents at our company owned brokerage business; and


▪	Execution of strategic initiatives intended to organically grow our real estate franchise business by adding new franchisees and increasing the base of independent sales agents affiliated with our franchisees by building on our current technology offerings, offering greater differentiation of our brands and expanding our historical scope of potential franchisee candidates.




		We measure our success against our strategic imperatives through bottom-line growth, our ability to generate cash and the creation of stockholder value.

Strategic Alignment with Compensation

Our Compensation Committee, which we refer to in this CD&A as the "Committee," ties a significant portion of the executive compensation opportunity to performance against the metrics the Committee believes are most directly linked to the successful execution of our strategy, including Operating EBITDA, Free Cash Flow and the generation of stockholder returns that meet or exceed the market.




		As noted in the table below, when our stockholders experience losses, realizable executive compensation follows the same trajectory - with payouts for our performance-based plans ending in 2018 ranging from 0% to 55%.



Consolidated Plan EBITDA (Annual Cash Incentive)	Relative Total Stockholder Return (3-year Performance Share Units)	Cumulative Free Cash Flow (3-year Performance Share Units)

		Payouts under the rolling three-year performance share unit, or PSU, awards for the 2017-2019 and 2018-2020 performance periods are also forecasted to result in below target payouts as of the end of 2018.

The table below summarizes our forecasted performance under the 2017-2019 PSU awards and 2018-2020 PSU awards as of December 31, 2018. Actual results will be determined based upon results under the applicable metric at the conclusion of the applicable three-year cycle.

Given our 2018 operating results, the Committee believes that our pay-for-performance executive compensation program is working as designed with no or below target payouts for performance periods ending in 2018 and dramatic reductions in the value of time-based equity awards:


▪	There was an 87% decline in aggregate value for the 2016 performance share unit awards granted to participating NEOs that measured performance over the 2016 to 2018 period vs. the 60% decline in stock price since January 4, 2016.

2018 INVESTOR OUTREACH PROGRAM: Executive Compensation Topics

At our 2018 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, our say-on-pay proposal received support from 63% of the votes cast—a lower level of support than we received at our last several meetings where support ranged from 93% to 97%.

In the spring of 2018, in advance of our 2018 Annual Meeting and thereafter, in the fall/winter of 2018, we reached out to stockholders representing over 95% of our outstanding shares and held in-person meetings or calls with holders of approximately 74% of our outstanding shares (in many instances we met with a stockholder more than once).

Michael Williams, Chairman of the Board, met with substantially all of our stockholders who accepted our invitation at least once and Duncan Niederauer, Chair of the Compensation Committee, joined him on several occasions. The feedback from these important sessions with our investors was reviewed and discussed with the full Board.

A key objective of our 2018 Investor Outreach was to listen to our stockholders and better understand their perspectives on our executive compensation program and, with respect to the fall investor outreach, any concerns that motivated the lower level of support for our 2018 “say-on-pay” vote. In addition, many of our conversations with investors centered on additional topics including Board oversight of our operating performance, the execution of our strategy, capital allocation and enterprise risk management.

Key governance matters were also discussed, such as the Board’s structure, the split of the CEO and Chairman roles and diversity as well as those presented on page 11 under Governance of the Company—2018 Investor Outreach Program: Corporate Governance Topics.

As noted on page 11, in response to investor comments, the Board has:


▪	Made proxy access available to stockholders via our Bylaws; and


▪	Approved amendments to our Certificate of Incorporation, subject to stockholder approval at the Annual Meeting, to eliminate supermajority voting provisions related to amendment of our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws.

With respect to compensation matters, many stockholders noted their support of certain historic compensation practices, including that 90% of CEO target direct compensation is “at-risk” and more than half of CEO target direct compensation is subject to performance metrics. Many stockholders also supported our use of three-year performance share units for at least a majority of long-term incentive awards, the alignment of our performance metrics with our strategic objectives, the alignment of realizable compensation with stockholder returns and the mix of performance metrics, including the use of absolute and relative metrics.

Stockholders did raise concerns with certain aspects of our executive compensation program described on the next page.

		Based on discussions with, and the feedback received from, our investors, the Committee incorporated the following changes into our 2019 executive compensation program and proxy statement disclosure.



	Stockholder Feedback	Committee Response
Performance- Based Compensation	Relative Total Stockholder Return (RTSR) Metric: Performance share units tied to a RTSR metric should be subject to a broader index to measure relative total stockholder return rather than the SPDR S&P Homebuilders ETF (XHB) index, which is weighted to homebuilders	2019 RTSR PSU awards are based on Realogy's relative total stockholder return as compared to the S&P MidCap 400 index, allowing for measurement against a broader index
Performance- Based Compensation	Cumulative Free Cash Flow (CFCF) Metric: The determination of CFCF, which is used as a PSU metric, should not include benefits to CFCF recognized as a result of acquisitions during the performance period if the earnings from these acquisitions had not been incorporated into the CFCF target goal	The calculation of CFCF in the 2019 CFCF PSU awards will exclude 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)
Insider Stock Ownership	Executives and Directors should have a more meaningful ownership stake in Realogy stock	Revised our Stock Ownership Guidelines to, among other things: - Increase CEO ownership requirement from 5x to 6x base salary - Increase Director ownership requirement from $375K to $500K (or if greater, 5x the annual cash retainer)
Proxy Statement Organization & Disclosure	More clearly and prominently disclose the: - Design of, and actual results under, both short-term and long-term performance metrics - How the Committee determines executive compensation levels - How realizable compensation tracks investor returns	Revised the CD&A to: - Include clear presentation of the design of each performance metric - More prominently report the actual results achieved under performance cycles completed in 2018 - Include additional details of the Committee's compensation setting process and rationale for changes to executive compensation - Simplify disclosure to show the alignment between realizable compensation and stockholder return

Additionally, the Committee reduced the grant date fair value of the CEO's 2019 long-term incentive award by 11% compared to the grant date fair value of his 2018 long-term incentive awards. Several investors cautioned against over-reliance on RTSR as a performance metric, although no concerns with our current program weighting were raised. The Committee has historically determined the target number of PSUs granted under the RTSR metric by dividing the target award value by the price determined by a Monte Carlo simulation performed by




	40

Table of Contents

an independent third-party. Recent volatility in our stock has resulted in Monte Carlo valuations well below the market value of our stock and the use of such valuation to calculate the 2019 RTSR awards could have resulted in over-sized awards to our executive officers. In light of this, and based on advice from its independent compensation consultant, the Committee determined to change the manner of calculating the target shares to be issued under the 2019 PSUs tied to the RTSR metric by dividing the RTSR target award value by the $13.60 per share closing price of our stock on the date of grant rather than the $7.91 per share Monte Carlo valuation.

This action resulted in:


▪	a 42% reduction in the grant date fair value and number of target shares issued under the 2019 PSU awards tied to RTSR compared to the value and number of target shares that would have been issued under the Monte Carlo valuation; and


▪	an 11% reduction from the grant date fair value of our CEO's 2018 long-term incentive awards.

Some investors raised additional topics during our outreach meetings that did not rise to the level of a unified theme or result in changes to our compensation program. For example, a few investors proposed for the Committee's consideration various performance metrics intended to measure our growth relative to the industry, but no particular alternative metric was suggested by more than one investor. The Committee, with the assistance of its independent compensation consultant, considered the adoption of one or more of these suggested performance metrics. However, given the scarcity of direct publicly-traded industry peers and the lack of other public companies that follow the same business cycle or economic trends as those impacting residential real estate, the Committee ultimately determined that it would not be practical to adopt the suggested performance metrics at this time.

The vast majority of our investors expressed interest in continuing dialogue with the Board on Board-related topics, including corporate governance, capital allocation, executive compensation, risk oversight and strategic direction.

Executive Compensation Program

We design our compensation programs to attract and retain accomplished and high-performing executives and to motivate those executives to consistently achieve short- and long-term goals that will create sustainable growth in stockholder value. To do this, we focus a significant percentage of the compensation opportunity for our senior leadership team, which we call our Executive Committee, on both annual and long-term incentive awards tied to performance goals intended to reflect growth in our business and in our share price in the short- and long-term, with a relatively modest portion of compensation paid in fixed base salary.

In 2018, we continued to place most of the target direct compensation opportunity of our executives “at risk,” with incentive programs tied to financial performance measures and our stock price performance. We use metrics that target stockholder priorities—EBITDA growth, free cash flow generation and relative total stockholder return.




		As shown in the graphic below, our CEO's 2018 target direct compensation was: Ÿ 90% at-risk (Annual + Long-Term Incentive) and Ÿ 60% tied to objective performance metrics (Annual Incentive + PSUs)

The target direct compensation of each other NEO is composed of the same elements, with slight variations described in this CD&A (except for Mr. Gustavson, who was not a member of the Executive Committee until November 2018, when he became our Interim Chief Financial Officer).

Table of Contents

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 meaningful 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.

However, although the firms in our peer group employ executives with a skill set comparable to those of Realogy, they generally operate in businesses with very different business cycles from residential real estate.

Accordingly, 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 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 below:



How the Committee sets elements of Total Direct Compensation
Review Process		• Annual (but changes are typically less frequent and are not guaranteed); or • Upon a promotion or material change in responsibilities
Factors		• Individual performance assessment, including input from our CEO^* • Extent of role’s impact on financial and strategic goals • Internal pay equity • Peer group positioning and other market comparables • Period since last increase • Retention concerns • Expected future contribution

________

* CEO does not participate in discussions or decisions regarding

his own compensation

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.

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

Base Salary

In February 2018, the Committee approved base salaries for 2018 as set forth in the table below, with any increases effective March 10, 2018.

In approving an increase to base salary for Mr. Peyton, the Committee considered the meaningful expansion of his role in early 2018 to include

oversight of certain Company-owned brokerage brands, including Sotheby’s International Realty^® and Corcoran^® as well as his positioning relative to the peer group. The Committee also approved a single-digit base salary increase for Mr. Hull as he had not received a base salary increase since 2015.



2018 Base Salaries
Name	Previous Year of Last Increase	2017 Base Salary ($)	2018 Base Salary ($)	Increase (%)
Ryan Schneider	n/a	1,000,000	1,000,000	—%
David Gordon	n/a	n/a	400,000	n/a
John Peyton	n/a	600,000	680,000	13.3%

Anthony Hull	2015	675,000	725,000	7.4%

Annual Incentive (Cash)

Summary. All of our NEOs participate in an annual cash incentive program that is entirely funded based on achievement against a Consolidated Plan EBITDA target (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) and certain other adjustments provided under the terms of the program, including restructuring charges, losses on the early extinguishment of debt, foreign exchange impact and legacy income that differs from the 2018 Budget.

The Committee selected Consolidated Plan EBITDA as the financial performance metric applicable to our NEOs 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.

For all NEOs, other than Mr. Gustavson, the annual cash incentive program is called the Executive Incentive Plan, or EIP. In 2018, Mr. Gustavson participated in the Realogy Performance Plan, or RPP, our annual employee cash incentive plan, as at the time of grant he was not a member of the senior leadership team, which we refer to as the Executive Committee.

The EIP and RPP are very similar, with two key differences. First, target award opportunities are lower for RPP participants. Second, RPP awards are based 50% on results under the financial metric (for Mr. Gustavson, Consolidated Plan EBITDA) and 50% on Relative Individual Performance, meaning that only half of the award can be adjusted due to individual performance factors.

Conversely, each other NEO’s entire potential award under the 2018 EIP was subject to decrease or increase based on his or her Relative Individual Performance. However, the total amount available for payouts under the EIP continued to be limited by the funding provided by Consolidated Plan EBITDA results.

The Relative Individual Performance metric was integrated into the EIP for the first time in 2018 to allow the Committee to divide the EIP funding pool among the members of the Executive Committee based upon each executive’s relative individual contribution to 2018 performance.

The following pages include additional details regarding the EIP and RPP, including how 2018 awards were determined, how the plans were funded, and actual payouts earned by our NEOs.

2018 Annual Incentive Results

Consolidated Plan EBITDA (in millions)

2018 Target Annual Incentive. The Committee approved the following target opportunities (expressed as a percentage of salary) to the NEOs: (i) for the CEO, 150% target award opportunity (given his overall greater accountability for the performance of the Company), (ii) the other NEOs, except for Mr. Gustavson, 100% target award opportunity and (iii) for Mr. Gustavson, 40% target award opportunity. The Committee believes these targets were consistent with market practice for each NEO position at the time the 2018 annual incentive program was established in February 2018.

NEOs could earn between a threshold payout of 25% and a maximum payout of 200% of their target award, with payouts determined by linear interpolation when achievement falls between performance levels.

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 EIP was funded by multiplying this aggregate target opportunity by the actual level of performance achieved (expressed as a percentage) against the Consolidated Plan EBITDA target. The aggregate value of awards under the EIP could not exceed this funding pool.

As a result, any increase to the amount earned by one EIP participant due his or her Relative Individual Performance resulted in a decrease to the amount earned by one or more other EIP participants.

The potential funding pool for the RPP was determined by aggregating the target opportunity of each RPP participant, with actual funding determined in the same manner as the EIP.

Rigor in Setting the Consolidated Plan EBITDA Target. The target Consolidated Plan EBITDA goal was set by the Committee at a level equal to the budget approved by the Board for 2018, or the 2018 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 2018 EIP was based solely on Consolidated Plan EBITDA. In prior years, executive officers leading a business unit were weighted 50% on the Plan EBITDA performance of their respective business unit.

Table of Contents

The Consolidated Plan EBITDA target for plan funding was lower than the actual Consolidated Plan EBITDA results under the 2017 EIP due to a variety of factors. When setting the 2018 EIP target, the Committee considered that:


▪	the 2018 Budget forecast mid-single digit homesale transaction volume growth; and


▪	we anticipated benefits from 2017 recruiting and retention efforts in our company owned brokerage operations as well as benefits from cost saving initiatives.

However, the foregoing benefits were anticipated to be negatively impacted by:


▪	the expected expense impact of continuing strategic initiatives focused on the retention and recruitment of independent sales agents in a highly competitive environment, including continuing pressure on the share of gross commission income paid by our company owned brokerages; and


▪	a significantly lower level of new development volume expected during 2018.

Balancing these factors, the Committee believed that the target set for the EIP was in fact rigorous, notwithstanding it being lower than the actual 2017 EIP achievement.

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

2018	44.0%*

Relative Individual Performance Calculation. The Committee, following consideration of the recommendations of the CEO with respect to all executives other than himself, evaluated the performance of each NEO based on the following factors:


▪	Achievement of key strategic and operational objectives;


▪	Execution of key growth initiatives;


▪	Execution of key talent management initiatives; and


▪	Other factors identified as appropriate, such as risk management.

The Committee, with input from the Board following its annual evaluation of the CEO, took the same factors into consideration when assessing the Relative Individual Performance of Mr. Schneider.

Downward adjustments made to one participant’s award could be used to make a corresponding upward adjustment to another participant’s award, provided that:


▪	the total amount available for payout was limited to the funding pool created by actual performance against the Consolidated Plan EBITDA target; and


▪	no award could exceed the maximum payout cap of 200% of target under the EIP and RPP.

In determining each ongoing NEO's Relative Individual Performance, the Committee considered, among other things, the following factors for:


▪	Mr. Schneider, his critical contributions to the development of Realogy's vision, in particular his strong leadership role in driving substantial change at the Company, including strategic, product, value proposition, talent and cultural changes;


▪	Mr. Gordon, the advancements made toward the realignment of the Company's technology and data organization as well as his strong contributions to the development of products and services designed to support our agent- and franchisee-focused strategy;


▪	Mr. Peyton, the relative strength of the performance of the franchise business in 2018 as well as his increased responsibilities for certain company-owned brokerages and his contributions to the implementation of strategic initiatives related to the franchise business;


▪	Ms. Wasser, her significant contributions to risk management as well as legal, compliance and regulatory matters; and


▪	Mr. Gustavson, the solid execution of his oversight responsibilities for the accounting, treasury, tax and accounts payable functions as well as his assumption of an expanded role in November 2018 to include Interim CFO and Treasurer.

2018 Payouts Earned under the EIP & RPP.

2019 Executive Incentive Plan

In February 2019, the Committee determined that the structure of the 2019 Executive Incentive Plan and 2019 Realogy Performance Plan would be consistent with the design of the 2018 EIP and RPP.

Long-Term Incentive (Equity)

Long-term incentives, or LTI, consists of equity awards granted under the Realogy 2018 Long-Term Incentive Plan.



2018 Long-Term Incentive Awards by Grant Type and Weighting
	Performance-Based Awards Performance Share Units		Time-Based Awards
	RTSR	CFCF	Options	RSUs
CEO	30%	30%	20%	20%
Other NEOs (except T. Gustavson)	20%	30%	20%	30%
T. Gustavson	20%	30%	—%	50%

Summary. In 2018, 60% of the CEO’s and 50% of the other NEO’s LTI was granted in the form of performance share units, or PSUs, that are tied to Company achievement against pre-established metrics over the three-year period ending December 31, 2020. 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 LTI award is comprised of time-based awards granted in the form of options (except with respect to Mr. Gustavson who was not a member of the Executive Committee at the time of grant) and restricted stock units.

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 vesting periods applicable to time-based awards, including ratable four year vesting for option awards and three year vesting for restricted stock unit awards. In addition, the Committee considered the “at-risk” nature of options, which will only have value if our stock price increases above the exercise price of the option and such value is maintained through the applicable vesting and exercise date.

When the 2018 LTI awards were granted, substantially all outstanding option awards made to NEOs in the prior three fiscal years were

“underwater,” did not have any “in the money” value, and were tracking to have no realizable value without an increase in stock price.

The Committee considered the following factors when determining each NEO’s 2018 LTI grant:


▪	the need to provide sufficient long-term incentives to meet 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.

In addition, in the case of our CEO, the Committee considered the terms of his employment agreement, which was negotiated in October 2017 and set forth his minimum equity grant of $7.5 million applicable for 2018.

The Committee believes that Mr. Schneider’s 2018 LTI award is appropriate given:


▪	the majority (60%) of his LTI award is tied to the achievement of objective performance goals over a three-year performance cycle;




	49

Table of Contents


▪	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 minimum period of three years (four years for options) and will be forfeited if he is terminated for cause or voluntarily leaves his position.

The Committee weighted PSU awards more heavily for Mr. Schneider than other NEOs, with PSUs comprising 60% of his LTI award. In addition, Mr. Schneider’s PSU award is weighted evenly between RTSR and CFCF metrics for the 2018-2020 performance period 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 Mr. Peyton’s LTI award from $1.2 million in 2017 to $1.5 million in 2018 to reflect the substantial increase in his responsibilities in 2018 to include certain Company-owned brokerage brands. The Committee

also considered the retentive benefits of equity awards in making this adjustment to Mr. Peyton’s LTI award value.

The Committee kept the LTI awards flat, year-over-year, for each of Ms. Wasser and Messrs. Gustavson and Hull, determining that the LTI opportunities appropriately recognized for: Ms. Wasser, the variety of complex legal, risk and governance matters she oversees; Mr. Gustavson, his work as a direct report to Mr. Hull; and Mr. Hull, his role in the oversight of our entire finance operations.

The following table shows the 2018 LTI awards granted to each of our NEOs and the aggregate grant date fair market value of those awards.




		The realizable value of time-based equity awards granted to NEOs in 2018 has decreased more than 50% in value and 2018 PSU awards (for the cycle ending 12.31.2020) were tracking to pay out below target as of the end of 2018.

These awards were subject to stockholder approval of the 2018 Long-Term Incentive Plan, which was received on May 2, 2018, the official date of grant for financial reporting purposes of these awards. There was a $0.50 decrease in our stock price from $25.35 on March 1, 2018 (the date on which the awards were made) to $24.85 on May 2, 2018, which modestly decreased the aggregate grant date fair value from the value approved by the Committee.

Since 2014, PSUs have comprised the largest part of the LTI award.

In 2018, PSU awards were:


▪	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.

For example, the PSU awards granted in 2018 measure performance from January 1, 2018 to December 31, 2020. Likewise, the PSU awards that were earned for the three-year period ending December 31, 2018 were granted in 2016. Payouts are determined by linear interpolation when achievement falls between performance levels.

All of our currently outstanding PSU awards are based on 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

Summary. The Relative Total Stockholder Return metric was initially adopted by the Committee as a PSU metric in 2015 at the recommendation of investors. During the Board’s 2018 Investor Outreach Program, although several investors cautioned against over-reliance on RTSR as a performance metric, no concerns with our current program weighting were raised and stockholders generally indicated continued support for our use of an RTSR metric.

See RTSR Benchmarking and Calculation of 2019 RTSR PSU Award on the next page for changes made by the Committee applicable to the 2019 RTSR awards.

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 the 2015-2017 cycle;


▪	No payouts earned under the 2016-2018 cycle; and


▪	Below target payout forecasted under the 2017-2019 cycle and 2018-2020 cycle as of the end of 2018.



RTSR PSU—Design Features
Metric Description	Total stockholder return relative to a hypothetical investment in the applicable benchmark index (See “RTSR Benchmarking” below)
PSU Weighting	In 2018, 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%



2018-2020 RTSR PSU Payout Formula
Realogy TSR (%)	minus	XHB Index TSR (%)	=	RTSR (%)

Mechanics of RTSR PSU Awards Granted in 2018. Consistent with RTSR PSU awards for the 2016-2018 cycle and the 2017-2019 cycle, payouts under the RTSR PSU award granted for the three-year performance period of January 1, 2018 to December 31, 2020 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




	51

Table of Contents


▪	total stockholder return realized through an investment in the SPDR S&P Homebuilders ETF (XHB) index, or XHB index.

Both calculations include dividends paid during the performance period.

Target payouts for the 2018 RTSR PSUs will be earned for performance equal to the XHB Index. For every +/- 1% change in RTSR, the payout as a percentage of the target award will increase/decrease by 2%. Maximum payouts will be made at 175% of target if Realogy's TSR exceeds the XHB 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 XHB index by 30 percentage points.

The Committee protects against excessive awards by limiting payouts as follows:


▪	if RLGY total stockholder returns are negative, the payout may not exceed 100%, regardless of our relative performance against the comparator index, and


▪	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 is determining the performance level achieved under this metric.

The PSU RTSR award granted in 2019 will be benchmarked against the S&P MidCap 400 Index.

RTSR Benchmarking.

Historical Practice (PSU grants prior to 2019). In deciding to utilize an RTSR metric, the Committee recognized that a significant majority 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 reviewed several different indices to utilize for this metric and decided that the trading history of the XHB index was the most comparable to the trading history of our common stock.

When the Committee selected the XHB index, it understood that it includes housing-related companies, such as businesses related to home improvements, that do not always have the same volatility patterns and challenges as residential real estate brokerages and may perform favorably even in years in which the consumers take a cautious approach to home purchases.

Future Practice (PSU grants in 2019). During the Board’s 2018 Investor Outreach Program, several investors suggested that the Committee evaluate the use of different indexes for future RSTR awards.




		Taking into account feedback received during the 2018 Investor Outreach Program, the Committee determined to measure relative total stockholder returns against the S&P MidCap 400 index, rather than the XHB index, for 2019 RTSR PSU awards.

In designing the 2019 RTSR awards, the Committee reviewed several alternative indexes. In adopting the S&P MidCap 400 as the RTSR benchmark, the Committee considered:


▪	that the S&P MidCap 400 index is a broad-based index more easily tracked and understood by investors;


▪	that performance against the S&P MidCap 400 index emphasizes outperforming the market, rather than a specific industry;


▪	the addition of Realogy to the S&P MidCap 400 index in September 2018;


▪	that from 2016 to 2018, the S&P MidCap 400 index correlated more closely to our stock performance than other indexes considered; and


▪	suggestions from the Company's investors

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.

Calculation of 2019 RTSR Award.

The Committee has historically determined the target number of PSUs granted under the RTSR metric by dividing the target award value by the price determined by a Monte Carlo simulation performed by an independent third-party. Recent volatility in our stock has resulted in Monte Carlo valuations well below the market value of our stock and the use of such valuation to calculate the 2019 RTSR awards could have resulted in over-sized awards to our executive officers. In light of this, and based on advice from its independent compensation consultant, the Committee determined to change the manner of calculating the target shares to be issued under the 2019 PSUs tied to the RTSR metric.

This action resulted in:


▪	a 42% reduction in the grant date fair value and number of target shares issued under the 2019 PSU awards tied to RTSR compared to the value and number of target shares that would have been issued under the Monte Carlo valuation; and


▪	an 11% reduction from the grant date fair value of our CEO's 2018 long-term incentive awards.

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.

During the Board’s 2018 Investor Outreach Program, stockholders generally indicated support for our use of a CFCF metric, but some investors felt that a change to the calculation of CFCF would be appropriate. The Committee took this investor feedback into account in designing its 2019 CFCF PSU awards, as described in more detail under 2019 Change to CFCF Calculation.

The Committee has continued its use of CFCF in the LTI because it believes the metric:


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


▪	aligns with our strategic objectives, including:


▪	making strategic investments in our business;


▪	de-levering the balance sheet; and


▪	returning capital to stockholders; and


▪	is working as designed, with:


▪	Below target payouts earned under the first two completed PSU cycles (i.e., 2015-2017 and 2016-2018); and


▪	Below target payout forecasted under the ongoing PSU cycles as of the end of 2018 (i.e., 2017-2019 and 2018-2020)



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
PSU Weighting	In 2018, 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%




	53

Table of Contents

Mechanics of CFCF PSU Awards Granted in 2018. 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 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.

Specific adjustments for the 2018 CFCF metric relate to the use of cash that differs from management’s budget and used for:


▪	our relocation securitization program funding;


▪	former parent legacy payments;


▪	taxes;


▪	pension payments;


▪	business optimization and restructuring expenses;


▪	extinguishment of debt; and


▪	litigation and regulatory compliance, net of insurance reimbursement.

We do not disclose actual CFCF targets prior to the close of the related financial period for competitive reasons. However, under the 2018-2020 CFCF PSU awards, the threshold payout of 50% of the target award will be earned if 80% of target CFCF for the 2018-2020 period is achieved and the maximum payout of (200%) of target award will be earned if 121% of target CFCF is achieved.

The Committee has never exercised discretion to adjust the CFCF awards, but does have authority to exercise negative or positive discretion to adjust the payout earned under this metric for the 2018 award, including to take into account extraordinary corporate transactions or developments.

2019 Change to CFCF Calculation.




		Taking into account feedback received during the 2018 Investor Outreach Program, the Committee determined to eliminate earnings from material acquisitions during the performance period when calculating achievement under the 2019 CFCF PSU awards.

During the Board’s 2018 Investor Outreach Program, certain investors requested that the Committee reconsider its historical practice of calculating CFCF in a manner that included the benefits to CFCF that were recognized as a result of acquisitions during the performance period, if the earnings from these acquisitions had not been incorporated into the CFCF target goal.

The Committee determined to incorporate this investor feedback into the 2019 awards. As a result, the calculation of CFCF in the 2019 CFCF PSU awards will exclude 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.

Achievement Against Performance Metrics and Payouts under the 2016-2018 PSU Award Cycle

On February 25, 2019, the Committee approved payouts to the participating NEOs (all NEOs, other than Messrs. Schneider and Gordon and, with respect to the CFCF PSU award, Mr. Peyton) under the PSU awards granted in 2016 that measured performance over a three-year performance period ended December 31, 2018.

The Committee determined that no payout was earned under the RTSR metric as we did not achieve threshold performance against the XHB index. As a result, no shares were earned under this portion of the 2016-2018 PSU award.



Relative Total Stockholder Return Results 0% Payout Earned (2016-2018 Cycle)
Realogy TSR	XHB TSR	Actual Relative TSR	Payout
-53%	-2%	-51%	0%

RTSR Performance Range (2016-2018 Cycle)


▪	Maximum if RTSR better than +25.7%


▪	Threshold: RTSR is better than -18.6%


▪	Target if RTSR is +2/-2% to XHB Index (but note that awards granted after 2016 do not allow for target payout for below index performance)

Performance under the CFCF metric was determined to be 55% of target by the Committee, as set forth in the table below.

This table sets forth the:


▪	Pre-established CFCF performance levels over the three-year period of January 1, 2016 to December 31, 2018 at threshold, target and maximum payout; and


▪	Actual CFCF performance achieved during the 2016-2018 period.

Taking into account the decline in realized value recognized by Mr. Peyton (who did not receive a CFCF PSU award in 2016), the aggregate target value realized by participating NEOs under the 2016-2018 PSU award cycle was 13% as of December 31, 2018.

Outstanding PSU Cycles

As shown on page 37 in the Executive Summary section of this CD&A, payouts under the three-year PSU cycles for the 2017-2019 and 2018-2020 performance periods are also forecasted to result in below target payouts as of the end of 2018.

Actual results will be determined based upon results under the applicable metric at the conclusion of the applicable three-year cycle.

2019-2021 Performance Share Unit Awards

In February 2019, the Committee determined that the structure of the 2019-2021 cycle of the PSU awards would be consistent with the design of the 2018-2020 cycle, except for the incorporation of investor feedback received during the 2018 Investor Outreach Program:


▪	RTSR will be measured against the S&P MidCap 400 index (see RTSR Benchmarking on page 52)


▪	Maximum payout of 175% of target will be paid if Realogy's TSR exceeds the S&P MidCap 400 index TSR by 37.5 percentage points, assuming Realogy's TSR is positive. Threshold payout of 40% of target will be paid if Realogy's TSR trails the S&P MidCap 400 index by 30 percentage points.


▪	The Committee changed the manner of calculating the number of shares issued under the RTSR award in order to avoid the potential for over-sized awards (see 2019 Long-Term Incentive Awards on page 58)


▪	The calculation of CFCF will exclude 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) (see 2019 Change to CFCF Calculation on page 54)


▪	Maximum payout of 200% of target will be earned if 124% of target CFCF is achieved. Threshold payout of 50% of target will be earned if 79% of target CFCF for the performance period is achieved.


▪	See 2019 Long-Term Incentive Awards on page 58 for target PSU awards granted to NEOs under the 2019 long-term incentive.

Time-Based Awards

Our NEOs have experienced significant declines in the value of time-based equity awards granted since 2016.

The table shown below compares the aggregate grant date fair market value of all time-based equity awards granted to our NEOs from 2016 to 2018 against the value of the shares calculated using our 2018 closing stock price. Time-based awards during 2016 to 2018 include:


▪	RSUs (including accrued dividend equivalent units) granted as part of the LTI or as inducement equity awards (received by Mr. Schneider in Oct. 2017 and Mr. Gordon in Jan. 2018); and


▪	Options (based on spread between the exercise price and the 2018 closing stock price).

Realizable Value

NEO Time-Based Equity Awards

2016, 2017 & 2018 (in millions)

Options. Options have a maximum term of ten years and vest over four years, with 25% vesting on each anniversary date of the grant date. The exercise price is equal to the closing sale price of our common stock on the date of grant.

A stock option only has value if our stock price increases above the exercise price of the stock option and such value is maintained through the applicable vesting and exercise date.

Our Committee views time-vested stock option awards as an important tool to align the interests of our named executive officers with the interests of our stockholders and believes that this form of equity effectively rewards the successful execution of our long-term growth strategy.

The time vesting feature of the option awards is also intended to serve as a meaningful executive retention device.

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

The Committee determined to grant time-based RSUs in place of performance restricted stock units in 2018. The Committee made this decision based upon several factors, including that following this change, a significant portion of executive compensation remained at-risk and subject to performance metrics, that a meaningful portion of executive compensation is already linked to EBITDA results under our annual cash incentive program, and that RSUs serve an important role in encouraging executive retention.

Dividend Equivalent Units. Outstanding PSUs, RSUs and performance restricted stock units carry dividend equivalent rights related to any cash dividend paid by Realogy while the units are outstanding. Options do not carry dividend equivalent rights.

Any additional units 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.

Dividend equivalent units are calculated by multiplying the amount of cash dividends declared on Realogy’s outstanding common stock by the number of shares covered by the applicable outstanding award at the time of the related dividend record date and dividing this amount by the closing price of our stock on the related dividend payment date.

"Make-Whole" Awards To Mr. Gordon

As an inducement to his hiring in January 2018, the Committee granted Mr. Gordon a sign-on cash bonus in the amount of $333,000 and an RSU award in the amount of $1,066,980. The aggregate value of these awards was approximately equal to the value of cash and equity awards forfeited by Mr. Gordon in connection with his change in employer.

Mr. Gordon agreed to repay Realogy the full amount of cash bonus in the event he voluntarily resigned or was terminated for cause within one year of the award.




	57

Table of Contents

The RSU award, including any proceeds, gains or other economic benefit in respect of the award, are subject to the terms and conditions of the Company’s Clawback Policy, which allows the Board to recoup incentive compensation in the event of a material restatement or adjustment of our financial statements, misconduct, or breach of Mr. Gordon's restrictive

covenants with us, including those related to non-competition and non-solicitation.

The RSUs vest in equal installments over three years on each grant date anniversary.

2019 Long-Term Incentive Awards

The Committee determined to change the method for calculating RTSR PSUs granted as part of the 2019 LTI. The Committee has historically determined the target number of PSUs granted under the RTSR metric by dividing the target award value by the price determined by a Monte Carlo simulation performed by an independent third-party. Recent volatility in our stock has resulted in Monte Carlo valuations well below the market value of our stock and the use of such valuation to calculate the 2019 RTSR awards could have resulted in over-sized awards to our executive officers. In light of this, and based on advice from its independent compensation consultant, the Committee determined to change the manner of calculating the target shares to be issued under the 2019 PSUs tied to the RTSR metric by dividing the RTSR target award value by the $13.60 per share closing price of our stock on the date of grant rather than the $7.91 per share Monte Carlo valuation.

This action resulted in:


▪	a 42% reduction in the grant date fair value and number of target shares issued under the 2019 PSU awards tied to RTSR compared to the value and number of target shares that would have been issued under the Monte Carlo valuation; and


▪	an 11% reduction from the grant date fair value of our CEO's 2018 long-term incentive awards.

The following table sets forth the LTI grants made to our ongoing NEOs by the Committee, effective February 28, 2019.

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 business day following the release of full year earnings results and the filing of our Annual Report on 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 that are based upon achievement of Company-specific metrics, 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 valuing options, the Company utilizes a Black-Scholes valuation methodology.

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 - however the number of PSUs granted under the 2019 RTSR award was determined by dividing the value assigned to the award by the closing price of our common stock on the date of grant ($13.60), rather than the Monte Carlo grant date fair value ($7.91), resulting in a reduction in the number of shares granted to our NEOs under this award.

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.

Stock Ownership Requirements

Adopted in 2013 by the Committee, 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.

Several investors emphasized the importance of executive and director stock ownership during our 2018 Investor Outreach Program.




		Based upon feedback during our 2018 Investor Outreach Program, the Committee increased the CEO’s minimum stock ownership requirement to 6x annual base salary

Under Realogy’s stock ownership guidelines, members of the Executive Committee (or EC) are required to own shares of our common stock equal to a specified multiple of their annual base salary.



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

In 2018, the Committee also eliminated the use of vested options toward the ownership requirement. Under the revised Stock Ownership Guidelines, 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.

Ms. Wasser satisfied the stock ownership requirements as of the last measurement date of December 31, 2018. Messrs. Schneider and Peyton each became executive officers in 2017 and Mr. Gordon joined the Company in 2018, accordingly,




	59

Table of Contents

each of these NEOs have five years from commencement of employment with us to meet the ownership requirement. As an interim member of the Executive Committee, Mr. Gustavson is not subject to the ownership requirement.

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.

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 50% of amounts contributed by the

officer, subject to a maximum of 6% of eligible compensation.

In April 2018, the Committee terminated our former fractional aircraft ownership and, prior to termination there was no personal use of the aircraft by our NEOs in 2018.

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 (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—our relocation services business unit— including limited tax gross-up assistance. Each of Messrs. Schneider, Gordon and Peyton received such relocation benefits in 2018.

Severance Protection

Severance Protection in 2018. As described in more detail under “—Potential Payments upon Termination or Change in Control,” each of our ongoing 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, other than Mr. Gustavson, 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 ongoing NEO, other than Mr. Gustavson, is 100% (although, in the case of a qualifying termination of employment within twenty-four months following a change in control of the Company, their multiple is 200%). Mr. Gustavson’s severance pay is equal to 100% of his base salary, either before or after a change in the control.

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 ongoing NEOs under the foregoing circumstances aid in the attraction and retention of these executives as a competitive practice and are




	60

Table of Contents

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.

Transition to Severance and Change in Control Plans (commencing in 2019). In late 2018, with the assistance of its independent compensation consultant, the Committee determined to move away from individual severance agreements with executives and to instead transition seven members of the Executive Committee (all members of the Executive Committee other than the CEO and Mr. Gustavson) into severance and change in control plans.

In making this determination, the Committee considered the ease of uniform administration offered by a plan, as opposed to individual agreements, including that the Committee could amend the severance and change in control provisions applicable to participating executives at the same time and in the same manner.

Accordingly, on October 31, 2018, the Committee adopted an Executive Severance Plan and an Executive Change in Control Plan. Although these plans did not have any participants in 2018, all executives with executive severance agreements with the Company are expected to join the plans as their individual agreements expire. Eligible participants may also elect to join these plans early by agreeing to terminate their individual severance agreements.

The severance benefits offered under the Executive Severance Plan and an Executive Change in Control Plan are materially consistent with those offered pursuant to individual executive severance agreements. For a more detailed discussion of these plans see Agreements with Named Executive Officers—Executive Severance Plan and Executive Change in Control Plan.

Severance Arrangements for Mr. Hull. As part of his transition out of the CFO role, the Company and Mr. Hull agreed that commencing November 5, 2018, he would continue employment with the Company as a Senior Advisor to the CEO until March 31, 2019.

Upon completion of his services as Senior Advisor, it is expected that Mr. Hull will receive severance and benefits under his Executive Severance Agreement with the Company as if the termination of employment was a termination by the Company without cause, subject to his continued compliance with his

restrictive covenants and the execution and non-revocation of a release of claims.

A description and quantification of Mr. Hull’s expected severance payments and benefits upon his termination from the Company at the end of March are set forth under “Potential Payments upon Termination or Change in Control.”

Tax Considerations

Following the passage of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”) on December 22, 2017, the Committee rescinded its prior policy related to the now unavailable exemption for performance-based compensation under Section 162(m) of the Code, except to the extent that remuneration subject to Section 162(m) of the Code pursuant to a contract, award, plan or other compensatory agreement or arrangement may be eligible for transition relief under the Tax Act. However, the Committee remains committed to continuing to link executive compensation with Company performance through performance-based and at-risk compensation vehicles in 2019 and future years.

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 all of our executive officers.

The Committee’s independent compensation consultant reviews compensation materials presented

Table of Contents

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.

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 incentive compensation target 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 Human Resources Officer participates in the data analysis process.

Our Peer Group

As the majority of the Company’s closest peers are privately held, the Committee evaluates potential peers in industries that resemble the Company’s cyclicality, business model and financial performance (including revenue as well as market capitalization parameters).

Our current compensation peer group was created in 2016 and includes companies that are influenced by the housing market and share traits of our other business units.

During 2018, the Committee reviewed our peer group and, upon advice from its independent compensation consultant, determined that it continues to provide a reasonable view of the market in which Realogy competes for executive talent.

In terms of size, compared to our peer group, based upon data as of and for the year ended December 31, 2018, Realogy’s revenues were at the 49th percentile and its market capitalization was at the 15th percentile.

Although the firms in our peer group employ executives with a skill set comparable to those of the Company, they generally 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.

Our peer group was utilized by the Committee in connection with its 2017, 2018 and 2019 executive compensation decisions.

In preparation for the establishment of 2018 executive compensation, in November 2017, the Committee’s independent compensation consultant delivered 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.

The Committee considered the analysis presented at its November 2017 meeting as well as an evaluation of executive performance in early 2018 in setting NEO compensation for 2018.

_______________

(1)

Each of Mr. Gordon, Ms. Wasser and Mr. Gustavson became named executive officers of the Company for the first time in 2018 and each of Messrs. Schneider and Peyton became named executive officers of the Company for the first time in 2017. Only compensation for years in which these executives were named executive officers are included in the table. Effective November 5, 2018, Mr. Hull transitioned to the non-officer role of Senior Advisor to the CEO and Mr. Gustavson was appointed as Interim Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer, adding to his duties as Senior Vice President, Chief Accounting Officer and Corporate Controller. See footnote (11) below for additional information.


(2)	The following are the annual base salaries payable to each of the named executive officers as of December 31, 2018: Mr. Schneider, $1,000,000; Mr. Gordon $400,000; Mr. Peyton, $680,000; Ms. Wasser, $500,000; Mr. Gustavson, $291,595; and Mr. Hull, $725,000.


(3)	As an inducement to his hiring in January 2018, the Committee granted Mr. Gordon a sign-on cash bonus in the amount of $333,000. See Make-Whole Inducement Awards to Mr. Gordon in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis for additional information.

(4)

As more fully described in footnotes (5), (6) and (7), the table reflects the aggregate grant date fair value of equity awards granted in 2018 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 12, "Stock-Based Compensation" to our consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

(5)

On March 1, 2018, the Company made grants to our named executive officers under its 2018 long-term incentive program. Under the program, each named executive officer received two performance share unit awards (one based upon a relative total stockholder return metric and the other based upon a cumulative free cash flow metric), a restricted stock unit award and a non-qualified stock option award, except that Mr. Gustavson did not receive a non-qualified stock option award.

The performance share unit awards and, for each named executive officer other than Mr. Gustavson, the restricted stock unit awards have a grant date for financial reporting purposes of May 2, 2018 rather than March 1, 2018, as those grants were subject to stockholders approval of the 2018 Long-Term Incentive Plan, which was approved at the 2018 Annual

Table of Contents

Meeting of Stockholders. As a result, the performance share unit award based upon the relative total stockholder return metric has a grant date value of $25.45 per share, and the performance share unit award based upon the cumulative free cash flow metric and the restricted stock unit award both have a grant date value of $24.85 per share.

Mr. Gustavson's restricted stock unit award was not subject to stockholders approval of the 2018 Long-Term Incentive Plan and therefore has a grant date value of $25.35 per share.

The non-qualified stock option awards have a Black Scholes value of $7.12 per share and an exercise price of $25.35 per share.

The table below sets forth the allocation of the grant date fair value of the 2018 long-term incentive awards (including performance share unit awards, restricted stock unit awards and non-qualified options) granted to the named executive officers:



Name	CFCF PSUs ($)		RTSR PSUs ($)		RSUs ($)		Options ($)

Anthony E. Hull	632,259		425,473		632,259		429,998

See "—Grants of Plan-Based Awards for Fiscal 2018" for additional information.


(6)	The grant date fair value of the performance share unit awards assuming achievement of the highest level of performance (175% of the target award for the PSU grant based upon the relative total stockholder return metric and 200% of the target award for the PSU grant based upon the cumulative free cash flow metric) for each of the NEOs is as follows:



Name	CFCF PSUs Maximum Payout ($)		RTSR PSUs Maximum Payout ($)		Total PSUs Maximum Payout ($)
Ryan M. Schneider	$	4,411,222	$	3,896,141	$	8,307,363

See "—Grants of Plan-Based Awards for Fiscal Year 2018" for additional information.

(7)

In addition to the 2018 long-term incentive awards described in footnote (5), on January 22, 2018, Mr. Gordon was granted a "make whole" restricted stock unit award in connection with his joining Realogy, which had a grant date value of $26.82 per share and a grant date fair value of $1,066,980. See Make-Whole Inducement Awards to Mr. Gordon in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis for additional information.


(8)	Amounts for 2018 represent cash awards earned under the 2018 Executive Incentive Plan or, for Mr. Gustavson, the 2018 Realogy Performance Plan.


(9)	None of our named executive officers is a participant in any defined benefit pension arrangement. None of our named executive officers received above-market or preferential earnings (as these terms are defined by the SEC) on a non-qualified deferred compensation account.

(10)

Amounts for 2018 represent for each named executive officer: 401(k) plan matching contributions and, for Messrs. Peyton and Hull and Ms. Wasser, the value of insurance premiums paid by the Company for supplemental death insurance. In addition, for Messrs. Schneider, Gordon and Peyton, the 2018 amount includes relocation and temporary housing expenses and related items, including $52,497 for Mr. Schneider, including an income tax gross-up amount of $14,058, $63,486 for Mr. Gordon, including an income tax gross-up amount of $16,741 and $53,664 for Mr. Peyton, including an income tax gross-up amount of $25,241.

(11)

As part of Mr. Hull's transition out of the CFO role, the Company and Mr. Hull agreed that commencing November 5, 2018, he would continue employment with the Company as a Senior Advisor to the CEO until March 31, 2019 at his current base salary reflected in footnote (2) above. Upon completion of his services as Senior Advisor, it is expected that Mr. Hull will receive severance and benefits under his NEO Agreement dated February 23, 2016 as if the termination of employment was a termination by the Company without cause, subject to his continued compliance with his restrictive covenants and the execution and non-revocation of a release of claims. See the "Other Termination without Cause or for Good Reason" column of the Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change-in-Control table for an estimated quantification of the severance payments and benefits payable to Mr. Hull upon his final separation from the Company.

_______________


(1)	The non-equity incentive plan awards represent grants made under the 2018 Executive Incentive Plan, or EIP, or, for Mr. Gustavson, the 2018 Realogy Performance Plan, or RPP. The performance criteria under the EIP and RPP for each named executive officer was 2018 Consolidated Plan EBITDA—or earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and




	66

Table of Contents

amortization (as adjusted pursuant to the terms of the EIP and RPP). Under the pre-established Consolidated Plan EBITDA performance levels, each named executive officer could earn between a threshold payout of 25% and a maximum payout of 200% of the target award. Where performance levels fell between achievement percentage levels, the amount earned was determined by linear interpolation. Under their respective agreements with the Company, the target incentive award payable to our named executive officers is 100% of their respective salaries, or in the case of Mr. Schneider, 150% of his salary and, in the case of Mr. Gustavson 40% of his salary.


(2)	Consists of non-qualified options that become exercisable at the rate of 25% per year, commencing one year from the date of grant.

(3)

The relative total stockholder return performance share unit award under this column for each NEO 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 SPDR S&P Homebuilders ETF (XHB) index ("RTSR") for the three-year performance period ending December 31, 2020. The RTSR metric has a weighting of 50% of the 2018 performance share unit awards for our CEO and 40% of the performance share units for the other NEOs. 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 XHB 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.

(4)

The cumulative free cash flow ("CFCF") performance share unit award under this column for each NEO 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 following metric: the Company's cumulative free cash flow with the target award aligned with the Company's 2018-2020 strategic plan. The CFCF metric has a weighting of 50% of the 2018 performance share unit awards for our CEO and 60% for the other NEOs. The CFCF metric aligns the NEO's long-term compensation with the manner in which stockholders measure the Company's operating performance and its ability to generate cash to advance key strategic imperatives. 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.


(5)	Consists of a restricted stock unit award that vests in three equal annual installments on March 1, 2019, 2020 and 2021.


(6)	Consists of a restricted stock unit award that vests in three equal annual installments on January 22, 2019, 2020 and 2021.


(7)	The assumptions we used in determining the grant date fair value of these awards are described in Note 12, "Stock-Based Compensation" to our consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

The 2018 performance share unit and restricted stock unit awards each carry dividend equivalent rights related to any cash dividend paid by the Company while the units are outstanding. In the event the Company pays a cash dividend on its outstanding shares following the grant of these awards, the number of outstanding units will be increased by a number of units determined by dividing (i) the amount of the cash dividend on the number of shares covered by the applicable outstanding award at the time of the related dividend record date, by (ii) the closing price of a share on the related dividend payment date. Any additional units credited as dividend equivalents will be 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.

Realogy Pension Benefits at 2018 Fiscal Year End

None of our named executive officers is a participant in any defined benefit pension arrangement, including the frozen Realogy Pension Plan described in this section.

Prior to Realogy Group's separation from Cendant, Cendant sponsored and maintained the Cendant Corporation Pension Plan (the "Cendant Pension Plan"), which was a "defined benefit" employee pension plan subject to the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended ("ERISA"), and a successor to the former PHH Corporation Pension Plan (the "Former PHH Pension Plan"). During 1999, the Former PHH Pension Plan was frozen and curtailed, other than for certain employees who attained certain age and service requirements. In connection with Realogy Group's separation, Realogy Group adopted a new defined benefit employee pension plan, named the Realogy Corporation Pension Plan (the "Realogy Pension Plan").

A number of our employees were entitled to benefits under the Realogy Pension Plan by virtue of their prior participation in the Former PHH Pension Plan as well as their subsequent participation in the Cendant Pension Plan. At Realogy Group's separation, the Realogy Pension Plan assumed all liabilities and obligations under the Cendant Pension Plan that related to the Former PHH Pension Plan. Realogy also assumed any supplemental pension obligations

accrued by any participant of the Cendant Pension Plan that related to the Former PHH Pension Plan. In consideration of the Realogy Pension Plan accepting and assuming the liabilities and obligations described above under the Cendant Pension Plan, Cendant caused the Cendant Pension Plan to make a direct transfer of a portion of its assets to the Realogy Pension Plan proportional to the liabilities assumed by the Realogy Pension Plan.

Normal retirement under the Realogy Pension Plan is age 65, however, participants with 10 or more years of service are eligible for early retirement at age 55. Participants who attain early retirement under the Realogy Pension Plan may receive a reduced benefit upon retirement (calculated with an approximate 0.33% reduction for each month the benefit is paid before age 60).

The amount of the retirement benefit under the Realogy Pension Plan is determined by a formula set forth in the plan. No participants in the Realogy Pension Plan accrue any ongoing benefits (other than service) as the participation has been previously frozen (other than two participants whose participation is not frozen pursuant to the terms of the Realogy Pension Plan). Participants eligible to commence their pension benefit have several optional forms of payment available to them under the Realogy Pension Plan. Lump sum distributions are only permissible when the present value of a participant's benefit is $5,000 or below. The Realogy Pension Plan is funded by Realogy.

Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation at 2018 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 NEO who had a DCP account in 2018. 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 2018:



	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⁾	—	—	(174,308	)	—	512,082

_______________


(1)	None of the amounts reported in the table for Ms. Wasser were previously reported as compensation in the Summary Compensation Table, as this is the first year that she is an NEO.


(2)	The amount reported reflects losses on cash deferrals and the depreciation in our common stock over the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018, offset by dividend equivalent units credited to qualified deferred stock units.


(3)	The amount reported is the sum of (i) 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, 2018 and (ii) the value of cash in her DCP account on December 31, 2018.

Agreements with Named Executive Officers

The following summarizes:


▪	our employment agreement with Mr. Schneider and the executive severance agreements in place as of December 31, 2018 with each of our other NEOs, except for Mr. Gustavson; and


▪	the severance agreements we have in place with Mr. Gustavson;


▪	the consulting arrangement in place with Mr. Hull as of November 2018 and severance benefits payable to him under his severance agreement with the Company; and


▪	the key terms of the Executive Severance Plan and Executive Change in Control Plan adopted by the Compensation Committee in the fourth quarter of 2018, which did not have any participants during 2018.

As of March 5, 2019, Ms. Wasser was the only NEO participant in the Executive Severance Plan and Executive Change in Control Plan.

Messrs. Gordon and Peyton will become participants in the Executive Severance Plan and Executive Change in Control Plan upon the expiration of their individual executive severance agreements on January 8, 2021 and October 13, 2019, respectively, unless they voluntarily elect to join those plans prior to such time.

Employment & Severance Arrangements in 2018 with NEOs (other than Mr. Gustavson). On October 23, 2017, the Board entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Schneider (the "CEO Employment Agreement"). In accordance with the succession plan developed by the Board and pursuant to the CEO Employment Agreement, Mr. Schneider was named CEO of Realogy on December 31, 2017, following a transition period of service as our Chief Operating Officer and President. Mr. Schneider was also appointed as a member of the Board in October 2017 in accordance with the CEO Employment Agreement.

We also had in place executive severance agreements with each other NEO, other than Mr. Gustavson, at the end of 2018 (each severance agreement, a “Non-CEO Executive Severance Agreement” and together with the CEO Employment Agreement, the "NEO Agreements").

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) survive for three years following the execution of the applicable NEO Agreement or, if following a change in control of the Company (as defined in each NEO Agreement) the second anniversary of the change in control or the original termination date, if later.

Annual Compensation. Each NEO’s annual base salary and target annual incentive award under the Executive Incentive Plan or, for Mr. Gustavson, the Realogy Performance Plan as of December 31, 2018 is set forth in the CD&A.

Each NEO may be eligible for long-term incentive awards as determined by the Compensation Committee in its sole discretion, except that with respect to our CEO, the CEO Employment Agreement provides his 2018 target long-term equity incentive award will be valued at $7.5 million.

The CEO Employment Agreement also provided for an initial inducement equity award valued at approximately $5.0 million, comprised 50% of time-vested options and 50% of time-vested restricted stock units, which was granted on October 23, 2017.

Mr. Gordon's NEO Agreement also provided for certain "make-whole" awards described under "Make-Whole" Awards to Mr. Gordon on page 57 in the CD&A.

Mr. Schneider's inducement awards and Mr. Gordon's "make-whole" award, including any proceeds, gains or other economic benefit in respect of the awards, are subject to the terms and conditions of the Company’s Clawback Policy, which allows the Board to recoup incentive compensation in the event of a material restatement or adjustment of our financial statements, misconduct, or breach of his restrictive covenants with us, including those related to non-competition and non-solicitation.

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 Messrs. Schneider and Hull, 2.0 times) the sum of the NEO's annual base salary and annual




	74

Table of Contents

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.

Pro-Rata Annual Incentive Award. Upon a qualifying termination, the NEOs will also receive a pro-rata bonus 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 bonuses 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, in either case, until the third anniversary of the applicable NEO Agreement.

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.

Section 280G. The NEO Agreements provide that if payments and benefits provided to the executive 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, embezzlement, material 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, provided that the Board determines in good faith that such indictment would result in a material adverse impact to the business or reputation of the Company, (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 receipt of such written notice.

Good Reason. Good Reason is defined in the CEO Employment Agreement as voluntary resignation after any of the following actions taken by the Company or




	75

Table of Contents

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 bonus opportunity (not including any diminution in base salary permitted under the CEO Employment Agreement); or (v) a material breach by the Company of a material provision of the CEO Employment Agreement.

The definition of Good Reason under the Non-CEO Executive Severance Agreements is substantially similar to that under the CEO Employment Agreement except for the following material differences:


▪	clause (i) of the definition of Good Reason under the CEO Employment Agreement regarding Director service is not contained in the definition of Good Reason in each of the Non-CEO Executive Severance Agreements; and


▪	the definition of Good Reason under each Non-CEO Executive Severance Agreement, except for Mr. Gordon, includes the relocation of the NEO's primary office to a location more than 50 miles from the prior location and the NEO's commute increases as a result of such relocation.

Retirement. Retirement is any separation of service of an executive who is retirement eligible other than a termination for Cause. 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.

Severance Arrangements with Mr. Gustavson. As Mr. Gustavson was not a member of the Executive Committee until becoming our Interim CFO in November 2018, he does not have an executive severance agreement with us and is not eligible to participate in the Executive Severance Plan or Executive Change in Control Plan.

Pursuant to Mr. Gustavson's severance arrangements with the Company, he would be entitled to one year of his base salary if his job is eliminated or he is terminated without cause or upon his "good reason" resignation due to a material reduction in his base salary.

The severance is payable to Mr. Gustavson over a one-year period and is subject to his continued compliance with his restrictive covenants, including a two-year non-solicitation period and a one-year non-competition period, and the execution and non-revocation of a release of claims.

Severance Arrangements with Mr. Hull. As part of his transition out of the CFO role, commencing November 5, 2018, the Company and Mr. Hull agreed that he would continue employment with the Company as a Senior Advisor to the CEO until March 31, 2019.

Under this arrangement, Mr. Hull will continue to receive his 2018 base salary through March 31, 2019, but he was not eligible to participate in the 2019 EIP or receive 2019 LTI awards. Upon completion of his services as Senior Advisor, it is expected that Mr. Hull will receive severance and benefits under his NEO Agreement dated February 23, 2016 as if the termination of employment was a termination by the Company without cause, subject to his continued compliance with his restrictive covenants and the execution and non-revocation of a release of claims.

For an estimated quantification of the severance payments and benefits payable to Mr. Hull upon his final separation from the Company, see the amounts reported for him in the "Other Termination without Cause or for Good Reason" column of the Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change-in-Control table on page 79.

Executive Severance Plan and Executive Change in Control Plan.

Background. On October 31, 2018, the Compensation Committee approved an Executive Severance Plan and an Executive Change in Control Plan (together, the “Plans”) as well as a form of Executive Restrictive Covenant Agreement. The Executive Severance Plan provides for severance protections upon certain terminations of employment not related to a change in control while the Executive Change in Control Plan provides for protections for certain terminations in connection with a change in control.

The severance benefits offered under the Plans and the restrictive covenants included in the Executive Restrictive Covenant Agreement are materially consistent with the terms of the NEO Agreements, except as described below.

Members of the Executive Committee (other than Messrs. Schneider and Gustavson) may elect to join the Plans at any time prior to the expiration of their NEO Agreement provided that the executive has entered into an Executive Restrictive Covenant Agreement with the Company and has agreed to terminate his or her NEO Agreement.

As the severance protections under Ms. Wasser's NEO Agreement expired on February 23, 2019, she became subject to the Plans following her execution of an Executive Restrictive Covenant Agreement.




	76

Table of Contents

Term. The Committee, as Plan Administrator of the Plans, may terminate, amend or modify that 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 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.

Differences under the Plans. Minor revisions were made to the definitions of "cause" and "good reason" as used in the Non-CEO Executive Severance Agreement. For example, under the Plans, termination for cause due to an NEO's conviction of a felony or crime involving moral turpitude does not require a determination by the Board that the conviction would have a material adverse impact to the Company.

In addition, under the Plans, an NEO would have grounds to terminate his or her employment for "good reason" if he or she has required to relocate more than 35 miles and the NEO's commute increases as a result of such relocation provide (whereas the Non-CEO Executive Severance Agreement sets the threshold at 50 miles). However, under the Plans, a reduction in an NEO's EIP target will not give rise to a "good reason" termination.

The Plans also offer extended protection against a change in control of the Company. Specifically, the Executive Severance Plan includes the same provision under the NEO Agreements, which provides for change in control severance payments if an NEO experiences a qualifying termination within 24 months after a change in control of the Company, but unlike the NEO Agreements, the Executive Severance Plan further provides 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).

Each NEO is entitled to payment of accrued but unpaid salary to the date of termination and payment of the 2018 EIP (or. for Mr. Gustavson, the 2018 RPP), to the extent earned. See —Summary Compensation Table for amounts earned by the NEOs under the 2018 EIP or 2018 RPP. The amounts set forth in the table do not include accrued but unpaid salary or any earned compensation under the 2018 EIP arising from a termination of employment as of December 31, 2018. The amounts shown also do not include deferred compensation payable following the termination of an NEO who participates in the now frozen 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, 2018 ($14.68 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, restricted stock units and performance 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)	Mr. Hull and Ms. Wasser were "retirement eligible" at December 31, 2018 and the amount shown under this column for "Equity Acceleration/Vesting" is the amount they are entitled to under the "Retirement" column as the retirement eligible provisions of the awards provide greater benefits to the NEOs. 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 2018 Fiscal Year End table.

(5)

Amounts shown under this column for "Equity Acceleration/Vesting" for each retirement eligible grantee (Mr. Hull and Ms. Wasser) is the sum of (1) the amount set forth under the "Retirement" column; (2) the value of the NEO's unvested 2018 restricted stock unit award; 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, 2018 ($14.68) and the option exercise price by the number of stock options subject to accelerated vesting. As the exercise price of each unvested option held by each of these NEOs was above the closing price of our common stock on December 31, 2018, no value has been included for the third component of this calculation.

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 2018 Fiscal Year End" table; (2) the value of unvested performance restricted stock unit and 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, 2018 ($14.68) and the option exercise price by the number of stock options subject to accelerated vesting. As the exercise price of each unvested option held by each of these NEOs was above the closing price of our common stock on December 31, 2018, no value has been included for the third component of this calculation.

All salaried employees are entitled to death insurance benefits of up to $1,000,000. The amounts reported under the column for Death and Dismemberment Insurance Benefits are the proceeds (over this $1,000,000) that are payable to NEOs that have qualified for supplemental coverage under a death and dismemberment insurance policy available to the NEOs (other than Mr. Gustavson), 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 each retirement eligible grantee (Mr. Hull and Ms. Wasser), (1) options, restricted stock units and performance restricted stock units will continue to vest provided the grantee 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 the grantee 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 each of Mr. Hull and Ms. Wasser is the sum of (1) the amount that would be payable under the NEO's 2017 and 2018 PSU awards utilizing the assumptions set forth in footnotes (6) to (9) to the Outstanding Equity Awards at 2018 Fiscal Year End table and (2) the value of the NEO's unvested 2016 and 2017 performance restricted stock unit award as the one-year service requirement had been satisfied for that grant.

No value is included for options granted in 2014 through 2017 (even though the NEO had been employed one year following the date of grant), as their exercise prices were above the closing price of our common stock on December 31, 2018 ($14.68).

(7)

Mr. Hull transitioned to the non-officer role of Senior Advisor to the CEO on November 5, 2018. Subject to his continued compliance with his restrictive covenants and the execution and non-revocation of a release of claims, it is expected that, upon completion of his services as Senior Advisor, Mr. Hull will receive severance and benefits under his NEO Agreement dated February 23, 2016 ,as if the termination of employment was a termination by the Company without cause as shown under the column "Other Termination without Cause or for Good Reason" in the table above.

Pay Ratio Calculation

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 11,382 employees, which includes 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, 2017 in the United States and the United Kingdom, other than our CEO. These employees represented over 96% of our total employee base of 11,812 at December 31, 2017. As of December 31, 2018 we have 11,354 employees.

As of December 31, 2018, we had 434 employees in jurisdictions other than the U.S. and the U.K., who in the aggregate represent 3.82% of our total employee base and were excluded from calculating our non-CEO median employee as permitted by SEC rules. These employees are located as follows:



Country	Employees (#)	Employee Base (%)
Brazil	9	0.08%
Canada	34	0.30%
China	60	0.53%
France	26	0.23%
Germany	10	0.09%
Hong Kong	43	0.38%
India	19	0.17%
Netherlands	18	0.16%
Singapore	205	1.81%
Switzerland	10	0.09%
Total	434	3.82%

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 2018;


▪	cash incentive bonus earned for 2018 performance under our annual cash incentive plan and other cash-based incentive and commission plan payments made in 2018;


▪	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 1.3513, as in effect as of the last day of 2017. As our prior median employee was no longer employed with the Company at December 31, 2018, we selected a new median employee whose compensation is substantially similar to the original median employee based on the consistently applied compensation measure described above used to select the original median employee.

Based on the above, our non-CEO median employee is a full-time employee located in the United States with annual total compensation of $57,336 in fiscal year 2018. This amount includes a base salary of $55,666 and $1,670 in Company contributions to the Company's 401(k) plan. The non-CEO median employee did not participate in the Company's annual cash incentive plan, did not receive any other cash bonus or equity award in fiscal year 2018 and did not participate in the Realogy Pension Plan or Realogy Executive Deferred Compensation Plan.

Mr. Schneider's total compensation for fiscal year 2018 was $9,123,122 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 2018 is 1:159.

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 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 currently 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 2013 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

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.

Responsive to Investor Feedback. Our Board met with holders of a substantial majority of our outstanding stock as part of the 2018 Investor Outreach Program and our Compensation Committee incorporated investor feedback into the design of our 2019 executive compensation program.

Program Highlights. Highlights of our executive compensation program and measures demonstrating our pay-for-performance approach include the following:


▪	2018 executive compensation is tied principally to the achievement of an annual EBITDA target as well as the generation of strong cumulative free cash flow and stock price performance relative to an index of housing-related companies over a three-year period ending December 31, 2020.


▪	At least 50% of our annual long-term incentive program awards are granted in the form of performance share units that require achievement of robust Company goals over a three-year period.

Realizable Compensation Tracks Performance. Our rigorous performance-based program is designed so that CEO and other NEO realizable target direct compensation declines during periods of stockholder loss, including, in 2018:


▪	below target payouts for all NEOs under the 2018 annual Executive Incentive Plan (and, for Mr. Gustavson, the RPP);


▪	no payout for any participating NEO under the 2016-2018 performance share unit award tied to Relative Total Stockholder Return, which measured performance over the three-year period ended December 31, 2018;


▪	below target payout for all participating NEOs under the 2016-2018 performance share unit award tied to Cumulative Free Cash Flow, which measured performance over the three-year period ended December 31, 2018;


▪	realized value was 13% of target in the aggregate for earned 2016 performance share units awards after giving effect to the reduction in the Company's stock price from the February 2016 to December 31, 2018.

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 2018 compensation of our NEOs.

Recommendation for Approval

For the reasons discussed above, the Board recommends that stockholders vote in favor of the following resolution:

RESOLVED, that the Company's stockholders approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of the named executive officers described in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis and the tabular and related narrative disclosure regarding named executive officer compensation included in this proxy statement pursuant to the compensation disclosure rules of the SEC.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS A VOTE FOR

THE APPROVAL OF THE COMPENSATION OF OUR NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS.

PROPOSAL 3:

ADVISORY VOTE ON THE FREQUENCY OF THE ADVISORY VOTE ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

As required pursuant to Section 14A of the Securities Exchange Act, our Board is asking stockholders to cast a non-binding, advisory vote on how frequently we should have a Say-on-Pay Vote, such as Proposal 2 above, in the future.

After consideration of the various frequency levels, the Board has determined that a Say-on-Pay Vote should be held every year and, therefore, the Board is recommending that stockholders vote that the Say-on-Pay Vote be held EVERY YEAR.

The Board believes that holding a Say-on-Pay Vote every year will allow our stockholders to provide us with direct input on our compensation strategy and practices and timely stockholder feedback may be taken into consideration as part of the compensation review process.

Because your vote is advisory, it will not be binding upon the Board. However, the Board values the opinions expressed by stockholders in these votes and will take into account the outcome of the vote when determining how frequently the Say-on-Pay Vote should be conducted in the future.

Please note that you are being asked to vote on one of four choices (every year, every two years, every three years or abstain) and that you are not voting to approve or disapprove the Board’s recommendation. The frequency which receives the highest number of votes cast by stockholders will be considered by the Board as the frequency that has been selected by stockholders.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS A VOTE

TO HOLD THE SAY-ON-PAY VOTE EVERY YEAR

PROPOSAL 4:

APPROVAL OF AN AMENDMENT TO OUR CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION TO ELIMINATE THE SUPERMAJORITY VOTING REQUIREMENTS TO AMEND THE CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION AND BYLAWS

The Board, after careful consideration, recommends that our stockholders approve an amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation to eliminate the supermajority voting requirements to amend the Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws of the Company.

Currently, the affirmative vote of holders of 75% of our outstanding common stock is required to modify, amend or repeal, the Certificate of Incorporation or adopt, amend, alter or repeal the Bylaws.

If approved, the amendments to the Certificate of Incorporation proposed under this Proposal 2 would reduce the voting requirements for these actions to a majority of the voting power of all outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, voting together as a single class.

This proposal is the product of the Board’s ongoing review of corporate governance matters, including feedback that the Board received in its 2018 Investor Outreach Program. In making its recommendation, the Board recognized that current corporate governance best practices favor a majority voting requirement for stockholders to amend the Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws and concluded that the elimination of these supermajority voting requirements will reinforce the Board's accountability to our stockholders and provide our stockholders with greater ability to participate in Realogy’s corporate governance.

As amended, Article XII would read as follows, with additions indicated by bold underlining and deletions by strike-out:

The Corporation reserves the right at any time from time to time to amend, alter, change or repeal any provision contained in this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, and any other provisions authorized by the laws of the State of Delaware at the time in force may be added or inserted, in the manner now or hereafter prescribed by law; and all rights, preferences and privileges of whatsoever nature conferred upon stockholders, directors or any other persons whomsoever by and pursuant to this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation in its present form or as hereafter amended are granted subject to the right reserved in this Article.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, the affirmative vote of the holders of at least 75% in a majority of the voting power of all the shares of the Corporation entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, voting together as a single class, shall be required to modify, amend or repeal, this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation. In furtherance and not in limitation of the powers conferred upon it by the laws of the State of Delaware, the Board of Directors shall have the power or to adopt, amend, alter or repeal the Bylaws. The Bylaws may be adopted, amended, altered or repealed by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least 75% of the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding.

The form of Certificate of Incorporation, marked to show the proposed amendments to Article XII above as well as the other amendments to the Certificate of Incorporation proposed in Proposal 5 in this proxy statement, is attached as Annex C.

PROPOSAL 5:

APPROVAL OF AMENDMENTS TO OUR CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION TO ELIMINATE OUTDATED LANGUAGE RELATED TO BOARD CLASSIFICATION

In 2014, our stockholders approved amendments to our Certificate of Incorporation to declassify our Board over a three-year period, commencing at the 2015 Annual Meeting of Stockholders and completed at the 2017 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. Since the 2017 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, all Directors have been elected annually.

The Board, after careful consideration, recommends that our stockholders approve amendments to our Certificate of Incorporation to eliminate language relating to the declassification of our Board over the expired three-year phase-out period.

If approved, the amendments to the Certificate of Incorporation proposed under this Proposal 3 would result in the elimination of the following language in Article V of our Certificate of Incorporation related to classes of Directors that is no longer relevant as the Board has been fully declassified since the 2017 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (with additions indicated by bold underlining and deletions by strike-out):

Section 3.

Classes of Directors; Term of Office. Until the Corporation’s 2017 annual meeting of stockholders and subject to the succeeding provisions of this Section 3 and Sections 6 and 7 of this Article V, the Board shall be and is divided into three classes, designated: Class I, Class II and Class III. No decrease in the number of directors shall shorten the term of any incumbent director. At each annual meeting of stockholders prior to the 2015 annual meeting, each director shall serve for a term ending on the date of the third annual meeting following the annual meeting at which such director was elected; provided, that the term of each director shall continue until the election and qualification of his successor and be subject to his earlier death, resignation or removal. At each annual meeting of stockholders commencing with the 2015 annual meeting of stockholders, directors elected to succeed those directors whose terms expire at such annual meeting Directors shall be elected for a term expiring at the next annual meeting of stockholders; provided, that the term of each director shall continue until the election and qualification of his successor and be subject to his earlier death, resignation or removal. Any director elected prior to the 2015 annual meeting, subject to such director’s earlier death, resignation or removal, shall hold office for the term to which such director has been elected, such that the term for the class of directors elected at the 2012 annual meeting shall expire at the 2015 annual meeting; the term for the class of directors elected at the 2013 annual meeting shall expire at the 2016 annual meeting; and the term for the class of directors elected at the 2014 annual meeting shall expire at the 2017 annual meeting. Commencing with the 2017 annual meeting of stockholders, the classification of the Board of Directors shall terminate.

Section 6.

Vacancies. Any vacancy or newly created directorships in the Board, however occurring, shall be filled only by a majority of the directors then in office, although less than a quorum, or by a sole remaining director, except as otherwise provided by law, and shall not be filled by the stockholders of the Corporation. A director elected to fill a vacancy shall hold office (a) if appointed prior to the 2017 annual meeting of stockholders, for a term that shall coincide with the remaining term of that class in which the new directorship was created or vacancy exists or (b) if appointed at or following the 2017 annual meeting of stockholders, for a term expiring at the next annual meeting of stockholders, and in each case shall serve until such director’s successor shall have been elected and shall qualify, subject to such director's earlier death, resignation or removal.

If any applicable provision of the DGCL expressly confers power on stockholders to fill such a directorship at a special meeting of stockholders, such a directorship may be filled at such

Table of Contents

meeting only by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the votes which all the stockholders would be entitled to cast in any annual election of directors.

Section 7.

Removal and Resignation of Directors. Any or all of the directors of the Corporation then serving in a class that expires at the third annual meeting of stockholders following the election of such class may be removed from office at any time only for cause and all other All directors may be removed from office at any time with or without cause, provided that in either case, removal shall require the affirmative vote of the holders of at least seventy-five percent (75%) of the votes which all the stockholders would be entitled to cast in any annual election of directors. A director may resign at any time by filing his written resignation with the secretary of the Corporation.

Section 8.

Voting Rights of Preferred Stock. Notwithstanding the foregoing, whenever the holders of any one or more series of Preferred Stock issued by the Corporation shall have the right, voting separately as a series or separately as a class with one or more such other series, to elect directors at an annual or special meeting of stockholders, the election, term of office, removal, filling of vacancies and other features of such directorships shall be governed by the terms of this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (including any certificate of designations relating to any series of Preferred Stock) applicable thereto, and such directors so elected shall not be divided into classes pursuant to this Article unless expressly provided by such terms.

The form of Certificate of Incorporation, marked to show the proposed amendments to Article V above as well as the other amendments to the Certificate of Incorporation proposed in Proposal 4 in this proxy statement, is attached as Annex C.

If this proposed amendment is approved, it will become effective upon the filing of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation with the Delaware Secretary of State, which we intend to do promptly following the Annual Meeting. If the proposed amendment is not approved by stockholders, the amendment will not be implemented, and the existing language will remain in the Certificate of Incorporation but will have no effect as the language no longer has any applicability.

The proposed amendment requires approval by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least 75% of all of the shares entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS

A VOTE FOR THE AMENDMENT TO THE COMPANY’S CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION

TO ELIMINATE OUTDATED LANGUAGE RELATING TO BOARD CLASSIFICATION

PROPOSAL 6:

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 2019.

PwC served as our independent registered public accounting firm for 2018 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 2019, 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 available external data relating to audit quality, including recent Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) reports on PwC and its peers.


▪	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.

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 2015 and effective for PwC's audit of the Company's consolidated financial statements for fiscal year 2016. The Audit Committee's 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 2019.

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




	89

Table of Contents

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 2019 unless you indicate otherwise when you vote.

Representatives of PwC will be present at the 2019 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.

Disclosure About Fees

In addition to being retained as independent auditors to audit our consolidated financial statements, PwC provided various other services to us during 2018 and 2017.

The aggregate fees billed for professional services by PwC in 2018 and 2017 were as follows:



	2018		2017
Audit Fees⁽¹⁾	$	4,864,500	$	4,994,500
Audit-Related Fees⁽²⁾	150,000		50,000
Tax Fees⁽³⁾	4,000		19,000
Other⁽⁴⁾	5,000		5,000
Total	$	5,023,500	$	5,068,500

_______________


(1)	Represents fees for the audit of our consolidated financial statements, the audit of internal controls, the review of interim financial statements included in Form 10-Qs and other attest services primarily related to financial accounting consultations, comfort letters and SEC consents, regulatory and statutory audits and Franchise Disclosure Document filings in various states.


(2)	Represents fees primarily related to statutory audits not required by state or regulations, accounting consultation for contemplated transactions and agreed-upon procedures.


(3)	Represents fees related to tax compliance services.


(4)	Software license fee.

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 2018 and 2017 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.




	90

Table of Contents

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 2018 or 2017 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 four Directors, each of whom meets the independence standards of the NYSE and the SEC. Three members of the Audit Committee have been designated by the Board as "audit committee financial experts" and one of these three, Michael J. Williams, has extensive industry-related experience. The fourth 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, and data relating to 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. Less than 1% of the fees incurred by the Company for services provided by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP in fiscal year 2018 were for services that were not related to PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP's audit of the Company's consolidated financial statements.

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




	91

Table of Contents

as well as on the effectiveness of Realogy's internal control over financial reporting. The Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed Realogy's 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K, including the audited consolidated financial statements of Realogy for the year ended December 31, 2018, 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 2018, 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 internal auditor and PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, as appropriate, the audit scopes and plans of both PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP and the internal auditor;


▪	provided oversight with respect to the Company's policy with respect to derivatives;


▪	received reports on the Company's information security environment, including with respect to data privacy and information technology

initiatives as well as the internal and external cyber threat environment;


▪	regularly discussed with management and the internal auditor the Company’s risk assessment and risk management policies and practices;


▪	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 and Chief Audit Executive, who has a dotted-line reporting relationship to the Audit Committee;


▪	conferred regularly with the General Counsel on legal matters;


▪	continued to review periodically policies and procedures overseen by the Audit Committee, including the Company's Code of Ethics, Disclosure Committee Charter and Short-Term Cash Investment Policy;


▪	promoted a culture of high respect for the Company's audit and finance functions; and


▪	met in periodic executive sessions with management (including, individually, with the Company's Chief Financial Officer and Chief Ethics & Compliance Officer and Chief Audit Executive), the internal auditors and PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP.

Based on the Audit Committee's review and discussions described above, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board of Directors that the audited consolidated financial statements and management's report on internal control over financial reporting be included in Realogy's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

STOCKHOLDER PROPOSALS AND NOMINATIONS FOR DIRECTOR

Director Nominations for Inclusion in Proxy Materials (Proxy Access)

On February 25, 2019, our Board amended our Bylaws to implement proxy access. As amended, our Bylaws permit a stockholder, or a group of up to 20 stockholders, owning 3% or more of the Company’s outstanding common stock continuously for at least three years to nominate and include in our proxy materials director candidates constituting up to the greater of 2 nominees or 20% of the Board, provided that the stockholder(s) and the director nominee(s) satisfy the requirements specified in our Bylaws.

Eligible stockholders who wish to have a director nominee included in our proxy statement relating to the annual meeting of stockholders to be held in 2020 must deliver a written notice, containing the information specified in our Bylaws regarding the stockholder(s) and the proposed nominee(s), to us by November 21, 2019, but not before October 22, 2019, which is not less than 120 days nor more than 150 days prior March 20, 2020, the first anniversary of the date that we first distributed our proxy statement to stockholders for the 2019 Annual Meeting.

The requirements for a stockholder nomination using proxy access are more fully set forth in Section 2.12 of our Bylaws, and the foregoing summary is qualified by reference to the applicable sections of our Bylaws.

ANNEX A

DEFINITION & RECONCILIATION OF OPERATING EBITDA

Operating EBITDA. 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, losses on the early extinguishment of debt, asset 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, losses on the early extinguishment of debt, former parent legacy items, asset 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.

Cumulative Free Cash Flow Definition and Calculation under the 2016 Performance Share Unit Award

Cumulative Free Cash Flow means during the net income (loss) attributable to the Company for the three-year period ended December 31, 2018 (the "Performance Period"), adjusted for: income tax (benefit) expense, net of payments; interest expense, net of payments; depreciation and amortization; restructuring costs and former parent legacy costs (benefits), net of payments; loss on the early extinguishment of debt; working capital changes; and relocation assets, net of changes in securitization obligations. The foregoing adjustments to net income (loss) attributable to the Company shall be made in a manner consistent with the presentation of free cash flow in Table 7 to the Company’s press release dated February 24, 2016 with the exception that capital expenditures shall not be deducted from net income (loss). In addition, Cumulative Free Cash Flow for the 2016 PSU awards was permitted to be adjusted for unusual, non-recurring or extraordinary corporate transactions, events or developments or changes in accounting principles and could be increased or decreased, as appropriate, for certain items, such as those that differed from the cash amounts assumed in the forecast underlying the target, including the items reported in the table below.

INDEMNIFICATION

(a) Each person who was or is made a party or is threatened to be made a party to or is otherwise involved in any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (hereinafter a "proceeding"), by reason of the fact that he or she or a person of whom he or she is the legal representative is or was, at any time during which this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation is in effect (whether or not such person continues to serve in such capacity at the time any indemnification or payment of expenses pursuant hereto is sought or at the time any proceeding relating thereto exists or is brought), a director or officer of the Corporation or is or was at any such time serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, trustee, employee or agent of another corporation or of a partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, including service with respect to employee benefit plans maintained or sponsored by the Corporation (hereinafter, an "indemnitee"), whether the basis of such proceeding is alleged action in an official capacity as a director, officer, trustee, employee or agent or in any other capacity while serving as a director, officer, trustee, employee or agent, shall be (and shall be deemed to have a contractual right to be) indemnified and held harmless by the Corporation




	C-5

Table of Contents

(and any successor of the Corporation by merger or otherwise) to the fullest extent authorized by the DGCL as the same exists or may hereafter be amended or modified from time to time (but, in the case of any such amendment or modification, only to the extent that such amendment or modification permits the Corporation to provide greater indemnification rights than said law permitted the Corporation to provide prior to such amendment or modification), against all expense, liability and loss (including attorneys' fees, judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes or penalties and amounts paid or to be paid in settlement) incurred or suffered by such person in connection therewith and such indemnification shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director, officer, trustee, employee or agent and shall inure to the benefit of his or her heirs, executors and administrators; provided, however, that except as provided in paragraph (c) of this Article X, the Corporation shall indemnify any such person seeking indemnification in connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such person only if such proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized by the Board. The right to indemnification conferred in this Article X shall include the right, without the need for any action by the Board, to be paid by the Corporation (and any successor of the Corporation by merger or otherwise) the expenses incurred in defending any such proceeding in advance of its final disposition, such advances to be paid by the Corporation within twenty (20) days after the receipt by the Corporation of a statement or statements from the claimant requesting such advance or advances from time to time; provided, however, that if the DGCL requires, the payment of such expenses incurred by a director or officer in his or her capacity as a director or officer (and not in any other capacity in which service was or is rendered by such person while a director or officer, including, without limitation, service to an employee benefit plan) shall be made only upon delivery to the Corporation of an undertaking (hereinafter, the "undertaking") by or on behalf of such director or officer, to repay all amounts so advanced if it shall ultimately be determined by final judicial decision from which there is no further right of appeal (a "final disposition") that such director or officer is not entitled to be indemnified for such expenses under this Article X or otherwise. The rights conferred upon indemnitees in this Article X shall be contract rights between the Corporation and each indemnitee to whom such rights are extended that vest at the commencement of such person's service to or at the request of the Corporation and all such rights shall continue as to an indemnitee who has ceased to be a director or officer of the Corporation or ceased to serve at the Corporation's request as a director, officer, trustee, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, as described herein, and shall inure to the benefit of the indemnitee's heirs, executors and administrators.

(b) To obtain indemnification under this Article X, a claimant shall submit to the Corporation a written request, including therein or therewith such documentation and information as is reasonably available to the claimant and is reasonably necessary to determine whether and to what extent the claimant is entitled to indemnification. Upon written request by a claimant for indemnification pursuant to the first sentence of this paragraph (b), a determination, if required by applicable law, with respect to the claimant's entitlement thereto shall be made as follows if there is a dispute between the Corporation and the claimant with respect to the claimant’s rights to indemnification hereunder: (i) if requested by the claimant, by Independent Counsel (as hereinafter defined), or (ii) if no request is made by the claimant for a determination by Independent Counsel, (A) by the Board by a majority vote of a quorum consisting of Disinterested Directors (as hereinafter defined), (B) if a quorum of the Board consisting of Disinterested Directors is not obtainable or, even if obtainable, such quorum of Disinterested Directors so directs, by Independent Counsel (as hereinafter defined) in a written opinion to the Board, a copy of which shall be delivered to the claimant, or (C) if a quorum of Disinterested Directors so directs, by a majority of the stockholders of the Corporation. In the event the determination of entitlement to indemnification is to be made by Independent Counsel, the Independent Counsel shall be selected by the Board unless there shall have occurred within two years prior to the date of the commencement of the action, suit or proceeding for which indemnification is claimed a "Change in Control" as defined in award agreement to the Realogy Holdings Corp. 2012 Long-Term Incentive Plan in which case the Independent Counsel shall be selected by the claimant unless the claimant shall request that such selection be made by the Board. If it is so determined that the claimant is entitled to indemnification, payment to the claimant shall be made within ten (10) days after such determination.

(c) If a claim under paragraph (a) of this Article X is not paid in full by the Corporation within thirty (30) days after a written claim pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Article X has been received by the Corporation (except in the case of a claim for advancement of expenses, for which the applicable period is twenty (20) days), the claimant may at any time thereafter bring suit against the Corporation to recover the unpaid amount of the claim and, if successful in whole or in part, the claimant shall be entitled to be paid also the expense of prosecuting such claim. It shall be a defense to any such action that the claimant has not met the standard of conduct which makes it permissible under the DGCL for the Corporation to indemnify the claimant for the amount claimed or that the claimant is not entitled to the requested advancement of expenses, but (except where the required undertaking, if any, has not been tendered to the Corporation) the burden of proving such defense shall be on the Corporation.

Neither the failure of the Corporation (including its Board, Independent Counsel or stockholders) to have made a determination prior to the commencement of such action that indemnification of the claimant is proper in the circumstances because he or she has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in the DGCL, nor an actual determination by the Corporation (including its Board, Independent Counsel or stockholders) that the claimant has not met such applicable standard of conduct, shall be a defense to the action or create a presumption that the claimant has not met the applicable standard of conduct.
