Our board of directors is soliciting your proxy to vote at the 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (together with any adjournments, postponements, or continuations thereof, the “Annual Meeting”) of Loar Holdings Inc., a Delaware corporation, for the purposes set forth in this proxy statement for the Annual Meeting (this “Proxy Statement”). The Annual Meeting will be exclusively held virtually via live webcast on the internet on Tuesday, June 3, 2025 at 10 a.m., Eastern Time. Beginning on or about April 22, 2025, the Company mailed the Notice of Annual Meeting of Shareholders, our Proxy Statement and form proxy card for the Annual Meeting and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 (the “2024 Annual Report”) to all stockholders entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. If you held shares of our common stock at the close of business on April 21, 2025 (the “Record Date”), you are invited to virtually attend the Annual Meeting at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/LOAR2025 and vote on the proposals described in this Proxy Statement.

In this Proxy Statement, we refer to Loar Holdings Inc. as “Loar,” “the Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our” and the board of directors of Loar as “our board of directors.” The 2024 Annual Report accompanies this Proxy Statement.

The information provided in the “question and answer” format below is for your convenience only and is merely a summary of the information contained elsewhere in this Proxy Statement.

You should read this entire Proxy Statement carefully. Information contained on, or that can be accessed through, our website is not intended to be incorporated by reference into this Proxy Statement and references to our website address in this Proxy Statement are inactive textual references only.

Questions and Answers About the Annual Meeting

What are proxy materials?

As a stockholder, you are invited to attend the Annual Meeting and are requested to vote on the items of business described in this Proxy Statement. A Proxy Statement is a document that includes information that we are required to provide to you under the rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and is designed to assist you in voting your shares at the Annual Meeting. The proxy materials for the Annual Meeting include a proxy card, the Proxy Statement and the 2024 Annual Report. The accompanying proxy is delivered and solicited on behalf of the board of directors of Loar in connection with the Annual Meeting, which will be exclusively held virtually via live webcast on the internet at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/LOAR2025 on June 3, 2025 at 10 a.m., Eastern Time.

Will I receive proxy materials by mail?

Beginning on or about April 22, 2025, the Company mailed the Notice of Annual Meeting of Shareholders, our Proxy Statement and form proxy card for the Annual Meeting and the 2024 Annual Report. The Company’s Proxy Statement and 2024 Annual Report are available at www.proxyvote.com.



What am I voting on? There are three matters scheduled for a vote at the Annual Meeting:

Proposal 1	Proposal 2	Proposal 3

Election of Dirkson Charles, Anthony M. Carpenito, Taiwo Danmola and Paul S. Levy as Class I directors, each to hold office until our annual meeting of stockholders in 2028 and until their successor is duly elected and qualified, or until their earlier death, resignation, or removal.	Ratification of the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP (“EY”) as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025.	Approval of Amended and Restated Loar Holdings Inc. 2024 Equity Incentive Plan.

How does the board of directors recommend I vote on these proposals?

Our board of directors recommends a vote:

●

“FOR” the election of each of Dirkson Charles, Anthony M. Carpenito, Taiwo Danmola and Paul S. Levy as a Class I director;

●

“FOR” the ratification of the appointment of EY as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025; and

●

“FOR” the approval of the Company’s Amended and Restated Loar Holdings Inc. 2024 Equity Incentive Plan.

How many votes are needed for approval of each proposal?

The voting requirements for each proposal being voted on at the Annual Meeting, as well as the effect of votes withheld, abstentions, and broker non-votes, if any, are as follows:

●

Proposal One: Election of Class I directors requires a plurality of the votes properly cast for the applicable nominee to be elected. “Plurality” means that the nominees who receive the largest number of votes cast “FOR” are elected as directors. You may vote “For” or “Withhold” on each of the nominees on this proposal. Proposal One is considered to be a “non-routine” matter under the rules of the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”), meaning that your brokerage firm, bank, or other nominee may not vote your shares on the proposal in the absence of your voting instructions, which would result in a “broker non-vote.” Shares voting “Withhold” and broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of the vote on this proposal.

●

Proposal Two: Ratification of the appointment of EY as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025 requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes properly cast on this proposal. You may vote “For,” “Against,” or “Abstain” on this proposal. Proposal Two is considered to be a “routine” matter under the rules of the NYSE. Accordingly, if you beneficially own your shares and do not provide voting instructions to your brokerage firm, bank, or other nominee by its deadline, your shares may be voted on Proposal Two by your brokerage firm, bank, or other nominee in its discretion. Abstentions and broker non-votes, if any, will have no effect on the outcome of the vote on this proposal.

●

Proposal Three: Approval of the Company’s Amended and Restated Loar Holdings Inc. 2024 Equity Incentive Plan requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes properly cast on this proposal. You may vote “For,” “Against,” or “Abstain” on this proposal. Proposal Three is considered to be a “non-routine” matter under the rules of the NYSE, meaning that your brokerage firm, bank, or other nominee may not vote your shares on the proposal in the absence of your voting instructions, which would result in a “broker non-vote.” Shares voting “Withhold” and broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of the vote on this proposal.

If I am a stockholder of record and I do not vote, or if I return a proxy card or otherwise vote without giving specific voting instructions, what happens?

If you are a stockholder of record and do not vote through the internet, by telephone, by completing a proxy card, or online during the Annual Meeting, your shares will not be voted. If you return a signed and dated proxy card or otherwise vote without marking voting selections, your shares will be voted in accordance with the recommendations of our board of directors:

●

“FOR” the election of each of Dirkson Charles, Anthony M. Carpenito, Taiwo Danmola and Paul S. Levy as a Class I director;

●

“FOR” the ratification of the appointment of EY as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025; and

●

“FOR” the approval of the Company’s Amended and Restated Loar Holdings Inc. 2024 Equity Incentive Plan.

If any other matter is properly presented at the Annual Meeting, your proxy holder (one of the individuals named on your proxy card) will vote your shares using his or her best judgment.

If I am a beneficial owner of shares held in an account with a brokerage firm, bank, or other nominee (or in “street name”) and I do not provide my brokerage firm, bank, or other nominee with voting instructions, what happens?

If you are a beneficial owner of shares held in an account with a brokerage firm, bank, or other nominee (or in “street name”) and do not instruct your brokerage firm, bank, or other nominee how to vote your shares, your brokerage firm, bank, or other nominee may still be able to vote your shares in its discretion. Under the rules of the NYSE, brokerage firms, banks, and other nominees that are subject to NYSE rules may use their discretion to vote your “uninstructed” shares on matters considered to be “routine” under NYSE rules, but not with respect to “non-routine” matters. A broker non-vote occurs when a brokerage firm, bank, or other nominee has not received voting instructions from the beneficial owner of the shares and the brokerage firm, bank, or other nominee cannot vote the shares because the matter is considered “non-routine” under NYSE rules. Proposal One and Proposal Three are considered to be “non-routine” under NYSE rules, meaning that your brokerage firm, bank, or other nominee may not vote your shares on the proposal in the absence of your voting instructions, which would result in a “broker non-vote.” Conversely, Proposal Two is considered to be “routine” under NYSE rules, meaning that if you do not return voting instructions to your brokerage firm, bank, or other nominee by its deadline, your shares may be voted on Proposal Two by your brokerage firm, bank, or other nominee in its discretion.

What are “broker non-votes”?

As discussed above, when a beneficial owner of shares held in “street name” does not give voting instructions to the brokerage firm, bank, or other nominee as to how to vote your shares on matters considered to be “non-routine” under NYSE rules, the brokerage firm, bank, or other nominee cannot vote the shares. These unvoted shares are counted as “broker non-votes.” Each of Proposal One and Proposal Three is a “non-routine” matter under NYSE rules and, therefore, broker non-votes may occur in connection with Proposal One or Proposal Three.

What is a quorum?

A quorum is the minimum number of shares or voting power required to be present at the Annual Meeting to properly hold an annual meeting of stockholders and conduct business under our amended and restated bylaws (our “Bylaws”) and Delaware law.

A quorum will be present if stockholders holding a majority of the voting power of the outstanding shares of our stock entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting are present at the Annual Meeting either by virtual attendance or by proxy. As of the Record Date, there were 93,556,071 shares of common stock outstanding and entitled to vote. Each share of common stock is entitled to one vote on each proposal.

Your shares will be counted as present only if you submit a valid proxy (or one is submitted on your behalf by your brokerage firm, bank, or other nominee) or if you vote online during the Annual Meeting. Votes withheld, abstentions, and broker non-votes will be counted as shares present for purposes of the quorum requirement. If there is no quorum, the chairperson of the Annual Meeting or holders of a majority of the voting power of the shares present at the Annual Meeting may adjourn or postpone the Annual Meeting to another date.

What if another matter is properly brought before the Annual Meeting?

Our board of directors does not intend to bring any other matters to be voted on at the Annual Meeting, and currently knows of no other matters that will be presented for consideration at the Annual Meeting. If any other matters are properly brought before the Annual Meeting, your proxy holder (one of the individuals named on your proxy card) will vote your shares using his or her best judgment.

How do I attend and ask questions during the Annual Meeting?

We will be hosting the Annual Meeting online via live webcast only. You can attend the Annual Meeting live online at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/LOAR2025 by logging in with your control number. The meeting will start at 10 a.m., Eastern Time, on Tuesday, June 3, 2025. We recommend that you log in a few minutes before 10 a.m., Eastern Time, to ensure you are present when the Annual Meeting starts. The webcast will open 15 minutes before the start of the Annual Meeting.

In order to enter the Annual Meeting live webcast, you will need your control number, which is located on your proxy card if you are a stockholder of record. If you are the beneficial owner of your shares, your control number is included with your voting instruction card and voting instructions received from your brokerage firm, bank, or other nominee. Instructions on how to attend and participate are available at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/LOAR2025.

If you would like to submit a question during the Annual Meeting, you may log in at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/LOAR2025 using your control number, type your question into the “Ask a Question” field, and click “Submit.” When you log into the Annual Meeting, please review our rules of conduct, which have been prepared to ensure a productive and efficient meeting that is fair to all stockholders in attendance. We will answer as many questions as possible in the time allotted for the Annual Meeting. We will only answer questions that are submitted in accordance with the rules of conduct and are relevant to an agenda item to be

voted on by stockholders at the Annual Meeting, subject to time constraints.

What if I have technical difficulties or trouble accessing the Annual Meeting?

We will have technicians available to assist you with any technical difficulties you may have accessing the virtual Annual Meeting. If you encounter any difficulties accessing the Annual Meeting during the check-in or meeting time, please call the technical support number that is available online at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/LOAR2025.

Why are you holding a virtual meeting?

We are excited to embrace the latest technology to provide ease of access, real-time communication, and cost savings for our stockholders and our company. Hosting a virtual meeting provides easy access for our stockholders and facilitates participation because stockholders can participate from any location around the world. We have structured our virtual meeting to provide stockholders the same rights as if the meeting were held in person, including the ability to vote shares electronically during the meeting and ask questions in accordance with the rules of conduct for the meeting.

Who can vote at the Annual Meeting?

Only stockholders of record at the close of business on the Record Date will be entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. As of the Record Date, there were 93,556,071 shares of common stock outstanding and entitled to vote.

Stockholder of Record: Shares Registered in Your Name

If, at the close of business on the Record Date, your shares were registered directly in your name with our transfer agent, Equiniti Trust Company, LLC, then you are a stockholder of record. As a stockholder of record, you may vote online during the Annual Meeting or by proxy in advance. Whether or not you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, we urge you to vote your shares by proxy in advance of the Annual Meeting through the internet, by telephone, or by completing and returning a printed proxy card.

Beneficial Owner: Shares Held on Your Behalf by a Brokerage Firm, Bank, or Other Nominee

If, at the close of business on the Record Date, your shares were not held in your name, but on your behalf by a brokerage firm, bank, or other nominee, then you are the beneficial owner of shares held in “street name,” and the proxy materials are being forwarded to you by that nominee. Those shares will be reported as being held by the nominee (e.g., your brokerage firm) in the system of record used for identifying stockholders. As a beneficial owner of the shares, you are invited to attend the Annual Meeting, and you have the right to direct your brokerage firm, bank, or other nominee how to vote the shares in your account. Please refer to the voting instructions provided by your brokerage firm, bank, or other nominee. Many brokerage firms, banks, and other nominees enable beneficial owners to give voting instructions by telephone or over the internet as well as in writing. You are also welcome to attend the Annual Meeting and vote online during the meeting. However, because you are not the stockholder of record, you may not vote your shares at the Annual Meeting unless you request and obtain a valid proxy (sometimes referred to as a “legal proxy”) from your brokerage firm, bank, or other nominee. Follow the instructions from your brokerage firm, bank, or other nominee included with the proxy materials, or contact your nominee to request a proxy form. You may access the meeting and vote by logging in with your control number at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/LOAR2025.

How many votes do I have?

Each holder of shares of our common stock will have one vote per share of common stock held as of the Record Date. The holders of the shares of our common stock will vote as a single class on all matters described in this Proxy Statement for which your vote is being solicited.

How can I vote?

Your voting options depend on how you hold your shares.

Stockholder of Record: Shares Registered in Your Name

If you are a stockholder of record, you may vote (i) online during the Annual Meeting or (ii) in advance of the Annual Meeting by proxy through the internet, by telephone, or by using a proxy card that you may request or that we may elect to deliver at a later time. Whether or not you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, we urge you to vote by proxy to ensure your vote is counted. Even if you have submitted a proxy before the meeting, you may still attend online and vote during the meeting. In such case, your previously submitted proxy will be disregarded. For more information, see the question below titled “Can I change my vote or revoke my proxy after submitting a proxy?”

●

To vote online in advance of the Annual Meeting, go to www.proxyvote.com to complete an electronic proxy card. Votes through the internet must be received by 11:59 p.m., Eastern Time, on June 2, 2025 to be counted.

●

To vote by telephone in advance of the Annual Meeting, call 1-800-690-6903 and follow the recorded instructions, including providing the control number located on your proxy card, or in the instructions that accompanied the proxy materials. Votes by telephone must be received by 11:59 p.m., Eastern Time, on June 2, 2025 to be counted.

●

To vote using a printed proxy card in advance of the Annual Meeting, complete, sign, and date a printed proxy card and return it promptly in the envelope provided. If we receive your signed proxy card by 11:59 p.m., Eastern Time, on June 2, 2025, we will vote your shares as directed.

●

To vote online during the Annual Meeting, follow the provided instructions to join the Annual Meeting at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/LOAR2025, starting at 10 a.m., Eastern Time, on Tuesday, June 3, 2025. You will need to enter the control number located on your proxy card, or in the instructions that accompanied the proxy materials. The webcast will open 15 minutes before the start of the Annual Meeting.

Beneficial Owner: Shares Held on Your Behalf by a Brokerage Firm, Bank, or Other Nominee

If you are a beneficial owner of shares held on your behalf by a brokerage firm, bank, or other nominee, you should have received a proxy card containing voting instructions from that nominee rather than from us. To vote online during the Annual Meeting, you must follow the instructions from such nominee.

What is the effect of giving a proxy?

Proxies are solicited by and on behalf of our board of directors. The persons named in the proxy have been designated as proxy holders by our board of directors. When a proxy is properly dated, executed, and returned, the shares represented by such proxy will be voted at the Annual Meeting in accordance with the instructions of the stockholder. If no specific instructions are given, however, the shares will be voted in accordance with the recommendations of our board of directors.

If any matters not described in this Proxy Statement are properly presented at the Annual Meeting, the proxy holders will use their own judgment to determine how to vote the shares. If the Annual Meeting is postponed or adjourned, the proxy holders can vote the shares on the new Annual Meeting date as well, unless you have properly revoked your proxy, as described in the question below titled “Can I change my vote or revoke my proxy after submitting a proxy?”

Can I change my vote or revoke my proxy after submitting a proxy?

Yes. If you are a stockholder of record, you can change your vote or revoke your proxy at any time before the final vote at the Annual Meeting in any one of the following ways:

●

Submit another properly completed proxy card with a later date;

●

Grant a subsequent proxy by telephone or through the internet;

●

Send a timely written notice that you are revoking your proxy to our Secretary via email at secretary@loargroup.com; or

●

Attend the Annual Meeting and vote online during the meeting. Attending the Annual Meeting will not, by itself, change your vote or revoke your proxy. Even if you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, we recommend that you also submit your proxy or voting instructions or vote in advance of the Annual Meeting by telephone or through the internet so that your vote will be counted if you later decide not to attend the Annual Meeting.

If you are a beneficial owner and your shares are held in “street name” on your behalf by a brokerage firm, bank, or other nominee, you should follow the instructions provided by that nominee.

How can I find out the results of the voting at the Annual Meeting?

We expect that preliminary voting results will be announced at the Annual Meeting. In addition, final voting results will be published in a Current Report on Form 8-K that we expect to file with the SEC within four business days after the Annual Meeting. If final voting results are not available to us in time to file a Current Report on Form 8-K within four business days after the Annual Meeting, we intend to file a Current Report on Form 8-K with the SEC to publish the preliminary results within four business days after the Annual Meeting and, within four business days after the final results are known to us, file an amendment to the Current Report on Form 8-K with the SEC to publish the final results.

Who is paying for this proxy solicitation?

We are paying for the cost of soliciting proxies. In addition to these proxy materials, our directors and employees may also solicit proxies in person, by telephone, or by other means of communication. Directors and employees will not be paid any additional compensation for soliciting proxies. We may also reimburse brokerage firms, banks,

and other nominees for the cost of forwarding proxy materials to beneficial owners. If you choose to access the proxy materials and/or vote over the internet, you are responsible for any internet access charges you may incur.

When are stockholder proposals and director nominations due for next year’s annual meeting?

the Class I directors are Dirkson Charles, Anthony M. Carpenito, Taiwo Danmola and Paul S. Levy, whose terms will expire at the Annual Meeting;

●

the Class II directors are Raja Bobbili, Alison Bomberg and Margaret (Peg) McGetrick, whose terms will expire at the annual meeting of stockholders to be held in 2026; and

●

the Class III directors are Brett Milgrim, David Abrams and M. Chad Crow, whose terms will expire at the annual meeting of stockholders to be held in 2027.

Each director’s term will continue until the election and qualification of their successor, or their earlier death, resignation or removal.

Nominees

At the recommendation of our nominating and corporate governance committee, our board of directors has nominated Dirkson Charles, Anthony M. Carpenito, Taiwo Danmola and Paul S. Levy for re-election as Class I directors at the Annual Meeting. If re-elected, each of Mr. Charles, Mr. Carpenito, Mr. Danmola and Mr. Levy will serve as a Class I director until the annual meeting of stockholders to be held in 2028 and until their successor is elected and qualified, or until their earlier death, resignation or removal. Each of the nominees is a current Class I director and member of our board of directors. For information concerning the nominees, see the section titled “Information Regarding Director Nominees and Current Directors.”

Unless you direct otherwise through your proxy voting instructions, the persons named as proxies will vote all proxies received “FOR” the election of each nominee named above. If any nominee is unable or unwilling to serve as a director at the time of the Annual meeting, the persons named as proxies may vote for a substitute nominee proposed by our board of directors. Alternatively, the proxies may vote only for the remaining nominees, leaving a vacancy on our board of directors. Our board of directors may fill a vacancy at a later date or reduce the size of our board of directors. Our management has no reason to believe that any of the nominees will be unwilling or unable to serve if re-elected as a director.

Vote Required

Directors are elected by a plurality of the votes properly cast at the Annual Meeting. Accordingly, the three nominees receiving the highest number of “FOR” votes will be elected. If nominees are unopposed, election requires only a single “FOR” vote or more. Any shares voting “WITHHOLD” will have no effect on the outcome of the election of the nominees. Broker non-votes are not considered votes cast for the foregoing purpose and will have no effect on the election of the nominees.

OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE “FOR” THE ELECTION OF EACH OF DIRKSON CHARLES, ANTHONY M. CARPENITO, TAIWO DANMOLA AND PAUL S. LEVY AS A CLASS I DIRECTOR.

The standing committees of our Board consist of an Audit Committee, a Compensation Committee and a Nominating and Governance Committee. Our Board may also establish from time to time any other committees that it deems necessary or desirable.

The board of directors has extensive involvement in the oversight of risk management related to us and our business. Our chief executive officer and other executive officers will regularly report to the non-executive directors and the Audit Committee, the Compensation Committee and the Nominating and Governance Committee to ensure effective and efficient oversight of our activities and to assist in proper risk management and the ongoing evaluation of management controls.

Chad Crow and Margaret (Peg) McGetrick, each of whom qualifies as an independent director under the corporate governance standards of the NYSE and the independence requirements of Rule 10A-3 of the Exchange Act. Our Board has determined that each of Mr. Danmola, Mr. Crow and Ms. McGetrick qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert” as such term is defined in Item 407(d)(5) of Regulation S-K. The purpose of the Audit Committee is to prepare the audit committee report required by the SEC to be included in our proxy statement and to assist our Board in overseeing:

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

None of the members of our Compensation Committee has at any time been one of our executive officers or employees. None of our executive officers currently serves, or has served during the last completed fiscal year, on the Compensation Committee or board of directors of any other entity that has one or more executive officers serving as a member of our Board or Compensation Committee.

We have entered into certain indemnification agreements with our directors and are party to certain transactions with our stockholders described in “Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions—Indemnification of Officers and Directors,” “Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions—Registration Rights Agreement”

and respectively. In addition, certain of our stockholders are party to a voting agreement with respect to shares of our common stock described in “Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions—Voting Agreement.”

Director Independence

Pursuant to the corporate governance listing standards of the NYSE, a director employed by us cannot be deemed to be an “independent director.” Each other director will qualify as “independent” only if our Board affirmatively determines that he has no material relationship with us, either directly or as a partner, stockholder or officer of an organization that has a relationship with us. Ownership of a significant amount of our stock, by itself, does not constitute a material relationship.

Our Board has affirmatively determined that each of our directors, other than Mr. Charles and Mr. Milgrim, qualifies as “independent” in accordance with the rules. In making its independence determinations, our Board considered and reviewed all information known to it (including information identified through directors’ questionnaires).

Lead Independent Director

Our corporate governance guidelines provide that one of our independent directors will serve as the lead independent director at any time when an independent director is not serving as the chairperson of the Board. David Abrams serves as our lead independent director. As lead independent director, Mr. Abrams presides over periodic meetings of our independent directors; coordinates activities of the independent directors; collaborates with the Executive

Co-Chairmen

of the Board to establish meeting agendas, approve the quality, quantity, and timeliness of materials sent to the full Board; approves Board meeting schedules; reviews and recommends committee memberships for the Board; lead discussions on the performance of the Chief Executive Officer; calls for executive sessions of the Board and chairing those sessions; serves as chair of Board meetings if the Executive

Co-Chairmen

are unavailable; facilitates discussions among independent directors on key issues outside of full board meetings, including oversight of the Chief Executive Officer and management succession and planning; authorizes the engagement of outside counsel and other advisors to report directly to the Board; confers with Audit Committee members and approve any proposed related party transactions (excluding matters where the Lead Independent Director is the subject of the conflict); and performs such additional duties as our Board may otherwise determine and delegate.

Background and Experience of Directors; Board Diversity

When considering whether directors and nominees have the experience, qualifications, attributes, or skills, taken as a whole, to enable our Board to satisfy its oversight responsibilities effectively in light of our business and structure, the board of directors focused primarily on each person’s background and experience as reflected in the information discussed in each of the directors’ individual biographies set forth above. We believe that our directors provide an appropriate mix of experience and skills relevant to the size and nature of our business.

In evaluating director candidates, we consider, and will continue to consider in the future, factors including, personal and professional character, integrity, ethics and values, experience in corporate management, finance and other relevant industry experience, social policy concerns, judgment, potential conflicts of interest, including other commitments, practical and mature business judgment, and such factors as age, gender, race, orientation, experience, and any other relevant qualifications, attributes, or skills.

Meetings of the Board of Directors and Stockholders

Our business and affairs are managed by our management under the direction of our board of directors. Our board of directors meets periodically during the year to review significant developments affecting us and to act on matters requiring the approval of our board of directors. Our board of directors held four (4) meetings (including regularly scheduled and special meetings) during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024. For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, each director attended at least 75% of the aggregate of (i) the total number of meetings of our board of directors held during the period for which he or she had been a director and (ii) the total number of meetings held by all committees of our board of directors on which he or she served during the period that he or she served. We encourage our directors to attend our annual meetings of stockholders.

As required under applicable NYSE listing standards, our

non-management

directors also meet in regularly scheduled executive sessions at which only

non-management

directors are present. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, our

non-management

directors met in executive session four (4) times. David Abrams, our lead independent director, presided over these executive sessions.

Stockholder Recommendations for Nominations to the Board of Directors

Our nominating and corporate governance committee considers director candidates recommended by stockholders. A stockholder that wishes to recommend a candidate for election to our board of directors may send a letter directed to our Secretary at Loar Holdings Inc., 20 New King Street, White Plains, New York 10604, Attention: Secretary. The letter must include, among other things, the candidate’s name, business and residence addresses, biographical data, and the number of Loar shares held. Additional information regarding the process and required information to properly and timely submit stockholder nominations for candidates for membership on our board of directors is set forth in our Bylaws and corporate governance guidelines.

Stockholder Communications with the Board of Directors

Our board of directors provides to every stockholder the ability to communicate with our board of directors, as a whole, and with individual directors on our board of directors through an established process for stockholder communication. For a stockholder communication directed to our board of directors as a whole, stockholders may send such communication to the attention of our company’s Secretary via email to secretary@loargroup.com or via U.S. Mail or Expedited Delivery Service to Loar Holdings Inc., 20 New King Street, White Plains, New York 10604, Attn: Chairperson of the Board of Directors, c/o Secretary.

For a stockholder communication directed to an individual director in his or her capacity as a member of our board of directors, stockholders may send such communication to the attention of the individual director via email to secretary@loargroup.com or via U.S. Mail or Expedited Delivery Service to Loar Holdings Inc., 20 New King Street, White Plains, New York 10604, Attn: Name of Individual Director.

We will forward by U.S. Mail any such stockholder communication to each director to whom such communication is addressed and to the Chairperson of our board of directors in his or her capacity as a representative of our board of directors, at the address specified by each such director and the Chairperson of our board of directors. Our Chief Legal Officer will review these communications and reserves the right not to forward communications if they are deemed inappropriate, consist of individual grievances or other interests that are personal to the party submitting the communication and could not reasonably be construed to be of concern to stockholders or other constituencies of our company, or are deemed to be solicitations, advertisements, surveys, “junk” mail or mass mailings.

Corporate Governance Guidelines and Code of Conduct

Our board of directors has adopted corporate governance guidelines that address items such as the qualifications and responsibilities of our directors and director candidates and corporate governance policies and standards applicable to us in general. In addition, our board of directors has adopted a code of conduct that applies to all of our employees, directors, and officers, including our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, and other executive and senior financial officers.

We have adopted a Code of Conduct that applies to all of our directors, officers, and employees, including our chief executive officer and chief financial and accounting officer. Our Code of Conduct is available on our website. Our Code of Conduct is a “code of ethics,” as defined in Item 406(b) of Regulation

S-K.

We will make any legally required disclosures regarding amendments to, or waivers of, provisions of our code of ethics on our website.

The full text of our corporate governance guidelines and code of conduct is available on our website at https://ir.loargroup.com/corporate-governance/governance-documents under “Corporate Governance Guidelines” and “Code of Conduct,” respectively, and may also be obtained without charge by contacting our Secretary at Loar Holdings Inc., 20 New King Street, White Plains, New York 10604, Attention: Secretary. We intend to disclose any amendments to our code of conduct, or waivers of its requirements, on our website or in filings under the Exchange Act, as required by the applicable rules and exchange requirements. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, we have not granted any waivers from any provision of our code of conduct.

Prohibition on Hedging, Short Sales, and Pledging

Certain transactions in our securities (such as purchases and sales of publicly traded put and call options, and short sales) create a heightened compliance risk or could create the appearance of misalignment between management and stockholders. In addition, securities held in a margin account or pledged as collateral may be sold without consent if the owner fails to meet a margin call or defaults on the loan, thus creating the risk that a sale may occur at a time when an officer or director is aware of material,

non-public

information or otherwise is not permitted to trade in company securities. Our board of directors has adopted an insider trading policy that applies to all of our employees, directors, and officers. This policy prohibits the following transactions in our company securities: short sales, the purchase or sale of derivative securities or hedging transactions, the use of our company securities as collateral subject to margin calls, and the pledge of our company securities as collateral for loans.

Timing Policies and Practices Regarding Equity Awards

We do not grant equity awards in anticipation of the release of material nonpublic information, and we do not time the release of material nonpublic information based on the grant dates for equity awards or for the purpose of affecting the value of executive compensation. Furthermore, we do not take material nonpublic information into account when determining the timing and terms of such equity awards. In 2024, we did not grant any new equity awards to our named executive officers during any period beginning four business days before and ending one business day after the filing of any Company periodic report on Form 10-Q or Form

10-K,

or the filing or furnishing of any Company Form 8-K that disclosed any material

non

-public information.

Performance-Based Compensation Recovery Policy

Effective April 16, 2024, our board of directors adopted a compensation recovery (“clawback”) policy as required by Rule

10D-1

under the Exchange Act and the corresponding NYSE listing standards. The clawback policy generally provides, subject to certain exceptions, that if we are required to prepare a restatement of our financial statements, we will recover from our executive officers any incentive-based compensation that was erroneously awarded in excess of the amount that otherwise would have been awarded based on restated amounts in the restated financial statements. The recovery period is the three completed fiscal years immediately preceding the date that our board of directors concludes that we are required to restate our financial statements. Incentive-based compensation includes any compensation that is granted, earned, or vested based on the attainment of a financial reporting measure of the Company.

In addition, as a public company subject to Section 304 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, if we are required to restate our financial results due to our material noncompliance with any financial reporting requirements under the federal securities laws as a result of misconduct, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer may be legally required to reimburse us for any bonus or other incentive-based or equity-based compensation they receive.

Director Compensation

Each of our non-employee directors is eligible to receive compensation for his or her service on our Board consisting of annual cash retainers of $100,000, payable quarterly. Mr. Abrams, Mr. Bobbili, Mrs. Bomberg, Mr. Carpenito and Mr. Levy have waived and intend to waive any such cash retainers payable to them.

In connection with our initial public offering, we offered first time non-employee directors the opportunity to make a one-time election to participate in a stock purchase and matching grant program, which provides that if the non-employee director purchased shares of our common stock (the “Purchased Shares”) (the date of the first such purchase, the “Purchase Date”) as part of the directed share program in our initial public offering or, with respect to an individual who becomes a non-employee director after the closing of our initial public offering, at fair value within 30 days following the date the individual becomes a non-employee director, then the company issued pursuant to the 2024 Plan a matching grant of fully vested shares of our common stock (the “Matching Grant Shares”) equal to 25% of the aggregate fair value of the purchased shares, up to a maximum aggregate matching grant of $500,000 per director. For any non-employee director who elected to participate in this program, the Matching Grant Shares are restricted from sale pursuant to the terms of the 2024 Plan as follows: all Matching Grant Shares are restricted from sale prior to the third anniversary of such non-employee director’s Purchase Date, provided that such non-employee director may sell up to 50% of his or her Purchased Shares beginning the day after the first anniversary of his or her Purchase Date and ending on the third anniversary of his or her Purchase Date, after which all such restrictions will cease.

On April 24, 2024, we granted 17,857 Matching Grant Shares to each of Mr. Crow, Mr. Danmola and Ms. McGetrick, each of whom is a non-employee director of the Company who purchased shares of common stock under the directed share program of our initial public offering.

Our directors are reimbursed for travel, food, lodging and other expenses directly related to their activities as directors. Our directors are also entitled to the protection provided by the indemnification provisions in our bylaws. Our Board may revise the compensation arrangements for our directors from time to time.

Director Compensation Table

PROPOSAL TWO

Ratification of Appointment of Independent

Registered Public Accounting Firm

Our audit committee has appointed Ernst & Young LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025. Our board of directors is submitting the appointment of EY to our stockholders for ratification at the Annual Meeting. EY has served as our independent registered public accounting firm since 2013.

Although ratification of the appointment of EY by our stockholders is not required by our Bylaws or otherwise, our board of directors is submitting the appointment of EY to our stockholders for ratification as a matter of good corporate governance. In the event that the appointment of EY is not ratified by our stockholders, our audit committee will consider the outcome of the vote in determining whether or not to retain EY for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025. Even if the appointment is ratified by our stockholders, our audit committee, in its sole discretion, may appoint a different independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025 at any time if our audit committee believes that such a change would be in the best interests of Loar and its stockholders.

A representative of EY is expected to be present at the Annual Meeting and will have an opportunity to make a statement if he or she so chooses, and is also expected to be available to respond to appropriate questions from stockholders.

Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures

We have adopted a policy under which our audit committee must pre-approve all audit and permissible non-audit services to be provided by our independent registered public accounting firm. Our audit committee may pre-approve our independent registered public accounting firm to perform a specific project, set of services, or transaction for our company or certain categories of services for our company. As part of its review, our audit committee also considers whether the categories of pre-approved services are consistent with the SEC’s rules on auditor independence. Our audit committee has pre-approved all services provided by our independent registered public accounting firm since the pre-approval policy was adopted prior to our IPO.

Fees Paid to the Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The following table presents the fees billed by EY and its affiliates for professional services rendered with respect to the fiscal years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023.



	Fiscal Year Ended December 31,

	2024	2023

	(in thousands)

Audit Fees(1)	$1,827,600	$2,342,900

Audit-Related Fees(2)	$324,000	$526,500

Tax Fees(3)	$197,410	$259,100

All Other Fees	$0	$0

Total Fees	$2,349,010	$3,128,500

(1) “Audit Fees” consist of fees for professional services provided in connection with the audit of our annual financial statements, review of our quarterly financial statements, and statutory and regulatory filings or engagements. For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, this category also included fees for services provided in connection with our IPO.

(2) “Audit-Related Fees” consist of fees for due diligence in connection with acquisitions.

(3) “Tax Fees” consist of fees for professional services provided for tax advice and tax planning.

Vote Required

The affirmative “FOR” vote of a majority of the votes properly cast at the Annual Meeting is required to ratify the appointment of EY. Abstentions and broker non-votes, if any, will have no effect on the outcome of this proposal.

OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE “FOR” THE RATIFICATION OF THE APPOINTMENT OF ERNST & YOUNG LLP AS OUR INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDING DECEMBER 31, 2025.

Report of the Audit Committee

of the Board of Directors

The audit committee has reviewed and discussed the audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 with our management. The audit committee has also reviewed and discussed with Ernst & Young LLP, our independent registered public accounting firm, the matters required to be discussed by Auditing Standard No. 1301, Communications with Audit Committees, as adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (the “PCAOB”). The audit committee has also received the written disclosures and the letter from Ernst & Young LLP required by the applicable requirements of the PCAOB regarding the independent accountants’ communications with the audit committee concerning independence and has discussed with Ernst & Young LLP its independence. Based on the foregoing, the audit committee has recommended to our board of directors that the audited financial statements be included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 and be filed with the SEC.

Members of the Audit Committee:

Taiwo K. Danmola (Chair)

M. Chad Crow

Margaret McGetrick

The information contained in this report shall not be deemed to be “soliciting material,” “filed” with the SEC, subject to Regulations 14A or 14C of the Exchange Act, or subject to the liabilities of Section 18 of the Exchange Act. No portion of this report shall be deemed to be incorporated by reference into any filing of Loar under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act through any general statement incorporating by reference in its entirety this Proxy Statement in which this report appears, except to the extent that Loar specifically incorporates this report or a portion of it by reference.

PROPOSAL THREE

Amended and Restated Loar Holdings Inc.

2024 Equity Incentive Plan

In connection with the consummation of our initial public offering, our Board adopted, and our shareholders approved, our Loar Holdings Inc. 2024 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Existing Plan”), which provides that 9,000,000 shares are available for issuance with respect to awards granted under the Existing Plan. As of April 21, 2025, 8,946,429 shares of stock were available for issuance under the Existing Plan. The Compensation Committee, board of directors, and the Company’s management believe it is in the best interest of the Company and its shareholders to amend and restate the Existing Plan (as amended and restated, the “Plan”) primarily to remove the limitation contained in the Existing Plan as it relates to the group of employees eligible to receive grants under the Existing Plan during the five-year period commencing on our initial public offering. We are not asking our stockholders to increase the share reserve under the Existing Plan.

The modifications described above and the following description are summaries of the material features of the Plan but may not contain all the information you may wish to know. We encourage you to review the entire text of the Plan which is attached hereto as Appendix A. The Plan is not required to be qualified under Section 401 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (“the Code”) nor is it subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. The Compensation Committee has approved the Plan.

The Plan is our only current long-term incentive plan under which equity awards may be granted to our employees, non-employee directors and other service providers. In December 2024, we also made certain stock option grants under the inducement grant exemption under New York Stock Exchange Rules, with respect to an aggregate of 68,000 shares of our common stock.

Summary of the Amended and Restated Equity Incentive Plan

Share Reserve

As of April 21, 2025, an aggregate of 8,946,429 shares of our common stock are available for issuance under the Plan, which represents 9.56% of our shares outstanding as of this same date. Shares issued under the Plan may be authorized but unissued shares or treasury shares. If an award under the Plan expires, terminates, or is forfeited, settled in cash, or canceled without having been fully exercised, any unused shares subject to the award will be available for new grants under the Plan. If shares issuable upon exercise, vesting, or settlement of an award are surrendered or tendered to the Company in payment of the purchase or exercise price of an award or any taxes required to be withheld in respect of an award, in each case, in accordance with the terms of the Plan, such surrendered or tendered shares will be added back to the share reserve.

Awards granted under the Plan in substitution for any options or other stock or stock-based awards granted by an entity before the entity’s merger or consolidation with us or our acquisition of the entity’s property or stock will not reduce the shares available for grant under the Plan, but may count against the maximum number of shares that may be issued upon the exercise of incentive stock options. As of April 21, 2025, the closing price of a share of our common stock as reported on the New York Stock Exchange was $81.69 per share.

Administration

The Plan will be administered by our Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee has the authority to construe and interpret the Plan, grant awards and make all other determinations necessary or advisable for the administration of the plan. Awards under the Plan may be made subject to “performance conditions” and other terms.

Eligibility

Our employees, consultants, advisors and directors, and employees, consultants, advisors and directors of our affiliates, will be eligible to receive awards under the Plan. The Existing Plan provides that no awards may be made under the Existing Plan within five years of our initial public offering other than awards in connection with our initial public offering, awards to newly hired employees and awards to eligible non-employee directors. If Proposal Three is adopted, an employee will be eligible to receive a grant regardless of the date of hire, and employees will be eligible to receive supplemental grants at the discretion of the Compensation Committee (for example, if an employee is promoted and non-employee directors will continue to be eligible to receive awards, without regard to the five-year period contained in the Existing Plan). The Compensation Committee will determine who will receive awards, and the terms and conditions associated with such award subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan. As of April 21, 2025, we estimate that approximately 1,500 employees and 3 non-employee directors would be eligible to participate in the plan (as of such date, we estimate that no consultants or advisors would be eligible to participate in the plan).

Term

The Plan will terminate on April 16, 2034 unless it is terminated earlier by our Board.

Stock Options

Options granted under the Plan may be exercisable at such times and subject to such terms and conditions of the Plan and as the Compensation Committee determines. The maximum term of options granted under the Plan is the earlier of (i) 10 years from the grant date, (ii) 90 days after the date of termination of employment other than upon death, disability or cause, (iii) one year after the date of separation from service for death or disability, or (iv) upon termination for cause (except as otherwise determined by the Compensation Committee).

Stock Bonuses

Bonuses payable in fully vested shares of our common stock consist of matching share grants described under “Management—Director Compensation.”

Additional Provisions; Change in Control

Awards granted under the 2024 Plan may not be transferred in any manner other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, and all such rights will be exercisable, during the participant’s lifetime, only by the participant, except for certain non-statutory stock options that may be transferred to certain family members as the Compensation Committee determines. In the event of a change in control (as defined in the Plan), all outstanding stock options will become immediately exercisable with respect to all of the shares subject to such stock options. In the event of any change to our outstanding common stock or capital structure, such as a stock split, reverse stock split, recapitalization, reorganization, merger, consolidation, combination, division, exchange, spin off, stock dividend, or extraordinary cash or non-cash dividend or other relevant change in capitalization or any extraordinary cash or non-cash dividend, all awards will be equitably adjusted or substituted (which may include cash payments) to the extent necessary to preserve the economic intention of such awards. A committee or subcommittee appointed by the Board may establish a program under which dividend equivalent rights may be granted in conjunction with other awards, and it is intended that any such dividend equivalent rights would be either exempt from, or in compliance with, Section 409A.

Amendment and Termination

The Board may amend or terminate the Plan at any time, subject to stockholder approval to the extent required by applicable law. The Compensation Committee may amend any award, provided, however that no amendment will be effective unless it is approved by stockholders to the extent required by applicable law. No amendment or termination may substantially impair rights under any award without the consent of an affected participant.

Certain Federal Income Tax Consequences

The following is a summary of certain U.S. federal income tax consequences associated with stock options granted under the Plan. The summary does not purport to cover federal employment tax or other U.S. federal tax consequences that may be associated with the Plan, nor does it cover state, local or non-U.S. taxes, except as may be specifically noted.

Stock Options (other than ISOs). In general, a participant has no taxable income upon the grant of a stock option that is not intended to be an ISO (an “NSO”) but realizes income in connection with the exercise of the NSO in an amount equal to the excess (at the time of exercise) of the fair market value of the shares acquired upon exercise over the exercise price. A corresponding deduction is generally available to the Company. Upon a subsequent sale or exchange of the shares, any recognized gain or loss is treated as a capital gain or loss for which the company is not entitled to a deduction.

ISOs. In general, a participant realizes no taxable income upon the grant or exercise of an ISO. However, the exercise of an ISO may result in an alternative minimum tax liability to the participant. Generally, a disposition of shares acquired pursuant to an ISO within two years from the date of grant or within one year after exercise produces ordinary income to the participant (and generally a deduction to the company) equal to the value of the shares at the time of exercise less the exercise price. Any additional gain recognized in the disposition is treated as a capital gain for which the company is not entitled to a deduction. If the participant does not dispose of the shares until after the expiration of these one- and two-year holding periods, any gain or loss recognized upon a subsequent sale of shares acquired pursuant to an ISO is treated as a long-term capital gain or loss for which the company is not entitled to a deduction.

New Plan Benefits

The following table sets forth the awards that were granted to our named executive officers, the other executive officers, as a group, our non-employee directors, as a group, and all other employees, as a group, under the Existing Plan during the 2024 fiscal year. Our executive officers and employees only received stock options during the 2024 fiscal year and our non-employee directors received stock bonuses.

Employment, Severance and Change of Control Arrangements

Employment Agreements

In connection with our initial public offering, we entered into amended and restated employment agreements with each of our named executive officers, as well as Michael Manella, our Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary, each of which provided for a term beginning upon the closing of the initial public offering and continue until the agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms and conditions, and sets forth the initial annual base salary and performance bonus opportunities, among other terms and conditions. These agreements amended and restated similar employment agreements that Loar Group Inc. had entered into with each of our named executive officers, as well as Mr. Manella, effective as of October 2, 2017.

The amended and restated employment agreements provide that Mr. Charles, Mr. Milgrim, Mr. D’Alessandro and Mr. Manella be paid annual base salaries, which under the employment agreements in effect for 2024 were $950,000, $750,000, $471,870 and $423,360, respectively. In addition, each amended and restated employment agreement provides for an annual performance bonus opportunity, as more fully described below under the heading “—Non-Equity Incentive Compensation.”

Each of the amended and restated employment agreements provide that upon a termination of employment by mutual consent, death, by the Company with cause, by the executive without good reason, by the Company without cause, a resignation by the executive for good reason, or a termination of employment due to disability, each executive will be eligible to receive: (i) base salary earned but not yet paid, (ii) any performance bonus that was owed for a prior completed year of service, (iii) payment of accrued but unused vacation, (iv) reimbursement of business expenses incurred but not yet paid, and (v) other benefits vested and accrued at such termination. In the case of a termination of employment by the Company without cause, a resignation by the executive for good reason, or a termination of employment due to disability, in each case subject to the execution and delivery of a release of claims and the executive’s continued compliance with restrictive covenants (as described below), the executive will additionally be entitled to receive the following benefits: (a) continuation of base salary for 24 months commencing on the first payroll date following the date of release, subject to customary terms, (b) a pro-rata portion of any performance bonus that would have been owed to the executive, and (c) premiums for medical, prescription drug, dental and vision insurance coverage under COBRA in the event a post-separation plan is not agreed for either 18 months following the date of release or the until the executive ceases to be eligible under applicable law or plan terms, whichever occurs first.

Each of the amended and restated employment agreements provide that the executive is eligible to participate in our health and welfare benefit plans, including medical benefits and life insurance, on the same basis as other executives of the Company.

Each of the employment agreements currently in effect contains the following restrictive covenants: (i) non-competition for a period of 24 months following termination, (ii) non-solicitation of employees or customers for a period of 24 months following termination, and (iii) perpetual confidentiality. Each of the amended and restated employment agreements also has a release containing the same above restrictive covenants.

The foregoing descriptions of our amended and restated employment agreements is intended as a summary only and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the amended and restated employment agreements which are filed as exhibits to our 2024 Annual Report.

Non-Equity Incentive Compensation

For 2024, our named executive officers, as well as Mr. Manella, were eligible to receive an annual performance award. Performance was assessed against targets that were established and corresponding bonuses amounts outlined in the employment agreement. The performance target is based off of a budgeted value of “EBITDA,” defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and, for the avoidance of doubt, calculated net of all compensation or bonuses required to be paid under the employment agreement and any other employment agreement or bonus plan of the Company (the “Target”). The performance bonus is calculated based on a percentage of the “Target Bonus,” which is defined for Mr. Charles and Mr. Milgrim as 100% of base salary and Mr. D’Alessandro and Mr. Manella as 50% of base salary. The performance bonus would be achieved based upon the following scale: for EBITDA of less than 85% of the Target, no performance bonus; for EBITDA of 85% of the Target, a performance bonus equal to 50% of the Target Bonus; for EBITDA of 85% to 100% of the Target, a performance bonus equal to 50% to 100% of the Target Bonus on a straight line basis; for EBITDA of 100% of the Target, a performance bonus equal to 100% of the Target Bonus; for EBITDA of 100% to 110% of the Target, a performance bonus equal to 100% to 150% of the Target Bonus on a straight line basis; and for EBITDA of 110% or more of the Target, a performance bonus equal to 150% of the Target Bonus.

Equity Incentive Compensation

Upon the occurrence of our initial public offering, the members of LA 13, including each of our named executive officers and Mr. Manella, received shares of our common stock in accordance with the waterfall provisions of the limited liability company agreement of LA 13. Immediately following this distribution, LA 13 liquidated in accordance with applicable law. See “Certain Relationships and Related Person Transactions—LA 13 LLC Agreement” and “Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management.”

Long-Term Incentive Plan

In order to incentivize our employees following the completion of our initial public offering, our Board adopted the 2024 Plan for employees, consultants and/or directors on April 16, 2024. Our named executive officers are eligible to participate in the 2024 Plan. The 2024 Plan provides for the grant of options and stock bonuses, intended to align the interests of service providers, including our named executive officers, with those of our stockholders.

Summary of the Equity Incentive Plan

Our Board adopted, and our shareholders approved the 2024 Plan, pursuant to which employees, consultants and directors of our company and employees, consultants and directors of our affiliates performing services for us, including our executive officers, are eligible to receive awards. The 2024 Plan provides for the grant of stock options intended to align the interests of participants with those of our shareholders.

Share Reserve

An aggregate of 8,946,429 shares of our common stock are available for issuance under the 2024 Plan. Shares issued under the 2024 Plan may be authorized but unissued shares or treasury shares. If an award under the 2024 Plan expires, terminates, or is forfeited, settled in cash, or canceled without having been fully exercised, any unused shares subject to the award will be available for new grants under the 2024 Plan. If shares issuable upon exercise, vesting, or settlement of an award are surrendered or tendered to the Company in payment of the purchase or exercise price of an award or any taxes required to be withheld in respect of an award, in each case, in accordance with the terms of the 2024 Plan, such surrendered or tendered shares will be added back to the share reserve. Awards granted under the 2024 Plan in substitution for any options or other stock or stock-based awards granted by an entity before the entity’s merger or consolidation with us or our acquisition of the entity’s property or stock will not reduce the shares available for grant under the 2024 Plan, but may count against the maximum number of shares that may be issued upon the exercise of incentive stock options.

Administration

The 2024 Plan is being administered by our Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee has the authority to construe and interpret the 2024 Plan, grant awards and make all other determinations necessary or advisable for the administration of the plan. Awards under the 2024 Plan may be made subject to “performance conditions” and other terms.

Eligibility

Our employees, consultants and directors, and employees, consultants and directors of our affiliates, are eligible to receive awards under the 2024 Plan. The Compensation Committee will determine who will receive awards, and the terms and conditions associated with such award subject to the terms and conditions of the 2024 Plan.

Term

The 2024 Plan will terminate ten years from the date our Board approved the plan unless it is terminated earlier by our Board.

Stock Options

Options granted under the 2024 Plan may be exercisable at such times and subject to such terms and conditions of the 2024 Plan and as the Compensation Committee determines. The maximum term of options granted under the 2024 Plan is the earlier of (i) 10 years from the grant date, (ii) 90 days after the date of termination of employment other than upon death, disability or cause, (iii) one year after the date of separation from service for death or disability, or (iv) upon termination for cause.

Stock Bonuses

Bonuses payable in fully vested shares of our common stock consist of matching share grants described under “Director Compensation.”

Additional Provisions

In the event of a change in control (as defined in the 2024 Plan), all outstanding stock options will become immediately exercisable with respect to all of the shares subject to such stock options. In the event of any change to our outstanding common stock or capital structure, such as a stock split, reverse stock split, recapitalization, reorganization, merger, consolidation, combination, division, exchange, spin off, stock dividend, or extraordinary cash or non-cash dividend or other relevant change in capitalization or any extraordinary cash or non-cash dividend, all awards will be equitably adjusted or substituted (which may include cash payments) to the extent necessary to preserve the economic intention of such awards. A committee or subcommittee appointed by the Board may establish a program under which dividend equivalent rights may be granted in conjunction with other awards, and it is intended that any such dividend equivalent rights would be either exempt from, or in compliance with, Section 409A.

IPO Grants

In connection with our initial public offering, we granted an aggregate of 4,628,000 options to purchase shares of common stock to certain employees divided into five equal size tranches: Tranche A, Tranche B, Tranche C, Tranche D and Tranche E. Tranche A vests on the first anniversary of the closing of our initial public offering, which closed on April 29, 2024, with an exercise price set at the initial public offering price, which was $28.00 per share. Tranche B vests on the second anniversary of the closing of our initial public offering with an exercise price set at the product of 1.10 and the initial public offering price. Tranche C vests on the third anniversary of the closing of our initial public offering with an exercise price set at the product of 1.21 and the initial public offering price.

Tranche D vests on the fourth anniversary of the closing of our initial public offering with an exercise price set at the product of 1.33 and the initial public offering price. Tranche E vests on the fifth anniversary of the closing of our initial public offering, with an exercise price set at the product of 1.46 and the initial public offering price. The options will expire on the earlier of (i) ten years from the grant date or (ii) 90 days after termination of employment other than upon death, disability or cause.

Included in the 4,628,000 options we granted as described above, we granted 710,000, 710,000, 385,000 and 385,000 options to Mr. Charles, Mr. Milgrim, Mr. D’Alessandro and Mr. Manella, respectively. These options are subject to the same terms and conditions as set forth above. All awards granted are subject to the terms of the 2024 Plan and individual award agreements. Mr. Charles is our President, Chief Executive Officer, Executive Co-Chairman and Director; Mr. Milgrim is our Executive Co-Chairman and Director; Mr. D’Alessandro is our Treasurer and Chief Financial Officer; and Mr. Manella is our Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary.

Compensation Risk Assessment

We believe that although a portion of the compensation provided to our named executive officers is performance-based, our executive compensation program does not encourage excessive or unnecessary risk taking. This is primarily due to the fact that our compensation programs are designed to encourage our executive officers and other employees to remain focused on both short-term and long-term strategic goals. As a result, we do not believe that our compensation programs are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on us.

Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners

and Management

The following table sets forth the beneficial ownership of our common stock as of March 28, 2025, by the following individuals or groups:

●

each of our directors;

●

each of our named executive officers;

●

all of our directors and executive officers as a group; and

●

each person, or group of affiliated persons, who is known by us to beneficially own more than 5% of our common stock.

The percentage ownership information shown in the table is based upon 93,556,071 shares of common stock outstanding as of March 28, 2025. We have determined beneficial ownership in accordance with the rules of the SEC. These rules generally attribute beneficial ownership of securities to persons who possess sole or shared voting power or investment power with respect to those securities, or have the right to acquire such powers within 60 days. Under these rules, more than one person may be deemed beneficial owner of the same securities, and a person may be deemed to be a beneficial owner of securities as to which such person has no economic interest. In addition, the rules include shares of common stock issuable pursuant to the exercise of stock options or warrants that are either immediately exercisable or exercisable on or before June 20, 2025, which is 60 days after April 21, 2025. These shares are deemed to be outstanding and beneficially owned by the person holding those options or warrants for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of that person, but they are not treated as outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person. The information contained in the following table is not necessarily indicative of beneficial ownership for any other purpose, and the inclusion of any shares in the table does not constitute an admission of beneficial ownership of those shares. Unless otherwise indicated, the persons or entities identified in this table have sole voting and investment power with respect to all shares shown as beneficially owned by them, subject to applicable community property laws.

Except as otherwise noted below, the address for persons listed in the table is c/o Loar Holdings Inc., 20 New King Street, White Plains, NY 10604.

Certain Relationships and Related Person Transactions

The following includes a summary of transactions since January 1, 2022 and any currently proposed transactions to which we have been or are to be a party in which the amount involved exceeded or will exceed $120,000, and in which any of our directors, executive officers or, to our knowledge, beneficial owners of more than 5% of our capital stock or any member of the immediate family of any of the foregoing persons had or will have a direct or indirect material interest, other than equity and other compensation, arrangements of which are described under the sections titled “Executive Compensation” and “Director Compensation.”

Corporate Conversion

Prior to April 16, 2024, we operated as a Delaware limited liability company under the name Loar Holdings, LLC. On April 16, 2024, we converted to a Delaware corporation and changed our name to Loar Holdings Inc. In the conversion, all of our outstanding equity interests were converted into shares of common stock. The purpose of the Corporate Conversion was to reorganize our structure so that the entity that was offering our common stock to the public in our initial public offering was a corporation rather than a limited liability company. Accordingly, since the Corporate Conversion, all of our investors own common stock rather than equity interests in a limited liability company.

Registration Rights Agreement

In connection with our initial public offering, we entered into a registration rights agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) with Abrams Capital, GPV Loar LLC, Blackstone Credit, Dirkson Charles and Brett Milgrim (together, the “Demand Stockholders”), as well as Glenn D’Alessandro and Michael Manella (together with the Demand Stockholders, the “Piggyback Stockholders”).

Demand Registrations

Under the Registration Rights Agreement, the Demand Stockholders are able to require us to file a registration statement (a “Demand Registration”) under the Securities Act and we are required to notify holders of registrable securities that are party to the Registration Rights Agreement (the “Holders”) in the event of such request (a “Demand Registration Request”). The holders of a majority of registrable securities among all Demand Stockholders may each issue up to two Demand Registration Requests for long-form registrations on Form S-1 or any similar long-form registration statement so long as (i) the proposed maximum aggregate offering value of the registrable securities requested to be registered equals at least $50 million or (ii) all of the remaining registrable securities held by all Demand Stockholders are sold in such offering. Each of the Demand Stockholders may issue up to two Demand Registration Requests in any twelve month period for short-form registrations on Form S-3 or any similar short-form registration statement so long as (i) the proposed maximum aggregate offering value of the registrable securities requested to be registered equals at least $20 million or (ii) all of the remaining registrable securities held by any Demand Stockholders are sold in such offering. In addition, each of the Demand Stockholders may issue up to two requests in any twelve month period for take-down offerings (“Shelf Offering”) off of a shelf registration statement (“Take-down Request”) so long as (i) the proposed maximum aggregate offering value of the registrable securities requested to be included equals at least $20 million or (ii) all of the remaining registrable securities held by any Demand Stockholders are sold in such offering. All eligible holders are entitled to participate in any Demand Registration or Shelf Offering upon proper notice to us, and we are required to use our best efforts to effect such participation in accordance with the terms of the Demand Registration Request or Take-down Request, subject to the Additional Lock-up (as defined below) and certain rights we have to delay or postpone such registration.

Piggyback Registrations

Under the Registration Rights Agreement, if at any time we propose or are required to register any of our equity securities under the Securities Act (other than a Demand Registration or in connection with registration on Form S-4 or S-8 promulgated by the SEC or any successor or similar forms) (a “piggyback registration”), we will be required to notify each Piggyback Stockholder of its right to participate in such registration. We will use reasonable best efforts to cause all eligible securities requested to be included in the registration to be so included, subject to the Additional Lock-up. We have the right to withdraw or postpone a registration statement in which eligible holders have elected to exercise piggyback registration rights, and eligible holders are entitled to withdraw their registration requests prior to the execution of an underwriting agreement with respect to any such registration.

Additional Lock-up

All holders of registrable securities under the Registration Rights Agreement are subject to lock-up provisions under which they have agreed not to sell or otherwise transfer their shares for a period of 90 days following the date of the final prospectus for any other public offering. Mr. Charles and Mr. Milgrim are not permitted to sell or otherwise transfer the shares each of them held immediately following the closing of our initial public offering until and including September 30, 2027 (the “Additional Lock-up”), subject to limited waivers and exceptions, including (i) an exception for Mr. Charles to transfer up to $30 million of such shares held by him and (ii) an exception for Mr. Milgrim to transfer up to $30 million of such shares held by him. If the number of shares that Abrams Capital sells during the Additional Lock-up period as a percentage of the total number of shares held by Abrams Capital immediately following the closing of our initial public offering exceeds 50%, then an additional exception to the Additional Lock-up would apply permitting either Mr. Charles or Mr. Milgrim to initiate a sale of shares to sell up to a pro rata amount calculated on the basis of such percentage.

The Registration Rights Agreement also provides that we will pay certain expenses of the Holders relating to such registrations and indemnify them against certain liabilities which may arise under the Securities Act.

Mr. Charles is our President, Chief Executive Officer, Executive Co-Chairman and Director; Mr. Milgrim is our Executive Co-Chairman and Director; Mr. D’Alessandro is our Treasurer and Chief Financial Officer; and Mr. Manella is our Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary. Each of Abrams Capital, GPV Loar LLC, Blackstone Credit and Dirkson Charles is the beneficial owner of more than 5% of our capital stock. The foregoing description of the Registration Rights Agreement is intended as a summary only and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Registration Rights Agreement, which is filed as an exhibit to our 2024 Annual Report.

Voting Agreement

Abrams Capital, GPV Loar LLC, Dirkson Charles and Brett Milgrim have entered into a voting agreement (the “Voting Agreement”) pursuant to which (i) Abrams Capital, Dirkson Charles and Brett Milgrim agree to vote all of the shares of our common stock then owned by them and their controlled affiliates at any meeting at which Paul S. Levy, a designee of GPV Loar LLC, is standing for election as a director in favor of his election, (ii) GPV Loar LLC, Dirkson Charles and Brett Milgrim agree to vote all of the shares of our common stock then owned by them and their controlled affiliates at any meeting at which any person identified by Abrams Capital as an Abrams Capital designee is standing for election as a director in favor of the election of such Abrams designee, (iii) Abrams Capital, GPV Loar LLC and Brett Milgrim agree to vote all of the shares of our common stock then owned by them and their controlled affiliates at any meeting at which Dirkson Charles is standing for election as a director in favor of his election and (iv) Abrams Capital, GPV Loar LLC and Dirkson Charles agree to vote all of the shares of our common stock then owned by them and their controlled affiliates at any meeting at which Brett Milgrim is standing for election as a director in favor of his election. The Voting Agreement terminates automatically upon the earlier of (a) the 10th anniversary of its effective date and (b) the first date that the aggregate number of shares of our common stock beneficially owned by either Abrams Capital and its controlled affiliates or GPV Loar LLC and its controlled affiliates is equal to or less than 10%.

The foregoing description of the Voting Agreement is intended as a summary only and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Voting Agreement, which is filed as an exhibit to our 2024 Annual Report.

Indemnification of Officers and Directors

Our certificate of incorporation and bylaws provide that we will indemnify each of our directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law. In addition, we have entered into indemnification agreements with each of our directors and executive officers.

LA 13 LLC Agreement

The limited liability company agreement of LA 13 (the “LLC Agreement”) specified the rights and obligations of the members of LA 13 and the rights of the various classes of limited liability company interests therein. Limited liability company interests of LA 13 were held in the form of common units, incentive units, promote units and special promote units (with incentive units, promote units and special promote units being collectively referred to as “profits interests”). Pursuant to the LLC Agreement, no members had voting rights. Pursuant to the LLC Agreement, the business and affairs of LA 13 was managed by a board of directors comprised of seven (7) natural persons (each a “Manager” and collectively the “LA 13 Board”). Pursuant to the LLC Agreement, Dirkson Charles, our President, Chief Executive Officer and Executive Co-Chairman, and Brett Milgrim, our Executive Co-Chairman, were each entitled to be a Manager. Pursuant to the LLC Agreement, GPV Loar LLC had the right to appoint one (1) Manager to the LA 13 Board. Pursuant to the LLC Agreement, ACP-L Holdings, LLC, an affiliate of Abrams Capital Management, L.P., had the right to appoint the remaining four (4) Managers to the LA 13 Board.

Pursuant to the LLC Agreement, upon the occurrence of our initial public offering, the members of LA 13, including each of our listed executive officers, received shares of our common stock in accordance with the waterfall provisions of the LLC Agreement, which resulted in our listed executive officers owning the number of shares set forth in “Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management.” Immediately following this distribution, LA 13 was liquidated in accordance with applicable law.

Related Persons Transaction Policy

We have adopted formal written procedures for the review, approval or ratification of transactions with related persons, or the Related Persons Transaction Policy. The Related Persons Transaction Policy provides that the Audit Committee is charged with reviewing for approval or ratification all transactions with “related persons” (as defined in paragraph (a) of Item 404 of Regulation S-K) that are brought to the Audit Committee’s attention. This policy took effect upon the effectiveness of our certificate of incorporation on April 16, 2024, and as a result, certain of the transactions entered into prior to that date, including the transactions described under “Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions,” were not reviewed under the policy.

We also maintain certain compensation agreements and other arrangements with certain of our listed executive officers, which are described under “Executive Compensation.”

Delinquent Section 16(a) Reports

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires the Company’s officers and directors and persons who own more than 10% of a registered class of the Company’s equity securities (collectively, the “Reporting Persons”) to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the SEC. Based on the Company’s review of these reports filed electronically with the SEC and written representations received from Reporting Persons, we believe that all of our directors and officers complied with the reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act during 2024, except for one untimely report on Form 3 for Raja Bobbili, Director, and one untimely report on Form 3 for Alison Bomberg, Director, in each case, which was filed one day late on April 25, 2024 due to an unanticipated delay in obtaining the reporting persons’ EDGAR filing codes.

Householding of Proxy Materials

We are providing our Notice of Annual Meeting of Shareholders, Proxy Statement and 2024 Annual Report by first class mail. For those shareholders who request paper copies of the foregoing documents and share the same last name and address, they may receive one copy of the 2024 Annual Report and Proxy Statement, unless we receive contrary instructions from any shareholder at that address. This practice, known as “householding,” is designed to reduce the volume of duplicate information and reduce printing and postage costs. Each street name shareholder receiving this Proxy Statement by mail will continue to receive a separate voting instruction form.

(k) to modify, extend, or renew an Award, subject to Section 6.4(l) and Article XIII.

3.3 Guidelines.

The Committee may correct any defect, supply any omission, or reconcile any inconsistency in the Plan or in any agreement relating thereto in the manner and to the extent it deems necessary to effectuate the purpose and intent of the Plan. The Committee may adopt special terms and conditions for Persons who are residing in, or employed in, or subject to the taxes of, any domestic or foreign jurisdictions to comply with Applicable Law or to qualify for preferred tax treatment of such domestic of foreign jurisdictions. Notwithstanding the foregoing terms and conditions of this Section 3.3, no action of the Committee under this Section 3.3 may substantially impair the rights of any Participant without the Participant’s consent. To the extent applicable, the Plan is intended to comply with the applicable requirements of Rule 16b-3, and the Plan will be limited, construed, and interpreted in a manner so as to comply therewith.

3.4 Sole Discretion; Decisions Final. Any decision, interpretation, or other action made or taken in good faith by or at the direction of the Company, the Board, or the Committee (or any of their members) arising out of or in connection with the Plan shall be within the sole and absolute discretion of all and each of them, as the case may be, and shall be final, binding, and conclusive on the Company and all employees and Participants and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors, and assigns and all other Persons having an interest in the Plan.

(a) The Committee may designate employees of the Company and professional advisors to assist the Committee in the administration of the Plan and may grant authority to officers to grant Awards and execute agreements and other documents on behalf of the Committee, in each case to the extent permitted by Applicable Law. In the event of any designation of authority hereunder, subject to Applicable Law and any terms and conditions imposed by the Committee in connection with such designation, such designee or designees will have the power and authority to take such actions, exercise such powers, and make such determinations that are otherwise specifically designated to the Committee hereunder.

Expenses incurred by the Committee or the Board in the engagement of any such counsel, consultant, or agent will be paid by the Company. The Committee, its members, and any Person designated under Section 3.5(a) will not be liable for any action or determination made in good faith with respect to the Plan.

To the maximum extent permitted by Applicable Law and the Certificate of Incorporation and By-Laws of the Company and to the extent not covered by insurance directly insuring such Person, each officer and employee of the Company and each Affiliate and member or former member of the Committee and the Board will be indemnified and held harmless by the Company against all costs and expenses and liabilities, and advanced amounts necessary to pay the foregoing at the earliest time and to the fullest extent permitted, arising out of any act or omission to act in connection with the administration of the Plan, except to the extent arising out of such officer’s, employee’s, member’s, or former member’s own fraud or bad faith. Such indemnification will be in addition to any right of indemnification the employees, officers, directors, or members or former officers, directors, or members may have under Applicable Law or under the Certificate of Incorporation or By-Laws of the Company or an Affiliate. Notwithstanding any other term or condition of the Plan, this indemnification will not apply to the actions or determinations made by an individual with regard to Awards granted to himself or herself.

ARTICLE IV

SHARE LIMITATION

4.1 Shares. Share Limits and Counting. The maximum number of Shares available for issuance under the Plan may not exceed (i) 9,000,000 Shares (such amount, subject to any increase or decrease under this Section 4.1 or Section 4.2, the “Share Reserve”). Any Shares granted in connection with Stock Options shall be counted against this limit as one (1) Share for every one (1) Stock Option awarded. The Share Reserve may consist of authorized and unissued Shares and Shares held in or acquired for the treasury of the Company. The maximum number of Shares with respect to which ISOs may be granted is 9,000,000 Shares. If any Stock Option expires, terminates, or is canceled for any reason without having been exercised in full, the number of Shares underlying such Award will be added back to the Share Reserve. Any Award settled in cash will not count against the Share Reserve. If Shares issuable upon exercise, vesting, or settlement of an Award are surrendered or tendered to the Company in payment of the purchase or exercise price of an Award or any taxes required to be withheld in respect of an Award, in each case, in accordance with the terms of the Plan, such surrendered or tendered Shares will be added back to the Share Reserve. Awards may be granted in assumption of, or in substitution for, outstanding awards previously granted by an entity acquired by the Company or with which the Company combines (“Substitute Awards”). Substitute Awards will not count against the Share Reserve; provided, that Substitute Awards issued in connection with the assumption of, or in substitution for, outstanding Stock Options intended to qualify as ISOs will count against the ISO limit above. Subject to applicable stock exchange requirements, available shares under a shareholder-approved plan of an entity acquired by the Company or with which the Company combines (as appropriately adjusted to reflect such acquisition or transaction) may be used for Awards and will not count against the Share Reserve.

4.2 Changes.

(a) The existence of the Plan and any Awards will not affect in any way the right or power of the Board, the Committee, or the Stockholders to make or authorize (i) any adjustment, recapitalization, reorganization, or other change in the Company’s capital structure or its business, (ii) any merger or consolidation of the Company or any Affiliate, (iii) any issuance of bonds, debentures, preferred, or prior preference stock ahead of or affecting the Common Stock, (iv) the dissolution or liquidation of the Company or any Affiliate, (v) any sale or transfer of all or part of the assets or business of the Company or any Affiliate, or (vi) any other corporate act or proceeding.

(b) Subject to Section 8.1:

(i) In the event of any change in the outstanding Common Stock or in the capital structure of the Company by reason of any stock split, reverse stock split, recapitalization, reorganization, merger, consolidation, combination, division, exchange, spin off, stock dividend, or extraordinary cash or non-cash dividend, or other relevant change in capitalization or any extraordinary cash or non-cash dividend, Awards will be equitably adjusted or substituted (which may include cash payments) to the extent necessary to preserve the economic intent of such Awards.

A-7

(ii) Fractional Shares resulting from any adjustment in Awards under this Section 4.2(b) will be aggregated until, and eliminated at, the time of exercise or payment by rounding down to the nearest whole number. No cash settlements will be required with respect to fractional Shares eliminated by rounding. Notice of any adjustment will be given by the Committee to each Participant whose Award has been adjusted and such adjustment (whether or not such notice is given) will be effective and binding for all purposes of the Plan.

(iii) The Committee may establish a program under which dividend equivalent rights may be granted in conjunction with other Awards, and it is intended that any such dividend equivalent rights would be either exempt from, or in compliance with, Section 409A. 4.3 Minimum Purchase Price. Notwithstanding any other term or condition of the Plan, if authorized but previously unissued Shares are issued under the Plan, such Shares may not be issued for a consideration that is less than as permitted under Applicable Law.

ARTICLE V

ELIGIBILITY

5.1 General Eligibility. All current and prospective Eligible Individuals are eligible to be granted Awards. Eligibility for the grant of Awards and actual participation in the Plan will be determined by the Committee.

5.2 ISOs. Notwithstanding Section 5.1, only Eligible Employees of the Company, its Subsidiaries, and any Parent are eligible to be granted ISOs.

5.3 General Requirement. The vesting and exercise of Awards granted to a prospective Eligible Individual must be conditioned upon such individual actually becoming an Eligible Employee, Consultant, or Non-Employee Director, respectively.

ARTICLE VI

STOCK OPTIONS

6.1 Stock Options. Stock Options may be granted alone or in addition to other Awards granted under the Plan. Each Stock Option will be of one of two types: (a) an ISO or (b) a NSO.

6.2 Grants. The Committee will have the authority to grant to any Eligible Employee one or more ISOs, NSOs, or both types of Stock Options; provided, however, that ISOs may only be granted to an Eligible Employee who is an employee of the Company, its Subsidiaries or any Parent. The Committee will have the authority to grant any Consultant or Non-Employee Director one or more NSOs. To the extent that any Stock Option does not qualify as an ISO (whether because of its provisions or the time or manner of its exercise or otherwise), such Stock Option or the portion thereof that does not so qualify will constitute a separate NSO.

6.3 ISOs. Notwithstanding any other term or condition of the Plan, no term or condition of the Plan relating to ISOs will be interpreted, amended, or altered, nor will any discretion or authority granted under the Plan be so exercised, so as to disqualify the Plan under Code Section 422, or, without the consent of the Participants affected, to disqualify any ISO under Code Section 422.

6.4 Terms and Conditions of Stock Options. Stock Options will be subject to terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the Plan, determined by the Committee, and the following:

(a) Exercise Price. The exercise price per Share subject to a Stock Option will be determined by the Committee at the time of grant, provided that the per Share exercise price of a Stock Option may not be less than 100% (or, in the case of an ISO granted to a Ten Percent Stockholder, 110%) of the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock at the grant date.

A-8

(b) Stock Option Term. The term of each Stock Option will be fixed by the Committee, provided that no Stock Option may be exercisable more than 10 years after the date the Stock Option is granted; and provided further that the term of an ISO granted to a Ten Percent Stockholder may not exceed five years.

(c) Exercisability. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee in accordance with this Section 6.4, Stock Options granted under the Plan will be exercisable at the time or times and subject to the terms and conditions determined by the Committee at the time of grant. If the Committee provides that any Stock Option is exercisable subject to certain terms and conditions, the Committee may waive those terms and conditions on the exercisability at any time at or after the time of grant in whole or in part.

(d) Method of Exercise. Subject to whatever installment exercise and waiting period terms and conditions that may apply under Section 6.4(c), to the extent vested, Stock Options may be exercised in whole or in part at any time during the Stock Option term by giving written notice of exercise to the Company specifying the number of Shares to be purchased. Such notice must be accompanied by payment in full of the exercise price as follows: (i) in cash or by check, bank draft, or money order payable to the order of the Company; (ii) solely to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, if the Common Stock is listed on a national stock exchange, and the Committee authorizes, through a procedure whereby the Participant delivers irrevocable instructions to a broker reasonably acceptable to the Committee to deliver promptly to the Company an amount equal to the exercise price; (iii) to the extent the Committee authorizes, having the Company withhold Shares issuable upon exercise of the Stock Option, or by payment in full or in part in the form of Shares owned by the Participant, based on the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the payment date; (iv) by means of consideration received under any cashless exercise procedure approved by the Committee (including the withholding of Shares otherwise issuable upon exercise); (v) on such other terms and conditions that may be acceptable to the Committee; or (vi) any combination of the foregoing. No Shares will be issued under the Plan until payment for those Shares has been made or provided for in accordance with the Plan.

(e) Non-Transferability of Stock Options. No Stock Option will be Transferable by the Participant other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, and all Stock Options will be exercisable, during the Participant’s lifetime, only by the Participant, except that the Committee may determine, in its sole discretion, at the time of grant or thereafter that a NSO that is otherwise not Transferable under this Section 6.4(e) is Transferable to a Family Member in whole or in part on terms and conditions that are specified by the Committee. A NSO that is Transferred to a Family Member under the preceding sentence (i) may not be subsequently Transferred other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution and (ii) remains subject to the Plan and the applicable Award Agreement. Any Shares acquired upon the exercise of a NSO by a permissible transferee of a NSO or a permissible transferee under a Transfer after the exercise of the NSO will be subject to the Plan and the applicable Award Agreement.

(f) Separation from Service by Death or Disability. Unless otherwise provided in the applicable Award Agreement, or otherwise determined by the Committee at the time of grant, or if no rights of the Participant are reduced, thereafter, if a Participant’s Separation from Service is by reason of death or Disability, all Stock Options that are held by such Participant that are vested and exercisable at the time of the Participant’s Separation from Service may be exercised by the Participant (or in the case of the Participant’s death, by the legal representative of the Participant’s estate) at any time within a period of one year from the date of such Separation from Service, but in no event beyond the expiration of the stated term of such Stock Options; provided, however, that, in the event of a Participant’s Separation from Service by reason of Disability, if the Participant dies within such exercise period, all unexercised Stock Options held by such Participant will thereafter be exercisable, to the extent to which they were exercisable at the time of death, for a period of one year from the date of such death, but in no event beyond the expiration of the stated term of such Stock Options.

(g) Involuntary Separation from Service without Cause. Unless otherwise provided in the applicable Award Agreement, or otherwise determined by the Committee at the time of grant, or if no rights of the Participant are reduced, thereafter, if a Participant’s Separation from Service is initiated by the Company without Cause, all Stock Options that are held by such Participant that are vested and exercisable at the time of the Participant’s Separation

A-9

from Service may be exercised by the Participant at any time within a period of 90 days after the date of such Separation from Service, but in no event beyond the expiration of the stated term of such Stock Options.

(h) Voluntary Resignation. Unless otherwise provided in the applicable Award Agreement, or otherwise determined by the Committee at the time of grant, or if no rights of the Participant are reduced, thereafter, if a Participant’s Separation from Service is voluntary, all Stock Options that are held by such Participant that are vested and exercisable at the time of the Participant’s Separation from Service may be exercised by the Participant at any time within a period of 90 days from the date of such Separation from Service, but in no event beyond the expiration of the stated term of such Stock Options.

(i) Separation from Service for Cause. Unless otherwise provided in the applicable Award Agreement, or otherwise determined by the Committee at the time of grant, or if no rights of the Participant are reduced, thereafter, if a Participant’s Separation from Service is for Cause, all Stock Options, whether vested or not vested, that are held by such Participant will terminate and expire as of the date of such Separation from Service.

(j) Unvested Stock Options. Unless otherwise provided in the applicable Award Agreement, or otherwise determined by the Committee at the time of grant, or if no rights of the Participant are reduced, thereafter, Stock Options that are not vested as of the date of a Participant’s Separation from Service for any reason will terminate and expire as of the date of such Separation from Service.

(k) ISO Terms and Conditions. To the extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value (determined as of the time of grant) of the Common Stock with respect to which ISOs are exercisable for the first time by an Eligible Employee during any calendar year under the Plan or any other stock option plan of the Company, any Subsidiary, or any Parent exceeds $100,000, such Stock Options will be treated as NSOs. In addition, if an Eligible Employee does not remain employed by the Company, any Subsidiary, or any Parent at all times from the time an ISO is granted until 3 months before the date of exercise thereof (or such other period as required by Applicable Law), such Stock Option will be treated as a NSO. Should any term or condition of the Plan not be necessary in order for the Stock Options to qualify as ISOs, or should any additional terms and conditions be required, the Committee may amend the Plan accordingly.

(l) Form, Modification, Extension and Renewal of Stock Options. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, Stock Options will be evidenced by such form of agreement or grant as is approved by the Committee, and the Committee may (i) modify, extend, or renew outstanding Stock Options (provided that the rights of a Participant are not reduced without such Participant’s consent; and provided, further, that such action does not subject the Stock Options to Section 409A without the consent of the Participant), and (ii) accept the surrender of outstanding Stock Options (to the extent not theretofore exercised) and authorize the granting of new Stock Options in substitution therefor (to the extent not theretofore exercised). Notwithstanding any other term or condition of the Plan, except in connection with a corporate transaction involving the Company in accordance with Section 4.2, the repricing of Options is prohibited without prior approval of the Stockholders. For this purpose, a “repricing” means any of the following (or any other action that has the same effect as any of the following): (y) any action that is treated as a “repricing” under GAAP and (z) repurchasing for cash or canceling an Option at a time when its exercise price is greater than the Fair Market Value of the underlying Shares in exchange for another Award. A cancellation and exchange under clause (z) would be considered a “repricing” regardless of whether it is treated as a “repricing” under GAAP and regardless of whether it is voluntary on the part of the Participant.

(m) Automatic Exercise. The Committee may include a term or condition in an Award Agreement providing for the automatic exercise of a NSO on a cashless basis on the last day of the term of such Stock Option if the Participant has failed to exercise the NSO as of such date, with respect to which the Fair Market Value of the Shares underlying the NSO exceeds the exercise price of such NSO on the date of expiration of such Stock Option, subject to Section 10.5. Stock Options may contain such other provisions, which shall not be inconsistent with any of the terms of the Plan, as the Committee shall deem appropriate.

ARTICLE VII

DIRECTOR STOCK PROGRAM

7.1 Director Stock Program. The Board may, in its sole discretion, permit any individual who first becomes a Non-Employee Director following the Effective Date or any Eligible Director (a “Qualifying Director”) to make a one-time election to participate in a stock purchase and matching grant program in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in this Article VII (the “Director Stock Program”).

7.2 Share Grant. The Director Stock Program will provide that if the Qualifying Director purchases shares of Common Stock (the “Purchased Shares”) on the New York Stock Exchange (or other applicable market) (the date of the first such purchase, the “Purchase Date”) as part of the directed share program established in connection with the initial public offering of the Company or, with respect to an individual who became a Qualifying Director after the closing of the initial public offering of the Company, within thirty (30) days following the date on which the Qualifying Director first becomes a Non-Employee Director for a purchase price equal to the aggregate Fair Market Value of such shares of Common Stock on the date of purchase, then the Qualifying Director will receive a grant (the “Matching Grant”) of fully vested Shares under the Plan (the “Matching Grant Shares”) with an aggregate Fair Market Value calculated as of the Purchase Date equal to twenty-five percent (25%) of the lesser of (i) the aggregate Fair Market Value of the Purchased Shares on the Purchase Date or (ii) $500,000, provided that no fractional Shares shall be issued pursuant to this Article VII. Matching Grant Shares shall be Awards granted under the Plan.

7.3 Transfer Restrictions. As a condition to any Matching Grant, a Qualifying Director hereby irrevocably agrees not to sell, contract to sell, grant any option to purchase, transfer the economic risk of ownership in, make any short sale of, pledge or otherwise transfer or dispose of, any interest in any Purchased Shares or any Matching Grant Shares or any securities convertible into, derivative of, or exchangeable or exercisable for, or any other rights to purchase or acquire any Purchased Shares or any Matching Grant Shares during such period of time beginning after the Purchase Date and ending on and including the third anniversary of the Qualifying Director’s Purchase Date; provided, that the Qualifying Director may sell up to 50% of his or her Purchased Shares beginning the day after the first anniversary of his or her Purchase Date and ending on and including the third anniversary of his or her Purchase Date, after which all such restrictions will cease. The Company may impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to Purchased Shares and Matching Grant Shares until the end of such restricted period.

ARTICLE VIII

8.1 Change in Control. “Change in Control” means an event or occurrence set forth in any one or more of subsections (a) through (d) below (including an event or occurrence that constitutes a Change in Control under one of such subsections but is specifically exempted from another such subsection) that is (A) a change in the ownership of the Company (as defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(5)(v)), (B) a change in effective control of the Company (as defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(5)(vi)), or (C) a change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets of the Company (as defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(5)(vii)):

(a) the acquisition by an individual, entity or group (within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) or 14(d)(2) of the Exchange Act) (a “Change in Control Person”) of beneficial ownership of any capital stock of the Company if, after such acquisition, such Change in Control Person beneficially owns (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act) 50% or more of either (x) the then outstanding shares of common stock of the Company (the “Outstanding Company Common Stock”) or (y) the combined voting power of the then outstanding securities of the Company entitled to vote generally in the election of directors (the “Outstanding Company Voting Securities”); provided, however, that for purposes of this subsection (i), the following acquisitions shall not constitute a Change in Control: (A) any acquisition directly from the Company (excluding an acquisition pursuant to the exercise, conversion or exchange of any security exercisable for, convertible into or exchangeable for common stock or voting securities of the Company, unless the Change in Control Person exercising, converting or exchanging such security acquired such security directly from the Company or an underwriter or agent of the Company), (B) any acquisition by any corporation pursuant to a transaction which complies with clauses (A) and

A-11

(B) of subsection (iii) of this definition or (C) any acquisition by any individual, entity or group that holds securities of the Company or one of its Affiliates prior to the initial public offering of the Company’s common stock; or

(b) such time as the Continuing Directors (as defined below) do not constitute a majority of the Board (or, if applicable, the Board of Directors of a successor corporation to the Company), where the term “Continuing Director” means at any date a member of the Board (A) who was a member of the Board on the date of the execution of this Agreement or (B) who was nominated or elected subsequent to such date by at least a majority of the directors who were Continuing Directors at the time of such nomination or election or whose election to the Board was recommended or endorsed by at least a majority of the directors who were Continuing Directors at the time of such nomination or election; or

(c) the consummation of a merger, consolidation; organization, recapitalization or statutory share exchange involving the Company or a sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company in one or a series of transactions (a “Business Combination”), unless, immediately following such Business Combination, each of the following two conditions is satisfied: (A) all or substantially all of the individuals and entities who were the beneficial owners of the Outstanding Company Common Stock and Outstanding Company Voting Securities immediately prior to such Business Combination beneficially own, directly or indirectly, more than 50% of the then outstanding shares of common stock and the combined voting power of the then outstanding securities entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, respectively, of the resulting or acquiring corporation in such Business Combination (which shall include, without limitation, a corporation which as a result of such transaction owns the Company or substantially all of the Company’s assets either directly or through one or more subsidiaries) (such resulting or acquiring corporation is referred to herein as the “Acquiring Corporation”) in substantially the same proportions as their ownership, immediately prior to such Business Combination, of the Outstanding Company Common Stock and Outstanding Company Voting Securities, respectively; and (B) no Change in Control Person (excluding any employee benefit plan (or related trust) maintained or sponsored by the Company or by the Acquiring Corporation) beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, 50% or more of the then outstanding shares of common stock of the Acquiring Corporation, or of the combined voting power of the then outstanding securities of such corporation entitled to vote generally in the election of directors (except to the extent that such ownership existed prior to the Business Combination); or

(d) the liquidation or dissolution of the Company.

Notwithstanding the foregoing terms and conditions of this definition, with respect to any Award that is characterized as “nonqualified deferred compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A, an event will not be considered to be a Change in Control under the Plan for purposes of payment of such Award unless such event is also a “change in control event” within the meaning of Section 409A.

8.2 Treatment Following a Change in Control. In the event of a Change in Control, all outstanding Stock Options shall become immediately exercisable with respect to 100% of the shares subject to such Stock Options. The obligations of the Company under the Plan shall be binding upon any successor corporation or organization resulting from the merger, consolidation or other reorganization of the Company, or upon any successor corporation or organization succeeding to all or substantially all of the assets and business of the Company and its Affiliates, taken as a whole.

ARTICLE IX

AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION

9.1 Amendment and Termination of Plan. Subject to Section 9.3, the Board may amend or terminate the Plan at any time; provided, however, that no amendment will be effective unless approved by the Stockholders to the extent Stockholder approval is necessary to satisfy any Applicable Laws.

A-12

9.2 Amendment of Awards. Subject to Section 9.3, the Committee may amend any Award at any time; provided, however, that no amendment will be effective unless approved by the Stockholders to the extent Stockholder approval is necessary to satisfy any Applicable Laws.

9.3 No Impairment of Rights. Rights under any Award granted before amendment or termination of the Plan or amendment of an Award may not be substantially impaired by any such amendment or termination unless the Participant consents in writing.

ARTICLE X

GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS

10.1 Legend. The Committee may require each person receiving Shares under the Plan to represent to and agree with the Company in writing that the Participant is acquiring the Shares without a view to distribution thereof. In addition to any legend required by the Plan, the certificates for Shares issued under the Plan may include any legend that the Committee deems appropriate to reflect any restrictions on Transfer. All certificates for Shares delivered under the Plan will be subject to such stop transfer orders and other restrictions as the Committee may deem advisable under Applicable Law, and the Committee may cause a legend or legends to be put on any such certificates to make appropriate reference to such restrictions.

10.2 Book Entry. Notwithstanding any other term or condition of the Plan, the Company may elect to satisfy any requirement under the Plan for the delivery of Share certificates through the use of another system, such as book entry.

10.3 Other Plans. Nothing contained in the Plan prevents the Board from adopting other or additional compensation arrangements, subject to Stockholder approval if such approval is required, and such arrangements may be either generally applicable or applicable only in specific cases.

10.4 No Right to Employment/Consultancy/Directorship. Neither the Plan nor the grant of any Award gives any Person any right with respect to continuance of employment, consultancy, or directorship by the Company or any Affiliate, nor does the Plan or the grant of any Award cause any limitation in any way on the right of the Company or any Affiliate by which an employee is employed or a Consultant or Non-Employee Director is retained to terminate such employment, consultancy, or directorship at any time.

10.5 Withholding for Taxes. The Company or an Affiliate, as the case may be, has the right to deduct from payments of any kind otherwise due to a Participant any federal, state, or local taxes of any kind required by Applicable Law to be withheld (a) with respect to the vesting of or other lapse of restrictions applicable to an Award, (b) upon the issuance of any Shares upon the exercise of an Option, or (c) otherwise due in connection with an Award. At the time the tax obligation becomes due, the Participant must pay to the Company or the Affiliate, as the case may be, any amount that the Company or Affiliate determines to be necessary to satisfy the tax obligation. The Company or the Affiliate, as the case may be, may require or permit the Participant to satisfy the tax obligation, in whole or in part, (i) by causing the Company or Affiliate to withhold up to the maximum required number of Shares otherwise issuable to the Participant as may be necessary to satisfy such tax obligation or (ii) by delivering to the Company or Affiliate Shares already owned by the Participant. The Shares so delivered or withheld must have an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the tax obligation. The Fair Market Value of the Shares used to satisfy the tax obligation will be determined by the Company or the Affiliate as of the date that the amount of tax to be withheld is to be determined. To the extent applicable, a Participant may satisfy his or her tax obligation only with Shares that are not subject to any repurchase, forfeiture, unfulfilled vesting, or other similar requirements. Any fraction of a Share required to satisfy tax obligations will be disregarded and the amount due must be paid instead in cash by the Participant.

10.6 No Assignment of Benefits. No Award or other benefit payable under the Plan may, except as otherwise specifically provided by Applicable Law or permitted by the Committee, be Transferable in any manner, and any attempt to Transfer any such benefit will be void, and any such benefit will not in any manner be liable for or

A-13

subject to the debts, contracts, liabilities, engagements, or torts of any Person who will be entitled to such benefit, nor will it be subject to attachment or legal process for or against such Person.

10.7 Listing and Other Terms and Conditions.

(a) Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, as long as the Common Stock is listed on a national stock exchange or system sponsored by a national securities association, the issuance of Shares under an Award will be conditioned upon such Shares being listed on such exchange or system. The Company will have no obligation to issue such Shares unless and until such Shares are so listed, and the right to exercise any Stock Option or other Award with respect to such Shares will be suspended until such listing has been effected.

(b) If at any time counsel to the Company is of the opinion that any sale or delivery of Shares under an Award is or may be unlawful or result in the imposition of excise taxes on the Company, the Company will have no obligation to make such sale or delivery, or to make any application or to effect or to maintain any qualification or registration under the Securities Act or otherwise, with respect to Shares or Awards, and the right to exercise any Stock Option or other Award will be suspended until, in the opinion of said counsel, such sale or delivery would be lawful or would not result in the imposition of excise taxes on the Company.

(c) Upon termination of any period of suspension under this Section 10.7, any Award affected by such suspension that has not expired or terminated will be reinstated as to all Shares available before such suspension and as to Shares that would otherwise have become available during the period of such suspension, but no such suspension will extend the term of any Award.

(d) A Participant will be required to supply the Company with certificates, representations, and information that the Company requests and otherwise cooperate with the Company in obtaining any listing, registration, qualification, exemption, consent, and approval the Company determines necessary or appropriate.

10.8 Stockholders Agreement and Other Requirements. Notwithstanding any other term or condition of the Plan, as a condition to the receipt of Shares under an Award, to the extent required by the Committee, the Participant must execute and deliver a Stockholder’s agreement and/or such other documentation that sets forth certain restrictions on transferability of the Shares acquired upon exercise or purchase, and such other terms and conditions as the Committee may establish. The Company may require, as a condition of exercise, the Participant to become a party to any other existing Stockholder agreement (or other agreement).

10.9 Governing Law. The Plan and actions taken in connection with the Plan will be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware (regardless of the law that might otherwise govern under applicable Delaware principles of conflict of laws).

10.10 Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial. Any suit, action, or proceeding with respect to the Plan or any Award or Award Agreement, or any judgment entered by any court of competent jurisdiction in respect of the Plan or any Award or Award Agreement, will be resolved only in the courts of the State of Delaware or the United States District Court for the District of Delaware and the appellate courts having jurisdiction of appeals in such courts. In that context, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each of the Company and each Participant irrevocably and unconditionally (a) submits in any proceeding relating to the Plan or any Award or Award Agreement, or for the recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect of the Plan or any Award or Award Agreement (a “Proceeding”), to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of Delaware or the United States District Court for the District of Delaware and the appellate courts having jurisdiction of appeals in such courts, and agrees that all claims in respect of any Proceeding will be heard and determined in such state court or, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, in such federal court, (b) consents that any Proceeding may and will be brought in such courts and waives any objection that the Company or the Participant may have at any time after the Effective Date to the venue or jurisdiction of any Proceeding in any such court or that the Proceeding was brought in an inconvenient court and agrees not to plead or claim the same, (c) waives all right to trial by jury in any Proceeding (whether based on contract, tort, or otherwise) arising out of or relating to the Plan or any Award or Award Agreement, (d)

A-14

agrees that service of process in any Proceeding may be effected by mailing a copy of such process by registered or certified mail (or any substantially similar form of mail), postage prepaid, to such party, in the case of a Participant, at the Participant’s address shown in the books and records of the Company or, in the case of the Company, at the Company’s principal offices, attention Chair of the Board, and (e) agrees that nothing in the Plan will affect the right to effect service of process in any other manner permitted by the laws of the State of Delaware.

10.11 Other Benefits. No Award granted or paid out under the Plan will be considered compensation for purposes of computing benefits under any retirement plan of the Company or any Affiliate or affect any benefit or compensation under any other benefit plan now or subsequently in effect under which the availability or amount of benefits is related to the level of compensation.

10.12 Costs. The Company will bear all expenses associated with administering the Plan, including expenses of issuing Common Stock under Awards.

10.13 No Right to Same Benefits. The terms and conditions of Awards need not be the same with respect to each Participant, and Awards to individual Participants need not be the same in subsequent years (if granted at all).

10.14 Death/Disability. The Committee may in its sole discretion require the transferee of a Participant to supply it with written notice of the Participant’s death or Disability and to supply it with a copy of the will (in the case of the Participant’s death) or such other evidence as the Committee deems necessary to establish the validity of the transfer of an Award. The Committee may also require that the agreement of the transferee to be bound by the Plan.

10.15 Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act. All elections and transactions under the Plan by Persons subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act involving Shares are intended to comply with any applicable exemptive condition under Rule 16b-3. The Committee may establish and adopt written administrative guidelines, designed to facilitate compliance with Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act, as it may deem necessary or proper for the administration and operation of the Plan and the transaction of business thereunder.

10.16 Section 409A. The Plan and Awards are intended to comply with Section 409A and will be limited, construed, and interpreted in accordance with such intent. To the extent that any Award is subject to Section 409A, it will be paid in a manner that complies with Section 409A, including proposed, temporary or final regulations or any other guidance issued by the Secretary of the Treasury and the Internal Revenue Service with respect thereto. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, any Plan provision that is inconsistent with Section 409A will be deemed to be amended to comply with Section 409A and to the extent such provision cannot be amended to comply, such provision will be null and void. The Company will have no liability to a Participant, or any other party, if an Award that is intended to be exempt from or compliant with Section 409A is not so exempt or compliant, or for any action taken by the Committee or the Company and, in the event that any amount or benefit under the Plan becomes subject to penalties under Section 409A, responsibility for payment of such penalties will rest solely with the affected Participants and not with the Company. Notwithstanding any other provision in the Plan or any Award Agreement, any payment(s) of “nonqualified deferred compensation” (within the meaning of Section 409A) that are otherwise required to be made under the Plan to a “specified employee” (as defined under Section 409A) as a result of such employee’s separation from service (other than a payment that is not subject to Section 409A) will be delayed for the first 6 months after such separation from service (or, if earlier, the date of death of the specified employee) and will instead be paid (in a manner set forth in the Award Agreement) upon expiration of such delay period. All installment payments under the Plan will be deemed separate payments for purposes of Section 409A.

10.17 Successors and Assigns. The Plan will be binding on all successors and permitted assigns of a Participant, including the estate of such Participant and the executor, administrator, or trustee of such estate.

10.18 Severability of Terms and Conditions. If any term or condition of the Plan is held invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability will not affect any other term or condition of the Plan, and the Plan will be construed and enforced as if such term or condition had not been included.

A-15

10.19 Payments to Minors, Etc. Any benefit payable to or for the benefit of a minor, an incompetent Person, or other Person incapable of receipt thereof will be considered paid when paid to such Person’s guardian or to the party providing or reasonably appearing to provide for the care of such Person, and such payment will fully discharge the Committee, the Board, the Company, all Affiliates, and their employees, agents, and representatives with respect thereto.

10.20 Lock-Up Agreement. As a condition to the grant of an Award, if requested by the Company and the lead underwriter of any public offering of Common Stock (the “Lead Underwriter”), a Participant must irrevocably agree not to sell, contract to sell, grant any option to purchase, transfer the economic risk of ownership in, make any short sale of, pledge or otherwise transfer or dispose of, any interest in any Common Stock or any securities convertible into, derivative of, or exchangeable or exercisable for, or any other rights to purchase or acquire Common Stock (except Common Stock included in such public offering or acquired on the public market after such offering) during such period of time after the effective date of a registration statement of the Company filed under the Securities Act that the Lead Underwriter may specify (the “Lock-Up Period”). Each Participant must sign such documents as may be requested by the Lead Underwriter to effect the foregoing. The Company may impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to Common Stock acquired under an Award until the end of such Lock-Up Period.

10.21 Clawbacks. All awards, amounts, or benefits received or outstanding under the Plan will be subject to clawback, cancellation, recoupment, rescission, payback, reduction, or other similar action in accordance with any Company clawback or similar policy or any Applicable Law related to such actions. A Participant’s acceptance of an Award will constitute the Participant’s acknowledgement of and consent to the Company’s application, implementation, and enforcement of any applicable Company clawback or similar policy that may apply to the Participant, whether adopted before or after the Effective Date, and any Applicable Law relating to clawback, cancellation, recoupment, rescission, payback, or reduction of compensation, and the Participant’s agreement that the Company may take any actions that may be necessary to effectuate any such policy or Applicable Law, without further consideration or action.

10.22 Data Protection. A Participant’s acceptance of an Award will be deemed to constitute the Participant’s acknowledgement of and consent to the collection and processing of personal data relating to the Participant so that the Company and the Affiliates can fulfill their obligations and exercise their rights under the Plan and generally administer and manage the Plan. This data will include data about participation in the Plan and Shares offered or received, purchased, or sold under the Plan and other appropriate financial and other data (such as the date on which the Awards were granted) about the Participant and the Participant’s participation in the Plan.

10.23 Unfunded Plan. The Plan is intended to constitute an “unfunded” plan for incentive and deferred compensation. With respect to any payment as to which a Participant has a fixed and vested interest but that is not yet made to a Participant by the Company, nothing in the Plan gives any Participant any right that is greater than the rights of a general unsecured creditor of the Company with respect to their Awards. If the Committee or the Company chooses to set aside funds in a trust or otherwise for the payment of Awards under the Plan, such funds shall at all times be subject to the claims of the creditors of the Company in the event of its bankruptcy or insolvency. The grant of an Award will not require a segregation of any of the Company’s assets for satisfaction of the Company’s payment obligation under any Award.

10.24 Plan Construction. In the Plan, unless otherwise stated, the following uses apply:

(a) references to Applicable Law refer to the Applicable Law and any amendments and supplements thereto and any successor Applicable Law, and to all valid and binding rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, court decisions, and other regulatory and judicial authority issued or rendered thereunder, as amended or supplemented, or their successors, as in effect at the relevant time;

A-16

(b) in computing periods from a specified date to a later specified date, the words “from” and “commencing on” (and the like) mean “from and including,” and the words “to,” “until,” and “ending on” (and the like) mean “to and including”;

(c) indications of time of day will be based upon the time applicable to the location of the principal headquarters of the Company;

(d) the words “include,” “includes,” and “including” (and the like) mean “include, without limitation,” “includes, without limitation,” and “including, without limitation” (and the like), respectively;

(e) all references to articles, sections, and exhibits are to articles, sections, and exhibits in or to the Plan;

(f) all words used will be construed to be of such gender or number as the circumstances and context require;

(g) the captions and headings of articles, sections, and exhibits have been inserted solely for convenience of reference and will not be considered a part of the Plan, nor will any of them affect the meaning or interpretation of the Plan;

(h) any reference to an agreement, plan, policy, form, document, or set of documents, and the rights and obligations of the parties under any such agreement, plan, policy, form, document, or set of documents, will mean the agreement, plan, policy, form, document, or set of documents as amended from time to time, and any and all modifications, extensions, renewals, substitutions, or replacements thereof; and

(i) all accounting terms not specifically defined will be construed in accordance with GAAP.
