Diamondback's executive compensation philosophy is guided by the principles of attracting, retaining, and motivating the executive team to deliver results against short-term and long-term objectives with prudent risk-taking and alignment with stockholders. A majority of total compensation is at-risk, performance-based, and provided in Company equity to ensure alignment of interests between executives and stockholders.
