Summary
Titan International's board approved a $2.3 million deferred compensation award for CEO Paul Reitz, funded by contributing approximately 332,370 shares of company stock to a rabbi trust. The award vests and pays out starting in 2030, with Reitz choosing lump sum or installments. The trust is irrevocable but its assets remain subject to claims of the company's general creditors in insolvency, and Reitz holds only unsecured contractual rights.
Voting rights on the contributed shares are exercised by the trustee, not Reitz. This is a routine executive compensation arrangement with no immediate red flags.
