Key Facts for Investor Verification

  • Broker Non-Votes: Verify the impact of 161,338,921 broker non-votes on the director election and majority voting proposal, as brokers lacked discretionary authority on these non-routine matters.
  • Director Support Levels: Note the variance in support for director nominees; Douglas L. Jacobs received significantly fewer withheld votes (5.28M) compared to Robert J. McGinnis and Andrew Sloves (approx. 42.3M each).
  • Non-Binding Nature: Confirm that the "majority voting" proposal was non-binding, meaning its adoption is subject to further board action.
  • Company Identity: Ensure analysis is applied to New Residential Investment Corp. (NRZ), as the request metadata incorrectly referenced "Rithm Capital Corp."
