Summary Compensation Table
The following table summarizes the compensation of our NEOs for 2020. The amounts reported for stock awards may not represent the amounts that the NEOs will actually
realize from the awards. Whether, and to what extent, a named executive officer realizes value will depend on Regencys performance, stock price and continued employment. Please see the 2020 Total Earned Compensation Table for the total
compensation realized by each NEO.

(2) The amounts in this column represent the aggregate grant date fair value computed in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718 for restricted stock awards and
performance-based and market-based performance share awards. We use a Monte Carlo simulation model to value market-based awards, i.e., for performance awards tied to total relative shareholder return. Our model estimates the fair value of the award
based on our data and that of the FTSE Nareit Equity Shopping Centers.
2020 Stock Awards. The goals for performance awards granted in 2020 based upon total
shareholder return are entirely market-based.
The awards issued on January 31, 2020 assumed (a) stock price volatility of 18.5% for Regency and 18.9% for
the index, (b) risk-free interest rates of 1.30%, (c) Regencys beta versus the index of 0.893, and (d) no dividend yield assumption given that the award includes dividend equivalents that are earned only to the extent that the
underlying shares are earned. Based on the performance goals and these capital market assumptions, the market-based awards issued on January 31, 2020 were valued using the Monte Carlo model at $73.54 per share.
The 2020 stock awards also include the grant date fair value of restricted stock awards to Ms. Palmer and Messrs. Stein, Chandler, Thompson and Mas.
2019 Stock Awards. The goals for performance awards granted in 2019 based upon total shareholder return are entirely market-based.
The awards issued on January 31, 2019 assumed (a) stock price volatility of 19.3% for Regency and 19.3% for the index, (b) risk-free interest rates of
2.43%, (c) Regencys beta versus the index of 0.909, and (d) no dividend yield assumption given that the award includes dividend equivalents that are earned only to the extent that the underlying shares are earned. Based on the performance
goals and these capital market assumptions, the market-based awards issued on January 31, 2019 were valued using the Monte Carlo model at $65.03 per share.
The
2019 stock awards also include the grant date fair value of restricted stock awards to Messrs. Chandler, Thompson and Mas.
The total for Mr. Mas also includes
performance awards granted in 2019 that are not market based but based upon Core Operating Earnings per Share and Same Property NOI growth performance. The amount represents the grant date fair value under ASC Topic 718.
2018 Stock Awards. The goals for performance awards granted in 2018 based upon total shareholder return are entirely market-based.
The awards issued on January 29, 2018 assumed (a) stock price volatility of 19.2% for Regency and 18.4% for the index, (b) risk-free interest rates of
2.26%, (c) Regencys beta versus the index of 0.965, and (d) no dividend yield assumption given that the award includes dividend equivalents that are earned only to the extent that the underlying shares are earned. Based on the performance
goals and these capital market assumptions, the market-based awards issued on January 29, 2018 were valued using the Monte Carlo model at $65.74 per share.
The
2018 stock awards also include the grant date fair value of restricted stock awards to Messrs. Chandler and Thompson.

of the following for each executive: (a) a $9,160 contribution to our 401(k) and profit sharing plan, (b) a $1,000 holiday bonus, and (c) life insurance premiums of $17,526 for Mr. Stein, $17,526 for Mr. Thompson, $3,174 for
