Proposal No. 1: Election of Directors

Proposal No. 1:

Election of Directors

Philip A. Laskawy has informed us that he will retire from the Board as of our 2023 Annual Meeting. The Board would like to thank him for his years of distinguished service to Loews and the Board. The Board has determined to fix the number of directors constituting the full Board at eleven, as of the 2023 Annual Meeting. Accordingly, at the Annual Meeting, shareholders will vote to elect a Board of eleven directors to serve until the next annual meeting of shareholders and until their respective successors are duly elected and qualified. It is the intention of the persons named in the accompanying form of proxy, unless you specify otherwise, to vote for the election of the nominees named below, each of whom is a current director. Our Board has no reason to believe that any of the persons named will be unable or unwilling to serve as a director and each has agreed to be nominated in this Proxy Statement.

If any nominee is unable or unwilling to serve, we anticipate that either:

▪ proxies will be voted for the election of a substitute nominee or nominees recommended by our Nominating and Governance Committee and approved by our Board; or

▪ our Board will adopt a resolution reducing the number of directors constituting our full Board.

Director Nominating Process

In evaluating potential director nominees for recommendation to our Board, our Nominating and Governance Committee seeks individuals with exceptional talent and ability and experience from a wide variety of backgrounds to provide a diverse spectrum of experience and expertise relevant to a diversified business enterprise such as ours.

In identifying, evaluating and nominating individuals to serve as directors, our Board and its Nominating and Governance Committee do not rely on any preconceived diversity guidelines or rules. Rather, our Board and its Nominating and Governance Committee believe that Loews is best served by directors with a wide range of perspectives, professional experiences, skills and other individual qualities and attributes.

Although we have no minimum qualifications, a candidate should represent the interests of all shareholders, and not those of a special interest group, have a reputation for integrity and be willing to make a significant commitment to fulfilling the duties of a director.   Our Nominating and Governance Committee will screen and evaluate all recommended director nominees (including those validly proposed by shareholders) based on these criteria, as well as other relevant considerations. Further information regarding the process for a shareholder to

recommend a director nominee can be found below under “Submissions of Nominations or Other Proposals for Our 2024 Annual Meeting” on page 57. Our Nominating and Governance Committee will retain full discretion in considering its nomination recommendations to our Board.

Loews Corporation 2023 Proxy 5

Proposal No. 1: Election of Directors

Director Independence

Our Board has determined that the following directors, constituting a majority of our directors, are independent under our independence standards and the listing standards of the New York Stock Exchange: Ann E. Berman, Joseph L. Bower, Charles D. Davidson, Charles M. Diker, Paul J. Fribourg, Walter L. Harris, Philip A. Laskawy, Susan P. Peters and Anthony Welters. We refer to these directors in this Proxy Statement as our “independent directors.” Our Board considered all relevant facts and circumstances and applied the independence standards described below, which are consistent with New York Stock Exchange listing standards, in determining that none of our independent directors has any material relationship with us or our subsidiaries.

Our Board has established the following standards to determine director independence.

A director would not be considered independent if any of the following relationships exists:

▪ during the past three years the director has been an employee, or an immediate family member has been an executive officer, of Loews;

▪ the director or an immediate family member received, during any twelve-month period within the past three years, more than $120,000 in direct compensation from Loews, excluding director and committee fees, pension payments and certain forms of deferred compensation;

▪ the director is a current partner or employee or an immediate family member is a current partner of a firm that is Loews’s internal or external auditor, an immediate family member is a current employee of such a firm and personally works on the company’s audit or, within the last three years, the director or an immediate family member was a partner or employee of such a firm and personally worked on Loews’s audit within that time;

▪ the director or an immediate family member has at any time during the past three years been employed as an executive officer of another company where any of Loews’s present executive officers at the same time serves or served on that company’s compensation committee; or

▪ the director is a current employee, or an immediate family member is a current executive officer, of a company that has made payments to, or received payments from, Loews for property or services in an amount which, in any of the last three years, exceeded the greater of $1 million or 2% of the other company’s consolidated gross revenues.

In considering Mr. Davidson’s independence, the Board noted that a subsidiary of our insurance industry subsidiary, CNA Financial Corporation (“CNA”), anticipates investing in a private investment fund managed by Quantum Energy Partners, where Mr. Davidson is a partner. If the CNA subsidiary makes the investment, then it would pay certain fees to Quantum Energy Partners in respect of the investment, including management and performance fees. Mr. Davidson would indirectly share in those fees as a result of his interest in the fund’s general partner. No fees have been paid by the CNA subsidiary at this time. The Board determined that this was not a material relationship based on Mr. Davidson’s nominal interest in the fund’s general partner and the portion of potential fees he would indirectly share in as a result of that interest.

Board Governance Information

Corporate Governance

Effective corporate governance reinforces our goal of building long-term value for shareholders. Our governance principles are detailed in our Corporate Governance Guidelines, which are reviewed annually and updated as needed, including in response to evolving best practices and regulatory requirements. We also have a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics which applies to all of our directors, officers and employees, including our principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principal accounting officer.

For more information on our governance practices and policies, please see “Corporate Governance Highlights” on page 4 in the Proxy Summary section.

GOVERNANCE DOCUMENTS
The following governance documents are available on our website in the “Investors/Media” section under “Governance” at www.loews.com and are available in print to any shareholder who requests a copy by writing to our Corporate Secretary:
▪ Corporate Governance Guidelines	▪ Compensation Committee Charter
▪ Code of Business Conduct and Ethics	▪ Nominating and Governance Committee Charter
▪ Audit Committee Charter

Board Leadership Structure

Our Board’s current leadership structure consists of two Co-Chairmen of the Board, Andrew H. Tisch and Jonathan M. Tisch, and a lead director, presently Paul J. Fribourg, who is also Chairman of our Board’s Nominating and Governance Committee. Loews’s Chief Executive Officer, James S. Tisch, does not currently serve in a formal leadership capacity on our Board.

Our Board believes that this structure provides input, guidance and leadership for the Board from both senior management and non-management directors, which assists the Board in effectively fulfilling its oversight role. Our Board also believes that the current exclusion of Loews’s Chief Executive Officer from its leadership structure helps to achieve an appropriate balance between the differing perspectives of management and non-management directors during the course of its proceedings.

The lead director plays an important role in our Board’s leadership structure. Non-management directors meet in executive session after each regular quarterly meeting of our Board. The lead director chairs these meetings of non-management directors. Our lead director also currently serves as Chairman of the Nominating and Governance Committee, the principal Board committee charged with responsibility for the Board’s leadership structure. In this dual role, the lead director facilitates the ability of non-management directors to fulfill their responsibilities and provides a structure for communicating any concerns that non-management directors may have directly to Loews’s senior management.

Board Governance Information

Share Ownership Guidelines for Directors

Our Board has adopted minimum share ownership guidelines for directors who are not employees or officers of Loews. Under these guidelines, each non-management director is required to own shares having a value (determined as of the time the shares are acquired) of at least three times the annual cash retainer payable to directors (which is currently $100,000 per year). Newly elected directors have until the date of the third annual meeting after they were first elected to accumulate the requisite shares. Shares owned by immediate family members or in certain trusts and unissued shares underlying restricted stock units are counted toward satisfying the requirement. Our Nominating and Governance Committee, or the committee chair acting by delegated authority, has the authority to grant exceptions to the guidelines for hardship reasons.

Director Compensation

Our non-management directors receive a cash retainer of $25,000 per quarter and an annual restricted stock unit (“RSU”) award with a value of $100,000 at the date of grant (the date of our annual shareholder meeting) under the Loews Corporation 2016 Incentive Compensation Plan (our “Incentive Compensation Plan”).

Members of our Audit Committee each receive a cash retainer of $6,250 per quarter, and the committee chair receives an additional $10,000 per quarter. Members of our Compensation Committee and Nominating and Governance Committee each receive a cash retainer of $2,500 per quarter, and the committee chairs receive an additional $5,000 per quarter. Our lead director receives an additional quarterly retainer of $5,000. Our non-management Co-Chairman of the Board also receives an additional quarterly retainer of $25,000.

Our directors are reimbursed for reasonable expenses incurred in connection with attending board of director and committee meetings.

Our non-management directors may elect to defer some or all of their cash and equity compensation.

The following table shows information regarding the compensation of our non-management directors during the year ended December 31, 2022.

Transactions with Related Persons

Our Audit Committee Charter requires our Audit Committee to review and approve all related party transactions required to be disclosed under Securities and Exchange Commission rules. It has been our Audit Committee’s practice, however, to review and approve or ratify any transaction, regardless of the size or amount, involving us or any of our subsidiaries in which any of our directors, director nominees, executive officers, principal shareholders or any of their immediate family members has had or will have a direct or indirect material interest, without the participation of any member who may be involved in the transaction. All such related party transactions are submitted to our General Counsel for review and reported to our Audit Committee for its consideration. In each case, the Audit Committee considers, in light of all of the facts and circumstances it deems relevant, whether the transaction is fair and reasonable to us.

Our Audit Committee reviewed and approved or ratified each of the following 2022 related party transactions:

Andrew H. Tisch, James S. Tisch and Jonathan M. Tisch and members of their families have chartered our aircraft for personal travel from time to time. For the use of our previously owned aircraft, charters were done through an unaffiliated management company and the charterer paid us a fixed hourly rate plus a fuel surcharge which equaled or exceeded our out-of-pocket operating costs. For the use of an aircraft in which we hold a fractional interest, the charterer pays us a rate that closely approximates our incremental cost. The total amount reimbursed or paid to us in 2022 in connection with this aircraft travel was $772,077.

Alexander Tisch, son of Andrew H. Tisch, was employed as a Vice President of Loews and as President of Loews Hotels during 2022. Alexander Tisch earned cash compensation (including cash incentive compensation) of $1,850,000 in 2022 and participated in benefit programs available to salaried employees generally. In February 2022, he was granted 7,401 RSUs under our Incentive Compensation Plan.

Benjamin Tisch, son of James S. Tisch, was employed as Senior Vice President, Corporate Development and Strategy of Loews during 2022. Benjamin Tisch earned cash compensation (including cash incentive compensation) of $1,850,000 for 2022 and participated in benefit programs available to salaried employees generally. In February 2022, he was granted 7,401 RSUs under our Incentive Compensation Plan.

Following his retirement as a member of the Office of the President, Andrew Tisch reimburses the Company for 100% of the costs associated with a company-provided car and driver and 60% of the costs associated with an executive assistant (reflective of the amount of the executive assistant’s time that is dedicated to assisting him on matters not related to Loews business). The reimbursement amounts for these items during 2022 was $227,970 for the car and driver and $197,215 for the executive assistant.

Proposal No. 2: Advisory Resolution to Approve Executive Compensation

Proposal No. 2:

Advisory Resolution to Approve Executive Compensation

As required by Section 14A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) and pursuant to the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 (the “Dodd-Frank Act”), we provide our shareholders with an annual advisory vote to approve named executive officer compensation. This advisory vote, commonly known as a “say-on-pay” vote, is a non-binding vote on the compensation paid to our named executive officers as disclosed under the heading “Executive Compensation” beginning on page 23 of this Proxy Statement.

Our executive compensation program is designed to attract, motivate and retain highly qualified executives who are able to help achieve the company’s objectives and create shareholder value over the long term. Our executive compensation programs and objectives are described in detail under the heading “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” and the level of compensation paid to our named executive officers during the last three years is set out in the Summary Compensation Table and related information. Our Compensation Committee believes that our executive compensation program is effective in achieving our objectives.

This advisory vote to approve named executive officer compensation is not binding on our Board. However, the Board values our shareholders’ input and will take into account the result of the vote when determining future executive compensation arrangements.

  Accordingly, our Board recommends a vote FOR the following resolution:

“RESOLVED, that the shareholders approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation paid to the company’s named executive officers as disclosed under the heading “Executive Compensation” in the Proxy Statement for the 2023 Annual Meeting of Shareholders.”

Loews Corporation 2023 Proxy 21

Proposal No. 3: Advisory Vote on Frequency of Future Advisory Votes on Executive Compensation

Proposal No. 3:

Advisory Vote on the Frequency of Future Advisory Votes on Executive Compensation

As required by Section 14A of the Exchange Act and pursuant to the Dodd-Frank Act, we are providing our shareholders the opportunity to indicate how frequently we should seek future advisory say-on-pay votes on the compensation of our named executive officers. Under this proposal, shareholders may indicate whether they would prefer that the advisory say-on-pay vote on the compensation of our named executive officers occur every one, two or three years. Shareholders also may abstain from voting on this proposal. At our 2017 annual meeting of shareholders, our shareholders approved holding an advisory vote on the compensation of our named executive officers annually.

The Compensation Committee and the Board believe that an annual advisory vote on executive compensation is the best approach because it allows shareholders to provide direct input on our compensation policies and programs consistent with our annual reporting of executive compensation. This advisory vote, although not binding on the Board, will be taken into account by the Board when determining the frequency of holding future advisory say-on-pay votes.

  Accordingly, our Board recommends a vote to conduct an advisory say-on-pay shareholder vote EVERY YEAR.

Compensation Discussion

and Analysis

Executive Summary

This Compensation Discussion and Analysis contains information about the compensation we pay to our executive officers whose compensation is required to be disclosed in the Executive Compensation tables that follow under Securities and Exchange Commission rules (“named executive officers”).

OUR NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS FOR 2022 WERE:
James S. Tisch	Jane J. Wang*	David B. Edelson*	Jonathan M. Tisch	Kenneth I. Siegel	Richard W. Scott
President and Chief Executive Officer, Office of the President	Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer	Former Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer	Office of the President, Co-Chairman of the Board, Loews Corporation; Executive Chairman, Loews Hotels	Senior Vice President	Senior Vice President and Chief Investment Officer

*David B. Edelson resigned as our Chief Financial Officer on May 10, 2022, and as Senior Vice President on June 30, 2022. Jane J. Wang succeeded him as Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer on May 10, 2022.

WHO WE ARE

Loews Corporation is a holding company. We own significant interests in a diverse portfolio of businesses, including:

CNA Financial Corporation is a property and casualty insurer (90.0% ownership interest)	Boardwalk Pipelines is a provider of natural gas and liquids transportation and storage services (100% ownership interest)	Loews Hotels is an operator and manager of hotels (100% ownership interest)	Altium Packaging is a manufacturer of rigid plastic packaging (52.6% ownership interest)

In addition, we had approximately $3.2 billion of cash and investments at the holding company level as of December 31, 2022.

Our primary function is to allocate our capital in ways that drive long-term value creation and returns for our shareholders. To do this we make decisions related to investments in our subsidiaries, repurchases of our shares, acquisitions and dispositions of subsidiaries and prudent investment of our cash and investment assets.

Loews Corporation 2023 Proxy 23

Executive Compensation

In light of our business model, our most critical asset is our people — our human capital — including our senior leadership team that drives our capital allocation decisions. All of our executive officers and other employees are located in our headquarters office and a neighboring building in New York City. We not only compete for leadership talent with our and our subsidiaries’ peer companies, but also with New York City-based financial services firms, including investment and commercial banks, private equity funds, hedge funds, insurance and reinsurance companies and other sophisticated financial firms. Our compensation policies and practices are driven by our need to attract and retain highly qualified, financially sophisticated executive officers in this competitive marketplace and motivate them to provide a high level of performance for our shareholders.

OUR COMPENSATION PHILOSOPHY

We have maintained a consistent compensation philosophy for many years, which takes into account that the quality of our leadership has a direct impact on our performance. Our compensation philosophy is based on the following objectives:

▪ Motivating superior long-term financial performance and the creation of shareholder value over the long term;

▪ Discouraging unreasonable risk taking;

▪ Aligning compensation with our long-term strategy and focus and the interests of our shareholders;

▪ Providing market-competitive compensation;

▪ Avoiding excessive compensation; and

▪ Attracting and retaining high-caliber executive talent.

We believe in recognizing the performance of our executive officers primarily through a combination of cash compensation, made up of a fixed base salary and incentive compensation, and stock-based compensation, which, in 2022, consisted of performance-based restricted stock units. Because cash incentive compensation and our restricted stock unit awards are tied to performance, a large majority of the compensation paid to our executive officers is performance-based and, other than their fixed base salaries, no compensation is guaranteed.

HOW WE STRUCTURE OUR EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION PROGRAM

We structure our executive compensation to avoid the possibility of excessive compensation in any given year, including through:

▪ the Compensation Committee’s ability to exercise negative discretion in determining cash incentive compensation;

▪ setting what we believe to be reasonable, but achievable, performance targets for both cash incentive compensation and stock-based awards; and

▪ generally not paying cash incentive compensation in excess of pre-established target levels set by the Compensation Committee.

We believe this structure provides ample motivation for our executive officers to maximize their performance and focus on the long-term success of the company, while deterring unreasonable risk taking with an eye toward short-term results.

24
Loews Corporation 2023 Proxy

Executive Compensation

The fixed base salary for our named executive officers has generally comprised substantially less than half of their total potential cash compensation, with the balance coming from our performance-based Incentive Compensation Plan. In setting potential awards under that plan, our Compensation Committee sets what it believes are reasonable, but achievable, target levels, but reserves broad discretion to reduce or eliminate incentive compensation. The Compensation Committee also establishes maximum award levels that will not be exceeded.

In selecting and allocating the elements of our executive compensation program, we have considered, among other things, our historical compensation policies as they have evolved over the years and benchmarking information regarding executive compensation paid by comparably sized companies engaged in businesses similar to ours and our principal subsidiaries as well as others with which we compete for talent in the New York City marketplace. To assist in gathering this information and benchmarking our executive compensation practices against the practices at these companies, our human resources group engaged the compensation consultant, Semler Brossy.

OUR GOAL IS TO INCREASE SHAREHOLDER VALUE OVER THE LONG TERM

Our compensation program is intended to align the interests of our senior executives with those of our shareholders. Our goal is to increase shareholder value over the long term and to reasonably reward superior performance that supports that goal. In establishing the aggregate amount of targeted compensation for each named executive officer, we do not rely on formula-driven plans, which could result in unreasonably high compensation levels and encourage excessive risk taking. Instead, aggregate target compensation is based on an evaluation of the individual’s performance, skills, leadership and expected future contributions in the context of our financial performance and seeks to achieve the objectives of our compensation philosophy set forth above. Based on these considerations, we determine an overall level of target cash compensation, a portion of which is to be paid as base salary and the balance of which is structured to be performance-based cash compensation, and a level of stock-based awards. We consider the aggregate compensation (earned or potentially available) to each named executive officer in establishing each element of compensation.

2022 TOTAL CASH AND STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

These charts show each of the three principal elements of our compensation program as a percentage of total cash and stock-based compensation for our Chief Executive Officer and other named executive officers in 2022.

Executive Compensation

SAY ON PAY VOTE

At our 2022 annual meeting of shareholders, 96% of the shares voted approved, on an advisory basis, our executive compensation program. We believe this result represents a strong endorsement of our executive compensation philosophy and practices.

SAY ON PAY VOTE APPROVAL
In the last five years, we received an average approval of approximately 94% in our annual advisory vote of shareholders on our executive compensation program.

Compensation Governance

We are committed to good compensation governance and design and administer our executive compensation program to be consistent with our business goals and in the best interests of our shareholders. In that regard, we:

▪ maintain a fully independent Compensation Committee, which oversees all aspects of our executive compensation and monitors, reviews and approves all executive compensation decisions;

▪ structure our cash incentive compensation awards to executive officers so that the Compensation Committee may exercise negative discretion over these awards;

▪ structure our executive officers’ stock-based compensation to be performance-based;

▪ have a clawback policy that allows for the recoupment of incentive compensation;

▪ do not have employment agreements with, or guarantee compensation to, any of our executive officers;

▪ do not have agreements with any of our executive officers to pay severance upon a change in control; and

▪ conduct an annual shareholder advisory vote on our executive compensation practices. We have received a large majority vote in favor of our executive pay program every year since implementing this vote. We are recommending that shareholders vote at the Annual Meeting to continue conducting this vote annually.

Compensation Program Structure and Process

The principal components of compensation for our named executive officers are:

▪ base salary;

▪ performance-based cash incentive compensation awards;

▪ performance-based stock-based awards; and

▪ retirement, medical and related benefits.

Each year, our Chief Executive Officer, after consulting with our Vice President, Human Resources, reviews with the Compensation Committee the performance of each named executive officer and each other executive officer, and makes a recommendation to the Compensation Committee with respect to their annual compensation, including the setting of parameters for cash incentive compensation awards and stock-based awards. The Compensation

26
Loews Corporation 2023 Proxy

Executive Compensation

Committee then meets in executive session without the Chief Executive Officer present and makes the final determination regarding the compensation for our Chief Executive Officer and each of the other named executive officers, as well as our other executive officers. The other named executive officers do not play any role in their own compensation determination other than discussing their performance with the Chief Executive Officer, and neither our Chief Executive Officer nor any other executive officer participates in the Compensation Committee’s final deliberations on compensation matters.

The Compensation Committee has capped the base salary for our named executive officers at $1 million per year for many years. Historically, this reflected the impact of provisions of the Internal Revenue Code that limited the amount of non-performance-based compensation we were able to deduct for federal income tax purposes to $1 million for certain of the named executive officers. While these provisions are no longer applicable, the base salary for our named executive officers in 2022, during the portion of the year in which they were executive officers, remained capped at $1 million as the relative lower weight of base salary to performance-based compensation is consistent with the Committee’s belief that performance-based compensation should be the greater part of the compensation of each of our named executive officers.

CASH INCENTIVE COMPENSATION AWARDS

The largest portion of the compensation earned by our named executive officers in 2022 came from cash awards under our Incentive Compensation Plan. This element of our compensation program ensures that a significant portion of each executive’s annual compensation is dependent on Loews’s annual achievement of a metric that we call “performance-based income.”

Defining Performance-based Income

Performance-based income is defined in our Incentive Compensation Plan as our consolidated net income as adjusted by the Compensation Committee under the terms of our Incentive Compensation Plan to account for specific factors that may impact our business, but which the Compensation Committee deems reasonable and appropriate to exclude or include in determining performance for incentive compensation purposes.

PROCESS OF ESTABLISHING ANNUAL INCENTIVE COMPENSATION AWARDS

STEP 1	Establish annual performance bonus pool	First quarter of each year
First, the Compensation Committee establishes an annual performance bonus pool expressed as a percentage of our performance-based income for that year.
The performance bonus pool is not an expectation of the bonus amounts that will, in fact, be paid; rather, it sets the outer limit of compensation that can be paid to all executive officers in our incentive compensation program for the year.
The Committee allocates a portion of the performance bonus pool to each of the named executive officers and other executive officers who participate in the incentive compensation program.

STEP 2	Establish Target Award	First quarter of each year
Then, the Compensation Committee establishes a target award (expressed as a dollar amount) for each participant, based on, among other things, an assessment of the individual’s expected performance.
The intention is that the incentive compensation award generally will not exceed the target award (even if the portion of the performance bonus pool allocated to a participant is in excess of the established target), except based on the Compensation Committee’s discretion.

Loews Corporation 2023 Proxy 27

Executive Compensation

STEP 3	Establish Maximum Award	First quarter of each year
Next, the Compensation Committee establishes a maximum award (expressed as a dollar amount) for each participant, to cap the amount in excess of the target that the Committee may in its discretion award any participant.
A participant’s award cannot exceed the portion of the performance bonus pool allocated to the participant, and also cannot exceed the maximum award amount established by the Committee. In addition, it has been the practice of the Compensation Committee to retain negative discretion in the payment of awards, which allows the Committee to reduce or eliminate any award at its discretion.

STEP 4	Define Performance-based Income	First quarter of each year
The Compensation Committee determines what adjustments should be made to our consolidated net income for the year to account for factors that it believes would not be appropriate to include when determining performance for incentive compensation purposes.
However, by reserving the ability to exercise negative discretion to reduce an award otherwise earned, the Committee retains the ability to take into account these excluded items and other factors it deems relevant.

STEP 5	Calculate Performance-based Income and Conduct Participant Performance Assessment	First quarter of following year
After the fiscal year ends, the amount of performance-based income earned for the year is determined. Once this has been determined, the Compensation Committee reviews and re-assesses each participant’s performance in the context of our financial performance and seeking to achieve the goals of our compensation philosophy.
Based upon this review and re-assessment, the Committee awards incentive compensation out of each executive’s pre-allocated percentage of the performance bonus pool.
The Committee, in its discretion, determines whether to award incentive compensation that meets or exceeds the target award (up to the maximum award established for that individual) or that is lower than the target award. Historically, the Committee generally has exercised its negative discretion to limit awards paid to the pre-established target amounts.

How We Determined the Performance Bonus Pool for 2022 Incentive Compensation

For 2022, the Compensation Committee established at the beginning of 2022 a performance bonus pool of 4.5% of performance-based income, which it determined was an appropriate level to recognize the performance of plan participants, which include our named executive officers and other executive officers.

As has historically been the case, there was no expectation that the entire performance bonus pool would, in fact, be awarded and paid out, as the Committee’s practice has been to exercise its discretion to pay bonuses amounting to only a fraction of the performance bonus pool. The potential for excessive compensation was further limited by the establishment at the beginning of 2022 of target levels and absolute maximum amounts for each named executive officer and each other executive officer participating in our incentive compensation program.

In establishing the performance bonus pool and target and maximum awards for each named executive officer, the Compensation Committee took into account:

▪ our compensation philosophy and objectives, which aim to reasonably reward superior performance while eschewing formula-driven criteria, which have the potential of providing unreasonably high compensation levels;

▪ the individual’s duties, past and expected performance of those duties, experience and tenure and compensation history; and

▪ our goals of increasing shareholder value over the long term.

Negative discretion

An integral part of the implementation of the cash incentive compensation program by the Compensation Committee is the ability to use negative discretion for the award to each executive officer, allowing the Committee to reduce or eliminate any award notwithstanding the level of performance-based income. This gives the Committee the flexibility to appropriately evaluate the performance of each executive officer considering not only the level of performance-based income, but also Loews’s consolidated net income and the individual’s performance.

For each named executive officer, other than the Chief Executive Officer, the Compensation Committee also took into account the recommendations of the Chief Executive Officer. The Committee relied on these qualitative factors, together with its discretion to reduce awards below the target award as well as to pay awards up to the maximum amount, and determined not to establish other specific, quantitative criteria or numerical formulas of performance measures.

2022 NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICER TARGET AND MAXIMUM AWARDS AND BONUS POOL ALLOCATION

The 2022 target and maximum awards and the share of the performance bonus pool allocated to each named executive officer were established in the first quarter of 2022 as follows:

Name	Share of 4.5% Bonus Pool Allocated	Target Award	Maximum Award
James S. Tisch	20.6%	$4,150,000	$5,000,000
Jane J. Wang	7.0	1,400,000	2,250,000
David B. Edelson	9.7	1,957,500	3,000,000
Jonathan M. Tisch	16.9	3,393,000	4,500,000
Richard W. Scott	12.1	2,430,000	3,250,000
Kenneth I. Siegel	18.9	3,800,000	4,500,000

The Committee did not make any changes to the 2022 executive compensation program or metrics after they were established in the first quarter of 2022.

2022 ADJUSTMENTS TO CONSOLIDATED NET INCOME AND RATIONALE

The Compensation Committee determined in the first quarter of 2022 that net income should be adjusted to determine performance-based income for 2022 as set forth below. However, by reserving the ability to exercise negative discretion to reduce an award otherwise earned, the Committee retained the ability to take into account these excluded items (including, for example, impairments) and other factors it deems relevant when ultimately approving awards.

Adjustment identified in first quarter 2022	Rationale for exclusion
The effect of accounting changes	This item was excluded because: • by its nature it is not a cash item; • it is not within the control of the company or any named executive officer; and • it has the possibility of increasing or decreasing net income in ways that may not be predictable when performance-based income is established.
Net losses attributed to the impairment of goodwill, long-lived assets and/or equity method investments	This item was excluded because: • it is not a cash item; • under generally accepted accounting principles, goodwill, long-lived assets and equity method investments are accounted for using an impairment-based model under which the carrying value is subject to reduction, resulting in charges to income, based on a decline in fair value, but the carrying value cannot be increased in subsequent periods if fair values rise; and • doing so encourages management to approach impairment decisions objectively and impartially.
Any net income or loss relating to net reserve strengthening and/or adverse dividend or premium development for accident years prior to 2000, and/or any favorable or unfavorable income statement impact of applying retroactive reinsurance accounting in connection with any and all CNA loss portfolio transfers	From time to time, CNA enters into loss portfolio transfer transactions. For instance, in 2010, CNA completed a retroactive reinsurance transaction under which it ceded substantially all of its legacy asbestos and environmental pollution liabilities to a reinsurer, subject to an aggregate limit of $4 billion. Additionally, in 2021, CNA ceded certain legacy excess workers’ compensation liabilities to a reinsurer. The Compensation Committee determined that any income statement impact of applying retroactive reinsurance accounting relating to loss portfolio transfer transactions should not be considered when measuring current performance. Moreover, the Compensation Committee determined that any net income or loss relating to net reserve strengthening or adverse dividend or premium development for accident years prior to 2000 should not be considered when measuring current performance.
Any net income or loss relating to net reserve strengthening for CNA’s long-term care or benefit settlement option liabilities or relating to a disposition (or proposed disposition), a loss portfolio transfer or other transaction that is intended to fix or limit CNA’s exposure to its run-off Life & Group business	CNA’s individual and group long-term care businesses are in run-off and its payout annuity business was in run-off prior to its disposition in 2014. The Compensation Committee determined that any income statement impact from net reserve strengthening for CNA’s long-term care or benefit settlement option liabilities or a transaction that is intended to fix or limit CNA’s exposure to its run-off Life & Group business should not be taken into account when measuring current performance.
Investment gains and losses	The Compensation Committee decided to exclude investment gains and losses because the decision to realize a gain or a loss can be a discretionary decision. Accordingly, any implication that an individual could be wrongly motivated in taking or failing to take a gain or loss in an effort to impact consolidated net income would be removed.

30
Loews Corporation 2023 Proxy

Executive Compensation

Adjustment identified in first quarter 2022	Rationale for exclusion
Catastrophe losses of CNA in excess of, but not less than, CNA’s budgeted amount	The Compensation Committee excluded this item because the level of catastrophes that impact a property and casualty insurer is, of course, unpredictable and, accordingly, not an appropriate way to measure performance. On the other hand, performance-based income should not be increased just because of a low level of catastrophes in any year. The Compensation Committee determined that the amount for catastrophe losses budgeted at the beginning of the year — which at times has been higher or lower than the actual level of catastrophe losses — is preferable for measuring performance.
Any net income or loss relating to the defense or disposition, by judgment or settlement, of litigation that is not related to the operations of the company’s continuing consolidated subsidiaries, including, for example, litigation related to the Corporation’s and/or its subsidiaries’ mergers, acquisitions and dispositions activities	The company’s ownership interests in its subsidiaries change from time to time and the company and its current and former subsidiaries are from time to time parties to litigation. For instance, the company and certain of its Boardwalk Pipelines-related subsidiaries are defendants in litigation relating to the company’s 2018 acquisition of the Boardwalk Pipelines limited partnership units not already owned by the company’s affiliates. The Compensation Committee determined that any net income or loss relating to the defense or disposition of litigation such as this matter should not be considered when measuring current performance.
Any net income or loss attributable to changes in deferred income tax assets and liabilities resulting from a change in income tax rates in 2022	Several of Loews’s subsidiaries, by the nature of their business, recognize significant deferred income tax assets and liabilities, which have accumulated over many years. A change in the income tax rate could have a significant impact on these deferred tax items and on Loews’s net income since the impact in the year of this change would involve the entire historical balance of deferred tax assets or liabilities. The Compensation Committee determined to exclude this item since any change in income tax rates is, of course, unpredictable and not within the company’s control, and the resulting impact on net income and loss would not be a suitable indication of performance.
Any gain or loss on disposal of discontinued operations (but not income from operations of the discontinued operations)	The Compensation Committee determined to exclude both gains and losses from the disposal of discontinued operations in the belief that the results from a disposition, whether positive or negative, relate to the generally multi-year holding period of the asset disposed of, even though recognized in the year of disposal. Therefore, any such gains or losses could distort net income in the year of disposition.

For 2022, performance-based income ultimately amounted to $1,159 million compared to consolidated net income of $1,012 million.

PERFORMANCE-BASED STOCK-BASED AWARDS

The third principal element of our compensation program for named executive officers and other executive officers is stock-based awards, which in 2022 consisted of performance-based restricted stock units (“PRSUs”).

The PRSUs, similar to the time-vesting RSUs granted in 2022 to our non-executive officers and certain other managerial and professional employees (“non-executive RSUs”), will vest in two equal tranches (subject to earlier vesting in the case of death, disability, termination without cause and certain retirements):

▪ 50% on the second anniversary of the grant date; and

▪ 50% on the third anniversary of the grant date.

In addition, for dividends, the PRSUs (along with non-executive RSUs) are credited cash (accruing interest each year at the one-year Treasury rate applicable in January of the year the dividend is paid) in respect of dividends paid, with such cash to be delivered to the executives only if and when the underlying PRSUs have been actually earned and vested.

Loews Corporation 2023 Proxy 31

Executive Compensation

However, unlike non-executive RSUs, in addition to being subject to the same time-vesting terms as non-executive RSUs, PRSUs granted to our executive officers are also subject to performance-vesting terms.

The performance-vesting terms made PRSUs dependent on the company achieving a pre-established level of performance-based income per share for 2022. The terms of the PRSUs awarded in the first quarter of 2022 provided that they would be earned by our executive officer recipients as follows (subject to the time-vesting provisions of the PRSUs):

PERFORMANCE-BASED INCOME PER SHARE:
At or Above Target	100% of PRSUs earned
At 50% to 100% of Target	Pro rata portion of PRSUs earned
Below 50% of Target	No PRSUs earned

In connection with the grant of PRSUs to our executive officers in the first quarter of 2022, the Compensation Committee established the performance-based income per share target for PRSUs at $2.75 per share. The Committee did not make any changes to the 2022 executive compensation program or metrics after they were established in the first quarter of 2022, including to this per share target amount.

The ultimate value of stock-based awards under our Incentive Compensation Plan is directly correlated to our performance as measured by the price of our common stock over the long term. The value of these awards increases and decreases directly with changes in the price of our common stock. In addition, unlike base salary and incentive compensation awards, which are earned and paid based on the annual performance of the individual and the company, PRSUs awarded in 2022 vest over a period of three years. As a result, these awards encourage executives to continue their employment with Loews. These elements further serve to align the executive’s interests with those of our shareholders.

The Compensation Committee makes grants of stock-based awards in the first quarter of each year at the same time the Committee performs its annual management performance evaluation and takes other compensation actions. Annual equity grants for executive officers occur on the same date as our annual equity grants for our other officers and certain professional and managerial employees, which is the date of the Compensation Committee’s annual February meeting. As the grant date for our annual stock-based awards occurs on the date of a Compensation Committee meeting in February of each year, the grant date is set well in advance when the schedule of Compensation Committee meetings is arranged. Loews does not grant stock-based awards in anticipation of the release of non-public information or time the release of this information based on stock-based award grant dates. We also at times grant stock-based awards to new executives when they are hired or promoted during the year. These grants are approved by the Compensation Committee (or, in the case of smaller grants, by our Chief Executive Officer, as delegated by the Committee).

EMPLOYEE BENEFITS

Our named executive officers also participate in benefit programs available to salaried employees generally, including retirement and medical programs. For 2022, these retirement programs included our Employee Savings Plan under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code and our Deferred Investment Plan. In addition, prior to their freezing effective December 31, 2019, our retirement programs included a Qualified Retirement Plan, Benefit Equalization Plan and Executive Deferred Compensation Plan. Also, from time to time, we have provided one or more named executive officers with unfunded supplemental retirement benefits under the supplemental retirement agreements described under “Pension Plans” on page 44. No supplemental retirement benefits were granted in 2022. Additional information regarding our retirement programs is available under “Pension Plans” on page 44 and “Deferred Compensation” on page 45.

2022 Compensation to Our Named Executive Officers

BASE SALARY

Consistent with our objective of emphasizing performance-based compensation, the base salary for each of our named executive officers during 2022 was less than $1 million during the portion of the year in which they were executive officers. The base salaries for 2022 for James Tisch, Kenneth Siegel, Jonathan Tisch and Richard Scott remain unchanged from the prior year. The base salary for David Edelson remained unchanged during the first six months of the year when he remained an executive officer. For the remainder of the year, he was a Senior Advisor (a non-executive officer position) with a salary of $2 million (but he was not eligible for cash or equity incentive compensation in this role). The base salary for Jane Wang reflected her promotion to Chief Financial Officer during the year.

CASH INCENTIVE COMPENSATION AWARDS

For 2022, the Compensation Committee made cash incentive compensation awards to our Chief Executive Officer and each of our other named executive officers, which were paid in the first quarter of 2023. In determining the amounts earned by these executives, the Committee acted consistently within the parameters of the grants that were established in the first quarter of 2022, including the size of the performance bonus pool for the year. However, the Committee also exercised its business judgment, using essentially a qualitative, rather than formula-driven, approach based on the Committee’s overall judgment of the individual’s performance in the context of our financial performance and seeking to achieve the objectives of our compensation philosophy. The Committee did not make any changes to the 2022 executive compensation program or metrics after they were established in the first quarter of 2022.

In addition to the specific factors discussed below, the Compensation Committee considered:

▪ its compensation philosophy in favor of fair and generally consistent pay levels and against excessive or unreasonable compensation levels;

▪ an emphasis on consistent, long-term, superior performance by the individual;

▪ its evaluation of the performance of each named executive officer based on direct observation, since each named executive officer regularly reports to the Board on the operations of the company and its subsidiaries; and

▪ for each named executive officer other than the Chief Executive Officer, executive sessions with the Chief Executive Officer in which each named executive officer’s performance is reviewed and evaluated.

These factors were not weighted and there is no formula for how these factors were applied in determining cash incentive compensation awards.

Loews Corporation 2023 Proxy 33

Executive Compensation

Chief Executive Officer

In making its determination regarding the grant and payment of an incentive compensation award for 2022 to our Chief Executive Officer, James S. Tisch, the Compensation Committee considered, among other things, the overall performance of the company and its principal subsidiaries, its compensation philosophy against excessive or unreasonable compensation levels and its emphasis on consistent, long-term, superior performance by the individual.

Based on these considerations, at the beginning of 2022, the Compensation Committee increased Mr. Tisch’s target bonus level by approximately 5% from the prior year, while keeping his maximum bonus level unchanged. The Committee also retained negative discretion to reduce any award to what it determines is a reasonable level under the circumstances.

The Compensation Committee evaluated Mr. Tisch’s performance in 2022 and during recent years, considering the overall state of the markets in which Loews and its subsidiaries operate and the financial markets generally. This is consistent with the Committee’s philosophy of evaluating performance over the longer term to encourage and reward long-term value creation and to discourage unreasonable risk-taking. The Committee considered Mr. Tisch’s ability to demonstrate leadership and maintain stability at Loews and our subsidiaries throughout the turmoil of the last few years, and to prudently allocate the company’s capital to take advantage of market opportunities and protect against known risks.

The Compensation Committee noted the following accomplishments under

Mr. Tisch’s leadership:

▪ Loews repurchased approximately 12.7 million shares, or 5.1%, of its common stock in 2022 and has repurchased approximately 98 million shares, or 29.4%, of its common stock from 2018 through the end of 2022, while consistently maintaining a very strong liquidity position;

▪ the company’s book value per share (excluding accumulated other comprehensive income) increased approximately 21.9% during the past five years; and

▪ the leadership teams at Loews’s principal operating subsidiaries remained focused and motivated to maintain stability through the challenges of the last few years in order to ultimately drive the most value from their respective companies, helped in part by the leadership of the company’s Chief Executive Officer and our other named executive officers.

As a result of these efforts, the underlying businesses of Loews’s subsidiaries have remained strong, even in certain challenging operating environments. For example:

▪ CNA achieved strong underlying P&C underwriting profitability and premium growth while actively managing the risk in its long-term care business and maintaining an extremely strong capital position;

▪ Boardwalk Pipelines continued to increase its operating results, entered into $1.3 billion of firm agreements in 2022 and decreased its leverage;

▪ Loews Hotels had a record-breaking year following its emergence from the pandemic and continued to execute on its long-term growth strategy and to improve the operations of its portfolio of hotels and resorts; and

▪ Altium Packaging continued to grow through acquisitions, diversifying its product mix.

Incentive Compensation Determination: The Compensation Committee determined in the first quarter of 2023, for the reasons detailed above, that Mr. Tisch earned his target incentive compensation award for 2022. This award is approximately 38.7% of the amount allocated to him from the performance bonus pool based on the level of performance-based income for the year.

Loews Corporation 2023 Proxy

Executive Compensation

Other Named Executive Officers

Similar to our Chief Executive Officer, each of our other named executive officers was granted a cash incentive compensation award in the first quarter of 2022 that was paid in the first quarter of 2023.

Consistent with the Compensation Committee’s determination for our Chief Executive Officer, the target awards for our other named executive officers, other than David Edelson and Jane Wang, were increased by approximately 5%, while maximum levels remained unchanged. David Edelson’s target award decreased by approximately 50% in recognition of his planned resignation during the year. Jane Wang’s target and maximum award levels reflected her mid-year promotion to Chief Financial Officer.

In making its determination regarding the amount of these awards earned by these executives, the Committee considered many of the same factors described above that it considered for our Chief Executive Officer. Based on its evaluation of each executive’s performance, including the input and recommendation of the Chief Executive Officer, the Committee, in the first quarter of 2023, awarded each of these other named executive officers, other than Kenneth Siegel, incentive compensation equal to their target amount for 2022, and awarded Kenneth Siegel approximately 6.6% above his target amount for 2022.

 

Incentive Compensation Determination: These incentive compensation awards amounted to approximately 38.7% to 41.3% of the total amount available in the performance bonus pool for the other named executive officers and are consistent with the Committee’s philosophy in favor of rewarding consistent, long-term superior performance, but against excessive or unreasonable compensation.

PERFORMANCE-BASED STOCK-BASED AWARDS

In making its determinations regarding the award of PRSUs in 2022 to our named executive officers, the Compensation Committee considered the same factors described above on page 27 under “Cash Incentive Compensation Awards” as well as the level of stock-based awards previously awarded to these individuals. These factors are not weighted and there is no formula for how these factors were applied in determining the number of PRSUs granted.

PRSU Determination: Based on all factors reviewed, in the first quarter of 2022, the Committee awarded 16,447 PRSUs, representing a grant date value of $1,000,000, to each of James and Jonathan Tisch, 13,157 PRSUs, representing a grant date fair value of $800,000, to each of Richard Scott and Kenneth Siegel, 8,223 PRSUs, representing a grant date fair value of $500,000 to Jane Wang, and 6,578 PRSUs, representing a grant date fair value of $400,000 to David Edelson. The grant date fair value for PRSU awards for 2022 for these executives, other than David Edelson and Jane Wang, increased for the first time since 2017. The grant date fair value of David Edelson’s award decreased from the prior year in recognition of his planned resignation during the year. The PRSU award for Jane Wang reflected her mid-year promotion to Chief Financial Officer. For 2022, performance-based income amounted to $4.76 per share, resulting in 100% of these PRSUs being earned by each of our named executive officers in the first quarter of 2023; however, these PRSUs still remain subject to their time-vesting provisions, with 50% of these PRSUs vesting in 2024 and 50% vesting in 2025.

Loews Corporation 2023 Proxy 35

Executive Compensation

Other Considerations

Compensation Program as it Relates to Risk. Management and the Compensation Committee regularly review our compensation policies and practices to ensure they do not encourage excessive risk taking. This review includes the cash and equity incentive programs, which are discussed in detail above under “Compensation Program Structure and Process” beginning on page 26. Based on this review, we do not believe that our compensation program encourages excessive risk taking, due to, among many considerations, the following plan design elements:

▪ Our program appropriately balances the three primary components of our executives’ compensation: base salary, cash incentive compensation and equity-based incentive compensation.

▪ The Compensation Committee establishes reasonable, but achievable, performance targets for cash and equity-based incentive compensation in order to motivate our executives to create value for our shareholders over the long term while exercising prudent risk management.

▪ Awards of cash and equity-based incentive compensation are capped, and the Compensation Committee has the authority to exercise negative discretion with respect to payouts of cash incentive compensation, limiting excessive rewards for short-term results.

▪ Each of James and Jonathan Tisch, the members of our Office of the President, and Andrew Tisch, Co-Chairman of our Board, owns, and has owned for many years, a significant amount of our common stock, which strongly aligns their interests with those of our shareholders and encourages a long-term focus.

▪ Our clawback policy, described below, allows for the recoupment of incentive compensation payments and awards if an executive officer’s conduct leads to a restatement of our financial results, which mitigates risk.

Clawback Policy. We have adopted a policy that allows for the recoupment of incentive compensation (cash and equity-based) paid or awarded to an executive officer if we are required to restate our financial statements due to material noncompliance with federal securities laws if that officer’s intentional or unlawful misconduct materially contributed to the need for such restatement. In such case, for any period affected by the restatement, the executive’s incentive compensation will be subject to recoupment to the extent the amounts paid or awarded were greater than the amounts that would have been paid or awarded if they had been calculated on the basis of the restated financial results.

Anti-Hedging and Pledging Policy. We have adopted a policy that prohibits directors and executive officers from entering into hedging transactions in our common stock. For purposes of this policy, a hedging transaction is the entry into, or purchase or sale of, any financial instrument (including prepaid variable forward contracts, equity swaps and collars), or the entry into of any other transaction, in each case for the express purpose of offsetting a potential decline in the market value of our common stock. For the avoidance of doubt, financial instruments and transactions subject to this policy do not include transactions in securities (or derivative instruments relating thereto) of any open-end mutual fund, unit investment trust or exchange-traded fund, or of any company that is not affiliated with us.

In addition, directors and executive officers are prohibited from pledging our common stock, options relating to our common stock or any other security linked to our common stock as collateral for a loan unless the director or executive officer has the ability to repay the loan without liquidating the pledged stock and the loan is fully recourse to the director or executive officer.

Employment Agreements. We have no employment or other agreements relating to severance or payment upon a change of control with any of our named executive officers or other executive officers.

Share Ownership by Executive Officers and Directors. As disclosed above under “Director and Officer Holdings” on page 19, each of James and Jonathan Tisch, the members of our Office of the President, and Andrew Tisch, Co-Chairman of our Board, owns, and has owned for many years, a significant amount of our common stock, which strongly aligns their interests with those of our other shareholders.

(2)
These amounts represent the aggregate grant date fair value computed in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718 of awards of SARs granted in 2020 pursuant to the stock option plan of our former subsidiary, Diamond Offshore, as compensation for service by James S. Tisch and Kenneth I. Siegel as directors of Diamond Offshore during 2020. The aggregate grant date fair value of these awards was estimated using the Black-Scholes pricing model assuming: (a) an expected life of eight years; (b) an expected volatility of 127.65%; (c) a dividend yield of 0%; and (d) a risk-free interest rate of 1.85%. Expected life and volatility of awards is based on historical data. The dividend yield is based on the current regular dividend rate in effect and the current market price at the time of grant. Risk-free interest rates are determined using the U.S. Treasury yield curve at the time of grant with a term equal to the expected life of the awards. This information was provided by Diamond Offshore.

(3)
These amounts represent awards under our Incentive Compensation Plan for the years indicated, which were paid to the named executive officers in February of the following years.

(4)
These amounts represent the actuarial increase, if any, in the present value of retirement benefits of each named executive officer under our retirement plans and, with respect to James S. Tisch and Jonathan M. Tisch, supplemental retirement agreements as of December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020 over the value of those benefits as of December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively, all as determined using the same interest rate and other assumptions as those used in our financial statements in those respective years. These amounts for James S. Tisch, Jonathan M. Tisch and Jane J. Wang decreased from December 31, 2021 to December 31, 2022 by $6,192,632, $5,066,939 and $135,051, respectively. The changes from year to year primarily represent changes in actuarial pension assumptions. For an estimate of the pension benefits accrued for and which may become payable to the named executive officers and the assumptions used in calculating those amounts, please see the 2022 Pension Benefits table on page 44 of this Proxy Statement.

(5)
We have included this column to show how year over year changes in pension value impact total compensation as determined under SEC rules. The amounts reported in this column are calculated by subtracting the amounts reported in the Change in Pension Value and Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Earnings column from the amounts reported in the table’s SEC Total column. The amounts reported in this column in some cases differ substantially from, and are not a substitute for, the amounts reported in the table’s SEC Total column. To determine our named executive officers, we have used the amounts in the SEC Total column.

(6)
All Other Compensation for 2022 for James S. Tisch includes: (a) $231,000, representing our contributions under our Deferred Investment Plan for 2022; (b) $30,500, representing our contributions under our Employee Savings Plan for 2022; (c) $31,476, representing the portion of the expense of a car and driver that is attributable to Mr. Tisch’s personal use during 2022, which personal portion is determined based on the amount of car miles and driver hours that were associated with such personal use as compared to the total car miles and driver hours for the year; (d) $18,207 representing the aggregate incremental cost of discounted hotel rooms granted by Loews Hotels & Co to Mr. Tisch or his family in connection with personal travel during 2022, which is calculated as the difference between the market value of the rooms occupied by Mr. Tisch or his family and the price paid for such rooms; and (e) $3,000, representing additional cash compensation paid or applied to the cost of benefit choices under our flexible benefits plan, which may include premiums for medical, dental, vision, life and disability insurance policies, for 2022.

(7)
In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, each of James and Jonathan Tisch voluntarily agreed to reduce his base salary by 50% from April 1, 2020 through December 31, 2020. As a result, they received $650,625 in base salary during 2020, instead of $975,000 received in prior years.

(8)
In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, each of James and Jonathan Tisch, voluntarily agreed to waive receipt of 50% of any annual cash incentive compensation award for the 2020 performance year earned under our Incentive Compensation Plan. As a result of those waivers, while James and Jonathan Tisch each earned the awards set forth under the “Non-Equity Incentive Plan Compensation” column in the Summary Compensation Table, they were actually paid $1,975,000 and $1,612,500, respectively.

Executive Compensation Tables

Pension Plans

Prior to 2020, we provided a funded, tax qualified, non-contributory retirement plan for certain employees, including our named executive officers (our “Qualified Retirement Plan”). Benefits under tax qualified plans are subject to limitations under the Internal Revenue Code. Accordingly, we also provided an unfunded, nonqualified, non-contributory retirement plan (our “Benefit Equalization Plan”) which provided for benefits that otherwise were not available due to these limitations. Effective December 31, 2019, these plans were frozen, and participants no longer accrue benefits, other than interest credits on accrued balances at a rate determined annually for all participants. At retirement or termination of employment, vested participants are entitled to receive their benefit in a lump-sum or a monthly annuity.

We also maintain supplemental retirements accounts for James S. Tisch and Jonathan M. Tisch under supplemental retirement agreements with each of these individuals (“Supplemental Benefit”). We credit each nominal account annually with the interest credit established under our Qualified Retirement Plan. Upon retirement, each of these officers will receive the value of his account in the form of an annuity or, subject to certain conditions, in a single lump-sum payment.

The following table shows information regarding pension benefits accrued for and paid to each of our named executive officers as of December 31, 2022.

Deferred Compensation

2008 Plan. The following table shows information regarding compensation deferred by David Edelson on a nonqualified basis under our Deferred Compensation Plan (the “2008 Plan”), which was frozen as of December 31, 2015. None of our other named executive officers have outstanding balances under this plan.

Under the 2008 Plan, by annual election, employees earning at least $100,000 per year were able to defer up to ten percent of base salary on a tax-deferred basis. Upon electing to participate each year, a participant chose the amount to be deferred, the duration of the deferral and whether to receive distributions of deferred amounts in a single payment or in equal annual installments over a period of up to 15 years. Participants may allocate deferred account balances among a number of investment funds selected by the benefits committee administering the plan.

The 2008 Plan is a nonqualified, unfunded plan under the Internal Revenue Code and the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA); however, we have established a “rabbi” trust to provide a source of funds (subject to the claims of our creditors), which is administered by an independent financial institution as trustee.

(1)
Pursuant to applicable SEC rules, amounts included in Aggregate Earnings in Last Fiscal Year are not reported as compensation in the 2022 Summary Compensation Table as they were not accrued at an above-market interest rate.

(2)
$431,250 of contributions made by Mr. Edelson since he became a named executive officer, and $187 of earnings accrued at an above-market interest rate, included in Aggregate Balance at Last Fiscal Year-End were reported as compensation in Summary Compensation Tables for previous years. All other contributions and earnings were not reported as compensation in Summary Compensation Tables for previous years.

2016 Plan. The following table shows information regarding compensation deferred by David Edelson on a nonqualified basis under our Executive Deferred Compensation Plan (the “2016 Plan”), which was adopted effective January 1, 2016 and frozen as of December 31, 2019. None of our other named executive officers have outstanding balances under this plan.

Under the 2016 Plan, by annual election, employees earning at least $250,000 per year were able to defer up to 50% of base salary and 75% of bonus on a tax-deferred basis. Upon electing to participate each year, a participant chose the amount to be deferred, the duration of the deferral and whether to receive distributions of deferred amounts in a single payment or in equal annual installments over a period of up to 15 years. Participants may allocate deferred account balances among a number of investment funds selected by the benefits committee administering the plan.

The 2016 Plan is a nonqualified, unfunded plan under the Internal Revenue Code and ERISA; however, we have established a “rabbi” trust to provide a source of funds (subject to the claims of our creditors), which is administered by an independent financial institution as trustee.

Executive Compensation Tables

Deferred Investment Plan. The following table shows information regarding our named executive officers’ accounts under our Deferred Investment Plan (the “Deferred Investment Plan”), which was adopted effective January 1, 2020.

Under the Deferred Investment Plan, by annual election, employees whose cash compensation (base salary and bonus) is greater than the annual IRS compensation limits for 401(k) plans ($305,000 in 2022) are able to defer up to 75% of base salary and 100% of bonus on a tax-deferred basis. In addition, we make annual contributions to the Deferred Investment Plan accounts of eligible employees equal to 5% of the participant’s annual cash compensation that is in excess of the annual IRS compensation limits for 401(k) plans.

Upon electing to participate each year, a participant chooses the amount to be deferred, the duration of the deferral and whether to receive distributions of deferred amounts in a single payment or in equal annual installments over a period of up to 15 years. Participants may allocate deferred account balances among a number of investment funds selected by the benefits committee administering the plan.

The Deferred Investment Plan is a nonqualified, unfunded plan under the Internal Revenue Code and ERISA; however, we have established a “rabbi” trust, to provide a source of funds (subject to the claims of our creditors), which is administered by an independent financial institution as trustee.

The following table shows the financial performance measures we use to link compensation actually paid to our named executive officers to our performance.

Financial Performance Measures

Performance-Based Income

Performance-Based Income per Share

CEO Pay Ratio

Under SEC rules established pursuant to the Dodd-Frank Act, we are required to disclose the ratio of pay of our Chief Executive Officer to that of our median employee, as defined under those rules, excluding our Chief Executive Officer. In order to estimate this ratio, we first determined our employee population using a determination date of December 31, 2022. A new determination date was used this year to reflect changes to our employee population since the prior determination date. Under the SEC rules, our employee population included approximately 17,575 employees from Loews Corporation and our consolidated subsidiaries — CNA, Boardwalk Pipelines and Loews Hotels. We identified the median employee from this employee population using a compensation measure that incorporated base salary, overtime and any bonuses paid for 2022. For employees hired during the year, their compensation was annualized to reflect a full year of wages. International employees’ pay was converted to US dollar equivalents using the average of the exchange rates from January 1, 2022 and December 31, 2022. For 2022, the annual total compensation of our Chief Executive Officer, which is equal to the total compensation amount reflected in the Summary Compensation Table above, and the median employee from the employee population determined under the SEC rules is $6,439,183 and $60,764, respectively. This results in a CEO pay ratio estimate of 106:1. Given the numerous different methodologies, assumptions, adjustments and estimates that companies may apply as permitted under SEC rules, this information may not be an appropriate basis for comparison between different companies.

Proposal No. 4: Ratification of the Appointment of Our Independent Auditors

Proposal No. 4:

Ratification of the Appointment

of Our Independent Auditors

Our Audit Committee is directly responsible for the appointment, compensation and oversight of the independent external audit firm retained to audit our financial statements and the audit fee negotiations associated with their retention. Our Audit Committee has selected Deloitte & Touche LLP to serve as our independent auditors for 2023. The Audit Committee regularly evaluates the performance of our independent auditors to determine if it is engaging a firm it believes is well positioned to serve the company and its shareholders. The Audit Committee also periodically considers whether, in order to assure continuing auditor independence, Loews should rotate its independent external audit firm. In conjunction with the mandated rotation of the independent auditors’ lead engagement partner, the Audit Committee and its Chairman participate in the selection of each new lead engagement partner. The Audit Committee and the Board believe that the continued retention of Deloitte & Touche LLP to serve as Loews’s independent external auditor is in the best interests of Loews and its shareholders.

Although it is not required to do so, our Board wishes to submit the selection of Deloitte & Touche LLP for ratification, on an advisory basis, by our shareholders at the Annual Meeting. Even if this selection is ratified by our shareholders at the Annual Meeting, our Audit Committee may at its discretion change the appointment at any time during the year if it determines that such a change would be in the best interests of us and our shareholders. If our shareholders do not ratify the selection of Deloitte & Touche LLP, our Audit Committee will reconsider its selection. Representatives of Deloitte & Touche LLP are expected to be at the Annual Meeting to answer appropriate questions and, if they choose to do so, to make a statement.

Audit Fees and Services

The following table shows fees billed by Deloitte & Touche LLP and its affiliates for professional services rendered to us and our subsidiaries in 2022 and 2021, by category, as described in the notes to the table.

(in thousands)	2022	2021

Tax Fees(3)	31	32
All Other Fees(4)	10	10
Total	$17,979	$17,214

(1)
Includes the aggregate fees and expenses for the audit of our and our consolidated subsidiaries’ annual financial statements and internal control over financial reporting, statutory filings and the reviews of our and their quarterly financial statements.

(2)
Includes the aggregate fees and expenses for services that were reasonably related to the performance of the audit or reviews of our and our consolidated subsidiaries’ financial statements and not included under “Audit Fees” above, including, principally, audits of employee benefit plans, internal control reviews and due diligence.

Proposal No. 4: Ratification of the Appointment of Our Independent Auditors

Auditor Engagement Pre-Approval Policy

To assure the continued independence of our independent auditors, currently Deloitte & Touche LLP, our Audit Committee has adopted a policy requiring pre-approval of all audit and non-audit services performed by our independent auditors. Under this policy, our Audit Committee annually pre-approves certain specified recurring services which may be provided by Deloitte & Touche LLP, subject to maximum dollar limitations.

All other engagements for services to be performed by Deloitte & Touche LLP must be specifically pre-approved by our Audit Committee, or the Chairman of our Audit Committee to the extent the Audit Committee has delegated pre-approval authority to the Chairman. Our Audit Committee, or the Chairman of our Audit Committee pursuant to such delegated authority, pre-approves all engagements by us and our consolidated subsidiaries, other than CNA and its subsidiaries, for services of Deloitte & Touche LLP, including all terms and fees. Our Audit Committee has concluded that all these engagements have been compatible with the continued independence of Deloitte & Touche LLP in serving as our independent auditors.

Engagements of Deloitte & Touche LLP by CNA and its subsidiaries are reviewed and approved by the independent audit committee of CNA under pre-approval policies adopted by that committee.

Audit Committee Report

Audit Committee Report

The primary role of the Board’s Audit Committee is to oversee our financial reporting process and manage our relationship with our independent auditors. For more information about the Audit Committee’s responsibilities please see “Board Committees” on page 13. In fulfilling its responsibilities, the Audit Committee has reviewed, and discussed with Loews’s management and independent auditors, the company’s audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022. The Audit Committee has also discussed with our independent auditors the matters required to be discussed by Auditing Standard No. 1301, “Communications with Audit Committees,” as adopted and as amended by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“PCAOB”).

In addition, the Audit Committee has discussed with the independent auditors their independence in relation to Loews and its management, including the matters in the written disclosures provided to the Audit Committee as required by applicable requirements of the PCAOB regarding the independent accountants’ communications with the Audit Committee concerning independence. We have determined that the provision of non-audit services provided by the auditors is compatible with maintaining the auditors’ independence. For more information about services provided by our independent auditors, please read “Audit Fees and Services,” in Proposal No. 4 on page 50.

The members of the Audit Committee rely without independent verification on the information provided to them by management and the independent auditors and on management’s representation that the company’s financial statements have been prepared with integrity and objectivity. They do not provide any expert or special assurance as to Loews’s financial statements or any professional certification as to the independent auditors’ work. Accordingly, the Audit Committee’s oversight does not provide an independent basis to determine that management has applied appropriate accounting and financial reporting principles or internal controls and procedures, that the audit of the company’s financial statements has been carried out in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, that Loews’s financial statements are presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, or that the company’s auditors are in fact “independent.”

Based upon the reviews and discussions referred to above, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board that the audited financial statements be included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, which has been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Proposal No. 5: Approve Amendment to Certificate of Incorporation

Proposal No. 5:

Approve Amendment to Certificate of Incorporation to Update Exculpation Provision

We are asking shareholders to approve an amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation to align the current exculpation provision with developing law. Currently, Article Tenth of the Certificate of Incorporation limits the monetary liability of directors for certain fiduciary duty breaches as allowed under Section 102(b)(7) of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”). Delaware recently updated Section 102(b)(7) to allow Delaware corporations to extend the exculpation provision to cover certain senior officers, in addition to directors. For both directors and officers, the liability limitation does not apply to breaches of the duty of loyalty, acts or omissions not in good faith or that involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, or any transaction in which the director or officer derived an improper personal benefit. In addition, for officers, amended Section 102(b)(7) only permits exculpation for direct claims brought by shareholders (as opposed to derivative claims made by shareholders on behalf of the company).

In light of this update, we are proposing to amend our Certificate of Incorporation to restate the exculpation provision to extend its coverage to certain senior officers to the extent permitted under amended Section 102(b)(7). As a result, both directors and officers would be protected from monetary liability for fiduciary duty breaches to the extent allowed under the DGCL.

The Board believes it is important to provide protection to officers to the extent permitted by the DGCL to attract and retain key executive talent. This protection has long been afforded to directors, and Delaware law now allows it to be extended to certain senior officers. Adopting an exculpation provision that aligns with amended Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL could prevent protracted litigation that distracts from our primary objective of creating shareholder value over the long term. In addition, as we expect other companies to update their charters to align with amended Section 102(b)(7), our ability to attract and retain highly qualified officer candidates may be adversely impacted if we do not similarly do so. For these reasons, the Board believes that the proposal to amend our Certificate of Incorporation as described herein is in the best interests of the company and its shareholders, and has unanimously adopted a resolution to amend our Certificate of Incorporation, subject to our shareholders’ approval.

Loews Corporation 2023 Proxy 53

Proposal No. 5: Approve Amendment to Certificate of Incorporation

Accordingly, we ask our shareholders to vote on the following resolution:

“RESOLVED, that the company’s shareholders approve an amendment to the company’s restated certificate of incorporation to amend and restate Article Tenth, which shall read in its entirety as follows:

TENTH: No director or officer of the Corporation shall be liable to the Corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director or officer, as applicable, except to the extent such an exemption from liability or limitation thereof is not permitted under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware as presently in effect or as the same may hereafter be amended. No amendment to or repeal of this provision shall apply to or have any effect on the liability or alleged liability of any director or officer of the Corporation for or with respect to any acts or omissions of such director or officer occurring prior to such amendment or repeal.

The provisions of this Article Tenth shall not be deemed to limit or preclude indemnification of a director or officer of the Corporation for any liability which has not been limited by the provisions of this Article Tenth.”

Voting

As of March 14, 2023, the record date for determination of shareholders entitled to notice of and to vote at the Annual Meeting, there were 230,876,263 shares of our common stock outstanding. Each outstanding share of our common stock is entitled to one vote on all matters that may come before the Annual Meeting. All proxies properly voted in accordance with the instructions below prior to the Annual Meeting and not revoked will be voted at the Annual Meeting. You may revoke your proxy at any time before it is exercised by giving notice in writing to our Corporate Secretary, by granting a proxy bearing a later date or by voting in person at the Annual Meeting.

Internet Availability of Proxy Materials. Under Securities and Exchange Commission rules, we have elected to make our proxy materials available to our shareholders over the Internet, rather than mailing paper copies of those materials to each shareholder. We expect to begin mailing an Important Notice Regarding the Availability of Proxy Materials (a “Notice”) on or about March [  ], 2023. The Notice contains instructions describing how to access our proxy materials and vote shares by the Internet or by telephone. If you receive a Notice only and would like to receive a printed copy of the proxy materials, please follow the instructions printed on the Notice to request that a printed copy be mailed to you.

Voting by Proxy. Whether or not you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, we urge you to vote and submit your proxy in advance of the meeting by one of the methods below. Please have your proxy card, voting instruction form or Notice in hand when voting.

▪ Internet: go to www.proxyvote.com

▪ Telephone: call 1-800-690-6903

▪ Mail: if you received a paper copy of the proxy materials by mail, you can vote by signing, dating and mailing the proxy card in the enclosed self-addressed envelope

Voting in Person. All shareholders may vote in person at the Annual Meeting. You also may be represented by another person at the Annual Meeting by executing a proper proxy designating that person. If your shares are held in street name, you must obtain a valid legal proxy, executed in your favor, from your broker or other holder of record to be able to vote at the Annual Meeting.

Admittance to the Annual Meeting. The Annual Meeting is open to holders of our common stock. To attend the meeting, you will need to register upon arrival. We may check for your name on our shareholders’ list and ask you to produce a valid photo ID. If your shares are held in street name, you should bring your most recent brokerage account statement or other evidence of your share ownership. If we cannot verify that you own our common stock, it is possible that you will not be admitted to the meeting.

Quorum. A quorum will be present at the Annual Meeting if holders of a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of our common stock on the record date are represented at the Annual Meeting in person or by proxy. If a quorum is not present at the Annual Meeting, we expect to postpone or adjourn the Annual Meeting to solicit additional proxies. Abstentions and broker non-votes (as defined below) will be counted as shares present and entitled to vote for the purpose of determining whether a quorum is present.

Loews Corporation 2023 Proxy 55

Additional Information

Broker Non-votes. Shares with respect to which a broker indicates that it does not have authority to vote on a matter will be considered “broker non-votes.” Broker non-votes occur on a matter when a bank, broker or other nominee is not permitted by applicable regulatory requirements to vote on that matter without instruction from the owner of the shares and no instruction is given. Absent instructions from you, your broker may vote your shares on the ratification of the appointment of our independent auditors (Proposal No. 4), but may not vote your shares on the election of directors (Proposal No. 1), the advisory “say-on-pay” vote (Proposal No. 2), the advisory vote on the frequency of future advisory “say-on-pay” votes (Proposal No. 3) or the vote on the proposed amendment to our certificate of incorporation (Proposal No. 5).

Vote Standard for Election of Directors. In an uncontested election, such as the election to be held at our Annual Meeting (Proposal No. 1), a nominee for director will be elected to the Board by a majority of the votes cast with respect to the nominee. You may vote for any one or more nominees, against any one or more nominees or abstain from voting with respect to any one or more nominees. Shares that are voted to abstain with respect to any one or more nominees and broker non-votes will not be counted as votes cast and, therefore, will have no effect on the outcome of the voting for directors. If an incumbent nominee does not receive a majority of the votes cast in an uncontested election, our by-laws require that director to tender his or her resignation and the Nominating and Governance Committee, or such other committee designated by the Board, to consider whether to accept or reject that resignation. The Board will act on the committee’s recommendation and publicly disclose its decision.

Vote Standard for Advisory Vote on the Frequency of Future Advisory “Say-on-Pay” Votes. A majority of the votes cast is required to approve the advisory vote on the frequency of future “say-on-pay” votes (Proposal No. 3). You may vote to hold such future votes every one year, two years or three years, or to abstain. Shares that are voted to abstain and broker non-votes will not be counted as votes cast and, therefore, will have no effect on the outcome of the voting for this proposal. If none of the three frequency choices receives a majority of votes cast, our Board will consider the frequency that receives the plurality of votes cast as the recommendation of the shareholders.

Vote Standard for the Amendment to Our Certificate of Incorporation. Votes representing a majority of our common stock outstanding are required to approve the proposed amendment to our certificate of incorporation (Proposal No. 5). You may vote for, against or abstain. Shares that are voted to abstain and broker non-votes will have the same effect as votes cast against the proposed amendment.

Votes Required to Adopt Other Proposals. A majority of the votes cast is required to approve each of the other proposals (Proposals No. 2 and 4) to be voted on at the Annual Meeting. For each such proposal, you may vote for, against or abstain. Shares that are voted to abstain with respect to any one or more of these matters and broker non-votes will not be counted as votes cast and, therefore, will have no effect on the outcome of the voting for these proposals.

Confidentiality. Our Board has adopted a policy of confidentiality regarding the voting of shares. Under this policy, all proxies, ballots and voting tabulations that identify how an individual shareholder has voted at the Annual Meeting will be kept confidential from us, except where disclosure is required by applicable law, a shareholder expressly requests disclosure, or in the case of a contested proxy solicitation. Proxy tabulators and inspectors of election will be employees of Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. or another third party and not our employees.

Other Matters

We know of no other matters to be brought before the Annual Meeting. If other matters should properly come before the meeting, proxies will be voted on these matters in accordance with the best judgment of the persons appointed as proxies.

Cost of Proxy Solicitation. We will bear all costs in connection with the solicitation of proxies for the Annual Meeting. We intend to request brokerage houses, custodians, nominees and others who hold our common stock in their names to solicit proxies from the persons who beneficially own the stock, and we will reimburse these brokerage houses, custodians, nominees and others for their out-of-pocket expenses in connection therewith. We have engaged Innisfree M&A Incorporated to solicit proxies for us, at an anticipated cost of approximately $15,000. In addition to the use of the mail, solicitation may be made by Innisfree or our employees by telephone, over the Internet, by e-mail or by other electronic transmission.

Householding. To reduce the expenses of delivering duplicate proxy materials, we may take advantage of the Securities and Exchange Commission’s “householding” rules that permit us to deliver only one set of proxy materials to shareholders who share an address, unless otherwise requested. If you share an address with another shareholder and have received only one set of proxy materials, you may request a separate copy of these materials at no cost to you by contacting us at Loews Corporation, Attn: Corporate Secretary, 667 Madison Avenue, New York, New York 10065-8087 or at (212) 521-2000. For future annual meetings, you may request separate voting materials, or request that we send only one set of proxy materials to you if you are receiving multiple copies, by calling or writing to us at the phone number and address given above.
