Companies that benchmark against USLM
1 company names USLM as a compensation peer

Each company listed discloses USLM in its own benchmarking peer group, as disclosed in each company's most recent proxy statement within the last two proxy seasons. Two companies are therefore absent by design: one that named USLM in an earlier year and no longer does, and one whose own most recent disclosure is older than the last two seasons.

10a

Peer reciprocity

Of the companies United States Lime & Minerals names as compensation peers, which name it back in their own disclosed peer groups. A peer set the market reciprocates reads differently from one selected in a single direction.

Reciprocity shown where the peer's own current proxy has been read — each mark is cited in the register to that peer's filing. A dash means the peer's current proxy was read and names no reciprocal group including United States Lime & Minerals.
