## Dear Fellow Stockholder
On behalf of Zebra Technologies Corporation's Board of Directors, we would like to thank you for your continued investment in Zebra and cordially invite you to attend the 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders on Tuesday, May 19, 2026. Our Annual Meeting will be conducted virtually via live webcast at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/ZBRA2026.

In 2025, the Board remained focused on providing effective oversight of Company strategy and execution. We are excited about the secular trends shaping our long-term growth opportunities across our end markets, including labor and resource constraints, expanding track and trace requirements, rising consumer expectations, and rapid advancements in AI. Zebra's customers rely on our solutions to advance their business-critical workflows, and we are uniquely positioned to address the need for intelligent operations with our market-leading portfolio.

The Board seeks to have a mix of expertise, tenure, and backgrounds to support Company strategy and drive stockholder value. We continue to prioritize thoughtful refreshment and have added five independent directors since 2020, deepening the Board's expertise to support effective oversight of Zebra's long-term strategic objectives. Most recently, in July 2025, we welcomed Mary McDowell who brings more than three decades of experience leading global technology organizations through meaningful business and technology transformations. We have also continued our practice of refreshing committee

membership and leadership to further align director expertise with evolving oversight responsibilities, most recently through the appointment of Kenneth Miller as Chair of the Audit Committee in March 2026.

A key component of our responsibilities is providing robust and effective oversight of risk, while monitoring the evolving landscape. Our highly engaged directors are actively involved in Zebra's comprehensive risk oversight framework, with committees regularly reporting to the full Board on their respective oversight roles. We are committed to ensuring appropriate oversight of both current and emerging risks to ensure that Zebra can leverage innovation while managing risks effectively.

We value ongoing dialogue with our stockholders and continued our practice of proactive engagement throughout the past year. During these meetings, investors shared perspectives on a variety of topics, including strategy, Board composition, governance, compensation, and sustainability practices. Feedback from these discussions is shared with the Board and relevant committees and has informed updates to our practices in recent years.

Broad-based stock compensation remains a critical component of our compensation philosophy, aligning leadership with stockholder interests and supporting talent attraction, development, and retention. This year, the Board has approved and recommends that stockholders approve our 2026 Long-Term Incentive Plan. This is our first such request since 2018, reflecting our

prudent and thoughtful approach to equity usage.

We believe Zebra is well positioned to deliver innovative solutions for our customers and long-term stockholder value as our customers automate their operations and adopt data-driven AI solutions.

Thank you to our stockholders, employees, customers, and partners for your continued support and your contributions to Zebra.

Sincerely,

![Graphic](zbra-20260519xdef14a_a014.jpg)

**Lead Independent Director**

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

Zebra is a global leader in digitizing and automating workflows to deliver intelligent operations through our innovative portfolio of Connected Frontline and Asset Visibility & Automation solutions. Organizations globally across retail, manufacturing, transportation, logistics, healthcare, and other industries rely on our 55+ year track record, approximately 10,700 employees, and strong partner network to solve their biggest challenges. We are well positioned to capitalize on the long-term growth opportunities across our end markets supported by secular trends including labor and resource constraints, track and trace requirements, increased consumer expectations, and advancements in AI.

In 2025, our team delivered solid financial results in a dynamic environment. We achieved broad-based sales growth across all global regions and vertical end markets, and strong free cash flow. We expanded our capabilities and addressable market through the acquisition of Elo Touch, a leader in touchscreen technology, point-of-sale systems, payments, and self-service solutions,

elevating our strategic positioning across retail, hospitality, quick-serve restaurants, healthcare and manufacturing. We also exited our robotics automation solutions business to prioritize key growth areas including RFID, machine vision, and AI-powered solutions, while returning nearly $600 million of capital to stockholders through share repurchases. Looking ahead, we are excited about the opportunities for our business and remain focused on driving long-term value for our stockholders.

At the 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, we will vote on the election of four Class III directors, the approval of the 2026 Long-Term Incentive Plan, and the ratification of the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as Zebra's independent registered accounting firm. We will also conduct a non-binding advisory vote to approve the compensation of Zebra's named executive officers. It is important that your shares are represented and voted. I encourage you to read our 2026 Proxy Statement, our 2025 Annual Report, and the other proxy materials, and then follow the voting instructions contained therein.

Stockholders have several opportunities to submit questions for the Annual Meeting. Questions may be submitted before the Annual Meeting by logging into www.proxyvote.com using your control number, or shortly before and during the Annual Meeting by logging onto the Annual Meeting's website at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/ZBRA2026.

Thank you for your continued investment and support of Zebra.

Sincerely,

Insights and feedback from Zebra's stockholders are important elements of the decision-making processes for both the Board and management.

Proxy Summary

**2025 Compensation Mix**

Our NEOs are responsible for driving the Company's achievement of its long-term strategic goals, and their compensation is weighted toward rewarding long-term value creation for stockholders.

Our emphasis on incentivizing the creation of long-term stockholder value is illustrated in the following charts, which show that long-term incentive compensation accounted for the largest percentage of the NEOs overall target compensation in 2025. Additionally, most of the NEOs' compensation — consisting of target long-term and target short-term incentive compensation combined — is performance-based or "at risk."

Stock-based incentive compensation is integral to Zebra's compensation program because it links employee interests with stockholder interests throughout Zebra and motivates participants to act as owners of the business and focus on its long-term success. Such compensation also advances the interests of Zebra and its stockholders by rewarding personnel for their long-term contributions to Zebra's financial success and motivating them to continue to make such contributions in the future.

The Board and the Compensation and Culture Committee have approved, and recommended that stockholders approve, the Zebra Technologies Corporation 2026 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the "LTIP"). The Board and the Compensation and Culture Committee believe that stockholder approval of the LTIP is in the best interests of Zebra because the LTIP will allow Zebra to continue to link long-term incentive compensation to Zebra's financial performance and will continue to enable Zebra to attract, retain, motivate and reward key personnel. If approved by stockholders, the LTIP will replace the Zebra Technologies Corporation 2018 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the "2018 Plan"), and no additional grants will be made under the 2018 Plan, except that the 2018 Plan would remain in effect with respect to outstanding awards under the 2018 Plan until those awards have been exercised, settled or otherwise terminated.

In February 2026, the Audit Committee appointed Ernst & Young LLP to serve as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026. The Audit Committee is directly involved in the annual review and engagement of Ernst & Young LLP to ensure continuing audit independence. Based on the Audit Committee's assessment, the Board of Directors and the Audit Committee believe the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP is in the best interest of the Company and its stockholders.

Proposal 1 Election of Directors

![Graphic](zbra-20260519xdef14a_a104.jpg)

**Proposal 1**

## Election of Directors
The Board of Directors currently consists of eleven directors. Nine of Zebra's directors are independent under Nasdaq listing requirements; our two non-independent (or affiliated) directors are the Chair of the Board Anders Gustafsson (who served as Zebra's CEO until March 2023) and the Chief Executive Officer William J. Burns. The Board, on the recommendation of the Nominating and Governance Committee, has nominated William J. Burns, Linda M. Connly, Anders Gustafsson, and Janice M. Roberts to stand for election at the 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. Each director nominee currently serves as a director of Zebra.

Our Board is divided into three classes of directors with staggered three-year terms. Every year stockholders elect one class of directors. The Board recommends that stockholders re-elect the four Class III director nominees whose terms expire this year. If elected, Mr. Burns, Ms. Connly, Mr. Gustafsson, and Ms. Roberts will serve for a three-year term expiring at the 2029 Annual Meeting and until their successors are elected and qualified.

Each of the director nominees has consented to stand for election and to serve if elected. However, if at the time of the Annual Meeting any nominee is unable or declines to serve, the individuals named in this Proxy Statement will, at the direction of the Board, either vote for the substitute nominee or nominees recommended by the Board, or vote to allow the vacancy to remain open until filled by the Board.

Proposal 1 Election of Directors

**Board Composition**

Zebra's Board of Directors is composed of eleven highly qualified directors whose experience, skillsets and tenure complement their fellow directors to create a balanced Board with a range of viewpoints and deep expertise. In addition to the personal characteristics that the Nominating and Governance Committee believes are necessary for all directors, which are described in Selecting Nominees for the Board on page 26, the below Director Skills matrix highlights certain skillsets of our director nominees and continuing directors that the Nominating and Governance Committee believes are necessary for the Board to effectively provide oversight and support management's execution of our long-term strategic goals. The director nominees and continuing directors have a variety of skills developed through a wide range of executive and professional experience as well as advisory experience or educational training. The Nominating and Governance Committee does not assign specific weights to any of these skills, nor does the Director Skills matrix reflect all of the attributes possessed by any one director or the Board as a whole.

Board Effectiveness

## Board Effectiveness
Selecting Nominees for the Board

#### How We Find Director Candidates
The Nominating and Governance Committee is responsible for identifying candidates who are qualified to serve as directors and for recommending nominees to the Board. The Nominating and Governance Committee relies on several sources to identify director candidates, including referrals from current Board members and management, suggestions from stockholders, individual self-nominations, search firms, and organizations that develop board-ready candidates.

Consideration of director candidates involves a robust diligence process, including a series of internal discussions, review of the candidates' qualifications and interviews with promising candidates. Candidates from all sources are evaluated in the same way and are subject to the same standards.

#### What We Look for in Director Candidates
The Board of Directors is committed to ensuring that it is comprised of directors who collectively provide a breadth of experience, knowledge and skillsets to represent the interests of stockholders. The Nominating and Governance Committee establishes and periodically reviews the criteria for Board membership. Candidates must exhibit certain required characteristics, such as: sound judgment and an even temperament; high ethical standards; and a healthy view of the relative responsibilities of Board members and management. In addition, Board members should be independent thinkers, articulate and intelligent, and be able to commit sufficient time and attention to Zebra's business. The Nominating and Governance Committee has identified several skillsets that it believes are necessary for the Board to effectively represent stockholder interests, provide oversight and support management's execution of our long-term strategic goals, which are discussed in Board Composition on page 25. The Nominating and Governance Committee will also take into account the independence of a director candidate. The Nominating and Governance Committee continues to monitor and identify new key considerations in evaluating which additional skills and experiences may benefit the business as Zebra and market practices evolve.

#### Nomination of Current Directors
Each year the Nominating and Governance Committee reviews the performance of current directors. When deciding whether to nominate a current director for re-election, the Nominating and Governance Committee will confirm that the director embodies the characteristics described above, but also will consider certain additional relevant information, such as whether the director:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● represents all stockholder interests in deliberations before the Board and its committees;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● attends meetings regularly;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● keeps abreast of Zebra's business and strategy, and the industry in general;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● prepares effectively for meetings with Board members and senior management;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● communicates effectively at Board and committee meetings and with senior management;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● supports the deliberative process as a team member (e.g., is courteous, respectful and constructive);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● challenges the Board and senior management to set and achieve goals; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● possesses special characteristics that contribute to effectiveness as a Board member.

The Nominating and Governance Committee typically recommends a slate of director nominees for the Board's approval at its first quarterly meeting of the year.

#### Other Considerations
The Nominating and Governance Committee seeks to have a Board composed of directors with diverse backgrounds and qualifications that create a mix of experience, knowledge and skillsets that will allow the Board to fulfil its responsibilities. The Board believes that a variety of points of view contributes to a more effective decision-making process. When nominating directors for election or re-election by stockholders, the Board and the Nominating and Governance Committee focus on how the experience and skillset of each nominee advance the Company's strategic objectives and complement those of fellow nominees and members of the Board to create a balanced Board with different viewpoints and deep expertise. The Board does not endorse a mandatory retirement age, term limits, or automatic re-nomination to serve as a director.

Board Effectiveness

Director Onboarding, Development and Evaluations

The Nominating and Governance Committee oversees the onboarding of new directors, continuing director education, and annual self-evaluations.

#### Director Onboarding Process
Zebra provides robust orientation and onboarding to new directors to familiarize them with: Zebra and its culture, industry, strategy and operations, including talent development philosophy and approach; financial statements, internal controls and related policies; corporate governance practices; and the roles and responsibilities of the Board and its directors generally. Zebra's orientation program includes meetings with the Zebra's management, invitations to attend the meetings of each of the Board's Committees and comprehensive background materials.

#### Director Development Resources
Zebra also values and strongly encourages continuing director education. Zebra provides its directors with various forms of training, education and business-specific learning opportunities throughout the year, including: Company site visits and site visits to major customers and vendors, as appropriate; briefings on business updates; and presentations to the Board and its Committees on Zebra's business (including specific updates on our offerings), industry and governance trends, regulatory developments and best practices. Zebra regularly provides the Board and its committees with other educational materials on topics relevant to Zebra. Directors are also strongly encouraged to attend, and are reimbursed for any expenses related to, additional continuing education programs provided by third parties designed to enhance the performance of directors and the Board as a whole and its Committees.

#### Annual Self-Evaluation
The Board believes that its evaluations at the Board, Committee and individual-director level are the most effective means of determining whether the Board and its Committees are operating effectively and whether a director should continue to serve on the Board. A summary of the annual self-evaluation process is as follows:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Their <br>|  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Determine Format | &nbsp;&nbsp;Each spring, the Nominating and Governance Committee considers the annual self-evaluation process and reports to the Board regarding any recommended changes thereto. The Board has committed to use an independent third-party to facilitate the self-evaluations process every three years. In 2025, the annual self-evaluation was facilitated through an independent third-party, Sidley Austin LLP. |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Conduct Evaluations | &nbsp;&nbsp;Each summer, under the direction of the Nominating and Governance Committee, the Board and its Committees conduct a review of the fulfillment of their respective responsibilities under their governing documents. Each director also completes questionnaire regarding the effectiveness of each Committee on which they serve.<br>In 2025, Sidley Austin also provided a questionnaire to each director and certain members of management regarding the Board's effectiveness and performance and then conducted interviews with each such individual. Interview topics included: the Board's culture; Board composition and leadership; meeting and information processes; relationships with management; agenda priorities; Committee structure and composition; and the contributions of individual directors. |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Reviewing Results | &nbsp;&nbsp;Each fall, the Board and its Committees review the results of the annual self-evaluation and identify areas in which improvements may be made to enhance their effectiveness and stockholder value. In 2025, Sidley Austin also reviewed the results of its questionnaires and interviews with the Board.<br>Each winter, the Chair of the Board, the Lead Independent Director, and the Nominating and Governance Committee Chair determine whether re-nomination of incumbent directors is appropriate based on the results of the annual self-evaluation. |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Identify Action Items and Nominate Directors | &nbsp;&nbsp;The Board and its Committees identify action items to implement enhancements regarding the areas identified by the annual self-evaluation. In addition to the formal annual self-evaluation process outlined above, all directors are encouraged to provide feedback at any time throughout the year to further improve the Board's practices. Examples of responsive actions taken in recent years include:<br>● Prioritizing Board and Committee refreshment;<br>● Utilizing executive sessions at the beginning and the end of each meeting differently;<br>● Increasing directors' exposure to employees below the Executive Officer-level by establishing a process for meetings with these employees on a one-on-one basis outside of Board and Committee meetings; and <br>● Improving the meeting materials process, including streamlining management presentations and adjusting meeting agendas to allow additional time for discussion.<br>Each winter, the Nominating and Governance Committee recommends director nominees to the Board for approval. |

Director Refreshment and Tenure

The Board has been focused on ensuring we have a composite mix of tenure, background and experience on our Board. To that end, the Board has added six new directors since 2020. Currently, over 50 percent of our directors have served less than six years, and our directors have an average tenure of approximately eleven years. Each of the six directors that have joined the Board since 2020 have brought additional skills and perspectives and have strengthened the Board's ability to support and oversee the Company's long-term strategic objectives. Additionally, the leadership of the Board's Committees has been refreshed with the appointment of new Chairs of the Audit Committee (in March 2026), the Compensation and Culture Committee (in May 2024), and the Nominating and Governance Committee (in February 2025).

The Board does not endorse a mandatory retirement age, term limits, or automatic re-nomination to serve as a director. The Board believes that Board and Committee self-evaluation processes, including the Nominating and Governance Committee's consideration of an incumbent director's performance when determining director nominees to recommend to the Board, are the most effective means of determining whether a director should continue to serve in such capacity. The Board continues to monitor evolving board refreshment best practices, including those with respect to director tenure.

Director Independence and Service on Other Boards

Zebra's Corporate Governance Guidelines and Nasdaq listing rules require that a majority of our directors be independent. Under Nasdaq listing rules, a director does not qualify as independent unless the Board affirmatively determines that the director has no relationship that, in the opinion of the Board, would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director. In February 2026, the Board determined that each director, except Anders Gustafsson, the Chair of the Board, and William Burns, Zebra's CEO, was independent under Nasdaq listing rules, and that no director other than Messrs. Gustafsson or Burns had a relationship that would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director.

The Corporate Governance Guidelines limit the number of other publicly-traded, for-profit boards on which a non-employee director may serve to four. Employee directors and Executive Officers, including the Chief Executive Officer, may serve on the board of directors of one other publicly-traded, for-profit entity. Prior to accepting an invitation to serve on the board, a director must inform, and receive approval from, the Chair of the Board. In approving such board service, the Chair considers whether the director's service on another public company's board complies with the Corporate Governance Guidelines, creates a conflict of interest, including an interlocking directorate, or whether such board service would otherwise interfere with such director's service as a director of Zebra. These requirements and directors' compliance therewith are reviewed at least annually and each of Zebra's 2026 director nominees are compliant with these limitations.

Board Structure and Meeting Attendance

#### Board Leadership Structure
Pursuant to our Corporate Governance Guidelines, the Board annually appoints a Chair of the Board from among its members. This selection is based upon the Board's assessment of the best governance structure for Zebra and the Board. If the individual appointed to serve as Chair of the Board is not an independent director, the independent directors also appoint a Lead Independent Director.

Anders Gustafsson has served as Chair of the Board since 2024. Mr. Gustafsson is Zebra's former CEO and served as Executive Chair of the Board from 2023 to 2024. Mr. Gustafsson created tremendous value for stockholders during his service as CEO and his deep knowledge and expertise continues to benefit the Board.

Michael Smith has served as the Board's Lead Independent Director since 2024. Mr. Smith has served as an independent director since 1991 and previously served as the independent Chair of the Board from 2007 to 2023. Mr. Smith provides independent leadership that reflects his historical experience with Zebra and the Board.

The Board believes that this structure is optimal at this time as this arrangement facilitates an environment where the Board closely collaborates with management while ensuring Zebra's independent directors can effectively oversee performance and accountability of senior leaders.

#### Committees of the Board
Zebra's business is managed under the direction of the Board of Directors, which is kept apprised through regular and special meetings of the Board and its Committees, written reports and analyses, and discussions with the CEO, management and other employees.

Our Board has three standing Committees — the Audit Committee, the Compensation and Culture Committee, and the Nominating and Governance Committee — each of which is composed entirely of independent directors. Each of these standing Committees operate pursuant to a written charter which sets forth the committee's authority, duties and responsibilities.

#### Executive Sessions
The Board and its committees regularly meet in executive sessions with and without the Chair of the Board and/or CEO present. No formal action of the Board is taken at executive sessions, although the directors other than the CEO may subsequently recommend matters for consideration by the full Board. The directors other than the CEO discuss, among other things, priorities for upcoming sessions, considerations for the Annual Meeting of Stockholders, the performance evaluation of the CEO, the compensation of the CEO and other members of senior management, talent management, development and succession planning, Zebra's business and its strategic goals and initiatives, risk management, and management's approaches for achieving Zebra's long-term strategic goals, including review of merger and acquisition proposals. The directors other than the CEO may also invite guest attendees, such as management, other employees or independent consultants, when appropriate, for the purpose of providing the directors other than the CEO with information or counsel on specific matters.

#### Board Meeting Attendance
Barring unforeseen circumstances, directors are expected to attend noticed meetings of the Board and of the Committees on which they serve, as well as the Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

In 2025, the Board of Directors met seven times in 2025, and each of the directors attended at least 75 percent of the total meetings of the Board and the Committees on which they served occurring during the period in which they served. Each of the directors also attended the 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

---

The Audit, the Compensation and Culture, and the Nominating and Governance Committees report regularly to the Board regarding their oversight roles, and the Board regularly discusses significant risks facing Zebra. Management evaluates risk from these six distinct but overlapping risk areas:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● *Market risks*: geo-political, economic environment, competitive landscape, disruptive technologies such as AI, insurance and currency/foreign exchange rates;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● *Strategic risks*: succession planning, corporate governance, human capital management, mergers and acquisitions, business continuity and strategic vision;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● *Operational risks*: product & solutions development, procurement, manufacturing, logistics, distribution, sales, service execution, environmental, sustainability and workplace safety;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● *Reporting risks*: tax, accounting and financial reporting, liquidity, sustainability reporting, and risks surrounding information technology governance, infrastructure and application management;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● *Security and privacy risks*: cybersecurity, Zebra product and software security, data privacy and physical security; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● *Legal and compliance risks*: international trade, anti-bribery, product compliance, intellectual property, international laws and regulations, and litigation.

Management identifies top risks affecting Zebra and assesses these identified risks by looking at the potential impact on the Company, the likelihood of occurrence and level of risk exposure. Management cannot control market risks like general economic conditions or geopolitical tensions, but these risks are evaluated against Zebra's activities to manage our exposure.

Corporate Governance

**Oversight of Cybersecurity and Privacy Risks**

Our Board is responsible for oversight of risks to the Company and is assisted by the Audit Committee in the oversight of cybersecurity risks. Management provides regular updates to the Board regarding the Company's key cybersecurity activities. In connection with its oversight, the Audit Committee monitors the quality and effectiveness of the Company's cybersecurity program, including security of its internal information technology systems and its products and solutions, as well as our cybersecurity incident response plan and resources. Management provides quarterly updates to the Audit Committee about cybersecurity threat protection, detection, mitigation and remediation, including the overall status of the Company's cybersecurity program, results of third-party assessments, and recent cybersecurity threats. In addition, the Audit Committee reviews the Company's cybersecurity investment methodology to determine whether cybersecurity maturity improvements and risk reductions are being made.

The Company utilizes various tactics for cybersecurity threat protection. Management periodically performs vulnerability assessments, remediates vulnerabilities, reviews logs and access, performs system maintenance, manages network perimeter protection, and implements and manages disaster recovery testing. Further, Zebra relies on its information security management system supported by a comprehensive set of policies that directly align with ISO 27001 and are supported by System and Organization Controls 2 (SOC2) reports and external ISO 27001 certification for certain parts of our business.

**Oversight of Risks Arising Out of Zebra's Compensation Policies and Practices**

The Compensation and Culture Committee regularly reviews Zebra's compensation policies and programs to ensure our compensation design offers performance incentives to employees and executives, while mitigating excessive risk-taking. Our executive compensation program contains various provisions to mitigate against excessive risk-taking, including balancing cash and equity compensation, capping payments under incentive plans, using different financial metrics and stock ownership guidelines. Please refer to the CD&A on page 42 for further details on the design of our executive compensation program.

Based on its review and the analysis provided by its independent compensation consultant, FW Cook, the Compensation and Culture Committee has determined that the risks arising from the Company's compensation policies and practices for its employees, including Executive Officers, are not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on Zebra.

**Executive Performance, Talent Management, and Succession Planning Oversight**

Our Board acts as an advisor and counselor to our senior management and monitors their performance. A primary responsibility of our Board is to plan for the succession of the CEO as well as other senior management positions. Management reports regularly to our Board on Zebra's program for succession and management development, including Zebra's performance management and talent management processes. Our Board also becomes familiar with potential successors for senior management positions through various means, including, but not limited to, performance evaluations and talent reviews, Board and committee presentations and regular informal meetings. These development and succession planning activities resulted in the successful internal promotion of Melissa Luff Loizides to Chief People Officer effective January 2026.

**Stock Ownership Guidelines**

Zebra's Stock Ownership Guidelines impose the following stock ownership requirements:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| &nbsp;&nbsp;**Covered Participant** | **Multiple of Pay** |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Chief Executive Officer | 6x annual base salary |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Executive Officers | 4x annual base salary |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Section 16 Officers | 3x annual base salary |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Non-Employee Directors | 5x annual board cash retainer |

---

Covered participants have five years after becoming subject to the Stock Ownership Guidelines to satisfy the applicable threshold ownership level. Until that ownership requirement is attained, covered participants must retain 50% of their after-tax shares acquired upon exercise or vesting of an equity award. The Stock Ownership Guidelines are available on our website at http://www.zebra.com under "Investors-Governance-Governance Documents."

In February 2026, the Compensation and Culture Committee reviewed compliance with the Stock Ownership Guidelines as of December 31, 2025 and found that each non-employee director and Executive Officer satisfied the applicable stock ownership level except for the following individuals: Melissa Luff Loizides, who became an Executive Officer effective January 2026; Mary McDowell, who joined the Board in July 2025; and Kenneth Miller, who joined the Board in May 2024.

Corporate Governance

**Related Party Transactions**

The Related Party Transactions Policy applies to any transaction where Zebra is a participant, the aggregate amount involved may exceed $120,000, and a Related Party has a direct or indirect material interest. For this purpose, a "Related Party" is any director, executive officer, any beneficial owners of five percent or more of Zebra's voting securities, and their immediate family members, as well as entities in which a related party is a partner or has a five percent or greater beneficial interest. Zebra's Related Party Transactions Policy is posted on http://www.zebra.com under "Investors-Governance-Governance Documents."

Our Chief Legal Officer, General Counsel and Corporate Secretary and the Audit Committee administer the Related Party Transactions Policy. Anyone seeking to engage in a potential Related Party Transaction must provide the Chief Legal Officer, General Counsel and Corporate Secretary with all relevant information concerning the transaction. If the Chief Legal Officer, General Counsel and Corporate Secretary determines that a proposed transaction triggers further review under the Related Party Transactions Policy, the Chief Legal Officer, General Counsel and Corporate Secretary will provide all material information regarding the transaction to the Audit Committee to review and approve, ratify or disapprove. If the Audit Committee determines that the approval or ratification of the transaction should be considered by all of the disinterested members of the Board, disinterested directors would review the Related Party Transaction and, if appropriate, approve or ratify it by a majority vote of disinterested directors. In determining whether to approve, ratify or disapprove a transaction, the Audit Committee will consider all relevant available facts and circumstances, including:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● the size of the potential transaction and the amount payable to the Related Party;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● the nature of the Related Party's interest in the transaction;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● whether the transaction involves a conflict of interest;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● whether the transaction was undertaken in the ordinary course of business on terms no less favorable than terms generally available to an unaffiliated third-party under the same or similar circumstances;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● whether Zebra was notified about the transaction before its commencement, and if not, why pre-approval was not sought and whether subsequent ratification would be detrimental to Zebra;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● the impact on a director's independence;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● the availability of sources for comparable products or services;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● the benefit to Zebra and its stockholders; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● any other information regarding the transaction or Related Party that would be material to investors in light of the circumstances.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, transactions specifically excluded by the SEC's related person transaction disclosure rule are not considered Related Party Transactions under the Related Party Transactions Policy. However, such transactions may require approval under other applicable policies.

At the end of each fiscal quarter, Zebra conducts a related party survey that requires each director and Executive Officer to identify (i) all Related Parties, which includes family members and entities in which such director, Executive Officer or any family member has an ownership interest or for which such director, Executive Officer or any family member serves as a director or officer, and (ii) any transactions between Zebra and such Related Parties. In 2025, Zebra has not been a participant in a transaction in which any Related Party had or will have a direct or indirect material interest, as contemplated by Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.

**Compliance Reporting**

Zebra maintains a compliance hotline and website to provide a confidential means for employees or other interested individuals to communicate concerns to management or the Board, including concerns regarding accounting, internal controls or audit matters and compliance with laws, regulations, Company policies or the Code of Conduct. Our Chief Compliance Officer reports regularly to the Audit Committee on our Compliance and Ethics Program, including information about the communications received via the compliance hotline and website.

**Communications with the Board**

Any stockholder who would like to contact our Board may do so by writing to our Chief Legal Officer, General Counsel and Corporate Secretary at Three Overlook Point, Lincolnshire, Illinois 60069. Communications received in writing will be distributed to the appropriate members of the Board, depending on the content of the communication received.

Corporate Governance

**Non-Employee Director Compensation**

Zebra's director compensation program is designed to attract and retain highly qualified non-employee directors. Mr. Burns does not receive additional compensation for his service as a director. Non-employee director compensation consists of cash, to compensate directors for their service on the Board and its committees, and equity, to align our directors' and stockholders' interests. The Compensation and Culture Committee considers market data, alignment with stockholder interests, and independent compensation consultant input on an annual basis to determine whether it will recommend changes to the director compensation program to the Board for approval.

In November 2024, the Compensation and Culture Committee reviewed information regarding peer group and technology industry non-employee director compensation practices, as well as peer group financial performance. (For more information on the peer group, see CD&A — Our Compensation Approach, beginning on page 56). Using this information, the Compensation and Culture Committee determined that the 2024 total mix of non-employee director compensation was generally aligned with the medians for our peer group and the technology industry but recommended that the Board approve a reduction of the Lead Independent Director's annual cash retainer from $100,000 to $50,000. The Board approved this recommendation for the 2025 director compensation program.

**Elements of Director Compensation**

Our non-employee director compensation for 2025 was awarded with a combination of cash and equity, as shown below.

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**Annual cash retainer** | <br>● **$90,000 for all non-employee directors**<br>|

Proposal 2 Advisory Vote to Approve Compensation of Named Executive Officers

![Graphic](zbra-20260519xdef14a_a234.jpg)

## Proposal 2

## Advisory Vote to Approve Compensation of Named Executive Officers
Zebra is seeking your advisory vote to approve the compensation of our NEOs as disclosed in this Proxy Statement in accordance with Section 14A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. This is known as a "Say-on-Pay" proposal.

We ask our stockholders to approve the following resolution:

"Resolved, that the compensation of the NEOs of Zebra Technologies Corporation, as disclosed pursuant to Item 402 of Regulation S-K, as described in and including the Executive Summary — Compensation Discussion and Analysis, Compensation Discussion and Analysis ("CD&A"), compensation tables and narrative discussion contained in this Proxy Statement, is approved by the stockholders of Zebra."

We received 94.2% support from our stockholders in 2025 and did not make significant changes to our programs. We also maintain a robust stockholder engagement program better understand our stockholder perspectives.

As described in detail in the CD&A, our executive compensation program is designed to attract, retain, motivate, develop and reward our NEOs, who are critical to driving the success of our corporate strategy. Under this program, our NEOs are rewarded for the achievement of specific annual, long-term and strategic goals, corporate and individual goals, and the realization of increased stockholder value.

Our Board of Directors and Compensation and Culture Committee value the opinions of our stockholders and will consider the results of the vote, as appropriate, in making future decisions regarding the compensation of our NEOs. This vote is advisory, and therefore not binding on Zebra, our Compensation and Culture Committee or our Board of Directors.

LETTER TO STOCKHOLDERS FROM THE COMPENSATION AND CULTURE COMMITTEE

|:---|:---|
| ![Graphic](zbra-20260519xdef14a_a236.jpg)<br>| **Dear Fellow Stockholders**:<br>We thank you for your continued investment in Zebra Technologies. <br>Zebra has a long history of implementing executive compensation programs that align pay with performance, with a significant portion of compensation in the form of performance-based equity. This past year, the Committee placed renewed emphasis on ensuring our compensation programs align pay with stockholders' long-term interests, support Company strategy and balance profitability and growth with the ability to attract, retain and develop our talent. <br>In 2025, our senior management executed well amid a challenging operating environment, driving solid profitable growth. The team made significant progress in our AI and automation offerings and completed the acquisition of Elo Touch as we focus on enhancing future sustainable growth. Despite these efforts, our stock performance declined. The stock performance combined with the 2023 Performance-Vested Restricted Stock Units being earned at 46.8% resulted in realized pay of our executive team being significantly lower than the targeted values, reflecting alignment with our stockholders' experience. <br>We remain committed to engaging with our stockholders and incorporating their feedback as a key component of the Committee's decision-making process. This past year, the team continued our practice of soliciting stockholder perspectives on our compensation programs, contacting ~58% of our stock outstanding and engaging with stockholders representing ~21% of our stock outstanding. As in prior years, compensation program design and pay alignment were among the topics discussed.<br>Looking ahead, we will continue to seek the perspectives of our stockholders as our business and compensation programs evolve. We are focused on compensation program goals that incentivize stock price growth and continued sustainable performance, are rigorous, and align closely with our strategy. To further align our leadership with stockholders, we have implemented a relative Total Shareholder Return modifier to our Performance-Vested Restricted Stock Unit awards for our senior leaders beginning with the 2026 grants.<br>We will also continue our concerted efforts to develop our talent from within and ensure effective succession planning. We believe this focused talent strategy and our culture of innovation are key factors in Zebra consistently being highlighted as a workplace leader.<br>Lastly, this year we are seeking approval of the 2026 Long-Term Incentive Plan which would replace Zebra's 2018 Long-Term Incentive Plan. The Board believes strongly that stock-based compensation should be broad-based, align participants' long-term compensation with the interests of Zebra's stockholders and reward our employees for their long-term contributions to the Company's financial success. We take our role as stewards of the company's equity seriously, which is why we employ governance best practices and have taken a responsible approach to equity granting over many years. For further information on this proposal, please see page 75.<br>On behalf of the Zebra Board and Compensation and Culture Committee, we thank you for your investment in the Company and appreciate your continued support.<br>Sincerely,<br>![Graphic](zbra-20260519xdef14a_a237.jpg)<br>Janice M.

Stockholder feedback is an essential input into the Board's approach to designing an executive compensation program that aligns pay with performance, and Zebra remains committed to proactively engaging with stockholders to learn their views on relevant issues.

During our engagement meetings in the weeks before the 2025 Annual Meeting, stockholders generally expressed support for the changes that we made and for our overall compensation program.

Stockholders expressed support for the changes and commitments that we made prior to the 2025 Annual Meeting and expressed their general support for the structure of our current compensation program and associated disclosures. They also provided insight into how they evaluate requests for additional equity incentives, including guidance around plan cost, burn rate and preferred plan features. <br>**How We Evaluated Feedback**<br>The Compensation and Culture Committee carefully reviewed stockholder feedback from these engagement efforts, which underscored that stockholders generally expressed strong support for the structure and design of Zebra's core compensation program. <br>The Committee took this feedback into account alongside Zebra's strategic business goals, compensation philosophy, pay outcomes and the results of the 2025 Say-on-Pay vote, and determined that material changes to Zebra's core compensation program would not be necessary. The Committee also considered stockholder feedback regarding equity plan design in putting forth the proposal for our stockholders to approve the 2026 Long-Term Incentive Plan. <br>In order to align with Zebra's evolving business strategy and practices, two minor adjustments to our annual cash incentive award's financial performance metrics were made in the past year: <br>● To further incentivize our focus on sustainable, profitable growth, we adjusted the weighting of the Adjusted EBITDA (previously 50%) and the Net Sales (previously 30%) metrics to each compose 40% of the total performance percentage; and<br>● To align with our evolving investor messaging, we renamed the Enterprise Asset Intelligence ("EAI") Index metric to the Strategic Growth Index ("SGI"). |

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

**Overview of Our Executive Compensation Program**

**Compensation Governance Practices**

The Committee believes that the current structure of our compensation program aligns compensation with stockholders' long-term interests, balancing profitability, growth and the ability to attract, retain and motivate talent. Furthermore, Zebra received support for our programs during our stockholder engagement meetings and 94.2% of stockholders supported the advisory vote to approve the 2024 compensation of our NEOs at the 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. Therefore, we did not make significant changes to our 2025 compensation programs.

Zebra's compensation philosophy includes the following objectives:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● Provide market competitive programs to attract, retain and motivate top talent needed to successfully execute our business strategy;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● Provide consistent pay practices while creating an effective link between pay and performance;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● Link a meaningful percentage of an executive's compensation to Company performance and strategy, with a balance between short-term and long-term performance;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● Promote sound governance and reinforce Zebra's values to attain Company results while managing risks; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● Robust stock ownership guidelines that align executives with long-term interests of stockholders.

**Compensation Components**

Our executive compensation program includes three primary components: base salary, annual cash incentive awards and long-term equity incentive awards. Each component serves a particular purpose, so each is considered independently, but the three components combined provide a holistic total executive compensation approach. The Committee does not follow a pre-established formula to allocate total compensation among the various pay components.

To establish the compensation of the NEOs for 2025, the Committee and Mr. Burns (who made recommendations regarding NEOs other than himself) through the independent compensation consultant, conducted a benchmark analysis of each component of compensation (base salary, annual incentive, and long-term equity incentives) utilizing our peer group, technology industry and broad-based industry compensation survey data. The result of this analysis creates a total target compensation range. Target compensation for each NEO is set within that range based upon a variety of factors including, among others, the responsibilities of the role within the Company, tenure, succession planning and experience.

Below is the mix of target pay for our NEOs. Fixed compensation represented 8% of target pay for the CEO and 15% of target pay for the NEOs. Therefore, 92% and 85% of target pay was at-risk for our CEO and NEOs, respectively.

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

**Realized Pay Alignment with Overall Performance**

Target pay is established based on our philosophy and compared to market assuming target performance. However, Zebra's NEOs have a majority of their pay at risk based on performance. Specifically, most of their compensation is awarded in PVRSUs. Accordingly, the CEO's realized compensation varies significantly based on corporate performance of strategic goals and overall stock price. Below is a chart illustrating the targeted value of the CEO's 2023 LTI award compared to the actual value realized or realizable as of December 31, 2025.

![Graphic](zbra-20260519xdef14a_a269.jpg)

**Target Value**: Sum of the grant date fair value of Mr. Burns' 2023 RSU award granted on March 1, 2023 (9,992 RSUs) and Mr. Burns' two PVRSU awards granted on May 4, 2023 (17,409 and 9,672 PVRSUs). Mr. Burns received an annual award comprised of RSUs and PVRSUs. The 9,672 PVRSU grant was awarded in connection with his promotion to CEO. The table above reflects the sum total of these awards.

**Realized/ Realizable Value**: Represents value realized at vest of the first two tranches of RSUs granted on March 1, 2023 plus the value of the last tranche of RSUs as of December 31, 2025. Also includes the earned PVRSUs (at 46.8% of target) granted on May 4, 2023 as of December 31, 2025.

2025 Annual Compensation

**NEO Transitions**

In November 2025, Mr. White voluntarily resigned from his employment at Zebra. He did not receive severance payments in connection with his termination.

In November 2025, Mr. Schmitz announced that he would step down from his position as Chief People Officer on December 31, 2025. Effective January 1, 2026, Mr. Schmitz continued employment with the Company as a Senior Vice President until his planned retirement in the second quarter of 2026.

**2025 Base Salaries**

When considering base salary, the Committee reviews competitive compensation data, responsibilities of the role, tenure, and experience. Salaries were adjusted based on market data presented by the independent compensation consultant. Prior to the adjustments outlined below, NEOs' salaries had not been adjusted since 2023, with the exception of a market adjustment for Mr. White in 2024.

Our NEOs' 2025 base salaries and percentage change from 2024 appear in the following table:

---

**2025 ZIP Awards**

#### Target Awards
The 2025 ZIP provides an annual cash incentive award based on the achievement of pre-determined financial performance goals and individual performance goals. All NEOs participated in the 2025 ZIP.

For each NEO, the Committee (or, in the case of Mr. Burns, the Board) establishes a target incentive award, which is the product of each NEO's target incentive percentage and their eligible earnings. The Committee discussed each NEO's performance with Mr. Burns and compared each NEO's target incentive, both the percentage and the absolute dollar amount, to the market.

2025 ZIP payouts can range from 0% to 200% of the targeted incentive amount based on performance of the pre-established financial performance goals. The 2025 target incentive for NEOs were established as follows:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| <br>&nbsp;&nbsp;**Named Executive Officer** | **2025 ZIP Target**<br>**(As a % of Eligible Earnings)** |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;**William Burns** | 150% |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;**Nathan Winters** | 100% |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;**Richard Hudson** | 100% |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;**Cristen Kogl** | 80% |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;**Jeffrey Schmitz** | 80% |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;**Joseph White** | 100% |

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

Our 2025 ZIP incentivizes and rewards NEOs for achievement against full-year financial performance goals. For the 2025 ZIP, the Compensation and Culture Committee selected three financial performance goals:

---

| | | | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **2025 Consolidated Net Sales**<br>(40% weight) | **+** | **2025 Adjusted EBITDA**<br>(40% weight) | **+** | **2025 SGI**<br>(20% weight) | **=** | **Total ZIP PerformancePercentage** |
| <br>● Consolidated Net Sales before adjustments for purchase accounting<br>● Encourages annual sales growth and is measured in dollars<br>| **+** | <br>● EBITDA and other income/expense, adjusted to remove equity-based compensation expense, adjustments for purchase accounting and certain non-recurring charges<br>● Measures generation of absolute adjusted EBITDA<br>| **+** | <br>● A measure of revenue generated by certain solution and business units<br>● Focuses NEOs on Zebra's long-term strategic goal of driving success of new, innovative products and solutions <br>| **=** | <br>● Awards are subject to an overall maximum of 200% of target bonus <br>|

---

The Consolidated Net Sales, Adjusted EBITDA and SGI performance goals were selected to encourage a focus on profitable sales growth. These metrics balance both short- and long-term decisions, focusing our NEOs on maintaining profitability in our core business while expanding into new markets. In 2025, the Committee aligned the weightings of the Consolidated Net Sales and Adjusted EBITDA metrics at 40% each to balance profit and growth. Previously, Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA was weighted 50% and Net Sales was weighted 30%.

#### 2025 Financial Performance Goals and Performance Payout Percentage
The Committee set threshold, target and maximum performance goals for each metric based on the 2025 business plan. Failure to achieve threshold for a financial performance goal results in a 0% payout for such metric.

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| &nbsp;&nbsp;**Performance Goal** | **Performance Threshold** | **Performance Target** | **Performance Maximum** |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Net Sales | 92.5% | 100.0% | 105.0% or more |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Adjusted EBITDA | 80.0% | 100.0% | 112.5% or more |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;SGI | 75.0% | 100.0% | 115.0% or more |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;**Associated payout** | **50%** | **100%** | **200%** |

Zebra's actual performance financial goals resulted in a total ZIP performance percentage for 2025 of 114.7% for our NEOs, as shown below:

---

| | | | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **(Net Sales FinancialPerformance x 40%)** | + | **(Adjusted EBITDA Financial**<br>**Performance x 40%)** | + | **(SGI Financial**<br>**Performance x 20%)** | = | T**otal ZIP Performance Percentage** |
| **(119.2% x 40%)** | + | (108.4**% x 40%)** | + | (118.5**% x 20%)** | = | **114.7%** |

#### Performance Management Process and Individual Adjustments
The actual amount earned by each NEO is based on the final ZIP performance percentage previously shown and can be modified by the Board (for Mr. Burns) or the Committee (for the Other NEOs) based on performance against individual performance goals. No individual adjustments were made to the NEOs' 2025 payouts.

Based on the performance percentage and payout calculations shown above, the NEOs earned the following incentive awards for 2025:

**2025 Long-Term Equity Incentive Awards**

**Form of Awards**

The Committee believes it is important that our NEOs are motivated to create stockholder value over a longer period. To that end, Zebra grants two forms of long-term equity incentive awards to the NEOs:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1. Restricted Stock Units ("RSUs"), which vest ratably over three years; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2. Performance-Vested Restricted Stock Units ("PVRSUs"), which are earned (or not) based on results of three performance goals during a 3-year performance period and cliff vest three years after grant.

In 2025, our annual LTI program for the NEOs was allocated consistent with prior years, with 40% allocated to RSUs and 60% allocated to PVRSUs.

![Graphic](zbra-20260519xdef14a_a273.jpg)

Each year the Committee reviews the allocation of awards to ensure alignment of the NEOs interests with Zebra and its stockholders and to reflect current market practices. No changes were made to the allocation of awards in 2025.

**Target Awards**

The Committee, with the independent compensation consultant's advice, recommended the CEO LTI award to the Board. After reviewing market data, the Committee recommended and the Board approved a target LTI award valued at $11,000,000 for Mr. Burns in 2025.

The Committee approves LTI values for the Other NEOs. The Committee reviewed market data and considered LTI awards for the NEOs. Based on that data, the CEO recommended, and the Committee approved market competitive LTI awards for the Other NEOs.

The 2025 LTI awards were granted to the NEOs on March 4, 2025. To determine the number of RSUs and PVRSUs granted, the LTI value for each vehicle was divided by the closing price of our common stock on the day preceding the grant date.

The following table shows the grant date fair market value of LTI awards for each NEO in 2025, and the number of RSUs and PVRSUs granted.

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

**RSUs Granted in 2025**

To provide long-term perspective and retention incentive, the Committee determined that the RSUs granted in 2025 to the NEOs will vest one-third on each of the first three anniversaries of the grant date.

**PVRSUs Granted in 2025**

The overarching intent of the PVRSU program is to focus NEOs on achieving, and exceeding, the performance goals set during the performance period. On March 4, 2025, 60% of the NEOs' LTI award was granted in the form of PVRSUs. These awards will vest on March 4, 2028, based on performance of the following metrics beginning on January 1, 2025 and ending December 31, 2027:

---

| | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **Net Sales CAGR**(weighted 50%) | + | **Adjusted EBITDA Margin**(weighted 30%) | **+** | **FCF Conversion**(weighted 20%) |
| <br>● Incentivizes and rewards leaders for growth of Zebra's revenue over the performance period. <br>● Reinforces strategy of continuing sales growth into current and new markets<br>| + | <br>● Encourages leaders to focus on long-term profitability that we believe will create value for our stockholders.<br>● Aligns leadership with profitable growth allowing us to reinvest in the company.<br>| **+** | <br>● Encourages executives to drive financial discipline and focus on working capital. <br>|

---

These specific metrics are tied to long-term profitable growth and cash generation over a longer-term period. We believe these metrics are key drivers of our business, align leaders with stockholders, and that strong performance against these metrics will create stockholder value. Additionally, the Adjusted EBITDA Margin percentage performance goal differs from the Adjusted EBITDA metric used in the ZIP because it measures how profitable we are in generating EBITDA relative to revenue versus the absolute measure of Adjusted EBITDA used in the ZIP.

Our PVRSU program also has a retention feature to maintain leaders' focus in the event of an unexpected market downturn. In the case where the Company experiences a market contraction during the 3-year cycle, the value of the PVRSU award can have limited to no perceived value. To incentivize our team to drive growth during these periods of uncertainty, the Committee also approved annual goals for Net Sales, EBITDA Margin and FCF Conversion. These goals were set at the time of grant and based on projections to achieve the 3-year goals. The annual goals provide an opportunity to earn a portion of the target award to be paid at the end of the 3-year performance period. The payout related to this annual feature can never exceed 33.3% of the 3-year target in a single year. The absolute maximum payout under the annual goals is capped at 100% and would require each of the three metrics to be achieved in each of the three years during the cycle. We believe this structure ensures that the LTI program remains relevant to executives throughout the performance period and is retentive in nature consistent with the Committee's objectives.

At the end of the performance period, the number of PVRSUs actually earned is based on achievement of the performance goals over the period. However, the number of PVRSUs earned cannot be less than the total earned from the annual performance goals.

PVRSUs with Performance Period ending December 31, 2025

On May 4, 2023, Zebra granted PVRSUs with a 3-year performance period ending on December 31, 2025.

At the time of grant, 3-year performance targets were established based on the forecasts available at the time of grant. While the 3-year goal for Net Sales CAGR was not met, the Company did exceed its 3-year goals for Adjusted EBITDA Margin and FCF Conversion, which would have resulted in a payout of 45.8%.

---

| | | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **Threshold** | **Target** | **Maximum** | **Actual** | **Total Earned** |
| **Net Sales CAGR** | 3.5% | 5.0% | 6.5% | (2.3)% | —% |
| **Adjusted EBITDA Margin** | 22.0% | 23.5% | 24.5% | 22.1% | 15.6% |
| **FCF Conversion** | 85.0% | 100.0% | 105.0% | 102.6% | 30.2% |
| **Total Earned** |  |  |  |  | **45.8%** |

---

Annual performance goals were also established based on the forecasts available at the time of grant. The annual Net Sales and FCF conversion goals were achieved in two out of three years, but the EBITDA Margin goals were not achieved in any of the three years. As a result, and as set forth below, the minimum that could be earned based on the annual performance goals was 46.8%.

---

In February 2026, the Compensation and Culture Committee reviewed the performance against the goals set in 2023 and determined that the amount earned based on the 3-year goals did not increase the payout earned from the annual goals. Therefore, 46.8% of the 2023 PVRSU award will vest on May 4, 2026. The table below provides the number of PVRSUs that vested in 2026 for each NEO from their 2023 award:

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

**Our Compensation Approach**

In designing and implementing our executive compensation program for 2025, the Committee was guided by peer group market data as well as market data from technology industry surveys and broad-based industry surveys provided by our independent compensation consultant.

#### How We Establish the Peer Group
In July and August 2024, the Committee reviewed Zebra's composition of its peer group to consider whether any adjustments were necessary. The Committee reviewed the following company-specific information:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● business model, industry, cost structures and levels of complexity;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● size of the organization, including in terms of revenue and whether the companies were currently in the S&P 500;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● whether the proposed peer group member competes with Zebra for talent;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● stockholder profile (*i.e.*, whether the proposed peer group member is considered a reasonable investment alternative and attracts stockholders with similar risk/return expectations); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● whether the proposed peer group member creates products or solutions of a technical nature.

After consultation with FW Cook, the Committee approved the following changes in August 2024:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● Removal of the following companies, as their inclusion was no longer appropriate from a size-perspective: CommScope Holdings Company, Inc.; KLA Corporation; NCR Voyix Corporation; and ServiceNow, Inc.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● Addition of the following companies, as they are comparable from a size and industry perspective: Arista Networks, Inc.; F5, Inc.; Vontier Corporation

Accordingly, the Company's 2025 compensation peer group is composed of the following companies:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| &nbsp;&nbsp;**Company** | &nbsp;&nbsp;**Annual Revenue as of Sept 30, 2024\* ($M)** |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Motorola Solutions, Inc.  | 10421 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Insight Enterprises, Inc.  | 9043 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Rockwell Automation, Inc.  | 8792 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Agilent Technologies, Inc.  | 6497 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;NetApp, Inc.  | 6377 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Arista Networks, Inc.  | 6312 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Autodesk, Inc.  | 5805 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Teledyne Technologies Incorporated | 5552 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Juniper Networks, Inc.  | 5101 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Keysight Technologies, Inc.  | 5003 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Cadence Design Systems, Inc.  | 4162 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Ciena Corporation | 4020 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Akamai Technologies, Inc.  | 3927 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Trimble Inc.  | 3714 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Vontier Corporation | 3007 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;F5, Inc.  | 2776 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Teradyne, Inc.  | 2704 |

---

\* Most recently reported trailing 12 months as of September 30, 2024

In October 2024, when the benchmarking analysis was completed for the 2025 compensation, Zebra's revenues were approximately at the 40<sup>th</sup> percentile of the peer group.

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

#### Policies and Practices Related to the Grant of Certain Equity Awards Close in Time to the Release of Material Non-Public Information
The Committee has not included the use of stock options and stock appreciation rights as part of the annual program since 2021 and has not granted these types of awards since then. Zebra grants annual LTI awards in the form of RSUs and/or PVRSUs. LTI awards are generally made in the first half of the year after Zebra has announced its financial results for the prior fiscal year, or at the time of a special event (such as upon hiring or promotion), and are provided under the Zebra Technologies Corporation 2018 Long-Term Incentive Plan. We attempt to grant long-term incentive awards during periods when we do not have material, non-public information ("MNPI") that could impact the value of Zebra's stock. If the Board or the Committee were to approve such an award during a period in which there was MNPI about Zebra, the grant date would be deferred until two full business days following the date of the disclosure of such information. Additionally, Zebra does not time the disclosure of MNPI for the purpose of affecting the value of executive compensation.

#### Clawback Policies
NEOs are subject to the Company's Clawback Policy, which allows the Committee, in its discretion, to recoup cash or equity-based incentive awards (whether vested or unvested and whether time-based or performance based) if an employee engages in certain detrimental conduct, including but not limited to: (i) violating Zebra's written policies regarding employee conduct; (ii) disclosing or misusing any confidential information regarding Zebra; or (iii) participating in any activity not approved by the Board which could reasonably be foreseen as contributing to or resulting in a Change in Control of Zebra.

NEOs are also subject to the Company's Accounting Restatement Clawback Policy, which aligns with Nasdaq clawback listing standards and requires the mandatory clawback of incentive compensation in the case of financial restatement due to a material non-compliance with financial reporting requirements under the applicable federal securities laws.

NEOs' employment agreements also contain restrictive covenant provisions that also contain clawback provisions for violation of such covenants.

#### Hedging and Pledging Prohibitions
NEOs are prohibited from hedging transactions with respect to Zebra securities, holding Zebra securities in margin accounts, and pledging Zebra securities as collateral for a loan under the Company's Securities Transactions and Confidentiality Policy.

#### Employee Benefits
Zebra's employee benefits are designed to align with market standards for such programs. NEOs are eligible to participate in various benefit programs offered generally to Zebra's U.S. salaried employees, such as our health plans and group disability and life insurance plans. We provide a 401(k) plan to eligible employees with a Company match, as well as a non-qualified deferred compensation plan for highly compensated employees with no Company contributions. In addition, our NEOs are eligible for an annual executive health screening as well as reimbursement for identity theft protection.

Zebra provides a supplemental executive disability policy to replace the difference between what the group disability policy provides and the 60% earnings replacement cap under the group policy. Zebra pays for this coverage and reimburses covered NEOs to the extent they are taxed on this benefit.

Mr. Hudson resided in the United Kingdom until September 2025 when he relocated to the United States. While residing in the United Kingdom, Mr. Hudson received general benefits consistent with those provided to Zebra's employees in the United Kingdom.

Zebra does not provide our NEOs with any other unique perquisites, benefits, supplemental executive retirement plans or compensation.

#### Executive Officer Employment Agreements
Each of our NEOs has an employment agreement that addresses matters such as total compensation and termination of employment and includes confidentiality, non-compete and non-solicitation provisions. The confidentiality, non-compete or non-solicitation provisions, where applicable, align with our desire to protect Zebra and our stockholders from undesirable outcomes that could result from an NEO joining a competitor or otherwise engaging in activities that could result in competitive harm to Zebra or our customers. The components of total compensation reflected in the employment agreements are reviewed annually by the Committee. All other provisions of the employment agreements are established when an employee is appointed as an Executive Officer and are reviewed and updated on an as-needed basis.

We believe having employment agreements helps Zebra attract and retain effective and high-caliber leaders by providing NEOs a minimum level of total compensation and assurance regarding a potential termination of employment in connection with a change in control. Specifically, we believe the severance amounts reflected under Potential Payments upon Termination of Employment or Change in Control on page 62 are fair and reasonable in order to allow the NEOs to transition from Zebra while minimizing disruption to our overall business. Moreover, we believe that, in the event of a change in control, these severance payments will help secure the continued employment and dedication of our NEOs, notwithstanding any concern they may have regarding their own employment.

**Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation**

Pursuant to Zebra's non-qualified deferred compensation plan, an NEO may defer, on a pre-tax basis, up to 50% of his or her base salary and annual incentive award. Deferred compensation balances are credited with gains or losses that mirror the performance of benchmark investment funds selected by the participant under the plan. All credited amounts are unfunded general obligations of Zebra, and participants have no greater rights to payment than any unsecured general creditor of Zebra.

The value of a participant's account is based upon the performance of a participant's selected benchmark investment funds. Account balances are paid either in a lump sum or in annual installments. Zebra's non-qualified deferred compensation plan permits payment upon, among other things, a termination of employment or a change in control of Zebra. Zebra does not make contributions to the plan but pays the costs of administration.

The table below sets forth information regarding the NEOs' participation in Zebra's non-qualified deferred compensation plan in 2025.

**Potential Payments upon Termination of Employment or Change in Control** 

**General**

Our NEOs' employment agreements, equity award agreements and Zebra's compensation and benefit plans provide for compensation payments and benefits upon certain termination triggering events. The information below describes those instances in which our NEOs would be entitled to payments following a termination of employment and/or upon a change in control of Zebra. Mr. White was not an NEO on December 31, 2025.

#### Zebra's Annual Incentive Plan and Equity Award Agreements
NEOs are eligible to earn annual incentive awards under Zebra's annual incentive plan, and are eligible to earn RSUs and PVRSUs under their equity award agreements. Eligibility to receive incentive-based compensation is determined in the sole discretion of the Compensation and Culture Committee for Ms. Kogl and Messrs. Hudson, Schmitz, and Winters, and the Board for Mr. Burns. Mr. Burns' equity award agreements for awards granted while he is CEO are the same as the equity award agreements for other NEOs. All NEOs participated in the 2025 ZIP. Please note, the Company has not granted new stock appreciation rights since 2021, and none of our NEOs had unvested stock appreciation rights at the end of 2025 that would qualify for accelerated vesting upon a termination event discussed herein.

Under Zebra's equity award agreements, each NEO is bound by non-competition and non-solicitation provisions until one year following termination. Each NEO has agreed to confidentiality covenants during and after employment. Pursuant to our Clawback Policy, which applies to all Section 16 Officers, the Company may recoup incentive compensation under Zebra's annual incentive plan or equity-based incentive compensation awards where: (i) the Company is required to prepare an accounting restatement resulting from executive misconduct or gross negligence, or (ii) an executive's misconduct results, or could result, in termination for cause, including a violation of any material obligation under an employment, confidentiality, non-solicitation, non-competition or any similar type agreement. Under the Company's Accounting Restatement Clawback Policy, the Company must also recoup erroneously awarded incentive based compensation from Executive Officers when an accounting restatement is required, regardless of the Executive Officer's misconduct.

Executive Compensation

**Payments Upon Retirement or Voluntary Resignation**

Under Zebra's annual incentive plan, a participant that is eligible for retirement may be paid any earned incentive award amount in the event of termination by reason of retirement, but not voluntary resignation. Ms. Kogl and Messrs. Burns, Hudson, and Schmitz. were eligible for retirement under the 2025 ZIP. Mr. Winters was not retirement eligible. Ms. Kogl and Messrs. Burns, Hudson, and Schmitz meet the "Rule of 65" as it applies to stock awards granted in 2023, 2024 and 2025. The Rule of 65 means the sum of the Executive Officer's age (in years) and years of continuous service with the Company (including its predecessors) equals or exceeds 65, provided that the Executive Officer must meet both a minimum age of 55 and a minimum of five years of continuous service.

Ms. Kogl and Messrs. Burns, Hudson, and Schmitz's RSUs granted in 2023 and 2024 provide that upon termination of employment by reason of retirement meeting the Rule of 65, these awards will continue to vest for 12 months or, if earlier, the next anniversary of the grant date. They would also receive pro rata portions of their 2023 and 2024 PVRSU grants to be paid at the end of the three-year performance period, with the number of PVRSUs equal to the greater of what has been earned under the (1) annual goals or (2) the performance goals for the three-year performance period. For awards beginning in 2025, upon a termination by reason of retirement, an executive would continue vesting in RSUs and PVRSUs if they meet the Rule of 65 and provide 6-months' notice of retirement.

**Payments Upon Death or Disability**

All NEOs' are entitled to the same payment treatment in the event of termination of employment by death or disability. Under Zebra's annual incentive plan, in the event of termination of employment by reason of death or disability, participants are entitled to any earned incentive award amount that they would have otherwise received. NEOs are also entitled to the full vesting of any unvested portion of their 2023, 2024 and 2025 RSUs. In addition, if terminated on December 31, 2025 under such circumstances, the 2023, 2024 and 2025 PVRSUs would fully vest immediately, with the number of PVRSUs equal to the greater of what has been earned under the (1) annual goals or (2) the three-year performance goals based on the most recent quarter.

**Payments Upon Involuntary Termination Without Cause or by Officer for Good Reason**

Under our NEOs' employment agreements, "Cause" includes the commission, indictment or conviction of a felony or misdemeanor involving fraud or dishonesty; a material breach of the employment agreement; willful or intentional misconduct, gross negligence, or dishonest, fraudulent or unethical behavior; failure to materially comply with a direction of the Board; or breach of fiduciary duty to Zebra. "Good Reason" includes a demotion to a lesser position or assignment of duties materially inconsistent with the NEOs' position, status or responsibilities; a material breach by Zebra of the employment agreement; or a decrease in base salary (unless applied proportionally).

In the instance of involuntary termination without Cause or by officer for Good Reason, because they are retirement eligible, any unvested portion of Ms. Kogl and Messrs. Burns, Hudson, and Schmitz's RSUs granted in 2023, 2024 and 2025 will continue to vest for 12 months or, if earlier, the next anniversary of the grant date. Any unvested portion of Mr. Winters' RSUs granted in the same period would vest on a pro rata basis as of the date of termination. For all NEOs, their 2023, 2024 and 2025 PVRSUs would vest on a pro-rata basis and would be paid at the end of the three-year performance period, with the number of shares of performance-vested restricted stock equal to the greater of what has been earned under the (1) annual goals or (2) the performance goals for the three-year performance period.

In cases of involuntary termination without cause or by officer for good reason, termination compensation can differ based on the retirement eligibility of certain NEOs and slight differences in the CEO's employment agreement. Those differences are summarized below.

#### Ms. Kogl and Messrs. Hudson, Schmitz, and Winters
If Ms. Kogl or Messrs. Schmitz, White or Winters terminates his or her employment for Good Reason, or Zebra terminates his or her employment without Cause and under circumstances other than death or disability, he or she will be entitled to (i) a severance payment equal to one-year continuation of base salary; (ii) a severance payment equal to 100% of the NEOs' target annual incentive for the year in which employment terminates; (iii) a pro rata portion of his or her annual incentive for the year in which his or her employment terminates, if the incentive otherwise would have been earned; (iv) any unpaid previously earned annual incentive, if the incentive otherwise would have been earned; (v) outplacement services not to exceed $32,000; and (vi) the continuation of coverage under Zebra's medical and dental insurance plans, with Zebra contributing to the cost of such coverage at the same rate Zebra pays for health insurance coverage for its active employees under its group health plan, until the earlier of (a) one year after the date of termination, or (b) the NEOs becoming eligible for coverage under another group health plan that does not impose preexisting condition limitations.

Executive Compensation

#### Mr. Burns
If Mr. Burns terminates his employment for Good Reason, or Zebra terminates his employment without Cause and under circumstances other than death or disability, he will be entitled to the same termination compensation treatment as the NEOs described above, except he is entitled to a salary severance payment equal to two-years continuation of base salary and his coverage under Zebra's medical and dental insurance plans shall continue until the earlier of (a) two years after the date of termination, or (b) he becomes eligible for coverage under another group health plan that does not impose preexisting condition limitations.

**Payments Upon Involuntary Termination Without Cause or by Officer for Good Reason Concurrently with a Change in Control**

Under our NEOs' employment agreements, a "Change in Control" includes (i) an acquisition by a person or group of 35% or more of Zebra's common stock; (ii) a change in a majority of the Board within a 24-month period; (iii) the approval by our stockholders of a complete liquidation or dissolution of Zebra; or (iv) the consummation of a reorganization, merger or consolidation of Zebra or sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of Zebra.

If the NEO terminates employment for Good Reason, or Zebra terminates the NEO's employment without Cause, and the termination occurs within 120 days immediately preceding or one year following a Change in Control, then the NEO will be entitled to all compensation and benefits set forth in the Involuntary Termination Without Cause or by Officer for Good Reason column in the tables under Potential Payments upon Termination of Employment or Change in Control, except the NEO will be entitled to (i) a payment equal to two times his or her base salary in lieu of one-year salary continuation, (ii) two times his or her target annual incentive in lieu of one times, which payment would be payable within 60 days following the later of the Change in Control or termination of employment, and (iii) all of the NEO's outstanding restricted stock awards would fully vest.

After a Change in Control and upon termination of a NEO's employment, if the parachute payments would exceed the 3X threshold, then the payments will be cut back to an amount that is one dollar less than the threshold. However, this cut back would not be made if the NEO, as applicable, would have more "after excise tax" dollars if he or she paid the excise tax.

**Potential Payments upon Termination of Employment or Change in Control**

Described below are the potential payments and benefits to which the NEO would be entitled from Zebra under their employment agreements, equity award agreements and the Company's compensation and benefit plans upon termination of employment if such termination had occurred as of December 31, 2025. Amounts actually received would vary based on factors such as the date on which a NEO's employment terminates, the Company's performance and the price of our common stock on such date. The tables exclude payments and benefits that are generally available to full-time salaried employees, such as accrued salary and vacation pay.

The NEOs are not entitled to any payments or benefits as a result of a termination of employment for Cause.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) Under the 2018 Long-Term Incentive Plan, if pursuant to a change in control of Zebra effective December 31, 2025 stockholders receive consideration consisting solely of publicly traded common stock and outstanding equity awards are assumed, or provision is made for the continuation of these awards after the change in control, then such awards will continue in accordance with their terms. These awards, however, also provide that if the participant's employment is terminated by the participant for Good Reason or by Zebra without Cause after the change in control, then vesting of the awards will accelerate. Because SEC rules require that we assume a termination of employment occurs concurrently with a change in control, the amounts set forth in the table include equity awards that, under the 2018 Long-Term Incentive Plan, contain "double trigger" acceleration provisions.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) The amounts assume termination of employment at year end and are based on actual performance.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) The amounts reflect the $242.82 closing price of our common stock on The Nasdaq Stock Market on December 31, 2025 for both the RSUs and PVRSUs. Because no portion of the performance periods ending December 31, 2026 or December 31, 2027 have been completed as of December 31, 2025, the 2024 and 2025 PVRSU awards granted to NEOs are reflected in the table on a pro-rata basis at target performance.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4) Represents estimated excise tax gross ups or estimated cutbacks on severance, accelerated options, restricted stock and healthcare and dental benefits.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(5) Excludes the amount of previously earned and fully vested deferred compensation under Zebra's deferred compensation plans that would become immediately payable. See Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation on page 61 for additional information.

Executive Compensation

**CEO Pay Ratio**

**Identification of Median Employee**

To identify the median employee, we selected a median pool of employees from the overall population, including the identified median employee.

We compiled a list of all full-time, part-time, temporary and seasonal employees who were employed on November 3, 2025, including employees working inside and outside the United States. This list excluded Mr. Burns, who served as CEO during the entire 2025 fiscal year, and also excluded 670 individuals who became employees upon the acquisitions of Photoneo and Elo Touch during the 2025 fiscal year in accordance with an exemption permitted by SEC regulations.

We then used a consistently applied compensation measure, total cash compensation, to determine the median pool of employees. We define total cash compensation as base wages and annual incentives at target payable in cash during 2025.

On November 3, 2025, Zebra had 10,462 employees worldwide. Under the five percent de minimis exception established by the SEC, the countries and applicable number of employees that were excluded are as follows:

---

| | | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **Country** | **Headcount** | **Country** | **Headcount** | **Country** | **Headcount** |
| Argentina | 15 | Indonesia | 7 | Saudi Arabia | 7 |
| Australia | 38 | Israel | 8 | Serbia | 15 |

| Belgium | 12 | Japan | 37 | Spain | 38 |

| Greece | 3 | Portugal | 7 | United Arab Emirates | 20 |
| Hong Kong | 3 | Romania | 7 | Vietnam | 23 |
| Hungary | 7 |  |  |  |  |

---

Once we identified the median employee, we calculated their total 2025 compensation using the same methodology used to determine the total 2025 compensation for the CEO, as reported above in the Summary Compensation Table.

**CEO Pay Ratio Calculation**

For 2025:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● The total annual compensation of the employee identified at the median of all Zebra employees, other than Mr. Burns, was $68,738 ; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● Mr. Burns' total compensation as CEO was $13,890,300.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● Based on this information, the ratio of the annual total compensation of Mr. Burns to the median of the annual total compensation of all employees was estimated to be 202 to 1.

Our methodology may differ materially from the methodology used by other companies to prepare their CEO pay ratios, which may contribute to a lack of comparability between our pay ratio and the pay ratio reported by other companies, including those within our industry or peer group.

**Executive Pay Versus Company Performance**

The information below is provided pursuant to the SEC pay versus performance disclosure requirements set forth in Item 402(v) of SEC Regulation S-K (the "Pay Versus Performance Rule"), which requires companies to disclose certain information about the relationship between "Compensation Actually Paid" ("CAP") to our CEO and to our Other NEOs and certain financial performance of the Company. CAP, as determined under SEC requirements, does not reflect the actual amount of compensation earned by or paid to our Executive Officers during a covered year.

Executive Compensation

#### Compensation Actually Paid vs Zebra Cumulative TSR
CAP for the CEO and Other NEOs aligns with Zebra's TSR over the 2021-2025 period. Zebra's TSR directly impacts the value of CAP given the weight of equity incentive awards as a part of target compensation in our executive compensation program; during the 2021-2025 period, equity incentive awards comprised on average over 76% of the CEO's target compensation per year and over 65% of the Other NEOs target compensation per year. This practice aligns the interests of Zebra's Executive Officers with those of our stockholders. Declines in Zebra's TSR in 2022 and 2025 led to lower CAP amounts to our CEO and other NEOs in that year; increase in TSR in 2024 led to higher CAP in those years; and the relatively flat TSR in 2023 resulted in modest CEO and Other NEO CAP growth in 2023.

![Graphic](zbra-20260519xdef14a_a278.jpg)

#### Compensation Actually Paid vs Zebra Net Income
Although Zebra's executive compensation program does not use Net Income to determine an executive's total compensation, or an executive officer's payouts under ZIP or PVRSU grants, CAP for the CEO and Other NEOs generally aligns with Zebra's Net Income over the 2021-2025 period. This alignment reflects changes to Zebra's stock price due to changes in Net Income; CAP amounts are sensitive to changes in Zebra's stock price given the weight of equity incentive awards as a part of target compensation in our executive compensation program.

Executive Compensation

#### Compensation Actually Paid vs Zebra Net Sales (Company Selected Measure)
Zebra uses Net Sales as a metric under its ZIP and Net Sales CAGR as a metric for performance-vested restricted stock, and CAP for the CEO and other NEOs generally aligns with Zebra's Net Sales over the 2021-2025 period. As indicated below, with a higher growth in Net Sales from 2023 through 2025, CAP for the CEO and Other NEOs in 2024 increased relative to each respective year's prior year CAP. When Net Sales growth declined or slowed from 2022 through 2023, the CEO and Other NEO CAP amounts declined or increased at a more modest rate.

PROPOSAL 3 APPROVAL OF 2026 LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PLAN

![Graphic](zbra-20260519xdef14a_a104.jpg)

## Proposal 3
**Approval of 2026 Long-TermIncentive Plan**

Zebra believes that stock-based incentive compensation is integral to our compensation philosophy. Stock-based compensation links employee interests with stockholder interests throughout Zebra's organization, motivates participants to act as owners of the business, and incentivizes participants to focus on our long-term success. Such compensation also advances the interests of Zebra and its stockholders by rewarding personnel for their long-term contributions to Zebra's financial success and motivating them to continue to make such contributions in the future. Historically, Zebra has granted equity awards on an annual basis to employees at the director level and above, or approximately five percent of its employees. In addition, Zebra may grant equity awards to employees below the director level on a discretionary basis.

The Board has approved and recommends that stockholders approve the Zebra Technologies Corporation 2026 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the "LTIP") at the annual meeting. If approved by stockholders, the LTIP will become effective on the date of stockholder approval and will supersede and replace the Zebra Technologies Corporation 2018 Long-Term Compensation Plan (the "2018 Plan"), and no additional grants will be made under the 2018 Plan, except that the 2018 Plan would remain in effect with respect to outstanding awards under the 2018 Plan until those awards have been exercised, settled or otherwise terminated. In the event that the LTIP is not approved by the stockholders, the LTIP would be null and void, and Zebra will continue to grant equity awards under the 2018 Plan until its termination in 2028 or the available shares under the 2018 Plan are depleted.

If the LTIP is approved, and subject to provisions described further below, the number of shares that will be available for awards under the LTIP as of the effective date of the LTIP will be 2,430,000 shares reduced by the number of shares subject to awards granted under the 2018 Plan after December 31, 2025 and prior to the effective date of the LTIP. The 2,430,000 shares are equal to the sum of 1,279,139 shares that remained available for future grants under the 2018 Plan as of December 31, 2025 and 1,150,861 newly-added shares.

The Board believes that stockholder approval of the LTIP is in the best interests of Zebra because the LTIP will allow Zebra to continue to link long-term incentive compensation to Zebra's financial performance and will continue to enable Zebra to attract, retain, motivate and reward key personnel. The Board approved the LTIP on March 30, 2026 after receiving the recommendation of the Compensation and Culture Committee to approve the LTIP. The LTIP would become effective upon obtaining stockholder approval.

Key Data: Burn Rate and Dilution

Zebra does not believe the LTIP will result in excessive burn rate or dilution to stockholders. Zebra manages burn rate and long-term stockholder dilution by limiting the number of equity incentive awards granted annually. Management and the Compensation and Culture Committee carefully monitor Zebra's share dilution and equity expense by granting only equity incentive awards that it believes are necessary to attract, reward and retain employees.

The following table shows certain information about the 2018 Plan (the only equity plan under which we can currently grant equity awards), including outstanding awards:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
|  | **As of December 31, 2025** |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Number of shares that were authorized for future grant under the LTIP<sup>(1)</sup> | 1279139 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Number of stock-settled full-value awards (restricted stock units and performance-based restricted stock units) outstanding | 876123 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Number of stock-settled Stock Options/SARs outstanding | 158405 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Weighted average remaining term of outstanding Stock Options/SARs | 0.53 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Weighted average exercise price of outstanding Stock Options/SARs | $147.16 |

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) As of the effective date of the LTIP, the authorization will be reduced by the number of shares granted under the 2018 Plan after December 31, 2025 and prior to the effective date

PROPOSAL 3 APPROVAL OF 2026 LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PLAN

The following table sets forth information regarding historical awards granted and earned in 2023, 2024, and 2025, and the corresponding burn rates. The burn rate is defined as the sum of the time-based equity-based awards granted and performance-based equity awards vested (released) in a year, divided by the weighted-average common shares outstanding for that year, for each of the previous three fiscal years. Zebra's three-year average burn rate for the 2023 through 2025 period was 0.74%.

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **2025** | **2024** | **2023** |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Total Stock Options/SARs Granted (A) |  |  |  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Total Time-Vested Restricted Stock/RSUs Granted (B) | 368968 | 283654 | 342808 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Total Performance-Vested Restricted Stock/RSUs Released (C) | 65647 | 35597 | 35235 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Total (A) + (B) + (C) | 434613 | 319251 | 378043 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Basic Weighted Average Common Shares Outstanding | 50820589 | 51494957 | 51378051 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Burn Rate | 0.86% | 0.62%  | 0.74% |

---

An additional metric that we use to measure the cumulative dilutive impact of our equity program is fully-diluted overhang, which is defined as the sum of: (a) the number of shares subject to equity awards outstanding, but not exercised or settled; and (b) the number of shares available to be granted, divided by the sum of: (x) the approximate total common shares outstanding; (y) the number of shares subject to equity awards outstanding but not exercised or settled; and (z) the number of shares available to be granted. Our fully-diluted overhang as of December 31, 2025 was approximately 4.6%. If the LTIP is approved, our fully-diluted overhang as May 19, 2026 would increase to approximately 6.7% and then would decline over time.

In addition to achieving the objectives stated above about Zebra's compensation program and philosophies, based on Zebra's current stock price and assuming Zebra's historical grant practices, the LTIP would provide Zebra with the flexibility to continue making stock-based grants over at least the next four years in amounts determined appropriate by the Compensation and Culture Committee and aligned to peer group benchmarking.

Promoting Compensation Governance Best Practices

The LTIP provides for the following:

● **No Discount Stock Options; 10-Year Term on Stock Options**. Stock options and stock appreciation rights may not have a term in excess of ten years and may not be granted at a discount to the fair market value of our common stock on the grant date.

● **No Repricing**. Other than in connection with a change in control or a change in the Company's capitalization, the Company may not reprice stock option or stock appreciation rights awards without stockholder approval.

● **No Evergreen**. No annual "evergreen" provision that automatically increases the number of shares available for issuance; instead, stockholder approval is required for any increases in the share reserve.

● **No Excise Tax Gross-ups**.

● **Non-Employee Director Compensation Limits**. $750,000 annual limit on compensation that may be awarded to non-employee directors.

● **No Liberal Share Recycling on Stock Options or Stock Appreciation Rights**. Shares subject to a stock option or stock appreciation right will not again be available for issuance under the LTIP if such shares are: shares that are not issued or delivered upon the net settlement or net exercise of such stock option or stock appreciation right, shares delivered to or withheld by Zebra to pay the purchase price or the withholding taxes related to such stock option or stock appreciation right, or shares repurchased by Zebra on the open market with the proceeds of an Option exercise.

● **No Dividends Paid Currently on Unvested Awards**. In no event will dividends or dividend equivalents be paid with respect to unvested awards.

● **One Year Minimum Vesting on All Award Types**. No awards granted under the LTIP may vest until the first anniversary of the applicable grant date (subject to certain exceptions).

Purpose

The purposes of the LTIP are to align participants' long-term compensation with the interests of Zebra and its stockholders and to attract, retain, motivate and reward key personnel.

| &nbsp;&nbsp;Shares Available | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Subject to the LTIP's share counting rules and subject to changes in capitalization, the number of shares that will be available for awards under the LTIP as of the effective date of the LTIP,<br>will be 2,430,000 shares reduced by the number of shares subject to awards granted under the 2018 Plan after December 31, 2025 and prior to the effective date of the LTIP. The 2,430,000 shares are equal to the sum of 1,279,139 shares that remained available for future grants under the 2018 Plan as of December 31, 2025, plus 1,150,861 newly-added shares. This share request was calculated based on a new authorization of 2,430,000 shares, plus what Zebra anticipates will be available for future grants under the 2018 Plan immediately prior to the effectiveness of the LTIP. In addition, an aggregate of 1,000,000 shares will be available under the LTIP with respect to incentive stock options, subject to adjustments as described below. The number of available shares will be reduced by the aggregate number of shares of common stock which become subject to outstanding awards. In addition, the number of shares available under the LTIP, as well as the number of shares that may be issued as incentive stock options, is subject to adjustment in the event of any equity restructuring that causes the per share value of shares of common stock to change, such as a stock dividend, stock split, spinoff, rights offering or recapitalization through an extraordinary cash dividend.<br>After December 31, 2025, to the extent that shares of common stock subject to an outstanding award (other than substitute awards granted in connection with a corporate transaction) granted under the LTIP, the 2018 Plan or any other equity plan maintained by Zebra under which awards are outstanding as of the effective date of the LTIP (together with the 2018 Plan, the "Prior Plan"), are not issued or delivered by reason of:<br>(i)<br>the expiration, termination, cancellation or forfeiture of such award (excluding shares of common stock subject to an option canceled upon settlement of a related tandem SAR or subject to a tandem SAR cancelled upon exercise of a related option); or <br>(ii)<br>the settlement of such award in cash, then such shares of common stock will again be available under the LTIP. <br>After December 31, 2025, shares of common stock subject to an award granted under the LTIP or the Prior Plan, other than an option or SAR, will again become available for issuance under the LTIP if the shares are delivered to or withheld by Zebra to pay the withholding taxes payable with respect to such award. Shares of common stock subject to an option or SAR granted under the LTIP or the Prior Plan will not again be available for issuance under the LTIP if such shares are: <br>(i)<br>shares that were not issued or delivered upon the net settlement or net exercise of such option or SAR (including, without limitation, any shares withheld to pay the purchase price or withholding taxes of an option or SAR);<br>(ii)<br>shares delivered to or withheld by Zebra to pay the purchase price or the withholding taxes related to an outstanding option or SAR; or <br>(iii)<br>shares repurchased by Zebra on the open market with the proceeds of an option exercise.<br>As of March **25**, 2026, the closing stock price of a share of Zebra's common stock, as reported on NASDAQ, was $208.45. |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Director Compensation Limit | &nbsp;&nbsp;The maximum aggregate value of cash compensation and the grant date fair value of awards that may be made to a non-employee director during any fiscal year of Zebra is limited to $750,000. This limit will not apply to distributions of previously deferred compensation under a deferred compensation plan maintained by Zebra or compensation received by the non-employee director in his or her capacity as an executive officer or employee of Zebra. |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Options | &nbsp;&nbsp;The LTIP provides for the grant of options, which are rights to purchase a specified number of shares at a specified exercise price. <br>The Compensation and Culture Committee will determine:<br>(i)<br>whether an option is an incentive stock option or non-qualified stock option;<br>(ii)<br>the number of shares subject to the option and the purchase price per share, which may not be less than 100% of the fair market value of a share on the date of grant, except in the case of substitute options granted in connection with a corporate transaction;<br>(iii)<br>the period during which the option may be exercised, which may not be later than ten years after the date of grant;<br>(iv)<br>whether such option may be exercisable in whole or in part; and<br>(v)<br>whether the option is subject to specified performance goals during an applicable performance period.<br>|

| &nbsp;&nbsp;Incentive Stock Options | &nbsp;&nbsp;Each incentive stock option will be exercisable for no more than ten years after its date of grant, unless the option holder owns greater than ten percent of the voting power of all shares of Zebra's capital stock (a "Ten Percent Holder"), in which case the option will be exercisable for no more than five years after its date of grant. The exercise price of an incentive stock option will not be less than the fair market value of the common stock on its date of grant, unless the option holder is a Ten Percent Holder, in which case, the option exercise price will be the price required by the Code, currently 110% of fair market value. <br>Subject to the requirements of the Code, the Compensation and Culture Committee will determine all of the terms relating to the exercise or cancellation of an incentive stock option (and tandem SAR) upon a termination of employment, whether by reason of disability, retirement, death or any other reason. |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Stock Appreciation Rights | &nbsp;&nbsp;The LTIP provides for the grant of SARs, which entitles the holder to receive, upon exercise, shares (which may be restricted stock or RSUs), cash or a combination thereof with an aggregate value equal to the excess of the fair market value of one share on the date of exercise over the base price of such SAR. <br>The Compensation and Culture Committee will determine:<br>(i)<br>the number of SARs subject to the award and the base price of the SAR, which may not be less than 100% of the fair market value of a share on the date of grant, except in the case of substitute SARs granted in connection with a corporate transaction;<br>(ii)<br>the period during which the SAR may be exercised;<br>(iii)<br>whether the SAR may be exercisable in whole or in part;<br>(iv)<br>whether the SAR may be exercised for shares (including restricted stock or RSUs), cash or a combination thereof; and<br>(v)<br>whether the SAR is subject to specified performance goals during an applicable performance period.<br>|
| &nbsp;&nbsp;No Repricing of Options or Stock Appreciation Rights | &nbsp;&nbsp;Subject to capitalization adjustments as set forth in the LTIP or except in connection with a Change in Control as described below, the terms of an outstanding option or SAR may not be amended to:<br>(i)<br>reduce the exercise price or base price; <br>(ii)<br>cancel any previously granted option or SAR in exchange for another option or SAR with a lower exercise price or base price; <br>(iii)<br>cancel any previously granted option or SAR in exchange for cash or another award if the exercise price or base price exceeds the fair market value of a share on the date of such cancelation; or <br>(iv)<br>take any other action with respect to an option or SAR that would be treated as a repricing under the rules and regulations of the principal U.S. national securities exchange on which the shares are listed, in each case, without stockholder approval. <br>|
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units | &nbsp;&nbsp;The LTIP provides for the grant of stock awards, which may be subject to a restriction period ("restricted stock"), and of RSUs, which are rights to receive a share, or an equivalent cash value, that is subject to a restriction period. An award of restricted stock or RSUs may be subject to specified performance goals during an applicable performance period. <br>The Compensation and Culture Committee will determine:<br>(i)<br>whether an award will be in restricted stock or RSUs;<br>(ii)<br>the number of shares or RSUs subject to the award;<br>(iii)<br>the length of the restriction period; and<br>(iv)<br>the performance goals, if any (e.g., net sales and cash flows).<br>|

| &nbsp;&nbsp;Performance Awards, Performance Units and Performance Shares | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The LTIP provides for the grant of performance awards, performance units and performance shares. A performance award is a right, contingent upon the attainment of performance goals within a performance period, to receive an amount in cash that has an initial value specified in the award agreement. A performance unit is a right, contingent upon the attainment of performance goals within a performance period, to receive an amount that has an initial value equal to the fair market value of a share on the grant date, which amount may be paid in a share (which may be restricted stock or an RSU), or in lieu of all or a portion thereof, the fair market value of a share in cash. A performance share is a right, contingent upon the attainment of performance goals within a performance period, to receive one share (which may be restricted stock or an RSU), or in lieu of all or a portion thereof, the fair market value of a share in cash.<br>Prior to the settlement of a performance unit or performance share in shares of common stock, the holder of the award will have no rights as a stockholder of Zebra with respect to the shares of common stock subject to the award. <br>The Compensation and Culture Committee will determine:<br>(i)<br>the initial cash value, or number of performance units or shares subject to the award;<br>(ii)<br>the performance goals;<br>(iii)<br>the length of the performance period; and<br>(iv)<br>whether the performance units or performance shares may be settled in shares, cash or a combination thereof.<br>|
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Performance Goals  | &nbsp;&nbsp;Under the LTIP, the grant, vesting or payment of an award may be subject to performance goals established by the Compensation and Culture Committee. Performance goals may include one or more of the following measurements: revenue; primary or fully-diluted earnings per share; EBITDA; pretax income, cash flows from operations; total cash flows; bookings; return on equity; return on invested capital; return on assets; net operating profits after taxes; economic value added; total stockholder return or return on sales; any combination of the foregoing; or such other goals as the Compensation and Culture Committee may determine, whether or not listed in the LTIP.  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Other Stock Awards | &nbsp;&nbsp;The LTIP provides for grants of other stock awards, which may be denominated or payable in, valued in whole or in part by reference to, or based on or related to shares, including without limitation, shares granted as a bonus and not subject to any vesting conditions, dividend equivalents, deferred stock units, stock purchase rights and shares issued in lieu of obligations of Zebra to pay cash under any compensatory plan or arrangement, in each case, subject to terms as determined by the Compensation and Culture Committee.<br>The Compensation and Culture Committee will determine the terms and conditions of such awards. |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Non-Transferability of Awards | &nbsp;&nbsp;Unless otherwise specified in the award agreement, no award may be transferable other than by will, the laws of descent and distribution or pursuant to beneficiary designation procedures approved by Zebra. All incentive stock options granted to a participant will only be exercisable during the participant's lifetime only by the participant. For the avoidance of doubt, no award may be transferred for consideration. |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Minimum Vesting | &nbsp;&nbsp;Notwithstanding any other provision of the LTIP to the contrary, no portion of an award granted under the LTIP (other than cash-based awards) will vest earlier than the first anniversary of the date on which the award is granted; provided, that the following awards shall not be subject to the foregoing minimum vesting requirement: <br>(i)<br>substitute awards granted in connection with awards that are assumed, converted or substituted pursuant to a merger, acquisition or similar transaction entered into by Zebra or any of its subsidiaries; <br>(ii)<br>shares delivered in lieu of fully vested cash obligations; <br>(iii)<br>awards to non-employee directors that vest on earlier of the one-year anniversary of the date of grant and the next annual meeting of stockholders which is at least 50 weeks after the immediately preceding year's annual meeting; and <br>(iv)<br>additional awards the Compensation and Culture Committee may grant, up to a maximum of five percent (5%) of the available share reserve authorized for issuance under the LTIP (subject to capitalization adjustments as set forth in the LTIP). <br>|

 ● Performance Awards – the amount of such award that is payable or earned upon satisfaction of, or banked or accrued under generally accepted accounting principles as an estimate of satisfaction of the applicable performance goals; and ● Performance Units and Performance Shares – the number of awards, share or units multiplied by the greater of: (A) the highest per share price offered to Zebra stockholders in any transaction whereby the Change in Control takes place; or (B) the fair market value of a share on the date of occurrence of the Change in Control.

Federal Income Tax Consequences

The following is a brief summary of certain U.S. federal income tax consequences generally arising with respect to awards under the LTIP. This discussion does not address all aspects of the United States federal income tax consequences of participating in the LTIP that may be relevant to participants in light of their personal investment or tax circumstances and does not discuss any state, local or non-United States tax consequences of participating in the LTIP. Each participant is advised to consult his or her particular tax advisor concerning the application of the United States federal income tax laws to such participant's particular situation, as well as the applicability and effect of any state, local or non-United States tax laws before taking any actions with respect to any awards.

| &nbsp;&nbsp;Option | &nbsp;&nbsp;At the time of an option grant, a participant will not recognize taxable income and Zebra will not be entitled to a tax deduction.<br>Upon exercise of a non-qualified stock option, a participant will recognize compensation taxable as ordinary income (and subject to income tax withholding in respect of an employee) equal to the excess of the fair market value of the shares purchased over their exercise price, and Zebra (or, if applicable, the affiliate employer) will be entitled to a corresponding deduction, subject to any limitations on deductibility for "covered persons" under Section 162(m) of the Code.<br>Upon exercise of an incentive stock option, a participant will not recognize income (except for purposes of the alternative minimum tax). Zebra generally will not be entitled to any corresponding tax deduction.<br>If the shares acquired upon the exercise of an incentive stock option are held for the longer of two years from the date the option was granted and one year from the date it was exercised, any gain or loss arising from a subsequent disposition of such shares will be taxed as long-term capital gain or loss, and Zebra will not be entitled to any deduction. If, however, those shares are disposed of within such two-year period, then in the year of the disposition: (i) the participant will recognize compensation taxable as ordinary income equal to the excess of the lesser of: (A) the amount realized upon the disposition; and (B) the fair market value of those shares on the date of exercise over the exercise price; and (ii) Zebra (or, if applicable, the affiliate employer) will be entitled to a corresponding deduction, subject to any limitations on deductibility for "covered persons" under Section 162(m) of the Code. |

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**4.1.** **Shares Available for Awards.**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)The Shares available for Awards may be either authorized and unissued Shares or Shares issued and re-acquired by Zebra. Subject to the adjustment as provided in Section 4.3, the Share counting rules below, and to all other limits set forth in this Plan, the number of Shares that shall be available for all Awards under this Plan as of the effective date of the Plan, other than Substitute Awards, shall be 2,430,000 Shares<sup>1</sup> reduced by the number of Shares subject to awards granted under the Prior Plans after December 31, 2025 and prior to the effective date of the Plan. Subject to the Share counting rules below, each Share that is subject to an Award granted under the Plan shall be counted against this limit as one Share. After the effective date of the Plan, no awards may be granted under the Prior Plans. Subject to adjustment as provided in Section 4.3, no more than 1,000,000 Shares in the aggregate may be issued under the Plan in connection with Incentive Stock Options.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)After December 31, 2025, to the extent that Shares subject to an outstanding Option, SAR, Restricted Stock, Other Stock Award or RSU granted under the Plan or a Prior Plan, other than Substitute Awards, are not issued or delivered by reason of (i) the expiration, termination, cancellation or forfeiture of such award (excluding Shares subject to an Option cancelled upon settlement in Shares of a related Tandem SAR or Shares subject to a Tandem SAR cancelled upon exercise of a related Option) or (ii) the settlement of such award in cash, then such Shares shall be available again under this Plan. After December 31, 2025, Shares subject to an award granted under this Plan or a Prior Plan, other than an Option or SAR, shall again become available for issuance under this Plan if such Shares are delivered to or withheld by Zebra to pay the withholding taxes payable with respect to such award. Shares subject to an Option or SAR under the Plan or a Prior Plan shall not again be available for issuance under the Plan if such Shares are (x) Shares that were not issued or delivered upon the net settlement or net exercise of such Option or SAR, (y) Shares delivered to or withheld by Zebra to pay the purchase price or the withholding taxes related to such Option or SAR or (z) Shares repurchased by Zebra on the open market with the proceeds of an Option exercise.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)Shares issued or issuable in connection with a Substitute Award shall not be counted against the number of Shares reserved under the Plan, but shall be available under the Plan by virtue of Zebra's assumption of the plan or arrangement of the acquired company or business.

<sup>1</sup> The 2,430,000 Shares are equal to the sum of 1,279,139 Shares that remained available for future grants under the 2018 Plan and 1,150,861 newly-added Shares.

**Section 6**

**Stock Options and Stock Appreciation Rights**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**6.1.** **Grants of Options and SARs**.

An ISO may not be granted to any person who is not an employee of Zebra or any parent or subsidiary (as defined in Section 424 of the Code). Each ISO shall be granted within ten years of the date the Plan is adopted by the Board. To the extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value (determined as of the date of grant) of Shares with respect to which Options designated as ISOs are exercisable for the first time by a Participant during any calendar year (under the Plan or any other plan of Zebra, or any parent or subsidiary as defined in Section 424 of the Code) exceeds the amount established by the Code, such Options shall constitute NQSOs. Non-Tandem SARs, Tandem SARs, or any combination of these forms of SARs may be granted.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**6.2.** **Option Price and Base Price**. The Option Price or base price for each Option or SAR shall be determined by the Committee and set forth in the Award Agreement; provided, that the Option Price shall not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value on the grant date; provided, further, the base price of a Tandem SAR shall be the Option Price per share of the related Option and the base price of a Non-Tandem SAR shall not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of on the grant date. With respect to a Participant who owns, directly or indirectly, more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of the stock of Zebra or any Subsidiary (a "Ten Percent Holder"), the Option Price of Shares subject to an ISO shall be at least 110% of the Fair Market Value of such Shares on the ISO's grant date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an Option or SAR that is a Substitute Award, the Option Price or base price, as applicable, of the Shares subject to such Substitute Award may be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value on the grant date, provided, that the excess of: (a) the aggregate Fair Market Value (as of the date such Substitute Award is granted) of the Shares subject to the Substitute Award, over (b) the aggregate Option Price or base price thereof, as applicable, does not exceed the excess of: (x) the aggregate fair market value (as of the time immediately preceding the transaction giving rise to the Substitute Award, such fair market value to be determined by the Committee) of the shares of the predecessor company or other entity that were subject to the grant assumed or substituted for by Zebra, over (y) the aggregate purchase price or base price, as applicable, of such shares.

PROPOSAL 3 APPROVAL OF 2026 LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PLAN

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**6.3.** **Term**. Each Option or SAR granted to a Participant shall expire at such time as set forth in the Award Agreement, but in no event shall be exercisable later than the tenth anniversary of the grant date; provided that no Tandem SAR shall be exercised later than the expiration, cancellation, forfeiture or other termination of the related Option Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to ISOs, in the case of a Ten Percent Holder, no such ISO shall be exercisable later than the fifth anniversary of the grant date.

Options and SARs shall be exercisable, in whole or in part, at such times and be subject to such restrictions and conditions as set forth in the Award Agreement, which need not be the same for each Award or for each Participant; provided, however, a Tandem SAR may be exercised only with respect to the Shares for which its related Option is then exercisable. Options and SARs shall be exercised by the delivery of a written, electronic or other notice of exercise to Zebra, setting forth the number of Shares with respect to which the Option or SAR is to be exercised, accompanied by payment (or arrangement made for such payment to Zebra's satisfaction) of any withholding taxes and, in the case of Options, by full payment for the Shares as set forth in Section 6.5. Upon exercise of an SAR, a Participant shall be entitled to receive payment (in the form of cash, Shares of equivalent value, or in some combination thereof, as set forth in the Award Agreement) from Zebra in an amount determined by multiplying (a) the excess of the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of exercise over the base price by (b) the number of Shares with respect to which the SAR is exercised.

Any fraction of a Share which would be required to pay the Option Price shall be disregarded and the remaining amount due shall be paid in cash. No book-entry record or certificate representing Shares shall be made or delivered until the full Option Price and any withholding taxes have been paid (or arrangement made for such payment to Zebra's satisfaction).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**6.6.** **No Dividend Equivalents**. Notwithstanding anything in the Award Agreement to the contrary, the holder of an Option or SAR shall not be entitled to receive dividend equivalents with respect to the number of Shares subject to such Option or SAR.

**Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**7.1.** **Grant of Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**7.3.** **Stock Issuance**. During the Vesting Period, the Shares of Restricted Stock shall be held by a custodian in book entry form with restrictions on such Shares duly noted or, alternatively, a certificate or certificates representing a Restricted Stock shall be registered in the holder's name and may bear a legend, in addition to any legend which may be required pursuant to Section 10.7, indicating that the ownership of the Shares represented by such certificate is subject to the restrictions, terms and conditions of this Plan and the Award Agreement relating to the Restricted Stock. All such certificates shall be deposited with Zebra, together with stock powers or other instruments of assignment (including a power of attorney), each endorsed in blank with a guarantee of signature if deemed necessary or appropriate, which would permit transfer to Zebra of all or a portion of the Shares subject to the Restricted Stock in the event such Award is forfeited in whole or in part. Upon termination of any applicable Vesting Period (and the satisfaction or attainment of applicable Performance Goals), subject to Zebra's right to require payment of any taxes in accordance with Section 10.12, the restrictions shall be removed from the requisite number of any Shares that are held in book entry form, and all certificates evidencing ownership of the requisite number of Shares shall be delivered to the holder of such Award.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**10.2.** **Non-Transferability of Awards**. All ISOs granted to a Participant shall be exercisable during his or her lifetime only by the Participant. Unless otherwise specified in the Award Agreement, no Award shall be transferable other than by will, the laws of descent and distribution or pursuant to beneficiary designation procedures approved by Zebra. Except to the extent permitted by the foregoing sentence or the Award Agreement, each Award may be exercised or settled during the Participant's lifetime only by the Participant or the Participant's legal representative or similar person. Except to the extent permitted by the second preceding sentence or the Award Agreement, no Award may be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged, hypothecated, encumbered or otherwise disposed of (whether by operation of law or otherwise) or be subject to execution, attachment or similar process. Upon any attempt to so sell, transfer, assign, pledge, hypothecate, encumber or otherwise dispose of any such Award, such Award and all rights thereunder shall immediately become null and void.

Each such designation shall revoke all prior designations by the same Participant, shall be in a form prescribed by Zebra, and will be effective only when filed by the Participant in writing with Zebra's Human Resources Department during the Participant's lifetime. The spouse of a married Participant domiciled in a community property jurisdiction shall join in any designation of a beneficiary other than such spouse. If a Participant fails to designate a beneficiary, or if all designated beneficiaries of a Participant predecease the Participant, then each outstanding Option and SAR hereunder held by such Participant, to the extent exercisable, may be exercised by such Participant's executor, administrator, legal representative or similar person. In the absence of any such designation, benefits remaining unpaid at the Participant's death shall be paid to the Participant's estate.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**10.4.** **Deferrals; Compliance with Section 409A**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)The Committee, in its sole discretion, may include in an Award Agreement provisions that permit a Participant to defer receipt of payment of cash or delivery of Shares that would otherwise be due to such Participant upon the exercise, lapse or waiver of restrictions, or satisfaction of any requirements, goal or target with respect to such Award (other than Awards of Options and SARs). Such deferral provisions shall be consistent with Section 409A of the Code and applicable regulations and shall be made in accordance with such terms and conditions as the Committee may establish from time to time or as may be provided in any applicable employment, severance, consulting or similar agreement between Zebra or any of its Subsidiaries and the Participant or in any deferred compensation plan maintained by Zebra.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)Awards under the Plan are intended to comply with, or be exempt from, the applicable requirements of Section 409A of the Code and shall be limited, construed and interpreted in accordance with such intent. Although Zebra does not guarantee any particular tax treatment, to the extent that any Award is subject to Section 409A of the Code, it shall be paid in a manner that is intended to comply with Section 409A of the Code, including regulations and any other guidance issued by the Secretary of the Treasury and the Internal Revenue Service with respect thereto. In no event whatsoever shall Zebra be liable for any additional tax, interest or penalties that may be imposed on the Participant by Section 409A of the Code or any damages for failing to comply with Section 409A of the Code. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan or any Award Agreement to the contrary, each Participant shall be solely responsible for the tax consequences of awards, and in no event shall Zebra have any responsibility or liability if an award does not meet any applicable requirements of Section 409A of the Code. Although Zebra intends to administer the Plan to prevent taxation under Section 409A of the Code, Zebra does not represent or warrant that the Plan or any award complies with Section 409A of the Code or any other provision of federal, state, local or other tax law.

PROPOSAL 3 APPROVAL OF 2026 LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PLAN

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)Any payments to Participants pursuant to this Plan are also intended to be exempt from Section 409A of the Code to the maximum extent possible, first, to the extent such payments are scheduled to be paid and are in fact paid during the short-term deferral period, as short-term deferrals pursuant to Treasury regulation §1.409A-1(b)(4), and then, if applicable, under the separation pay exemption pursuant to Treasury regulation §1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii), and for this purpose each payment shall be considered a separate payment such that the determination of whether a payment qualifies as a short-term deferral shall be made without regard to whether other payments so qualify and the determination of whether a payment qualifies under the separation pay exemption shall be made without regard to any payments which qualify as short-term deferrals. To the extent any amounts under this Plan are payable by reference to a Participant's "termination of employment" or "termination of service," such terms shall be deemed to refer to the Participant's "separation from service," within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Plan, if a Participant is a "specified employee," as defined in Section 409A of the Code, as of the date of the Participant's separation from service, then to the extent any amount payable under this Plan (i) constitutes the payment of nonqualified deferred compensation, within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code, (ii) is payable upon the Participant's separation from service and (iii) under the terms of this Plan would be payable prior to the six-month anniversary of the Participant's separation from service, such payment shall be delayed until the earlier to occur of (A) the six-month anniversary of the separation from service or (B) the date of the Participant's death.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**10.5.** **No Guarantee of Employment or Service or Right to Participate**. Nothing in the Plan shall interfere with or limit in any way the right of Zebra to terminate any Participant's employment or service at any time, nor confer upon any Participant any right to continue in the employ of or service with Zebra or any Subsidiary. Temporary absence from employment because of illness, vacation, approved leaves of absence, and transfers of employment among Zebra and its Subsidiaries, shall not be considered to terminate employment or to interrupt continuous employment. Temporary cessation of the provision of services because of illness, vacation or any other reason approved in advance by Zebra shall not be considered a termination of service or an interruption of the continuity thereof.

Except as otherwise provided in an Award Agreement, conversion of a Participant's employment relationship to a consulting arrangement or service as a Director, or vice versa, shall not result in termination of previously granted Awards. No Employee, Director or consultant shall have the right to be selected to receive an Award under the Plan, or, having been so selected, to be selected to receive a future Award.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**10.6.** **Restrictions on Shares**. Each Award made hereunder shall be subject to the requirement that if at any time Zebra determines that the listing, registration or qualification of the Shares subject to such Award upon any securities exchange or under any law, or the consent or approval of any governmental body, or the taking of any other action is necessary or desirable as a condition of, or in connection with, the delivery of Shares thereunder, such Shares shall not be delivered unless such listing, registration, qualification, consent, approval or other action shall have been effected or obtained, free of any conditions not acceptable to Zebra. Zebra may require that certificates evidencing Shares delivered pursuant to any award made hereunder bear a legend indicating that the sale, transfer or other disposition thereof by the holder is prohibited except in compliance with the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder.

PROPOSAL 3 APPROVAL OF 2026 LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PLAN

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**10.11.** **Amendment, Modification, and Termination**. The Board may amend, suspend or terminate the Plan or the Committee's authority to grant Awards without the consent of stockholders or Participants; provided, however, that any amendment to the Plan shall be submitted to Zebra's stockholders for approval not later than the earliest annual meeting for which the record date is after the date of such Board action if (a) such stockholder approval is required by any federal or state law or regulation or the rules of any stock exchange on which the Shares may then be listed or quoted and the Board may otherwise, in its sole discretion, determine to submit other amendments to the Plan to stockholders for approval or (b) such amendment seeks to modify the Non-Employee Director compensation limit set forth in Section 4.2 or the prohibition on repricing set forth in Section 10.16; and provided, further, that, without the consent of an affected Participant, no Board or Committee action may materially and adversely affect the rights of such Participant under any outstanding Award, unless such action is determined by the Board or Committee in good faith to be necessary to comply with any applicable law, regulation or rule (including Section 409A of the Code). Subject to the preceding sentence, the Committee may waive or modify any term of an Award to the extent that the terms of the Award Agreement, taking the waiver or modification into account, would have been permissible if included in the original Award Agreement, but shall have no authority to waive or modify any other Award term after the Award has been granted to the extent that the waived or modified term was mandatory under the Plan.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**10.12.** **Tax Withholding**. Zebra shall have the power and the right to deduct or withhold, or require a Participant to remit to Zebra, an amount sufficient to satisfy federal, state, and local taxes, domestic or foreign, required by law or regulation to be withheld with respect to any taxable event arising as a result of the Plan. With respect to withholding required upon any taxable event arising as a result of Awards granted hereunder, Participants may elect, subject to the approval of Zebra (or, in the case of a Participant subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act, the Committee), to satisfy the withholding requirement, in whole or in part, by having Zebra withhold Shares having a Fair Market Value, determined as of the date the obligation to withhold or pay taxes arises in connection with an Award, in an amount that does not exceed the minimum statutory total tax which would be imposed on the transaction (or, if permitted by the Committee, based on a higher withholding rate in an amount that does not exceed the maximum statutory total tax which would be imposed on the transaction within the applicable jurisdictions). All such elections shall be irrevocable, made in writing, signed by the Participant, and shall be subject to any restrictions or limitations that Zebra deems appropriate.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**10.13.** **Rights as Stockholder**. No person shall have any right as a stockholder of Zebra with respect to any Shares or other equity security of Zebra which is subject to an Award hereunder unless and until such person becomes a stockholder of record with respect to such Shares.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**10.14.** **Unfunded Plan**. The Plan is intended to constitute an "unfunded" plan for incentive and deferred compensation. With respect to any payments not yet made to a Participant or obligation to deliver Shares pursuant to an Award, nothing contained in the Plan or any Award shall give any such Participant any rights that are greater than those of a general creditor of Zebra; provided, however, that the Committee may authorize the creation of trusts and deposit therein cash, Shares, other Awards or other property, or make other arrangements to meet Zebra's obligations under the Plan. Such trusts or other arrangements shall be consistent with the "unfunded" status of the Plan unless the Committee otherwise determines with the consent of each affected Participant.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**10.15.** **Fractional Shares**. No fractional Shares shall be issued or delivered pursuant to the Plan or any Award. Zebra shall determine whether cash, other Awards or other property shall be issued or paid in lieu of such fractional Shares or whether such fractional Shares or any rights thereto shall be forfeited or otherwise eliminated.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**10.16.** **No Repricing of Options or Stock Appreciation Rights**. Notwithstanding anything in this Plan to the contrary, the terms of outstanding Options or SARs may not be amended, without the approval of stockholders of Zebra, to (a) reduce the Option Price or base price of any previously granted Option or SAR, (b) cancel any previously granted Option or SAR in exchange for another Option or SAR with a lower purchase price or base price, (c) cancel any previously granted Option or SAR in exchange for cash or another Award if the Option Price of such Option or the base price of such SAR exceeds the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of such cancellation or (d) take any other action with respect to an Option or SAR that would be treated as a repricing under the rules and regulations of the principal U.S. national securities exchange on which the Shares are listed, in each case, other than in connection with a Change in Control or the adjustment provisions set forth in Section 4.3.

PROPOSAL 3 APPROVAL OF 2026 LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PLAN

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**10.17.** **Awards to Participants Outside the United States**. The Committee may modify the terms of any Award made to or held by a Participant who is then resident or primarily employed outside of the United States in any manner deemed by the Committee to be necessary or appropriate in order that such Award shall conform to laws, regulations, and customs of the country in which the Participant is then resident or primarily employed, or so that the value and other benefits of the Award to the Participant, as affected by foreign tax laws and other restrictions, applicable as a result of the Participant's residence or employment abroad shall be comparable to the value of such an Award to a Participant who is resident or primarily employed in the United States. An Award may be modified under this Section in a manner that is inconsistent with the express terms of the Plan, so long as such modifications will not contravene any applicable law or regulation or result in actual liability under Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act for the Participant whose Award is modified.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**10.18.** **Clawback**. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, any Awards granted under this Plan shall be subject to potential cancellation, recoupment, rescission, payback or other action in accordance with the terms of Zebra's Clawback Policy, Accounting Restatement Clawback Policy, or any other clawback policy implemented by Zebra, as each may be amended from time to time (the "Policies"). The Participant agrees and consents to Zebra's application, implementation and enforcement of (a) the Policies or any similar policy established by Zebra that may apply to the Participant and/or the Awards granted hereunder and (b) any provision of applicable law relating to cancellation, rescission, payback or recoupment of compensation, and expressly agrees that Zebra may take such actions as are necessary to effectuate the Policies, any similar policy (as applicable to the Participant and/or the Awards granted hereunder) or applicable law without further consent or action being required by the Participant. Zebra's rights under the Policies shall be in addition to, and not in substitution of, Zebra's rights under the Plan or otherwise and, in all events, the terms of the Policies shall prevail to the extent that the terms of the Policies conflict with the Plan or any other plan, program, agreement or arrangement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**10.19.** **Protected Rights.** Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, nothing in this Plan is intended to not prohibit a Participant from providing truthful information in good faith to any federal or state governmental agency, entity or official investigating an alleged violation of federal or state law or regulation. Nothing in this Plan prohibits a Participant from engaging in legally protected conduct, including reporting possible violations of federal law or regulation to any governmental agency or entity, including but not limited to the Department of Justice, the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Congress, and any agency Inspector General, or making other disclosures that are protected under the whistleblower provisions of federal law or regulation. Further, Participants shall not be held criminally or civilly liable under any federal or state trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that: (a) is made (i) in confidence to a federal, state, or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney; and (ii) solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law; or (b) is made in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal. Further, if a Participant files a lawsuit for retaliation by Zebra for reporting a suspected violation of law, a Participant may disclose the trade secret to the Participant's attorney and use the trade secret information in the court proceeding, if (a) the Participant files any document containing the trade secret under seal; and (b) does not disclose the trade secret, except pursuant to court order.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**10.20.** **Successors**. All obligations of Zebra under the Plan with respect to Awards shall be binding on any successor to Zebra, whether the existence of such successor is the result of a direct or indirect merger, consolidation, purchase of all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of Zebra or otherwise.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**10.21.** **Governing Law**. To the extent not preempted by federal law, the Plan, and all agreements hereunder, shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of Delaware without giving effect to principles of conflicts of laws.

## Proposal 4
**Ratification of Appointment of Independent Auditors**

The Audit Committee appointed Ernst & Young LLP, independent certified public accountants, as auditors of Zebra's consolidated financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2026. Ernst & Young LLP has served as Zebra's independent certified public accountants since 2005.

The Board of Directors gives stockholders the opportunity to express their opinions on the matter of auditors for Zebra and, accordingly, is submitting a proposal to ratify the Audit Committee's appointment of Ernst & Young LLP. If this proposal does not receive the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast at the Annual Meeting, the Audit Committee may appoint another independent registered public accounting firm or may decide to maintain the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP.

Zebra expects that representatives of Ernst & Young LLP will be present at the Annual Meeting and available to respond to questions. These representatives will be given an opportunity to make a statement if they would like to do so.

Fees of Independent Auditors

## Report of the Audit Committee
The Audit Committee of Zebra's Board of Directors is comprised of five directors, all of whom are independent under applicable listing requirements of The Nasdaq Stock Market. The Audit Committee operates under a written Charter adopted by the Board of Directors. The members of the Audit Committee are: Mr. Miller, Chair, Mses. Connly and Connors, and Messrs. Manire and Modruson.

The Audit Committee has received reports from, met with, and held discussions with management, the internal audit team, and the independent accountants. It reviewed and discussed Zebra's audited financial statements with management, and management has represented to the Audit Committee that Zebra's financial statements were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and that such financial statements taken as a whole, present fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein. The Audit Committee also discussed with the independent accountants the matters required to be discussed by the applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board and the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Audit Committee received the written disclosures and letter from the independent accountants required by applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding the independent accountants' communications with the Audit Committee concerning independence and discussed with the independent accountants the independent accountants' independence.

The Audit Committee recommended that the Board of Directors include Zebra's audited financial statements in Zebra's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. This recommendation was based on the Audit Committee's review and discussions with management, the internal audit team and Zebra's independent accountants, as well as the Audit Committee's reliance on management's representations described above.

General Information About the Annual Meeting and These Proxy Materials

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● By telephone — You may vote your shares by calling (800) 690-6903. If you vote by telephone, you do not need to return a proxy card by mail.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● By mail — If you received your proxy materials by mail, you may vote your shares by marking, dating, and signing your proxy card and returning it in the enclosed postage-paid envelope.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● At the Annual Meeting — Whether or not you choose to vote via the Internet, by telephone, or by mail, you may attend the Annual Meeting and vote your shares during the meeting. You will need the 16-digit control number included on your proxy card or Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials to vote at the Annual Meeting. If you have already voted before the Annual Meeting, you may still attend the Annual Meeting. Attendance at the Annual Meeting will not, by itself, revoke a previously submitted proxy. If you are a stockholder of record who has previously voted by proxy and you vote during the Annual Meeting, your vote cast at the Annual Meeting will replace your earlier proxy vote.

Proxies submitted by telephone or via the Internet (including QR code) must be received by 11:59 p.m., Eastern Time, on May 18, 2026. We encourage you to vote by Internet as instructed on the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials or proxy card.

**Beneficial Owners.** If you held shares of Class A Common Stock as of the record date in an account at a broker, bank, or other nominee, you are considered the "beneficial owner" of shares held in "street name," and you should have received a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials or voting instruction card and voting instructions with these proxy materials from that organization rather than from us. To ensure that your vote is counted, follow the directions set forth on the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials or voting instruction card and the voting instructions that you receive. To vote during the Annual Meeting, you will need the 16-digit control number included on your Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials or voting instruction card.

**How Do I Revoke My Proxy?**

**Holders of Record.** If you are a stockholder of record who has previously submitted a proxy, you may revoke your proxy at any time before the proxy holders vote your shares at the Annual Meeting by:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● Submitting a later-dated proxy via the Internet, by telephone, or by mail (in each case, by the applicable deadline for such voting method);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● Delivering written notice of revocation to Zebra's Chief Legal Officer, General Counsel & Corporate Secretary so that it is received before the proxy holders vote your shares at the Annual Meeting; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● Voting electronically during the Annual Meeting.

Attendance at the Annual Meeting alone will not revoke a previously submitted proxy. However, if you are a stockholder of record and you vote during the Annual Meeting, your vote cast at the Annual Meeting will replace your earlier proxy vote.

**Beneficial Owners.** If you are a beneficial owner of shares held in street name, you must follow the procedures provided by your bank, broker, or other nominee to revoke your proxy.

**What if I Do Not Specify How My Shares Are to Be Voted?**

**Holders of Record.** The Board has appointed Michael Steele, Vice President, Investor Relations, and Cristen Kogl, Chief Legal Officer, General Counsel and Corporate Secretary, to serve as proxy holders for the Annual Meeting. By submitting a proxy, you authorize the proxy holders to vote your shares, jointly or individually, in the manner you indicate. If you are a stockholder of record and you submit a dated and signed proxy without specifying how your shares are to be voted, your shares will be voted:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● **FOR** the election of each of the four Class III director nominees (Proposal 1);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● **FOR** the approval, on an advisory basis, of the compensation of our Named Executive Officers (Proposal 2);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● **FOR** the approval of the 2026 Long-Term Incentive Plan (Proposal 3);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● **FOR** the ratification of the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as our independent auditors for 2026 (Proposal 4); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● In the discretion of the proxy holder with respect to any other matters that may properly come before the Annual Meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof.

**Beneficial Owners.** If you are a beneficial owner of shares held in street name and you do not provide voting instructions to your bank, broker, or other nominee, that organization will determine whether it has discretionary authority to vote your shares on a particular matter. Under applicable rules, banks, brokers, and other nominees generally have discretionary authority to vote on routine matters, such as Proposal 4, but do not have discretionary authority to vote on non-routine matters, such as Proposals 1, 2 and 3. As a result, if you do not provide voting instructions, your bank, broker, or other nominee may vote your shares only on Proposal 4 and any other routine matters properly presented for a vote at the Annual Meeting.

General Information About the Annual Meeting and These Proxy Materials

**What Constitutes a Quorum and Why Is a Quorum Required?**

Under the By-Laws, the holders of a majority of the shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting, present in person or represented by proxy, constitutes a quorum for the transaction of business at the Annual Meeting. Virtual attendance at the Annual Meeting constitutes presence in person for quorum purposes. Abstentions, as well as broker non-votes, are counted for purposes of determining whether a quorum is present. Shares owned by Zebra are not voted and do not count toward the quorum.

If a quorum is not present or represented by proxy, holders of a majority of the voting power present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting may adjourn the meeting to another place, date, or time.

**What Are Broker Non-Votes?**

Brokers, banks, or other nominees holding shares on behalf of a beneficial owner may vote those shares in their discretion on certain "routine" matters even if they do not receive timely voting instructions from the beneficial owner. With respect to "non-routine" matters, the broker, bank, or other nominee is not permitted to vote shares for a beneficial owner without timely received voting instructions.

A broker non-vote occurs when a bank, broker, or other nominee does not receive voting instructions from a beneficial owner and does not have discretionary authority to vote the shares on a particular proposal. If you are a beneficial owner of shares held by a bank, broker, or other nominee holding shares on your behalf, we urge you to submit your voting instructions to your bank, broker, or other nominee in advance of the Annual Meeting.

Broker non-votes are not considered votes cast on any proposal at the Annual Meeting and, therefore, will have no effect on the outcome of any matter submitted for a vote at the Annual Meeting.

**What Happens if the Annual Meeting Is Adjourned or Postponed?**

If the Annual Meeting is adjourned or postponed, your proxy will remain valid and will be voted at the rescheduled meeting unless it is properly revoked or changed prior to being voted. You may revoke or change your proxy at any time before the proxy holders vote your shares at the adjourned or postponed meeting, as described above.

**Who Is Paying for the Costs of this Proxy Solicitation?**

Zebra will bear the cost of soliciting proxies for the Annual Meeting. We have retained Alliance Advisors LLC to assist in the solicitation of proxies for a fee of $26,000, plus reimbursement of reasonable out-of-pocket expenses.

In addition to solicitation by mail, proxies may be solicited electronically, by telephone, or in person by certain of Zebra's directors, officers, and employees. These individuals will not receive additional compensation for such solicitation but may be reimbursed for out-of-pocket expenses associated with solicitation.

Copies of proxy materials and the Annual Report will be furnished to banks, brokers, and other nominees for forwarding to beneficial owners of shares of Class A Common Stock held in street name, and Zebra may reimburse such banks, brokers, and other nominees for their reasonable expenses incurred in connection with forwarding these materials and obtaining voting instructions.

**How Can I Find the Results of the Annual Meeting?**

Preliminary voting results will be announced at the Annual Meeting. Final voting results will be reported in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission within four business days after the Annual Meeting. If the final voting results are not available at the time the Form 8-K is filed, Zebra will report the preliminary results in the Form 8-K and will file an amendment to the Form 8-K to disclose the final results as soon as they become available.

General Information About the Annual Meeting and These Proxy Materials

Do I Have Electronic Access to the Proxy Materials and Annual Report?

**Holders of Record.** For holders of record, we are pleased to offer the opportunity to receive stockholder communications electronically. By signing up for electronic delivery of documents such as our annual reports and proxy statements, you can access stockholder communications as soon as they are publicly available without waiting for them to arrive in the mail. Holders of record can also reduce the number of documents in their personal files, eliminate duplicate mailings, conserve natural resources, and help reduce our printing and mailing costs. If you are a holder of record and would like to receive stockholder communications electronically in the future, please contact Computershare at (800) 522 - 6645 or (201) 680 - 6578. Enrollment is effective until canceled.

**Beneficial Owners.** Beneficial owners should refer to the information provided by their bank, broker, or other nominee for instructions on how to elect to receive documents such as our annual reports and proxy statements via the Internet.

Why Did I Receive a Notice in the Mail Regarding the Internet Availability of Proxy Materials Instead of a Full Set of Printed Materials?

Pursuant to rules adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission, we have elected to provide access to our proxy materials via the Internet. Accordingly, we are sending a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials to all stockholders as of the record date. You may access these proxy materials on the website referred to in the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials. You may also request to receive a printed set of these proxy materials. Instructions on how to access these proxy materials via the Internet and how to request a printed copy can be found in the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials. Additionally, by following the instructions in the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials, you may request to receive proxy materials in printed form by mail or electronically by e-mail on an ongoing basis. Choosing to receive your future proxy materials by e-mail will save Zebra the cost of printing and mailing documents to you and will reduce the impact of our annual meetings on the environment.

Why Did My Household Receive Only One Copy of the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials or Proxy Materials?

The rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission allow us to deliver a single Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials or set of proxy materials to one address shared by two or more of our stockholders. This delivery method is referred to as "householding" and can result in significant cost savings.
