Whether or not you plan to attend the meeting, please vote as promptly as possible to make sure your vote is counted. Every stockholder vote is important, and we want to ensure your shares are represented at the meeting.<br>In 2022, we exhibited another year of steady execution and delivered solid financial results. The strength and agility of our business model have been demonstrated as we've navigated a constantly changing operating environment while simultaneously growing customers, enhancing our digital capabilities, optimizing the balance sheet, and diversifying revenues.<br>Our long-term success is underpinned by our purpose-driven 'Do It Right' culture and relentless focus on delivering for our customers, employees, and communities. For our customers, we introduced CoverDraft, a service that further enhances overdraft protection, building on our decision to eliminate overdraft fees. For our employees, we increased our minimum wage to $23 per hour and announced another year of #OwnIt grants, which further instill an ownership mentality across the organization.

Solicitation

The solicitation of your proxy is made on behalf of the Board of Directors of Ally Financial Inc. (Board) for use at our 2023 annual meeting of stockholders to be held on May 3, 2023, and any adjournment of the meeting (Annual Meeting). References in this proxy statement to we, us, our, the Company, and Ally refer to Ally Financial Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries, unless the context requires otherwise.

This proxy statement and the related form of proxy will first be sent or given on or about March 21, 2023, to the stockholders of record of our common stock at the close of business on March 7, 2023 (record date). This proxy statement and our annual report for the year ended December 31, 2022, also will first be made available on our website at *www.ally.com/about/investor/sec-filings/*, free of charge, at or about the same time.

The complete mailing address of the Company's principal executive office is 500 Woodward Avenue, MC: MI-01-10-CORPSEC, Detroit, Michigan 48226. The Annual Meeting will be held at the JW Marriott Charlotte, 600 South College Street, Charlotte, North Carolina 28202.

Electronic Availability of Proxy Materials for the Annual Meeting

Important Notice Regarding the Availability of Proxy Materials for the Stockholder Meeting To Be Held on May 3, 2023. This proxy statement, our annual report to stockholders for fiscal year 2022, and our Form 10-K for fiscal year 2022 are available electronically at *www.proxyvote.com/ALLY*.

Voting Rights and Procedures

Stockholders of record at the close of business on the record date may vote at the Annual Meeting. As of the record date, 300,810,824 shares of our common stock were issued and outstanding and, therefore, eligible to be voted at the Annual Meeting. Only one class of our common stock exists, and each share is entitled to one vote.

Stockholders of record or record holders have shares of our common stock registered in their names with our transfer agent, Computershare Inc. Beneficial owners, in contrast, own shares of our common stock that are held in "street name" through a broker, bank, or other nominee. Beneficial owners generally cannot vote their shares directly and must instead instruct their brokers, banks, or other nominees how to vote the shares. If you are a beneficial owner of our common stock, your proxy is being solicited through your broker, bank, or other nominee.

---

##### [**Table of Contents**](#toc)
You may vote FOR, AGAINST, or ABSTAIN on each of the three proposals. The Board recommends that you vote as follows:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| | Board Voting Recommendations |
| &nbsp;&nbsp; Proposal 1 | FOR the election of each of the 11 nominees to our Board. |
| &nbsp;&nbsp; Proposal 2 | FOR the advisory resolution approving the compensation paid to our named executive officers. |
| &nbsp;&nbsp; Proposal 3 | FOR the ratification of the Audit Committee's engagement of Deloitte & Touche LLP as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for 2023. |

---

When this proxy statement was printed, we did not know of any matter to be presented at the Annual Meeting other than these three proposals. If any other matter may be properly considered at the Annual Meeting, your proxy can exercise discretion in voting your shares on the matter. We currently do not anticipate that any other matter will be presented at the Annual Meeting.

We expect that the election of directors in Proposal 1 will be uncontested—that is, an election where the number of properly nominated director candidates does not exceed the number of directors to be elected. In that case, each director will be elected by a majority of the votes cast with respect to the director. This means that the number of votes cast FOR a director nominee must exceed the number of votes cast AGAINST that director nominee. If an incumbent director nominee fails to receive a majority of the votes cast in an uncontested election, our director resignation policy will apply as described further in Proposal 1. Voting ABSTAIN on Proposal 1 in an uncontested election will have no effect on the outcome.

If the election of directors in Proposal 1 unexpectedly becomes contested—that is, an election where the number of properly nominated director candidates exceeds the number of directors to be elected—plurality voting will apply. This means that the seats on the Board will be filled by the director nominees who receive the highest number of FOR votes. Voting AGAINST or ABSTAIN in a contested election will have no effect on the outcome.

For Proposals 2 and 3, a FOR vote from a majority of the outstanding shares present or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on the proposal will be required for approval. Voting ABSTAIN on any of these proposals will have the same effect as voting AGAINST.

We strongly encourage all stockholders to submit their votes in advance of the Annual Meeting, even if you are planning to attend in person.

If you are a record holder, you may vote your shares (1) through the internet, (2) by telephone, (3) by completing, signing, dating, and returning your proxy card in the provided envelope, or (4) in person by ballot at the Annual Meeting. Other proxy materials that you receive together with this proxy statement contain the website address and the telephone number for internet or telephone voting. Internet or telephone votes or completed, signed, and dated proxy cards must be received prior to the Annual Meeting in order to be counted. If you as a record holder submit a valid proxy prior to the Annual Meeting but do not provide voting instructions, your shares will be voted according to the recommendations of the Board described earlier in this section.

If you are a beneficial owner, you may not vote your shares directly but instead may instruct your broker, bank, or other nominee how to vote your shares. You should receive materials from your broker, bank, or other nominee with directions on how to provide voting instructions. Those materials also will identify the time by which your broker, bank, or other nominee must receive your voting instructions. The availability of internet or telephone voting will depend on the processes adopted by your broker, bank, or other nominee. If you want to vote your shares in person at the Annual Meeting, you will need to obtain a legally enforceable proxy from your broker, bank, or other nominee in advance and present that proxy to the inspectors of election together with a valid form of government-issued photo identification (such as a driver's license or passport). For Proposals 1 and 2, if you are a beneficial owner of shares, your broker, bank, or other nominee is not permitted to vote your shares if no instruction is received from you. For Proposal 3, your broker, bank, or other nominee can exercise discretion in voting your shares if no instruction is received from you.

##### [**Table of Contents**](#toc)
You may revoke or change your proxy at any time before the vote is taken at the Annual Meeting. If you are a record holder, you may revoke or change your proxy by (1) executing and delivering a later-dated proxy for the same shares in compliance with the requirements described in this proxy statement, (2) voting the same shares again over the internet or telephone prior to the Annual Meeting, (3) voting a ballot at the Annual Meeting, or (4) notifying the Secretary of your revocation of the proxy prior to the Annual Meeting. If you are a beneficial owner, you must follow the directions provided to you by your broker, bank, or other nominee. Any beneficial owner of shares who wants to revoke a proxy at the Annual Meeting will need to present to the inspectors of election a legally enforceable proxy from the broker, bank, or other nominee indicating that the person is the beneficial owner of the shares together with a valid form of government-issued photo identification (such as a driver's license or passport).

We will pay the costs of preparing the proxy materials and soliciting proxies, including the reasonable charges and expenses of brokers, banks, and other nominees for forwarding proxy materials to beneficial owners and updating proxy cards and directions. In addition to our solicitation of proxies, your proxy may be solicited by telephone, facsimile, internet, or e-mail or in person by directors, officers, or regular employees of Ally or its affiliates who will receive no additional compensation for doing so.

Internet and telephone voting procedures are designed to authenticate stockholders' identities, allow stockholders to provide their voting instructions, and confirm that stockholders' instructions have been recorded properly. While we and Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. do not charge stockholders any fees for voting by internet or telephone, there may still be costs—such as usage charges from internet-service providers and telephone companies—for which stockholders are responsible when voting by internet or telephone.

Meeting Admission

Attendance at the Annual Meeting will be limited to stockholders of record or their proxies, beneficial owners of our common stock, and our guests. A record holder or beneficial owner must request an admission ticket in advance by visiting *www.proxyvote.com/ally* and following the instructions provided, which will require the 16-digit number included on your proxy card or voting instructions. Requests for admission tickets will be processed in the order in which they are received and must be submitted no later than May 1, 2023. At the Annual Meeting, each record holder, beneficial owner, or guest may be required to present a valid form of government-issued photo identification, such as a driver's license or passport, to gain admittance.

Cautionary Notice About Forward-Looking Statements and Other Terms

This proxy statement and related communications contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements can be identified by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts — such as statements about the outlook for financial and operating metrics and performance, and future capital allocation and actions. Forward-looking statements often use words such as "believe," "expect," "anticipate," "intend," "pursue," "seek," "continue," "estimate," "project," "outlook," "forecast," "potential," "target," "objective," "trend," "plan," "goal," "initiative," "priorities," or other words of comparable meaning or future-tense or conditional verbs such as "may," "will," "should," "would," or "could." Forward-looking statements convey our expectations, intentions, or forecasts about future events, circumstances, or results. All forward-looking statements, by their nature, are subject to assumptions, risks, and uncertainties, which may change over time and many of which are beyond our control. You should not rely on any forward-looking statement as a prediction or guarantee about the future.

Actual future objectives, strategies, plans, prospects, performance, conditions, or results may differ materially from those set forth in any forward-looking statement. Some of the factors that may cause actual results or other future events or circumstances to differ from those in forward-looking statements are described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, our subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q or Current Reports on Form 8-K, or other applicable documents that are filed or furnished with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (collectively, our **SEC filings**). Any forward-looking statement made by us or on our behalf speaks only as of the date that it was made. We do not undertake to update any forward-looking statement to reflect the impact of events, circumstances, or results that arise after the date that the statement was made, except as required by applicable securities laws. You, however, should consult further disclosures (including disclosures of a forward-looking nature) that we may make in any subsequent SEC filings.

This proxy statement and related communications contain specifically identified non-GAAP financial measures, which supplement the results that are reported according to U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). These non-GAAP financial

measures may be useful to investors but should not be viewed in isolation from, or as a substitute for, GAAP results. Differences between non-GAAP financial measures and comparable GAAP financial measures are reconciled in this proxy statement or the related communication.

Unless the context otherwise requires, the following definitions apply. The term "loans" means the following consumer and commercial products associated with our direct and indirect financing activities: loans, retail installment sales contracts, lines of credit, and other financing products excluding operating leases. The term "operating leases" means consumer- and commercial-vehicle lease agreements where Ally is the lessor and the lessee is generally not obligated to acquire ownership of the vehicle at lease-end or compensate Ally for the vehicle's residual value. The terms "lend," "finance," and "originate" mean our direct extension or origination of loans, our purchase or acquisition of loans, or our purchase of operating leases as applicable. The term "consumer" means all consumer products associated with our loan and operating-lease activities and all commercial retail installment sales contracts. The term "commercial" means all commercial products associated with our loan activities, other than commercial retail installment sales contracts. The term "partnerships" means business arrangements rather than partnerships as defined by law.

## proposal 1

## election of directors
Board Composition

The Board currently has 12 seats and, effective at the time of the election of directors at the Annual Meeting, will have 11 seats. The Board believes that this size is appropriate at the present time based on its assessment of the need for particular talents or other qualities, the benefits associated with a diversity of perspectives and backgrounds, the availability of qualified candidates, the workloads and needs of the Board's committees, and other relevant factors. The Board also assesses whether its composition, governance structure, and practices support Ally's safety and soundness and its ability to promote compliance with applicable law while taking into account its asset size, complexity, scope of operations, risk appetite, risk capacity, and changes in these factors. All seats on the Board are up for election annually. The Compensation, Nominating, and Governance Committee (CNGC) has recommended, and the Board has nominated, the following slate of 11 director candidates for election at the Annual Meeting to hold office until the next annual meeting of stockholders in 2024. Each has agreed to be nominated and named in this proxy statement and to serve if elected. This slate comprises all of the current directors of Ally, except for Maureen A.

We expect that this will be an uncontested election of directors*—*that is, an election where the number of properly nominated director candidates does not exceed the number of directors to be elected. In that case, under our Bylaws, each director will be elected by a majority of the votes cast with respect to the director. A "majority of the votes cast" means that the number of shares voted FOR a director nominee must exceed the number of shares voted AGAINST that director nominee. Voting ABSTAIN in an uncontested election will have no effect on the outcome.

Under Delaware law and our Bylaws, each director will hold office until a successor is duly elected and qualified or until the director's earlier death, resignation, or removal. The Company has adopted a director resignation policy providing that, if an incumbent director nominee fails to receive a majority of the votes cast in an uncontested election, the director must promptly tender a notice of resignation to the Company's Chief Executive Officer (CEO) or Secretary, which will become effective only upon acceptance by the Board. The CEO or the Secretary, as applicable, will relay a copy of the notice to the Chair of the Board and the Chair of the CNGC. The CNGC will make a recommendation to the Board as to whether the resignation should be accepted or rejected or whether other action should be taken. The affected director will not take part in any deliberations or actions of the CNGC or the Board relating to the resignation. Within 90 days following certification of the election results, the Board will act on the resignation, taking into account the CNGC's recommendation and any other information judged by the Board to be relevant, and publicly disclose its decision in a filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). If the Board rejects the director's resignation, under Delaware law, the director will continue to serve on the Board. If the Board accepts the director's resignation, the Board may fill the resulting vacancy or may reduce the size of the Board.

If the election of directors unexpectedly becomes contested*—*that is, an election where the number of properly nominated director candidates exceeds the number of directors to be elected*—*plurality voting will apply under our Bylaws. "Plurality voting" means that the seats on the Board will be filled by the director nominees who receive the highest number of FOR votes. Voting AGAINST or ABSTAIN in a contested election will have no effect on the outcome.

No cumulative voting rights exist in this election. If you are a beneficial owner of shares, your broker, bank, or other nominee is not permitted to vote your shares on this matter if no instruction is received from you.

We do not anticipate that any nominee will become unavailable for election. If that were to happen for any reason, however, the shares represented by proxies and voting for a nominee who unexpectedly becomes unavailable will be voted instead for a substitute candidate nominated by the Board, unless the Board elects to reduce its size.

The Board recommends that stockholders vote FOR the election of each of the 11 nominees to our Board.

Director Qualifications and Responsibilities

The CNGC and the Board believe that the Company's directors should possess a diverse array of backgrounds, skills, and qualifications, whether in terms of education, business acumen, accounting and financial expertise, risk-management experience, or experience with other organizations. When considering director candidates, the CNGC and the Board take into account these factors as well as other characteristics that, in their judgment, will enhance the effectiveness of the Board. These characteristics include independence, the ability to understand Ally's primary risks and to advise management on Ally's strategic plan and objectives in the context of its risk profile, the ability to make independent and disinterested decisions in the balanced and best interests of Ally's stockholders as a whole, the ability and willingness to devote sufficient time and attention to Ally, personal and professional integrity, honesty, ethics, and values, and the candidate's overall fit within the existing mix of director characteristics. While not intended to be exhaustive, the following matrix highlights a number of relevant skills and qualifications possessed by some or all of the 11 nominees.

In addition, the CNGC and the Board consider diversity in the characteristics of director candidates, including each candidate's perspective and background, with the ultimate aim of enhancing the Board's ability to perform its oversight function most effectively. The CNGC and the Board strive to complement the institutional knowledge of longer tenured directors with fresh perspectives brought by newer directors and believe that the diversity of our nominees contributes to enhancing the efficacy of the Board, increasing the fundamental value of our Company, and creating long-term value for stockholders.

In their consideration of director candidates, the CNGC and the Board also take into account the Board's responsibility to provide direction and oversight for the Company's business and affairs. In its oversight role, the Board's primary responsibilities are the following:

• overseeing a clear strategy for Ally, including reviewing, advising management on, approving, and monitoring performance against Ally's strategic plan and objectives while taking into account Ally's asset size, complexity, scope of operations, risk appetite, risk capacity, and changes in these factors;

• selecting the CEO, and through the CNGC, (a) approving goals and compensation for, and evaluating the performance of, the CEO and other identified members of senior management, (b) overseeing succession plans for the CEO and other identified members of senior management, and (c) overseeing compensation policies relative to risks and applicable law;

• through the Risk Committee (RC), overseeing Ally's risk-management policies and global risk-management framework, including approving and monitoring a clear risk appetite for Ally that aligns with its strategy and risk capacity and reviewing Ally's program for managing compliance risk;

• overseeing Ally's financial performance and condition, and through the Audit Committee (AC), monitoring the integrity of Ally's financial statements and financial-reporting process and the adequacy of its financial and other internal controls, including disclosure controls and procedures; and

• establishing the proper "tone at the top" for the culture and values of Ally, including approving Ally's code of conduct and ethics and monitoring management's promotion of integrity, honesty, and ethical and legal conduct throughout Ally.

The CNGC and the Board are dedicated to assembling directors who excel in fulfilling these responsibilities, exercise independent leadership and oversight of management, and operate in a cohesive and effective manner. Each director candidate possesses valued backgrounds, skills, qualifications, and other characteristics, and collectively, these director candidates are positioned to meaningfully contribute to increasing the fundamental value of Ally and creating long-term value for stockholders.

The Board has affirmatively determined in its business judgment that each of Mr. Hobbs, Mr. Bacon, Mr. Cary, Ms. Clark, Mr. Fennebresque, Ms. Goldman, Ms. Magner, Mr. Reilly, Mr. Sharples, and Mr. Steib is independent as defined in the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) listing standards and applicable SEC rules (each independent and an independent director). The Board has determined that Mr. J. Brown, the Company's CEO, is not independent due to his position as an executive officer of the Company. In evaluating the independence of each director candidate, transactions, relationships, and arrangements between the director candidate or any related person or interest and the Company or any of its subsidiaries were assessed. These included a variety of financial-services relationships—such as deposit accounts and investment services—and six commercial arrangements involving the provision of services in the ordinary course of business to Ally. All of these transactions, relationships, and arrangements were judged to have been made on terms and under circumstances at least as favorable to the Company or its subsidiaries as those that were prevailing at the time for comparable transactions, relationships, or arrangements with unrelated persons or interests or those that would have applied to unrelated persons or interests. In addition, none of these transactions, relationships, or arrangements were determined to require disclosure under Item 404(a) of SEC Regulation S-K. The Board concluded as well that no independent director has a relationship that would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director. No familial relationships exist among the directors.

## board governance matters
In identifying and recommending candidates to stand for election to the Board, the CNGC may consider existing directors for renomination and may use search firms or other resources to identify other potential director candidates. The CNGC also considers potential director candidates who are recommended by stockholders in compliance with applicable law and listing rules and our Bylaws. Stockholders desiring to recommend candidates for membership on the Board for consideration by the CNGC should address their recommendations in writing, including all information required by our Bylaws, to the Compensation, Nominating, and Governance Committee of the Board of Directors, Ally Financial Inc., Attention: Corporate Secretary, 500 Woodward Avenue, MC: MI-01-10-CORPSEC, Detroit, Michigan 48226. The CNGC uses the same criteria to evaluate all potential director candidates regardless of how they have been identified.

The effectiveness of these policies and processes for identifying and considering potential director candidates is assessed by the CNGC in connection with its annual evaluation of the performance of the Board and each committee as contemplated by the Board's Governance Guidelines (**Governance Guidelines**).

Meeting Attendance

Directors are strongly encouraged to attend each annual meeting of stockholders in order to provide an opportunity for informal communication between directors and stockholders and to enhance the Board's understanding of stockholder priorities and perspectives. All existing directors, except one with a conflict, attended the last annual meeting of stockholders on May 3, 2022.

The Board met nine times during 2022. Each nominee who is currently a director attended at least 75% of the aggregate of (1) the total number of meetings held in 2022 by the Board during the period when the director was serving in that capacity and (2) the total number of meetings held in 2022 by all applicable committees during the period when the director was serving on those committees.

The Board's Leadership Structure

Under our Bylaws, a majority of the full Board elects the chairperson. Whenever the chairperson does not qualify as an independent director, the independent directors—by a majority vote at a meeting consisting solely of independent directors—elects one of the independent directors as lead director. Mr. Hobbs serves as the Chairman of the Board and is a non-executive and independent director. Mr. J. Brown is our CEO.

The Board believes that separating the roles of Chairman and CEO is currently in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders because, based on the Company's present circumstances, the structure provides a balance between strategic development and independent oversight of management. The Board, however, maintains its flexibility to make this determination at any time to provide appropriate leadership for the Company as circumstances warrant.

Our Bylaws provide that the chairperson (or in the chairperson's absence, the lead director if one exists or, if none exists, an alternate director designated by a majority of the independent directors then present) will preside at Board meetings. Under the Governance Guidelines, the chairperson also has the following responsibilities: (1) serve as a liaison between the independent directors and management, (2) periodically communicate with the CEO to discuss matters of importance to the independent directors, (3) provide for adequate deliberations on all agenda items and other matters properly brought before the Board, and (4) perform other duties that are appropriate for a non-executive chair and that a majority of the independent directors may identify from time to time.

Committees of the Board

The CNGC annually reviews the structure and membership of the Board's committees and recommends any appropriate changes to the Board. The Board's governance structure is designed to support effective oversight (including oversight of senior management),

timely access to information, and sound decision-making. The membership of each committee is driven by its purpose, the expertise or experience needed to achieve that purpose, any requirements of applicable law or listing rules, and other factors that are expected to enhance the effectiveness of the committee. The standing committees of the Board are currently the CNGC, the AC, the RC, and the Technology Committee (TC). The membership of these committees during 2022 and the total number of their meetings in 2022 are detailed in the following summaries, except that Katryn (Trynka) Shineman Blake also served as a member of the AC and the TC until her departure from the Board on February 24, 2022, and John J. Stack also served as a member of the AC, the CNGC, and the RC until his departure from the Board on May 3, 2022.

Risk Management

The Board's primary responsibilities include, through the RC, overseeing Ally's risk-management policies and global risk-management framework, including its risk-appetite statement and its program for managing compliance risk, commensurate with its structure, risk profile, complexity, activities, and size.

The RC is composed of only independent directors. Among the RC's specific duties are the following:

• approve and oversee Ally's enterprise-risk-management framework, including the material-risk taxonomy;

• approve and monitor a clear risk appetite for Ally that aligns with its strategy and risk capacity (including Committee-set limits)—including by acting on recommendations of the TC on the information-technology and information-security risk appetite for Ally—and approve and periodically review other risk-management policies of Ally's global operations as delegated to it by the Board;

• oversee management's responsibility for ensuring that the enterprise-risk-management framework is commensurate with Ally's structure, risk profile, complexity, activities, and size, and in fulfilling these responsibilities, review as appropriate significant information about information-technology and information-security risks that the RC requires to exercise its duties and responsibilities;

• review reports from the Chief Risk Officer on the risk-management policies of Ally's global operations and the operation of its enterprise-risk-management framework, including reports on risk-management deficiencies, the resolution of those deficiencies, and emerging risks;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

• review reports and trends on Ally's material risks as set forth in its risk-appetite framework and reports from management on its actions to assess, monitor, and control those risks;

• review reports and trends on Ally's liquidity planning and capital-management processes, and review and approve the contingency-funding plan, any material revisions to it, and stress-test policies and procedures;

• review reports and trends on Ally's program for managing compliance risk;

• review reports on the new-product-approval process, including risks and performance of high-risk-rated products and alignment to the risk-appetite framework;

• review and approve Ally's business-continuity-and-testing plans;

• review and approve Ally's model-risk-management plan, and review reports and trends on Ally's model-risk-management program; and

• approve Ally's loan-review plan, and review reports from Ally's loan-review function.

Among Ally's primary types of risk under the material-risk taxonomy is information-technology and information-security risk. As further described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, we devote substantial resources to identifying, monitoring, measuring, mitigating, and reporting on information-technology and information-security risk, including in connection with independent third-party assessments, insurance coverage, and training. Further, the TC is charged with reviewing, approving, and recommending to the RC a clear information-technology and information-security risk appetite for Ally that aligns with its strategy and risk capacity. The TC also supports the RC in overseeing the management of information-technology and information-security risks commensurate with Ally's structure, risk profile, complexity, activities, and size. Senior management briefs the RC, the TC, or the Board on information-security matters at least quarterly.

The RC also meets in joint session with the AC, at least annually, to discuss with management the guidelines and policies for assessing and managing Ally's exposure to risks, including major financial risk exposures, and the steps management has taken to monitor, control, report on, and, as necessary, disclose those exposures.

In addition, the CNGC is responsible for overseeing the accountability of senior management for effectively implementing Ally's strategy consistent with its risk appetite, while maintaining an effective risk-management framework and system of internal controls, and consistent with safety and soundness and in compliance with applicable laws (including those related to consumer protection) under a range of conditions—particularly through the establishment, maintenance, and administration of Ally's executive-compensation plans and the evaluation, determination, and approval of goals and compensation of the CEO and other Purview Executives. The AC correspondingly has responsibility to oversee the effectiveness of Ally's risk management and internal controls that are designed to (1) safeguard assets, (2) confirm the accuracy and integrity of accounting, financial reporting, and disclosures, (3) maintain compliance with ethical standards, policies, procedures, and applicable laws, (4) promote effectiveness and efficiency of operations, and (5) address any other related matter that the AC judges to be appropriate for its oversight.

While each of these committees is responsible for evaluating specified risks and overseeing the management of those risks, the full Board is regularly updated by management on the state of Ally's risk appetite, risk capacity, and enterprise-risk-management framework—including management's ongoing assessment of identified top and emerging risks—and considers them in assessing and directing Ally's strategy and business. Our independent Chairman and our CEO are individually focused as well on Ally's risk-management policies and practices. The Chief Risk Officer, Chief Compliance Officer, and Chief Audit Executive each directly report to our CEO.

Communications with the Board

Under the Governance Guidelines, stockholders and other members of the public may communicate with the Board, the Chairman of the Board, any other individual director, the non-management directors as a group, the independent directors as a group, or any committee of the Board by sending written correspondence in care of the Ally Financial Inc. Corporate Secretary, 500 Woodward Avenue, MC: MI-01-10-CORPSEC, Detroit, Michigan 48226. The Secretary will forward correspondence relating to a director's duties or responsibilities to the specified recipient. Correspondence that is unrelated to a director's duties and responsibilities may be discarded or otherwise addressed by the Secretary. Any correspondence that expresses a concern about any governance, conduct, ethical, accounting, financial-reporting, or internal-control matter will be addressed as provided in the Governance Guidelines.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

No person who served as a member of the CNGC during the year ended December 31, 2022*—*Kim S. Fennebresque, Franklin W. Hobbs, Mayree C. Clark, Marjorie Magner, and John J. Stack*—*(1) was an officer or employee of the Company during 2022, (2) was a former officer of the Company, or (3) had any relationship requiring disclosure by the Company under any paragraph of Item 404 of SEC Regulation S-K.

We recognize our long-term success is underpinned by the strength of our purpose-driven culture—a culture that we believe sets us apart from the competition and gives us an advantage as we recruit and retain talented team members. Our people-first approach enables a winning, customer-centric philosophy focused on resiliency, adaptability, and a growth-mindset-oriented drive to "Be (Even) Better." We strive to uphold our mantra to "Do it Right" through decisions and deeds at all levels of the organization, and we collectively commit to work with integrity and accountability and to uphold our core values in the workplace, the marketplace, and the community.

Living our purpose helped deliver meaningful results for our stockholders and make a real difference for our customers, employees, and communities. We made significant strides in diversity, equity, and inclusion, were relentless allies in improving financial education in a challenging economy, reduced our environmental impact, and led the way with new products and services. Here are some of the ways we made an impact in 2022.

| <br> ![LOGO](g381837g05t07.jpg)  | • Owner's Mindset. For the fourth consecutive year, all active, regular Ally employees were awarded with 100 RSUs through the company's #OwnIt Annual Grant Program.<br> •Competitive Compensation. In November 2022, we increased the minimum hourly wage for our U.S. employees from $20 to $23. Beginning January 1, 2023, in concurrence with laws in multiple municipalities in which we operate, we began proactively including pay ranges in job postings nationwide.<br> •Employee Engagement. Sustaining high levels of employee engagement is key as we continue to build a company where our employees want to work, have purposeful careers, and feel empowered to make a difference. For 2022, our employee engagement scores were within the top 10% of all global companies that participated in the survey and at least nine points higher than the financial services industry benchmark as measured by our third-party provider.<br> • Mental Health. In 2022, we announced expanded mental health benefits for our employees, their dependents, and immediate household members. This additional benefit will provide up to 16 free counseling sessions for each individual, regardless of their participation in our medical plans, to address on-going community concerns over affordability and access to mental health care and build resiliency among our employee population. |
| <br> ![LOGO](g381837g05s12.jpg)  | • Introduced CoverDraft. In January 2022 we announced Ally CoverDraft service, which provides a no fee overdraft allowance to our qualifying customers on debit transactions subject to a certain amount.<br> • Early Direct Deposit. As the economic landscape remained turbulent, we introduced Early Direct Deposit, an account feature that allows customers to access qualifying direct deposits up to two days in advance of receipt. |
| ![LOGO](g381837g27k00.jpg) | • Employee Giving. Our employees volunteered approximately 44,000 hours in our communities. And we matched our employee donations of time and dollars resulting in $2.3 million for our communities.<br> • Financial Support. We deployed more than $1.1 billion in loans and investments that primarily benefit low- to moderate-income individuals and communities as part of our Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) program and executed on our ongoing commitment of expanding access to capital for Black, Hispanic, and Latino communities by deploying $33 million in loans and investments specifically to minority- and women-led organizations.<br> • Underrepresented Talent. For the 4th consecutive year, Ally's annual Moguls in the Making competition fostered opportunities for students from Historically Black Colleges and Universities. Since inception, we have offered internships to 43 students, which have often led to permanent job placements within Ally or the broader financial-services industry. |
| <br> ![LOGO](g381837g05u95.jpg)  | • Carbon Neutral. Executed Ally's operational carbon neutrality strategy for 2021 Scope 1 and 2 emissions through a combined purchase of carbon offsets and Green-e Energy Certified renewable energy credits.<br> • Green Teams. Our employees supporting environmental volunteerism through Green Teams completed over 2,300 volunteer hours, focused on the areas of land, water use, community impact, air quality, biodiversity, and recycling.<br> • Sustainable Facilities. Our LEED- and WELL-certified Ally Charlotte Center headquarters was the recipient of the Health and Well-Being and People's Choice Award by the U.S. Green Building Council. Ally, in total, occupies 33% WELL-certified space and reached 40% LEED certification. |

DIVERSITY, EQUITY, AND INCLUSION

A Culture that Promotes Belonging

We believe the best ideas come from a collective mixture of different voices and perspectives. We are an equal opportunity employer, and we strive for an inclusive work environment where all backgrounds, experiences, interests, viewpoints, and skills are respected, appreciated, and encouraged—consistent with our culture. Fostering these diverse perspectives is important and reflects the beliefs and actions that are the backbone of our culture.

Notably, our company-wide engagement survey score for belonging improved by two points in 2022 and remains eight points above the financial services industry benchmark, as measured by our third-party provider. The importance of DE&I starts at the top with our CEO and Board, who consistently stress the value in leveraging our differences.

Recognized as an Industry Leader

As a reflection of our collective efforts across each of these pillars to build an inclusive culture, we were recognized by several organizations in 2022 and 2021. In 2022, Ally was named a Forbes Best Employer among large employers, which ranked us 64th out of 500 large employers. Additionally, we were recognized as a 2022 Top Workplaces USA award recipient for our people-first culture and were included in People's 2022 Companies That Care list.

## director compensation
Our director-compensation program is designed to attract and retain directors with the characteristics described in *Director Qualifications and Responsibilities* earlier in this proxy statement and to provide fair compensation for the work required of a director in a company with Ally's asset size, complexity, scope of operations, risk appetite, and risk capacity. The program is reviewed by the CNGC—with advice from its compensation consultant, Frederic W. Cook & Co., Inc. (**FW Cook**)—and approved by the Board.

Consistent with the Governance Guidelines, Mr. J. Brown does not receive any separate compensation for his service on the Board.

Details of the director-compensation program for 2022 are set forth in the following table.

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| &nbsp;&nbsp; Pay Component | Non-Employee Director Compensation | Non-Employee Director Compensation |
| &nbsp;&nbsp; Annual Cash Retainer | • | $90000<sup>(1)</sup> |
| &nbsp;&nbsp; Annual Equity Retainer | • | $145000<sup>(2)</sup> |
| &nbsp;&nbsp; Annual Retainer - Board Chair | • | Cash: $60,000<sup>(1)</sup> |
|  | • | Equity: $90,000<sup>(2)</sup> |
| &nbsp;&nbsp; Annual Cash Retainer - Committee Chairs<sup>(1)</sup> | • | AC: $60,000 |
|  | • | RC: $60,000 |
|  | • | CNGC: $50,000 |
|  | • | TC: $50,000 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp; Annual Cash Retainer - Committee Members<sup>(1)</sup> | • | $20000 |

---

(1) Paid in quarterly installments.

(2) Consists of director deferred stock units, each of which vests immediately and represents the right to receive one share of our common stock upon the director's departure from the Board (**Director DSUs**). This amount is prorated for directors who join the Board after the annual meeting of stockholders.

Consistent with the Governance Guidelines, non-employee directors are reimbursed for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses related to their service on the Board. Furthermore, under our Certificate of Incorporation, directors are limited in their liability and indemnified to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law for their service in that capacity.

Ally allows its non-employee directors to defer from 0% to 100% of their cash retainers in 25% increments. These deferrals can be made into either fully vested Director DSUs or a cash account that is credited with interest quarterly. Interest earned on a cash account is based on the average rate offered by Ally Bank for deposits in its online savings accounts.

## other governance policies and practices
Code of Conduct and Ethics

Our Board has adopted a Code of Conduct and Ethics to promote integrity in the workplace, in the marketplace, and in our society and communities. The Code of Conduct and Ethics applies to all of Ally's officers and employees, including the CEO, the Chief Financial Officer (**CFO**), and the Controller. We will post any amendment to the Code of Conduct and Ethics, as well as any waiver that is required to be disclosed under applicable SEC rules or NYSE listing standards, on the Company's website at *www.ally.com/about/investor/policies-charters/*. There were no waivers from any provision of the Code of Conduct and Ethics in 2022 that were required to be disclosed.

Transactions with Related Persons

The Board has adopted a written Related-Person Transaction Policy (**Related-Person Transaction Policy**), which is included within the Governance Guidelines and which requires the CNGC to review and approve or ratify any related-person transaction.

A **related-person transaction** is any existing or proposed transaction, arrangement, or relationship, or any existing or proposed series of similar transactions, arrangements, or relationships, where (a) Ally or any of its subsidiaries was or will be a participant, (b) the amount involved exceeds $120,000, and (c) any related person had or will have a direct or indirect material interest. A related person is any Ally director or director nominee, any executive officer of Ally under Rule 3b-7 of the Exchange Act, any beneficial owner of more than 5% of any class of Ally's voting securities, and any immediate family member of any of the foregoing. An **immediate family member** is any child, stepchild, parent, stepparent, spouse, sibling, mother-in-law, father-in-law, son-in-law, daughter-in-law, brother-in-law, or sister-in-law—including, in each case, adoptive relationships—and any person (other than a tenant or employee) sharing the same household.

The related person involved in a potential related-person transaction must promptly submit it to Ally's General Counsel for initial review. The submission must describe (a) the related person's name and relationship to Ally, (b) all of the related person's direct and indirect interests in the transaction, including the related person's positions and relationships with, and ownership interests in, any firm, corporation, or other entity that is involved in the transaction, (c) the approximate dollar value of the amount involved in the transaction and the amount of all of the related person's direct and indirect interests in the transaction, in each case, determined without regard to the amount of profit or loss, and (d) all other material information about the transaction and the related person's involvement in it.

The General Counsel will refer submitted related-person transactions to the CNGC for review and approval or ratification. Facts and circumstances taken into account by the CNGC when determining whether to approve or ratify a related-person transaction may include (a) its terms, (b) the nature and extent of the related person's interest in it, (c) the benefits likely to accrue to Ally, (d) whether its consummation is consistent with the best interests of Ally and its stockholders, (e) whether it presents a heightened risk of conflicts of interest, an improper valuation, or the perception of such a conflict or improper valuation, (f) any impact on a director's independence, (g) the availability of other comparable transactions, arrangements, or relationships, and (h) whether it is on terms no less favorable than those generally available to an unaffiliated third party under the same or similar circumstances or on terms comparable to those provided to Ally's employees generally. If the CNGC does not approve or ratify a related-person transaction or if any conditions imposed on the approval or ratification are not satisfied, Ally may not enter into or otherwise be involved in the transaction or, if already executed, must rescind or terminate the transaction as promptly and on as favorable of terms to Ally as reasonably possible. No member of the CNGC may participate in any review or consideration of any related-person transaction involving the member, the member's immediate family, or any related entity, although the member may be counted for purposes of determining the presence of a quorum at the meeting.

No review, approval, or ratification is required for a transaction, arrangement, or relationship (a) where the rates or charges involved are determined by competitive bids, (b) involving the rendering of services as a common or contract carrier or a public utility at rates or charges fixed in conformity with law or governmental authority, (c) involving services as a bank depositary of funds, transfer

agent, registrar, trustee under a trust indenture, or similar services, (d) where the interest of the related person arises solely from the ownership of a class of Ally's equity securities and all holders of that class of equity securities receive the same benefit on a pro rata basis, or (e) involving indebtedness extended by any of Ally's banking or broker-dealer subsidiaries if the extension of credit was made in the ordinary course of business, was made on substantially the same terms (including interest rates and collateral) as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with unrelated persons, and did not involve more than the normal risk of collectability or present other unfavorable features.

There has been no transaction since January 1, 2022, that is required to be reported under Item 404(a) of SEC Regulation S-K but that did not require review and approval or ratification under the Related-Person Transaction Policy or for which the Related-Person Transaction Policy was not followed.

Submission of Stockholder Proposals

Any proposal that a stockholder wishes to be considered for inclusion in Ally's proxy materials for the 2024 annual meeting of stockholders pursuant to SEC Rule 14a-8 must be received in writing by Ally not later than November 22, 2023. We recommend that any stockholder proposal be delivered by means that provide proof of the date of delivery, such as certified mail (postage prepaid and return receipt requested). Please note that such a proposal must comply with all requirements of SEC Rule 14a-8, which addresses when we must include such a proposal in our proxy materials, including eligibility and procedural requirements that apply to the proponent.

Our Bylaws include a proxy-access right, which permits a stockholder or a group of up to 20 stockholders owning at least three percent of Ally's outstanding common stock continuously for at least three years to nominate and include in Ally's proxy materials for an annual meeting director nominees constituting up to the greater of two directors or twenty percent of the Board. This right and any exercise of it are subject to the specific provisions of our Bylaws, including procedures and other requirements applicable to the stockholders and the nominees, which are available on our website at *www.ally.com/resources/pdf/corporate/Bylaws.pdf*. For the 2024 annual meeting of stockholders, notice of proxy-access director nominees as described in our Bylaws must be received by the Corporate Secretary not earlier than October 23, 2023, and not later than November 22, 2023.

Our Bylaws establish advance-notice requirements for any stockholder proposal (including a director nomination) that is not submitted for inclusion in our proxy materials for the 2024 annual meeting of stockholders under the proxy-access right in our Bylaws or under SEC Rule 14a-8 but that is sought to be presented at the 2024 annual meeting. Such a proposal (including a director nomination) must be received in writing by Ally not earlier than January 4, 2024, and not later than February 3, 2024, and must satisfy the information and other requirements in our Bylaws. In addition, any stockholder who intends to solicit proxies in support of any director nominee other than Ally's nominees at the 2024 annual meeting must also comply with all applicable requirements of SEC Rule 14a-19. Please note that the advance-notice requirements of SEC Rule 14a-19 do not override or supersede the longer advance-notice requirements in our Bylaws.

Any stockholder proposal (including a director nomination) submitted to Ally in connection with the 2024 annual meeting of stockholders, as well as related notices and other communications to Ally, must be received at the following address: Ally Financial Inc., Corporate Secretary, 500 Woodward Avenue, Mail Code MI-01-10-CORPSEC, Detroit, Michigan 48226.

Stockholder Engagement

Regularly engaging with stockholders is a key component of our governance practices and is aimed at maintaining a dialogue with them on operating performance, the competitive environment, ESG, and other topics of interest to them. During 2022, our engagement included interactions with many of our largest stockholders and regular participation by several members of our executive leadership in investor conferences. Stockholder feedback is shared, as appropriate, with executive leadership and the Board. Refer to *Compensation Discussion and Analysis*—*Compensation Overview*—*Compensation Program Alignment With Stockholder Interests* later in this proxy statement for additional information.

Governance Documents

Charters for the AC, the RC, the TC, and the CNGC, along with the Governance Guidelines, the Code of Conduct and Ethics, and the Bylaws, are available on the Company's website at *www.ally.com/about/investor/policies-charters/*.

(1) The RSUs identified here settle in shares of Ally common stock. The PSUs identified here settle in cash, except that the PSUs of Mr. B. Brown settle in shares of Ally common stock. For PSUs, the number assumes that the related performance goals are achieved at the target. For further information on all long-term incentive awards, refer to *Compensation Discussion and Analysis— Components of Ally's Executive-Compensation Program* later in this proxy statement.

(3) Stock-settled units for Ms. LaClair include RSUs that are nonforfeitable because they fully vested on March 3, 2023 pursuant to the terms of the Transition Services and Release Agreement. Refer to *Compensation Discussion and Analysis—Other—Leadership Changes* later in this proxy statement for more information.

2022 COMPANY PERFORMANCE SUMMARY AND CEO TOTAL COMPENSATION MIX

We continued to execute against our long-term strategic priorities while navigating a fluid macroeconomic environment. The optimization of our business was evident in our ability to generate record net interest margin and total revenue. We continued to expand our customer base to approximately 11 million as our customer-centric products continue to resonate in the market.

Our 2022 accomplishments go beyond the financial metrics. Our purpose driven "Do It Right" culture, focused on customers, employees, and communities, is at the core of everything we do. For our employees, we increased minimum wage and further instilled an owner's mentality across the organization through our #OwnIt Annual Grant Program where each active, regular employee is granted 100 RSUs. For our customers, after leading the charge to eliminate overdraft fees in 2021, we introduced CoverDraft, a free service that further enhances overdraft protection – another example of our commitment to be a relentless financial ally for our customers. Within our communities, the Ally Charitable Foundation, which has approximately $70 million in assets, supported organizations in underserved communities in which we live and served to create lasting change. We believe that our culture is a competitive advantage and an essential component of Ally's winning equation.

In 2023, we remain committed to living our name and being an ally for our customers. Our team will be focused on navigating our long-term strategic priorities as we strive to create long-term value for all stakeholders.

Compensation Overview

COMPENSATION PHILOSOPHY

Ally believes there should be a strong linkage between compensation and performance as well as alignment with good governance principles and stockholder interests. This linkage is embodied throughout our executive-compensation program, including (1) the AIP, which governs awards of cash-based incentive compensation, and (2) the ICP, which governs awards of equity-based incentive compensation. In support of this compensation philosophy, Ally's executive-compensation program is structured to:

• **Align with Stockholders:** Our compensation program is designed to drive long-term value creation for our stockholders;

• **Incentivize Performance:** Provide appropriate short- and long-term incentives based on individual, business, and Company performance;

• **Balance Risk:** Encourage prudent, but not excessive, risk taking;

• **Be Market Competitive:** Provide a total compensation opportunity competitive with market practice and reflective of the responsibilities of the role;

• **Retain Talent:** Encourage the retention of key executives; and

• **CNGC Judgment:** Evaluate Company and individual performance to a balanced scorecard and pre-established goals and objectives using informed judgment to assess performance for the year.

CONSIDERATION OF STOCKHOLDER SAY-ON-PAY VOTES

At our 2022 annual meeting, we provided our stockholders the opportunity to vote on an advisory resolution approving the compensation paid to our NEOs in 2021. Approximately 93% of the outstanding shares present in person or represented by proxy at that meeting and entitled to vote on the proposal voted in support of the resolution. The CNGC continues to monitor feedback from our stockholders through say-on-pay advisory votes and other channels and will consider this feedback in overseeing our executive-compensation program.

![LOGO](g381837g71h49.jpg)

COMPENSATION PROGRAM ALIGNMENT WITH STOCKHOLDER INTERESTS

The following table highlights some of the key areas of interest from our stockholders based on direct feedback, published stewardship reports, and proxy voting guidelines from some of our largest investors.

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| &nbsp;&nbsp; Stockholder Interest<br>| How Ally Aligns with Stockholders<br>|
| &nbsp;&nbsp; **Compensation plans should drive long-term value creation** | Our compensation programs reward our executive leaders for delivering performance results based on our strategic goals related to Company financial and operational performance in the short-term and delivering appropriate returns for our stockholders over the long term. The majority of compensation is performance-based with a significant portion of incentive compensation tied to long-term performance through the use of PSUs and RSUs. PSU performance is measured over a three-year period.<br>|
| &nbsp;&nbsp; **Compensation plans should measure both absolute and relative performance** | Our new 2023 PSU awards feature Core ROTCE to focus our NEOs and other leaders on producing an appropriate return on equity to create long-term value for our stockholders and a relative TSR modifier to measure our performance against our peers (refer to *2023 PSUs* later in this CD&A for additional information).<br>|
| &nbsp;&nbsp; **Compensation plans should incorporate performance metrics consistent with corporate strategy and market practice** | In conducting its review, the CNGC utilizes a balanced Company scorecard that shows (i) key financial metrics, (ii), operational indicators, (iii), regulatory and customer metrics, (iv) employee indicators, and (v) other relevant qualitative factors, and also considers the performance of each NEO against individual performance goals and objectives (refer to *CNGC Process to Determine Compensation* and *Components of Ally's Executive-Compensation Program* later in this CD&A for additional information).<br>|
| &nbsp;&nbsp; **The Company should invest in its employees** | We have taken several actions to invest in our employees who take care of our customers. We provide competitive compensation and benefits. We increased our minimum wage to $23 per hour during 2022 and provided an annual grant of Ally RSUs to all active, regular employees. Additionally, the Company offers competitively priced benefit programs to make healthcare more accessible for all employees.<br>|
| &nbsp;&nbsp; **ESG should be considered in incentive-compensation decisions** | ESG achievements are considered by the CNGC in incentive-compensation decisions for our CEO and other NEOs (Company and individual ESG achievements are identified with a green leaf throughout the CD&A).<br>|

COMPENSATION PROGRAM GOVERNANCE

The CNGC oversees Ally's executive-compensation program and determines the compensation for our CEO, NEOs, and other Purview Executives. In addition to implementing a performance-based compensation framework, the CNGC has established strong compensation governance as demonstrated by the following practices that apply to our NEOs.

---

| |
|:---|
| Our Practices<br>|
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; ✓ **Majority of total compensation is performance-based through use of variable incentive awards that measure performance in the short- and long-term**<br>✓ **Alignment of NEOs' interests with those of our stockholders by awarding 60% or more of incentive compensation in the form of long-term awards**<br>✓ **Annual risk assessment of our compensation program and the risk-management behavior of each of the NEOs**<br>✓ **Performance-based compensation program that evaluates absolute and relative performance**<br>✓ **Meaningful stock-ownership guidelines**<br>✓ **Enforcement of stock-trading restrictions**<br>✓ **Enhanced clawback policy applicable to all incentive awards**<br>✓ **Utilization of a compensation consultant by the CNGC to provide updates on market trends and best practices** <br>|

Assessing Compensation Competitiveness

COMPENSATION PEER GROUP

The CNGC, with input from FW Cook as its compensation consultant, annually reviews and approves the peer group used in assessing compensation competitiveness. In its review, the CNGC primarily considers the following factors:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| Industry Screen | Size and Scale | Talent Competitors | Direct Business Competitors |
| U.S. publicly traded companies in the banking and consumer-finance industries | Companies with total assets or net revenue between one-third and three-times the size of Ally | Companies with whom Ally competes for senior executive talent | Companies with whom Ally competes for business |

---

The CNGC also considers peers that are identified by the investor community, peers of our selected peers, and companies that include Ally within its peer group. Ally's peer group is set forth in the following table.

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **2022 Compensation Peer Group** <u>(a)</u> | **2022 Compensation Peer Group** <u>(a)</u> |

(a) First Citizens BancShares (formerly CIT Group) was removed as a peer in 2022.

The following chart shows how Ally compares to its 2022 peer group for some relevant metrics.

![LOGO](g381837g48p48.jpg)

In approving the peer group for 2022, however, the CNGC noted the scarcity of firms that are reflective of Ally's structure, risk profile, complexity, activities, and size—more specifically, a company with a highly regulated all-digital bank, no brick-and-mortar branches, its initial public offering less than 10 years ago, nearly $200 billion in assets, and its largest business centered around secured consumer auto financing. As a result, peer-group data is only one factor among many considered by the CNGC in assessing performance—especially long-term value creation for stockholders—and determining executive compensation.

ASSESSMENTS CONDUCTED

The Company engaged McLagan Data & Analytics to provide consulting services on executive compensation for the 2022 – 2023 cycle. This included a competitive assessment of the compensation for our NEOs and other Purview Executives, which was shared with the CNGC and FW Cook. For this purpose, we compare the total compensation of our NEOs and other Purview Executives against the median of peer group, referenced above, and survey data as applicable.

With each individual executive, the CNGC may set total compensation above or below the median based on a variety of factors, including individual performance, sustained performance over time, performance of the Company, performance of the applicable business line or corporate function, criticalness to retain, skill set, time in the position, and experience relative to external market counterparts.

CNGC Process to Determine Compensation

![LOGO](g381837g91s91.jpg)

FW Cook served as a compensation consultant to the CNGC during 2022 and for the 2022–2023 compensation cycle. The CNGC is directly responsible for the appointment, compensation, and oversight of the work of FW Cook. FW Cook provides ongoing advice with respect to the compensation plans covering the executives, including our NEOs, and non-employee directors. FW Cook, as requested, attends meetings of the CNGC involving compensation matters, reviews compensation materials developed by management in advance of the CNGC meetings, and shares information on market practices and trends with the CNGC. FW Cook undertakes no separate work for Ally. The CNGC assessed the independence of FW Cook under applicable NYSE listing standards and SEC rules and determined that its work for the CNGC does not raise any conflicts of interest.

Components of Ally's Executive-Compensation Program

Total compensation for our NEOs is primarily composed of base salary, annual cash incentive awards, and long-term incentive awards in the form of PSUs and RSUs.

![LOGO](g381837g39l32.jpg)

We provide our NEOs with health and welfare benefits under broad-based programs generally available to all of our employees. Our benefit programs include retirement savings plans, medical, dental, disability benefits, life insurance, and other programs generally offered in the external market. NEOs also received, along with all other active, regular employees, a grant of 100 RSUs through the #OwnIt Annual Grant Program to foster an owner's mentality.

In addition to broad-based benefits, the NEOs receive limited additional benefits and perquisites so that the Company can remain competitive in attracting and retaining executive talent. These benefits are itemized in the notes to the *Summary Compensation Table* later in this proxy statement.

INCENTIVE COMPENSATION

Each year the CNGC reviews the performance of our NEOs and other Purview Executives using a balanced and disciplined approach to determine incentive compensation awards. The CNGC considers the overall performance and results by reviewing both a balanced scorecard and individual results to pre-established goals and objectives.

Ally's executive-compensation program is intended to reward and retain executives, including the NEOs, with a substantial emphasis on long-term performance to align with stockholder interests. This focus on the long term is embodied in both how incentive compensation is earned (multi-year performance and vesting periods) and how incentive compensation is realized (value of equity awards are impacted by changes in the stock price after the initial grant).

![LOGO](g381837g00h03.jpg)

The CNGC then makes final total incentive compensation determinations based on its review of performance for the year. Details of specific Company and individual performance and achievements can be found in *2022 Business and Culture Highlights* earlier in this CD&A and *Performance Results and Compensation Decisions* later in this CD&A. The CNGC believes that a holistic and non-formulaic approach in determining total incentive compensation is appropriate as it provides the flexibility to provide a level of incentive compensation commensurate with overall Company and individual performance, including the consideration of qualitative factors, and incentivizes our leaders to drive overall, long-term value for our stockholders.

Once the CNGC determines each NEO's total incentive compensation, awards are made in a formulaic manner according to the following mix structure:

Incentive Award Target Mix

![LOGO](g381837g51p51.jpg)

Within the first two months after the performance year has concluded, the annual cash incentive awards are paid, and the long-term incentive awards are granted. For PSUs and RSUs, any dividends declared over the vesting period are accumulated and paid at or after the time of settlement.

LONG-TERM INCENTIVE AWARDS

As described in *Components of Ally's Executive-Compensation Program* earlier in this CD&A, long-term incentive awards are designed to align the interests of our NEOs with those of our stockholders. The CNGC believes that the PSUs and the RSUs achieve this aim, as the ultimate value received depends on the share price in the future when the awards vest and, in the case of PSUs, the level of attainment of the applicable performance goals. As displayed in the graphic above, long-term incentive awards granted based on the performance for the prior year include 50% in the form of PSUs and 50% in the form of RSUs.

2023 PSUS

The PSUs granted to our NEOs in 2023 were awarded based on their 2022 performance. The 2023 PSUs measure performance over the three-year period to Core ROTCE (excluding OCI) and feature a relative TSR performance modifier. The CNGC believes that these two metrics align executive compensation with the Company's operating performance, risk appetite, and long-term stockholder returns, while providing for a potential payout adjustment based on the Company's TSR performance measured against

its compensation peer group. The CNGC establishes threshold, target, and maximum goals, along with TSR performance modifier thresholds that, in its judgment, appropriately challenge management and align with stockholder priorities. The annual process includes a comprehensive review of multiple factors including the Company's prior-year performance, the current year's financial plan, and the multi-year strategic plan. For details on these goals, refer to *Summary of Outstanding PSU*s later in this proxy statement. The following table provides additional information considered by the CNGC in selecting each performance metric.

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;PSU Metric | Weight | Reason for Inclusion |
| &nbsp;&nbsp; Core ROTCE (excluding OCI)<sup>(a)</sup> | 100% | A performance metric widely used in the banking industry that incentivizes management to effectively allocate capital and produce an appropriate return on stockholder's equity |
| &nbsp;&nbsp; Relative TSR | Modifier | Intended to align the interests of management with stockholders by incentivizing performance that results in stockholder returns that are favorable to our compensation peer group |

---

(a) This is a non-GAAP financial measure. Refer to **Appendix A** for applicable definitions and reconciliations.

Under the ICP, which governs our PSUs, the CNGC has excluded from Core ROTCE the impact of designated items so that the performance goals reflect factors that management can directly control and that payout levels are not artificially inflated or impaired by factors unrelated to the ongoing operation of the business or outside of the leadership team's performance and control. New for the 2023 PSU awards, the Core ROTCE calculation will exclude the impact of accumulated OCI from the denominator of the calculation to remove the impact of potential volatility in the accumulated OCI balance. The CNGC believes that removing accumulated OCI from the denominator of Core ROTCE is appropriate given the impacts are not reflective of the Company's earnings and return profile, and Core ROTCE excluding accumulated OCI is aligned with stockholders' assessment of the Company's financial performance. Refer to **Appendix A** of this proxy statement for details on additional designated items.

SUMMARY OF OUTSTANDING PSUS

Each outstanding PSU awarded to our NEOs has a cumulative three-year performance period. Earned PSUs will vest and settle in cash following the conclusion on the performance period. Any dividends declared during the vesting period are accumulated and paid at or after the time of settlement based on the number of PSUs earned at the conclusion of the performance period. PSUs pay out between 0% and 150% of target based on the achievement of the predetermined goals for Core ROTCE and TSV Growth Rate for 2021 and 2022 PSU awards. PSUs granted in 2023 pay out between 0% and 150% of target based on Core ROTCE (excluding OCI) and then a relative TSR performance modifier is applied as detailed below (see *2023 PSUs* earlier in this CD&A for additional details). PSU payouts are determined using linear interpolation between the two nearest goals. The goals established by the CNGC for the PSUs granted in 2021, 2022, and 2023 follow:

![LOGO](g381837g53p53.jpg)

(a) This is a non-GAAP financial measure. Refer to Appendix A for applicable definitions and reconciliations.

ANNUAL EMPLOYEE #OWNIT GRANT

Following an initial grant of 100 RSUs to eligible employees in January 2020, in August 2021 we announced that all eligible employees may be awarded Ally stock annually through the Company's discretionary #OwnIt Annual Grant Program dependent upon our financial performance and Board approval. In January 2023, for the fourth consecutive year, we awarded all active, regular Ally employees with 100 RSUs, subject to a 3-year cliff vesting schedule, to support an owner's mentality and to align our entire workforce with the long-term interests of our stockholders. The #OwnIt Annual Grant Program in addition to other programs such as our 2% discretionary 401(k) contribution that was provided for the 13th consecutive year, help drive the financial well-being of our employees. ![LOGO](g381837g56c43.jpg)

Performance Results and Compensation Decisions

2022 INCENTIVE AWARDS

In determining total incentive awards for each NEO in 2022, the CNGC used a balance scorecard to consider overall Company and individual performance and achievements. The CNGC made the determination to fund the annual incentive pool down significantly from prior year and total compensation for 2022 performance was funded near target levels. Refer to *CNGC Process to Determine Compensation* and *Components of Ally's Executive-Compensation Program—Incentive Compensation* earlier in this CD&A for more information. Equity awards granted during the 2022 calendar year is reflective of 2021 performance results and compensation decisions.

2020 LONG-TERM PSU AWARDS

The three-year performance period for PSUs granted in 2020 is complete, and the CNGC has certified the following results.

![LOGO](g381837g54p54.jpg)

(a) This is a non-GAAP financial measure. Refer to Appendix A for applicable definitions and reconciliations.

These results reflect management's continued focus on driving Core ROTCE and TSV Growth Rate for the benefit of stockholders. Their calculation included adjustments for items designated by the CNGC at the time of grant, primarily the effect of impacts associated with acquisition activity and litigation settlements.

INDIVIDUAL PERFORMANCE AND COMPENSATION DECISIONS

The compensation-decision tables that follow are not meant to be substitutes for *the Summary Compensation Table* set forth later in this proxy statement but are provided to show the compensation approved by the CNGC for the NEOs' performance during 2022. The values and other information in these tables differ from those shown in the *Summary Compensation Table* due to SEC rules requiring that salary be reported for the past year rather than the coming year and that equity-based awards be reported based on the year of grant rather than the service year to which they relate. Accordingly, the base salary and the PSUs and RSUs reflected in the following tables will be reported in next year's Summary Compensation Table, as they were effective or granted in 2023. The value of PSUs assume that the related performance goals are achieved at the target. For further information on all long-term incentive awards, refer to *Components of Ally's Executive-Compensation Program—Long-Term Incentive Awards* earlier in this CD&A.

Compensation Policies and Governance Practices

STOCK-OWNERSHIP GUIDELINES

The Board believes that the interests of management and stockholders are further aligned by stock-ownership guidelines for the CEO and other Purview Executives. As a result, the Governance Guidelines provide for the following minimum ownership levels:

![LOGO](g381837g00z11.jpg)

Ownership is generally based on whether the executive is meaningfully exposed to changes in the share price of Ally stock and, as a result, includes 100% of shares owned outright, 50% of unvested RSUs that settle in shares, and 50% of any earned but unvested PSUs that settle in shares. The Board understands, however, that some period of time will be required for a newly employed or promoted executive to accumulate the requisite shares and that family or other personal reasons may necessitate a sale of accumulated shares. To ensure that the purposes of these stock-ownership guidelines are achieved, whenever the minimum ownership level is not achieved or maintained, the executive must retain 50% of the net (after tax) shares received from any equity grant that has been made since Ally's initial public offering.

CLAWBACK PROVISIONS AND RELATED REVIEWS

Ally's executive-compensation program is designed to balance risk and reward in its businesses and operations and to discourage any exposure to inappropriate, excessive, or imprudent risks.

In support of these aims, Ally engages in a "loss trigger" review, which is applicable to the CEO, other Purview Executives, and all other MRTs who received deferred incentive-compensation awards (cash- or equity-based) for any year in which they were classified as MRTs. Prior to the payout of any deferred incentive-compensation award to an MRT, the Company determines if a significant loss or other negative risk outcome has occurred that relates to the risk-taking activities of the MRT. The Company's senior leadership is responsible for assessing the involvement and responsibility of the MRT in such a significant loss or other negative risk outcome and may recommend a downward adjustment or forfeiture of any unpaid portion of the incentive compensation awarded to the MRT. Any recommended reduction or forfeiture of deferred incentive compensation is subject to review and approval by the CNGC as provided in our Enterprise Material Risk Taker Policy.

In addition, input from the leaders of the independent-risk-management and internal-audit functions are considered by the CNGC when reviewing the performance and setting the compensation of the CEO and other Purview Executives. This input covers interactions with the independent-risk-management and internal-audit functions, adherence to Ally's risk-management framework, the promotion of Ally's risk culture, and specific business and operational practices and processes such as risk assessments, new-product development, issue management, regulatory examinations, internal-audit reviews, and loan reviews.

In connection with its executive-compensation risk assessment in 2022, the Company reviewed and confirmed its right to recoup cash and equity incentive payments in the event those payments were based on a materially inaccurate statement of earnings or other performance criteria, a material misrepresentation, a mistake irrespective of the source or cause, or other similar conduct or circumstances. A recipient who fails to promptly repay Ally in such an event is subject to termination of employment. Details of Ally's recoupment policy are set forth in the following table.

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| &nbsp;&nbsp; Category | Trigger | Vested | Unvested |
| &nbsp;&nbsp; **Financial** | • In the event of a **material restatement** of financial results | ✓ | ✓ |
|  | • In the event of a negative risk outcome resulting in **financial loss** or **earnings impact** to Ally | ✓ | ✓ |
| &nbsp;&nbsp; **Conduct/Culture** | • If the employee engages in **fraudulent activity** | ✓ | ✓ |
|  | • If the employee's behavior results in **consumer harm**, or **reputational, regulatory, or legal damage** to Ally, or otherwise resulted in a **significant violation of Ally's Code of Conduct and Ethics** | ✓ | ✓ |
|  | • If the employee is **terminated for cause** | ✓ | ✓ |
| &nbsp;&nbsp; **Risk-related and Other** | • If the employee significantly **violates a policy or procedure** | ✓ | ✓ |
| &nbsp;&nbsp; **Risk-related and Other** | • If the employee is engaged in **inappropriate or excessive risk-taking** | ✓ | ✓ |

ANTI-HEDGING AND ANTI-PLEDGING POLICIES

The CEO, all other Purview Executives, other specified business and enterprise-function leaders, and all directors, together in each case with their specified associated persons, are subject to personal-trading restrictions to further align the interests of management and directors with those of stockholders. The restrictions apply to all of Ally's securities, including common stock, preferred stock, and debt. In the absence of an exception granted in accordance with Ally's Enterprise General Insider Trading and Blackout Policy, the restrictions prohibit the following:

(1) any transaction that hedges the person's economic interest in and exposure to the full rewards and risks of ownership in a security of Ally,

(2) any put or call option, futures contract, forward contract, swap, or other derivative transaction that relates to a security of Ally and any similar speculative transaction (excluding, for clarity, any transaction under Ally's compensation plans),

(3) any short sale, including a short sale against the box, of a security of Ally,

(4) any pledge of a security of Ally as collateral, including through a margin account (excluding, for clarity, any pledge to a charitable organization that is recognized as such under applicable tax law), and

(5) any limit order involving a security of Ally (excluding a limit order that by its terms is automatically canceled if not filled before the end of the same trading day).

NO EXECUTIVE EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS

The NEOs are employed on an at-will basis, and no NEO is party to an employment agreement with the Company.

SEVERANCE

The NEOs are eligible for benefits under the Ally Financial Inc. Severance Plan. See *Potential Payments Upon a Termination* later in this proxy statement.

LEADERSHIP CHANGES

The Company entered into a Transition Services and Release Agreement effective October 15, 2022, with Ms. LaClair (Agreement) where the Company determined (termination without cause) that Ms. LaClair would leave her position as Chief Financial Officer and transition to a temporary role as Senior Operating Adviser until her employment ended on March 3, 2023 (Transition End Date). Under the Agreement, Ms. LaClair (1) served as a Senior Operating Adviser, received her annual base salary of $750,000, and remained eligible for equivalent benefits and perquisites through the Transition End Date, (2) remained eligible for 2022 cash and equity-based incentive-compensation awards commensurate with the position of Chief Financial Officer and her and Ally's 2022 performance as determined by the CNGC (provided however that if she reasonably and in good faith satisfied the terms and conditions contained in the Agreement, such 2022 incentive-compensation awards would be no less than her 2022 target incentive compensation of $3.75 million, with 40% in the form of cash and 60% in the form of RSUs), (3) received a lump-sum cash payment of $750,000 after the Transition End Date, and (4) would be eligible for reimbursement of up to $20,000 for outplacement assistance and other identified services. In reviewing 2022 performance and under the Agreement, the CNGC awarded Ms. LaClair her target incentive compensation of $3.75 million, with 40% in the form of cash and 60% in the form of RSUs. Ms. LaClair was also reimbursed $20,000 for identified services. Further, the Agreement provided for Ms. LaClair to fully vest on the Transition End Date in (a) her then unvested time-based equity awards, with each such award settling as originally scheduled, and (b) her then unvested performance-based stock unit awards, with each such award settling as originally scheduled subject to (i) the achievement of the related performance goals and (ii) if the achievement of the related performance goals exceeds the target, a proration of the number of shares distributable in excess of the target number of shares. The Agreement also includes Ms. LaClair's general release of claims subject to customary exceptions, her obligations of confidentiality and cooperation, and other customary provisions.

TAX AND ACCOUNTING

Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (Code) limits the tax deductibility of compensation for certain executive officers to $1 million. The CNGC is not limited to paying compensation that is fully deductible and retains the flexibility to consider tax and accounting impacts as some of the factors among many in structuring our executive-compensation program.

CNGC Report

The CNGC has reviewed and discussed with management the Compensation Discussion and Analysis that immediately precedes this report. Based on this review and discussion, the CNGC recommended to the Board that the Compensation Discussion and Analysis be included in this proxy statement and incorporated by reference into the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, as filed with the SEC.

(a) The amounts in this column reflect the actual amounts of salary paid to the NEOs in the relevant fiscal year. For the NEOs' current base salaries, see *Compensation Discussion and Analysis* — *Performance Results and Compensation Decisions* earlier in this proxy statement.

(b) The amounts in this column for 2022 represent the annual cash bonuses paid to the NEOs in February 2023 in respect of 2022 performance, based on achievement of the CNGC's assessment of overall Company and individual performance. For additional information on these bonuses, see *Compensation Discussion and Analysis* — *Components of Ally's Executive-Compensation Program* earlier in this proxy statement.

(c) These amounts reflect the aggregate grant date fair values of the RSUs, cash-settled PSUs (for NEOs other than Mr. B. Brown), and stock-settled PSUs (for Mr. B. Brown) granted under the ICP to the NEOs, in each case, calculated in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718. The actual value that the NEOs will realize for these awards is a function of the value of the underlying shares if and when these awards vest and, for the PSUs, the level of attainment of the applicable performance goals. The amounts for the PSUs granted in 2022 were calculated based on the probable outcome of the performance conditions as of the grant date, consistent with the estimate of aggregate compensation cost to be recognized over the service period determined as of the grant date under FASB ASC Topic 718. For these amounts, see the *Grants of Plan-Based Awards in 2022* table later in this proxy statement. The following are the values of the 2022 PSUs as of the grant date assuming attainment of the maximum level of performance: Mr. J. Brown, $6,825,029; Mr. B. Brown, $510,027; Ms. Morais, $2,025,024; Mr. Stengel, $1,102,556; Mr. Timmerman, $2,092,513; and Ms. LaClair, $2,025,024.

(a) These amounts reflect the cash-settled PSUs (for NEOs other than Mr. B. Brown), and stock-settled PSUs (for Mr. B. Brown) granted to the NEOs in 2022, which are scheduled to vest between 0% and 150% of the number of shares shown in the "Target" sub-column based on attainment of both a service condition that will lapse on the third anniversary of the date of grant and the achievement of the applicable Core ROTCE and TSV performance metrics during the performance period commencing on January 1, 2022 and ending on December 31, 2024. The amounts in the "Threshold" sub-column reflect 25% of the shares shown in the "Target" sub-column that will vest on attainment of the service condition and the threshold performance level. If either the service condition or the threshold performance level is not attained, the cash-settled PSUs (for NEOs other than Mr. B. Brown) and stock-settled PSUs (for Mr. B. Brown) will be forfeited. The amounts in the "Target" sub-column reflect 100% of the shares that will vest on attainment of the service condition and the target performance level. The amounts in the "Maximum" sub-column reflect 150% of the shares that will vest on attainment of the service condition and the maximum performance level. For more information on the terms of these awards, see *Compensation Discussion and Analysis— Components of Ally ' s Executive-Compensation Program—Summary of Outstanding PSUs* earlier in this proxy statement.

(b) The amounts in this column represent the number of shares of Ally common stock underlying the award of RSUs granted to the NEOs in 2022. In January 2022, we awarded our employees with 100 RSUs (subject to a 3-year cliff vesting schedule) in recognition of our notable accomplishments and to support a founder's mentality. The remaining RSUs granted in conjunction with our routine compensation decisions are scheduled to vest in equal installments on each of the first three anniversaries of the date of grant, based solely on service.

(c) The amounts in this column reflect the aggregate grant date fair values of the awards, calculated in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718, excluding the effect of estimated forfeitures and, for PSUs, based on the probable outcome of the applicable Core ROTCE and TSV performance metrics as of the grant date. The grant date fair value amounts shown do not reflect realized cash compensation by the NEOs. The actual value, if any, realized by each NEO for these awards is a function of the value of the shares if and when these awards vest. For the value of the cash-settled PSUs (for NEOs other than Mr. B. Brown) and stock-settled PSUs (for Mr. B. Brown), assuming attainment of the Core ROTCE and TSV performance metrics at the maximum level of performance, see footnote c to the *Summary Compensation Table* above. For additional information on how we account for long-term incentive compensation, see Note 23 to our consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

(d) RSUs for Mr. J. Brown, Mr. B. Brown, Ms. Morais, and Mr. Timmerman, excluding the grant of 100 RSUs on January 28, 2022, are nonforfeitable since they have attained retirement eligibility pursuant to the terms of the awards.

(a) The amounts reflected in this column represent the number of shares of Ally common stock underlying (i) the RSUs granted to the NEOs in 2020, 2021, and 2022 that are scheduled to vest over three years from the date of grant, in each case, based solely on service, (ii) the cash-settled PSUs (for NEOs other than Mr. B. Brown) and stock-settled PSUs (for Mr. B. Brown) granted to the NEOs in 2020 (reflected based on actual achievement of 100% for the performance period that ended on December 31, 2022), and (iii) the 100 RSUs granted to employees in 2020, 2021, and 2022 in recognition of our notable accomplishments and to support a founder's mentality.

(b) The market values of the awards were calculated by multiplying the number of shares underlying the awards by $24.45, which was the closing price of Ally's common stock on December 31, 2022.

(c) The amounts reflected in this column represent the number of shares of Ally common stock underlying the cash-settled PSUs (for NEOs other than Mr. B. Brown), and stock-settled PSUs (for Mr. B.

(a) All amounts exclude those shares becoming nonforfeitable vesting solely due to retirement eligibility.

(b) The value realized on vesting of the equity was calculated by multiplying the number of shares of Ally common stock underlying awards that vested in 2022 by the closing price on the vesting date. The closing price was $46.77 for shares vesting on January 28, 2022, and $49.03 for shares vesting on February 1, 2022.

NONQUALIFIED DEFERRED COMPENSATION IN 2022

Our benefit program includes the tax-qualified Ally Financial Inc. Retirement Savings Plan (Savings Plan). We provide the Savings Plan to support our employees in saving for retirement in a manner that is favorable from a tax perspective. Eligible compensation under the Savings Plan is composed of salary and certain cash bonuses. Under the Savings Plan, after one year of employment, employee contributions up to 6% of eligible compensation are matched 100% by Ally, and this matched amount vests in full immediately. Effective the first of the month following 30 days of employment, the Savings Plan also provides for a 2% nonmatching contribution on eligible compensation, posted each pay cycle, and an additional annual discretionary nonmatching contribution on eligible base pay of up to 2%, which is subject to the Company's performance. Nonmatching contributions fully vest after the individual has been employed for three years.

Ally also maintains the Enhanced Retirement Savings Plan, which is a nonqualified benefit equalization plan for highly compensated employees. This plan was designed to allow for the equalization of benefits for highly compensated employees when such employees qualified plan benefits were limited by the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended by the Code. Ally suspended nonqualified contributions to this plan in 2009 and has not made any since that time, including in 2022. Certain NEOs maintain balances within the plan. This plan is maintained as an unfunded plan, and all expenses for administration of the plan and payment of amounts to participants are borne by Ally.

Potential Payments Upon a Termination

ALLY FINANCIAL INC. SEVERANCE PLAN

All NEOs are eligible to participate in the Severance Plan, which entitles each NEO to receive (i) two times the sum of their annual base salary and designated annual cash-incentive compensation opportunity, (ii) the pro-rated designated annual cash-incentive compensation opportunity for the year of their termination, and (iii) a payment equal to 24 months of medical premiums valued at their COBRA rate, in the event of a qualifying termination of employment or a termination of service without cause (as summarized below), in each case, within the 24-month period immediately following a change in control.

In the event of a qualifying termination that is not in connection with a change in control, our CEO is entitled to receive two times base salary and all other NEOs are entitled to receive one times their base salary. The plan also provides for outplacement benefits at a level determined by the Company based on the individual's level within the organization, market conditions, and geographic area.

The Severance Plan generally defines qualifying terminations of employment as: (i) the elimination of a participant's current position, termination associated with the reduction in the total number of employees in the same department performing the same or similar job, or termination associated with a restructuring of different departments which results in the reduction in the total number of employees, including the participant, in the affected departments; (ii) a substantial change in current duties for which the participant no longer qualifies; (iii) a substantial change in the participant's current duties which results in a 20% or more reduction in the participant's base salary; or (iv) declining a geographic transfer in connection with the elimination of the participant's current position to a new position at a location more than 50 miles from the location of the participant's current position regardless of whether reimbursement of relocation expenses is offered.

ANNUAL RSUS

In the event of a NEO's termination of employment (a) due to death, "disability" or "retirement," (b) by Ally without "cause," or (c) in the case of RSUs granted to the NEOs, due to a "qualifying termination" (as such terms are defined in the ICP and summarized below, the unvested portion of the RSUs will fully vest as of the date of such termination of service and will be paid as follows: (i) in the case of a termination due to death or disability, within 75 days of such termination of employment and (ii) in the case of a termination by Ally without cause due to a qualifying termination or due to retirement, on the award's original settlement dates.

In the case of a NEO who is employed by a business unit of the Company, if the NEO is terminated (i) as a result of a "sale of such business unit" (as defined in the ICP and summarized below) or (ii) without cause or due to a qualifying termination, in each case, within the 24-month period immediately following the sale of such business unit, then all unvested RSUs will fully vest as of the date of such termination and will be paid on the award's original settlement dates.

In the event of a "change in control" (as defined in the ICP and summarized below), if the RSUs are not continued or converted into a restricted stock or RSU over to shares of the survivor or successor (or parent corporation) on a basis substantially equivalent to the consideration received by stockholders of Ally in connection with the change in control, the outstanding RSUs will vest and be immediately due and payable. If the RSUs are continued or converted as described above, then in the event of a termination of the NEO's employment without cause or due to a qualifying termination within the 24-month period following the change in control, the RSUs will fully vest and become immediately payable.

ANNUAL PSUS

In the event of a NEO's termination of employment due to death or disability, the PSUs will fully vest as of the date of such termination of employment and will be paid within 75 days of such termination of employment, with the performance conditions applicable to the PSUs deemed achieved (i) at the target performance level if the termination of service occurs prior to the end of the performance period or (ii) based on actual performance if the termination of service occurs on or after the last day of the performance period.

In the event of a NEO's termination of employment (a) due to retirement, (b) by the Company without cause, or (c) due to a qualifying termination (whether as a result of a sale of a business unit or otherwise), in each case, other than in connection with a change in control, the PSUs will fully vest as of the date of such termination of employment, subject to achievement of the applicable performance conditions and will be payable on the award's original settlement dates. However, in the case of a termination of employment by the Company without cause or due to a qualifying termination (whether as a result of a sale of a business unit or otherwise), if the performance goals are achieved above the target performance level, the number of shares that will be payable in excess of the target number of shares will be prorated based on the number of calendar days during the performance period the NEO was employed by the Company.

In the event of a change in control, if the PSUs are not continued or converted into a restricted stock award over to shares of the survivor or successor (or parent corporation) on a basis substantially equivalent to the consideration received by stockholders of Ally in connection with the change in control, the outstanding PSUs will vest and be immediately due and payable. If the PSUs are continued or converted as described above, then in the event of a termination of the NEO's employment without cause or due to a qualifying termination within the 24-month period following the change in control, the RSUs will fully vest and the award will be payable on the earlier of (i) the original payment date or (ii) (a) the date of termination of employment for any reason other than due to death or disability or (b) within 75 days of the date of termination due to death or disability. At the time of a change in control, PSUs are converted to restricted stock as follows: (1) if more than half of the performance period has elapsed at the time of the change in control and achievement of the performance metrics is determinable, as determined by the CNGC, the performance goals will be deemed achieved based on actual performance as of the date of the change in control; or (2) if less than half of the performance period has elapsed at the time of the change in control or achievement of the performance metrics is not determinable, the performance goals will be deemed achieved at the target performance level.

Under the ICP, "cause," "change in control," "disability," "qualifying termination," "retirement," and "sale of such business unit" are generally defined as follows:

• "Cause" generally means, unless otherwise defined in any employment agreement with the participant (if any) or as otherwise provided in an individual award agreement, the participant's: (i) conviction for a felony or misdemeanor involving moral turpitude; (ii) failure to perform any material responsibility of the leadership position; (iii) a course of conduct, which would tend to hold the Company or any of its affiliates in disrepute or scandal, as determined by the Board in its sole discretion; (iv) failure to follow lawful directions of the Board; (v) any material breach of fiduciary duty to the Company; (vi) gross negligence; (vii) willful misconduct; (viii) failure to comply with a material Company policy; (ix) any act of fraud, theft, or dishonesty; (x) breach of any restrictive covenants set forth in the ICP; or (xi) failure to promptly repay any award payment that is determined to be owed to the Company pursuant to the recoupment or "clawback" provisions under the ICP.

• "Disability" generally means, unless otherwise provided in an individual award agreement, (i) a long-term disability that entitles the participant to disability income payments under any long-term disability plan or policy provided by the Company under which the participant is covered, as such plan or policy is then in effect; or (ii) if such participant is not covered under a long-term disability plan or policy provided by the Company at such time for whatever reason, then the term "disability" means disability within the meaning of Treasury Reg. Section 1.409A-3(i)(4).

• "Qualifying Termination" generally means a termination of employment or service as a result of any of the following: (i) elimination of the participant's current position or reduction in the total number of employees in the same department performing the same or similar job; (ii) a substantial change in current duties for which the employee no longer qualifies; (iii) a substantial change in current duties, which results in a 20% or more reduction in salary; or (iv) declining a geographic transfer of the participant's current position in connection with the elimination of the participant's current position to a new position at a location more than 50 miles from the location of participant's current position, regardless of whether the participant was offered reimbursement of relocation expenses.

(a) Represents a cash payment equal to two-times base salary following a change in control and one-times base salary for a qualified termination without cause. Mr. Timmerman's annual base salary rate as of December 31, 2022 was $750,000.

(b) Represents a cash payment under the Company Severance Plan equal to two-times annual cash incentive opportunity in the event of a "Change in Control" (as defined in the plan). Mr. Timmerman's annual cash incentive opportunity rate as of December 31, 2022 was $1,580,000.

(c) Mr. Timmerman's outstanding RSUs and cash-settled PSUs granted in 2020, 2021, and 2022 would not require acceleration as he has attained retirement eligibility pursuant to the terms of the awards except for the 100 RSUs granted in 2020, 2021, and 2022 to employees in recognition of our notable accomplishments and to support a founder's mentality. These grants do not have retirement eligibility acceleration provisions. As of December 31, 2022, the value of these outstanding awards was $3,418,599.

(d) Represents the estimated value of outplacement services provided under the Company Severance Plan, at a level which is determined by the CNGC on an individual basis.

PAY RATIO

The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 and SEC Regulation S-K require a public company to disclose the annual total compensation of its Principal Executive Officer (PEO), the median of the annual total compensation of all employees of the company excluding the PEO, and the ratio of those two amounts.

Median-Employee Determination

A list of all 11,649 employees as of December 31, 2022, was prepared. Our 48 international employees (47 in Canada and 1 in Belgium) and the PEO were excluded, resulting in 11,600 total employees. To determine our median employee from this adjusted employee population, we used base salary plus 2022 target incentive opportunity. Base salaries and target incentive opportunities were annualized for permanent employees who were not employed by us for all of 2022.

2022 Pay Ratio Calculation

We determined our median employee's annual total compensation for 2022 utilizing the same methodology that is used in determining the total compensation of our NEOs as set forth in the 2022 *Summary Compensation Table* earlier in this proxy statement. Mr. J. Brown's compensation for 2022 was $14,439,223, which is approximately 132 times our median employee's 2022 annual total compensation of $109,445. The Company believes that the foregoing ratio is a reasonable estimate determined in accordance with SEC rules.

Please note that SEC rules for identifying the median employee and calculating the pay ratio allow companies to apply various methodologies and assumptions, and as result, the pay ratio reported by us may not be comparable to pay ratios reported by other companies.

PAY VERSUS PERFORMANCE

As required by Section 953(a) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K, we are providing the following information about the relationship between executive compensation actually paid (as defined by SEC rules) (CAP) and certain financial performance measures of the Company. The CNGC did not consider the pay versus performance disclosure when making its incentive compensation decisions. For further information about how we align executive compensation with the Company's performance, refer to Compensation Discussion and Analysis earlier in this proxy statement. The amounts in the table below are calculated in accordance with SEC rules and do not represent amounts actually earned or realized by our NEOs, including with respect to RSUs and PSUs. Refer to the Other Compensation Tables earlier in this proxy statement for more information.

The following table sets forth the compensation for our PEO and the average compensation for our other NEOs, each as reported in the Summary Compensation Table (SCT) and with certain adjustments to reflect CAP. The table also provides information with respect to cumulative TSR, peer group cumulative TSR, net income, and the Company's selected performance measure, Core ROTCE.

During the year ended December 31, 2022, results were favorably impacted by higher net financing revenue and other interest income, as well as lower income tax expense. These items were more than offset by higher provision for credit losses, noninterest expense, and other loss on investments during 2022.

During the year ended December 31, 2021, results were favorably impacted by higher net financing revenue driven by lower interest expense and lower net depreciation expense on operating lease assets, and lower provision for credit losses associated with improved macroeconomic conditions. These items were partially offset by higher noninterest expense and increased income tax expense from continuing operations during 2021.

## proposal 2

## advisory vote on executive compensation
Section 14A of the Exchange Act and SEC Rule 14a-21 require us, at least every third calendar year, to hold a non-binding stockholder advisory vote at our annual meeting on the compensation paid to our NEOs as disclosed in our proxy statement in accordance with applicable SEC rules. This is commonly known as a say-on-pay advisory vote.

Under the Company's executive-compensation program, the NEOs are rewarded for the achievement of specific annual, long-term, strategic, and corporate goals as well as the realization of increased stockholder value. Please read the *Compensation Discussion and Analysis* along with the information in the compensation tables for additional details about the executive-compensation program, including information about the fiscal year 2022 compensation of the NEOs.

Stockholders are asked to indicate their support for the NEO compensation as described in this proxy statement. This say-on-pay advisory vote is not intended to address any specific item of compensation but rather the overall compensation of the NEOs and the compensation philosophy, policies, and practices described in this proxy statement. Accordingly, stockholders are requested to vote on the following resolution at the Annual Meeting:

"RESOLVED, that the Company's stockholders approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of the Named Executive Officers, as disclosed in the Company's Proxy Statement for the 2023 Annual Meeting of Stockholders pursuant to the compensation disclosure rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the *Compensation Discussion and Analysis*, the *2022 Summary Compensation Table*, and the other related tables and disclosures."

This say-on-pay vote is advisory and, therefore, not binding on the Company, the CNGC, or the Board. The Board and the CNGC, however, greatly value the opinions of stockholders, and to the extent that there is a significant vote against the NEO compensation as disclosed in this proxy statement, the CNGC will consider stockholders' concerns and will evaluate whether any actions are necessary to address those concerns.

The Board recommends that stockholders vote FOR the advisory resolution approving the compensation paid to our named executive officers as disclosed in this proxy statement.

Compensation Risk Assessment

The CNGC, with the assistance of Ally's Risk and Human Resources functions, conducts an annual assessment of the risks associated with Ally's compensation policies and practices. Based on the assessment conducted during 2022 and through the 2022–2023 compensation cycle, the CNGC believes that the design, implementation, and governance of Ally's incentive-compensation program are consistent with high standards of risk management (including the Interagency Guidance on Sound Incentive Compensation Policies issued by U.S. banking agencies) and that Ally's incentive-compensation policies and practices reflect an appropriate mix of compensation elements, balancing short-term and long-term performance objectives, cash- and equity-based compensation, and risks and rewards.

The CNGC in 2022 also reviewed Ally's compensation policies and practices as generally applicable to all of our employees and believes that these policies and practices do not encourage excessive or unnecessary risk taking and that any level of risk that they do encourage is not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company. This conclusion has been reported by the CNGC to the Board. In addition, in keeping with this conclusion, Ally's Enterprise Compensation Policy authorizes the cancellation, recovery, or other recoupment of variable pay if the Board, the CNGC, or the CEO, as applicable, determines that the variable pay was based on a materially inaccurate statement of earnings or other performance criteria, a material misrepresentation or a mistake irrespective of the source or cause, or other similar conduct or circumstances.

## proposal 3

## ratification of the engagement of the independent registered public accounting firm
The AC is solely and directly responsible for the appointment, compensation, retention, oversight, and replacement of the Company's independent registered public accounting firm. For additional information about these responsibilities, refer to the *Audit Committee Report* later in this proxy statement.

After assessing the performance, qualifications, independence, objectivity, and professional skepticism of Deloitte & Touche LLP*—*the Company's current independent registered public accounting firm*—*the AC and the Board believe that the continued retention of Deloitte & Touche as our independent auditor is in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders. Deloitte & Touche has been serving the Company and its subsidiaries in this role for decades and has advised the Company that its members have no direct or indirect financial interest in the Company or any of its subsidiaries.

The Board asks our stockholders to ratify the AC's engagement of Deloitte & Touche as the Company's independent auditor for fiscal year 2023. The AC, however, will retain its sole authority over the appointment, compensation, retention, oversight, and replacement of the Company's independent auditor. As a result, in the event that the engagement of Deloitte & Touche is not ratified by stockholders, the AC will consider that action in the ongoing exercise of its authority over the independent auditor but will be under no obligation to engage a new independent auditor. In addition, even if the engagement is ratified, the AC will retain its discretion to terminate the appointment at any time during the year, to engage a new independent auditor, and to take any other related action if judged by the AC to be in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders.

Representatives of Deloitte & Touche are expected to be present at the Annual Meeting and will have an opportunity to make a statement if they desire to do so. We also expect that these representatives will be available to respond to appropriate questions from stockholders.

The Board recommends that stockholders vote FOR the ratification of the Audit Committee's engagement of Deloitte & Touche LLP as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for 2023.

Fees of the Principal Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

Total fees for professional services provided by our principal independent registered public accounting firm, Deloitte & Touche LLP, for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 are as follows:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| &nbsp;&nbsp; ($ in millions) | 2022 | 2021 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp; Audit fees<sup>(a)</sup> | $8 | $7 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp; Audit-related fees<sup>(b)</sup> | 2 | 2 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp; Audit and audit-related fees | 10 | 9 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp; Tax fees<sup>(c)</sup> | 1 | 2 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp; Total fees | $11 | $11 |

---

(a) Audit fees include fees for the integrated audit of Ally's annual Consolidated Financial Statements, reviews of interim financial statements included in Ally's Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, and audit services in connection with statutory and regulatory filings.

(b) Audit-related fees include fees for assurance and related services that are traditionally performed by the principal accountant, including attest services related to servicing and compliance, comfort letters for securities issuances, agreed-upon procedures relating to securitizations and financial-asset sales, and consultation on financial accounting and reporting standards.

(c) Tax fees include fees for services performed for tax compliance, tax planning, and tax advice, including preparation of tax returns and claims for refund. Tax planning and advice also include assistance with tax audits and appeals and tax advice related to specific transactions.

Our Enterprise Independent Auditor Services and Preapproval Policy is approved by the AC and sets forth the processes that must be followed when engaging the independent registered public accounting firm. For both audit services and non-audit services, the AC will consider whether the firm's provision of the services is consistent with the SEC's rules on auditor independence and would not impair the independence of the firm with respect to us. The AC will also consider any other matters it deems relevant, including as appropriate whether the firm is best positioned to provide the most effective and efficient service given its familiarity with our business and operations.

Consistent with the Enterprise Independent Auditor Services and Preapproval Policy, the independent registered public accounting firm annually presents to the AC (1) an engagement letter that sets forth the annual integrated audit services (including quarterly reviews) and fees and (2) a summary of services that sets forth statutory audits, projected non-audit reports, and other projected services that may be requested during the fiscal year together with corresponding fees. The AC will review and, in its discretion, preapprove these services and fees by appointing the firm and approving the engagement letter and the summary of services.

Any proposed engagement of the firm for a statutory audit, a non-audit report, or other service that was preapproved in the summary of services is directed to the CFO's business line risk-management team, which is charged with verifying that the service was preapproved and will be provided consistent with the fees projected in the summary of services. If the fees for the preapproved service exceed or are expected to exceed the projected fees, the engagement must be approved by the Controller or Chief Tax Officer as applicable (in the case of total fees for the service of $100,000 or less), the Chair of the AC (in the case of total fees for the service of more than $100,000 but less than or equal to $500,000), or the AC (in the case of total fees for the service of more than $500,000).

Any proposed engagement of the firm for an audit or non-audit service that was not preapproved in the annual engagement letter or the summary of services and that does not exceed $500,000 in fees may be preapproved by the Chair of the AC, subject to the condition that the Chair's decision is presented to the AC at a subsequent meeting within a reasonable timeframe. Any proposed engagement of the firm for an audit or non-audit service that was not preapproved in the annual engagement letter or the summary of services and that exceeds $500,000 in fees must be submitted to the AC for preapproval.

Under the Independent Auditor Services and Preapproval Policy, no engagement may be finalized, no financial commitment may be made, and no work may begin related to a proposed engagement of the firm until all appropriate preapprovals have been given and verifications have been made, except in the limited circumstance permitted by Section 10A(i) of the Exchange Act and SEC Rule 2-01(c)(7). All audit and non-audit services performed by Deloitte & Touche in 2022 were approved in accordance with the Independent Auditor Services and Preapproval Policy.

Audit Committee Report

Management is responsible for the Company's internal control over financial reporting, preparation of consolidated financial statements, and overall accounting and financial-reporting processes. Deloitte & Touche LLP, our independent registered public accounting firm, is responsible for planning and conducting an independent audit of the Company's consolidated financial statements in accordance with the standards of the U.S. Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) and for expressing an opinion as to the conformity of these financial statements with GAAP and as to the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting. The Company's Internal Audit function, under the direction of the Chief Audit Executive, is independent of the Company's business units, functionally reports to the AC, and is responsible for preparing an annual audit plan and conducting internal audits to test and evaluate the Company's risk management, governance, and internal controls. The AC is responsible for monitoring and overseeing these activities on behalf of the Board.

The AC, in connection with its monitoring and oversight responsibilities, assesses the activities and performance of the Company's independent auditor, which reports directly to the AC. Annually, the AC considers the results of an evaluation of the performance, qualifications, independence, objectivity, and professional skepticism of the independent auditor in determining whether to retain the firm for the next fiscal year. The AC oversees negotiations associated with the retention of the independent auditor and has the sole authority to approve the engagement letter and the audit fees. In accordance with SEC rules, audit partners are subject to rotation requirements to limit the number of consecutive years that an individual partner may provide services. In conjunction with this five-year mandated rotation of the firm's lead audit partner, the AC and its Chair are directly involved in the selection of the independent auditor's new lead audit partner. The AC has sole authority and direct responsibility to appoint or replace the Company's independent registered public accounting firm. Additionally, the AC has oversight responsibility for the Company's Internal Audit function, including the appointment, retention, performance evaluation, and compensation of the Company's Chief Audit Executive.

The AC discussed the interim financial and other information contained in each quarterly earnings announcement and periodic SEC filing with management and Deloitte & Touche prior to the public release of the announcement. The AC has reviewed and discussed with management and Deloitte & Touche the Company's audited financial statements as of and for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, management's assessment of the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting, and Deloitte & Touche's evaluation of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. In addition, the AC has discussed with Deloitte & Touche the matters that independent registered public accounting firms must communicate to audit committees under applicable PCAOB standards, including Auditing Standard No. 16 (Communications with Audit Committees) which superseded Statement on Auditing Standards No. 61. The AC has received the written disclosures and correspondence from Deloitte & Touche required by applicable requirements of the PCAOB regarding Deloitte and Touche's independence and has discussed with Deloitte & Touche its independence.

Based on these reviews and discussions, the AC recommended to the Board that the Company's audited financial statements be included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, for filing with the SEC.

## other matters
Householding

SEC rules allow the delivery of one proxy statement, annual report, or notice of internet availability of proxy materials, as applicable, to all stockholders who share an address if specified conditions are met. This is called householding and can minimize the costs involved in printing and delivering proxy materials as well as the associated impact on the environment. For eligible stockholders who share an address, we are sending only one proxy statement, annual report, or notice of internet availability, as applicable, to that address unless we received instructions to the contrary from any stockholder at that address.

If you are the beneficial owner but not the record holder of our common stock, your broker, bank, or other nominee may household our proxy statements, annual reports, or notices of internet availability, as applicable, for all stockholders at your address unless that nominee has received contrary instructions from one or more of the affected stockholders. If you want this householding to cease or if you want householding to commence, please notify your broker, bank, or other nominee.

If you did not receive a separate copy of our proxy statement, annual report, or notice of internet availability, as applicable, we will promptly provide you with a separate copy if you request one by contacting us as follows:

Ally believes that the non-GAAP financial measures here may be useful to readers, but these are supplemental to and not a substitute for GAAP financial measures.

Adjusted Earnings per Share (Adjusted EPS) is a non-GAAP financial measure that adjusts GAAP earnings per share for revenue and expense items that are typically strategic in nature or that management otherwise does not view as reflecting the operating performance of the company. Management believes Adjusted EPS can help the reader better understand the operating performance of the core businesses and their ability to generate earnings. In the numerator of Adjusted EPS, GAAP net income attributable to common stockholders is adjusted for the following items: (1) excludes discontinued operations, net of tax, as Ally is primarily a domestic company and sales of international businesses and other discontinued operations in the past have significantly

impacted GAAP EPS, (2) adds back the tax-effected non-cash Core Original Issue Discount, (3) adjusts for tax-effected repositioning and other which are primarily related to the extinguishment of high cost legacy debt, strategic activities and significant other one-time items, (4) excludes equity fair value adjustments (net of tax) related to ASU 2016-01 which requires change in the fair value of equity securities to be recognized in current period net income as compared to periods prior to 1/1/18 in which such adjustments were recognized through other comprehensive income, a component of equity, (5) excludes significant discrete tax items that do not relate to the operating performance of the core businesses and adjusts for preferred stock capital actions (e.g., Series A and Series G) that have been taken by the company to normalize its capital structure, as applicable, for respective periods.

Adjusted Efficiency Ratio is a non-GAAP financial measure that management believes is helpful to readers in comparing the efficiency of its core banking and lending businesses with those of its peers. In the numerator of Adjusted Efficiency Ratio, total noninterest expense is adjusted for Rep and warrant expense, Insurance segment expense, and repositioning and other which are primarily related to the extinguishment of high-cost legacy debt, strategic activities and significant other one-time items, as applicable, for respective periods. In the denominator, total net revenue is adjusted for Insurance segment revenue and Core Original Issue Discount.

Adjusted Tangible Book Value Per Share (Adjusted TBVPS) is a non-GAAP financial measure that reflects the book value of equity attributable to stockholders even if Core Original Issue Discount balance were accelerated immediately through the financial statements. As a result, management believes Adjusted TBVPS provides the reader with an assessment of value that is more conservative than GAAP common stockholder's equity per share. Adjusted TBVPS generally adjusts common equity for: (1) goodwill and identifiable intangibles, net of deferred tax liabilities (DTLs), (2) tax-effected Core Original Issue Discount balance to reduce tangible common equity in the event the corresponding discounted bonds are redeemed/tendered and (3) Series G discount which reduces tangible common equity as the company has normalized its capital structure, as applicable, for respective periods. In December 2017, tax-effected Core Original Issue Discount balance was adjusted from a statutory U.S. federal tax rate of 35% to 21% ("rate") as a result of changes to U.S. tax law. The adjustment conservatively increased the tax-effected Core Original Issue Discount balance and consequently reduced Adjusted TBVPS as any acceleration of the non-cash charge in the future periods would flow through the financial statements at a 21% rate versus a previously modeled 35% rate.

Core Net Income Available to Common Stockholders is a non-GAAP financial measure that serves as the numerator in the calculations of Adjusted EPS and Core ROTCE and that, like those measures, is believed by management to help the reader better understand the operating performance of the core businesses and their ability to generate earnings. Core net income available to common stockholders adjusts GAAP net income available to common stockholders for discontinued operations net of tax, tax-effected Core Original Issue Discount expense, tax-effected repositioning and other primarily related to the extinguishment of high-cost legacy debt and strategic activities and significant other, preferred stock capital actions, significant discrete tax items and tax-effected changes in equity investments measured at fair value, as applicable, for respective periods.

Core Original Issue Discount (Core OID) amortization expense is a non-GAAP financial measure for Original Issue Discount, and is believed by management to help the reader better understand the activity removed from: Core pre-tax income (loss), Core net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders, Adjusted EPS, Core ROTCE, Adjusted efficiency ratio, Adjusted total net revenue, and Net financing revenue (excluding Core OID). Core OID is primarily related to bond exchange OID which excludes international operations and future issuances.

Core Outstanding Original Issue Discount Balance (Core OID balance) is a non-GAAP financial measure for outstanding OID and is believed by management to help the reader better understand the balance removed from Core ROTCE and Adjusted TBVPS. Core OID balance is primarily related to bond exchange OID which excludes international operations and future issuances.

Core Pre-tax Income is a non-GAAP financial measure that adjusts pre-tax income from continuing operations by excluding (1) Core OID, and (2) equity fair value adjustments related to ASU 2016-01 which requires change in the fair value of equity securities to be recognized in current period net income as compared to periods prior to 1/1/18 in which such adjustments were recognized through other comprehensive income, a component of equity, and (3) Repositioning and other which are primarily related to the extinguishment of high cost legacy debt, strategic activities and significant other one-time items, as applicable for respective periods. Management believes Core Pre-Tax Income can help the reader better understand the operating performance of the core businesses and their ability to generate earnings.

##### [**Table of Contents**](#toc)
Core Return on Tangible Common Equity (Core ROTCE) is a non-GAAP financial measure that management believes is helpful for readers to better understand the ongoing ability of the company to generate returns on its equity base that support core operations. For purposes of this calculation, tangible common equity is adjusted for Core OID balance and net DTA. Ally's core net income attributable to common stockholders for purposes of calculating Core ROTCE is based on the actual effective tax rate for the period adjusted for significant discrete tax items including tax reserve releases, which aligns with the methodology used in calculating adjusted earnings per share.

• In the numerator of Core ROTCE, GAAP net income attributable to common stockholders is adjusted for discontinued operations net of tax, tax-effected Core OID, tax effected repositioning and other which are primarily related to the extinguishment of high cost legacy debt, strategic activities and significant other one-time items, fair value adjustments (net of tax) related to ASU 2016-01 which requires change in the fair value of equity securities to be recognized in current period net income as compared to periods prior to January 1, 2018 in which such adjustments were recognized through other comprehensive income, a component of equity, significant discrete tax items, and preferred stock capital actions, as applicable for respective periods.

• In the denominator, GAAP stockholder's equity is adjusted for goodwill and identifiable intangibles net of DTL, Core OID balance, and net DTA.

Core ROTCE excluding Other Comprehensive Income (Core ROTCE excl. OCI) is used for measuring performance under the PSUs granted in 2023. In addition to the adjustments described earlier for Core ROTCE, GAAP stockholder's equity in the denominator of Core ROTCE excl. OCI is further adjusted for OCI balances.

Tangible Common Equity is a non-GAAP financial measure that is defined as common stockholders' equity less goodwill and identifiable intangible assets, net of deferred tax liabilities. Ally considers various measures when evaluating capital adequacy, including tangible common equity. Ally believes that tangible common equity is important because we believe readers may assess our capital adequacy using this measure. Additionally, presentation of this measure allows readers to compare certain aspects of our capital adequacy on the same basis to other companies in the industry. For purposes of calculating Core ROTCE, tangible common equity is further adjusted for Core OID balance and net deferred tax asset.

Net Financing Revenue (excluding OID) excludes Core OID.

Total Stockholder Value (TSV) is a non-GAAP financial measure that is defined as growth in adjusted TBVPS share plus dividends per share.

Measurement of Performance for PSUs

Consistent with the ICP, for purposes of measuring performance under the PSUs granted by the Company, the CNGC has excluded from Core ROTCE, Core ROTCE excl. OCI, and TSV the impact of designated items so that these performance goals reflect factors that management can directly control and that payout levels are not artificially inflated or impaired by factors unrelated to the ongoing operation of the business.

For the PSUs granted in 2020, the designated items were—in each case, to the extent material and not taken into account in establishing the target levels—(1) litigation and regulatory judgments, charges or settlements and any accruals or reserves relating to litigation or regulatory matters, (2) the effect of changes in law applicable to Ally which shall be measured based on the effect of the changes on revenue, income, assets and liabilities demonstrably caused by such changes in law, (3) the effect of changes in accounting principles, including any related accounting restatements, (4) income, expenses, gains or losses from discontinued operations, (5) the charges and other costs and balance sheet impacts associated with any acquisition, divestiture, restructuring or pre-payment or other early retirement of outstanding debt, and, in the case of an acquisition, any income or loss associated with the acquired business or assets during the performance window, and (6) any items that are categorized as unusual in nature or infrequently occurring within the meaning of GAAP.

For the PSUs granted in 2021, 2022, and 2023, the designated items were—in each case, to the extent material and not taken into account in establishing the target levels—(1) litigation and regulatory judgments, charges or settlements and any accruals or reserves relating to litigation or regulatory matters, (2) the effect of changes in law applicable to Ally which shall be measured based on the effect of the changes on revenue, income, assets and liabilities demonstrably caused by such changes in law, (3) the
