| ✓ | Our Neighbors — We believe our success is intrinsically linked to our responsibility towards the planet, our employees, customers, communities, and other stakeholders we serve, and the values that underpin our corporate culture. In 2024, we launched a charitable contributions policy that aims to promote STEM education, health research, crisis response, and other efforts that support our local communities. Together with our employees and their families, Vertiv supported various organizations and activities around the world by providing volunteer services or monetary donations. Examples include Pelotonia, Columbus Crew STEM Day, NC4K Kick Childhood Cancer, Brisbane’s annual Pancare Foundation fundraiser, and various disaster relief efforts. |

| ✓ | Our People — As further described in the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” below, our Compensation Committee demonstrated strong leadership by recognizing and rewarding our management team’s strong performance in delivering transformative results by paying above target bonuses, generally, to our NEOs for 2024 and to eligible non-executive employees. These bonuses were paid in recognition of company and individual performance results, and are in furtherance of our pay for performance culture and in an effort to maximize the retention of our employees who helped us implement and deliver strong results against our strategic framework in 2024. We recognize that our employees are critical to achieving our strategic priorities and business objectives, and investing in them is a key component to our success. |

| We provide development and training programs for our employees, including new product training for our sales and services organizations, “Leading@Vertiv” for our management level employees, and “MyFirst90Days” for newly hired employees as key human capital measures and objectives. Additionally, our salaried and services employees participate in our comprehensive annual performance review process meant to encourage direct conversation where candid feedback can be shared to help our employees develop, achieve their career goals, and drive our high-performance culture. |

| Further, we offer leadership development programs for employees at the early career levels in finance, sales, services and engineering and customized programs for target populations to further develop their skills, and specialized partnership programs with local universities that lead to obtaining bachelor’s and/or master’s degrees in technology. |
