PAY VERSUS PERFORMANCE DISCLOSURE

As required by Section 953(a) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K, the following table is intended to illustrate compensation “actually paid” to our principal executive officer (“PEO”) and the other named executive officers (“NEOs”) for each of the fiscal years ended October 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, in each case, as compared to (i) our cumulative total shareholder return (“TSR”) performance and (ii) net income. Since the stock awards granted on March 22, 2024 and March 9, 2023 to Robert Hekemian, Jr. and John A. Aiello were fully vested on the date of the grant, there are no differences in our Summary Compensation Table amounts and compensation actually paid for the PEO and NEOs.

For additional information on our compensation programs and philosophy and how we design our compensation programs to align pay with performance, see the section titled “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” on pages 14 – 19.

Erroneously Awarded Compensation Recovery  
Erroneous Compensation Analysis

The Board has adopted a policy that provides that, in the event that FREIT is required to prepare an accounting restatement due to FREIT’s material non-compliance with any financial reporting requirement, FREIT will require the reimbursement, cancellation or forfeiture, as the case may be and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, of any incentive-based compensation paid to any current or former executive officer during the three-year period preceding such restatement that was based on the erroneous data and that was paid in excess of the compensation that would have been paid to the executive officer based on the accounting restatement. FREIT will disclose any incentive-based compensation paid to any executive officer that is based on any measure of financial performance or any other financial information in FREIT’s proxy statement for the annual meeting of stockholders and as required by the rules and regulations of the SEC.

As discussed under “Elements of Executive Compensation” below, FREIT did not pay any incentive-based compensation to any of the executive officers during the fiscal year ended October 31, 2024.
