PROPOSAL 1: ELECTION OF DIRECTORS
PROPOSAL 1: ELECTION OF DIRECTORS At the Annual Meeting, ten directors are to be elected to hold office until the 2027 Annual Meeting and until their successors are duly elected and qualified or until their earlier termination of service. All director nominees are currently serving on our Board. The Board has determined that each of Messrs. Finnerty, Marcogliese, Moreno, Sullivan, and Zohar and Mses. Benson-Schwartzstein, Sutil, and Tolson qualifies as an independent director under applicable SEC rules and regulations and the rules of the NYSE. We believe that each director nominee will be able to stand for election. All nominees have consented to be named and have indicated their intent to serve if elected. If any nominee becomes unable to stand for election, proxies in favor of that nominee will be voted in favor of any substitute nominee named by the Board. If you do not wish your shares to be voted for one or more of the nominees, you may so indicate when you vote by withholding your vote for the particular nominee. The persons named in the enclosed proxy card intend to vote the proxy for the election of each of the ten nominees, unless you indicate on the proxy card that your vote should be withheld from any of the nominees. Biographies for each director nominee are set forth below. Except as listed in their biographies, no director has served as a director of a publicly traded company or a registered investment company in the past five years. The Company’s Bylaws require majority voting in uncontested elections of directors. Accordingly, a nominee for director is only elected if the number of votes cast “FOR” the nominee’s election exceeds the number of votes cast “AGAINST” that nominee’s election at a meeting at which a quorum is present in person or represented by proxy. Shares that are not voted in the election of directors, including abstentions and broker non-votes, have no direct effect in the election of directors. Those shares, however, are taken into account in determining whether a sufficient number of shares are present to establish a quorum. The Board has adopted a director resignation policy (the “Policy”) in the event that an incumbent director fails to receive the required number of votes for re-election in an uncontested election. The Policy requires that a director who fails to receive the required number of votes for re-election in an uncontested election will tender his or her resignation to the Chair of the Board for consideration by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will consider the resignation and make a recommendation to the Board concerning its acceptance or rejection. In doing so, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will consider all factors deemed relevant, including, but not limited to, the stated reason stockholders voted against the director’s re-election, the director’s qualifications, and whether the director’s resignation would be in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders. The Board will then consider information, factors, and alternatives considered by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee in making its ultimate decision of whether to accept or reject the director’s resignation. The Board of Directors recommends a vote “FOR” each of the following nominees.

Compensation Highlights for Fiscal 2025
| ■ | Compensation is paid in a mix of base salary; annual cash-based incentives under our Annual Incentive Plan (“AIP”); and equity-based long-term incentive awards (consisting of equal amounts of Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”) and Performance-based Restricted Stock Units (“PSUs”)). |
Compensation Highlights for Fiscal 2025
| ■ | Our equity-based long-term incentive program is intended to attract, motivate, and retain participants, and to enhance stockholder value through the use of non-cash, equity incentive compensation opportunities. In 2025 as in past years, 50% of the target value of each executive’s long-term incentive opportunity was granted in time vesting RSUs allocated evenly between Company stock and Delek Logistics common units, and 50% was granted in performance-vesting PSUs. For the first time in 2025, the PSUs were also allocated evenly between Company stock and Delek Logistics common units. The time-vesting RSUs vest on a quarterly basis over a three-year period and the PSU grants are earned based on (i) for Company Stock, our total shareholder return (“TSR”) relative to companies in the S&P 400 Energy Index in four tranches with three one-year performance periods (2025, 2026, and 2027) and a single three-year performance period (2025-2027), and (ii) for Delek Logistics common units, Delek Logistics’ distributable cash flow, in each case with earned PSUs vesting at the end of the three-year period. |
Summary of Compensation Actions for 2025 and 2026
| | The Human Capital and Compensation Committee approved payouts under the 2025 AIP for 2025 at 150% of target for the Company’s executive officers, including our NEOs, based on the achievement of 2025 goals and initiatives. |
Summary of Compensation Actions for 2025 and 2026
| | The Human Capital and Compensation Committee approved an Annual Incentive Plan for the 2026 fiscal year (the “2026 AIP”) applicable to executive officers. Under the 2026 AIP, payment of awards will be based on 2026 Adjusted EBITDA achievement and operating metrics, with a 1.5x to 2x modifier in the event that new 2026 EOP targets are achieved. |
Summary of Compensation Actions for 2025 and 2026
| | The Human Capital and Compensation Committee approved long-term incentive awards to our named executive officers under the Company’s 2016 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “2016 Plan”). The awards consist of RSUs and PSUs. The RSUs generally vest quarterly in equal amounts through the third anniversary of the grant date (provided the initial installment that would otherwise vest three months following the grant date will instead vest with the second installment six months following the grant date), subject to the employee’s continued employment with the Company. One-half of the RSUs and PSUs entitle the holder to Company stock upon vesting and one half of the RSUs and PSUs entitle the holder to Delek Logistics common limited partner units upon vesting. |
Summary of Compensation Actions for 2025 and 2026
The respective PSUs vest at the end of the applicable three-year performance period based on (i) with respect to the PSUs allocated to Company stock, our relative total shareholder return (“TSR”), which we define generally as appreciation in the Company’s stock price plus all dividends paid during the applicable performance period, relative to the performance of companies in the S&P 400 Energy Index identified by the Human Capital and Compensation Committee, and (ii) with respect to the PSUs allocated to Delek Logistics common units, Delek Logistics’ distributable cash flow. Our NEOs may earn from 0% to 200% of the PSUs granted based on certain performance standards.

Compensation Setting Process
Compensation Setting Process The Human Capital and Compensation Committee is responsible for determining the amount and mix of total compensation to be paid to our executive officers. In making these determinations for our NEOs other than Mr. Soreq, the Human Capital and Compensation Committee typically solicits the input and recommendations of Mr. Soreq. With respect to Mr. Soreq, the Human Capital and Compensation Committee recommends his compensation to the Board of Directors for approval. For all of our NEOs, the Human Capital and Compensation Committee references external consultant studies of our compensation programs. Our goal from each year is to develop an appropriate mix of fixed, annual incentive and long-term incentive compensation to attract and retain our executive officers while simultaneously incentivizing them to exert their best efforts to maximize near-term results and longer-term value for our stockholders. External Consultants The Human Capital and Compensation Committee typically engages external compensation consultants to provide reports related to the design and amount of executive compensation and to evaluate achievement under performance awards. The Human Capital and Compensation Committee also engages compensation consultants to provide director compensation analyses and target compensation reports that are used to develop our director compensation framework. Finally, the Human Capital and Compensation Committee engages compensation consultants to assist us with the development of our annual cash bonus plans and the evaluation of achievement under such plans. For 2025, the Human Capital and Compensation Committee retained Pay Governance LLC (“Pay Governance”), a nationally recognized independent executive compensation consultant, to provide the Human Capital and Compensation Committee advice on executive compensation matters going forward. We expect that, from time to time, the Human Capital and Compensation Committee will continue to reference data and guidance provided, and to be provided, by Pay Governance or similar external consultants in setting executive and director compensation. The Human Capital and Compensation Committee believes that Pay Governance is independent of management and provides the Committee with objective guidance. Benchmarking We believe that effective executive compensation practices depend upon the particular facts and circumstances of each employer and should not be dictated by the practices of others. However, we recognize there is competition for executive talent and we believe that referencing specific and aggregated compensation data from certain
Compensation Setting Process
companies and groups of companies from time to time can be a useful tool in our decision-making process for all areas of our compensation framework. The Human Capital and Compensation Committee reviews the compensation peer group of companies used to identify market compensation data for our NEOs and non-employee directors (the “Comparator Group”). Pay Governance played a key role in identifying the of companies to serve as peers based on the following characteristics:
Variable Compensation and Promotion of a Long-Term Perspective
Variable Compensation and Promotion of a Long-Term Perspective We increase the variable at-risk components of compensation for our executives as they progress in our organization while adjusting the ratio of short-term to long-term compensation to promote accountability and a long-term equity ownership culture. We structure our executive compensation program so that the proportion of variable versus fixed compensation increases as the role and responsibility of the executive increases. We believe this structure is appropriate as executives are best positioned to affect the Company’s performance. Therefore, we believe our executives should receive a substantial portion of their total compensation value in the form of long-term equity incentives that measure and reward the Company’s performance over a multiple year period. The table below illustrates that the actual percentage of variable pay relative to total compensation depends on the executive’s position within the Company. Generally, the higher the executive’s position within the Company, the greater the proportion of variable pay that is linked to Company performance and stockholder return metrics. Similarly, as an executive rises to positions of greater responsibility within our Company, short-term compensation begins to decrease proportionately relative to long-term compensation which, in most cases, begins to represent a greater proportion of the executive’s total compensation. Accordingly, the decision to emphasize variable elements for these individuals results in a reduced emphasis on fixed elements of compensation. In some cases, the variances between short-term and long-term compensation are related to tenure or initial compensation package provided upon hiring.

Annual Incentive Compensation
Annual Incentive Compensation Annual cash bonuses paid to our executive officers for a fiscal year are typically determined in the first quarter of the ensuing fiscal year and are intended to reward company-wide performance. No compensatory arrangement with any executive officer guarantees that an annual cash bonus will be paid to her or him each year. The decision to award annual cash bonuses to our executive officers, and the determination of the amounts thereof (if any), is the prerogative of the Human Capital and Compensation Committee and/or the Board. 2025 Annual Incentive Plan In February 2025, the Human Capital and Compensation Committee approved an Annual Incentive Plan for the 2025 fiscal year (the “2025 AIP”) applicable to executive officers.

Enterprise Optimization Plan As part of the Company’s efforts to reduce costs and promote efficiency, in 2024 the Company implemented an enterprise optimization initiative with a goal of at least a $100 million improvement in expenses through the end of 2025. To support this initiative, in October 2024 the Human Capital and Compensation Committee approved an equity-based enterprise optimization incentive plan (the “EOP”). The EOP was focused on increasing the Company’s free cash flow via shared services outsourcing, improvements to refining operating expenses, commercial growth, and interest expense reduction, while also incentivizing retention of key employees. The EOP had a performance period ending December 31, 2025. Payouts would not occur unless the Company reached at least $100 million in free cash flow (“FCF”) savings on a one-year run rate basis exiting 2025, using an average of the FCF savings in the third and fourth quarters of 2025 over the Company’s second quarter 2024 reported results. The following table sets forth the targets for the EOP.
Annual Incentive Compensation
| EOP FCF Metric | Average of Q3 and Q4 2025 Results | | | | Target | Max | | Annualized FCF Savings | $100 million | $200 million |
Annual Incentive Compensation
Actual annualized FCF Savings for the measurement period were $298 million, resulting in full payout of the EOP plan at 300% of target. Furthermore, for any payment in excess of target, a stock price hurdle of 0-20% stock price improvement at any point from plan adoption through payout in the first quarter of 2026 had to be met, with payouts limited by the hurdle on a straight-line basis from 0% (at target) to 20% (for maximum payout). The full stock price hurdle was met during the measurement period. Payouts between the target and maximum payouts were based on straight-line interpolation, subject to the Chief Executive Officer’s right to make discretionary adjustments. The EOP metrics were designed with project level detail to enable assurance over the calculation of the chosen metrics through reviews by the Company’s internal audit function and management’s vesting calculations were tested by the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, Ernst & Young, with any discrepancies to be reported to management and the Audit Committee prior to any vesting. EOP awards to our executive officers consisted of performance-vesting PSUs with a target payout of one times the executive’s target bonus, with a maximum payout of three times the executive’s target bonus. Participants were required to remain in continuous service to the Company through the payout date to receive the award.
Long-Term Incentives
Long-Term Incentives The Human Capital and Compensation Committee believes that the grant of long-term compensation, primarily in the form of long-term equity incentive awards, to our executive officers is appropriate to attract, motivate and retain such individuals, and enhance stockholder value through the use of non-cash, equity incentive compensation opportunities. The Human Capital and Compensation Committee believes that the best interests of our stockholders would be most effectively advanced by enabling our executive officers, who are responsible for our management, growth and success, to receive compensation from time to time in the form of long-term incentive awards. Because the vesting of long-term awards is based upon continued employment with us, the awards are designed to provide our executive officers with an incentive to remain with us. Since long-term awards will increase in value in conjunction with an increase in the value of our Common Stock or other performance metrics, such awards are also designed to align the interests of our executive officers and our stockholders. In recent years we have also incorporated long-term incentive awards under the Delek Logistics 2012 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “Delek Logistics LTIP”) into our executive compensation program in recognition of the growth of Delek Logistics. While the overall amounts of long-term

Long-Term Incentives
equity incentives for all of our NEOs are approved by the Human Capital and Compensation Committee, grants under the Delek Logistics LTIP must also be approved by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board of Directors of the general partner of Delek Logistics. Compensatory Arrangements and Long-Term Incentives No compensatory arrangement with any NEO guarantees that long-term incentive compensation will be awarded to her or him each year. The decision to award long-term incentive compensation to our NEOs, and the determination of the amounts thereof (if any), is the prerogative of the Human Capital and Compensation Committee and/or the Board. The performance-vesting component of long-term incentive compensation in 2025 for our NEOs that was allocated to Company stock used relative TSR performance as its performance measure, with the payout determined based on the rank of the Company’s TSR (stock price plus all dividends paid during the applicable performance period) compared to the TSR of the peer group companies (see the list of companies below), over the three-year performance period, as well as for each year within the performance period. Shares may be earned each year if the performance criteria are met, or forfeited if the performance criteria are not met. Awards do not vest and payout until the end of the three-year performance period and are subject to the executive’s continued employment. The performance-vesting component of long-term incentive compensation in 2025 for our NEOs that was allocated to Delek Logistics common units used Delek Logistics distributable cash flow as its performance measure, with the payout determined based on distributable cash flow over the three-year performance period, as well as for each year within the performance period. Delek Logistics common units may be earned each year if the performance criteria are met, or forfeited if the performance criteria are not met. Awards do not vest and payout until the end of the three-year performance period and are subject to the executive’s continued employment. The time-vested RSUs (both for Company stock and Delek Logistics common units) vest quarterly in equal amounts through the third anniversary of the grant date (provided the initial installment that would otherwise vest three months following the grant date will instead vest with the second installment six months following the grant date). The time vested RSUs are conditioned upon the employee’s continued employment with the Company. Equity Awards in 2025 In 2025, the Human Capital and Compensation Committee approved long-term incentive awards to our named executive officers under the 2016 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “2016 Plan”). The awards have two components: (i) time-vested RSUs and (ii) PSUs. The time-vested RSUs generally vest quarterly in equal amounts through the third anniversary of the grant date (provided the initial installment that would otherwise vest three months following the grant date will instead vest with the second installment six months following the grant date). The time-vested RSUs are conditioned upon the employee’s continued employment with the Company.

The PSUs were split evenly between Company stock and Delek Logistics common units. The PSUs granted to Messrs. Soreq, Hobbs and Israel on March 10, 2025 were subject to performance periods beginning January 1, 2025 and ending December 31, 2025, beginning January 1, 2026 and ending December 31, 2026, beginning January 1, 2027 and ending December 31, 2027, and beginning January 1, 2025 and ending December 31, 2027. The PSUs granted to Mr. Wright on March 10, 2025 were subject to a performance period beginning January 1, 2025 and ending December 31, 2025. The PSUs allocated to Company stock vest, if at all, at the end of the applicable performance period and are based on our relative TSR, which we define generally as appreciation in the Company’s stock price plus all dividends paid during the applicable performance period, relative to the performance of the peer group of companies identified by the Human Capital and Compensation Committee. Our named executive officers may earn from 0% to 200% of the PSUs granted based on the performance standards in the table below:

The PSUs allocated to Delek Logistics common units vest, if at all, at the end of the applicable performance period based on Delek Logistics distributable cash flow. For 2025, the Delek Logistics distributable cash flow metrics with the accompanying payout amount is set forth in the following table: For 2025, Delek Logistics distributable cash flow was $305.8 million, representing 89% achievement of the metrics for the 2025 performance period, which are set forth in the table below:

Long-Term Incentives
2016 Long-Term Incentive Plan In 2016, our stockholders approved our 2016 Plan, which succeeded our 2006 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “2006 Plan”) adopted by our Board upon our initial public offering. The 2016 Plan allows us to grant stock options, stock appreciation rights (“SARs”), restricted stock, RSUs, performance awards and other stock-based awards to certain directors, officers, employees, consultants and other individuals who perform services for us or our affiliates. RSU and PSU awards under the 2016 Plan may be accompanied by dividend equivalent rights providing for a lump sum cash amount equal to the accrued dividends from the grant date of the RSU or PSU, which is paid in cash on the vesting date. The Board has delegated authority to the Human Capital and Compensation Committee to generally administer the 2016 Plan. The Human Capital and Compensation Committee has discretion to select the persons to whom awards are made under the 2016 Plan, and prescribes the terms and conditions of each award under the 2016 Plan. With respect to the application of the 2016 Plan to non-employee directors, the Board has sole responsibility and authority for matters relating to the grant and administration of awards. For a description of the Human Capital and Compensation Committee’s delegation of authority to grant equity awards, please see the narrative discussion of our Human Capital and Compensation Committee under the heading “Committees of the Board of Directors” in this Proxy Statement. Equity awards under the 2016 Plan are subject to exercise or base prices equal to (or greater than) the market price of our Common Stock on the grant date. We define the market price of our Common Stock as the NYSE closing price on the date of the grant, or the last previous NYSE closing price if the date of the grant occurs on a day when the NYSE is not open for trading. For a description of the equity awards made under the 2016 Plan in 2025 to our NEOs and directors, please see the narrative discussions and tables under the headings “Grants of Plan-Based Awards in 2025” and “2025 Director Compensation” in this Proxy Statement. We intend to continue our practice of providing long-term equity-based compensation under the proposed 2026 Plan to our employees, including our NEOs, through time-vested grants with exercise or base prices equal to (or greater than) the fair market value of our Common Stock on the grant date. We also intend to continue our practice of making initial grants to newly hired executives, including future NEOs. The Human Capital and Compensation Committee does not currently consider gains or losses from prior equity awards in setting other elements of compensation.
Fringe Benefits, Perquisites and Severance Provisions
Fringe Benefits, Perquisites and Severance Provisions Our NEOs are eligible to participate in the benefit plans generally available to all of our employees, which include health, dental, life insurance, vision and disability insurance. We also sponsor a voluntary 401(k) Employee Retirement Savings Plan (“401(k) Plan”) for eligible employees (including our NEOs) administered by Fidelity Investments. Employees must be at least 21 years of age to participate in the 401(k) Plan. Prior to January 1, 2021, after the first anniversary of employment with us, provided such employee is at least 21 years of age and with at least 1,000 hours worked, we matched employee
Fringe Benefits, Perquisites and Severance Provisions
| DELEK US HOLDINGS, INC. | 2026 PROXY STATEMENT | 50 |
Fringe Benefits, Perquisites and Severance Provisions
contributions to the 401(k) Plan, including those by our NEOs, on a fully vested basis up to a maximum of ten percent of eligible compensation. Because compensation limits imposed on qualified retirement plans by the Internal Revenue Code prevent certain of our executives, including our NEOs, from being able to contribute amounts to the 401(k) Plan sufficient to receive the full Company match of ten percent of eligible compensation, in 2019, we adopted the Delek US Holdings, Inc. Deferred Compensation Plan (the “Deferred Compensation Plan”) that allows our executives, including our NEOs, to receive such matching contributions. The Deferred Compensation Plan allows participating executives, including our NEOs, to defer up to 50% of their base salary, and up to 100% of amounts payable under our annual incentive plan, and, prior to January 1, 2021, receive matching contributions as if they had been made under the 401(k) Plan up to a maximum of ten percent of eligible compensation. Since the 2008 tax year, we have reimbursed our executive officers for the cost of professional preparation of their income tax returns. Because our executive officers are typically among our most highly compensated employees, their personal tax returns may be examined in connection with examinations of our tax returns. In addition, Exchange Act reporting requirements expose the executive officers’ compensation to public scrutiny. We believe that encouraging our executive officers to seek professional tax advice will mitigate the personal risks that accompany the heightened scrutiny of their compensation, provide us with a retention and recruiting tool for executive officers, and protect us from the negative publicity that could surround an executive officer’s misstatement of his or her personal income tax liabilities. We currently have written employment arrangements with each of Messrs. Soreq, Hobbs, Israel, Spiegel, and Wright and Ms. McWatters. These employment arrangements generally provide for certain benefits to and commitments from each NEO, including:
Fringe Benefits, Perquisites and Severance Provisions
| • | Provisions requiring the confidentiality of Company information obtained by the executive during his or her employment; |
Fringe Benefits, Perquisites and Severance Provisions
| • | In some instances, non-competition and non-solicitation restrictions on the executive in the event of termination of his or her employment; and |
Fringe Benefits, Perquisites and Severance Provisions
| • | The provision of certain perquisites described above including reimbursement of certain tax preparation costs and, for Mr. Spiegel, reimbursement for certain rent expenses, which perquisites are more fully described in the Summary Compensation Table in this Proxy Statement. |
Fringe Benefits, Perquisites and Severance Provisions
In addition, these employment agreements, as well as the terms of the 2006 Plan, the 2016 Plan, and Delek Logistics LTIP, may require us to provide compensation or other benefits to our NEOs in connection with certain events related to a termination of employment or a change in control or exchange transaction. For a description of the terms of these arrangements, see “Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change-in-Control” in this Proxy Statement. We have established these arrangements because we believe that providing NEOs with compensation and benefit arrangements upon termination or a change in control or exchange transaction is necessary for us to be competitive with compensation packages of other companies in our industry and assists us in recruiting and retaining talented executives. In addition, formalizing these benefits provides us with certainty in terms of our obligations to an eligible executive in the event that our relationship with any such executive is terminated.

Clawback Policy
Clawback Policy Our Human Capital and Compensation Committee has adopted a clawback policy (the “Clawback Policy”). Under the Clawback Policy, if our consolidated financial statements are restated within three years of the first filing of such financial statements with the SEC due to material noncompliance with any financial reporting requirements under applicable securities laws, including any required accounting restatement to correct an error in previously issued financial statements that is material to the previously issued financial statements, or that would result in a material misstatement if the error were corrected in the current period or left uncorrected in the current period, the Human Capital and Compensation Committee may require that any current or former employee subject to the Clawback Policy (which includes all of our executive officers) forfeit and/or return to us all or a portion of any compensation that was granted, earned, or vested based wholly or in part upon the attainment of a Financial Reporting Measure (as such term is defined in the Clawback Policy) and shall include any award of stock options, restricted stock, RSUs, PSUs, or other performance shares, phantom shares or SARs during the period subject to restatement or the period during which the fraud, intentional misconduct, gross negligence, or failure to monitor conduct or risk took place.
Equity Award Policies and Practices
Equity Award Policies and Practices Our policy is to grant equity awards on the tenth day of the third month of each quarter irrespective of when in such quarter the Human Capital and Compensation Committee approves to grant the equity award to our named executive officers. We do not grant equity awards in anticipation of the release of material nonpublic information nor time the release of material nonpublic information based on equity award grant dates for the purpose of affecting the value of executive compensation.

Summary Compensation Table
The fair value of PSUs for Messrs. Soreq, Hobbs, and Israel is calculated using a Monte-Carlo simulation model, which assumes a risk-free rate of interest of 3.87%, an expected term of 2.81 years and expected volatility of 45.48%. Mr. Wright’s has a different Monte-Carlo simulation model, which assumes a risk free-rate of interest of 4.1%, an expected term of 0.76 years, and expected volatility of 48.15%. The fair value of RSUs is calculated using the closing price of our Common Stock and Delek Logistics’ common units on the date of the grant. Assumptions used in the calculation of these amounts for the 2026 fiscal year are included in footnote 20 to our audited financial statements for the 2025 fiscal year included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 24, 2026. Because the fair value of PSUs is calculated differently than the fair value of RSUs, the grant date fair values for PSUs and RSUs covering identical quantities of shares may differ. If achievement of the highest level of performance conditions is assumed, the grant date fair value of the PSUs and RSUs granted in 2025 would be $7,414,422 for Mr. Soreq, $1,647,607 for Mr. Hobbs, $1,977,135 for Mr. Israel, $920,691 for Mr. Wright. The grant date fair value of each PSU and RSU award in 2025 is set forth in the Grants of Plan-Based Awards in 2025 table on page 56.

Israel, Spiegel and Hobbs and Ms. McWatters, and group term life insurance premiums of $3,152 for Mr. Soreq, $3,177 for Mr. Israel, $13,579 for Ms. McWatters, $16,384 for Mr. Spiegel, $5,343 for Mr. Hobbs, and $992 for Mr. Wright. For Mr. Soreq, this amount also includes reimbursement in the amount of $9,400 for professional tax preparation fees, $3,250 for medical examination fees, and $1,000 for HSA employer contributions. For Mr. Spiegel this amount includes $79,332 for rent and $207,692 related to accrued vacation dates as of December 31, 2025. For Mr. Wright, this amount also includes reimbursement in the amount of $1,000 for HSA employer contributions and $17,544 for matching contributions to his non-qualified deferred compensation plan.

Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation
Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation We sponsor a voluntary 401(k) Plan that allows eligible employees to make plan contributions on both a pre-tax and after-tax basis. Prior to January 1, 2021, we matched eligible employee contributions, including those by our NEOs, on a fully-vested basis up to a maximum of ten percent of eligible compensation. Although NEOs are eligible to participate in the 401(k) Plan, the application of annual compensation limits under the Internal Revenue Code significantly limits our NEOs’ contributions under the 401(k) Plan. In 2019, we adopted a non-qualified Deferred Compensation Plan that allows our participating executives, including our NEOs, to defer up to 50% of their base salary, and up to 100% of amounts payable under our annual incentive plan. Prior to January 1, 2021, participants also received matching contributions as if they had been made under the 401(k) Plan up to a maximum of ten percent of eligible compensation. The following table sets forth information regarding the contributions by each NEO and the Company to the Deferred Compensation Plan, as well as information regarding earnings, aggregate withdrawals and distributions and balances for each NEO as of and for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025.
Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation

Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation
| (1) These amounts represent elective contributions into the Deferred Compensation Plan during 2025 of eligible compensation earned by each of our NEOs. The amount of any base salary deferred is included in the amount reported in the 2025 salary column of the Summary Compensation Table above, and the amount of any annual incentive deferred is included in the amount reported in the 2025 non-equity incentive plan compensation column of the Summary Compensation Table above. Deferrals related to amounts otherwise payable in 2026 (even if considered earned in 2025) will be shown as executive contributions for 2026. |
Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation
| (2) These amounts represent Company matching contributions to the Deferred Compensation Plan during 2025. The amount in this column for each NEO is included in the 2025 “All Other Compensation” column of the Summary Compensation Table above. The amounts in this column account for the company match of 100% up to 10%. This calculation considers the NEOs eligible earnings for the year and what was already paid on the 401(k) match. |
Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation
| (3) These amounts represent the net gains for each NEO for the contributions to the Deferred Compensation Plan. None of these amounts are included in compensation reported in the Summary Compensation Table above because none of the earnings are considered to be “above market.” |
Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation
The Deferred Compensation Plan account of each participating NEO is deemed to be invested in certain investment options available under the plan, as designated by the NEO. Deemed investment earnings and losses are applied to each NEO’s Deferred Compensation Plan account based upon the performance of the applicable investment. The Deferred Compensation Plan allows participants to elect the timing and method of distributions.

Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change-In-Control
Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change-In-Control The following tables disclose the estimated payments and benefits that would be provided to each of our NEOs, applying the assumptions that each of the triggering events relating to termination of employment and changes in control described in their respective employment agreements, the 2006 Plan, the 2016 Plan, and the Delek Logistics LTIP took place on December 31, 2025 and their last day of employment was December 31, 2025. These amounts are in addition to benefits payable generally to our salaried employees. Due to a number of factors that affect the nature and amount of any benefits provided upon the events discussed below, any actual amounts paid or distributed may differ. Factors that could affect these amounts include the timing during the year of any such event and the fair market values of our Common Stock and Delek Logistics’ common units.

For awards subject to performance goals, if the participant does not receive a replacement award, payout at a change in control will be based upon the greater of (i) a pro rata portion of the amount payable based upon “target” performance under the applicable performance goals or (ii) the amount payable based on actual performance level had the performance period ended on the date of the change in control. If a participant terminates his or her employment for Good Reason (as defined in the 2016 Plan), the participant is involuntarily terminated for reasons other than for cause, or the participant’s employment terminates due to the participant’s death or disability during the two-year period commencing on the date of a change in control, then (A) all replacement awards held by the participant will become fully vested and, if applicable, exercisable and free of restrictions (with any applicable performance goals deemed to have been achieved at a target level as of the date of such vesting), and (B) all stock options held by the participant immediately before such termination of employment that the participant also held as of the date of the change in control or that constitute replacement awards will remain exercisable for not less than two years following such termination of employment or until the expiration of the stated term of such stock option, whichever period is shorter (provided, however, that if the applicable award agreement provides for a longer period of exercisability, that provision will control). For an illustration of the value of accelerated equity awards under the 2016 Plan assuming that a “change in control” occurred on December 31, 2025, the last trading day of fiscal year 2025, please see the “Change-In-Control” table above which assumes the acceleration of RSUs as set forth in the corresponding footnotes.

Chief Executive Officer Pay Ratio
Chief Executive Officer Pay Ratio The pay ratio reported below is a reasonable estimate calculated in a manner consistent with SEC rules based on our internal records and the methodology described below. The SEC rules for identifying the median compensated employee and calculating the pay ratio based on that employee’s annual total compensation permit companies to use a variety of methodologies, apply certain exclusions, and make reasonable estimates and assumptions that reflect their employee populations and compensation practices. Accordingly, the pay ratio reported by other companies may not be comparable to the pay ratio reported below. Ratio and Methodology For 2025, we estimate the ratio of the annual total compensation of our CEO to the median annual total compensation of our employees as follows:
Chief Executive Officer Pay Ratio
| Annual total compensation of our median employee (1): | $129,974 | | Annual total compensation of our Chief Executive Officer, as reported in the Summary Compensation Table: | $7,683,786 | | CEO Pay Ratio: | 59:1 |
Chief Executive Officer Pay Ratio
| (1) Excludes our Chief Executive Officer. |
Chief Executive Officer Pay Ratio
To determine the median employee, we prepared a list of all active employees as of December 31, 2025 (other than our Chief Executive Officer), and, for that population, calculated 2025 taxable compensation. We did not make any assumptions, adjustment or estimates with respect to the compensation for the employees, but we did annualize the compensation for full-time employees not employed by us for the full year. We selected taxable compensation to represent 2025 earnings because it includes wages, overtime (for our hourly employees) and equity compensation. Once the median employee was identified, we calculated annual total compensation for such median employee using the same methodology we use for our NEOs in the Summary Compensation Table above.

The Company calculated Adjusted EBITDA for purposes of the Pay Versus Performance Table calculated as net income (loss) attributable to the Company adjusted to add back interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation, amortization, and adjusted for certain identified infrequently occurring items, non-cash items, and items that are not attributable to or indicative of our on-going operations or that may obscure our underlying results and trends that do not relate to interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation or amortization, and adjusted to include income (loss) attributable to non-controlling interests. For purposes of the 2025 AIP, Adjusted EBITDA excludes the impact of small refinery exemptions from renewable fuel standards. |
