15. Share-Based Compensation

Omnibus Incentive Plan and Partnership Inducement Award Plan

On October 24, 2019, the Company adopted the BRP Group, Inc. Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Omnibus Plan”) and on November 27, 2020, the Company adopted the BRP Group, Inc. Partnership Inducement Award Plan (the “Inducement Plan” and collectively with the Omnibus Plan, the “Plans”) to motivate and reward Colleagues and certain other individuals to perform at the highest level and contribute significantly to the Company’s success, thereby furthering the best interests of BRP Group’s stockholders. The Plans permit the grant of both nonqualified and incentive stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock awards (“RSAs”), restricted stock unit awards (“RSUs”), other performance awards (including performance-based RSUs (“PSUs”) issued in connection with the Long-Term Incentive Plan (“LTIP”) for executives), cash-based awards and share-based awards to the Company’s directors, officers, Colleagues and, solely with respect to the Omnibus Plan, consultants. The aggregate value of all compensation paid to a non-employee director under the Omnibus Plan in any calendar year may not exceed $250,000 and awards granted under the Inducement Plan require a minimum vesting period ofone year.

The Plans are administered by the Compensation Committee, the members of which are independent members of the board of directors. The Compensation Committee assesses issuances under the Plans in the context of the Company's fully-diluted capital composition, which includes shares of Class A common stock and Class B common stock.

The total number of shares of Class A common stock authorized for issuance under the Omnibus Plan and Inducement Plan was 8,461,907 and 3,000,000, respectively, at December 31, 2023. Under the Omnibus Plan, the number of shares of Class A common stock reserved for issuance will increase on the first day of each fiscal year by the lesser of (i)2% of the aggregate shares of Class A and Class B common stock outstanding on the last day of the immediately preceding fiscal year and (ii) such number of shares as determined by the Company’s board of directors. In accordance therewith, the number of authorized shares of Class A common stock reserved for issuance under the Omnibus Plan increased by 2,331,128 shares effective January 1, 2024.

At December 31, 2023, there were 1,385,732 and 1,626,454 shares of Class A common stock available for grant under the Omnibus Plan and Inducement Plan, respectively. The Company issues new shares of Class A common stock upon the grant of RSAs and the vesting of PSUs. During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company made awards of RSAs, PSUs and fully-vested shares under the Plans to its non-employee directors, officers, Colleagues and consultants. Fully-vested shares issued to directors, officers and Colleagues during the year ended December 31, 2023 were vested upon issuance while RSAs issued to Colleagues and consultants generally either cliff vest after three tofour years or vest ratably over three tofive years. The vesting of RSAs and PSUs issued to the Company's executive officers is discussed below under Long-Term Incentive Plan.

The following table summarizes the activity for awards granted by the Company under the Plans:

The total fair value of shares that vested and settled under the Plans was $40.0 million, $21.4 million and $6.0 million for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Non-vested awards outstanding at December 31, 2023 include 596,272 PSUs expected to vest, which have an aggregate intrinsic value of $14.3 million and a weighted-average remaining contractual term of 1.6 years.

Share-based compensation is recognized ratably over the vesting period of the respective awards and includes expense related to issuances under the Plans, MIU Conversion LLC Units (defined below) and, prior to 2023, advisor incentive awards. Share-based compensation also includes the portion of annual bonuses that are payable in fully-vested shares of Class A common stock. The Company recognizes share-based compensation expense for the Plans net of actual forfeitures. The Company recorded share-based compensation expense of $56.2 million, $47.4 million and $19.2 million for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Shared-based compensation expense is included in commissions, employee compensation and benefits expense in the consolidated statements of comprehensive loss. The Company had $64.0 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested shares at December 31, 2023, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.0 years.

Long-Term Incentive Plan

During the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, the Compensation Committee awarded the Company’s executive officers incentive compensation awards under the LTIP consisting of (i) PSUs with an aggregate target grant date value of $7.6 million, $5.1 million and $3.1 million, respectively, and (ii) RSAs with an aggregate grant date value of $0.4 million, $1.5 million and $1.0 million, respectively. The incentive compensation awards granted during the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021 have an aggregate maximum value of $25.9 million, $14.2 million and $8.8 million, respectively.

As part of the adoption of the LTIP each year, the Compensation Committee approves the form of PSU award agreement (the “Form PSU Award Agreement”) under the Omnibus Plan in connection with the granting of PSUs to its executive officers. The Form PSU Award Agreement provides for the granting of PSUs, which generally vest in the quarter following the end of a performance period ofthree years. The number of PSUs, if any, that will actually be earned pursuant to a PSU award will depend on the level of performance achieved with respect to applicable performance goals during the applicable performance period. The RSAs vest in equal annual installments over five years.

Valuation Assumptions

The fair value of PSUs with market conditions was estimated on the grant date using a Monte Carlo analysis to model the value of the PSUs using the following assumptions. Expected volatility is based on an average of implied volatility on the valuation date and the one-year historical volatility of BRP Group and publicly-traded companies within a peer group and the Russell 3000 Index. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury rates in effect at the time of the grant. Expected term is based on the remaining measurement period of the awards at the grant date. The assumptions used in calculating the fair value of the PSUs with market conditions are set forth in the table below.

Management Incentive Units

Management Incentive Units (“MIUs”) were non-voting units issued to certain senior management prior to October 2019. In connection with the Company's initial public offering in October 2019, all remaining MIUs were converted to restricted LLC Units (and corresponding shares of Class B common stock) (“MIU Conversion LLC Units”) that contained identical vesting conditions to the original MIU issuances. As such, no MIUs remain issued and outstanding.

The non-vested MIU Conversion LLC Units vested according to time-based benchmarks through 2023. There were 429,747,450,744 and 467,237 MIU Conversion LLC Units that vested during the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
