One page per director: the seat, the committees and the fee table, read for one person at a time.

Every insider equity transaction reported on Form 4 after the 2025 proxy statement — acquisitions, dispositions, exercises, and withholdings — and therefore not reflected in any table in that document.

Transaction codes per Form 4: A acquisition · S open-market sale · F tax withholding · M option exercise · G gift. Value = shares × price as reported. Dividend-equivalent and fractional-share accrual rows (derivative Class A, under $10,000 and under 2,000 shares) are aggregated per date; every row appears in full below.

% performance-vested = PSU grant-date fair value ÷ (RSU + PSU + Options), a computed value with the derivation shown in the register.

Three fundamental philosophies form the basis of pay at PriceSmart: First, we believe that employees should be paid fairly and competitively. As Sol Price said: Pay good wages and provide good benefits, including health insurance to employees. Second, we believe that all employees should be rewarded based on personal achievements in their positions, considering function and level, in addition to both department-level success and overall company success. Third, we are especially mindful that there are entry level and lower-compensated employees who must be prioritized to ensure that their compensation allows for a reasonable standard of living.

Rows are labeled by annual-meeting year, with the meeting date beside each; the vote held in a given year acts on the prior fiscal year's compensation.

Say-on-pay — history, company's computation

a. Approved under the standard stated in the filing — “Because they represent shares present and entitled to vote that are not cast in favor of a proposal, abstentions will have the same effect as votes "against" Proposal 2 and Proposal 3.”.

b. Approved under the standard stated in the filing — “Because they represent shares present and entitled to vote that are not cast in favor of a proposal, abstentions will have the same effect as votes "against" Proposal 2, Proposal 3 and Proposal 4.”.

c. Approved under the standard stated in the filing — “Because they represent shares present and entitled to vote that are not cast in favor of a proposal, abstentions will have the same effect as votes "against" Proposal 2.”.

Approval percentages are the company's own reported computations under its own stated standard, not recomputed by Velarion. Where a company does not state a standard, none is assumed.

Computed as the sum of the director compensation table rows above; inputs and formula shown in the register.

Most recent fiscal-year chief executive compensation at each disclosed peer, taken from that company's own proxy statement.

Each peer's compensation is from its most recently filed proxy; fiscal years differ by company. Each peer's figures come from its own filings; the subject company is highlighted. Peers whose chief executive compensation is outside our coverage universe are stated as such, never left blank.

Answers are drawn only from the figures disclosed in this brief and cited to their location in the source filing. Where a figure required for an answer is not disclosed, that is stated rather than estimated.

Each figure's location is given both for the eye (section · page · table · row · column) and for a script (table/row/column index and exact character span in the filed document). Any figure can be independently confirmed against the source.
