Board Nominees
Board Nominees The Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee is responsible for identifying individuals qualified to become members of the Board and recommending that the Board select the candidates for all directorships to be filled by the Board or by the share owners. The Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee is governed in this regard by its Policies and Procedures Regarding the Identification and Evaluation of Candidates for Director (the “Policies and Procedures”), copies of which are available in the “Investors” section of the Company’s website (www.o-i.com) and in print, free of charge, to share owners upon request to the “Corporate Secretary” at O-I Glass, Inc., One Michael Owens Way, Perrysburg, Ohio 43551-2999. Pursuant to the Policies and Procedures, in addition to other qualifications, candidates for the Board should be individuals of the highest integrity and ethical character, who value and appreciate these qualities in others. Candidates should not have any conflicts of interest and should be able to represent fairly and equally all share owners of the Company. Candidates are also evaluated on their ability to function effectively in an oversight role and to devote adequate time to the Board and its committees. The Policies and Procedures require the Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee to consider the contributions that a candidate can be expected to make to the collective functioning of the Board based on the totality of the candidate’s background, skills, experience and expertise and the composition of the Board at the time. The Policies and Procedures also state the Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee’s belief that a varied composition is an important attribute of a well-functioning Board and therefore looks to attract and retain directors with a range of backgrounds, skills, experience and expertise that serves the best interests of the Company. The Company maintains a skills matrix, and actively monitors the skills, experience and expertise of all its individual directors with an eye towards ensuring the Board is balanced with respect to key skill sets. Given that the Company is a large, global public manufacturing company, many of the current Board members have skills and experiences from similar types of global organizations. The Board also has strong skills, experience and expertise in other areas, including finance and capital allocation, mergers and acquisitions, strategic planning and corporate governance. The Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee considers the skills, experience and expertise of Board members expected to retire or leave the Board in the near future when it identifies candidates for Board membership. The Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee also considers, in its nomination processes, the recommendations of current Board members regarding particular skills that could improve the ability of the Board to carry out its responsibilities.

Director Compensation
Director Compensation The Compensation and Talent Development Committee annually reviews the competitiveness of the pay program provided to the non-employee members of the Board to assess the need for changes. The Compensation and Talent Development Committee’s independent executive compensation consultant conducts a review which encompasses all elements of director pay: retainers and equity awards. The objective of this review is to ensure the program is aligned with the Company’s pay philosophy, which is intended to align with the market median for non-employee director compensation. The compensation consultant's review also includes a qualitative assessment of the Compensation and Talent Development Committee's practices regarding non-employee director pay. In determining pay levels for the members of the Board, the Compensation and Talent Development Committee reviews competitive market data including:
Director Compensation
| ● | proxy statements of companies in the peer group used to benchmark pay (shown on page 36); and |
Director Compensation
| ● | 25 select S&P 500 companies similar in revenue size to O-I. |
Director Compensation
Following the review conducted in October 2023, the Compensation and Talent Development Committee recommended, and the Board approved, an increase to the value of the Annual Grant by $10,000, to a total value of $150,000, effective beginning in 2024, to maintain the competitive position of the program at the median of the peer group used to benchmark pay and select S&P 500 companies similar in revenue size to O-I. No other changes were made to the director pay program for 2024. Further, the review concluded that the non-employee director pay program did not represent a problematic pay practice. For 2024, each non-employee director of the Company was eligible to receive an annual cash retainer of $92,500, paid in equal quarterly installments, as well as an additional annual cash retainer in the following amounts, also paid in equal quarterly installments, for each committee in which such director participated as a member (including as Chair):
Director Compensation
| ● | Audit Committee - $20,000 |
Director Compensation
| ● | Compensation and Talent Development Committee - $15,000 |
Director Compensation
| ● | Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee - $10,000 |
Director Compensation
Chairs were also eligible to receive additional annual cash retainers paid in equal quarterly installments as follows:

| ● | Independent Board Chair - $150,000 |
Director Compensation
| ● | Audit Committee Chair - $25,000 |

Director Compensation
Each non-employee director also received, on the date immediately following the date of the Company’s annual meeting of share owners at which directors are elected (the “Date of Grant”), a grant of restricted stock units (“RSUs”) with respect to a number of shares of Common Stock having a fair market value on the Date of Grant equal to $150,000, rounded to the nearest whole share of Common Stock, pursuant to the terms of the applicable Company equity incentive plan (the “Annual Grant”). RSUs subject to an Annual Grant are granted with tandem dividend equivalents, which confer on the holder of such RSUs the right to receive dividend equivalent payments for dividends declared over the time-vesting period during which such RSUs remain outstanding. Such dividend equivalents are payable only if and when the underlying RSU vests and will generally be paid in cash upon or shortly after vesting of the underlying RSU. The RSUs subject to the Annual Grant vest in full on the date of the Company’s next annual meeting of share owners at which directors are elected following the Date of Grant (the “Normal Vesting Date”), subject to the director’s continued service through such date, or, if earlier, upon the applicable director’s termination of service due to death, disability or retirement (after reaching age 60). In addition, upon termination of service for reasons other than death, disability, retirement, or removal for cause, the RSUs will vest pro rata based on the number of days of the applicable director’s service from the Date of Grant to the Normal Vesting Date. All RSUs would be immediately forfeited upon a non-employee director’s removal for cause. All RSUs will fully vest upon a change in control, subject to the applicable director’s continued service through such change in control. Vested RSUs are settled in shares of Common Stock within 30 days after the Normal Vesting Date, or if earlier, termination of service. In the event a new non-employee director joins the Board on any date other than the date of the annual meeting of share owners, in addition to the Annual Grant, such new non-employee director will also receive on the date immediately following the first annual meeting of share owners at which directors are elected during such director’s tenure on the Board an additional grant of RSUs with respect to a number of shares of Common Stock having a fair market value on the date of such grant equal to the fair market value of the Annual Grant awarded to directors in the previous year, pro-rated based on the number of days of service in the period from the commencement of such director’s service on the Board to the date of such grant. The O-I Glass, Inc. Directors Deferred Compensation Plan (as amended and restated, “the Directors Deferred Compensation Plan”) provides an opportunity for non-employee directors to defer payment of their directors’ fees to be paid out upon a specified future date or the director’s termination of service. Deferred payments may be made in a lump sum or in annual installments over a period of two to ten years, at the election of the director. Under the Directors Deferred Compensation Plan, a non-employee director may defer receipt of all or any portion of the cash portion of the compensation described above. Deferrals may be credited into a cash account or into a Company stock unit account. Funds held in a cash account accrue interest at a rate equal to the average annual yield on domestic corporate bonds of Moody’s A-rated companies. Distributions from the Directors Deferred Compensation Plan are made in cash.

DIRECTOR COMPENSATION IN 2024
Following its review conducted in October 2024, the Compensation and Talent Development Committee recommended, and the Board approved, an increase to the value of the Annual Grant by $10,000, to a total value of $160,000, effective beginning in 2025, to maintain the competitive position of the program at the median of the peer group used to benchmark pay and select S&P 500 companies similar in revenue size to O-I. No other changes were made to the director pay program for 2025. Further, the review concluded that the non-employee director pay program did not represent a problematic pay practice.
Executive Summary
| ➢ | historical strong alignment between the program’s incentive payout levels and the returns earned by the Company’s investors relative to those of the S&P 500 or its pay benchmarking companies as more clearly seen in the realizable pay and performance analysis covered beginning on page 35. |
Linking the Company’s Incentives to Its Plan and Share Owner Interests
| ◾ | Payouts continue to be tied to attainment of EBIT (80% weight) and FCF (20% weight) performance goals. |
Linking the Company’s Incentives to Its Plan and Share Owner Interests
| ◾ | The Company continued to deliver LTI awards in a mix of performance stock units (“PSUs”) (60% of target value) and time-based RSUs (40% of target value), with PSU awards remaining tied to the achievement of EPS (50% weight) and ROIC (50% weight) goals. Results based on EPS and ROIC continued to be modified by the Company’s total shareholder return (“TSR”) relative to a group of comparable industrial companies to strengthen the program’s ties to share owners’ interests and their returns. Both award types have tandem awards of dividend equivalents to align them with the total returns provided to share owners and are only payable to the degree the underlying awards vest. |
Linking the Company’s Incentives to Its Plan and Share Owner Interests
| ◾ | In determining the potential payout for the PSUs granted for the 2024-2026 period, O-I retained its recent approach of basing results on the Company’s achievement of annual EPS and ROIC performance goals. Performance for each measure is based on annual goals over a three-year performance period. The EPS and ROIC targets for the first year of the cycle (2024) are tied to the Company’s annual budget and reflect expected results for 2024. Targets for the two subsequent years (2025 and 2026) are based on the Company’s actual EPS and ROIC performance for the prior year (2024 for 2025 and 2025 for 2026) modified by target annual rates of improvement: annual percentage growth in EPS and basis point improvement in ROIC. The rates of improvement for years two and three (2025 and 2026) are established and set at the time of grant in early 2024. Achievement levels for each year of the period apply to one-third of the PSUs when determining the initial level of payout. The approach reduced the “boom or bust” outcomes associated with the previous approach, enhancing the PSU plan’s motivational and retention value. |
Linking the Company’s Incentives to Its Plan and Share Owner Interests
| ◾ | Further, for additional alignment with share owners, in determining final payouts, PSUs provisionally earned for the Company’s EPS and ROIC results are then adjusted – either positively or negatively – based on the Company’s TSR results for the full three-year performance period relative to those companies in the Materials Sector of the S&P 1500 index as of the annual grant date. |
Incentive Plan Results: Reflect the Company’s Performance
Incentive Plan Results: Reflect the Company’s Performance The Company encountered significant challenges in 2024 but also plenty of opportunities to initiate a program of “self-help,’’ known as Fit to Win, to improve the competitive position and earnings power of the business over the next three years. O-I’s Fit To Win initiative is already yielding very positive results and we expect it will continue to drive substantial improvements in operational efficiency and financial performance in 2025. The Company experienced tough market conditions in 2024, with sluggish demand, high in-home spirits inventories (especially in the US) and overcapacity in certain European markets impacting net price. The Company took aggressive inventory management actions, and markets began to stabilize in the second half of 2024. The Company is committed to optimizing its supply chain – working with suppliers and customers; enhancing productivity; and reducing total enterprise costs to position the Company well for future success. O-I remains determined and dedicated to delivering value to its shareholders through disciplined execution of its business turnaround plan.

The ultimate goal of the Company’s new vision is to increase shareholder value by achieving a competitive cost position and driving profitable growth. The Fit to Win initiative will deliver immediate cost benefits, while the long-term strategy focuses on substantially improving the competitive position. By deepening penetration in core markets and expanding into development and seedling markets, the Company aims to achieve sustainable earnings and cash flow improvement, higher economic profit, and shareholder value.
Incentive Plan Results: Reflect the Company’s Performance
| Incentive Program Performance Results | 2024 STI Program – 0% Payout Delivered EBIT (as defined on page 39) of $643 million, which was below the threshold performance level required for a payout for this measure. Produced FCF (as defined on page 39) of ($84) million, which was below the threshold performance level required for a payout for this measure. 2022-2024 LTI PSU Program – 114.3% Payout Delivered EPS (as defined on page 45) of $2.30, $3.09, and $0.81, respectively, for 2022, 2023, and 2024, excluding the effect of share buy-backs above dilution, over the three-year performance period ending December 31, 2024, which generated an average annual banked payout of 129.9% (189.7% for 2022, 200.0% for 2023, and 0.0% for 2024) for this measure. Achieved ROIC (as defined on page 45) of 8.71%, 10.47%, and 4.86%, respectively, for 2022, 2023 and 2024, over the three-year performance period ending December 31, 2024, which generated an average annual banked payout of 113.3% (161.9% for 2022, 177.9% for 2023, and 0.0% for 2024) for this measure. Achieved TSR for the three-year performance period of -9.9%, which was at the 42nd percentile of the applicable peer group and resulted in an r-TSR modifier of 0.94. |
Incentive Plan Results: Reflect the Company’s Performance
These results were reflected in the compensation actually earned and paid for 2024 and 2022-2024 under the Company’s short- and long-term incentive plans, respectively, which required management to meet challenging goals, consistent with the Board’s expectations of management and its commitments to share owners. Based on performance against the applicable performance metrics, the Company’s NEOs did not earn a payout under the 2024 STI program but did earn an overall payout of 114.3% of the target number of PSUs for the 2022-2024 performance period, reflecting the Company’s strong banked performance for 2022 and 2023 (with no payout earned for 2024), reduced by the r-TSR modifier for the full period. The PSU payouts for the 2023-2025 and 2024-2026 cycles will also reflect the Company’s performance for 2024 (no payout earned), along with the r-TSR modifier for the full period. Management and the C&TD Committee believe these results are aligned with the underlying operating performance of the Company for the applicable performance period as well as the Company’s stock price performance relative to the stock price performance of its peers and companies in the S&P 500 for the past one-year or three-year performance period (as applicable). In addition, the Company’s stock ownership guidelines and substantial executive stock ownership also created significant alignment with the share owners, as the value of those holdings reflect changes in the Company’s stock price.

Incentive Plan Results: Reflect the Company’s Performance
These payout levels are consistent with the Company’s historical trend of being closely aligned with the changes in its stock price and the returns earned by its investors relative to those of the S&P 500 or its pay benchmarking companies. This is more clearly seen in the realizable pay and performance analysis covered beginning on page 35.
No Problematic Pay Practices
No Problematic Pay Practices The C&TD Committee regularly monitors the Company’s pay practices, which are consistent with good corporate governance and identified best practices. The C&TD Committee has established the Clawback Policy as required by the SEC rules and NYSE listing standards. Double triggers have been established for receiving any benefits associated with a change-in-control. Further, the Company does not offer tax gross-ups for any severance benefits or executive perquisites, with the exception of a tax gross-up on the annual economic value of the executive life insurance benefit for Mr. Lopez (as the C&TD Committee previously determined that it was not in the share owners’ best interest to incur the costs that would be required to eliminate this contractually-based benefit). With Mr. Lopez’s retirement, no NEO who is currently employed by the Company is or was, during 2024, eligible for tax gross-ups for any severance benefits or executive perquisites. The Company’s Stock Ownership and Retention Guidelines exclude unearned performance awards, which is consistent with stock ownership guidelines of other large, public companies. The C&TD Committee prohibits its directors, officers and employees from hedging their ownership of Company securities, whether such securities are granted as compensation or held directly or indirectly. This includes, but is not limited to, trading in publicly traded options, puts, calls, or other derivative instruments related to Company securities, such as zero cost collars and forward sale contracts.

Compensation Benchmarking
Compensation Benchmarking While realizable pay examines the alignment of the Company’s performance and the pay actually realized or realizable by those results, the C&TD Committee also annually reviews the competitiveness of the target pay opportunities provided to the Company’s senior leadership team (including the CEO and his key direct reports). This review encompasses all elements of target direct compensation: base salary, annual incentives and cash compensation (base salary + target annual incentives), LTI and direct compensation (base salary + target annual incentives + target LTI). In addition, the review examines the mix of total pay (fixed to variable pay, short to long-term compensation and cash to stock compensation) and LTI mix (stock awards versus options and service versus performance-based awards). The objectives of this review are to ensure the opportunities associated with the Company’s program are aligned with its pay philosophy, which targets market median but also considers internal equity between senior leadership team members.
Market Data
Market Data In determining compensation levels for the senior leadership team, the C&TD Committee reviews competitive market remuneration data including:
Market Data
| ● | proxies of companies in the peer group used to benchmark pay (shown below) solely for purposes of determining compensation levels of the Company’s CEO and CFO; and |
Market Data
| ● | surveys published by Aon Hewitt, Mercer and Willis Towers Watson are used to assess the target compensation for the Company’s other senior leaders and provide data reflecting the incumbent’s functional responsibilities and the appropriate revenue scope (corporate or region) of their operating unit. |
Peer Group Companies
Peer Group Companies While there is no other company of comparable size to the Company that also focuses purely on glass container production, the group of peer companies used to benchmark executive pay practices and pay levels for select officers is selected primarily from companies in the packaging and industrial manufacturing sectors that resemble the Company in size, business profile, global presence, asset intensity, and other relevant factors. After a review of the peer group companies in July 2023, the C&TD Committee decided to make the following changes to the group used to make pay decisions for 2024: replace Domtar Corporation and The Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company with AptarGroup and Pactiv Evergreen Inc., two companies with revenue within the desired range of O-I’s.

Short-Term Incentive
Short-Term Incentive The Company’s annual STI program is designed to promote the achievement of short-term financial results and motivate individual performance. As a result of the demonstrated alignment of the compensation programs with share owners’ interests, the C&TD Committee maintained the key elements of the 2023 STI program for the 2024 performance cycle.
2024 STI Program
2024 STI Program
Individual Target Opportunities
Individual Target Opportunities Target awards for each NEO are expressed as a percentage of actual base salary based on market competitiveness and considering the Company’s overall median pay philosophy. Achievement of threshold financial performance against the performance measures would result in a payout of 30% of the target opportunity, while maximum performance would yield a payout of 200% of the target opportunity. Target incentives are sufficient to produce median cash compensation (salary + annual incentives) if earned, with maximum incentives capable of producing top quartile pay if maximum performance goals are achieved or exceeded. If no STI awards are paid, pay for the Company’s NEOs would rank in the market’s bottom quartile on a cash compensation basis. For 2024, the NEOs’ individual target STI opportunities were as follows and reflect the Company’s pay philosophy, target STI opportunities in the market for executives with similar roles, the importance of each NEO’s role in achieving annual incentive goals, and internal equity. Mr. Hardie’s annual target STI opportunity at the time he commenced employment as the Company’s CEO was set at the same level of the Company’s retiring CEO, Mr. Lopez. Both Messrs. Lopez and Hardie were eligible for prorated STI payouts (to the extent earned) for 2024 based on the portion of the fiscal year during which they were employed:
2024 STI Targets and Performance Results
2024 STI Targets and Performance Results The STI performance targets and performance results for the enterprise are as follows (dollars in millions):

Total Payout: 0.0%
Total Payout: 0.0% (1) See Appendix A for a calculation of the results for this measure. Management and the C&TD Committee believe this result is aligned with the underlying operating performance of the Company for 2024.
Individual 2024 STI Payouts
Individual 2024 STI Payouts In addition to the Company’s performance in 2024 compared to the 2024 STI performance targets in determining STI payouts, the C&TD Committee considers the individual performance of each NEO in achieving pre-established individual personal objectives. Per the plan’s design, individual payouts based on the Company’s achievement of its performance goals can be adjusted by +/-20%, not to exceed a payout of 200%, based on each NEO’s performance against their personal objectives, including environmental, social, and/or governance related objectives. For the 2024 STI awards, no NEO received an adjustment to his STI payout, as the Company did not achieve the threshold performance level required to generate a payout. For 2024, none of the NEOs received an STI payout.
Payout History
Payout History The Company has a history of setting reasonably demanding goals. Over the past five years, as demonstrated by the chart below, STI payouts for the Company have ranged from 0% to 180%, with an average payout of 106% (before applying reduction for safety challenges to 2021 results) of target. Furthermore, the pay and performance analyses of the actual cash compensation earned by the Company’s CEO and CFO versus that of their peers has been aligned with the Company’s annual financial performance relative to peers. Finally, annual STI payout levels (as a percent of target) have generally reflected the Company’s annual TSR performance relative to the S&P 500 (e.g., payout above target when the Company’s annual TSR is above the S&P median, below target when TSR for the year was below the S&P median).

Long-Term Incentives
Long-Term Incentives Long-term incentive compensation is delivered solely in the form of equity. This component of the executive compensation package rewards each NEO’s contributions to the Company, provides motivation to achieve the Company goals, builds stock ownership to strengthen the alignment with share owners’ interests, drives share owner value over time and is an important retention tool. As a result of the demonstrated alignment of the compensation programs with share owners’ interests, the C&TD Committee maintained the key elements of the 2023 LTI program for the 2024 LTI program.
Equity Grant Practices
Equity Grant Practices The C&TD Committee has established a formal process to govern equity grants. The same process is used for all employees receiving equity grants, including the NEOs. Each year, the C&TD Committee is asked to determine the overall pool (dollar value) of equity available for awards during the upcoming year’s grant cycle. In making a proposal to the C&TD Committee, the Company reviews the prior year grants, current competitive market data, shares available under the approved equity plan, annual share usage, total potential dilution data, and the expense of its equity program relative to its peers, as well as each executive officer’s overall compensation package in relation to the market. Once the overall amount of equity available is determined, the CEO makes individual award recommendations for each senior executive. These recommendations are presented to the C&TD Committee for review and approval. The C&TD Committee works with Pay Governance, its executive compensation consultant, to determine the grant value for the CEO using the same general criteria. The C&TD Committee set March 7 of each year as the common grant date for annual equity awards and has not deviated from that practice in more than ten years. This date falls outside of the quarterly blackout periods prescribed under the Insider Trading Policy applicable to all NEOs. In addition, a common grant date for annual grants minimizes the perception of market timing. The C&TD Committee retains the discretion to make equity grants off-cycle for situations such as promotions, external hires and market compensation adjustments and has delegated authority to the CEO to grant a limited number of equity awards (subject to certain limitations, and solely to individual employees who are not executive officers or directors).
LTI Mix
LTI Mix The C&TD Committee uses a balanced approach to delivering LTI by awarding 60% of target value in the form of PSUs and 40% in the form of time-based RSUs. The C&TD Committee believes that this emphasis on performance-based LTI awards is aligned with management’s share owner value creation efforts.
LTI Mix
| O-I GLASS, INC. 2025 PROXY STATEMENT | 42 |
LTI Mix
To determine the number of PSUs and RSUs to grant, the total target LTI award value is multiplied by the percentage of PSUs and RSUs (60% and 40%, respectively) and then the resulting value is divided by the Common Stock price on the date of grant. For example, assuming an overall LTI award with a value of $100,000 and a stock price of $20.00, the number of PSUs and RSUs granted would be calculated as follows: If the performance goals are met at the end of the three-year performance period (subject to continued service through the end of the performance period), PSUs are settled in an equivalent number of shares. RSUs vest in one-third increments on each of the three anniversaries following the grant date (subject to continued service through the applicable vesting date). Awards are granted with tandem dividend equivalents, which confer on the holder of such PSUs and RSUs the right to receive dividend equivalent payments for dividends declared over the portion of the performance period or time-vesting period (as applicable) during which such units remain outstanding. Such dividend equivalents are payable only if and when the underlying unit vests and will generally be paid in cash upon or shortly after vesting of the underlying unit. The value of the shares received from vested PSUs and RSUs is tied to the Company’s stock price, which provides share owner alignment. The C&TD Committee also believes the LTI mix provides a balanced incentive program that limits compensation plan risk. PSUs have a strong pay for performance orientation and are a large enough portion of overall potential compensation to have a meaningful impact on the NEOs’ total realized compensation depending on Company performance and total share owner return. The use and overall weighting of PSUs focus executives on fundamental long-term financial goals in addition to stock price performance. RSUs are intended to foster long-term retention of the Company’s NEOs, while still providing alignment of compensation with share owners. This combination of long-term incentive awards, along with the Company stock ownership and retention guidelines (described below), promotes alignment with share owner interests.

| (1) In addition to his annual LTI grant, the grant value of which approximated that of his predecessor and is set forth in the table above, Mr. Hardie received a one-time additional grant (also delivered 60% in PSUs and 40% in RSUs) with an aggregate grant value of $1,000,000, on May 16, 2024, as a sign-on award in connection with his commencement as O-I’s President and CEO. While the annual LTI grants and one-time additional grant to Mr. Hardie were made on May 16, 2024, the number of PSUs (at target) and RSUs that Mr. Hardie received were determined by dividing the grant value by the closing price of the Company’s common stock on March 7, 2024, and rounding down to the nearest whole PSU or RSU. These grants were subject to the same vesting conditions, performance metrics and other terms and conditions applicable to annual LTI awards granted to other executives of the Company on March 7, 2024. |

| (2) In addition to his annual LTI grant, the grant value of which is set forth in the table above, Mr. Currarino received an additional grant (also delivered 60% in PSUs and 40% in RSUs) with an aggregate grant value of $100,000 on September 1, 2024. The additional grant was in recognition of Mr. Currarino’s new role as Senior Vice President, Business Operations Americas. |

Individual Award Opportunities
For Messrs. Abrahams, Currarino, and Torno, the increase in target LTI value for their annual 2024 LTI awards was to bring their LTI values closer to the market median level and also to recognize their performance in their roles. For Mr. Torno, the year over year change in value also reflected the change in the CHF to U.S. currency conversion rates (7%). For Mr. Aujouannet, the year over year change in value is the result of the change in the CHF to U.S. currency conversion rates. The amount ultimately earned with respect to RSUs will be a result of the performance of the Company’s stock. The amount earned for PSUs will be a result of the performance of the Company’s stock as well as the Company’s performance against pre-established financial goals for the three-year period.
Performance Stock Units
Performance Stock Units PSUs reward financial performance of the Company over a three-year cycle. The vesting of PSUs is based on the financial performance of the Company as a whole (total or consolidated Company results), as this increases the focus on long-term results that drive share owner value. Payouts in respect of grants made in 2024 are based on annual results over a three-year performance cycle of January 1, 2024 to December 31, 2026. Awards are based on the Company’s annual performance for the full three-year period as measured by EPS and ROIC, measures the Company has consistently used to determine payouts under past PSU cycles. The C&TD Committee believes this design enhances the program’s ties to delivering sustained, long-term financial results.

The C&TD Committee excludes certain items from determining the Company’s performance relative to its PSU metrics: changes in pension/retiree medical portion of AOCI, non-service pension costs, impact of acquisition/divestitures, and share buy-backs above dilution to the extent they are not included in the computation of the related target. The exclusion of these items provides a more reasonable assessment of the Company’s performance and management’s success in meeting the C&TD Committee’s objectives.
Performance Stock Units 2024-2026 Cycle
Performance Stock Units 2024-2026 Cycle The potential payout for the PSUs granted in 2024, which had a three-year performance cycle commencing January 1, 2024 and ending December 31, 2026, continues to be based on O-I’s achievement of annual performance goals for EPS and ROIC over the three-year performance period. The EPS and ROIC targets for the first year of the cycle (2024) were based on the Company’s annual budget and operating plan for the year and reflect expected results for 2024. Performance targets for the two subsequent years (2025 and 2026) are based on the Company’s actual EPS and ROIC performance for the prior year (2024 in the case of 2025 and 2025 in the case of 2026) modified by the target rates of improvement for the year: annual percentage growth in EPS and basis point improvement in ROIC. The rates of improvement for years two and three (2025 and 2026) were approved by the C&TD Committee at the time of grant in early 2024. Achievement levels for each year of the period apply to one-third of the PSUs when determining the initial level of payout, which are then adjusted by the Company’s r-TSR results for the full three-year period. This approach reduces the “boom or bust” outcomes associated with the previous approach, enhancing the PSU plan’s motivational and retention value.

Performance Stock Units 2024-2026 Cycle
The following illustrates how this would work for an executive with a target award of 1,200 PSUs (400 units per annum): The threshold, target and maximum values for the performance criteria were determined considering the Company’s expected annual rates of improvement in EPS and ROIC. When setting the targets, the C&TD Committee’s independent executive compensation consultant, Pay Governance, conducts an assessment of the difficulty of its financial goals from various perspectives, including the Company’s historic payout results, as well as a comparison of proposed goals versus previous goals, public guidance, analyst estimates, historic performance, peer historic performance and analyst estimates for peers. The C&TD Committee includes this assessment as part of its review and approval of the financial targets and measure weightings for each plan year after considering the overall Company budget (as approved by the Board of Directors), the state of the industry and other external economic factors for the Company overall. Performance is based on the Company’s absolute performance. The assessment found the Company’s EPS and ROIC goals to be challenging. No award is earned if performance against each of the measures is below the threshold performance level relative to the targets established by the C&TD Committee. If performance for a given measure meets or exceeds the threshold level, NEOs can earn from 30% to 200% of target for that measure, subject to the r-TSR modifier. The C&TD Committee reviews audited financial results prior to determining the amount of any award earned, and there is no discretion applied to individual payout amounts. PSUs generally do not vest until the end of the three-year performance period, subject to achievement of the pre-established goals.
Performance Stock Unit 2022-2024 Cycle Results
Performance Stock Unit 2022-2024 Cycle Results For PSUs granted in 2022, which had a three-year performance cycle commencing January 1, 2022 and ending December 31, 2024, targets for EPS and ROIC for 2022 were based on O-I’s operating plan/budget for the year. The Company set annual levels of growth in EPS and improvement in ROIC that were applied to actual results from the prior year to determine targets for 2023 and 2024, as follows:
Performance Stock Unit 2022-2024 Cycle Results
| ● | For EPS: 8% and 11% growth, respectively, over actual results for 2022 and 2023. |

| ● | For ROIC: 35 and 20 basis point increase, respectively, over actual results for 2022 and 2023. |
Performance Stock Unit 2022-2024 Cycle Results
Finally, results for each year’s EPS and ROIC results were both assessed over a performance range equal to 75% (threshold) to 120% (maximum) of target goals. Performance for both EPS and ROIC was above target payout levels for 2022 and 2023 but below the threshold performance level required to earn a payout for 2024, resulting in an average PSU payout of 121.6%, before applying the three-year r-TSR modifier. After applying the three-year r-TSR modifier of 0.94, the PSU payout was 114.3%.

Performance Stock Unit Payout History
Performance Stock Unit Payout History Since the Company’s PSUs are truly performance based, the target levels established at the beginning of each performance period represent goals that are challenging to achieve and incentivize improvement over prior years. Over the past five years, PSU payouts have ranged from 0% to 178% of target, based on the actual performance levels achieved, with an average payout over the past five years of 58% (as demonstrated by the chart below). As with the Company’s STI payout levels, historical PSU payouts generally have reflected the Company’s TSR results versus the S&P 500 (e.g., below target payout for three-year TSR below the median of the S&P, above target payout for above median TSR).

Double Trigger Change in Control Vesting for Equity Awards
Double Trigger Change in Control Vesting for Equity Awards Awards under the Company’s equity incentive plan require a “double-trigger,” or both a change in control and a qualifying termination of employment, in order for equity awards to vest upon a termination of employment. For additional information, see “Potential Payments upon Termination or Change in Control” below.

Risk Assessment
Risk Assessment The C&TD Committee conducts an annual assessment of the Company’s executive compensation practices and the relationship between its executive compensation program design and organizational risk. The STI program for 2024 was profit-based (EBIT) and cash-based (FCF), which was similar to the previous year. In addition, while the Company retained its general structure for its 2024 LTI program (e.g., mix of time- and performance-based shares, measures used for determining the vesting of PSUs), it continued to utilize the approach to defining and setting long-term goals, which was initially adopted in 2021 to recognize some uncertainties present in certain of the Company’s markets. The Company also conducted an enterprise risk assessment of its compensation programs and policies from legal, human resources, auditing and risk management perspectives, the results of which were reviewed and discussed with the C&TD Committee. Based on both of these assessments, the Company concluded that its compensation programs and practices are not reasonably likely to have a future material adverse effect on the Company. In reaching this conclusion, the Company considered several items that mitigate the Company’s level of risk exposure.
Risk Assessment
| | ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● | | Risk Mitigation Measures | ● The Company’s pay mix, especially regarding LTI, is generally consistent with peer practices; ● There is a direct cap on payouts (200% of target for STI and 240% of target for PSUs (assuming a payout of 200% of target with an r-TSR modifier of +20%)) and the C&TD Committee has the ability to negatively adjust performance goals and incentive payouts to help limit risk; ● The Company’s incentive plans incorporate multiple performance measures that balance its income statement, balance sheet, growth, profitability, cash generation and capital efficiency, all of which are aligned with its long-term strategy for value creation; ● Target setting considers internal budgeting and external market factors; ● Multiple LTI equity vehicles (but excluding options), stock ownership guidelines and share retention requirements align the interests of NEOs and share owners; ● The Clawback Policy requires the Company to recoup erroneously awarded incentive compensation in the event the Company is required to prepare an accounting restatement; ● The Company has double trigger (not single trigger) change in control vesting for equity awards; ● An anti-hedging and prohibition of pledging policy helps prevent material adverse risk; and ● The C&TD Committee regularly reviews executive stock ownership, plane usage and other governance policies that promote share owner interests. |
Tax and Regulatory Considerations
Tax and Regulatory Considerations When reviewing compensation matters, the C&TD Committee considers the anticipated tax consequences to the Company (and, when relevant, to the executive officers) of the various payments under its compensation programs. Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code (“Section 162(m)”) generally disallows a tax deduction for any publicly held corporation for individual compensation of more than $1.0 million in any taxable year to its chief executive officer and certain other “covered employees”. The Company believes that maintaining the discretion to evaluate the performance of its executive officers through the use of performance-based compensation is an important part of its responsibilities and benefits its share owners, even if it may be non-deductible under Section 162(m). The C&TD Committee has historically considered the potential impact of Section 162(m) as well as other tax and accounting consequences when developing and implementing the Company’s executive compensation programs. However, the C&TD Committee retains the discretion and flexibility to design and administer compensation programs that are in the best interests of the Company and its share owners. The Company follows Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 718, or ASC Topic 718, for stock-based compensation awards. ASC Topic 718 requires companies to calculate the grant date “fair value” of their stock-based awards using a variety of assumptions. ASC Topic 718 also requires companies to recognize the compensation cost of their stock-based awards in their income statements over the period that an employee is required to render service in exchange for the award. Grants of PSUs, time-based RSUs and other equity-based awards under equity incentive award plans have been and will be accounted for under ASC Topic 718. The Company expects that it will regularly consider the accounting implications of significant compensation decisions, especially in connection with decisions that relate to its equity incentive award plans and programs. As accounting standards change, the Company may revise certain programs to appropriately align accounting expenses of its equity awards with its overall executive compensation philosophy and objectives. For further information on the Company’s accounting for its stock-based compensation awards, refer to its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.
Executive Severance Policy
Executive Severance Policy Certain Company executives, including all NEOs, are (or, in the case of Mr. Lopez, were prior to his retirement) eligible for severance under the Company’s Amended and Restated Executive Severance Policy (the “Policy”) in the event that the executive is terminated by the Company without cause at any time, or if during the 24-month period following a change in control of the Company (as determined under the Fourth Amended and Restated 2017 Incentive Award Plan) he or she terminates for “good reason” (as defined in the Policy). Upon a qualifying termination under the Policy, an eligible executive will receive a lump sum severance benefit equal to two times his or her base salary and target bonus, plus Company-subsidized continued health benefits for up to 24 months. If the provision of health benefits, however, would cause a violation of applicable law or a negative tax consequence for the Company, then the Company will pay the executive the fully taxable value of the health benefits in cash. During the two-year severance period, executives will also be entitled to standard outplacement assistance offered by the Company from time to time. If the severance benefits, along with any other payments occurring in connection with a change in control, were to cause the executive to be subject to the excise tax provisions of Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code, then the amount of the severance benefits will either be reduced, such that the excise tax would not be applicable, or the executive will be entitled to retain his or her full severance benefits (with the executive responsible for paying any tax obligations), whichever results in the better after-tax position to the executive. In exchange for being eligible for the severance benefits under the Policy, an executive must enter into a restrictive covenant agreeing not to compete with the Company or solicit the Company’s employees for a period of two years following termination of service to the extent enforceable in the applicable jurisdiction. Additionally, in order to receive severance under the Policy, the executives must agree not to disclose confidential information or disparage the Company and must sign a release of claims in favor of the Company before receiving any severance under the Policy. If the executive is a party to an agreement providing severance benefits, he or she will receive benefits under either the Policy or such other agreement, whichever provides the greater benefit, but may not receive severance under both.

Executive Compensation Consultant
Executive Compensation Consultant To assist the C&TD Committee in carrying out its duties and responsibilities, the C&TD Committee engages the services of an executive compensation consultant. The consultant provides the C&TD Committee with competitive market compensation data for senior executives and information on current issues and trends on executive compensation program design and governance; advises the C&TD Committee on the overall design and implementation of the Company’s executive compensation programs and provides various analyses related to incentive plan structure and award levels; assists with proxy disclosure requirements; and provides ongoing advice to the C&TD Committee on regulatory and other technical developments that may affect the Company’s executive compensation programs. For 2024, the C&TD Committee continued to engage Pay Governance as its executive compensation consultant. The Company does not, and did not in 2024, engage Pay Governance or any of its affiliates with respect to any other consulting services. During 2024 specifically, the compensation consultant supported the C&TD Committee by: (i) reviewing the peer group used by the C&TD Committee for benchmarking; (ii) providing competitive market data on compensation for executives covered by the C&TD Committee’s charter; (iii) analyzing the historical alignment of the Company’s pay and performance versus the peer group; (iv) providing advice with respect to executive compensation matters, including annual and long-term incentive plan design, difficulty of the Company’s incentive plan goals, approaches for setting goals for performance-based long-term incentives, share utilization, pay mix, and target pay opportunities for key executives, including the CEO; (v) assisting the Company and the C&TD Committee in considering and designing changes to the pay program; (vi) conducting a risk assessment of the Company’s compensation practices, as discussed previously; (vii) assisting the Company in its proxy disclosure, its Say on Pay proposal, and outreach to proxy advisors; (viii) advising the C&TD Committee about regulatory and legislative updates as well as market trends; (ix) assessing the competitiveness of the Company’s pay program for directors and proposing appropriate changes; (x) determining the Company’s relative TSR performance for its PSU awards; (xi) reviewing the perquisites the Company offers its senior executives; (xii) assisting the C&TD Committee in the CEO transition and (xiii) participating in the C&TD Committee’s meetings during the year. In its capacity as the executive compensation consultant to the C&TD Committee, the consultant reports directly to the C&TD Committee and the C&TD Committee retains sole authority to retain and terminate the consulting relationship. In carrying out its responsibilities, the executive compensation consultant will typically collaborate with management to obtain data, provide background on program history and operation, and clarify pertinent information. Working under the C&TD Committee’s direction, both the C&TD Committee and management will review and discuss key issues and alternatives during the development of recommendations and prior to presentation for final approval. The C&TD Committee also reviewed the nature and extent of the relationship between the C&TD Committee, the Company and its compensation consultant and the individuals at the consulting firm providing advice to the C&TD Committee and the Company with respect to any potential conflicts of interest. The C&TD Committee considered the following six factors in its evaluation:
Executive Compensation Consultant
| ● | provision of other services offered by the consulting firm; |
Executive Compensation Consultant
| ● | amount of fees paid by the Company to the consulting firm, and those fees as a percentage of total revenue paid to all affiliates; |
Executive Compensation Consultant
| ● | the policies and procedures that each consultant has in place to prevent conflicts of interest; |
Executive Compensation Consultant
| ● | any business or personal relationships of the consultant with any members of the C&TD Committee; |
Executive Compensation Consultant
| ● | any Company stock held by any of the individual consultants responsible for providing compensation advice to the C&TD Committee; and |
Executive Compensation Consultant
| ● | any business or personal relationships between Company executives and the compensation consulting firm. |

Executive Compensation Consultant
Based on that review, the C&TD Committee believes that there were during 2024, and are currently, no conflicts of interest or potential conflicts of interest that would unduly influence Pay Governance’s ability to provide the C&TD Committee candid, direct and objective advice that is independent of management, and that the advice received by the C&TD Committee is not influenced by any other economic relationship that either firm, or any of the individuals at either firm responsible for providing compensation advice to the C&TD Committee, has with the Company. To ensure ongoing independence and objectivity of advice, the executive compensation consultant:
Executive Compensation Consultant
| ● | is engaged by and reports directly to the C&TD Committee and its Chair; |
Executive Compensation Consultant
| ● | can be terminated only by the C&TD Committee or its Chair; |
Executive Compensation Consultant
| ● | meets as needed with the C&TD Committee in executive sessions that are not attended by any of the Company’s officers; |
Executive Compensation Consultant
| ● | has direct access to all members of the C&TD Committee during and between meetings; |
Executive Compensation Consultant
| ● | does not permit the individuals responsible for providing compensation advice to the C&TD Committee to act as the client relationship manager of his/her firm with regards to other business for the Company; and |
Executive Compensation Consultant
| ● | cannot directly, or indirectly, through a member of the consulting team, participate in any activities related to other consulting services provided to the Company. |

In general, the present values changed as a result of varying interest rates. |
Pension Benefits
Assumptions for Salary Retirement Plan and Supplemental Retirement Benefit Plan: No preretirement mortality is assumed. After retirement, for the portion of the benefit assumed to be received as an annuity, mortality is PRI-2012 Healthy Retiree tables with no collar adjustments projected generationally using MP-2021 scale for December 31, 2023. For the portion of the benefit assumed to be received as a lump sum, mortality is PRI-2012 Healthy Retiree tables with no collar adjustments projected generationally using MP-2021 scale for December 31, 2023. No calculation was completed for December 31, 2024 as participant terminated during 2024 and received lump sum payments for all of his listed benefits. Benefits are deferred to the earliest unreduced retirement age, which is the later of the executive’s age or age 65. All SRBP and International Pension Plan benefits are assumed to be taken as a lump sum; 80% of Salary Retirement Plan benefits are assumed to be taken as a lump sum with the remaining 20% taken as an annuity. The International Pension Plan has been offset for the SRBP and Salary Retirement Plan only. Assumptions for Swiss Pension Plan: No preretirement mortality is assumed. After retirement, mortality is calculated according to mortality table BVG 2020 Generational (generated for the calendar year 2024).

Potential Payments upon Termination or Change in Control
Potential Payments upon Termination or Change in Control The following tables show the amount of compensation that may be paid to each NEO upon voluntary termination, retirement, involuntary termination not for cause, change in control (as defined in the Fourth Amended and Restated 2017 Incentive Award Plan, as amended and/or restated), for cause termination, disability, and death. The amounts shown assume a termination date effective December 31, 2024. For payments made pursuant to RSUs, or PSUs, the amount earned by each NEO upon retirement may differ based on whether he or she is eligible for early or normal retirement. As a result, the table reflects only that amount they were eligible for on December 31, 2024. Unless specifically noted, each of the payments described below is the same for any salaried employee of the Company.

CEO Pay Ratio
CEO Pay Ratio CEO Pay Ratio As required by Section 953(b) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and Item 402(u) of Regulation S-K, the Company is providing the following information regarding the ratio of the total annual compensation of Mr. Hardie, its current CEO, to the total annual compensation of its median employee for its last completed fiscal year, 2024. In 2024, the total annual compensation of the CEO as reported in the 2024 Summary Compensation Table was $7,466,597. Because the Company had more than one CEO during fiscal year 2024 and Mr. Hardie’s employment with the Company as CEO began on May 15, 2024, his total annual compensation, as reported in the 2024 Summary Compensation Table, has been adjusted to annualize his base salary, life insurance premiums, personal use of the Company’s aircraft, and Company contributions to the Non-Qualified Executive Deferred Savings Program for the 2024 fiscal year, as permitted by Item 402(u) of Regulation S-K. Each other amount included in the 2024 Summary Compensation Table for Mr. Hardie represented a one-time payment intended to cover the entirety of fiscal year 2024 (or, with respect to his annual cash retainers for Board service prior to his appointment as CEO, a pro-rated amount earned for the portion of the year he served as a non-employee Board member) and, accordingly, such amounts were not annualized. After taking into account the foregoing adjustments, the total 2024 annual compensation of Mr. Hardie was $7,970,309. The total annual compensation of the median employee, calculated in the same manner as in the 2024 Summary Compensation Table, was $43,691. As a result, for 2024, the estimate of the ratio of the CEO’s total annual compensation to the total annual compensation of the median employee was approximately 182 to 1. The Company identified its median employee by examining compensation information derived from payroll records for approximately 21,000 employees, with the exception of the CEO. In identifying the median employee for 2024, the Company used all earnings for 2024 (salary, wages, overtime, bonuses, etc.) as reported by local payroll records. The Company annualized compensation for permanent employees who were employed for less than the full year, but otherwise did not make any other adjustments permitted by Item 402(u) of Regulation S-K.
