The proxies may be revoked at any time prior to their exercise by giving notice to us in writing or by executing and delivering a later dated proxy. Attendance at the Annual Meeting will not automatically revoke a proxy, but a stockholder of record attending the Annual Meeting may request a ballot and vote in person, thereby revoking a previously granted proxy.
Stockholders of record at the close of business on March 18, 201922, 2022 will be entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Annual Meeting.

The inspectors of election intend to treat properly executed proxies marked "abstain" as "present" for purposes of determining whether a quorum has been achieved at the Annual Meeting. The inspectors of election will also treat proxies held in "street name" by brokers that are voted on at least one, but not all, of the proposals to come before the Annual Meeting ("broker non-votes") as "present" for purposes of determining whether a quorum has been achieved at the Annual Meeting.
In accordance with Delaware law, the eleventwelve director nominees receiving the greatest number of votes will be elected directors.

Board Leadership Structure
The Board believes that it is prudent and in the best interests of stockholders that the CEO and Chairman positions be combined and that such combination has no negative effect on the operation or direction of the Company. Alfred M.Mr. A. Rankin, Jr., the Company's CEO, is the most appropriate person to serve as our Chairman because he possesses in-depth knowledge of the issues, opportunities and challenges facing our business. Because of this knowledge and insight, the Board of Directors believes that Mr. A. Rankin is in the best position to effectively identify strategic opportunities and priorities and to lead discussions regarding the execution of the Company's strategies and achievement of its objectives. As Chairman, our CEO is able to:
•focus our Board of Directors on the most significant strategic goals and risks of our business;
•utilize the individual qualifications, skills and experience of the other members of the Board of Directors to maximize their contributions to our Board of Directors;
•assess whether each other member of our Board of Directors has sufficient knowledge and understanding of our business to enable them to make informed judgments;
•promote a seamless flow of information to our Board of Directors;
•facilitate the flow of information between our Board of Directors and our management; and
•provide the perspective of a long-term stockholder.
In addition, Colin Wilsona separate CEO is responsible for the CEOday-to-day operations of our principal operating subsidiary, Hyster-Yale Group, Inc. ("HYG"), and as such is responsible for the day-to-day operations of the business.. This arrangement allows Mr. A. Rankin to focus almost exclusively on the strategic opportunities and priorities of the overall business.
We do not assign a lead independent director, but the Chairman of our Compensation Committee presides at the regularly-scheduleddirector. At meetings of non-management directors.the independent directors, the principal subject matter of each meeting determines the committee chair who will preside at such meeting.
Board Oversight of Risk Management
The Board believes that strong and effective controls and risk management processes are essential components needed to achieve long-term stockholder value. The Board, directly and through its committees, is responsible for overseeing risks that potentially affect the Company. Each Board committee is responsible for oversight of risk categories related to the Committee'scommittee's specific function, while our full Board exercises ultimate responsibility for overseeing the risk management as a whole. The respective areas of risk oversight exercised by our Board and its committees are as follows:

Board/CommitteePrimary Areas of Risk Oversight
Full Board•Oversees overall Company risk management procedures, including operational and strategic, and regularly receives and evaluates reports and presentations from the Chairschairs of the Audit Review, NCG, Compensation, NCG, Planning Advisory and Finance Committees on risk-related matters falling within each respective committee's oversight responsibilities
Audit Review Committee•Oversees financial and legal risks by regularly reviewing reports and presentations given by management, including our Senior Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary, Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, and Director, Internal Audit, as well as other operational Company personnel, and evaluates potential related-person transactions
•Regularly reviews our risk management practices and risk-related policies (for example, the Company's Code of Corporate Conduct and legal and regulatory reviews) and evaluates potential risks related to internal control over financial reporting
•Reviews risks related to ESG disclosures
•Reviews risks related to information technology and cybersecurity, which includes reviewing the state of our cybersecurity program and emerging cybersecurity developments and threats, as well as steps management has taken to monitor and mitigate such exposures
NCG Committee•Oversees potential risks related to our governance practices by, among other things, reviewing succession plans and performance evaluations of the Board and CEO

Governance
Our Board has determined that, based primarily on the ownership of Class A Common and Class B Common by the members of the Taplin and Rankin families, we may qualify as a "controlled company," as defined in Section 303A of the listing standards of the NYSE. Under the listing standards of the NYSE, a controlled company is not required to comply with certain corporate governance requirements. Such requirements include having a majority of independent directors and having an audit review committee, nominating and corporate governance and compensation committee composed entirely of independent directors, each with written charters and annual performance evaluations for each committee.
Although Hyster-Yale may qualify as a controlled company, our Board evaluates its governance practices annually and has elected not to make use of any of the exceptions to the NYSE listing standards that are available to controlled companies. Accordingly, the majority of the members of our Board are independent, as described in the NYSE listing standards. Our Audit Review Committee, NCG Committee and Compensation Committee are all composed entirely of independent directors. Each committee has a written charter that describes the purpose and responsibilities of the committee, and each committee conducts an annual evaluation of its performance based on the responsibilities set forth in its charter.
The Board of Directors sets the tone for our Company and it provides a foundation for strong governance practices. Our Board reflects a balance of longer-tenured members with in-depth knowledge of our business, and newer members who bring valuable additional attributes, skills and experience. We believe this combination results in a well-balanced membership that combines a diversity of experience, skill and intellect in order to enable the Company to pursue its strategic objectives effectively.
Recently, the Company undertook a review of its Audit Review, Compensation and NCG Committees' charters and, after discussion with the Board, the charters were amended. The charters were revised to reflect which Committee has responsibility for various ESG matters and information technology and cybersecurity. In addition, the Compensation Committee was renamed the Compensation and Human Capital Committee to more accurately reflect the scope of its responsibilities.
Corporate Responsibility
We operate our business with a long-term view and have established goals and strategic initiatives to help us achieve our long-term business objectives. A broad program designed to ensure a strong focus on corporate responsibility is built into our strategic initiatives and underlies our overall strategic planning process. We believe that incorporating corporate responsibility into our Company strategy will bring the best long-term value to our stockholders. By striving for environmental, social, and economic health throughout our organization, we believe we are serving the long-term best interests of the Company while contributing to solving challenges that effect our customers and the communities in which we do business.
Environmental Health and Safety Responsibility
We are committed to accomplishing our business objectives in a manner that complies with our environmental health and safety obligations and requires all Company personnel to be responsible for their assurance, as outlined in the Code of Corporate Conduct. All Company personnel, contractors and suppliers are required to adhere to the following guidelines:
•comply with applicable environmental, health and safety requirements;
•advise supervisors of any potential environmental or safety hazards;
•keep all work areas free from environmental, health and safety hazards; and
•fulfill compliance obligations of the Company and government agencies.
In 2016, we established our 2026 Vision Program which, in part, established programs to be cost effectively achieved compared with a 2015 baseline as follows:
•strive to reduce carbon emission;
•strive to reduce volatile organic compound emissions from painting operations;
•strive to achieve zero waste to landfills at all sites;
6
Table of Contents
•strive to reduce hazardous waste;
•strive to mitigate our waste footprint across all aspects of our value chain by reducing, reusing and recycling effluents and waste;
•strive to reduce water consumption; and
•strive to offer alternatives that enable customers to cost effectively reduce carbon emissions.
We continue to responsibly manage products and packaging to make further progress with the projects set forth in the 2026 Vision Program. While we have generally made progress, year-over-year progress was limited by COVID-19 labor shortages and supply chain disruptions from 2019 to 2021.
We believe our ownership of Nuvera is a transformational opportunity to be a global leader in a key emerging technology with the potential for zero emissions that can also provide enhanced productivity for heavy-duty motive power applications and for certain forklift truck applications. Our objective for Nuvera is to be the preferred provider of heavy-duty fuel cell engines for zero-emissions mobility customers. Global interest in clean energy, as well as strong interest in Nuvera products by third parties, is increasingly supporting the achievement of this objective.
In recognition of continued leadership in supplier sustainability initiatives, the Company's Hyster® brand was listed as an Inbound Logistics’ Top 75 Green Supply Chain Partners for the tenth consecutive year due largely to its lithium-ion and hydrogen fuel cell power systems and telemetry solutions.
Social
The Company considers its commitment to people, including its employees, customers and the local community, as a primary focus of corporate responsibility. The Company’s priority on people focuses on six main areas: occupational health and safety, customer health and safety, employment, training and education, diversity and equal opportunity, and engagement with local communities.
Occupational Health and Safety
Strong health and safety performance is essential to the success of the Company. The framework includes the monitoring and measurement of key performance indicators as we strive to ensure the health and safety of employees. We believe injury and illness should be avoided, and require all employees to be effectively trained and responsible for the assurance of safety on a daily basis. Employees are encouraged to initiate safety improvements, participate in safety committees and reinforce safety behaviors at all times. We are striving to reduce the injury and illness rates in our global operations to zero by 2026. Our most recent metrics from 2020 showed an approximately 10% reduction in the injury and illness rates from the 2015 baseline.
To protect the Company's employees while maintaining essential business functions, we implemented COVID-19 protocols and safety measures. Examples of these protocols include restricting travel, implementing a remote working policy where able, face covering policies and asking employees to practice self-health monitoring to further minimize potential exposure and spread of the virus. As appropriate, we have also adjusted medical benefits to allow for earlier medication refills, waived fees for virtual care services and encouraged employees to consider the COVID-19 vaccine as part of their ongoing personal safety measures. Social distancing practices such as decreasing the number of employees working closely together, adjusting workflows and pathways, installing physical protective barriers, limiting access to communal areas (i.e., break room, cafeteria), and increasing the cleaning, sanitizing, and/or disinfecting of areas within our facilities continues.
At the beginning of the pandemic, we established divisionally specific processes for tracking and reviewing employee COVID-19 cases. Whenever a confirmed diagnosis or potential exposure to COVID-19 occurred, teams took action to contain the situation by implementing appropriate testing or quarantine requirements, focused cleaning and sanitization while informing employees of any potential risks.
Our protocols have and continue to be guided by the guidance of the World Health Organization, the Center for Disease Control, Federal/State Occupational Safety, and other governmental and health authorities. Communication and reinforcement of our COVID-19 protocols have been maintained through our "COVID-19 Pandemic Guide" and ongoing communications to all employees through a variety of methods and channels.
Customer Health & Safety
The Company manages its compliance with government and industry product safety information. Many new products follow a structured and rigorous six-stage development process, with lift truck production taking place within ISO- and OHSAS-certified manufacturing sites. Each of the Company's manufacturing sites uses rigorous processes and testing to seek to ensure that its products meet or exceed application requirements.
In addition, the Company provided support and resources to our dealer network and customers to aid them in their response to the COVID-19 pandemic. This included tools, materials, and training through our "Dealer Portal," connections with leadership teams, and regular and consistent communications. An example of the programs provided was the development and launch of "HY-Shield Clean," a lift truck sanitization program designed to help keep facility personnel safe during operation of

Description of Material Factors Relating to the Director Compensation Table
Each non-employeenon-employee director iswas entitled to receive the following annual compensation for service on our Board of Directors and on HYG's Board of Directors:
a•prior to July 1, 2021, an annual retainer of $173,000$184,000 ($113,000124,000 of which willwas to be paid in the form of Mandatory Shares, as described below);
•effective July 1, 2021, an annual retainer of $192,000 ($130,000 of which was to be paid in the form of Mandatory Shares, as described below);
•attendance fees of $1,000 per day for each meeting attended (including telephonic/telepresence meetings) of our Board of Directors or subsidiary Board of Directors (limited to $1,000 per day);

•attendance fees of $1,000 for each meeting attended (including telephonic/telepresence meetings) of a committee of our Board of Directors on which the director served;

Table of Contents
•an additional retainer of $7,000 for each committee of our Board of Directors on which the director served (other than the Executive Committee);
•an additional retainer of $10,000 for each committee of our Board of Directors on which the director served as chairman (other than the Audit Review Committee); and
•an additional retainer of $15,000 for the chairman of the Audit Review Committee of our Board of Directors.
The retainers arewere paid quarterly in arrears and the meeting fees arewere paid following each meeting. Each director iswas also reimbursed for expenses incurred as a result of attendance at meetings. We also occasionally makemade a private aircraft available to directors for attendance at meetings of our Board of Directors and subsidiary Board of Directors.
Under the Non-Employee Directors' Plan, each director who was not an officer of the Company or one of our subsidiaries receives $113,000received $130,000 ($124,000 prior to July 1, 2021) of the $173,000$192,000 retainer ($184,000 prior to July 1, 2021) in whole shares of Class A Common, referred to as Mandatory Shares. Any fractional shares arewere paid in cash. The actual number of shares of Mandatory Shares issued to a director is determined by the following formula:
the dollar value of the portion of the $113,000$130,000 ($124,000 prior to July 1, 2021) retainer that was earned by the director each quarter
divided by
the average closing price of shares of Class A Common on the NYSE for each week during such quarter.
These shares are fully vested on the date of grant, and the director is entitled to all rights of a stockholder, including the right to vote and receive dividends. However, theThe shares, however, cannot be assigned, pledged or otherwise transferred by the director other than:
•by will or the laws of descent and distribution;
•pursuant to a qualifying domestic relations order; or
•to a trust or partnership for the benefit of the director or his or her spouse, children or grandchildren.
These restrictions lapse on the earliest to occur of:
•ten years after the last day of the calendar quarter for which such shares were earned;
•the director's death or permanent disability;
•five years from the date of the director's retirement;
•the date that a director is both retired from our Board of Directors and has reached age 70; or
•at such other time as determined by the Board of Directors in its sole discretion.
In addition, each director may elect under the Non-Employee Directors' Plan to receive shares of Class A Common in lieu of cash, referred to as Voluntary Shares, for up to 100% of the balance of their retainers and meeting attendance fees. The number of shares issued is determined under the same formula stated above. However, theseThese Voluntary Shares, however, are not subject to the foregoing transfer restrictions.
Each director also receivesreceived: (i) Company-paid life insurance in the amount of $50,000; (ii) Company-paid accidental death and dismemberment insurance for the director and spouse; (iii) personal excess liability insurance in the amount of $10 million for the director and immediate family members who reside with the director (other than Messrs. Butler and LaBarre and General Jumper)director; and (iv) up to $5,000 per year in matching charitable contributions.
Director Compensation Program for 2019
The Compensation Committee periodically evaluates and recommends changes to our compensation program for directors. In 2018, the Compensation Committee used the Korn Ferry consulting firm to evaluate and provide recommendations regarding our director compensation program. Our Board of Directors adopted certain recommendations and made changes effective January 1, 2019.
The revised director compensation program is structured in a similar manner to the 2018 program. However, the retainers paid to each non-employee director for service on our Board of Directors were increased effective January 1, 2019, from $173,000 ($113,000 of which is paid in the form of Mandatory Shares) to $178,000 ($118,000 of which will be paid in the form of Mandatory Shares).
Delinquent Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting ComplianceReports
Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our officers and directors, and persons who own more than 10% of a registered class of our equity securities, to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership of such securities with the SEC

and the NYSE. Officers, directors and greater than 10% beneficial owners are required by applicable regulations to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file.
Based upon the review of the copies of Section 16(a) forms received by us, and upon written representations from reporting persons concerning the necessity of filing a Form 5 Annual Statement of Changes in Beneficial Ownership, we believe that, during 2018,2021, all filing requirements applicable for reporting persons were met with the exception of Helen R. Butler and Clara R. WilliamsLynne E. Rankin who, due to a miscommunication, each reportedan administrative error, filed one gift after the Form 5 filing deadline.late report related to two transactions.
Advisory Vote to Approve the Company's Named Executive Officer Compensation (Proposal 2)
As required by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, referred to as the Dodd-Frank Act,"Dodd-Frank Act", and Section 14A of the Exchange Act, we are asking you to cast an advisory (non-binding) vote to approve the Company's Named Executive Officer compensation. We believe that stockholders should have the opportunity to vote on the compensation of our Named Executive Officers annually. The next vote will be held at the Company's annual meeting in 2023.
Why You Should Approve our Named Executive Officer Compensation
The guiding principle of the compensation program for senior management employees, including Named Executive Officers, is the maintenance of a strong link betweenamong an employee's compensation, individual performance and the performance
14
Table of Contents
of the Company as a whole and/or the business unit for which the employee has responsibility. The primary objectives of our compensation program are:
•to attract, retain and motivate talented management;
•to reward management with competitive total compensation for the achievement of specific corporate and individual goals; and
•to make management long-term stakeholders in the Company.
We encourage stockholders to read the Executive Compensation section of this Proxy Statement, including the Compensation Discussion and Analysis and compensation tables, for a more detailed discussion of ourall compensation programs and policies.polices. We believe our compensation programs and policies are appropriate and effective in implementing our compensation philosophy and in achieving our goals, and that they are aligned with stockholder interests.
We believe that stockholders should consider the following in determining whether to approve this proposal.
Compensation Program is Highly Aligned with Stockholder Value
We seek to achieve the foregoing policies and objectives through a mix of base salaries and incentive plans. Base salaries are set at levels appropriate to allow the incentive plans to serve as significant motivating factors. The Compensation Committee carefully reviews each of these components in relation to our performance. Incentive-based compensation plans are designed to provide significant rewards for achieving or surpassing annual operating and financial performance objectives, as well as to align the compensation interests of the senior management employees, including the Named Executive Officers, with our long-term interests.
Strong Pay-for-Performance Orientation
The short-term and long-term incentive compensation for our employees is substantially performance-based. Performance targets under our short-term incentive compensation plan are measured against our annual operating plan (AOP), while performance targets under our long-term incentive compensation plans are based on a longer term financial forecast. Although the design of our compensation program offers opportunities for employees to earn truly superior compensation for outstanding results, it also includes significantly reduced compensation for results that do not meet or exceed the previously established performance targets for the year. In years when we have weaker financial results, payouts under the incentive compensation plans will generally be lower. In years when we have stronger financial results, payouts under the incentive compensation plans will generally be greater. In general, all performance targets are set at a scale that encourages performance improvement without requiring outstanding results that would encourage conduct inconsistent with building long termlong-term value. The chosen performance metrics and measurement periods are well-aligned with our business strategy and objectives for long-term value creation for our stockholders.
Compensation Program Has Appropriate Long-Term Orientation
Our compensation programs and policies have a long-term focus.
The purpose of our long-term incentive compensation plansplan is to enable senior management employees to accumulate capital through future managerial performance, which the Compensation Committee believes contributes to the future success of our businesses. Our long-term incentive compensation plansplan generally requirerequires long-term commitment on the part of our senior management employees, and cash withdrawals or stock sales are generally not permitted for a number of years. Rather,

the awarded amount is effectively invested in the Company for an extended period to strengthen the tie between stockholders' and the Named Executive Officers' long-term interests.
Therefore, stockholders are asked to cast a non-binding, advisory vote to approve the following resolution that will be submitted for a stockholder vote at the meeting:
"RESOLVED,    "RESOLVED, that the compensation paid to the Named Executive Officers, as disclosed pursuant to the compensation disclosure rules of the SEC, including the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, the compensation tables and narrative discussion, is hereby APPROVED."
Stockholder Vote. In accordance with our Bylaws, the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of our stock that are present in person or represented by proxy and that is actually voted is required to approve this proposal. You may vote "FOR" or "AGAINST" the resolution or abstain from voting on the resolution. The result of the say-on-pay vote will not be binding on us or the Board. The final decision on the Company's executive compensation and benefits remains with the Board and the Compensation Committee. However, weWe and the Board, however, value the views of our stockholders. The Board and the Compensation Committee will review the results of the vote and expect to take them into consideration in addressing future compensation policies and decisions.
THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE "FOR" THE PROPOSAL TO APPROVE THE COMPANY'S NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICER COMPENSATION DISCLOSED PURSUANT TO THE COMPENSATION DISCLOSURE RULES OF THE SEC, INCLUDING THE COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS, THE COMPENSATION TABLES AND NARRATIVE DISCUSSION.

Advisory Vote on the Frequency for Future Advisory Votes to Approve the Company's Named Executive Officer Compensation (Proposal 3)
As required by the Dodd Frank Act and Section 14A of the Exchange Act, we are also asking our stockholders this year to cast a non-binding advisory vote to determine whether the stockholder vote to approve the Company's Named Executive Officer compensation (or the "say-on-pay") should occur every one, two or three years.
After careful consideration, the Board has determined that holding an advisory say-on pay vote every year is the most appropriate policy for the Company at this time and recommends that stockholders vote for future advisory votes to approve the Company's Named Executive Officer compensation to occur every year. While our compensation programs are designed to promote a long-term connection between pay and performance, our Board believes that an annual say-on-pay vote allows our stockholders to provide us with immediate and direct input on our executive compensation plans and programs.
Stockholder Vote. You may vote for future advisory votes to approve the Company's Named Executive Officer compensation to occur every one, two or three years or you may abstain from voting.
THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE OF ''EVERY YEAR'' FOR THE ADVISORY VOTE ON THE FREQUENCY FOR FUTURE ADVISORY VOTES TO APPROVE THE COMPANY'S NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICER COMPENSATION.
Approval of the Company's Non-Employee Directors' Equity Compensation Plan (Proposal 4)
We are asking our stockholders to approve an amended and restated Non-Employee Directors' Plan (the "Amended Directors' Plan") that was adopted by our Board on February 19, 2019. A prior version of the plan document was previously approved by stockholders in 2012 (the "Current Directors' Plan"). If approved by stockholders, the Amended Directors' Plan replaces the Current Directors' Plan.
Our principal reason for adopting the Amended Directors' Plan is to increase the number of Class A Common shares available for issuance. The Amended Directors' Plan provides that 100,000 shares may be issued or transferred under the Amended Directors' Plan on or after May 17, 2019.
In approving the Amended Directors' Plan, the Board made the following material changes, along with certain other immaterial and clarifying changes, to the Current Directors' Plan:
Increase in Shares Available for Awards: Effective May 17, 2019, the number of shares of Class A Common under the Amended Directors' Plan is 100,000. For more information regarding the shares available for issuance, see "Why We Believe You Should Vote for Proposal 4" below.
Individual Director Annual Limit: The Amended Directors' Plan adds a limit on the number of shares that may be issued or transferred to an individual non-employee director in any calendar year under the plan. Subject to adjustment as provided in the Amended Directors' Plan, the maximum amount paid to a non-employee director in any calendar

year beginning on or after January 1, 2019 shall not exceed the greater of (i) $1,250,000 or (ii) the fair market value of 20,000 shares of Class A Common Stock.
Pro-rated Retainer: The Amended Directors' Plan clarifies that a non-employee director’s retainer paid pursuant to the Amended Directors' Plan will be pro-rated in the event the non-employee director begins or ceases service during the applicable quarter for which the retainer is paid.
Permitted Amendments: Stockholder approval will only be required to amend the Amended Directors' Plan where it is otherwise required by applicable law or stock exchange requirements.
Share Counting: The Amended Directors' Plan clarifies that, if applicable, shares withheld by the Company, tendered or otherwise used to satisfy a tax withholding obligation will count against the shares issuable under the plan.
Transferability: The Amended Directors' Plan provides that, in addition to a trust, Mandatory Shares (as defined below) may be transferred to a partnership for the benefit of a participant or certain members of his family.
Plan Term: The Amended Directors' Plan now has a limited term. No Mandatory Shares or Voluntary Shares may be issued under the Amended Directors' Plan on or after May 17, 2029.
Adjustments: The Amended Directors' Plan now allows the Compensation Committee, in connection with certain transactions or events, to provide substitute consideration for outstanding Mandatory Shares or Voluntary Shares.
Why We Believe You Should Vote for Proposal 4. The Amended Directors' Plan authorizes our Board to provide quarterly retainers to our non-employee directors that are payable partly in cash and partly in Class A Common shares for the purpose of helping to align the interests of our non-employee directors with the stockholders of the Company.
We believe our future success depends in part on our ability to attract, motivate and retain high quality non-employee directors. The ability to provide equity-based awards under the Amended Directors' Plan is critical to achieving this success. We would be at a severe competitive disadvantage if we could not use share-based awards to recruit and compensate our non-employee directors.
We also believe that equity compensation motivates non-employee directors to appropriately focus on actions that enhance stockholder value because they will share in that value enhancement through improved share price performance. Our equity compensation also helps to retain our non-employee directors and to promote a focus on sustained enhancement of stockholder value because our equity compensation awards are generally subject to lengthy transfer restrictions.
As of February 28, 2019, 8,739 Class A Common shares, par value $1.00 per share, remained available for issuance under the Current Directors' Plan. If the Amended Directors' Plan is not approved, we may deem it necessary to increase significantly the cash component of our non-employee director compensation, which may not necessarily align compensation interests with the investment interests of our stockholders as well as alignment provided by equity-based awards. Replacing equity awards with cash also would increase cash compensation expense and use cash that could be better utilized if reinvested in our businesses or returned to our stockholders.
The following includes (1) aggregated information regarding the dilution associated with the Current Directors' Plan and the potential stockholder dilution that would result if the proposed share increase under the Amended Directors' Plan is approved and (2) our burn rate. As of February 28, 2019, there were 12,774,403 shares of Class A Common outstanding.
Under the terms of the Current Directors' Plan, a maximum of 100,000 shares of Class A Common (subject to adjustment as described in the Current Directors' Plan) were available to be issued as Mandatory and Voluntary Shares, of which 91,261 shares of Class A Common (0.714% of our outstanding Class A Common shares) had been issued and 8,739 shares of Class A Common remained available for issuance as of February 28, 2019. The 8,739 shares of Class A Common remaining available for issuance, a portion of which will be issued in April 2019 in connection with quarterly retainer payments, represented 0.069% of our outstanding Class A Common shares, as of February 28, 2019. Upon approval of the Amended Directors' Plan requested hereby, the maximum number of shares available for future issuance on or after the effective date as Mandatory and Voluntary Shares under the Amended Directors' Plan will again be an aggregate of 100,000 shares of Class A Common (subject to adjustments as described in the Amended Directors' Plan). This breaks down to a new share request of 91,261 shares of Class A Common. Based on the closing price on the NYSE for our Class A Common Shares on February 28, 2019 of $67.66 per share, the aggregate market value of the 100,000 shares of Class A Common that will be available for future issuance under the Amended Directors' Plan was $6,766,000.
For 2016, 2017 and 2018, we issued Mandatory and Voluntary Shares under the Current Directors' Plan covering 17,778 shares, 16,486 shares, and 18,378 shares, respectively. Based on our basic weighted average shares of Class A Common outstanding for those three years of 12,441,529, 12,533,431 and 12,649,478, respectively, for the three-year period 2016-2018, our average burn rate was0.140% (our individual years' burn rates were 0.143% for 2016, 0.132% for 2017, and 0.145% for 2018).
In determining the number of shares to request for approval under the Amended Directors' Plan, our management team worked with the Compensation Committee to evaluate a number of factors, including our recent share usage and the facts that

(1) we perform an in-depth analysis of our Board compensation package on a triennial basis (and interim reviews at other times) and (2) non-employee directors have the option to receive their entire fees in the form of Voluntary Shares (as defined below), which would substantially increase the number of shares required under the plan.
If the Amended Directors' Plan is approved, we intend to utilize the shares authorized under the Amended Directors' Plan to continue our practice of incentivizing directors through equity grants. We currently anticipate that the shares that will be available under the Amended Directors' Plan will last between five and seven years, based on our recent grant rates, director elections and the approximate current share price, but could last for a different period of time if actual practice does not match recent grant rates, our share price changes materially or individual directors elect to receive a higher percentage of their compensation in Voluntary Shares. Our Board would retain discretion to determine the amounts of the retainers for our non-employee directors, and future benefits that may be received by participants under the Amended Directors' Plan are not determinable at this time.
We believe that we have demonstrated a commitment to sound equity compensation practices in recent years. We recognize that equity compensation awards dilute stockholder equity, so we have carefully managed our equity incentive compensation. Our equity compensation practices are intended to be competitive and consistent with market practices, and we believe our historical share usage has been responsible and mindful of stockholder interests, as described above.
The following summary of the other terms of the Amended Directors' Plan is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Amended Directors Plan attached to this Proxy Statement as Appendix A.
Purpose. The purpose of the Amended Directors' Plan is to provide for the payment to the non-employee directors of the Company a portion of their annual retainers in capital stock of the Company in order to help further align the interests of the directors with the stockholders of the Company and thereby help promote the long-term interests of the Company.
Administration and Eligibility. The Amended Directors' Plan will be administered by the Board and the Compensation Committee, as applicable, as further described in the Amended Directors' Plan. The Board may alter or amend the Amended Directors' Plan or terminate it entirely. However, amendments to the Amended Directors' Plan will be subject to stockholder approval to the extent required by applicable law or stock exchange requirements. Furthermore, no such action shall affect a non-employee director’s rights with regard to shares that were previously issued or transferred to the director or that were earned by, but not yet issued or transferred to, the director, without the director’s consent. All non-employee directors of the Company are automatically included as participants in the Plan. As of February 28, 2019, we had ten non-employee directors. The basis for participation in the Amended Directors' Plan is election or appointment as a Company non-employee director.
Terms and Conditions. Under the Amended Directors' Plan, the directors are required to receive a portion (as determined by the Board) of their annual retainer (in 2019, $118,000 out of $178,000) in shares of Class A Common (the "Mandatory Shares"). They may also elect to receive all or part of the remainder of the retainer and all other fees in the form of shares of Class A Common (the "Voluntary Shares"). The number of shares of Class A Common issued to a director is determined by taking the dollar value of the amount to be received in Mandatory or Voluntary Shares and dividing it by the average closing price of Class A Common on the NYSE at the end of each week during each calendar quarter. The amount of any fractional shares will be paid in cash. Further, shares paid under the Amended Directors' Plan are subject to pro-ration in the event that a non-employee director begins or ceases service during the applicable calendar quarter. Shares issued under the Amended Directors' Plan may be shares of original issuance, treasury shares, or a combination of the two.
Mandatory and Voluntary Shares are fully vested on the date of payment, and the director is entitled to ownership rights in such shares, including the right to vote and receive dividends. However, the directors are generally required to hold the Mandatory Shares for a period of ten years from the last day of the calendar quarter for which the Mandatory Shares were earned and, during that ten-year holding period, the Mandatory Shares cannot be assigned, pledged or otherwise transferred except (i) by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, (ii) in the event of divorce, subject to certain limitations as described in the Amended Directors' Plan, or (iii) to a trust or partnership for the benefit of the director or his spouse, children or grandchildren (in which case the transfer restrictions remain in effect). The transfer restrictions lapse earlier on the first to occur of (i) death or permanent disability; (ii) five years from the date of the director's retirement from the Board; (iii) the date that a director has both retired from the Board and reached age 70; or (iv) at such other time as determined by the Board in its sole discretion. Voluntary Shares are not subject to such restrictions. All amounts to be settled in Mandatory Shares or Voluntary Shares will be paid in cash if such shares cannot be issued or transferred.
Subject to adjustment as described in the Amended Directors' Plan, the maximum amount paid to a non-employee director in any calendar year beginning on or after January 1, 2019 shall not exceed the greater of (i) $1,250,000 or (ii) the fair market value of 20,000 shares of Class A Common Stock.
Adjustments. The Board will make or provide for such adjustments in the share price used to determine share payouts, in the kind of shares that may be issued or transferred under the Amended Directors' Plan, in the number of shares of Class A Common issuable in the aggregate and to individual directors under the Amended Directors' Plan, in the number of outstanding

Mandatory Shares or Voluntary Shares for each non-employee director, and in the terms applicable to Mandatory Shares or Voluntary Shares, as the Board, in its sole discretion, exercised in good faith, determines is equitably required to reflect (1) any stock dividend, stock split, combination of shares, recapitalization or any other change in the capital structure of the Company, (2) any merger, consolidation, spin-off, split-off, spin-out, split-up, reorganization, partial or complete liquidation or other distribution of assets or issuance of rights or warrants to purchase securities, or (3) any other corporate transaction or event having an effect similar to any of the foregoing (collectively referred to as an "Extraordinary Event"). Moreover, in the event of any such Extraordinary Event, the Compensation Committee may provide in substitution for any or all outstanding Mandatory Shares or Voluntary Shares such alternative consideration (including cash), if any, as it, in good faith, may determine to be equitable under the circumstances and shall require in connection therewith the surrender of all Mandatory Shares or Voluntary Shares so replaced.
Effective Date and Plan Term. The Amended Directors' Plan is effective May 17, 2019, subject to the approval of the Amended Directors' Plan by the stockholders of the Company as of such date. No Mandatory or Voluntary Shares may be issued or transferred under the Amended Directors' Plan on or after May 17, 2029. However, shares issued or transferred prior to the termination of the Amended Directors' Plan will generally continue to be subject to the terms of the Amended Directors' Plan following such termination.
Federal Income Tax Consequences. This is a brief summary of certain Federal income tax consequences under the Amended Directors' Plan based on Federal income tax laws currently in effect. It is presented for the information of stockholders considering how to vote on this Proposal and not for Amended Directors' Plan participants. It is not intended to be complete and does not describe Federal taxes other than income taxes (such as Medicare or Social Security taxes), or state, local or foreign tax consequences. Generally, the recipient will be required to include as taxable ordinary income in the year of receipt of a retainer payment an amount equal to the amount of cash received and the fair market value of any Mandatory and Voluntary Shares received.
Registration with the SEC. We intend to file a Registration Statement on Form S-8 relating to the issuance of shares of Class A Common under the Amended Directors' Plan with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, as soon as practicable after approval of the Amended Directors' Plan by our stockholders.
Final 2018 Awards and Estimated 2019 Awards. Stock awards under the Current Directors' Plan for 2018 issued to the non-employee directors of the Company are shown in the Director Compensation Table on page 10. Stock awards under the Amended Directors' Plan for 2019 and thereafter are not currently determinable but will be equal to the sum of the Mandatory Shares and Voluntary Shares for each director. Since the amount of Voluntary Shares is dependent on the directors' elections and not currently determinable, the following chart shows the cash value of the Mandatory Shares for the retainer of the non-employee directors under the Amended Directors' Plan for 2019:

All audit, audit-related, tax and other accounting services to be performed for us must be pre-approved by our Audit Review Committee. In furtherance of this policy, for 2019,2022, the Audit Review Committee authorized us to engage Ernst & Young LLP for specific audit, audit-related and tax services up to specified fee levels. The Audit Review Committee has delegated to the Chairman of the Audit Review Committee, together with one other Audit Review Committee member, the authority to approve services other than audit, review or attest services, which approvals are reported to the Audit Review Committee at its next meeting. We provide a summary of approvals and commitments at each general meeting of the Audit Review Committee.
The Audit Review Committee has considered whether the providing of the non-audit services to us by Ernst & Young LLP is compatible with maintaining its independence. In addition, as a result of the recommendation of the Audit Review Committee, we have adopted policies limiting the services provided by our independent registered public accounting firm that are not audit or audit-related services.

PART THREE - EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION INFORMATION
Summary of Our Named Executive Officer Compensation Program
The material elements of our 20182021 compensation objectives and policies as they relate to the Named Executive Officers listed in the Summary Compensation Table on page 34,30, referred to as the NEOs, are described below. This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with all accompanying tables, footnotes and text in the Proxy Statement.
Our executive compensation program strongly tiestied the compensation of our NEOs to our short-term and long-term business objectives and to stockholder interests. Key elements of compensation includeincluded base salary, annual incentive compensation, long-term incentive compensation and defined contribution retirement benefits.
At our 20162021 annual meeting of stockholders, the Company received strong support for our compensation program with over 94%99% of the votes cast approving our advisory vote on named executive officer compensation (which vote we had conducted every three years).NEO compensation. The Compensation Committee believes that this overwhelming support validates the philosophy and objectives of our executive compensation program.
We pay for performance. We align our executive compensation with corporate performance on both a short-term and long-term basis. In 2018,2021, 81% of Mr. A. Rankin's 20182021 target compensation and, as a group, approximately 66%64% of the other NEOs' target compensation was incentive-based and "at-risk" based on Company performance.
In addition, the long-term incentive awards for the NEOs were paid in the form of a combination of cash and restricted shares of Class A Common which, as described in more detail beginning on page 28,25, are generally subject to transfer restrictions for a period of ten years. The value of these restricted stock awards continues to be "at-risk" based on future Company performance and continues to align the interests of the NEOs with those of our stockholders.
Other key features of our executive2021 NEO compensation program include:

Compensation Consultants
The Compensation Committee receives assistance and advice from Korn Ferry, an internationally-recognized compensation consulting firm. Korn Ferry is engaged by and reports to the Compensation Committee and also provides advice and discusses compensation issues directly with management.
Korn Ferry makes recommendations regarding substantially all aspects of compensation for our directors and senior management employees, including the NEOs. For 2018,2021, Korn Ferry was engaged in general to make recommendations regarding:
•Directordirector compensation levels;
Salary point levels, salary midpoints and incentive targets for all new senior management positions and/or changes to current senior management positions;
2018•2021 salary midpoints, incentive compensation targets (calculated as a percentage of salary midpoint) and target total compensation for all senior management positions; and
2018•2021 salary midpoints and/or range movement for all other employee positions; and
•mid-year salary point levels, salary midpoints and incentive targets for all new senior management positions and/or changes to current senior management positions.
All salary point recommendations are determined through the consistent application of the Korn Ferry salary point methodology, which is a proprietary method that takes into account the know-how, problem-solving and accountability requirements of the position. A representative of Korn Ferry attended one of the Compensation Committee meetings in 20182021 and, during that meeting, consulted with the Compensation Committee in executive session without management present.
Korn Ferry also provided limited non-executive compensation consulting services to the Company in 2018.2021. However, the Compensation Committee has considered and assessed all relevant factors, including, but not limited to, those set forth in Rule 10C-1(b)(4)(i) through (vi) of the Exchange Act, that could give rise to a potential conflict of interest with respect to Korn Ferry. Based on this review, we are not aware of any conflict of interest that has been raised by the work performed by Korn Ferry. The Committee has assessed the independence of Korn Ferry.
Korn Ferry 'sFerry's General Industrial Survey - Salary Midpoint
Prior to 2018, the Compensation Committee utilized a proprietary survey known as the All Industrial survey for purposes of setting total target compensation. The All Industrial survey contained data from a broad group of domestic industrial organizations ranging in size from under $150 million to over $5 billion in annual revenues.    As a starting point for setting total target compensation for 2018,2021, the Compensation Committee directed Korn Ferry to use a similarits proprietary survey, known as the General Industrial survey, which also contains data from a broad group of domestic industrial organizations, but ranging in size from approximately $500 million$2.50 billion to approximately $1$4.99 billion in annual revenues. The make-up of the reporting companies and operating units in the General Industrial and All Industrial surveys are very similar except that the Compensation Committee directed Korn Ferry to exclude retail and finance segments from the data results.
For 2018,2021, participants in the General Industrial survey included 475 parent organizations461 parents and 1,1081,316 independent operating units, which satisfied Korn Ferry's quality assurance controls and represented almost all segments of industry including manufacturing.(including manufacturing, but excluding retail and finance segments).
The Compensation Committee chose this particular survey as its benchmark for the following reasons:

•It provides relevant information regarding the compensation paid to employees, including senior management employees, with similar skill sets used in our industry and represents the talent pool from which we recruit.recruit;
•The use of a broad-based survey reduces volatility and lessens the impact of cyclical upswings or downturns in any one industry that could otherwise skew the survey results in any particular year.year; and
•It provides a competitive framework for recruiting employees from outside of our industry.
Using its proprietary salary point methodology, Korn Ferry compares positions of similar scope and complexity with the data contained in the General Industrial survey. Korn Ferry then derives a median salary level for each salary point level targeted at the 50th50th percentile of the General Industrial survey (the "salary midpoint"). The Compensation Committee typically sets the salary midpoint for each of the NEOs (other than Mr. A. Rankin - refer to note (3)(4) of the target total compensation table on page 21)19) at 100% of the salary midpoint recommended by Korn Ferry. However, due to the continued uncertainty surrounding the impact of COVID-19 on the Company's business, management proposed taking a more moderate approach to 2021 midpoints. Management recommended, and the Compensation Committee approved, applying only 50% of the Korn Ferry-recommended increases to salary midpoints for 2021, including the salary midpoints for each of the NEOs.

Table of Contents
The Compensation Committee believes that the use of salary midpoints ensureshelps ensure that our compensation program provides sufficient compensation to attract and retain talented executives and maintain internal pay equity, without overcompensating our employees. Because salary midpoints are based on each salary point level, all of the employees at a particular salary point level generally have the same salary midpoint, with some geographic differences. The salary midpoints provided by Korn Ferry are then used to calculate the total target compensation of all senior management employees, including the NEOs.
Compensation Policies, Objectives and Methodology - Total Target Compensation
The guiding principle of our compensation program is the maintenance of a strong link among an employee's compensation, individual performance and the performance of the Company or the subsidiary or business unit for which the employee has responsibility. The primary objectives of our compensation program are to:
•attract, retain and motivate talented management;
•reward management with competitive total compensation for achievement of specific corporate and individual goals;
•make management long-term stakeholders in the Company;
•help ensure that management's interests are closely aligned with those of our Company's stockholders; and
•maintain consistency in compensation among all of the Company's direct and indirect subsidiaries.
The Compensation Committee establishes comprehensively defined "target total compensation" for each senior management employeeNEO following rigorous evaluation standards to help maintain internal equity. In this process, the Compensation Committee annually reviews "tally sheets" for the NEOs and other senior management employees that list each employee's title, Hay points and the following information for each of the NEOs for the current year, as well as that being proposed for the subsequent year:
•salary midpoint, as determined by Korn Ferry from the General Industrial survey;
•cash in lieu of perquisites (if applicable);
•short-term incentive target dollar amount (determined by multiplying the salary midpoint by a specified percentage of that midpoint, as determined by the Compensation Committee, with advice from Korn Ferry, for each salary grade);
•long-term incentive target dollar amount (determined in the same manner as the short-term incentive target);
•target total compensation, which is the sum of the foregoing amounts; and
•base salary.
In November 2017, the    The Compensation Committee reviewed the tally sheetstotal target compensation for each of our NEOs to decide whether it should make changes to the 20182021 compensation program. The Compensation Committee determined that the overall program continued to be consistent with our compensation objectives and did not make any material changes for 2018.     2021 at that time.
The design of our compensation program typically provides employees with the opportunity to earn superiorabove-target compensation for outstanding results. Base salaries are set at levels appropriate to allow our incentive plans to serve as significant motivating factors. Because our program provides significantly reduced compensation for results that do not meet or exceed the established performance targets for the year, it encourages NEOs to earn incentive pay greater than 100% of target over time by delivering outstanding managerial performance.
The Compensation Committee views the various components of compensation as related but distinct. For example, the Compensation Committee uses the information provided from the General Industrial survey to determine the salary midpoint. It then generally sets actual base salaries between 80% and 120% of that salary midpoint (up to 130% for Mr. A. Rankin). The Compensation Committee also obtains the total target incentive compensation amounts from Korn Ferry based on the General

Industrial survey, but determines the mix of short-term and long-term incentives in its discretion, based on its decision regarding how best to motivate our employees.

(1)Due to the continued uncertainty surrounding the impact of COVID-19 on the Company's business, management recommended, and the Committee approved, applying only 50% of the Korn Ferry-recommended increases to salary midpoints for 2021.
(1)In addition to providing car allowances to senior employees outside the U.S. and other perquisites to a limited number of employees in unique circumstances, U.S. senior management employees are paid a fixed dollar amount of cash in lieu of perquisites. The applicable dollar amounts provided to the NEOs in 2018 were approved by the Compensation Committee based on an analysis performed by Korn Ferry in 2017 and will remain in effect through 2020.
(2)The NEOs are paid a fixed dollar amount of cash ratably throughout the year in lieu of perquisites. The applicable dollar amounts were approved by the Compensation Committee following an analysis performed by Korn Ferry in 2020 and will remain in effect through 2023. Based on this analysis, the Compensation Committee set a defined perquisite allowance for each senior management employee, based on Hay point levels. These amounts are paid in cash ratably throughout the year. This approach satisfies our objective of providing competitive total compensation to our NEOs while recognizing that perquisites are largely just another form of compensation.
(2)The amounts shown include a 15% increase from the Korn Ferry-recommended long-term plan target awards that the Compensation Committee applies each year to account for the immediately taxable nature of the awards issued under the Hyster-Yale Materials Handling, Inc. Long-Term Equity Incentive Plan (the "Equity Long-Term Plan"). See "Long-Term Incentive Compensation" beginning on page 28.
(3)Beginning in 2015, the Compensation Committee agreed to benchmark Mr. A. Rankin’s annual compensation against that of a stand-alone Chairman, President and CEO of the Company (using the 50th percentile of the All Industrial survey) and then apply a reduction factor to the midpoint to reflect the fact that Mr. A. Rankin was still employed by, and providing full-time services to, two publicly-traded companies (the Company and NACCO). However, Mr. A. Rankin retired as President and Chief Executive Officer of NACCO effective as of September 30, 2017. Consequently, he ceased providing full-time CEO services to two publicly traded companies before 2018. The Compensation Committee noted, however, that he would continue to provide services to two publicly-traded companies (NACCO and Hamilton Beach Brands Holding Company) in addition to the Company in 2018. The Compensation Committee considered several alternatives and decided to apply a 15% reduction factor to the 2018 Korn Ferry-recommended salary midpoint for Mr. A. Rankin's stand-alone Hyster-Yale CEO position. As a result, the Compensation Committee set Mr. A. Rankin's target total compensation for 2018 as follows:
2018 Mr. A. Rankin Target Compensation (A) Salary Midpoint (B) Cash in Lieu of Perquisites 
(C)

(3)The amounts shown above reflect his annualized post-promotion amounts. The amountsinclude a 15% increase from the Korn Ferry-recommended long-term plan target awards that the Compensation Committee applies each year to account for the immediately taxable nature of the awards issued under the Hyster-Yale Materials Handling, Inc. Long-Term Equity Incentive Plan (the "Equity Long-Term Plan"). See "Long-Term Incentive Compensation" beginning on page 25.

He retired as President and Chief Executive Officer of NACCO in connection with NACCO’s 2017 spin-off of HBBHC. Consequently, Mr A. Rankin no longer provides full-time CEO services to two publicly traded companies. However, because Mr. A. Rankin continued to provide services to both NACCO and HBBHC in 2021, the Compensation Committee decided to apply a 10% reduction factor to the 2021 Korn Ferry-recommended salary midpoint for 2018 are shownMr. A. Rankin's Hyster-Yale CEO position. As a result, the Compensation Committee set Mr. A. Rankin's target total compensation for 2021 as follows:

(1)    Due to the continued uncertainty surrounding the impact of COVID-19 on the Summary Compensation Table on page 34.Company's business, management recommended, and the Committee approved, applying only 50% of the Korn Ferry-recommended increase to Mr. Rankin's unadjusted salary midpoint for 2021.
Target total compensation is supplemented by health and welfare benefits and retirement benefits, which consist of both (i) qualified defined contribution plans and (ii) U.S. nonqualified deferred compensation arrangements (the "Excess Plans"). In addition, the Compensation Committee may award discretionary cash and equity bonuses to employees, including the NEOs, although it rarely does so and did not do so for the NEOs in 2018.    

Base Salary
The Compensation Committee fixes an annual base salary intended to be competitive in the marketplace to recruit and retain talented employees. Base salary is intended to provide employees with a set amount of money during the year with the expectation that they will perform their responsibilities to the best of their ability and in our best interests.
For 2018,2021, the Compensation Committee determined the base salary for the NEOs by generally taking into account their individual performance for 20172020 and the relationship of their 20172020 base salary to the new 20182021 salary midpoint for their Haysalary point level. The Compensation Committee also took into account other relevant information, including:
•general inflation, salary trends and economic forecasts provided by Korn Ferry;
•general budget considerations and business forecasts provided by management; and
any extraordinary personal accomplishments or corporate events that occurred•evaluations of individual performance during 2017.2020.

Incentive Compensation
One of the principles of our compensation program is that senior management employees, including the NEOs, are compensated based on the performance of the Company and/or the business unit for which they are responsible. In 2018,2021, all of the NEOs participated in (i) the Hyster-Yale Group, Inc. Annual Incentive Compensation Plan (the "Short-Term Plan") and (ii) the Equity Long-Term Plan.Plan (collectively, the "Incentive Plans").
Overview. Our incentive compensation plans are designed to align the compensation interests of the senior management employees with our short-term and long-term interests. A significant portion of the NEOs' compensation is linked directly to the attainment of specific financial and operating targets. The Compensation Committee believes that a material percentage of the NEOs' compensation should be contingent on the performance of the Company and/or the business unit for which they are responsible. As illustrated on the target total compensation table on page 21,19, 81% of Mr. A. Rankin's 20182021 target compensation was variable or "at risk" and tied to Company performance and, as a group, approximately 66%64% of the other NEOs' target compensation was tied to Company performance. For 2018,2021, the sum of each of the NEO's incentive compensation targets exceeded the sum of his fixed payments (base salary plus perquisite allowance).
The performance criteria and target performance levels for the incentive plans are established annually by the Compensation Committee and are based upon management's recommendations as to our performance objectives for the year. ThreeTwo types of performance targets are usedwere adopted for use in the incentive compensation plans:Incentive Plans for 2021:
•Targets Based on Annual Operating Plan.Certain performance targets arewere based on forecasts contained in the 20182021 annual operating plan ("AOP"). With respect to these targets, there iswas an expectation that these performance targets willwould be met during the year. If they arewere not, the participants willwould not receive all or a portion of the award that iswas based on these performance criteria.

•Targets Based on Long-Term GoalGoalss.. Other performance targets arewere not based on the 20182021 AOP. Rather, they arewere based on long-term goals established by the Compensation Committee. Because these targets arewere not based on the AOP, it is possible in any given year that the level of expected performance may be above or below the specified performance target for thatthe year. Certain operating profit percent targets are examplesThe Strategic Objectives list under the Equity Long-Term Plan is an example of targets that area target based on longer-term, project-based objectives that the Compensation Committee believed we should deliver over the long-term, goals (see "Long-Term Incentive Compensation" beginning on page 28).not the performance that was expected in the current year or the near term.
•Operating Profit Percent Over-RideOverride Feature. The Compensation Committee approved an operating profit percent "over-ride"overall profitability level reduction feature tofor each of the Short-Term Plan, the Equity Long-Term Plan and the Hyster-Yale Group, Inc. Long-Term Incentive Compensation Plan (the "Cash Long-Term Plan" ) (collectively, the "Incentive Plans")Plans for 2018.2021. This feature providesprovided for a reduction in payouts under the plans from the amounts otherwise determined under the pre-established performance targets unless a separate operating profit percent target iswas achieved, thus providing participants with additional motivation to deliver outstanding performance.
Each NEO iswas eligible to receive a short-term incentive award and a long-term incentive award based on a target incentive amount that iswas equal to a percentage of salary midpoint. However, the final payout may be higher or lower than the targeted amount.

Calculation and Payment Overview.Overview. Awards under the Incentive Plans are determined as follows:
•Target awards for each executive arewere equal to a specified percentage of the executive's 20182021 salary midpoint, based on the number of salary points assigned to the position and the appropriate level of short-term and long-term incentive compensation targets recommended by Korn Ferry and adopted by the Compensation Committee at that level. The Compensation Committee then increasesincreased the target amounts under the Equity Long-Term Plan by 15% to account for the immediately taxable nature of the awards.
•The plans have a one-year performance period.
Final awards are determined after year-end by comparing actual performance to the pre-established performance targets that were set by the Compensation Committee.
•The Compensation Committee, in its discretion, may increase, decrease or eliminate awards and may approve the payment of awards where performance would otherwise not meet the minimum criteria set for payment of awards, although it rarely does so.awards.
•Short-Term Plan awards are paid annually in cash. Equity Long-Term Plan awards are paid annually in a combination of cash and restricted shares of Class A Common. Cash
•All shares of Class A Common awarded under the Equity Long-Term Plan awards are paid in cash on the third anniversary of the grant date of the award.
All awards are immediately vested when granted.issued. Note, however, that the transfer restrictions on the awards to our NEOs under our Equity Long-Term Plan provide participants with an incentive over the ten-year restricted period to increase the value of the Company, which is expected to be reflected in the increased value of the stock awarded. The Compensation Committee believes that this encourages our executivesNEOs to maintain a long-term focus on our profitability, which is in the Company'sshareholders' best interests.
•The maximum awards under the Short-Term Plan could not exceed 150% of the target award level. The cash-denominated awards under the Equity Long-Term Plan could not exceed 200% of the target award level (or the greater of $12,000,000 and the fair market value of 50,000 shares of Class A Common, determined at the time of payment).
•Refer to "Employment and Severance Agreements""Limited Change in Control Benefits" on page 3228 for a description of the impact of a change in control on Incentive Plan awards.
Incentive Compensation Tables. When reviewing the incentive compensation tables beginning below, the following factors should be considered:
•Selection of Performance FactorsCriteria and TargetsTargets.. The Compensation Committee considered the factors described under "Incentive Compensation - Overview" beginning on page 2221 and adopted performance criteria and target performance levels to determine the 20182021 incentive compensation awards.
Adjustments In calculating Prior to suspending the various 2018 incentive compensation performance targets and results, adjustments were made for certain non-recurring or special items (similar2020 Incentive Plans due to the adjustments listed for the ROTCE calculation on page 25). These adjustments were establishedCOVID-19 cost containment measures initiated by the Compensation Committee atCompany in 2020, the time the targets were set. In particular, the Compensation Committee approved an exclusion from the calculation of 2018 incentive compensation for the after tax cost of any law or regulation change (in excessa redesign that modified portions of the amount includedperformance criteria under the 2020 Incentive Plans. The Committee believed that for 2021, this redesign continued to support the Company's desire to reinforce its commercial sales execution, as well as its clear commitment to the execution of key strategic projects. As such, revenue and adjusted standard margin were adopted as primary performance metrics under the 2021 Incentive Plans in order to better capture the Company's economic position in the AOP, if any). During 2018,market and also reflect the U.S. Government enacted tariffs on (i) steelgrowing importance of non-unit based products such as automation, fuel cells, operator assistance system, telemetry and aluminum importsattachments. In addition, the performance criteria under Section 232the 2021 Incentive Plans also reinforced the importance of the Code and (ii) certain goods imported from China, including forklift trucks and components, under Section 301effective management of the Code (the "Tariffs"). Although the Company implemented price increases and a tariff surcharge to offset the material cost inflation driven by the Tariffs, the Company's 2018 full-year operating results suffered due to a lag in time between full realization of the price increases/surcharge and when the Tariffs and material cost increases were first realized. The Compensation Committee determined that the Tariffs were the result of "law or regulationworking capital.

change" within the meaning of the previously-approved adjustment and that they should not adversely affect 2018 incentive compensation payments as they were not within the control of the 2018 Incentive Plan participants. Accordingly, the ROTCE and operating profit targets and results disclosed on the tables for the Short-Term Plan and the Long-Term Plan have been adjusted to exclude the impact of the Tariffs.
•Achievement PercentagesPercentages.. The achievement percentages are otherwise based on the formulas contained in performance guidelines adopted by the Compensation Committee. The formulas do not provide for straight-line interpolation from the performance target to the maximum payment target.
Market Share Performance Factors•. These tables do not disclose our market shareAdjustments. In calculating the various 2021 Incentive Plans' performance targets orand results, due tocertain adjustments were established by the competitively sensitive natureCompensation Committee at the time the 2021 Incentive Plans' targets were set, including the after-tax impact of that information. The market share targets under the Short-Term Plancertain items only if they were based on our expected 2018 AOP results, while the market share targets under the Equity Long-Term Plan were based on a combinationin excess of the Company's current market positionamounts included in the 2021 AOP (for example, changes in laws or regulations, acquisition-related expenses and long-term strategic objectives. The Compensation Committee believed that, with strong management performance, it was reasonably possible for the Company to meet all market share targets in 2018.
Operating Profit Percent Over-Ridepost-acquisition impact of business acquisitions). The Compensation Committee also approved the addition of an additional adjustment to Nuvera's operating profit, percent "over-ride" featurespecifically excluding amounts related to eachan inventory write-off at Nuvera from the calculation of the 2021 incentive compensation for Nuvera participants. In anticipation of fulfilling certain research and development agreements entered into prior to the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, Nuvera significantly increased its inventory levels. However, the effects of the pandemic, including border closures, halted Nuvera's progress and management made a determination to write-off inventory related to certain of those agreements. The Compensation Committee determined an adjustment to 2021 incentive compensation was appropriate as the inventory write-off was a special, non-recurring item (generally outside of the participants' control) that occurred during 2021 and was not known or considered at the time the 2021 AOP was established.
•Operating Profit Override Feature. Under the operating profit override feature approved by the Compensation Committee for the 2021 Incentive Plans, for 2018. This feature provides for a reduction in payouts under the plans ofwould be reduced by up to 40% from the

amounts otherwise determined under the pre-established performance targets unless a separate operating profit percent target of 4.0% iswas achieved, thus providing participants with additional motivation to deliver outstanding performance. Because the Company achieved 3.8% adjusted operating profit percent for 2018 (less than the 4.0% target), the payout percentage for participants under each of the Incentive Plans was reduced to 97.0% of the initial payout percentage in accordance with the 2018 operating profit percent over-ride feature.
•Nuvera Fuel Cells, LLC ("Nuvera") Performance Goals. For 2018,2021, the Short-Term Plan awardsmetrics for certain of the NEOs were based in part on specific Nuvera-related performance criteria. These tables do not disclose certain confidential commercial and financial Nuvera performance targets or results due tocriteria, as described in the competitively sensitive nature of that information. The Compensation Committee believed that, with strong management performance, it was reasonably possible for the Company to meet all Nuvera performance targets in 2018.following tables.
•Bolzoni SpA ("Bolzoni") Performance Goals. For 2018,2021, the Short-Term Plan awardsmetrics for certain of the NEOs were based in part on specific Bolzoni-related performance criteria, as described in the following tables.
Short-Term Incentive Compensation
For 2018,2021, the Short-Term Plan was designed to provide target short-term incentive compensation to the NEOs of between 50% and 105% of salary midpoint, depending on the NEO's position.

ROTCE. In 2018, ROTCE targetsdifferent payout percentages were used to determine final payouts for participants under the Short-Term Plan based on a pre-established formula.
ROTCE is calculated as follows:
Earnings Before Interest After-Tax after adjustments
divided by
Total Capital Employed after adjustments
Earnings Before Interest After-Tax is equal to the sum of interest expense, net of interest income, less 26% for taxes, plus net income from continuing operations attributable to stockholders, which we refer to as net income. Total Capital Employed is equal to (i) the sum of the average debt and average stockholders' equity less (ii) average consolidated cash. Average debt, stockholders' equity and consolidated cash are calculated by taking the sum of the balance at the beginning of the year and the balance at the end of each of the next 12 months divided by 13.
Consolidated ROTCE is calculated from the financial statements using average debt, average stockholders' equity and average cash based on the sum of the balance at the beginning of the year and the balance at the end ofdifferent performance criteria that applied to each quarter divided by five, which is then adjusted for any non-recurring or special items:
2018 Net income$34.7
Plus: 2018 Interest expense, net13.6
Less: Income taxes on 2018 interest expense, net at 26%(3.5)
Earnings Before Interest After-Tax$44.8
2018 Average stockholders' equity (12/31/2017 and each of 2018's quarter ends)$561.7
2018 Average debt (12/31/2017 and each of 2018's quarter ends)289.0

Plus: Adjustments to Earnings Before Interest After-Tax$51.8
Less: Adjustments to Total Capital Employed$(213.5)
Adjusted Consolidated ROTCE20.3%
NEO in 2021.
Adjustments to the ROTCE calculation under the Short-Term Plan are non-recurring or special items that are generally established by the Compensation Committee at the time the ROTCE targets are set. During 2018, the anticipated and actual results of Nuvera, the Americas Fuel Cell division and Bolzoni were excluded from the ROTCE target and Adjusted Consolidated ROTCE. In addition, for 2018, the ROTCE adjustments generally related tothe after-tax impact of the following items only if they were in excess of the amounts included in the 2018 AOP:
changes in any law or regulation, including the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 and the Tariffs (see "Incentive Compensation Tables" on page 23 for a more detailed explanation of the adjustment for Tariffs);
acquisition-related expenses; and
the post-acquisition impact of business acquisitions.
The Compensation Committee determined that these items should not adversely affect incentive compensation payments, as they were incurred in connection with actions or events that were beneficial to us, such as improving our operations, or were generally not within the employees' control and, as a result, these items should not adversely affect incentive compensation payments.
The following tables show detailed calculations of the performance criteriacriteria established by the Compensation Committee for 20182021 under the Short-Term Plan to determine final incentive compensation payments for the NEOs.
Short-Term Incentive CompensationCriteria for Mr.Messrs. Schilling and Salgado.

(1)    During 2021, the Company was negatively impacted by various pandemic-related and other global supply chain constraints, component shortages, shipping container availability constraints and higher freight costs, as well as significant material cost inflation resulting from the accelerated pace of the market recovery. These issues, all of which were generally outside the control of employees, adversely impacted the Company's Short-Term Plan performance results. After careful consideration of the impact the 2021 Incentive Plan payouts might have on the Company's ability to retain and reward those key employees necessary to help the Company meet its financial and business objectives, the Compensation Committee determined that it was appropriate to approve a 10.6% increase to the Short-Term Plan payouts for Corporate lift truck participants, including Messrs. Schilling and Salgado. Given all of the outside constraints impacting supply chain and shipping during 2021, the amount of the increase was generally determined by calculating 2021 revenue using bookings instead of shipments.

(1)    During 2021, the Company was negatively impacted by various pandemic-related and other global supply chain constraints, component shortages, shipping container availability constraints and higher freight costs, as well as significant material cost inflation resulting from the accelerated pace of the market recovery. These issues, all of which were generally outside the control of employees, adversely impacted the Company's Short-Term Plan performance results. After careful consideration of the impact the 2021 Incentive Plan payouts might have on the Company's ability to retain and reward those key employees necessary to help the Company meet its financial and business objectives, the Compensation Committee determined that it was appropriate to approve a 10.6% increase to the Short-Term Plan payouts for Corporate lift truck participants, and an increase of 4.4% to the Short-Term Plan payouts for Nuvera participants, including Messrs. A. Rankin and Prasad. Given all of the outside constraints impacting supply chain and shipping during 2021, the amount of the increase was generally determined by calculating 2021 revenue using bookings instead of shipments.

Long-Term Incentive Compensation
The purpose of our Equity Long-Term Incentive PlansPlan is to enable senior management employees to accumulate capital through future managerial performance, which the Compensation Committee believes contributes to the future success of our business. Our Long-Term Incentive Plans require long-term commitment on the part of our senior management employees and cash withdrawals or stock sales are generally not permitted for a number of years. Rather,In 2021, all of the NEOs participated in our Equity Long-Term Plan. The Compensation Committee has determined that the ten-year holding period applies to all award shares issued to our NEOs. Thus, the awarded amount is effectively invested in the Company for an extended period to strengthen the tie between stockholders' and the NEOs' long-term interests.
Those individual NEOs who have a greater impact on our long-term strategy receive a higher percentage of their compensation as long-term compensation. The Compensation Committee does not consider aan NEO's long-term incentive awards for prior periods when determining the value of a long-term incentive award for the current period because it considers those prior awards to represent compensation for past services.
In 2018, all ofAny gains the NEOs participated in our Equity Long-Term Plan. With respect to the participants in the Equity Long-Term Plan, any gains the executives realize in the long run depend largely on what management does to drive the financial performance of the Company and increase the stock price. This is because the restricted shares of Class A Common that are awarded to the NEOs under the Equity Long-Term Plan generally may not be transferred for ten years following the last day of the award year. During the holding period, the ultimate value of the shares is subject to change based on the value of the shares of stock. The value of the award is enhanced as the value of the stock increases or is reduced as the value of the stock decreases. Thus, the awards provide the executivesNEOs with an incentive over the ten-year period to increase the value of the Company, which is expected to be reflected in the increased value of the stock awarded. The Compensation Committee believes that this encourages our executives to maintain a long-term focus on our profitability, which is also in the Company's best interests.
As a result of the annual grants under the Equity Long-Term Plan and the corresponding transfer restrictions, the number of shares of Class A Common that an executiveNEO holds generally increases each year. Consequently, our executivesNEOs will continue to have or accumulate exposure to long-term Company performance notwithstanding any short-term changes in the price of shares of Class A Common. This increased exposure strongly aligns the long-term interests of the NEOs with those of other stockholders.
For 2018,2021, approximately 65% of the Equity Long-Term Plan2021 awards for the NEOs waswere to be distributed in shares of restricted stock,transfer-restricted Class A Common, with the remaining 35% beingto be distributed in cash to initially approximate the income tax withholding obligations for the stock. In addition, at the time the stock awards wereare issued, an NEO automatically surrenders a portion of his shares to the Company to pay for additional tax withholding obligations associated with the award, if necessary. The actual number of shares of stock issued to a participant is determined by taking the dollar value of the stock component of the award and dividing it by a formula share price. For this purpose, the formula share price is calculated as the lesser of:

ParticipantsEquity Long-Term Plan participants have all of the rights of a stockholder, including the right to vote, upon receipt of the shares. The participants also have the right to receive dividends that are declared and paid after they receive the award shares. The full amount of the award, including the fair market value of the award shares on the date of grant, is fully taxable to the participant. The award shares that are issued to the NEOs are subject to transfer restrictions that generally lapse on the earliest to occur of:
•ten years after the last day of the performance period;
•the participant'sNEO's death or permanent disability; or
•five years (or earlier with the approval of the Compensation Committee) from the date of retirement.
The Compensation Committee has the right to release the restrictions at an earlier date, but rarely does so for circumstances other than:except in the case of the release of a limited number of shares for: (i) the purchase of a principal residence for the participant; (ii) payment of medical expenses for the participant, his or her spouse or his or her dependents; or (iii) payment of expenses for the education of the participant, his or her spouse or his or her dependents within the next 18 months. No such early release requests were requested or granted to the NEOs in 2021.
For 2018,2021, the Equity Long-Term Incentive Plans werePlan was designed to provide target long-term incentive compensation to the NEOs of between 70% and 290% of midpoint, depending on the NEO's position. The table below shows the long-term2021 target awards (including a 15% increase in target percentages to reflect the immediately taxable nature of the equity awards) and payouts under the Long-Term Incentive Plans approved by the Compensation Committee for each NEO under the Equity Long-Term Plan :

(2)Awards under the Equity Long-Term Plan are initially denominated in dollars. The amounts shown in columns (C) and (E) reflect the 2018(3)    Awards under the Equity Long-Term Plan are initially denominated in dollars. The amounts shown in columns (C) and (E) reflect the 2021 dollar-denominated target and actual awards. This is the amount that is used by the Compensation Committee when analyzing the total compensation of the NEOs. The dollar-denominated awards are then paid to the participants in a combination of cash (approximately 35%) and restricted stock (approximately 65%). The number of shares of stock issued was determined using the formula share price described above. The amount shown in column (G) is the sum of (i) the cash distributed and (ii) the grant date fair value of the stock that was initially issued for the 2021 long-term awards. This amount is computed in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718 and is the same as the amount that is disclosed in the Summary Compensation Table on page 30. The shares were valued on the date on which the Equity Long-Term Plan awards were approved by the Compensation Committee. The difference in the amounts disclosed in columns (E) and (G) is due to the fact that the number of shares issued was calculated using the formula share price of $44.34 while the grant date fair value was calculated using $35.09 which is the average of the high and low share price on the date fair value of the stock that was initially issued for the 2018 long-term awards. This amount is computed in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718 and is the same as the amount that is disclosed in the Summary Compensation Table on page 34. Since the Compensation Committee approved the Equity Long-Term Plan awards on President's Day, when the markets were closed due to the national holiday, the shares were valued on the last trading day before the day on which the Equity Long-Term Plan awards were approved by the Compensation Committee. The difference in the amounts disclosed in columns (E) and (G) is due to the fact that the number of shares issued was calculated using the formula share price of $68.267 while the grant date fair value was calculated using $73.615 which is the average of the high and low share price on the last trading day before the day the shares were granted.
(3)Mr. Prasad was promoted effective February 1, 2018, effectively serving in his pre-promotion position for the first month of 2018 (in other words, 1/12 of the year) and in his post-promotion position for the last eleven months of 2018 (in other words, 11/12 of the year). The salary midpoint and Long-Term Plan target shown above are the 2018 annualized post-promotion amounts. The Long-Term Plan Payout amounts shown above and on the Summary Compensation Table are the blended amounts actually received by Mr. Prasad in 2018.

Discretionary Cash Bonuses. The Compensation Committee has the authority to grant, and has from time to time granted, discretionary cash bonuses to our employees, including the NEOs, in addition to the Incentive Plan compensation described above. The Compensation Committee uses discretionary cash bonuses to reward substantial achievement or superior service to the Company and/or its subsidiaries, particularly when such achievement or service is not reflected in the performance criteria established under our Incentive Plans. No discretionary cash bonuses were awarded to the NEOs for 20182021 performance.
Discretionary Stock Awards. The Company maintains the Hyster-Yale Materials Handling, Inc. Supplemental Long-Term Equity Incentive Plan, referred to as the Supplemental Equity Plan, which gives the Compensation Committee the flexibility to provide discretionary additional equity compensation. To date, the Compensation Committee has not granted any awards under the Supplemental Equity Plan.
Retirement Plans. The material terms of our retirement plans are described in the narratives following the Pension Benefits Table and the Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Table.
Defined Benefit Pension Plans. The NEOs do not currently accrue any defined benefit pension benefits. Mr. Wilson is entitled to receive payments from a frozen pension plan as indicated in the Pension Benefits Table on page 40.
Defined Contribution Plans. We provide the NEOs and most other full-time employees with defined contribution retirement benefits. Employer contributions are calculated under formulas that are designed to provide employees with competitive retirement income. The Compensation Committee believes that the target level of retirement benefits gives us the ability to attract and retain talented management employees at the senior executive level and below.
In general, the NEOs and other executive officers receive the same retirement benefits as all other similarly-situated employees. However, (i) certain retirement benefits that are provided to Messrs. A. Rankin and Wilson exceed the benefits that are provided to other employees and (ii) the benefits that are provided to the NEOs and other executive officers in the U.S. are provided under a combination of tax-favored and Excess Plans, while the benefits that are provided to other employees are provided generally only under tax-favored plans. The Excess Plans provide the eligible U.S. employees with the retirement benefits that would have been provided under the tax-favored plans, but that cannot be provided due to various Internal Revenue Service regulations, limits and non-discrimination requirements.
Our defined contribution plans contain the following three types of benefits:
•employee deferrals;
•matching (or substitute matching) employer contributions; and
•profit sharing benefits.
The "compensation" that is taken into account under these plans generally includes base salary and Short-Term Plan payments, but excludes most other forms of compensation, including long-term incentive compensation and other discretionary payments. The NEOs other than Mr. A. Rankin may elect to defer up to 25% of compensation. Mr. A. Rankin no longer defers any compensation
The NEOs received employer matching contributions under the defined contribution plans.
Under the matching portion of the defined contribution plans for 2018, the NEOs received employer matching contributions2021 in accordance with the following formulas:
•Mr. A. Rankin: an automatic 3% employer contribution; and
•Messrs. Schilling, Wilson,Prasad, Salgado and Pascarelli and Prasad: a 3% match on the first 6% of contributions to the plans.
Under the profit sharing portion of the plans, eligible employees receive a profit sharing contribution equal to a specified percentage of compensation that varies depending on the employee's age, compensation and our operating profit

•Messrs. A. Rankin, Schilling and WilsonPascarelli: between 4.50% and 14.90% of compensation; and
Messrs. Schilling, Pascarelli and•Mr. Prasad: between 3.80% and 12.25% of compensation; and
•Mr. Salgado: between 3.20% and 10.05% of compensation.
TheAll of the NEOs are all100% vested in their retirement benefits. Benefits under the tax-favored plans are payable at any time following a termination of employment. Participants have the right to invest their tax-favored account balances among various investment options that are offered by the plans' trustees. Participants can elect various forms of payment including lump sum distributions and installments.
Under the Excess Plans:
•participants' account balances, other than excess profit sharing benefits, are credited with earnings during the year based on the rate of return of the Vanguard Retirement Savings Trust fixed income fund, which is one of the investment funds under the U.S. qualified defined contribution plan, with a 14% maximum per year;
•no interest is credited on excess profit sharing benefits;
•
•the amounts credited under the Excess Plans each year are paid prior to March 15th of the following year to avoid regulatory complexities and eliminate the risk of non-payment to the executives based on the unfunded nature of the Excess Plans; and
•th of the following year to avoid regulatory complexities and eliminate the risk of non-payment to the executives based on the unfunded nature of the Excess Plans; and

the amounts credited under the Excess Plans each year are increased by 15% to reflect the immediately taxable nature of the payments. The 15% increase applies to all benefits other than interest and the portion of the employee deferrals that are in excess of the amount needed to obtain a full employer matching contribution.
Mr. Wilson maintains an account under the HYG Unfunded Benefit Plan (the "Frozen Unfunded Plan") that was frozen effective December 31, 2007. His frozen account is subject to the following rules:
The frozen account is credited with interest each year. For 2018, interest on Mr. Wilson's account is credited at the rate of 2% during the year. His account is then credited with additional interest credits after year-end based on a formula that takes into account the final payout percentage under the Cash Long-Term Plan for the year, with a maximum of 14%.
•
The amount of the annual interest credits, increased by 15% to reflect the immediately taxable nature of the payments, is paid prior to March 15th of the following year.
The frozen account (including unpaid interest for the year of payment, if any) will be paid at the earlier of termination of employment (subject to a six-month delay if required under Section 409A of the Code) or a change in control.
Upon payment of the frozen account, a determination will be made whether the highest incremental state and federal personal income tax rates in the year of payment exceed the rates that were in effect in 2008 when all other participants received their payments from the Frozen Unfunded Plan. In the event the rates have increased, an additional tax gross-up payment will be paid to Mr. Wilson. The Compensation Committee determined that we, and not the executive, should bear the risk of a tax increase after 2008 because Mr. Wilson would have received payment of his frozen account in 2008 were it not for the adverse cash flow and income tax impact on us. No other tax gross-ups (such as gross-ups for excise or other taxes) will be paid.
Other Benefits. All salaried U.S. employees, including the NEOs, participate in a variety of health and welfare benefit plans that are designed to enable us to attract and retain our workforce in a competitive marketplace.
Perquisites and Other Personal Benefits. Although we provideThe modest amount of cash paid to the NEOs in lieu of perquisites in 2021 is separately disclosed in the table on page 19 and the limited non-cash perquisites and other personal benefits to certain executives (mostly outside the U.S.), we do not believe these perquisites and other personal benefits constitute a material component of the executive officer's compensation package. Seeare disclosed in note (5)6 to the Summary Compensation Table on page 34.30.
Employment and Severance Agreements. Consistent with our general severance arrangement, upon an NEO's termination of employment with us for any reason, the NEO is entitled to:
•amounts or benefits earned or accrued during their term of employment, including earned but unpaid salary and accrued but unused vacation pay; and
•benefits that are provided in accordance with the terms of the retirement plans, the Incentive Plans and the Excess Plans and the Frozen Unfunded Plan at termination of employment that are further described in this Proxy Statement.
    There are no individual severance contracts with any of the NEOs. Upon termination of employment in certain circumstances and in accordance with the terms of a broad-based severance plan that applies to all U.S. employees, the NEOs are only entitled to severance pay and continuation of certain health benefits for a stated period of time based on length of service.
The terms and conditions of the employment of our executives outside the United States are generally defined in written agreements that cannot be revised without the consent of both the employer and the executive. Any additional compensation or benefits would be the subject of negotiation.
Limited Change in Control Benefits. In order to advance the compensation objective of attracting, retaining and motivating qualified management, the Compensation Committee believes that it is appropriate to provide limited change in control protections to the NEOs and other employees.employees. The accrued account balances under the Cash Long-Term Plan, the Excess Plans and the Frozen Unfunded Plan will automatically be paid in the form of a lump sum payment in the event of a change in control provisions under our 2021 Incentive Plans provided for the payment of the Company or the participant's employer. A pro-rataa pro-rated target award underfor the current year's Incentive Plans will also be paid inyear of the event of a change in control. TheThe Compensation Committee believes that:
The•the change in control payment triggers are appropriate due to the unfunded nature of the benefits provided under these plans;
The•the skills, experience and services of our key management employees are a strong factor in our success and that the occurrence of a change in control transaction would create uncertainty for these employees; and
Some•in a more typical year, some key management employees would consider terminating employment in order to trigger the payment of their unfunded benefits if an immediate payment is not made when a change in control occurs.
Our change in control payment triggers are designed to encourage key management employees to remain employed during and after a change in control.

The change in control payment trigger under the Excess Plans and the Frozen Unfunded Plan does not increase the amount of the benefits payable under those plans. Participants will only receive their accrued account balance (including interest) as of the date of the change in control. However, the change in control provisions under our Incentive Plans, in addition to providing for the immediate payment of the account balance (plus interest) under the Cash Long-Term Plan as of the date of the change in control (if any), also provide for the payment of a pro-rated award target for the year of the change in control.
Importantly, these change in control provisions are not employment agreements and do not guarantee employment for any of the executives for any period of time. In addition, none of the payments under any plan will be "grossed up" for any excise taxes imposed on the executives as a result of the receipt of payments upon a change in control.

Tax and Accounting Implications
Deductibility of Executive Compensation. Code Section 162(m) provides that, subject to certain exceptions, we may not deduct compensation of more than $1 million in any taxable year that is paid to certain executive officers (and, beginning in 2018,and certain former executive officers). Historically, compensation that qualifies as “performance-based compensation” under Code Section 162(m) could be excluded from this $1 million limit, but this exception has now been repealed, effective for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2017, unless certain transition relief for certain compensation arrangements in place as of November 2, 2017 is available. For 2018, we do not expect that payouts under our Incentive Plans will qualify for transition relief or will otherwise be excludable from the $1 million cap that Code Section 162(m) imposes for purposes of federal income tax deductibility.
officers. While the Compensation Committee may consider in very general terms the deductibility of the compensation it awards, the Committee retains the flexibility to awardnevertheless awards compensation that is consistent with our objectives and philosophy even if it does not qualify for a tax deduction. The Compensation Committee believes that the tax deduction limitation should not be permitted to compromise our ability to design and maintain executive compensation arrangements that will attract and retain the executive talent to compete successfully. Accordingly, achieving the desired flexibility in the design and delivery of compensation may result in compensation that in certain cases is not deductible for federal income tax purposes.
Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation. We account for stock-based payments in accordance with the requirements of FASB ASC Topic 718. Based on FASB ASC Topic 718, the grant date of the awards under the Equity Long-Term Plan for this purpose is the date on which the award shares are issued, which occurs in the year following the year in which the shares are earned. See Note 65 of the Company's audited consolidated financial statements in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 20182021 for more information regarding accounting treatment of our equity awards.
Other Policies and Considerations
Assessment of Risks in our Compensation Program. As part of its oversight, the Compensation Committee considers the impact of the Company's compensation program on the Company's risk profile. The Committee directed management to annually undertake a detailed risk assessment of our compensation programs. Each year, management with the assistance of outside legal counsel, reviews our pay practices and incentive programs to identify any potential risks to the Company.Company and then reviews this information with the Compensation Committee. Our pay philosophy: provides an effective balance of base salary and incentive compensation;compensation, short and long-term performance measures;measures, and financial and non-financial performance measuresmeasures; and allows for the use of Compensation Committee discretion. Further, the Company has: policies to mitigate compensation-related risk including lengthy holding periods for long-term awards;awards granted to our NEOs; stated payment caps; insider-trading prohibitionsprohibitions; and independent Compensation Committee oversight. The Compensation Committee agreed with the findings of management's assessment for 20182021 that (1) our compensation programs are effectively designed to help mitigate conduct that is inconsistent with building long-term value of the Company and (2) the risks arising from the Company's compensation policies and practices are not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company.
Stock Ownership Guidelines. While the Company encourages the executive officers to own shares of Class A Common, it does not have any formal policy requiring the executive officers to own any specified amount of Class A Common. However, the shares of Class A Common granted to the NEOs under the Equity Long-Term Plan generally must be held for a period of ten years which can result in the executive officersNEOs being required to hold a significant accumulation of Class A Common during their careers.
Role of Executive Officers in Compensation Decisions.Our management, in particular the CEO of the Company and the CEO of HYG, reviews our goals and objectives relevant to the compensation of our executive officers. The CEO of HYG annually reviews the performance of each executive officer (other than the CEO of HYG whose performance is reviewed by the CEO of the Company, and the CEO of the Company, whose performance is reviewed by the Compensation Committee) and makes recommendations based on these reviews, including with respect to salary adjustments and incentive compensation award amounts, to the Compensation Committee. In addition to the CEO recommendations, the Compensation Committee considers recommendations made by Korn Ferry, our independent outside compensation consultant, which bases its recommendations upon an analysis of similar positions at a broad range of domestic industries, as well as an understanding of our policies and objectives, as described above. The Compensation Committee can exercise its discretion in modifying any recommended adjustments or

awards to executive officers. After considering these recommendations, the Compensation Committee determines the base salary and incentive compensation levels for the executive officers, including each NEO, and any additional discretionary payments.
Executive Compensation Program for 20192022 and Impact of "Say on Pay""Say-on-Pay" Stockholder Vote
When setting executive compensation for 2019,2022, the Compensation Committee took into account the resultsresults of the stockholder advisory vote on named executive officer compensation that occurred at our 20162021 annual meeting of stockholders. Stockholders who cast votes overwhelmingly (94%(over 99%) approved the compensation of our named executive officers described in our 20162021 proxy statement.
Consequently, our executive compensation program for 2022 will be structured in a manner similar to our 2021 program. Principle changes for 2022 include: (1) modifications to salary midpoints and base salaries in view of internal considerations as well as marketplace practice as reflected in analyses, general survey data relating to salary trends and the recommendations of Korn Ferry based on an updated General Industrial survey; and (2) changes to certain performance measures, weightings and/or targets for the Incentive Plans based on management recommendations as to the performance objectives of our business for 2022.

Description of Material Factors Relating to the Summary Compensation Table and Grants of Plan-Based Awards Table
The compensation of the NEOs consists of the following components: base salary (which includes the perquisite allowance for U.S. executives)allowance), short-term cash incentives and long-term equity and non-equity incentives. All of the NEOs also receive various retirement benefits. Each of these components is described in detail in the "Compensation Discussion and Analysis" which begins on page 18.17. Additional details of certain components are provided below.

Equity Compensation
In 2018,2021, the NEOs participated in the Equity Long-Term Plan. All U.S. employees are also eligible to receive discretionary equity awards under the Supplemental Equity Plan. All awards are based on one-year performance periods and are immediately vested and paid (subject to transfer restrictions) when approved by the Compensation Committee. Therefore, no equity awards remain outstanding to vest for the year ended December 31, 2018.2021.
Awards under the Equity Long-Term Plan are paid partially in cash and partially in the form of fully vested shares of restricted stock. While the stock is fully vested at the time of grant, it is subject to transfer restrictions generally for a period of ten years from the datelast day of grant.the performance period. The transfer restrictions provide participantsthe NEOs with an incentive to increase the value of the Company over the ten-year restricted period, which is expected to be reflected in the increased value of the stock. Refer to "Long-Term Incentive Compensation" beginning on page 2825 and note (4) of the "Grants of Plan-Based Awards" table beginning on page 3531 for additional information regarding our equity awards. The following table reflects the stock awards issued under the Equity Long-Term Plan for 20182021 performance. No stock awards have been issued under the Supplemental Equity Plan.

Potential Payments Upon Termination/Change in Control
The following change in control provisions are contained in the Incentive Plans, Excess Plans and Frozen Unfunded Plan:
the account balances as of the date of the change in control in the Cash Long-Term Plan, the Excess Plans and the Frozen Unfunded Plan will automatically be paid in the form of a lump sum payment in the event of a change in control of the Company or the participant's employer; and
the change in control provisions under our 2021 Incentive Plans in addition to providing for the immediate payment of the account balance (plus interest) as of the date of the change in control, also provide for the payment of a pro-rated target award for the year of the change in control.
A "change in control" for purposes of these plans generally consists of any of the following provided that the event otherwise qualifies as a change in control under the regulations issued under Section 409A of the Code:
(1) An acquisition of more than 50% of the voting securities of the Company or the voting securities of the subsidiary (for those employees of that particular subsidiary) other than acquisitions directly from the Company or the subsidiary, as applicable, involving:
•any employee benefit plan;

•the Company;
•the applicable subsidiary or one of its affiliates; or
•the parties to the stockholders' agreement discussed under "Amount and Nature of Beneficial Ownership - Class B Common Stock" on page 45;38;
(2) The members of the Company's current Board of Directors (and their approved successors) ceasing to constitute a majority of the Company's Board of Directors or, if applicable, the board of directors of a successor of the Company;
(3) For those plans that cover the employees of a subsidiary, the consummation of a reorganization, merger or consolidation or sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the subsidiary and its affiliates, excluding a business combination pursuant to which the individuals and entities who beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, more than 50% of the combined voting power of the applicable entity immediately prior to such business combination continue to hold at least 50% of the voting securities of the successor; and
(4) For all plans, the consummation of a reorganization, merger or consolidation or sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company or the acquisition of assets of another corporation, or other transaction involving the Company excluding, however, a business combination pursuant to which both of the following apply:

For purposes of calculating the amount of any potential payments to the NEOs under the table provided below, we have assumed that a change in control occurred on December 31, 2018.2021. We believe that the remaining assumptions listed below, which are necessary to produce these estimates, are reasonable individually and in the aggregate. However, there can be no assurance that a change in control would produce the same or similar results as those described if it occurs on any other date or if any assumption is not correct in fact.

The following is a summary of special rules that apply under each plan that are not otherwise described therein.
Executive Excess Plan: In addition to the substitute matching and profit sharing benefits previously described, Mr. A. Rankin also annually receives a benefit of $37,710 credited to his account under the Executive Excess Plan.
Frozen Unfunded Plan: From January 1, 2000 through May 31, 2000, Mr. Wilson was not eligible to participate in our tax-favored defined contribution plan. Instead, he deferred a portion of his salary and bonus under the Frozen Unfunded Plan. When he became a participant in the U.S. qualified defined contribution plan, these additional deferrals ceased.
Cash Long-Term Plan: The awards granted under the Cash Long-Term Plan are subject to the following rules:
The awards are immediately vested as of the grant datevalue of the award (which isin cash, and the January 1st following the endremainder in shares of the performance period).restricted stock.
Once granted, awards are not subject to any forfeiture or risk of forfeiture.

Awards approved by the Compensation Committee for a calendar year are credited to separate sub-accounts established for each participant for each award year. During 2018, the sub-accounts were credited with 2% interest during the year. If a participant remained actively employed through 2018, additional interest was credited based on the chart that converted the payout factor under the Cash Long-Term Plan to a specified interest rate, with a maximum of 14% maximum per year.
Each sub-account is paid at the earliest of death, disability, retirement, change in control or on the third anniversary of the grant date of the award.

(2)For Mr. Wilson, the number of years of credited service taken into account to determine pension benefits under the UK Plan was frozen as of May 31, 1995.
Description of Pension Plans
Messrs. A. Rankin, Schilling, Pascarelli and Prasad do not participate in any of our pension plans. Mr. Wilson is entitled to receive frozen pension benefits that are 100% vested.
The amounts shown above were determined as of December 31, 2018, which is the measurement date for pension benefits that is used in our financial statements. In determining the present value of the pension benefits under the UK Plan, a discount rate of 2.65%and an assumed retirement age of 65 with no pre-retirement decrement was used. The following additional material assumptions were used in the calculations:
For the UK Plan, the SAPS series mortality table, year of use 2018, with a 1.25 multiplier and an annual cost-of-living adjustment of 2.00% (in-payment).
Mr. Wilson was a participant in the UK Plan for periods prior to May 31, 1995. His pension benefits in the UK Plan are generally computed under the following formula: 1/45th of "final average pay" multiplied by years of credited service before June 30, 2004 plus 1/60th of "final average pay" multiplied by years of credited service after June 30, 2004. For computing pension benefits under the UK Plan, "final average pay" is based on the highest annual average of pay in any period of three consecutive years in the ten years immediately preceding May 31, 1995 for Mr. Wilson. For purposes of the UK Plan, "pay" is generally a participant's annual salary excluding bonuses, commissions, overtime payments and shift allowances less a U.K. based national insurance contributions deduction. Mr. Wilson is eligible for unreduced early retirement benefits under the UK Plan. Pension payments are paid in the form of a monthly annuity with survivorship protection.
CEO Pay Ratio
As wasis permitted under applicable SEC rules, to determine our median employee last year,two years ago, we chose "base salary" for the period beginning on January 1, 20172019 and ending on December 31, 20172019 as our consistently applied compensation measure. For salaried employees, we estimated annual base salary using salary grade midpoints. For labor grade employees, we estimated annual base salary using labor grade wage rates and reasonable estimates of hours worked in a given year. Using a determination date of October 1, 2017,2019, a valid statistical sampling methodology was used to estimate the median base salary for 6,695 7,836employees. This number did not exclude any non-U.S. employees, although such exclusion would have been permitted

under applicable SEC rules. We then produced a sample of employees who were paid within a 10% range of the median and selected an employee from within that group as our median employee for 2019.
In order to prepare last year’s disclosure relating to 2020 pay, we did not repeat the process described above because there had been no change in our employee population or employee compensation arrangements that we reasonably believed would significantly impact our pay ratio disclosure. As a result under SEC rules, we were allowed to use 2019's median employee for purposes of 2020’s pay ratio calculation and disclosure. However, due to the departure of 2019’s median employee during 2020, we selected a different median employee from the group identified in 2019 to serve as 2020’s median employee.
For purposes of this year’s disclosure relating to 2021 pay, we again did not go through thisrepeat the process again, as we have determined thatundertaken in 2019 (as described above) because there has been no change in our employee population or employee compensation arrangements that we reasonably believe would significantly impact our pay ratio disclosure. As a result under SEC rules, we are allowed to again use last year’s2020's median employee for purposes of this year’s pay ratio calculation and disclosure. However, due to the departure of last year’s2020's median employee during 2018,2021, we haveonce again selected a different median employee from the group identified last yearin 2019 to serve as this year’s median employee. This year’s median employee was the very next employee listed below last year’simmediately above 2020’s median employee in the sample group of employees produced by last year’s2019’s analysis and process.
We determined that this year'sthe median employee's annual total compensation was $52,012$55,213 (determined in accordance with the requirements for the 20182021 Summary Compensation Table), and that our CEO’s annual total compensation for 20182021 was $4,469,254$2,612,927 (the same amount as provided for him in the 20182021 Summary Compensation Table). Our estimate of the ratio of our CEO’s annual total compensation to this year'sthe median employee’s annual total compensation for 20182021 is 86:approximately 47:1. We note that, due to our permitted use of reasonable estimates and assumptions in preparing this pay ratio disclosure, the disclosure may involve a degree of imprecision, and thus this pay ratio disclosure is a reasonable estimate calculated in a manner consistent with Item 402(u) of Regulation S-K using the data and assumptions described above.

The shares of Class B Common subject to the stockholders' agreement constituted 85.2% of the Class B Common outstanding on March 1, 2019 or 64.1% of the combined voting power of all Class A Common and Class B Common outstanding on such date. Certain Signatories own Class A Common, which is not subject to the stockholders' agreement.

The NCG Committee will consider candidates recommended by stockholders on the same basis as candidates from other sources.
The NCG Committee utilizes a variety of methods for identifying and evaluating nominees for directors. The NCG Committee regularly reviews the appropriate size of our Board of Directors and whether any vacancies on our Board of Directors are expected due to retirement or otherwise. In the event vacancies are anticipated, or otherwise arise, the NCG Committee may consider various potential candidates. Candidates may be recommended by current members of our Board of

(a)Required Amount. From time to time, the Board shall determine (i) the amount of the retainer to be paid to each Director for each calendar quarter of a year, (ii) subject to Section 4.1(b), the portion of the retainer that shall be paid in cash and (iii) the equity portion of the retainer (expressed in dollars) that is required to be paid in Shares as described in Section 4.1(c) (the “Required Amount”), in each case subject to pro-ration in the event that the Director begins or ceases non-employee Director service during the applicable calendar quarter.
(b)Voluntary Shares. For any calendar quarter, a Director may elect to have up to 100% of the cash component of the retainer payable for such quarter in excess of the Required Amount, and any other cash to be earned by the Director for such quarter for services as a director of the Company (collectively referred to as a “Voluntary Amount”), not paid to the Director in cash, but instead to have the Voluntary Amount applied to the issuance or transfer to the Director of Voluntary Shares as described in Section 4.1(c); provided that the Director must notify the Company in writing of such election prior to the first day of the calendar quarter for which such election is made, which election will be irrevocable after such date for

Shares and Voluntary Shares shall be fully paid, nonassessable shares of Class A Common Stock.

The Company shall pay any and all fees and commissions incurred in connection with the purchase by the Company of shares of Class A Common Stock which are to be Shares or Voluntary Shares and the transfer to Directors of Shares or Voluntary Shares.
(d)Withholding Taxes. To the extent that the Company is required to withhold federal, state, local or other taxes in connection with any amount payable to a Director under this Plan, and the amounts available to the Company for such withholding are insufficient, it shall be a condition to the receipt of any Shares or Voluntary Shares that the Director make arrangements satisfactory to the Company for the payment of the balance of such taxes required to be withheld, which arrangements may include relinquishment of the Shares or the Voluntary Shares. To the extent permitted under applicable law, the Company and Director may also make similar arrangements with respect to the payment of any other taxes derived from or related to the payment of Shares or Voluntary Shares with respect to which withholding is not required.
2.    Restrictions on Shares.

Shares transferred to a person other than the Director pursuant to a QDRO shall not be subject to the restrictions described in this Section 4.2(a), but Shares transferred to a trust or partnership for the benefit of a Director, or such Director’s spouse, children or grandchildren, shall remain subject to the restrictions described in this Section 4.2(a) until such restrictions lapse pursuant to the following sentence. The restrictions on Shares set forth in this Section shall lapse for all purposes and shall be of no further force or effect upon the earliest to occur of (A) ten years after the Quarter Date with respect to which such Shares were issued or transferred, (B) the date of the death or permanent disability of the Director, (C) five years (or earlier with the approval of the Board) after the Director’s retirement from the Board, (D) the date that a Director is both retired from the Board and has reached 70 years of age or (E) at such other time as determined by the Board in its sole and absolute discretion. Following the lapse of restrictions, at the Director’s request, the Company shall take all such action as may be necessary to remove such restrictions from the stock certificates, or other applicable records with respect to uncertificated shares, representing the Shares, such that the resulting shares shall be fully paid, nonassessable and unrestricted by the terms of this Plan.
(b)Dividends, Voting Rights, Exchanges, Etc. Except for the restrictions set forth in this Section 4.2 and any restrictions required by law, a Director shall have all rights of a stockholder with respect to his Shares including the right to vote and to receive dividends as and when declared by the Board and paid by the Company. Except for any restrictions required by law, a Director shall have all rights of a stockholder with respect to his Voluntary Shares.
(c)Restriction on Transfer of Rights to Shares. No rights to Shares or Voluntary Shares shall be assigned, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise transferred by a Director or any other person, voluntarily or involuntarily, other than (i) by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, or (ii) pursuant to a QDRO.
(d)Legend. The Company shall cause an appropriate legend to be placed on each certificate, or other applicable record(s) with respect to uncertificated shares, for the Shares, reflecting the foregoing restrictions.
4.Amendment, Termination and Adjustments
(a) The Board may alter or amend the Plan from time to time or may terminate it in its entirety; provided, however, that no such action shall, without the consent of a Director, affect the rights in any Shares or Voluntary Shares that were previously issued or transferred to the Director or that were earned by, but not yet issued or transferred to, such Director. Unless otherwise specified by the Board, all Shares that were issued or transferred prior to the termination of this Plan shall continue to be subject to the terms of this Plan following such termination; provided that the transfer restrictions on such Shares

shall lapse in accordance with Section 4.2(a). In any event, no Shares or Voluntary Shares may be issued or transferred under this Plan or after the tenth anniversary of the Effective Date.
(b) Notwithstanding the provisions of Subsection 5(a), without further approval by the stockholders of the Company, no such amendment or termination shall (i) materially increase the total number of shares of Class A Common Stock that may be issued or transferred under this Plan specified in Section 6 (except that adjustments and additions expressly authorized by this Section shall not be limited by this clause (i)) or (ii) make any other change for which stockholder approval would be required under applicable law or stock exchange requirements.
(c) The Board shall make or provide for such adjustments in the Average Share Price, in the kind of shares that may be issued or transferred hereunder, in the number of shares of Class A Common Stock specified in Section 6(a) or 6(b), in the number of outstanding Shares or Voluntary Shares for each Director, and in the terms applicable to the Shares or Voluntary Shares under this Plan, as the Board, in its sole discretion, exercised in good faith, may determine is equitably required to reflect (i) any stock dividend, stock split, combination of shares, recapitalization or any other change in the capital structure of the Company, (ii) any merger, consolidation, spin-off, split-off, spin-out, split-up, reorganization, partial or complete liquidation or other distribution of assets or issuance of rights or warrants to purchase securities, or (iii) any other corporate transaction or event having an effect similar to any of the foregoing ( collectively referred to as an “Extraordinary Event”). Moreover, in the event of any such Extraordinary Event, the Committee may provide in substitution for any or all outstanding Shares or Voluntary Shares under this Plan such alternative consideration (including cash), if any, as it, in good faith, may determine to be equitable under the circumstances and shall require in connection therewith the surrender of all Shares or Voluntary Shares so replaced. All securities received by a Director with respect to Shares or Voluntary Shares in connection with any Extraordinary Event shall be deemed to be Shares or Voluntary Shares, as applicable, for purposes of this Plan and such Shares shall be restricted pursuant to the terms of this Plan to the same extent and for the same period as if such securities were the original Shares with respect to which they were issued or transferred, unless the Board, in its sole and absolute discretion, eliminates such restrictions or accelerates the time at which such restrictions on transfer shall lapse.
5.Class A Common Stock Subject to Plan
(a)Subject to adjustment as provided in this Plan, the total number of shares of Class A Common Stock that may be issued or transferred under this Plan on or after the Effective Date will not exceed in the aggregate 100,000. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Plan, shares of Class A Common Stock withheld by the Company, tendered or otherwise used to satisfy any tax withholding obligation will count against the aggregate number of shares of Class A Common Stock available under this Section 6(a).
