Describe the process(es) your organization has in place to ensure that your engagement activities are consistent with your overall climate change strategy[…]First American does not currently engage in activities that could impact the climate, but if we would, our VP, Corporate Real Estate would participate and/or oversee the participation in these organizations, and she also has the highest level of direct responsibility for First American's climate change. By overseeing activities that have the potential to influence climate change policy, First American's VP, Corporate Real Estate would be able to confirm whether participation is consistent with First American's climate change strategy. Any participation found to be inconsistent with First American's values and strategies would be subject to scrutiny. 

Additionally, First American's executive management, including the CEO and CFO oversees First American's climate-related strategy, which may, in the future, include activities that could directly or indirectly impact policy.

The Compensation Committee considers ESG issues in determining executive compensation and because of that, executive management would also be incentivized to ensure all of First American's direct and indirect activities that could impact policy would be aligned with First American's overall climate strategy.
