Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election
of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

On February 5, 2025, Superior Industries International,
Inc. (the “ Company”) awarded Michael Dorah, the Company’s Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer, a one-time
retention award, comprised of a cash bonus in the amount of $1,000,000 (the “ Retention Award”). The Retention Award is intended
to incentivize Mr. Dorah to remain as the Company’s Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer through the applicable
payment date and thereby ensure his continued employment as a key leader of the Company through the successful implementation of the Company’s
operational improvement plans.

The terms of the Retention Award are set forth
in a Retention Award Letter, dated February 5, 2025, between the Company and Mr. Dorah. Pursuant to the Retention Award Letter, the Retention
Award will be paid to Mr. Dorah in a lump-sum payment on January 31, 2026, provided that he remains employed by the Company through such
date. In addition, Mr. Dorah will receive the Retention Award upon an earlier termination of his employment by the Company without “cause”
(as defined in the Retention Award Letter).

In addition, on February 5, 2025, the Company and
its Chief Executive Officer, Majdi B. Abulaban, entered into an amendment to his Executive Employment Agreement, dated March 28, 2019
(the “ Employment Agreement”). The Employment Agreement was amended to provide that if, within two years after a change in
control (as defined in the Company’s 2018 Equity Incentive Plan), the Company terminates Mr. Abulaban’s employment without
“cause” or he resigns for “good reason” (each, as defined in the Employment Agreement), provided he satisfies
the release of claims requirement set forth in the Employment Agreement, Mr. Abulaban will be entitled to receive a payment equal to three
(3) times (increased from two (2) times, as previously provided in the Employment Agreement) the sum of his then-current annual base salary
and his target annual bonus for the fiscal year in which his employment terminates. The enhancement to Mr. Abulaban’s severance
following a change in control is intended to support ongoing retention and alignment of his interests with those
