Item 5.02    Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

(b) On February 28, 2022, Gustavo Lara Cantu notified the Corporate Secretary of American Tower Corporation (the “Company”) of his decision to not stand for re-election at the Company’s 2022 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”). Mr. Lara’s decision to not stand for re-election did not involve any disagreements with the Company. Mr. Lara is currently a member of the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Compensation Committee”) and will continue his service on such committee until the Annual Meeting.

(e) On February 24, 2022, the Compensation Committee considered the compensation arrangements with the Company’s executive officers. The information in the table below sets forth the determinations of the Compensation Committee with respect to base salaries and cash bonus incentive targets for the year ending December 31, 2022 for the Company’s chief executive officer, chief financial officer and the three other most highly compensated executive officers who were serving as executive officers on December 31, 2021 (collectively, the “Current Named Executive Officers”).

In determining annual cash bonus incentive payments for the Company’s Current Named Executive Officers at the end of the year, the Compensation Committee bases its decisions on a number of factors, including achievement of pre-established Company financial goals and individual goals and objectives for each of the Current Named Executive Officers. If the Company exceeds its goals or the executive exceeds his established goals, the annual cash bonus incentive could be subject to increase by the Compensation Committee, up to a maximum of 200% of the executive’s bonus target.

Additional information regarding compensation of the Current Named Executive Officers will be included in the Company’s 2022 Proxy Statement when filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
