NOTICE OF ANNUAL MEETING OF

SHAREHOLDERS AND PROXY STATEMENT
Letter to the Shareholders
JANUARY 19, 2022
Dear Fellow Shareholders,

The past year represented a period of significant growth for The Walt Disney Company on several fronts. Fiscal 2021 marked a year of
successful leadership transitions, the advancement of our environmental and social efforts, the reopening of additional parks and
experiences, and the continued execution of our direct-to-consumer (“DTC”) strategy. Having recently assumed the role as Chairman of the
Board after serving as independent Lead Director since 2018, I am excited to continue working closely with my fellow Board members, our
CEO Bob Chapek and our talented management team. We are proud of the dedication of the entire Disney team as we continue to navigate
the uncertainties of the COVID-19 pandemic this past year, and look forward to continuing to deliver shareholder value, storytelling and
creative experiences around the world.
Bob Iger stepped down from his role as Executive Chairman at the end of 2021. The impact Bob had during his time at the Company is
difficult to overstate. During his tenure as CEO, Bob initiated the Company’s DTC efforts; expanded our geographic presence including
opening our first theme park and resort in Mainland China; and furthered Disney’s rich history of storytelling through landmark acquisitions of
Pixar, Marvel, Lucasfilm and 21st Century Fox. Bob carried the same level of dedication into his role as Executive Chairman, where he
oversaw Disney’s creative endeavors, providing audiences with engaging stories and compelling characters. Alan Braverman, former
General Counsel and Secretary, Zenia Mucha, former Chief Communications Officer, and Jayne Parker, former Chief Human Resources
Officer, also retired during the past year. I want to thank each of these tremendous leaders for their years of continued service and
contributions to Disney, and for their role as valued mentors to so many colleagues.
Last year, we were excited to announce that Amy Chang and Calvin McDonald joined the Disney Board as independent directors. Both Amy
and Calvin bring a nuanced understanding of the power of combining technology and the consumer experience – Amy’s expertise includes
technology to understand consumer trends and demands, and Calvin has deep experience with brand innovation and connecting with
consumers across various digital channels. Their additional perspectives and experiences have already been valuable additions to the Board.
We will continue to compose the Board of Directors with appropriate skills and experiences to oversee our strategy and stay ahead of the
rapidly evolving media and entertainment landscape.
The Board is focused on the Company’s efforts to promote a long-term sustainable business and to maintain a workplace in which all
employees and cast members feel welcomed and supported. In 2020, the Company established measurable environmental goals, which we
aim to achieve by 2030, and enhanced our environmental, social and governance (“ESG”) reporting, including alignment with relevant
Sustainability Accounting Standards Board guidelines. Beginning with our 2021 corporate social responsibility report, which will be
published in 2022, we will share our progress against the 2030 goals. As part of our 2030 goals, the Company is committed to achieving
net zero emissions for our direct operations (Scopes 1 and 2) by 2030, and is actively working to define a science-based reduction goal for
our Scope 3 emissions footprint by the end of 2022.
In 2021, the Company launched the Reimagine Tomorrow Digital Hub, an outgrowth of the efforts of the Company’s CEO Diversity and
Inclusion Council and Creative Inclusion Council, supporting efforts for improved diversity, equity and inclusion at Disney, and amplifying
underrepresented voices. We also understand the importance of transparency of disclosure regarding the diversity of our workforce. In an
effort to support this, we published our demographic data on our website and our EEO-1 report reflecting calendar 2019 and 2020
demographic data.
Engaging with our shareholders and sharing direct feedback with the Board is an invaluable practice. We are pleased with the positive
support we’ve heard during engagements in 2021 regarding responsiveness to feedback on our executive compensation program and
progress we have made on our sustainability reporting, diversity and inclusion efforts and succession planning. We look forward to
continuing our dialogue with you, our shareholders, and incorporating your feedback into our discussions as we strive to grow Disney in a
responsible and inclusive way.
Sincerely,
SUSAN E. ARNOLD
Chairman of the Board
Letter to the Shareholders
JANUARY 19, 2022

Looking back over the past year, I am incredibly proud of the work our management team, our business leads and our broader
workforce delivered, executing our strategy and fulfilling our mission of entertaining, informing and inspiring people around the
globe. During a time when the world is navigating an ever-changing set of challenges presented by the COVID-19 pandemic, we
have continued to tell the world’s most original and enduring stories, connecting global audiences and guests to their favorite
characters in a way that only Disney can.
In October 2020, we announced the reorganization of our media and entertainment businesses in an effort to accelerate our DTC
strategy, which continues to be our top priority. We are extremely pleased with the success of our DTC services, which is a testament
to our talented content and distribution teams and their ability to adapt to meet consumer needs.
Our parks, experiences and products business, which has been the most extensively impacted by the pandemic, showed improvement
in fiscal 2021 driven by the reopening of our parks and resorts and investments in sophisticated technology and tools to expand our
services. We have put into action many new guest-centric services and in fiscal 2021 were able to introduce exciting attractions that
have been in development over the past several years. These developments, combined with the continued growth of our DTC offering,
will further provide our guests and consumers with streamlined access to new, immersive storytelling experiences. At the same time,
ESPN continues to lead the way with innovative programming that brings audiences the sports they love in personalized and
customized ways.
Our Board and senior management team are committed to operating Disney as a responsible corporate citizen. We are reducing the
environmental impact of our offerings and operations by implementing sustainable design features across our physical footprint,
working to transition to renewable and low carbon energy sources, investing in natural climate solutions and many more initiatives to
support a more sustainable world. We have also furthered our commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion through our Reimagine
Tomorrow endeavor. This past year, we established additional initiatives and programs to support an inclusive workplace for our
employees and communities for our guests, but know there is more work to be done. We look forward to updating you on our
progress in these areas.
I want to take a moment to acknowledge Bob Iger and his distinguished career at Disney. Bob has left an indelible mark on the
Company, and his contributions will last for generations to come. I am excited to continue working with Susan Arnold, now in her
new position as Chairman of the Board. Susan has been an extraordinary leader throughout her tenure on the Board, bringing deep
experience and adept judgment across an impressive range of topics that have helped support our business and drive significant
shareholder value.
Additionally, I am proud to welcome new members to our management team: Paul Richardson has joined us as Chief Human
Resources Officer, Geoff Morrell will assume the newly created position of Chief Corporate Affairs Officer (effective January 24,
2022), and Horacio Gutierrez will be joining us February 1, 2022 as General Counsel. I look forward to collaborating with each of
them as we strive to deliver unforgettable experiences and stories and drive long-term value for all Disney stakeholders. I also want to
thank Alan Braverman, Zenia Mucha and Jayne Parker for their dedicated service to The Walt Disney Company.
I am more excited for the future of Disney today than I have been at any point during my 28 years here at the Company. Our talented
management team’s steadfast commitment to the Company’s vision has allowed us to be a part of so many lives through the magic of
storytelling, and our robust pipeline of content, including new films and series from Disney, Pixar, Marvel, Star Wars and National
Geographic, lays the foundation for that to continue.
On behalf of the senior management team at Disney, we want to thank you for your continued support and commitment to the
Company. We are excited about the many opportunities ahead for our businesses and employees, and look forward to creating even
more magical experiences for our guests and consumers.
Sincerely,
ROBERT A. CHAPEK

fiscal 2021 compensation was 91% performance-based and equity: 9% base
salary, 33% target annual incentive, 29% stock options and 29% performance-
based restricted stock units (“PBUs”).
For fiscal 2022, the Compensation Committee determined to increase PBUs to 50% of the overall long-term incentive grant value for the named executive
officers other than the CEO and Executive Chairman, who already had 50% in the form of PBUs. This shift reflects a meaningful increase in at-risk
compensation, as evidenced by the actual results realized with respect to recent PBU grants. For example, annual grant PBUs vesting in the last four years have
resulted in below target payouts, 85%, 96%, 62% and 48%, for shares vesting in December 2018, 2019, 2020 and 2021, respectively. The 2017 extension
PBU grant for Mr. Iger had a payout of 69% and the fiscal 2020 return on invested capital (“ROIC”) test resulted in 0% payout for the first annual performance
period in respect of that award. The Committee believes this PBU structure strongly aligns pay and performance, which is underscored by the decision to further
increase the weighting of PBUs for other NEOs.

Fiscal 2021 Overview

Fiscal 2021 was a year of transition for the Company marked by leadership succession; a reorganization of our media and
entertainment businesses; and the ongoing recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic in both our media and entertainment and our
parks, experiences and products businesses. Despite the continuing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company made
meaningful progress on its long-term strategic initiatives and delivered strong shareholder value, all while supporting the health and
safety of its employees, customers and communities.
Business and Performance

The Company focused on continuing to execute its long-term strategy to drive future growth while also devoting substantial energy in
responding to the human and business impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. While the disruption to our businesses caused by the
COVID-19 pandemic continues to impact the Company’s operations, we have been resilient, as reflected in the Company’s strong
financial performance in fiscal 2021. On a reported basis:
• Revenue increased 3% to $67,418 million from $65,388 million in the prior year.
• Diluted Earnings Per Share (“EPS”) from continuing operations for the year was income of $1.11, compared to a loss of
$1.57 in the prior year.
• Net income from continuing operations attributable to Disney increased to income of $2,024 million, compared to a loss of
$2,832 million in the prior year.
• Income from continuing operations before income taxes increased to income of $2,561 million from a loss of $1,743 million
in the prior year.
• Income from continuing operations before income taxes is the comparable GAAP measure to total segment operating
income, which decreased 4% to $7,766 million from $8,108 million in the prior year.
The Compensation Committee has designed a compensation program that produces a strong pay and performance alignment. This
was evidenced by the payouts in fiscal 2020, which resulted in a significant reduction in executive pay in the face of challenging
Company performance due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. This was also evidenced in fiscal 2021, for which payouts
aligned with strong performance across many key financial, strategic, diversity and inclusion and other goals.
See Annex A for a discussion of how we define and calculate total segment operating income and a reconciliation of total segment
operating income to the most directly comparable GAAP measure, income from continuing operations before income taxes. See our
Annual Report on Form 10-K for more information on our fiscal 2021 performance.

PROXY SUMMARY
COVID-19 Response
Throughout these challenging times, the Company has continued to support its employees, customers and communities; responded to
the associated business impacts; and developed protocols both for determining whether our businesses could resume operations and
for responsible operations when they do resume. The key actions included:
• Enhanced health and safety measures for our customers and workforce, including vaccination requirements
• Enhanced health, wellness and family resources for our employees, including on-site vaccination stations
• Support for our communities with community giving, including in-kind and cash support
• Delivery of world-class content and experiences for our consumers through flexible and creative content distribution
approaches
• Enhanced Company Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (“DEI”) efforts through our Reimagine Tomorrow endeavor
Executive Leadership
In fiscal 2021, Mr. Chapek, as Chief Executive Officer, delivered strong performance given the unprecedented challenges resulting
from the COVID-19 pandemic and meaningful shareholder value, driven by exceptional execution of the Company’s key strategic
initiatives.
Since March 2020, Mr. Chapek has adeptly managed the significant disruption to the Company’s businesses resulting from the
COVID-19 pandemic and guided the Company’s new management team leading our direct-to-consumer (“DTC”) efforts. In fiscal
2021, under Mr. Chapek’s leadership, the Company made significant progress on its long-term strategic plan with the following
achievements:
• Reorganized media and entertainment businesses to align with Mr. Chapek’s strategic goals of accelerating the DTC
strategy and centralizing distribution and commercialization activities
• Increased subscribers at Disney+, Hulu and ESPN+
• Continued expansion of the Company’s DTC efforts internationally, launching DTC platforms in several key international
markets
• Took meaningful and innovative steps at our parks and experiences business while reopening our parks, including the
development of Disney Genie and new Magic Key offerings
In fiscal 2021, Mr. Iger successfully directed the Company’s creative endeavors, which are the cornerstone of the Company’s strategy
and fuel the continued growth and expansion of Disney+ and the Company’s other DTC platforms. This effort took on greater
complexity with production delays impacting content creation as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, a challenge Mr. Iger deftly
managed. Under Mr. Iger’s leadership, the Company made significant progress on its creative initiatives that are essential to the
success of the Company’s DTC and other distribution platforms. The Company created a pipeline across numerous franchises resulting
from close creative collaboration between Disney’s content creators and Mr. Iger, released compelling original content for Disney+
and the Company’s other DTC platforms and created content for traditional theatrical releases and linear networks. Mr. Iger also
nurtured a talented team of creative executives who will continue to lead these efforts under Mr. Chapek’s direction. As planned when
he was named Executive Chairman in February 2020, Mr. Iger’s tenure as Executive Chairman ended on December 31, 2021, at the
expiration of his employment agreement.
In fiscal 2021, our other NEOs also showed exceptional performance both in managing the Company in the face of new challenges
resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic and in driving transformation of our businesses, building long-term value.
PROXY SUMMARY

Board. Ms. Chang brings vast expertise in the tech industry as a veteran technology executive and Mr. McDonald has a wealth of
experience in scaling brand-name retailers through innovation and finding new ways to connect with consumers across various

directors expires at the 2022 Annual Meeting. For more information regarding these matters and our corporate governance, see the
section of this proxy statement titled “Corporate Governance and Board Matters.”
Board Oversight
In direct response to shareholder feedback, the Board has recently updated several aspects of its risk oversight. For more information
regarding these matters, see the section of this proxy statement titled “Corporate Governance and Board Matters—The Board’s Role
in Risk Oversight.” In particular, the current Chairman of the Board, Susan E. Arnold, is an independent Director. The Board has also
specifically delegated oversight of certain risks to its committees. The Governance and Nominating Committee oversees the
Company’s environmental, social and governance programs and reporting, including with respect to environmental and sustainability
policies and initiatives. The Compensation Committee oversees the Company’s workforce equity matters. The Audit Committee
oversees cybersecurity and data security risks and mitigation strategies. In addition, the Audit Committee reviews the Company’s
policies and practices with respect to risk assessment and risk management.
PROXY SUMMARY
Shareholder Engagement and Responsiveness

Below are overviews of the Company’s engagement process, feedback from investors and responsive Company actions.
Investor Engagement Process
During fiscal 2021, including following the 2021 Annual Meeting, members of management and the Board continued their strong
level of engagement with shareholders. Our Investor Relations team engaged regularly throughout the 2021 calendar year with
investors of all sizes from around the world. In addition to these regular conversations, our Investor Relations team also held two
formal rounds of engagement sessions, which included Board members, in the winter/spring and the fall with top shareholders to
hear and respond to feedback. The feedback gathered during these conversations helped inform the Board’s thinking, in particular,
about compensation as well as other environmental, social and governance (“ESG”) practices and disclosure. Through our
engagement conversations, we heard directly from many of our largest shareholders—including several that had previously expressed
concerns with quantum and structure of our executive compensation program—that they were pleased with the cumulative changes to
the executive compensation program over the years and supportive of the current structure of our program.
In calendar 2021, our Investor Relations team and/or the Board, including members of CONTACTED
the Compensation Committee, spoke with 15 of our top 20 shareholders, including 9
of the top 10 shareholders, and contacted approximately 85% of our largest 50
shareholders, seeking input on compensation and governance matters. Throughout the ~85%
year, we have reached out to a wide range of our shareholder base, representing over OF OUR LARGEST
46% of our total shares outstanding, to engage and collect feedback on these topics. 50 SHAREHOLDERS IN
Even since our 2021 Annual Meeting in March 2021, we have contacted CALENDAR 2021
approximately 70% of our largest 50 shareholders to offer engagement with our
management team (including Investor Relations) and Board.

• Through The Stories Matter Initiative, the Company reviewed over 6,000 titles from our global library to determine appropriate

leaders to address and provide a safe space for employees in response to current events.
• 500+ employees volunteered to serve as Belonging Advocates to instill greater inclusion in their work areas.
• Our parks and resorts introduced a new Inclusion Key as one of the guiding principles for cast members, to better create a culture
of belonging and demonstrate our deep commitment to making everyone who experiences Disney welcome. The Company also
updated the policies that guide how our cast members show up to work to remain relevant in today’s workplace and enable cast
members to better express their cultures and individuality at work.
• Our focus on disability inclusion has built acumen and inclusive practices across our businesses, including training workshops,

Asian American, Pacific Islander, Black and African American, Hispanic and Latin, Native American and Indigenous, LGBTQ+, People with
Disabilities, Veterans and Women. We also include grants to organizations where a percentage of their services reach underrepresented and
protected communities. If the organization spends a majority of their efforts on these communities, we count the entire grant and if the
organization does not spend a majority, we count a proration of the grant. For grants to these two types of organizations, we rely on their self-
reported percentages regarding communities served. On a sample basis, we validate the percentages that are reported.
PROXY SUMMARY
Commitment to Sustainability
The Company is committed to protecting the planet and delivering a positive environmental legacy for future generations as we
operate and grow our businesses. We are committed to enhancing our sustainability practices and holding ourselves accountable to
our environmental strategy and believe this aligns with our long-term strategy and commitment to being a responsible company. To
that end, we have developed measurable goals for 2030, grounded in science and an assessment of where the Company’s
operations have the most significant impact on the environment, as well as the areas where it can most effectively mitigate that
impact. Our 2030 goals include achieving net zero greenhouse gas emissions for our direct operations (Scopes 1 and 2), producing
or purchasing 100% zero carbon electricity for our direct operations and working to achieve zero waste to landfill at our wholly
owned and operated parks and resorts. We also announced our intention to define a science-based reduction goal for the
Company’s Scope 3 emissions footprint by the end of 2022. The complete set of our 2030 goals is available at our environmental
sustainability website. Progress towards our 2030 goals, including qualitative updates and select quantitative measures, will be
reported annually with Disney’s 2021 CSR report, which will be published in 2022.

Board Leadership
The current Chairman of the Board, Susan E. Arnold, is an independent Director. The Company’s
Corporate Governance Guidelines specify that the Chairman of the Board shall in the normal course be
an independent Director, unless the Board determines that, in light of the circumstances then present
when any such decision is made, a different structure would better serve the best interests of the
shareholders. The Corporate Governance Guidelines also provide that the Board will disclose in each
proxy statement the reasons for a different arrangement and appoint an independent Director as Lead
Director with duties and responsibilities detailed in the Corporate Governance Guidelines.
Susan E. Arnold
has been appointed
as independent
Chairman of the Board
Fiscal 2021
From March 2012 through December 2021, Mr. Iger served as Chairman of the Board. In making Mr. Iger Chairman of the Board,
the Board determined that doing so would promote a number of important objectives: it would add a substantial strategic perspective
to the Chairman position and put in place an effective plan for the future transition of leadership while at the same time providing
important continuity to Board leadership. In making these judgments, the Board took into account its evaluation of Mr. Iger’s
performance as Chief Executive Officer and President and the strategic vision and perspective he would bring to the position of
Chairman of the Board. The Board was uniformly of the view that Mr. Iger would provide excellent leadership of the Board in the
performance of its duties and that naming him as Chairman of the Board would serve the best interests of shareholders. Mr. Iger
served as Chairman of the Board and Executive Chairman through the end of the term of his employment agreement, December 31,
2021. Each year until the end of the term of Mr. Iger’s employment agreement, the independent members of the Board determined
whether to elect Mr. Iger as Chairman of the Board in accordance with his employment agreement. In doing so, the Board considered
whether Mr. Iger’s continuing to serve as both Chairman of the Board and Executive Chairman would be in the best interests of
shareholders. Based on the past demonstrated success of this structure, both in terms of the functioning of the Board and the growth of
the Company, and the continued benefits of retaining Mr. Iger’s strategic perspective in the position of Chairman of the Board
through the term of his employment agreement, the Board concluded that Mr. Iger’s continuing service as Chairman of the Board
remained in the best interests of shareholders.
At the time Mr. Iger became Chairman of the Board, the Board elected an independent Lead Director. The duties of the independent
Lead Director were expanded in connection with the appointment of Mr. Iger as Chairman of the Board, and were further expanded
in 2013 based on feedback from investors regarding Lead Director duties. Susan E. Arnold was elected independent Lead Director in
March 2018 and annually thereafter until the Lead Director role was no longer required in December 2021. The duties of the Lead
Director were as follows:
• preside at all meetings of the Board at which the Chairman is not present, including executive sessions of independent or
non-management Directors;
• call meetings of the independent or non-management Directors;
• serve as liaison between the Chairman and the independent and non-management Directors;
• advise as to the scope, quality, quantity and timeliness of information sent to the Board;
• in collaboration with the Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board, and with input from other members of the Board,
develop and have final authority to approve meeting agendas for the Board, including assurance that there is sufficient time for
discussion of all agenda items;
• organize and lead the Board’s annual evaluation of the Chief Executive Officer;
• be responsible for leading the Board’s annual self-assessment;
• be available for consultation and direct communication upon the reasonable request of major shareholders;
• advise Committee Chairs with respect to agendas and information needs relating to Committee meetings;
• provide advice with respect to the selection of Committee Chairs; and
• perform such other duties as the Board may from time to time delegate to assist the Board in the fulfillment of its responsibilities.
Fiscal 2022
Effective December 31, 2021, Susan Arnold was appointed Chairman of the Board. Ms. Arnold is an independent Director and has
a wealth of leadership experience and deep understanding of the Board from her experience as independent Lead Director of the
Board from 2018 to 2021 and serving as a Director of the Board since 2007. The Board no longer has a Lead Director, given that
the Chairman is now an independent Director. The duties of the Chairman are substantially similar to those of the independent Lead
Director.
Committees
The Board has four standing committees: Audit, Governance and Nominating, Compensation and Executive.
Audit Committee
Safra A. Catz (Chair) The functions of the Audit Committee are described below under the section titled “Audit-
Francis A. deSouza Related Matters—Audit Committee Report.” The Board memorialized the Committee’s oversight
Derica W. Rice of cybersecurity and data security risks in the Committee’s charter. The Audit Committee met 8
times during fiscal 2021. All of the members of the Audit Committee are independent within the
meaning of SEC regulations, the listing standards of the New York Stock Exchange and the
Company’s Corporate Governance Guidelines. The Board has determined that each of
Ms. Catz, Mr. deSouza and Mr. Rice is qualified as an audit committee financial expert within
the meaning of SEC regulations and that they have accounting and related financial
management expertise within the meaning of the listing standards of the New York Stock
Exchange and that Mr. Froman, who served on the Committee through January 10, 2022, is
financially literate within the meaning of the listing standards of the New York Stock Exchange.
The Board has determined that Mr. Rice’s simultaneous service on the audit committees of more
than three public companies will not impair his ability to effectively serve on the Audit
Committee.
Governance and Nominating Committee

Susan E. Arnold (Chair) The Governance and Nominating Committee is responsible for developing and implementing
Amy L. Chang policies and practices relating to corporate governance, including reviewing and monitoring
Michael B.G. Froman implementation of the Company’s Corporate Governance Guidelines. In addition, the
Maria Elena Lagomasino Committee assists the Board in developing criteria for open Board positions, reviews
background information on potential candidates and makes recommendations to the Board
regarding such candidates. The Committee also reviews and approves transactions between
the Company and Directors, executive officers, 5% or greater shareholders and their respective
affiliates under the Company’s Related Person Transaction Approval Policy, supervises the
Board’s annual review of Director independence and the Board’s annual self-evaluation, makes
recommendations to the Board with respect to compensation of non-executive members of the
Board, makes recommendations to the Board with respect to committee assignments, oversees
the Board’s director education practices and reviews the Company’s political contributions
activity and policy. In fiscal 2021, the Board delegated oversight of ESG matters to the
Committee. The Committee met 5 times during fiscal 2021. All of the members of the
Governance and Nominating Committee are independent within the meaning of the listing
standards of the New York Stock Exchange and the Company’s Corporate Governance
Guidelines. Mr. Froman joined the Committee during fiscal 2022.
Compensation Committee
Mary T. Barra The Compensation Committee is responsible for the review and approval of corporate goals
Maria Elena Lagomasino (Chair) and objectives relevant to the compensation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer,
Calvin R. McDonald evaluating the performance of the Chief Executive Officer and, either as a committee or
Mark G. Parker together with the other independent members of the Board, determining and approving the
compensation level for the Chief Executive Officer. The Committee is also responsible for
making recommendations to the Board regarding the compensation of other executive officers
and certain compensation plans, and the Board has delegated to the Committee the
responsibility for approving these arrangements. The Committee may delegate specific tasks to
subcommittees as it determines necessary or appropriate. In fiscal 2021, the Board delegated
oversight of workforce equity matters to the Committee. Additional information on the roles and
responsibilities of the Compensation Committee is provided under the heading “Compensation
Discussion and Analysis,” below. The Committee met 7 times in fiscal 2021. All of the members
of the Committee are independent within the meaning of SEC regulations, the listing standards
of the New York Stock Exchange and the Company’s Corporate Governance Guidelines.
Executive Committee
Susan E. Arnold (Chair) The Executive Committee serves primarily as a means for taking action requiring Board
Robert A. Chapek approval between regularly scheduled meetings of the Board. The Executive Committee is
authorized to act for the full Board on matters other than those specifically reserved by
Delaware law to the Board. In practice, the Committee rarely takes action and in fiscal 2021,
the Executive Committee held no meetings. In fiscal 2022, upon Mr. Iger’s resignation,
Mr. Chapek was appointed to the Committee.
The Board’s Role in Risk Oversight

As noted in the Company’s Corporate Governance Guidelines, the Board, acting directly or through committees, is responsible for
“assessing major risk factors relating to the Company and its performance” and “reviewing measures to address and mitigate such
risks.” In discharging this responsibility, the Board, either directly or through committees, assesses both (a) risks that relate to the key
economic and market assumptions that inform the Company’s business plans (including significant transactions) and growth
strategies, and (b) significant operational risks related to the conduct of the Company’s day-to-day operations.
Risks relating to the market and economic assumptions that inform the Company’s business plans and growth strategies are
specifically addressed with respect to each business unit in connection with the Board’s review of the Company’s long-range plan.
The Board also has the opportunity to address such risks at each Board meeting in connection with its regular review of significant
business and financial developments. The Board reviews risks arising out of specific significant transactions when these transactions
are presented to the Board for review or approval.
Significant operational risks that relate to ongoing business operations are the subject of regularly scheduled reports to either the full
Board or one of its committees. The Board acting through the Audit Committee reviews as appropriate whether these reports cover the
significant risks that the Company may then be facing.
Each of the Board’s committees addresses risks that fall within the committee’s areas of responsibility. The Audit Committee addresses
general risks as well as risks arising out of financial planning and reporting, internal controls and information technology. The Audit
Committee reserves time at each meeting for private sessions with the Chief Financial Officer, General Counsel, head of the internal
audit department and outside auditors. The Compensation Committee addresses risks arising out of the Company’s executive
compensation programs, as described in more detail in the section titled “Executive Compensation—Other Compensation
Information—Risk Management Considerations” and workplace equity. The Governance and Nominating Committee addresses risks
arising out of corporate governance, director compensation, investor engagement, political contributions and the Company’s ESG
programs. The Governance and Nominating Committee annually reviews domestic political contribution activity as well as the
procedures and controls related to political contributions. The operational risks periodically reviewed by committees are also
reviewed by the entire Board when a committee or the Board determines this is appropriate.
The Board and Audit Committee receive reports on information technology risks, including cybersecurity and data security risks.
Day-to-day management of data security is currently the responsibility of our Senior Vice President of Information Security and Risk
Management, who works in close collaboration with our Executive Vice President of Enterprise Technology & Chief Information
Officer. Both individuals hold senior executive positions and report directly to our Chief Financial Officer. Day-to-day management of
our data privacy policies is currently overseen by our Senior Vice President, Global Public Policy, who reports directly to our General
Counsel. The Audit Committee reviews cybersecurity and data security risks and mitigation strategies with the Chief Information
Officer at least annually. In December 2021, the Board memorialized the Audit Committee’s oversight of cybersecurity and data
security risks in the Audit Committee’s charter.
The independent Chairman promotes effective communication and consideration of matters presenting significant risks to the
Company through her role in developing the Board’s meeting agendas, advising committee chairs, chairing meetings of the Board
and facilitating communications between independent Directors and the Chief Executive Officer.
Management Succession Planning

The Board considers the selection, retention and succession planning for the Chief Executive Officer of the Company to be its most
important priority. The Board reserves time at every regularly scheduled Board meeting to meet in executive session without the Chief
Executive Officer present during which it discusses management succession as appropriate. The Board also discusses management
succession with the Chief Executive Officer present at least once each year, and more often as circumstances warrant. These
discussions include evaluation of potential internal candidates for succession and focus on particular individuals as appropriate. In the
course of these discussions, the Board identifies potential candidates and advises the Chief Executive Officer of the exposure these
candidates should receive to maximize the ability of the Board to evaluate the candidates’ qualifications. The Board also evaluates
the experience the candidates should gain to develop their ability to succeed.
At least once a year the Board discusses with management succession planning for executive officer positions. During fiscal 2021
each of Alan Braverman, Jayne Parker and Zenia Mucha notified the company of their intention to separate from the Company.
Effective July 1, 2021, Paul Richardson was appointed Senior Executive Vice President and Chief Human Resources Officer. Geoff
Morrell has been appointed, effective January 24, 2022, Chief Corporate Affairs Officer, a newly created position overseeing the
Company’s corporate communications, government relations, global public policy, CSR and ESG functions. Effective February 1,
2022, Horacio Gutierrez has been appointed Senior Executive Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary.
Director Selection Process

Working closely with the full Board, the Governance and Nominating Committee develops criteria for open Board positions.
Applying these criteria, the Committee considers candidates for Board membership suggested by Committee members, other Board
members, management and shareholders. The Committee retains a third-party executive search firm to identify and review
candidates, including to generate candidate pools consistent with the criteria below, upon request of the Committee from time to time.
Once the Committee has identified a prospective nominee — including prospective nominees recommended by shareholders — it
determines whether to conduct a full evaluation. The Committee may request the third-party search firm to gather additional
information about the prospective nominee’s background and experience and to report its findings. The Committee then evaluates the
prospective nominee against the specific criteria that it has established for the position, as well as the standards and qualifications set
out in the Company’s Corporate Governance Guidelines, including:
• the ability of the prospective nominee to represent the interests of the shareholders of the Company;
• the prospective nominee’s standards of integrity, commitment and independence of thought and judgment;
• the prospective nominee’s ability to dedicate sufficient time, energy and attention to the diligent performance of the duties of a
Director, including by attending shareholder meetings and meetings of the Board and applicable committees, as specifically set out
in the Company’s Corporate Governance Guidelines;
• the extent to which the prospective nominee helps the Board meet the standards of independence as set forth below under the
section “Director Independence”;
• the extent to which the prospective nominee contributes to the range of talent, skill and expertise appropriate for the Board;
• the extent to which the prospective nominee helps the Board reflect the diversity of the Company’s shareholders, employees,
customers and guests and the communities in which it operates; and
• the willingness of the prospective nominee to meet the minimum equity interest holding guideline set out in the Company’s
Corporate Governance Guidelines.
After completing this evaluation and an interview, the Committee makes a recommendation to the full Board, which makes the final
determination whether to nominate or appoint the new director after considering the Committee’s report.
In selecting director nominees, the Board seeks to achieve a mix of members who together bring experience and personal
backgrounds relevant to the Company’s strategic priorities and the scope and complexity of the Company’s business. For more
information on the key skills and experiences that the Board considers important in selecting director nominees, see the section titled
“The Board of Directors.” The current nominees’ qualifications set forth in their individual biographies under the section titled
“Directors” sets out how each of the current nominees contributes to the mix of experience and qualifications the Board seeks.
In making its recommendations with respect to the nomination for re-election of existing Directors at the annual shareholders meeting,
the Committee assesses the composition of the Board at the time and considers the extent to which the Board continues to reflect the
criteria set forth above.
During fiscal 2021, the Board appointed two new directors: Amy Chang and Calvin McDonald. Ms. Chang and Mr. McDonald were
recommended by a third-party search firm. Mr. Iger also stepped down from the Board in fiscal 2022.
A shareholder who wishes to recommend a prospective nominee for the Board should notify the Company’s Secretary or any member
of the Governance and Nominating Committee in writing with whatever supporting material the shareholder considers appropriate.
The Governance and Nominating Committee will also consider whether to nominate any person nominated by a shareholder
pursuant to the provisions of the Company’s Bylaws relating to shareholder nominations as described in the section “Other
Information—Shareholder Communications” below.
Director Independence
The provisions of the Company’s Corporate Governance Guidelines regarding Director independence meet and in some respects
exceed the listing standards of the New York Stock Exchange. The Corporate Governance Guidelines are available on the
Company’s Investor Relations website under the “Corporate Governance” heading at www.disney.com/investors.
Pursuant to the Corporate Governance Guidelines, the Board undertook its annual review of Director independence in December
2021. During this review, the Board considered transactions and relationships between the Company and its subsidiaries and
affiliates on the one hand, and on the other hand, Directors, immediate family members of Directors, or entities of which a Director or
an immediate family member is an executive officer, general partner or significant equity holder. The Board also considered whether
there were any transactions or relationships between any of these persons or entities and the Company’s executive officers or their
affiliates. As provided in the Corporate Governance Guidelines, the purpose of this review was to determine whether any such
relationships or transactions existed that were inconsistent with a determination that the Director is independent.
As a result of this review, the Board affirmatively determined that all of the Directors serving in fiscal 2021 or nominated for election
at the 2022 Annual Meeting are independent of the Company and its management under the standards set forth in the Corporate
Governance Guidelines, with the exception of Mr. Iger and Mr. Chapek. Mr. Iger and Mr. Chapek are considered inside Directors
because of their employment as senior executives of the Company during the fiscal year. Additionally, Mr. Chapek’s son provided
producer services to the Company in fiscal 2021, as discussed under the section titled “Certain Relationships and Related Person
Transactions” below.
In determining the independence of each Director, the Board considered and deemed immaterial to the Directors’ independence
transactions involving the sale of products and services in the ordinary course of business between the Company on the one hand,
and on the other, companies or organizations at which some of our Directors or their immediate family members were officers or
employees during fiscal 2021. In each case, the amount paid to or received from these companies or organizations in each of the
last three years was below the 2% of total revenue threshold in the Corporate Governance Guidelines. The Board determined that
none of the relationships it considered impaired the independence of the Directors.
Director Compensation
Fiscal 2021
The elements of annual Director compensation for fiscal 2021 were as follows:
Annual Board retainer $115,000
Annual committee retainer (except Executive Committee)1 $ 10,000
Annual Governance and Nominating Committee chair retainer2 $ 15,000
Annual Compensation Committee chair retainer2 $ 20,000
Annual Audit Committee chair retainer2 $ 25,000
Annual deferred stock unit grant $190,000

1 Per committee.
2 This is in addition to the annual committee retainer the Director receives for serving on the committee.
3 This is in addition to the annual Board retainer, committee fees and the annual deferred stock unit grant.
To encourage Directors to experience the Company’s products, services and entertainment offerings personally, each non-employee
Director may receive Company products and services up to a maximum of $15,000 in fair market value per calendar year plus
reimbursement of associated tax liabilities. Directors’ spouses, children and grandchildren may also participate in this benefit within
each Director’s limit.
The Company reimburses Directors for the travel expenses of, or provides transportation on Company aircraft for, immediate family
members of Directors if the family members are specifically invited to attend events for appropriate business purposes. Family
members (including domestic partners) may accompany Directors traveling on Company aircraft for business purposes on a space-
available basis.
Directors participate in the Company’s employee gift matching program on the same terms as senior executives. Under this program,
the Company matches contributions of up to $50,000 per calendar year per Director to charitable and educational institutions
meeting the Company’s criteria.
Directors who are also employees of the Company receive no additional compensation for service as a Director.
Under the Company’s Corporate Governance Guidelines, non-employee Director compensation is determined annually by the Board
acting on the recommendation of the Governance and Nominating Committee. In formulating its recommendation, the Governance
and Nominating Committee receives input from the third-party compensation consultant retained by the Compensation Committee
regarding market practices for Director compensation.
DIRECTOR COMPENSATION
Fiscal 2022 Updates

For fiscal 2022, the Board updated the following elements of annual director compensation to better align with market practices. Prior
to this update, the Board had not increased its director compensation since 2018.
Annual Governance and Nominating Committee chair retainer1 $ 20,000
Annual Compensation Committee chair retainer1 $ 25,000
Annual Audit Committee chair retainer1 $ 27,500
Annual deferred stock unit grant $240,000
Annual retainer for independent Lead Director2,3 $ 60,000
Annual retainer for independent Chairman2,4 $145,000
1 This is in addition to the annual committee retainer the Director receives for serving on the committee.
2 This is in addition to the annual Board retainer, committee fees and the annual deferred stock unit grant.
3 To be paid pro rata for service from October 3, 2021 through December 30, 2021.
4 To be paid pro rata for service starting December 31, 2021 through the remainder of fiscal 2022.
The Board increased the maximum amount of Company products and services a first-year non-employee Director may receive as part
of the product familiarization benefits. For one year following their respective start date, each first-year non-employee Director may
receive Company products and services up to a maximum of $25,000 in fair market value plus reimbursement of associated tax
liabilities. After the first anniversary of their start date, such Directors will have an additional allowance of $15,000 prorated for
balance of the remaining calendar year.
The Board also amended the Directors’ participation in the Company’s employee gift matching program to decrease the maximum
amount of contributions matched by the Company from $50,000 to $20,000 per calendar year.

Fees Earned or Paid in Cash. “Fees Earned or Paid in Cash” includes the annual Board retainer and annual committee and
committee-chair retainers, whether paid currently or deferred by the Director to be paid in cash or shares after service ends. Directors
are permitted to elect each year to receive all or part of their retainers in Disney stock and, whether paid in cash or stock, to defer all
or part of their retainers until after service as a Director ends. Directors who elect to receive deferred compensation in cash receive a
credit each quarter, and the balance in their deferred cash account earns interest at an annual rate equal to 120% of the Applicable
Long-Term Federal Interest Rate, as determined from time to time by the United States Internal Revenue Service. For fiscal 2021, the
average interest rate was 2.99%.
The following table sets forth the form of fees received by each Director who elected to receive any portion of the compensation in a
form other than currently paid cash. The number of stock units awarded is equal to the dollar amount of fees accruing each quarter
divided by the average over the last ten trading days of the quarter of the average of the high and low trading price for shares of
Company common stock on each day in the ten-day period. Stock units distributed currently were accumulated throughout the year
and distributed as shares following December 31, 2021.

Stock Awards. “Stock Awards” sets forth the market value of the deferred stock unit grants to Directors and the amount reported is
equal to the market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of the award times the number of shares underlying the units.
Units are awarded at the end of each quarter and the number of units is determined by dividing the amount payable with respect to
the quarter by the average over the last ten trading days of the quarter of the average of the high and low trading price for shares of
the Company common stock on each day in the ten-day period. Each Director other than Ms. Chang and Mr. McDonald was
awarded 1,064 units in fiscal 2021. Ms. Chang and Mr. McDonald were each awarded 374 units in fiscal 2021.
Unless a Director elects to defer receipt of shares until after the Director’s service ends, shares with respect to annual deferred stock
unit grants are normally distributed to the Director on the second anniversary of the award date, whether or not the Director is still a
Director on the date of distribution.
At the end of any quarter in which dividends are distributed to shareholders, Directors receive additional stock units with a value
(based on the average of the high and low trading prices of the Company common stock averaged over the last ten trading days of
the quarter) equal to the amount of dividends they would have received on all stock units held by them at the end of the prior quarter.
Shares with respect to these additional units are distributed when the underlying units are distributed. Units awarded in respect of
dividends are included in the fair value of the stock units when the units are initially awarded and therefore are not included in the
tables above, but they are included in the total units held at the end of the fiscal year in the table below.
The following table sets forth all stock units held by each non-management Director serving during fiscal 2021 as of the end of fiscal
2021. All stock units are fully vested when granted, but shares are distributed with respect to the units only later, as described above.
Stock units in this table are included in the stock ownership table in the section of this proxy statement titled “Other Information –
Stock Ownership” except to the extent they may have been distributed as shares and sold prior to the date of the stock ownership
table.

The Company’s Corporate Governance Guidelines encourage Directors to own, or acquire within three years of first becoming a
Director, shares of common stock of the Company (including stock units received as Director compensation) having a market value of
at least five times the amount of the annual Board retainer for the Director. Unless the Board exempts a Director, each Director is also
required to retain stock representing no less than 50% of the after-tax value of exercised options and shares received upon distribution
of deferred stock units until such Director meets the stock holding guideline described above.
Based on the holdings of units and shares on January 10, 2022, each currently serving Director complied with the minimum holding
requirement on that date, except for Ms. Chang and Mr. McDonald, who have each served on the Board for less than three years.
All Other Compensation. “All Other Compensation” includes:
• Reimbursement of tax liabilities associated with the product familiarization benefits. The value of the product familiarization
benefits themselves and travel benefits are not included in the table as permitted by Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”)
rules because the aggregate incremental cost to the Company of providing these benefits did not exceed $10,000 for any
Director. The reimbursement of associated tax liabilities was $819 for Ms. Arnold, $215 for Ms. Catz, $4,335 for Mr. Froman,
$10,248 for Ms. Lagomasino and $49 for Mr. Rice.
• Interest earned on deferred cash compensation, which was less than $10,000 for each Director.
• The matching charitable contribution of the Company, which was $50,000 for Ms. Arnold, $50,000 for Ms. Barra, $50,000 for
Ms. Catz, $15,000 for Ms. Chang, $10,000 for Mr. deSouza, $65,000 for Mr. Froman and $50,000 for Mr. Rice. Matched
amounts exceed $50,000 in a fiscal year if contributions for separate calendar years are made in the same fiscal year or if there
were delays in processing earlier year matches.
Executive Compensation
Letter from the Compensation Committee
Our fiscal 2021 executive compensation program, described in the section titled “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” that
follows, is structured to closely align compensation to management’s performance and its execution against the Company’s long-term
strategic goals and value creation for our shareholders. We are pleased by our performance in fiscal 2021 in addressing the
ongoing impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and in executing against the Company’s long-term strategies and awarded
compensation accordingly. In addition, for fiscal 2021, the Committee developed the Other Performance Factors that increased
emphasis on diversity and inclusion, which had the highest weighting among the Other Performance Factors.
Fiscal 2021 began with continued acute uncertainty regarding the duration and impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. As the pandemic
continues to cause disruption and uncertainty, the Company remains committed to acting responsibly for our employees and the
communities we serve, including through health and safety measures at our parks, and augmented health benefit offerings for our
employees.
At the same time, Bob Chapek led the Company in both navigating the significant economic and operational challenges presented by the
pandemic and in reimagining the Company’s businesses. Building on the strong foundation established by former Executive Chairman,
Bob Iger, Mr. Chapek led his leadership team to best position our Company in the face of rapidly changing patterns of media
consumption. Mr. Chapek directed a significant increase in investment in content and the development of a distribution strategy to reach
consumers with our growing content offerings. To further that end, he restructured the Disney media and entertainment businesses to
support that strategy. At the parks, he oversaw the development of responsible protocols to enable guests to return to parks and cruises
around the world and reconstituted the annual pass access programs and launched new technology-based products to enable guests to
better navigate the parks and enhance their experience. These strategic actions have resulted in tangible shareholder value creation, with
Disney’s total shareholder return outperforming the S&P 500 by 12 percentage points for fiscal 2021.
Mr. Iger, in his role as Executive Chairman, supported a smooth leadership transition and oversaw significant enhancements to our
creative content, which is core to the Company’s success. Mr. Iger’s tenure as Executive Chairman ended on December 31, 2021, at
the expiration of his employment agreement. We thank Mr. Iger for his leadership in the growth of the Company and his strategic
vision. He created significant shareholder value over his tenure, including his more recent contributions as Executive Chairman, which
resulted in a remarkable slate of content that will fuel Disney’s growth for years to come. We also welcome Susan Arnold to her new
role as Chairman of the Board and look forward to continuing to work with her.
During fiscal 2021, including following our 2021 Annual Meeting, the Compensation Committee and the Company conducted
extensive engagement with our investors to continue seeking input on our executive compensation practices, particularly as we
continue to make leadership transitions. Throughout these discussions, our investors generally expressed support for our new CEO
compensation structure and emphasized their continued focus on alignment of pay and performance. As a Board and Compensation
Committee, we have heard and taken action in response to this feedback and are similarly focused on ensuring executive
compensation is aligned with broader Company performance:
• 90% of CEO target compensation is variable or at risk based on Company and stock price performance
• For fiscal 2022, 50% of target compensation for NEOs is PBUs, with target TSR payout at the 55th percentile of the S&P 500
We are pleased with the investor support we have heard during engagements following our 2021 Annual Meeting for the significant
changes we have made to our CEO compensation structure in each of the last several years. The changes for fiscal 2022 incorporate
the feedback we have received by increasing the performance-based component of compensation and the rigor of performance
required to produce payouts. For more information on feedback from our investors and our responsive actions, see the section of the
proxy statement titled “Proxy Summary—Shareholder Engagement and Responsiveness.”
We will continue to be responsive to our investors as we seek to maintain a highly performance-based executive compensation
program that drives long-term value creation for our shareholders.
Sincerely,
MARY T. BARRA MARIA ELENA LAGOMASINO CALVIN R. MCDONALD MARK G. PARKER

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
Compensation Discussion and Analysis

Introduction
This introduction highlights key considerations that guided compensation decisions this past fiscal year. Please review the complete
proxy statement, including the complete Compensation Discussion and Analysis section, and fiscal 2021 annual report before you vote.
NAVIGATING THE OPPORTUNITIES AND CHALLENGES OF FISCAL 2021
We started fiscal year 2021 coming off one of the most challenging years in the history of The Walt Disney Company where the
global pandemic effectively halted many of our businesses, including our theme park and production businesses. At the same time,
we were also encouraged by the unprecedented success and growth of our DTC businesses, with Disney+ leading the way.
While we started the fiscal year optimistic about the future, we still faced many uncertainties, including the impact of the ongoing
pandemic, the availability and uptake of vaccines, the return of live sporting events and the capability and government support to
reopen our parks, theaters and productions safely, as well as the overall impact of the pandemic on our lives and the broader
economy. Despite these challenges, in fiscal year 2021 the Company successfully reopened our parks and resorts and productions
with enhanced health and safety measures, developed new content and achieved tremendous subscription growth across all of our
DTC platforms (Disney+, Hulu and ESPN+). All the while, the Company also supported its employees, customers and communities and
responded to the associated business impact of the global pandemic. Key actions taken include:
• Enhanced health and safety measures for our customers and workforce. Developed reopening strategies, practices and robust
tools, including vaccination requirements, and resources to implement science-based, responsible health and safety protocols for
employees, guests and productions;
• Enhanced health, wellness and family resources for our employees. Offered vaccine education and on-site vaccination stations,
provided paid time-off for employees to get vaccinated, implemented a new flexible work policy, and continued to support
employees on furlough by covering the full cost of health benefits;
• Support for our communities. Provided in-kind and cash support in response to the COVID-19 pandemic to the communities in
which we operate and where our employees and cast members live and work across the globe, including donations of personal
protective equipment, food and consumables, and advertising time to raise awareness of food insecurity and health and safety
protocols. Continued to address racial and social issues facing our employees and communities globally, which included
charitable giving to programs serving underrepresented communities;
• Delivery of world-class content and experiences. Continued to deliver content and experience for our consumers through flexible and
creative content distribution approaches, including expanding releases on Disney+ and simultaneously releasing content at home;
and
• Enhanced Company DEI efforts. Continued to strengthen our DEI commitment through our Reimagine Tomorrow endeavor. For
additional details, see the section titled “Proxy Summary – Commitment to Diversity, Equity & Inclusion.”
The Company is continuing to carefully monitor health and safety conditions and adapt guidelines as necessary to prioritize the safety
of guests.
FISCAL 2021 PERFORMANCE HIGHLIGHTS
In fiscal 2021, as described in the preceding section and in more detail under “Individual Compensation Decisions” below, our
NEOs, which are Mr. Chapek, Chief Executive Officer, Ms. McCarthy, Senior Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer,
Mr. Iger, Executive Chairman, Mr. Braverman, Senior Executive Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary, Ms. Mucha, Senior
Executive Vice President and Chief Communications Officer, and Ms. Parker, former Senior Executive Vice President and Chief
Human Resources Officer, showed exceptional performance and leadership both in managing the Company in the face of the
COVID-19 pandemic and in driving a transformation of our businesses, building long-term value. Despite the significant challenges,
the Company’s businesses had exceptionally strong financial performance in fiscal 2021 against the measures approved by the
Compensation Committee. In fiscal 2021, some of the key highlights included:
• Successfully reopened all our parks across the world, while focusing on managing employee and guest health concerns;
• Restructured our media and entertainment operations to evolve our traditional media distribution business to a DTC-led distribution
model;
• Drove nearly $2.0 billion in global box office, with our films being 5 of the top 10 domestic box office titles;
• Enhanced the Company’s diversity, equity and inclusion efforts focusing on transparency, representation, accountability,
community, inclusive content and culture;
• Successfully increased subscribers at Disney+, Hulu and ESPN+, while launching Disney+ in 35 new countries; and
• Continued the successful integration of TFCF and Hulu.
The Compensation Committee has designed a compensation program that produces a strong pay and performance alignment. This
was evidenced by the payouts in fiscal 2020, which resulted in a significant reduction in executive pay in the face of challenging
Company performance due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. This was also evidenced in fiscal 2021, for which payouts
aligned with strong performance across many key financial, strategic, diversity and inclusion and other goals.
COMPENSATION PRACTICES
Executive Compensation Objectives and Methods: We have adopted an integrated approach to attract and retain high-caliber
executives in a competitive market for talent, while ensuring we adhere to corporate governance best practices.
Shareholder engagement Investor Relations and members of the Board regularly engage in investor outreach. See “Proxy
and responsiveness Summary—Shareholder Engagement and Responsiveness” above for a summary of actions taken
in response to shareholder feedback. With regard to executive compensation, the Compensation
Committee has addressed shareholder concerns and made changes to compensation for fiscal
2021, including:
• Maintaining the structure of 50% of the CEO’s equity award as performance-based restricted
stock units, in response to feedback to prioritize pay for performance
• Further incorporating diversity and inclusion metrics into NEO compensation, in response to
feedback to reflect ESG priorities in compensation design
• Removing ROIC as an annual bonus performance metric, in response to feedback to reduce
overlapping metrics in short- and long-term incentive programs
Incentive plan ESG metrics Fiscal 2021 bonus plan incorporates one of our priority ESG issues, diversity and inclusion (e.g.
representation, retention and content), which has the highest weighting among non-financial
metrics.
Equity retention guidelines NEOs must hold a meaningful amount of the Company’s stock. The CEO must hold equity valued
at five times his salary within five years of becoming CEO, while other named executive officers
must hold equity valued at three times their salary within five years of becoming an executive
officer.
Compensation at risk A majority of NEO compensation is tied to either short- or long-term Company performance. For
the CEO, 50% of his annual equity grants will be performance-based restricted stock units and
90% of his total target compensation is tied to performance and/or equity.
Annual risk assessment Each year, the Compensation Committee’s compensation consultant completes a risk assessment of
the Company’s compensation programs. Based on this assessment for fiscal 2021, the
Compensation Committee determined that risks arising from the Company’s policies and practices
are not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company.
Clawback policy The Board may recover or cancel any bonus or incentive payments in cases such as an executive’s
misconduct resulting in either financial or reputational harm.
Disallow hedging and Board members, NEOs and all other section 16 filers are prohibited from hedging and pledging
pledging the Company’s securities.
No option re-pricing or cash The Company does not allow re-pricing or cash buyouts of underwater stock options without
buyouts shareholder approval.
No excise tax gross-ups The Company does not provide excise tax gross-ups.
Independent compensation The Compensation Committee has retained a compensation consultant whose relationship with the
consultant Company was confirmed to be independent for fiscal 2021.
CHANGES FOR FISCAL 2022
In November 2021, the Compensation Committee reviewed the long-term incentive program and determined to make the following
changes for fiscal 2022 long-term incentive grants made in December 2021 to better align the interests of our executives with
shareholders:
• Increased performance-based restricted stock units from 30% to 50% of the overall long-term incentive grant value for the named
executive officers other than the CEO and Executive Chairman, who already had 50% in the form of performance-based restricted
stock units. The remaining value will be delivered 25% in time-vesting restricted stock units and 25% in stock options.
• For the relative TSR test of the performance-based restricted stock units, the target payout will now require Disney’s TSR
performance to be at the 55th percentile of the S&P 500 companies (increased from 50th percentile). In addition, the overall
maximum payout for performance-based restricted stock units will be 200% of target (increased from 150%).
Executive Compensation Program Structure — Objectives and Methods

We design our executive compensation program to drive the creation of long-term shareholder value. We do this by tying
compensation to the achievement of performance goals that promote the creation of shareholder value and by designing
compensation to attract and retain high-caliber executives in a competitive market for talent. We aim to provide compensation
opportunities that take into account compensation levels and practices of our peers. For a more detailed description of the peer
groups we use for compensation purposes, see the discussion under the heading, “Peer Groups,” set forth below. Total direct
compensation is comprised of a mix of variable and fixed compensation that is heavily weighted toward variable performance-based
compensation. Our performance-based compensation includes a short-term annual performance-based bonus and longer-term equity
awards that deliver value based on stock price performance and, in the case of performance-based stock units, whose vesting
depends on meeting performance targets. The Company enters into employment agreements with our senior executives when the
Compensation Committee determines that it is appropriate to attract or retain an executive or where an employment agreement is
consistent with our practices with respect to other similarly situated executives.
The following table sets forth the elements of total direct compensation in fiscal 2021 and the objectives and key features of each
element:
OBJECTIVES AND KEY FEATURES
SALARY
Objectives:
The Compensation Committee sets salaries to reflect job responsibilities and to provide competitive fixed pay to balance performance-based risks.
FIXED
Key Features:
• Minimum salaries set in employment agreement
• Committee discretion to adjust annually based on changes in experience, nature and responsibility of the position, competitive considerations and CEO
CASH COMPENSATION
recommendation (except in the case of the CEO and the Executive Chairman)
PERFORMANCE-BASED BONUS
Objectives:
The Compensation Committee structures the bonus program to incentivize performance at the high end of the financial performance measure ranges that it
establishes each year. The Committee believes that incentivizing performance in this fashion will lead to long-term, sustainable gains in shareholder value.
Key Features:
• Target bonus for each NEO set by the Committee early in the fiscal year in light of employment agreement provisions, competitive considerations, CEO
recommendation (except targets for the CEO and the Executive Chairman) and other factors the Committee deems appropriate; bonus opportunity
normally limited to 200% of target bonus
• Payout on 70% of target determined by performance against financial performance ranges developed by the Committee early in the fiscal year
• Payout on 30% of target determined by Company-wide Other Performance Factors and the Committee’s assessment of individual performance based
both on other performance objectives and on CEO recommendation (except the payouts for the CEO and the Executive Chairman)
EQUITY AWARDS GENERALLY

Objectives:
The Compensation Committee structures equity awards to directly reward long-term gains in shareholder value. Equity awards carry vesting terms
that extend up to four years and include performance units whose value depends on Company performance, including performance relative to the
S&P 500. These awards provide incentives to create and sustain long-term growth in shareholder value.
VARIABLE
Key Features:
• Combined value of options, performance units and time-based units determined by the Committee in light of employment agreement provisions,
competitive market conditions, evaluation of executive’s performance and CEO recommendation (except awards for the CEO and the Executive
Chairman)
• Allocation of annual awards for Executive Chairman (based on award value): 50% performance-based restricted stock units; 50% stock options
• Allocation of annual awards for CEO (based on award value): 50% performance-based restricted stock units; 25% time-vesting restricted stock units; 25%
stock options
• For fiscal 2021, the allocation of annual awards for other NEOs (based on award value): 30% performance-based restricted stock units; 30% time-vesting
restricted stock units; 40% stock options. For fiscal 2022, the allocation of annual awards will be: 50% performance-based restricted stock units; 25%
EQUITY COMPENSATION
time-vesting restricted stock units; 25% stock options
STOCK OPTION AWARDS

Key Features:
• Exercise price equal to average of the high and low trading prices on day of award
• Option re-pricing without shareholder approval is prohibited
• Ten-year term
• Vest one-third per year
ANNUAL PERFORMANCE-BASED RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS

Key Features:
• Performance-based units reward executives only if specified financial performance measures are met
• Subject to performance tests, units vest three years after grant date
• Half of awards vest based on three-year cumulative TSR relative to the S&P 500; the other half vest based on three-year return on invested capital,
comprised of three one-year performance periods. For fiscal 2021, awards included three measurement periods of one year each due to continued
financial uncertainties. Awards as described in the section entitled “Compensation Tables — Fiscal 2021 Grants of Plan Based Awards Table”
• Annual units awarded to executive officers are subject to the Section 162(m) test to the extent necessary and available to obtain tax deductibility by the
Company of the payment
ANNUAL TIME-BASED RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS
Key Features:
• One-third vests each year following grant date
• Annual units awarded to executive officers are subject to Section 162(m) test to the extent necessary and available to obtain tax deductibility by
the Company of the payments
COMPENSATION AT RISK
The Compensation Committee believes that most of the compensation for NEOs should be at risk and tied to a combination of long-
term and short-term Company performance. 90% of the Chief Executive Officer’s and 84% of the other NEOs’ (excluding Mr. Iger)
fiscal 2021 annual target compensation is performance-based and/or equity compensation.
In establishing a mix of fixed to variable compensation, the composition of equity awards, target bonus levels, grant date equity
award values and performance ranges, the Committee seeks to maintain its goal of making compensation overwhelmingly tied to
performance, while also providing compensation opportunities that are competitive with alternatives available to the executive. In
particular, the Committee expects that performance at the high-end of ranges will result in overall compensation that is sufficiently
attractive relative to compensation available at successful competitors and that performance at the low-end of ranges will result in
overall compensation that is less than that available from competitors with more successful performance.
In determining the mix between options and restricted stock units, the Committee also considers the number of shares required for
each of these types of awards to deliver the appropriate value to executives.
The following charts show the percentage of the target total direct annual compensation for Mr. Chapek and all NEOs other than
Mr. Chapek and Mr. Iger that varies with performance and equity versus being fixed with respect to fiscal 2021. Performance-based
and equity compensation represents target performance-based bonus and equity awards while fixed compensation represents
base salary.

* Target mix for fiscal 2021 compensation. ** Target mix for fiscal 2021 compensation. Includes target compensation for all
NEOs other than Mr. Chapek and Mr. Iger. Mr. Iger’s target fiscal 2021
compensation was 91% performance-based: 9% base salary, 33% target
annual incentive, 29% stock options and 29% PBUs.
For fiscal 2022, the Compensation Committee determined to increase PBUs from 30% to 50% of the overall long-term incentive grant
value for the named executive officers other than the CEO and Executive Chairman, who already had 50% in the form of PBUs. This
shift reflects a meaningful increase in at-risk compensation, as evidenced by the actual results realized with respect to recent PBU
grants. For example, annual grant PBUs vesting in the last four years have resulted in below target payouts, 85%, 96%, 62% and
48%, for shares vesting in December 2018, 2019, 2020 and 2021, respectively. The 2017 extension PBU grant for Mr. Iger had a
payout of 69% and the fiscal 2020 ROIC test resulted in 0% payout for the first annual performance period in respect of that award.
The Committee believes this PBU structure strongly aligns pay and performance, which is underscored by the decision to further
increase the weighting of PBUs for other NEOs.
COMPENSATION PROCESS
The following table outlines the process for determining annual compensation awards for NEOs:
SALARIES PERFORMANCE-BASED BONUS
• Annually at the end of the calendar year, the Chief Executive • Compensation Committee participates in regular Board
Officer recommends salaries for NEOs other than the Executive review of operating plans and results and review of annual
Chairman and himself for the following calendar year operating plan at the beginning of the fiscal year
• Compensation Committee reviews proposed salary changes • Management recommends financial and other performance
with input from its consultant (described under “Compensation measures, weightings and ranges
Consultant”)
• Early in the fiscal year, the Committee reviews proposed
• Committee determines annual salaries for all NEOs performance measures and ranges with input from its
consultant and develops performance measures and ranges
• Committee reviews determinations with the other
that it believes establish appropriate goals
non-management directors
• Chief Executive Officer recommends bonus targets for NEOs
other than the Executive Chairman and himself
EQUITY AWARDS
• Early in the fiscal year, the Committee reviews bonus
• In first fiscal quarter, the Chief Executive Officer recommends
measure ranges with input from its consultant and in light
grant date fair value of awards for NEOs other than the
of the targets established by employment agreements and
Executive Chairman and himself
competitive conditions and determines bonus target
• Compensation Committee reviews proposed awards with opportunity as a percentage of fiscal year-end salary for
input from its consultant and reviews with other each NEO
non-management directors
• After the end of the fiscal year, management presents
• Committee determines the dollar values of awards financial results to the Committee
• Exercise price and number of options and restricted stock • Chief Executive Officer recommends Other Performance
units are determined by formula based on market price of Factor multipliers for NEOs other than himself and the
common shares on the date of award Executive Chairman
• Committee reviews the results and determines whether to

make any adjustments to financial results, determines other
performance factor multipliers and establishes bonus
• Committee reviews determinations with the other

non-management directors and, in the case of the Chief
Executive Officer and Executive Chairman, seeks their
concurrence in the Committee’s determination
MANAGEMENT INPUT
In addition to the Chief Executive Officer recommendations described above, management regularly:
• provides data, analysis and recommendations to the Compensation Committee regarding the Company’s executive compensation
programs and policies;
• administers those programs and policies as directed by the Committee;
• provides an ongoing review of the effectiveness of the compensation programs, including competitiveness and alignment with the
Company’s objectives; and
• recommends changes to compensation programs if needed to help achieve program objectives.
The Committee meets regularly in executive session without management present to discuss compensation decisions and matters
relating to the design and operation of the executive compensation program.
COMPENSATION CONSULTANT
The Compensation Committee retained Pay Governance LLC as the compensation consultant for fiscal 2021. The consultant assists the
Committee’s development and evaluation of compensation policies and practices and the Committee’s determinations of
compensation awards through various services, including providing third-party data, advice and expertise on proposed executive
compensation awards and plan designs, reviewing briefing materials prepared by management and outside advisers and advising
the Committee on the matters included in these materials and preparing its own analysis of compensation matters.
The Committee considers input from the consultant as one factor in making decisions on compensation matters, along with information
and analyses it receives from management and its own judgment and experience.
The Committee has adopted a policy requiring its consultant to be independent of Company management. The Committee performs
an annual assessment of the consultant’s independence to determine whether the consultant is independent. The Committee assessed
Pay Governance LLC’s independence in November 2021 and confirmed that the firm’s work has not raised any conflict of interest
and the firm is independent under the policy. Pay Governance LLC does not provide any services to the Company other than the
services provided to the Compensation Committee.
Fiscal 2021 Compensation Decisions

This section discusses the specific decisions made by the Compensation Committee in fiscal 2021. These decisions were made taking
into consideration the results of the most recent shareholder advisory vote on executive compensation. Based on the results of the
advisory vote on executive compensation, members of management and the Board engaged in extensive outreach to shareholders.
The Board took numerous actions in response to the shareholder feedback received, as described in more detail under “Proxy
Summary – Shareholder Engagement and Responsiveness.”
PERFORMANCE GOALS
The Compensation Committee normally develops performance goals for each fiscal year early in that year, and evaluates
performance against those goals after the fiscal year has ended to arrive at its compensation decisions.
GOALS
Financial Performance
In December 2020, the Compensation Committee reviewed the annual performance-based bonus program and determined to
implement several changes that were designed to support alignment with the Company’s strategic business direction and
reorganization. The Committee incorporated adjusted revenue as a financial metric to incentivize performance in a challenging
market by driving resiliency and innovation to generate revenue growth. Adjusted EPS and adjusted return on invested capital were
removed as financial metrics to better align with market practice and to focus incentives on the three key metrics of adjusted segment
operating income, adjusted after-tax free cash flow and adjusted revenue.
The Committee determined that adjusted segment operating income would have the highest weighting given the strategic importance
of delivering operating income results. The relative weights for calculating the portion of the NEO bonuses that is based on financial
performance is as follows:
• adjusted segment operating income—50%

• adjusted revenue—25%
• adjusted after-tax free cash flow—25%
The Committee also developed performance ranges for each of the measures in December 2020. These ranges are used to determine
the multiplier that is applied to 70% of each NEO’s target bonus. The overall financial performance multiple is equal to the weighted
average of the performance multiples for each of these three measures. The performance multiple for each measure is zero if
performance is below the bottom of the range and varies from 35% at the low end of the range to a maximum of 200% at the top
end of the range. The Committee believes the top of each range represents extraordinary performance and the bottom represents
satisfactory performance, below which no award would be provided. In addition, 30% of each NEO’s target bonus is based on
performance against key strategic goals for the Company, called “Other Performance Factors”. We believe the mix between key
financial and strategic factors is appropriate, given the majority of the bonus opportunity is focused on Company financial
performance, while still recognizing the importance that Other Performance Factors have on establishing a successful culture that
supports the Company’s strategic goals.
For fiscal 2021, in light of the significant uncertainties in the market and the impact on our businesses due to the pandemic, the
Committee chose to set performance ranges that acknowledged there was significantly more downside risk than upside potential
based on the environment at the time. For example, there was uncertainty about when our parks would be allowed to fully reopen,
the cost of maintaining healthcare for furloughed employees and following COVID-19 protocols, uncertainty about production delays
and theatrical attendance, as well as the broader impact on the economy and its effects on our businesses. While the Committee
approved ranges for adjusted segment operating income and adjusted after-tax free cash flow that were lower than our fiscal 2020
results, the Committee believed the ranges appropriately took into account the uncertainties and challenges the Company had to
navigate in fiscal 2021. The following table shows the performance ranges approved by the Committee for fiscal 2021 (dollars in
millions):
FISCAL 2021
PERFORMANCE
RANGE
Adjusted Segment Operating Income* $(3,906)-$2,194
Adjusted Revenue** $55,030-$66,596
Adjusted After-Tax Free Cash Flow*** $(11,871)-$(4,503)
* For purposes of the annual performance-based bonuses, “adjusted segment operating income” reflects the adjustments described under
“—Evaluating Performance.”
** For purposes of the annual performance-based bonuses, “adjusted revenue” reflects the adjustments described under “—Evaluating Performance.”
*** For purposes of the annual performance-based bonuses, “adjusted after-tax free cash flow” was defined as cash provided by operations less
investments in parks, resorts and other properties, all on a consolidated basis and reflects the adjustments described under “—Evaluating
Performance.”
In fiscal 2021, the exceptional leadership of our NEOs enabled us to recover from the impacts of the pandemic more quickly than
previously anticipated by taking numerous innovative actions in response to the pandemic. In particular, our management guided the
development of new content offerings and delivery of content to our consumers through flexible and creative distribution approaches.
In addition, management oversaw creation of responsible health and safety protocols to enable guests to return to parks and cruises
around the world and took meaningful and innovative steps in reopening our parks, including reconstituting the annual pass access
programs, enhancing mobile ordering and implementing a reservation system. Such actions enabled the Company to resume
operations at our theme parks and resorts, cruise ship sailings, guided tours and stage plays.
For fiscal 2022, the Committee considered the incremental increase in visibility related to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on
our business and increased the performance ranges from fiscal 2021.
Other Performance Factors
The Compensation Committee developed Other Performance Factors for the fiscal 2021 annual bonus in December 2020. For fiscal
2021, the Other Performance Factors further emphasized the importance of one of our priority ESG issues, diversity and inclusion,
which had the highest weighting among the Other Performance Factors. The Committee established the following factors based on the
recommendation of Mr. Chapek and the strategic objectives of the Company:
• ESG-Diversity & Inclusion – Meaningful progress building an inclusive culture through increased representation, recruitment,
retention and/or promotion of underrepresented groups globally; advance inclusive content by increasing underrepresented
groups in creative hiring and exploring culturally diverse and authentic themes, characters and narratives; demonstrate
transparency and accountability
• Collaboration on strategic priorities – Actively promote and model collaboration and synergy of key strategic priorities and drive
clear accountability and partnership across all lines of business, in support of developing content and product for our key
franchises, accelerating our DTC initiatives and enabling the success of creative, operating and corporate teams
• Efforts towards resiliency, rebuilding & innovation – Lead the Company in its resiliency and rebuilding efforts and orient towards
growth; ensure strong controls on costs and transformative ideas in achieving operational efficiencies and focus on innovation and
the creation of potential new sources of revenue
EVALUATING PERFORMANCE
The Compensation Committee reviewed the overall operating results of the Company in fiscal 2021, evaluating them against the
bonus plan performance ranges developed by the Committee early in the fiscal year. The Compensation Committee adjusted actual
fiscal 2021 total segment operating income and revenue to exclude the net benefits the Company received from timing variances
related to the pandemic, such as savings from delayed programming and domestic parks operating efficiencies, partially offset by
delays in park openings. The Compensation Committee adjusted after-tax free cash flow to exclude non-recurring items, such as
severance and restructuring.
Based on these results, the weighted financial performance factor was 200% in fiscal 2021 compared to a factor of 21% in fiscal
2020, where the Committee elected to provide no bonuses to the NEOs even though the financial performance would have supported
bonus payments. Adjusted after-tax free cash flow performance of -$2,188 million, adjusted segment operating income of
$4,055 million, and adjusted revenue of $66,736 million were all above the maximum and resulted in 200% payout. Additional
details regarding the performance of the Company are set forth in the section titled “Proxy Summary” and our Annual Report on
Form 10-K for fiscal 2021.
With respect to the Other Performance Factors, the Committee recognizes that while we still have more work ahead of us, the NEOs
demonstrated extraordinary leadership and accomplishments during continued challenging circumstances, including:
ESG-Diversity & Inclusion
• Further enhanced the Company’s diversity and inclusion practices focusing on transparency, representation, accountability,
community, inclusive content and culture. A significant milestone was the launch of the Reimagine Tomorrow Digital Hub, the
Company’s first digital platform for employees, guests and fans for amplifying underrepresented voices and untold stories.
• Enhanced reporting by publishing the 2020 CSR report with increased transparency including providing certain disclosures
aligned with the SASB framework, and published EEO-1 data for calendar years 2019 and 2020.
• In an incredibly competitive talent market, doubled down on our initiatives to increase diverse representation, including setting
diverse candidate and interview slates, conducting inclusive leader training, investing in talent development and our over 90
Business Employee Resource Groups.
• Placed an intentional focus on executive and management populations, knowing these employees are influencers with a high level
of impact on the broader organization, which resulted in positive representation trends in our executives and management for both
women and people of color, especially among Black employees.
• Efforts also resulted in positive trends in promotions for women and people of color for executives and managers, and overall the
Company was able to retain and develop diverse executives and management in an extremely competitive market for talent.
• Several key initiatives supported these achievements, such as the Executive Incubator Program, a two-year program creating a
pipeline of next-generation creative executives, exposing individuals with diverse and varied perspectives to the Disney General
Entertainment business and the Black Talent Network, which promotes career opportunities and exposure to the Company’s
leaders for Black Vice Presidents in the U.S.
• Championed a multitude of voices and perspectives to forge meaningful connections with our consumers, including reimagining
the way we tell stories and who tells them. For example, Disney’s Launchpad Shorts Incubator program provided a platform for
diverse writers and directors to create short films for Disney+ and the Company’s film and television productions focused on
diversity in creative roles in front of and behind the camera, strengthening inclusive storytelling with a roster of actors and
filmmakers from all backgrounds.
• Invested in our community, as the Company supported various organizations committed to advancing equality, access and
economic opportunity, such as non-profit programs to expand access and opportunities for entertainment professionals with
disabilities and Hispanic/Latin producers and television writers. In addition, Disney on the Yard, a HBCU pipeline development
initiative, has engaged nearly 800 HBCU students, 200 HBCU alumni and 600 employees.
Collaboration on strategic priorities
• Successfully increased subscribers at Disney+ (+60%), Hulu (+20%) and ESPN+ (+66%) during fiscal year 2021, while launching
DTC platforms in several key international markets, including 35 different countries.
• Teams across the Company partnered to design and execute a virtual DTC-focused Investor Day, highlighting the breadth of
content that our services offer. The event garnered more than 300,000 live streams.
• Reorganized the Company’s operating units to increase creative output while centralizing and optimizing distribution management
within our media operations. As part of this work, engineered two segments – one focused on integrated media across all
distribution channels, and one focused on our experiential parks and products business – while reorganizing creative units into
three groups focused on film, general entertainment and sports.
• Continued the successful integration of TFCF and Hulu, enabling a stronger culture of one unified Company, with a focus on
collaboration to enhance our various brands across the Company.
Efforts towards resiliency, rebuilding & innovation
• Redesigned our media and entertainment operations to evolve our traditional media distribution business to a DTC-led distribution
model, supporting our go-forward business strategy.
• In an incredibly challenging theatrical distribution market, innovated the Disney Premier Access business model, improving
financial outcomes, while still building the pipeline for the theatrical business.
• Continued to implement the Company’s reopening strategy for our parks and workplaces globally, putting in place responsible
standards in health, safety and well-being for our employees, cast members and guests.
• Leveraged technology and COVID-driven operational pauses to reimagine the parks experience, prioritizing guest satisfaction and
personalization, such as the development of Disney Genie, Magic Key and digital guest self-service offerings.

Individual Compensation Decisions

ANNUAL COMPENSATION DECISIONS
The following table summarizes annual compensation decisions made by the Compensation Committee with respect to each of the
NEOs. The Committee established the salary and performance-based bonus target multiple of salary for each of the NEOs early in the
fiscal year. The final bonus award was calculated after the fiscal year ended using the financial performance factor of 200%
described above. The Other Performance Factors determined by the Committee described below applied to the target bonus
opportunity for that executive.

4 The number of restricted stock units and options was calculated from the value of the award as described in the table in the section titled
“Compensation Tables – Fiscal 2021 Grants of Plan Based Awards Table.”
5 Ms. Parker retired from the Company effective July 1, 2021. The decision on her performance-based bonus took into account her partial year of
service.
The compensation set forth above and described below differs from the total compensation reported in the Summary Compensation
Table as follows:
• the compensation set forth above does not include the change in pension value and non-qualified deferred compensation earnings
as these items do not reflect decisions made by the Committee during the fiscal year.
• the compensation set forth above does not include perquisites and benefits and other compensation as these items are generally
determined by contract and do not reflect decisions made by the Committee during the fiscal year.
The Compensation Committee’s determination on each of these matters was based on the recommendation of Mr. Chapek (except in
the case of his own and Mr. Iger’s compensation), the parameters established by the executive’s employment agreement and the
factors described below. In determining equity awards, the Committee considered its overall long-term incentive guidelines for all
executives, which, in the context of the competitive market for executive talent, attempt to balance the benefits of incentive
compensation tied to performance of the Company’s common stock with the dilutive effect of equity compensation awards.
ADDITIONAL CONTEXT FOR FISCAL 2020 AND FISCAL 2021 COMPENSATION DECISIONS
In fiscal 2020, our NEOs showed exceptional performance and leadership both in managing the Company in the face of the
COVID-19 pandemic and in driving a transformation of our businesses and building long-term value. Notwithstanding these
significant accomplishments for our shareholders, the impact of the pandemic on our businesses and resulting actions our
Compensation Committee took in light of challenging performance led to a meaningful reduction in CEO and other NEO
compensation.
• Three of the four financial measures resulted in a 0% payout in the annual performance-based bonus program, in line with
performance for fiscal 2020
• The Board decided to not provide bonuses to NEOs with respect to fiscal 2020 in light of the Company’s circumstances
(notwithstanding the attainment of certain performance metrics and the strength of management’s performance)
• Each of the Company’s NEOs agreed to temporarily reduce their base salary for almost 5 months, effective with the payroll period
commencing April 5, 2020
In contrast, our strong fiscal 2021 performance and execution of our long-term strategy in fiscal 2021 resulted in higher payouts for
our executives, as described in the preceding and following sections. These dynamics contributed to the year-over-year increase that
appears in our Summary Compensation Table for fiscal 2021.

Executive Officer on February 24, 2020.
3 Ms. Parker received stock and option awards in fiscal 2021. These awards were then cancelled upon her retirement, effective July 1, 2021.
Salary. This column sets forth the base salary earned during each fiscal year. Fiscal 2020 reflects the voluntary reduction of the salary
of all NEOs in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Each of the Company’s NEOs agreed to temporarily reduce their base salary,
effective with the payroll period commencing April 5, 2020. Mr. Iger agreed to forgo his salary through the end of the fiscal year.
Mr. Chapek agreed to forgo 50% and each of Mr. Braverman, Ms. McCarthy, Ms. Mucha and Ms. Parker agreed to forgo 30% of
the base salary that would otherwise have been payable through August 22, 2020.
Stock Awards. This column sets forth the grant date fair value of the restricted stock unit awards granted to the NEOs during each
fiscal year as part of the Company’s long-term incentive compensation program. The grant date fair value of these awards was
calculated by multiplying the number of units awarded by the average of the high and low trading price of the Company’s common
stock on the grant date, subject to valuation adjustments for restricted stock unit awards subject to vesting conditions other than, where
applicable, the test to assure deductibility under Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code. The valuation adjustments for
performance-based awards reflect the fact that the number of shares received on vesting varies based on the level of performance
achieved and were determined using a Monte Carlo simulation that determines the probability that the performance targets will be
achieved. The grant date fair value of the restricted stock unit awards granted during fiscal 2021 is also included in the Fiscal 2021
Grants of Plan Based Awards Table.
Option Awards. This column sets forth the grant date fair value of options to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock
granted to the NEOs during each fiscal year. The grant-date fair value of these options was calculated using a binomial option
pricing model. The assumptions used in estimating the fair value of these options are set forth in footnote 13 to the Company’s
Audited Financial Statements for fiscal 2021. The grant date fair value of the options granted during fiscal 2021 is also included in
the Fiscal 2021 Grants of Plan Based Awards Table.
Non-Equity Incentive Plan Compensation. This column sets forth the amount of compensation earned by the NEOs under the
Company’s annual performance-based bonus program during each fiscal year. A description of the Company’s annual performance-
based bonus program is included in the section “Compensation Discussion and Analysis – Executive Compensation Program Structure
– Objectives and Methods,” and the determination of performance-based bonuses for fiscal 2021 is described in the section
“Compensation Discussion and Analysis – Fiscal 2021 Compensation Decisions.” As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, fiscal 2020
reflects the Compensation Committee’s determination to pay no bonuses to the NEOs, despite achievement of certain performance
metrics and considerations that might have otherwise supported a bonus payment.
Change in Pension Value and Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation Earnings. This column reflects the aggregate change in the
actuarial present value of each NEO’s accumulated benefits under all defined benefit plans, including supplemental plans, during
each fiscal year. The amounts reported in this column vary with a number of factors, including the discount rate applied to determine
the value of future payment streams, the NEO’s age and additional earned benefits as a result of an additional year of service. The
discount rate used pursuant to pension accounting rules to calculate the present value of future payments was 3.22% for fiscal 2019,
2.82% for fiscal 2020 and 2.88% for fiscal 2021. Neither increases nor decreases in pension value resulting from changes in the
discount rate result in any increase or decrease in benefits payable to participants under the plan. For Mr. Iger and Mr. Braverman,
their age factors drove the change in pension value to be negative (-$397,782 and -$70,827, respectively).
Mr. Chapek, Ms. McCarthy, Mr. Iger and Ms. Mucha were credited with earnings on deferred compensation as disclosed below
under “Fiscal 2021 Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation Table.” These earnings were at rates that were not above market rates
and therefore are not reported in this column.
All Other Compensation. This column sets forth all of the compensation for each fiscal year that we could not properly report in any
other column of the table, including:
• the incremental cost to the Company of perquisites and other personal benefits;
• the amount of Company contributions to employee savings plans;
• the dollar value of insurance premiums paid by the Company with respect to excess liability insurance for the NEOs; and
• the dollar amount of matching charitable contributions made to charities pursuant to the Company’s charitable gift matching
program, which is available to all regular U.S. employees with at least one year of service.
The dollar amount of matching charitable contributions was $30,000 for Mr. Chapek, $67,500 for Ms. McCarthy, $25,000 for
Mr. Iger, $51,958 for Mr. Braverman and $100,000 for Ms. Parker. Matched amounts exceed $50,000 in a fiscal year if
contributions for separate calendar years are made in the same fiscal year or if there were delays in processing earlier year matches.
In accordance with the SEC’s interpretations of its rules, this column also sets forth the incremental cost to the Company of certain
items that are provided to the NEOs for business purposes but which may not be considered integrally related to duties.
The following table sets forth the incremental cost to the Company of each perquisite and other personal benefit that exceeded the
greater of $25,000 or 10% of the total amount of perquisites and personal benefits for a named executive officer in fiscal 2021.

Robert A. Chapek $228,294 $ — $45,097 $ 273,391

The incremental cost to the Company of the items specified above was determined as follows:
• Personal air travel: the actual catering costs, landing and ramp fees, fuel costs and lodging costs incurred by flight crew plus a per
hour charge based on the average hourly maintenance costs for the aircraft during the year for flights that were purely personal in
nature, and a pro-rata portion of catering costs where personal guests accompanied a NEO on flights that were business in
nature. Where a personal flight coincided with the repositioning of an aircraft following a business flight, only the incremental
costs of the flight compared to an immediate repositioning of the aircraft are included. As noted below, Mr. Iger and Mr. Chapek
are required for security reasons to use corporate aircraft for all of their personal travel.
• Security: the actual costs incurred by the Company for providing security services and equipment.
The “Other” column in the table above includes, to the extent a NEO elected to receive any of these benefits, the incremental cost to
the Company of the vehicle benefit, personal air travel (except for the NEOs whose personal air travel is separately identified in the
“personal air travel” column in the table above), reimbursement of up to $1,000 per calendar year for wellness-related purposes such
as fitness and nutrition management, reimbursement of expenses for financial consulting and for officers at the vice president level
and higher before October 1, 2012, a fixed monthly payment to offset the costs of owning and maintaining an automobile.
The Company provides employees with benefits and perquisites based on competitive market conditions. All salaried employees,
including the NEOs, receive the following benefits: (i) health care coverage; (ii) life and disability insurance protection;
(iii) reimbursement of certain educational expenses; (iv) access to favorably priced group insurance coverage; and (v) Company
matching of gifts of up to $25,000 per employee (and $50,000 per Senior Executive Vice President and Chairman directly reporting
to the CEO) each calendar year to qualified charitable organizations. Additionally, officers at the vice president level and above,
including NEOs, receive the following benefits, each of which involved no incremental cost to the Company: (i) complimentary access
to the Company’s theme parks and some resort facilities; (ii) discounts on Company merchandise and resort facilities; and
(iii) personal use of tickets acquired by the Company for business entertainment when they become available because no business use
has been arranged.

1 Stock awards for fiscal 2021 subject to performance conditions were valued based on the probability that performance targets will be achieved. Assuming the highest
level of performance conditions are achieved, the grant date stock award values would be $8,213,828, $4,016,984, $12,101,153, $2,713,883, $1,090,079 and
$1,865,307 for Mr. Chapek, Ms. McCarthy, Mr. Iger, Mr. Braverman, Ms. Mucha and Ms. Parker, respectively, for the performance-based awards made on
December 17, 2020.
2 Ms. Parker received RSUs, PBUs and stock option awards in fiscal 2021. These awards were then cancelled upon her retirement, effective July 1, 2021.
Grant Date. The Compensation Committee made the annual grant of stock options and restricted stock unit awards for fiscal 2021 on
December 17, 2020. A portion of the fiscal 2021 performance-based restricted stock units granted on December 17, 2020 are
subject to the ROIC performance test, as described below. One-third of such units were eligible to vest based on the ROIC
performance target established for fiscal 2021. Because the performance targets for fiscal 2022 and 2023 have not yet been
established, the grant date value of such portion of these awards was not determinable in fiscal year 2021. Therefore, the grant date
fair value listed for fiscal 2021 reflects only the grant date value of that portion of such awards subject to the 2021 ROIC target.
Based on the Company’s fiscal 2021 ROIC, 150% of the reported portion of such awards will vest. ROIC Targets for fiscal 2022 and
fiscal 2023 will be set early each year for the remaining portion of those grants, and the grant date values for the remaining portions
of those grants will be reported for the appropriate fiscal year when the applicable targets are established.
Estimated Possible Payouts Under Non-Equity Incentive Plan Awards. As described in the section “Compensation Discussion and
Analysis,” the Compensation Committee sets the target bonus opportunity for the NEOs at the beginning of the fiscal year as a
percentage of fiscal year-end salary, and the actual bonuses for the NEOs may, except in special circumstances such as unusual
challenges or extraordinary successes, range from 35% to 200% of the target level based on the Compensation Committee’s
evaluation of financial and other performance factors for the fiscal year. The bonus amount may be zero if actual performance is
below the specified threshold levels or less than the calculated amounts if the Compensation Committee otherwise decides to reduce
the bonus. As addressed in the discussion of “Compensation Discussion and Analysis,” the employment agreements of each executive
officer require that the target used to calculate the bonus opportunity (but not the actual bonus awarded) be at least the amount
specified in each agreement. This column shows the range of potential bonus payments for each NEO from the threshold to the
maximum based on the target range set at the beginning of the fiscal year. The actual bonus amounts received for fiscal 2021 are set
forth in the “Non-Equity Incentive Plan Compensation” column of the Fiscal 2021 Summary Compensation Table.
Estimated Future Payouts Under Equity Incentive Plan Awards. This column sets forth the number of restricted stock units awarded to
the NEOs during fiscal 2021 that are subject to the test to assure eligibility for deduction under Section 162(m) and/or to
performance tests as described below. These include units awarded to each of the NEOs as part of the annual grant in December
2020. The units in row A for Ms. Parker are subject to the test to assure eligibility under Section 162(m) in reliance on the special
rules for pre-existing binding written agreements and the units in row B for Ms. Parker are subject to this test as well as the
performance tests described below (for all NEOs). The vesting dates for all of the outstanding restricted stock unit awards held by the
NEOs as of the end of fiscal 2021 are set forth in the Fiscal 2021 Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year-End Table below.
For only Ms. Parker, all units in Row A (plus any shares received as dividend equivalents prior to vesting) vest if the Section 162(m)
test is met or is not applicable. This amount is shown in the “target” column for Row A. None of the units vest if the Section 162(m)
test is applicable and is not met.
In the case of units in Row B, which are subject to both the Section 162(m) test, where applicable, and the performance tests, none of
the units vest if the Section 162(m) test is applicable and is not met. All units in Row B are subject to the following vesting conditions:
• Half of the units subject to the performance test are subject to a total shareholder return test and half of the units are subject to a
ROIC test. For the total shareholder return test:
• None of the units related to this measure vest if the Company’s total shareholder return is below the 25th percentile of the
S&P 500 for that measure.
• If the Company’s total shareholder return is at or above the 25th percentile of the S&P 500 for the related measure, the number
of units related to that measure that vest will vary from 50% of the target number related to that measure (at the 25th percentile)
to 150% of the target number related to that measure (at or above the 75th percentile) (in each case, plus dividend equivalent
units).
• For the half of the units subject to the ROIC performance test:
• None of the units related to this measure vest if the Company’s fiscal year ROIC performance in each of the applicable fiscal
years is below threshold of target ROIC.
• If the Company’s ROIC is above the threshold in any fiscal year, the number of units related to that measure for that year that
vest will vary from 50% of the target number related to that measure (equals threshold) to 150% of the target number related to
that measure (exceeds maximum) (in each case, plus dividend equivalent units).
ROIC for the Company is adjusted (i) to exclude the effect of extraordinary, unusual and/or nonrecurring items and (ii) to reflect such
other factors, as the Committee deems appropriate to fairly reflect ROIC for the applicable fiscal year.
When dividends are distributed to shareholders, dividend equivalents are credited in an amount equal to the dollar amount of
dividends on the number of units held on the dividend record date divided by the fair market value of the Company’s shares of
common stock on the dividend distribution date. Dividend equivalents vest only when, if and to the extent that the underlying units
vest.
All Other Option Awards: Number of Securities Underlying Options. This column sets forth the options to purchase shares of the
Company’s common stock granted to the NEOs as part of the annual grant in December 2020. The vesting dates for these options
are set forth in the Fiscal 2021 Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year-End Table below. These options are scheduled to expire ten
years after the date of grant.
Exercise or Base Price of Option Awards; Grant Date Closing Price of Shares Underlying Options. These columns set forth the
exercise price for each option grant and the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. The exercise price is
equal to the average of the high and low trading price on the grant date, which may be higher or lower than the closing price on the
grant date.
Grant Date Fair Value of Stock and Option Awards. This column sets forth the grant date fair value of the stock and option awards
granted during fiscal 2021 calculated in accordance with applicable accounting requirements. The grant date fair value of all
restricted stock unit awards and options is determined as described in the section, “Grant Date,” above.

Number of Securities Underlying Unexercised Options: Exercisable and Unexercisable. These columns set forth, for each NEO and
for each grant made to the officer, the number of shares of the Company’s common stock that can be acquired upon exercise of
outstanding options. The vesting schedule for each option with unexercisable shares is shown under “Vesting Schedule” below. The
vesting of options held by the NEOs may be accelerated in the circumstances described under the section “Potential Payments and
Rights on Termination or Change in Control” below.
Number; Market Value of Units of Stock That Have Not Vested. These columns report the number and market value, respectively, of
shares underlying each grant of restricted stock units to each officer that is not subject to performance vesting conditions nor the test to
assure eligibility for deduction pursuant to Section 162(m). The number of shares includes dividend equivalent units that have accrued
for dividends payable through October 2, 2021. The market value is equal to the number of shares underlying the units times the
closing market price of the Company’s common stock on October 1, 2021, the last trading day of the Company’s fiscal year. The
vesting schedule for each grant is shown below, with grants identified by the letter following the number of shares underlying the
grant. Vesting of restricted stock units held by NEOs may be accelerated in the circumstances described under the section “Potential
Payments and Rights on Termination or Change in Control” below.
Number; Market Value of Unearned Units That Have Not Vested. These columns set forth the target number and market value,
respectively, of shares of the Company’s common stock underlying each restricted stock unit award held by each NEO that is subject
to performance-based vesting conditions and/or the test to assure eligibility for deduction pursuant to Section 162(m). The number of
shares includes dividend equivalent units that have accrued for dividends payable through October 2, 2021. The market value is
equal to the number of shares underlying the units multiplied by the closing market price of the Company’s common stock on
October 1, 2021, the last trading day of the Company’s fiscal year. The vesting schedule and performance tests and/or the test to
assure eligibility under Section 162(m) are shown in “Vesting Schedule,” below.
Vesting Schedule. The options reported above that are not yet exercisable and restricted stock unit awards that have not yet vested
are scheduled to become exercisable and vest as set forth below.
(A) Unless otherwise noted, stock options and restricted stock units granted before December 2020 will vest 25% on each of the
first four anniversaries of the grant date. Grants made in or after December 2020 will vest one-third on each of the first three
anniversaries of the grant date.
(B) For 2018 grants, performance-based restricted stock units will cliff-vest on the third anniversary of grant date, based on
three-year TSR and EPS performance versus the S&P 500. For 2019 and 2020, performance-based restricted stock units will cliff vest
on the third anniversary of grant date, based on three-year TSR versus S&P 500 and absolute ROIC tests for each of the fiscal years in
the three-year period (targets set each year). Mr. Iger’s December 13, 2017 grant of performance-based restricted stock units, grants
before 2018 for Mr. Braverman, before 2020 for Ms. McCarthy and all grants for Ms. Parker are subject to performance under
Section 162(m).
(C) While restricted stock units will vest 25% on each of the first four anniversaries of the grant date for grants made before
December 2020 and one-third on each of the first three anniversaries of the grant date for grants made in or after December 2020,
grants before 2018 for Mr. Braverman, before 2020 for Ms. McCarthy and all grants for Ms. Parker are subject to performance
under Section 162(m).
(D) Options granted February 28, 2020 in connection with Mr. Chapek’s appointment as Chief Executive Officer. One-third of
the remaining unexercisable options are scheduled to become exercisable on each of December 17, 2021, 2022 and 2023.
(E) Restricted stock units granted February 28, 2020 in connection with Mr. Chapek’s appointment as Chief Executive Officer.
One-third of the remaining units are scheduled to vest on each of December 17, 2021, 2022 and 2023.
(F) Restricted stock units granted February 28, 2020 in connection with Mr. Chapek’s appointment as Chief Executive Officer.
The units are scheduled to vest on December 17, 2022 subject to satisfaction of a three-year total shareholder return test and three
one-year ROIC tests, with the number of units vesting depending on the level at which the tests were satisfied.
(G) Restricted stock units granted December 13, 2017. Remaining shares are scheduled to vest on December 31, 2021.
(H) Restricted stock units granted December 13, 2017. The units are scheduled to vest on December 31, 2021 subject to
satisfaction of a total shareholder return test, with the number of units vesting depending on the level at which the tests were satisfied.
(I) Options granted March 21, 2019 following the close of the TFCF acquisition. One-half are scheduled to become exercisable
on each of December 19, 2021 and 2022.
(J) Restricted stock units granted March 21, 2019 following the close of the TFCF acquisition. The units are scheduled to vest on
December 19, 2021 subject to satisfaction of a total shareholder return and earnings per share test, with the number of units vesting
depending on the level at which the tests were satisfied.
(K) Ms. Parker retired from the Company effective July 1, 2021. While she did receive an annual grant on December 17, 2020,
she did not vest in the options, RSUs and performance-based restricted stock units granted in December 2020 and they were
cancelled upon her retirement.
Extended Vesting of Equity Awards

Options and restricted stock units continue to vest beyond retirement (and options remain exercisable) if (1) they were awarded at
least one year prior to the date of an employee’s retirement and (2) the employee was age 60 or older and had at least ten years of
service on the date such employee retired. In these circumstances:
• Options continue to vest following retirement according to the original vesting schedule. They remain exercisable for up to five
years following retirement. Options do not, however, remain exercisable beyond the original expiration date of the option.
• Restricted stock units continue to vest following retirement according to the original vesting schedule, but vesting remains subject to
any applicable performance conditions (except, in some cases, the test to ensure that the compensation is deductible pursuant to
Section 162(m)).
The extended vesting and exercisability is not available to certain employees outside the United States.
Options and restricted stock units awarded to executive officers with employment agreements also continue to vest (and options
remain exercisable) beyond termination of employment if the executive’s employment is terminated by the Company without cause or
by the executive with good reason. In this case, options and restricted stock units continue to vest (and options remain exercisable) as
though the executive remained employed through the end of the stated term of the employment agreement. If the executive would be
age 60 or older and have at least ten years of service as of the end of the stated term of the employment agreement, the options and
restricted stock units awarded at least one year prior to the end of the stated term of the agreement would continue to vest (and
options remain exercisable) beyond the stated term of the employment agreement.

the options. The value realized on the vesting of stock awards is equal to the closing market price of the Company’s common stock on
the date of vesting times the number of shares acquired upon vesting. The number of shares and value realized on vesting includes
shares that were withheld at the time of vesting to satisfy tax withholding requirements.
Equity Compensation Plans

The following table summarizes information, as of October 2, 2021, relating to equity compensation plans of the Company pursuant

Stock Incentive Plan reduces the number of shares available under the plan by two, so the number of securities available for issuance will be

Pension Benefits
The Company maintains a tax-qualified, noncontributory retirement plan, called the Disney Salaried Pension Plan D, for salaried
employees who commenced employment before January 1, 2012. Benefits are based on a percentage of total average monthly
compensation multiplied by years of credited service. For service years after 2012, average monthly compensation includes overtime,
commission and regular bonus and is calculated based on the highest five consecutive years of compensation during the ten-year
period prior to termination of employment or retirement, whichever is earlier. For service years prior to 2012, average monthly
compensation considers only base salary, benefits were based on a somewhat higher percentage of average monthly compensation,
and benefits included a flat dollar amount based solely on years and hours of service. Retirement benefits are non-forfeitable after
three years of vesting service (five years of vesting service prior to 2012) or at age 65 after one year of service. Actuarially reduced
benefits are paid to participants whose benefits are non-forfeitable and who retire before age 65 but on or after age 55.
In calendar year 2021, the maximum compensation limit under a tax-qualified plan was $290,000 and the maximum annual benefit
that may be accrued under a tax-qualified defined benefit plan was $230,000. To provide additional retirement benefits for key
salaried employees, the Company maintains a supplemental non-qualified, unfunded plan, the Amended and Restated Key Plan,
which provides retirement benefits in excess of the compensation limitations and maximum benefit accruals under tax-qualified plans.
Under this plan, benefits are calculated in the same manner as under the Disney Salaried Pension Plan D, including the differences in
benefit determination for years before and after January 1, 2012, described above, except as follows:
• starting on January 1, 2017, average annual compensation used for calculating benefits under the plans for any participant was
capped at the greater of $1,000,000 or the participant’s average annual compensation determined as of January 1, 2017; and
• benefits for persons who were NEOs on January 1, 2012 are limited to the amount the executive officer would have received had
the plan in effect prior to its January 1, 2012 amendment continued without change.
Company employees (including three of the NEOs) who transferred to the Company from ABC, Inc. after the Company’s acquisition
of ABC are also eligible to receive benefits under the Disney Salaried Pension Plan A (formerly known as the ABC, Inc. Retirement
Plan) and a Benefits Equalization Plan, which, like the Amended and Restated Key Plan, provides eligible participants retirement
benefits in excess of the compensation limits and maximum benefit accruals that apply to tax-qualified plans. Mr. Iger, Mr. Braverman
and Ms. Mucha received credited years of service under those plans for the years prior to the Company’s acquisitions of ABC, Inc. A
term of the 1995 purchase agreement between ABC, Inc. and the Company provides that employees transferring employment to
coverage under a Disney pension plan will receive an additional benefit under Disney plans equal to (a) the amount the employee
would receive under the Disney pension plans if all of the employee’s ABC service were counted under the Disney pension less (b) the
combined benefits the employee receives under the ABC plan (for service prior to the transfer) and the Disney plan (for service after
the transfer). Mr. Iger, Mr. Braverman and Ms. Mucha transferred from ABC, and each receives a pension benefit under the Disney
plans to bring the employee’s total benefit up to the amount the employee would have received if all the employee’s years of service
had been credited under the Disney plans. The effect of these benefits is reflected in the present value of benefits under the Disney
plans in the table below.
As of the end of fiscal 2021, Mr. Chapek and Ms. Mucha were eligible for early retirement; Mr. Iger, Mr. Braverman and
Ms. McCarthy were eligible for retirement and Ms. Parker had elected early retirement. The early retirement reduction is 50% at age
55, decreasing to 0% at age 65.

These present values assume that each named executive retires at age 65, even for Ms. Parker, who retired prior to age 65, (or their
age on October 2, 2021, if older) for purposes of the Disney Salaried Pension Plan D and the Amended and Restated Key Plan and
age 62 (or their age on October 2, 2021, if older) for purposes of the Disney Salaried Pension Plan A, and the Amended and
Restated Benefit Equalization Plan of ABC, Inc. Age 65 is the normal retirement age under each of the plans and is also the age at
which unreduced benefits are payable, except the earliest age at which unreduced benefits are payable under the ABC plans is age
62 for service years prior to 2012. The values also assume a straight life-annuity payment for an unmarried participant. Participants
may elect other actuarially reduced forms of payment, such as joint and survivor benefits and payment of benefits for a period certain
irrespective of the death of the participant. The present values were calculated using the 2.88% discount rate assumption set forth in
footnote 11 to the Company’s Audited Financial Statements for fiscal 2021 and using actuarial factors including Pri-2012 annuitant
mortality table, projected generationally with a modified version of the MP-2019 scale for males and females. The present values
reported in the table are not available as lump sum payments under the plans.
Fiscal 2021 Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation Table

Under the Company’s Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation Plan, U.S.-based executives at the level of Senior Vice President or
above may defer a portion of their compensation and applicable taxes with an opportunity to earn a tax-deferred return on the
deferred amounts. The plan gives eligible executives the opportunity to defer up to 50% of their base salary and up to 100% of their
annual performance-based bonus award until retirement or termination of employment or, at the executive’s election, until an earlier
date at least five years following the date the compensation is earned. The Company also has the option to make a contribution into
an executive’s deferred compensation account on terms and subject to any conditions (such as vesting conditions) the Company
chooses. Amounts in an executive’s deferred account earn a return based on the executive’s election among a series of mutual funds
designated by the Company, which are generally the same funds available under the Company’s qualified deferred compensation
plans. Returns on the funds available for the deferred account ranged from -0.9% to 44.09% for the year ended October 2, 2021.
The deferred amounts and any deemed earnings on the amounts are not actual investments and are obligations of the Company.
Ms. McCarthy participated in this plan in fiscal 2021, and her contributions and aggregate earnings during the fiscal year and
aggregate balance at the end of the fiscal year are reflected in the table below. Ms. McCarthy’s contributions represent deferred salary in
the amount of $951,242 and bonus in the amount of $7,336,137. Mr. Chapek and Ms. Mucha earned a return on amounts contributed
in prior fiscal years, and Ms. Parker had a negative return on the year, but they did not make a contribution in fiscal 2021.
From 2000 through 2005, $500,000 per year of Mr. Iger’s annual base salary was deferred. The following table sets forth the
earnings on the deferred amount in fiscal 2021 and the aggregate balance of Mr. Iger’s deferral account, including accumulated
earnings, as of October 2, 2021. Mr. Iger’s employment agreement provides that the deferred compensation will be paid, together
with interest at the applicable federal rate for mid-term treasuries, reset annually, no later than 30 days after he is no longer subject to
the provisions of Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code (or at such later date as is necessary to avoid the imposition of an
additional tax on Mr. Iger under Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code). The interest rate is adjusted annually in March and the
weighted average interest rate for fiscal 2021 was 0.999%. There were no additions during the fiscal year to the deferred amount by
either the Company or Mr. Iger other than these earnings and no withdrawals during the fiscal year.

Potential Payments and Rights on Termination or Change in Control

Our NEOs may receive compensation in connection with termination of their employment. This compensation is payable pursuant to
(a) the terms of compensation plans applicable by their terms to all participating employees and (b) the terms of employment
agreements with each of our NEOs. We have entered into employment agreements with NEOs that end on the following dates:
February 28, 2023 for Mr. Chapek, June 30, 2024 for Ms. McCarthy, December 31, 2021 for Mr. Iger, December 31, 2021 for
Mr. Braverman, December 31, 2021 for Ms. Mucha and June 30, 2021 for Ms. Parker. As Ms. Parker retired from the Company
before fiscal year end, she was not entitled to termination payments as of October 2, 2021.
The termination provisions serve a variety of purposes including: providing the benefits of equity incentive plans to the executive and
the executive’s family in case of death or disability; defining when the executive may be terminated with cause and receive no further
compensation; and clearly defining rights in the event of a termination in other circumstances. The availability, nature and amount of
compensation on termination differ depending on whether employment terminates because of:
• death or disability;
• the Company’s termination of the executive pursuant to the Company’s termination right or the executive’s decision to terminate
because of action the Company takes or fails to take;
• the Company’s termination of the executive for cause; or
• expiration of an employment agreement, retirement or other voluntary termination.
The compensation that each of our NEOs may receive under each of these termination circumstances is described below.
It is important to note that the amounts of compensation set forth in the tables below are based on the specific assumptions noted and
do not predict the actual compensation that our NEOs would receive. Actual compensation received would be a function of a number
of factors that are unknowable at this time, including: the date of the executive’s termination of employment; the executive’s base
salary at the time of termination; the executive’s age and service with the Company at the time of termination; and, because many
elements of the compensation are performance-based pursuant to the Company’s compensation philosophy described in
“Compensation Discussion and Analysis,” above, the future performance of the Company. Moreover, because each of Mr. Iger,
Mr. Braverman, and Ms. Mucha have voluntarily retired, none of them will become entitled to receive any compensation described
below in connection with a termination of employment, other than benefits that are available with respect to retirement.
Moreover, the option and restricted stock unit acceleration amounts in case of a termination without cause or by the executive for
good reason assume that these awards immediately accelerate, which is not the case in the absence of a change in control. Rather,
options and units continue to vest over time and in most cases are subject to the same performance measures that apply if there had
been no termination. (The performance measures do not apply to vesting of restricted stock unit awards when termination is due to
death or disability, and the test to assure deductibility under Section 162(m) does not apply if it is not necessary to preserve
deductibility.)
In addition, although the descriptions and amounts below are based on existing agreements, in connection with a particular
termination of employment the Company and the NEO may mutually agree on severance terms that vary from those provided in the
NEO’s pre-existing agreement.
In each of the circumstances described below, our NEOs are eligible to receive earned, unpaid salary through the date of termination
and benefits that are unconditionally accrued as of the date of termination pursuant to policies applicable to all employees. This
includes the deferred compensation and earnings on these deferred amounts as described under the “Fiscal 2021 Non-Qualified
Deferred Compensation Table.” This earned compensation is not described or quantified below because these amounts represent
earned, vested benefits that are not contingent on the termination of employment, but we do describe and quantify benefits that
continue beyond the date of termination that are in addition to those provided for in the applicable benefit plans. The executive’s
accrued benefits include the pension benefits described under “Pension Benefits,” which become payable to all participants who have
reached retirement age. Because they have reached early retirement or retirement age under the plans, each executive officer would
have been eligible to receive these benefits if their employment had terminated at the end of fiscal 2021. Because the pension
benefits do not differ from those described under “Pension Benefits” except in ways that are equally applicable to all salaried
employees, the nature and amount of their pension benefits are not described or quantified below.
DEATH AND DISABILITY
The employment agreement of each NEO provides for payment of any unpaid bonus for any fiscal year that had been completed at
the time of the executive’s death or termination of employment due to disability. The amount of the bonus will be determined by the
Compensation Committee using the same criteria used for determining a bonus as if the executive remained employed. As Ms. Parker
retired from the Company before fiscal year end, she was not entitled to death and disability payments as of October 2, 2021.
In addition to the compensation and rights in employment agreements, the 2011 Stock Incentive Plan and award agreements
thereunder provide that all options awarded to a participant (including the NEOs) become fully exercisable upon the death or
disability of the participant and remain exercisable for 18 months in the case of death and 12 months in the case of disability (or
18 months in the case of participants who are eligible for immediate retirement benefits or 36 to 60 months, depending on the
original grant date, in the case of participants who would at the time of termination due to disability be over 60 years of age and
have more than 10 years of service and where the options have been outstanding for one year at such time), and if the performance
measurement has not been made at the time of death or disability, all restricted stock units awarded to the participant under the 2011
Stock Incentive Plan will, to the extent the units had not previously been forfeited, fully vest and become payable upon the death or
disability of the participant. If a performance measurement has been made at the time of death or disability with respect to restricted
stock units, the restricted stock units will vest and accelerate based on the performance measurement.
The following table sets forth the value of the estimated payments and benefits each of our NEOs would have received under our
compensation plans and their employment agreements if their employment had terminated at the close of business on the last day of
fiscal 2021 as a result of death or disability. The value of option acceleration is equal to the difference between the $176.01 closing
market price of shares of the Company’s common stock on October 1, 2021 (the last trading day in fiscal 2021) and the weighted
average exercise price of options with an exercise price less than the market price times the number of shares subject to such options
that would accelerate as a result of termination. The value of restricted stock unit acceleration is equal to the $176.01 closing market
price of shares of the Company’s common stock on October 1, 2021 multiplied by the number of units that would accelerate as a
result of termination, which, for performance-based units, is equal to the target number of units.

TERMINATION PURSUANT TO COMPANY TERMINATION RIGHT OTHER THAN FOR CAUSE OR BY EXECUTIVE FOR GOOD REASON
The employment agreement of each NEO provides that the executive officer will receive a bonus for any fiscal year that had been
completed at the time of termination of employment if the executive officer’s employment is terminated by the Company pursuant to
the Company’s termination right other than for cause (as described below) or by the NEO with good reason (as described below).
The amount of the bonus will be determined by the Compensation Committee using the same criteria used for determining a bonus if
the executive remained employed.
In addition, each NEO’s employment agreement provides that the NEO will receive the following compensation and rights
conditioned on the NEO executing a mutual release of liability and (except in the case of Mr. Iger) agreeing to provide the Company
with consulting services for a period of six months after the NEO’s termination (or, if less, for the remaining term of the NEO’s
employment agreement):
• A lump sum payment to be made six months and one day after termination equal to the base salary the NEO would have earned
had the NEO remained employed during the term of the NEO’s consulting agreement or, in the case of Mr. Iger, equal to the base
salary he would have earned had he remained employed until the scheduled expiration date of his employment set forth in the
employment agreement.
• In the case of the NEOs other than Mr. Iger, if the consulting agreement was terminated other than as a result of the NEO’s
material breach of the consulting agreement, a further lump sum payment to be made six months and one day after termination of
employment equal to the base salary the NEO would have earned had the NEO remained employed after the termination of the
NEO’s consulting agreement and until the scheduled expiration date of employment set forth in the employment agreement.
• A bonus for the year in which the NEO is terminated equal to a pro-rata portion of a target bonus amount determined in
accordance with the employment agreement.
• All options that had vested as of the termination date or were scheduled to vest no later than three months after the original
contract termination date will remain or become exercisable as though the NEO were employed until that date. The options will
remain exercisable until the earlier of (a) the scheduled expiration date of the options and (b) three months after the scheduled
expiration date of the NEO’s employment as set forth in the employment agreement. In addition, as is true for all employees,
options awarded at least one year before termination will continue to vest and will remain exercisable until the earlier of the
expiration date of the option and five years after the termination date if the officer would have attained age 60 and have
completed more than 10 years of service as of that date. Pursuant to employment agreements with each of the NEOs, the
termination date for these purposes will be deemed to be the contract termination date set forth in the employment agreement. For
any employee that is eligible for immediate retirement benefits, options awarded within, but less than, one year of termination will
vest to the extent they are scheduled to vest within three months of termination and will remain exercisable for 18 months following
termination. In addition, any options granted to Mr. Iger less than one year prior to the date of termination will continue to vest
and remain exercisable until the expiration date of the option.
• All restricted stock units that were scheduled to vest prior to the contract termination date set forth in the employment agreement
will vest as though the NEO were employed until that date to the extent applicable performance tests are met (but any test to
assure deductibility of compensation under Section 162(m) will be waived for any units scheduled to vest after the fiscal year in
which the termination of employment occurs unless application of the test is necessary to preserve deductibility). As is true for all
employees, restricted stock units awarded at least one year before termination will continue to vest through the end of the vesting
schedule to the extent applicable performance criteria are met if the officer would be over 60 years of age and have more than
10 years of service as of the termination date. Pursuant to employment agreements with each of the NEOs, the termination date for
these purposes will be deemed to be the contract termination date set forth in the employment agreement. Any restricted stock units
awarded to Mr. Iger less than one year prior to the date of termination will continue to vest according to their original terms to the
extent applicable performance criteria are met.
The employment agreements provide that the Company has the right to terminate the NEO’s employment subject to payment of the
foregoing compensation in its sole, absolute and unfettered discretion for any reason or no reason whatsoever. A termination for
cause does not constitute an exercise of this right and would be subject to the compensation provisions described below under the
section “Termination for Cause.”
The employment agreements provide that a NEO can terminate the NEO’s employment “for good reason” following notice to the
Company within three months of the NEO having actual notice of the occurrence of any of the following events (except that the
Company will have 30 days after receipt of the notice to cure the conduct specified in the notice):
(i) a reduction in the NEO’s base salary, annual target bonus opportunity or (where applicable) annual target long-term
incentive award opportunity;
(ii) the removal from the NEO’s position (including in the case of Mr. Iger, the failure to elect or reelect him as a member of the
Board of Directors or his removal from the position of Chairman);
(iii) a material reduction in the NEO’s duties and responsibilities;
(iv) the assignment to the NEO of duties that are materially inconsistent with the NEO’s position or duties or that materially
impair the NEO’s ability to function in the NEO’s office;
(v) relocation of the NEO’s principal office to a location that is more than 50 miles outside of the greater Los Angeles area and,
in the case of Mr. Iger, that is also more than 50 miles from Manhattan; or
(vi) a material breach of any material provision of the NEO’s employment agreement by the Company.
A NEO (or any employee holding equity awards) can also terminate “for good reason” after a change in control (as defined in the
2011 Stock Incentive Plan) if, within 12 months following the change in control, a “triggering event” occurs, and in that case the
2011 Stock Incentive Plan provides that any outstanding options, restricted stock units, performance-based restricted stock units or
other plan awards will generally become fully vested and, in certain cases, paid to the plan participant. A triggering event is defined
to include: (a) a termination of employment by the Company other than for death, disability or “cause;” or (b) a termination of
employment by the participant following a reduction in position, pay or other “constructive termination.” Under the 2011 Stock
Incentive Plan, “cause” has the same meaning as in the NEO’s employment agreement, as defined below under “Termination for
Cause.” Any such payments that become subject to the excess parachute tax rules may be reduced in certain circumstances.
Each NEO’s employment agreement specifies that any compensation resulting from subsequent employment will not be offset against
amounts described above.
The following table provides a quantification of benefits (as calculated in the following paragraph) each of the NEOs would have
received if their employment had been terminated at the end of fiscal 2021 (under their employment agreements as in effect at that
time) by the Company pursuant to its termination right or by the executive with good reason.
The “option valuation” amount is (a) the difference between the $176.01 closing market price of shares of the Company’s common
stock on October 1, 2021 and the weighted average exercise price of options with an exercise price less than the market price times
(b) the number of options with in-the-money exercise prices that would become exercisable despite the termination. The “restricted
stock unit valuation” amount is the $176.01 closing market price on October 1, 2021, times the target number of units that could
vest. However, as described above, options do not become immediately exercisable and restricted stock units do not immediately vest
(and would eventually vest only to the extent applicable performance conditions are met) absent a change in control. The actual value
realized from the exercise of the options and the vesting of restricted stock units may therefore be more or less than the amount shown
below depending on changes in the market price of the Company’s common stock and the satisfaction of applicable performance
tests.

column of the “Fiscal 2021 Summary Compensation Table,” plus the lump sum payments based on salary through the end of the employment term
as described above.
TERMINATION FOR CAUSE
Each NEO’s employment agreement provides that, if the NEO’s employment is terminated by the Company for cause, the NEO will
only be eligible to receive the compensation earned and benefits vested through the date of termination, including any rights the NEO
may have under the NEO’s indemnification agreement with the Company or the equity plans of the Company.
“Termination for Cause” is defined in Mr. Iger’s employment agreement as termination by the Company due to (i) conviction of a
felony or the entering of a plea of nolo contendere to a felony charge; (ii) gross neglect, willful malfeasance or willful gross
misconduct in connection with his employment which has had a material adverse effect on the business of the Company, unless he
reasonably believed in good faith that such act or non-act was in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Company; (iii) his
substantial and continual refusal to perform his duties, responsibilities or obligations under the agreement that continues after receipt
of written notice identifying the duties, responsibilities or obligations not being performed; (iv) a violation that is not timely cured of
any Company policy that is generally applicable to all employees or all officers of the Company that he knows or reasonably should
know could reasonably be expected to result in a material adverse effect on the Company; (v) any failure (that is not timely cured) to
cooperate, if requested by the Board, with any investigation or inquiry into his or the Company’s business practices, whether internal
or external; or (vi) any material breach that is not timely cured of covenants relating to non-competition during the term of employment
and protection of the Company’s confidential information.
“Termination for Cause” is defined in Mr. Braverman’s, Ms. McCarthy’s, Mr. Chapek’s and Ms. Mucha’s employment agreements as
termination by the Company due to gross negligence, gross misconduct, willful nonfeasance or willful material breach of the
agreement by the executive unless, if the Company determines that the conduct or cause is curable, such conduct or cause is timely
cured by the executive.
EXPIRATION OF EMPLOYMENT TERM; RETIREMENT
Each of the NEOs is eligible to receive earned, unpaid salary and unconditionally vested accrued benefits (including continued
vesting of restricted stock units and vesting and exercisability of options awarded more than one year prior to retirement if they are
over 60 years of age with over 10 years of service) if the NEO’s employment terminates at the expiration of the NEO’s employment
agreement or the NEO otherwise retires, but except as described below they are not contractually entitled to any additional
compensation in this circumstance.
Following the termination of Mr. Iger’s employment at the expiration date, to enable the Company to have access to Mr. Iger’s unique
skills, knowledge and experience with regard to the media and entertainment business, Mr. Iger would serve as a consultant to the
Company for a period of five years. In this capacity, Mr. Iger would provide assistance, up to certain specified monthly and annual
maximum time commitments, on such matters as his successor as Chief Executive Officer may request from time to time. In consideration
of his consulting services, Mr. Iger will receive a quarterly fee of $500,000 for each of the quarters of this five-year period. For the five
years following termination of employment, the Company would also provide Mr. Iger with the same security services (other than the
personal use of a Company-provided or Company-leased aircraft) as it has made available to him as Chief Executive Officer.
Mr. Braverman’s, Ms. McCarthy’s, Ms. Mucha’s and Ms. Parker’s employment agreements each provide that the Chief Executive
Officer will recommend to the Compensation Committee an annual cash bonus for the fiscal year in which their respective
employment agreements end based on the executive’s contributions during that fiscal year. Per Mr. Chapek’s employment agreement,
the Compensation Committee will determine an annual cash bonus for the fiscal year in which his employment agreement ends based
on his contributions during that year.
As in the case of a termination under the Company’s termination right other than for cause or the executive’s right to terminate for good
reason, vested options and restricted stock units will remain exercisable for 18 months for executives eligible to receive retirement
benefits, and options and restricted stock units outstanding for at least one year will continue to vest, and options will remain
exercisable, for up to three or five years (depending on the original grant date) if the NEO was age 60 or greater and had at least ten
years of service at the date of retirement. In addition, if Mr. Iger retires at December 31, 2021, all options and restricted stock units
awarded to him after June 30, 2016, will, subject to the satisfaction of applicable performance criteria, continue to vest and in the case
of options, remain exercisable following his retirement according to their original vesting schedule and expiration date.
Pay Ratio
In accordance with SEC rules, we are providing the ratio of the annual total compensation of our Chief Executive Officer to the
annual total compensation of the Company’s median employee. The ratio is a reasonable estimate calculated in a manner consistent
with SEC rules and the methodology described below.
Per SEC rules, the Company is permitted to use the same median employee as was used in fiscal 2020, and the Company
determined that no change was needed to the median employee since there has been no change in the Company’s employee
compensation arrangements that we believe would significantly impact the pay ratio disclosure. Our methodology to confirm the
median employee is consistent with last year. We reviewed the annual base salary of the global workforce as of the last business day
of the fiscal year, October 2, 2021. Due to population size, we identified a band of employees with a base salary that approximates
the median base salary for the Company. The median base salary reflects a workforce with large populations of seasonal, part-time
and international employees working in multiple, distinct lines of business. We calculated the median employee’s total annual
compensation for fiscal 2021 (which consisted of an increase to base salary, overtime pay and the Company’s contribution to health
insurance premiums) and ensured the median employee’s compensation did not contain distortive compensation features (e.g.,
abnormal amounts of overtime, special premium pay or commissions/tips, etc.).
The median Disney employee works in a full-time hourly role in parks and has been with the Company for over ten years. For fiscal
2021, the median employee’s total annual compensation was $50,430. Mr. Chapek’s total annual compensation, including the
Company’s contribution to health insurance premiums (which are not included in the Fiscal 2021 Summary Compensation Table in
this proxy statement), was $32,484,148. The ratio of these amounts was 644:1.
Other Compensation Information

Risk Management Considerations
The Compensation Committee believes that the following features of performance-based bonus and equity programs appropriately
incentivize the creation of long-term shareholder value while discouraging behavior that could lead to excessive risk:
• Financial Performance Measures. The financial metrics used to determine the amount of an executive’s bonus are measures the
Committee believes drive long-term shareholder value. The ranges set for these measures are intended to reward success without
encouraging excessive risk-taking.
• Limit on Bonus. The overall bonus opportunity is not expected to exceed two times the target amount, no matter how much financial
performance exceeds the ranges established at the beginning of the fiscal year.
• Equity Vesting Periods. Performance-based stock units generally vest in three years. Time-based stock units and options vest
annually for up to four years and options remain exercisable for ten years. These periods are designed to reward sustained
performance over several periods, rather than performance in a single period.
• Equity Retention Guidelines. NEOs are required to acquire within five years of becoming an executive officer, and hold as long as
they are executive officers of the Company, shares (including restricted stock units) having a value of at least three times their base
salary amounts, or five times in the case of the Chief Executive Officer and Executive Chairman. If these levels have not been
reached, these officers are required to retain ownership of shares representing at least 75% of the net after-tax gain (100% in the
case of the Chief Executive Officer) realized on exercise of options for a minimum of twelve months. Based on holdings of units
and shares on January 10, 2022, each NEO then in office exceeded the minimum holding requirement on that date.
• No Hedging or Pledging. The Company’s insider trading compliance program prohibits members of the Board of Directors, NEOs
and all other employees subject to the Company’s insider trading compliance program from entering into any transaction designed
to hedge, or having the effect of hedging, the economic risk of owning the Company’s securities and prohibits certain persons,
including members of the Board of Directors and the NEOs, from pledging Company securities.
• Clawback Policy. If the Company is required to restate its financial results due to material noncompliance with financial reporting
requirements under the securities laws as a result of misconduct by an executive officer, applicable law permits the Company to
recover incentive compensation from that executive officer (including profits realized from the sale of Company securities). In
such a situation, the Board of Directors would exercise its business judgment to determine what action it believes is appropriate.
Action may include recovery or cancellation of any bonus or incentive payments made to an executive on the basis of having met
or exceeded performance targets during a period of fraudulent activity or a material misstatement of financial results if the Board
determines that such recovery or cancellation is appropriate due to intentional misconduct by the executive officer that resulted in
performance targets being achieved that would not have been achieved absent such misconduct. Under the 2011 Stock Incentive
Plan approved at the Company’s 2020 Annual Meeting, equity awards pursuant to the plan may be clawed back where there is
reputational or financial harm to the Company, even in the absence of a restatement.
Equity awards are made on dates the Compensation Committee meet. Committee meetings are normally scheduled well in advance
and are not scheduled with an eye to announcements of material information regarding the Company. The Committee may make an
award with an effective date in the future contingent on commencement of employment, execution of a new employment agreement or
some other subsequent event, or may act by unanimous written consent on the date of such an event when the proposed issuances
have been reviewed by the Committee prior to the date of the event.
At the Compensation Committee’s request, management conducted its annual assessment of the risk profile of our compensation
programs in November 2021. The assessment included an inventory of the compensation programs at each of the Company’s
segments and an evaluation of whether any program contained elements that created risks that could have a material adverse impact
on the Company. Management provided the results of this assessment to Pay Governance LLC, the Committee’s compensation
consultant, which evaluated the findings and reviewed them with the Committee. As a result of this review, the Committee determined
that the risks arising from the Company’s policies and practices are not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the
Company.
Peer Groups
SUMMARY OF PEER GROUPS
The following table summarizes the three distinct peer groups we use for three distinct purposes, described in more detail below:
FISCAL 2021
PEER GROUP PURPOSE COMPOSITION
Media Industry Peers Evaluating compensation levels for the NEOs Nine other major media companies
General Industry Peers Evaluating general compensation structure, 16 similarly-sized global companies with a
policies and practices consumer orientation and/or strong brand
recognition
Performance Peers Evaluating relative economic performance of S&P 500

the Company
MEDIA INDUSTRY PEERS
The Compensation Committee believes that there is a limited pool of talent with the set of creative and organizational skills needed to
run a global creative organization like the Company. The Committee also understands that executives with the background needed to
manage a company such as ours have career options with compensation opportunities that normally exceed those available in most
other industries, and that compensation levels within the peer group are driven by the dynamics of compensation in the entertainment
industry and not the ownership structure of a particular company. Accordingly, the market for executive talent to lead the Company,
and the group against which to compare our executive compensation, is best represented by the companies in our media industry
peer group. At the beginning of fiscal 2021, companies included in the media industry peer group consisted of Alphabet, Amazon,
Apple, AT&T, Comcast, Discovery, Meta Platforms, Netflix and ViacomCBS.
GENERAL INDUSTRY PEERS
The Compensation Committee believes that the features of the Company’s overall compensation structure, policies and practices
should normally be consistent for all executives. Because our operations span multiple industries, the Committee believes that a
consistent approach across the breadth of the Company’s operations with respect to features of our overall executive compensation
structure is best achieved by reference to a group of General Industry Peers that is broader than the Media Industry Peers.
The peer group used for establishing compensation structure, policies and practices consists of companies that have:
• A consumer orientation and/or strong brand recognition;
• A global presence and operations;
• Annual revenue no less than 40% and no more than two and a half times our annual revenue; and
• As a general matter, a market capitalization in the range of approximately one-quarter to four times our market capitalization;
• Plus companies that do not meet the revenue or market cap test, but that are included in the peer groups used by one or more of
the Media Industry Peers.
The companies that met these criteria and were included at the beginning of fiscal 2021 in our “General Industry Peers” group were:
• Alphabet • Comcast • Netflix
• Amazon.com • Discovery • Oracle
• Apple • IBM • Verizon Communications
• AT&T • Intel • ViacomCBS
• Charter Communications • Meta Platforms
• Cisco Systems • Microsoft
PERFORMANCE PEERS
The overall financial performance of the Company is driven by the Company’s diverse businesses, which compete in multiple sectors
of the overall market. The Compensation Committee believes that, given the span of the Company’s businesses, the best measure of
relative performance is how the Company’s diverse businesses have fared in the face of the economic trends that impact companies
in the overall market and that the best benchmark for measuring such success is the Company’s relative performance compared to
that of the companies comprising the S&P 500. Accordingly, the Committee has selected the S&P 500 to set the context for evaluating
the Company’s performance and to measure relative performance for performance-based restricted stock unit awards.
Deductibility of Compensation
For taxable years commencing after 2017, Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code generally disallows a tax deduction to
public corporations for compensation over $1 million paid to any person whose compensation was required to be included in the
Company proxy statement for any fiscal year after 2016 because such person was either the Company’s Chief Executive Officer or
Chief Financial Officer or was one the Company’s three other most highly compensated executive officers for such fiscal year.
Accordingly, to the extent that compensation in excess of $1 million is payable to any such person in any fiscal year after fiscal
2018, such excess amount is likely to be non-deductible by the Company for federal income tax purposes. However, Section 162(m)
exempts qualifying performance-based compensation paid after fiscal 2018 pursuant to a binding written agreement in effect on
November 2, 2017. Thus, performance-based awards that were outstanding on that date or awarded thereafter pursuant to a
binding written agreement can be exempt from the deduction limit if applicable requirements are met. For fiscal 2021, Ms. Parker’s
employment contract was in place without amendment from prior to November 2, 2017.
Awards to executive officers under the annual performance-based bonus program and the long-term incentive program that were
(i) granted prior to November 2, 2017, or (ii) may continue to qualify for the exemption because they are granted pursuant to a
binding written agreement in effect on such date, have been or will be made payable or vest subject to achievement of a
performance test based on adjusted net income in order to qualify for the exemption from Section 162(m), to the extent available. If
this test is satisfied, the additional performance tests described in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis are applied to determine
the actual payout of such bonuses and awards, which in order to remain deductible may not be more than the maximum level funded
based on achievement of the Section 162(m) test. Adjusted net income means net income adjusted, as appropriate, to exclude the
following items or variances: change in accounting principles; acquisitions; dispositions of a business; asset impairments; restructuring
charges; extraordinary, unusual or infrequent items; and extraordinary litigation costs and insurance recoveries. For fiscal 2021, the
adjusted net income (loss) target was ($3.9 billion), and the Company achieved adjusted net income of $4.2 billion. Net income was
adjusted to account for international channels goodwill and intangible impairment charges, transaction purchase accounting,
restructuring and impairment charges, discontinued operations, closures at Disney Parks, Experiences and Products and the gain on
sale of equity investments.
Therefore, the Section 162(m) test was satisfied with respect to restricted stock units vesting based on fiscal 2021 results.
Compensation Committee Report

The Compensation Committee has:
(1) reviewed and discussed the Compensation Discussion and Analysis included in this proxy statement with management; and
(2) based on this review and discussion, recommended to the Board of Directors that the Compensation Discussion and Analysis be
included in the Company’s proxy statement relating to the 2022 Annual Meeting of shareholders.

Audit-Related Matters
Audit Committee Report
The charter of the Audit Committee of the Board specifies that the purpose of the committee is to assist the Board in its oversight of:
• the integrity of the Company’s financial statements;
• the adequacy of the Company’s system of internal controls;
• the Company’s compliance with legal and regulatory requirements;
• the qualifications and independence of the Company’s independent registered public accountants;
• the performance of the Company’s independent registered public accountants and of the Company’s internal audit function; and
• to prepare this audit committee report as required by the Securities and Exchange Commission.
In carrying out these responsibilities, the Audit Committee, among other things:
• monitors preparation of quarterly and annual financial reports by the Company’s management;
• supervises the relationship between the Company and its independent registered public accountants, including: having direct
responsibility for their appointment; evaluation of their qualifications, performance and independence; compensation; when
necessary, termination of engagement; and preapproval of the scope and extent of their audit and non-audit services; and
• oversees management’s implementation and maintenance of effective systems of internal and disclosure controls, including review
of the Company’s policies relating to legal and regulatory compliance, ethics and conflicts of interests and review of the
Company’s internal auditing program.
The Committee met 7 times during fiscal 2021. The Committee schedules its meetings with a view to ensuring that it devotes
appropriate attention to all of its tasks. The Committee’s meetings include, whenever appropriate, executive sessions in which the
Committee meets separately with the Company’s independent registered public accountants, the Company’s internal auditor, the
Company’s Chief Financial Officer and the Company’s General Counsel.
As part of its oversight of the Company’s financial statements, the Committee reviews and discusses with both management and the
Company’s independent registered public accountants all annual and quarterly financial statements prior to their issuance and other
financial disclosures as appropriate. During fiscal 2021, management advised the Committee that each set of financial statements
reviewed had been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and management reviewed significant
accounting and disclosure issues with the Committee. These reviews included discussion with PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, the
Company’s independent registered public accountants, of matters required to be discussed pursuant to applicable requirements of the
Public Company Accounting Oversight Board and the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the quality of the Company’s
accounting policies, the reasonableness of significant judgments and the clarity of disclosures in the financial statements. The
Committee also discussed with PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP the independence of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP and related matters,
including a review of audit and non-audit fees and the written disclosures and the letter from PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP to the
Committee pursuant to applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding the independent
accountants’ communications with the Audit Committee concerning independence.
In addition, the Committee reviewed key initiatives and programs aimed at maintaining the effectiveness of the Company’s internal
and disclosure control structure. As part of this process, the Committee continued to monitor the scope and adequacy of the
Company’s internal auditing program, reviewing internal audit department staffing levels and steps taken to maintain the effectiveness
of internal procedures and controls.
Taking all of these reviews and discussions into account, the undersigned Committee members recommended to the Board that the
Board approve the inclusion of the Company’s audited financial statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
fiscal year ended October 2, 2021, for filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

AUDIT-RELATED MATTERS
Policy for Approval of Audit and Permitted Non-Audit Services

All audit, audit-related, tax and other services were pre-approved by the Audit Committee, which concluded that the provision of such
services by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP was compatible with the maintenance of that firm’s independence in the conduct of its
auditing functions. The Audit Committee’s Outside Auditor Independence Policy provides for pre-approval of specifically described
audit, audit-related, tax and other services by the Committee on an annual basis, but individual engagements anticipated to exceed
pre-established thresholds must be separately approved. The policy also requires specific approval by the Committee if total fees for
audit-related, tax and other services would exceed total fees for audit services in any fiscal year. The policy authorizes the Committee
to delegate to one or more of its members pre-approval authority with respect to permitted services, and the Committee has delegated
to the Chair of the Committee the authority to pre-approve services in certain circumstances.
Auditor Fees and Services

The following table presents fees for professional services rendered by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP for the audit of the Company’s
annual financial statements and internal control over financial reporting for fiscal 2021 and fiscal 2020, together with fees for audit-
related, tax and other services rendered by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP during fiscal 2021 and fiscal 2020. Audit-related services
consisted principally of audits and agreed upon procedures of other entities related to the Company, viewership rankings and other
attest projects, and consultations on the impact of new accounting rules. Tax services consisted principally of planning and advisory
services and tax compliance assistance. Other services consisted of out-of-pocket expenses. The Audit Committee directs and reviews
the negotiations associated with the Company’s retention of its independent registered public accountants.

Items to Be Voted On
Election of Directors
The current term of office of all of the Company’s Directors expires at the 2022 Annual Meeting. The Board proposes that the
following eleven directors be elected for a term of one year and until their successors are duly elected and qualified: Robert A.
Chapek, Susan E. Arnold, Mary T. Barra, Safra A. Catz, Amy L. Chang, Francis A. deSouza, Michael B.G. Froman, Maria Elena
Lagomasino, Calvin R. McDonald, Mark G. Parker and Derica W. Rice. See the section of this proxy statement titled “Corporate
Governance and Board Matters—The Board of Directors” for more information about the skills, qualifications, attributes and
experiences that caused the Board to determine that these nominees should serve as directors.
Each nominee has consented to serve if elected. If any nominee becomes unavailable to serve as a Director before the 2022 Annual
Meeting, the Board may designate a substitute nominee. In that case, the persons named as proxies will vote for the substitute
nominee designated by the Board.
Directors are elected by a majority of votes cast unless the election is contested, in which case Directors are elected by a plurality of
votes cast. A majority of votes cast means that the number of shares voted “for” a Director exceeds the number of votes cast “against”
the Director; abstentions are not counted either “for” or “against.” If an incumbent Director in an uncontested election does not
receive a majority of votes cast for such incumbent’s election, the Director is required to submit a letter of resignation to the Board of
Directors for consideration by the Governance and Nominating Committee. The Governance and Nominating Committee is required
to promptly assess the appropriateness of such nominee continuing to serve as a Director and recommend to the Board the action to
be taken with respect to the tendered resignation. The Board is required to determine whether to accept or reject the resignation, or
what other action should be taken, within 90 days of the date of the certification of election results. Brokers holding shares
beneficially owned by their clients do not have the ability to cast votes with respect to the election of Directors unless they have
received instructions from the beneficial owner of the shares.
It is therefore important that you provide instructions to your broker if your shares are held by a
broker so that your vote with respect to Directors is counted.
The Board recommends a vote ‘‘FOR’’ each of the persons nominated by the Board.
ITEMS TO BE VOTED ON
Ratification of Appointment of Independent Registered Public Accountants

The Audit Committee of the Board has concluded that the continued retention of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP is in the best interests of
the Company and its shareholders and appointed PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as the Company’s independent registered public
accountants for the fiscal year ending October 1, 2022. Services provided to the Company and its subsidiaries by
PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP in fiscal 2021 are described under the section titled “Audit-Related Matters — Auditor Fees and
Services” above.
PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP has been the Company’s external auditor continuously since 1938. The Audit Committee evaluates the
independent registered public accountant’s qualifications, performance, audit plan, fees and independence each year, and
considered these factors in connection with the determination to appoint PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP for fiscal 2022. In addition to
assuring the regular rotation of the lead audit partner every five years as required by SEC rules, one or more members of the Audit
Committee also meets with candidates for the lead audit partner and the Committee discusses the appointment before rotation occurs.
We are asking our shareholders to ratify the selection of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as our independent registered public
accountants. Although ratification is not required by our Bylaws or otherwise, the Board is submitting the selection of
PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP to our shareholders for ratification as a matter of good corporate practice.
Representatives of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP will be present at the annual meeting to respond to appropriate questions and to
make such statements as they may desire.
The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of shares represented in person or by proxy and entitled to vote on this item will be
required for approval. Abstentions will be counted as represented and entitled to vote and will therefore have the effect of a negative
vote.
The Board recommends that shareholders vote “FOR” ratification of the appointment of
PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accountants for
fiscal 2022.
In the event shareholders do not ratify the appointment, the appointment will be reconsidered by the Audit Committee and the Board.
Even if the selection is ratified, the Audit Committee may in its discretion select a different registered public accounting firm at any
time during the year if it determines that such a change would be in the best interests of the Company and our shareholders.
Advisory Vote on Executive Compensation

As we do each year, and as required by Section 14A of the Securities Exchange Act, we are seeking advisory shareholder approval
of the compensation of NEOs as disclosed in the section of this proxy statement titled “Executive Compensation.” Shareholders are
being asked to vote on the following advisory resolution:
Resolved, that the shareholders advise that they approve the compensation of the Company’s NEOs, as disclosed pursuant to the
compensation disclosure rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (which disclosure shall include the Compensation
Discussion and Analysis, the compensation tables, other compensation information and any related material).
The compensation of our executive officers is based on a design that aims to align pay with both the attainment of annual strategic
and financial goals, which the Compensation Committee establishes, and sustained long-term value creation. The design of our
compensation program is detailed in the section of this proxy statement titled “Executive Compensation — Compensation Discussion
and Analysis,” and the decisions made by the Compensation Committee under that program for fiscal 2021 are summarized in the
section of this proxy statement titled “Proxy Summary” and described in detail in “Executive Compensation — Compensation
Discussion and Analysis.” Shareholders should read these sections before deciding how to vote on this proposal.
Although the vote is non-binding, the Board and the Compensation Committee will review the voting results in connection with their
ongoing evaluation of the Company’s compensation program. Broker non-votes (as described under “Information About Voting and
the Meeting — Voting”) are not entitled to vote on this proposal and will not be counted in evaluating the results of the vote.
The Board of Directors recommends a vote “FOR” advisory approval of the resolution set forth
above.
Shareholder Proposals
The Company has been notified that five shareholders of the Company each intend to present a proposal for consideration at the
annual meeting. The shareholders making these proposals have presented the proposals and supporting statements set forth below, and
we are presenting the proposals and the supporting statements as they were submitted to us. While we take issue with certain of the
statements contained in the proposals and the supporting statements, we have limited our response to the most important points and
have not attempted to address all the statements with which we disagree. The names of co-filing proponents, if any, and address and
stock ownership of all proponents will be furnished by the Company’s Secretary to any person, orally or in writing as requested,
promptly upon receipt of any oral or written request.
The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of shares represented in person or by proxy and entitled to vote on the proposals will
be required for approval of the proposals. Abstentions will be counted as represented and entitled to vote and will have the effect of
a negative vote on the proposals. Broker non-votes (as described under the section titled “Information About Voting and the
Meeting — Voting”) will not be considered entitled to vote on the proposals and will not be counted in determining the number of
shares necessary for approval of the proposals. The shareholder proposals will be voted on at the annual meeting only if properly
presented by or on behalf of the proponents.
Proposal — Lobbying Disclosure

Mercy Investment Services, Inc. and multiple co-filers have notified the Company that they intend to present the following proposal for
consideration at the annual meeting.
Whereas, we believe in full disclosure of Disney’s lobbying activities and expenditures to assess whether Disney’s lobbying is
consistent with Disney’s expressed goals and in shareholder interests.
Resolved, the shareholders of Disney request the preparation of a report, updated annually, disclosing:
1. Company policy and procedures governing lobbying, both direct and indirect, and grassroots lobbying communications.
2. Payments by Disney used for (a) direct or indirect lobbying or (b) grassroots lobbying communications, in each case
including the amount of the payment and the recipient.
3. Description of management’s decision-making process and the Board’s oversight for making payments described above.
For purposes of this proposal, a “grassroots lobbying communication” is a communication directed to the general public that (a) refers
to specific legislation or regulation, (b) reflects a view on the legislation or regulation and (c) encourages the recipient of the
communication to take action with respect to the legislation or regulation. “Indirect lobbying” is lobbying engaged in by a trade
association or other organization of which Disney is a member.
Both “direct and indirect lobbying” and “grassroots lobbying communications” include efforts at the local, state and federal levels.
The report shall be presented to the Governance and Nominating Committee and posted on Disney’s website.
SUPPORTING STATEMENT
Disney spent $42,965,000 from 2010-2020 on federal lobbying. This does not include state lobbying expenditures, where
Disney also lobbies but disclosure is uneven or absent. For example, Disney spent $4,021,464 on lobbying in California from 2010-
2020, and Disney’s lobbying in Florida has been described as “the 800-pound mouse.”1 And Disney also lobbies abroad, spending
between €800,000-899,999 on lobbying in Europe for 2020.
Companies can give unlimited amounts to third party groups that spend millions on lobbying and often undisclosed grassroots
activity, and these groups may be spending “at least double what’s publicly reported.”2 Disney belongs to the Business Roundtable
and Chamber of Commerce, which together have spent over $2 billion on federal lobbying since 1998, and the RATE Coalition, a
social welfare organization. Disney’s memberships have drawn attention as these groups launched a “massive lobbying blitz” against
raising corporate taxes.3
1 https://www.politico.com/magazine/story/2015/06/what-works-orlando-disney-politics-119167.
2 https://theintercept.com/2019/08/06/business-group-spending-on-lobbying-in-washington-is-at-least-double-whats-publicly-reported/.
3 https://www.washingtonpost.com/us-policy/2021/08/31/business-lobbying-democrats-reconciliation/.
Disney’s disclosure is incomplete for trade associations, failing to disclose a top limit for its payments, and omitting social welfare
organizations. Shareholders cannot tell the magnitude of Disney’s trade association payments over $500,000. And Disney fails to
disclose its payments to the RATE Coalition and other social welfare organizations that lobby.
We are concerned that Disney’s lack of disclosure presents reputational risk when its lobbying contradicts company public
positions. For example, Disney signed a statement opposing state voter restrictions, yet the Chamber lobbied against the For the
People Act.4 Disney supported the Paris climate agreement, yet the Chamber opposed it. And while Disney has drawn negative
attention for avoiding federal income taxes,5 its trade associations are lobbying against raising corporate taxes to fund health care,
education and safety net programs.
Board Recommendation
The Board recommends that you vote against this proposal.
This is the seventh year this proposal has been presented, and it has failed to obtain majority support in any of its prior submissions.
The disagreement here is not over enhancing disclosure of the Company’s policies and involvement in the political and lobbying
process, but the details of how it should be achieved.
In direct response to shareholder feedback requesting enhanced disclosure, from the proponent here and others, the Company has
previously enhanced its lobbying disclosure by expanding its scope and more clearly articulating its policy — Political Giving and
Participation in the Formulation of Public Policy in the United States — which can be found on our Company website.
These enhancements include annual disclosure of information regarding our membership in U.S.-based industry and trade
associations, the annual dues the Company paid to these trade associations, and the percentage each trade association has
indicated to us was used for lobbying activities, all of which can be found via a link from the policy.
These enhancements are in addition to the significant disclosure regarding political and lobbying activities the Company continues to
provide:
• We disclose details of our contributions to candidates for office on a semi-annual basis on the Company’s website.
• We provide reports that detail the issues the Company lobbied on, the houses of Congress and federal agencies lobbied,
the total amounts expended during each calendar quarter on lobbying activities, and the portion of any trade association
payments that are used for lobbying as disclosed to the Company by the trade associations, all of which are readily
available in filings with the U.S. House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate and in the extensive lobbying disclosure
reports we file, highlighting lobbying activity for individual states.
As a result of these measures, the Company continues to be recognized as one of the leaders for political disclosure and practices
among S&P 500 companies. In 2021, 2020 and 2019, the Center for Political Accountability Zicklin Index of Corporate Political
Disclosure and Accountability, which benchmarks the political disclosure and accountability policies and practices of leading U.S.
public companies, recognized the quality of our disclosure and practices and ranked the Company among the First Tier of S&P 500
companies.
For all these reasons, we believe that the additional measures sought by the proponents would not be an efficient use of resources.
Accordingly, the Board recommends that you vote “AGAINST” this proposal, and if the proposal
is presented, your proxy will be voted against this proposal unless you specify otherwise.

Proposal — Special Meeting Threshold

Kenneth Steiner has notified the Company that he intends to present the following proposal for consideration at the annual meeting.
Proposal 5—Special Shareholder Meeting Improvement
Shareholder
FOR
Rights
Shareowners ask our board to take the steps necessary to amend the appropriate company governing documents to give the
owners of a combined 10% of our outstanding common stock the power to call a special shareowner meeting.
Disney currently has one of the highest stock ownership thresholds to call a special meeting—25% of shares. This 25% of shares
translates into 38% of the Disney shares that normally vote at our annual meeting. It would be hopeless to expect that Disney
shareholders, who do not even vote, would go out of their way to take the special procedural steps to ask for a special shareholder
meeting.
On top of the high 25% stock ownership requirement, that translates into 38% of shares that vote at the annual meeting, is the
fact that all shares not held for one continuous year are 100% disqualified from formally participating in the call for a special
shareholder meeting.
Thus the shareholders who own 38% of shares held for one continuous year could determine that they hold 51% of shares that
typically vote at the annual meeting when their shares held for less than one continuous year are included.
In contrast to this potential 51% stock ownership threshold to call a special shareholder meeting, we need the more reasonable
stock ownership threshold called for in this proposal.
Special meetings allow shareholders to vote on important matters, such as electing new directors with special expertise or
independence that may be lacking in our current directors as was the case with the 3 new Exxon directors supported by Engine
No. 1 hedge fund in 2021.
Our management is best served by providing the means for 10% of shareholders, who have special expertise, to bring emerging
opportunities or solutions to problems to the attention of management and all shareholders.
Also shareholder engagement is a toothless way to introduce new ideas to management. And management can abruptly
discontinue or drastically restructure any shareholder engagement program if it fails to give mostly cheerleading support to
management. Plus we have a loophole-riddled policy for an independent board chairman which can thwart another means to bring
new ideas to management.
Please vote yes:

Special Shareholder Meeting Improvement—Proposal 5
The Company already provides a meaningful and balanced right for shareholders to call a special meeting and the proposed
decrease in the percentage of shares required to call a special meeting is neither necessary nor in the best interests of the Company
and its shareholders.
The Company currently provides that shareholders holding in aggregate at least 25% of the outstanding shares of the Company’s
common stock on a “net long” basis may request a special meeting. A 25% threshold, which is common among public companies,
strikes an appropriate balance between avoiding an imprudent use of Company and shareholder resources to address the special
interests of a select group of shareholders, while at the same time ensuring that shareholders holding a meaningful minority of our
outstanding shares have a mechanism to call a special meeting if they deem it appropriate.
Special meetings require the expenditure of considerable time, effort and resources, including significant costs in legal and
administrative fees, costs for preparing, printing and distributing materials and soliciting proxies, and diversion of Board and
management time away from overseeing and running our business. Accordingly, special meetings should be limited to circumstances
where shareholders holding a meaningful minority of the Company’s common stock believe a matter is sufficiently urgent or
extraordinary to justify considering such matters between annual meetings. By reducing the ownership threshold to 10%, a small
minority of shareholders could use the special meeting mechanism to advance their own more narrow agenda, without regard to the
broader interests of the Company and its other shareholders.
Nor is such a measure necessary to enable the views of particular shareholders to be expressed. The Company maintains a robust
shareholder engagement program with a track record of taking action in direct response to shareholder feedback. Along with strong
corporate governance practices, including a proxy access provision and annual director elections with majority voting, this provides
our shareholders with numerous avenues to make their views known and to communicate with the Board, management, and other
shareholders to effect change. We encourage and facilitate regular communication with large and small shareholders about
important issues relating to our business and governance and regularly incorporate feedback from those engagements into our
governing documents, policies, and practices. In calendar 2021, our Investor Relations team and/or the Board, including members of
the Compensation Committee, spoke with 15 of our top 20 shareholders, including 9 of the top 10, and contacted approximately
85% of our largest 50 shareholders, seeking input on compensation and governance matters.
Proposal — Human Rights Due Diligence Report

National Legal and Policy Center has notified the Company that they intend to present the following proposal for consideration at the
annual meeting.
Resolved: Shareholders request that, beginning in 2022, Disney report on the process of due diligence, if any, that the Company
undertakes in evaluating the human rights impacts of its business and associations with foreign entities, including foreign
governments, their agencies, and private sector intermediaries.
Disney became the center of controversy in 2020 when it was reported that the film credits for Mulan offered “special thanks” to
eight Chinese government entities in Xinjiang province. Both the Biden and Trump administrations have formally characterized the
Chinese government’s policy toward the Uyghur minority in Xinjiang as “genocide.”
The credits also expressed thanks to the publicity department of CPC Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomy Region Committee, the Chinese
Communist party’s propaganda agency in Xinjiang.
According to the September 3, 2020 Wall Street Journal, “Disney shared the script with Chinese authorities,” prior to receiving
permission to release the film in China.
Mulan’s titular character was played by Chinese-American actress Liu Yifei, who in 2019, expressed support for the police
crackdown on pro-democracy protesters in Hong Kong.
In an October 7, 2020 letter to British legislators, Sean Bailey, President of Walt Disney Studios Motion Picture Production,
stated:
“In any motion picture production, several factors are considered when making decisions about where to produce the film,
including: economics, logistics, accessibility, availability of actors, to name just a few.”
Notably absent was how a production might impact human rights. If one were to “name just a few” factors, it would seem that
human rights would be paramount, especially in parts of the world like Xinjiang Province, China.
Information on Disney’s due diligence on human rights, or lack thereof, would allow shareholders to better evaluate business and
reputational risks inherent in cooperation with totalitarian and authoritarian regimes that violate human rights.
The report requested in the proposal rests on a misplaced premise with respect to the Company’s existing commitment to human rights
and is thus neither a necessary nor productive use of the Company’s resources.
The Company is deeply committed to operating in an ethical manner that respects human rights and such considerations are already
included in its business decisions, including film production.
This commitment is reflected in a number of policies, which are available on the Company’s website, that address how the Company
conducts business, including our:
• Human Rights Policy Statement, which outlines the Company’s commitment to conducting business in an ethical and responsible
manner, both internally and with the third parties the Company does business with, and explicitly prohibits forced labor in our
direct operations and value chains. These policies are further addressed in our corporate-wide Standards of Business Conduct on
which employees are regularly trained. The Company supports international principles aimed at protecting and promoting human
rights, as described in the United Nations’ Universal Declaration on Human Rights and the International Labour Organization’s
(“ILO”) Declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work.
• Code of Conduct for Manufacturers and International Labor Standards program, which sets forth labor standards and working
conditions requirements for manufacturers of products using the Company’s intellectual property. The principles embodied in the
Code of Conduct for Manufacturers and ILS program are designed to be consistent with the ILO Declaration on Fundamental
Principles and Rights at Work. The Company implements this commitment through a dedicated compliance program that
communicates expectations to its licensing and sourcing partners, monitors factory working conditions, implements facility
improvement plans where necessary and engages with stakeholders.
• Modern Slavery Transparency Statements, including the Australia Modern Slavery Act Statement, California Transparency in
Supply Chains Act Statement and UK Modern Slavery Act Transparency Statement, which outline the practices and processes the
Company has in place to help ensure that any form of slavery, human trafficking, forced labor or other similar work environments
do not occur either in its own operations or those of its suppliers.
As set out in further detail in the Company’s Human Rights Policy statement, the Company’s commitment to respect human rights is a
core value of all businesses within the Company, and the Company takes active steps to reflect that commitment in our everyday
activities. The Company reports on its principles and performance in periodic reports to its Board, and in its periodic Corporate
Social Responsibility reports available on the Company’s website. The Company also employs staff with expertise in labor standards,
social compliance auditing, and human rights policy and risk assessment and provides training on the requirements of our program.
In making business decisions, including with regard to locations for film production, the Company engages in a thorough analysis of
a number of complex considerations, including with regard to human rights. We also keep our policies and practices relating to
human rights under continuous review, recognizing the need to stay vigilant in a rapidly changing and challenging world. We
investigate any allegations related to human rights and develop an appropriate course of action based on our findings.
In support of all of these efforts, we place special value on our ongoing collaboration with a broad range of interested constituencies,
including socially responsible investors, industry and peer groups; governmental, inter-governmental and non-governmental
organizations; advocacy groups; and concerned individuals. This broad engagement helps keep us sensitive to the potential
impacts—positive and negative—of our products, services and operations on the rights, interests and well-being of our employees,
guests, customers and communities around the world and we take this engagement into account when making business decisions.
Proposal — Pay Equity Report

Anne Butterfield has notified the Company that she intends to present the following proposal for consideration at the annual meeting.
Whereas: Pay inequities persist across race and gender and pose substantial risk to companies and society at large. Black workers’
hourly median earnings currently represent 64 percent of white wages. The median income for women working full time is 83 percent
that of men. Intersecting race, Black women make 63 cents, Native women 60 cents, and Latina women 55 cents. At the current rate,
women will not reach pay equity until 2059, Black women until 2130, and Latina women until 2224.
Citigroup estimates closing minority and gender wage gaps 20 years ago could have generated 12 trillion dollars in additional
income. PwC estimates closing the gender pay gap could boost Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD)
countries’ economies by 2 trillion dollars annually.
Actively managing pay equity is associated with improved representation and diversity is linked to superior stock performance and
return on equity. Black employees represent 8 percent of Disney’s workforce, but only 5 percent of executive leadership. Women
account for 51 percent of Disney’s workforce and 42 percent of executive leadership.
Pay gaps are literally defined as the median pay of minorities and women compared to the median pay of non-minorities and men.
Median gaps are considered the valid way of measuring gender pay inequity by the United States Census Bureau, Department of
Labor, OECD, and International Labor Organization.
Best practice pay equity reporting consists of two parts:
1. unadjusted median pay gaps, assessing equal opportunity to high paying roles,
2. statistically adjusted gaps, assessing whether minorities and non-minorities, men and women, are paid the same for similar
roles.
Disney does not report its unadjusted or adjusted pay gaps. Over 20 percent of the 100 largest employers currently report statistically
adjusted gaps. An increasing number of companies also disclose unadjusted median pay gaps, as they more fully address the
structural bias women and minorities face regarding job opportunity and pay.
The United Kingdom mandates disclosure of median gender pay gaps and is considering race and ethnicity reporting. Disney
reported a 12 percent median base pay gap and 25 percent bonus gap for United Kingdom employees.
Resolved: Shareholders request Disney report on both median and adjusted pay gaps across race and gender, including associated
policy, reputational, competitive, and operational risks, and risks related to recruiting and retaining diverse talent. The report should
be prepared at reasonable cost, omitting proprietary information, litigation strategy and legal compliance information.
Racial/gender pay gaps are defined as the difference between non-minority and minority/male and female median earnings
expressed as a percentage of non-minority/male earnings (Wikipedia/OECD, respectively).
An annual report adequate for investors to assess performance could, with board discretion, integrate base, bonus and equity
compensation to calculate:
• percentage median and adjusted gender pay gap, globally and/or by country, where appropriate
• percentage median and adjusted racial/minority/ethnicity pay gap, US and/or by country, where appropriate
The Board’s quarrel with the proposal is not its focus – as the Company is fully committed to achieving pay equity – but whether it is a
necessary and effective use of Company resources given the policies, practices and reporting that the Company already has in place
to achieve that end. Given the many ongoing initiatives that the Company is already pursuing to promote opportunity and equity, the
Board believes it is not.
One of the Company’s bedrock goals, as reflected in our Standards of Business Conduct, is to maintain a workplace that reflects
open opportunity, where an individual’s success is defined by their potential. We believe that employees should receive equal pay for
equal work, regardless of gender, race or ethnicity, and we are committed to compensating our employees fairly and equitably and
to promoting gender and racial diversity and inclusion in our leadership ranks and broader workforce.
We fulfill this commitment proactively when setting pay. Specifically, we establish the components and ranges of compensation based
on market and benchmark data and, within this framework, strive to pay all employees equitably, taking into consideration factors
such as role, function, market data, internal equity, job location, relevant experience and individual, business unit and company
performance. In addition, we regularly review our compensation practices to assess compensation decisions for our workforce as a
whole and for individual employees. With a workforce of approximately 190,000 employees worldwide across a diverse set of
industries, identifying specific instances of potentially inequitable pay is a complex task to which we are committed. When identified,
potential instances of inequitable pay are addressed as appropriate.
The Company also has established strong Board oversight and governance of our compensation practices to support the objective of
ensuring fair and equitable pay. In direct response to feedback received during shareholder engagement, in fiscal 2021 the Board
delegated oversight of workforce equity matters to the Compensation Committee and the Company’s Human Resources group and the
General Counsel report on these matters at least annually to the Committee.
The Company’s commitment in this area is part and parcel of its key human capital management objective – to attract, retain and
develop the highest quality talent. To this end, the Company has a number of contributing programs and initiatives, in particular
around diversity, equity and inclusion (“DEI”). In addition, the Company’s Chief Diversity Officer reports to the Board on DEI at least
annually.
For more information regarding our DEI programs and initiatives, see the section of our proxy statement titled “Proxy Summary –
Commitment to Diversity, Equity & Inclusion.”
Lastly, the Company already reports on our workforce representation diversity and, to provide greater transparency, we have
published our U.S. Employer Equal Opportunity data for calendar 2019 and 2020 and published our Diversity Dashboard data on
our Company website.
Given the commitment to pay equity that already exists and the extensive ongoing work to achieve it, we do not believe that the
requested reporting on median and adjusted pay gaps across race and gender is a practical or useful supplement to our existing
efforts. This is particularly so given the global nature of our workforce. For example, an unadjusted median pay statistic does not
account for factors such as cost of living, job function and level, labor force participation rates, country currency and geography that
impact differences in compensation. In sum, we believe that the Company’s policies, practices and reporting are more appropriate
for evaluating pay equity in our workforces and more effective for driving accountability and action than the report requested by the
proposal.
Proposal — Workplace Non-Discrimination Audit

National Center for Public Policy Research has notified the Company that they intend to present the following proposal for
consideration at the annual meeting.
RESOLVED: Shareholders of The Walt Disney Company (“Disney” or “Company”) request that the Board of Directors commission a
workplace non-discrimination audit analyzing Disney’s impacts, including the impacts arising from Disney-sponsored or -promoted
employee training, on civil rights and non-discrimination in the workplace, and the impacts of those issues on Disney’s business. A
report on the audit, prepared at reasonable cost and omitting confidential or proprietary information, should be publicly disclosed on
Disney’s website.
Tremendous public attention has focused recently on workplace practices and employee training. All rhetorically agree that
employee success should be fostered and that no employees should face discrimination, many are concerned that discrimination is
pervasive.
Concern stretches across the ideological spectrum. Some have pressured companies to adopt “anti-racism” programs that seek to
establish “racial equity,” which appears to mean the distribution of pay and authority on the basis of race, sex, orientation and ethnic
categories rather than on the basis of merit.1 The adoption of such programs, though, demonstrates that these “anti-racist” programs
are themselves deeply racist and otherwise discriminatory.2
Many companies have been found to be sponsoring and promoting overtly and implicitly discriminatory employee-training
programs, including Bank of America, American Express, Verizon, Pfizer, CVS, and many others.3
Disney has been similarly engaged, raising widespread concern that the Company discriminates on the basis of race and other
metrics. In Disney-branded and -sponsored employee-training materials, the word “white,” designating the white race, remains in
lowercase, while “black,” designating the black race, is capitalized. White employees are told, “[d]o not question or debate Black
colleagues’ lived experience.”4 They are not, meanwhile, encouraged to share their own indisputable lived experiences, but only to
“[a]cknowledge and listen with empathy.”5
The programming explicitly declares that at Disney “It’s Equity, not Equality.”
Inequal treatment is discrimination.
This discriminatory instruction and treatment is not limited to a single employee-training program, but has become endemic
throughout Disney.6 This places our Company at significant reputational, legal and financial risk. Under the United States Constitution
and laws, discrimination by race, sex and other categories is forbidden regardless of which groups are discriminated against. And a
company that actively discriminates against the viewpoints of vast swathes of the American population creates needless reputational,
financial, statutory and regulatory risks as well. Thoughtful study and deep remediation are required.

In creating its report, the Board is encouraged to assess whether Company employee-training programs treat any employees or
class of employees as inferior to any others, as by overt or implicit signals that some employees or groups of employees will be
offered additional mentoring or support programs denied to other employees on suspect grounds; that some employees will receive
non-merit-related preferential treatment in hiring or promotion; or that some employees are encouraged to speak about their lived
experiences and feelings – including their impressions of the employee-training itself – while others are constrained.
The proponent mischaracterizes the Company’s commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion and the means by which it seeks to
achieve those ends. This proposal also does not specifically call for enhanced disclosures or practices to improve the workplace for
females or underrepresented minorities. Contrary to the proponent’s thesis, the Company is fully committed to providing a work
environment in which everyone is afforded the dignity and respect that they deserve. The Company does not allow any form of
harassment or discrimination on the basis of race, religion, color, sex, sexual orientation, gender identification, national origin, age,
marital status, covered veteran status, disability, pregnancy or any other basis prohibited by applicable law.
In parallel, the Company embraces and seeks to foster a diverse and inclusive workforce. The Company and its shareholders benefit
from nurturing the talents of every employee and the unique perspectives they can offer in the development of our creative output,
products and services. To that end, we:
• Seek to attract and develop a workforce that reflects the guests and customers, business partners, shareholders, labor
markets and communities in which we do business;
• Offer opportunities for professional development and advancement, in a manner consistent with individual abilities; and
• Maintain a workplace that offers open opportunities to all, recognizing individuals for their experience, performance,
training, work history and potential.
To support these objectives, the Company’s human resources programs are designed to develop talent to prepare them for critical
roles and leadership positions; reward and support employees through competitive pay, benefit, and perquisite programs; enhance
the Company’s culture through efforts aimed at making the workplace more engaging and inclusive; acquire talent and facilitate
internal talent mobility to create a high-performing, diverse workforce; engage employees as brand ambassadors of the Company’s
content, products and experiences; and evolve and invest in technology, tools, and resources to enable employees at work.
Our training program is a critical piece of achieving these goals, including the Company’s work to assure an environment that is free
of discrimination and inclusive of all.
Other Matters
Management is not aware of any other matters that will be presented at the Annual Meeting, and Company Bylaws do not allow
proposals to be presented at the meeting unless they were properly presented to the Company prior to September 21, 2021.
However, if any other question that requires a vote is properly presented at the meeting, the proxy holders will vote as recommended
by the Board or, if no recommendation is given, in their own discretion.

INFORMATION ABOUT VOTING AND THE MEETING
3) by e-mail: sendmaterial@proxyvote.com (your e-mail should contain the 16-digit number in the subject line)
4) Virtual Annual Meeting: log into the virtual Annual Meeting website at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/DIS2022 and
following the instructions provided on the website. If you are the beneficial owner of shares held in street name, you should
refer to the voting instructions provided by your brokerage firm, bank, or other holder of record. Beneficial owners may also
attend and vote online during the Annual Meeting. We encourage you to vote your proxy by internet, telephone or mail
prior to the meeting, even if you plan to attend the virtual Annual Meeting.
To facilitate timely delivery, request the materials on or before February 23, 2022.
Deadline for Voting. The deadline for voting by telephone or electronically is 11:59 p.m., Eastern Time, on March 8, 2022. If you
attend the virtual meeting, you may vote your shares at the meeting.
Proxies Submitted but not Voted. If you properly sign and return your proxy card or complete your proxy via the telephone or internet,
your shares will be voted as you direct. If you sign and return your proxy but do not specify how you want your shares voted, they
will be voted FOR the election of all nominees for Director as set forth under “Items to be Voted On—Election of Directors,” FOR the
ratification of the appointment of the independent registered public accountants, FOR the advisory vote on executive compensation
and AGAINST each shareholder proposal.
Revocation of Proxies. You may revoke your proxy and change your vote at any time before the close of balloting at the Annual
Meeting by submitting a written notice to the Secretary, by submitting a later dated and properly executed proxy (including by means
of a telephone or internet vote), or by voting at the virtual Annual Meeting.
Confirmation of Voting. From February 22, 2022 through May 9, 2022, you may confirm your vote beginning twenty-four hours after
your vote is received, whether it was cast by proxy card, electronically or telephonically. To obtain vote confirmation, log onto
www.ProxyVote.com/Disney using the 16-digit number located on your notice or proxy card. If you hold your shares through a bank
or brokerage account, the ability to confirm your vote may be affected by the rules of your bank or broker and the confirmation will
not confirm whether your bank or broker allocated the correct number of shares to you.
Plan Participants. If you participate in the Disney Savings and Investment Plan or the Disney Hourly Savings and Investment Plan, you
may give voting instructions as to the number of shares of common stock you hold in the plan as of the Record Date. You may provide
voting instructions to Fidelity Management Trust Company by voting online or by completing and returning a proxy card if you
received one. If you hold shares other than through these plans and you vote electronically, voting instructions you give with respect to
your other shares will be applied to Disney stock credited to your accounts in a savings and investment plan unless you request a
separate control number with respect to each account. The trustee will vote your shares in accordance with your duly executed
instructions received by March 6, 2022. If you do not send instructions, an independent fiduciary has been selected to determine how
to vote all shares for which the trustee does not receive valid and timely instructions from participants. You may revoke previously
given voting instructions by March 6, 2022, by either revising your instructions online or by submitting to the trustee either a written
notice of revocation or a properly completed and signed proxy card bearing a later date. Your voting instructions will be kept
confidential by the trustee.
Broker Voting. Under New York Stock Exchange Rules, the proposal to approve the appointment of independent auditors is
considered a “discretionary” item. This means that brokerage firms may vote in their discretion on this matter on behalf of clients who
have not furnished voting instructions at least 10 days before the date of the meeting. In contrast, the election of Directors, the
advisory vote on executive compensation, and the shareholder proposals are “non-discretionary” items. This means brokerage firms
that have not received voting instructions from their clients on these proposals may not vote on them. These so-called “broker
non-votes” will be included in the calculation of the number of votes considered to be present at the meeting for purposes of
determining a quorum, but will not be considered in determining the number of votes necessary for approval and will have no effect
on the outcome of the vote for Directors, the advisory vote on executive compensation, and the shareholder proposals.
Results of Voting. We will post preliminary results of voting at the meeting on our Investor Relations website promptly after the meeting
and file results with the Securities and Exchange Commission as required by applicable rules.
INFORMATION ABOUT VOTING AND THE MEETING
Certain Relationships and Related Person Transactions

The Board has adopted a written policy for review of transactions in any fiscal year in which the Company is a participant and in
which any Director, executive officer, holder of more than 5% of our outstanding shares or any immediate family member of any of
these persons has a direct or indirect material interest. Directors, 5% shareholders and executive officers are required to inform the
Company of any such transaction promptly after they become aware of it, and the Company collects information from Directors and
executive officers about their affiliations and affiliations of their family members so the Company can search its records for any such
transactions. Transactions are presented to the Governance and Nominating Committee of the Board (or to the Chair of the
Committee if the Committee delegates this responsibility) for approval before they are entered into or, if this is not possible, for
ratification after the transaction has been entered into. The Committee approves or ratifies a transaction if it determines that the
transaction is consistent with the best interests of the Company, including whether the transaction impairs independence of a Director.
Each of the investment management firms, Vanguard Group, Inc. and Blackrock, Inc., through their affiliates, held more than 5% of
the Company’s shares during fiscal 2021. Funds managed by affiliates of Vanguard and Blackrock are included as investment
options in defined contribution plans offered to Company employees. In addition, Blackrock manages investment portfolios for the
Company’s pension funds and provides a risk analytics platform related to management of investments in the pension funds.
Vanguard and Blackrock received fees of approximately $1 million and $23 million, respectively, in fiscal 2021 based on the
amounts invested in funds managed by them. The ongoing relationships were reviewed and approved in fiscal 2021 by the
Governance and Nominating Committee under the Related Person Transaction Approval Policy.
Mr. Chapek’s son, Brian Chapek (“Mr. B. Chapek”), was previously employed at Marvel Studios as Director, Production &
Development throughout fiscal 2020. In December 2021, Mr. B. Chapek received a bonus of $525,000, to which he was entitled as
a result of his previous production services rendered as an employee of Marvel Studios.
Beginning in fiscal 2021, MVL Productions LLC, a subsidiary of the Company, contracted with a company wholly owned by Mr. B.
Chapek, for Mr. B. Chapek’s exclusive services for a three-year period. The contract provides for Mr. B. Chapek to receive an annual
base payment of $322,000 in fiscal 2021, $342,000 in fiscal 2022 and $367,000 in fiscal 2023. These amounts are inclusive of
a payment in lieu of benefits. Additionally, Mr. B. Chapek will receive a $200,000 fee for each film on which he serves as lead
producer and an additional bonus calculated by a predetermined formula based on the worldwide box office of films on which he
works, consistent with a range and structure typical of producer deals at Walt Disney Studios. For fiscal 2021, Mr. B. Chapek
received his $322,000 base payment plus $160,000, 80% of his producer fee, with the remaining 20% to be paid in fiscal 2022.
This relationship was reviewed and approved in fiscal 2021 by the Governance and Nominating Committee under the Related
Person Transaction Approval Policy.
In fiscal 2021, Kelsey McCormick, daughter of Christine McCarthy, Senior Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, was
employed as a Business Operations Manager in the Advertising business of the Disney Media and Entertainment Distribution segment.
Effective December 17, 2021, Ms. McCormick resigned from her role at the Company. For fiscal 2021, her salary was $90,640, her
benefits were approximately $12,600, and her bonus was $17,038. Ms. McCormick was paid an amount and her compensation
was structured the same as similarly situated employees. This relationship was reviewed and approved in fiscal 2021 by the
Governance and Nominating Committee under the Related Person Transaction Approval Policy.

Burbank, California 91521-1030. Under a process approved by the Governance and Nominating Committee of the Board for
handling letters received by the Company and addressed to non-management members of the Board, the office of the Secretary of the
Company reviews all such correspondence and forwards to Board members a summary and/or copies of any such correspondence
that, in the opinion of the Secretary, deals with the functions of the Board or committees thereof or that the Secretary otherwise
determines requires their attention. The Governance and Nominating Committee reviews summaries of all correspondence from
identified shareholders at the regular meetings of the Committee. Directors may at any time review a log of all correspondence
received by the Company that is addressed to members of the Board and request copies of any such correspondence.
Concerns relating to accounting, internal controls or auditing matters are immediately brought to the attention of the Company’s
internal audit department and handled in accordance with procedures established by the Audit Committee with respect to such
matters.
Shareholder Proposals for Inclusion in 2023 Proxy Statement. To be eligible for inclusion in the proxy statement for our 2023 Annual
Meeting, shareholder proposals must be received by the Company’s Secretary no later than the close of business on September 21,
2022. Proposals should be sent to the Secretary, The Walt Disney Company, 500 South Buena Vista Street, Burbank, California
91521-1030 and follow the procedures required by SEC Rule 14a-8.
Shareholder Director Nominations for Inclusion in 2023 Proxy Statement. Under our Bylaws, written notice of shareholder
nominations to the Board of Directors that are to be included in the proxy statement pursuant to the proxy access provisions in
Article II, Section 11 of our Bylaws must be delivered to the Company’s Secretary not later than 120 nor earlier than 150 days prior
to the first anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting. Accordingly, any eligible shareholder who wishes to have a
nomination considered at the 2023 Annual Meeting and included in the Company’s proxy statement must deliver a written notice
(containing the information specified in our Bylaws regarding the shareholder and the proposed nominee) to the Company’s
Secretary between October 10, 2022 and November 9, 2022.
Shareholder Director Nomination and Other Shareholder Proposals for Presentation at the 2023 Annual Meeting Not Included in

who wishes to have a nomination or other business considered at the 2023 Annual Meeting but not included in the Company’s proxy
statement must deliver a written notice (containing the information specified in our Bylaws regarding the shareholder and the
proposed action) to the Company’s Secretary between November 9, 2022 and December 9, 2022. SEC rules permit management to
vote proxies in its discretion with respect to such matters if we advise shareholders how management intends to vote.
Annex A — Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures
This proxy statement includes total segment operating income, which is an important financial measure for the Company but is not a
financial measure defined by Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). This measure should be reviewed in conjunction
with the relevant GAAP financial measure and is not presented as an alternative measure of net income as determined in accordance
with GAAP. This measure as we have calculated it may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
The Company evaluates the performance of its operating segments based on segment operating income, and management uses total
segment operating income as a measure of the performance of operating businesses separate from non-operating factors. The
Company believes that information about total segment operating income assists investors by allowing them to evaluate changes in
the operating results of the Company’s portfolio of businesses separate from non-operational factors that affect net income, thus
providing separate insight into both operations and the other factors that affect reported results. A reconciliation of income from
continuing operations before income taxes to total segment operating income is as follows (dollars in millions):
YEAR ENDED
10/2/2021 10/3/2020 9/28/2019
Income (loss) from continuing operations before income taxes $2,561 ($1,743) $13,923
Corporate & unallocated shared expenses 928 817 987
Restructuring and impairment charges 654 5,735 1,183
Other income, net (201) (1,038) (4,357)
Interest expense, net 1,406 1,491 978
Amortization of TFCF and Hulu intangible assets and fair value step-up on film and television costs1 2,418 2,846 1,595
Impairment of equity investments2 — — 538
Total segment operating income $7,766 $8,108 $14,847
1 For fiscal 2021, amortization of intangible assets, fair value step-up on film and television costs and intangibles related to TFCF equity investees
were $1,757 million, $646 million and $15 million, respectively. For fiscal 2020, amortization of intangible assets, fair value step-up on film and
television costs and intangibles related to TFCF equity investees were $1,921 million, $899 million and $26 million, respectively. For fiscal
2019, amortization of intangible assets, fair value step-up on film and television costs and intangibles related to TFCF equity investees were
$1,043 million, $537 million and $15 million, respectively.
2 For fiscal 2019, reflects the impairments of investments in Vice Group Holding, Inc. and of an investment in a cable channel at A+E Television
Networks.
