Subject: Important Message to Employee Shareholders - VOTE YOUR RYDER SHARES!
If you own shares of Ryder stock, you should have received proxy materials for our 2025 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, being held in person on Friday, May 2, 2025, at the Hotel Colonnade Coral Gables, 180 Aragon Avenue, Coral Gables, Florida. At this meeting, our shareholders, including many of you, will vote on three proposals.
As in the past, we ask that you vote with the Board’s recommendations in the Proxy Statement:
•“FOR” each of the director nominees in Proposal 1
•“FOR” Proposals 2 and 3
Your vote is important. For the Board’s full statement regarding this year’s proposals, please refer to our 2025 Proxy Statement.
Note About Accessing Proxy Materials:
If you own Ryder shares that are fully vested (e.g., through your 401(k), the Employee Stock Purchase Plan, or through Ryder’s Equity and Incentive Compensation Plan), you should have received a notice with instructions on how to electronically access the proxy materials and vote your shares. If you own shares through multiple accounts, you should have received a separate notice with a 16-digit control number to vote your shares in each account. Vote by 11:59 p.m. ET on May 1, 2025, for shares held directly, and by 11:59 p.m. ET on April 29, 2025, for shares held in a plan.
Employees who elected to receive their account materials electronically should have received an e-mail notice in March 2025. Please make sure to check your junk folder if you do not find it in your inbox. Depending on how you own your shares, your notice could have come from one or more of the following entities:
•RYDER SYSTEM, INC.
•MORGAN STANLEY SMITH BARNEY
•FIDELITY INVESTMENTS
•NATIONAL FINANCIAL SERVICES (FIDELITY)
Thank you for your continued support,
Robert Sanchez
