A Letter from Our Chairman and CEO and Our Lead Independent Director
Dear Fellow Shareholders,
We are pleased to invite you to Triton International Limited’s 2022 Annual General Meeting of Shareholders on April 4, 2018.

The cost of soliciting proxies26, 2022 at 12:00 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time. To provide a safe and widely accessible experience for our shareholders, the Annual Meeting will be borneheld online via live webcast. You can attend the Annual Meeting, vote your shares and submit questions electronically during the virtual meeting by visiting www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/TRTN2022 and entering the 16-digit control number provided in your proxy materials. For more information on accessing our virtual meeting and voting, please see the section entitled ‘‘Information About the Annual Meeting and Voting’’ in the accompanying Proxy Statement.

Triton International achieved an extraordinary year in 2021. Like everyone, Triton faced significant challenges and uncertainty due to the ongoing pandemic. The market we serve, global containerized trade, was highly impacted by disruptions to transportation productivity and further strained by changes in consumer spending patterns, which created a surge in demand for goods. Triton responded to these unprecedented challenges by providing critically needed support for our customers. We supplied large numbers of containers to virtually every major shipping line in the world, and we invested heavily in our container fleet to maintain our deep stand-by supply capacity.
“Triton’s strong performance in 2021 reflects the strength of our business model and our leadership position in the container leasing industry.”
Triton transformed our business in 2021 as we stepped up to support our customers. The surge in demand for containers drove exceptionally high fleet utilization, higher new and will consist primarilyused container prices, higher leasing rates and a large jump in Triton’s profitability. In addition, Triton’s $3.6 billion of preparingnew container purchases in 2021 led to over 30% growth in the net book value of our container fleet. We also transformed our capital structure, significantly reducing our borrowing costs through attractive financing for our new investments and distributingstrategic refinancing of more expensive facilities. We have locked in the profitability benefits of our aggressive fleet growth and low cost financing by extending the duration of our lease portfolio and extending the maturity profile of our debt. Triton’s strong market position and favorable long-term financial outlook were reflected in the upgrades of our corporate debt rating to investment grade by S&P Global Ratings and Fitch Ratings.
Triton’s strong performance in 2021 reflects the strength of our business model and our leadership position in the container leasing industry. Our leading scale gives us significant cost and capability advantages, and we are focused on leveraging these capabilities to provide unmatched service to our customers. We invest in our people and empower them to make an impact. We act with care, but we are decisive, especially in reacting quickly to meet the needs of our customers. We undertook a project in 2021 to identify and articulate our corporate values. In this project, we surveyed a wide range of Triton’s team and later tested our internal perceptions with customer feedback. The key values we identified for Triton include: integrity, creativity, reliability, excellence, long-term view and teamwork. We describe what each of these words means for Triton on the inside cover page of this Proxy StatementStatement.
Our Board of Directors is proud of Triton’s accomplishments, and committed to ensuring Triton’s long-term success. We have an exceptional group of Directors who are leaders in their fields and bring a wide array of experiences to our discussions. Triton has a robust, shareholder-friendly governance framework. Our Compensation and Talent Management Committee works closely with independent compensation consultants to closely align executive compensation with corporate performance and shareholder value creation. Our Board is deeply engaged, with a focus on key levers that drive long-term value creation, including major investment decisions, capital management, long-term business strategy, talent development and leadership succession planning.

A LETTER FROM OUR CHAIRMAN AND CEO AND OUR LEAD INDEPENDENT DIRECTOR
“Our Board is deeply engaged, with a focus on key levers that drive long-term value creation, including major investment decisions, capital management, long-term business strategy, talent development and leadership succession planning.”Triton’s Board also works with our management team to ensure Triton remains a good corporate citizen. We believe global trade is a positive force for the world, increasing global economic growth and expanding prosperity and opportunity. Our role in making global trade more efficient and resilient to shocks like the pandemic supports this power of trade. We are also focused on making a positive impact on our business of container leasing, and in particular, we continue to work closely with our container manufacturing suppliers to reduce the environmental impact of container production. We work hard to provide our global team with an inclusive, respectful and rewarding work environment and seek to support the communities where we operate.
Triton continues to build our Board to lead Triton into the future. We have added two new Directors over the last two years, Annabella Bexiga and Niharika Ramdev. Annabelle and Niharika bring important new areas of expertise to our Board and expand its gender and ethnic diversity.
The global economy and global trade continue to be characterized by a high level of uncertainty, but Triton is very well positioned for the future. Our strong investments have further secured Triton’s position as the container leasing supplier of choice for most of the world’s leading shipping lines. We have meaningful capability and cost advantages, and our strong cash flows give us many levers to drive shareholder value. We expect durable profitability benefits from our extraordinary leasing and financing activity in 2021. All of us at Triton look forward to continuing to deliver value for our customers, communities and shareholders.
We would like to thank the Triton team for their dedication and outstanding results in 2021, and thank our shareholders for your ongoing support.

2022 Proxy Statement11

PROXY SUMMARY
Additional noteworthy accomplishments in 2021 which we expect will continue to create shareholder value over the long-term:
Significant Asset Growth, Leading Market Share of Leasing Transactions and Extended Lease Durations
We invested over $3.6 billion in new equipment in 2021, which drove an asset growth rate of over 30%. We led the ratificationmarket with our share of new container leasing transactions and achieved substantial increases in new lease durations while placing a significant portion of used containers on attractive lifecycle leases.
Lower Interest Costs and Investment Grade Credit Ratings
We refinanced $3.8 billion of long-term debt in 2021 to support the rapid growth of our container fleet and reduce our financing costs. Over the course of the appointmentyear, we reduced our average effective interest rate by 0.90% to 2.91% as of KPMG LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2018;2021. Additionally, we transitioned our capital structure to primarily unsecured debt following the upgrade of our credit ratings to investment grade. These actions have allowed us to lock-in a substantial expansion of our leasing margin and will provide future financing cost and efficiency benefits.
Executive Compensation Highlights
Our executive compensation program is designed to align the interests of our executive officers with those of our shareholders. The strong results delivered to shareholders in 2021 resulted in above-target payouts of annual incentive awards.
Consistently High Say-on-Pay Results
3.“FOR” the approval
Triton has a history of strong say-on-pay results. In 2021, approximately 96% of the votes cast on our say-on-pay proposal were cast in support of the 2020 compensation of our Named Executive OfficersOfficers. Although the vote was non-binding, we believe that this level of approval indicates that our shareholders strongly support our executive compensation program and policies.
The Compensation and Talent Management Committee of our Board regularly reviews and refines our executive compensation program to ensure it remains competitive, supports strategic objectives, appropriately aligns executive and shareholder interests and rewards performance. As part of this review, the Committee has made changes to our annual incentive and equity incentive programs for 2022 as described later in this Proxy Statement.proxy statement in the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” section.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Can I vote in person at the Annual Meeting rather than by completing the proxy card?

Although we encourage you to vote via the Internet, by telephone, or by completing and returning the proxy card to ensure that your vote is counted, you can attend the Annual Meeting and vote your shares in person.

What do I do if my shares are held in “street name”?

If your shares are held in the name of your broker, a bank, or other nominee, that party should give you instructions for voting your shares.

What are broker non-votes?

Broker non-votes are shares held in street name by brokers or nominees who indicate on their proxies that they do not have discretionary authority to vote those shares as to a particular matter. Under the rules of the New York Stock Exchange, your broker or nominee does not have discretion to vote your shares on non-routine matters such as Proposal 1 (election of directors) and Proposal 3 (advisory vote on the compensation of Named Executive Officers). However, your broker or nominee does have discretion to vote your shares on routine matters such as Proposal 2 (ratification of the appointment of KPMG LLP as our independent registered public accounting firmperformance metrics for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2018). Broker non-votes are not counted for purposes of determining whether a proposal has been approved.

What is a quorum?

We will hold the Annual Meeting if a quorum is present. A quorum will be present if the holders of a majority of the Common Shares entitled to vote on the Record Date are present in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting. Without a quorum, we cannot hold the meeting or transact business. If you vote via the Internet, by telephone, or signannual and return your proxy card, your shares will be counted to determine whether we have a quorum even if you abstain or fail to vote on the proposals listed on the proxy card. Abstentions and broker non-votes will also be counted as present for purposes of determining if a quorum exists.

What vote is necessary for action?

Passage of Proposal 1 (election of directors) requires, for each director, the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast. You will not be able to cumulate your votes in the election of directors. Approval of Proposal 2 (ratification of the appointment of KPMG LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2018) will require the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the votes cast. Approval of Proposal 3 (advisory vote on the compensation of Named Executive Officers) will require the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast, although such vote will not be binding on us. Abstentions and broker non-votes will be counted for purposes of determining whether a quorum is present; however, in tabulating the voting results for any particular proposal abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of the matter.

Who pays for the proxy solicitation?

We will bear the expense of soliciting proxies for the Annual Meeting, including the costs of distributing proxy materials to our shareholders. In addition to solicitation by mail, directors, officers and other employees also may solicit proxies personally, by telephone or through electronic communications, but will not receive specific compensation for doing so. We may reimburse brokerage firms and others holding shares in their names or in names of nominees for their reasonable out-of-pocket expenses in sending proxy materials to beneficial owners.

PRESENTATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

In accordance with Section 84 of the Companies Act and Section 39 of the Bye-Laws, our audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017 will be presented at the Annual Meeting.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Risk Management

As a general matter, the Board of Directors has oversight responsibility with respect to risk management for the Company and its subsidiaries. Day-to-day risk management is the responsibility of senior management. The Board of Directors focuses on and discusses with senior management key areas of risk in the Company’s business and corporate functions such as capital expenditures, capital management, information technology, corporate debt and customer credit and collection issues at its regular meetings.

Risk Considerations in our Compensation Programs

The Compensation Committee oversees our compensation and employee benefit plans and practices, including our executive compensation program and equity-based long term incentive plan, and in doing so, annually reviews each to see that they do not encourage excessive risk taking. We believe that our compensation practices, which link a substantial portion of executive pay to Company performance through our annual and long term incentive plans, and require executives to meet minimum share ownership requirements, mitigate risk taking. We also have a policy prohibiting employees from engaging in speculative transactions involving our Common Shares, including hedging or pledging transactions. For additional information on these policies, see “Anti-Hedging and Anti-Pledging Policy” below.

Succession Planning

The Board regularly reviews succession plans for the Chief Executive Officer and for other senior management positions. In assessing possible candidates for the Chief Executive Officer and other senior management positions, the Board identifies the key skills, experience and attributes it believes are required to be an effective senior leader in lightdirector of the Company’s business strategies, opportunities and challenges. In addition, the Board ensures that directors have substantial opportunities over the course of the year to engage with possible successor candidates.

If we make any substantive amendment to, or grant a waiver from, a provision of the Code of Ethics or the Code of Ethics for Chief Executive and Senior Financial Officers that applies(to the extent applicable to certain officers and our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller or persons performing similar functions,directors), we will promptly disclose the nature of the amendment or waiver on our website at www.trtn.com.

Certain Relationships and Related Person Transactions
Triton’s Codes of Ethics described above and other policies discourage conflicts of interest or the appearance of conflicts of interest and provide guidance for identifying, handling and reporting conflicts of interest. Additionally, the Board has adopted a written policy regarding related person transactions. These are defined, subject to certain exceptions, as any transaction or series of transactions:
in which the Company or a subsidiary was or is a participant;
where the amount involved exceeds or is expected to exceed $120,000 in any fiscal year; and
in which the related person (i.e., a director, director nominee, executive officer, greater than five percent beneficial owner of the Company’s common shares) or any immediate family member has or will have a direct or indirect material interest.
Review of Transactions with Related Persons
Pursuant to its charter and the related person transactions policy, the Audit Committee reviews and approves or ratifies related person transactions. Triton has multiple processes for reporting conflicts of interests, including related person transactions. Each year, our directors and executive officers complete questionnaires designed to elicit information about potential related person transactions and/or conflicts of interest. In addition, the directors and executive officers are expected to promptly advise our General Counsel if there are any changes to the information they previously provided. Transactions deemed reasonably likely to be related person transactions are reviewed by the Audit Committee at its next meeting, unless action is required sooner. In such a case, the transaction would be submitted to the Chair of the Audit Committee, whose determination would be reported to the full committee at its next meeting. In reviewing related person transactions, the following factors will generally be considered:
the nature of the related person’s interest in the transaction;
the purpose and material terms of the transaction, including the amount and type of transaction;
the importance of the transaction to the related person and to Triton;
whether the transaction is in the ordinary course of Triton’s business and whether it was initiated by Triton or the related person;
whether the transaction is on terms no less favorable to Triton than terms that could have been reached with an unrelated third party;
whether the transaction would impair the judgment of a director or executive officer to act in the best interest of Triton; and
any other matters deemed appropriate with respect to the particular transaction.
Any member of the Triton Board who is a related person with respect to a transaction will be recused from the review of the transaction. These transactions are also reviewed in the context of making annual independence determinations regarding directors. See "Corporate Governance - Board Independence" for further information.

SUSTAINABILITY AND ENVIRONMENT
As one of the largest buyers of shipping containers, we continue to support efforts to reduce the environmental impacts from container production. As part of this effort, we have worked closely with container manufacturers to reduce the hardwood content in container floors. Our objective is to create a new industry standard floor that is more environmentally friendly while maintaining its long term durability. Specifically, we have shifted a significant portion of our container floors to farmed wood species such as larch, birch and bamboo, and we are working with container manufacturers to implement a floor design that would eliminate approximately 30% of the wood content (by replacing it with steel).
In recent years, we also worked closely with the container manufacturers to facilitate a successful transition of container paint systems to water-based applications from solvent-based applications. This change significantly reduced the discharge of hazardous chemicals into the air surrounding container factories.
We continue to work with container manufacturers to reduce the global warming potential (“GWP”) ratings of our refrigerated container fleet. All of our new production refrigerated containers meet or exceed applicable EU GWP reduction standards.
pg32_iconxsocial.jpg
SOCIAL
Our commitment to doing business with integrity is an essential building block of our corporate culture. This is reinforced through Company policies, communications and training, and informs our approach to managing our people and supply chains.
We believe that investing in our people is key to our long-term success. We are committed to providing fair and attractive compensation and benefits and to supporting our employees’ career development. We believe investing in our employees helps foster professional growth, commitment and retention. See “Human Capital Management, Talent Development and Succession Planning” for more information.
Our commitment to social responsibility also encompasses our global supply chain. We have rigorous quality control processes that include performing detailed inspections and surveys at our vendors, including container manufacturers and third-party container depots that store and repair our containers. We believe these efforts, in addition to ensuring quality production and services, encourage engagement and a focus on worker safety and welfare in those organizations. Our Vendor Code of Conduct, which addresses areas including compliance with laws, anti-corruption, employee health, safety and labor practices, including child and forced labor, and environmental compliance, reinforces our expectations that vendors will adhere to high standards of social and environmental responsibility.

COMMUNITY SUPPORT
Triton is dedicated to supporting both global causes and local communities where our people live and work. Triton has made a multi-year corporate commitment to support Doctors without Borders (Médecins Sans Frontieres), a global organization that provides lifesaving medical care to those most in need, including populations in distress, victims of natural or man-made disasters, and victims of armed conflict.
On a local level, we encourage our employees to be actively involved in their communities, and in support of their efforts, we offer matching donations for employee contributions to non-profit organizations. We support a number of local non-profit organizations that help those in need around the world. As part of these efforts, in 2020 and 2021 we donated to several organizations focused on supporting frontline workers, food distribution and providing critical services for many impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as disaster relief in our communities.

COMPANY CULTURE
Our approach to human capital management is underpinned by our corporate culture, which strives to foster an inclusive and respectful work environment where employees are empowered at all levels to implement new ideas to better serve our global customer base and continuously improve our processes and operations. This culture is supported by a flat organizational structure that enables speed of decision making and execution; compensation programs that emphasize Company-wide common shared objectives; a diverse, international team that mirrors our local communities and customer base; robust training and development opportunities; and resources for employees to seek guidance and raise concerns when needed. As a global business with approximately 40% of our workforce located outside the U.S., we believe a diverse workforce directly supports the success of our business, and we are taking steps to further advance diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) in our Company.
Triton’s COVID-19 Response
We are committed to the health and safety of our employees and their families, and in 2021 we continued to respond to the unique challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic. A majority of our workforce continued to work remotely for most of the year, and we have implemented numerous measures to protect the health and safety of our employees based on local conditions and regulations, including hybrid and remote work arrangements, reduced office capacity and staggered shifts, restrictions on travel, upgraded cleaning practices, social distancing requirements and other safety-related measures. We provided regular messaging from our leadership and Human Resources and held regular virtual Company-wide town hall meetings to keep our employees informed about the business and maintain high levels of engagement. We have been taking a phased and flexible approach to reopening our offices in light of prevailing local conditions and other factors, with the health and well-being of our employees as our top priority.

HUMAN CAPITAL GOVERNANCE
Our Board believes that human capital management, including employee recruiting and retention, talent development and succession planning, are key to Triton’s continued success. The Board and the Compensation and Talent Management Committee engage with management on a broad range of human capital management topics, including organizational structure and culture, bench strength in key business and functional areas, succession planning and talent development, employee recruiting and retention, employee health and safety matters and diversity and inclusion. The Board recognizes the importance of diversity to a global business such as the Company’s and has made employee diversity and inclusion an enhanced focus area.
In 2020, the Board amended its Compensation and Talent Management Committee charter to reflect the Committee’s ongoing oversight of human capital management, including diversity and inclusion.
The Board’s Role in Management Succession Planning
The Board, including through its committees, regularly reviews and updates succession plans for the Chief Executive Officer and monitors management’s succession planning for other senior executives. In addition, the Board has developed detailed plans to address an event requiring an emergency CEO replacement on both an interim and permanent basis. These plans include process steps and allocated director and committee responsibilities. The response plans are refreshed regularly. In assessing potential candidates for the CEO or other senior executive positions, the Board identifies the key skills, experience and attributes it believes are required to be an effective senior leader in light of the Company’s business strategies, opportunities and challenges. The Board also ensures that directors have opportunities to engage with possible successor candidates.

TOTAL REWARDS
We seek to provide our employees with compensation packages that fairly reward employees for their contributions to the Company and enable the Company to recruit and retain high quality individuals. In addition, we seek to structure our compensation plans so that they are straightforward for our employees to understand and value, and relatively easy for the Company to administer.

The Compensation and Talent Management Committee periodically receives competitive benchmarking information on director compensation practices from its independent compensation consultant.The Compensation and Talent Management Committee reviewed the compensation program for our non-employee directors in 2021 and recommended to make no changes at the time.
2022 Proxy Statement35

EXECUTIVE OFFICERS

Cap on Pay
Under the terms of the Triton International Limited Amended and Restated 2016 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2016 Equity Incentive Plan”), the maximum number of common shares that may be granted in any one fiscal year to any non-executive director, taken together with any cash retainer fees paid to such non-executive director during such fiscal year, may not exceed $500,000 in total value. The Compensation and Talent Management Committee believes that these restrictions represent meaningful limits on the total annual compensation payable to our non-executive directors. Our current compensation program for non-employee directors is well within these limits.

The following table sets forth certain information regarding the compensation earned by our executive officers:

Niharika Ramdev received an initial grant on August 23, 2021, in connection with her joining the Board of 1,457 shares which were fully vested upon grant and had a grant date fair value of $77,061 (based on the closing price of $52.89 per share). For discussion regarding the assumptions used in valuing these grants, please refer to Note 9 to the 2021 Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company’s Form 10-K filed on February 15, 2022. There were no outstanding unexercised options or unvested share awards held by our non-executive directors as of December 31, 2021.

(3)Mr. Coulter stepped down from the Board effective April 27, 2021.
(4)Ms. Ramdev joined the Board effective August 23, 2021.
Director Share Ownership Guidelines
The Board believes that ownership of common shares further aligns directors’ interests with those of the Company’s shareholders. Accordingly, the Board has adopted share ownership guidelines applicable to our non-employee directors requiring each non-employee director to own an amount of Triton common shares equivalent in value to at least a specified amount. In 2021, the Board increased the non-employee director share ownership guideline from three to five times the base annual retainer received by the director.
Non-employee directors are expected to meet their required ownership level within five years from joining the Board. Additionally, if at any time a director is not in compliance with these guidelines, the director will be required to retain 100% of the net (after taxes) common shares received until the guideline is met. As of December 31, 2021, all of our non-employee directors had met or had time to meet the increased ownership guidelines. Mr. Rosner, as Co-President and former Board nominee of Vestar Capital Partners LLC, which had been the Company’s largest shareholder until it sold its investment in the Company in the fourth quarter of 2020, was previously exempted from the guidelines as his director share grants and other compensation were paid to Vestar. Beginning in 2021, Mr. Rosner became subject to the guidelines, including the five-year period to meet the guidelines.

PROPOSAL

Advisory Vote to Approve the Compensation of Named Executive Officers
pg13_iconxcheck.jpg
AgeThe Board of Directors recommends a vote “FOR” the advisory approval of the compensation of the Company’s Named Executive Officers as described in this Proxy Statement.
As required by SEC rules, Triton is providing shareholders with the opportunity to cast an advisory vote on the compensation of its Named Executive Officers as disclosed in this proxy statement. This proposal, which is commonly known as a “say-on-pay” proposal, provides shareholders with the opportunity to cast non-binding, advisory votes on the compensation of our Named Executive Officers. Based on the results of the May 10, 2017 shareholder vote on the frequency of holding the advisory vote on the compensation of our Named Executive Officers, and consistent with our recommendation, our Board of Directors has determined that Triton will hold an advisory vote on executive compensation every year.
As described in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis section of this proxy statement, Triton seeks to provide its senior executives with compensation packages that fairly reward the executives for their contributions to the Company and allow Triton to recruit and retain high-quality individuals. Triton seeks to structure its compensation plans so that they are straightforward for the executives and shareholders to understand and value, and relatively easy for the Company to administer. Triton links a significant portion of overall compensation to short-term and long-term measures of performance to motivate senior executives and align their interests with those of our shareholders.
The purpose of this proposal is to provide an advisory vote on the overall compensation of the Company’s Named Executive Officers. Accordingly, the Board of Directors will request that the Company’s shareholders vote on the following resolution at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders:
“RESOLVED, that the Company’s shareholders approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of the named executive officers as disclosed pursuant to the compensation disclosure rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission in the Company’s Proxy Statement for the Annual Meeting, including in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, the compensation tables and other related disclosures of the Company’s Proxy Statement.”
While the advisory vote we are asking you to cast is not binding on the Company, the Board of Directors values the opinions of our shareholders regarding the compensation of Triton’s Named Executive Officers. Your advisory vote will serve as an additional tool to guide the Board of Directors and Compensation and Talent Management Committee in the alignment of Triton’s executive compensation programs with the interests of the Company and our shareholders.

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

This compensation discussion and analysis describes the material elements of our compensation program for our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and three other most highly compensated executive officers (the “Named Executive Officers”). Additional details are provided for each element of compensation in the tables and narratives which follow.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Our Business

Triton is the world's largest lessor of intermodal containers and was formed on July 12, 2016, by an all stock merger of TCIL and TAL. Intermodal containers are large, standardized steel boxes used to transport freight by ship, rail or truck. Because of the handling efficiencies they provide, intermodal containers are the primary means by which many goods and materials are shipped internationally. We also lease chassis which are used for the transportation of containers.

Our operations include the acquisition, leasing, re-leasing and subsequent sale of multiple types of intermodal containers and chassis. Our primary customers are the world’s largest shipping lines. We operate our business through 24 offices in 15 countries, and offer leasing services through approximately 456 third-party depot facilities in 47 countries. Our fleet as of December 31, 2017 included 5.6 million 20-foot equivalent units of containers representing a leasing share of over 25%.

Most of our revenues are derived from leasing our equipment fleet to our core shipping line customers and the majority of our leases are structured as operating leases. Through our extensive operating network we also purchase containers from shipping line customers and other sellers of containers and resell these containers to container retailers and users of containers for storage and one-way shipments.

2017 Business Overview

Triton leveraged favorable market conditions and our financial and operating advantages to achieve strong performance in 2017. Higher than expected trade growth led to strong demand for containers, and demand for leased containers was further supported by an increased reliance on leasing relative to direct container purchases by our shipping line customers. The supply of containers was constrained for much of the year due to a combination of factors. Container manufacturing output was disrupted at many factories in the first half of 2017 as a result of tighter environmental regulations in China, and in addition, many of our shipping line customers and several of our leasing company competitors reduced container purchases in response to lingering financial challenges related to the weak market environment experienced in 2015 and 2016. Triton took advantage of the high demand for containers and purchasing constraints facing others in our industry to drive strong improvements in our operating metrics and a rapid recovery of our financial performance. We also captured a large share of new leasing transactions with attractive investment returns.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
Reflecting our strong financial performance over time, the chart below shows the value of a $100 investment in Triton stock over a five-year period beginning December 31, 2016, assuming all dividends were reinvested. We have compared our performance to the Company and allowpeer group we use to measure relative TSR under our performance-based restricted share awards as described under “Long-Term Equity Incentive Compensation,” using the Company to recruit and retain high quality individuals. In addition, we seek to structure our compensation plans sopeer group companies that they are straightforward for our senior executives and our shareholders to understand and value, and relatively easy for the Company to administer. We link a substantial portionwere publicly traded as of overall compensation to short-term and long-term measures of performance to motivate our senior executives and align their interests with those of our shareholders.

We believe that our compensation policies and practices do not promote excessive risk taking and therefore are not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company. As described above under “Risk Management”, the Board of Directors has oversight responsibility with respect to risk management. The Compensation Committee oversees our compensation and employee benefit plans and practices, including our executive compensation program and equity-based long term incentive grant plan, and in doing so, reviews each annually to see that they do not encourage excessive risk taking. We believe that our compensation practices, which link a substantial portion of executive pay to Company performance through our annual and long term incentive plans, and require executives to meet minimum share ownership requirements, mitigate risk taking. We also have a policy prohibiting employees from engaging in speculative transactions involving our Common Shares, including hedging or pledging transactions. For additional information on these policies, see “Anti-Hedging and Anti-Pledging Policy” below.

Consideration of Say-On-Pay Vote

Our shareholders are being provided with an opportunity at the Annual Meeting to cast an advisory vote on the 2017 compensation of our Named Executive Officers. At our 2017 annual meeting of shareholders, 99.3% of votes cast were in support of the 2016 compensation of our Named Executive Officers. Although the outcome of such vote will not be binding on us, we value the input from our shareholders on our executive compensation programs and expect to seek input from our shareholders to understand their views with respect to our approach to executive compensation.

Compensation in the Initial Post-Merger Period

In connection with the Merger, the Compensation Committee reviewed the compensation practices of TCIL and TAL and the level of executive compensation at selected peer companies. Based on this review, in September 2016 the Compensation Committee adjusted the overall compensation of a select group of senior management including the Named Executive Officers. The adjustments included an increase in base salary and share grants under the then newly established 2016 Equity Incentive Plan. The new base salaries and share grants were intended to represent the new compensation levels for both the post-Merger period in 2016 and the full year of 2017. Accordingly, no changes were made to the Named Executive Officers’ base salaries in 2017, nor were they awarded any additional share grants in 2017, with the exception of a supplemental grant made to John O’Callaghan, as described below in the Grant of Plan Based Awards Table for 2017. The Named Executive Officers were generally not awarded any additional share grants until February 2018 as part of the 2018 executive compensation program.

DETAILED COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Roles and Responsibilities

The Compensation Committee believes that competitive base salaries are necessary to attract and retain managerial talent. The Compensation Committee reviews and sets the salary levels for our NEOs annually. Base salaries are set at levels considered to be appropriate for the scope of the job function and the level of responsibility of the individual, the skills and qualifications of the individual, individual performance, the amount of time spent in the position, internal pay relationships and geographic circumstances. Base salaries are also evaluated relative to the amounts paid to executive officers with similar qualifications, experience and responsibilities at the peer group companies.

The following is compriseda summary of three independent directors: Claude Germain (Chair), David Coulterour Named Executive Officers’ base salaries for 2021. Each of our NEOs received a base salary increase in 2021 to reflect their level of responsibility and John Hextall.continued strong performance, as well as to address pay competitiveness:

Annual Incentive Program
We design our annual cash-based incentive program in order to incentivize our Named Executive Officers to achieve annual financial and strategic priorities.
2021 Annual Incentive Plan Target Levels
The Compensation Committee established a 2021 annual incentive plan that covered all Triton executives, including our Named Executive Officers. The Compensation Committee establishes the target incentive compensation amounts and incentive compensation ranges at the beginning of each year. Target incentive opportunities are set at levels considered appropriate for the job function and skills of each individual and to reflect the individual’s ability to impact Company performance. Target incentive opportunities are also evaluated relative to peer group levels. For 2021, annual incentive compensation targets and ranges, expressed as a percentage of base salary, were established as set forth in the table below.

Looking Ahead
For 2022, in order to increase the percentage of NEO compensation that is at risk and subject to performance and to move closer to the peer group median, the Committee increased the target annual incentive award opportunity for all NEOs other than the CEO from 60% to 70% of base salary.
Payout calculations under the 2021 annual incentive plan were based 50% on Triton’s 2021 consolidated financial performance and 50% on individual performance. Actual payouts under the Company financial performance and individual performance elements of the plan may range from 0% to 200% based on actual performance compared to target goals, and the Compensation Committee is responsible for establishingcould also use a subjective assessment of the perceived strength and overseeing our compensation and benefit philosophies, plans and practices, including our executive annual base compensation amounts,contributions of each of the NEOs to increase or decrease the calculated payout levels. All annual incentive compensationawards earned by our NEOs are subject to our clawback policy.

2021 Financial Performance Goals
The Compensation Committee utilized the following financial metrics in 2021 as they incentivize achievement of annual progress toward long-term value creation and are strong indicators of our overall performance:
Performance MetricWeightingRationale
Adjusted EPS60%Measures our core profitability and success in achieving profitable growth for our shareholders.
Growth in Revenue Earning Assets20%Measures our ability to grow our business and market position in a competitive environment.
Cash Flow Before Capital Expenditures [NEW]
20%Measures cash flow generated to fund asset growth, dividends, share repurchases and other value-creating opportunities.
GOAL RIGOR AND PROCESS USED FOR GOAL SETTING
In setting the annual incentive plan financial performance goals at the beginning of each year, the Compensation Committee considers the Company’s current performance and financial forecasts under a range of scenarios reflecting potential economic and industry conditions. This approach allows the Committee to calibrate annual targets based on internal and external factors which fluctuate over time, such as global trade levels and macroeconomic conditions. The Compensation Committee sets challenging, but realistic, goals to appropriately drive the achievement of short- and long-term objectives and align pay with performance.
The charts below show our Adjusted EPS and Growth in Revenue Earning Assets targets for each of the past three years and our actual performance against these goals. As we have added Cash flow before capital expenditures to our annual incentive program beginning in 2021, only actual performance is shown for 2019 and equity-based compensation plan.

2021 Individual Performance Goals
The Compensation Committee evaluates annuallyindividual NEO performance based on pre-set strategic business priorities. The individual objectives are intended to be challenging. They can be both qualitative and quantitative, company-wide or relevant to the executive’s business unit or functional areas, and they vary for each executive officer. For 2021, individual performance objectives for the Named Executive Officers included achieving target levels for key operating metrics, such as fleet utilization; achieving critical investment goals such as obtaining a target leasing share and target expected returns for new container investments; progressing identified strategic initiatives to further enhance Triton’s competitive advantages; enhancing Triton’s organization, especially in regard to talent and leadership development; and increasing our corporate focus on ESG initiatives.
The Committee determined that the NEOs made significant progress against several of the Chiefmost important individual objectives set for 2021. Among the key accomplishments influencing the Committee’s decisions on the individual performance portion of the annual incentive awards for 2021 were the following results:
Reducing long-term earnings volatility by locking in longer lease durations for new and used containers.
Achieving nearly 100% equipment utilization rate at the end of the year.
Winning a leading market share of leasing transactions for new containers.
Driving superior sale profits for used containers.
Achieving investment grade credit ratings and transitioning our balance sheet toward unsecured debt.
Developing and implementing several organizational initiatives, including talent development, succession planning and DEI.
Nimbly managing the Company’s capital allocation strategy through the year, including focusing on aggressive fleet growth in the first half of the year to meet the continued surge in container demand and rapidly pivoting to share repurchases in the second half of the year as major new leasing activity stabilized, all while continuing to attractively refinance existing debt and increasing annual dividends by nearly 14%.
Continuously maintaining a focus on employee safety, wellness and engagement.
As a result, the payouts under the individual performance goals for the Named Executive Officers ranged from 187.5% to 200%. The Committee did not make any discretionary adjustments to NEO annual incentive amounts in 2021 as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.

2022 Annual Incentive Plan Design Change
For 2022, in order to better align with market practice, the Compensation Committee has increased the weighting of the financial performance portion of our CEO’s and CFO’s annual incentive from 50% to 75%, and from 50% to 65% for our other NEOs.
Long-Term Equity Incentive Compensation
We utilize long-term equity-based compensation for key employees, including our Named Executive Officers, to align their compensation with the growth of long-term value for our shareholders, to motivate them to achieve long-range goals and objectives of the Company’s executiveas a retention tool. The Compensation Committee administers our long-term equity compensation plans and either alone or together withdetermines the individuals eligible to receive awards, the types of awards, the number of common shares subject to the awards, the value and timing of awards, and the other independent directors (as directedterms, conditions, performance criteria and restrictions on the awards. Long-term incentive awards earned by our Named Executive Officers are subject to our clawback policy.
In determining the value of awards granted to the Named Executive Officers, the Compensation Committee considers individual performance, the contributions of each executive officer to the Company’s success, each executive officer’s relative experience and future leadership potential and how the executive officer’s total and long-term equity-linked compensation compare to levels at our peer group companies.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
In 2021, the Company utilized a mix of time-based and performance-based restricted share awards under our equity incentive program, as set forth below.
Award TypeVesting PeriodMix of Long-Term Incentive Grant Value
Time-based Restricted SharesThree-Year Cliff Vest50%
Performance-based Restricted SharesThree-Year Cliff Vest50%
Awards will pay out in Triton common shares, plus dividends accrued over the vesting period on earned shares.
2021 Performance-Based Restricted Shares Performance Metrics and Weighting
For performance-based share awards granted in 2021, the level of vesting will be contingent on the Company’s TSR performance over the three-year performance period relative to a selected peer group and the achievement of specified Adjusted Return on Equity targets over the performance period.
Changes Made to Performance-Based Restricted Shares in 2021
Added a second performance metric. Prior to 2021, relative TSR had been the sole metric used for purposes of our performance-based restricted share awards. Beginning in 2021, Adjusted Return on Equity was added as a second performance metric as the Compensation Committee considered that it would serve as a complementary metric to relative TSR as an important measure of long-term value creation and to more closely align with broader market practice.
Increased the difficulty of earning a maximum payout. Prior to 2021, maximum vesting was aligned with TSR performance in the top third of the peer group. Beginning in 2021, maximum payout on the relative TSR component was increased to at or above the 75th percentile of the peer group. Additionally, the payout formula was adjusted so that relative TSR performance between minimum and target levels and between target and maximum levels is determined by linear interpolation between the relevant payout percentages.
The table below describes the performance measures and weightings from the 2021 performance-based restricted share awards and how those measures align with our strategy.

At the end of the performance cycle, the number of shares actually earned may range from 50% to 150% of the target number of performance-based shares granted based on actual performance against the established metrics.
The peer companies used for purposes of the relative TSR component of the 2021 performance-based share awards are shown below. The relative TSR peer group is substantially similar to the peer group used by the Board)Compensation Committee to assess market-based compensation for Named Executive Officers for 2021 as shown under “Competitive Market Positioning,” except that Textainer Group Holdings Limited (“Textainer”) and CAI International, Inc. (“CAI”), determinesthe Company’s publicly traded container leasing peers, were included in the relative TSR peer group and approvesCIT Group Inc. was excluded due to the Chief Executive Officer’sannouncement of its impending merger. As CAI was also acquired in 2021 and is no longer publicly traded, it has been removed from the TSR peer group for all performance-based share awards.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
Although we have not prospectively disclosed the Adjusted Return on Equity targets for the performance-based restricted share awards, we intend to disclose them retrospectively, along with results, at the end of the performance cycle. Revealing specific targets prospectively would provide competitors and other executive officers’ compensation levels basedthird parties with insights into our confidential planning process and strategies and potentially harm us competitively.

Benchmarking

In 2016, in advance of the Merger of TCIL and TAL, an ad hoc committee of TCIL and TAL directors engaged Mercer to review the compensation practices of TCIL and TAL and the level of executive compensation at selected peer companies. As part of this review, the ad-hoc committee and Mercer assessed the overall target and actual compensationannually assesses NEO pay levels and analyzed the mix of base salary, annual incentive compensation and long-term and equity-linked compensationcompared to a select group of the named executive officers at the selectedrelevant peer companies. The Compensation Committee diddoes not specifically link the target or actual compensation levels of our Named Executive Officers to those at the selected peer companies, but rather useduses the peer analysis as a point of reference when determining appropriate overall compensation levels and mix of compensation for our Named Executive Officers. Mercer also provided survey information about overall compensation and the mix of compensation at a wider range of businesses. The Compensation Committee used this survey data as an additional point of reference. This information was updated in 2017 through an internal benchmarking exercise utilizingretains the same group of peer companies. The 2017 update indicatedflexibility to set compensation levels at, above or below the total direct compensation (i.e., base salary plus target annual bonus plus long term incentive compensation) for the CEO and all of our other Named Executive Officers was below both the mean and median of the selected peer group.

In addition, actual compensation earned in any year may be at, above, or below the median depending on the individual's and Triton's performance for the year.

Mercer selected companies for useAs the Company has few direct publicly traded competitors, the Compensation Committee, in the peer groupconsultation with its independent compensation consultant, selects companies that operate in similar or adjacent industries, such as the leasing of transportation and other equipment, shipping, and freight forwarding, trucking, storage leasing and specialty finance that are similarcomparable to Triton in terms of revenue, asset size andrevenues, market capitalization (in millions).and asset size. The Company’s two public container leasing company peers, Textainer Group Holdings Limited (“Textainer”) and CAI, International, Inc. (“CAI”), were excluded from the payexecutive compensation peer group. Textainer was excluded because, as a foreign private issuer, it is not required to file a definitive proxy statement but rather includes high-level summary compensation information in its annual report on Form F-20;20-F; accordingly, the compensation details provided are not specific enough to be used in the peer group analysis.

Annual Cash-Based Incentive Compensation

Our executive compensation program provides for annual incentive compensation in order to tie a portion of our Named Executive Officers’ compensation to our short-term performance.

2017 Annual Cash-Based Incentive Plan

The Compensation Committee established a 2017 annual incentive plan that covered all Triton executives, including our Named Executive Officers. The Compensation Committee established the target incentive compensation amount and target incentive compensation range for the Chief Executive Officer and President. The Chief Executive Officer and President made target incentive compensation recommendations to the Compensation Committee for the other Named Executive Officers, and the Compensation Committee reviewed the Chief Executive Officer’s and President's recommendations and approved the recommendations after discussion and refinements. Targets were set at levels considered appropriate for the job function and skills of each individual, and to reflect the individual’s ability to impact Company performance. Targets were also evaluated relative to peer group levels, and generally referenced to benchmark data. Under the plan, incentive compensation targets and ranges are expressed as a percentage of base salary, as set forth in the table below.

Payout calculations under the 2017 plan were based 50% on Triton’s 2017 consolidated financial performance and based 50% on individual performance. The financial performance element of the plan included three financial measures: Adjusted pretax income (60% weighting), return on equity (20% weighting) and growth in revenue earning assets (20% weighting). For Named Executive Officers, the individual performance payout was driven by success in three critical areas: post-Merger integration (50% weighting), marketing and container fleet performance (30% weighting), and capital management (20% weighting). The actual payout under the Company financial performance and individual performance elements of the plan could range from 0% to 200% based on actual performance compared to target levels, and the Compensation Committee could also use a subjective assessment of the perceived strength and importance of the contribution of each of the executive officers to increase or decrease the calculated payout levels.

Long-Term Equity Compensation

We utilize long-term equity compensation for key employees, including our Named Executive Officers, to align their compensation with the growth of long-term value for our shareholders, motivate them to achieve long-range goals and to retain their services over the vesting period. The Compensation Committee administers our long-term equity compensation plans and determines the individuals eligible to receive awards, the types of awards, the number of Common Shares subject to the awards, the price and timing of awards, and the other terms, conditions, performance criteria and restrictions on the awards. Currently, the Company exclusively utilizes restricted common share grants as its long term incentive compensation award.

In determining the number of awards, the Compensation Committee considered individual performance, the importance of each executive officer to the Company’s success, each executive officer’s relative experience and future leadership potential and how the executive officer’s total and long-term equity-linked compensation compared to levels at our selected peer companies.

Prior to the Merger of TCIL and TAL, and as part of TAL’s existing long-term incentive compensation plans and practices, TAL granted a total of 140,000 TAL restricted shares in January 2016 to Messrs. Sondey, Burns and Valentine and other TAL employees that have a vesting date of January 1, 2019, contingent upon the employee’s continued employment with the Company as of the vesting date. These TAL restricted shares were converted on a one-for-one basis into 140,000 restricted Common Shares at the time of the closing of the Merger, subject to all of their original terms and conditions.

Prior to the closing of the Merger, in order to align long-term incentive compensation for certain of TCIL’s executive officers with that of TAL’s executive officers, TCIL granted a total of 142,668 TCIL restricted shares on July 8, 2016 to Messrs. Vernon and O’Callaghan and other TCIL employees that have a vesting date of January 1, 2019, contingent upon the employee’s continued employment with the Company as of the vesting date. These TCIL restricted shares were converted using the TCIL exchange ratio utilized in the Merger into 113,942 restricted Common Shares at the time of the closing of the Merger, subject to all of their original terms and conditions.

The shares granted in September 2016 were intended to represent the long-term equity linked compensation for both the post-Merger period in 2016 and the full year of 2017. In January 2017, John O’Callaghan received a supplemental restricted share grant of 4,091 time based shares and 4,090 time and performance based shares, with a maximum amount of 5,113 shares (125% of target) available depending on Triton’s performance against our selected peer group.

In connection with becoming eligible to participate in the closing of the Merger, TCIL and TAL each adopted executive severance plans in an effort to retain and keep executives motivated through the merger and post-merger integration processes. The TCIL Senior Executive Separation Plan was terminated on March 16, 2018. The TALnew Executive Severance Plan expired on July 12, 2017. Followingdescribed below, the terminationnon-compete agreements were superseded and expiration, respectively, ofreplaced with protective covenants that participants, including our Named Executive Officers, are required to agree to as a condition to participating in the TCIL Senior Executive Separation Plan and the TAL Executive Severance Plan.

TCIL Senior Executive Separation Plan

In 2011, TCIL adopted the Triton Container International Limited Senior Executive Separation Plan, (the “TCIL Separation Plan”) in which Messrs. Vernon and O’Callaghan wereprovided benefits to all eligible to participate prior to its termination on March 16, 2018.

Participants in the TCIL Separation Plan were eligible to receive certain severance benefitsemployees upon a termination of employment by the Company without cause“cause” or by the participant for good reason“good reason” (each as defined in the TCIL Separation Plan), subject to the participant’s execution of a release of claims in connection with his or her termination of employment. These severance benefits consisted of: (1) four weeks of severance for each full year of service that the participant had with the Company (up to a maximum of 104 weeks); (2) an annual bonus based on actual performance for the year in which the termination of employment occurred, prorated based on the period of the participant’s active employment for such year; (3) Company-provided outplacement services (up to a maximum cost of  $25,000); and (4) continued provision by the Company of medical, dental, vision, prescription drug, life insurance and long-term disability benefits for a period of up to 12 months (or, if earlier, until the date on which the participant becomes eligible for substantially similar benefits under another employer-provided plan).

TAL Executive Severance Plan

In 2015, in connection with the Merger, TAL adopted the TAL International Group, Inc. Executive Severance Plan (the “TAL Executive Severance Plan”) in which Messrs. Burns and Valentine (but not Mr. Sondey, whose

24

TABLE OF CONTENTS

severance is governed by the terms of his employment agreement, as described above) were eligible to participate prior to its expiration on July 12, 2017 (the first anniversary of the Merger).

Under the terms of the TAL Executive Severance Plan, if a participant was involuntarily terminated for performance reasons, and provided that such termination was not the result of willful misconduct or gross negligence and was not for cause, the participant would have received the following severance payments (the “Category One Severance Payments”): (i) one week of base salary for one but less than five years of service; (ii) two weeks of base salary for five but less than ten years of service; and (iii) three weeks of base salary for ten or more years of service.

The TAL Executive Severance Plan further provided that, if a participant’s employment was either (A) involuntarily terminated by the Company in connection with (i) a workforce reduction due to economic conditions or a decrease in company performance, (ii) a reorganization causing the discontinuance of jobs or resulting in changed job aptitude or skill requirements, (iii) being unable to locate another position after returning from a disability leave of absence because the prior position was filled or eliminated during the leave or (iv) a transfer of job functions to a third party or (B) terminated by the participant for good reason (as defined in the TAL Executive Severance Plan), and provided in each case that the participant did not voluntarily resign or abandon his or her job, the participant did not accept a position within the Company or with a third party to which the Company transfers job functions or sells assets, the participant did not decline an offer of a comparable position with the Company or a third party to which the Company transfers job functions or sells assets, and the termination was not for cause (as defined in the TAL Executive Severance Plan), then the participant would have received a payment equal to eighteen months of base salary and target bonus (the “Category Two Severance Payments”).

Severance payments under the TAL Executive Severance Plan were made in a lump sum within forty-five days of the participant’s termination date, subject to the participant’s prior execution of a waiver and release of claims. The TAL Executive Severance Plan did not provide for any tax gross-up payments.

TCIL Employee Severance Plan

In 2015, TCIL adopted the Triton Container International, Incorporated of North America Employee Severance Plan (the “TCIL Employee Severance Plan”) in which the Named Executive Officers (other than Mr. Sondey, whose severance is governed by the terms of his employment agreement, as described above) became eligible to participate in following the termination and expiration, respectively, of the TCIL Separation Plan and the TAL Executive Severance Plan.

Participants in the TCIL Employee Severance Plan were eligible to receive certain severance benefits upon a termination of employment by the Company without cause or by the participant for good reason (each as defined in the TCIL Employee Severance Plan), subject to the participant’s execution of a release of claims in connection with his or her termination of employment. These severance benefits consist of: (1) two weeks of severance for each full year of service that the participant had with the Company (but no less than 12 weeks and no more than 52 weeks); (2) a pro-rated target bonus for the year in which the termination of employment occurs; (3) Company-provided outplacement services for 6 months; and (4) payment by the Company of COBRA premiums for Company-sponsored group health benefits for a period of up to 6 months (or, if earlier, until the date on which the participant becomes eligible for coverage under another employer-provided plan).

In March 2018, the Company adopted the Amended and Restated TCIL Employee Severance Plan, which provides benefits to all eligible employees upon a termination of employment by the Company without cause or by the participant for good reason (each as defined in the Amended and Restated TCIL Employee Severance Plan), subject to the participant’s execution of a release of claims in connection with his or her termination of employment. These severance benefits consistconsisted of: (1) for those employees with less than 3 completed years of service, a base amount of 4 weeks of pay plus 1 additional week of pay for each completed year of service, and for those employees with 3 or more completed years of service, a base amount of 8 weeks of pay plus 1 additional week of pay for each completed year of service, with a maximum award of 32 weeks of pay; (2) Company-provided outplacement services; and (3) payment by the Company of the Company portion of COBRA premiums for Company-sponsoredCompany sponsored group health benefits for a period of up to 6 months (or, if earlier, until the date on which the participant becomes eligible for coverage under another employer-provided plan). For purposes of the Amended and Restated TCIL Employee Severance Plan, a week of pay is calculated by dividing the eligible employee’s annual base salary plus bonus target by 52.

Following the adoption of the Executive Severance Plan described below, Named Executive Officers will no longer be eligible to participate in the Employee Severance Plan and will participate in the Executive Severance Plan.

In February 2018, the

The Company has adopted share ownership guidelines to help achieve our compensation objective of linking the interests of our executives to those of our shareholders.

Executive officers are expected to meet the guidelines within five years of becoming subject to the guidelines. Attainment of the guidelines is reviewed annually. As of December 31, 2021, all of our Named Executive Officers had met or are on track to meet their required ownership levels within the five-year period. Ownership that counts for the guidelines includes Common Shares,includes: common shares owned directly or indirectly, unvested time-based restricted shares or restricted share units unvested, time-based share options or share appreciation rights, unvested performance-based share appreciation rights, and shares or units held by a Named Executive Officer in any deferral plan. For restrictedperformance-based share grants and other grants that are both time-based and performance-based,awards, the minimum amountnumber of shares that will be awarded under the grant count towards the ownership guidelines.

All of our Named Executive Officers met their required ownership levels as of the date the share ownership guidelines were adopted.

If at any time a Named Executive Officer is not in compliance with these guidelines, the Named Executive Officer will be required to retain 50 percent of the net (after taxes) shares received upon the exercise of any share options or share appreciation rights and/or upon the vesting of any restricted shares or restricted share units until the guideline ownership levels have been reached.

2022 Proxy Statement51

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
Clawback Policy
The Company has a clawback policy to encourage sound risk management and accountability. The clawback policy provides that performance-based compensation awarded to or earned by our executive officers (including under the annual incentive plan and the long-term incentive plan) may be required to be forfeited or repaid to the Company in the event of a restatement of the Company’s financial statements. Compensation subject to recovery includes the excess amounts of performance-based compensation awarded or paid to the executive due to the misstated financial results, and covers awards for the three-year period preceding the date of the financial restatement. The Compensation Committee administers and makes determinations under the clawback policy.
Anti-Hedging and Anti-Pledging Policy
Hedging and similar monetization transactions by a director or an executive officer can lead to a misalignment between the objectives of that director or executive officer and the objectives of our shareholders. The Company’s insider trading policy prohibits employees, officers, and directors from engaging in hedging transactions with respect to Company securities and from pledging Company securities beneficially owned by them, including purchasing Company shares on margin, pledging Company shares to secure a loan, trading in options on the Company’s shares, or short sales of Company shares.
Tax Deductibility of Compensation

Internal Revenue Code Section 162(m) imposes a limit of $1 million per year on the amount of compensation paid to certain of executive officers that a company may deduct for any single taxable year. For 2017, the Company was not subject to this deduction limitation with respect to any of its executive officers due to the way that the Company became publicly-held in connection with the Merger. This blanket exception to the deduction limitation would have remained effective through the date of the annual general meeting of shareholders in 2018 if Section 162(m) had not been amended (see below). Historically, the deduction limitation also did not apply to “qualified performance basedperformance-based compensation” within the meaning of Section 162(m).

On However, on December 22, 2017, the U.S. enacted the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Act”). The Act which made significant changes to Section 162(m) that are generally effective for compensation paid in taxable years beginning after

December 31, 2017, unless transition relief is available (as described below).2017. The Act eliminates the historic exception for qualified performance-based compensation.compensation, unless the compensation qualifies for certain transition relief. In addition, the Act provides that the deduction limitation will apply to annual compensation paid to an individual who served as the CEO or CFO at any time during the taxable year or one of the three highest compensated officers (other than the CEO or CFO) for the taxable year (collectively, the “covered employees”). Once an individual is a covered employee for a taxable year beginning after December 31, 2016, the individual is considered a covered employee for all future years, including after termination of employment and even after death.

The Act includes a transition relief rule pursuant to which Despite these limits on the changes to Section 162(m) under the Act, including the eliminationdeductibility of the exception for qualified performance-based compensation, will not apply to compensation payable pursuant to a written binding contract that was in effect on November 2, 2017 and is not materially modified after that date. However, because of uncertainties as to the application and interpretation of the transition relief rule, no assurances can be given at this time that any our existing contracts and awards, even if in place on November 2, 2017 and not modified following such date, will meet the requirements of the transition relief rule. While it is the Compensation Committee’s intent to avoid the deduction limitations of Section 162(m) whenever possible in order to compete effectively for executive-level talent, the Compensation Committee hasbelieves that shareholder interests are best served if its discretion and flexibility in awarding compensation is not adoptedrestricted, and if a policy requiring that allsignificant portion of our executives’ compensation paid bycontinues to be tied to the Company be tax deductible.

SUMMARY COMPENSATION TABLE FOR 2017

In connection with the Merger, theExecutive Compensation Committee reviewed the compensation practices of TCIL and TAL and the level of executive compensation at selected peer companies. Based on this review, in September 2016 theTables

Summary Compensation Committee adjusted the overall compensation of a select group of senior management, including the Named Executive Officers. The adjustments included an increase in base salary and share grants under the then newly established 2016 Equity Incentive Plan. The new base salaries and share grants were intended to represent the new compensation levels for both the post-Merger period in 2016 and the full year of 2017. Accordingly, no Named Executive Officers were awarded additional share grants in 2017, with the exception of a supplemental grant made to John O’Callaghan. Share grants to the Named Executive Officers were made in 2018, and it is expected that the Named Executive officers will continue to receive annual share grants in future years.

Under the TCIL Executive Severance Plan, in which Mr. Vernon and Mr. O’Callaghan were eligible to participate prior to its termination on March 16, 2018, participants were eligible to receive certain severance benefits upon a termination of employment by the Company without cause or by the participant for good reason (each as defined in the TCIL Separation Plan), subject to the participant’s execution of a release of claims in connection with his or her termination of employment. These severance benefits consisted of: (1) four weeks of severance for each full year of service that the participant had with the Company (up to a maximum of 104 weeks); (2) an annual bonus based on actual performance for the year in which the termination of employment occurred, prorated based on the period of the participant’s active employment for such year; (3) Company-provided outplacement services (up to a maximum cost of  $25,000); and (4) continued provision by the Company of medical, dental, vision, prescription drug, life insurance and long-term disability benefits for a period of up to 12 months (or, if earlier, until the date on which the participant becomes eligible for substantially similar benefits under another employer-provided plan).

the severance benefits that would become payable upon a termination of employment by the Company without cause or by the participant for good reason on December 31, 2017, would be as follows: $3,744,415 for Mr. Vernon and $1,359,099 for Mr. O’Callaghan. Amounts were calculated in GBP and the chart reflects conversions to US dollars based on the November 30, 2017 foreign exchange rate of 1 GBP to 1.3525 US dollar. As a result of his retirement on February 28, 2018, Mr. Vernon will receive severance benefits under the TCIL Separation Plan in the total amount of approximately $3,808,377.

Following the termination of the TCIL Executive Severance Plan on March 16, 2018, Mr. O’Callaghan ceased to be eligible to receive the severance benefits described above and instead became eligible to receive the severance benefits under the Amended and Restated TCIL Employee Severance Plan, as described in greater detail in the following section.

TCIL Employee Severance Plan

In 2015, TCIL adopted the TCIL Employee Severance Plan in which Messrs. Burns and Valentine became eligible to participate following the termination and expiration, respectively, of the TAL Separation Plan and the TAL Executive Severance Plan.

Participants in the TCIL Employee Severance Plan were eligible to receive certain severance benefits upon a termination of employment by the Company without cause or by the participant for good reason (each as defined in the TCIL Employee Severance Plan), subject to the participant’s execution of a release of claims in connection with his or her termination of employment. These severance benefits consist of: (1) two weeks of severance for each full year of service that the participant had with the Company (but no less than 12 weeks and no more than 52 weeks); (2) a pro-rated target bonus for the year in which the termination of employment occurs; (3) Company-provided outplacement services for 6 months; and (4) payment by the Company of COBRA premiums for Company-sponsored group health benefits for a period of up to 6 months (or, if earlier, until the date on which the participant becomes eligible for coverage under another employer-provided plan). Based on the compensation levels of these Named Executive Officers as of December 31, 2017, the total value of the severance benefits that would have become payable upon a termination of employment by the Company without cause or by the participant for good reason on December 31, 2017, would be as follows: $616,269 for Mr. Burns and $550,743 for Mr. Valentine.

The Company adopted effective as of March 30, 2018 the Amended and Restated TCIL Employee Severance Plan, which provides benefits to all eligible employees, including Messrs. Burns, O’Callaghan and Valentine, upon a termination of employment by the Company without cause or by the participant for good reason (each as defined in the Amended and Restated TCIL Employee Severance Plan), subject to the participant’s execution of a release of claims in connection with his or her termination of employment. These severance benefits consist of: (1) for those employees with less than 3 completed years of service, a base amount of 4 weeks of pay plus 1 additional week of pay for each completed year of service, and for those employees with 3 or more completed years of service, a base amount of 8 weeks of pay plus 1 additional week of pay for each completed year of service, with a maximum award of 32 weeks of pay; (2) Company-provided outplacement services; and (3) payment by the Company of the Company portion of COBRA premiums for Company-sponsored group health benefits for a period of up to 6 months (or, if earlier, until the date on which the participant becomes eligible for coverage under another employer-provided plan). For purposes of the Amended and Restated TCIL Employee Severance Plan, a week of pay is calculated by dividing the eligible employee’s annual base salary plus bonus target by 52. Based on the compensation levels of Messrs. Burns, O’Callaghan and Valentine as of December 31, 2017, the total value of the severance benefits that would become payable upon a termination of employment by the Company without cause or by the participant for good reason would be as follows: $510,019 for Mr. Burns, $487,528 for Mr. O’Callaghan, and $423,820 for Mr. Valentine.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

CEO PAY RATIO

The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (Dodd-Frank Act) requires the Company to determine the ratio of the CEO’s annual total compensation (under the Summary Compensation Table definition) to that of the Company’s median employee.

To determine the median employee, we made a direct determination from our global employee population, of approximately 255 individuals. We established a consistently applied compensation measure inclusive of base pay, overtime, annual incentives, and allowances to identify the Company’s median employee. Our employee population was evaluated as of December 31, 2017, and reflects compensation paid from January 1, 2017, through December 31, 2017. Where allowed under the applicable SEC rule, we have annualized compensation for full time and part-time employees newly hired in 2017. Non-US compensation was converted to US dollars based on the applicable exchange rates as of December 31, 2017.

Based on the above determination, the annual total compensation (under the Summary Compensation Table definition) for the median employee is $128,859. Using the CEO’s total compensation of $2,678,488 under the same definition, the resulting ratio is 21:1.

Description of Equity Compensation Plans

Triton International Limited 2016 Equity Incentive Plan

On July 8, 2016, Board of Directors approved the adoption of the Triton International Limited 2016 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2016 Equity Incentive Plan”). The terms and conditions of the 2016 Equity Incentive Plan are briefly described below. This summary of the 2016 Equity Incentive Plan is not intended to be a complete description of the 2016 Equity Incentive Plan, and is qualified in its entirety by the actual text of the 2016 Equity Incentive Plan to which reference is made.

The maximum number of Common Shares with respect to which awards may be granted under the 2016 Equity Incentive Plan is 5,000,000. To the extent that any shares subject to awards have been canceled, expired, not issued or forfeited for any reason (in whole or in part), such shares will again be available for awards under the 2016 Equity Incentive Plan. Shares subject to awards that have been retained by the Company or delivered to the Company in payment or satisfaction of the purchase price or tax withholding obligations will not be available for subsequent grant under the 2016 Equity Incentive Plan.

The 2016 Equity Incentive Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors, which has the power to determine the eligibility of individuals to receive awards, the types and number of shares subject to awards, the pricing and timing of awards and to establish the terms, conditions, performance criteria and restrictions on awards.

Any of the employees, consultants, directors or any other person providing services to the Company or its affiliates, as determined by the Compensation Committee, may be selected to participate in the 2016 Equity Incentive Plan. The granting of awards under the 2016 Equity Incentive Plan is discretionary and therefore, the Company cannot now determine the number or type of awards to be granted in the future to any particular person or group. These participants may receive one or more of the following awards:

Stock Options. Stock options may be granted under the 2016 Equity Incentive Plan, including incentive stock options and nonqualified stock options.
Stock Appreciation Rights (SAR). A SAR entitles a participant to receive a payment equal in value to the difference between the fair market value of a share on the date of exercise of the SAR over the exercise price of the SAR, which shall be payable in cash or Common Shares.
Restricted Shares. A restricted share award is the grant of Common Shares on a date determined by the Compensation Committee, and is subject to substantial risk of forfeiture until specific conditions or goals are met.
Dividend Equivalent Rights. The award of Dividend Equivalent Rights permits the participant to earn an amount equal to the dividends or other distributions payable with respect to Common Shares.
Cash Awards. Awards that are payable solely in cash may be granted under the 2016 Equity Incentive Plan, subjected to such conditions and restrictions as the Compensation Committee may determine.

35

TABLE OF CONTENTS

The terms and conditions of all awards under the 2016 Equity Incentive Plan will be determined by the Compensation Committee at the time of the grant of the award and will be reflected in the award agreement.

In the event that a Change in Control (as defined in theTriton’s 2016 Equity Incentive Plan) occurs and a participant’s employment is subsequently terminated by the Company or its affiliates without Cause or by the participant for Good Reason (in each case as defined in the 2016 Equity Incentive Plan) within the two years following the Change in Control, unless otherwise specifically prohibited under applicable laws, or by the rules and regulations of any governing governmental agencies or national securities exchanges (a) any and all options and SARs granted under the 2016 Equity Incentive Plan shall become immediately exercisable and (b) any restriction periods and restrictions imposed on restricted shares or other awards shall lapse and performance conditions shall be deemed to be fully achieved.

Each award agreement shall set forth the extent to which the participant shall have the right to exercise optionsachieved and SARs, receive unvested restricted shares and unvested dividend equivalent rights, following termination of service with the Company.

TCIL 2016 Share Plan

On July 8, 2016 TCIL established the 2016 Triton Container International Limited Equity Incentive Plan for the sole purpose of making restricted share grants to certain TCIL executives, including Messrs. Vernon and O’Callaghan, prior to the closing of the Merger of TCIL and TAL.

The maximum number of TCIL shares that may be issued under the TCIL 2016 Share Plan was 142,668 TCIL shares, and that maximum number of shares was issued on July 8, 2016, which shares were converted to restricted Common Shares as of the closing of the Merger. No more grants will be made under the plan. Restricted shares were the only type of award that were permitted to be granted under the plan.

The 2016 TCIL Share Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors, which has the power to determine the eligibility of individuals to receive awards, the types and number of shares subject to awards, the pricing and timing of awards and to establish the terms, conditions, performance criteria and restrictions on awards.

In the event that a Change in Control (as defined in the 2016 TCIL Share Plan) occurs and a participant’s employment is subsequently terminated by the Company or its affiliates without Cause or by the participant for Good Reason (in each case as defined in the 2016 TCIL Share Plan) any restriction periods and restrictions imposed on restricted shares or other awards shall lapse and performance conditions shall be deemed to be fully achieved.

2014 TAL International Group, Inc. Equity Incentive Plan

TAL established the 2014 TAL International Group, Inc. Equity Incentive Plan (“2014 Stock Plan”) so that TAL and its subsidiaries could (i) attract and retain persons eligible to participate in the plan; (ii) motivate persons eligible to participate, by means of appropriate incentives, to achieve long-range goals; (iii) provide incentive compensation opportunities that are competitive with those of other similar companies; and (iv) further align the interests of the persons eligible to participate with those of the Company’s other shareholders through compensation that is based on the Company’s common shares; and thereby promote the long-term financial interest of the Company and its subsidiaries, including the growth in value of the Company’s equity and enhancement of long-term shareholder return.

Shares reserved for issuance. The 2014 Stock Plan has been frozen and no more shares will be issued under the plan. The maximum number of shares with respect to which awards could be granted under the 2014 Stock Plan was 3,000,000 and the shares remaining to be issued under the planvest at the time the plan was frozen was 2,860,000.

Administration. The 2014 Stock Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors, which has the power to determine the eligibility of individuals to receive awards, the types and number of shares of stock subject to awards, the pricing and timing of awards and to establish the terms, conditions, performance criteria and restrictions on awards.

CEO Pay Ratio
Pursuant to SEC rules, we are required to calculate and disclose the ratio of the CEO’s annual total compensation (as calculated in the Summary Compensation Table) to that of the Company’s median employee.
To determine the median employee, we made a direct determination from our global employee population (other than our CEO) of approximately 237 individuals. We established a consistently applied compensation measure inclusive of base pay, overtime, annual incentives, and allowances to identify the Company’s median employee. Our employee population was evaluated as of December 31, 2021, and reflects compensation paid from January 1, 2021, through December 31, 2021. Where allowed under the applicable SEC rule, we have annualized compensation for full-time and part-time employees newly hired in 2021. Non-U.S. compensation was converted to U.S. dollars based on the applicable exchange rates as of December 31, 2021.
Based on the above, the annual total compensation for the median employee for 2021 was $136,223. Using the CEO’s total 2021 compensation of $5,768,732 as presented in the Summary Compensation Table, the resulting ratio is 42:1.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires Triton’s officers and directors, and holders of more than ten percent of a registered class of Triton’s equity securities, to file reports of ownership of such securities with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Officers, directors and greater than ten percent beneficial owners are required by applicable regulations to furnish Triton with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file.

Based on a review of the copies of Forms 3, 4 and 5 furnished to Triton, Triton believes that all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to its officers, directors and 10% holders were filed in a timely manner during 2017.

Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions

Triton reviews all relationships and transactions in which it, its control persons and its directors and executive officers or their immediate family members are participants to determine whether such persons have a direct or indirect material interest in such relationships and transactions.

Triton's Code of Conduct, Code of Ethics and Code of Ethics for Chief Executive and Senior Financial Officers discourage all conflicts of interest and provides guidance with respect to conflicts of interest. Under these codes, conflicts of interest occur when private or family interests interfere in any way, or even appear to interfere, with Triton’s interests. Triton’s restrictions on conflicts of interest under these codes include related person transactions.

Triton has multiple processes for reporting conflicts of interests, including related person transactions. Under its Code of Conduct and Code of Ethics, all employees are required to report any actual or apparent conflicts of interest, or potential conflicts of interest, to Triton's General Counsel, the Vice President of Human Resources, the Chief Financial Officer, the General Auditor or other Company management as deemed appropriate. This information is then reviewed by Triton’s Audit Committee, the Triton Board or its independent registered public accounting firm, as deemed necessary, and discussed with management. The following factors will generally be considered:

the nature of the related person’s interest in the transaction;
material terms of the transaction, including, without limitation, the amount and type of transaction;
the importance of the transaction to the related person;
the importance of the transaction to Triton;
whether the transaction would impair the judgment of a director or executive officer to act in the best interest of Triton; and
any other matters deemed appropriate with respect to the particular transaction.

Ultimately, all such transactions require approval or ratification by the Triton Board. Any member of the Triton Board who is a related person with respect to a transaction will be recused from the review of the transaction.

44

TABLE OF CONTENTS

In addition, Triton annually distributes a questionnaire to its executive officers and members of the Triton Board requesting certain information regarding, among other things, their immediate family members, employment and beneficial ownership interests. This information is then reviewed for any conflicts of interest under the Code of Conduct, Code of Ethics and Code of Ethics for Chief Executive and Senior Financial Officers. At the completion of the annual audit, Triton's Audit Committee and its independent registered public accounting firm reviews insider and related person transactions and potential conflicts of interest with management.

Sponsor Shareholders Agreements

In connection with the closing of the Merger of TCIL and TAL, the Company and the Sponsor Shareholders entered into the Sponsor Shareholders Agreements, which became effective upon the closing of the Merger. Under the Sponsor Shareholders Agreements, Warburg Pincus has the ongoing right to designate two individuals to serve on the Company’s Board, and Vestar has the ongoing right to designate one individual to serve on the Company’s Board, in each case subject to the approval by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of any individuals so designated. Messrs. Coulter and Vernon are the designees of Warburg Pincus who currently serve on the Company’s Board, and Mr. Rosner is the designee of Vestar who currently serves on the Company’s Board. The rights of Warburg Pincus and Vestar to designate individuals to serve on the Holdco Board are subject to reduction as their respective ownership of Holdco common shares declines.

The Sponsor Shareholders Agreements provide that for so long as the Sponsor Shareholders hold more than 5% of the outstanding common shares of the Company, they and their affiliates will not, directly or indirectly, (i) acquire or propose to acquire additional equity securities (including derivatives) of the Company, subject to exceptions for share dividends and issuances of shares to the Company’s existing shareholders, (ii) offer, propose or enter into any merger, amalgamation, scheme of arrangement, business combination, recapitalization, tender or exchange offer, liquidation or other similar extraordinary transaction, or offer to acquire the Company (or instigate, encourage, facilitate, join or assist any third party to do any of the foregoing), (iii) solicit proxies or consents (except for any solicitation in furtherance of the recommendation of the Company’s Board), (iv) deposit any Company securities in a voting trust or subject any Company securities to a voting agreement or similar agreement (other than the Sponsor Shareholders Agreements), (v) submit shareholder proposals or call special shareholder meetings, (vi) form a “group” with, or otherwise act in concert with, any other Company shareholder in respect of the Company, or (vii) agree to take any of the foregoing actions, or request any waiver of the standstill or voting restrictions below other than through a confidential waiver request submitted to the Chief Executive Officer or Chairman of the Company that the Sponsor Shareholder making the request, after consulting legal counsel, would not reasonably expect to require (a) the Company or the Board to issue a public statement or (b) any public disclosure by such Sponsor Shareholder.

The Sponsor Shareholders Agreements further provide that, for so long as the Sponsor Shareholders own at least 5% of the outstanding shares of the Company, the Sponsor Shareholders will vote (a) 55% of their Common Shares in the same proportion as the votes cast by the shareholders of the Company who are not Sponsor Shareholders or their affiliates in any election or removal of directors (other than with respect to any contested election, any election or removal of a Warburg Pincus director or a Vestar director or any replacement thereof), and the remaining 45% of their Common Shares in favor of the slate of directors nominated by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, and (b) 100% of their Common Shares in the same proportion as the votes cast by the shareholders of the Company who are not Sponsor Shareholders or their affiliates in any vote or consent on a shareholder proposal or any merger, amalgamation, scheme of arrangement, business combination, recapitalization, tender or exchange offer, liquidation or other similar extraordinary transaction, unless approved by a majority of the directors on the Board and, in the case of an extraordinary transaction, such extraordinary transaction provides equal treatment of all Common Shares.

The Sponsor Shareholders Agreements also govern Triton’s and the Sponsor Shareholders’ respective rights and obligations with respect to the registration for resale of Common Shares held by the Sponsor Shareholders following the mergers. For further information, please see the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-4 filed with the SEC on December 24, 2015, as amended, under “Related Agreements - The Sponsor Shareholders Agreements.”

Householding of Proxy Materials

The SEC has adopted rules that permit companies and intermediaries such as brokers to satisfy delivery requirements for Proxy Statements with respect to two or more shareholders sharing the same address by delivering a single Proxy Statement addressed to those shareholders. This process, which is commonly referred to as “householding,” potentially provides extra convenience for shareholders and cost savings for companies. We and some brokers may household proxy materials, delivering a single Proxy Statement to multiple shareholders sharing an address unless contrary instructions have been received from the affected shareholders. Once shareholders have received notice from their broker or us that materials will be sent in the householding manner to the shareholders’ address, householding will continue until otherwise notified or until the shareholder revokes such consent. If, at any time, shareholders no longer wish to participate in householding and would prefer to receive a separate Proxy Statement, they should notify their broker if shares are held in a brokerage account or us if holding registered shares. Any beneficial owner can request (i) to receive a separate copy of an annual report or Proxy Statement for this meeting, (ii) to receive separate copies of those materials for future meetings, or (iii) if the shareholder shares an address and wishes to request delivery of a single copy of annual reports or Proxy Statements, you can make your request in writing to your broker.
