ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS

June 14, 2024

Proxy Summary

This summary highlights certain information contained elsewhere in our Proxy Statement. This summary does not contain all the information that you should consider, and you should carefully read the entire Proxy Statement and our 2023 Annual Report to Stockholders before voting. The Notice of Annual Meeting of Stockholders, the accompanying Proxy Statement and our 2023 Annual Report to Stockholders are available at www.p10alts.com and www.proxypush.com/PX and are first being made available to stockholders commencing on or about April 24, 2024 and mailed on or about April 26, 2024.

About the Meeting

What is the date, time and place of the annual meeting?

P10 Inc.’s 2024 Annual Stockholders’ Meeting will be held on Friday, June 14, 2024 beginning at 9:00 a.m., local time, at the Westin New York Grand Central, Ambassador Meeting Room, located at 212 East 42nd Street, New York, NY 10017.

What is the purpose of the annual meeting?

At the annual meeting, stockholders will act upon the matters outlined in the notice of meeting on the cover page of this Proxy Statement, consisting of (1) the election of Class III directors; (2); an amendment to the P10, Inc. 2021 Incentive Plan (the "2021 Plan") to increase the number of shares issuable under 2021 Plan by 11,000,000 shares; (3) the ratification of the appointment of KPMG LLP as P10’s independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2024; and (4) any other matters that properly come before the meeting.

What are the voting rights of the holders of our common stock?

Each share of our Class A common stock will entitle its holder to one vote on all matters to be voted on by stockholders generally.

Each share of our Class B common stock will entitle its holder to ten votes until a Sunset becomes effective. After a Sunset becomes effective, each share of our Class B common stock will automatically convert into Class A common stock. The Class B Holders have approximately 91% of the combined voting power of our common stock.

A “Sunset” is triggered by any of the earlier of the following:

Holders of Class B common stock may elect to convert shares of Class B common stock on a one-for-one basis into Class A common stock at any time. Holders of our Class A common stock and Class B common stock will vote together as a single class on all matters presented to our stockholders for their vote or approval, except as set forth in our amended and restated certificate of incorporation or as otherwise required by applicable law.

P10, Inc. entered into a controlled company agreement (the “Controlled Company Agreement”), with principals of 210 Capital, LLC (“210 Capital”) and certain of their affiliates (the “210 Group”), RCP Advisors 2, LLC and RCP Advisors 3, LLC (collectively, “RCP Advisors”) and certain of their affiliates (the “RCP Group”), and TrueBridge Capital Partners LLC and certain of their affiliates (the “TrueBridge Group”), granting each party certain board designation rights. So long as the 210 Group and any of their permitted transferees continue to collectively hold a combined voting power of (A) at least 10% of the shares of common stock outstanding immediately following the closing date of our initial public offering (the “Closing Date”), P10, Inc. shall include in its slate of nominees two (2) directors designated by the 210 Group and (B) less than 10% but at least 5% of the shares of common stock outstanding immediately following the Closing Date, one (1) director designated by the 210 Group. So long as the RCP Group and any of their permitted transferees continue to collectively hold a combined voting power of at least 5% of the shares of common stock outstanding immediately following our initial public offering, P10, Inc. shall include in its slate of nominees one (1) director designated by the RCP Group. So long as the TrueBridge Group and any of their permitted transferees continue to collectively hold a combined voting power of at least 5% of the shares of common stock outstanding immediately following our initial public offering, P10, Inc. shall include in its slate of nominees one (1) director designated by the TrueBridge Group.

---

The 210 Group, the RCP Group and TrueBridge Group have the right to designate two, one and one directors, respectively. In addition, the parties to our Controlled Company Agreement will agree to elect at least three directors who are not affiliated with any party to our Controlled Company Agreement and who satisfy the independence requirements applicable to audit committee members established pursuant to Rule 10A-3 under the Exchange Act. These board designation rights are subject to certain limitations and exceptions.

Who is entitled to vote at the meeting?

Only our stockholders of record at the close of business on April 18, 2024, the record date for the meeting, are entitled to receive notice of and to participate in the annual meeting. If you were a stockholder of record on that date, you will be entitled to vote all of the shares you held on that date at the meeting, or any postponement(s) or adjournment(s) of the meeting. As of the record date, there were 54,592,372 shares of Class A common stock outstanding and 58,430,223 shares of Class B common stock outstanding, all of which are entitled to be voted at the annual meeting. Whether or not you plan to attend the meeting, we encourage you to fill out and return the proxy card or vote by proxy over the telephone or on the Internet as instructed below to ensure your vote is counted.

A list of stockholders will be available at our headquarters at 4514 Cole Ave, Suite 1600, Dallas, TX 75205 for a period of ten days prior to the annual meeting and at the annual meeting itself for examination by any stockholder.

What is the difference between a stockholder of record and a beneficial owner of shares held in street name?

Who can attend the meeting?

All stockholders as of the record date, or their duly appointed proxies, may attend the meeting. Please also note that if you hold your shares in “street name” (that is, through a broker or other nominee), you will need to bring a copy of a brokerage statement reflecting your stock ownership as of the record date, to attend the meeting, and you will need to bring a signed proxy from your broker in order to vote your shares at the meeting.

What constitutes a quorum?

The presence at the meeting, in person or by proxy, of the holders of common stock representing a majority of the combined voting power of the outstanding shares of stock on the record date will constitute a quorum, permitting the meeting to conduct its business. As of the record date, there were 54,592,372 shares of Class A common stock outstanding and 58,430,223 shares of Class B common stock outstanding, all of which are entitled to be voted at the annual meeting, and therefore holders of common stock representing 319,447,302 combined voting power will constitute a quorum.

What vote is required to approve each item?

The inspector of election for the annual meeting shall determine the number of shares of common stock represented at the meeting, the existence of a quorum and the validity and effect of proxies, and shall count and tabulate ballots and votes and determine the results thereof. Proxies received but marked as abstentions and broker non-votes will be included in the calculation of the number of shares considered to be present at the meeting for purposes of determining a quorum. If less than a majority of the combined voting power of the outstanding shares of common stock is represented at the annual meeting, a majority of the shares so represented may adjourn the annual meeting from time to time without further notice.

The table below describes the vote requirements and the effect of abstentions and broker non-votes, as prescribed under our bylaws, the rules of the New York Stock Exchange and Delaware law, for the election of directors and the approval of the other items on the agenda for the annual meeting.

Proposal	Vote Required	Effect of Abstentions and Broker Non-Votes*
Proposal 1: Election of the three nominees to serve as Class III directors of the Company	Plurality of the votes cast.	Abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of the election.
Proposal 2: Approval of the amendment to the P10, Inc. 2021 Incentive Plan to increase the number of shares issuable under the 2021 Plan	Affirmative vote of the holders of a majority in combined voting power of the votes cast.	Abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome.
Proposal 3: Ratification of the appointment of KPMG LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for fiscal 2024	The affirmative vote of a majority of the combined voting power of the shares of common stock present at the meeting in person or by proxy and entitled to vote.	Abstentions will have the effect of a vote against.

___________________

* A broker non-vote occurs when a broker submits a proxy but does not vote on a proposal because it is not a “routine” item under NYSE rules and the broker has not received voting instructions from the beneficial owner of the shares. Broker non-votes will not be counted as “votes cast” with respect to Proposals 1 or 2. Your broker may vote without your instructions only on Proposal 3—Ratification of the appointment of KPMG LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for fiscal 2024.

What are the Board’s recommendations?

As more fully discussed under Summary of Matters to be Voted On, our Board of Directors recommends a vote: (i) FOR the election of the three nominees to serve as Class III directors of the Company for a term of three years; (ii) FOR the approval of the amendment to the P10, Inc. 2021 Incentive Plan to increase the number of shares issuable under the 2021 Plan by 11,000,000 shares; and (iii) FOR the ratification of the appointment of KPMG LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024.

Unless contrary instructions are indicated on the enclosed proxy, all shares represented by valid proxies received pursuant to this solicitation (and which have not been revoked in accordance with the procedures set forth below) will be voted: (i) FOR the election of each of the three nominees to serve as Class III directors of the Company for a term of three years; (ii) FOR the approval of the amendment to the P10, Inc. 2021 Incentive Plan to increase the number of shares issuable under the 2021 Plan by 11,000,000 shares; (iii) FOR the ratification of the appointment of KPMG LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024, and (iv) in accordance with the recommendation of our Board of Directors, on all other matters as may properly come before the annual meeting. In the event a stockholder specifies a different choice by means of the enclosed proxy, such shares will be voted in accordance with the specification made.

How do I vote?

If you are a holder of record (that is, if your shares are registered in your own name with our transfer agent), you may vote using the enclosed proxy card. Voting instructions are provided on the proxy card contained in the proxy materials. Holders of record may vote their shares by regular mail, by phone at 1-866-983-6559, online at www.proxypush.com/PX, or in person at the Annual Meeting.

If you are a street name holder (that is, if you hold your shares through a bank, broker or other holder of record), you must vote in accordance with the voting instruction form provided by your bank, broker or other holder of record. The availability of telephone or internet voting will depend upon your bank’s, broker’s, or other holder of record’s voting process.

If you come to the Annual Meeting, you can, of course, vote in person. If you are a street name holder and wish to vote at the meeting, you must first obtain a proxy from your bank, broker or other holder of record authorizing you to vote.

Can I change my vote after I return my proxy card?

Yes. The giving of a proxy does not eliminate the right to vote in person should any stockholder giving the proxy so desire. Stockholders have an unconditional right to revoke their proxy at any time prior to the exercise of that proxy, by voting in person at the annual meeting, by filing a written revocation or duly executed proxy bearing a later date with our Secretary at our headquarters.

Who pays for costs relating to the proxy materials and annual meeting of stockholders?

The costs of preparing, assembling and mailing this Proxy Statement, the Notice of Annual Meeting of Stockholders and the enclosed Annual Report and proxy card, along with the cost of posting the proxy materials on our website, are to be borne by us. In addition to the use of mail, our directors, officers and employees may solicit proxies personally and by telephone, facsimile and other electronic means. They will receive no compensation in addition to their regular salaries. We may request banks, brokers and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries to forward copies of the proxy material to their principals and to request authority for the execution of proxies. We may reimburse these persons for their expenses in so doing. We have retained InvestorCom, LLC to aid in the solicitation at an estimated cost of $5,000 plus reimbursable out-of-pocket expenses.

Vote Required

Each Class III director will be elected by a plurality of the votes cast at the annual meeting (assuming a quorum is present). The three nominees for Class III director receiving the highest number of affirmative votes will be elected. Consequently, any shares not voted at the annual meeting, whether due to abstentions, broker non-votes or otherwise, will have no impact on the election of the directors. Shares of common stock represented by executed, but unmarked, proxy cards will be voted in favor of the election as directors of the persons named as nominees in this Proxy Statement; provided that, if you hold your shares of our common stock through a broker-dealer, bank nominee, custodian or other securities intermediary, the intermediary will not vote those shares for the election of any nominee for director unless you give the intermediary specific voting instructions on a timely basis directing the intermediary to vote for such nominee.

Each of the foregoing nominees has consented to be named in this Proxy Statement and agreed to serve as a director if elected. Our Board of Directors has no reason to believe that the listed nominees will be unable or unwilling to serve as directors if elected. However, if any nominee should be unable to serve or will not serve, then the shares represented by proxies received will be voted for another nominee selected by our Board of Directors.

 

	Recommendation of the Board of Directors The Board of Directors unanimously recommends a vote “FOR” the election of each nominee for Class III Director to serve a term of three years under Proposal One

Board Meetings; Corporate Governance; Committees and Membership

Independent Directors

Our Board of Directors has determined that Mr. Stewart, Mr. Gwilliam, Mr. Barnes, and Ms. Benford are “independent” as defined under the rules of the NYSE. In making this determination, the Board of Directors considered the relationships that Mr. Stewart, Mr. Gwilliam, Mr. Barnes, and Ms. Benford have with our Company and all other facts and circumstances that the Board of Directors deemed relevant in determining their independence, including ownership interests in us and, in the case of Mr. Gwilliam, the transactions involving Keystone Capital Management and its affiliates described in the section titled "Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions."

We are a “controlled company” under the rules of the NYSE by virtue of the Controlled Company Agreement, and therefore qualify for an exemption from the requirement that our Board of Directors consist of a majority of independent directors, that we establish a Compensation Committee consisting solely of independent directors and that our director nominees be selected or recommended by independent directors.

Board Leadership Structure

Our board annually reviews its leadership structure to evaluate whether the structure remains appropriate for the Company. Our board does not have a policy on whether the role of Chairman and Chief Executive Officer should be separate or combined. In October 2023, our board determined it was in the Company’s best interest to transition the leadership of the Company and separate the role of Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. The Board appointed Mr. Sarsfield as the Company’s new Chief Executive Officer and Messrs. Alpert and Webb as Executive Chairman and Executive Vice Chairman, respectively. Our board may make further changes to the Company’s leadership structure in the future.

Executive Sessions

In order to promote open discussion among independent directors, our board holds executive sessions of independent directors at least quarterly. These executive sessions are chaired by a director selected by the independent directors during such sessions.

Board Qualifications & Diversity

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee periodically reviews, and recommends to our board, the skills, experience, characteristics and other criteria for identifying and evaluating directors. Our board expects directors to be open and forthright, to develop a deep understanding of the Company’s business, and to exercise sound judgment and courage in fulfilling their oversight responsibilities. Directors should embrace the Company’s values and culture and should possess the highest levels of integrity.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee evaluates the composition of our board annually to assess whether the skills, experience, characteristics and other criteria established by our board are currently represented on our board as a whole, and in individual directors, and to assess the criteria that may be needed in the future in light of the Company’s anticipated needs. Our Board of Directors and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee also actively seek to achieve a diversity of occupational and personal backgrounds on the Board, including diversity with respect to demographics such as gender, race, ethnic and national background, geography, age and sexual orientation.

In April 2024, our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee recommended, and our Board approved, appointing Ms. Benford to the Board. Ms. Benford brings a diversity of skills and background to the Board, particularly given her 30+ years of financial services experience.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee reviews the qualifications of director candidates and incumbent directors in light of the criteria approved by our board and recommends the Company’s candidates to our board for election by the Company’s stockholders at the applicable annual meeting. We believe our board is well positioned to provide effective oversight and strategic advice to our management.

Procedures for Recommending Individuals to Serve as Directors

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee also considers director candidates recommended by our stockholders that are submitted in accordance with our amended and restated bylaws (“bylaws”). Any stockholder who wishes to propose director nominees for consideration by our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, but does not wish to present such proposal at an annual meeting of stockholders, may do so at any time by sending each proposed nominee’s name and a description of his or her qualifications for board membership to the chair of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee by sending an email to acoussens@p10alts.com or in writing, c/o our Secretary, at 4514 Cole Ave, Suite 1600, Dallas, TX, 75205. The recommendation should contain all of the information regarding the nominee required under the “advance notice” provisions of our bylaws (which can be provided free of charge upon request by writing to our Secretary at the address listed above). The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee evaluates nominee proposals submitted by stockholders in the same manner in which it evaluates other director nominees.

Director Compensation

Our policy is to not pay director compensation to directors who are also our employees. Our non-employee directors are paid an annual fee up to $175,000. In 2023, the annual fee of $150,000 was payable half in shares of restricted stock, and our directors were able to elect whether to receive the remaining half of their fees in shares of restricted stock, in cash, or in a combination of shares of restricted stock and cash. In the third quarter of 2023, our Board of Directors increased the annual fee to $175,000, and the additional $25,000 in fees were paid in cash. Any amount elected to be received in cash will be paid at the time of vesting of the accompanying restricted stock award. For 2024, the annual fee will be payable entirely in shares of restricted stock. In addition, all members of the Board of Directors are reimbursed for reasonable costs and expenses incurred in attending meetings of our Board of Directors.

The following table sets forth information regarding the compensation earned or received by each of our non-employee directors during fiscal year 2023. Because Ms. Benford joined the Board of Directors in April 2024, she did not receive compensation in 2023 and is not listed below.

The executive transition agreement is more fully described below.

Executive Chairman and Executive Vice Chairman Transition Agreements

On October 20, 2023, the Company entered into an executive transition agreement with each of Mr. Alpert and Mr. Webb (each, a “Transition Agreement”). Pursuant to the Transition Agreements, effective as of the October 23, 2023 (the “Effective Date”), Mr. Alpert and Mr. Webb each ceased to serve as Co-Chief Executive Officer, and Mr. Alpert and Mr. Webb were appointed as Executive Chairman and Executive Vice Chairman, respectively, through the first anniversary of the Effective Date.

William F. Souder

On May 12, 2023, P10 entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Souder (the “Souder Employment Agreement”), pursuant to which Mr. Souder serves as the Chief Operating Officer of P10. The Souder Employment Agreement superseded any prior agreements between Mr. Souder and the Company, P10, and RCP Advisors 3, LLC. Pursuant to the terms of the Souder Employment Agreement, P10 shall pay Mr. Souder an annual rate of base salary of $600,000 in substantially equal monthly or more frequent installments. In addition, Mr. Souder is eligible to receive an annual bonus based on P10’s performance and Mr. Souder’s achievement of performance benchmarks, jointly set by the Board and Mr. Souder. The annual bonus will be paid in either cash or restricted stock units. Subject to the Board’s discretion and approval, the target amount of Mr. Souder’s annual bonus is 100% of his base salary. The Souder Employment Agreement provided that the aggregate value of the annual bonus and additional equity grants, including carried interest awards, for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2023, shall be substantially equivalent to the aggregate value of the amounts received by Mr. Souder for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2022. Mr. Souder is also entitled to fringe benefits and perquisites consistent with the practice of P10 and to participate in all employee benefit plans, practices and programs maintained by P10 and reimbursement for all reasonable and necessary out-of-pocket business, entertainment, and travel expenses incurred by Mr. Souder in connection with the performance of his duties. The Souder Employment Agreement is for a term of one year, with automatic renewal for additional one year periods unless P10 or Executive deliver written notice of non-renewal to the other party at least ninety (90) days prior to the expiration of the term.

On February 9, 2024, the Company announced that Mr. Souder will be retiring from the Company in May of 2024 and the Company provided notice of non-renewal of the Souder Employment Agreement. In conjunction therewith, on February 6, 2024, the Company delivered written notice of non-renewal to Mr. Souder under his employment agreement, and Mr. Souder’s employment will end as of the expiration of the initial term of the employment agreement on May 11, 2024, unless terminated earlier in accordance with the provisions of the employment agreement. In connection with Mr. Souder’s retirement he will be eligible for severance in accordance with the Souder Employment Agreement as described below under “Termination Payments.”

Termination Payments and Other Benefits

Under the Sarsfield Employment Agreement, upon a termination by the Company without cause, or if Mr. Sarsfield resigns for good reason, then Mr. Sarsfield will be entitled to receive, in addition to any accrued and unpaid benefits: (i) a lump sum payment equal to one and one half (1.5) times his then-current base salary; (ii) a lump sum payment equal to one and one half (1.5) times his then-current annual cash bonus; and (iii) immediate vesting of any and all outstanding equity awards and all carried interests in certain investment vehicles controlled by the Company. The foregoing severance payments would be conditioned upon Mr. Sarsfield’s execution, non-revocation and delivery of a general release of the Company and its affiliates.

Under each of the Coussens Employment Agreement and the Souder Employment Agreement, upon a termination by the Company without Cause (including a notice of non-renewal) or by the executive’s resignation for Good Reason, then Ms. Coussens and Mr. Souder, as applicable would be entitled to receive the following: (i) a severance payment, payable in a lump sum, equal to 12 months’ salary; (ii) the target amount of the executive’s annual bonus; (iii) reimbursement of COBRA premiums for up to 12 months; and (iv) immediate vesting of any equity granted to such executive. If such termination occurs within 18 months following a Change in Control (or during such time in which the Company is party to a letter of intent or definitive agreement that contemplates a Change in Control), then the severance payment will be increased from 12 months’ salary to 18 months’ salary and the period for which the executive is eligible to receive reimbursement of COBRA premiums will be increased from 12 months to 18 months.

In addition, in connection with his retirement, Mr. Souder will be granted options to purchase 34,608 shares of common stock of the Company and $400,000 of carried interest. It is also expected that pursuant to the Separation Agreement, Mr. Souder will provide ongoing consulting and transition service through March 1, 2025 and in connection with such services be eligible for consideration for an additional carried interest award of up to $250,000.

All termination payments and other benefits described herein are subject to the applicable executive executing and delivering a general release of the Company and its affiliates in a form that is satisfactory to the Company.

Equity Award Agreements

On March 9, 2023, Mr. Alpert, Mr. Webb, and Mr. Souder were granted 228,659 stock options and Ms. Coussens was granted 55,325 stock options with an exercise price of $9.93. These options all vest on the fifth anniversary of the grant date subject to continued service with P10 through such date and subject to all other terms of their stock option agreement and the 2021 Incentive Plan. However, on October 23, 2023, Messrs. Alpert and Webb's options were fully vested in accordance with their transition agreement. Also on this date, Mr. Alpert, Mr. Webb, and Mr. Souder were all granted 143,860 time-based restricted stock units and Ms. Coussens was granted 12,137 restricted stock units, all of which vested on the first anniversary of the grant date, subject to the named executive officer's continued service with P10 through such date and subject to other terms of grant and our 2021 Incentive Plan. Similarly, Mr. Alpert and Mr. Webb's shares were fully vested on October 23, 2023.

On October 23, 2023, in accordance with their transition agreement, Mr. Webb and Mr. Alpert were granted 196,434 stock options with an exercise price of $9.17. The options were fully vested on the date of grant. Also in accordance with the transition agreement, Mr. Alpert and Mr. Webb were granted 365,592 fully vested restricted stock units each and 10,753 and 107,527 restricted stock units, respectively, that vest the on the first anniversary of the grant date and on July 1, 2025, respectively.

Carried Interest Compensation

The Company and/or certain executives and employees receive an allocation of performance-based fees, commonly referred to as “carried interest”, from limited partners in certain investment funds that are controlled by P10. The carried interest may be allocated to certain employees from time to time, including our named executive officers, as a form of long-term incentive compensation, fostering alignment of interest with our clients and investors, and retaining key investment professionals. Cash distributions received in 2023 and 2022 attributable to carried interests allocated to our named executive officers are reflected in the “All Other Compensation” column of the Summary Compensation Table above.

Benefits

We offer competitive benefits packages that reflect the needs of our workforce. In the U.S., we provide all full-time employees medical, dental, and vision benefits, life and disability coverage, parental leave, education reimbursement, and paid time off. We provide retirement benefits including a 401(k)-match program. In addition to base salary, our employees participate in incentive plans that support our organizational philosophy of pay and performance. Our executive compensation program is designed to align incentives with achievement of the Company’s strategic plan and both short- and long-term operating objectives.

Impact of Tax Treatment on Compensation

Section 162(m) of the Code generally denies a federal income tax deduction for compensation in excess of $1,000,000 per year paid to certain executive employees, which may limit our ability to fully deduct compensation paid to certain of our executives. Although the Compensation Committee considers the deductibility of expenses when it makes compensation decisions, the Compensation Committee believes in maintaining the flexibility and competitive effectiveness of the executive compensation program and tax deductibility is only one, of many factors, considered in the overall compensation program.

Outstanding Equity Awards at December 31, 2023

The following table sets forth information on outstanding stock options, restricted stock, and restricted stock unit awards held by the named executive officers at December 31, 2023, including the number of shares underlying both exercisable and unexercisable portions of each stock option, the exercise price and expiration date of each outstanding option and the market value of shares of restricted stock, and restricted stock units that have not vested based on the closing market price for our common stock on December 29, 2023, the last business day of our fiscal year, of $10.22.

Compensation Policies and Practices and Risk

We monitor and assess periodically our enterprise risks, including risks from our compensation policies and practices for our employees. Based on our periodic assessments, we believe that risks arising from our compensation policies and practices for our employees, including our named executive officers, are not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on our Company.

We believe our compensation policies and practices provide an appropriate balance between short-term and long-term incentives, encourage our employees to produce superior results for our Company without having to take excessive or inappropriate risks to do so, and continue to serve the best interests our Company and stockholders

Compensation Committee Processes and Procedures

Under our Compensation Committee charter, the Committee annually reviews and approves corporate goals and objectives relevant to CEO compensation, evaluates the CEO’s performance in light of those goals and objectives, and determines and approves the CEO’s overall compensation levels based on this evaluation. The Committee may submit its determination of the CEO’s overall compensation levels to the non-management members of the Board for ratification, but reserves the right to retain or reconsider its original determination in the event the non-management members of the Board fail to ratify such original determination. Under our Compensation Committee charter, at least annually, the Committee reviews and approves the annual base salaries and annual incentive opportunities of the CEO and executive officers. Our CEO’s recommend the compensation of the executive officers of the Company, other than that of the CEO, to the Compensation Committee. Such recommendation is reviewed by the Compensation Committee, which will then determine the compensation of the executive officers. The Compensation Committee determines the compensation of our CEOs in an executive session at which our CEO is not present.

Our Compensation Committee charter states that our Compensation Committee shall review and approve all other incentive awards and opportunities, including both cash-based and equity-based awards and opportunities, of the CEO and executive officers. Our Compensation Committee charter providers that the Committee may delegate to its Chairman or other members such powers and authority as the Committee deems to be appropriate, except such powers and authority required by law to be exercised by the whole Committee.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

Each of Scott Gwilliam, Robert Stewart, Jr. and Travis Barnes served on the Compensation Committee during fiscal 2023. No member of the Compensation Committee was, at any time during fiscal 2023 or at any other time, an officer or employee of P10, and, other than disclosed in the section titled "Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions", no member of this Committee had any relationship with P10 requiring disclosure under Item 404 of Regulation S-K under the Exchange Act. No executive officer of P10 has served on the Board of Directors or Compensation Committee of any other entity that has or has had one or more executive officers who served as a member of the Compensation Committee during fiscal 2023.

 

PROPOSAL 2:

Approval of Amendment to the 2021 Incentive Plan to Increase

 

On February 27, 2024, the Board approved an amendment to the 2021 Plan (the “Plan Amendment”), described in this Proposal 2, to increase the aggregate number of shares of common stock of the Company (“Common Stock”) reserved and available for issuance under the 2021 Plan by 11,000,000 shares (subject to adjustment as provided in the 2021 Plan), subject to the approval of our stockholders at our annual meeting. If our stockholders do not approve the Plan Amendment, the number of shares of Common Stock remaining available under the 2021 Plan would be insufficient to fully cover the short-term and long-term needs for our equity incentive program for employees, directors and officers as we currently do, which we believe is necessary to continue recruiting, retaining and motivating high-performing, revenue-generating and client-facing individuals to achieve our objectives and therefore in the best interests of our stockholders. The text of the Plan Amendment is attached as Appendix A to this Proxy Statement.

 

As of April 18, 2024, there were 984,345 of our Common Stock remaining for issuance under the 2021 Plan, not including 2,470,917 that have been granted to employees of the Company and its subsidiaries, the exercise of which is contingent on stockholder approval of the Plan Amendment.

 

Reasons for the Increase in the Number of Shares

The use of stock- and cash-based awards under the 2021 Plan has been a key component of our compensation program. Cash- and stock-based compensation awards assist us in attracting, motivating, and retaining capable, talented individuals to serve in the capacity of employees, officers, directors and other individual service providers. The 2021 Plan prior to the currently proposed Plan Amendment authorized us to issue up to 12,000,000 shares of Common Stock plus the number of shares available for grant under the 2021 Plan as of the Effective Date (as defined in the 2021 Plan).

 

The Board has determined that, in order to ensure that there are sufficient shares available to meet our needs for grants now and during the coming years, the adoption of the Plan Amendment, reserving an additional 11,000,000 shares, is necessary and desirable to give us a competitive edge in today’s volatile business environment. The ability to grant stock-based compensation awards is critical to our ability to attract, motivate, and retain highly qualified individuals. Our successful operation and our ability to create long-term value for our stockholders depend on the efforts of our employees, including management, and we believe that it is in the best interest of our stockholders for those individuals to have an ownership interest in the Company in recognition of their present and potential contributions and to align their interests with those of our stockholders.

 

---

The 2021 Plan is a broad-based plan under which we may grant awards to our directors, employees, including our officers, and other service providers, as described below. We believe approval of the Plan Amendment will give us flexibility to continue to make cash- and stock-based grants under the 2021 Plan over the next few years in amounts determined appropriate by the Compensation Committee, which administers the 2021 Plan (as discussed more fully below). However, future circumstances may require us to change our expected equity grant practices. These circumstances include, but are not limited to, the future price of our Common Stock, award levels/amounts provided by our competitors and hiring activity during the next few years, including hiring activity related to mergers and acquisitions.

 

It is our current practice to grant cash-based and stock-based compensation awards to key employees on an annual basis during the first quarter of each fiscal year based on targeted dollar values that are generally competitive with industry peers. In addition, it is our current practice to grant stock-based compensation on an annual basis to our non-employee directors, which are also based on targeted dollar values that are generally competitive with industry peers. Fluctuations in our stock price may result in stock-based awards for a given year requiring a larger or smaller number of shares in order to capture the same grant date value as a prior year’s award, which impacts the rate at which we utilize shares for compensation purposes. The closing market price of our Common Stock on April 18, 2024 was $7.42 per share.

 

YOU ARE URGED TO READ THIS ENTIRE PROPOSAL, WHICH EXPLAINS OUR REASONS FOR SUPPORTING THE PLAN AMENDMENT.

 

The Importance of Equity Compensation

Our Board believes that approving the Plan Amendment and thereby increasing the number of shares available under the 2021 Plan, will provide the Company flexibility to continue to issue equity compensation at the levels it deems appropriate to:

Our Board strongly believes that granting equity awards motivates employees to think and act like owners, rewarding them when value is created for our stockholders. Our named executive officers and certain of our directors who are current employees or service providers of the Company or its subsidiaries and our non-employee directors will be eligible to receive awards under the 2021 Plan and, therefore, have an interest in this proposal.

 

Provisions Designed to Protect Stockholders

The 2021 Plan and the Company’s governance policies contain a number of provisions that the Company believes are designed to protect stockholder interests, including:

Description of the Amendment to the 2021 Plan

The sole purpose of the Plan Amendment is to increase the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that may be issued or otherwise made available under the 2021 Plan by 11,000,000 shares of Common Stock (for a total of 23,000,000 shares of Common Stock plus the number of shares that were available for grant under the 2021 Plan as of the Effective Date). The remainder of the Plan remains unchanged. A copy of the Plan Amendment is included as Exhibit A to this Proxy Statement and a summary of the material terms of the 2021 Plan is included below. This summary, which assumes that this Proposal 2 is approved, is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Plan Amendment and the 2021 Plan.

 

---

Description of the 2021 Plan

Administration. The 2021 Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board (the “Committee”). The Committee has the authority to, among other things, construe, interpret and implement the provisions of the 2021 Plan; make, change and rescind rules and regulations relating to the 2021 Plan; correct any defect, supply any omission and reconcile any inconsistency in the 2021 Plan; grant awards under the 2021 Plan and determine the individuals to receive awards, determine the terms and conditions of such awards, amend any outstanding award, not materially adverse to the participant and waiver or amend any goals, restrictions or conditions applicable to awards and accelerate the time or times at which awards vest. The Committee may delegate its authority under the 2021 Plan to one or more officers of the Company in accordance with the terms of the Plan and applicable law. In its sole discretion, the Board may at any time and from time to time exercise any and all rights and duties of the Committee under the 2021 Plan except with respect to matters which, under applicable law, are required to be determined in the sole discretion of the Committee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the full Board, acting by a majority of its members in office or by designation to a committee, conducts the general administration of the 2021 Plan with respect to awards granted to non-employee directors.

 

Eligible Participants. The Committee may designate any of the following as a participant under the 2021 Plan: any person who is an employee, officer, director, consultant, advisor or other individual service provider of the Company or any Affiliate (as defined in the 2021 Plan), or any person who is determined by the Committee to be a prospective employee, officer, director, consultant, advisor or other individual service provider of the Company or any Affiliate. As of the date of this Proxy Statement, there are approximately 252 employees and four non-employee directors who would be eligible participants in the 2021 Plan.

 

Shares Reserved under the 2021 Plan. Under the 2021 Plan prior to the currently proposed Plan Amendment, an aggregate of 12,000,000 shares of Common Stock, plus the number of shares available for issuance under the P10 Holdings, Inc. 2018 Stock Incentive Plan as of the Effective Date of the 2021 Plan are authorized and available for issuance. Shares subject to awards that are forfeited or which expire or are terminated without having been exercised or settled shall again be available for issuance under the 2021 Plan. Similarly, shares tendered in payment of any tax withholding obligations with respect to awards other than options or stock appreciation rights shall again be available for issuance under the 2021 Plan. Shares will not be deemed to have been issued pursuant to the 2021 Plan with respect to any portion of any awards (other than options) that are settled in cash. Notwithstanding the foregoing, shares tendered in payment of the exercise price for an option or covered by a stock settled SAR shall not be made available again for issuance or delivery under the 2021 Plan.

 

Pursuant to the Plan Amendment, if approved by our stockholders, an additional 11,000,000 shares of Common Stock will be available for issuance under the 2021 Plan.

 

In the event of any merger, reorganization, consolidation, recapitalization, separation, split-up, spin-off, liquidation, share combination, stock split, stock dividend, an extraordinary cash distribution on stock, a corporate separation or other reorganization or liquidation or other change in the corporate or capital structure of the Company affecting the Company’s Common Stock, the Committee shall adjust the exercise price and number and kind of securities and property that may be issued with respect to outstanding awards, as well as the number and kind of securities that are available for issuance under the 2021 Plan, as it determines in its sole discretion to be appropriate and equitable to prevent dilution or enlargement of rights, subject, where applicable to Sections 422, 424 and 409A of the Code. The Committee may also make adjustments in the terms and conditions of, and the criteria set forth in awards in recognition of unusual or nonrecurring events affecting the Company or the financial statements of the Company or due to changes in applicable law, regulations, or accounting principles, whenever the Committee determines that such adjustments are appropriate in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under the 2021 Plan.

 

Types of Awards. The 2021 Plan provides for the grant of incentive and nonqualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, unrestricted stock, restricted stock units, performance stock, performance stock units, dividend equivalents, deferred stock, performance bonuses and other stock-based awards.

 

Options. The Committee has the authority to grant stock options and to determine all terms and conditions of each stock option, however, incentive stock options may only be granted to employees of the Company or any parent or subsidiary corporation (as permitted under Sections 422 and 424 of the Code). A stock option is the right to purchase a specified number of shares of Common Stock for a specified exercise price. Stock options may be granted to participants at such time as the Committee determines. The Committee also determines the number of shares of Common Stock subject to each option, whether an option is to be an incentive stock option or non-qualified stock option, the option exercise price per share of Common Stock (which may never be less than the fair market value of a share of Common Stock on the date of grant) and the expiration date of each option (provided that the expiration date may not be later than ten years after the date of grant, or five years for certain incentive stock options). Options are exercisable at such times and may be subject to such restrictions and conditions as the Committee deems necessary or advisable. Participants do not have a right to receive dividend payments or dividend equivalent payments with respect to shares of Common Stock subject to an outstanding stock option.

 

Unless otherwise provided by the Committee in an award agreement, (a) upon termination of service of a participant by reason of death or disability, (i) all outstanding options which are then vested and exercisable may be exercised during a period of one (1) year from the date of such termination of service, unless the options, by their terms, expire earlier and (ii) all then unvested options shall immediately become forfeited; (b) upon an involuntary termination from service without Cause (as defined in the 2021 Plan) or a voluntary termination, (i) all outstanding options that are then vested and exercisable may be exercised during a period of ninety (90) days from the date of such termination of service, unless the options, by their terms, expire earlier and (ii) all then unvested options shall immediately become forfeited; and (c) upon termination of service for Cause or a voluntary termination after the occurrence of an event that would be grounds for a termination for Cause, all outstanding options, whether or not then vested and exercisable, shall immediately be forfeited and no additional exercise period shall be allowed.

 

Stock Appreciation Rights. The Committee has the authority to grant stock appreciation rights, which are also referred to as SARs, which may be granted alone or in tandem with stock options. An SAR is the right of a participant to receive cash and/or Common Stock, in each case equal to the excess of the fair market value of a share of Common Stock at exercise over the exercise price of the SAR. The exercise price may not be less than the fair market value of a share of Common Stock on the date of grant. The Committee shall determine the

---

terms and conditions of each SAR, provided, that the term of each SAR shall not exceed ten (10) years from the date of grant. Except as otherwise determined by the Committee, SARs are generally subject to terms and conditions substantially similar as non-qualified stock options.

 

Restricted Stock. A restricted stock award is a grant of shares of Common Stock, which are subject to forfeiture and transfer restrictions during a specified restriction period and such other terms and conditions as determined by the Committee. The Committee will determine the price, if any, to be paid by the participant for each share of Common Stock subject to a restricted stock award. If the specified vesting conditions are not attained, the Common Stock will be forfeited to the Company. Conversely, if and when the vesting conditions are satisfied, the restrictions imposed will lapse. During the restriction period, a participant will have the right to vote the shares of restricted stock. A participant also will have the right to receive any dividends or distributions paid with respect to the restricted stock, provided that any cash dividends and stock dividends with respect to the restricted stock will be withheld by the Company for the participant’s account, and interest may be credited on the amount of the cash dividends withheld at a rate and subject to such terms as determined by the Committee. The cash dividends or stock dividends so withheld by the Committee and attributable to any particular share of restricted stock (and earnings thereon, if applicable) will be distributed to the participant in cash or, at the discretion of the Committee, in shares of Common Stock having a fair market value equal to the amount of such dividends, if applicable, upon the release of restrictions on such share and, if such share is forfeited, the participant will have no right to such dividends. Unless otherwise provided in an award agreement or determined by the Committee, upon termination of service of a participant for any reason other than by reason of death or disability, all unvested restricted stock will be forfeited, and upon a termination due to death or disability, all restrictions will lapse and the restricted stock will vest in full.

 

Restricted Stock Units. An RSU represents a right to receive, on the achievement of specified vesting conditions, a share of Common Stock or, in the discretion of the Committee, an amount in cash equal to the fair market value (at the time of distribution) of a share of Common Stock. RSUs are generally subject to the same terms and conditions under the 2021 Plan as Restricted Stock, unless otherwise provided by the Committee. Upon termination of service of a participant due to death or disability, the Committee will determine whether there should be any accelerated vesting of the RSUs.

 

Performance Stock Awards. Any participant selected by the Committee may be granted one or more Performance Stock awards, which shall be denominated in a number of shares of Common Stock and which may be linked to any one or more performance goals or other specific performance criteria determined appropriate by the Committee, in each case on a specified date or dates or over any period or periods determined by the Committee.

 

Performance Stock Units. Any participant selected by the Committee may be granted one or more Performance Stock Unit awards which shall be denominated in units of value including dollar value of shares of Common Stock and which may be linked to any one or more performance goals or other specific performance criteria determined appropriate by the Committee, in each case on a specified date or dates or over any period or periods determined by the Committee.

 

Dividend Equivalents. The Committee may grant Dividend Equivalents in connection with any award other than options and SARs. Dividend Equivalents are an amount equal to dividends declared on the shares that are subject to any award, to be credited as of dividend payment dates, during the period between the date the award is granted and the date the award is exercised, vests or expires, as determined by the Committee. Such Dividend Equivalents will be converted to cash or additional shares of Common Stock by such formula and at such time and subject to such limitations as may be determined by the Committee, in a matter consistent with the rules of Section 409A of the Code; provided that, to the extent shares of Common Stock subject to an award are subject to vesting conditions, any Dividend Equivalents relating to such shares will be subject to the same vesting conditions.

 

Deferred Stock. Any participant selected by the Committee may be granted an award of deferred stock in the manner determined from time to time by the Committee. The number of shares of deferred stock shall be determined by the Committee and may be linked to performance goals or other specific performance criteria determined to be appropriate by the Committee, in each case on a specified date or dates or over any period or periods determined by the Committee. Stock underlying a deferred stock award will not be issued until the deferred stock award has vested, pursuant to a vesting schedule or performance criteria set by the Committee. Unless otherwise provided by the Committee, a participant awarded deferred stock will have no rights as a Company stockholder with respect to such deferred stock until such time as the deferred stock award has vested and the shares of Common Stock underlying the deferred stock award has been issued.

 

Performance Bonus Awards. Any Participant selected by the Committee may be granted one or more awards in the form of a cash bonus payable upon the attainment of performance goals that are established by the Committee, in each case on a specified date or dates or over any period or periods determined by the Committee.

 

Other Stock-Based Awards. The Committee has the authority to grant other types of awards, which may be denominated or payable in, valued in whole or in part by reference to, or an exercise or conversion privilege at a price related to, or otherwise based on, shares of Common Stock, either alone or in addition to or in conjunction with other awards, and payable in shares of Common Stock or cash. The Committee determines all terms and conditions of the award, including the time or times at which such award will be made and the number of shares of Common Stock to be granted pursuant to such award or to which such award will relate.

 

Minimum Vesting Requirement. Awards (other than cash-based awards) granted under the 2021 Plan may not vest earlier than the first anniversary of the date on which the award is granted, subject to certain exceptions. Awards may be granted without regard to the minimum vesting requirement with respect to up to 5% of the number of shares authorized for issuance under the 2021 Plan. In addition, the following awards are not subject to the minimum vesting requirement: (i) substitute awards granted in connection with awards that are assumed, converted or substituted pursuant to a merger, acquisition or similar transaction entered into by the Company or any of its subsidiaries, (ii) shares delivered in lieu of fully vested cash obligations, and (iii) awards to non-employee directors that vest on the earlier of the first anniversary of the date of grant and the next annual meeting of stockholders which is at least 50 weeks after the immediately preceding year’s annual meeting, The minimum vesting requirement does not limit the Committee’s discretion to provide for accelerated exercisability or vesting of any award.

 

---

Transferability. No award may be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned, or otherwise alienated or hypothecated, other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution or pursuant to a domestic relations order or as permitted by the Committee in its sole discretion and in accordance with the 2021 Plan, unless and until such award has been exercised, or the shares underlying such Award have been issued, and all restrictions applicable to such shares have lapsed.

 

Vesting Upon Change in Control. The 2021 Plan includes certain provisions addressing the treatment of awards in the event of a change in control of the Company (as defined in the 2021 Plan). In general, time-based awards will only vest in the event of a change in control if they are not assumed or replaced by the acquiror with a comparable award referencing shares of the successor corporation (or its parent or subsidiary) which is publicly traded on a national stock exchange or quotation system, as determined by the Committee. Generally, performance-based stock denominated awards will be converted into time-based awards assuming target value (unless actual performance is determinable as of such date and more than half of the performance period has elapsed) which will vest if the Participant’s employment is terminated without cause or the Participant resigns with good reason within 12-months following the change in control and other performance-based awards that are not so converted will vest and be settled (unless otherwise required under Section 409A of the Code) in connection with the change in control (calculating the performance as provided above).

 

Forfeiture. Awards under the 2021 Plan will be subject to the Company’s clawback policy, as in effect from time to time. Further, any amounts paid with respect to awards are subject to recoupment in accordance with The Dodd–Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and any implementing regulations thereunder, any “clawback” policy adopted by the Company or as is otherwise required by applicable law or stock exchange listing requirement. To the extent that no clawback policy is applicable to a Participant, awards under the 2021 Plan and any shares issued thereunder shall be subject to recovery or “clawback” by the Company if and to the extent (a) the vesting of such awards was based on materially inaccurate financial statements or other performance criteria; or (b) the Participant’s employment or service is terminated due to the Participant’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, or there are grounds for such a termination. In addition, if a Participant engages in any detrimental activity (including noncompliance with restrictive covenants), the Committee may, in its sole discretion, provide for cancellation of any or all of such Participant’s outstanding awards and/or forfeiture by the Participant of any gain realized in respect of such awards, and repayment of any such gain promptly to the Company.

 

Term of 2021 Plan. Unless sooner terminated, the 2021 Plan shall terminate ten years after the Effective Date. After the 2021 Plan is terminated, no new awards may be granted but awards previously granted shall remain outstanding in accordance with their terms and conditions.

 

Amendment and Termination. At any time and from time to time, the Board may amend, modify, alter, suspend, discontinue or terminate the 2021 Plan, in whole or in part; provided, however, stockholder approval is required for any Plan amendment that (i) requires stockholder approval by applicable law, regulation or stock exchange rules, (ii) increases the number of shares available under the Plan or the number of shares available for issuance as ISOs, (iii) permits the grant of options with an exercise price that is below fair market value on the date of grant, (iv) permits the Committee to extend the exercise period for an option beyond ten years from the date of grant, (v) results in a material increase in benefits or a change in eligibility requirements, (vi) changes the granting corporation, or (vii) changes the type of stock authorized for issuance under the 2021 Plan.

 

Repricing Prohibited. Except for the adjustments provided for in the 2021 Plan, the exercise price for any outstanding stock option or SAR may not be reduced (whether directly or indirectly, through the cancellation of the award in exchange for either cash or the granting of a new award at a lower exercise price).

 

Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences.

The following discussion addresses certain U.S. federal income tax consequences generally relating to awards granted under the 2021 Plan. This discussion does not address all aspects of the U.S. federal income tax consequences of participant in the Plan, and does not cover federal employment tax or other federal tax consequences that may be associated with the 2021 Plan, nor does it cover state, local or non-U.S. taxes. Each Participant is advised to consult his or her personal tax advisor concerning the application of the U.S. federal income tax laws to such participant’s particular situation, as well as the applicability and effect of any state, local or non-U.S. tax laws before taking any actions with respect to any awards.

 

Incentive Stock Options (ISOs). There are no federal income tax consequences when an ISO is granted or vested. A participant will also generally not recognize taxable income when an ISO is exercised, provided that the participant was our employee during the entire period from the date of grant until the date the ISO was exercised (although the excess of the fair market value of the shares at the time of exercise over the exercise price of ISOs is included when calculating a participant’s alternative minimum tax liability). If the participant terminates service before exercising the ISO, the employment requirement will still be met if the ISO is exercised within three months of the participant’s termination of employment for reasons other than death or disability, within one year of termination of employment due to disability, or before the expiration of the ISO in the event of death.

 

Upon a sale of the shares acquired upon exercise of an ISO, the participant will realize a long-term capital gain (or loss), equal to the difference between the sale proceeds and the exercise price of the shares, if he or she sells the shares at least two years after the ISO grant date and has held the shares for at least one year after exercise of the ISO. If the participant disposes of the shares before the expiration of these periods, then the participant will recognize ordinary income at the time of the sale (or other disqualifying disposition) equal to the lesser of (i) the gain the participant realized on the sale, and (ii) the difference between the exercise price and the fair market value of the shares on the exercise date.

 

If the employment requirement described above is not met, the tax consequences related to NQSOs, discussed below, will apply.

 

Nonqualified Stock Options (NQSOs). In general, a participant will not recognize taxable income at the time a NQSO is granted or vested, but will realize income at the time the participant exercises a NQSO, in an amount equal to the excess of the fair market value of the shares at the time of exercise over the exercise price. We will generally receive a corresponding tax deduction in the same amount that the participant recognizes as income, subject to the description of Section 162(m) of the Code below. Any gain or loss recognized upon a subsequent sale or exchange of the shares is generally treated as capital gain or loss for which we are not entitled to a deduction.

---

SARs. A participant will not recognize taxable income at the time an SAR is granted but will realize income at the time the participant exercises an SAR, in an amount equal to the fair market value of the shares, or the amount of cash, received in connection with the exercise of the SAR. We will generally receive a corresponding tax deduction in the same amount that the participant recognizes as income, subject to the description of Section 162(m) of the Code below. If a participant receives shares when he or she exercises an SAR, any gain or loss recognized upon a subsequent sale or exchange of the shares is generally treated as capital gain or loss for which we are not entitled to a deduction.

 

Restricted Stock (including Performance Stock).Unless a participant makes an election to accelerate the recognition of income to the date of grant as described below, the participant will not recognize income at the time a restricted stock award is granted. Generally, when the restrictions lapse and the restricted stock vests or are freely transferable, the participant will recognize ordinary income equal to the fair market value of the shares as of that date, less any amount paid for the stock, and we will receive a corresponding tax deduction. If the participant timely files an election under Section 83(b) of the Code, the participant will recognize ordinary income as of the date of grant equal to the fair market value of the shares as of that date, less any amount the participant paid for the shares, and we will generally be allowed a corresponding tax deduction at that time, subject to the description of Section 162(m) of the Code below. Any gain or loss recognized upon a subsequent sale or exchange of the shares is generally treated as capital gain or loss for which we are not entitled to a deduction.

 

Restricted Stock Units (RSUs) (including Performance Stock Units (PSUs)). A participant normally does not recognize income at the time an RSU is granted. When shares or cash are delivered to a participant in settlement of an RSU, the participant will recognize ordinary income in an amount equal to the fair market value of the shares on the date of delivery (or the amount of cash, if settled for a cash payment), and we will generally receive a corresponding tax deduction, subject to the description of Section 162(m) of the Code below. Any gain or loss recognized upon a subsequent sale or exchange of the shares is generally treated as capital gain or loss for which we are not entitled to a deduction.

 

Dividend Equivalents. A participant will recognize ordinary income on the date on which dividend equivalents are paid and we will receive a corresponding deduction, subject to the description of Section 162(m) of the Code below.

 

Tax Effect for the Company. We are generally entitled to a tax deduction in connection with an award under the 2021 Plan in an amount equal to the ordinary income realized by a participant and at the time the participant recognizes such income (for example, the exercise of a NQSO). However, special rules limit the deductibility of certain compensation paid to our chief executive officer, chief financial officer and certain other “covered employees” (as determined under Section 162(m) of the Code). Section 162(m) of the Code denies a federal income tax deduction for certain compensation in excess of $1,000,000 per year paid to such covered employees, which may limit our ability to fully deduct the value of awards under the 2021 Plan.

 

Code Section 409A. Section 409A of the Code provides additional tax rules governing nonqualified deferred compensation, which may impose additional taxes on participants for certain types of nonqualified deferred compensation that is not in compliance with Section 409A.

 

New Plan Benefits Table

 

The Committee granted certain non-executive officer employees stock options, the exercise of which is conditioned upon stockholder approval of the Plan Amendment. If our stockholders do not approve Proposal 2, these options will not be exercisable and will be null and void. No executive officers or non-executive directors have currently been granted awards that are contingent or the exercise of which is contingent on stockholder approval of Proposal 2.

 

The following table sets forth the incentive compensation awards granted to our non-executive officer employees, the exercise of which is conditioned upon stockholder approval of the Plan Amendment. The grant of awards under the 2021 Plan is discretionary. Except with respect to the awards specifically described, no determination has been made as to which of the individuals eligible to participate in the 2021 Plan will receive awards under the 2021 Plan in the future and, therefore, the future benefits to be allocated to any individual or to various groups of eligible participants are not presently determinable.

 

New Plan Benefits P10, Inc. 2021 Stock Incentive Plan
Name and position	Number of shares subject to awards
Non-Executive Officer Employee Group(1)	2,470,917

 

(1) On March 4, 2024, certain non-executive officer employees of the Company were granted options with an exercise price of $7.99 per share, the exercise of which is subject to stockholder approval of the Plan Amendment. If the Plan Amendment is not approved pursuant to this Proposal 2, the options will be null and void.

 

 

Impact if the Plan Amendment is not Approved. If this Proposal 2 is not approved by the Company’s stockholders, the Plan Amendment will be null and void, and the awards described in the New Plan Benefits Table above will terminate, and the 2021 Plan will continue in effect and the shares remaining thereunder will be available for grant.

Audit Committee Report

Pursuant to rules adopted by the SEC designed to improve disclosures related to the functioning of corporate audit committees and to enhance the reliability and credibility of financial statements of public companies, the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors submits the following report:

Audit Committee Report to Stockholders*

The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors is responsible for providing independent, objective oversight of the Company’s accounting functions and internal controls. The Audit Committee is composed of three directors, two of whom are independent as defined by the Listing Rules. The Audit Committee operates under a written charter approved by the Board of Directors and held 5 meetings in fiscal 2023. A copy of the charter is available at https://ir.p10alts.com/governance-documents.

Management is responsible for the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting, disclosure controls and procedures and the financial reporting process. The independent registered public accounting firm is responsible for performing an independent audit of the Company’s consolidated financial statement in accordance with Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) standards and to issue a report thereon. The Audit Committee’s responsibility is to monitor and oversee these processes, including the activities of the Internal Audit function. The Audit Committee has established a mechanism to receive, retain and process complaints on auditing, accounting and internal control issues, including the confidential, anonymous submission by employees, vendors, customers and others of concerns on questionable accounting and auditing matters.

In connection with these responsibilities, the Audit Committee met with management and KPMG LLP, the independent registered public accounting firm, to review and discuss the December 31, 2023 audited consolidated financial statements. The Audit Committee also discussed with KPMG LLP the matters required by Statement on Auditing Standards Update No. 61, as amended (AICPA, Professional Standards, Vol. 1, AU section 380), as adopted by the PCAOB in Rule 3200T. In addition, the Audit Committee received the written disclosures from KPMG LLP required by applicable requirements of the PCAOB regarding the independent accountant’s communications with the Audit Committee concerning independence, and the Audit Committee has discussed the independent registered public accounting firm’s independence from the Company and its management.

Based upon the Audit Committee’s discussions with management and the independent registered public accounting firm, and the Audit Committee’s review of the representations of management and the independent registered public accounting firm, the Audit Committee recommended that the Board of Directors include the audited consolidated financial statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2023 filed with the SEC.

The Audit Committee also has appointed, subject to stockholder ratification, KPMG as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024.

Respectfully submitted,

THE AUDIT COMMITTEE

Robert Stewart, Jr., Chairman

Scott Gwilliam

Travis Barnes

 

* The material in this Report of the Audit Committee is not “soliciting material,” is not deemed filed with the SEC, and is not to be incorporated by reference in any of the Company’s filings under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, respectively, whether made before or after the date of this Proxy Statement and irrespective of any general incorporation language therein.

PROPOSAL 3:

Ratification of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

Principal Accountant Fees and Services

KPMG LLP (“KPMG”), an independent registered public accounting firm, has served as our independent public accountant since 2017. Our Board of Directors is seeking stockholder ratification of the appointment of KPMG as our independent registered public accounting firm for our fiscal year ending December 31, 2024. If the appointment is not ratified, the Audit Committee will consider whether it is appropriate to appoint another independent registered public accounting firm. Even if the appointment is ratified, the Audit Committee, in its discretion, may appoint a different independent registered public accounting firm at any time if it determines that such a change would be in the best interests of the Company and our stockholders.

Delinquent Section 16(a) Reports

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our directors, executive officers, and any person beneficially owning more than 10% of our common stock to file reports concerning their ownership of our equity securities with the SEC.

P10 is committed to embedding sustainability into our business. Our strategies include RCP Advisors, TrueBridge Capital Partners, Five Points Capital, Enhanced Capital, Hark Capital, Bonaccord Capital Partners, and WTI. While each business is unique, all are bound by shared purpose. While each of our strategies pursue investments that offer attractive returns, there is also a desire to align investment objectives with our core values.

Of note is the work done by Enhanced Capital. For over 23 years, Enhanced Capital has been a trailblazer in the impact investing arena and remains steadfast in its mission to generate meaningful and measurable impact across the US lower middle market. Enhanced Capital does so by investing through its Small Business Lending, Impact Real Estate, and Climate Finance strategies and ensuring social, and environmental impacts are achieved alongside financial returns. Investments within each of the Firm’s three strategies target businesses and projects that support underserved communities, underrepresented populations, environmental sustainability, and local economic growth.

Quantitative impact data is collected throughout the investment life cycle in alignment with the UNDP SDG Impact Standards framework. Through this framework, Enhanced Capital has built impact investment practices in alignment with globally recognized sustainability standards.

 

Environment, Social & Governance (ESG) Oversight In 2022 and 2023, P10 continued to build upon and improve our long-standing corporate responsibility commitment and evolved its strategy. In 2024, we have continued to enhance our sustainability strategy to align with our commitment and corporate mission. In partnership with our employees, we are committed to protecting the natural environment and our communities through sustainable practices. We emphasize a culture of accountability and conduct our business in a manner that is fair, ethical, and responsible to earn the trust of our employees. Oversight and guidance are provided by our Board, which is updated quarterly. Against this backdrop, the Company has redetermined that our sustainability pillars include: (1) Our People (2) Our Community, (3) Environmental Responsibility, and (4) Governance.

 

		Our People: Our business is built on strong, trusted and relationships with stakeholders: employees, limited partners, general partners, and our public stockholders. As such, attracting, recruiting, developing, and retaining diverse talent is vital to our success. The Company is focused on supporting our employees, and we consider talent management to be essential to the
ongoing success of our business. Our Board of Directors and Committees provide oversight of our human capital management strategy. While our financial results are gratifying, P10 is not solely focused on driving revenue through our scalable platform. Our business is built on relationships and those are everything to us. Not just with general partners and limited partners, but with employees. Employee retention is key to the execution of our business plan, and we are keenly aware of the importance our people play in the success of our business. We demonstrate our commitment to providing equal opportunities to all employees through training, mentoring, education, and an inclusive culture. We engage our employees in a variety of ways as we seek to create a vibrant workplace for our team.

 

As of December 31, 2023, we have 252 full-time equivalent employees, primarily located in the United States. Approximately 39% of our total work force and 17% of our senior leaders were female, while approximately 23% of our total work force and none of our senior leaders were of racial and ethnic minorities. The Company is focused on supporting our employees, and we consider talent management to be essential to the ongoing success of our business. Our Board of Directors and committees provide oversight of our human capital management strategy.

 

---

Our commitment to Diversity and Inclusion ("D&I") starts with our goal of developing a workforce that is diverse in background, knowledge, skill, and experience. We seek qualified individuals, including LGBTQ+, racial and ethnic minorities, women, and veterans to join our team. We have a strong anti-discrimination policy and consider the inclusion of all people as paramount to our goals. In 2023, we continued the evolution of our D&I strategy and objectives and recognize it as an ongoing business imperative. We recognize that P10 plays an important part in the lives of our people, and we strive to create an inclusive workplace where people feel heard, valued, and appreciated.

 

We are also committed to providing our employees with competitive total compensation, benefits, and wellness resources. We provide a comprehensive benefits package that supports the physical and mental well-being of our workforce, including medical, dental, life, disability coverage, parental leave, education reimbursement, and flexible paid time off. We also provide competitive retirement benefits, including a 401(k)-match program.

 

		Our Community: We support a variety of charitable organizations in our communities through donations, fundraising efforts, and educational partnerships. We strive to use our knowledge, talents and resources to help improve the quality of life in our communities. Each year, Enhanced Capital publishes an annual Community Impact Report to disclose impact performance from the year.

 

For example, in 2022 Enhanced Capital provided an investment to the newly reopened Quitman Community Hospital, a designated Critical Access Hospital designed to advance high-quality healthcare access in rural communities. As a testament to the Firm’s good stewardship, Enhanced Capital was selected for the Impact Assets 50 (“IA 50”) in 2024.

We measure success not only in financial terms, but in our ongoing efforts to reduce inequalities through financial education and literacy programs, good health and well-being, and empowering individuals in low to moderate income communities. Our employees are encouraged to volunteer in their community. P10 is proud to be able to support many events including community development, educational programs, and youth organizations. We are focusing efforts on making significant and measurable direct impact in communities across the United States.

 

		Environmental Responsibility: We support the transition to lower carbon operations and to create environmental awareness among our stakeholders – encouraging them to reduce their carbon footprint, manage waste properly and recycle.

 

To operate our business in a sustainable manner, we have undertaken a number of initiatives designed to reduce our impact on the environment and to promote environmentally-friendly projects and practices. With a view to increasing efficiency and reducing waste, we are continuing to digitize manual back office and financial center functions. In 2023, we:

Our approach to environmental management includes measures to reduce the waste we send to landfills, cultivating a more sustainable supply chain, and reducing our greenhouse gas emissions. We will continue to engage with our strategies and suppliers throughout our global value chain to manage environmental impacts to conserve resources, reduce costs, and promote ethical sourcing practices.

Furthermore, Enhanced Capital continues to invest in environmental initiatives, carbon mitigation, and the transition to a clean energy economy. Notably, Enhanced Capital supports investments in key technologies and companies that support the global energy transition, environmental sustainability, and/or decarbonization.

 

		Governance: We believe that strong governance related to ethics, integrity, risk management, compliance, and business continuity supports the long-term success of our Company, building trust and credibility with our stakeholders. Key sustainability governance priorities include:

 

Our board and its committees help set the tone for P10 and meet regularly to review policies, current regulations, and industry best practices. Our strong governance is reflected in many of our policies and practices. We have adopted a Code of Conduct and Ethics that applies to all directors, officers, and employees. Additionally, we have a comprehensive compliance program that promotes ethical and compliant business practices throughout our business, and we offer compliance education training to our employees. P10’s whistleblower policy further supports our stated goals within our governance structure. Our whistleblower policy encourages transparency, confidentiality, and provides multiple avenues for employees to submit concerns about financial irregularities, breaches of internal controls, conflicts of interest, and fraud.

P10, and its strategies, implement robust risk management programs to ensure compliance with applicable laws and regulations governing ethical business practices, including our relationships with suppliers, customers and business partners, and our industry. Our risk management teams oversee compliance with applicable laws and regulations and coordinate with affiliate subject-matter experts (“SMEs”) throughout the business to identify, monitor and mitigate material risks.

We have strategically integrated cybersecurity risk management into our broader risk management framework to promote a company-wide culture of cybersecurity risk management. We utilize third-party cybersecurity consultancy firms to manage and execute our cybersecurity programs. These third-party firms are led and supervised by our Chief Technology Officer (“CTO”). Our policies, standards, processes and practices are based on frameworks established by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (“NIST”), the International Organization for Standardization and other applicable industry standards. On a quarterly basis, our third-party cybersecurity consultancy firms perform phish testing and on demand information security training. On a yearly basis, our third-party consultancy firms perform

information security awareness training. Our cybersecurity program provides what we believe is an effective level of protection of client information and our operating systems while also promoting the timely detection of, and defense against, cyberattacks and other unauthorized access to our information technology systems.

Our IT team uses a combination of industry-leading tools and innovative technologies to help protect our stakeholder’s data. Our employees are responsible for complying with our data security standards and completing mandatory annual training to understand the behaviors and technical requirements necessary to keep data secure. We also offer ongoing education for our employees to recognize and report suspicious activity. The primary goal of our data security program is to maintain defenses with industry best practices. We use examination guidelines, frameworks, and privacy laws to guide us in consistently meeting legal and regulatory requirements. Our strategy allows us to perform a high level of due diligence by investing in information security controls.

 

	We are proud of the contribution we are making to our society. P10 routinely engages with our stakeholders on ESG and sustainability matters. For more information, please visit: www.p10alts.com
