**Explanatory Note**

This Current Report on Form 8-K/A (this "<u>Amendment</u>") is being filed as an amendment to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed on March 10, 2023 (the "<u>Original 8-K</u>") by Adient plc ("<u>Adient</u>"). The sole purpose of this Amendment is to disclose Adient's decision, following its 2023 Annual General Meeting of Shareholders held on March 7, 2023 (the "<u>2023 Annual General Meeting</u>"), as to how frequently Adient will conduct future advisory votes on named executive compensation. This Amendment does not otherwise amend the Original 8-K.

**Item 5.07. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.**

The Board will reevaluate this determination after the next advisory vote on the frequency of named executive officer compensation, which is expected to be held at Adient's 2029 Annual General Meeting of Shareholders.
