PROXY STATEMENT
April 6, 2023
INTRODUCTION
This proxy statement is furnished in connection with the solicitation by the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Tutor Perini Corporation (the “Company,” “Tutor Perini,” “TPC,” “we,” “us” or “our”) of proxies for use in voting at the 2023 Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the “Annual Meeting”) to be held at our corporate headquarters, 15901 Olden Street, Sylmar, California, on May 17, 2023 at 11:30 a.m. Pacific Time, and any adjournment or postponement thereof. Only shareholders of record as of the close of business on March 20, 2023 (the “Record Date”) are entitled to notice of and to vote at the meeting and any adjournments or postponements thereof. As of the Record Date, the Company had 51,637,680 shares of common stock outstanding. Each share of common stock is entitled to one vote.
At the Annual Meeting, our shareholders will consider and vote on the following matters:
Proposal 1, for the election of each of the 10 nominees for director named in this proxy statement, requires the affirmative vote of a plurality of the votes cast by the shares entitled to vote in the election. You may vote FOR any or all director nominees or WITHHOLD your vote from any or all of the director nominees.
We recommend a vote FOR the election of each director nominee.
Proposal 2, for ratification of the selection of Deloitte & Touche LLP (“Deloitte”) as the Company’s independent auditors for 2023, requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the votes cast on the proposal.
We recommend a vote FOR the ratification of the selection of Deloitte as independent auditors.
Proposal 3, for approval on an advisory (non-binding) basis of the compensation paid to the Company’s named executive officers, as disclosed in the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” in this proxy statement and the executive compensation tables and related narrative discussion that follow. Approval of the proposal requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast on the proposal. Although this proposal is advisory in nature, which means that the vote is not binding upon the Company, as they have in past years, the Board and the Compensation Committee will consider our shareholders’ vote on this proposal when setting our executive compensation program.
We recommend a vote FOR the approval of our executive compensation as reported in this proxy statement.

Proposal 4 for an advisory (non-binding) vote, on whether future advisory votes on executive compensation, as discussed in Proposal 3, should occur every one year, every two years or every three years. The affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast on the proposal will determine the shareholders’ preferred frequency of future advisory votes on executive compensation. If none of the options receives the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast on the proposal, the option that receives the greatest number of votes will be considered the option selected by stockholders. Although this proposal is advisory in nature, which means that the vote is not binding upon the Company, the opinions expressed by shareholders on this matter will be taken into consideration by the Board regarding the future frequency of advisory votes on executive compensation.
We recommend a vote for every ONE YEAR with respect to the frequency of future advisory votes on executive compensation.
On or about April 6, 2023, proxy materials for the Annual Meeting, including this proxy statement and the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, were made available over the Internet to shareholders entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. The proxy materials may be accessed by visiting http://investors.tutorperini.com/events-calendar/proxy-voting.

INFORMATION REGARDING THE ANNUAL MEETING
Attending the Annual Meeting
Shareholders of record or beneficial owners of our common stock as of the Record Date are entitled to participate in and vote at the Annual Meeting. Shareholders of record may be asked to present valid picture identification, such as a driver’s license or passport, for admission to the Annual Meeting. In addition, due to continued COVID-19 safety precautions, shareholder attendees will be asked to present proof of COVID-19 vaccination (i.e., a record of having received two doses of the Pfizer or Moderna COVID-19 vaccine or one dose of the Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccine) in order to participate without having to wear a protective face mask. Unvaccinated attendees or those attendees that cannot provide proof of vaccination will be required to wear a protective face mask. The Company reserves the right to modify its masking policy for the Annual Meeting in accordance with any changes to applicable governmental policies or ordinances. Seating and parking are limited. Each shareholder may appoint only one proxy holder or representative to attend the meeting on his or her behalf.
If your shares are registered in the name of a bank or brokerage firm (your record holder), you may be asked to provide proof of beneficial ownership as of the Record Date, such as a brokerage account statement, a copy of the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials or voting instruction form provided by your bank, broker or other holder of record, or other similar evidence of ownership, as well as picture identification, for admission.
Proxies and Voting Procedures
In advance of the Annual Meeting, you may vote your shares over the Internet at www.proxyvote.com or telephonically by dialing 1-800-690-6903, as discussed in the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials mailed to shareholders of record. Proxies submitted via the Internet or by telephone must be received by 8:59 p.m., Pacific Time on May 16, 2023. You may request a printed copy of the proxy materials by following the procedures set forth in the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials, and you may vote your shares by following the instructions on the enclosed proxy card.

If the shares you own are held in “street name” by a bank or brokerage firm, you are considered the “beneficial owner” of such shares, and your bank or brokerage firm will provide you a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials, or a printed set of proxy materials together with a voting instruction form, which you may use to direct how your shares will be voted. In order to vote your shares, you must follow the voting instructions forwarded to you by, or on behalf of, that organization. Brokerage firms, banks and other fiduciaries or nominees are required to request voting instructions for shares they hold on behalf of customers and others. As the beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your broker, bank or other nominee or fiduciary how to vote, and you are also invited to attend the Annual Meeting. Brokers are not permitted to vote on certain proposals and may not vote on any of the proposals unless you provide voting instructions. Voting your shares will help to ensure that your interests are represented at the meeting. We encourage you to provide instructions to your broker, bank or other nominee or fiduciary to vote your shares. Since a beneficial owner is not the record shareholder, you may not vote the shares in person at the Annual Meeting, unless you obtain a legal proxy from the broker, bank or other nominee or fiduciary that holds your shares giving you the right to vote the shares at the meeting.
Electronic Availability of Proxy Statement and 2022 Annual Report
As permitted by Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules, we are making this proxy statement and our 2022 Annual Report available to shareholders electronically via the Internet at http://investors.tutorperini.com/events-calendar/proxy-voting. On April 6, 2023, we mailed to our shareholders a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials containing instructions on how to access this proxy statement and our 2022 Annual Report and how to vote online. If you received that notice, you will not receive a printed copy of the proxy materials, unless you request one by following the instructions contained in the notice. We believe that providing our proxy materials over the Internet increases the ease and ability of our shareholders to connect with the information they need and reduces the environmental impact of our Annual Meeting.
Quorum
The presence, in person or by proxy, of outstanding shares of common stock representing a majority of the shares entitled to vote is necessary to constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at the Annual Meeting. Shares that reflect abstentions or broker non-votes will be counted for purposes of determining whether a quorum is present for the transaction of business at the Annual Meeting.
2


Abstentions and Broker Non-Votes
An “abstention” occurs when a shareholder sends in a proxy with explicit instructions to decline to vote regarding a particular matter. For purposes of establishing a quorum, abstentions in person and proxies received but marked as abstentions as to any or all matters to be voted on count as the shares being present.
If your shares are held for you in “street name” (i.e., you own your shares through a brokerage, bank or other institutional account), you are considered the beneficial owner of those shares, but not the record holder. This means that you vote by providing instructions to your broker rather than to the Company. Brokers holding shares must vote according to specific instructions they receive from the beneficial owners of those shares. If brokers do not receive specific instructions, brokers may in some cases vote the shares in their discretion, but they are not permitted to vote on certain proposals and may elect not to vote on any of the proposals unless you provide voting instructions. If you do not provide voting instructions and the broker elects to vote your shares on some but not all matters, it will result in a “broker non-vote” for the matters on which the broker does not vote.
Abstentions and broker non-votes are not considered as votes cast and will have no effect on the outcome of the vote on the election of the nominees for director or on any other matters proposed for a vote at the Annual Meeting.
Proxy Solicitation
In addition to solicitation by mail, our directors, officers and employees may solicit proxies from Tutor Perini shareholders by telephone, facsimile or other electronic means of communication. These persons will not receive additional or special compensation for such solicitation services. The Company also has retained the services of Alliance Advisors, LLC to assist as needed in the proxy preparation, review and solicitation process for a fee of up to $15,000 plus reimbursement of certain out-of-pocket costs. Furthermore, we pay the cost of soliciting proxies, which may include the reimbursement of brokers’, banks’ and other nominees’ expenses for sending proxy materials and obtaining voting instructions from their customers.
Revocation of Proxies
If you execute and return a proxy or vote via the Internet or telephonically in accordance with the instructions provided in the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials, your proxy may be revoked at any time before it is voted by providing written notice to our Corporate Secretary, by the subsequent execution and delivery of another proxy, or by voting during the Annual Meeting. Please note that if you have instructed your broker to vote your shares, the options for revoking your proxy described above do not apply and you must, instead, follow the directions provided by your broker to change those instructions.
Adjournments and Postponements
In accordance with the Company’s by-laws (the “By-laws”), the Annual Meeting may be adjourned or postponed, including for the purpose of soliciting additional proxies, by action of the presiding officer of the Annual Meeting. Additionally, the Annual Meeting may be postponed and rescheduled by the Board. There may be no notice of the time, date and place of the adjourned meeting, other than by announcement made at the Annual Meeting, regardless of whether or not a quorum is present. Any adjournment or postponement of the Annual Meeting for the purpose of soliciting additional proxies will allow the Company’s shareholders who have already sent their proxies to revoke them any time prior to their use at the Annual Meeting as adjourned or postponed.

Board Recommendation
THE TUTOR PERINI BOARD OF DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS A VOTE “FOR” EACH OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ NOMINEES FOR ELECTION AS DIRECTOR.
INFORMATION ABOUT THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS
Board Composition
The Board currently consists of 10 directors, all of whose terms expire upon the election of their successors at the Annual Meeting or upon their successors’ earlier election and qualification, or until their earlier death, resignation, removal or
6


disqualification. As further described below, the Board and the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee are committed to identifying the most qualified director candidates who can make a significant contribution to the Board, including candidates who are independent and who represent diversity in areas such as skills, experience, gender, ethnicity, age, religion, nationality, disability, sexual orientation and cultural background. The Board believes that its current members possess a strong mix of skills, experience and attributes that are beneficial to the Company and our shareholders.
Effective September 8, 2008 upon completion of the merger between Perini Corporation (“Perini”) with Tutor-Saliba, the Company entered into a shareholders agreement (as subsequently amended, the “Amended Shareholders Agreement”) with Mr. Tutor, as the shareholder representative, and each of the former Tutor-Saliba shareholders who became shareholders of Tutor Perini. Under the Amended Shareholders Agreement, Mr. Tutor (as the representative of the former Tutor-Saliba shareholders) has the right to designate one nominee for election as a member of the Board (and thereafter, for nomination for election), so long as Mr. Tutor and the trusts he controls (the “Tutor Group”) own at least 11.25% of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock. For more information, see “Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions—Amended Shareholders Agreement.” Mr. Tutor elected to exercise his right to designate one nominee to the Board in November 2013, when he designated Mr. Feltenstein for nomination and election to the Board. The Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee reviewed Mr. Feltenstein’s qualifications and his appointment to the Board was unanimously approved by the Board.
Director Independence

The Board assesses its directors’ independence from the Company annually, pursuant to Section 303A of the NYSE Listed Company Manual. As of its most recent assessment, the Board has affirmatively determined that the following current Board members are independent directors: Mr. Arkley, Ms. Desai, Dr. Horodniceanu, Mr. Klein, Mr. Lieber, Mr. Oklak, Mr. Oneglia and Ms. Reiss. In addition, all of the members of the Audit, Corporate Governance and Nominating and Compensation committees are independent under the applicable NYSE listing standards and SEC rules. The Board also affirmatively determined that Dickran M. Tevrizian, Jr., who was not nominated for re-election to the Board upon the expiration of his term at the Company’s 2022 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, was an independent director and, as a member of the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee, was independent under applicable listing standards and SEC rules. In making its determination of independence, the Board considered each director’s relationship with the Company and its management. Regarding the Compensation Committee, the Board considered any sources of compensation paid to the directors by the Company, as well as whether the director is affiliated with the Company or any of the Company’s subsidiaries or affiliates. The Board also broadly considered all relevant facts and circumstances when assessing the materiality of each of the director’s relationships with the Company. The Board considered a broad range of possible relationships, including, among others, commercial, industry, banking, consulting, legal, accounting, charitable and familial.
As part of its review, the Board considered the Company’s business relationships with firms affiliated with Mr. Arkley and Mr. Oneglia, and concluded that those relationships were not material and, therefore, both individuals are independent. A summary of the Board’s analysis follows:
With respect to Mr. Arkley, the Board considered the relationship between the Company and Alliant, of which Mr. Arkley has served as the President of Alliant Retail Property and Casualty since March 2022 and served as President of Alliant Specialty Group from April 2017 to March 2022. Consistent with NYSE Listed Company Manual Section 303A.02(a), the Board determined that the Company’s relationship with Alliant did not impact Mr. Arkley’s independence from Tutor Perini because of the following: (1) services provided by Alliant are supplied to Tutor Perini on terms similar to Alliant’s other clients; (2) income generated by Alliant for services provided to Tutor Perini are not material to Alliant’s U.S. or consolidated operations; (3) Mr. Arkley is not personally involved in the management of Alliant’s services provided to the Company; (4) Mr. Arkley recuses himself on all Board decisions regarding insurance; (5) Mr. Arkley does not have the authority to unilaterally negotiate Alliant’s fees charged to the Company; (6) commissions paid by the Company are a) established by arrangements negotiated between Alliant and insurance carriers, b) applied uniformly to all of Alliant’s customers and c) publicly disclosed; and (7) remuneration paid to Mr. Arkley for his role at Alliant is not directly tied to the Company’s use of Alliant’s services.
Additionally, in determining Mr. Arkley’s independence, the Board considered, as it does for all of its directors, the qualitative and quantitative factors in NYSE Listed Company Manual Section 303A.02(b) and determined that none of these factors impacted Mr. Arkley’s independence:
i.whether the director was employed by the Company in the last three years or has an immediate family member who was an executive officer of the Company in the last three years;
7


ii.whether the director or an immediate family member accepted compensation from the Company in excess of $120,000 during any 12 consecutive months in the last three years, other than remuneration for services provided as a director;
iii.whether a) the director is a partner or employee at the Company’s auditor, b) the director has an immediate family member who is a partner of the auditor, or who is an employee of the auditor and works on the Company’s audit, or c) the director or immediate family member was a partner or an employee of the auditor in the last three years and worked on the Company’s audit;
iv.whether the director or an immediate family member is or has been in the last three years an executive officer of another entity where any of the Company’s executive officers served on the other entity’s compensation committee at the same time; and
v.whether the Company made or received payments in the last three years in excess of the greater of 2% of the counterparty’s gross revenue and $1 million to an organization where a director is an employee or has an immediate family member that is an executive officer.
Finally, the Board considered other qualitative factors, including those that could result in only the appearance of a lack of independence, and concluded that Mr. Arkley is independent in both fact and appearance.
For Mr. Oneglia, the Board considered the relationship between O&G, of which Mr. Oneglia is Vice Chairman of the Board of Directors and a shareholder, and Tutor Perini, including the construction joint venture between Tutor Perini and O&G. The Board determined that the existing joint venture arrangement does not impact Mr. Oneglia’s independence from Tutor Perini because of the following: (1) the joint venture is formed for the limited purposes of performing specific contractual requirements for owners as is commonplace in the construction business; (2) Mr. Oneglia recuses himself on all Board decisions related to the joint venture between the Company and O&G; (3) Mr. Oneglia is not personally involved in the management of the joint venture; and (4) Mr. Oneglia does not have the authority to unilaterally negotiate and approve the terms of the joint venture arrangement. In addition, the full Board has, in each instance of a proposed joint venture, assured itself that the joint venture is on terms no more favorable to O&G than have been the terms of other joint ventures in which the Company has participated.
The Board also considered the qualitative and quantitative factors pursuant to NYSE Listed Company Manual Section 303A.02, outlined above with respect to Mr. Arkley, and determined that none of these factors impacted Mr. Oneglia’s independence. As a result, the Board concluded that Mr. Oneglia is independent in both fact and appearance.
Mr. Tutor is an executive officer and employee of the Company, and Mr. Feltenstein is Mr. Tutor’s father-in-law. Accordingly, neither of them serves on standing committees reserved for independent directors.
Communications with the Board
The Board welcomes the submission of any comments or concerns from shareholders, employees and other interested parties. Those who wish to communicate with the Board may submit communications in writing to Tutor Perini Corporation, 15901 Olden Street, Sylmar, California 91342 and marked to the attention of the Board of Directors or any of its committees or individual directors. All comments or concerns from shareholders and other interested parties will be forwarded directly to the appropriate Board committee or specific directors, as well as to the Company’s Compliance Officer, except that the Board has instructed our Corporate Secretary to review correspondence directed to the Board and not to forward certain items that are unrelated to the duties and responsibilities of the Board, such as resumes or business solicitations, or that are otherwise inappropriate.
In order to facilitate communications with the independent directors, we have a secure telephone number (800-489-8689) whereby shareholders, employees and other interested parties may make their concerns known directly and confidentially to the independent directors, the Audit Committee or the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee. Shareholders and other interested parties can also communicate with the independent directors via email at board@tutorperini.com.
CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
Board Leadership
Mr. Tutor is Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer. The Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer positions are separately designated offices of the Company, as defined in the By-laws. However, these offices may be held by the same person. Mr. Tutor’s Employment Agreement stipulates that he shall serve as the Chairman of the Board of Directors
8


and the Company’s Chief Executive Officer through December 31, 2024, and as Executive Chairman of the Board from January 1, 2025 through December 31, 2026. Furthermore, the Board has evaluated these positions and determined that Mr. Tutor’s continued participation in both positions is important to the continued success of the Company for the following reasons, among others: (i) his iconic role in the construction industry with a proven record of successfully bidding for and managing large, complex building and civil projects; (ii) his strong business relationships, including those with customers, suppliers, subcontractors and surety and insurance partners; and (iii) his business acumen, strategic sense, discipline and sound judgment, which have produced a record of outstanding project execution and have advantageously positioned the Company for future growth and success through the significant additional infrastructure spending that is anticipated over the coming years.
Mr. Klein is the Vice Chairman of the Board and Lead Independent Director elected as such by unanimous vote of the independent directors. In his capacity as Lead Independent Director, Mr. Klein has the following duties and authority:
Chairing any meeting of the non-management directors in executive session;
Meeting with any director who is not adequately performing his duties as a member of the Board or any committee;
Serving as a liaison between the Chairman of the Board and the independent directors;
Facilitating communications between other members of the Board and the Chairman of the Board; however, each director is free to communicate directly with the Chairman of the Board;
Working with the Chairman of the Board to prepare the agenda for Board meetings and determining the need for special meetings of the Board; and
Consulting with the Chairman of the Board on matters relating to corporate governance and Board performance.
Committees and Meetings of the Board of Directors
During 2022, the Board met four times. During each incumbent director’s term of office in 2022, each director attended at least 75% of the total number of meetings of the Board and the total number of meetings held by each committee on which he or she served during the period in which he or she served as a director. Our non-management directors met in executive session on the same day as each of the four Board meetings in 2022. The members of the Board are encouraged to attend our annual shareholder meetings. All 11 of the directors then serving attended the 2022 Annual Meeting of Shareholders.
Our By-laws authorize the Board to appoint one or more committees, each consisting of one or more directors. The Board currently has three standing committees: an Audit Committee, a Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee and a Compensation Committee. The Board reviews the composition of its standing committees at least annually to identify opportunities to further enhance their effectiveness, as well as to bring fresh perspectives to the committees. Each of the standing committees of our Board has a written charter, which satisfies the requirements of the corporate governance rules issued by the SEC and the NYSE for each respective committee. Each standing committee reviews its charter annually and revises it as appropriate. We maintain copies of the charters of each of the standing committees of our Board in the “Investors” section of our website, under the “Corporate Governance” subsection at http://investors.tutorperini.com/corporate-governance and provide copies in print, without charge, to any shareholder requesting a copy.
The Board’s Role in Risk Oversight
Management is responsible for the Company’s day-to-day risk management activities. The Board is responsible for risk oversight, which includes identifying, evaluating and addressing potential risks that may exist at the enterprise, strategic, financial, operational, compliance and reporting levels, including cybersecurity, data privacy and other risks. The Board also plays an integral role in providing risk oversight on potential related party transactions and transactions outside of the normal course of our operations. Our Board administers its risk oversight function as a whole and through its committees. The various committees of the Board oversee certain risks including, but not limited to, the following:
Audit Committee – Regularly reviews the integrity of the Company’s financial reporting process including internal control over financial reporting and discusses with management certain risk exposures, including cybersecurity and information technology risk, their potential financial impact on the company and its risk mitigation strategies.
9


Compensation Committee – Regularly reviews the compensation policies and practices throughout the Company to confirm that these plans do not encourage excessive risk-taking.
Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee – Periodically reviews and assesses the adequacy of the Company’s governance structure, including the Corporate Governance Guidelines and the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics.
The Board meets, at least quarterly, with management to discuss key risks to our operations and our strategy, as well as risk mitigation plans and activities.
Having a Lead Independent Director in place, as discussed above, helps to ensure that the Board is fulfilling its role in risk oversight.
Corporate Governance Guidelines and Code of Business Conduct and Ethics
We have developed Corporate Governance Guidelines and a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics to outline our commitment to carefully govern the operation of our business and compliance with applicable laws and regulations, while maintaining the highest ethical standards. The Code applies to all of our officers, directors, agents and employees, including our principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principal accounting officer. Tutor Perini’s Corporate Governance Guidelines and our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics are also available in the “Corporate Governance” subsection of our website at http://investors.tutorperini.com/corporate-governance. Interested parties may obtain printed copies of these documents by writing to or calling the Investor Relations Department of the Company at 15901 Olden Street, Sylmar, California 91342; Telephone: (818) 362-8391; e-mail: investor.relations@tutorperini.com. Any amendments to, or waivers of, the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics that apply to our executive officers or directors, including our principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principal accounting officer, will be disclosed on our website within four business days following the date of such amendment or waiver.
Nominations for Director
The Board considers candidates who are independent, possess relevant business, professional or board experience to make a significant contribution to the Board and have sufficient availability to attend to the business of the Company. Annually, the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee conducts an evaluation of the Board to determine whether it is functioning effectively and recommends to the full Board the slate of director-nominees to be nominated for election at the next annual meeting of shareholders. Potential candidates for the Board may include candidates nominated by shareholders in accordance with our By-laws, those identified by a search firm retained for such purpose or candidates recommended by other persons, including current directors or executive officers. Pursuant to the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee charter, the process and criteria for considering the recommendations of shareholders with respect to candidates for election to the Board is the same as those used for candidates recommended by other parties. The Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee values and considers diversity in skills, experience, gender, ethnicity, age, religion, nationality, disability, sexual orientation and cultural background as important factors when identifying its pool of potential director nominees and when evaluating the Board as a group.
A shareholder who wishes to recommend a director candidate to the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee for the 2024 Annual Meeting of Shareholders should submit the recommendation in writing to Tutor Perini Corporation, 15901 Olden Street, Sylmar, California 91342, Attention: Corporate Secretary, and follow the requirements for shareholder nominations of directors set forth below under “Shareholder Proposals for 2024 Annual Meeting.”
Such shareholder notice shall provide the information and satisfy the other requirements set forth in the By-laws.
Audit Committee
The Audit Committee currently consists of Dale Anne Reiss (Chair), Jigisha Desai, Michael R. Klein, Robert C. Lieber and Dennis D. Oklak. The Board has determined that each member of the Audit Committee is “financially literate,” as defined in the NYSE listing standards, and meets the independence and experience requirements for members of an audit committee set forth in the rules of the SEC and the NYSE listing standards. Based upon review of their qualifications, the Board has designated Ms. Reiss, Ms. Desai, Mr. Klein, Mr. Lieber and Mr. Oklak as “Audit Committee financial experts” as defined by the rules of the SEC. None of the Audit Committee members serve on the audit committees of more than two other public companies. The duties of the Audit Committee include, but are not limited to, the following:
10


Appointing, compensating, retaining and overseeing the work of the independent auditors;
Reviewing and evaluating the qualifications, performance and independence of the independent auditors and the lead partner of the independent auditors and presenting the committee’s conclusions to the full Board;
Meeting with management and the independent auditor, either together or separately, to review and discuss the Company’s annual audited financial statements and quarterly financial statements;
Reviewing and pre-approving all permissible non-audit services to be performed by the independent auditor, considering whether the performance of such permissible non-audit services is compatible with the auditors’ independence;
Reviewing and discussing the adequacy and effectiveness of the Company’s internal controls, including any significant deficiencies in internal controls and significant changes in internal controls with the independent auditor and management;
Reviewing and approving all potential transactions with related parties; and

Establishing and overseeing procedures for handling reports of potential misconduct, including (a) violations of law or the Company’s codes of conduct, or (b) any complaints and the confidential, anonymous submission by employees of the Company of concerns regarding accounting, internal accounting controls, auditing and federal securities law matters.
The Audit Committee has the authority to retain special accounting, legal or other consultants, as deemed necessary. The Audit Committee met nineteen times during 2022, with eleven of those meetings held to discuss the property the Company acquired from an entity owned by Mr. Tutor, as further described in Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions.

REPORT OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE
The Audit Committee (the “Committee”) oversees the financial reporting process of the Company, on behalf of the Board of the Company in accordance with the Audit Committee charter. The Board, in its judgment, has determined that all members of the Committee meet the independence and experience requirements of the SEC and the NYSE. The Board has designated Dale Anne Reiss (Chair), Jigisha Desai, Michael R. Klein, Robert C. Lieber and Dennis D. Oklak as the Company’s “audit committee financial experts,” as defined by the rules of the SEC and NYSE, based on a review of their qualifications.
The Company's management is responsible for the financial reporting process and preparation of the quarterly and annual consolidated financial statements, including maintaining a system of internal control over financial reporting, as well as disclosure controls and procedures. The Committee is directly responsible for the appointment, compensation, retention, oversight and termination of the Company's independent auditors (Deloitte & Touche LLP, or “Deloitte,” an independent registered public accounting firm). The Committee is also responsible for the oversight of the Company’s internal audit function. In fulfilling its oversight responsibilities, the Committee meets with Deloitte, internal audit and management to review accounting, auditing, internal controls and financial reporting matters. Deloitte audits the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting and expresses its opinion thereon, in addition to auditing the annual consolidated financial statements and expressing an opinion whether those financial statements present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The Committee has adopted pre-approval policies and procedures for certain audit and non-audit services and evaluated whether those pre-approved services that Deloitte provides are consistent with the SEC’s rules and regulations on auditor independence. The Committee has the authority to engage outside legal counsel and others to obtain advice and assistance as deemed necessary.
In connection with the December 31, 2022 audited consolidated financial statements, the Committee:
Reviewed and discussed with management and Deloitte the Company's audited financial statements, including discussions regarding critical accounting policies, other financial accounting and reporting principles and practices appropriate for the Company, the quality of such principles and practices, and the reasonableness of significant judgments;
Reviewed and discussed with internal audit, management and Deloitte the Company's internal control over financial reporting, including a review of management's and Deloitte’s assessments of and reports on the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting and any significant deficiencies or material weaknesses;
Reviewed with management and legal counsel any significant legal and regulatory matters that may have had a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements;
Discussed with Deloitte the matters that are required to be discussed with the Company’s independent auditors by the applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“PCAOB”) and the SEC; and
Reviewed and considered the written disclosures and the letter regarding the independent auditors’ communications with the Committee concerning independence, which were received from Deloitte, as required by the applicable requirements of the PCAOB, and discussed with Deloitte its independence.
Based on the reviews and discussions above, the Committee recommended to the Board that the audited consolidated financial statements for 2022 be included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 for filing with the SEC. The Committee also recommended to the Board the reappointment of Deloitte as the independent auditors of the Company for 2023. The Board approved both recommendations made by the Committee and resolved to include Deloitte’s reappointment to the Company’s shareholders for ratification at the 2023 Annual Meeting.

Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee
The Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee currently consists of Peter Arkley (Chair), Jigisha Desai, Raymond R. Oneglia and Dale Anne Reiss. The Board has determined that each member of the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee is an independent director, as defined by the NYSE. The duties of the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee include the following:
Identifying individuals qualified to become directors and recommending to the full Board the persons to be nominated for election as directors;
Recommending director nominees for each committee of the Board and nominees for Chair of each committee;
Evaluating the independence of each director and so advising the Board;
Conducting a review and update, as necessary, of the Corporate Governance Guidelines and the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics;
Overseeing evaluations of the Board and each committee, including an annual self-evaluation of activities and performance; and
Nominating a Lead Independent Director whose duties include presiding at executive sessions of the non-management directors.
The Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee has the authority to retain consultants or other experts as it considers necessary to assist in the performance of its duties. The Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee met four times during 2022.
Compensation Committee
The Compensation Committee currently consists of Robert C. Lieber (Chair), Michael F. Horodniceanu and Michael R. Klein. The Board has determined that each member of the Compensation Committee is an independent director, as defined by the NYSE, and meets the additional independence requirements of the NYSE applicable to Compensation Committee members.
The principal powers and duties of the Compensation Committee as established by the Board are as follows:
Reviewing and approving the executive compensation programs and policies to assess whether they are consistent with the Company’s goals and objectives;
Reviewing compensation for non-management directors annually and recommending any changes to the Board;
Reviewing and approving corporate goals and objectives relevant to the compensation of the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”), evaluating the CEO’s performance in light of the established goals and objectives for such performance, and recommending to the independent directors the CEO’s compensation based on this evaluation for approval;
Overseeing the evaluation of other executive officers, and reviewing and approving the compensation of such other executive officers taking into account such factors as it deems appropriate, including, but not limited to, the recommendations of the CEO;

Reviewing, monitoring and approving or making recommendations to the Board, as appropriate, with respect to the adoption, amendment and termination of the incentive compensation and equity-based plans that are subject to Board approval, overseeing the administration and interpretation of such plans and discharging any duties imposed on the Committee by any of such plans;
Overseeing administration of the Company’s pension plans, including monitoring of investments, approval of Company contributions, and approval of significant changes to the plan documents; and
Review and discuss with management the Company’s Compensation Discussion and Analysis and related disclosures required by the SEC rules to be included in the Company’s annual report and proxy statement, and recommend to the
13


Board based on the review and discussions whether the Compensation Discussion and Analysis should be included in the annual report and proxy statement.
The Compensation Committee has the authority to retain special consultants to advise the Compensation Committee as it considers necessary. These compensation consultants report exclusively to the Compensation Committee, which has sole discretion to hire and fire the consultants and to approve their fees. The Compensation Committee retained the services of Meridian Compensation Partners, LLC (“Meridian”) in 2022. During the year, Meridian assisted the Compensation Committee with, among other things, analyzing and recommending the Company’s peer groups; designing future share-based compensation awards based on annualized stock price growth; and benchmarking the compensation of certain executive officers and non-management directors. The Compensation Committee considered independence factors under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the “Dodd-Frank Act”) and NYSE rules and concluded that the engagement of Meridian in 2022 did not give rise to any conflicts of interest.
The Compensation Committee met seven times during 2022.
CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
We have adopted a written Code of Business Conduct and Ethics for all officers, directors, agents and employees, which addresses potential conflict of interest situations, including related party transactions. Under this Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, any questions involving potential conflict of interest situations are required to be directed to our Corporate Compliance Officer or the Corporate Vice President of Human Resources, and suspected violations are required to be reported to the Chair of the Audit Committee. In addition, our Audit Committee is responsible for reviewing and evaluating potential related party transactions involving executive officers or directors and then advising the Board whether such transactions are appropriate, unless otherwise addressed by the full Board.
The transactions described below were reviewed and approved by the Audit Committee or the full Board, as applicable, in accordance with our policies involving potential conflict of interest situations.
Amended Shareholders Agreement
The Amended Shareholders Agreement provides for the following:
Mr. Tutor will be nominated for election to the Board as long as he serves as the Chief Executive Officer of Tutor Perini.
Mr. Tutor has the right to designate two nominees for election to the Board for so long as the Tutor Group owns at least 22.5% of the outstanding shares of common stock and one nominee if the Tutor Group owns less than 22.5% but at least 11.25% of the outstanding shares of common stock. Based on Mr. Tutor’s current ownership, he has the right to nominate one person to the Board. Mr. Tutor elected to exercise his right to designate one nominee to the Board when, in November 2013, he designated Mr. Feltenstein for nomination and election to the Board. Accordingly, at each meeting of shareholders at which directors are to be elected, we have agreed to nominate and recommend the shareholder representative’s designee and Mr. Tutor (as long as he serves as our Chief Executive Officer) for election to the Board, subject to certain limitations to comply with law, governance requirements or eligibility for listing on a securities exchange or if a nominee is deemed to be unfit to serve as a director of an NYSE-listed company or otherwise does not meet applicable eligibility criteria.
The Tutor Group has certain registration rights with respect to the shares of the common stock acquired pursuant to the merger. After March 8, 2009, Mr. Tutor, as shareholder representative, may require Tutor Perini, on up to three occasions, to register shares of common stock issued to the Tutor Group in connection with the merger for resale under the Securities Act in an underwritten offering. Additionally, if we propose to register any securities under the Securities Act, each member of the Tutor Group must receive notice of the registration and the opportunity to include its shares of the common stock in the registration. These “piggyback registration” rights are subject to customary conditions and limitations, including the right of the underwriters of an offering to limit the number of shares included in such registration and Tutor Perini’s right to decline a request to register shares. Tutor Perini is responsible for paying the expenses of any such registration.

Properties

We lease certain facilities at market lease rates from an entity indirectly owned and controlled by Mr. Tutor. Under these leases we paid $3.8 million and recognized expense of $4.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. On November 4, 2022, the Company purchased property from another entity owned by Mr. Tutor for $4.1 million, which is the amount that Mr. Tutor paid to acquire the property from an unrelated third party shortly before the Company decided that it wanted to own and operate the property. The Company is developing this property into an equipment yard that will replace an existing equipment yard currently leased from an entity owned by Mr. Tutor. In connection with the purchase of the property, the lease agreement related to the existing equipment yard was amended so that when the purchased equipment yard is complete, the Company will terminate its existing lease for the current equipment yard at no incremental cost to the Company (and without having to pay rent for the unused, remaining term of the existing lease, which runs through July 2038). Our participation in these lease agreements and the purchase of the property was reviewed and approved by the Audit Committee in accordance with the Audit Committee Charter.
O&G Joint Ventures
Mr. Oneglia is Vice Chairman of the Board of Directors of O&G. The Company occasionally forms construction project joint ventures with O&G, in which O&G may provide equipment, goods or services for the projects on customary trade terms. During the year ended December 31, 2022, we had one active joint venture with O&G for projects in Los Angeles, California in which the Company’s and O&G’s joint venture interests are 75% and 25%, respectively. No payments were made to O&G by the joint venture or the Company for equipment, goods or services during 2022. Our participation in this joint venture was reviewed and approved by the full Board in accordance with the Company’s policies. See “Director Independence” for additional information.
Alliant Insurance Services

Mr. Arkley is President of Alliant Retail Property and Casualty, which we use for various insurance-related services. The associated expense for services provided to the Company for the year ended December 31, 2022 was $11.4 million. As of December 31, 2022, we owed $1.6 million for services rendered. See “Director Independence” for additional information.

PROPOSAL 2: RATIFICATION OF APPOINTMENT OF AUDITORS
Our Audit Committee has selected Deloitte, an independent registered public accounting firm, as our auditors for the year ending December 31, 2023. Although shareholder approval of the selection of Deloitte is not required by law, the Board believes that it is advisable to give shareholders an opportunity to ratify this selection. If this proposal is not approved by our shareholders at the 2023 Annual Meeting, our Audit Committee will reconsider their selection of Deloitte. Deloitte has been our independent registered public accounting firm since 2002. Representatives of Deloitte will be present at the 2023 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, will have the opportunity to make a statement, if they so desire, and will be available to answer appropriate questions.
FEES PAID TO AUDIT FIRM
During the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, we retained Deloitte to provide services in the following categories and amounts:
20222021
Audit Fees$4,503,247 $4,336,459 
Audit-Related Fees(1)
72,420 70,135 
Tax Fees(2)

All Other Fees— — 
Total Fees$4,804,595 $4,586,940 
____________________________________________________________________________________________________
(1)Audit-related fees were primarily for assurance services that are not required by statute or regulation.
(2)Consists of fees for tax consulting primarily related to qualifications for certain tax benefits.
Pre-Approval Policy for Services Provided by our Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
The Audit Committee has established a policy to pre-approve all permissible audit and non-audit services provided by our independent registered public accounting firm consistent with applicable SEC rules. Our independent registered public accounting firm is prohibited from performing any management consulting projects. Our independent registered public accounting firm is also prohibited from providing tax consulting services relating to transactions or proposals in which the sole purpose may be tax avoidance or for which the tax treatment may not be supported by the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Prior to the engagement of our independent registered public accounting firm for the next year’s audit, management submits an aggregate of services expected to be rendered during that year for each of the categories of services described above to the Audit Committee for approval. Prior to engagement, the Audit Committee pre-approves these services by category of service. The fees are budgeted by category of service and the Audit Committee receives periodic reports from management and our independent registered public accounting firm on actual fees versus the budget by category of service. During the year, circumstances may arise when it may become necessary to engage our independent registered public accounting firm for additional services not contemplated in the original pre-approval of the services. In those instances, the Audit Committee is required to provide specific pre-approval before engaging our independent registered public accounting firm.
All of the services related to the above fees were pre-approved by the Audit Committee.
The Audit Committee may delegate pre-approval authority to one or more of its members, who are required to report, for informational purposes, any pre-approval decisions to the Audit Committee at its next regularly scheduled meeting.
Board Recommendation
THE TUTOR PERINI BOARD OF DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS A VOTE “FOR” RATIFICATION OF THE SELECTION OF DELOITTE & TOUCHE LLP AS INDEPENDENT AUDITORS FOR TUTOR PERINI FOR THE YEAR ENDING DECEMBER 31, 2023.
16


PROPOSAL 3: APPROVAL ON AN ADVISORY (NON-BINDING) BASIS OF THE COMPENSATION PAID TO TUTOR PERINI’S NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS
Section 951 of the Dodd-Frank Act and Section 14A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), require that the Company seek an advisory (non-binding) vote from its shareholders to approve the compensation of our named executive officers (“NEOs”), as disclosed in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis (“CD&A”) and executive compensation tables of this proxy statement. We currently conduct this advisory vote on an annual basis and, pending review of the results of Proposal 4, expect that we will conduct the next advisory vote following the 2023 Annual Meeting at the 2024 Annual Meeting of Shareholders.
As described in detail in the CD&A, we provide our executives with appropriate incentives to drive the success of our business and enhance shareholder value. We have designed an executive compensation program that is largely performance-based, that encourages executives to further the overall business strategy of the Company, and that aligns our NEOs’ interests with those of our shareholders. We provide compensation that is highly competitive and designed to attract and retain high-quality executives that can deliver successful results.
The vote on this resolution, commonly referred to as the “Say on Pay” resolution, is advisory and, therefore, not binding on the Company, the Compensation Committee or the Board. Although the vote is non-binding, the Compensation Committee will review the voting results in connection with its ongoing evaluation of, and future decisions regarding, changes and improvements to the Company’s executive compensation program.
Board Recommendation
THE TUTOR PERINI BOARD OF DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS SHAREHOLDERS VOTE “FOR” APPROVAL OF THE FOLLOWING RESOLUTION:
“RESOLVED, that the shareholders approve the compensation of the Named Executive Officers, as described in the CD&A, tabular disclosures and other narrative executive compensation disclosures in this proxy statement as required by the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission.”
17


PROPOSAL 4: ADVISORY VOTE ON THE FREQUENCY OF FUTURE ADVISORY VOTES ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

Pursuant to Section 14A of the Exchange Act, the Company is asking its shareholders to conduct an advisory vote on the frequency of future advisory votes on executive compensation. The proxy card provides for four choices on this proposal and shareholders may vote on whether the advisory vote on executive compensation should be held every one year, every two years, every three years or abstain from voting.

Although the Board and the Compensation Committee recognize the potential benefits of holding less frequent advisory votes on executive compensation (including allowing the Company additional time to effectively evaluate the relationship between executive compensation and long-term Company performance and shareholder return), we recognize that the widely adopted standard is to hold Say on Pay votes annually. The Board and Compensation Committee also acknowledge current shareholder expectations regarding having the opportunity to express their views on the Company’s executive compensation on an annual basis. Additionally, at the 2017 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, the Company held an advisory vote on the frequency of future advisory votes on executive compensation. Our shareholders approved, on an advisory basis, an annual advisory vote on executive compensation, and after consideration of the shareholders’ vote, the Board determined to proceed with an annual advisory vote on executive compensation. In light of investor expectations, prevailing market practice, and our current practice, our Board and the Compensation Committee recommend that the Company continue to hold an advisory vote on executive compensation every year.

The result of this advisory vote is not binding upon the Company and will not be construed as overruling a decision by the Board or the Compensation Committee. However, the Board values the opinions that shareholders express in their votes and in dialogue that the Company has with its shareholders. The Board will consider the outcome of the vote and shareholder feedback when deciding how frequently to conduct future advisory votes on executive compensation. Notwithstanding the Board’s recommendation and the outcome of the shareholder vote, the Board may in the future decide to conduct Say on Pay votes on a more or less frequent basis and may vary its practice based on factors such as discussions with shareholders and the adoption of material changes to its executive compensation programs.
Board Recommendation
THE TUTOR PERINI BOARD OF DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS SHAREHOLDERS VOTE FOR EVERY “ONE YEAR” WITH RESPECT TO THE FREQUENCY OF FUTURE ADVISORY VOTES ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION.

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

This section discusses executive compensation for 2022 for our NEOs: Ronald N. Tutor, Gary G. Smalley, Ghassan M. Ariqat, James A. Frost, Wendy A. Hallgren and Michael F. Smithson. While Mr. Frost was no longer serving as an executive officer as of December 31, 2022, he is included as an NEO because, other than the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, his total compensation would have made him one of the three most highly compensated individuals had he been serving as an executive officer at year-end.

Our core compensation philosophy is based on the concept of pay-for-performance. Accordingly, our executive compensation program is predicated on providing performance-based compensation to our NEOs that can allow them to earn incentive awards if they achieve financial goals that the Compensation Committee and the Board believe are critical to enhancing long-term shareholder value. The following discussion covers our executive compensation practices and the unique factors that play into these practices. We discuss the outcome of the 2022 advisory vote on our executive compensation, our shareholder communication efforts and the progress and improvements we have made on governance and executive compensation over the past several years. Finally, we discuss the process the Compensation Committee followed in deciding how to compensate our NEOs and the various elements of the NEOs’ compensation for 2022.
EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION PROGRAM AND PRACTICES
WHAT WE DO:
Pay-for-Performance Philosophy – We provide the majority of our NEOs’ compensation in the form of performance-based compensation, payment of which is generally tied to our financial performance. We utilize ambitious, but achievable, performance targets to provide our executives strong incentives to meet and exceed our financial performance objectives and maximize long-term shareholder value. As a result, if achieved performance exceeds target performance goals, our NEOs’ incentive payouts may significantly exceed target payout levels. Conversely, if achieved performance does not at least meet target performance goals, our NEOs’ incentive payouts may be significantly less than target payout levels (including no payout if threshold performance goals are not met). See section entitled “Compensation Philosophy and Objectives” for further details.
Ongoing Shareholder Communication Program – We maintain an open dialogue with our institutional shareholders to understand their views about our executive compensation program and to communicate the Company’s perspective on our compensation program. See section entitled “Shareholder Communication Program” for further details.
Benchmarking – We benchmark NEO compensation against our peer group comprised of publicly traded companies within the engineering and construction industry when evaluating and setting executive compensation.
Double-Trigger Vesting Acceleration of Equity Awards in Connection with a Change-in-Control – We have implemented double-trigger vesting of equity awards in connection with a change-in-control. This means that no outstanding equity awards vest solely in connection with a change-in-control. Instead, outstanding equity awards provide that they will vest upon an executive’s involuntary termination (without cause) or resignation for good reason that occurs within a specified period following the date of a change-in-control.
Stock Ownership Policy – We maintain a stock ownership policy under which the Chief Executive Officer is expected to hold stock valued at six times his base salary and the executive officers that report to the Chief Executive Officer are expected to hold stock valued at three times their base salary, to be met within five years of appointment. In addition, each of the Company’s non-management directors is expected to hold stock valued at five times the director’s annual cash retainer, within five years from the date of the director’s election to the Board. Shares owned directly or indirectly, the value of vested and unvested stock options and unvested restricted stock units (“RSUs”) are counted toward the guidelines. As of March 20, 2023, all NEOs and non-management directors were in compliance with these policies.
20


Stock Retention Policy – We maintain a stock retention policy under which our NEOs and certain other executives designated by the Compensation Committee are required to maintain beneficial ownership of at least 75% of net shares acquired through grants of equity-based compensation until they are no longer with the Company. As of March 20, 2023, all NEOs and other executives so designated by the Compensation Committee were in compliance with this policy.
Clawback Policy – We maintain a clawback policy under which the Company may recoup previously paid short- and long-term incentive awards that are based on financial statements that are later subject to restatement, in specific circumstances. We intend to adopt a clawback policy consistent with the requirements of Exchange Act Rule 10D-1 and applicable NYSE listing standards upon or prior to the effectiveness of such rules.
Mitigation of Undue Risk – Our compensation program is designed to discourage undue risk-taking by our NEOs, including caps on the maximum level of incentive payouts, stock ownership and retention policies, and a clawback policy. Risk identification and mitigation processes established by management and our Board’s oversight of these processes also serve to deter unacceptable risk taking. After considering these policies and processes, we do not believe that our compensation programs create risks that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse impact on the Company.
Independent Compensation Consultant – The Compensation Committee works on an as-needed basis with an independent compensation consultant on director and executive compensation-related matters. This consultant reports directly to the Compensation Committee and provides no other services to the Company.
WHAT WE DON’T DO:
No Dividends Paid on Unvested Equity Awards – We do not pay dividends or dividend equivalents on any unvested equity awards (for both time-based and performance-based awards).
No Change-In-Control Excise Tax Gross-Ups – We have no agreements or plans in place that would provide Section 280G excise tax gross-ups to any NEO, and we will not enter into any new agreements or plans that would provide such gross-ups.
No Repricing of Underwater Stock Options (without Shareholder Approval) – We will not reduce the exercise price of outstanding options or stock appreciation rights or cancel underwater options or stock appreciation rights in exchange for cash or another award without shareholder approval.
No Permitted Hedging, Short Sales or Derivative Transactions in Company Stock – We prohibit all insiders (e.g., non-employee directors, executive officers and other identified employees) from engaging in hedging transactions in the Company’s securities.
2022 Advisory Vote on Executive Compensation
At our 2022 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, less than a majority of the votes cast supported the executive compensation of our NEOs. The Company and the Compensation Committee considered this voting result in assessing whether there was a need for further modification or enhancement of our executive compensation program and related governance policies. While the Company and the Compensation Committee generally believe that our existing executive compensation program properly encourages and rewards the achievement of financial results that promote long-term shareholder value creation, we also believe the significant steps we have taken over the past several years have been responsive to many of the concerns regarding executive compensation that have been expressed by our shareholders. Further details are discussed below.
Shareholder Communication Program
Since 2012, we have conducted an active and ongoing shareholder communication program to maintain an open dialogue with our institutional shareholders to understand their views and concerns regarding our executive compensation program. Our shareholder communication program is also intended to educate our shareholders regarding the Company’s unique evolution,
21


history and position in its industry, and the relative lack of comparability between Tutor Perini and other public companies in terms of its size, industry focus and operations. Our shareholder communication program has included productive discussions regarding certain policy changes the Company has implemented in response to shareholder concerns.
Topics discussed with shareholders in the past several years have included the level of CEO compensation, our compensation disclosures, equity award vesting periods, performance-based vesting metrics and criteria, board and committee composition, share pledging, voting standards for director elections, talent management and succession planning. The participants of our shareholder communication team have included our Chief Financial Officer, our Vice President of Investor Relations and, occasionally, the Chair of our Compensation Committee. We intend to continue our shareholder communication program in the future to facilitate shareholder discussions regarding the Company’s compensation philosophy and program.
Actions Taken Based on Shareholder and Proxy Advisor Feedback
The following table summarizes various concerns that have been expressed by shareholders over the past several years and how we have addressed those concerns:
ConcernHow We Have Been Responsive
1.Level of total CEO compensation
Our proxy statements include disclosures regarding Mr. Tutor’s significant value to the Company, the Company’s historical private company heritage and the key differences between Mr. Tutor and other CEOs in our industry (see section entitled “Unique Factors Play into our Executive Compensation Decisions and Practices”) to help explain his level of compensation. Based on Mr. Tutor’s performance and value to the Company, the Compensation Committee believes that Mr. Tutor’s total compensation and compensation mix are appropriate and competitive with market practice.
A significant portion of Mr. Tutor’s compensation is tied to Company performance. From 2020 through 2022, Mr. Tutor forfeited a total of approximately $5.6 million of unearned bonus and equity incentives (see section entitled “Forfeitures of Unearned Performance-Based Awards”). In addition, Mr. Tutor’s total aggregate realized compensation for the last three years (see section entitled “Total Realized Compensation”) was $17.0 million less than his total aggregate compensation as required to be reported in the proxy on the Summary Compensation Table.

2. Previous inclusion of private companies and U.S. subsidiaries of foreign parents in peer groupThe Company eliminated the inclusion of private companies and U.S. subsidiaries of foreign parents in our compensation peer groups. The Company’s peer groups only include publicly traded companies within the engineering and construction industry.
3. Lack of diversity in short-term incentive compensation performance metricsThe Company increased the number and type of performance metrics used in the annual incentive compensation program. The Compensation Committee has tied payouts under the annual incentive compensation program to: (i) operating cash flow; (ii) pre-tax income; (iii) safety; and (iv) individual performance. The operating cash flow metric, in particular, has had a positive incentivizing effect that has helped the Company achieve strong operating cash flow results that exceeded budgeted consolidated net income in four of the six years since this metric was implemented (in 2017, 2019, 2020 and 2022), and record operating cash flow in 2017, 2020 and 2022.

To further emphasize the importance of operating cash flow as a key catalyst for significantly improved shareholder value, for 2022, the Compensation Committee approved weighting operating cash flow at 50% (up from 30%) and pre-tax income at 30% (down from 50%) (with safety and individual performance unchanged at a 10% weighting each).
22


ConcernHow We Have Been Responsive
4.Lack of relative metrics in long‑term incentive compensation programThe Company added a relative performance metric to performance-based long-term incentive awards. All performance-based long-term incentive awards granted from 2017 to 2020 included a relative total shareholder return (“TSR”) performance metric, and at least half of the performance-based awards in 2021 and 2022 included a relative TSR performance metric (excluding performance-based long-term incentive awards granted to Mr. Frost in November 2022 tailored specifically to his new role with the Company during which he is no longer serving as an executive officer).
5.Short (one-year) performance periods for most long-term incentive compensation awards
The Company eliminated the use of one-year performance periods for long-term incentive compensation awards, except in limited circumstances that are subject to approval by the Compensation Committee.
6. Need for a minimum vesting period for equity awardsThe Company has implemented an Incentive Compensation Plan that requires vesting periods of greater than one year for performance-based equity awards and at least three years for time‑based restricted stock and RSU awards for NEOs that applies to 95% of shares reserved under the plan.
7.Share pledgingThe Company has a policy that limits any share pledging by NEOs and non-management directors to no more than 30% of the shares owned by the pledgor. Mr. Frost currently has 94,500 shares pledged as collateral for a loan, which is in compliance with the 30% policy limit. Aside from Mr. Frost, no other NEO or director currently has any pledged shares.
ESTABLISHING EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
Compensation Philosophy and Objectives
Our executive compensation program is built upon the philosophy of “pay-for-performance” and is intended to:

Link executive compensation to the execution of our business strategy. The Company’s executive compensation program incentivizes and rewards progress toward the achievement of strategic business goals, including growing backlog and revenue, profitable project execution, and generating strong operating cash from ongoing and future projects and the successful resolution of claims and unapproved change orders. The Company already has more than $3 billion of significant new awards pending in 2023, as well as a substantial volume of large prospective project opportunities that are expected to be bid and awarded over the next two years, which is expected to result in significant backlog growth and increased earnings in 2023. In addition, the Company generated record operating cash in 2022 and expects continued strong cash generation in 2023 and beyond. With continued strong execution on projects in backlog and improved financial performance, key employees can earn higher performance-based incentive compensation payouts that could be further enhanced in some cases if the Company’s market valuation also improves.
Provide compensation that is highly competitive. The Company’s executive compensation program provides a highly competitive pay package to attract and retain the most qualified executive talent with the ability to secure, manage and successfully execute profitable projects. Generally, for each NEO, we set total target compensation (i.e., the sum of base salary, target annual incentive compensation and target long-term incentive compensation) that is in or near the upper quartile relative to our compensation peer group. In addition, we may set an NEO’s total target compensation at the top end of our compensation peer group to appropriately reflect an NEO’s extraordinary performance and value to the Company.

There is a strong need to provide highly competitive pay packages for top executives, as competition remains fierce for such talent. The Company and its industry remain at a critical point for attracting and retaining top executives. There is substantial pent-up demand following decades of underinvestment in infrastructure, and given the expected further increase in demand brought about by the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law enacted in 2021, we anticipate an extraordinary period of industry growth and increase in talent need driven by large, complex civil projects over the next decade. Therefore, it is critically important that we maintain an executive compensation program that is competitively attractive and rewarding to our key executives and prospective new executives.
23


Link a significant portion of pay to performance-based outcomes. The Company’s executive compensation program links a significant portion of each NEO’s compensation to performance-based outcomes. The Compensation Committee believes that compensation paid to executives should be closely aligned with the performance of the Company relative to pre-determined performance targets. As a result, our executive compensation program rewards executives when performance results meet or exceed pre-determined targets. As detailed below in the section entitled “Elements of Compensation,” the majority of the aggregate total target compensation of our NEOs for 2022 was performance-based, or at risk, and approximately 61% of our Chief Executive Officer’s 2022 total target compensation was performance-based.
Align the interests of NEOs with those of our shareholders. The Company’s executive compensation program aligns the interests of our NEOs with those of our shareholders. We achieve this alignment through several means, including (i) granting long-term equity-based compensation that fluctuates in value with share price appreciation and depreciation, (ii) requiring our NEOs to maintain a meaningful level of stock ownership and (iii) requiring our NEOs to retain beneficial ownership of at least 75% of net shares acquired under their equity awards until they are no longer with the Company. 
The Compensation Committee reviews the Company's compensation philosophy and objectives each year to determine if revisions are necessary in light of market conditions, the Company's strategic goals or other relevant factors. As detailed earlier in this CD&A, the Compensation Committee has made significant improvements to our executive compensation program over the last several years in response to shareholder feedback and the Company has also worked with the Board to effect certain governance improvements.

Pay Mix
We do not target a specific mix of pay for our NEOs. We set base salary, annual incentive and long-term incentive compensation opportunities, and target total compensation annually in light of our evaluation of competitive market factors. Concurrent with that process, we review pay levels for peer company executives, and each executive officer’s performance and experience. This process provides guidelines for establishing an appropriate mix of short-term versus long-term incentive compensation for our executives. For 2022, all of our NEOs’ short-term incentive compensation was performance-based, and more than half of our aggregate long-term incentive compensation to our NEOs in 2022, as well as over the past five years, has been performance-based. The significant percentage of total pay mix that is focused on performance-based compensation helps to align the interests of our executive officers with those of our shareholders.
Unique Factors Play into our Executive Compensation Decisions and Practices
Since the 2008 merger of Tutor-Saliba and Perini, which created Tutor Perini, our CEO, Mr. Tutor, has been a key driving force—both strategically and operationally—behind the Company’s evolution into a strong, vertically integrated and broader geographic player in the market. Mr. Tutor led the transformation of the Company from a firm primarily involved in lower-margin building work to one that today boasts a broad nationwide footprint with more than half of its backlog comprised of higher-margin civil projects.
Tutor Perini is a construction services company that competes with many other public and private companies for projects and for executive talent. Our closest competitors for projects are primarily large privately held firms or U.S. subsidiaries of foreign parent firms, whose focus and revenues stem largely from construction services and less from design and engineering services. In contrast, the revenues of many of the larger publicly traded companies with which we sometimes compete are primarily derived from consulting, design, architecture and engineering services, rather than construction services.

Amid strong public support for infrastructure spending, many state and local jurisdictions, as well as the federal government, have enacted significant funding programs aimed at addressing long-term infrastructure needs. The largest of these funding programs is the $1.2 trillion Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, of which funding allocations have already commenced and are expected to increase over the next several years. As a result, despite negative impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic that caused delays in various project bids and awards, we are now seeing an increased level of bidding activity in the near future for large civil projects and an even greater level of demand for our services over the next several years. Consequently, we believe that the significant volume of higher-margin civil projects, both in our current backlog and in prospective projects yet to be bid and awarded to us, will drive strong earnings, profit margins and cash flows over the coming years.
The Company’s unique history (in particular the private company legacy of Tutor-Saliba, a heavy civil and building construction company that Mr. Tutor owned, operated and grew over several decades) and evolution since the merger have had
24


a substantial impact on the Company’s executive compensation practices. Mr. Tutor’s value to the Company is significant and his level of compensation reflects, in part, his high retention value, which is particularly important today given the current environment of strong support for infrastructure spending and expected additional large civil project opportunities.
Mr. Tutor has a high degree of direct involvement in strategic planning and decisions, and an in-depth knowledge and involvement in many operational activities, from project selection and bid preparation to day-to-day customer relationship management and oversight of many of the Company’s largest, most complex projects. He also plays an instrumental role in navigating and negotiating the resolution of litigation and other disputes. Mr. Tutor’s level of direct involvement in all of these functions is unique among CEOs in our industry. All of the above factors were considered by the Compensation Committee in its determination as to the appropriateness of Mr. Tutor’s compensation.
Our Board and executive management have found through succession planning activities that overall executive compensation levels at privately held competitors tend to be higher when compared to compensation levels at our publicly traded peers. The Board believes Mr. Tutor’s compensation is comparable to the compensation of CEOs at non-public industry peers and knows that it is significantly lower than his compensation under the Company’s predecessor, Tutor-Saliba. 
Use of Peer Groups 
The Compensation Committee annually establishes and approves a compensation benchmarking peer group and a relative TSR peer group, each of which are described below.

Compensation Benchmarking Peer Group. Each year, the Compensation Committee assesses the competitiveness of each NEO’s total target compensation and each component of compensation (i.e., base salary, annual incentive compensation and long-term incentive compensation) against a peer group of companies. For 2022 benchmarking, the Compensation Committee selected peer group companies based on the following criteria: industry, revenue and market capitalization. Based on this selection criteria, the Compensation Committee approved the peer group composed of the following companies (“2022 Compensation Benchmarking Peer Group”):

Relative TSR Peer Group. In 2022, the Company granted our CEO performance-based equity awards that are earned and paid based on the Company’s TSR relative to a peer group of companies. For this purpose, the Compensation Committee selected peer group companies based on the following criteria: industry, revenue and market capitalization. Based on this selection criteria, the Compensation Committee approved the peer group composed of the following companies (“2022 Relative TSR Peer Group”):
25


2022 Relative TSR Peer Group
AECOMJacobs Solutions, Inc.
(formerly Jacobs Engineering Group, Inc.)
Arcosa, Inc. MasTec, Inc.
Comfort Systems USA, Inc. Matrix Service Company
Dycom Industries, Inc.MYR Group, Inc.
EMCOR Group, Inc. Quanta Services, Inc.
Fluor CorporationValmont Industries, Inc.
Granite Construction, Inc.

The Compensation Committee believes that these 2022 peer groups represent industry-focused groups of companies with which Tutor Perini competes for projects and executive talent. Furthermore, the Compensation Committee believes that these peer groups provide a better representation of the competition that influences the Company’s compensation decisions, as compared to other peer groups selected and used by proxy advisory firms that consider peer companies across a wider spectrum of industries.

In addition to compensation market data derived from the 2022 Compensation Benchmarking Peer Group, the Compensation Committee considered other factors when evaluating NEO compensation, including individual and corporate performance, and the inherent value to the Company that each NEO brings in performing his/her roles and responsibilities.

Elements of Compensation
The primary elements of compensation provided to each NEO are base salary, annual incentive compensation and long-term incentives, each of which is discussed below.
Base Salary
Base salary is a fixed component of our NEOs’ total target compensation. We provide base salaries that are highly competitive to retain our NEOs and to compensate them for their service to the Company. The Compensation Committee sets base salary levels based on a number of considerations including market data derived from the Compensation Benchmarking Peer Group, individual and corporate performance, and the inherent value to the Company of each NEO’s roles and responsibilities.

In connection with Mr. Smithson’s appointment as Executive Vice President, Civil Group effective September 30, 2022, the Compensation Committee approved a base salary increase from $800,000 to $900,000 effective November 1, 2022. Mr. Ariqat also received an increase to his base salary from $500,000 to $700,000 effective September 1, 2022 in connection with his promotion to Executive Vice President, Building and Specialty Contractors Groups. None of our other NEOs received a base salary increase during 2022.
Annual Incentive Compensation
The Compensation Committee believes that providing meaningful performance-based cash compensation provides executives with an incentive to achieve the Company’s strategic goals. To provide appropriate incentives to our current NEOs, generally 40% to 65% of their target annual cash compensation (base salary and target annual incentive compensation) is comprised of an annual incentive opportunity that is paid only if the Company achieves pre-established performance goals set by the Compensation Committee.

2022 Performance Metrics
For the 2022 annual incentive compensation program, the Compensation Committee approved the following four performance metrics (with respective weightings indicated): operating cash flow (50%); pre-tax income (30%); safety (10%); and individual performance (10%). These metrics were chosen because:
operating cash flow is a critical financial metric to the Company and its shareholders and consistent, strong cash generation can significantly enhance the Company’s share-price valuation;

26


pre-tax income is tracked closely at the project level and is useful for measuring profitability across the Company’s projects and business units;
implementation of a safety metric is aligned with the Company’s goal to promote workplace safety and reduce insurance-related costs; and
an individual performance metric provides the Compensation Committee with latitude to appropriately reward each NEO based on their specific contributions to the Company’s operating and strategic performance.
Overall, the Company and the Compensation Committee believe that a focus on maximizing these metrics promotes shareholder value creation over the long term and helps us achieve our business plan objectives. 

2022 Annual Incentive Target Opportunity and Payout Range

Mr. Tutor’s employment agreement provides for an annual cash bonus target of 175% of base salary for the remainder of his employment as CEO through 2024, with annual decreases to 135% (for 2025) and 100% (for 2026) during his employment as Executive Chairman. Any earned bonuses are payable only if performance criteria to be established by the Compensation Committee, with the approval of the independent members of the Board, are met.
For 2022, the Compensation Committee established a target annual incentive opportunity for each NEO, stated as a percentage of each NEO’s base salary. The annual incentive for each metric was only payable to the extent the Company achieved threshold performance goals established by the Compensation Committee at the beginning of the performance period.
The following table presents the 2022 threshold, target and maximum performance goals for each performance metric.

(2)Individual performance is a discretionary metric that considered factors such as the NEO’s contribution to overall Company performance, cultural and operational improvements, and talent development and succession planning. 
The following table presents the 2022 threshold, target and maximum incentive compensation opportunities and the payouts associated with each level of achievement. Mr. Smithson joined the Company on May 23, 2021, and pursuant to the terms of his employment agreement, received a guaranteed annual bonus payment covering the period through May 23, 2022 and, therefore, was not eligible for incentive compensation in 2021. He was eligible to participate in the 2022 annual incentive program, with a pro-rated bonus opportunity for the period from May 23, 2022 through December 31, 2022. Mr. Ariqat, who was appointed as an executive officer effective on September 30, 2022, received a guaranteed annual bonus payment covering the twelve-month period from September 1, 2022 through September 1, 2023 and, therefore, was not eligible for an annual incentive compensation payout in 2022 and is not included in the below table.

Long-Term Incentives
Awards of long-term incentives have played a significant role in our executive compensation program. Historically, the Compensation Committee has granted periodic equity awards to certain key executives based upon the Company’s strategic goals, the executive’s performance and retention considerations.
Equity-based awards granted in 2022 included time-based RSUs, cash-settled performance stock units (“CPSUs”) and deferred cash awards (“DCAs”). RSUs automatically convert to shares of the Company’s common stock on a one-for-one basis upon vesting. CPSUs vest upon satisfaction of market or performance conditions and are settled in cash, based on the value of the Company’s common stock on the vesting date. DCAs are time-based awards paid in cash based on the value of the Company’s common stock on the vesting date. In the past, the Company has also granted stock options which give the holder the right to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock subsequent to the vesting date at a defined exercise price, which must equal or exceed the fair value of the Company’s common stock on the award date.
2022 Time-Based Equity Awards Granted
In 2022, the Compensation Committee approved the grants of time-based RSUs and DCAs as listed in the below table. The time-based equity awards will vest as described below subject to continued employment through the vesting date.

2022 Performance-Based Equity Awards Granted

In 2022, the Compensation Committee approved the grants of performance-based CPSUs as listed in the below table. Mr. Tutor received CPSUs that vest based on the Company’s relative TSR over a three-year performance period as compared to the Company’s 2022 Relative TSR Peer Group, as well as CPSUs that vest based on the year-over-year growth in the Company’s pre-tax income averaged over the three-year performance period. The average annual growth in pre-tax income is measured from the Company’s actual 2021 pre-tax income of $159.8 million. Mr. Frost also received CPSUs which vest based on the satisfaction of performance criteria related to the settlement and resolution of certain project disputes. Mr. Smalley, Mr. Ariqat, Ms. Hallgren and Mr. Smithson did not receive any performance-based equity awards during 2022.

Perquisites
We provide certain perquisites to our executives because of the demand on time and travel, as well as productivity considerations, required in their leadership and management of multiple business units across dispersed geographic locations. The perquisites afforded to our NEOs include vehicle usage and allowances, insurance policy coverage, relocation expense reimbursement and relocation-related benefits. The Company also pays annual insurance premiums for Mr. Tutor’s life insurance policy, which includes coverage through April 2031. Additionally, Mr. Tutor and Mr. Frost are allowed limited personal use of Company aircraft, per the terms of their employment agreements.
New Hire Awards
Pursuant to the terms of his employment agreement, Mr. Smithson received a cash signing bonus of $250,000 on May 23, 2022, the first anniversary of his employment date. Mr. Smithson was also provided a guaranteed bonus of $600,000 for his first twelve months of employment, for which the pro-rata portion of $364,932 relating to 2021 was paid in March 2022. The remaining balance of $235,068 was paid in March 2023. Mr. Smithson also received a deferred cash bonus payment of $200,000 on May 23, 2022, the first anniversary of his employment date. He will also receive an additional deferred cash bonus of $200,000 on each of the second and third anniversaries of his employment date (for a total potential deferred cash bonus of $600,000), contingent upon his continued employment with the Company through each applicable anniversary date.

Promotion and Performance Bonus Awards
Mr. Ariqat, who was appointed as Executive Vice President of the Building and Specialty Contractor Groups effective September 30, 2022, received certain bonuses in 2022 related to his previous position with the Company covering the period from January 1, 2022 through August 31, 2022. These included $249,519 for the pro-rata portion of his annual performance bonus and a $500,000 special bonus for exemplary project management. Pursuant to his employment agreement entered into in connection with his appointment as Executive Vice President of the Building and Specialty Contractor Groups and as discussed above, Mr. Ariqat received a guaranteed bonus of $700,000 for the twelve-month period starting September 1, 2022, for which the pro-rata portion of $233,333 relating to 2022 was paid in March 2023. The remaining balance of $466,667 will be paid on September 1, 2023. Mr. Ariqat will also receive $300,000 of annual incentive compensation, which will vest in equal installments on April 1, 2023, 2024 and 2025, contingent upon his continued employment with the Company through each applicable vesting date.
Risk Assessment

Each year, management and the Compensation Committee review our employee compensation policies, including the annual incentive compensation we provide to our NEOs in relation to market data for our peer group, including evaluating the mix of compensation elements, performance metrics and targets, and risk management practices. Based on this review, the Company and the Compensation Committee concluded that our compensation programs are designed to appropriately align compensation with our business strategy and do not encourage behavior that could create material adverse risks to the Company. The review identified several risk mitigating factors, such as capped incentive payouts, clawback provisions and independent Compensation Committee oversight of compensation plans. Additionally, the review identified a clearly articulated philosophy, appropriately identified peer groups, use of competitive market data, and an effective use of cash and strategic equity grants that all contribute to a balanced pay program.
Role of the Compensation Committee and Management in Setting NEO Compensation
To execute the executive compensation strategy, the Compensation Committee works with management and Meridian to determine compensation for the NEOs. The Compensation Committee believes that the CEO is best positioned to evaluate the performance of our other NEOs. The CEO reviews performance of the executive officers and, based on his assessment, makes recommendations to the Compensation Committee for consideration and approval of their base salary levels and the metrics and targets for both annual incentive compensation and long-term incentive equity awards (if any).
The Compensation Committee also reviews the CEO’s performance and, based on its assessment of his performance, makes recommendations regarding CEO compensation to the independent directors of the Board for approval. Additionally, the Compensation Committee reviews available competitive external market data. As part of this process, the Compensation Committee also receives regular independent advice and recommendations on executive compensation matters from Meridian.

The Compensation Committee, at its regularly scheduled March meeting, reviews and approves the annual incentive compensation performance targets, as well as our long-term equity award performance targets for any awards granted at that time to executive officers. The Compensation Committee, also at this time, reviews performance against the plan provisions and associated expense implications of the annual incentive compensation amounts earned for the previous year, retaining discretion as to the final incentive compensation paid for all executive officers, other than the CEO. For the CEO, the Compensation Committee recommends, and the independent members of the Board subsequently approve, his incentive compensation payout. The Compensation Committee may approve cash incentive awards and equity awards for executive officers at other times to reflect promotions, new hires or other special circumstances.
Anti-Hedging Policy
Under our Insider Trading Policy, no insider may sell any securities of the Company that are not owned by such individual at the time of the sale. Furthermore, no insider may buy, sell, or enter into puts, calls, zero-cost dollars, forward sales contracts, other derivative securities, or other hedging or monetization transactions of the Company at any time. Executive officers, non-management directors and certain key employees are included as insiders under this policy. The Company does not maintain a policy that broadly prohibits all employees from engaging in hedging transactions.
30


FORFEITURES OF UNEARNED PERFORMANCE-BASED AWARDS
The Company’s pay-for performance philosophy is reflected in our annual and long-term incentive programs under which payout levels are directly aligned with achieved performance against predetermined metrics.

For performance years 2021 and 2022, our annual incentive program paid our NEOs less than their respective target payout amounts because achieved performance in those years was below target performance goals set for certain annual performance metrics.

For the performance cycles ending in 2020, 2021 and 2022, respectively, Mr. Tutor, Mr. Smalley and Mr. Frost each forfeited a portion of their long-term performance-based equity incentive compensation because the Company achieved performance in those years that was below applicable target performance goals. Despite the later forfeiture of performance-based equity incentive awards, these awards are still reported in the Company’s Summary Compensation Table (“SCT”) in the year of grant at their grant date fair value. Mr. Tutor did not receive any equity award with a performance-cycle ending in 2022, Mr. Frost did not receive any equity award with a performance-cycle ending in 2020 or 2022 and Ms. Hallgren did not receive any equity award with a performance-cycle ending in 2020, 2021 or 2022.

The table below summarizes the dollar value of target annual incentive awards and target long-term performance-based equity incentive compensation that has been forfeited over the past three years. Mr. Smithson joined the Company on May 23, 2021 and did not have any performance-based awards that vested prior to 2022. Mr. Ariqat is also not shown in the table below as he became an executive officer of the Company on September 30, 2022, and did not have any performance-based awards that vested during or prior to 2022.

CEO TOTAL REALIZED COMPENSATION COMPARED TO PROXY-REQUIRED DISCLOSURES
Most of our NEOs’ total realized compensation over the past three years (see section entitled Total Realized Compensation for a description of the elements included in realized compensation) was significantly lower than their reported compensation in the SCT. For 2022, Mr. Tutor’s total realized compensation was $8.9 million less than his total compensation reported in the SCT. This was primarily due to timing differences (grant dates versus payout dates) associated with certain equity awards.

Mr. Tutor’s aggregate total realized compensation from 2020 through 2022 was $17.0 million less than the aggregate total compensation reported in the SCT for the same three-year period. This was primarily due to forfeitures of certain unearned equity awards and timing differences (grant dates versus payout dates) associated with certain equity awards. The substantial amount of unrealized compensation further reinforces the notion that our executive compensation is aligned with performance relative to high expectations.

The following charts compare Mr. Tutor’s total realized compensation and total compensation reported in the SCT for 2022, as well as on an aggregate basis for the period from 2020 to 2022.

The fair value amounts are calculated in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Codification 718, Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”). The basis for the grant date fair value calculations and assumptions used can be found in Note 1(m) and Note 10 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 15, 2023. For the performance-based awards granted in 2022, the grant date fair values assuming the highest level of performance is achieved for all performance metrics would be $7,481,333 for Mr. Tutor and $699,000 for Mr. Frost.
(4)The amounts in column (f) represent the aggregate grant date fair value of time-based and performance-based stock options granted in each year. The fair value of these awards is calculated in accordance with ASC 718. The basis for the grant date fair value calculations and assumptions used can be found in Note 1(m) and Note 10 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 15, 2023. The performance-based awards are included in the table at the maximum aggregate grant date fair value of each award and may ultimately not be earned at such level.

(1)The amounts in column (b) represent amounts contributed by the Company into 401(k) plan accounts. The Company matches 30% of employee contributions up to 10% of the employee’s annual salary, not to exceed $6,150 per employee in 2022.
(2)The amounts in column (c) represent life insurance premiums paid by the Company for benefits that are not available to all salaried employees.
(3)The amounts in column (d) represent the aggregate incremental cost to the Company for personal benefits provided to the NEOs. The total for Mr. Tutor includes $560,728 related to the personal use of the Company aircraft and $32,992 for vehicle usage. Mr. Tutor is entitled to 150 hours of flight time per calendar year for personal use of Tutor Perini’s aircraft, as originally negotiated during the merger with Tutor-Saliba and as provided by his employment agreement (with any unused balance being carried forward to subsequent years while employed). The total for Mr. Smalley relates to vehicle usage. The total for Mr. Frost includes $93,281 related to the personal use of the Company aircraft and the remainder was for vehicle usage. The total for Ms. Hallgren includes $27,821 related to vehicle usage. The totals for Mr. Smithson and Mr. Ariqat relate to vehicle usage. The incremental cost of personal use of corporate aircraft is calculated based on the variable operating costs to the Company of any personal flights. The applicable executive bears all personal tax liabilities for such personal flights.
(4)The amounts in column (e) represent the totals of columns (b) through (d).

Total Realized Compensation
The table below is not required by SEC rules or regulations, nor should it be considered as a substitute for the preceding SCT and related disclosures. However, we have included this table to provide an understanding of the total compensation realized by our NEOs over the last three years. The table below reports compensation that our NEOs actually received for each year presented as opposed to what they were awarded and could potentially receive. The following are some of the key differences between the two tables:
The table below does not include equity compensation that was awarded but was subsequently unearned and forfeited due to the failure to achieve performance targets. This is in contrast to the SCT, which includes equity compensation in the year awarded and does not reduce reported compensation for any unearned and forfeited equity awards. The Company believes that the table below better illustrates the impact of the Company’s pay-for-performance philosophy on equity awards when performance targets are not achieved.
For non-equity incentive plan compensation (i.e., annual incentive (bonus) compensation), the table below reports such incentives in the year the cash is actually received by the NEOs compared to the SCT, which reports these cash incentives in the year considered earned, even though the actual bonus payouts occur months later and in the following year.
The total compensation reported in the table below and in the SCT differ due to timing differences between when certain elements of compensation are presented in the SCT and when those elements are paid in cash or shares to our NEOs. For example, a share-based performance award measuring TSR over a three-year period would be reported in the SCT at 100% of its grant date fair value in the year granted, whereas the table below would report the award in the year shares were paid, based on achievement of the performance targets and stock price at time of settlement. Since the Company does not typically award equity on an annual basis for all NEOs, but less regularly, the Total Realized Compensation table reports equity awards in a way that more aptly applies the award to the periods paid rather than reporting the entire value of a multi-year award in a single year.

(1)The amounts in column (c) are the same amounts reported in column (c) of the SCT.
(2)The amounts in column (d) are the same amounts reported in column (d) of the SCT, except for certain bonuses paid to Mr. Ariqat and Mr. Smithson. Mr. Ariqat’s guaranteed bonus payment of $700,000 was not paid in 2022, and, thus, was not reported in the above schedule in 2022, whereas the SCT reports a pro-rata portion of this bonus of $233,333 in 2022. In addition, the pro-rata portion of Mr. Ariqat’s annual performance bonus of $249,519 relating to his previous position with the Company covering the period from January 1, 2022 through August 31, 2022 was not paid until 2023, and, thus, is not reported in the above schedule in 2022, whereas the SCT reports this bonus when earned in 2022. Lastly, Mr. Ariqat was paid bonuses totaling $756,106 in 2022 that related to 2021 performance, and, thus, are included in the above schedule in 2022 but excluded from the SCT as the amounts were earned in 2021. Mr. Smithson’s pro-rata share of his guaranteed
36


bonus of $235,068 relating to 2022 was not paid until 2023 and, thus, is not reported in the above schedule in 2022, whereas the SCT reports the pro-rata portion of this bonus in 2022.
(3)The amounts in column (e) represent the gross value (prior to taxes) realized from vesting RSUs in the applicable year based on the value of the Company’s stock on the date of vesting. The amounts for certain RSUs vesting in 2022 for Mr. Ariqat and Ms. Hallgren reflect guaranteed minimum payouts at $20 per unit per the terms of their applicable award agreements.
(4)The amounts in column (f) would represent the value realized from exercised stock options; no stock options were exercised during the periods presented.
(5)The amounts in column (g) represent the amounts paid to the respective NEO as annual incentives in the year the cash was actually received, which is the year following the performance period.
(6)The amounts in column (h) are the same amounts reported in column (i) of the SCT.
(7)The amounts in column (i) represent the total of columns (c) through (h).
(8)The amounts in column (j) represent the total compensation as reported in the SCT.
(9)The amounts in column (k) represent the difference between columns (i) and (j).

(1)The types of equity awards that were granted in 2022 are RSUs, CPSUs and DCAs. RSUs automatically convert to the Company’s common stock on a one-for-one basis upon vesting. CPSUs vest upon satisfaction of market or performance conditions and are settled in cash, based on the value of the Company’s common stock on the vesting date. DCAs are time-based awards paid in cash based on the value of the Company’s common stock on the vesting date.
(2)Columns (d), (e) and (f) present the potential performance-based annual incentive payouts achieved at threshold, target and maximum. Actual amounts earned for 2022 are reflected in the SCT.
(3)Columns (g), (h) and (i) present the range, if applicable, of estimated future payouts of performance-based equity awards.
(4)Columns (j) and (k) present the time-based equity awards.
(5)The amounts in column (l) represent the exercise price of the nonqualified stock options, which was the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the NYSE on the date of award.
(6)The amounts in column (m) represent the grant date fair value of RSUs, CPSUs and DCAs computed in accordance with ASC 718. Assumptions used in the calculation of these amounts can be found in Note 1(m) and Note 10 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 15, 2023.

Agreements and Arrangements with NEOs
The following is a summary of Mr. Tutor’s, Mr. Smalley’s, Mr. Ariqat’s, Mr. Frost’s and Mr. Smithson’s employment agreement provisions and the terms of Ms. Hallgren’s Separation Benefits Agreement.
Ronald N. Tutor Employment Agreement
On August 25, 2021 and effective as of June 1, 2021, the Company entered into an amended and restated employment agreement (the “Amended Agreement”) with Mr. Tutor. The Amended Agreement extended Mr. Tutor’s employment term
39


through December 31, 2026. Mr. Tutor will continue to serve as the Company’s Chairman of the Board and CEO through December 31, 2024, and as Executive Chairman of the Board from January 1, 2025 through December 31, 2026. The Amended Agreement also provides a transition bonus of $1.5 million payable to Mr. Tutor upon the Board's approval of a successor CEO, provided that Mr. Tutor has identified for Board consideration and the Board has approved such successor no later than June 1, 2024, and an additional $1.5 million payable one year following the commencement of the successor CEO’s term in office if the independent members of the Board determine that Mr. Tutor successfully mentored and trained the successor. Both transition bonuses are subject to Mr. Tutor’s continued employment with the Company through the applicable payment dates. In addition, Mr. Tutor has agreed that during the term of his employment with Tutor Perini and for two years after the end of his employment (unless his employment is terminated by Tutor Perini without cause or he terminates his employment for good reason (each as defined in the Amended Agreement)), he will not compete with Tutor Perini or solicit certain of its employees. Mr. Tutor has also agreed to be bound by customary restrictions on disclosure of confidential information. The severance benefits payable to Mr. Tutor pursuant to the employment agreement are described in the “Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control” section below.
Gary G. Smalley Employment Agreement

(1)The annual incentive compensation for 2022 performance would be due to Mr. Tutor at the time payment is made to all executives under Events D and E. No payment would be due under Events A, B or C. As of December 31, 2022, Mr. Tutor was not owed any unearned annual incentive. Subsequent to December 31, 2022, the Compensation Committee approved a $3,990,000 annual incentive compensation bonus for Mr. Tutor for 2022 performance and payment has since been made to him. This amount is shown as payable as of December 31, 2022 under Events D and E above. Should Events D or E occur during any calendar year, a pro-rata bonus would be due to Mr. Tutor at the time payment is made to all executives for the calendar year in which the event occurs.
(2)Benefits include vacation, life insurance and health insurance. Termination under all Events would result in payment for accrued vacation (30 days at December 31, 2022, valued at $219,231). Events B, C, D and E would require the continuation of life insurance benefits providing for the payment of $10.0 million in the event of Mr. Tutor’s death through the earlier of April 12, 2031 or his death (total remaining premiums estimated at $2,945,404 at December 31, 2022). Event D would require continuation of health insurance benefits for Mr. Tutor and his covered dependents for 24 months (estimated at $62,381 at December 31, 2022 based on then applicable Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act (“COBRA”) premiums), or payment of an after-tax amount with which Mr. Tutor could obtain comparable coverage. Event E would require continuation of health insurance benefits for Mr. Tutor and his covered dependents for 36 months (estimated at $93,571 at December 31, 2022 based on then applicable COBRA premiums), or payment of an after-tax amount with which Mr. Tutor could obtain comparable coverage.
(3)Mr. Tutor had 499,760 RSUs and 591,754 CPSUs (target performance assumed) outstanding at December 31, 2022. The table below represents the value of the outstanding RSUs and CPSUs and the intrinsic value of the unvested stock options quantified using the Company’s closing share price of $7.55 on December 30, 2022, the last trading day of the year, assuming the triggering events occurred on December 31, 2022. Under Events A, B and D, CPSUs are paid out at the end of the performance period based on actual performance. As of December 31, 2022, the likelihood of these CPSU awards vesting is considered remote as they are not projected to meet the performance criteria. As a result, no amounts relating to CPSUs are included in the table below for Events A, B or D. Under Event E, CPSUs are paid out at target performance and Mr. Tutor also receives a cash payment equal to the amount of his future scheduled annual RSU grants, for a total of $16 million at December 31, 2022. Mr. Tutor had no unvested stock options outstanding as of December 31, 2022.

CEO PAY RATIO DISCLOSURE
The SEC's rules for identifying the median-compensated employee and calculating the pay ratio based on that employee's annual total compensation allow companies to adopt a variety of methodologies, to apply certain exclusions and to make reasonable estimates and assumptions that reflect their employee populations and compensation practices. As a result, the pay ratio reported by other companies may not be comparable to the pay ratio reported below, as other companies have different employee populations and compensation practices and may utilize different methodologies, exclusions, estimates and assumptions in calculating their own pay ratio.
In order to identify the median-compensated employee, we identified our employee population as of December 31, 2022. We selected total compensation paid to our employees from January 1, 2022 through December 31, 2022 (per IRS Form W-2 data for U.S. employees, and total salary and wages earned for non-U.S. employees) as our consistently applied compensation measure. We ranked all employees (other than the CEO) based on this consistently applied compensation measure and identified our median-compensated employee.
The annual total compensation of the median-compensated employee was $53,459. The 2022 total compensation of Mr. Tutor, our CEO, as measured for reporting in the SCT, was $14,877,151. The ratio of the annual total compensation of our CEO to the annual total compensation of the median-compensated employee was 278 to 1.

(3)The cumulative TSR for the Company and the Company’s peer group is calculated, assuming a fixed investment of $100 on December 31, 2019 (which represents the last trading day before the earliest fiscal year as reported in the above table).
(4)The peer group used for this purpose is the Dow Jones U.S. Heavy Construction Index.

(5)The dollar amounts reported represent the amount of net income (loss) reflected in the Company’s audited financial statements for the applicable year.

(6)The most important financial performance measure used by the Company to link compensation actually paid to the NEOs for 2022 to Company performance (other than TSR, which is already included in the above pay versus performance table) is operating cash flow, as reported in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows as reported within its audited financial statements under the caption “Net Cash Provided by (Used in) Operating Activities” for each applicable year.

Financial Performance Measures

As described in greater detail in the section titled Compensation Discussion and Analysis, the Company’s executive compensation program reflects a variable pay-for-performance philosophy. The metrics that the Company uses for both our long-term and short-term incentive awards are selected based on an objective of incentivizing our NEOs to increase the value of our enterprise for our shareholders. The most important financial performance measures used by the Company to link executive compensation actually paid to the Company’s NEOs, for the most recently completed fiscal year, to the Company’s performance are as follows:

1.Relative TSR;
2.Operating cash flow;
3.Pre-tax income; and
4.Safety

Analysis of NEO Compensation Actually Paid vs. Cumulative TSR, Net Income (Loss) and Operating Cash Flow

As discussed further in the section titled Compensation Discussion and Analysis, the primary elements of compensation for NEOs include base salary, non-equity annual incentive compensation, and long-term equity-based incentives, which can include time-based and performance-based equity awards.

The following graphs show the relationship between the CAP to the CEO and the average CAP to other NEOs and each of the Company’s cumulative TSR, peer index cumulative TSR, net income (loss) and operating cash flow for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020.

DIRECTOR COMPENSATION
Our Compensation Committee recommends the level of compensation to be paid to our Board. Periodically, the Compensation Committee reviews the functions being performed by the Board and its committees, as well as board compensation paid by the Company’s publicly traded peer group companies, in order to determine whether director compensation is appropriate. The Company’s director compensation is slightly below the peer group median.
Fees for our non-management directors consist of an annual cash retainer fee of $80,000, payable in cash or common stock at each director’s option, plus an annual equity retainer in the amount of $150,000 payable in shares of common stock on the business day following the annual meeting of shareholders. Directors also receive $900 per Board meeting attended in person and $300 per Board meeting attended telephonically. Members of the Audit Committee receive $2,000 per committee meeting attended in person and $500 per committee meeting attended telephonically. The Audit Committee Chair receives an annual retainer of $20,000 and the Compensation Committee Chair receives an annual retainer of $10,000 for services on their respective committees. Members of the Compensation and Corporate Governance and Nominating Committees receive $900 per committee meeting attended in person and $300 per committee meeting attended telephonically. The Lead Independent Director also receives an additional annual retainer of $20,000 based on the increased responsibilities associated with this role. 

In addition to these fees, an ad hoc Dispute Resolution Advisory Committee was formed in 2019 to consult with management regarding settlement offers and strategies with respect to certain outstanding claims and disputes. The Board approved a $10,000 annual cash retainer for serving as the Chair of this committee and a $900 meeting fee for each meeting attended in person and a $300 meeting fee for attending telephonically. A Special Committee was also formed in 2019 to consider potential strategic transactions, and the Board approved a $25,000 monthly cash fee for serving as the Chair of this committee and a $15,000 monthly meeting fee for attending meetings for each other member of this committee. There were three meetings of the Dispute Resolution Advisory Committee in 2022. The Special Committee met during the first three months of 2022.
The table below summarizes the total compensation earned by each of the non-management directors serving in 2022.

Stock Ownership Guidelines for Non-Management Directors 
The Company’s non-management directors are subject to stock ownership guidelines which are intended to align their interests with those of our shareholders. Under the guidelines, our non-management directors must hold ownership of Tutor Perini stock at a multiple of five times the annual cash retainer. The minimum number of shares guideline is updated annually based on the current cash retainer ($80,000 as of December 31, 2022) and the 12-month trailing average Tutor Perini stock price. Shares owned directly or indirectly are counted toward the guidelines. Non-management directors have until their fifth anniversary of becoming a director to comply with the guidelines. All of our current non-management directors are in compliance with the stock ownership guidelines.
Director and Officer Indemnification
Our amended and restated articles of organization provide that no director shall be personally liable to us or to our shareholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability for any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to us or our shareholders, for acts or omissions not in good faith, for acts or omissions involving intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law or for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit. Our By-laws provide that our directors and officers will be indemnified against liabilities that arise from their service as directors and officers, subject to certain exceptions. We have obtained insurance that insures our directors and officers against certain losses and insures us against our obligations to indemnify our directors and officers.
