Board Recommendation
| | Our Board unanimously recommends that you vote “FOR” the election of each of Daniel Ninivaggi, Paul Camuti, Joachim Drees, D’aun Norman, Olivier Rabiller, Julia Steyn, Steven Tesoriere, and Jeffrey Vanneste as directors. |
Board Recommendation
Our Board is currently comprised of eight directors. As described in our Third Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (our “Certificate of Incorporation”), all director nominees will stand for election for one-year terms, to hold office until the next annual meeting of shareholders and until his or her respective successor shall have been duly elected and qualified or until his or her earlier resignation or removal. If you return a duly executed proxy card without specifying how your shares are to be voted, the persons named as proxies will vote to elect all eight nominees as directors. Each nominee has consented to be nominated and has indicated their willingness to serve if elected. However, if any director nominee should be unable to serve, or for good cause will not serve, the shares of common stock represented by proxies may be voted for a substitute nominee designated by our Board. Our Board has no reason to believe that any of the nominees will be unable to serve if elected.
Director Resignation Policy
Director Resignation Policy In accordance with our Fifth Amended and Restated By-laws (our “By-laws”) and our Corporate Governance Guidelines, upon appointment, election, or re-nomination to the Board, directors must agree to submit an irrevocable resignation effective upon the director’s failure to receive a majority of the votes cast in an uncontested election. If a director fails to receive a majority of votes cast, the Board will have 90 days from the date the election results are certified to make a decision whether to accept or reject the resignation. Once the Board makes its decision, the Company will promptly make a public announcement of the Board’s decision. If the Board rejects the resignation, the public announcement will include a statement regarding the reasons for its decision. The Chair of the Nominating & Governance Committee of the Board or, in the event the Chair of the Nominating & Governance Committee did not receive a majority of the votes cast, the independent directors who did receive a majority of the votes cast, has the authority to manage the Board’s review of the resignation. Any director whose resignation is being considered will not participate in any deliberations or vote on whether to accept or reject their own resignation.

Process and Timeline for Designing and Delivering Compensation
Process and Timeline for Designing and Delivering Compensation The Talent Management & Compensation Committee is responsible for evaluating programs and processes for annual and long-term executive compensation and for assessing the organizational structure and the development of our executives. The Talent Management & Compensation Committee follows a robust process to review and propose to the Board for approval all compensation decisions regarding the NEOs. These decisions are based on peer group and market data and are supported by the review and advice of an independent compensation consultant. Role of Management To assist the Talent Management & Compensation Committee in making its determination, our Chief Executive Officer provides recommendations annually to the Talent Management & Compensation Committee regarding the compensation of all other NEOs (i.e., other than himself) based on the Company’s overall performance for the period and his assessment of the individual contributions of each of the other NEOs to our success. Our NEOs play no role in their own compensation determinations other than to discuss their performance with our Chief Executive Officer, or in the case of the Chief Executive Officer, with the Talent Management & Compensation Committee and the Non-Executive Chair of the Board. Our senior management also supports the Talent Management & Compensation Committee by developing recommendations for specific award designs, including metric assessment, performance goal-setting, and program administration. While members of our senior management may attend the meetings of the Talent Management & Compensation Committee, they do not attend executive sessions or any portion of meetings during which their own compensation is discussed. Role of Independent Compensation Consultant The Talent Management & Compensation Committee retains Meridian Compensation Partners, LLC (“Meridian”) as its independent compensation consultant. Meridian assists the Talent Management & Compensation Committee in its evaluation of the compensation provided to our Chief Executive Officer and other NEOs and the design of such executive compensation programs. Meridian attends Talent Management & Compensation Committee meetings throughout the year and provides information, research, and analysis pertaining to executive compensation and governance as requested by the Talent Management & Compensation Committee and the Board. Other than advising the Talent Management & Compensation Committee and senior management, as described above, Meridian did not provide any services to the Company in 2025. The Talent Management & Compensation Committee has considered the independence of Meridian, consistent with the requirements of Nasdaq, and has determined that Meridian is independent. Further, pursuant to SEC rules, the Talent Management & Compensation Committee conducted a conflicts of interest assessment and determined that there is no conflict of interest resulting from working with Meridian. The Talent Management & Compensation Committee intends to reassess the independence of its advisor at least annually. Executive Compensation Peer Group In 2024, Meridian worked with the Talent Management & Compensation Committee and senior management to review the Garrett compensation peer group of companies to be used for market comparison purposes in terms of executive pay levels and practices for fiscal year 2025. Meridian assessed our peer group against the following characteristics, which are consistent with criteria historically reviewed:
Process and Timeline for Designing and Delivering Compensation
In May 2025, the Talent Management & Compensation Committee made changes to the peer group, removing HELLA GmbH & Co KGaA given its combination into FORVIA SE and TI Fluid Systems plc after the company was acquired in April 2025. This revised peer group was utilized in the determination of executive compensation levels and practices for fiscal year 2026. The Talent Management & Compensation Committee will continually evaluate the peer group to ensure that it remains an appropriate market reference going forward and continues to suit our business needs. In addition to reviewing information regarding the peer group, our Talent Management & Compensation Committee also leverages broader market survey and data sources to guide the establishment of our executive compensation programs.
Short-Term Incentive Compensation Plan (“ICP”) Awards

Each NEO’s target ICP opportunity is based upon a percentage of base salary. The target ICP awards for each NEO, as a percentage of base salary, are set forth below:

| Named Executive Officer | 2025 Target ICP Opportunity (% of Base Salary) | | Olivier Rabiller | 140% | | Sean Deason | 80% | | Craig Balis | 70% | | Thierry Mabru | 70% | | Jérôme Maironi | 65% |
Short-Term Incentive Compensation Plan (“ICP”) Awards
For 2025, the ICP payout was based in part on the achievement of objective Company performance criteria (the “Company Performance Portion”), which represented 75% of the award opportunity, and on the achievement of individual performance goals (the “Individual Performance Portion”), which represented the remaining 25% of the award opportunity. Company Performance. The 2025 ICP award opportunities under the Company Performance Portion were based on the achievement of three financial performance criteria: Adjusted EBITDA ($M), Adjusted EBITDA Margin (%) and Adjusted Free Cash Flow Conversion (%), weighted as shown in the table below. Performance goals for each metric were established at threshold, target and maximum levels. Payout for achievement at or above maximum for each metric was capped at 200% of target, and achievement below threshold would result in no payout. Straight-line interpolation is used to calculate payouts associated with results falling between goals. The goals were set at levels that were expected to be challenging but achievable at the outset of the year. The following table sets forth the applicable goals and achievements for each measure:

Short-Term Incentive Compensation Plan (“ICP”) Awards
Individual Performance. Effective for 2023 and onwards, the Talent Management & Compensation Committee determines the bonus pool for the individual ICP payout which represents 25% of the award opportunity. Our Chief Executive Officer recommends individual payouts (such payout capped at 200% of target) for our NEOs to the Talent Management & Compensation Committee and the Board for approval. The Chief Executive Officer’s payout allocation is determined by our Talent Management & Compensation Committee and the Board based on his achievement of the individual performance goals. For 2025, the Talent Management & Compensation Committee determined the achievement of individual goals was above target. The ultimate allocations for our NEOs, including our Chief Executive Officer, under the bonus pool are set forth in the ICP pay-out table below.

Short-Term Incentive Compensation Plan (“ICP”) Awards
Individual performance goals for the NEOs are typically developed during the Company’s annual strategic planning to ensure rigor and business alignment, and the year-end performance assessment is performed using a formal process that matches actual performance and behaviors against established expectations. The Company Performance Portion and the Individual Performance Portion for each NEO are weighted 75% and 25%, respectively, to determine the total ICP payout for each NEO. The 2025 annual cash payments paid to our NEOs under the ICP are as follows:
Short-Term Incentive Compensation Plan (“ICP”) Awards
| Named Executive Officer | 2025 Total ICP Payout | | | | Earned ($) | Payout as % Target (%) | | Olivier Rabiller | $2,099,745 | 122% | | Sean Deason | $714,057 | 116% | | Craig Balis | $450,086 | 114% | | Thierry Mabru | $460,828 | 115% | | Jérôme Maironi | $417,293 | 107% |
Short-Term Incentive Compensation Plan (“ICP”) Awards
The actual annual cash payments payable for 2025 under the ICP are set forth in the Summary Compensation Table below in the column titled “Non-Equity Incentive Plan Compensation.”
Equity Awards
Equity Awards The goal of our long-term, equity-based incentive awards is to align the interests of our NEOs with the interests of our shareholders. Because vesting is based on continued service, our equity-based incentives also encourage the retention of our NEOs during the award vesting period. Long Term Incentive Plan (“LTI Plan”) Pursuant to the NEOs’ offer letters or employment agreements (and for Messrs. Rabiller, Deason and Mabru, as increased in prior fiscal years) each of our NEOs is eligible for an annual grant of equity awards with a target opportunity of 425%, 200%, 200%, 190% and 189%, respectively, of the executive’s annual base salary. Under our LTI Plan, 60% of awards are granted in the form of PSUs and 40% of awards are granted in the form of RSUs to our NEOs. The PSUs will vest based on the achievement of Relative TSR, cumulative Adjusted EBITDA, cumulative Adjusted EBITDA Margin and New Growth Vectors (NGV) adoption, weighted 35%, 20%, 30% and 15% respectively. The PSUs vest at the end of a three-year performance period from January 1, 2025 through December 31, 2027 at levels ranging from 0% to 200% of the target level depending on the Company’s performance against the performance metrics. The RSUs will vest in three equal installments on the anniversary of the grant date over three years, subject to continued employment. The tables below set forth the number and value of each equity award granted under the LTI Plan. The “Relative TSR” component is based on the Company’s total shareholder return relative to the total shareholder return of a group of the Company’s peers measured over the three-year performance period, with the payout achievement scale as follows: 0% payout below the 25th percentile; 50% payout at the 25th percentile; 100% payout at the 50th percentile; and 200% payout at and above the 75th percentile (payouts in between these levels are interpolated on a straight line basis). The peer group for PSUs granted in 2025 included: Allison Transmission Holdings, Inc., American Axle & Manufacturing Holdings, Inc., Autoliv Inc., BorgWarner Inc., Cooper-Standard Holdings Inc., Dana Incorporated, Gentex Corporation, Modine Manufacturing Company, PHINIA Inc., Sensata Technologies Holding plc, The Timken Company, Visteon Corporation, Autoneum Holding G, ElringKlinger AG, HELLA Gmbh & Co. KGaA, Linamar Corporation, Dowlais Group plc, Martinrea International Inc. and TI Fluid Systems plc. We made the following grants of PSUs and RSUs under the LTI Plan to our named executive officers in 2025:
Equity Awards
| Named Executive Officer | Aggregate Dollar- Denominated Value ($)(1) | PSUs (#)(2) | RSUs (#) | | Olivier Rabiller(3) | $5,878,068 | 343,849 | 193,582 | | Sean Deason | $1,500,504 | 85,702 | 57,135 | | Craig Balis | $1,104,727 | 63,097 | 42,065 | | Thierry Mabru | $1,062,835 | 60,704 | 40,470 | | Jérôme Maironi | $1,103,096 | 63,004 | 42,003 |
Equity Awards
| (1) The amounts in this column represent the grant date fair value of stock awards calculated in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”), which, for PSU awards, is based on the probable outcome of the performance conditions and Monte Carlo valuation of the market conditions. |

Equity Awards
Changes for 2026 LTI Plan For 2026, the Talent Management & Compensation Committee approved a change to our PSU structure for the 2026-2028 performance period. We continue to focus on Relative TSR and New Growth Vectors (now referred to as New Business Transformation), but the PSUs will now vest based on achievement of Adjusted EBIT and Adjusted EBIT Margin targets instead of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin. This change aligns our compensation programs with the metrics on which Garrett reports its financial results.
Severance Benefits
Severance Benefits Certain of our NEOs’ employment agreements and offer letters provide that the executive is eligible to receive severance payments upon a qualifying involuntary termination of employment, including in connection with a change in control of our Company (referred to as a “double trigger” change in control). Additionally, we maintain a severance policy under which our NEOs are eligible to receive severance payments and benefits upon a qualifying termination, including in connection with a change in control. We believe that these protections serve to encourage continued attention and dedication to duties without distraction arising from the possibility of a change in control and provide the business with a smooth transition in the event of such a termination of employment in connection with such a transaction. These severance and change in control arrangements are designed to retain certain of our executives in these key positions as we compete for talented executives in the marketplace where such protections are commonly offered. For a detailed description of the severance provisions contained in our NEOs’ employment agreements and offer letters and our severance policy, see “Summary of Potential Payments and Benefits—Termination Events” below.
Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code
Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code Section 280G of the Code disallows a tax deduction with respect to excess parachute payments to certain executives of companies that undergo a change in control. In addition, Section 4999 of the Code imposes a 20% penalty on the individual receiving the excess payment. Parachute payments are compensation that is linked to or triggered by a change in control and may include, but are not limited to, bonus payments, severance payments, certain fringe benefits, and payments and acceleration of vesting from long-term incentive plans including stock options and other equity-based compensation. Excess parachute payments are parachute payments that exceed a threshold determined under Section 280G of the Code based on the executive’s prior compensation. In approving the compensation arrangements for our NEOs in the future, the Talent Management & Compensation Committee will consider all elements of the cost to the Company of providing such compensation, including the potential impact of Section 280G of the Code. However, the Talent Management & Compensation Committee may, in its authority under the applicable compensation plans, authorize compensation arrangements that could give rise to loss of deductibility under Section 280G of the Code and the imposition of excise taxes under Section 4999 of the Code when it believes that such arrangements are appropriate to attract and retain executive talent.
Accounting Standards
Accounting Standards ASC Topic 718 requires us to calculate the grant date “fair value” of our stock-based awards using a variety of assumptions. ASC Topic 718 also requires us to recognize an expense for the fair value of equity-based compensation awards. Grants of restricted stock, RSUs and PSUs under our equity incentive award plans will be accounted for under ASC Topic 718. The Talent Management & Compensation Committee will regularly consider the accounting implications of significant compensation decisions, especially in connection with decisions that relate to our equity incentive award plans and programs. As accounting standards change, we may revise certain programs to appropriately align the accounting expense of our equity awards with our overall executive compensation philosophy and objectives.
Responsible Equity Grant Practices
Responsible Equity Grant Practices Our equity grant practices ensure all grants are made on fixed grant dates and at grant prices equal to the fair market value of our Common Stock on such dates. Equity grants are awarded under our shareholder-approved plans and we do not backdate, reprice or grant equity awards retroactively. Our shareholder-approved equity plans prohibit repricing of awards or exchanges of underwater options for cash or other securities without shareholder approval.

Summary of Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control
| (1) Represents the sum of the values attributable to the accelerated vesting of the unvested portion of all outstanding RSUs and PSUs held by the executive officer as of December 31, 2025. The value of the accelerated equity awards was calculated based on the closing price of our common stock on December 31, 2025 ($17.43). Upon the death or disability of the executive, PSUs will accelerate and vest based on actual performance through the completion of the performance period and will be prorated for the date of termination. We have estimated for purposes of this disclosure that PSUs awarded under the LTI Plan are valued based on projecting their performance as of December 31, 2025 through the end of the performance period. Note, however, that the value of these accelerated PSU awards would ultimately reflect actual performance and, accordingly the amounts payable in respect of such PSU awards under this scenario could be greater or less than the amounts reported. |

Each Emergence Grant was sized in excess of a standard annual grant in order to align incentives as of the Company’s Emergence and with the intention of covering equity grants for fiscal years 2021 and 2022. Accordingly, no equity grants were made for fiscal year 2022. |

Narrative Disclosure to Pay Versus Performance Table
Narrative Disclosure to Pay Versus Performance Table Financial Performance Measures As described in greater detail in “Executive Compensation – Compensation Discussion and Analysis,” the Company’s executive compensation program reflects a variable pay-for-performance philosophy. The metrics that the Company uses for both our long-term and short-term incentive awards are selected based on an objective of incentivizing our NEOs to increase the value of our enterprise for our shareholders. The following were the most important financial performance measures used by the Company to link executive compensation actually paid to the Company’s NEOs, for the most recently completed fiscal year, to the Company’s performance:

Analysis of the Information Presented in the Pay versus Performance Table In accordance with Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K, the Company is providing the following descriptions of the relationships between information presented in the Pay versus Performance table. Compensation Actually Paid and Net Income As demonstrated by the following table, the amount of compensation actually paid (CAP) to Mr. Rabiller and the average amount of compensation actually paid to the Company’s NEOs as a group (excluding Mr. Rabiller, “Avg. Non-PEO NEO CAP”) is reasonably aligned with the Company’s net income over the four years presented in the table. While the Company does not use net income as a performance measure in the overall executive compensation program, the measure of net income is correlated with the measure Adjusted EBITDA, which the Company does use when setting goals in the Company’s short-term incentive compensation program and the performance-based RSUs that are awarded to the NEOs. Compensation Actually Paid and Adjusted EBITDA As demonstrated by the following graph, the amount of compensation actually paid to Mr. Rabiller and the average amount of compensation actually paid to the Company’s NEOs as a group (excluding Mr. Rabiller) is generally aligned with the Company’s Adjusted EBITDA over the four years presented in the table. Cumulative TSR of the Company and Cumulative TSR of the Peer Group In accordance with SEC guidance, we have calculated our own cumulative TSR and the weighted peer group TSR from April 30, 2021 through December 31, 2021 and, further, through December 31, 2025. We use April 30, 2021 as the starting point because this is the date the Company began trading under its new class of common stock upon its Emergence.
Non-Employee Director Compensation Agreements
Non-Employee Director Compensation Agreements Each of our independent and disinterested directors (i.e., directors who are not an employee of the Company or a shareholder-designated director, which we refer to as our “non-employee directors”) is entitled to compensation for service on our Board. We have entered into letter agreements with each of our non-employee directors that generally provide a total compensation package that includes annual cash fees and annual RSU grants to compensate our non-employee directors for the time and effort necessary to serve on the Board. Our non-employee directors receive a cash retainer for service on the Board and for service on each committee of which the non-employee director is a member. The Non-Executive Chair of the Board and the Chair of each committee may receive a higher retainer for such service. Cash retainers are paid quarterly on the first business day of the applicable quarter, except to the extent a non-employee director has timely elected to defer such fees in accordance with the terms of any fee deferral program established by the Board. We have also adopted a director fee deferral program, whereby non-employee directors may elect to receive either 100% or 50% of all annual retainer fees for any Board or committee service (excluding any per-meeting fees) in the form of deferred fully vested stock units (“DSUs”) granted under the LTI Plan. Any such DSUs would be settled (i.e. become shares of common stock) on the earlier of a Change in Control (as defined in the LTI Plan) or six months after the director ceases serving on the Board. This program was initially effective with respect to cash fees earned for service in 2024. The cash fees paid to our non-employee directors for service on the Board in 2025 are set forth in the table below.
Non-Employee Director Compensation Agreements
