BorgWarner’s 2023 Year in Review
BorgWarner Inc. (“BorgWarner” or the “Company”) has continued to deliver strong financial results and value to our stockholders evenin a challenging economic environment. Despite ongoing global inflation and downward pressures on the electric vehicle (“EV”)
market, BorgWarner grew its revenue by 12%, delivered adjusted operating margin and free cash flow near or above the top end of
the guidance communicated at its Investor Day in June 2023, and completed the transformative spin-off of its former Fuel Systems
and Aftermarket segments into a separate, publicly traded company. As a result, BorgWarner achieved:$14.2B

to 2027
Our vision is a clean, energy-efficient world. Charging Forward, our accelerated electrification strategy, is a product of that vision anda plan for the next decade-plus of profitable and sustainable growth. As part of this strategy, in 2021, we announced our initial
Charging Forward goals for 2025, which included: (1) profitably scaling organic growth in EVs; (2) executing mergers and acquisitions(“M&A”) that expand our EV products; and (3) optimizing our combustion portfolio through planned dispositions of $3 billion to$4 billion in annual revenue. Since 2021, we have been working toward executing on these 2025 goals. In July 2023, we successfullycompleted the tax-free spin-off of our former Fuel Systems and Aftermarket segments into a separate, publicly traded company,
PHINIA Inc. (“PHINIA”).
Building on our initial Charging Forward goals, in June 2023, we announced Charging Forward 2027, which focuses on advancing ourposition as a leader in eProducts,1 while maximizing the value of our combustion portfolio products (“Foundational Products”). We
believe our product portfolio is resilient under a wide range of EV and hybrid scenarios. Like our initial Charging Forward initiative,
Charging Forward 2027 has three key targets: (1) achieve over $10 billion in eProduct sales by 2027; (2) deliver AOM ofapproximately 7% and positive free cash flow in our eProduct portfolio by 2027; and (3) maximize the value of our Foundational
Products portfolio by maintaining double-digit adjusted operating margins and strong free cash flow conversion.

eProducts is defined as all products utilized on EVs plus those products and components that are included in hybrid powertrains whose
underlying technologies are adaptable or applicable to those used in EVs.

Our Electrification Strategy is Accelerating
Charging Forward 2027 is the latest step in BorgWarner’s journey to electrification. Since our acquisition of Delphi Technologies PLC
in 2020, BorgWarner’s commitment to electrification has accelerated.

We take a disciplined approach to our M&A activity and pursue opportunities that fit from a strategic and financial perspective. In
2023, we increased our global charging footprint with our acquisition of SSE’s Electric Vehicle Solution, Smart Grid, and Smart Energy
businesses, optimized our combustion portfolio with the spin-off of PHINIA, and added to our existing power electronics portfolio with
our acquisition of Eldor Corporation S.p.A.’s Electric Hybrid Systems business segment (“Eldor”). The SSE acquisition supports ourcontinued expansion into the direct current fast-charging market and complements our existing European and North American EV
charging footprint by adding a significant presence in China. The Eldor acquisition enhances our capabilities in engineering compact
and efficient 400V and 800V on-board chargers that are compatible with a variety of regional grid configurations.
In addition to M&A, our organic eProduct activity has intensified. Since 2021, we have invested approximately $2.2 billion on eProductresearch and development and have announced 39 eProduct awards. For 2023, we achieved more than $2 billion in eProduct sales.

Proposal 2
Approve, on an Advisory Basis, the Compensation of Our
Named Executive Officers

Our Board recommends that you
vote “FOR” this proposal.

Why Should You Vote in Favor of Our 2024 Say-on-Pay Proposal?
A strong link between pay and performance
Despite the significant market volatility and inflationary headwinds we faced in 2023, the Company performed well. As a result ofstrong sales and margin performance, we delivered results near or above the top end of the guidance for Adjusted Operating Margin
and Free Cash Flow that we communicated at our Investor Day in June 2023, which contemplated the successful completion of our
spin-off of PHINIA. We delivered AOM of 9.63% and FCF at $581 million for purposes of the Management Incentive Plan (“MIP”),
which is our cash-based, annual incentive plan for executives. As a result of this performance, the AOM portion of the MIP award
resulted in a payout of 126%, and the FCF portion of the MIP award resulted in a 200% payout. With a 50% weighting for each metric,
the result was a combined payout of 163% under the 2023 MIP.
In addition to the strong performance highlighted above, the Company also performed well on the Long-Term Incentive Plan metrics
underlying the 2021-2023 performance period, as follows: Relative Total Stockholder Return (“TSR”) for 2021-2023: The Company’s Relative TSR was at the 80th percentile of theperformance peer group, which resulted in a maximum 200% payout of TSR performance shares.
 eProduct Revenue Mix for 2021-2023: The Company’s eProduct Revenue Mix in 2023 was 14.6%, compared to a target of 12%
and a maximum of 16%. The outperformance resulted in a 2021–2023 eProduct Revenue Mix performance share payout at 165%of target.
 Cumulative FCF for 2021-2023: The Company’s Cumulative FCF was $2.016 billion, which was between the target level of$2 billion and the maximum of $2.3 billion and resulted in a 2021–2023 Cumulative FCF performance share payout at 105% oftarget.

Executive Compensation Objectives
The objectives of our executive compensation program are to: Attract and retain the best global talent Motivate our executives to perform in support of the Company’s business strategies and goals (including growth and the creationof long-term stockholder value) by taking calculated risks
 Link executives’ and stockholders’ interests through equity-based incentive plans Provide an equitable compensation package that rewards individual performance in line with overall business results

The compensation of our named executive officers (“NEOs”) is largely performance-based, with approximately 83%-90% of theirtarget direct compensation (salary and target annual and long-term incentives) at risk and based on Company performance.
We continue to refine our executive compensation program to ensure it is consistent with our short- and long-term strategies andprovides a strong link between pay and performance. Consistent with our Charging Forward 2027 strategy, which focuses on
accelerating our path toward electrification, there are two “E” metrics in our Long-Term Incentive (“LTI”) Plan. In 2021, we introduced
the eProducts revenue mix metric (the “eProducts Revenue Mix Metric”) in our 2021–2023 LTI Plan. In 2022, we included theeProducts revenue metric (the “eProducts Revenue Metric”) in our 2022-2024 LTI Plan and have maintained the same metrics for the2023-2025 LTI plan, as follows:

We regularly meet with our investors to discuss our compensation practices, seek their feedback, and respond to any feedback
shared with us. The Company’s 2022 executive compensation program received substantial stockholder support and was approved,on an advisory basis, by 92.1% of stockholders voting on the proposal at the 2023 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

At this meeting, stockholders will elect eight directors to serve a one-year term that will expire at our 2025 Annual Meeting and until
their respective successors have been duly elected and qualified.
The Board consists of eight directors.

Seven out of our eight directors are independent and provide strong oversight of our long-term

Currently, our skills matrix includes the following attributes: notable auto industry experience; experience as Chair/CEO of multinational business; backgrounds that contribute to desired diversity; legal/governance experience; international backgrounds; productor clean technology/electronics expertise; non-automotive technology expertise; manufacturing experience;
environmental/sustainability experience; cybersecurity/risk management expertise; and accounting and finance expertise. The
Corporate Governance Committee understands the value of diversity in decision making and has sought and will continue to seek
qualified women and members of minority groups as Board candidates.

Greenstein; Michael S. Hanley; Frédéric B. Lissalde; Shaun E. McAlmont; Deborah D. McWhinney;
Alexis P. Michas; Sailaja K. Shankar; and Hau N. Thai-Tang.

Board Refreshment
We routinely assess the Board’s composition to ensure we have the right mix of attributes, experiences, perspectives, qualifications,and skills to maximize our Board’s potential. We believe the Company, our employees, our stockholders, and our other stakeholders
benefit from continuity of longer-tenured directors complemented by the fresh perspectives of newer directors. Over the last six years,
our Board has undergone significant refreshment, resulting in a lower average tenure and broad diversity of backgrounds.

Corporate Governance Principles and Board Matters
Independence of the Directors
Our Board has determined that all Board members meet the independence requirements of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”),
except for Mr. Lissalde, our President and CEO. Under the Company’s Corporate Governance Guidelines (available atwww.borgwarner.com/investors/corporate-governance), a director will not be considered independent unless our Board determinesthat such director does not have a material relationship with the Company. In addition, the Company’s Corporate Governance
Guidelines provide, among other things, that: A director who is an employee, or whose immediate family
member is an executive officer, of the Company is not“independent” until three years after the end of such
employment relationship.
A director who receives, or whose immediate family member
receives, more than $120,000 per year in direct compensationfrom the Company, other than director and committee fees andpension or other forms of deferred compensation for priorservice (provided such compensation is not contingent in any
way on continued service), is not “independent” until
three years after he or she stops receiving more than$120,000 per year in such compensation.
A director who is affiliated with or employed by, or whose
immediate family member is a current partner of, the internalor external auditor of the Company, is a current employee ofsuch a firm and personally works on the Company’s audit or
was within the last three years a partner or employee of such afirm and personally worked on the Company’s audit at thattime, is not “independent” until three years after the end of
the affiliation or the employment or auditing relationship.
A director who is employed, or whose immediate family
member is employed, as an executive officer of anothercompany where any of the Company’s present executives
serve on that company’s compensation committee, is not“independent” until three years after the end of such service

A director who is an executive officer or an employee, orwhose immediate family member is an executive officer, ofa company that makes payments to, or receives payments
from, the Company for property or services in an amountthat, in any single fiscal year, exceeds the greater of$1 million, or 2% of such other company’s consolidated
gross revenues, is not “independent” until three years after
falling below such threshold.
A director who is not considered independent by relevant
statute or regulation is not “independent.”

No director nominee, director, or executive officer is related to any other director nominee, director, or executive officer (or to any
director or executive officer of any of the Company’s subsidiaries) by blood, marriage, or adoption. There are no arrangements orunderstandings between any nominee or any of our directors or executive officers or any other person pursuant to which that nominee

Election of Directors

Board Leadership Structure
Our Board currently separates the roles of Chair and Chief Executive Officer. Mr. Michas, an independent director, is Non-Executive
Chair and Mr. Lissalde is President and CEO. Our Board believes that separating the Chair and CEO positions provides the mostappropriate leadership structure for the Company at this time. Our Board further believes separation of the Chair and CEO positions
takes best synergetic advantage of the talents of two leaders and allows Mr. Lissalde to devote his full attention to focusing on his
responsibilities as CEO without the additional responsibilities of Chair. The Non-Executive Chair focuses on:The effectiveness and independence of our Board, including providing independent oversight of the Company’s management andaffairs on behalf of the Company’s stockholdersServing as the principal liaison between the Company’s management and the independent directors

Contributing to agenda planning and chairing the executive session of non-employee directors at each regularly scheduled Board
meeting

Facilitating discussion among the independent directors on key issues and concerns outside of Board meetingsConsulting with the CEO and independent directors regarding Board agenda items



Approving the scheduling of Board meetings and approving the agenda and materials for each Board meeting and executive
session of our Board’s non-employee, independent directors

Presiding over all meetings of our Board

Communicating with stockholders when appropriateOverseeing the CEO, full Board, and individual director evaluation processes with the Corporate Governance Committee

Other responsibilities that the independent directors as a whole might designate from time to time

Our Board recognizes that no single leadership model is right for all companies at all times. Our Board has reserved the discretion todetermine the most appropriate leadership structure for the Company, and our Board periodically reviews the leadership structure.

Approve, on an Advisory Basis, the Compensation of
Our Named Executive Officers
BorgWarner seeks a non-binding advisory vote from its stockholders to approve the compensation of its NEOs as described anddisclosed in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis section beginning on page 30 and the Executive Compensation Tables
section beginning on page 51 in accordance with the executive compensation disclosure rules in Item 402 of the SEC’s
Regulation S-K. Consistent with the requirements of Section 14A of the Exchange Act, the vote on this proposal is not intended toaddress any specific element of compensation but, rather, the overall compensation of our NEOs and the philosophy, policies, andpractices described in this Proxy Statement.
While this vote is advisory, and not binding on our Company, it provides valuable information to our Compensation Committee. Our
Board and the Compensation Committee value the opinions of our stockholders.
The Compensation Committee believes that its 2023 compensation decisions and our executive compensation program align theinterests of stockholders and executives by emphasizing variable, at-risk compensation largely tied to measurable performance goals
utilizing an appropriate balance of short-term and long-term objectives, while at the same time avoiding unnecessary or excessive risktaking. We maintain the highest level of oversight of our executive compensation program. Our Board, Non-Executive Chair, CEO,and Chief Human Resources Officer engage in a rigorous talent review process annually to address succession and executive
development for our CEO and other key executives. We closely monitor the compensation program and pay levels of executives fromother companies that we believe to be similar to BorgWarner in business characteristics and economics.

Recommendation
Our Board recommends a vote “FOR” the approval, by advisory vote, of the compensation of our NEOs.

The votes cast “for” this proposal must exceed the votes cast “against” this proposal for approval of the compensation of our NEOs,assuming that a quorum is present. For purposes of determining the advisory vote regarding this proposal, abstentions and broker
non-votes do not constitute a vote “for” or “against” the proposal and will be disregarded in the calculation of “votes cast.” Proxies

Executive Summary
2023 Performance Highlights
At BorgWarner, we strongly believe that pay should be linked to Company performance – even in tough times. Despite the ongoinginflationary pressures and downward pressures on the EV market we faced in 2023, the Company performed well. As a result ofstrong sales and margin performance, we delivered results near or above the top end of guidance for both Adjusted Operating Margin,
or AOM, and Free Cash Flow, or FCF, that we communicated at our Investor Day in June 2023. We delivered AOM of 9.63% and
FCF at $581 million for purposes of the Management Incentive Plan, or MIP, which is our cash-based, annual incentive plan for
executives.
In addition to strong financial results, BorgWarner accomplished important strategic objectives, including the successful completion of
the spin-off of its Fuel Systems and Aftermarket segments into a separate, publicly traded company named PHINIA Inc. (“PHINIA”),
which was part of the multi-year, initial Charging Forward strategy to accelerate its transition to electrification.
The Company also completed the acquisition of Eldor to expand its offering in high-voltage power electronics beyond the inverter,
enabling opportunities in the high-voltage box and on-board charger market and successfully integrated the SSE acquisition, which is
expected to complement the Company’s existing European and North American charging footprint by adding a presence in China.
Looking to the future, the Company successfully launched its Charging Forward 2027 strategy, which focuses on advancing its
position as a leader in eProducts, while maximizing the value of its portfolio of combustion products (“Foundational Products”).

2023 Key Compensation Decisions
Below is a summary of the key compensation decisions that the Compensation Committee made for fiscal 2023:
 Base Salary: As part of the annual strategic review of base salaries, the Compensation Committee determined the compensationof our executive management team, which we refer to as the Strategy Board, including the NEOs, and increased base salaries
effective April 1, 2023. For compensation decisions relating to executive officers other than our CEO, our Compensation
Committee considered the recommendations from our CEO. We provide details on page 41.
 Annual Incentives: From a financial performance perspective, the Company delivered AOM of 9.63%, which was above thetarget that we set under our MIP for 2023. This resulted in a payout of 126% for the AOM portion of the MIP award. For purposesof the MIP calculation, which excludes the impact of the SSE and Eldor acquisitions, the Company also generated $581 million ofFree Cash Flow. As a result of this performance, there was a 200% payout for the FCF portion of the award. With a 50%
weighting for each of the designated metrics, the combined payout was 163% under the 2023 MIP.
Based on its overall assessment of Company financial results which exceeded target performance levels, together with strong
Company-wide strategic achievement described in the Management Incentive Plan section of this CD&A, the Compensation
Committee approved the above target bonus payout of 163% for all MIP eligible participants, including the NEOs. We provide
details on pages 41-43.
 Long-Term Equity Incentives: Long-term equity incentives that we granted in 2023 consisted of performance shares (two thirdsof the total value of target long-term incentive opportunity) and restricted stock (one third of the total value of target long-term
incentive opportunity). For the 2023-2025 performance cycle, the mix of performance metrics consisted of the following:
Performance Metric

WeightingeProducts Revenue Mix

25 %eProducts Revenue

25 %Cumulative Free Cash Flow

25 %Relative Total Stockholder Return (“Relative TSR”)

25 %The Compensation Committee believes this mix: (i) places appropriate emphasis on delivering organic and inorganic growth;(ii) drives the Company to advance its position as a leader in eProducts; and (iii) creates an incentive for Free Cash Flow generationeven while investing eProducts, all of which contributes to long-term growth and stockholder value creation. We provide details about
these performance metrics on pages 44 and 45.
For the 2021-2023 performance cycle, participants could earn performance shares based on the achievement of three measures:
Relative TSR (25%), eProducts Revenue Mix (50%), and Cumulative Free Cash Flow (25%) (“Cumulative FCF”). Results for the2021-2023 performance cycle were as follows: Relative TSR Payout for 2021-2023: The Company’s Relative TSR was at the 80th percentile of the performance peer group,
which resulted in a maximum 200% payout of TSR performance shares.
 eProducts Revenue Mix Payout for 2021-2023: The Company’s eProducts Revenue Mix in 2023 was 14.6%, compared to atarget of 12% and a maximum of 16%. The outperformance resulted in a 2021-2023 eProducts Revenue Mix performance sharepayout at 165% of target.
 Cumulative FCF Payout for 2021-2023: The Company’s Cumulative FCF was $2.016 billion, which was between the target levelof $2 billion and the maximum of $2.3 billion and resulted in a 2021-2023 Cumulative FCF performance share payout at 105% oftarget.

Stockholder Engagement
Each year, we carefully consider the results of our stockholder say-on-pay vote from the preceding year. We also consider the
feedback we receive from our major stockholders during our ongoing, Board-driven, outreach and engagement efforts, which we
describe in detail on page 3.
Our say-on-pay proposal at our 2023 Annual Meeting received support from 92.1% of the votes cast. Overall, our stockholders
strongly supported our executive compensation program and its direction, including our continuous improvement efforts to tie
performance metrics more closely to our business strategy that we describe in our disclosure. We will continue to keep an open
dialogue with our stockholders to help ensure that we have a regular pulse on investor perspectives.

Leading Compensation Governance Practices
The following features of our executive compensation program demonstrate sound compensation governance and we have designed
them in the best interests of our stockholders and executives:
What We Do

What We Don’t Do

Stockholder engagement informs compensation
program

No short sales of Company stock

Significant portion of executive pay is performancebased and at-risk

No pledging of Company stock

Rigorous goal-setting process

No hedging of Company stock

Annual compensation assessment

No loans

Annual risk assessment

No gross-ups on excise tax or excessive perquisites

Stock ownership guidelines for executives
Clawback policy for recoupment of incentive
compensation under certain conditions
Double trigger change of control provisions for
restricted stock and performance shares

PHINIA Disposition
In July 2023, we completed the previously announced spin-off of our Fuel Systems and Aftermarket segments into a separate,
publicly traded company, PHINIA Inc.
In connection with the spin-off, our Compensation Committee approved an adjustment to the outstanding equity awards under our2023 Stock Incentive Plan and our 2018 Stock Incentive Plan to prevent dilution of the benefits intended under the incentive plans as
a result of the spin-off. The adjustment factor was calculated consistent with the provisions of the plans and based on typical market
practice for similar transactions. The adjustment factor, which was based on the average trading price of our stock relative to
PHINIA’s following the spin-off, increased the number of shares subject to the awards by 13%. We reflect the effect of theseadjustments on the equity awards of our NEOs in the compensation tables following this Compensation Discussion and Analysis. We
also applied the adjustment factor to the share limits under the 2023 Stock Incentive Plan.
We did not make any changes to the performance metrics or targets for our outstanding performance share awards as a result of thespin-off because we had set those metrics and targets contemplating the eventual transactions that resulted in the spin-off.
We set the targets relating to the MIP contemplating the successful completion of our spin-off of PHINIA, and the targets wereconsistent with the guidance that we communicated at our Investor Day in June 2023.
We did not make any other payments to the NEOs or any other changes to their compensation or employment arrangements as aresult of the spin-off.

What Guides Our Program
Compensation Philosophy and Objectives
Attracting, developing, and retaining a highly talented workforce – at all levels within our organization – is a top priority. We arecommitted to providing competitive compensation opportunities designed to deliver equal pay for equal work regardless of race, color,age, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender, identity/expression, national origin, disability, veteran status, or any other characteristic

As part of our regular compensation review process, our Board and senior management team regularly seek input from external
experts and independent compensation consultants. Informed in large part by the results of comprehensive analyses, we ensure that
our compensation program continues to support our business strategy, pay-for-performance philosophy, and competitive pay
practices. Through this work, we make data-driven decisions about each employee’s compensation in the context of their role at theCompany, experience, geography, and performance. When necessary, we adjust to better align pay with external market practices orinternal comparable positions.
We also strive to ensure pay equity among comparable jobs across the Company. To this end, we examine pay among similarly
situated employees who perform comparable work to identify pay disparities or other inequities (if any).
Where appropriate, we take corrective action consistent with our commitment to a diverse and inclusive culture where we pay all our
employees equitably and they have equal opportunities for success.
Management regularly reports to our Board on each of these efforts.
In addition to the above priorities, our executive compensation program aims to achieve the following objectives:
 Align the interests of our executives with the long-term interests of the business, our stockholders, and employees Motivate exceptional performance through metrics that support our long-term strategy of growth and create stockholder value Attract, develop, motivate, and retain top global talent Pay competitively across salary grades in all regions of the world Mitigate excessive risk taking
 Reflect the input of our stockholders

The Decision-Making Process
The Role of the Compensation Committee
The Compensation Committee oversees the executive compensation program for our executives, including our NEOs, and iscomprised of independent, non-employee members of the Board. The Compensation Committee works closely with an independent
consultant and management to examine the effectiveness of the Company’s executive compensation program throughout the year.
The Compensation Committee’s charter, which can be found at www.borgwarner.com/investors/corporate-governance, specifies
details of the Compensation Committee’s authority and responsibilities.
Our Compensation Committee strategically reviews our executive officers’ compensation at least annually, in addition to regular
discussions at Compensation Committee meetings held throughout the year. Reflecting our intent to pay for performance, theCompensation Committee evaluates our compensation philosophy and objectives to ensure they align with our business strategies,
competitive realities, and our Board’s determination of what is in the best interests of stockholders. The Compensation Committee
also considers feedback from our stockholders. After consideration of all these data points, the Compensation Committee determines
whether the compensation program: (i) meets these objectives, (ii) provides adequate incentives and motivation to our executive
officers, and (iii) appropriately compensates our executive officers relative to comparable officers at other companies with which wecompete for executive talent. For compensation decisions relating to executive officers other than our CEO, our Compensation
Committee considers recommendations from our CEO.

The Role of Management
The CEO submits his recommendations for the compensation of the Strategy Board, which includes the NEOs and other executives,to the Compensation Committee for its approval. The CEO does not participate in the deliberations of the Compensation Committee
regarding his own compensation. Independent members of the Board make all final determinations regarding CEO compensation.
This process: (i) ensures that the Compensation Committee routinely receives and considers management input, (ii) provides
transparency, and (iii) maintains committee oversight.

The Role of the Independent Compensation Consultant
Our Compensation Committee retained Pearl Meyer & Partners, LLC (“Pearl Meyer”) as its independent compensation consultant.
The Compensation Committee annually reviews its relationship with Pearl Meyer to ensure continued independence. The review
process includes consideration of the factors impacting independence set forth in New York Stock Exchange rules. Pearl Meyer
reports directly to the Compensation Committee and provides benchmarking data to the Corporate Governance Committee withrespect to Board compensation.
Pearl Meyer regularly participates in Compensation Committee meetings and, in collaboration with the Compensation Committee,
aids in determining the appropriate compensation program, design, levels, and peer groups for the Company.

2024 Proxy Statement | 39Compensation Discussion and Analysis

The Role of Peer Groups
Compensation Peer Group: The Compensation Committee regularly assesses the market competitiveness of the Company’s
executive compensation program based on data from a comparator peer group (called “the compensation peer group”). The
Compensation Committee reviews and determines the compensation peer group’s composition on an annual basis, considering input
from its independent compensation consultant and management. In evaluating and setting compensation, our Compensation
Committee considers several factors including individual and business performance, internal equity, retention, the degree of alignment
between the executive’s job duties and the benchmarked job description, as well as an assessment of market practices. The
benchmarking exercise is a useful tool that allows the Company to regularly review the market in which we compete for talent andprovides credibility for our compensation program with our employees and stockholders.
In determining the 2023 compensation peer group, the Compensation Committee removed Navistar International Corporation from thecompensation peer group following its acquisition by another company in 2021. The Compensation Committee did not make any otherchanges from the 2022 compensation peer group. Accordingly, the following companies comprised the 2023 compensation peergroup:
3M Company

Eaton Corporation plc

PACCAR Inc.

Adient plc

Emerson Electric Co.

Tenneco Inc.

Cummins Inc.

Lear Corporation

Textron Inc.

Dana Incorporated

Magna International Inc.

The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company

Deere & Company

Oshkosh Corporation

Dover Corporation

Performance Peer Group: For performance share grants in 2023, the Compensation Committee continued to use the Automotive
Parts & Supplier index performance peer group for purposes of measuring relative TSR. This performance peer group is more specificto the Company’s current industry.
The Compensation Committee removed Horizon Global Corporation, Meritor, Inc., and Tenneco Inc. from the performance peer groupfor 2023 after they were acquired by other companies. The following companies comprise the 2023 performance peer group:

2023 Executive Compensation Program in Detail
Base Salary
We establish executives’ base salaries by considering the scope of each executive’s responsibilities, time in position, individual
experience, internal equity, individual performance, and business performance. When considering market competitive base salaries,
we target the median level among our peer group companies, which we determine annually. We review base salaries annually andadjust as appropriate to align with market levels after considering changes in individual responsibilities, individual and businessperformance, and experience.
The Compensation Committee increased the base salary for each of our NEO’s effective April 1, 2023 as follows:

The increases were based on market data for our peer companies as well as individual and business performance and experience.

Management Incentive Plan
The MIP is our cash-based, annual incentive plan for executives and is intended to drive executive behavior to accomplish key
business strategies. The MIP plays a critical role in our continued efforts to be an employer of choice in the automotive industry as we
accelerate our penetration in EV propulsion and continue to transform the Company. For this reason, management, with the supportof the Compensation Committee, determined that all members of the senior leadership team, including the NEOs, should be on thesame compensation plan, which is directly tied to Company performance. The Compensation Committee will continue to refine the
MIP to be consistent with the Company’s strategic priorities and ensure that senior management operates as one team with the same
goals and objectives.

2023 MIP Target Award Opportunities
We express target bonus opportunities as a percentage of base salary and establish them based on the NEO’s level of responsibility
and ability to impact the Company’s overall results. The Compensation Committee also considers market data in setting target award
amounts. The 2023 target bonus opportunity for our NEOs ranged from 120% to 160% of base salary in accordance with market
median total cash compensation. NEOs receive 50% of the target opportunity for achieving threshold performance and 200% of thetarget opportunity for achieving maximum performance or above, with results in between these levels and target linearly interpolated.

2023 MIP Performance Goals and Results
Each year, the Compensation Committee establishes threshold, target, and maximum performance goals for the Company at the
beginning of the fiscal year. To establish these goals, the Compensation Committee considers the broader economic environment,
industry conditions, and the Company’s annual budget, current guidance and past performance with respect to operating earnings
and cash flow generation.

2024 Proxy Statement | 41

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

The Compensation Committee based performance under the 2023 MIP on the achievement of two pre-established financial
performance metrics: AOM and FCF. The Compensation Committee selected these metrics because delivering strong operating
income and free cash flow generation are critical to our long-term success. AOM and FCF were weighted equally and calculated anddefined as follows:

AOM%

=

Adjusted Operating Income

÷

Net Sales

Adjusted Operating Margin is defined as (a) U.S. GAAP Operating Income adjusted to eliminate the impact ofrestructuring expense; merger, acquisition, and disposition expense; intangible asset amortization expense; other net
expenses, discontinued operations; and other gains and losses not reflective of the Company’s ongoing operations,divided by (b) externally reported sales. For MIP purposes, the AOM% excludes the impact of any acquisitions thatclosed during the calendar year, which would not have been contemplated in the Company’s annual budget.

AOM%

The Compensation Committee selected AOM because it:Is one of the Company’s primary internal performance metrics, which is measured and reported monthly by every manufacturinglocation globally;
Supports the Company’s longer-term goal of sustaining its historically strong margin profile;Has a high degree of correlation to stock price valuation; andIs strongly connected to the determination of economic value.

FCF

=

FCF

Operating Cash Flow-

Capital Expenditures, including Tooling Outlays

Free Cash Flow is defined as (a) the net cash provided by operating activities minus (b) capital expenditures, including
tooling outlays, and (c) adjusted for operating cash inflows or outflows not reflective of the Company’s ongoing
operations. For MIP purposes, FCF excludes the impact of any acquisitions that closed during the calendar year, which
would not have been contemplated in the Company’s annual budget.

The Compensation Committee selected FCF because it places emphasis on driving strong cash flow performance, which supports theCompany’s ability to invest in future growth plans and to return value directly to stockholders.
The Compensation Committee set the 2023 target performance levels for AOM and FCF based on the Company’s budget after
contemplating the PHINIA spin-off, which was in line with our guidance range that we communicated at our Investor Day in June 2023
for these metrics. The target performance levels for AOM and FCF were set lower than those for 2022 as a result of reduction in AOM
and FCF anticipated from the PHINIA spin-off. The Compensation Committee set the maximum performance levels well above thehigh end of those ranges to require significant outperformance to achieve a maximum payout. The Compensation Committee also set
threshold performance levels to allow a payout for performance below the target that was consistent with the outperformance required
for a maximum payout.
The 2023 AOM and FCF performance targets and actual results were as follows:
Performance Level
Threshold(50%

Actual Results

For 2023, we delivered AOM of 9.63%, which was above target, and strong levels of Free Cash Flow at $581 million, which wasabove the maximum. As a result of this performance, the AOM portion of the award resulted in a payout of 126%. The FCF portion of
the award resulted in a 200% payout. With a 50% weighting for each of the metrics, the Company’s performance resulted in a
combined payout of 163% under the 2023 MIP as illustrated below.
A schedule reconciling AOM to Operating Income and Margin and FCF to Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities is available in
the Appendix.

2023 MIP Performance Modifier
The Compensation Committee carefully considers each element of our executive compensation program to ensure that thoseelements promote execution of our business strategy. To further BorgWarner’s mission to execute on our accelerated electrification
strategy and continue to deliver innovative and sustainable mobility solutions for the vehicle market, the Compensation Committee
added a performance modifier to the MIP plan starting in 2022. With the Performance Modifier, the Committee may apply up to plus orminus 10% of the target MIP award to modify the MIP payout that would otherwise result for all MIP participants, based on its overall
assessment of Company financial performance results and the achievement of Company-wide strategic goals. However, the payout
remains capped at 200% of target (i.e., if financial performance is at maximum performance level, then the modifier cannot increase
the award).
The Compensation Committee may apply the modifier based on progress against quantitative or qualitative targets in the following
areas:
 Environmental, Social, and Governance initiatives including Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion
 Acquisitions and dispositions, including integration
 Succession planning and talent development
 Leadership during unusual and challenging circumstances Strategic change management

The compensation committee was pleased with both the financial and non-financial performance of the Company and was satisfied
that the MIP Payout adequately reflected the achievements of the management team. As a result, the performance modifier was not
used in 2023.

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

Long-Term Equity Incentives
We believe that long-term performance is driven through an ownership culture that rewards our executives for maximizing long-term
stockholder value. Our long-term incentive plans provide participants with appropriate incentives to acquire equity interests in our
Company and align their interests with the interests of our stockholders.
The Compensation Committee considers a mix of equity vehicles when granting long-term incentive awards. For 2023, we delivered
two thirds of the total value of the target long-term incentive opportunity through performance shares and one third through restricted
stock. We use a consistent methodology based on the market median for long-term incentives to determine the target dollar amountof the long-term incentive opportunity for each executive. We grant performance share awards and restricted stock in terms of anumber of shares, and we convert the target dollar amount to a specific number of shares. We calculate this by using the averageclosing price of the Company’s common stock for all the trading days in the January immediately preceding the date of the grant.
We detail below the shares that our NEOs earned, and we reflect them in the Option Exercises and Stock Vested table on page 55.

2021-2023 Performance Share Awards Earned
For the 2021-2023 performance cycle, participants could earn performance shares based on the achievement of three measures:
Relative TSR weighted at 25%, eProducts Revenue Mix weighted at 50%, and Cumulative FCF weighted at 25%. Results for the2021-2023 performance cycle were as follows: Relative TSR Payout for 2021-2023: The Company’s Relative TSR was at the 80th percentile of the performance peer group,
which resulted in a maximum 200% payout of TSR performance shares.
 eProducts Revenue Mix Payout for 2021-2023: The Company’s eProducts Revenue Mix in 2023 was 14.6%, compared to atarget of 12% and a maximum of 16%. The outperformance resulted in a 2021-2023 eProducts Revenue Mix performance sharepayout at 165% of target.
 Cumulative FCF Payout for 2021-2023: The Company’s Cumulative FCF was $2.016 billion, which was between the target levelof $2 billion and the maximum of $2.3 billion and resulted in a 2021-2023 Cumulative FCF performance share payout at 105% oftarget.

2023-2025 Performance Share Awards
The Compensation Committee designed the performance share awards for a select group of senior executives, including the NEOs,
to provide a competitive payout at the end of a three-year performance period, with financial goals set at the beginning of eachperformance period. A new performance period begins each January 1 and ends three years later on December 31.
For the 2023-2025 performance cycle, the Compensation Committee used the following mix of performance metrics for purposes of
earning performance shares:

eProducts revenue will be subject to the following adjustments: (1) For any acquisitions completed during calendar year 2025, the full amount of 2025 eProducts revenue from theacquired company will be included in the numerator and the full amount of 2025 revenue from the acquired company will be included in the denominator (on a proforma basis), as though
the acquisition had been completed on January 1, 2025; and (2) for any dispositions completed during calendar year 2025, the full amount of 2025 revenue from the disposition will be
excluded from the numerator (if applicable) and the denominator (on a proforma basis), as though the disposition had been completed on January 1, 2025.

The Compensation Committee established this mix for the 2023-2025 performance cycle to place continued emphasis on deliveringorganic and inorganic growth to drive higher eProducts revenue and generating FCF in our core business to help fund investments in
eProducts, while maintaining a balanced focus on long-term growth and stockholder value creation. Actual award payouts for eachperformance metric for the 2023-2025 performance cycle can range between 0% and 200% of target based on performance results

Restricted Stock
Restricted stock awards incentivize and reward executives for improving long-term stock value and serve as a retention tool.
Generally, we grant restricted stock in February (however, for 2023, we made the grant in April following stockholder approval of the2023 Stock Incentive Plan) with one half of the shares that we grant vesting on the second anniversary of the grant date and theremainder of the shares that we grant vesting on the third anniversary of the grant date, in each instance provided that the recipient isstill employed by the Company.

Treatment of Equity in the Event of a Change of Control
All restricted stock and performance shares are subject to double-trigger vesting (rather than single-trigger vesting) upon a change ofcontrol. Specifically, to the extent the successor or purchaser in a change of control transaction honors or assumes on an equivalentbasis outstanding equity-based awards, these awards will not automatically be subject to accelerated exercisability, vesting, orsettlement upon the change of control. Rather, vesting will occur upon the participant’s termination of employment if he or she isterminated by the Company (or its successor) without cause or if the participant terminates for good reason (assuming the participant
has such right under an employment or other agreement) during the two-year period following the change of control.
If the successor or purchaser in the change of control transaction does not assume the awards or issue replacement awards, thenupon the date of the change of control, restricted stock will become fully vested and performance shares will vest proportionately(based on the performance period up to the change of control date compared to the original performance period of the grant), withperformance deemed to be satisfied at target.

Other Executive Compensation Practices, Policies,
and Guidelines
Stock Ownership Guidelines
To promote equity ownership and to align the interests of management and our stockholders, we have established stock ownershipguidelines that outline our expectations for our executives to hold a significant and sustained long-term personal financial interest in
the Company. The guidelines are as follows:
CEO

CFO

Business Presidents andExecutive Vice Presidents

6x base salary

3x base salary

2x base salary

We expect executives to meet the guidelines within five years after appointment as an officer. Shares counted to meet the ownershipguidelines include shares held outright in brokerage or other investment accounts and non-vested restricted shares. Officers who do
not meet their ownership guideline must hold at least 50% of any performance share awards or restricted shares that become vested
until their ownership guideline is met. Our Compensation Committee reviews the ownership level for our CEO and all other persons
covered under this guideline each year. As of January 1, 2024, each of our NEOs had met the level of ownership required or had
more time to meet the guidelines.

Clawback Policy
During 2023, our Board adopted an updated Compensation Recovery Policy governing the recovery of erroneously awarded
incentive-based compensation consistent with the requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the New York Stock
Exchange. The Compensation Recovery Policy replaced our existing clawback policy and provides that, if we are required to preparea qualifying accounting restatement, then, unless an exception applies, we will recover reasonably promptly the excess of (1) theamount of incentive-based compensation received by a person who served as a covered officer at any time during the applicable
performance period during the three completed years immediately preceding the date we are required to prepare the accounting
restatement over (2) the amount that would have been received had it been determined based on the restated financials. We adopted
the Compensation Recovery Policy on November 7, 2023, and it applies to incentive-based compensation that a covered officer
receives on or after October 2, 2023.

Short Sales, Pledging, and Hedging
Generally, our Insider Trading and Confidentiality Policy prohibits our directors and employees from engaging in any transaction
involving a put, call, or other option on BorgWarner securities, from selling any BorgWarner securities he or she does not own(i.e., “selling short”), from pledging any BorgWarner securities as collateral to secure personal loans or other obligations, and fromengaging in hedging or monetization transactions involving BorgWarner securities. The types of hedging or monetization transactions
prohibited by the policy include the use of financial instruments such as prepaid variable forwards, equity swaps, collars, andexchange funds.

Executive Benefits and Perquisites
NEOs are eligible to participate in employee benefit plans on the same basis as other employees (such as medical, dental, and visioncare plans; health care flexible spending accounts; life, accidental death and dismemberment, and disability insurance; employee
assistance programs; and a defined contribution retirement plan, including a 401(k) feature). We provide the retirement plans that we
describe on pages 55 and 56 to all employees to permit them to accumulate funds for retirement and to provide a competitive
retirement package.
Our U.S.-based executives who exceed the limits under the qualified BorgWarner Inc. Retirement Savings Plan participate in the
BorgWarner Inc. Retirement Savings Excess Benefit Plan, or Excess Plan. All our NEOs received Company contributions under the
Excess Plan in 2023. For further detail, see page 56 under the Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation section.
Executive perquisites for the U.S.-based NEOs are limited to a taxable annual perquisite allowance. The allowance is equal to$50,000 per annum for the CEO, $35,000 per annum for the CFO and $30,000 for the other NEOs. We generally do not provide tax
gross-ups on benefits or perquisites. NEOs may use Company aircraft for personal purposes in special circumstances. Any requests

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

for use of Company aircraft must be made in writing and approved by the CEO or CFO. On certain limited occasions, and consistent
with Company policy, an NEO’s spouse or other family member may accompany the NEO on a business trip in which Company
aircraft is used. The Company does not incur any additional direct operating cost in such situations because there is no incremental
cost associated with the additional traveler.
None of our NEOs participates in or has account balances in any of the Company-sponsored qualified or non-qualified defined benefit
pension plans.

Employment Agreement with CEO
As we previously disclosed, on September 9, 2022, we entered into an employment agreement (“Employment Agreement”) with
Mr. Lissalde. Under the terms of the Employment Agreement, Mr. Lissalde will remain employed by us until his retirement on
August 30, 2025 (the “Term”), unless we and Mr. Lissalde each agree to extend the Term for one or more one-year periods. If
Mr. Lissalde remains employed until the end of the Term, he will retire at such time (such date, the “Retirement Date”). Mr. Lissalde
will remain in his role as President and CEO until our Board appoints a successor President and CEO. If the Board appoints a
successor President and CEO before the end of the Term, then Mr. Lissalde will serve as a consultant to the Board and support thetransition of his duties, as reasonably requested by the successor President and CEO or by the Board from time to time, to ensure anorderly transition of such duties through the effective date of the successor’s appointment (the “Transition Date”) and through the endof the Term (the “Transition Period”).
Before the Transition Date, (1) the Compensation Committee will determine, from time to time, Mr. Lissalde’s base salary, (2) he will
be eligible to participate in our MIP at a level commensurate with his position as President and CEO, and (3) he will be eligible toreceive awards under the Company’s 2018 Stock Incentive Plan or any applicable successor plan as determined by theCompensation Committee at a level commensurate with the position of CEO and a base salary rate equal to his then current salaryrate as CEO.
During the Transition Period, Mr. Lissalde’s annual base salary will be reduced to sixty-seven percent (67%) of his annual base salary
as in effect immediately prior to the Transition Date, and he will not be entitled to participate in the MIP for any performance periods
beginning on or after the Transition Date. He will be eligible for a pro-rata MIP payment, if otherwise earned, for the performance
period in which the Transition Date occurs based on the length of time he served as President and CEO during such performance
period. During the Transition Period, Mr. Lissalde will remain eligible to receive awards under the 2018 Stock Incentive Plan (orsuccessor plan) as determined by the Compensation Committee at a level commensurate with the position of CEO and a base salaryrate equal to his most recent base salary rate as CEO.
The Employment Agreement also provides that, during the Term, Mr. Lissalde will receive reimbursement for reasonable expenses
incurred for international financial planning and advice and international tax preparation services and remain eligible to participate in
the Company’s benefit plans and receive other benefits that are provided to him as of the date he entered into the Employment
Agreement. Following the Retirement Date, Mr. Lissalde will continue to receive health care and other benefits as set forth in the
Company’s welfare benefit plans.
Mr. Lissalde’s employment may be terminated prior to the end of the Term by the Company for cause, by Mr. Lissalde for any or noreason upon providing ninety (90) days’ advance notice to the Company, or by mutual agreement of the Company and Mr. Lissalde.
Mr. Lissalde’s employment will automatically terminate upon his death or disability. In the event of any such termination, Mr. Lissalde
will be entitled to any accrued but unpaid salary and vacation, as well as reimbursement of reasonable business expenses incurredprior to the date of termination.
If Mr. Lissalde remains employed until his Retirement Date, has satisfied his obligations under the Employment Agreement, andexecutes a release of claims in favor of the Company and its affiliates, then we will treat such termination as being by reason of“Retirement” within the meaning of the 2018 Stock Incentive Plan (or successor plan) and Mr. Lissalde will: (1) vest in his restricted
stock granted within 12 months prior to the Retirement Date on a pro-rata basis, determined by dividing the number of months
Mr. Lissalde was employed from January 1 of the year in which the grant date occurred through the Retirement Date by 12, (2) vest in
his restricted stock granted more than 12 months prior to the Retirement Date on a pro-rata basis, determined by dividing the numberof months Mr. Lissalde was employed from the grant of such restricted stock through the Retirement Date and the denominator ofwhich is the number of months in the applicable restriction period, (3) vest in his performance shares granted within 12 months of the
Retirement Date, upon completion of the performance period, in the amount earned based on achievement of the applicable
performance goals, but then pro-rated, determined by dividing the number of months Mr. Lissalde was employed from January 1 of
the year in which the grant date occurred through the Retirement Date by 12, and (4) vest in his performance shares granted more
48 |Compensation Discussion and Analysis

than 12 months prior to the Retirement Date, upon completion of the performance period, in the full number of performance sharesearned, based on achievement of the applicable performance goals. The Company will also pay any pro-rated MIP bonus to which
Mr. Lissalde is entitled that has not yet been paid and will provide Mr. Lissalde with its standard repatriation benefits for senior
executive officers in connection with his relocation to France.
If a “Change of Control” as defined in the Change of Control Employment Agreement (the “COC Agreement”) between Mr. Lissalde
and the Company occurs prior to the Transition Date, then effective upon such Change of Control, the Employment Agreement willterminate automatically, and Mr. Lissalde will be entitled to the rights and benefits provided by the COC Agreement. From and after
the Transition Date, the only provisions under the COC Agreement that will apply to Mr. Lissalde if a “Change of Control” occurs on orafter the Transition Date are Sections 3 and 10 of the COC Agreement; otherwise, the Employment Agreement will continue in fullforce and effect. If on or after the Transition Date Mr. Lissalde’s restricted shares and performance shares will vest upon a change ofcontrol of the Company pursuant to the terms of the 2018 Stock Incentive Plan (or successor plan) or upon a change of control of theCompany pursuant to the COC Agreement, then the number of restricted shares and performance shares that will vest will be thegreater of (1) the number determined under the 2018 Stock Incentive Plan (or successor plan) or the COC Agreement, as applicable,or (2) the number determined under clauses (1) and (2), calculated as if the Retirement Date occurred on the date of such change ofcontrol.
In exchange for the benefits provided by the Employment Agreement, Mr. Lissalde has agreed to certain non-competition and nonsolicitation restrictions that extend for two years following the end of the Term or earlier termination of the Employment Agreement, as
well as confidentiality and non-disparagement covenants.

Change of Control Agreements and Transitional Income Plan
We have entered into COC Agreements with each of our NEOs and certain other executives. In establishing the COC Agreements,
our Board determined that it is in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders to: (i) maintain NEOs’ continued dedication in
the event of either a contemplated or actual change of control and (ii) provide three years of compensation to NEOs terminated inconnection with a change of control so as to focus their attention on executing the transaction rather than the personal uncertainties
and risks associated with such change of control.
COC Agreements: (i) do not provide for excise tax gross-up provisions, (ii) allow a portion of any benefit received in connection with achange of control to be attributable to a non-compete agreement to reduce the potential for the excise tax, and (iii) require an
executive to forego a portion of change of control payments that could otherwise trigger excise tax if such reduction would be
beneficial to the executive. See pages 57 and 58 for further details.
Each of our NEOs is eligible for severance benefits under the BorgWarner Inc. Transitional Income Plan, or TIP. We established theTIP to provide some financial protection to all U.S. salaried employees in the event that their employment is terminated for reasons
beyond their control, subject to the terms of the plan. The TIP benefit includes a lump sum payment that is based on length of service(with a maximum benefit of 26 weeks of base salary) and medical coverage if eligible. In no event would an NEO receive a payment
under both the COC Agreement and the TIP.

Compensation Risk Management
Each year, the Compensation Committee oversees a risk assessment of the Company’s executive compensation program. Based on
its most recent review, the Compensation Committee concluded that our compensation program and practices do not create risks thatare reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company. Our executive compensation program includes several
features that mitigate unnecessary risk taking, including a balance of short- and long-term incentives, with long-term incentives
comprising the majority of our executives’ target direct compensation; a mix of performance metrics on our short- and long-term
incentives; clawback provisions; and stock ownership.

Tax Deductibility of Compensation
Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 as amended generally provides that a public corporation may not deduct for tax
purposes compensation in excess of $1 million that it paid for any fiscal year to certain covered employees – generally including ourNEOs.
In determining our executive compensation for 2023, we considered the tax deductibility of compensation as well as the goals of ourcompensation program, and we retained the flexibility to provide compensation that is consistent with our goals, even if suchcompensation would not be fully tax-deductible. Because many different factors influence a well-rounded, comprehensive executive

compensation program, some of the compensation we provide to our executive officers is likely to be not fully deductible due toSection 162(m).

Compensation Committee Report
The Compensation Committee has reviewed and discussed the Compensation Discussion and Analysis required by Item 402(b) ofRegulation S-K with management, and based on such review and discussions, the Compensation Committee recommended to our
Board that the Compensation Discussion and Analysis be included in this Proxy Statement.

The values in column (g) represent the number of restricted shares of stock and/or stock units granted in 2021, 2022, and 2023 plus reinvested dividends and/or dividend equivalentsthat will vest on February 28, 2024, 2025, and 2026. The dollar value in column (h) is calculated using the closing stock price on December 31, 2023 of $35.85 per share.
The values of columns (i) and (j) are comprised of performance share grants made under the BorgWarner Inc. 2018 and 2023 Stock Incentive Plans, issued for the performance periodsof 2022-2024 and 2023-2025. Column (i) represents the maximum potential payout for all outstanding unearned total stockholder return (TSR) 2022-2024 shares, eProducts Revenue
Mix 2022-2024 and 2023-2025 shares, Cumulative Free Cash Flow 2022-2024 and 2023-2025 shares, and eProducts Revenue 2023-2025 shares, that would be paid out at the end ofeach performance period and the target potential payout for all outstanding unearned eProducts Revenue 2022-2024 shares and total stockholder return (TSR) 2023-2025 shares. The
payout levels of the shares shown at maximum levels were determined because actual performance over the most recent period was equal to or above 100% of the target level.
Column (j) represents the number of performance shares in column (i) times the closing stock price of $35.85 on December 31, 2023. Actual future payouts will depend on several
factors, including (i) the number of performance shares that are earned, as determined after the end of the performance period based on the level at which the applicable performancegoals have been achieved, as described on page 45; and (ii) the FMV of stock, as defined in the 2018 and 2023 Plans.

Regarding adjustments to shares in the event of any merger, reorganization, consolidation, recapitalization, stock dividend, stock split,
extraordinary distribution with respect to the stock, or other change in corporate structure affecting the stock, our Compensation
Committee or our Board shall make such substitution or adjustments in the aggregate number, kind and option price of shares oradjustments in the consideration receivable upon exercise as it may be necessary to avoid dilution.

Pension Benefits
None of our NEOs participate or have account balances in any of the Company-sponsored qualified or non-qualified defined benefit
pension plans. Accordingly, we have not included a Pension Benefits table.
Our NEOs are eligible to participate in our Retirement Savings Plan, or RSP, our tax-qualified defined contribution plan. This plan,
which is available to all U.S. salaried and hourly employees, allows our NEOs to take advantage of current tax-advantaged
opportunities for accumulating future retirement income. The RSP is comprised of two primary components: a Company Retirement
Account and a Savings Account with a match feature. In the Company Retirement Account, the Company contributes to theemployee’s account each pay period based on years of service and eligible pay. For the majority of employees, including our NEOs,
this ranges from 4% to 6% of compensation up to the Social Security wage base and from 8% to 11.5% of compensation above theSocial Security wage base. In the Savings Account, participants may make contributions to the plan of 1% to 70% of their eligible
earnings on a before-tax and/or after-tax basis (up to the statutorily prescribed annual limit on pre-tax contributions under the Internal
Revenue Code (“IRC”)). The Company matches 100% of the first 3% of the employee’s pre-tax contributions. Participant contributions
are held in trust as required by law. All employee contributions are 100% vested when contributed. The first 3% of compensation
contributed to the Company Retirement Account vests immediately, and any other employer contributions vest 100% after three yearsof service.

The amounts shown in this column represent benefits earned under the defined contribution Retirement Savings Excess Benefit Plan, which amounts also appear in the “All Other
Compensation” column in the 2023 Summary Compensation Table for fiscal 2023.
The amount shown in this column in excess of the sum of the amounts from the preceding columns includes $1,737,465 for Mr. Lissalde, $472,308 for Mr. Nowlan, $1,535,164 for
Mr. Fadool, $1,112,002 for Mr. Demmerle, and $653,939 for Ms. Calaway that was previously reported in the Summary Compensation Table for years prior to fiscal 2023.

The Excess Plan is an unfunded, non-qualified retirement plan, which keeps certain highly compensated U.S. employees whole withregard to Company contributions that are otherwise limited under the RSP by IRC provisions. Participation is automatic once theselimits are reached in a plan year. The contributions vest in the same manner as under the RSP. Distributions are made following aparticipant’s separation from service, with distributions attributable to amounts earned or vested before January 1, 2005 distributed
within 30 days of participant’s separation from service and amounts earned or vested after December 31, 2004 distributed in theseventh month following the month in which the participant’s separation from service occurs. No in-service withdrawals or loans areavailable.
Excess Plan balances are invested in the same investment choices that are available to the participants under the RSP. As theseplans are unfunded, no money is actually invested. Rather, a notional account is maintained which mirrors the returns of theseinvestments.

Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change of Control
The following table shows the post-employment payments that would be paid to each of our NEOs upon or following certain change ofcontrol related events. The calculations assume each NEO’s employment is terminated on December 31, 2023. For purposes of thecalculations, the closing stock price on the last business day of 2023 ($35.85) was used to determine the market value of restricted
stock and performance shares.

The amounts disclosed in the table above do not include life or disability insurance benefits or vested benefits under the qualified RSP or under the TIP, as these benefit plans areavailable to all U.S.-based salaried employees. The provisions of each plan would determine the timing and method of payments made under the above scenarios.
No amounts are shown in this column based on the assumption that the successor in a change in control transaction honors or assumes outstanding equity-based awards. Please referto page 46 for a description of the equity treatment on a change in control.
For all Named Executive Officers, includes cash severance payment based on three times the average of base salary plus bonus, prorated bonus payment based on an average of pastbonuses for year of termination, value of unvested restricted stock, value of unvested performance shares, retirement benefit based on three times the 2023 Company contributions to
the RSP, value of welfare benefits (i.e., health care, life insurance, and disability insurance coverage) for 18 months, and outplacement services. Amounts do not reflect any impact fromthe potential imposition of any excise tax.
Includes prorated payment based on an average of past bonuses for year of termination.

Change of Control Employment Agreements
We have entered into COC Agreements with each of our NEOs. The COC Agreements do not include excise tax gross-up provisions.
They also allow a portion of any benefit received in connection with a change of control to be attributable to a non-compete agreement
to reduce the potential for the excise tax.
Below is a general description of the material terms and conditions of our COC Agreements.
In the event that an NEO terminates employment for good reason, or the Company terminates an NEOs employment with theCompany without cause, within two years of a change of control or in anticipation of a change of control, the NEO is entitled to thefollowing: A lump sum cash amount equal to three times the sum of (i) his or her annual base salary and (ii) the average annual bonus forthe most recent three years
 A lump sum cash amount based on a prorated portion of the average of past bonuses for the portion of the year up to the date of
termination
 A lump sum cash amount equal to three times the Company’s retirement contributions that would have been made on his or her
behalf in the first plan year ending after termination of employment
 Continuation of medical, dental, and life insurance benefits for 18 months
 Outplacement services at a cost not to exceed $40,000
The COC Agreements also provide that, in the event of a change of control, any outstanding equity awards that are assumed or
replaced by the successor purchaser in the change of control will not become vested on an accelerated, or “single-trigger,” basis
solely as a result of the change of control. Instead, the assumed or replaced awards will continue in accordance with their terms andwill become vested on an accelerated basis only if the Company terminates the NEOs employment without cause or the NEO
terminates employment for good reason within two years after the change of control. This is referred to as “double trigger” vesting.
Any awards that are not assumed or replaced in the change of control will generally become vested upon the change of control.
Executives forego a portion of change of control payments that could otherwise trigger IRC Section 4999 excise taxes, as the tax will
not be “grossed-up” under the COC Agreement, if such reduction in change of control payments would be beneficial to the executive.
“Change of control” generally means (a) the acquisition by any party of beneficial ownership of 20% or more of either (i) the thenoutstanding shares of our common stock, or (ii) the combined voting power of our then-outstanding voting securities entitled to vote
generally in the election of our directors, (b) a change in the majority of our Board, (c) a major corporate transaction, such as a merger
or sale of substantially all of our assets, which results in a change in the majority of our Board of Directors or a majority ofstockholders, or (d) a complete liquidation or dissolution of the Company.

2024 Proxy Statement | 57

Executive Compensation Tables“Cause” generally means the willful and continued failure of the executive to perform substantially the executive’s duties or the willful
engaging by the executive in illegal conduct or gross misconduct materially injurious to us.
“Good reason” generally means the diminution of responsibilities, authority or duties, our failure to comply with compensation or
benefit provisions, transfer to a new work location more than 35 miles from the executive’s previous work location, a purported
termination of the COC Agreement by us other than in accordance with the COC Agreement, or our failure to require any successor to
us to comply with the COC Agreement.

Terminations Not Related to a Change of Control
In the event of an involuntary termination without cause not in connection with either a change of control or performance-related
issues, no additional payments are required to be made to NEOs except under the TIP, which applies to all U.S. salaried employees
or, in the case of our CEO, under the Employment Agreement. Benefits provided under the TIP include a lump sum payment of up to
six months’ base salary plus payment of healthcare, dental, and vision benefit premiums required under COBRA for six months. The
payments and other benefits provided under the Employment Agreement are summarized above under “Employment Agreement withCEO.”
In the event of termination of employment by retirement or other resignation not in connection with a change of control, no additional
payments are made to NEOs.

CEO Pay Ratio
For 2023, we estimate the ratio of our CEO’s total compensation to our median employee’s total compensation as 490 to 1.
The median employee was identified by ranking the total cash compensation of our worldwide employees—other than our CEO,certain employees excluded under a 5% “de minimis exemption” as described below and 292 employees who became our employees
during 2023 as a result of our acquisition of the Electric Hybrid Systems business segment of Eldor Corporation (“Eldor”)—who were
employed by us or our affiliates on December 31, 2023. The total number of employees included in the median employee
determination prior to the exclusion relating to the de minimis exemption was 35,115. Of these 35,115 employees, 29,108 were
employed outside of the U.S. As permitted by the SEC’s rules, we excluded a total of 1,515 employees in non-U.S. locations reflecting
1,317 employees in India and 198 employees in Thailand. Such exclusions reflected less than 5% of our total employee population.
The total number of our U.S. employees irrespective of the de minimis exemption was 6,007, the total number of our non-U.S.
employees irrespective of the de minimis exemption was 29,108 and the total number of our non-U.S. employees after application of
the de minimis exemption was 27,593. Total cash compensation included base wages, overtime pay, annual bonuses, and any cash
allowances paid to employees.
The median employee was located in Poland. Their 2023 total compensation was $39,380 and was calculated under the methodology
employed for calculating Total Compensation in the Summary Compensation Table and compared to our CEO’s 2023 compensation
to determine the ratio. For this purpose, we converted the median employee’s compensation into U.S. dollars using an exchange rate
based on 3.94 PLN to 1 USD. Our CEO’s total annual compensation, calculated on the same basis, was $19,308,195, producing a
pay ratio of 490 to 1. Given the different methodologies that various public companies use to determine an estimate of their pay ratio,
as well as differences in business models and workforce strategies, the estimated ratio reported above should not be used as a basis
for comparison between companies.

The following table details the compensation earned by each non-employee director who served on the Board in 2023. Pearl Meyer
conducts an annual review of the non-employee director compensation. Based on Pearl Meyer’s market study of peer company
compensation, no changes were made to the annual cash retainers for the non-employee directors and the Non-Executive Chair;
however, Pearl Meyer recommended, and the Board approved, an increase to the non-employee director annual equity compensationfrom $150,000 to $160,000. The compensation levels for our Board are at the 50th percentile compared to our peers. Directors whoare employees of BorgWarner are not compensated for their service on the Board:

The values in column (c) reported for 2023 represent the grant date fair market value of the restricted stock award granted on April 26, 2023. (FMV at grant date = number of restricted
shares (prior to application of the adjustment factor) times the closing stock price on April 26, 2023, of $48.19).
Aggregate number of outstanding shares of restricted stock and outstanding vested and unvested stock options at fiscal year-end only, including dividends after application of theadjustment factor.
David S. Haffner completed his service on the Board at the 2023 Annual Meeting.
Hau N. Thai-Tang joined the Board on February 8, 2023.

Annual compensation for our non-employee directors for 2023 was comprised of the following components: annual cash retainer andequity compensation consisting of restricted stock for board service and retainers for committee service. Our non-employee directors
were not granted any stock option awards and did not receive any non-equity incentive plan compensation for 2023.
In 2023, non-employee directors’ target annual cash retainer for board service was $125,000 and annual equity compensation was$160,000 worth of restricted stock. Committee members received annual retainers as follows for each committee on which they
served: $6,000 for the Corporate Governance Committee; $9,000 for the Compensation Committee, and $7,500 for the Audit
Committee. Chairs of the committees received the following additional annual retainers for their service to the committees in view of
their commitment of additional time to their oversight of the committees (unchanged from prior year): $9,000 for Corporate
Governance, $11,000 for Compensation, and $17,500 for Audit.
The Non-Executive Chair’s total compensation was targeted to be $471,000 consisting of an annual cash retainer of $311,000 and an
equity retainer of $160,000 granted in restricted stock. In addition, the Non-Executive Chair served as the Chair of the Corporate
Governance Committee through November 7, 2023, and was eligible for an additional $15,000 annual retainer during that period.
Board and standing committee meeting attendance fees are not paid. Non-employee directors are paid up to $1,000 per day for theirattendance requested by the Company at meetings or events not associated with board or committee meetings. Additional
compensation arrangements may be made if special committees are convened, though none are planned at this time. The stock
ownership expectation of non-employee directors is an amount equivalent to five times the amount of the annual cash retainer forboard service within five years of joining the Board. All of our directors met the stock ownership guidelines as of March 1, 2024 orwere appropriately progressing toward meeting them.

PROPOSAL 3

Ratification of Selection of Independent Registered
Public Accounting Firm
PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, its member firms, and their respective affiliates (collectively, “PwC”), an independent registered public
accounting firm, performed an audit of our consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 and theeffectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2023. The Audit Committee has selected PwC toserve as our independent registered public accounting firm for the 2024 fiscal year, and the Audit Committee is presenting thisselection to stockholders for ratification. Representatives of PwC will be present at the Annual Meeting to respond to stockholders’appropriate questions and will have an opportunity, if they desire, to make a statement.
If the stockholders do not ratify the engagement of PwC at the Annual Meeting, the adverse vote will be considered a direction to the
Audit Committee to consider other auditors for next year. However, because of the difficulty in making any substitution of auditors solong after the beginning of the current year, the selection for 2024 will stand unless the Audit Committee finds other good reason formaking a change.
To ratify the selection of PwC as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024, thevotes cast “for” this proposal must exceed the votes cast “against” it. For purposes of determining the vote regarding this proposal,
abstentions and broker non-votes (if any) do not constitute a vote “for” or “against” the proposal and will be disregarded in thecalculation of “votes cast.” Unless you specify otherwise in your proxy, the persons you have appointed will vote your shares “for”
ratification of the selection of PwC as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024.

Recommendation
Our Board recommends a vote “FOR” the ratification of PwC as the Independent Registered Public Accounting
Firm.

Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures
The Audit Committee has adopted procedures for pre-approving all services provided by the independent registered public accounting
firm, including the fees and terms of such services. These procedures include reviewing detailed back-up documentation. The
documentation includes a description of, and a budgeted amount for, particular categories of services that are recurring in nature andtherefore anticipated at the time that the budget is submitted. Audit Committee approval is required to exceed the pre-approved
amount for a particular category of audit services, audit-related services, or tax-services, or to engage the independent registeredpublic accounting firm for any non-audit services not included in those pre-approved amounts. For these types of pre-approval, theAudit Committee considers whether such services are consistent with the rules on auditor independence promulgated by the SEC andthe Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (the “PCAOB”). The Audit Committee also considers whether the independent
registered public accounting firm is best positioned to provide the most effective and efficient service, based on such reasons as theauditor’s familiarity with the Company’s business, people, culture, accounting systems, risk profile, and whether the services enhance
the Company’s ability to manage or control risks and improve audit quality. The Audit Committee may form, and delegate preapproval authority to, subcommittees consisting of one or more members of the Audit Committee, and such subcommittees must
report any pre-approval decisions to the Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting. All services provided by the independent
registered public accounting firm in 2023 were pre-approved by the Audit Committee.

Ratification of Selection of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

Report of the BorgWarner Inc. Audit Committee
Management of the Company is responsible for the preparation, presentation, and integrity of the Company’s consolidated financial
statements and for the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting. Management and the Company’s internal auditing
department are responsible for maintaining its accounting and financial reporting principles and internal controls and procedures
designed to maintain compliance with accounting standards and applicable laws and regulations. PwC was the independent
registered public accounting firm for the Company in 2023 and was responsible for performing independent audits of the Company’s
consolidated financial statements and of the design and effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, and expressing an
opinion on (1) the conformity of the financial statements with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America(“GAAP”) and (2) the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting based on criteria established in Internal ControlIntegrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). The Audit
Committee is directly responsible for the selection, appointment, compensation, retention, and oversight of the independent registeredpublic accounting firm. In conjunction with the mandated rotation of the independent registered public accounting firm’s lead
engagement partner, the Audit Committee and its Chair are involved in the selection of PwC’s new lead engagement partner.
In the performance of its oversight function, the Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed with management and PwC the audited
consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023. The Audit Committee also has discussed with PwC thematters required to be discussed by the PCAOB Auditing Standard No. 1301 “Communications with Audit Committees.” The Audit
Committee received from PwC the written disclosures and the letter required by applicable standards of the PCAOB regarding theindependent registered accountant’s communications with the Audit Committee concerning independence and has discussed with
PwC their independence. The Audit Committee has concluded that PwC’s provision of audit and non-audit services to the Company iscompatible with their independence.
The Audit Committee discussed with PwC the overall scope and plans for their audit. The Audit Committee met with PwC, with andwithout management present, to discuss the results of their audits, the evaluations of the Company’s internal controls, and the overall
quality of the Company’s financial reporting. In addition, the Audit Committee provided guidance and oversight to the internal audit
function, including the audit plan, and results of internal audit activity. The Vice President of Internal Audit has direct access to the
Audit Committee to discuss any matters desired, and the Vice President of Internal Audit presented an update of internal audit activity
at each regularly scheduled Audit Committee meeting.
The members of the Audit Committee are not full-time employees of the Company and are not performing the functions of auditors or
accountants. It is not the duty or responsibility of the Audit Committee or its members to conduct “field work” or other types of auditingor accounting reviews or procedures or to set auditor independence standards. Members of the Audit Committee necessarily rely on
the information provided to them by management and the independent registered public accounting firm. Accordingly, the Audit
Committee’s considerations and discussions referred to above do not assure that the audit of the Company’s financial statements has
been carried out in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, that the financial statements are presented in accordancewith GAAP or that the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm is “independent.”
Based upon the reports and discussions described in this report, and subject to the limitations on the role and responsibilities of the
Audit Committee that are described above and in the Audit Committee’s charter, the Audit Committee recommended to our Board thatthe audited consolidated financial statements of the Company be included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year
ended December 31, 2023, for filing with the SEC. PwC has been retained as the Company’s independent registered public
accounting firm continuously since their initial engagement in December 2008 for the audit of the 2009 financial statements. The
members of the Audit Committee and our Board recommend the continued retention of PwC to serve as the Company’s independent
registered public accounting firm for 2024.

Other Information

If you properly sign and return your signed proxy card, or vote by telephone, or by the internet before the Annual Meeting, we will voteyour shares as you direct. Any proxy returned without specification as to any matter will be voted as to each proposal in accordancewith the recommendation of our Board.
If you hold your stock in “street name”, you may change or revoke your voting instructions by following the specific directions provided
to you by your bank or broker. If you are a stockholder of record, you may change or revoke your vote at any time before the vote istaken by delivering a written notice of revocation to the Secretary of the Company or by submitting another vote on or before April 24,
2024 (including a vote in person at the Annual Meeting). For all methods of voting, your last vote cast will supersede all your previous
votes.
The election inspectors will tabulate the votes cast prior to the meeting and at the meeting to determine whether a quorum is present.
The presence in person or by proxy of the holders of a majority of common stock will constitute a quorum. A quorum is necessary totransact business at the Annual Meeting. Shares of common stock represented by proxies that reflect abstentions or “broker nonvotes” (i.e., shares held by a broker or nominee that are represented at the Annual Meeting, but with respect to which such broker or
nominee is not empowered to vote on a particular proposal) will be counted as present and entitled to vote for purposes ofdetermining the presence of a quorum.

Required Vote
With respect to Proposal 1, our By-laws provide that a director nominee will be elected in an uncontested election only if he or she
receives a majority of the votes cast with respect to his or her election (that is, the number of shares voted “for” a director nomineemust exceed the number of votes cast “against” that nominee). Each of our director nominees is currently serving on our Board. If anominee who is currently serving as a director is not re-elected, Delaware law provides that the director would continue to serve on
our Board as a “holdover director.” Under our By-laws and Corporate Governance Guidelines, each director submits an advance,
contingent, and irrevocable resignation that our Board may accept if stockholders do not re-elect the director. In that situation, ourCorporate Governance Committee would make a recommendation to our Board about whether to accept or reject the resignation orwhether to take other action. Our Board would act on the Corporate Governance Committee’s recommendation and publicly disclose
its decision and the rationale behind it within 90 days from the date that the election results were certified.
If you hold your stock in street name, your brokerage firm or other nominee may not vote your shares with respect to the election of
directors without specific instructions from you as to how to vote with respect to the election of each of the eight nominees for director.
These are called broker non-votes. Abstentions and broker non-votes represented by submitted proxies will not be taken into accountin determining the outcome of the election of directors.
Each of Proposal 2 (the advisory vote on executive compensation) and Proposal 3 (stockholder ratification of the selection of ourauditors) requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast to be approved.
Proposal 2 is an advisory vote. Even though your vote with respect to Proposal 2 is advisory and therefore will not be binding on the
Company, the Compensation Committee will review the voting results and take them into consideration when making future decisions
regarding executive compensation.
We expect that only Proposal 3 will be considered “routine” under the rules of the NYSE. Therefore, your brokerage firm or othernominee may not vote your shares with respect to Proposals 1 or 2 without specific instructions from you as to how to vote. As to
Proposal 3, however, we expect that your brokerage firm or other nominee may vote your shares without specific instructions fromyou as to how to vote.

Householding Information
We have adopted a procedure called “householding,” which has been approved by the SEC. Under this procedure, a single copy of
our annual report to stockholders, our Proxy Statement, or our Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials, as applicable, will besent to any household at which two or more stockholders reside, unless one of the stockholders at that address notifies us that theywish to receive individual copies. This procedure reduces our printing costs and fees. Stockholders who participate in householding
will continue to receive separate proxy cards. Householding will not affect dividend check mailings, if any, in any way.
We will deliver promptly upon written or oral request a separate copy of our annual report to stockholders, our Proxy Statement, or our
Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials, as applicable, to any stockholder at a shared address to which a single copy of those
documents was delivered. If you share an address with another stockholder and you wish to receive a separate copy of any of those
documents, you may inform us of your wish by contacting Investor Relations, 3850 Hamlin Road, Auburn Hills, Michigan 48326
68 |Other Information(telephone: 1-248-754-9200). Similarly, if you share an address with another stockholder that is receiving multiple copies and wish torequest that the number of copies of those documents being delivered to that address be reduced to a single copy, you may inform usof your wish by contacting Investor Relations at the above address and telephone number.

Expenses of Solicitation
The cost of solicitation of proxies will be borne by the Company. In addition to solicitation of proxies through the internet and by use of
the mails, proxies may be solicited by directors, officers, and regularly engaged employees of the Company. None of these directors,
officers, or employees will receive any extra compensation or will enter into any contract or arrangement for doing so. We have also
retained Alliance Advisors L.L.C. to assist us in soliciting proxies for a fee of $16,000, plus reasonable out-of-pocket expenses.
Brokers, nominees, and other similar record holders will be requested to forward solicitation material and will be reimbursed by theCompany upon request for their reasonable out-of-pocket expenses.

By- laws to ensure that all the specific requirements of such notice are met. In addition, stockholders who intend to solicit proxies insupport of director nominees other than the Company’s nominees must also comply with the additional requirements of SEC
Rule 14a-19(b).

We have a proxy access right in our By-laws that permits a stockholder, or a group of up to 25 stockholders, owning continuously forat least three years shares of our Company representing an aggregate of at least 3% of the voting power entitled to vote in theelection of directors, to nominate and include in our proxy materials director nominees constituting up to 20% of our Board, provided
