To our shareholders:

During fiscal year 2026 our teams navigated a dynamic and evolving environment. We remained focused on advancing our strategy, strengthening our global presence, and continuing to connect our collective of brands to customers in meaningful ways.

Across our organization, we demonstrated the power of our diversified model and the resilience of our teams, delivering progress while investing in long-term growth.

Strengthening Our

Global Foundation

We continued to invest in our global showroom network—an essential driver of customer engagement and conversion. From the expansion of our Chicago flagship to updates in key markets including New York, Monterrey, São Paulo, and Shanghai, we enhanced how customers experience the breadth of our portfolio. These spaces bring together our brands, our expertise, and our point of view on the future of design—deepening relationships with clients, dealers, and the design community.

This work builds on our broader global strategy. MillerKnoll operates across more than 100 countries, supported by a robust dealer network and international footprint that allows us to serve customers at scale.

In retail, we continued to expand our reach and bring our brands closer to customers. We opened 15 new DWR and Herman Miller locations across priority U.S. markets this year, reflecting our ongoing commitment to growing this channel and introducing modern design to new audiences. Going forward, we will continue to expand our retail store footprint across North America and deepen our product assortment but also take what we have learned along the way to refine our approach and focus on operational discipline.

Across both contract and retail, we are creating a more connected ecosystem—one that allows customers to experience our brands across work and home, and one that reinforces the strength of our collective.

Advancing Design Across

the Collective

Innovation remains central to our strategy. Over the past year, we introduced new products and collections that extend our leadership in design and performance.

From healthcare solutions to new workplace and residential offerings, our pipeline reflects both the depth of our portfolio and our ability to respond to evolving customer needs.

This work includes the introduction of Knoll Dividends Skyline, which builds on the legacy of a foundational workplace system to support more flexible and dynamic environments, as well as the remastered Herman Miller Aeron chair, featuring new colors and sustainability advancements. The Aeron chair debuted at Design Days alongside 42 other new product lines and extensions from across the collective.

We also launched our exhibitions program as a platform for cultural dialogue and design exploration. New openings such as High-Touch and Walking Sticks highlighted perspectives on craftsmanship, materiality, and the role of design in shaping

human experience.

"Across our organization, we demonstrated the power of our diversified model and the resilience of our teams, delivering progress while investing in long-term growth."

We also extended this presence globally through our sponsorship of the Lella and Massimo Vignelli retrospective at the Triennale Milano, further connecting MillerKnoll to leading conversations in contemporary design and architecture.

MillerKnoll’s purpose to design for the good of humankind continues to guide this work. Design is not only what we create, but also how we solve problems, shape environments, and improve experiences across the spaces where people live, work, and gather.

Designing a Better World

Our commitment to sustainability remains a defining element of who we are and how we operate. This year, we continued to advance our Better World efforts—embedding sustainability across our products, operations, and supply chain. We achieved meaningful milestones, including operating our global manufacturing facilities on renewable energy and expanding circular initiatives that keep materials in use and out of landfills.

We continue to be recognized externally. We were named a USA Today Climate Leader, earned a Gold rating from EcoVadis, and were recognized by Fast Company as one of the Best Workplaces for Innovators, affirming the connection between sustainability, innovation, and the strength of our culture.

The Power of Our People

None of our progress would be possible without our people. Across MillerKnoll, our teams bring creativity, expertise, and accountability to their work every day. Their commitment drives our ability to innovate, execute, and deliver for

our customers

In 2026, MillerKnoll was named to Fortune’s World’s Most Admired Companies list and included among TIME’s America’s Best Companies, further underscoring the impact of our people and the strength of our collective.

Through initiatives like our Day of Purpose and ongoing philanthropic efforts, our teams continue to support the communities where we live and work, reinforcing our values in action.

Executing with Discipline

The MillerKnoll Performance System, in its 30th year, continues to strengthen our operational capabilities, enabling efficiency, quality, and scalability across our global footprint.

Our diversified model, spanning contract, retail, and international markets, allows us to adapt to changing conditions and capture opportunities across regions and customer segments. While the macroeconomic environment continues to present challenges, we are encouraged by areas of resilience—including demand in sectors such as healthcare and education, as well as continued engagement across our retail platforms.

"Design is not only what we create, but also how we solve problems, shape environments, and improve experiences across the spaces where people live, work, and gather."

Looking ahead, we are focusing on further improving operating discipline, optimizing our cost structure across our business segment, and strengthening our balance sheet by reducing debt and improving

cash flow.

FY27 also marks an important milestone. It has been five years since the formation of MillerKnoll. Two iconic organizations have come together as a global collective of brands with a shared purpose and a stronger, more diversified foundation.

I’m honored to have stepped into the role of Interim Chief Executive Officer at this important moment for the company. Having spent more than two decades with MillerKnoll and Herman Miller, I’ve had the opportunity to work across our business and alongside the teams who drive our performance every day. We have a differentiated portfolio of brands and a talented global team. I look forward to our next chapter.

Thank you for your continued support and investment in MillerKnoll.

•Consumer spending levels, which have a significant impact on demand for our products within our Global Retail segment;

2026 Proxy Statement 3


Corporate Governance						Table of Contents

PROPOSAL

ELECTION OF

DIRECTORS

The Board of Directors of the Company has nominated the following two directors, previously elected by our shareholders for re-election to the Board: Jeanne K. Gang and Michael R. Smith. In addition, our Board of Directors has nominated one director recently appointed to the Board for election to the Board by shareholders: Claire F. Spofford is nominated to serve a three-year term expiring at the 2029 Annual Meeting. All nominees are nominated to serve a 3-year term. The Board approved each of the nominees following the recommendation of our Governance and Corporate Responsibility Committee.

More information about the nominees and the directors who will continue in office following the Annual Meeting is provided below. Unless otherwise directed by a shareholder’s proxy, the persons named as proxy holders in the proxy will vote for the nominees named above. If any of the nominees becomes unavailable, which we do not anticipate, the Board of Directors may designate substitute nominees at its discretion. In that event, your proxy will be voted for the substituted nominees unless you have withheld authority to vote for directors. Shares cannot be voted for a greater number of people than the number of nominees named.

Our Bylaws provide that each director will be elected by the majority of the votes cast with respect to that director’s election at any meeting of shareholders for the election of directors, other than a contested election. A majority of the votes cast means that the number of votes cast “for” a director’s election exceeds the number of votes “withheld” with respect to that director’s election. In a contested election, each director will be elected by a plurality of the votes cast with respect to that director’s election at the meeting. An election is considered contested if the number of persons properly nominated to serve as directors exceeds the number of directors to be elected at that meeting.

In an uncontested election of directors, any nominee for director who is already serving as a director and receives a greater number of votes “withheld” from his or her election than votes “for” his or her election (a “majority against vote”) is required to promptly tender his or her offer of resignation. Abstentions and broker non-votes are not counted as votes cast either “for” or “withheld” with respect to that director’s election. The Governance and Corporate Responsibility Committee of the Board will then promptly consider the offer of resignation submitted by a director receiving a majority against vote, and that Committee will recommend to the Board whether to accept or reject the tendered offer of resignation or whether other action is recommended.

The Board must act on the tendered offer of resignation no later than 90 days following the certification of the shareholder vote for the meeting at which the election occurred. In considering the Committee’s recommendation, the Board will consider the factors presented by the Committee and such additional information and factors the Board believes to be relevant. The Company will promptly publicly disclose the Board’s decision and rationale as to whether to accept the resignation, or reasons for rejecting the resignation, if applicable. Including a full explanation of the process by which the decision was reached and the reasons for the Board’s decision. Any director who tenders a resignation pursuant to those procedures may not participate in the Committee recommendation or the Board consideration regarding whether to accept the tendered resignation.

The Board of Directors currently consists of 10 directors, all of whom are considered independent by applicable Nasdaq listing standards. Our Bylaws require that directors be divided into three classes, each class to be as nearly equal in number as possible. Members of each class hold office until the third succeeding annual meeting following their election (other than new directors elected to a class in the middle of the three-year term for that class) and until their successors are duly elected and qualified, or until their removal or resignation.


The Board of Directors recommends a vote “FOR” the election of each of the nominees to serve as directors.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE AND BOARD MATTERS

Board Governance Guidelines

Our Board of Directors is committed to sound and effective corporate governance practices, ethical conduct, and strong oversight of key topics including enterprise risk management, executive compensation, and cybersecurity, among others. These practices reflect the Board’s long-standing philosophy that a proper structure, appropriate policies and procedures, and reflective cultural factors provide the cornerstone to good governance. The Board documented those practices by adopting our Board Governance Guidelines (the “Guidelines”). These Guidelines address governance philosophy, director responsibilities, the composition of the Board, required Board meetings and materials, and other corporate governance matters. Under the Guidelines, a majority of the members of our Board must qualify as “independent” under the Nasdaq listing rules. Our Guidelines also require the Board to have an Audit Committee, a Compensation Committee, and a Governance and Corporate Responsibility Committee, and that each member of those committees qualifies as an independent director under the Nasdaq listing standards. Our Guidelines are available for review on our website at www.millerknoll.com/investor-relations/corporate-governance/governance-guidelines.

Leadership Structure

The Board believes the roles of Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chair of the Board should normally be separated. However, the Guidelines state that, if the positions are combined, the Board is to closely monitor the performance and working relationship between the CEO/Chair and the Board. In addition, if the positions are combined, the Board will establish a Lead Director who is an independent director, has appropriate authority and duties to act as a liaison between directors and the CEO/Chair, and chairs meetings of the independent directors. Consistent with our Guidelines, the roles of CEO and Chair are currently separate. Mr. Hoke currently serves as Chair of the Board. As Mr. Hoke is not an employee of the Company, he serves as a non-executive Chair.

Director Independence

As required by our Guidelines, our Board has determined that each of our current directors qualifies as an “independent director,” as defined in the Nasdaq listing rules, and that none of those independent directors has a material relationship with the Company outside of their directorship. The Board’s determination was made as a result of its review of a summary of completed individual questionnaires addressing the nature and extent of each member’s relationship with the Company and taking into consideration the definition of “independent director” under the Nasdaq rules. Our Board also determined that each member of the Audit Committee, Compensation Committee, and Governance and Corporate Responsibility Committee meets the independence requirements applicable to those committees as prescribed by the Nasdaq listing rules and, as to the Audit Committee, the applicable rules of the SEC.

Board Tenure

Our directors have an average tenure of 8.9 years on the Board.

Board’s Role in Risk Oversight

Under the Guidelines, the Board of Directors is responsible for evaluating CEO performance, monitoring succession planning, reviewing the Company’s major financial objectives, evaluating whether the business is being properly managed, and overseeing the processes for maintaining the integrity of the Company with respect to our financial statements, public disclosures, and compliance with laws. The Board has delegated the primary oversight for managing the risk with respect to some of these responsibilities to various Board committees as described in the committee charters.

The following chart outlines our risk management structure and responsibilities:

MANAGEMENT

Key Risk Responsibilities

•Operations: Identify and Manage Business Risks

•Corporate Functions: Help Create Risk Framework, Including Defining Boundaries and Monitoring Risk

•Internal Audit: Provides Assurance on Internal Controls and Governance Processes

As part of the enterprise risk management process, the Company’s management annually engages in an enterprise risk management process, the key output of which is a series of risk matrices intended to identify and categorize strategic risks. The matrices also identify (1) those members of senior management who are responsible for monitoring each major risk, and (2) whether that risk is reviewed by the Board or a committee of the Board. The development of the matrices is facilitated by our Business Risk Group (the internal audit function of the Company), through discussions with senior management. Management and the Business Risk Group annually review and discuss the risk assessment process, top enterprise risks, and mitigation plans to address the top enterprise risks with the Audit Committee and full Board, as appropriate.

During the past fiscal year, our independent compensation consultant, Pay Governance, reviewed our compensation policies and practices to determine if those policies or practices are reasonably likely to have a material adverse impact on the Company. The Business Risk Group reviewed and agreed with Pay Governance’s report and confirmed the results with the Compensation Committee in March 2026. In conducting its review of the compensation plans, the Compensation Committee considered both the structure of the compensation plans and the presence of risk-mitigating features such as multi-year earning requirements, vesting provisions, and clawback provisions. Based on the evaluation, the Compensation Committee agreed with management’s determination that our compensation policies and practices are not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company.

Code of Business Conduct and Ethics

Our Board has adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics that applies to all our employees, officers, and directors. This code is posted on our website at www.millerknoll.com/legal/code-of-business-conduct-and-ethics. Any changes to or waivers of the code involving any financial officer, executive officer, or member of our Board must be approved by the Board of Directors or the Governance and Corporate Responsibility Committee of the Board. If we are required by SEC rules to publicly disclose any such changes or waivers, we intend to do so on our website, millerknoll.com/investor-relations.

Insider Trading Policy

The Company has adopted an insider trading policy governing the purchase, sale, and/or other disposition of its securities by its directors, officers, employees, and other covered persons. The Company believes this policy is reasonably designed to promote compliance with insider trading laws, rules, and regulations, and the exchange listing standards applicable to the Company. A copy of this policy is filed as an exhibit to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2026.

Meeting Attendance

Each of our directors is expected to attend all meetings of the Board and applicable committee meetings. Directors are encouraged to join the webcast for the Annual Meeting of Shareholders and all of our then-current directors did so for our 2025 Annual Meeting. During fiscal 2026, the Board held four meetings, and each director attended more than 80% of the aggregate number of meetings of our Board and the Board committees on which they served. Consistent with the requirements of our Guidelines, the independent members of our Board met in executive sessions without the presence of management after each regularly scheduled Board meeting.

Communications with the Board

Shareholders and other parties interested in communicating directly with one or more of our directors may do so by writing to Corporate Secretary of MillerKnoll, Inc., 855 East Main Avenue, PO Box 302, Zeeland, Michigan 49464-0302. The Corporate Secretary will forward all relevant correspondence to the director or directors to whom the communication is directed.

Director Nominations

Shareholder Nominations

Our Bylaws contain certain procedural requirements applicable to shareholder nominations of directors. A summary of those requirements is set forth below, but shareholders should review our Bylaws for additional details.

Shareholders may nominate a person to serve as a director if they provide written notice to us not earlier than the close of business on the 120th day and not later than the close of business on the 90th day prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year’s Annual Meeting of Shareholders. However, if the date of the Annual Meeting of Shareholders is more than 30 days before or more than 60 days after such anniversary date, notice by the shareholder must be received not earlier than the close of business on the 120th day and not later than the close of business on the 90th day prior to the date of such Annual Meeting of Shareholders or, if the first public announcement of the date of such Annual Meeting of Shareholders is less than 100 days prior to the date of such meeting, the 10th day following the day on which public announcement of the date of such meeting is first made by the Company. With respect to an election to be held at a special meeting of shareholders called for that purpose, written notice must be provided not earlier than the close of business on the 120th day and not later than the close of business on the 90th day prior to the date of such special meeting or, if the first public announcement of the date of such special meeting is less than 100 days prior to the date of such special meeting, the 10th day following the day on which public announcement of the date of such meeting is first made by the Company.

The notice must include certain detailed information regarding the shareholder giving the notice as well as the proposed nominee. Please refer to our Bylaws for the detailed information that must be included in the notice. The shareholder must also deliver to the Company reasonable evidence that the shareholder has complied with the requirements of Rule 14a-19

of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) and such other information as may be reasonably required by the Company or the Board of Directors to, among other things, determine the eligibility of such nominee to serve as a director of the Company.

Evaluation of Candidates

Our Governance and Corporate Responsibility Committee is responsible for reviewing the qualifications and independence of the members of the Board. To meet the needs of the Company in a rapidly changing environment, the Guidelines explain that the Company requires a high-performing Board of Directors whose members meet the specific resource needs of the business and possess the necessary skills and expertise determined to support our business. To that end, the Governance and Corporate Responsibility Committee considers a number of factors it deems appropriate when considering candidates for the Board. Such factors include experience and knowledge of the Company's history and culture; technical experience and backgrounds such as manufacturing, design, marketing, technology, finance, management structure and philosophy; and experience as a senior executive in a public company. These factors, and others as considered useful by the Governance and Corporate Responsibility Committee or the Board, are reviewed in the context of an assessment of the perceived needs of the Board at a particular point in time.

A shareholder may also make a recommendation to the Governance and Corporate Responsibility Committee regarding any individual that the shareholder desires the Committee to consider for possible nomination as a candidate for election to the Board. The Board evaluates all candidates, including those that shareholders recommend, in the same manner and under the same standards.

Director Retirement Policy

Under our Guidelines, no person may be elected as a director after attaining age 75, and a director who attains age 75 while in office is required to tender their written resignation, which resignation shall be effective as of (or no later than) the Annual Meeting of Shareholders at or immediately after such person attains age 75. Additionally, under our Guidelines, the Board is permitted to temporarily waive the retirement-age provision for a specific, one-time action where the Board determines such waiver to be in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders.

Non-Employee Director Compensation

The Director Compensation for Fiscal 2026 table presented below provides information on the compensation of each director for fiscal 2026. The standard annual compensation of each director is $240,000. The Audit Committee Chair receives an additional $25,000, the Chairs of the Compensation Committee and the Governance and Corporate Responsibility Committee each receive an additional $20,000. The Chair of the Board of Directors receives additional annual compensation of $120,000 and is eligible to participate in the Company’s health insurance plan. Ms. Owen, the Company’s prior President and CEO, did not receive any additional compensation for serving on the Board of Directors.

In 2026, the annual compensation including the additional Chair compensation described above (collectively, the “Annual Fee”) was payable by one or more of the following forms, as selected by each director: (1) in cash, (2) in Company shares, (3) in deferred cash under the Amended and Restated MillerKnoll, Inc. Director Deferred Compensation Plan (the “Director Deferred Compensation Plan”) described below, (4) in deferred stock units under the Director Deferred Compensation Plan, or (5) as a contribution to the MillerKnoll Educational Scholarship Fund or the MillerKnoll Global Associate Relief Fund. Each director’s selection is subject to the requirement described under “Annual Fees - Minimum Equity Component” below.

Annual Fees - Minimum Equity Component

At least 50% of each director’s Annual Fee must be elected in one or more of the permissible forms of equity, which includes direct issuance of shares or deferred stock units issued under the Director Deferred Compensation Plan described below.

Deferred Compensation

The Director Deferred Compensation Plan allows non-employee directors of the Company to defer their annual director fees in either a deferred cash account or in deferred stock units.

2026 Proxy Statement 13


Corporate Governance						Table of Contents

In the deferred cash account, each account is credited with a number of units equal to a number of shares of the investment selected by the director in certain investment options which do not include Company stock. The initial value of the deferral is equal to the dollar amount of the deferral, divided by the per share fair market value of the selected investment at the time of the deferral. The units are credited with any dividends paid on the investment. The Company maintains a Rabbi Trust to fund its obligations under this plan.

If elected, deferred stock units are credited to the director in a separate deferred stock account with each unit representing one equivalent share of the Company’s common stock to be issued after the deferral period. The deferred stock units are valued at the market price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant, and the value of the units credited are expensed on the date of grant. Each time a dividend is paid on the Company’s common stock, the director is credited with additional deferred stock units in proportion to the amount of the dividend. At the time(s) specified by the director for receipt of this deferred compensation, these deferred stock units will be paid to the director in shares of the Company’s common stock issued pursuant to the Company's long-term incentive plan. The units do not entitle the directors to the rights of holders of common stock, such as voting rights, until shares are issued.

Stock Ownership Guidelines

Director stock ownership guidelines have been in effect since 1997. These guidelines, like those applicable to management, are intended to reinforce the importance of linking shareholder and director interests. It is the policy of the Board that all directors, consistent with their responsibilities to our shareholders, hold an equity interest in the Company. Toward this end, the Board requires that each director have an equity interest after one year on the Board. The Board encourages each director, within five years after joining the Board, to have shares of common stock or options for common stock of the Company with a value of at least two and one-half times the amount of the standard annual director retainer.

Other

Directors are reimbursed for travel and other necessary business expenses incurred in the performance of their services for the Company, and they are covered under our business travel insurance policies and the Director and Officer Liability Insurance Policy.

Perquisites

Some directors’ spouses or partners accompany them to attend Board meetings. The Company pays for their expenses, as well as some amenities for the directors and their spouses or partners, including some meals and social events. The total of these perquisites is less than $10,000 per director per year. Directors are approved to purchase Company products under employee discount pricing. Except where noted in the table footnotes below, the value of this perquisite was less than $10,000 for all directors.

BOARD COMMITTEES

Our Board has standing Audit, Compensation, and Governance and Corporate Responsibility Committees, as discussed below. Committee responsibilities are detailed in written charters, current copies of which are available on our website at www.millerknoll.com/investor-relations/corporate-governance/board-committees.

Audit Committee

We have an Audit Committee comprised of Lisa A. Kro (Chair), Douglas D. French, John T. Maeda, and Michael R. Smith. The Board has determined that Ms. Kro is qualified as an “audit committee financial expert” within the meaning of the applicable SEC regulations. This Committee, composed entirely of independent directors under the applicable Nasdaq listing rules, as well as the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, is responsible for overseeing management’s reporting practices, internal controls, compliance framework, and enterprise risk management on behalf of the Board of Directors. This oversight includes the quarterly evaluation of the Company’s cybersecurity risks, which are regularly reported to and discussed among members of the Board of Directors, in addition to an annual cybersecurity update to the Board of Directors. The Committee is also responsible for appointing, approving the compensation of, and overseeing our independent registered public accounting firm. The Committee’s function is more fully described in its charter, which the Board has adopted and is available on our website at https://library.hermanmiller.group/asset/fef5ffb9-ac9c-4c97-863d-2f184cc2e599/millerknoll_audit_committee_charter_2026.pdf. The Audit Committee met eight times during the last fiscal year.

Compensation Committee

As of the end of fiscal 2026, our Compensation Committee is comprised of Michael C. Smith (Chair), Tina Edekar Edmundson, and Claire F. Spofford. The Compensation Committee recommends the annual executive incentive plan and the annual compensation of our Chief Executive Officer and President to the Board, approves the annual compensation and executive incentive plan for other executive officers, approves the grants of employee equity awards, and acts as the administrative committee for our equity-based compensation plans. A description of the Committee’s processes and procedures for the consideration and determination of executive and director compensation is set forth in the CD&A – Roles and Responsibilities in Setting Officer Executive Compensation section of this Proxy Statement. The Committee met five times during the last fiscal year.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

Our Compensation Committee during fiscal 2026 consisted of Michael C. Smith (Chair), Tina Edekar Edmundson, and Claire F. Spofford. None of the foregoing has ever been an officer or employee of the Company or has had any relationship that is required to be disclosed as a transaction with a related party. During fiscal 2026, none of the following interlock relationships existed: (a) an executive officer of the Company served as a member of the compensation committee (or equivalent) of another entity, one of whose executive officers served on our Compensation Committee; (b) an executive officer of the Company served as a director of another entity, one of whose executive officers served on our Compensation Committee; or (c) an executive officer of the Company served as a member of the compensation committee (or equivalent) of another entity, one of whose executive officers served as a director of the Company.

Governance and Corporate Responsibility Committee

We have a Governance and Corporate Responsibility Committee comprised of Heidi J. Manheimer (Chair), Jeanne K. Gang, and Michael R. Smith. The Governance and Corporate Responsibility Committee develops and recommends governance standards and policies and recommends director compensation to the Board, including that of the Chair of the Board. In addition, the Committee identifies and recommends candidates for election to the Board. The Committee also reviews and assesses the effectiveness of the Company’s goals and objectives relating to environmental, social, and governance responsibility, stewardship, and sustainability practices, and recommends to the Board such measures and actions deemed appropriate by the Committee. The Committee met five times during the last fiscal year.

PROPOSAL

ADVISORY VOTE TO APPROVE NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICER COMPENSATION

As required by federal securities law, and consistent with the annual frequency recommended by our Board and approved by our shareholders, we are providing our shareholders the opportunity to vote on the compensation of the executive officers named in this Proxy Statement (our "Named Executive Officers" or "NEOs") on an advisory basis. This vote is commonly known as the “say-on-pay” proposal. Thus, you are asked to vote on the resolution set forth below at this year’s Annual Meeting.

The Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) has considered the results of the 2025 advisory vote on executive compensation for which approximately 96% of the votes cast were voted for the approval, on an advisory basis, of the compensation of our Named Executive Officers as described in the 2025 Proxy Statement. The Committee believes that the total compensation paid to the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and the other Named Executive Officers (the “Other NEOs”), as disclosed in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis (“CD&A”) section, is fair and appropriate and should be approved by our shareholders. The compensation of the Named Executive Officers is designed to vary with the results of the business and reward consistent improvement in the results delivered to shareholders. The incentive compensation each executive earns each year is directly tied to our financial and operational performance against the criteria approved by the Committee and Board. The Committee believes that the compensation paid to each NEO, as disclosed in the CD&A section, is appropriate in light of the Company’s and each officer’s performance during the fiscal year. In addition, each of the elements of compensation, and the total compensation opportunity at target for each officer, has been benchmarked against comparable positions in the competitive market.

Shareholders are being asked to approve the following resolution at the Annual Meeting:

“RESOLVED, that the compensation paid to the Company’s Named Executive Officers, as disclosed in the Company’s Proxy Statement for this Annual Meeting pursuant to the rules of the SEC, including the Compensation Discussion and Analysis section, the compensation tables, and narrative disclosure, is hereby APPROVED.”


The Board of Directors recommends a vote “FOR” the advisory vote to approve the Company’s Named Executive Officer compensation.

This vote is advisory and non-binding; however, the Board of Directors and Committee will review and consider the voting results in connection with future deliberations concerning our executive compensation program.

Compensation Philosophy and Executive Compensation Program Overview

Compensation Philosophy

Our compensation philosophy, as approved by the Committee, is to reward our executives for meeting financial and operational goals that ultimately create shareholder value. We have designed our compensation program to provide executive officers with target compensation levels that generally reflect median market compensation rates for their position based upon data that our independent compensation consultant provides (as further described in the section titled Role of Market Data and Compensation Peer Group). Consistent with this philosophy, below are the key objectives of our executive compensation program:

•Align the interests of executive officers with the long-term interests of shareholders

•Link a material portion of executive officers’ total annual compensation directly to financial and operating performance

•Attract, motivate, and retain executive officers of outstanding ability

•Reinforce our values, build community, and focus employees on achieving key strategies

Executive Compensation Program Overview

Our executive compensation program is comprised of five primary components. The following table provides an overview of each element of our fiscal 2026 compensation program for our NEOs:


Element	Description	Metrics / Vehicles for Fiscal 2026
Base Salary	Fixed element of cash compensation determined by external market data, positions at a similar level within the Company, and incumbent experience, performance, and scope of responsibilities.	—
Annual Incentives	Variable element of cash compensation. NEOs, consistent with other salaried employees, have the opportunity to earn an annual incentive payout pursuant to the Annual Incentive Cash Bonus Plan (AIP) based upon performance against predetermined goals during the fiscal year.	Operating Earnings, As Adjusted
Long-Term Incentives (“LTI”)	Equity-based component of compensation that is denominated in performance stock units (“PSUs”) and RSUs. Long-term incentives encourage long-term strategic thinking and decision-making while also promoting ownership in the Company and alignment with shareholders’ interests.	CEO: 60% PSUs, 40% RSUs LT: 50% PSUs, 50% RSUs PSUs measured by: •50% EBITDA, As Adjusted •50% Revenue •+/- 25% TSR modifier
Benefits	We maintain retirement plans along with health insurance plans which are available to full-time and most part-time employees.	—
Other Executive Plans and Perquisites	NEOs and other eligible employees may participate in our deferred compensation plan and our executive long-term disability plan and are allowed to obtain a comprehensive physical at our cost. Additionally, Ms. Owen was provided 35 hours of personal aircraft usage in her role as CEO.	—

Role of Market Data and Compensation Peer Group

Role of Market Data

The Compensation Committee, with assistance from its independent compensation consultant Pay Governance LLC, annually reviews competitive market data to assist with evaluating our executive compensation program and individual NEO compensation levels.

Pay Governance utilized compensation peer group data (the following section Compensation Peer Group provides additional information), along with compensation data from the following survey sources, when analyzing the market competitiveness of our executive pay levels: Willis Towers Watson Executive Compensation Database and Aon Radford Network Executive Compensation Database. We refer to the compensation peer group data and the survey data collectively as “market data.” The market data reflects companies or operations with revenues similar to the related MillerKnoll scope of operations. Pay Governance compared pay elements on an individual basis and in total (e.g., salary, target total cash, and target total direct compensation) of each executive officer to the market data for a comparable benchmark position.

Compensation Peer Group

The Committee reviews the composition of the compensation peer group on an annual basis and approves adjustments to ensure the group remains appropriate. The criteria used to develop the compensation peer group is a combination of quantitative and qualitative factors:


Factor Type			Description
Quantitative			•Company type (publicly traded) •Geographic locations (U.S.-based) •Industry •Financials
Qualitative			•Business dynamics •Key business and/or talent competitor to MillerKnoll •Inclusion in external peer group(s) •Recent financial performance •Geographic revenue mix

The compensation peer group used for fiscal 2026, as approved by the Committee, is as follows:


American Woodmark Corporation	Leggett & Platt, Incorporated	UFP Industries, Inc.
Floor & Decor Holdings, Inc.	MasterBrands, Inc.	Wayfair, Inc.
Fortune Brands Innovations, Inc.	RH	Williams-Sonoma, Inc.
HNI Corporation	Sleep Number Corporation
JELD-WEN Holding, Inc.	Steelcase, Inc.
La-Z-Boy Incorporated	Somnigroup International, Inc.

In January 2026, the Committee re-assessed the peer group for purposes of benchmarking compensation in connection with decisions for fiscal 2027. At that time, the Committee determined to remove Steelcase Inc. following their acquisition by HNI Corporation and evaluated the peer group to maintain a sufficient sample size of companies while maintaining to continue positioning MillerKnoll’s revenue near the median of the peer group.

Roles and Responsibilities in Setting Executive Officer Compensation

Compensation Committee

The Committee consists of three directors, each qualifying as independent under Nasdaq’s listing requirements. The Board has determined that each member of the Committee also qualifies as a non-employee director for purposes of Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act.

The responsibilities of the Committee are summarized below:

•Review and recommend the compensation of the Company’s CEO to the Board.

•Review and approve the compensation of the Company’s executive officers (except for the CEO).

•Act as the administrative committee for the Company’s annual cash incentive plan and equity-based compensation plans and such other plans as may be designated by the Board.

•Perform the other duties and responsibilities set forth in its charter or as delegated to it by the Board.

Compensation Consultant

The Committee selects and retains the services of its own independent compensation consultant and annually reviews the performance of the consultant. As part of the review process, the Compensation Committee considers the independence of the consultant in accordance with SEC and Nasdaq rules.

During fiscal 2026, in addition to the services it provided to the Compensation Committee, Pay Governance provided certain advisory services to the Governance and Corporate Responsibility Committee with respect to the compensation of the Company’s independent directors. The amount paid by the Company to Pay Governance for services it provided the Governance and Corporate Responsibility Committee in fiscal 2026 did not exceed $120,000. The decision to engage Pay Governance for these other services was recommended by management and approved by the Board. Except for the services provided to these two Board committees, Pay Governance provided no other services to MillerKnoll, and it worked with Company management, as directed by the Compensation Committee, only on matters for which the Compensation Committee is responsible.

At the Compensation Committee’s request, Pay Governance regularly attends Committee meetings. Pay Governance also communicates with the Committee or the Chair of the Committee outside committee meetings regarding matters related to the Committee’s responsibilities.

Chief Executive Officer

At the Committee’s request, the CEO works with other executives to recommend performance goals for the AIP and the PSU component of the Long-Term Incentive program. These goals are reviewed and approved by the Committee. Additionally, the CEO reviews the performance of their direct reports (including the NEOs other than themself) and makes recommendations to the Committee with respect to their compensation. The CEO does not participate in any Board conversations related to their own pay.

Fiscal 2026 Compensation Program

Consistent with our compensation philosophy, the Committee (or, in the case of the CEO, the Board) approved the following compensation actions for the NEOs.

Base Salaries

Base salary is a customary, fixed element of compensation intended to attract and retain executives. When setting the annual base salaries of our NEOs, the Committee considers market data provided by its independent compensation consultant, internal pay equity, and MillerKnoll’s financial performance and size relative to peer companies. Base salaries for each NEO are set forth below:


Name						Base Salary 2026 ($)(1)
Andi R. Owen						1,125,000
Kevin J. Veltman						520,000
Jeffrey M. Stutz						635,000
John P. Michael						605,000
Debbie F. Propst						605,000
Megan C. Lyon						575,000

(1) Reflects annualized salary.

Annual Incentive Plan

The Annual Incentive Plan (AIP) is our annual cash incentive program that covers all employees receiving non-sales incentives. For fiscal year 2026, Operating Earnings, as adjusted ("AOI, as adjusted") served as the sole performance metric in the AIP. This fiscal year we also introduced a segment multiplier which reinforces the Company's pay-for-performance approach by strengthening the direct connection between performance and compensation. The segment multiplier would only increase payouts if a segment’s performance exceeds financial targets by more than 5%. The modifier is capped at +25%.

(2)Mr. Stutz and Mr. Veltman served in multiple executive roles during fiscal 2026. As a result, their annual incentive target percentage was prorated to reflect the target opportunities associated with their respective positions during the fiscal year. The payout shown in the table represents the aggregate annual incentive award earned based on the prorated target opportunities, approved Company performance results, and any applicable segment multipliers.

Long-Term Incentives

For each executive officer, the Committee approves a target LTI award value and determines the mix of LTI vehicles to deliver that award. We convert that value for each NEO into grants with award types weighted as shown below:


	Weighting for Fiscal 2026
Award Types	CEO	Other NEOs
PSUs	60%	50%
RSUs	40%	50%

The table below sets forth the target value of the LTI grants that the Committee approved for fiscal 2026, with the exception of the LTI grants to the CEO which were approved by the Board.

Megan C. Lyon	1,063,750	27,095	27,487

(1)Mr. Veltman received his annual LTI grant in July 2025 related to his prior role before his CFO appointment. Mr. Veltman then received an off-cycle grant made when he was appointed as CFO in October 2025. Please see the related 8-K on this disclosure.

The payout opportunity for PSUs granted in fiscal year 2026 is based on two financial metrics: EBITDA, As Adjusted, and Revenue. The performance for the metrics is measured over three one-year equally-weighted periods, all of which are not eligible to vest until the completion of the three-year period. PSU grants for fiscal year 2026 are subject to modification based on our relative total shareholder return (“rTSR”) performance over the full three-year period. The grants continue to utilize three one-year performance periods due to challenges in setting multi-year goals given the cyclicality of our global business including supply chain constraints, commodity price volatility, and geopolitical issues. The rTSR modifier provides for a 25% increase to the number of earned PSUs if our relative TSR performance is at or above the 75th

2026 Proxy Statement 23

percentile of our TSR peer group (subject to an overall maximum award equal to 200% of target) or a 25% decrease to the number of PSUs earned if our relative TSR performance is below the 25th percentile of our TSR peer group. For performance between threshold and target and target and maximum, these adjustments are linearly interpolated. Metric weighting is as shown in the chart below:


	Relative TSR Payout Curve for Fiscal 2026
rTSR Performance	Relative TSR (Percentile Ranking)	Payout Modifier (Multiple of Target)
Maximum(1)	75th	x 1.25
Target	55th	x 1.00
Threshold	25th	x 0.75

(1)Subject to an overall maximum award equal to 200% of target.

The TSR peer group focuses on key competitors, companies in appropriately adjacent industries, companies with similar business drivers, and other companies with business cycles similar to that of the Company. The TSR peer group for the fiscal 2026 PSU award is as follows:


Allegion plc.	Interface, Inc.	RH
Apogee Enterprises, Inc.	JELD-WEN Holdings, Inc.	Somnigroup International Inc.
Armstrong World Industries, Inc.	La-Z-Boy Incorporated	UFP Industries, Inc.
AZZ, Inc.	Leggett & Platt, Incorporated	Williams-Sonoma, Inc.
Ethan Allen Interiors Inc.	Mohawk Industries
HNI Corporation	Quanex Building Products

(a) HNI acquired Steelcase on December 10, 2025

(b) MasterBrand acquired American Woodmark on May 28, 2026

RSUs represent the right to receive shares of MillerKnoll common stock with each unit representing the equivalent of one share of common stock as of the date of grant. These awards vest ratably 33.3%, 33.3%, and 33.4% over a three-year period on July 22nd of each year, commencing following the first anniversary of the grant date. RSUs, including accrued dividends in the form of additional RSUs on those units, convert into shares upon vesting.

PSUs Earned for Fiscal 2024 to Fiscal 2026 Performance Cycle

PSU grants made in fiscal year 2024 reached the end of their performance period at the close of fiscal year 2026. The table below outlines the metrics, goals, weightings, and actual performance for each tranche. TSR performance for the PSUs granted in fiscal 2024 ranked at the 54.6th percentile of the TSR peer group, resulting in a 99.6% multiplier applied to the final payout, resulting in a total payout of 91.2% of eligible shares vesting.

Compensation Program Changes for Fiscal 2027

For fiscal 2027, the Committee approved no changes.

After reviewing the effectiveness of the Company's executive compensation program, the Compensation Committee approved no material changes for Fiscal 2027. The Committee determined that the existing program continues to align executive compensation with Company performance, shareholder interests, and the Company's talent-management objectives, while providing a competitive market-based compensation opportunity.

Associate Benefit Plans

Retirement Plans

We maintain broad-based retirement plans, available for employees in the United States, with one plan covering the majority of our employees. Our retirement plans are designed to provide a reasonable level of replacement income upon retirement. The benefits available to NEOs are the same as those available to other non-executive employees in their respective geographic region, subject to limitations provided by law or regulation. The primary retirement plan covering most U.S.-based employees, including the NEOs, is the MillerKnoll, Inc. Retirement Plan (the “Retirement Plan”). The Retirement Plan permits employees to make salary deferrals into the plan up to the maximum amount permitted by law. We also fully match employee contributions up to 4% of the employee’s compensation contribution.

Health Insurance Plans

We maintain health insurance plans available to all full-time and qualified part-time employees. The NEOs are eligible to participate in such plans on the same terms as all other employees within their respective geographic region or business unit.

Other Executive Plans and Perquisites

Deferred Compensation Plan

The MillerKnoll, Inc. Executive Equalization Retirement Plan is a Board-approved supplemental deferred compensation plan available to highly compensated United States employees who are selected for participation by the Committee. All NEOs are currently able to participate. The plan allows participants to defer up to 50% of their base salary and 100% of their AIP bonus. Company contributions to the plan mirror the amounts we would have contributed to the Retirement Plan had the employee’s compensation not been above the statutory ceiling (currently $360,000). Investment options under this plan are similar to those available under the Retirement Plan. Company contributions in fiscal 2026 appear in the Summary Compensation Table section within “All Other Compensation.”

Executive Long-Term Disability Plan

This plan covers 60% of the rolling two-year average of compensation for a qualified disability. Executives, including our NEOs, are eligible to participate after they have received two annual incentive payments. This benefit continues as long as the executive remains disabled until age 65. The monthly benefit is capped at $10,000.

Perquisites

In fiscal 2026, we provided executives, including our NEOs, with the opportunity to obtain a comprehensive physical at our cost. In addition, we provided aircraft usage for the CEO for up to 35 hours per fiscal year for her personal use; details on the fiscal 2026 usage can be found in the Other Compensation Table.

Stock Ownership Guidelines and Stock Retention Requirements

Stock Ownership Guidelines

The Committee believes that significant stock ownership by executives is of critical importance to our ongoing success as it helps link the interests of executives and shareholders. As such, we have established stock ownership guidelines, which apply to the NEOs and executive officers. All NEOs who are currently employed by the Company are currently in compliance with their applicable stock ownership guideline. The stock ownership guidelines require these individuals to own shares of our common stock equal to a specified multiple of their annual base salary. The current applicable levels are as follows:


President and Chief Executive Officer			6x base salary
Direct reports to the CEO			3x base salary
Non-CEO Direct Reports or LT Members with a LTI Target greater than 100%			1 to 3x base salary

Stock Retention Requirements

Until the ownership guidelines are met, covered executives must retain a certain amount in Company stock, equal to 50% of the post-tax value of vested and settled shares. Compliance with the requirements is determined annually and each time an executive officer seeks to dispose of any shares of Company stock.

Incentive Clawback

The Company has in place two incentive compensation recovery policies. One policy, adopted for purposes of compliance with Section 10D of the Exchange Act and the Nasdaq listing standards, provides for the mandatory recovery of both cash- and equity-based compensation paid on the basis of the achievement of financial performance measures in the event of an accounting restatement. The other policy provides for the recovery, without duplication, of any or all such incentive compensation if an executive officer has engaged in improper conduct, as defined in that policy, irrespective of any accounting restatement. With respect to the latter policy, the Board may, in its sole discretion, after evaluating the associated costs and benefits and any other factors it deems relevant, seek to recover all or any portion of the recoverable incentive paid to any executive officer who engaged in improper conduct during the applicable period.

Anti-Hedging and Anti-Pledging Policy

The Company's insider trading policy prohibits directors and executive officers from hedging the economic risk of their ownership of our stock, including options or other derivatives related to our stock, and from pledging MillerKnoll stock.

Severance Program and Change in Control Agreements

Severance Program

The NEOs are generally “at will” employees. This means they can be discharged at any time and for no reason. We have established a severance program that applies if an executive, including our NEOs, is terminated for reasons other than malfeasance or voluntary separation. For each NEO, severance would be equal to 18 months of base salary subject to the employee not competing with us during that period. The Committee’s determination as to the amount of severance payments for these NEOs is the result of benchmarking our practices to market data. In addition, we maintain health insurance on such employee during the salary continuation period. In exchange for such payments, the employee provides the Company with a release of all claims and agrees not to work for a competitor or solicit our employees during the salary continuation period.

26 MillerKnoll


T able of Contents						Executive Compensation

Change in Control Agreements

Each NEO is party to a Management Continuity Agreement, referred to as a Change in Control (“CIC”) Agreement, with us that provides for severance benefits in the event of both a change in control and the NEO’s termination of employment (“double-trigger”). The Committee believes the use of CIC agreements is appropriate as they help ensure both a continuity of management during a possible CIC transaction and that management remains focused on completing a transaction that is expected to maximize shareholder value. Potential payments under the CIC agreements are included in the tally sheets the Committee reviews annually. The narrative and table footnotes in the Potential Payments Upon Termination, Death, Disability, Retirement, or Change in Control section describe the potential CIC payments in greater detail.

Deductibility of Compensation

Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code generally disallows a tax deduction to public corporations for compensation in excess of $1 million paid for any fiscal year to individuals who are covered employees. All of our NEOs are covered employees for this purpose. As a result, the compensation paid to each of our NEOs for fiscal 2026 in excess of $1 million will not be deductible under Section 162(m).

Nonqualified Deferred Compensation

The MillerKnoll, Inc. Executive Equalization Retirement Plan allows all United States employees who have compensation above the statutory ceiling to defer income in the same proportion as if the statutory ceiling did not exist. We make contributions to the plan such that Company contributions mirror the amounts we would have contributed to the Company’s tax-qualified 401(k) plan had the employee’s compensation not been above the statutory ceiling. Distributions from the plan are paid out in cash based on the deferral election specified by the participant. We do not guarantee a rate of return under the plan. Instead, participants make investment elections for their deferrals and Company contributions. Investment options are the same as those available under our 401(k) plan.

CEO Transition

As previously disclosed in the Company's Current Report on Form 8‑K filed on June 3, 2026 and discussed in the footnote under the Executive Officers Covered by this CD&A in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, on June 1, 2026, the Board and Ms. Owen mutually agreed that Ms. Owen would retire from the Company effective June 30, 2026. Effective May 30, 2026, Ms. Owen resigned from the Board and as an officer of the Company and commenced a leave of absence.

In connection with Ms. Owen’s transition, the Company and Ms. Owen entered into a letter agreement. Pursuant to the letter agreement, and in exchange for a mutual release of claims and in light of Ms. Owen’s retirement eligibility under the Company’s equity arrangements, Ms. Owen became entitled, upon her separation from the Company, to receive benefits under her existing compensation arrangements, consisting of (i) severance payments and benefits under her previously filed offer letter (including 18 months of base salary equal to $1,687,500 and up to 18 months of Company‑subsidized health benefits with a value of $65,626 and (ii) retirement treatment for her outstanding equity awards (with an aggregate value of $8,084,917, as further described in the “Accelerated Vesting Upon Death, Disability, Retirement, or Change in Control” below. In accordance with applicable SEC disclosure requirements, because Ms. Owen’s separation occurred during fiscal 2026, the table above does not include amounts associated with other potential termination or change-in-control scenarios that are no longer applicable.

Potential Payments Upon Termination without Change in Control

•18 months base salary continuation for NEOs if they are terminated for reasons other than cause.

•Maintain health insurance during salary continuation period.

•Employee provides the Company with a release of all claims and agrees not to work for a competitor or solicit employees during the salary continuation period.

Potential Payments Upon Termination in Connection with Change in Control

In fiscal 2026, each NEO was party to a CIC Agreement with the Company that contains “double-trigger” change in control provisions. These provisions state that there must be both a change in control and the employee must incur an actual or constructive termination of employment by us to be entitled to a payment.

A change in control (as defined more specifically in the CIC Agreements) occurs:

•If a third party becomes the owner of 35% or more of the Company’s stock;

•If a majority of the Board of Directors is composed of persons who are not recommended by the existing Board; or

•Under certain transactions involving a merger or reorganization, a sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets, or a liquidation in which the Company does not maintain certain control thresholds.

An executive is entitled to a payment under the CIC Agreement if, within two years after a change in control, the Company terminates the employment of the executive without cause or the executive terminates their employment for good reason, which is defined as the occurrence of any one or more of the following without the executive’s express written consent:

•The executive is assigned duties at any time during the six months prior to the change in control that are materially different from or inconsistent with the duties, responsibilities, and status of the executive’s position or which result in a significant reduction in the executive’s authority and responsibility as an executive within the Company or a subsidiary.

•A reduction in the executive’s base salary, target value of the annual incentive, or target value of the LTIP awards.

•The Company requires the executive to be based at a location over 50 miles from the facility that is the executive’s principal business office at the time of the change in control.

•A reduction of 5% or more in the aggregate benefits provided to the executive and his or her dependents under the Company’s employee benefit plans.

•The failure of the Company to obtain a satisfactory agreement from any successor to assume and agree to perform the CIC Agreement.

T able of Contents						Executive Compensation

If both triggering events occur, then the NEO is entitled to a change in control payment that consists of:

•A lump sum cash amount equal to the executive’s annual base salary, multiplied by two (or three, in the case of the CEO).

•A lump sum cash amount equal to two (or three, in the case of the CEO) times the greater of (1) the executive’s average bonus over the previous three years or (2) the executive’s target bonus for the fiscal year in which the change in control occurs, plus a prorated amount of the executive’s target bonus for the fiscal year in which the termination date occurs.

•Healthcare coverage, and life and disability insurance for the 24 (or 36, in the case of the CEO) consecutive month period beginning immediately after the termination date.

•Outplacement services up to a maximum of $25,000.

•All outstanding awards held by the executive under the Company’s LTIP shall vest in full as of the termination date. Specific treatment of each award type is summarized in the Vesting of Long-Term Incentive Awards section below.

The Company has no obligation to make a “gross-up” payment to the executive officer if the amount of the payments under the change in control agreements is subject to an excise tax under Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986.

To receive the payments, the NEO is obligated to comply with certain restrictive covenants under the agreement, which include committing the executive to refrain from competing with the Company for a period equal to the number of years of compensation received under the agreement.

Accelerated Vesting Upon Death, Disability, Retirement, or Change in Control for Retirement Plans

The MillerKnoll, Inc. Executive Equalization Retirement Plan, as described in the Nonqualified Deferred Compensation section, contains provisions that permit accelerated vesting upon death, disability, or change in control. In the event of a change in control, the Executive Equalization Retirement Plan provides for the acceleration of payment even if the NEO has not been terminated. The definition of change in control for this plan is the definition contained in Treasury Regulations for Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code.

CEO PAY RATIO

Pursuant to the SEC’s guidance under Item 402(u) of Regulation S-K, we are required to disclose the annual total compensation for both our CEO and median employee and the ratio of those two amounts. The SEC’s rules for identifying the median compensated employee and calculating the pay ratio based on that employee’s annual total compensation allow companies to adopt a variety of methodologies, to apply certain exclusions, and to make reasonable estimates and assumptions that reflect their employee populations and compensation practices.

As permitted under SEC rules, a company may identify its median employee for purposes of the pay ratio disclosure once every three years, unless there has been a change in the employee population or employee compensation arrangements that the company reasonably believes would result in a significant change to the pay ratio disclosure. Because we last identified our median employee in fiscal 2023, we conducted a new median employee determination for fiscal 2026. Using the methodology and assumptions described below, we identified a new median employee from our employee population as of May 30, 2026. We then calculated the annual total compensation of this employee in accordance with Item 402(c)(2)(x) of Regulation S-K for purposes of determining the CEO pay ratio.

The ratio presented below for fiscal 2026 is a reasonable estimate calculated in a manner consistent with Item 402(u):

•The annual total compensation of our CEO was $6,139,932.

•The annual total compensation of our identified median employee was $65,927.

•The ratio of the annual total compensation of our CEO to that of our identified median employee was 93 to 1.

The methodology we used to identify our median employee for this pay ratio analysis is summarized in the following table:


Item			Description
Determination Date			May 30, 2026
Employee Population(1)			Total employee population, excluding the CEO, as of the determination date was 10,084.
Consistently Applied Compensation Measure (“CACM”)			Gross wages, measured over 12 months ending on the determination date. For new hires, we annualized gross wages for any employees hired during the 12-month period ending on May 30, 2026. For non-U.S. employees, values were converted into USD using the exchange rates in effect on the determination date.

(1)As permitted by SEC rules, we did not include approximately 499 employees who are located in Austria (1), Belgium (3), Brazil (39), Denmark (371), Finland (1), Germany (39), Ireland (1), Netherlands (14), Norway (5), Poland (4), Romania (1), Spain (5), Sweden (7), Switerland (7), and Portugal (1), and in aggregate represent less than 5% of our employee population as of the determination date.

PROPOSAL

APPROVE THE MILLERKNOLL, INC. 2026 LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PLAN

The Board has adopted, subject to shareholder approval, the MillerKnoll, Inc. 2026 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). The Plan is an amendment and restatement of our existing MillerKnoll, Inc. 2025 Long-Term Incentive Plan approved by our shareholders in 2025. Shareholders are being asked to approve the Plan at the Annual Meeting. The material terms of the Plan are summarized below, and a copy of the Plan is attached as Appendix B to this Proxy Statement. The following summary is subject in its entirety to the specific provisions contained in the complete text of the Plan set forth in Appendix B to this Proxy Statement.

Overview of the Plan

The Plan provides for the grant of a variety of equity-based awards, described in more detail below, such as stock options, including incentive stock options as defined in section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended (the “Code”), stock appreciation rights (SARs), restricted stock and restricted stock units, performance stock units, and other stock-based awards.

Administration

The Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board (the “Committee”), which is required to consist of no fewer than three non-employee directors, as defined in Rule 16b-3(b)(3) of the Exchange Act. The Committee determines who may participate in the Plan; the types of awards (or combinations thereof) to be granted; the number of shares of common stock to be covered by each award; and the terms and conditions of each award, such as conditions of forfeiture, transfer restrictions, and vesting requirements. The Committee may delegate to one of its members, or to an officer of the Company, certain of its powers under the Plan, subject to limitations described in the Plan.

Eligibility

The Plan authorizes awards to non-employee directors and all employees of the Company or its subsidiaries. As of August 14, 2026, the Company had 10 non-employee directors and 10,583 employees (including employees of Company subsidiaries). The Committee determines who may participate in the Plan. All future grants under Plan are within the discretion of the Committee.

Shares Authorized for Issuance

The Company proposes to increase the share reserve by 2,800,000 shares. The restatement of the Plan being proposed for shareholder approval authorizes the Company to issue a total of 23,964,945 shares which includes 21,164,945 shares reserved for issuance under the plan being restated plus 2,800,000 additional shares. No additional shares would be issuable pursuant to the 2025 Long-Term Incentive Plan (which is being restated by the Plan proposed for shareholder approval). Shares to be issued pursuant to the Plan may be either authorized and unissued shares or shares reacquired by the Company.

Pursuant to the Plan, any shares subject to an award that terminates without the issuance of the shares, including awards that are settled in cash in lieu of shares, will be available again for issuance under the Plan and will increase the total number of shares available for grant by (a) two shares if such share is subject to a full value award, and (b) one share if such share was subject to any other type of award. The number of shares available for issuance under the Plan will not, however, be increased by the number of shares that are (1) tendered by the participant or withheld by the Company in payment of the purchase price of an option, (2) tendered by the participant or withheld by the Company to satisfy any tax withholding obligation with respect to an award, (3) purchased by the Company with proceeds received from the exercise of an option, (4) subject to a SAR that are not issued in connection with the stock settlement of that right upon its exercise, (5) subject to the cancellation of a SAR granted in tandem with an option upon the exercise of the option, and (6) subject to the cancellation of an option granted in tandem with a SAR upon the exercise of that SAR.

Pursuant to the Plan, the maximum value, measured as of the award date, of all awards granted to a non-employee director during any fiscal year is $750,000.

Types of Awards

The following is a summary of each of the types of awards that may be granted under the Plan. These summaries are qualified in all respects by the provisions of the Plan.

An “Option” is a contractual right to purchase a number of shares at a price determined at the date the option is granted. The exercise price included in both incentive stock options and nonqualified stock options must equal at least 100% of the fair market value of our stock at the date of the grant. The Plan prohibits the repricing of options. Except as otherwise provided in the Plan, options may not be exercised prior to the first anniversary of the date they are granted. Subject to these limitations, options will be exercisable at such time or times and subject to such terms and conditions as shall be determined by the Committee and set forth in the option agreement.

A “Stock Appreciation Right” is an award with the right to receive stock or cash of an equivalent value in an amount equal to the difference between the price specified in the SAR and the prevailing market price of the Company’s common stock at the time of exercise. As with options, the per share exercise price for a SAR may not be less than 100% of the fair market value of our stock on the date of grant. The Plan prohibits the repricing of SARs. Except as otherwise provided in the Plan, SARs may not be exercised prior to the first anniversary of the date they are granted. Subject to these limitations, SARs will be exercisable at such time or times and subject to such terms and conditions as shall be determined by the Committee and set forth in the award agreement.

“Restricted Stock” is an award of common stock granted to an employee for no or nominal consideration. A recipient of a restricted stock award will have all the rights of a shareholder, including the right to vote and receive dividends, provided that such dividends will generally not vest unless and until the Restricted Stock becomes vested. In general, shares of restricted stock are subject to forfeiture if the participant does not meet certain conditions such as continued employment over a specified vesting period and/or the attainment of specified performance objectives.

“Restricted Stock Unit” is an award representing the right to receive, in cash and/or shares of common stock, subject to certain conditions such as continuing employment and/or the achievement of specified performance or other objectives.

“Performance Stock Unit” is an award of the right to receive stock or cash of an equivalent value at the end of the designated performance period upon the attainment of specified performance goals. Performance Stock Units are a type

2026 Proxy Statement 49


Proposal 4 - 2026 LTIP						T able of Contents

of award where the grant, exercise, and/or settlement of such award is contingent upon the achievement of pre-established performance goals and other terms established by the Committee.

An “Other Stock-Based Award” is any other award that may be granted under the Plan that is valued in whole or in part by reference to, or is payable in or otherwise based on, common stock.

Forfeiture of Awards

Awards may be subject to forfeiture by participants to the extent a participant violates or breaches any agreement between the participant and the Company or any Company policy or procedure, including our Code of Conduct. Awards may be subject to forfeiture if a participant is terminated for cause. Awards under the Plan are subject to mandatory repayment by a participant to the extent that the participant is or becomes subject to any Company clawback or recoupment policy, or any law or regulation that imposes mandatory recoupment.

Termination of Employment

The award agreement for each award made pursuant to the Plan will specify the terms relating to the exercise, vesting, settlement, cancellation, or forfeiture of the award upon termination of employment, based on the reason for termination. These may include terms relating to the satisfaction of performance goals and the termination of the vesting period or performance period.

Amendment or Termination of the Plan

The Board may at any time amend, discontinue, or terminate all or any part of the Plan. No amendment may be made without shareholder approval that would (a) increase the aggregate number of shares of common stock that may be issued under the Plan, (b) change the definition of employees eligible to receive awards under the Plan, or (c) otherwise materially increase the benefits to participants in the Plan. Except as required by law, the termination or any amendment of the Plan may not impair the rights of any participant without his or her consent.

Summary of Federal Income Tax Consequences

The following summarizes the consequences of the grant and acquisition of awards under the Plan for federal income tax purposes, based on management’s understanding of existing federal income tax laws. This summary is necessarily general in nature and does not purport to be complete. Also, state and local income tax consequences are not discussed and may vary from locality to locality. The exact federal income tax treatment of transactions under the Plan will vary depending upon the specific facts and circumstances involved and participants are advised to consult their personal tax advisors with regard to all consequences arising from the grant or exercise of awards and the disposition of any acquired shares.

Stock Options

Plan participants will not recognize taxable income at the time an option is granted under the Plan unless the option has readily ascertainable market value at the time of grant. The Company believes that options to be granted under the Plan will not have readily ascertainable market values; therefore, income will not be recognized by participants before the time of exercise of an option. For Nonqualified Stock Options, the difference between the fair market value of the shares at the time an option is exercised and the option price generally will be treated as ordinary income to the optionee, in which case the Company will be entitled to a deduction equal to the amount of the optionee's ordinary income.

Stock Appreciation Rights

Upon the grant of a SAR, the participant will realize no taxable income, and the Company will receive no deduction. Upon the exercise of the SAR, the value of the shares and/or cash received is generally taxable to the participant as ordinary income, and the Company generally will be entitled to a corresponding tax deduction. If the SAR is settled in shares of common stock, upon the participant’s subsequent disposition of such shares, the participant will recognize a capital gain or loss (long-term or short-term, depending on the holding period) to the extent the amount realized from the sale differs from the tax basis (i.e., the fair market value of the common stock on the exercise date).

50 MillerKnoll


T able of Contents						Proposal 4 - 2026 LTIP

Restricted Stock

Recipients of shares of restricted stock that are not transferable and are subject to substantial risk of forfeiture at the time of grant will not be subject to federal income taxes until the lapse or release of the restrictions or sale of the shares, unless the recipient files a specific election under the Code to be taxed at the time of grant. The recipient’s income and the Company’s deduction will be equal to the excess of the then fair market value (or sale price) of the shares less any purchase price. Any otherwise taxable disposition of the restricted stock after the time the restrictions lapse or are released will result in a capital gain or loss (long-term or short-term, depending on the holding period) to the extent the amount realized from the sale differs from the tax basis (i.e., the fair market value of the common stock on the date the restrictions lapse or are released). Dividends paid in cash and received by a participant prior to the time the restrictions lapse or are released will constitute ordinary income to the participant in the year paid and the Company will generally be entitled to a corresponding deduction for such dividends. Any dividends paid in stock may be treated as an award of additional restricted stock subject to the tax treatment described herein.

Restricted Stock Units

No taxable income is realized by a participant upon the grant of restricted stock unit (RSU) awards. Upon distribution of the shares subject to the award or payment of cash, the participant would recognize ordinary income based upon the fair market value of the shares at the time the stock is delivered or in the amount of cash received by the participant. The Company will be entitled to a deduction at the time and in the amount that the participant recognized ordinary income. If the RSUs are settled in whole or in part in shares, upon the participant’s subsequent disposition of the shares, the participant will recognize a capital gain or loss (long-term or short-term, depending on the holding period) to the extent the amount realized upon disposition differs from the shares’ tax basis (i.e., the fair market value of the shares on the date the participant received the shares).

Performance Stock Units

Participants are not taxed upon the grant of performance stock unit (PSU) awards. Upon receipt of the underlying shares or cash, a participant will recognize ordinary income on the amount of cash received and/or the current fair market value of stock received, and the Company will be entitled to a corresponding deduction. Upon the participant’s subsequent disposition of any shares received, the participant will recognize a capital gain or loss (long-term or short-term, depending on the holding period) to the extent the amount realized from the disposition differs from the shares’ tax basis (i.e., the fair market value of the shares on the date the participant received the shares).

Tax Deductibility Limitations

Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code generally disallows a tax deduction for compensation in excess of $1,000,000 paid to certain executive officers. As a result, compensation in excess of $1,000,000 paid to the Company's covered employees under the Plan generally will not be deductible by the Company for federal income tax purposes.

Adjustment for Certain Corporate Transactions

General Anti-Dilution Adjustments

The Plan provides for the adjustment of the terms of outstanding awards in order to preserve the proportionate interest of the holders in those awards if the number of outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock has increased or decreased or other changes in the Company’s stock occur as a result of any recapitalization, reclassification, stock split, reverse stock split, spin-off, combination of stock, exchange of stock, stock dividend, or other distributions payable in capital stock, or other similar adjustments in the Company’s common stock. If the Company is the surviving entity in any reorganization, merger, or similar transaction with one or more entities that does not result in a change of control (as defined in the Plan), any options, SARs, restricted stock, or restricted stock units will pertain to and apply to the securities to which a holder of the number of shares of common stock subject to those awards would have been entitled immediately after the transaction, with any corresponding proportionate adjustment to the per share option price or SAR price. In addition, as a result of any such transaction, performance-based awards will be adjusted to apply to the securities that a holder of the number of shares of stock subject to such performance-based awards would have been entitled to receive immediately after the transaction. The Plan also provides for the adjustment of the share limits in the Plan under these circumstances.

2026 Proxy Statement 51


Proposal 4 - 2026 LTIP						T able of Contents

Adjustments for Change in Control Transactions in Which Awards Are Assumed or the Company is the Surviving Entity

Except as otherwise provided in an award agreement, in the event of a change in control in which the Company is the surviving entity or under which outstanding awards are assumed or continued, the Plan provides for a corresponding adjustment to the outstanding awards to preserve the intrinsic value of those awards by the Company or its successor; provided those outstanding awards would be subject to accelerated vesting if, within a two-year period following a change in control, the participant’s employment is terminated without cause, the participant terminates for good reason, or the participant’s employment terminates under circumstances that entitle the participant to accelerated exercisability under any individual employment agreement with the participant.

Adjustments for Change in Control Transactions in Which Awards Are Not Assumed

Except as otherwise provided in an award agreement, upon a change in control of the Company in which the outstanding awards are not assumed or continued, awards other than performance-based awards will be deemed to be immediately vested, or the Committee, at its election, may cancel those awards and pay the value of those awards to participants. With respect to performance-based awards under any such transaction, if less than half the performance period has lapsed, those awards will be converted into shares or similar securities, assuming target performance has been achieved. If at least half of the performance period has lapsed, those performance-based awards will be converted into shares or similar securities based upon actual performance to date.

Required Vote for Approval

At least a majority of the total votes cast on the proposed Plan at the Annual Meeting, by person or by proxy, is required to approve the proposed Plan. Broker non-votes and abstentions will not be treated as votes cast on the proposal. Unless otherwise directed, the proxy holders named in the form of the proxy will vote for the approval of the proposed Plan.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The Board of Directors has adopted a written policy on related party transactions. Under that policy, with certain limited exceptions, all proposed transactions between the Company and any directors, nominees for director, executive officers or their respective affiliates are required to be reported to the Governance and Corporate Responsibility Committee.

The policy provides that certain categories of related party transactions are pre-approved, including (1) certain small transactions where the related party is not an executive officer of the other party, (2) employee compensation reported in the Company’s proxy statement or that would be reported if the employee was a named executive officer, (3) director compensation reported in the Company’s proxy statement, (4) transactions based on ownership of the Company’s common stock that are pro rata with all other shareholders, (5) transactions determined by competitive bids, and (6) transactions with terms fixed in conformity with law or governmental authority. The Governance and Corporate Responsibility Committee reviews all other proposed related party transactions. In determining whether to approve or ratify a transaction under the policy, the Governance and Corporate Responsibility Committee will take into account, among other factors it deems appropriate, (1) whether the transaction is on terms no less favorable than terms generally available to an unaffiliated third party under the same or similar circumstances, and (2) the extent of the interest in the transaction. If the transaction involves a director or a nominee for director, the Committee also considers whether the transaction will impact such individual’s status as an independent director pursuant to applicable SEC and/or Nasdaq rules.

During fiscal 2026 and through the date of this Proxy Statement, there were no related party transactions required to be disclosed pursuant to Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.

DELINQUENT SECTION 16(A) REPORTS

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our directors and executive officers, and holders who beneficially own greater than 10% of our common stock, to file certain reports of securities ownership and changes in such ownership with the SEC. Specific due dates for these reports have been established by the SEC, and the Company is required to report any known failure to file by these dates in this Proxy Statement.

To the Company’s knowledge, based solely on a review of the copies of the reports filed with the SEC and on written representations from certain reporting persons that no other reports were required, we believe all filings required by our officers, directors, and persons who own more than 10% of our outstanding common stock were timely filed for the fiscal year ended May 30, 2026, through the date of this Proxy Statement.

INFORMATION ABOUT THE ANNUAL MEETING AND VOTING

Why am I receiving these materials?

Because you were a MillerKnoll, Inc. (“we,” “us,” “our,” the “Company,” or “MillerKnoll”) shareholder on August 14, 2026 (the “Record Date”), you are invited to attend its 2026 Annual Meeting of Shareholders on October 12, 2026, at 10:30 am Eastern Daylight Time (“EDT”) (the “Annual Meeting”). This Proxy Statement and the form of proxy card explain the items of business that will be brought to a vote at the Annual Meeting, and are furnished to the shareholders of MillerKnoll, Inc., on or about August 28, 2026, in connection with the solicitation by the Board of Directors of the proxies to be used at the Annual Meeting.

What is a proxy?

A proxy is your authorization for someone else to vote your shares for you in the way you want to vote and allows you to be represented at our Annual Meeting if you are unable to attend. When you complete and submit a proxy card, use the automated telephone voting system, or use the Internet voting system, you are submitting a proxy.

What is a proxy statement?

A proxy statement is a document the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) requires us to provide you to explain the matters on which we are asking you to vote at our Annual Meeting by proxy and to disclose certain information that may be helpful to you in deciding how to vote.

Why am I receiving my proxy materials electronically instead of a paper version through the mail?

To support our ongoing commitment to sustainability, we are sending proxy materials primarily online to reduce the amount of paper used, while also reducing costs associated with mailing these materials.

On or about August 28, 2026, we mailed to our shareholders of record (other than those who previously requested electronic delivery) a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials (“Notice of Internet Availability”) containing instructions on how to access this Proxy Statement and our Annual Report online. If you received a Notice of Internet Availability by mail, you will not receive a printed copy of the proxy materials in the mail. The Notice of Internet Availability instructs you on how to electronically access and review all information contained in this Proxy Statement and the Annual Report, and it provides you with information on voting.

If you received a Notice of Internet Availability by mail and would like to receive a paper copy of our proxy materials, follow the instructions contained in the Notice of Internet Availability on how to request your materials in printed form on a one-time or an ongoing basis.

Where are the 2026 Proxy Materials available electronically?

You may view our electronic 2026 Proxy Statement and Annual Report on Form 10-K by visiting our Investor Relations’ Annual Reports website page at www.millerknoll.com/investor-relations/financials-filings/annual-report.

Who is entitled to vote?

Only shareholders of record of our common stock at the close of business on August 14, 2026, the Record Date, are entitled to vote at the 2026 Annual Meeting. Each shareholder of record has one vote for each share of common stock owned as of the Record Date, on each matter presented for a vote at the Annual Meeting.

What is the difference between a registered shareholder of record and a “street name” holder?

If your shares are registered directly in your name on the records of our transfer agent, Computershare Trust Company, N.A., then you are the registered shareholder of record concerning those shares. If your shares are held in a stock brokerage account, by a bank, or by another nominee, then the brokerage firm, bank, or other nominee is considered to be the shareholder of record concerning those shares. However, you still are considered the beneficial owner of those shares, and your shares are said to be held in “street name.” Street name holders generally cannot vote their shares directly and must instead instruct the brokerage firm, bank, or other nominee how to vote their shares. See the How do I vote my shares? section on the following page.

56 MillerKnoll

General Information						Table of Contents

How many votes do we need to hold the Annual Meeting?

To carry on the business of the meeting, we must have a quorum. This means that at least a majority of the shares that are outstanding and entitled to vote as of the Record Date must be in attendance at the Annual Meeting or by proxy. Shares are counted as in attendance at the meeting if the shareholder has taken either of the following actions:

•submitted a signed proxy card or other form of proxy (through the telephone or Internet), or

•logged into the virtual meeting using their 16-digit control number and voted electronically during the meeting.

On the Record Date, there were 68,733,063 shares of common stock issued and outstanding. Therefore, at least 34,366,532 shares need to be present at the Annual Meeting for a quorum.

What matters will be voted on at the meeting and how many votes are needed for each proposal?

We will ask you to vote on the proposals listed in the table below and consider any other matters as may properly come before the meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof:

Proposal

Board Recommendation

Votes Required for Approval

1.Elect three directors each for a term of three years

FOR

Under the Company’s majority vote standard for the election of directors (included in the Company’s Bylaws and described in more detail above), in order to be elected, a nominee must receive a greater number of votes cast “for” his or her election than the number of votes “withheld” with respect to that director’s election.

2.Approve, on an advisory basis, named executive officer compensation

FOR

Because the “say-on-pay” vote is advisory, the outcome of that vote will not be binding upon the Board of Directors or the Compensation Committee of the Board.

3.Ratify the selection of KPMG LLP as MillerKnoll, Inc.’s independent registered public accounting firm for fiscal 2027.

FOR

The ratification of the appointment of our independent registered public accounting firm requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast.

4.To approve the MillerKnoll, Inc. 2026 Long-Term Incentive Plan

FOR

At least a majority of the total votes cast is required to approve the proposed Plan.

All the proposals other than the ratification of the appointment of our independent registered public accounting firm are considered non-routine matters. Consequently, if your shares are held in “street name,” your brokerage firm, bank or other nominee cannot vote your shares on these non-routine matters unless it has received voting instructions from you.

Abstentions and broker non-votes will not be counted as votes cast but will count for purposes of determining whether or not a quorum is present. So long as a quorum is present, abstentions and broker non-votes will not affect any of the matters presented for a vote at the Annual Meeting.

Table of Contents						General Information

What happens if a nominee is unable to stand for re-election?

Appendix						Table of Contents

APPENDIX

RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP

FINANCIAL MEASURES

This Proxy Statement contains references to non-GAAP financial measures that are not in accordance with, nor an alternative to, generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and may be different from non-GAAP measures presented by other companies. These non-GAAP financial measures are not measurements of our financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as alternatives to the related GAAP measurement. These non-GAAP measurements have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Our presentation of non-GAAP measures should not be construed as an indication that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or infrequent items. We compensate for these limitations by giving equal prominence of our GAAP results.

The Company believes presenting these non-GAAP financial measures is useful for investors as it provides financial information on a more comparative basis for the periods presented by excluding items that are not representative of the ongoing operations of the Company.

Included on the following pages of this Appendix and as defined below, are reconciliations of the following non-GAAP financial measures referenced in this Proxy Statement to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP as reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal years ended May 30, 2026, and May 31, 2025:

•Organic Growth (Decline) (Company-wide and by segment) is net sales, as reported and adjusted for currency translation effects.

•Adjusted Earnings per Share - Diluted represents reported diluted earnings per share excluding the impact from amortization of purchased intangibles, integration charges, debt extinguishment charges, restructuring expenses, impairment charges, other special charges or gains, Knoll pension plan termination charges, CEO transition costs and the related tax effect of these adjustments.

•Adjusted Operating Earnings (Loss) represents reported operating earnings less integration charges, amortization of Knoll purchased intangibles, restructuring expenses, impairment charges, Knoll pension plan termination charges, and CEO transition costs.

•Adjusted Operating Expenses represents reported operating expenses excluding restructuring charges, integration charges, amortization of Knoll purchased intangibles, impairment charges, Knoll pension plan termination charges, and CEO transition costs.

•Adjusted Gross Margin represents gross margin plus restructuring and integration charges..

•Operating Earnings (Loss) represents adjusted operating earnings as a percentage of sales.

•EBITDA, As Adjusted is the Company’s earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization and plus or minus any adjustments approved by the Compensation Committee.

•Operating Earnings, As Adjusted (AOI, As Adjusted) is the Company’s net income or loss, excluding earnings attributable to noncontrolling interests and plus or minus any adjustments approved by the Compensation Committee.

62 MillerKnoll


Table of Contents						Appendix

Adjustments referenced in the reconciliations presented on the following pages are further described below and in the Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 30, 2026, as filed with the SEC:

•Amortization of Knoll purchased intangibles: Includes expenses associated with the amortization of acquisition- related intangibles acquired as part of the Knoll acquisition. The revenue generated by the associated intangible assets has not been excluded from the related non-GAAP financial measure. We exclude the impact of the amortization of Knoll purchased intangibles as such non-cash amounts were significantly impacted by the size of the Knoll acquisition. Furthermore, we believe that this adjustment enables a better comparison of our results as amortization of Knoll purchased intangibles will not recur in future periods once such intangible assets have been fully amortized. Any future acquisitions may result in the amortization of additional intangible assets. Although we exclude the amortization of Knoll purchased intangibles in these non-GAAP measures, we believe that it is important for investors to understand that such intangible assets were recorded as part of purchase accounting and contribute to revenue generation.

•Integration charges: Knoll integration-related costs include severance, asset impairment charges associated with lease and operations facility consolidation activity, and expenses related to synergy realization efforts and reorganization initiatives.

•Restructuring charges: Includes costs associated with actions involving targeted workforce reductions, facility consolidation charges, and accelerated depreciation of fixed assets.

•Impairment charges: Includes non-cash, pre-tax charges for the impairment of the Knoll and Muuto trade names as well as impairment of goodwill attributed to the Global Retail and Holly Hunt reporting units.

•Tax related items: We excluded the income tax benefit/provision effect of the tax related items from our non-GAAP measures because they are not associated with the tax expense on our ongoing operating results.

•Debt extinguishment charges: Includes expenses associated with the extinguishment of debt. We excluded these items from our non-GAAP measures because they relate to a specific transaction and are not reflective of our ongoing financial performance.

•CEO transition costs: Includes costs incurred in connection with the mutually agreed retirement of the Company's former President and Chief Executive Officer and the transition to interim CEO leadership, including severance, legal, consulting, and related professional fees.

•Knoll pension plan termination charges: Includes non-cash charges associated with the settlement and termination of pension plan obligations assumed in connection with the Knoll acquisition.

6.2 Grants. The Committee shall have the authority to grant to any Participant one or more Incentive Stock Options, Nonqualified Stock Options, or both types of Options, provided that Incentive Stock Options shall not be granted to any Nonemployee Director. To the extent that any Option does not qualify as an Incentive Stock Option (whether because of its provisions or the time or manner of its exercise or otherwise), such Option or the portion thereof which does not qualify shall constitute a separate Nonqualified Stock Option.

6.3 Incentive Stock Options. Anything in the Plan to the contrary notwithstanding, no term of this Plan relating to Incentive Stock Options shall be interpreted, amended or altered, nor shall any discretion or authority granted under the Plan be so exercised, so as to disqualify the Plan under Section 422 of the Code, or, without the consent of the Participants affected, to disqualify any Incentive Stock Option under such Section 422. An Incentive Stock Option shall not be granted to an individual who, on the date of grant, owns stock possessing more than ten percent (10%) of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company. The aggregate Fair Market Value, determined on the Award Date, of the shares of Common Stock with respect to which one or more Incentive Stock Options (or other incentive stock options within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code, under all other option plans of the Company) that are exercisable for the first time by a Participant during any calendar year shall not exceed the $100,000 limitation imposed by Section 422(d) of the Code.

6.4 Terms of Options. Options granted under the Plan shall be evidenced by Award Agreements in such form as the Committee shall, from time to time approve, which Award Agreements shall comply with and be subject to the following terms and conditions:

(a) Participant’s Agreement. Each Participant who is an Employee shall agree to remain in the continuous employ of the Company for a period of at least twelve (12) months from the Award Date or until Retirement, if Retirement occurs prior to twelve (12) months from the Award Date.

(b) Option Price. The exercise price per share of Common Stock purchasable under an Option shall be determined by the Committee at the time of grant but shall be not less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value of one (1) share of Common Stock on the Award Date.

(c) Option Term. The term of each Option shall be fixed by the Committee, but no Option shall be exercisable more than ten (10) years after the Award Date.

(d) Exercisability. Except as provided in Article 11 and Article 14, no Option shall be exercisable either in whole or in part prior to the first anniversary of the Award Date. Thereafter, an Option shall be exercisable at such time or times and subject to such terms and conditions as shall be determined by the Committee and set forth in the Award Agreement.

(e) Method of Exercise. Subject to whatever installment exercise and waiting period provisions apply under subsection (d) above, Options may be exercised in whole or in part at any time during the term of the Option by giving notice of exercise specifying the number of shares to be purchased. Such notice shall be accompanied by payment in full of the purchase price in such form as the

76 MillerKnoll


Table of Contents						Appendix

Committee may accept. If and to the extent determined by the Committee in its sole discretion at or after grant, payment in full or in part may also be made in the form of Common Stock owned by the Participant (and for which the Participant has good title free and clear of any liens and encumbrances) or Restricted Stock, or by reduction in the number of shares issuable upon such exercise based, in each case, on the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the last trading date preceding payment as determined by the Committee (without regard to any forfeiture restrictions applicable to Restricted Stock). No shares of Common Stock shall be issued until payment has been made. A Participant shall generally have the rights to dividends or other rights of a shareholder with respect to shares subject to the Option when the person exercising such Option has given written notice of exercise, has paid for such shares as provided herein, and, if requested, has given the representation described in Section 15.1 of the Plan. No dividends or dividend equivalents shall be accrued on unexercised Options. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 6.4(e), but subject to the other terms and conditions of the Plan, the Committee may, but shall not be required to, provide that an Option (other than an Incentive Stock Option) shall be deemed exercised automatically prior to the expiration or termination of the Option without any notice to or from the Participant. Upon any such automatic exercise, the exercise price and applicable withholding taxes shall, unless the Committee provides otherwise, be paid in the form of a reduction in the number of shares issuable upon such exercise.

(f) Transferability of Options. No Option may be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned, or otherwise alienated or hypothecated, other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, provided, however, the Committee may, in its discretion, authorize all or a portion of a Nonqualified Stock Option to be granted to an optionee to be on terms which permit transfer by such optionee to a Permitted Transferee, provided that (i) there may be no consideration for any such transfer (other than the receipt of or interest in a family partnership or limited liability company), (ii) the Award Agreement pursuant to which such options are granted must be approved by the Committee and must expressly provide for transferability in a manner consistent with this Section 6.4(f), and (iii) subsequent transfers of transferred Options shall be prohibited. Following transfer, any such Options shall continue to be subject to the same terms and conditions as were applicable immediately prior to transfer. The events of termination of service of Sections 6.4(g) and (h) hereof, and the tax withholding obligations of Section 15.3 shall continue to be applied with respect to the original optionee, following which the Options shall be exercisable by the Permitted Transferee only to the extent, and for the periods specified in, Sections 6(g) and (h). The Company shall not be obligated to notify Permitted Transferee(s) of the expiration or termination of any Option. Further, all Options shall be exercisable during the Participant’s lifetime only by such Participant and, in the case of a Nonqualified Stock Option, by a Permitted Transferee. The designation of a person entitled to exercise an Option after a person’s death will not be deemed a transfer.

(g) Termination of Options. Any Option that is not exercised within whichever of the exercise periods specified in Article 11 is applicable shall terminate upon expiration of such exercise period.

(h) Purchase and Settlement Provisions. The Committee may at any time offer to purchase an Option previously granted, based on such terms and conditions as the Committee shall establish and communicate to the Participant at the time such offer is made. In addition, if an Award Agreement so provides at the Award Date or is thereafter amended to so provide, the Committee may require that all or part of the shares of Common Stock to be issued with respect to the exercise of an Option, with a value not greater than the Fair Market Value of the shares that are in excess of the aggregate Option Price, take the form of Performance Shares or Restricted Stock, which shall be valued on the date of exercise on the basis of the Fair Market Value of such Performance Shares or Restricted Stock determined without regard to the deferral limitations and/or forfeiture restrictions involved.

8.1 Awards of Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units. Shares of Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units may be issued either alone or in addition to other Awards granted under the Plan. The Committee shall determine the time or times at which grants of Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units will be made, the number of shares to be awarded, the price (if any) to be paid by the Participant, the time or times within which such Awards may be subject to forfeiture, the vesting schedule and rights to acceleration thereof (a “Restriction Period”), and all other terms and conditions of the Awards. The Committee may condition the grant of Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units upon the achievement of specific business objectives, measurements of individual or business unit or Company performances, or

Table of Contents						Appendix

such other factors as the Committee may determine. The provisions of Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Unit Awards need not be the same with respect to each Participant, and such Awards to individual Participants need not be the same in subsequent years. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and except for Awards of Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units granted to Nonemployee Directors or as provided in Article 11 and Article 14, Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units that vest upon the achievement of performance goals shall not vest, in full, in less than one (1) year from the Award Date.

8.2 Awards and Certificates. A prospective Participant selected to receive a Restricted Stock Award shall not have any rights with respect to such Award unless and until such Participant has executed an Award Agreement evidencing the Award and has delivered a fully executed copy thereof to the Company, and has otherwise complied with the applicable terms and conditions of such Award. Further, such Award shall be subject to the following conditions:

(a) Acceptance. Awards under this Article 8 must be accepted within a period of thirty (30) days (or such shorter period as the Committee may specify at grant) after the Award Date, by executing an Award Agreement and by paying whatever price (if any) the Committee has designated for such shares of Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units.

(b) Legend for Restricted Stock Awards. To the extent that ownership of Restricted Stock is evidenced by a book-entry registration or a similar registration, such registration shall be notated to evidence the restrictions imposed on such Award of Restricted Stock under this Plan and the applicable Award Agreement. If the Company issues, in the name of the Participant to whom the Restricted Stock has been granted, a stock certificate in respect of such shares of Restricted Stock, such certificate shall be registered in the name of such Participant and shall bear an appropriate legend referring to the terms, conditions, and restrictions applicable to such Award, substantially in the following form:

“The transferability of this certificate and the shares of stock represented hereby are subject to the terms and conditions (including forfeiture) of the MillerKnoll, Inc. 2026 Long-Term Incentive Plan and related Award Agreement entered into between the registered owner and the Company,

dated __________. Copies of such Plan and Agreement are on file in the offices of the Company, 855 East Main Avenue, Zeeland, Michigan 49464.”

(c) Custody. The Committee may require that the stock certificates evidencing shares of Restricted Stock be held in custody by the Company until the restrictions thereon shall have lapsed and that, as a condition of any award of Restricted Stock, the Participant shall have delivered a duly signed stock power, endorsed in blank, relating to the Common Stock covered by such Award.

8.3 Rights of Holders of Restricted Stock. Unless the Committee otherwise provides in an Award Agreement, holders of Restricted Stock shall have the right to vote such shares of Restricted Stock and the right to receive any dividends declared or paid with respect to such shares of Restricted Stock. Unless the Committee otherwise provides in an Award Agreement, dividends paid on Restricted Stock which vest or are earned based upon the passage of time or the achievement of performance goals shall not vest unless such Restricted Stock becomes vested. All stock distributions, if any, received by a Participant with respect to Restricted Stock as a result of any stock split, stock dividend, combination of stock, or other similar transaction shall be subject to the vesting conditions and restrictions applicable to such Restricted Stock.

8.4 Rights of Holders of Restricted Stock Units. Holders of Restricted Stock Units shall have no rights as shareholders of the Company, including the right to receive cash or dividend payments or distributions attributable to the shares of Common Stock subject to such Restricted Stock Units, or to direct the voting of the shares of Common Stock subject to such Restricted Stock Units. The Committee may provide in an Award Agreement evidencing a grant of Restricted Stock Units that the holder of such Restricted Stock Units shall be entitled to receive, upon the Company’s payment of a cash dividend on its outstanding shares of Common Stock, credit for the dividend for each such Restricted Stock Unit which is

2026 Proxy Statement 79


Appendix						Table of Contents

equal to the per-share dividend paid on such shares of Common Stock, in the form of additional Restricted Stock Units at a price per unit equal to the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the date that such cash dividend is paid. Such dividend accruals credited in connection with Restricted Stock Units which vest or are earned based upon the passage of time or the achievement of performance goals shall not vest unless such Restricted Stock Units become vested. A holder of Restricted Stock Units shall have no rights other than those of a general unsecured creditor of the Company. Restricted Stock Units shall represent an unfunded and unsecured obligation of the Company, subject to the terms and conditions of the applicable Award Agreement.

8.5 Delivery of Shares. Upon the expiration or termination of the Restriction Period and the satisfaction of any other conditions prescribed by the Committee, the restrictions applicable to Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units settled in shares of Common Stock shall lapse, and, unless otherwise provided in the applicable Award Agreement, a book entry or direct registration or a share certificate evidencing ownership of such shares of Common Stock shall be issued, free of all such restrictions, to the Participant or such Participant’s beneficiary or estate, as the case may be.

ARTICLE 9

PERFORMANCE-BASED AWARDS

9.1 Performance-Based Awards. The Committee, at any time, and from time to time, may grant Performance-Based Awards to a Participant in such amounts and upon such terms as the Committee shall determine. Each grant of a Performance-Based Award shall have an initial value or target number of shares of Common Stock that is established by the Committee. The Committee shall establish (a) performance goals in its discretion which, depending on the extent to which they are achieved, shall determine the value and/or number of shares subject to a Performance-Based Award that will be paid out to the Participant, and (b) the “Performance Period,” which shall mean the period of time during which the performance goals must be achieved in order to determine the degree of payout after vesting with respect to any such Performance-Based Award.

9.2 Form of Payment and Timing of Performance-Based Awards. Payment of earned Performance-Based Awards shall be as determined by the Committee and as evidenced in the applicable Award Agreement. Earned Performance-Based Awards may be paid in shares of Common Stock and shall be payable, to the extent earned, at the close of the applicable Performance Period, or as soon as reasonably practicable after the Committee has determined that the performance goal or goals have been achieved. Any shares of Common Stock paid out under such Awards may be granted subject to any restrictions deemed appropriate by the Committee. No dividend payments or distributions shall be paid or accrued on Performance-Based Awards that are not yet earned or vested. The determination of the Committee with respect to the form of payout of such Awards shall be set forth in the Award Agreement.

9.3 Performance-Based Awards. The grant, exercise and/or settlement of Performance-Based Awards shall be contingent upon the achievement of pre-established performance goals and other terms set forth in this Section 9.3.

(a) Performance Goals Generally. The performance goals for Performance-Based Awards shall consist of one or more business criteria and a targeted level or levels of performance with respect to each such criteria, as specified by the Committee, consistent with this Section 9.3 (“Performance Measures”). The Committee may determine that such Awards shall be granted, exercised and/or settled upon the achievement of any single performance goal or that two (2) or more of the performance goals must be achieved as a condition to grant, exercise and/or settlement of such Awards. Performance goals may differ for Awards granted among Participants. The Committee also shall have the authority to provide for accelerated vesting of any Performance-Based Award based on the achievement of the Performance Measures specified in this Article 9.

(b) Evaluation of Performance. The Committee may provide in any Performance-Based Award that any evaluation of performance may include or exclude any of the following events that occur during a Performance Period: (a) a Change in Control; (b) a declaration and distribution of stock dividends or stock splits; (c) mergers, consolidations or reorganizations; (d) acquisitions or dispositions of material business units; (e) extraordinary, non-core, non-operating or non-recurring items; (f) infrequently occurring or extraordinary gains or losses; and (g) any restructuring.

(c) Adjustment of Awards. The Committee shall have the sole discretion to adjust Awards, either on a formula or discretionary basis, or on any combination thereof. In the event that applicable laws or regulations change to permit Committee discretion to alter the governing Performance Measures without obtaining shareholder approval of such changes, the Committee shall have sole discretion to make such changes without obtaining shareholder approval.

ARTICLE 10

OTHER STOCK-BASED AWARDS

10.1 Other Awards. Other Awards of Common Stock and other Awards that are valued in whole or in part by reference to, or are payable in or otherwise based on, Common Stock (“Other Stock-Based Awards”), may be granted either alone or in addition to other Awards under this Plan. Subject to the provisions of this Plan, the Committee shall have authority to determine the persons to whom and the time or times at which such Awards shall be made, the number of shares of Common Stock to be awarded pursuant to such awards, and all other conditions of the Awards. The Committee may also provide for the grant of Common Stock under such Awards upon the completion of a specified performance period. The provisions of Other Stock-Based Awards need not be the same with respect to each Participant and such Awards to individual Participants need not be the same in subsequent years.

10.2 Terms and Conditions. Other Stock-Based Awards made pursuant to this Article shall be set forth in an Award Agreement and shall be subject to the following terms and conditions:

(a) Nontransferability. Subject to the provisions of this Plan and the Award Agreement, shares of Common Stock subject to Awards made under this Article 10 may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged, or otherwise encumbered prior to the date on which the shares are issued, or, if later, the date on which any applicable restriction, performance or deferral period lapses.

(b) Dividends. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee at the time of Award, subject to the provisions of this Plan and the Award Agreement, the recipient of an Award under this Article 10 shall be entitled to receive on a deferred basis, dividends or other distributions with respect to the number of shares of Common Stock covered by the Award, subject to the vesting conditions of the Award.

(c) Vesting. Any Award under this Article 10 and any Common Stock covered by any such Award shall vest or be forfeited to the extent so provided in the Award Agreement, as determined by the Committee, in its sole discretion.

(d) Waiver of Limitation. In the event of the Participant’s Disability or death, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, waive in whole or in part any or all of the limitations imposed hereunder (if any) with respect to any or all of an Award under this Article 10.

(a) Options and SARs. Each Option and SAR held by the Participant shall, to the extent rights to purchase shares under such Option and/or SAR have vested at the date of such Termination of Service but shall not have been fully exercised, be exercisable, in whole or in part, at any time and within a period of three (3) months following Termination of Service, subject to prior expiration of the term of such Option and/or SAR.

(a) Options and SARs. Any Options or SARs held by a Participant as of the date of the Participant’s Disability shall become immediately vested as of such date. Each Option and SAR held by the Participant shall, to the extent rights to purchase shares under such Option and/or SAR have not been fully exercised, be exercisable in whole or in part, for a period of five (5) years following such Termination of Service, subject, however, to prior expiration according to its terms and other limitations imposed by the Plan.

The Participant’s actual number of shares subject to the Award (as prorated pursuant to the preceding sentence) shall vest, in full, at the end of the Performance Period.

11.3 Termination of Service for Retirement. Except as otherwise provided by the Committee and as set forth in the Award Agreement, upon Termination of Service by reason of Retirement, Awards under this Plan shall be treated as follows:

(a) Options and SARs. Each Option and SAR held by the Participant for a period of less than twelve (12) consecutive months after the Award Date shall be deemed vested by multiplying the number of shares subject to the Award by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of full calendar

months of employment or service subsequent to the date of the Award, and the denominator of which is twelve (12). Conditioned upon Participant’s compliance with the noncompete covenant set forth in the Award Agreement, each Option and SAR held by the Participant for a period of twelve (12) consecutive months or greater after the Award Date shall continue to vest in accordance with the stated vesting period, provided that such period shall not exceed five (5) years from the Participant’s Termination of Service. Conditioned upon Participant’s compliance with the noncompete covenant set forth in the Award Agreement, the Participant shall have the right to exercise such Option and/or SAR, to the extent vested, following the expiration of the noncompete covenant and prior to the fifth (5th) anniversary of the Participant’s Termination of Service, subject, however, to prior expiration according to its terms and other limitations imposed by the Plan.

(c) Performance-Based Awards. The number of shares subject to a Participant’s Performance-Based Award that the Participant has held for a period of less than twelve (12) consecutive months after the Award Date shall be deemed vested by multiplying the number of shares subject to that Award by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of full calendar months of employment or service that the Participant was employed by the Company or a Subsidiary, beginning on the Award Date and ending on the date of the Participant’s Termination of Service, and the denominator of which is twelve (12). Any Performance-Based Awards held by the Participant for a period of twelve (12) consecutive months or greater after the Award Date shall be deemed vested in full. If the Award is conditioned upon Participant’s compliance with a noncompete covenant set forth in the Award Agreement, the Participant’s actual number of shares subject to the Award shall vest, in full, at the end of the later of the Performance Period or the expiration of the noncompete covenant.

ARTICLE 12

TERMINATION OR AMENDMENT OF THE PLAN

The Board may at any time amend, discontinue or terminate this Plan or any part thereof (including any amendment deemed necessary to ensure that the Company may comply with any applicable regulatory requirement); provided, however, that, unless otherwise required by law, the rights of a Participant with respect to Awards granted prior to such amendment, discontinuance or termination, may not be impaired without the consent of such Participant and, provided further, without the approval of the Company’s shareholders, no amendment may be made which would (i) increase the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that may be issued under this Plan (except by operation of Article 14); (ii) change the definition of employees eligible to receive Awards under this Plan; or (iii) otherwise materially increase the benefits to Participants under the Plan. The Committee may amend the terms of any Award previously granted, prospectively or retroactively, but, subject to Article 14, no such amendment or other action by the Committee shall impair the rights of any Participant without the Participant’s consent. Awards may not be granted under the Plan after the date set forth in Section 1.3, but Awards granted prior to such date shall remain in effect or become exercisable pursuant to their respective terms and the terms of this Plan.

ARTICLE 13

UNFUNDED PLAN

This Plan is intended to constitute an “unfunded” plan for incentive and deferred compensation. With respect to any payment not yet made to a Participant by the Company, nothing contained herein shall give any such Participant any rights that are greater than those of a general creditor of the Company.

ARTICLE 14

ADJUSTMENT PROVISIONS

14.1 Antidilution. If the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock is increased or decreased or the shares of Common Stock are changed into or exchanged for a different number of shares or kind of capital stock or other securities of the Company on account of any recapitalization, reclassification, stock split, reverse stock split, spin-off, combination of stock, exchange of stock, stock dividend or other distribution payable in capital stock, or other increase or decrease in shares of Common Stock effected without receipt of consideration by the Company, the number and kinds of shares of stock for which grants of Awards may be made under the Plan, including the share limits set forth in Article 4, shall be adjusted proportionately and accordingly by the Committee so that the proportionate interest of the Participant in such Award immediately following such event shall, to the extent practicable, be the same as immediately before such event. Any such adjustment in outstanding Options or SARs shall not change the aggregate Option Price or SAR Price payable with respect to shares that are subject to the unexercised portion of such outstanding Options or SARs, as applicable, but shall include a corresponding proportionate adjustment in the per share Option Price or SAR Price, as the case may be. Notwithstanding

84 MillerKnoll


Table of Contents						Appendix

the foregoing, in the event of any distribution to the Company’s shareholders of securities of any other entity or other asset (including an extraordinary dividend, but excluding a non-extraordinary dividend, declared and paid by the Company) without receipt of consideration by the Company, the Board or the Committee shall, in such manner as the Board or the Committee deems appropriate, adjust (a) the number and kind of shares of stock subject to outstanding Awards and/or (b) the aggregate and per share Option Price of outstanding Options and the aggregate and per share SAR Price of outstanding Stock Appreciation Rights as required to reflect such distribution.

14.2 Reorganization in Which the Company is the Surviving Entity Which Does Not Constitute a Change in Control. If the Company is the surviving entity in any reorganization, merger or consolidation of the Company with one or more entities which does not constitute a Change in Control, any Option, SAR, Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Unit granted pursuant to the Plan shall pertain to and apply to the securities to which a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock subject to such Option, SAR, Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Unit would have been entitled immediately following such transaction, with a corresponding, proportionate adjustment of the per share Option Price or SAR Price so that the aggregate Option Price or SAR Price thereafter shall be the same as the aggregate Option Price or SAR Price of the shares of Common Stock remaining subject to the Option or SAR as in effect immediately prior to such transaction. Subject to the contrary language in an Award Agreement, any restrictions applicable to such Award shall apply as well to any replacement shares received by the Participant as a result of such transaction. In the event of any transaction referred to in this Section 14.2, Performance-Based Awards shall be adjusted (including any adjustment to the performance goals or Performance Measures applicable to such Awards deemed appropriate by the Committee) so as to apply to the securities that a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock subject to the Performance-Based Awards would have been entitled to receive immediately following such transaction.

In connection with a transaction under this Section 14.2 or transaction involving the acquisition by the Company of the equity interests of another enterprise, the Committee shall have the right to cause the Company to assume awards previously granted under a compensatory plan by another business entity that is a party to such transaction and to substitute Awards under the Plan for such awards. The number of shares of Common Stock available for issuance under the Plan pursuant to Section 4.1 shall be increased by the number of shares of Common Stock subject to any such assumed awards and substitute awards. Shares available for issuance under a shareholder-approved plan of a business entity that is a party to such transaction (as appropriately adjusted, if necessary, to reflect such transaction) may be used for Awards under the Plan and shall not reduce the number of Shares otherwise available for issuance under the Plan, subject to applicable rules of NASDAQ or of any stock exchange on which the Common Stock is listed.

14.3 Change in Control in Which Awards Are Not Assumed. Except as otherwise provided in the applicable Award Agreement, upon the occurrence of a Change in Control in which outstanding Awards are not being assumed or continued, the following provisions shall apply to such Awards:

(a) for Awards other than Performance-Based Awards,

(i) all outstanding Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units shall be deemed to have vested and the shares of Common Stock subject thereto shall be delivered immediately prior to the occurrence of such Change in Control, and fifteen (15) days prior to the scheduled consummation of such Change in Control, all outstanding Options and SARs shall become immediately exercisable and shall remain exercisable for a period of fifteen (15) days; or

(ii) the Committee may cancel any outstanding awards of Options, SARs, Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units and pay or deliver, or cause to be paid or delivered, to the holder thereof an amount in cash or securities having a value (as determined by the Committee acting in good faith), in the case of Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units (for shares of Common Stock subject thereto) equal to the formula or fixed price per share paid or payable to holders of shares of Common Stock pursuant to such Change in Control and, in the case of Options or SARs, equal to the

2026 Proxy Statement 85


Appendix						Table of Contents

product of the number of shares of Common Stock subject to such Options or SARs (the “Award Stock”) multiplied by the amount, if any, by which (x) the formula or fixed price per share paid or payable to holders of shares of Common Stock pursuant to such transaction exceeds (y) the Option Price or SAR Price applicable to such Award Stock.

(b) For Performance-Based Awards, if less than half of the Performance Period has lapsed, such Performance-Based Awards shall be converted into Restricted Stock or Performance Shares assuming target performance has been achieved (or into unrestricted shares if no further restrictions apply). If at least half the Performance Period has lapsed, such Performance-Based Awards shall be converted into Restricted Stock or Performance Shares based on actual performance to date (or into unrestricted shares if no further restrictions apply). If actual performance is not determinable, such Performance-Based Awards shall be converted into Restricted Stock or Performance Shares assuming target performance has been achieved, based on the discretion of the Committee (or into unrestricted shares if no further restrictions apply).

(c) Other Stock-Based Awards shall be deemed to have vested in full and pay according to the terms of the applicable Award Agreement.

With respect to the Company’s establishment of an exercise window, (a) any exercise of an Option or SAR during the fifteen (15)-day period referenced above shall be conditioned upon the consummation of the applicable Change in Control and shall be effective only immediately before the consummation thereof, and (B) upon consummation of any Change in Control, the Plan and all outstanding but unexercised Options and SARs shall terminate. The Committee shall send notice of an event that shall result in such termination to all Participants or Permitted Transferees who hold Options and SARs not later than the time at which the Company gives notice thereof to its shareholders.

14.4 Change in Control in which Awards are Assumed or the Company is the Surviving Entity. If a Change in Control occurs and the Company is the surviving entity and any adjustments necessary to preserve the intrinsic value of the Participant’s outstanding Awards have been made, or the Company’s successor at the time of the Change in Control irrevocably assumes the Company’s obligations under this Plan or replaces the Participants’ outstanding Awards with awards having substantially the same intrinsic value and having terms and conditions no less favorable to the Participant than those applicable to the Participants’ Awards immediately prior to the Change in Control, then such Awards or their replacement awards shall become immediately exercisable, in full, only if within two years after the Change in Control the Participant’s employment:

(a) is terminated without Cause;

(b) terminates with Good Reason; or

(c) terminates under circumstances that entitle the Participant to accelerated exercisability under any individual employment agreement between the Participant and the Company, a Subsidiary, or any successor thereof.

14.5 Adjustments by Committee. Any adjustments pursuant to this Article 14 will be made by the Committee, whose determination as to what adjustments will be made and the extent thereof will be final, binding, and conclusive. No fractional interest will be issued under the Plan on account of any such adjustments. Only cash payments will be made in lieu of fractional shares.

In addition to any legend required by this Plan, the certificates for such shares may include any legend which the Committee deems appropriate to reflect any restrictions on transfer.

All certificates for shares of Common Stock delivered under the Plan shall be subject to such stock transfer orders and other restrictions as the Committee may deem advisable under the rules, regulations and other requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission, any stock exchange upon which the Common Stock is then listed, any applicable federal or state securities law, and any applicable corporate law, and the Committee may cause a legend or legends to be put on any such certificates to make appropriate reference to such restrictions.

Unless otherwise prohibited by the Committee, each Participant may satisfy any such withholding tax obligation by any of the following means or by a combination of such means: (a) tendering a cash payment; (b) authorizing the Company to withhold from the shares otherwise issuable to the Participant a number of shares having a Fair Market Value as of the “Tax Date” up to the amount of the withholding tax obligation; or (c) delivering to the Company unencumbered shares owned by the Participant having a Fair Market Value, as of the Tax Date, up to the amount of the withholding tax obligation. The “Tax Date” shall be the date that the amount of tax to be withheld is determined.

15.4 No Assignment of Benefits. No Option, Award or other benefit payable under this Plan shall, except as otherwise specifically provided by law, be subject in any manner to anticipation, alienation, attachment, sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance or charge, and any attempt to anticipate, alienate, attach, sell, transfer, assign, pledge, encumber or charge, any such benefits shall be void, and any such benefit shall not in any manner be liable for or subject to the debts, contracts, liabilities, engagements or torts of any person who shall be entitled to such benefit, nor shall it be subject to attachment or legal process for or against such person.

15.8 Section 409A of the Code. The Company intends to administer this Plan in order to comply with Section 409A of the Code, or an exemption to Section 409A of the Code, with regard to Awards that constitute nonqualified deferred compensation within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code. To the extent that the Company determines that a Participant would be subject to the additional twenty percent (20%) tax imposed on certain nonqualified deferred compensation plans pursuant to Section 409A of the Code as a result of any provision of any Award granted under the Plan, such provision shall be deemed amended to the minimum extent necessary to avoid application of such additional tax. The nature of any such amendment shall be determined by the Committee.
