DEAR FELLOW SHAREHOLDERS,

trust with our shareholders and positioning JELD-WEN to deliver its full

financial potential.

Over the past year, JELD-WEN made meaningful progress strengthening the business in a challenging market

environment. Persistent headwinds and continued price-cost pressures weighed on results, yet the organization remained

disciplined and focused on safety, quality and on-time delivery. We took decisive actions to better align the business with

market realities, reinforced operational rigor and enhanced execution, while keeping our customers at the center of our

efforts. We continue to sharpen our focus on a values-based culture underpinned with safety, operational excellence and

continuous improvement. As our long-term strategy evolves, we remain focused on improving profitability, strengthening

cash generation and maintaining financial flexibility.

We continue to invest in leadership and capabilities critical to JELD-WEN's success, including the appointment of Rachael

Elliott as Executive Vice President, North America. Enhancements to our senior leadership team have strengthened

execution, reinforced our customer focus and supported key initiatives that improve quality, performance and customer

experience.

As we look ahead, the senior leadership team with the support of the Board is focused on building a more resilient business

and committed to creating sustainable, long-term value for all stakeholders.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE AT JELD-WEN

**Corporate Governance** 

We believe that good corporate governance helps to ensure that the Company is managed for the long-term benefit of our

stockholders. We regularly review and consider our corporate governance policies and practices, taking into account the U.S.

Securities and Exchange Commission's (the "SEC") corporate governance rules and regulations, the corporate governance

standards of the New York Stock Exchange (the "NYSE") and stockholder feedback.

We have adopted the JELD-WEN Holding, Inc. Board Guidelines on Corporate Governance Matters (the "Corporate

Governance Guidelines"), which provide a framework for the governance of the Company as a whole and describe the

principles and practices that the Board follows in carrying out its responsibilities. Our Corporate Governance Guidelines

address, among other things:

• The composition, structure and policies of the Board and its committees;

• Director qualification standards;

• Expectations and responsibilities of directors;

• Management succession planning;

• The annual evaluation of Board performance;

• The annual evaluation of CEO performance;

• Principles of Board compensation; and

• Communications with stockholders and independent directors.

Our Corporate Governance Guidelines further require that the Board, acting through the Governance and Nominating

Committee (as described below), conduct a self-evaluation at least annually to determine whether it and its committees are

functioning effectively. In addition, our Corporate Governance Guidelines require that each committee conduct an annual self-

evaluation to assess its compliance with the requirements of its charter and the Corporate Governance Guidelines, as well as

ways in which committee processes and effectiveness may be enhanced.

Our Corporate Governance Guidelines are posted in the Governance section of our website at *investors.jeld-wen.com*. Our

Governance and Nominating Committee reviews the Corporate Governance Guidelines at least annually to help ensure that

they effectively promote the best interests of both the Company and our stockholders and that they comply with all applicable

laws, regulations and the corporate governance standards of the NYSE.

We proactively engage with stockholders and other stakeholders throughout the year to learn more about their perspectives on

with a broad base of investors through quarterly earnings calls, investor conferences and roundtables, and individual meetings.

As appropriate, our directors may participate in investor meetings and calls. We take feedback and insights from our

engagement with stockholders and other stakeholders into consideration as we review and evolve our practices and

disclosures, and share this feedback with our Board, as appropriate.

the business

• Clear understanding of

interests and concerns

• Assess emerging issues,

inform decision making and

enhance corporate disclosures

**HOW WE ENGAGE**

• Individual Meetings

• Quarterly Earnings Calls

• Investor Conferences

**Code of Business Conduct and Ethics** 

Our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics is applicable to all of our directors, officers (including our principal executive officer,

principal financial officer and principal accounting officer) and associates. Our Code of Business Conduct is available in the

Governance section of our website at *investors.jeld-wen.com.* If we amend or waive certain provisions of the Code of Business

Conduct applicable to our principal executive officer, principal financial officer or principal accounting officer in a manner that

requires disclosure under applicable SEC rules, we intend to disclose those actions on our website.

**Board Composition and Refreshment** 

The Board seeks input from each of its directors at least annually, with respect to the current composition of the Board to

reflect changes in the Company's current and future business strategies. Our Board strives to have a good balance of

experienced and new directors to ensure a diversity of viewpoints while also maintaining institutional knowledge at the Board

level. Additionally, to promote thoughtful Board refreshment and to maintain a balanced mix of perspectives and experience,

the Board has a mandatory retirement policy for non-employee directors as set forth in the Corporate Governance Guidelines.

Non-employee directors elected or appointed to the Board must retire at the annual meeting following their 75th birthday. In

certain circumstances, the Board may waive this policy and will report the rationale for such waiver in the Company's proxy

materials.

**Board Leadership Structure** 

Strong independent leadership is essential for our Board to effectively perform its primary oversight functions. It is also

important for the Board to retain flexibility to determine its leadership structure based on the particular composition of the

Board and the needs and opportunities of the Company. This allows the Board to choose the leadership structure that it

believes will best serve the interests of the Company and our stockholders at any given time. The Corporate Governance

Guidelines provide the Board this flexibility.

In August 2022, the Board separated the roles of the CEO and Chair. The Board believes that a leadership structure that

separates these roles is appropriate for the Company because it allows the CEO to focus on the Company's strategic

direction, providing day-to-day leadership and managing our business operations, while leveraging the experience, leadership

and perspective of the Chair. The current leadership structure will allow the independent Chair to focus on governance of our

Board.

In addition to the duties of all directors, the Chair has the following responsibilities:

• presides at executive sessions of the independent directors and has the authority to call additional executive sessions

or meetings of the independent directors;

• reviews and provides feedback on meeting agendas and approves meeting schedules for the Board to ensure that

appropriate topics are being addressed and there is sufficient time allocated for discussion of agenda items;

• facilitates communication between the Board and members of senior management; and

• is available for consultation and direct communication with major stockholders, if requested.

**Strategy and Risk Oversight** 

The Board is responsible for overseeing the Company's business strategy, strategic planning and enterprise risk management

program. While the Board and its committees oversee strategic planning, Company management is charged with developing

and executing business strategy. To monitor performance against the Company's strategic goals, the Board and its committees

receive regular updates and actively engage in dialogue with our Company's senior leaders. With respect to risk oversight, the

Board fulfills its responsibility both directly and through its standing committees, each of which assists the Board in overseeing

a part of the Company's overall risk management. Company management is charged with managing risk through robust

internal processes and effective internal controls. At least annually, the Board reviews with management the strategic risks and

opportunities facing the Company. Other important categories of risk as described below are assigned to designated Board

committees, which report their activities to the full Board. The standing committees oversee the following risks:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **COMMITTEE** | **PRIMARY AREAS OF RISK OVERSIGHT** |
| **Audit Committee** | Risks related to major financial risk exposures, including cybersecurity; significant legal, <br>regulatory and compliance issues; enterprise risk management and internal controls<br>|
| **Compensation** <br>**Committee**<br>| Risks associated with compensation policies and practices, including incentive compensation and <br>executive succession planning, and human capital management<br>|
| **Governance and** <br>**Nominating**<br>**Committee**<br>| Risks related to effectiveness of Board and director candidates; conflicts of interest and director <br>independence; stockholder concerns; and sustainability matters, to the extent not reserved to <br>another committee<br>|

---

The Audit Committee meets at least quarterly with our Chief Financial Officer, head of Internal Audit, General Counsel, Chief

Compliance Officer and our independent auditor to receive regular updates regarding management's assessment of risk

exposures, including liquidity, credit and operational risks such as data privacy and cybersecurity, and the processes in place

to monitor such risks and review results of operations, financial reporting and assessments of internal controls over financial

reporting.

---

The Compensation Committee meets at least quarterly to consider management's assessment of human capital and

compensation risks, monitor incentive and equity-based compensation plans and, at least annually, review the Company's

compensation programs to ensure they are appropriately aligned with the Company's strategic direction and avoid

incentivizing unnecessary or excessive risk taking.

The Governance and Nominating Committee meets at least quarterly to oversee risks related to overall corporate governance,

including Board and committee composition and succession planning, director candidates and independence matters, and

other matters of interest to stockholders and other stakeholders, including sustainability issues.

Our Board believes that the division of risk management responsibilities described above is an effective approach for

addressing the risks facing the Company and that our Board leadership structure supports this approach.

**Meetings of the Board and Its Committees** 

During 2025, the Board held thirteen meetings. All of the directors who served during 2025 attended at least 75% of the

aggregate of the total meetings of the Board and its committees on which such director served during their respective tenures.

Directors are expected to make best efforts to attend all Board meetings, committee meetings of which they are a member and

the annual meeting of stockholders. All of our directors attended the annual meeting of stockholders held in 2025.

Pursuant to our Corporate Governance Guidelines, our Board plans to hold at least four meetings each year, with additional

meetings to occur (or action to be taken by unanimous consent, either in writing or by electronic transmission) at the discretion

of the Board.

**Executive Sessions of Independent Directors** 

Pursuant to our Corporate Governance Guidelines, to ensure free and open discussion and communication among the

independent directors of the Board, the independent directors meet in executive session at all Board meetings with no

members of senior management present. Our Chair presides at these executive sessions. Further, our Chair may call

additional meetings of the independent directors as needed.

**Communications with the Board** 

A stockholder or any interested party may submit a written communication to the Board or to the chairperson of any of the

Audit, Compensation, or Governance and Nominating Committees, or to the Chair of the Board, or the independent directors

as a group, by addressing such communications to: Corporate Secretary, JELD-WEN Holding, Inc., 2645 Silver Crescent

Drive, Charlotte, North Carolina 28273. The Corporate Secretary will, as appropriate, forward such communication to our

Board or to any individual director, select directors or committee of our Board to whom the communication is directed. Such

communications may be made confidentially or anonymously. Items that are unrelated to the duties and responsibilities of the

Board will not be forwarded, such as business solicitations or advertisements; product related inquiries; junk mail or mass

mailings; or spam.

**Committees of the Board** 

The Board has an Audit Committee, a Compensation Committee and a Governance and Nominating Committee, as described

below. Each of these committees consists entirely of independent directors. Each of the Audit Committee, Compensation

Committee and Governance and Nominating Committee operates under a written charter approved by the Board, copies of

which are available in the Governance section of our website at *investors.jeld-wen.com.*

**Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation** 

None of our executive officers serve, or in the past year has served, as a member of the board of directors or compensation

committee (or other committee performing equivalent functions) of any entity that has one or more executive officers serving

on our Board or Compensation Committee. No interlocking relationship exists between any member of our Compensation

Committee and any executive, member of the board of directors or member of the compensation committee (or other

committee performing equivalent functions) of any other company.

**Securities Trading and Disclosure Policy** 

The Company has adopted a Securities Trading and Disclosure Policy governing the purchase, sale, and/or other dispositions

of our securities by our directors, officers, and employees that we believe is reasonably designed to promote compliance with

insider trading laws, rules, and regulations, and the NYSE listing standards. The policy prohibits all directors, executive officers

and associates designated under the policy from engaging in short-term or speculative transactions involving Company

securities, including the purchase or sale of financial instruments (including options, puts, calls, straddles, equity swaps or

other derivative securities that are directly linked to Company stock) or other transactions (such as short sales) that are

designed to, or that have the effect of, hedging or offsetting any decrease in the market value of Company stock. The

Securities Trading and Disclosure Policy was filed as Exhibit 19.1 to the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal

year ended December 31, 2025.

Likewise, the policy prohibits pledging of Company stock as collateral by directors and executive officers. No director or

executive officer has pledged Company stock since the adoption of the policy in connection with the Company's initial public

offering ("IPO") in 2017. At the time of the IPO, one director (Mr. Wendt) had an outstanding pledge of 220,000 shares securing

a loan that had been in effect for several years. Because the pledge was entered into prior to the adoption of the policy and to

avoid any hardship on Mr. Wendt that would have resulted from requiring him to eliminate the pledge, Mr. Wendt's existing

pledge at the time of the IPO was grandfathered in and that pledge remains outstanding. The Board reviews the policy from

time to time, and in light of evolving corporate governance standards, in 2021 the Board updated the policy to remove the

Board's ability to waive the policy for exceptional circumstances or any other reason.

**Director and Executive Officer Stock Ownership Guidelines** 

Our directors, executive officers and certain other senior executives are required to maintain a minimum equity stake in the

Company. This policy reflects the Board's belief that our directors and most senior executives should maintain a significant

personal financial stake in JELD-WEN to promote long-term stockholder value. In addition, the policy helps align executive and

stockholder interests, which reduces the incentive for excessive short-term risk taking. Our CEO and other executive officers

are required to acquire and maintain ownership of shares of our common stock equal to a specified multiple of their base

salary. The stock ownership requirement for our executive officers is shown in the table below.

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **Chief Executive Officer** | 6x annual base salary  |
| **Chief Financial Officer** | 3x annual base salary |
| **Other Executive Officers** | 3x annual base salary |
| **Other officers designated by the Board** | 1x annual base salary |

---

Each executive officer must retain 50% of all net shares (post-tax) that vest until achieving their minimum stock ownership

requirement. Our directors must obtain common stock or restricted stock units ("RSUs") with a value equivalent to five times

the annual cash retainer. In addition, our directors are required to retain ownership of the shares acquired until the stock

ownership requirement is met and maintain such ownership.

BOARD OF DIRECTORS

**Role of the Board of Directors** 

The Board oversees the management of the Company's business and affairs. Stockholders elect the members of the Board to

act on their behalf and to oversee their interests. Unless reserved to the stockholders under applicable law or our Bylaws, all

corporate authority resides in the Board as the representative of the stockholders.

The Board selects and appoints executive officers to manage the day-to-day operations of the Company, while retaining

ultimate oversight responsibilities. Together, the Board and management share an ongoing commitment to the highest

standards of corporate governance and ethics. The Board reviews all aspects of our governance policies and practices,

including our Corporate Governance Guidelines and the Company's Code of Business Conduct, at least annually and makes

changes as necessary. The Corporate Governance Guidelines and the Code of Business Conduct, along with all committee

charters, are available in the Governance section of the Company's website at *investors.jeld-wen.com*.

**Director Selection Process** 

**Skills and Qualifications**

The Governance and Nominating Committee is responsible for identifying and reviewing the qualifications of potential director

nominees and recommending to the Board those candidates to be nominated for election to the Board. The Governance and

Nominating Committee does not apply any specific minimum qualifications when considering director nominees. Instead, the

Governance and Nominating Committee considers all factors it deems appropriate, which may include, among others:

• ensuring that the Board as a whole has a balanced mix of perspectives and experience;

• the Board's size and composition;

• the Corporate Governance Guidelines and any applicable laws;

• individual director performance, expertise, relevant business and financial experience, integrity and willingness to serve

actively;

• the number of other public and private company boards on which a director candidate serves; and

• consideration of director nominees properly proposed by third parties with the legal right to nominate directors or by

stockholders in accordance with our Bylaws and SEC rules.

The Governance and Nominating Committee monitors the mix of specific experience, qualifications and skills of the directors

to ensure that the Board, as a whole, has the necessary tools to perform its oversight function effectively in light of the

Company's business and structure. Our Corporate Governance Guidelines set forth the minimum qualifications for Board

members and specify that the Board consider a diversity of viewpoints, backgrounds and experience, including a consideration

of gender, race, ethnicity and age. The Governance and Nominating Committee considers the composition of the Board as a

whole and takes into account the range of perspectives that the directors bring to their work. Stockholders may also nominate

directors for election at the Company's annual stockholders meeting by following the provisions set forth in our Bylaws and

SEC rules, whose qualifications the Governance and Nominating Committee will consider and evaluate on a basis

substantially similar to the basis on which it considers other nominees.

The Board has nominated ten directors for election at the Annual Meeting, to serve until the 2027 Annual Meeting of

Stockholders and until their respective successors have been elected and qualified.

The Board has nominated ten individuals who bring valuable and diverse skills, experiences and characteristics to the Board.

Their collective experience covers a wide range of industries across the globe. Our directors range in age from 50 to 73. Four

of our director nominees are women, and eight are current or former CEOs or CFOs. Further, our Board has a good balance of

tenured and newer directors, with an average tenure of six years among our independent directors.

The director nominees have consented to being named in this Proxy Statement and to serve as directors if elected at the

Annual Meeting. We have no reason to believe that any of the nominees will be unable or unwilling for good cause to serve if

elected. However, if any nominee should become unable for any reason or unwilling to serve between the date of the Proxy

Statement and the Annual Meeting, the Board may designate a new nominee, and the persons named as proxies will vote on

that substitute nominee, or the Board may reduce the number of directors. Each director nominee must be elected by a

plurality of the votes cast. If any of our director nominees receive less than the affirmative vote of the majority of shares voted,

then in accordance with the mandatory resignation policy under the Corporate Governance Guidelines, those individuals must

promptly tender their resignation from the Board.

The Board believes that each of the director nominees is well qualified to serve on the Board, and the backgrounds and

qualifications of all the directors provide a complementary blend of experience, knowledge and abilities. See "The Board of

Directors—Members of the Board of Directors" for additional information on the business experience and qualifications of each

of our director nominees.

Our Board unanimously recommends that you vote "**FOR**" the election of all ten director

nominees.

**Director Independence and Independence Determinations** 

Under our Corporate Governance Guidelines and the listing standards of the NYSE, a director is not independent unless our

Board affirmatively determines that the individual does not have a material relationship with us or any of our subsidiaries. Our

Corporate Governance Guidelines define independence in accordance with the independence definition in the current listing

standards of the NYSE. Our Corporate Governance Guidelines require our Board to review the independence of all directors at

least annually. In the event a director has a relationship with the Company that is relevant to their independence and is not

addressed by the objective tests set forth in the NYSE independence definition, our Board will determine, considering all

relevant facts and circumstances, whether such relationship is material.

Our Board affirmatively determined that Antonella B. Franzen, Catherine A. Halligan, Michael F. Hilton, Tracey I. Joubert,

Cynthia G. Marshall, David G. Nord, Bruce M. Taten and Steven E. Wynne are independent directors under the rules of the

NYSE and independent directors as such term is defined in Rule 10A-3(b)(1) under the Exchange Act.

**Director Resignation Policy** 

Our Corporate Governance Guidelines require any incumbent non-employee director nominee who does not receive the

affirmative vote of the majority of shares voted in connection with an uncontested election to tender their resignation from the

Board promptly following certification of the stockholder vote. The Governance and Nominating Committee will consider and

recommend to the Board whether to accept the resignation. The Board will act on the recommendation and disclose publicly

the results of its decision. Any director who tenders their offer of resignation under this policy will not participate in the

deliberation or determination on whether to accept the resignation.

**Director Compensation Structure** 

The Board approved a Non-Employee Director Compensation Policy that sets forth the compensation of our non-employee

directors. The Governance and Nominating Committee reviews this policy on an annual basis, typically in conjunction with the

annual meeting of stockholders, and recommends changes to the Board as it deems appropriate.

The following table describes the components of our non-employee directors' compensation for 2025:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **COMPENSATION ELEMENT** | **COMPENSATION AMOUNT** |
| **Annual Cash Retainer** | $100000 |
| **Annual Equity Retainer** | $150,000 in RSUs that vest one year from the date of grant |
| **Board and Committee Meeting Fees** |  |
| **Committee Chair Additional Cash** <br>**Retainer\***<br>| $25,000 for the Audit Committee<br>$18,000 for the Compensation Committee<br>$15,000 for the Governance and Nominating Committee<br>|
| **Board Chair/Independent Lead** <br>**Director Additional Cash Retainer**<br>| $180000 |
| **Stock Ownership Requirement\*\*** | Ownership of common stock or RSUs equivalent to five times the annual cash <br>retainer<br>|

---

\*Committee chair retainer paid unless such position is held by the Chair of the Board.

\*\*Given market volatility, the Company removed the five-year compliance period. However, directors are required to retain ownership of shares acquired until the

stock ownership requirement is met and maintain compliance.

**Annual Cash Retainer and Committee Chair Fees** 

Under the Non-Employee Director Compensation Policy, members of the Board who are our employees receive no additional

compensation for their service on the Board. Mr. Christensen was the only employee director in 2025.

**Annual Equity Retainer** 

In 2025, eligible non-employee directors were entitled to an annual grant of $150,000 in RSUs under the JELD-WEN Holding,

Inc. 2017 Omnibus Equity Plan, as amended and restated April 24, 2025 (the "2017 Plan") which RSUs vest one year from the

date of the grant, subject to continued service on the Board through the earlier of the vesting date or the end of the director's

term. Directors who are appointed during the year will be entitled to a pro-rated RSU award. In accordance with this policy, on

May 8, 2025, each of Messrs. Hilton, Nord, Taten, Wendt and Wynne and Mses. Franzen, Halligan, Joubert and Marshall

received a grant of 37,974 RSUs.

**2025 Director Compensation** 

The following table provides summary information for the year ended December 31, 2025, relating to compensation paid to or

accrued by us on behalf of our directors who served in this capacity during 2025. Pursuant to the Non-Employee Director

Compensation Policy approved by the Board, Mr. Christensen was an employee of the Company and consequently did not

receive any compensation for serving as a director. Mr. Christensen's compensation is reported in the Summary

Compensation Table and related compensation tables beginning on page 44.

**Policy Regarding Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions** 

Our Board has adopted a written policy providing that the Governance and Nominating Committee, or the Board upon the

affirmative vote of a majority of the disinterested directors, will review and approve or ratify transactions in which we participate

and in which a related party has or will have a direct or indirect material interest. Under this policy, the Governance and

Nominating Committee or the Board is to obtain all information it believes to be relevant to a review and approval or ratification

of these transactions. After consideration of the relevant information, the Governance and Nominating Committee or the Board

is to approve only those related party transactions that it believes are in the best interests of the Company. In particular, our

policy with respect to related party transactions requires our Governance and Nominating Committee or Board to consider the

benefits to the Company; the impact on a director's independence in the event the related party is a director, an immediate

family member of a director or an entity in which a director has a position or relationship; the overall fairness of the transaction

to both the Company and the related party; and any other matters the Governance and Nominating Committee or the Board

or is a holder of more than 5% of our common stock, or, in each case, their immediate family members, any person sharing the

household or any entity owned or controlled by any of the foregoing persons.

In 2025, we did not enter into any new related party transactions for the covered period in which the amount involved

exceeded or will exceed $120,000, and in which any of our executive officers, directors or holders of more than 5% of any

class of our voting securities, or an affiliate or immediate family member thereof, had or will have a direct or indirect material

interest. We have not made payments to non-employee directors, other than the fees they are entitled as described in

"Director Compensation Structure" and reimbursement of expenses related to their services as a director. Compensation paid

to Mr. Christensen is described in the "Summary Compensation Table."

**Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management** 

The following table shows the number of shares of our common stock beneficially owned (as of the close of business on

February 23, 2026) by each of our current directors and NEOs, as well as the number of shares beneficially owned by all of

our current directors and executive officers as a group. The table also shows the number of shares of our common stock

beneficially owned by each person known to us to beneficially own more than 5% of the outstanding shares of the Company.

Determinations as to the identity and holdings of 5% stockholders are based upon filings with the SEC and other publicly

available information. Information with respect to beneficial ownership is based upon information known to us or furnished to

us by each director or executive officer, and on information reported in Schedules 13D or 13G filed with the SEC, as the case

may be.

**Section 1 – Compensation Objectives and Philosophy** 

The Compensation Committee (the "Committee") believes that our executive compensation program should be structured to

provide an attractive, dynamic and market-based total compensation package tied to performance and aligned with the

interests of our stockholders. Accordingly, the Committee's executive compensation philosophy is as follows:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **Reward**<br>**Long-Term Growth**<br>**and Profitability:**<br>Emphasizing executive <br>rewards for the <br>achievement of long-term <br>results aligns the interests <br>of our NEOs with those of <br>our stockholders, thereby <br>providing long-term <br>economic benefit to our <br>stockholders.<br>| **Hire and Retain**<br>**World-Class Talent:**<br>Providing competitive <br>financial incentives in the <br>form of salary, bonus and <br>benefits, and long-term <br>equity awards allows us to <br>attract and retain talented <br>individuals in critical roles.<br>| **Pay for**<br>**Performance:**<br>Placing a significant <br>portion of compensation <br>at-risk through inclusion of <br>performance-based <br>metrics incentivizes <br>NEOs, allowing flexibility <br>for compensation to reflect <br>each individual's <br>contribution to overall <br>performance.<br>| **Avoid Incentivizing**<br>**Undue Risk:**<br>Striking an appropriate <br>balance between short-<br>term and long-term <br>performance permits the <br>incorporation of risk-<br>mitigation design features <br>to discourage excessive <br>risk-taking.<br>|

**Benefits**

Our executive compensation program includes base salaries and emphasizes incentive-based compensation. We use annual

cash incentive compensation and long-term equity incentives to ensure a performance-based delivery of pay that aligns, as

closely as possible, the rewards to our NEOs with the long-term interests of our stockholders, while providing a competitive

opportunity and enhancing executive retention. Compensation of our NEOs is determined by the Committee, which considers

feedback and recommendations from the CEO with respect to his direct reports, along with general feedback from the

Committee's compensation consultant (described below).

**Pay Mix** 

The majority of target compensation for our NEOs, including the CEO, is at-risk, variable compensation, with a significant

portion of such compensation being equity-based compensation. This reflects the principles of our compensation philosophy:

pay-for-performance through the use of at-risk variable pay, use of equity compensation to align executives' interests with

those of our stockholders, and encouragement of both appropriate outcomes and behaviors through the use of a mix of

compensation elements. The following graphs set out the 2025 target total compensation elements for our CEO, Mr.

Christensen, and the average of our other NEOs at the Company on December 31, 2025:

**Incentive Compensation Clawback Policy** 

To promote the highest level of financial integrity and ethical behavior, and to discourage excessive risk-taking, our Committee

adopted an Incentive Compensation Clawback Policy (the "Clawback Policy") allowing the Committee to recover any cash or

equity incentive-based compensation (including time and performance-based equity awards) that is granted, earned or vested

in the event of a restatement of our financial statements, in accordance with SEC rules and NYSE listing standards, or specific

acts of improper conduct, such as fraud, willful misconduct and violations of our Code of Business Conduct. Our Clawback

Policy is available online at *investors.jeld-wen.com*.

**Use of Compensation Consultant** 

The Committee directly engaged Pay Governance as its independent consultant to assist the Committee in fulfilling its

responsibilities, including by providing advice, research and analysis regarding executive compensation trends and norms;

providing recommendations to the Committee regarding the composition of our peer group for purposes of compensation

comparison; reviewing and analyzing peer group and industry information to assist with setting both specific elements of, and

the total amount of, executive compensation; and advising on the structure and operation of the Company's incentive

compensation plans. Pay Governance reports directly to the Committee, and receives no compensation from the Company

other than for its work in advising the Committee. The Committee analyzed any relationships that Pay Governance had with

the Company, members of the Committee, executive officers and management, and concluded that, after consideration of the

specific factors identified by the SEC and the NYSE that may affect the independence of compensation advisors, there were

no independence or conflict-of-interest concerns related to Pay Governance.

**Peer Group** 

The Committee determines the appropriate level of both specific elements of and total compensation for our NEOs by

considering numerous competitive, performance and other factors, including a comparison against a pre-selected peer group.

In consultation with Pay Governance, the Committee has identified a peer group to serve as a benchmark for determining the

compensation of each of our NEOs. The Committee does not target compensation at a specific percentile within the peer or

industry group. Instead, it reviews market data to understand how our NEOs' total compensation compares to competitive

norms.

The Committee in consultation with the compensation consultant and management determined an appropriate peer group for

purposes of compensation comparison by considering published compensation survey data and companies that meet all or

most of the following factors: they operate in a comparable industry, they have comparable revenue and market capitalization

and they are likely competitors with us for executive talent. While the Committee reviews compensation data with a view to

confirming that a given executive's compensation is competitive, it retains the discretion in setting an executive's

compensation. The Committee considered each company individually, as well as the group as a whole, in determining a peer

group appropriate for purposes of executive compensation comparison. Eleven of the eighteen companies included in the

Company's peer group are in the building products industry, while the remaining seven are either peers of those eleven peers

or in highly aligned products or sectors. The median revenue of the peer group is likewise aligned with the Company's

anticipated revenue. The Committee also considered the size of the peer group and determined that a robust peer group was

desirable to mitigate potential year-over-year volatility in data.

For 2025, the Committee used the following peer group for purposes of executive compensation comparison:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| American Woodmark Corporation (AMWD) | Mohawk Industries, Inc. (MHK) |
| A.O. Smith Corporation (AOS) | Newell Brands Inc. (NWL) |
| Allegion plc (ALLE) | Owens Corning (OC) |
| Fortune Brands Innovations, Inc. (FBIN) | Patrick Industries, Inc. (PATK) |
| Griffon Corporation (GFF) | Resideo Technologies, Inc. (REZI) |

| Martin Marietta Materials, Inc. (MLM) | Snap-on Incorporated (SNA) |
| Masco Corporation (MAS) | UFP Industries, Inc. (UFPI) |
| MasterBrand, Inc. (MBC) | Vulcan Materials Company (VMC) |

**2025 Say-On-Pay Advisory Vote** 

At our annual meeting of stockholders held in 2025, 95.03% of the votes cast on

our say-on-pay proposal approved the compensation we paid to our executive

officers. As a result of our strong stockholder support of our pay-for-performance

compensation structure, among other considerations, the Committee decided not

to implement any significant changes to our compensation programs in fiscal 2025.

**Section 2 – Compensation Program Design and Decisions** 

**Base Salary** 

We believe it is important to pay our executives a competitive base salary. Each NEO is party to an employment agreement

that provides for an annual base salary, which is subject to periodic review by the Committee. In establishing the initial base

salary, we considered a number of factors, including market data for similar positions, as well as the duties and responsibilities

of the position. NEOs do not receive automatic merit increases to their base salaries. Rather, the base salaries of our NEOs

are reviewed annually by the Committee to determine whether an adjustment is appropriate. In making decisions regarding

salary adjustments, the Committee considers numerous factors, including the NEO's performance, our financial results, the

**Annual Cash Incentives under the Management Incentive Plan ("MIP")** 

We believe it is important to motivate our NEOs to achieve performance goals by linking a portion of their annual cash

compensation to the achievement of our Board-approved operating plan. Toward that end, we provide an annual cash

incentive award opportunity to key members of management, including our NEOs, under the terms and conditions of the

Company's MIP. The Committee establishes the target bonus opportunities and the Company performance goals for the MIP

(as described in greater detail below) in February of each year based on the Board-approved operating budget, and then these

targets are communicated to the MIP participants.

Following the end of each fiscal year, the Committee reviews the Company's actual financial and non-financial results relative

to the established MIP performance goals and determines the level of performance achieved with respect to the Company

performance goals for all MIP participants. The Committee considers the level of achievement of the Company performance

goals as well as the achievement of the regional or individual performance goals applicable to each NEO. The Committee

approves actual cash incentive payments for each NEO following such determinations.

Employment agreements with our NEOs establish minimum target MIP opportunities, and the Committee has discretion to

assign target MIP opportunities above those levels. The Committee also establishes threshold and maximum MIP

opportunities for each NEO. MIP payments are made based upon actual performance in the range between threshold and

maximum achievement of performance goals. In addition, the following conditions apply:

• No payments under the MIP are made with respect to a particular performance goal if financial results are below the

threshold performance level for the applicable performance goal.

• No payments under the Regional Performance Metrics (as defined below) are made if performance under the Company

Performance Metrics (as defined below) are below threshold performance levels.

• Actual bonus payments under the MIP are subject to upward or downward adjustment at the discretion of the Committee

based upon its evaluation of an NEO's individual achievements or contributions to performance of the functions within

the individual's areas of responsibility.

• Adjustments are permitted as deemed appropriate by the Committee to account for unanticipated or other significant

events that warrant adjustment.

**Company Performance Metrics**

Pursuant to our MIP, the Committee established Company performance goals (the "Company Performance Metrics") based on

two financial measures under our 2025 operating plan (Adjusted EBITDA and Operating Cash Flow ("OCF")) and a corporate

scorecard with the following weightings:

![1](jeld-20260312_g83.gif)

For MIP purposes, the Committee uses Adjusted EBITDA as reported, excluding the impact of acquisitions and divestitures

during the plan year, as may be further adjusted for discrete items at the Committee's sole discretion. The Committee also

uses Operating Cash Flow as reported, as may be further adjusted for discrete items at the Committee's sole discretion in

accordance with the terms of the MIP. The corporate scorecard consists of safety, quality and delivery metrics designed to

reinforce a company-wide focus on improved service levels critical to the Company's short-term and long-term performance.

For 2025, the Company Performance Metrics apply to our executives with global functional responsibilities, including Messrs.

Christensen, Hayes, and Meier and Mses. Stoddard and Livingston.

**Regional Performance Metrics**

The Committee determined that regional performance goals ("Regional Performance Metrics") were appropriate for executives

responsible for operations in a specific region, including Mr. Vianna for 2025. For 2025, in addition to the overall Company

Performance Metric, the Committee established the Regional Performance Metrics based on two regional measurements

under our 2025 operating plan (Adjusted EBITDA and Operating Cash Flow ("OCF")) and a regional scorecard focused on

safety, quality and delivery metrics with the following weightings:

For MIP purposes, the Committee uses OCF as reported for the region, as may be further adjusted for discrete items at the

Committee's sole discretion in accordance with the terms of the MIP. The Committee also uses Adjusted EBITDA as reported

for the region, excluding the impact of acquisitions and divestitures during the plan year, as may be further adjusted for

discrete items at the Committee's sole discretion.

**2025 MIP Results** 

The 2025 MIP Company and Regional Performance Metrics established by the Committee, and applicable to our NEOs, are

(1)Scorecard consists of safety, quality and delivery metrics at the enterprise level and the North America and Europe operating segments with payout

percentages of 50%, 100% and 200% for threshold performance, target performance and maximum performance, respectively.

The results of the Company's 2025 financial performance were measured against these pre-established performance goals

that were set in February 2025 after the completion of the Company's annual operating plan and an examination of its

underlying markets, customers, strategic initiatives and general economic outlook. For 2025, the Company's Adjusted EBITDA

was $118 million and OCF was ($4.9) million. The corporate scorecard consists of safety, quality and delivery metrics designed

to reinforce a company-wide focus on improved service levels critical to the Company's short-term and long-term performance.

The Committee assessed progress in each of these areas and determined a target payout was earned for the scorecard for

2025. Based on these results, the Company Performance Metrics yielded a MIP payout of 42% of target. For North America,

the Company reported $99.5 million in Adjusted EBITDA and $108.2 million in OCF. For Europe, the Company reported €48.7

million in Adjusted EBITDA and €23.5 million in OCF. A target payout for the regional scorecard was earned by both regions.

Based on these results, the Regional Performance Metrics yielded a MIP payout of 40% of target for North America and 59%

for Europe.

The Committee awarded 2025 MIP bonuses to our NEOs as follows:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| NAME | PAYMENT AMOUNT | PERCENTAGE OF <br>TARGET<br>|

**Long-Term Incentive Plan** 

**OMNIBUS EQUITY PLAN**

In connection with our IPO in 2017, the Board adopted and our stockholders approved the 2017 Plan, which has been

amended from time to time and will terminate in January 2027. Equity awards granted in connection with and following our IPO

were made under the 2017 Plan. Under the 2017 Plan, the Committee has granted equity awards such as stock options and

restricted stock units ("RSUs") to eligible employees, and performance share units ("PSUs") to our senior leaders, including our

NEOs. The Committee's use of performance based, long-term equity awards is intended to encourage superior performance

and align executives' interests with those of stockholders, and it also takes into consideration competitive market data as well

as the incentive for long-term growth and value creation in the Company's overall pay-for-performance program. At the Annual

Meeting, we are asking stockholders to approve the 2026 Plan. For more information, refer to Proposal 4 in this Proxy

Statement.

**STOCK OPTIONS** 

The Committee has utilized stock options as a component of executive compensation because they have value only if the

Company's share price increases and, therefore, motivate our executives to drive sustained, long-term stockholder value

creation. The Board has adopted a form of option award agreement under the 2017 Plan that generally provides for awards to

vest ratably on each anniversary of the date of grant over the specified multi-year period (typically three years) following the

date of grant and to have a strike price equal to the fair market value on the date of grant. It also provides for post-termination

exercise periods; and for awards made after 2020, stock options continue to vest in the event of death or disability. In the case

of retirement, stock options awarded after 2023 are prorated for time actively employed. Upon a termination for "cause," all

options, vested or unvested, are immediately forfeited.

**RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS** 

The Committee uses time-vesting RSUs as a component of executive compensation to align further our executives' interests

with those of stockholders. Because these awards typically vest after a specified period following the date of grant, they also

incentivize our executives to remain in our employ. The Board has adopted a form of RSU award agreement under the 2017

Plan that generally provides for awards to vest ratably on each anniversary of the date of grant over a specified period

(typically three years) following the date of grant. All unvested RSUs continue to vest in the event of termination of employment

due to death or disability. In the case of retirement, unvested RSUs for awards granted after 2023 are prorated for the time

actively employed.

**PERFORMANCE SHARE UNITS** 

Beginning in 2018, the Committee introduced PSUs as a component of executive compensation to ensure our executives'

incentives are tied directly to key drivers of stockholder value growth. PSUs also play a role in executive retention, as an NEO

generally is required to remain employed through the applicable vesting date in order to receive the shares underlying the

PSUs. The Board has adopted a form of PSU award agreement under the 2017 Plan that generally provides for awards to cliff

vest after a specified period (typically three years) following the date of grant, subject to the executive's continued employment

through the vesting date (or the opportunity to earn a pro rata portion of the award in the event of termination due to death,

disability or retirement based upon actual performance). Participants will be eligible to earn a specified range (0-150% for

fiscal years 2023 and 2024) of the PSU target award based on our actual performance with respect to selected metrics for the

fiscal years specified in the grant. For PSU grants made in 2025, the potential payout range is 0-210% with the modifier for

total stockholder return ("TSR") relative to the Russell 3000 Index.

For the PSU awards granted in February 2023, the number of shares that vest is determined by performance against pre-set,

three-year performance targets for Return on Invested Capital ("ROIC") and TSR relative to the Russell 3000 Index, each

weighted at 50%, with ROIC targets of 8.4%, 9.4% and 10.4% for threshold, target and maximum performance, respectively,

and relative TSR targets of the 25th percentile, 50th percentile and 75th percentile for threshold, target and maximum

performance, respectively. The Committee has the discretion to adjust the performance metrics to account for unanticipated or

other significant events, including changes in the Company's structure. The Company's performance for the three-year period

was below threshold performance for ROIC and relative TSR. As the pre-established performance metrics for the three-year

performance period were not met, the PSU awards granted on February 14, 2023 did not vest. The target award and payout of

the 2023 PSU awards are set forth below.

**ANNUAL LONG-TERM INCENTIVE EQUITY AWARDS** 

The Committee uses a mix of long-term incentive equity award vehicles, together with other elements of our executive

compensation, to optimize the balance of long-term and short-term incentives and to avoid undue emphasis on any specific

element of the incentive compensation program. Annually, the Committee grants long-term incentive equity awards ("LTIP

Awards") to eligible employees and members of our executive team, including our NEOs. Through 2025, the Committee has

issued LTIP Awards in the form of a combination of PSUs, RSUs and stock options to continue a strong pay-for-performance

alignment of the Company's compensation program with long-term interests of stockholders. In 2026, the Committee plans to

grant a combination of PSUs and RSUs. In an effort to minimize the dilutive effect of the the 2017 Plan awards, in February

2026, all outstanding stock options granted to Messrs. Christensen, Hayes and Meier and Mses. Stoddard and Livingston were

amended to include a tandem stock appreciation right component which will be settled solely in cash upon exercise and the

PSUs granted in 2024 to Messrs. Christensen, Hayes and Meier and Mses. Stoddard and Livingston were amended to provide

that such PSUs, to the extent vested and earned, will be settled solely in cash.

The Committee awards equity based on a target value as a percentage of an executive's base salary. Prior to the annual grant,

the Committee sets a range of target equity values for our executives, including our NEOs. The Committee sets a target equity

value (not a range) for the roles of chief executive officer and chief financial officer. Using its reasoned business judgment, the

Committee determines the executive's final target equity value for the annual grant based on the executive's scope of

responsibility, individual evaluation of performance and potential, median market peer and compensation survey data provided

by the Company's compensation consultant and, in part, the recommendation of our CEO.

In February 2025, the Committee determined that the target equity value (based on the grant date fair value of the total award)

for our NEOs, except our CEO, should be issued using the following combination of awards: 33% stock options, 33% RSUs

and 34% PSUs. The combination of 2025 equity awards for our CEO is the following: 50% PSUs, 25% RSUs and 25% stock

options. Accordingly, the Committee approved 2025 LTIP Awards to our NEOs valued as set forth below.

(1)All stock options have a strike price of $9.05 (the closing price of our common stock on the date of grant), vest ratably on each of the first three anniversaries

of the date of grant (February 11, 2025) and expire ten years from the date of grant. In February 2026, all outstanding stock options granted to Messrs.

Christensen, Hayes and Meier and Mses. Stoddard and Livingston were amended to include a tandem stock appreciation right component which will be

settled solely in cash upon exercise. As a result, no shares will be issued pursuant to the exercise of these options.

(2)RSUs vest ratably on each of the first three anniversaries of the date of grant (February 11, 2025) subject to continued employment on each vesting date or as

otherwise provided in the award agreement.

(3)Value of PSUs issued at target. PSUs cliff vest in a range of 0-210% of target (inclusive of the 10% relative TSR modifier) on February 11, 2027, which is the

third anniversary of the date of grant subject to continued employment or as otherwise provided in the award agreement. The target value of PSUs does not

match the amounts in the grant date accounting value columns of the Summary Compensation Table and the Grant of Plan-Based Awards Table because the

grant date of those PSUs for SEC reporting purposes occurs when the performance goals are set. Since goals under our fiscal 2025-2027 PSUs are

established annually within the first quarter of each fiscal year, the amounts in the "Stock Awards" column in the Summary Compensation Table and the "Grant

Date Fair Value of Stock and Option Awards" column in the Grants of Plan-Based Awards Table include those fiscal 2025-2027 PSUs related to the

performance period for which the Committee has established performance goals (fiscal 2025 only).

(4)Mr. Vianna passed away in December 2025. His unvested equity awards will continue to vest in accordance with the terms of the respective award agreement.

In 2025, the Committee determined the 2025 PSUs for the three-year performance period including fiscal years 2025 through

2027 would be tied to performance against two financial metrics measured by three consecutive one-year periods, and could

be modified up or down based on the Company's three-year relative TSR performance against the Russell 3000 Index.

**Employee Benefits** 

Our NEOs generally participate in the same retirement program as other management employees assigned at their primary

work location. NEOs based in the United States participate in the Company's 401(k) Retirement Savings Plan (the "401(k)

Plan"), under which in 2025 the Company matched contributions up to 4% of the lesser of base salary and the annual statutory

maximum dollar amount.

Our NEOs are also entitled to vacation and holiday pay in accordance with the terms of their respective employment

agreements and otherwise on the same terms as other employees at their primary work location. In addition, our NEOs are

eligible to participate in our medical, dental and other insurance programs in accordance with the terms and provisions of

those programs in effect from time to time, and on substantially the same terms as those generally offered to other employees.

**Perquisites** 

Consistent with our performance-oriented culture, we generally provide limited perquisites to NEOs, as included under the "All

Other Compensation" column in the "Summary Compensation Table." Certain NEOs received allowances for moving and

relocation, as disclosed in the "Summary Compensation Table."

**Section 3 – Other Compensation Information** 

**Compensation Risk Assessment** 

The Compensation Committee meets at least quarterly to consider management's assessment of employee and compensation

risks, to monitor incentive and equity-based compensation plans and, at least annually, to review the Company's compensation

programs to confirm they are appropriately aligned with the Company's strategic objectives and do not incentivize unnecessary

or excessive risk-taking. Based on that review, the Committee has determined that no practices or policies are likely to lead to

excessive risk-taking or have a material adverse effect on the Company.

**Compensation Committee Report** 

The Compensation Committee has reviewed and discussed the above Compensation Discussion and Analysis. Based on its

review and discussion with management, the Compensation Committee recommended to our Board that the Compensation

Discussion and Analysis be included in this Proxy Statement.

(1)The amounts in this column represent the total number of options not vested as of December 31, 2025. The options generally vest one-third annually from

date of grant. In February 2026, all outstanding stock options granted to Messrs. Christensen, Hayes and Meier and Mses. Stoddard and Livingston were

amended to include a tandem stock appreciation right component which will be settled solely in cash upon exercise. As a result, no shares will be issued

pursuant to the exercise of these options.

(2)The amounts in this column represent the total number of RSUs not vested as of December 31, 2025. The RSUs generally vest one-third annually from the

date of grant. However, one of Mr. Hayes' 2023 RSU grants and one of Ms. Stoddard's 2023 RSU grants vested 50% on February 14, 2025 with the remaining

50% to vest on February 14, 2026.

(3)Based on the per share closing market price of our common stock on December 31, 2025 of $2.46.

(4)The amounts in this column represent the number of PSUs, which were not vested as of December 31, 2025, for the performance periods 2023 through 2025

(for awards granted in 2023), 2024 through 2026 (for awards granted in 2024) and 2025 through 2027 (for awards granted in 2025) based on the achievement

of threshold performance. See footnote 3 to Summary Compensation Table regarding PSUs granted in 2025. In February 2026, the PSUs granted in 2024 to

Messrs. Christensen, Hayes and Meier and Mses. Stoddard and Livingston were amended to provide that such PSUs, to the extent vested and earned, would

be settled solely in cash. As a result, no shares will be issued pursuant to those awards.

(5)Mr. Vianna passed away in December 2025. His unvested equity awards will continue to vest in accordance with the terms of their respective award

agreements.

(1)Represents the vesting of PSUs and RSUs.

(2)For PSUs, calculated by multiply the number of units vested by the closing price of our common stock on the grant date, as approved by the Compensation

Committee. For RSUs, calculated by multiplying the number of units vested by the closing price of our common stock on the vesting date.

**Employment Agreements** 

The Company entered into employment agreements (the "NEO Employment Agreements") with each of our NEOs. The NEO

Employment Agreements generally provide for indefinite employment terms that are terminable by either party as provided

therein and specify a minimum salary, target incentive compensation, as well as other benefits and perquisites. They also

contain restrictive covenants that, among other things, limit the executive's ability to engage in competitive activity with the

Company, or to solicit customers or employees of the Company, within a specified period following the individual's termination

of employment. The NEO Employment Agreements also provide for certain payments and benefits following certain

termination events, as described in greater detail below under the heading "Potential Payments upon Termination or Change in

Control."

(1)Executive contributions are reflected in the Salary column of the "Summary Compensation Table" as described above.

(2)Aggregate earnings are not reflected in the "Summary Compensation Table" for 2025 and were not reflected for prior years.

**Deferred Compensation Plan**

The JELD-WEN Deferred Compensation Plan (the "Deferred Compensation Plan"), effective April 1, 2022, as amended and

restated effective January 1, 2024, is an unfunded non-qualified deferred compensation plan that permits eligible executives

and directors to defer a portion of their compensation to a future time. Eligible employees may elect to defer up to 80% of their

base salary and up to 100% of their bonus, MIP, RSUs and PSUs. Eligible directors may defer up to 100% of their director fees

or RSUs under the Deferred Compensation Plan. A participant's contributions to the Deferred Compensation Plan are fully

vested (other than equity deferrals which remain subject to the vesting terms of the applicable equity award). Amounts

deferred under the Deferred Compensation Plan are invested in investment funds selected by the participant. Participants are

entitled to receive benefits in their accounts upon separation of service or upon a specified date, with cash deferrals payable

as a single lump sum or in up to ten annual installments, and equity deferrals payable as a single lump sum only. Although the

Company is permitted to make contributions to a participant's account, the Company has not elected to do so.

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

Each of our NEOs is entitled to certain payments and benefits following a termination of employment in certain circumstances.

These potential benefits are summarized below and reflect obligations pursuant to the NEO Employment Agreements in effect

on December 31, 2025.

**Termination for Cause of Voluntary Resignation Without Good Reason** 

Upon a termination by the Company for cause (as defined in the relevant agreement or as determined in accordance with the

applicable equity plan) or due to a voluntary resignation without good reason (as defined in the relevant agreement), no

severance benefits are payable to the NEO. The NEO would forfeit the right to receive an annual bonus under the MIP in the

year of termination but would be paid for any bonus earned in the prior fiscal year if such bonus had not yet been paid prior to

the date of termination.

Stock options, RSUs and PSUs are treated in accordance with the award agreements pursuant to which they were granted,

which typically provide that all unvested stock options, RSUs and PSUs are immediately forfeited, and vested stock options

remain exercisable for the 90-day period following termination (other than following a termination for cause, in which case

vested stock options are forfeited upon employment termination).

**Termination Due to Death or Disability or Retirement** 

Except as described below, upon a termination due to death or disability, the NEO will receive salary through the date of death

or disability, as well as a bonus for the year in which the termination occurs, based on the Company's actual performance, and

prorated for the number of calendar months during which the executive was employed prior to termination. Stock options,

RSUs and PSUs are treated in accordance with the award agreements pursuant to which they were granted, which typically

provide that all unvested stock options, RSUs and PSUs are immediately forfeited, except for such grants made between 2020

and 2023, which continue to vest in the event of death and disability and are prorated for time actively employed for retirement.

Stock options that are vested on the date of death, disability or retirement (which, generally, for grants through 2020 is

reaching age 65, for grants between 2020 and 2023 is reaching age 55 and having at least ten years of service with the

Company and for 2024 grants and afterwards, (i) 55 years of age plus ten years of service or (ii) 66 years of age plus five

years of service with the Company) remain exercisable until the earlier to occur of (x) the expiration of the twelve-month period

following the final vesting date and (y) the stock option expiration date.

Mr. Vianna passed away in December 2025. Pursuant to his employment agreement, Mr. Vianna was entitled to a bonus of

$373,446 for 2025 based on target performance. In addition, Mr. Vianna's equity awards are permitted to continue to vest in

accordance with the vesting schedule set forth in their respective award agreements.

**Termination Without Cause or Resignation for Good Reason**

**NOT IN CONNECTION WITH A CHANGE IN CONTROL** 

Under the terms of the NEO Employment Agreements, in the event that the NEO's employment is terminated by the Company

without cause or the NEO resigns for good reason (as such terms are defined in the NEO Employment Agreement), subject to

the NEO's execution and effectiveness of a general release of claims in our favor, the NEO will be entitled to receive: (i) an

amount equal to the sum of (x) the NEO's then-current base salary and (y) the NEO's target annual cash incentive bonus for

the year of termination, payable in twelve equal monthly installments following termination; (ii) a prorated annual cash incentive

bonus based on actual Company performance for the entire fiscal year in which such termination occurs, prorated for the

number of calendar months during which the executive was employed prior to termination (rounded up to the next whole

month), and paid at the time bonuses are generally paid to other executives; (iii) treatment of equity awards held by the NEO

pursuant to the terms of the applicable award agreement; (iv) if the NEO is participating in the Company's group health plan

immediately prior to the date of termination and elects to continue coverage, reimbursement of 12 months of COBRA

premiums following termination; and (v) outplacement services not to exceed a total value of $10,000. In addition, each NEO

will be bound by two-year post-termination non-competition and non-solicitation covenants.

For stock options granted on and prior to February 2, 2017, award agreements typically provided that upon termination without

cause or resignation for good reason, the number of stock options scheduled to vest on the next vesting date following

termination will accelerate and vest on the date of termination. For stock options granted after that date, award agreements

typically provide that any stock options not yet vested on the date of termination are forfeited. Award agreements typically

provide that vested options may be exercised during a period of 90 days following the date of termination without cause or

resignation for good reason.

For all currently outstanding RSUs and for all PSUs, the award agreements typically provide that any RSUs and PSUs not yet

vested on the date of termination are forfeited.

**IN CONNECTION WITH A CHANGE IN CONTROL** 

Under the terms of the NEO Employment Agreements for Messrs. Christensen, Hayes and Meier and Mses. Stoddard and

Livingston, in the event of termination of employment without cause or resignation for good reason, in either case occurring on

or after a "change in control" (as defined in the applicable NEO Employment Agreement), each of these NEOs will be entitled

to receive: (i) an amount equal to two times the sum of (x) the NEO's then-current base salary and (y) the NEO's average cash

incentive bonus for the three full fiscal years prior to the change in control event or the three full fiscal years prior to the year of

termination, if greater (the "CIC Severance"); (ii) a prorated annual cash incentive bonus based on the NEO's annual bonus

target amount for that fiscal year, prorated for the number of calendar months during which the executive was employed prior

to termination (rounded up to the next whole month) (the "CIC Prorated Bonus"); (iii) accelerated vesting of all time-based

equity awards held by the NEO; (iv) full acceleration of vesting of PSUs at target amounts prorated through the date of

termination (rounded up to the next full year); (v) if the NEO is participating in the Company's group health plan immediately

prior to the date of termination, payment of 24 months of COBRA premiums following termination; and (vi) outplacement

services not to exceed a total value of $10,000. The CIC Severance will be paid (A) if the termination occurs within two years

of the change in control, in a single lump sum within ten days following termination, and (B) if the termination occurs more than

two years following a change in control, in twelve equal monthly installments following termination. The CIC Prorated Bonus

will be payable (A) if the termination occurs within two years of the change in control, as soon as practicable following

termination, and (B) if the termination occurs more than two years following a change in control, at the time annual bonuses

are generally paid to other executives. In addition, each would be bound by two-year post-termination non-competition and

non-solicitation covenants.

**Estimated Potential Termination Payments and Benefits** 

The following table provides the estimated value of the payments and benefits that our NEOs (other than Mr. Vianna) would

have been provided under the employment agreements, letter agreements, and other management agreements and policies

described above that were in effect as of December 31, 2025 in connection with certain termination scenarios, assuming in

each case that such termination had occurred on December 31, 2025 (and, if applicable, assuming that a change in control

had occurred during 2025). The actual amounts that would be paid upon an NEO's termination of employment can be

determined only at the time of such event.

(1)None of the NEOs will receive any special benefits in the event of voluntary separation without good reason or termination for cause. Under standard plan

provisions, the NEOs will continue to be eligible for benefits under the Company's medical and dental plans until the last day of the month in which termination

occurs. The NEO would also receive pro-rata payment for bonus earned in the fiscal year prior to termination if that bonus has not been paid prior to the

termination date. Any bonus earned in the year of termination is forfeited.

(2)Amounts in this column represent the cash and benefits to be paid to the NEO in the event of termination by the Company without cause or resignation with

good reason (each as defined in the NEO's Employment Agreement). For all NEOs, the severance benefits represent (i) one year of base salary, (ii) one year's

target bonus, (iii) COBRA reimbursement for 12 months and (iv) accelerated vesting of one additional tranche of all unvested, pre-IPO and IPO grant stock

options. Each of these executives also is entitled to a prorated portion of their 2025 bonus and outplacement services not to exceed $10,000.

(3)Amounts in this column represent the bonus for the year of termination that each NEO would have received in the event of termination by death or disability.

(4)Amounts in this column represent the cash and benefits to be paid to the NEOs in the event of termination after a Change In Control (as defined in the NEO's

Employment Agreement). These amounts represent for Messrs. Christensen, Hayes and Meier and Mses. Stoddard and Livingston (i) two times the sum of (x)

the NEO's then-current base salary and (y) the NEO's average cash incentive bonus for the three full fiscal years prior to the change in control event

(assumed paid at target for each year for purposes of this calculation); (ii) a prorated annual cash incentive bonus paid at target; (iii) accelerated vesting of (a)

all time-based equity awards and (b) all PSUs at target amounts prorated through the date of termination; (iv) estimated payment for 24 months of COBRA

premiums; and (v) outplacement services not to exceed a total value of $10,000.

(1)The dollar amounts reported in these columns are the amounts of total compensation reported for William Christensen (First CEO), who served as our CEO in

December 2022, 2023, 2024 and 2025; Gary Michel (Second CEO), who served as our CEO in 2021 and 2022 until August 2022; and Kevin Lilly (Third

CEO), who served as our interim CEO from August 2022 until December 2022, as such amounts are shown in the "Total" column of the Summary

Compensation Table for each respective fiscal year. Refer to the CD&A in this Proxy Statement for more information, as well as the CD&A in our prior Proxy

Statements for compensation information for our former CEOs.

(2)The dollar amounts reported in these columns represent the amount of "compensation actually paid" to each of the CEOs (and, in the corresponding column,

for the other NEOs (excluding the CEOs)), as computed in accordance with Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K. The dollar amounts do not reflect the actual amount

of compensation earned by or paid to each of the CEOs (or, in the corresponding column, the other NEOs (excluding the CEOs)) during the applicable fiscal

year. In accordance with the requirements of Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K, and as described in the table below, the following equity award adjustments

(addition or subtraction from Summary Compensation Table total, as applicable) were made to each of the CEO's and each of the other NEO's (excluding the

CEOs) total compensation for each year to determine the compensation actually paid. The grant date fair value of equity awards represents the total of the

amounts reported in the "Stock Awards" and "Option Awards" columns, as applicable, in the Summary Compensation Table for the applicable fiscal year. To

calculate "compensation actually paid" for our CEOs and average of our other NEOs, the following applied: (i) measurement date equity fair values are

calculated with assumptions derived on a basis consistent with those used for grant date fair value purposes; (ii) restricted stock units are valued based on the

closing stock price on the relevant measurement date; (iii) PSUs granted in 2021, 2022, 2023 and 2024 are valued with an assumed payout factor consisting

of equally weighted performance targets of ROIC and TSR, consistent with the assumptions for ASC 718 purposes, and PSUs granted in 2025 are valued with

an assumed pay factor consisting of equally weighted performance targets of ROIC and Net Trade Sales with a relative TSR modifier consistent with the

assumptions for ASC 718 purposes; and (iv) stock options are valued using a Black-Scholes option pricing model at the relevant measurement date, using

assumptions consistent with those used for the grant date fair value purposes.

(3)The names of each of the other NEOs (excluding the CEOs) included for purposes of calculating the average amounts in each applicable year are as follows:

(i) Messrs. Linker, Guernsey, Craven and Castillo and Ms. Behnia in 2021; (ii) Messrs. Linker, Guernsey, Craven, Castillo and Krause and Mses. Albrecht and

Behnia in 2022; (iii) Messrs. Craven, Hayes, Leon and Lilly and Ms. Albrecht in 2023; (iv) Messrs. Hayes, Lilly and Valenti and Mses. Albrecht and Stoddard in

2024; and (v) Messrs. Hayes, Meier and Vianna and Mses. Stoddard and Livingston in 2025, as shown in the Summary Compensation Table in the Proxy

Statement for each respective fiscal year.

(4)For each respective fiscal year, represents the cumulative TSR of the Standard & Poor's 1500 Building Products Index.

(5)Represents Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations for 2021 through 2025. The Company divested its Australasia business in July 2023. See Appendix A

for a reconciliation of (loss) income from continuing operations, net of tax to Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations for 2021 through 2025, the most

directly comparable GAAP financial measure.

**Relationship between Pay and Performance**

As described in more detail in the CD&A, the Company's executive compensation program reflects a variable pay-for-

performance philosophy. While the Company utilizes multiple performance measures to align executive compensation with

Company performance, all of those Company measures are not presented in the Pay Versus Performance table. Moreover,

the Company generally seeks to incentivize long-term performance, and therefore does not specifically align the Company's

performance measures with compensation that is actually paid (as computed in accordance with Item 402(v) of Regulation S-

K) for a particular year. Below are graphs showing the relationship of "compensation actually paid" to our CEOs and the

average of our other NEOs in 2021 through 2025 to (i) our TSR and our peer group TSR, (ii) net income and (iii) Adjusted

EBITDA. The Company has determined that Adjusted EBITDA is the financial performance measure that, in the Company's

assessment, represents the most important performance measure (that is not otherwise required to be disclosed in the Pay

Versus Performance table) used by the Company to link compensation actually paid to the Company's NEOs, for the most

recently completed fiscal year, to Company performance.

**CEO Pay Ratio Disclosure** 

As required under the Dodd-Frank Act, we disclose annually the ratio of our median employee's annual total compensation to

the annual total compensation of our CEO. Our CEO pay ratio is a reasonable estimate calculated in a manner consistent with

SEC rules.

**IDENTIFYING THE MEDIAN EMPLOYEE** 

We identified a new "median employee" in 2025 given reductions in the Company's workforce since 2023 using a multistep

process. First, we compiled our active, global employee population. As permitted under the *de minimis* exception, we excluded

from the population employees in the following two jurisdictions: Estonia (557) and Czech Republic (136). Excluding those

employees, as of December 1, 2025, the Company had 13,840 full-time and part-time employees in 16 countries worldwide,

including 7,091 employees in the United States and 6,056 employees outside the United States. This total excludes

independent contractors and other individuals classified as non-employees in their respective jurisdictions based on our

employment and payroll tax records.

To identify the median employee from our identified employee population, we next compiled for each employee "total cash

compensation" consisting of (i) base pay (salary or gross wages for hourly employees), annualized for any permanent

employees hired during the year and for all employees through the end of the year; (ii) bonuses and cash incentives paid; and

(iii) cash commissions and similar payments. Compensation amounts were determined from our payroll systems in each

jurisdiction. Payments not made in US dollars were converted to US dollars at the prevailing exchange rates on December 1,

2025. Our median employee was determined as the individual who earned total cash compensation at the midpoint of our

global employee population. The SEC CEO pay ratio rules allow a company to use the same median employee for comparison

purposes for up to three years unless there has been a significant change in the company's employee population or

compensation arrangements.

**Calculating the 2025 CEO Pay Ratio**

To determine the CEO to median employee pay ratio, we calculated 2025 total compensation for our median employee

consistent with the methodology used to calculate 2025 total compensation of our CEO in the "Summary Compensation Table"

and divided it into the CEO's total compensation. Based on this calculation, for 2025, our CEO received total annual

compensation of $6,283,343 and our median employee received total annual compensation of $52,190 resulting in a CEO pay

ratio of approximately 120:1. The SEC rules for identifying the median of our employees and calculating the pay ratio allow

companies to use a variety of methodologies, to apply certain exclusions, and to make reasonable estimates and assumptions

that reflect a company's employee population and compensation practices. For that reason, the pay ratio reported by other

companies may not be comparable to the pay ratio reported above.

**Policies and Practices Related to the Grant of Certain Equity Awards Close in** 

**Time to the Release of Material Nonpublic Information** 

The Committee grants LTIP Awards to eligible employees and members of our executive team annually on a predetermined

schedule unless a hire or promotion occurs during the year. Further, subject to available shares, RSUs are granted to our

directors on the date of the Company's annual meeting of stockholders unless an appointment occurs during the year. We do

not grant equity awards in anticipation of the release of material nonpublic information that is likely to result in changes to the

price of our common stock, and do not time the public release of such information based on award grant dates. The Company

has not timed the disclosure of material nonpublic information for the purpose of affecting the value of executive

compensation.

During the last completed fiscal year, we have not made awards to any NEO during the period beginning four business days

before and ending one business day after the filing of a periodic report on Form 10-Q or Form 10-K or the filing or furnishing of

a Current Report on Form 8-K that discloses material nonpublic information.

**P R O P O S A L 2:** 

ADVISORY VOTE TO APPROVE

COMPENSATION OF NEOs

**The Board is requesting your advisory vote on our "say-on-pay" resolution. The** 

**affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast is required to approve this** 

**proposal on a non-binding, advisory basis.** 

The Board is committed to excellence in corporate governance and recognizes the interest our stockholders have in our

executive compensation program. As part of that commitment, and in accordance with the Exchange Act, our stockholders are

being asked to approve a nonbinding, advisory resolution on the compensation of our NEOs, as reported in this Proxy

Statement. As described in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, beginning on page [31](#i62c2a17f1c1b47c4856f56f7404b4493_41) of this Proxy Statement, we

believe that our executive compensation program effectively aligns the interests of our executive officers with those of our

stockholders by tying a significant portion of their compensation to JELD-WEN's performance and by providing a competitive

level of compensation needed to recruit, retain and motivate talented executives critical to JELD-WEN's long-term success.

We are asking our stockholders to vote FOR, on an advisory basis, the following "say on pay" resolution:

RESOLVED, that the compensation paid to the Company's named executive officers as disclosed pursuant to the

compensation disclosure rules of the SEC, including in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, the

compensation tables and narrative discussion, is hereby approved.

As an advisory vote, this proposal is not binding on the Company. However, the Compensation Committee and the Board

value the opinions expressed by the Company's stockholders on this issue and will consider the outcome of this vote when

making future compensation decisions for the NEOs. Our next advisory vote on our "say-on-pay" resolution will take place at

the annual meeting of stockholders held in 2027.

**Statement in Support** 

Through our ongoing stockholder engagement, we receive consistent feedback that our investors favor incentive

compensation arrangements tied to specific performance measures that drive long-term performance and value creation. In

addition, at our annual meeting of stockholders held in 2025, 95.03% of the votes cast on our say-on-pay proposal approved

the compensation we paid to our executive officers. As a result of this stockholder support of our pay-for-performance

compensation structure, among other considerations, the Committee continued to focus our compensation program to

incorporate performance elements directly linked to achievement of our long-term strategic goals.

Key features of our fiscal 2025 executive compensation program were:<br>• Approximately 34% of the annual long-term target equity opportunity for our NEOs <br>(approximately 50% for our CEO) was delivered in the form of a performance-<br>based stock award with payouts based on achievement against pre-established <br>strategic performance metrics.<br>•Metrics for our performance-based stock awards were designed to align with our <br>key strategic initiatives that drive long-term stockholder value.<br>• Our performance-based stock awards included a relative total stockholder return <br>multiplier, to incentivize significant positive outperformance, thereby strengthening <br>the alignment of the interests of our executive officers with the interests of our <br>long-term stockholders.<br>

(1)Audit fees consist of fees and expenses billed or to be billed by PwC associated with the annual audit of our consolidated financial statements, the review of

our periodic reports, accounting consultations and audits of statutory filings for certain foreign subsidiaries.

**Audit Committee Pre-Approval of Audit and Non-Audit Related Services of** 

**Independent Auditor** 

The Audit Committee has adopted a Policy for Pre-Approval of Independent Auditor Services (the "Pre-Approval Policy")

outlining the scope of services that PwC may provide to the Company. The Pre-Approval Policy sets forth guidelines and

procedures the Company must follow when retaining PwC to perform audit, audit-related, tax and other services. The Pre-

Approval Policy also specifies certain non-audit services that may not be performed by PwC under any circumstances.

Pursuant to these guidelines, the Audit Committee approves fee thresholds annually for each of these categories, and services

within these thresholds are deemed pre-approved. The Audit Committee has delegated authority to the Chair of the Audit

Committee to pre-approve permitted audit and non-audit services between regularly scheduled quarterly Audit Committee

meetings, provided that such pre-approvals are presented to the Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting. All fees

reported above were approved pursuant to the Pre-Approval Policy. The services provided by our independent auditor and

related fees are discussed with the Audit Committee, and the Pre-Approval Policy is evaluated and updated periodically by the

Audit Committee.

**Report of the Audit Committee of the Board** 

The Audit Committee operates under a written charter adopted by the Board. The charter is available under the Governance

section on the Company's website at investors.jeld-wen.com.

The Audit Committee is responsible for the oversight of the integrity of the Company's consolidated financial statements, the

Company's system of internal controls over financial reporting, financial risk management, the qualifications and independence

of the Company's independent auditor, the performance of the Company's internal auditors and independent auditor, and the

Company's compliance with legal and regulatory requirements. Subject to ratification by the stockholders, the Audit Committee

has the sole authority and responsibility to select, determine the compensation of, oversee, evaluate and, when appropriate,

replace the Company's independent auditor.

The Audit Committee serves in an oversight capacity and is not part of the Company's managerial or operational decision-

making process. Management is responsible for the financial reporting process, including the Company's system of internal

controls, for the preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted

in the United States and for the report on the Company's internal control over financial reporting. The Company's independent

accounting principles and effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. PwC was the Company's

independent auditor in 2025. The Audit Committee's responsibility is to oversee the financial reporting process and to review

and discuss management's report on the Company's internal controls over financial reporting. The Audit Committee relies,

without independent verification, on the information provided to it and on the representations made by management, the

internal auditors and the independent auditor.

During 2025, the Audit Committee, among other things:

• Reviewed and discussed the Company's quarterly earnings releases, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Annual Report on

Form 10-K, including the consolidated financial statements;

• Reviewed and discussed the Company's policies and procedures for financial risk assessment, financial risk management and

the major financial risk exposures of the Company and its business units, as appropriate;

• Reviewed and discussed the annual plan and the scope of work of the internal auditors for 2025 and summaries of the

significant reports to management by the internal auditors;

• Reviewed and discussed with management the plans and progress against those plans for remediating any significant

deficiencies in internal controls;

• Reviewed and discussed with management policies with respect to risk assessment and risk management, including the

Company's enterprise risk management program;

• Provided input to the Compensation Committee regarding performance of key finance, internal control and risk management

personnel;

• Reviewed and discussed with management their reports on the Company's policies regarding applicable legal and regulatory

requirements;

• Reviewed and approved the Audit Committee's charter; and

• Met regularly with the Chief Financial Officer, Chief Accounting Officer, General Counsel, Chief Compliance Officer, the

independent auditor and the internal auditors in separate executive sessions.

The Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed with management, the internal auditors and the independent auditor the

audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025 and the critical accounting policies that are

set forth in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K.

The Audit Committee discussed with PwC the matters required to be discussed by the applicable requirements of the Public

Company Accounting Oversight Board (the "PCAOB") and the SEC, including, among other things, matters related to the

conduct of the audit of the Company's consolidated financial statements and the matters required to be discussed by Auditing

Standard No. 1301 "Communications with Audit Committees," as adopted by the PCAOB. This review included a discussion

with management and the independent auditor of the quality (not merely the acceptability) of the Company's accounting

principles, the reasonableness of significant estimates and judgments, and the disclosures in the Company's consolidated

financial statements, including the disclosures related to critical accounting policies.

PwC also provided to the Audit Committee the written disclosures and the letter required by applicable requirements of the

PCAOB regarding PwC's communications with the Audit Committee concerning independence, and represented that it is

independent from the Company. The Audit Committee discussed with PwC its independence from the Company and

considered whether services it provided to the Company beyond those rendered in connection with its audit of the Company's

annual consolidated financial statements included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K and reviews of the Company's interim

condensed consolidated financial statements included in its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q were compatible with maintaining

its independence. The Audit Committee also reviewed and pre-approved, among other things, the audit, audit-related, tax and

other services performed by the independent auditor. The Audit Committee received regular updates on the amount of fees

and scope of audit, audit-related, tax and other services provided.

Based on the Audit Committee's review and these meetings, discussions and reports discussed above, and subject to the

limitations on its role and responsibilities referred to above and in the Audit Committee charter, the Audit Committee

recommended to the Board that the Company's audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31,

2025 be included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for filing with the SEC. The Audit Committee also selected

PwC as the Company's independent auditor for the year ending December 31, 2026, which it believes is in the best interest of

the Company and its stockholders, and is presenting that selection to stockholders for ratification at the meeting.

**P R O P O S A L 3**:

RATIFICATION OF SELECTION OF

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR FOR 2026

**The Audit Committee has selected PwC as JELD-WEN's independent auditor** 

**for 2026. As a matter of good corporate governance and because the Board** 

**considers the selection of the independent auditor to be an important matter** 

**of stockholder concern, the Board asks that stockholders ratify the selection** 

**of PwC as the Company's independent auditor. The affirmative vote of a** 

**majority of the votes cast is required to approve this proposal.** 

The Audit Committee is directly responsible for the appointment, compensation, retention and oversight of the independent

auditor retained to audit JELD-WEN's financial statements and internal controls over financial reporting. The Committee

conducts a comprehensive annual evaluation of the independent auditor's qualifications, performance and independence. The

Committee considers whether the independent auditor should be rotated and considers the advisability and potential impact of

selecting a different independent auditor. In evaluating and selecting the Company's independent auditor, the Audit Committee

considers, among other things, historical and recent performance of the current independent audit firm, an analysis of known

significant legal or regulatory proceedings related to the firm, external data on audit quality and performance, including recent

PCAOB reports, industry experience, audit fee revenues, firm capabilities and audit approach, and the independence and

tenure of the audit firm.

The Audit Committee selected, and the Board ratified the selection of, PwC to serve as our independent auditor for 2026. PwC

has been JELD-WEN's auditor since 2000.

In accordance with SEC rules and PwC policies, audit partners are subject to rotation requirements to limit the number of

consecutive years an individual partner may provide audit services to our company. For lead and concurring review audit

partners, the maximum number of consecutive years of service in that capacity is five years. The process for selection of the

lead audit partner under this rotation policy involves a meeting between the Chair of the Audit Committee and the candidate for

the role, as well as discussion by the full Audit Committee and with management. Due to the rotation requirements, JELD-

WEN engaged a new audit partner at PwC in 2023.

The Audit Committee and the Board believe that the continued retention of PwC as our independent auditor is in the best

interests of JELD-WEN and our stockholders, and we are asking our stockholders to ratify the selection of PwC as our

independent auditor for 2026. Although ratification is not required by our Bylaws or otherwise, the Board is submitting the

selection of PwC to our stockholders for ratification because we value our stockholders' views on JELD-WEN's independent

auditor and as a matter of good corporate practice. In the event that our stockholders fail to ratify the selection, it will be

considered a recommendation to the Board and the Audit Committee to consider the selection of a different firm. Even if the

selection is ratified, the Audit Committee may in its discretion select a different independent auditor at any time during the year

if it determines that such a change would be in the best interests of JELD-WEN and our stockholders.

We expect representatives of PwC to attend the Annual Meeting and be available to answer questions. They also will have the

opportunity to make a statement if they desire to do so.

**P R O P O S A L 4**:

APPROVAL OF THE JELD-WEN HOLDING,

INC. 2026 OMNIBUS EQUITY PLAN

**The Board recommends approval of the 2026 Plan. The affirmative vote of a** 

**majority of the votes cast is required to approve this proposal.** 

At the Annual Meeting, stockholders will be asked to approve the JELD-WEN Holding, Inc. 2026 Omnibus Equity Plan (the

"2026 Plan"). The Compensation Committee and the Board of Directors have approved the adoption of the 2026 Plan, subject

to stockholder approval. If our stockholders approve the 2026 Plan, it will become effective on April 22, 2026 (the "Effective

Date"), replacing our current long-term incentive plan, the 2017 Plan, pursuant to which no awards may be granted after

January 20, 2027. If approved, the 2026 Plan will serve as the sole equity incentive compensation plan under which future

awards may be granted.

The material features of the 2026 Plan are summarized below. This summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full

text of the 2026 Plan, a copy of which is attached to this Proxy Statement as Appendix B. We will promptly provide, upon

request and without charge, a copy of the full text of the 2026 Plan to each person to whom a copy of this Proxy Statement is

delivered. Requests should be directed to our Corporate Secretary at 2645 Silver Crescent Drive, Charlotte, North Carolina

28273. An electronic copy of the 2026 Plan is also available free of charge as Appendix B to the electronic version of this

Proxy Statement on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov. Stockholders should refer to the 2026 Plan for more complete and

detailed information about the 2026 Plan.

Stockholder approval of the 2026 Plan is required, among other things, in order to comply with applicable NYSE rules and tax

regulations related to the grant of incentive stock options.

As of February 27, 2026, only approximately 2,730,921 shares were available for grant under the 2017 Plan. Without approval

of the 2026 Plan, the Company will have insufficient shares to make our annual equity awards in 2026 and thereafter. The

Compensation Committee believes that the approval of the 2026 Plan is important to our continued success. Approval of the

2026 Plan should provide us with the flexibility and resources we need to use equity compensation and other incentive awards

to continue to attract, retain, incentivize and motivate talented employees, directors and consultants who are important to our

long-term growth and success. Approximately 55% of the shares used in our annual grants for 2025 were awarded to non-

NEO employees. The Board believes that our equity compensation program, as implemented under the 2017 Plan and

furthered under the 2026 Plan, positions us to remain competitive with comparable companies in our industry or with whom we

otherwise compete for talent. The Board also believes that the 2026 Plan will incentivize eligible participants to achieve our

business objectives and build stockholder value. In these ways, the 2026 Plan is intended to enhance the alignment of the

interests of our employees, directors and consultants with those of our stockholders.

If our stockholders do not approve the 2026 Plan, the Board and the Compensation Committee will reevaluate our

compensation alternatives, given that no further awards may be granted under the 2017 Plan after January 20, 2027 and that

we will have insufficient shares to grant annual equity awards in 2026 and thereafter.

**"Best Practices" Integrated Into the Company's Equity Compensation Program** 

**and the 2026 Plan**

Our compensation practices and the 2026 Plan include a number of features that the Board and Compensation Committee

believe reflect responsible compensation and governance practices and promote the interests of our stockholders, including

the following:

• ***Prudent Share Request; No Evergreen Provision.*** Under the terms of the 2026 Plan, no more than 3,000,000

shares of common stock will be authorized for issuance under the 2026 Plan (subject to adjustment for anti-dilution

purposes as provided in the 2026 Plan). The 2026 Plan does not include an evergreen feature providing for annual

share pool replenishments, thus assuring that stockholders must approve any increases in the plan share pool. As of

February 27, 2026, approximately 2,730,921 shares were available for grant under the 2017 Plan. These shares will

not be rolled into the 2026 Plan. We are committed to the efficient use of equity awards and are mindful of ensuring

that our equity compensation program does not overly dilute the holdings of existing stockholders. In February 2026,

in an effort to minimize the dilutive effect of the 2017 Plan awards, we amended options for 942,763 shares and PSU

awards for 201,603 shares, for a total of 1,144,366 shares, so that these awards may only be settled in cash, and no

shares will be issuable pursuant to these awards.

• ***Limitation on Participant Awards.*** Like the 2017 Plan, the 2026 Plan provides that the aggregate number of shares

that may be issued pursuant to awards under the plan in any calendar year may not exceed 2,000,000 shares to any

eligible individual who is an employee or consultant (subject to adjustment as provided in the 2026 Plan). In addition,

the 2026 Plan provides that the maximum number of shares subject to awards granted during any calendar year to a

non-employee director, together with any cash fees paid and the value of any cash-denominated awards granted

during such calendar year for service as a non-employee director, may not exceed $900,000 in total value (calculating

the value of awards based on the fair market value per share on the grant date, and subject to adjustment as

provided in the 2026 Plan).

• ***No Stock Option or Stock Appreciation Right ("SAR") Repricing Without Stockholder Approval.*** The 2026

Plan, like the 2017 Plan, prohibits, without stockholder approval, (i) making any adjustment (other than in connection

with an adjustment event, a corporate transaction, a change in control or other similar transaction where an

adjustment is permitted or required under the terms of the plan) or amendment that reduces the option price of an

option or base price of a stock appreciation right, whether through amendment, cancellation or replacement grants or

other means, (ii) canceling for cash, equity awards, shares of common stock or other consideration any option for

which the option price is greater than the then fair market value of a share or stock appreciation right for which the

base price is greater than the then fair market value of a share or (iii) taking other action with respect to options or

stock appreciation rights that would be treated as a repricing under the rules of the principal stock exchange rules on

which the shares are listed.

• ***Minimum Vesting Requirements.*** The 2026 Plan imposes minimum vesting periods of at least one year subject to

certain additional provisions as described in the 2026 Plan. Our historical practice has been to impose multi-year

award vesting periods (typically, three years).

• ***Prudent Change in Control Definition.*** As described in more detail below under "Summary of 2026 Plan – Change

in Control," the 2026 Plan includes a prudent change in control definition, such as requiring a change in beneficial

ownership of 50% or more of our voting stock and consummation (rather than stockholder approval) of a merger or

other transaction in order for a "change in control" to be deemed to have occurred.

• ***Conservative Share Recycling Provisions.*** The 2026 Plan imposes conservative share counting and share

recycling provisions. The 2026 Plan provides that the following shares will not become available for issuance in

connection with future awards granted under the plan: (i) shares withheld from an award or delivered by a participant

to satisfy tax withholding obligations for an award; (ii) shares not issued or delivered as a result of the net settlement

of an outstanding award; (iii) shares withheld or delivered to pay the exercise price related to an option or SAR

granted under the 2026 Plan; and (v) shares repurchased on the open market with the proceeds of the exercise price

of an option.

• ***No Discounted Stock Options or SARs and Limit on Option and SAR Terms.*** The 2026 Plan requires that stock

options and SARs have an exercise price that is no less than 100% of the fair market value of our common stock on

the date of grant, consistent with our current practices under the 2017 Plan. In addition, the term of an option or SAR

is limited to no more than 10 years.

• ***No Grants of "Reload" Awards.*** The 2026 Plan does not provide for "reload" awards (the automatic substitution of a

new award of like kind and amount upon the exercise of a previously granted award).

• ***Stock Ownership Guidelines.*** Our stock ownership guidelines require that our directors, executive officers and

certain other senior executives maintain minimum stock ownership and comply with certain equity retention

requirements, and will apply to shares acquired by such persons under the 2026 Plan.

• ***Forfeiture and Recoupment Policies.*** The 2026 Plan authorizes the Compensation Committee to require forfeiture

and/or recoupment of a participant's plan benefits if the participant engages in certain types of detrimental conduct

and to require that a participant be subject to our compensation recovery policies or similar policies that are

applicable to the participant or that are imposed under applicable laws. Participants who are executive officers or

employees will also be subject to the Clawback Policy, and participants may also be subject to any other applicable

compensation recovery policy or similar policies adopted by the Company from time to time or imposed under award

agreements or applicable laws. The Clawback Policy provides for the recovery of any cash or equity incentive-based

compensation that is granted, earned or vested in the event of a restatement of our financial statements or specific

acts of improper conduct, such as fraud, willful misconduct and violations of our Code of Business Conduct.

• ***Independent Compensation Committee Administration.*** Like the 2017 Plan, the 2026 Plan is administered by the

Compensation Committee. All members of the Compensation Committee are non-management directors who are

"independent" under applicable NYSE listing standards and SEC rules and regulations. In addition, each

Compensation Committee member qualifies as a "non-employee director" as defined in Rule 16b-3 under the

Exchange Act.

• ***No Dividends or Dividend Equivalent Rights on Unearned Performance Awards.*** Dividends and dividend

equivalents on awards (other than options or SARs) issued under the 2026 Plan may only be paid if and to the extent

the award has vested or been earned; no dividends may be paid on options or SARs.

• ***Limits on Transferability of Awards.*** The 2026 Plan does not permit awards to be transferred for value or other

consideration.

• ***Prohibition Against Hedging and Pledging.*** Our Securities Trading and Disclosure Policy prohibits hedging and

pledging of our securities by directors, executive officers and employees designated under the policy.

• ***Reasonable Plan Duration.*** The 2026 Plan is limited to a 10-year term and no awards may be granted under the

plan after April 22, 2036.

Approval of the 2026 Plan will position us to continue and expand these "best practices."

**Summary of the 2026 Plan** 

***Purpose.*** The purpose of the 2026 Plan is to assist the Company with attracting, retaining, incentivizing and motivating

officers, employees, non-employee directors and consultants of the Company, its subsidiaries and affiliates ("eligible

individuals") and to promote the success of the Company's business by providing participating individuals with a proprietary

interest in the performance of the Company. The Company believes that this incentive program will cause participating officers,

employees, non-employee directors and consultants to increase their interest in the welfare of the Company and to align their

interests with those of the stockholders of the Company.

***Committee Authorization.*** The Compensation Committee is authorized to administer the Plan, including but not limited to the

authority to grant awards and to designate the eligible individuals who will be granted awards, the types of awards, the number

of shares or value underlying such awards and to determine the terms and conditions of such awards. The Compensation

Committee may accelerate the vesting or lapsing of restrictions of any award in the event of death or disability, or, to the extent

provided under the 2026 Plan or an award agreement, a Change in Control or Corporate Transaction (each as defined below),

and make any amendment or modification to any award agreement consistent with the terms of the 2026 Plan. The

Compensation Committee also has authority to interpret, construe and amend any provision of the 2026 Plan, any award

agreement and the terms of any award granted thereunder. In certain circumstances, the Board or the Committee may

delegate authority (within specified parameters) to one or more officers to grant awards, and to make other determinations

under the 2026 Plan with respect to such awards to participants who are not directors or officers subject to Section 16 under

the Exchange Act. The Board may exercise the authority of the Compensation Committee and, in such event, references to the

Compensation Committee include the Board.

As of December 31, 2025, approximately 125 employees (including our officers) and nine non-employee directors were eligible

to be selected to participate in the 2026 Plan.

***Shares Available.*** The maximum number of shares of common stock that we may issue or deliver pursuant to awards granted

under the 2026 Plan shall not exceed 3,000,000 shares (subject to adjustment for anti-dilution purposes as provided in the

2026 Plan), all of which we may issue pursuant to incentive stock options under the 2026 Plan (subject to anti-dilution

adjustments as described in the 2026 Plan).

For purposes of determining the number of shares of common stock to be counted against the maximum share limits

described above, each share of common stock subject to an award will be counted against the limit as one (1) share. In

addition, the following shares will be counted against the limits described above and will not be available for re-issuance: (i)

shares withheld or delivered by a participant to satisfy tax withholding requirements for an award; (ii) shares not issued or

delivered as a result of the net settlement of an outstanding award; (iii) shares withheld or delivered to pay the exercise price

related to an outstanding option or SAR; and (iv) shares repurchased on the open market with the proceeds of the exercise

price of an option.

In calculating the 2026 Plan share limitations described above, the following shares will not be included: (i) shares subject to

an award (or any portion of an award) that is canceled, terminates, expires, is forfeited or lapses for any reason; (ii) awards

settled in cash; (iii) dividends, including dividends paid in shares; and (iv) any shares subject to an award other than an option

or SAR that are not issued for any reason, including by reason of failure to achieve maximum performance goals.

Shares issued under the 2026 Plan through the settlement, assumption or substitution of outstanding awards granted by

another entity or obligations to grant future awards as a condition of or in connection with a merger, acquisition or similar

transaction involving the Company acquiring another entity will not reduce the maximum number of shares available for

delivery under the 2026 Plan. Available shares under a stockholder approved plan of an acquired company (as appropriately

adjusted to reflect the transaction) may be used for awards under the 2026 Plan and will not reduce the maximum number of

shares available under the 2026 Plan, subject to applicable stock exchange listing requirements.

***Background for Shares Authorized for Issuance Under the 2026 Plan.*** As discussed further below, as of February 27,

2026, approximately 2,730,921 shares of our common stock remained available for grant under the 2017 Plan and 4,339,516

shares of our common stock, assuming a maximum payout under outstanding PSU awards, were subject to outstanding

awards.

In setting the number of shares of common stock available for issuance under the 2026 Plan, the Board and Compensation

Committee considered a number of factors, some of which are discussed further below, including:

**•Shares available under the 2017 Plan and total outstanding equity-based awards and how long the shares** 

**available are expected to last;**

**•Historical equity award granting practices, including our three-year average share usage rate (commonly** 

**referred to as "run rate"); and**

**•Potential dilution and overhang.**

***Individual Limits.*** Awards granted under the 2026 Plan are subject to certain participant limitations. The aggregate number of

shares that may be issued pursuant to awards granted under the 2026 Plan in any calendar year may not exceed 2,000,000

shares in the case of an eligible individual who is an employee or consultant (subject to adjustment as provided in the 2026

Plan). With respect to non-employee directors, the maximum number of shares that may be subject to awards granted to any

non-employee director in any calendar year, taken together with any cash fees paid and the value of any cash-denominated

awards granted during such calendar year to such non-employee director in respect of service as a member of the Board, shall

not exceed $900,000 in total value (calculating the value of any such awards settled in shares based on the fair market value

per share on the grant date of such an award, and subject to adjustment as provided in the 2026 Plan).

The participant award limitations and the terms of awards are subject to adjustment in the event of a change in the outstanding

shares of our common stock (due to a merger, change in control, consolidation, recapitalization, stock split, stock dividend or

similar transaction or event) or as otherwise provided in the 2026 Plan.

***Awards.*** Under the 2026 Plan, the Compensation Committee may grant stock options (both non-qualified and "incentive stock

options" within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code), restricted stock, RSUs, stock appreciation rights, performance

awards (including PSUs and performance units), dividend equivalent rights and share awards with respect to shares of the

Company. Each award agreement will contain such restrictions, terms and conditions as the Compensation Committee may, in

its discretion, determine.

***Vesting.*** Under the 2026 Plan, the Compensation Committee will determine and set forth in the applicable award agreement

the time or times at which, and/or the conditions required for, an award to vest, be earned, become exercisable and/or have

restrictions lapse. Notwithstanding the foregoing, awards granted under the 2026 Plan will generally be subject to a minimum

vesting (or earning) period of one year (with no installment vesting during such first year). However, the Compensation

Committee may provide for (i) the acceleration of vesting and/or exercisability of any award in its discretion in cases of death

or disability or, to the extent provided under the 2026 Plan or an award agreement, a Change in Control or Corporate

Transaction; (ii) the grant of an award without a minimum vesting period or with a shorter minimum vesting period, but only

with respect to awards for no more than an aggregate of five percent of the total number of authorized shares of common

stock under the 2026 Plan; and (iii) the grant of (A) awards to participants that have different vesting terms in the case of

awards that are substituted for other equity awards in connection with mergers, consolidations or other similar transactions or

(B) awards in exchange for foregone cash compensation. Our historical practice has been to impose multi-year award vesting

periods (typically, three years) for our employees, although the Compensation Committee has discretion to modify vesting

schedules, subject to 2026 Plan terms.

***Stock Options.*** The option price will be determined by the Compensation Committee and set forth in the award agreement.

The exercise price per share under each option will not be less than the greater of par value per share or 100% of the fair

market value of a share on the date the option is granted (110% in the case of an incentive stock option granted to a ten-

percent stockholder). An incentive stock option will not be exercisable after the expiration of ten (10) years from the date it is

granted (five (5) years in the case of an incentive stock option granted to a ten-percent stockholder) and a non-qualified stock

option will not be exercisable after the expiration of ten (10) years from the date it is granted. All of the shares authorized under

the 2026 Plan may be (but are not required to be) issued as incentive stock options.

***Stock Appreciation Rights.*** The Compensation Committee will determine and set forth in the applicable award agreement

the time or times at which an SAR will become vested and exercisable but in no event will any SAR have a term of greater

than ten (10) years. Upon exercise of an SAR, the participant will be entitled to receive an amount determined by multiplying (i)

the excess of the fair market value of a share on the last business day preceding the date of exercise of such SAR over the fair

market value of a share on the date the SAR was granted by (ii) the number of shares as to which the SAR is being exercised.

Payment may be made in the discretion of the Compensation Committee in whole shares having an aggregate fair market

value equal to the SAR payment amount, in cash or in a combination of cash and shares.

***Dividend Equivalent Rights.*** The Compensation Committee may provide that awards granted under the 2026 Plan (other

than options and SARs) earn dividends or dividend equivalent rights ("dividend equivalents"). However, dividends and dividend

equivalents (whether paid in cash or shares of common stock), if any, on unearned or unvested awards may not be paid (even

if accrued) unless and until the underlying award (or relevant portion thereof) has vested and/or been earned, and such

dividends and dividend equivalents will be forfeited to the extent the underlying award is forfeited. No dividends or dividend

equivalents may be paid on options or SARs.

***Share Awards.*** Awards of shares may be made as additional compensation for services rendered by the eligible individual or

may be in lieu of cash or other compensation to which the eligible individual is entitled from the Company.

***Restricted Stock.*** Each award agreement will specify the number of shares of restricted stock to which it relates, the

conditions which must be satisfied in order for the restrictions on transferability to lapse and the circumstances under which the

award will be forfeited. Restricted stock awards are settled in shares of common stock.

***Restricted Stock Units.*** Each RSU represents the right of the participant to receive one share, together, if applicable, with

such dividends as may have accrued with respect to such share from the time of the grant of the award until the time of vesting

(and subject to forfeiture on the same terms as applicable to the underlying RSUs), provided that the Compensation

Committee may determine that a RSU will be settled in cash or a combination of cash and shares.

***Performance Share Units.*** PSUs are denominated in shares and each award agreement will specify the number of PSUs to

which the award relates and the performance objectives and other conditions which must be satisfied in order for the PSUs to

vest and be earned. Payments may be made entirely in shares valued at their fair market value, entirely in cash or in such

combination of shares and cash as the Compensation Committee in its discretion will determine.

***Performance Units.*** Each Performance Unit represents a right to receive shares, a cash payment or a combination of shares

and cash, which has an initial value determined in an amount (which may be denominated in a cash amount) established by

the Compensation Committee at the time of grant. Each award agreement will specify the number of performance units to

which the award relates and the performance objectives and other conditions which must be satisfied in order for the award to

vest and be earned. Payments may be made entirely in shares valued at their fair market value, entirely in cash or in such

combination of shares and cash as the Compensation Committee in its discretion will determine.

***Change in Control.*** Generally, a participant's award agreement will provide specific terms, if any, applicable to that award in

the event of a Change in Control of the Company (as defined below). The 2026 Plan does not provide for automatic

acceleration upon a Change in Control. For purposes of the 2026 Plan, "Change in Control" means the occurrence of any of

the following events with respect to the Company: (i) any person (other than directly from the Company) first acquires

securities of the Company representing fifty percent or more of the combined voting power of the Company's then outstanding

voting securities, other than an acquisition by certain employee benefit plans, the Company or a related entity, or any person in

connection with a non-control transaction; (ii) a majority of the members of the board of directors is replaced by directors

whose appointment or election is not endorsed by a majority of the members of the board of directors serving immediately

prior to such appointment or election; (iii) any merger, consolidation or reorganization, other than a non-control transaction; (iv)

a complete liquidation or dissolution or (v) sale or disposition of all or substantially all of the assets, other than a transfer to a

related entity or the distribution of a related entity's stock to the Company's stockholders. A "non-control transaction" generally

includes any transaction in which (i) stockholders immediately before such transaction continue to own at least a majority of

the combined voting power of such resulting entity following the transaction; (ii) a majority of the members of the board of

directors immediately before such transaction continue to constitute at least a majority of the board of the surviving entity

following such transaction or (iii) with certain exceptions, no person other than any person who had beneficial ownership of

more than fifty percent of the combined voting power of the Company's then outstanding voting securities immediately prior to

such transaction has beneficial ownership of more than fifty percent of the combined voting power of the surviving entity's

outstanding voting securities immediately after such transaction.

***Adjustments for Corporate Transactions.*** Unless otherwise provided in an award agreement, in connection with a merger,

consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization or other similar change in the capital stock of the Company, a liquidation or

dissolution of the Company or the sale by the Company of a subsidiary or business unit (each a "Corporate Transaction"),

awards shall either: (i) continue following such Corporate Transaction, which may include, in the discretion of the

Compensation Committee or the parties to the Corporate Transaction, the assumption, continuation or substitution of the

awards, in each case with appropriate adjustments to the number, kind of shares, vesting conditions and exercise prices of the

awards; or (ii) terminate.

The 2026 Plan also includes provisions that require or permit the Compensation Committee to make certain adjustments to (i)

the maximum number and kind of shares of stock or other securities or other equity interests as to which awards may be

granted under the 2026 Plan, (ii) the maximum number and class of shares or other stock or securities that may be issued

upon exercise of incentive stock options, (iii) the number and kind of shares or other securities covered by any or all

outstanding awards that have been granted under the 2026 Plan, (iv) the option price of outstanding options and the base

price of outstanding SARs and (v) the performance objectives applicable to outstanding performance awards (or other awards,

if applicable) in the event that: (a) the outstanding shares are changed into or exchanged for a different number or kind of

shares or other stock or securities or other equity interests of the Company or another corporation or entity, whether through

merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split,

substitution or other similar corporate event or transaction or (b) there is an extraordinary dividend or distribution by the

Company in respect of its shares or other capital stock or securities convertible into capital stock in cash, securities or other

property. The 2026 Plan also provides that the Compensation Committee may provide that performance objectives related to

performance awards may be subject to adjustment under certain circumstances, as described in the plan.

***Award Transfer Restrictions.*** Except for transfers for no consideration by will or laws of descent or distribution and by

beneficiary designation, no award may be (i) sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of, (ii) pledged or otherwise hypothecated

or (iii) subject to attachment, execution or levy of any kind; and any purported transfer, pledge, hypothecation, attachment,

execution or levy; provided further, that any transfer of an award that is permitted under the plan must be for no consideration.

***Term; Amendment and Termination.*** The 2026 Plan will terminate on April 22, 2036 and no awards may be granted under

the 2026 Plan after that date. The Board may earlier terminate the 2026 Plan and the Board may at any time and from time to

time amend, modify or suspend the 2026 Plan, subject, if required by applicable laws, rules or regulations, to stockholder

approval as provided in the 2026 Plan. The Compensation Committee may amend, alter, suspend and/or terminate any award

granted under the 2026 Plan; provided, that an amendment or termination of an award may not materially adversely affect the

rights of a participant without the participant's consent (except as otherwise provided in the 2026 Plan). In addition, stockholder

approval is required to (i) make any adjustment (other than in connection with an adjustment event, a corporate transaction, a

change in control or other transaction where an adjustment is permitted or required under the terms of the 2026 Plan) or

amendment that reduces the option price of an option or base price of a SAR, whether through amendment, cancellation or

replacement grants or other means, (ii) cancel for cash, equity awards, shares of common stock or other consideration any

option for which the option price is greater than the then fair market value of a share or SAR for which the base price is greater

than the then fair market value of a share or (iii) take other action with respect to options or SARs that would be treated as a

repricing under the rules of the principal stock exchange rules on which the shares are listed. The Compensation Committee

has unilateral authority to amend the 2026 Plan and any award under the 2026 Plan to the extent necessary to comply with

applicable laws, rules or regulations, or changes thereto. In addition, the Administrator may adjust awards upon the occurrence

of certain unusual or nonrecurring events or under certain other circumstances, as provided in the 2026 Plan.

***Certain United States Federal Income Tax Consequences.*** The following is a brief description of the principal United States

federal (and not foreign, state or local) income tax consequences related to awards granted under the 2026 Plan as of the date

of this Proxy Statement. The summary is general in nature and is not intended to cover all tax consequences that may apply to

---

a particular employee, non-employee director or consultant or to the Company. The provisions of the Code and related

regulations concerning these matters are complicated and their impact in any one case may depend upon the particular

circumstances. Tax laws are subject to change.

***Non-Qualified Options.*** Generally, a grantee should not be subject to tax at the time a non-qualified option is granted, and no

tax deduction is then available to the Company. Upon the exercise of a non-qualified option, an amount equal to the excess of

the fair market value of the shares acquired on the date of exercise over the exercise price paid will be included in the

grantee's ordinary income and the Company will generally be entitled to deduct the same amount. Upon disposition of shares

acquired upon exercise, appreciation or depreciation after the date of exercise will be treated by the grantee or transferee of

the non-qualified option as either capital gain or capital loss and, depending upon the length of period following exercise, either

short term or long term.

If the grantee pays the exercise price, in whole or in part, with previously acquired shares, the exchange will not affect the tax

treatment of the exercise. No gain or loss is recognized on delivery of the previously acquired shares to the Company, and

shares received by the grantee equal in number to the previously acquired shares so exchanged will have the same basis and

holding period for capital gain purposes as the previously acquired shares. Shares received by the grantee in excess of the

number of previously acquired shares will have a basis equal to the fair market value of such additional shares as of the date

ordinary income equal to such fair market value is realized, and a holding period beginning as of such date.

***Incentive Stock Options.*** A grantee should not be subject to tax at the time an incentive stock option is granted or exercised,

and no tax deduction is available to the Company; however, the grantee may be subject to the alternative minimum tax on the

excess of the fair market value of the shares received upon exercise of the incentive stock option over the exercise price paid.

Upon disposition of the shares acquired upon exercise of an incentive stock option, capital gain or capital loss will generally be

recognized in an amount equal to the difference between the sale price and the exercise price, as long as the grantee has not

disposed of the shares within two years of the date of grant of the option or within one year from the date of exercise and has

been employed by the Company at all times from the grant date until the date three months before the date of exercise (one

year in the case of permanent disability or death). If the grantee disposes of the shares acquired upon exercise of an incentive

stock option without satisfying the holding period requirements (a disqualifying disposition), the grantee will recognize ordinary

income at the time of the disqualifying disposition to the extent of the excess of the amount realized on such disqualifying

disposition over the exercise price paid or, if less, the fair market value of the shares on the date the incentive stock option is

exercised. Any remaining gain or loss is treated as a capital gain or capital loss.

If the grantee pays the exercise price, in whole or in part, with previously acquired shares, the exchange will not affect the tax

treatment of the exercise. Upon such exchange, and except for disqualifying dispositions, no gain or loss is recognized upon

the delivery of the previously acquired shares to the Company, and the shares received by the grantee equal in number to the

previously acquired shares exchanged therefor will have the same basis and holding period for capital gain or capital loss

purposes as the previously acquired shares. Shares received by the grantee in excess of the number of previously acquired

shares will have a basis of zero and a holding period which commences as of the date the shares are issued to the grantee

upon exercise of the incentive stock option. If such an exercise is effected using shares previously acquired through the

exercise of an incentive stock option, the exchange of the previously acquired shares will be considered a disposition of such

shares for the purpose of determining whether a disqualifying disposition has occurred.

Pursuant to the Code and the terms of the 2026 Plan, in no event can there first become exercisable by a grantee in any one

calendar year incentive stock options granted by the Company with respect to shares having an aggregate fair market value

(determined at the time an option is granted) greater than $100,000. To the extent an incentive option granted under the 2026

Plan exceeds this limitation, it will be treated as a non-qualified option.

The Company is not entitled to a tax deduction upon either the exercise of an incentive stock option or upon disposition of the

shares acquired pursuant to such exercise, except to the extent that the grantee recognized ordinary income in a disqualifying

disposition.

***Restricted Stock.*** A grantee receiving restricted stock should not recognize ordinary income for tax purposes until the

restrictions lapse, unless the individual elects otherwise, as described below. Rather, the grantee will have taxable ordinary

income upon lapse of the restrictions equal to the fair market value of the shares at the time the restrictions lapse and the

Company will generally have a tax deduction in the same amount. Proceeds from the sale of stock sold after the restrictions

lapse will be taxable as a capital gain or capital loss, depending upon the amount by which the sale price exceeds or is less

than the fair market value of the stock at the time the restrictions lapse.

Alternatively, a grantee who receives restricted stock can elect under Section 83 of the Code to recognize ordinary income

immediately upon grant, in which case the grantee's taxable ordinary income and the Company's tax deduction are generally

determined at the time of grant, as explained in the first paragraph of this section. However, if the grantee subsequently forfeits

the stock, the grantee will not be able to recover the tax paid or take any tax deduction in respect of the tax previously paid.

***Restricted Stock Units; Performance Share Units and Performance Units; Share Awards; Dividend Equivalents.***

Generally, a grantee receiving RSUs, PSUs, performance units, share awards and dividend equivalent awards should not

recognize ordinary income for tax purposes until the settlement of such awards in cash and/or shares. At settlement, the

grantee will have taxable ordinary income equal to the fair market value of the shares and/or the amount of cash received and

the Company will generally have a tax deduction in the same amount.

***Limits on Company's Deductions and Additional Grantee Taxes.*** Section 162(m) of the Code ("Section 162(m)") generally

places a $1 million annual limit on a company's tax deduction for compensation paid to a "covered employee" (as defined

under Section 162(m)).

If awards vest or are paid on an accelerated basis upon a Change in Control or a subsequent termination of employment,

some or all of the value of that acceleration may be considered an "excess parachute payment" under Section 280G of the

Code. This would result in the imposition of a 20% federal excise tax on the recipients of the excess parachute payments and

a loss of the Company's deduction for the excess parachute payments.

Some awards under the 2026 Plan may be considered to be deferred compensation subject to Section 409A of the Code

("Code Section 409A") and related regulations and other guidance. Code Section 409A imposes certain requirements on

compensation that is deemed under Code Section 409A to involve deferred compensation. If Code Section 409A applies to an

award, and the 2026 Plan and award do not, when considered together, satisfy the requirements of Code Section 409A during

a taxable year, the grantee will recognize taxable ordinary income in the year of non-compliance in the amount of all amounts

subject to Code Section 409A to the extent that the award is not subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture or if the award is

subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture, in the year the substantial risk of forfeiture lapses. The grantee will be subject to an

additional tax of 20% on all amounts includable in ordinary income and may also be subject to interest charges under Code

Section 409A.

The Company does not undertake to have any responsibility to take, or to refrain from taking, any actions in order to achieve a

certain tax result for any grantee.

***Tax Withholding.*** The Company may withhold from any payment of cash or shares to a grantee or other person an amount

sufficient to cover any withholding taxes which may be required with respect to such payment or take any other action it deems

necessary to satisfy any income or other tax withholding requirements as a result of the grant, exercise, vesting or settlement

of any award under the 2026 Plan. The Company has the right to require the payment of any such taxes or to withhold from

wages or other amounts otherwise payable to the grantee. Alternatively, the Compensation Committee may in its sole

discretion, permit a grantee, in satisfaction of his or her obligation to pay withholding taxes in connection with the exercise,

vesting or other settlement of an award, to elect to (i) make a cash payment to the Company, (ii) have withheld a portion of the

shares then issuable to him or her or (iii) deliver shares owned by the grantee (which are fully vested and not subject to any

pledge or other security interest) prior to the exercise, vesting or other settlement of an award, in each case having an

aggregate fair market value equal to the minimum tax withholding required by law (or such other amount as will not have any

adverse accounting impact as determined by the Compensation Committee). Under the 2026 Plan, the number of shares to be

withheld or delivered will have a fair market value (as determined pursuant to the 2026 Plan) as of the date that the amount of

tax to be withheld is determined as nearly as equal as possible to, but not exceeding (unless otherwise permitted by the

Compensation Committee in a manner in accordance with applicable laws, rules, and regulations and applicable accounting

principles), the amount of such obligations being satisfied.

**Additional Information Regarding Equity Awards** 

***Shares Available and Outstanding Equity Awards.*** While the use of long-term incentives in the form of equity awards is an

important part of our compensation program, we are mindful of our responsibility to our stockholders to exercise judgment in

the granting of equity awards. As discussed above, among other factors, in setting the number of shares available for issuance

under the 2026 Plan, the Board and Compensation Committee considered the number of shares available under the 2017

Plan, total outstanding equity-based awards and how long the shares available are expected to last. Set forth below is certain

information about shares of our common stock that may be issued under the 2017 Plan as of February 27, 2026.

As of February 27, 2026 we had 86,305,141 shares of common stock issued and outstanding. The fair market value of one

share of our common stock on February 27, 2026, as determined based on the closing price as reported on the NYSE, was

$1.96.

As described in more detail in the table below, under the 2011 and 2017 Plans (and without giving effect to shares that would

be available under the 2026 Plan pursuant to Proposal 4) as of February 27, 2026:

• Approximately 2,730,921 shares remained available for issuance under the 2017 Plan (as noted below, we do not intend

to grant awards for more than 300,000 shares of such number); and

• Approximately, 347,821 shares were subject to outstanding stock options and approximately 4,025,345 shares were

subject to outstanding full value awards such as RSUs and PSUs, assuming a maximum payout for PSUs, under the

2011 and 2017 Plans.

The following table provides additional information regarding outstanding equity awards and shares available for future awards

under the 2017 Plan and its predecessor plan, the 2011 Stock Incentive Plan, as of February 27, 2026. Awards granted under

the 2017 Plan and the 2011 Stock Incentive Plan that are outstanding on the Effective Date will continue in accordance with

their terms, and thus shares subject to such awards will be issued if and to the extent provided under such award terms. As

noted above, as of February 27, 2026, approximately 2,730,921 shares remained available for the grant of awards under the

2017 Plan. These shares will not be rolled into the 2026 Plan.

1. Represents the maximum number of shares that the participants may earn under the associated PSU award agreements.

2. Amounts exclude the amended options for 942,763 shares and PSU awards for 201,603 shares that may only be settled in cash. No shares will be issuable

pursuant to these awards.

3. In connection with the Company's initial public offering, the 2011 Stock Incentive Plan was frozen and equity awards are no longer made under the plan.

4. As noted below, The Company does not intend to grant awards for more than 300,000 shares of such number of available shares under the 2017 Plan.

As noted above, the 2017 Plan expires on January 20, 2027 and no further awards may be granted under the 2017 Plan after

such date. Prior to the Effective Date, we do not intend to grant any awards under the 2017 Plan, other than awards for up to

300,000 shares (the "Reserved Grants") in respect of awards that may be granted to new hires, as well as for promotion and

retention purposes. If the 2026 Plan is approved by the stockholders, no awards will be granted under the 2017 Plan after the

Effective Date. However, if our stockholders do not approve the 2026 Plan, the Company expects to continue to grant awards

under the 2017 Plan, to the extent that shares are available, until the expiration of the 2017 Plan on January 20, 2027.

***Burn Rate.*** Our annual burn rate for fiscal year 2025 was 4.21%. Burn rate provides a measure of the potential dilutive impact

of our annual equity award program and is defined as the number of shares granted under the Company's equity plan during

the year divided by the basic weighted average shares outstanding. The Company's three-year average burn rate was 3.11 %.

***Overhang.*** The Board recognizes the impact of dilution on our stockholders and has evaluated the share request carefully in

the context of the need to motivate and retain our leadership team and other employees, non-employee directors and

consultants and to ensure that they are focused on our strategic priorities. Our overhang (a measure of shares subject to

stock-based awards outstanding or reserved for future grants as a percentage of shares issued and outstanding) as of

February 27, 2026 (adjusted to account for the Reserved Grants) was 5.13%. This percentage assumes an expected issuance

of awards for no more than 300,000 shares under the 2017 Plan prior to the Effective Date. If the 3,000,000 shares proposed

to be authorized for grant under the 2026 Plan are included in the calculation, our overhang would be 8.16%. As noted above,

as of February 27, 2026, the maximum aggregate number of shares remaining available for issuance under the 2017 Plan was

2,730,921 shares. These shares will not be added to or otherwise increase the number of shares to be made available under

the 2026 Plan, and, as of April 22, 2026, no future awards will be granted under the 2017 Plan or any prior stock incentive plan

if the 2026 Plan is approved by the stockholders. However, awards that are outstanding under the 2017 Plan and any prior

plans as of the Effective Date will continue in accordance with their respective terms. The Board believes that this number of

shares of common stock represents a reasonable amount of potential equity dilution, which will allow us to continue awarding

the equity awards that are vital to our equity compensation program.

***Total Dilution.*** Total dilution under the 2017 Plan (assuming a maximum payout for PSUs), as a percentage of common stock

outstanding as of February 27, 2026 was 8.19%.

***New Plan Benefits.***

No awards will be granted under the 2026 Plan unless it is approved by our stockholders. The selection of individuals who will

receive awards under the 2026 Plan, if our stockholders approve the 2026 Plan, and the amount of any such awards is not yet

determinable due to vesting, performance and other requirements. Therefore, it is not possible to predict the benefits or

amounts that will be received by, or allocated to, particular individuals or groups of participants.

In 2025, we granted awards under the 2017 Plan to our named executive officers and non-employee directors and to other

eligible employees. Our equity grant program is described under the "Equity Compensation Plans," "Compensation Discussion

and Analysis," "Executive Compensation" and "Director Compensation" sections in this Proxy Statement.

The Board believes that approval of the 2026 Plan is in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders in order to

continue the purposes of our equity compensation program and to serve as an important recruitment and retention tool. The

Board believes that substantial equity-based ownership encourages management to take actions favorable to the long-term

interests of the Company and its stockholders. Accordingly, equity-based compensation makes up a significant portion of the

overall compensation of our executive management team. The Board believes that the adoption of the 2026 Plan will allow us

to continue the use of equity compensation as a component of a competitive, but measured, overall compensation program.

INFORMATION ABOUT THE

ANNUAL MEETING AND VOTING

**Questions and Answers About the Annual Meeting** 

**Why am I receiving these materials?** <br>

You are receiving these materials because, at the close of business on February 23, 2026 (the "Record Date"), you owned

shares of the Company's common stock, $0.01 par value per share. All stockholders of record on the Record Date are entitled

to virtually attend and vote at the Annual Meeting. Each share of our common stock is entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting.

As of the Record Date, we had 86,305,141 shares of common stock outstanding. With respect to all matters submitted for vote

at the Annual Meeting, each share of common stock is entitled to one vote.

**What is a proxy?** <br>

A "proxy" is your legal designation of another person to vote the stock you own in the manner you direct. That other person is

called a proxy. If you designate someone as your proxy in a written document, that document also is called a proxy or a proxy

card. All shares represented by valid proxies received and not revoked before the Annual Meeting will be voted at the Annual

Meeting in accordance with the stockholder's specific voting instructions.

The Board is soliciting proxies for use at the Annual Meeting and has designated James Hayes and Willie White to serve as

proxies for the Annual Meeting, or any postponements or adjournments of the meeting. We have retained Innisfree M&A

Incorporated for a fee of $15,000, plus reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, to help us solicit proxies from brokers, bank

nominees and other institutional owners.

**Why did I receive a one-page notice in the mail regarding the Internet availability of** <br>**proxy materials instead of a full set of proxy materials?** <br>

The SEC rules allow companies to choose the method for delivery of proxy materials to stockholders. The Company has

elected to mail a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials, rather than send a full set of these materials in the mail. The

Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials were sent to stockholders beginning on or about March 12, 2026, and the

proxy materials were posted in the Financials section of the Company's website, *investors.jeld-wen.com*, and on the website

referenced in the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials on or around the same day.

Utilizing this method of proxy delivery expedites receipt of proxy materials by the Company's stockholders and lowers the

Company's costs. All stockholders will have the ability to access, and receive instructions on how to access, the proxy

materials over the Internet or request a printed set of the proxy materials, if desired. The Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy

Materials also provides instructions on how to vote using the Internet. In addition, stockholders may request to receive proxy

materials in printed form by mail or electronically by email on an ongoing basis.

**What is the difference between holding shares as a stockholder of record and as a** <br>**beneficial owner?**<br>

*Stockholders of Record*. If your shares are registered in your name with our transfer agent, Equiniti Trust Company, LLC, you

are a stockholder of record with respect to those shares and the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials or the proxy

materials were sent directly to you by Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. ("Broadridge").

*Beneficial Owners.* If you hold your shares in an account at a bank or broker, then you are the beneficial owner of shares held

in "street name." The Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials or proxy materials were forwarded to you by your bank or

broker, who is considered the stockholder of record for purposes of voting at the Annual Meeting. As a beneficial owner, you

have the right to direct your bank or broker on how to vote the shares held in your account.

**How can I access the proxy materials for the Annual Meeting?** <br>

Stockholders may access the proxy materials, which include the Notice of Annual Meeting of Stockholders, Proxy Statement

(including a form of proxy card) and 2025 Annual Report on the Internet at *www.proxyvote.com*. You can also request a paper

copy of the proxy materials be mailed to you free of charge via the Internet (at *www.proxyvote.com*), by telephone (toll-free at

800-579-1639) or by sending an email to *sendmaterial@proxyvote.com* and referencing the 16-digit number on the Notice of

Internet Availability of Proxy Materials that you received. Instead of receiving future copies of our proxy materials by mail, you

can elect to receive an e-mail that will provide electronic links to these documents. Opting to receive your proxy materials

online will save the cost of producing and mailing documents to your home or business, will give you an electronic link to the

proxy voting site and will help preserve environmental resources.

*Stockholders of Record*. You may elect to receive future proxy materials electronically at *www.proxyvote.com.* 

*Beneficial Owners*. If you hold your shares in a bank or brokerage account, you also may have the opportunity to receive the

proxy materials electronically. Please check the information provided in the proxy materials you receive from your bank or

broker regarding the availability of this service.

**You can help us make a difference by eliminating paper proxy mailings.** With your

consent, we will provide all future proxy materials electronically. Instructions for consenting to

electronic delivery can be found on your proxy card or at www.proxyvote.com. Your consent to

receive proxy materials electronically will remain in effect until canceled.

**How do I vote if I am a stockholder of record?**<br>

As a stockholder of record, you may vote your shares in any one of the following ways:

• Call the toll-free number shown on the proxy card;

• Vote, in advance of the Annual Meeting, on the Internet on the website shown on the proxy card;

• Mark, sign, date and return the enclosed proxy card in the postage-paid envelope; or

• Vote online at the Annual Meeting by following the instructions at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/JELD2026.

Whether or not you plan to virtually attend the Annual Meeting, we urge you to vote. Returning the proxy card or voting by

telephone or online in advance of the Annual Meeting will not affect your right to virtually attend the Annual Meeting and vote

online at the Annual Meeting.

**How do I vote if I am a beneficial owner?** <br>

As the beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your bank or broker how to vote your shares by following the instructions

that your bank or broker sent to you. You will receive, or be provided access to, proxy materials and voting instructions for

each account that you have with a bank or broker. As a beneficial owner, if you wish to change the directions that you have

provided your bank or broker, you should follow the instructions that your bank or broker sent to you.

As a beneficial owner, you are also invited to virtually attend the Annual Meeting. However, since you are not the stockholder

of record, you may not vote your shares online at the Annual Meeting unless you obtain in advance a signed legal proxy from

your bank or broker giving you the right to vote the shares and follow the instructions at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/

JELD2026.

**What if I return my proxy card or vote by Internet or phone but do not specify how I** <br>**want to vote?** <br>

*Stockholders of Record*. If you are a stockholder of record and sign and return your proxy card or complete the online or

telephone voting procedures, but do not specify how you want to vote your shares, we will vote them in accordance with the

recommendations of the Board, as follows:

• FOR the election of the ten director nominees;

• FOR the approval, on an advisory basis, of the compensation of our named executive officers;

• FOR the ratification of PwC as our independent auditor for 2026; and

• FOR the approval of the 2026 Omnibus Equity Plan.

*Beneficial Owners*. If you sign your voting card with no further instructions and you are a beneficial owner, then please see the

response to the question immediately below for a description of how your shares will be voted.

**What is the effect of broker non-votes, abstentions and withheld votes?**<br>

Under the rules of the NYSE, if you are a beneficial owner of shares held in street name, your bank or broker has discretion to

vote only on certain "routine" matters without your voting instructions. The only "routine" proposal you are being asked to vote

on at the Annual Meeting is the ratification of PwC as the Company's independent auditor for the fiscal year ending December

31, 2026 (Proposal Three). Your bank or broker will not be permitted to vote your shares on any of the other proposals at the

Annual Meeting unless you provide proper voting instructions. Accordingly, stockholders are urged to give their bank or broker

instructions on voting their shares on all matters.

Our Bylaws require that elections of directors (Proposal One) be determined by a plurality of the votes cast. Abstentions,

withheld votes and broker non-votes have no effect on the proposal for the election of directors. Any non-employee director

nominee who does not receive the affirmative vote of the majority of votes cast must promptly tender their resignation from the

Board.

The affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast affirmatively or negatively is required to approve the compensation of the

Company's named executive officers on an advisory basis (Proposal Two), the ratification of PwC as the Company's

independent auditor for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026 (Proposal Three) and to approve the 2026 Omnibus Equity

Plan (Proposal Four). Abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of Proposals Two, Three and Four.

**How do I vote Plan Shares?**<br>

If you are a participant in the JELD-WEN Employee Stock Ownership and Retirement Plan ("ESOP") and/or JELD-WEN KSOP

("KSOP"; together with the ESOP, each a "Plan"), you will receive a voting card that will permit you to instruct the administrator

of the Plan how to vote the shares of common stock credited to your account(s) and held in a Plan on February 23, 2026.

The administrator, as custodian of the Plan's assets and stockholder of record, will vote these shares in accordance with your

instructions to the Plan administrator. The Plan administrator will vote uninstructed shares proportionally to vote instructions

received.

**What can I do if I change my mind after I vote?** <br>

*Stockholders of Record*. If you are a stockholder of record, you can revoke your proxy before it is exercised by:

• Written notice of revocation to JELD-WEN Holding, Inc., 2645 Silver Crescent Drive, Charlotte, North Carolina 28273,

Attention: Corporate Secretary;

• Timely delivery of a valid, later-dated proxy or a later-dated online vote or vote by telephone; or

• Virtually attending the Annual Meeting and voting electronically by ballot online by following the instructions at

www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/JELD2026.

*Beneficial Owners*. If you are a beneficial owner of shares but not the stockholder of record, you may submit new voting

instructions by contacting your bank or broker. You may also vote online at the Annual Meeting if you obtain a legal proxy as

described in the answer to the question "*How do I vote if I am a beneficial owner?*" above. All shares represented by valid

proxies received and not revoked will be voted at the Annual Meeting in accordance with the stockholder's specific voting

instructions.

**How can I virtually attend the Annual Meeting?** <br>

You are entitled to virtually attend the Annual Meeting only if you were a stockholder of record as of the Record Date or you

hold a valid legal proxy for the Annual Meeting as described in the answer to the previous question, by logging in at

www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/JELD2026. To log in, you will need the 16-digit control number provided on your proxy

card or voting instruction form. Attendees will be required to comply with meeting guidelines and procedures available at

www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/JELD2026.

**What votes need to be present to hold the Annual Meeting?** <br>

Under our Bylaws, a quorum will exist at the Annual Meeting if stockholders holding a majority of the shares entitled to vote at

the Annual Meeting are present in person or by proxy. Stockholders of record who return a proxy or vote in person at the

meeting will be considered part of the quorum.

Abstentions, withheld votes and broker non-votes are counted as "present" for determining a quorum. Virtual attendance at our

Annual Meeting constitutes presence in person for purposes of quorum at the meeting.

**Who will count the votes?**<br>

American Election Services, LLC ("AES") will act as the inspector of elections and count the votes.

**Where can I find the voting results?** <br>

We will announce the preliminary voting results at the Annual Meeting. We will also publish voting results in a current report on

Form 8-K that we will file with the SEC after the Annual Meeting. If on the date of this Form 8-K filing the inspector of election

for the Annual Meeting has not certified the voting results as final, we will note in the filing that the results are preliminary and

publish the final results in a subsequent amendment on Form 8-K/A filing within four business days after the final voting results

are known.

**Who will pay the costs of soliciting these proxies?** <br>

We will bear the entire cost of solicitation of proxies, including preparation, assembly, printing and mailing of the Notice of

Internet Availability of Proxy Materials, or a full set of the proxy materials (including the Proxy Statement, the 2025 Annual

Report and proxy card), as applicable, and any additional information furnished to stockholders. Broadridge will assist us in

distribution of the proxy materials and AES will provide voting and tabulation services for the Annual Meeting.

We may reimburse banks, brokers, custodians and nominees for their reasonable costs of forwarding proxy materials to

beneficial owners. Original solicitation of proxies may be supplemented by electronic means, mail, facsimile, telephone or

personal solicitation by our directors, officers or other employees. No additional compensation will be paid to our directors,

officers, or other employees for such services.

**Are you "householding" for stockholders sharing the same address?** <br>

The SEC's rules permit us to deliver a single copy of the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials, or a full set of the

proxy materials, as applicable, to an address that two or more stockholders share. This method of delivery is referred to as

"householding" and can significantly reduce our printing and mailing costs. It also reduces the volume of mail that you receive.

We will deliver only one Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials, or a full set of the proxy materials (including the Proxy

Statement, the 2025 Annual Report and proxy card with postage-paid envelope), as applicable, to multiple registered

stockholders sharing an address, unless we receive instructions to the contrary from one or more of the stockholders at the

address or telephone number below.

If printed copies of proxy materials are requested, we will still send each stockholder an individual proxy card.

If you did not receive an individual copy of the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials, or a full set of the proxy

materials, as applicable, we will send copies to you if you contact us at JELD-WEN Holding, Inc., 2645 Silver Crescent Drive,

Charlotte, North Carolina 28273, Attention: Corporate Secretary or by telephone at (877) 592-7575. If you and other residents

at your address received multiple copies of the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials and desire to receive only a

single copy of these materials, you may contact your bank or broker or contact us at the above address or telephone number.

APPENDIX B – 2026 OMNIBUS EQUITY PLAN

**JELD-WEN HOLDING, INC.** 

**2026 OMNIBUS EQUITY PLAN**

**<u>1.</u><u>Purpose.</u>**

The purpose of the Plan is to assist the Company with attracting, retaining, incentivizing and motivating officers,

employees and directors of, and consultants to, the Company, its Subsidiaries and Affiliates and to promote the success of the

Company's business by providing participating individuals with a proprietary interest in the performance of the Company. The

Company believes that this incentive program will cause participating officers, employees, directors and consultants to

increase their interest in the welfare of the Company, its Subsidiaries and Affiliates and to align their interests with those of the

stockholders of the Company, its Subsidiaries and Affiliates.

**<u>2.</u><u>Definitions.</u>**

In addition to other terms that are defined in the Plan, an Award Agreement or other applicable instrument, the

following shall apply:

<u>2.1.</u><u>"Adjustment Event"</u> shall have the meaning ascribed to such term in Section 12.1.

<u>2.2.</u><u>"Affiliate"</u> shall mean any entity that the Company, either directly or indirectly through one or more

intermediaries, is in common control with, is controlled by or controls, each within the meaning of the Securities Act.

<u>2.3.</u><u>"Applicable Law"</u> means any applicable laws, rules and regulations (or similar guidance), including but not

limited to the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, the Code and the listing or other rules of any applicable stock exchange.

References to any applicable laws, rules and regulations, including references to any sections or other provisions of applicable

laws, rules and regulations, shall also refer to any successor provisions thereto unless the Committee determines otherwise.

<u>2.4.</u><u>"Award"</u> means, individually or collectively, a grant of an Option, Restricted Stock, a Restricted Stock Unit, a

the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act) of fifty percent (50%) or more of the combined

voting power of the Company's then-outstanding Voting Securities; provided, however, that in determining whether a

Change in Control has occurred pursuant to this Section 2.7(a), the acquisition of Voting Securities in a Non-Control

Acquisition (as hereinafter defined) shall not constitute a Change in Control. A "<u>Non-Control Acquisition</u>" shall mean

an acquisition by (i) an employee benefit plan (or a trust forming a part thereof) maintained by (A) the Company or (B)

any corporation or other Person the majority of the voting power, voting equity securities or equity interest of which is

owned, directly or indirectly, by the Company (for purposes of this definition, a "<u>Related Entity</u>"), (ii) the Company or

any Related Entity or (iii) any Person in connection with a Non-Control Transaction (as hereinafter defined);

(b)The individuals who, as of the Effective Date of this Plan, are members of the Board (the

"<u>Incumbent Board</u>") cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority of the members of the Board; provided,

however, that if the election, or nomination for election, by the stockholders of the Company, of any new director was

approved by a vote of at least two-thirds of the Incumbent Board, such new director shall, for purposes of this Plan,

be considered as a member of the Incumbent Board; provided further, however, that no individual shall be considered

a member of the Incumbent Board if such individual initially assumed office as a result of either an actual or

threatened solicitation of proxies or consents by or on behalf of a Person other than the Board (a "<u>Proxy Contest</u>")

including by reason of any agreement intended to avoid or settle any Proxy Contest;

**B-2 / JELD-WEN PROXY STATEMENT 2026**<br>

(c)The consummation of:

(i)A merger, consolidation or reorganization (x) with or into the Company or (y) in which

securities of the Company are issued (a "Merger"), unless such Merger is a Non-Control Transaction. A

"Non-Control Transaction" shall mean a Merger in which:

(a)The stockholders of the Company immediately before such Merger own directly

or indirectly immediately following such Merger at least a majority of the combined voting power of

the outstanding voting securities of (i) the corporation resulting from such Merger (the "<u>Surviving</u> 

<u>Corporation</u>"), if fifty percent (50%) or more of the combined voting power of the then outstanding

voting securities of the Surviving Corporation is not Beneficially Owned, directly or indirectly, by

another Person (a "<u>Parent Corporation</u>"), or (ii) if there is one or more than one Parent Corporation,

the ultimate Parent Corporation;

(b)The individuals who were members of the Board immediately prior to the

execution of the agreement providing for such Merger constitute at least a majority of the members

Voting Securities representing more than fifty percent (50%) of the combined voting power of the

Company's then-outstanding Voting Securities, has Beneficial Ownership, directly or indirectly, of

fifty percent (50%) or more of the combined voting power of the outstanding voting securities of (x)

the Surviving Corporation, if there is no Parent Corporation, or (y) if there is one or more than one

Parent Corporation, the ultimate Parent Corporation;

(ii)A complete liquidation or dissolution of the Company; or

(iii)The sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company and its

Subsidiaries taken as a whole to any Person (other than (x) a transfer to a Related Entity or (y) the

distribution to the Company's stockholders of the stock of a Related Entity or any other assets).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Change in Control shall not be deemed to occur solely because any Person (the "<u>Subject</u> 

<u>Person</u>") acquired Beneficial Ownership of more than the permitted amount of the then outstanding Voting Securities as a result

of the acquisition of Voting Securities by the Company which, by reducing the number of Voting Securities then outstanding,

increases the proportional number of shares Beneficially Owned by the Subject Person; provided that if a Change in Control

would occur (but for the operation of this sentence) as a result of the acquisition of Voting Securities by the Company and, after

such acquisition by the Company, the Subject Person becomes the Beneficial Owner of any additional Voting Securities and

such Beneficial Ownership increases the percentage of the then outstanding Voting Securities Beneficially Owned by the

Subject Person, then a Change in Control shall occur.

Further, notwithstanding the preceding provisions of this Section 2.7, in the event that any Awards granted under the Plan are

deemed to be deferred compensation subject to (and not exempt from) the provisions of Section 409A, then a transaction shall

only be considered a "Change in Control" with respect to such Awards if it also qualifies as (i) a change in the ownership of the

Company; (ii) a change in effective control of the Company; or (iii) a change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the

assets of the Company, as such terms are defined and interpreted under Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(5).

Change in Control has occurred and any related matters thereto.

Company's securities.

transaction or event having a similar effect on the Company's capital stock, (ii) a liquidation or dissolution of the Company or

transaction that is also a Change in Control.

for purposes of such Award shall mean, with respect to a Participant, that the Participant is unable to engage in any substantial

(a)The Board may, in its discretion, reserve to itself or exercise any or all of the authority and

responsibility of the Committee hereunder. To the extent the Board has reserved to itself or exercises any or all of the

authority and responsibility of the Committee, the Board shall be deemed to be acting as the Committee for purposes

of the Plan and references to the Committee in the Plan shall include the Board.

(b)Notwithstanding the other provisions of Section 3, the Board may delegate to one or more officers

of the Company the authority, within specified parameters, to grant Awards to Eligible Individuals, and to make any or

all of the determinations reserved for the Committee in the Plan and summarized in Section 3.3 with respect to such

Awards (subject to any restrictions imposed by Applicable Law and such terms and conditions as may be established

by the Board); provided, however, that, if and to the extent required by Section 16 of the Exchange Act, the

Participant, at the time of said grant or other determination, is not deemed to be an officer or director of the Company

within the meaning of Section 16 of the Exchange Act. To the extent that the Board has delegated authority to grant

Awards pursuant to this Section 3.2(b) to an officer(s), references to the "Committee" shall include references to such

officer(s), subject, however, to the requirements of the Plan, Rule 16b-3 and other Applicable Law.

3.3.<u>Committee Powers</u>. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, the Committee shall have all of the

powers necessary to enable it to carry out its duties under the Plan, including, without limitation, the power from time to time to:

(a)Determine those Eligible Individuals to whom Awards shall be granted under the Plan and

determine the number or value of Shares (or other consideration) in respect of which each Award is granted,

prescribe the terms and conditions (which need not be identical) of each such Award, including but not limited to, in

the case of Options, the Option Price per Share and the duration of the Option and in the case of Stock Appreciation

Rights, the Base Price per Share and the duration of the Stock Appreciation Right, accelerate the vesting or lapsing of

**B-6 / JELD-WEN PROXY STATEMENT 2026**<br>

advisable, including so that the Plan and the operation of the Plan comply with Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act,

the Code to the extent applicable and other Applicable Law, and otherwise make the Plan fully effective;

(c)Permit a Participant to defer such Participant's receipt of the payment of cash or the delivery of

Shares that would otherwise be due to such Participant by virtue of the lapse or waiver of restrictions with respect to

Restricted Stock Units and Performance Awards, or the satisfaction of any requirements or objectives with respect to

such Awards; provided that if any such deferral election is permitted or required, the Committee shall, in its discretion,

establish rules and procedures for such payment deferrals, which rules and procedures shall comply with Section

(f)Exercise its discretion with respect to the powers and rights granted to it as set forth in the Plan;

and

(g)Generally exercise such powers and perform such acts as are deemed necessary or advisable to

promote the best interests of the Company with respect to the Plan.

3.4.<u>Non-Uniform Determinations</u>. The Committee's determinations under the Plan need not be uniform and may

be made by it selectively among persons who receive, or are eligible to receive, Awards (whether or not such persons are

similarly situated). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Committee shall be entitled, among other things, to

make non-uniform and selective determinations, and to enter into non-uniform and selective Award Agreements, as to the

Eligible Individuals to receive Awards under the Plan and the terms and provision of Awards under the Plan. The Company

has no obligation to notify a Participant of the expiration or pending expiration of an Award.

3.5.<u>Non-U.S. Employees</u>. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, with respect to Participants working

outside the United States, the Committee may establish subplans, determine the terms and conditions of Awards, and make

such adjustments to the terms thereof as are necessary or advisable to fulfill the purposes of the Plan taking into account

matters of local law or practice, including tax and securities laws of jurisdictions outside the United States.

3.6.<u>Indemnification</u>. No member of the Board or the Committee shall be liable for any action, failure to act,

determination or interpretation made in good faith with respect to the Plan, an Award or any action hereunder. The Company

hereby agrees to indemnify each member of the Committee and the Board for all costs and expenses and, to the extent

permitted by Applicable Law, any liability incurred in connection with defending against, responding to, negotiating for the

settlement of or otherwise dealing with any claim, cause of action or dispute of any kind arising in connection with any actions

in administering the Plan or in authorizing or denying authorization to any transaction hereunder.

3.7.<u>No Repricing of Options or Stock Appreciation Rights</u>. The Committee shall have no authority to (i) make

any adjustment (other than in connection with an Adjustment Event, a Corporate Transaction, a Change in Control or other

similar transaction where an adjustment is permitted or required under the terms of the Plan) or amendment, and no such

adjustment or amendment shall be made, that reduces or would have the effect of reducing the Option Price of an Option or

Base Price of a Stock Appreciation Right previously granted under the Plan, whether through amendment, cancellation or

replacement grants or other means, (ii) cancel for cash, equity awards, Shares or other consideration any Option whose

Option Price is greater than the then Fair Market Value of a Share or Stock Appreciation Right whose Base Price is greater

than the then Fair Market Value of a Share; or (iii) take other action with respect to Options or Stock Appreciation Rights that

would be treated as a repricing under the rules of the principal stock exchange rules on which the Shares are listed unless, in

each such case, the Company's stockholders shall have approved such adjustment, amendment or cancellation.

3.8.<u>Effect of Certain Events</u>. The Committee may adjust or modify Performance Objectives or other

performance factors or criteria or other terms or conditions of Awards due to extraordinary items, transactions, events or

developments, or in recognition of, or in anticipation of, any other unusual or infrequent events affecting the Company or the

financial statements of the Company, or in response to, or in anticipation of, changes in Applicable Law, accounting principles

or business conditions, in each case as determined by the Committee. By way of example but not limitation, the Committee

may provide with respect to any Award that any evaluation of performance shall exclude or otherwise adjust for any specified

circumstance or event that occurs during a performance period, including circumstances or events such as the following: (i) the

gain, loss, income or expense resulting from changes in accounting principles or tax laws that become effective during the

Performance Cycle; (ii) the gain, loss, income or expense reported publicly by the Company with respect to the Performance

Cycle that are extraordinary or unusual in nature or infrequent in occurrence; (iii) the gains or losses resulting from and the

**B-7 / JELD-WEN PROXY STATEMENT 2026**<br>

direct expenses incurred in connection with, the disposition of a business, or the sale of investments or non-core assets; (iv)

the gain or loss from all or certain claims and/or litigation and all or certain insurance recoveries relating to claims or litigation;

(v) the impact of investments or acquisitions made during the year or, to the extent provided by the Committee, any prior year;

(vi) unbudgeted currency/foreign exchange impacts; (vii) asset impairments; (viii) large severance/restructuring costs; (ix)

pension settlements; (x) extraordinary nonrecurring items as described in then-current accounting principles; (xi) extraordinary

nonrecurring items as described in management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations

appearing in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K or Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q; (xii) a change in the Company's

fiscal year; and/or (xiii) any other specific unusual or infrequent events. The events may relate to the Company as a whole or

to any part of the Company's business or operations, as determined by the Committee. Any adjustments based on the effect

of certain events are to be determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and standards, unless

another objective method of measurement is designated by the Committee.

**4.<u>Stock Subject to the Plan: Grant Limitations; Minimum Vesting.</u>**

4.1.<u>Aggregate Number of Shares Authorized for Issuance</u>. Subject to any adjustment as provided in the Plan,

the maximum number of Shares that may be issued pursuant to Awards granted under the Plan shall not exceed 3,000,000

Shares, all of which may be granted pursuant to Incentive Stock Options. The Shares to be issued under the Plan may be, in

whole or in part, authorized but unissued Shares or issued Shares which shall have been reacquired by the Company and held

by it as treasury shares. The Company hereby reserves sufficient authorized Shares to meet the grant of Awards hereunder.

If the Plan is approved by the Company's stockholders, no further awards shall be granted under the Prior Plan on or after the

Effective Date, although Prior Plan awards that are outstanding as of such date shall continue in accordance with their terms.

4.2.<u>Individual Participant Limits</u>. The aggregate number of Shares that may be issued pursuant to Awards

granted under the Plan in any calendar year may not exceed 2,000,000 Shares in the case of an Eligible Individual who is an

Employee or Consultant (subject to adjustment as provided in the Plan). With respect to Non-Employee Directors, in any

calendar year, the maximum number of Shares subject to Awards granted during any such calendar year to any such Non-

Employee Director, taken together with the amount of any cash fees paid and cash-denominated Awards granted during such

calendar year to such Non-Employee Director in respect of service as a member of the Board, shall not exceed $900,000 in

total value (calculating the value of any such Awards settled in Shares based on the Fair Market Value per Share on the grant

date of such an Award, and subject to adjustment as provided in the Plan).

4.3.<u>Calculating Shares Available</u>. Shares shall be deemed to have been issued under the Plan only to the

extent actually issued and delivered pursuant to an Award. The following provisions shall apply with respect to the share

limitations of Section 4.1:

(a)For purposes of determining the number of Shares to be counted against the maximum share limit

set forth in Section 4.1, each Share subject to an Award shall be counted against the limit as one (1) share.

(b)To the extent that an Award is canceled, terminates, expires, is forfeited or lapses for any reason,

any such unissued or forfeited shares subject to the Award will again be available for issuance pursuant to Awards

granted under the Plan.

(c)Awards settled in cash shall not be counted against the share limitations stated in Section 4.1

herein.

(d)Dividends, including dividends paid in shares, or dividend equivalents paid in cash in connection

with outstanding Awards, will not be counted towards the share limitations in Section 4.1.

(e)To the extent that the full number of Shares subject to an Award other than an Option or Stock

Appreciation Right is not issued for any reason (and except as otherwise provided in Section 4.3(f) herein), including

by reason of failure to achieve maximum performance factors or criteria, only the number of Shares issued and

delivered shall be considered for purposes of determining the number of Shares remaining available for issuance

pursuant to Awards granted under the Plan.

(f)Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of Section 4.3, the following Shares may not again be

made available for issuance as Awards under the Plan: (i) Shares withheld from an Award or delivered by a

Participant to satisfy tax withholding requirements for an Award; (ii) Shares not issued or delivered as a result of the

net settlement of an outstanding Award; (iii) Shares withheld or delivered to pay the Option Price of an Option or to

satisfy the Base Price of a Stock Appreciation Right; and (iv) Shares repurchased on the open market with the

proceeds of the Option Price of an Option.

**B-8 / JELD-WEN PROXY STATEMENT 2026**<br>

(g)Further, (i) Shares issued under the Plan through the settlement, assumption or substitution of

outstanding awards granted by another entity or obligations to grant future awards as a condition of or in connection

with a merger, acquisition or similar transaction involving the Company acquiring another entity shall not reduce the

maximum number of Shares available for delivery under the Plan, and (ii) available Shares under a stockholder

approved plan of an acquired company (as appropriately adjusted to reflect the transaction) may be used for Awards

under the Plan and will not reduce the maximum number of Shares available under the Plan, subject, in the case of

both (i) and (ii) herein, to applicable stock exchange listing requirements.

4.4.<u>Vesting</u>. The Committee shall determine and set forth in the applicable Award Agreement the time or times at

which, and/or the conditions required for, an Award to vest, be earned, become exercisable and/or have restrictions lapse.

Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 3.3, Awards granted to a Participant under the Plan shall be subject to a minimum

vesting (or earning) (collectively, "<u>vesting</u>") period of one year (with no installment vesting during such first year); provided,

however, that (i) the Committee may provide for the acceleration of vesting and/or exercisability of any Award in its discretion

(A) in cases of death or Disability or (B) to the extent provided under the Plan or an Award Agreement in the event of a Change

in Control or a Corporate Transaction; (ii) the Committee may provide for the grant of an Award to any Participant without a

minimum vesting period or with a shorter minimum vesting period, but only with respect to Awards for no more than an

aggregate of five percent (5%) of the total number of Shares authorized for issuance under the Plan pursuant to Section 4.1

herein, upon such terms and conditions as the Committee shall determine; and (iii) the Committee also may provide for the

grant of Awards to Participants that have different vesting terms in the case of Awards that are substituted for other equity

awards in connection with mergers, consolidations or other similar transactions or Awards that are granted in exchange for

foregone cash compensation. In the Committee's discretion, Awards may be subject to a minimum vesting period of more than

one year.

**5.<u>Stock Options.</u>**

5.1.<u>Authority of Committee</u>. The Committee may grant Options to Eligible Individuals in accordance with the

Plan, the terms and conditions of the grant of which shall be set forth in an Award Agreement. Incentive Stock Options may be

granted only to Eligible Individuals who are Employees of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries on the date the Incentive

Stock Option is granted. Options shall be subject to the following terms and provisions:

5.2.<u>Option Price</u>. The Option Price or the manner in which the exercise price is to be determined for Shares

under each Option shall be determined by the Committee and set forth in the Award Agreement; provided, however, that the

exercise price per Share under each Option shall not be less than the greater of (i) the par value of a Share and (ii) 100% of

the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date the Option is granted (110% in the case of an Incentive Stock Option granted to a

Ten-Percent Shareholder). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may in its discretion authorize the grant of substitute

or assumed options of an acquired entity with an Option Price not equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market

Value per Share on the date of grant, if the terms of such substitution or assumption otherwise comply, to the extent deemed

applicable, with Section 409A and/or Section 424(a) of the Code.

5.3.<u>Maximum Duration; Post-Termination Exercise</u>. Options granted hereunder shall be for such term as the

Committee shall determine; provided that an Incentive Stock Option shall not be exercisable after the expiration of ten (10)

years from the date it is granted (five (5) years in the case of an Incentive Stock Option granted to a Ten-Percent Shareholder)

and a Nonqualified Stock Option shall not be exercisable after the expiration of ten (10) years from the date it is granted. The

Committee shall determine the extent, if any, to which a Participant may have the right to exercise an Option following

termination of the Participant's employment or service with the Company, a Subsidiary or an Affiliate; provided, however, that

(i) unless the Committee provides otherwise, an Option may, upon the death or Disability of the Participant prior to the

expiration of the Option, be exercised for up to one (1) year following the date of the Participant's death or Disability (but in no

event beyond the date on which the Option otherwise would expire by its terms), and (ii) if, at the time an Option (other than an

Incentive Stock Option) would otherwise expire at the end of its term, the exercise of the Option is prohibited by Applicable

Law or the Company's insider trading policy, the term shall be extended until thirty (30) days after the prohibition no longer

applies (subject to any Code Section 409A considerations). The Committee may, subsequent to the granting of any Option

(and subject to any Section 409A considerations), extend the period within which the Option may be exercised (including

following a Termination), but in no event shall the period be extended to a date that is later than the earlier of the latest date on

which the Option could have been exercised and the 10th anniversary of the date of grant of the Option, except as otherwise

provided herein in this Section 5.3.

5.4.<u>Vesting</u>. Subject to Plan terms, to the extent not exercised, vested installments shall accumulate and be

exercisable, in whole or in part, at any time after becoming exercisable, but not later than the date the Option expires.

5.5.<u>Limitations on Incentive Stock Options</u>. To the extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value (determined as

of the date of the grant) of Shares with respect to which Incentive Stock Options granted under the Plan and "incentive stock

options" (within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code) granted under all other plans of the Company or its Subsidiaries (in

**B-9 / JELD-WEN PROXY STATEMENT 2026**<br>

either case determined without regard to this Section 5.5) are exercisable by a Participant for the first time during any calendar

year exceeds $100,000, such Incentive Stock Options shall be treated as Nonqualified Stock Options. In applying the

limitation in the preceding sentence in the case of multiple Option grants, unless otherwise required by Applicable Law,

Options which were intended to be Incentive Stock Options shall be treated as Nonqualified Stock Options according to the

order in which they were granted such that the most recently granted Options are first treated as Nonqualified Stock Options.

5.6.<u>Method of Exercise</u>. The exercise of an Option shall be made only by giving notice in the form and to the

person designated by the Company, specifying the number of Shares to be exercised and, to the extent applicable,

accompanied by payment therefor and otherwise in accordance with the Award Agreement pursuant to which the Option was

granted. The Option Price for any Shares purchased pursuant to the exercise of an Option shall be paid in any of, or any

combination of, the following forms: (a) cash or its equivalent *(*e.g*.,* a check) or (b) if permitted by the Committee, the transfer,

either actually or by attestation, to the Company of Shares that have been held by the Participant for such time period, if any,

as may be determined by the Committee prior to the exercise of the Option, such transfer to be upon such terms and

conditions as determined by the Committee or (c) in the form of other property as determined by the Committee. In addition,

the Committee may provide for (i) the payment of the Option Price through Share withholding as a result of which the number

of Shares issued upon exercise of an Option would be reduced by a number of Shares having a Fair Market Value equal to the

Option Price and (ii) an Option may be exercised through a registered broker-dealer pursuant to such cashless exercise

procedures that are, from time to time, deemed acceptable by the Committee. No fractional Shares (or cash in lieu thereof)

shall be issued upon exercise of an Option and the number of Shares that may be purchased upon exercise shall be rounded

down to the nearest number of whole Shares.

5.7.<u>Rights of Participants</u>. No Participant shall be deemed for any purpose to be the owner of any Shares

subject to any Option unless and until (i) the Option shall have been exercised with respect to such Shares pursuant to the

terms of the applicable Award Agreement, (ii) the Company shall have issued and delivered Shares (whether or not

certificated) to the Participant, a securities broker acting on behalf of the Participant or such other nominee of the Participant

and (iii) the Participant's name, or the name of his or her broker or other nominee, shall have been entered as a stockholder of

record on the books of the Company. Thereupon, the Participant shall have full voting, dividend and other ownership rights

with respect to such Shares, subject to such terms and conditions as may be set forth in the applicable Award Agreement.

5.8.<u>Effect of Change in Control</u>. Any specific terms applicable to an Option in the event of a Change in Control

and not otherwise provided in the Plan shall be set forth in the applicable Award Agreement, employment agreement or similar

agreement, plan or arrangement.

**6.<u>Stock Appreciation Rights</u>**

6.1.<u>Grant</u>. The Committee may grant Stock Appreciation Rights to Eligible Individuals in accordance with the

Plan, the terms and conditions of which shall be set forth in an Award Agreement. A Stock Appreciation Right may be granted

(i) at any time if unrelated to an Option or (ii) if related to an Option, either at the time of grant or, with respect to Nonqualified

Stock Options, at any time thereafter during the term of the Option. Awards of Stock Appreciation Rights shall be subject to

the following terms and provisions.

6.2.<u>Terms; Duration; Post-Termination Exercise</u>. Stock Appreciation Rights shall contain such terms and

conditions as to exercisability, vesting and duration as the Committee shall determine, but in no event shall they have a term of

greater than ten (10) years. The Committee shall determine the extent, if any, to which a Participant may have the right to

exercise a Stock Appreciation Right following termination of the Participant's employment or service with the Company, a

Subsidiary or an Affiliate; provided, however*,* that (i) unless the Committee provides otherwise, a Stock Appreciation Right may,

upon the death or Disability of the Participant prior to the expiration of the Award, be exercised for up to one (1) year following

the date of the Participant's death or Disability (but in no event beyond the date on which the Stock Appreciation Right

otherwise would expire by its terms) and (ii) if, at the time a Stock Appreciation Right would otherwise expire at the end of its

term, the exercise of the Stock Appreciation Right is prohibited by Applicable Law or the Company's insider trading policy, the

term shall be extended until thirty (30) days after the prohibition no longer applies (subject to any Code Section 409A

considerations). The Committee may, subsequent to the granting of any Stock Appreciation Right (and subject to any Section

409A considerations), extend the period within which the Stock Appreciation Right may be exercised (including following a

Termination), but in no event shall the period be extended to a date that is later than the earlier of the latest date on which the

Stock Appreciation Right could have been exercised and the 10th anniversary of the date of grant of the Stock Appreciation

Right, except as otherwise provided herein in this Section 6.2.

6.3.<u>Vesting</u>. Subject to the terms of the Plan and an Award Agreement, to the extent not exercised, vested

installments shall accumulate and be exercisable, in whole or in part, at any time after becoming exercisable, but not later than

the date the Stock Appreciation Right expires.

**B-10 / JELD-WEN PROXY STATEMENT 2026**<br>

6.4.<u>Amount Payable; Base Price</u>. Upon exercise of a Stock Appreciation Right, the Participant shall be entitled

to receive an amount determined by multiplying (i) the excess of the Fair Market Value of a Share on the last business day

preceding the date of exercise of such Stock Appreciation Right over the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date the Stock

Appreciation Right was granted (the "<u>Base Price</u>"<u>)</u> by (ii) the number of Shares as to which the Stock Appreciation Right is

being exercised (the "<u>SAR Payment Amount</u>"). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may, subject to any Section

409A considerations, limit in any manner the amount payable with respect to any Stock Appreciation Right by including such a

limit in the Award Agreement evidencing the Stock Appreciation Right at the time it is granted. For clarity, the Base Price of a

Stock Appreciation Right shall be no less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value of a Share on the grant

date of the Stock Appreciation Right. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may in its discretion authorize the grant of

substitute or assumed Stock Appreciation Rights of an acquired entity with a Base Price per share not equal to at least one

hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant, if the terms of such substitution or

assumption otherwise comply, to the extent deemed applicable, with Section 409A and/or Section 424(a) of the Code.

6.5.<u>Method of Exercise</u>. Stock Appreciation Rights shall be exercised by a Participant by giving notice in the

form and to the person designated by the Company, specifying the number of Shares with respect to which the Stock

Appreciation Right is being exercised and complying with such other terms and conditions as may be determined by the

Committee.

6.6.<u>Form of Payment</u>. Payment of the SAR Payment Amount may be made in the discretion of the Committee

solely in whole Shares having an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the SAR Payment Amount, solely in cash or in a

combination of cash and Shares. If the Committee decides to make full payment in Shares and the amount payable results in

a fractional Share, payment shall be rounded down to the nearest whole Share.

6.7.<u>Effect of Change in Control</u>. Any specific terms applicable to a Stock Appreciation Right in the event of a

Change in Control and not otherwise provided in the Plan shall be set forth in the applicable Award Agreement, employment

agreement or similar agreement, plan or arrangement.

**7.<u>Dividends and Dividend Equivalent Rights</u>**

The Committee may, in its sole discretion, provide that Awards other than Options and Stock Appreciation Rights earn

dividends or Dividend Equivalent Rights, provided, however, that dividends and Dividend Equivalent Rights (whether paid in

cash or Shares), if any, on unearned or unvested Awards shall not be paid (even if accrued) unless and until the underlying

Award (or relevant portion thereof) has vested and/or been earned and such dividends and Dividend Equivalent Rights shall be

forfeited to the extent that the underlying Award is forfeited. Any crediting of dividends or Dividend Equivalent Rights may be

subject to such additional restrictions and conditions as the Committee may establish, including reinvestment in additional

Shares or share equivalents. Notwithstanding the other provisions herein, any dividends or Dividend Equivalent Rights related

to an Award shall be structured in a manner so as to avoid causing the Award and related Dividend Equivalent Rights to be

subject to Section 409A or shall otherwise be structured so that the Award and dividends or Dividend Equivalent Rights are in

compliance with Section 409A.

**8.<u>Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units</u>**

8.1.<u>Restricted Stock</u>. The Committee may grant Awards of Restricted Stock to Eligible Individuals in accordance

with the Plan, the terms and conditions of which shall be set forth in an Award Agreement. Each Award Agreement shall

contain such restrictions, terms and conditions as the Committee may, in its discretion, determine and (without limiting the

generality of the foregoing) such Award Agreements may require that an appropriate legend be placed on Share certificates.

With respect to Shares in a book entry account in a Participant's name, the Committee may cause appropriate stop transfer

instructions to be delivered to the account custodian, administrator or the Company's corporate secretary as determined by the

Committee in its sole discretion. Awards of Restricted Stock shall be subject to the following terms and provisions:

(a)<u>Rights of Participant</u>. Shares of Restricted Stock granted pursuant to an Award hereunder shall be

issued in the name of the Participant as soon as reasonably practicable after the Award is granted (and in a manner

intended to be compliant with or exempt from Section 409A), provided that the Participant has executed an Award

Agreement evidencing the Award (which, in the case of an electronically distributed Award Agreement, shall be

deemed to have been executed by an acknowledgement of receipt or in such other manner as the Committee may

prescribe) and any other documents which the Committee may require as a condition to the issuance of such Shares.

At the discretion of the Committee, Shares issued in connection with an Award of Restricted Stock may be held in

escrow by an agent (which may be the Company) designated by the Committee. Unless the Committee determines

otherwise and as set forth in the Award Agreement, upon the issuance of the Shares, the Participant shall have all of

the rights of a stockholder with respect to such Shares, including the right to vote the Shares and, subject to and in

accordance with the vesting and forfeiture provisions contained in Section 7, the provisions of Section 8.1(d) herein

**B-11 / JELD-WEN PROXY STATEMENT 2026**<br>

and the terms of any Award Agreement, to receive dividends or other distributions paid or made with respect to the

Shares.

(b)<u>Terms and Conditions</u>. Each Award Agreement shall specify the number of Shares of Restricted

Stock to which it relates, the conditions which must be satisfied in order for the restrictions on transferability set forth

in this Section 8.1(b) to lapse, and the circumstances under which the Award will be forfeited. During such vesting

period as may be set by the Committee in the Award Agreement, the Participant shall not be permitted to sell,

transfer, pledge, hypothecate or assign Shares of Restricted Stock awarded under the Plan except for transfers for

no consideration by will or the laws of descent and distribution. The Committee may also impose such other

restrictions and conditions, including the attainment of Performance Objectives or other corporate, individual or other

performance goals, on Restricted Stock as it determines in its sole discretion. Any attempt to dispose of any

Restricted Stock in contravention of any such restrictions shall be null and void and without effect.

(c)<u>Delivery of Shares</u>. Upon the lapse of the restrictions on Shares of Restricted Stock, the

Committee shall cause a stock certificate or evidence of book entry Shares to be delivered to the Participant with

respect to such Shares of Restricted Stock, free of all restrictions hereunder.

(d)<u>Treatment of Dividends.</u> The payment to the Participant of dividends, or a specified portion thereof,

declared or paid on such Shares by the Company shall be (i) deferred until the lapsing of the restrictions imposed

upon such Shares and (ii) held by the Company for the account of the Participant until such time and shall be subject

to restrictions and risk of forfeiture to the same extent as the Restricted Stock with respect to which such dividends

are payable. The Committee shall determine whether such dividends are to be reinvested in Shares (which shall be

held as additional Shares of Restricted Stock) or held in cash. Payment of deferred dividends in respect of Shares of

Restricted Stock (whether held in cash or as additional Shares of Restricted Stock), shall be made upon the lapsing

of restrictions imposed on the Shares in respect of which the deferred dividends were paid, and any dividends

deferred in respect of any Shares of Restricted Stock shall be forfeited upon the forfeiture of such Shares.

(e)<u>Effect of Change in Control</u>. Any specific terms applicable to Restricted Stock in the event of a

Change in Control and not otherwise provided in the Plan shall be set forth in the applicable Award Agreement,

employment agreement or similar agreement, plan or arrangement.

8.2.<u>Restricted Stock Unit Awards</u>. The Committee may grant Awards of Restricted Stock Units to Eligible

Individuals in accordance with the Plan, the terms and conditions of which shall be set forth in an Award Agreement.

(a)<u>Terms and Conditions</u>. Each Award Agreement related to a Restricted Stock Unit Award shall

contain such restrictions, terms and conditions as the Committee may, in its discretion, determine. For clarity, the

Committee may if it so determines also impose such other restrictions and conditions, including the attainment of

Performance Objectives or other corporate, individual or other performance goals, on Restricted Stock Unit Awards.

(b)<u>Payment of Awards</u>. Each Restricted Stock Unit shall represent the right of the Participant to

receive one Share, together, unless the Committee determines otherwise (and subject to the provisions of Section 7

herein), with such dividends as may have accrued with respect to such Share from the time of the grant of the Award

until the time of vesting, upon vesting of the Restricted Stock Unit or on any later date specified by the Committee,

subject to a Participant's deferral election, if any, and any applicable Section 409A considerations; provided, however*,* 

that the Committee may provide for the settlement of Restricted Stock Units in cash equal to the Fair Market Value of

the Shares that would otherwise be delivered to the Participant (determined as of the date of the Shares would have

been delivered), or a combination of cash and Shares. The Committee may, at the time a Restricted Stock Unit is

granted, provide a limitation on the amount payable in respect of each Restricted Stock Unit.

(c)<u>Effect of Change in Control</u>. Any specific terms applicable to Restricted Stock Units in the event of

a Change in Control and not otherwise provided in the Plan shall be set forth in the applicable Award Agreement,

employment agreement or similar agreement, plan or arrangement.

**9.<u>Performance Awards</u>**

9.1.<u>Performance Share Units</u>. The Committee may grant Performance Share Units to Eligible Individuals in

accordance with the Plan, the terms and conditions of which shall be set forth in an Award Agreement. A Performance Share

Unit means an Award granted under Section 9, in an amount determined by the Committee and specified in an Award

Agreement, stated with reference to a specified number of Shares, that entitles the holder to receive Shares, a cash payment

or a combination of Shares and cash (as determined by the Committee), subject to the terms of the Plan and the terms and

conditions established by the Committee. For clarity, Performance Share Units shall be denominated in Shares and, contingent

upon the attainment of specified Performance Objectives within the Performance Cycle and such other vesting and other

**B-12 / JELD-WEN PROXY STATEMENT 2026**<br>

conditions as may be determined by the Committee (including without limitation, a continued employment requirement

following the end of the applicable Performance Cycle), represent the right to receive payment as provided in Sections 9.1(a)

and (b) of the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date the Performance Share Unit becomes vested or any other date

specified by the Committee, subject to a Participant's deferral election, if any (and further subject to any Section 409A

considerations). The Committee may specify a maximum amount payable in respect of a vested Performance Share Unit.

(a)<u>Terms and Conditions: Vesting and Forfeiture</u>. Each Award Agreement shall specify the number of

Performance Share Units to which the Award relates, the Performance Objectives and other conditions which must be

satisfied in order for the Performance Share Units to vest and the Performance Cycle within which such Performance

Objectives must be satisfied and the circumstances under which the Award will be forfeited.

(b)<u>Payment of Awards</u>. Subject to Section 9.1(c), payment to Participants in respect of vested

Performance Share Units shall be made as soon as practicable after the last day of the Performance Cycle to which

such Award relates or at such other time or times as the Committee may determine that the Award has become

vested, provided that payment shall be made in a manner intended to be compliant with or exempt from Section

409A. Such payments may be made entirely in Shares valued at their Fair Market Value, entirely in cash or in such

combination of Shares and cash as the Committee in its discretion shall determine.

(c)<u>Determination of Performance</u>. In respect of a Performance Share Unit, the Committee may, in its

sole discretion, (i) reduce the amount of cash paid or number of Shares to be issued or that have been issued and

that become vested or on which restrictions lapse, and/or (ii) establish rules and procedures that have the effect of

limiting the amount payable to any Participant to an amount that is less than the amount that otherwise would be

payable under an Award granted under this Section 9. The Committee may exercise such discretion in a non-uniform

manner among Participants.

(d)<u>Effect of Change in Control</u>. Any specific terms applicable to a Performance Share Award in the

event of a Change in Control and not otherwise provided in the Plan shall be set forth in the applicable Award

Agreement, employment agreement or similar agreement, plan or arrangement.

9.2.<u>Performance Units</u>. The Committee may grant Awards of Performance Units to Eligible Individuals in

accordance with the Plan, the terms and conditions of which shall be set forth in an Award Agreement. A Performance Unit

means an Award granted under Section 9, in an amount (which may be denominated in a cash amount) determined by the

Committee and specified in an Award Agreement, that entitles the holder to receive Shares, a cash payment or a combination

of Shares and cash (as determined by the Committee), subject to the terms of the Plan and the terms and conditions

established by the Committee, and contingent upon the attainment of specified Performance Objectives within the

Performance Cycle and such other vesting and other conditions as may be determined by the Committee (including without

limitation, a continued employment requirement following the end of the applicable Performance Cycle). Performance Units

represent the right to receive payment as provided in Sections 9.2(a) and (b) of the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date

the Performance Unit becomes vested or any other date specified by the Committee, subject to a Participant's deferral

election, if any (and further subject to any Section 409A considerations). The Committee may specify a maximum amount

payable in respect of a vested Performance Unit.

(a)<u>Terms and Conditions: Vesting and Forfeiture</u>. Each Award Agreement shall specify the number of

Performance Units to which the Award relates, the Performance Objectives and other conditions which must be

satisfied in order for the Performance Unit Award to vest and the Performance Cycle within which such Performance

Objectives must be satisfied and the circumstances under which the Award will be forfeited.

(b)<u>Payment of Awards</u>. Subject to Section 9.2(c), payment to Participants in respect of vested

Performance Units shall be made as soon as practicable after the last day of the Performance Cycle to which such

Award relates or at such other time or times as the Committee may determine that the Award has become vested,

provided that payment shall be made in a manner intended to be compliant with or exempt from Section 409A. Such

payments may be made entirely in Shares valued at their Fair Market Value, entirely in cash or in such combination of

Shares and cash as the Committee in its discretion shall determine.

(c)<u>Determination of Performance</u>. In respect of a Performance Unit Award, the Committee may, in its

sole discretion, (i) reduce the amount of cash paid or number of Shares to be issued or that have been issued and

that become vested or on which restrictions lapse, and/or (ii) establish rules and procedures that have the effect of

limiting the amount payable to any Participant to an amount that is less than the amount that otherwise would be

payable under an Award granted under this Section 9. The Committee may exercise such discretion in a non-uniform

manner among Participants.

**B-13 / JELD-WEN PROXY STATEMENT 2026**<br>

(d)<u>Effect of Change in Control</u>. Any specific terms applicable to a Performance Unit Award in the

event of a Change in Control and not otherwise provided in the Plan shall be set forth in the applicable Award

Agreement, employment agreement or similar agreement, plan or arrangement.

**10.<u>Share Awards</u>**

The Committee may grant a Share Award to any Eligible Individual on such terms and conditions as the Committee

may determine in its sole discretion (including but not limited to the provisions of Section 4.4). Share Awards may be made as

additional compensation for services rendered by the Eligible Individual or may be in lieu of cash or other compensation to

which the Eligible Individual is entitled from the Company. Any dividend payable in respect of a Share Award shall be subject to

vesting, restrictions and risk of forfeiture to the same extent as the Share Award with respect to which such dividends are

payable.

**11.<u>Effect of Termination of Employment: Transferability</u>**

11.1.<u>Termination</u>. The Award Agreement evidencing the grant of each Award shall set forth the terms and

conditions applicable to such Award upon Termination, which shall be as the Committee may, in its discretion, determine at the

time the Award is granted or at any time thereafter. Except as may otherwise be provided in the Plan, an Award Agreement or

determined by the Committee, all rights of a Participant with respect to an Award shall terminate upon the termination of the

Participant's employment or service.

11.2.<u>Transferability of Awards and Shares</u>.

(a)<u>Non-Transferability of Awards</u>. Incentive Stock Options shall not be transferable (including by sale,

assignment, pledge or hypothecation) other than transfers for no consideration by will or the laws of intestate

succession or, in the Committee's discretion, such transfers for no consideration as may otherwise be permitted in

accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.421-1(b)(2) or Treasury Regulation Section 1.421-2(c). Awards other

than Incentive Stock Options shall not be transferable (including by sale, assignment, pledge or hypothecation) other

than transfers for no consideration by will or the laws of intestate succession, except for transfers for no consideration

if and to the extent permitted by the Committee in a manner consistent with the registration provisions of the

Securities Act. Except as may be permitted by the preceding, an Option or Stock Appreciation Right shall be

exercisable during the Participant's lifetime only by him or her or by his or her guardian or legal representative. The

designation of a beneficiary in accordance with the Plan does not constitute a transfer.

(b)<u>Restrictions on Shares and Other Benefits</u>. The Committee may impose such restrictions on any

Shares acquired by or other benefits provided to a Participant under the Plan as it may deem advisable, including,

without limitation, minimum holding period requirements, restrictions under applicable federal securities laws,

restrictions under the requirements of any stock exchange or market upon which such Shares are then listed or

traded and restrictions under any blue sky or state securities laws applicable to such Shares.

(c)<u>Transfers By Will or by Laws of Descent or Distribution</u>. Any Award may be transferred for no

consideration by will or by the laws of descent or distribution; provided, however*,* that (i) any transferred Award will be

subject to all of the same terms and conditions as provided in the Plan and the applicable Award Agreement; and (ii)

the Participant's estate or beneficiary appointed in accordance with this Section 11.2(c) will remain liable for any

withholding tax that may be imposed by any federal, state or local tax authority.

(d)<u>Beneficiary Designation</u>. To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, the Company may from time to

time permit each Participant to name one or more individuals (each, a "<u>Beneficiary</u>"<u>)</u> to whom any benefit under the

Plan is to be paid or who may exercise any rights of the Participant under any Award granted under the Plan in the

event of the Participant's death before he or she receives any or all of such benefit or exercises such Award. Each

such designation shall revoke all prior designations by the same Participant, shall be in a form prescribed by the

Company, and will be effective only when filed by the Participant in writing with the Company during the Participant's

lifetime. In the absence of any such designation or if any such designation is not effective under Applicable Law as

determined by the Committee, benefits under Awards remaining unpaid at the Participant's death and rights to be

exercised following the Participant's death shall be paid to or exercised by the Participant's estate.

**12.<u>Adjustment upon Changes in Capitalization.</u>**

12.1.In the event that (a) the outstanding Shares are changed into or exchanged for a different number or kind of

Shares or other stock or securities or other equity interests of the Company or another corporation or entity, whether through

merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split,

substitution or other similar corporate event or transaction or (b) there is an extraordinary dividend or distribution by the

**B-14 / JELD-WEN PROXY STATEMENT 2026**<br>

Company in respect of its Shares or other capital stock or securities convertible into capital stock in cash, securities or other

property (any event described in (a) or (b), an "<u>Adjustment Event</u>"), the Committee shall determine the appropriate adjustments

to (i) the maximum number and kind of Shares of stock or other securities or other equity interests as to which Awards may be

granted under the Plan, (ii) the maximum number and class of Shares or other stock or securities that may be issued upon

exercise of Incentive Stock Options, (iii) the number and kind of Shares or other securities covered by any or all outstanding

Awards that have been granted under the Plan, (iv) the Option Price of outstanding Options and the Base Price of outstanding

Stock Appreciation Rights, and (v) the Performance Objectives applicable to outstanding Performance Awards (or other

Awards, if applicable).

12.2.To the extent practicable, any such adjustment in the Shares or other stock or securities (a) subject to

outstanding Incentive Stock Options (including any adjustments in the exercise price) shall be made in a manner intended not

to constitute a modification as defined by Section 424(h)(3) of the Code and only to the extent otherwise permitted by Sections

422 and 424 of the Code and (b) with respect to any Award that is not subject to Section 409A, in a manner intended not to

subject the Award to Section 409A and, with respect to any Award that is subject to Section 409A, in a manner intended to

comply with Section 409A.

12.3.If, by reason of an Adjustment Event, pursuant to an Award, a Participant shall be entitled to, or shall be

entitled to exercise an Award with respect to, new, additional or different shares of stock or securities of the Company or any

other corporation, such new, additional or different shares shall thereupon be subject to all of the conditions, restrictions and

performance criteria which were applicable to the Shares subject to the Award prior to such Adjustment Event, as may be

adjusted in connection with such Adjustment Event in accordance with this Section 12.

**13.<u>Effect of Corporate Transaction</u>**

13.1.Except as otherwise provided in the applicable Award Agreement, in connection with a Corporate

Transaction, either:

(a)Outstanding Awards shall, unless otherwise provided in connection with the Corporate Transaction,

continue following the Corporate Transaction and shall be adjusted if and as provided for in the agreement or plan (in

the case of a liquidation or dissolution) entered into or adopted in connection with the Corporate Transaction (the

"<u>Transaction Agreement</u>") or as may be determined by the Committee, which may include, in the sole discretion of the

Committee or the parties to the Corporate Transaction, the assumption or continuation of such Awards by, or the

substitution for such Awards of new awards of, the surviving, successor or resulting entity, or a parent or subsidiary

thereof, with such adjustments as to the number and kind of shares or other securities or property subject to such

new awards, exercise prices, vesting and other terms of such new awards as the Committee or the parties to the

Corporate Transaction shall agree, or

(b)Outstanding Awards shall terminate upon the consummation of the Corporate Transaction;

provided, however*,* that vested Awards shall not be terminated without:

(i)In the case of vested Options and Stock Appreciation Rights (including those Options and

Stock Appreciation Rights that would become vested upon the consummation of the Corporate Transaction),

(1) providing the holders of affected Options and Stock Appreciation Rights a period of at least fifteen (15)

calendar days prior to the date of the consummation of the Corporate Transaction to exercise the Options

and Stock Appreciation Rights, or (2) providing the holders of affected Options and Stock Appreciation

Rights payment (in cash or other consideration upon or immediately following the consummation of the

Corporate Transaction, or, to the extent permitted by Section 409A, on a deferred basis) in respect of each

Share covered by the Option or Stock Appreciation Rights being cancelled an amount equal to the excess, if

any, of the per Share price to be paid or distributed to stockholders in the Corporate Transaction (the value

of any non-cash consideration to be determined by the Committee in good faith) over the Option Price of the

Option or the Base Price of the Stock Appreciation Rights, or

(ii)In the case of vested Awards other than Options or Stock Appreciation Rights (including

those Awards that would become vested upon the consummation of the Corporate Transaction), providing

the holders of affected Awards payment (in cash or other consideration upon or immediately following the

consummation of the Corporate Transaction, or, to the extent permitted by Section 409A, on a deferred

basis) in respect of each Share covered by the Award being cancelled of the per Share price to be paid or

distributed to stockholders in the Corporate Transaction, in each case with the value of any non-cash

consideration to be determined by the Committee in good faith.

(c)For the avoidance of doubt, if the amount determined pursuant to clause (b)(i)(2) above is zero or

less, the affected Option or Stock Appreciation Rights may be terminated without any payment therefor.

**B-15 / JELD-WEN PROXY STATEMENT 2026**<br>

13.2.Without limiting the generality of the foregoing provisions of Section 13.1 or being construed as requiring any

such action, in connection with any such Corporate Transaction, the Committee may, in its sole and absolute discretion, cause

any of the following actions to be taken effective upon or at any time prior to any Corporate Transaction (and any such action

may be made contingent upon the occurrence of the Corporate Transaction):

(a)Cause any or all unvested Options and Stock Appreciation Rights to become fully vested and

immediately exercisable (as applicable) and/or provide the holders of such Options and Stock Appreciation Rights a

reasonable period of time prior to the date of the consummation of the Corporate Transaction to exercise the Options

and Stock Appreciation Rights;

(b)With respect to unvested Options and Stock Appreciation Rights that are terminated in connection

with the Corporate Transaction, provide to the holders thereof a payment (in cash and/or other consideration) in

respect of each Share covered by the Option or Stock Appreciation Right being terminated in an amount equal to all

or a portion of the excess, if any, of the per Share price to be paid or distributed to stockholders in the Corporate

Transaction (the value of any non-cash consideration to be determined by the Committee in good faith) over the

exercise price of the Option or the Base Price of the Stock Appreciation Right, which may be paid in accordance with

the vesting schedule of the Award as set forth in the applicable Award Agreement, upon the consummation of the

Corporate Transaction or, to the extent permitted by Section 409A, at such other time or times as the Committee may

determine;

(c)With respect to unvested Awards (other than Options or Stock Appreciation Rights) that are

terminated in connection with the Corporate Transaction, provide to the holders thereof a payment (in cash and/or

other consideration) in respect of each Share covered by the Award being terminated in an amount equal to all or a

portion of the per Share price to be paid or distributed to stockholders in the Corporate Transaction (the value of any

non-cash consideration to be determined by the Committee in good faith), which may be paid in accordance with the

vesting schedule of the Award as set forth in the applicable Award Agreement, upon the consummation of the

Corporate Transaction or, to the extent permitted by Section 409A, at such other time or times as the Committee may

determine.

(d)For the avoidance of doubt, if the amount determined pursuant to clause (b) above is zero or less,

the affected Option or Stock Appreciation Rights may be terminated without any payment therefor.

13.3.Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Plan or any Agreement,

(a)The Committee may, in its sole discretion, provide in the Transaction Agreement or otherwise for

different treatment for different Awards or Awards held by different Participants and, where alternative treatment is

available for a Participant's Awards, may allow the Participant to choose which treatment shall apply to such

Participant's Awards;

(b)Any action permitted under this Section 13 may be taken without the need for the consent of any

Participant. To the extent a Corporate Transaction also constitutes an Adjustment Event and action is taken pursuant

to this Section 13 with respect to an outstanding Award, such action shall conclusively determine the treatment of

such Award in connection with such Corporate Transaction notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary

(including Section 12).

(c)To the extent the Committee chooses to make payments to affected Participants pursuant to

Section 13.1(b)(i)(2) or (ii) or Section 13.2(b) or (c) above, any Participant who has not returned any letter of

transmittal or similar acknowledgment that the Committee requires be signed in connection with such payment within

the time period established by the Committee for returning any such letter or similar acknowledgement shall forfeit his

or her right to any payment and his or her associated Awards may be cancelled without any payment therefor.

**14.<u>Interpretation.</u>** 

14.1.<u>Section 16 Compliance</u>. The Plan is intended to comply with Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange

Act and the Committee shall interpret and administer the provisions of the Plan or any Award Agreement in a manner

consistent therewith. Any provisions inconsistent with such Rule shall be inoperative and shall not affect the validity of the

Plan.

14.2.<u>Compliance with Section 409A</u>.

(a)All Awards granted under the Plan are intended either not to be subject to Section 409A or, if

subject to Section 409A, to be administered, operated and construed in compliance with Section 409A.

**B-16 / JELD-WEN PROXY STATEMENT 2026**<br>

Notwithstanding this or any other provision of the Plan or any Award Agreement to the contrary, the Committee may

amend the Plan or any Award granted hereunder in any manner or take any other action that it determines, in its sole

discretion, is necessary, appropriate or advisable (including replacing any Award) to cause the Plan or any Award

granted hereunder to comply with Section 409A and all regulations and other guidance issued thereunder or to not be

subject to Section 409A. Any such action, once taken, shall be deemed to be effective from the earliest date

necessary to avoid a violation of Section 409A and shall be final, binding and conclusive on all Eligible Individuals and

other individuals having or claiming any right or interest under the Plan.

(b)The Plan and each Award Agreement will be interpreted to the greatest extent possible in a manner

that makes the Plan and the Awards granted hereunder exempt from Section 409A, and, to the extent not so exempt,

in compliance with Section 409A. If the Committee determines that any Award granted hereunder is not exempt from

and is therefore subject to Section 409A, the Award Agreement evidencing such Award will incorporate the terms and

conditions necessary to avoid the consequences specified in Section 409A(a)(I) of the Code, and to the extent an

Award Agreement is silent on terms necessary for compliance, such terms are hereby incorporated by reference into

the Award Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan, if the Shares are publicly traded, and if a

Participant holding an Award that constitutes "deferred compensation" under Section 409A is a "specified employee"

for purposes of Section 409A, no distribution or payment of any amount that is due because of a "separation from

service" (as defined in Section 409A without regard to alternative definitions thereunder) will be issued or paid before

the date that is six (6) months following the date of such Participant's "separation from service" (as defined in Section

409A without regard to alternative definitions thereunder) or, if earlier, the date of the Participant's death, unless such

distribution or payment can be made in a manner that complies with Section 409A, and any amounts so deferred will

be paid in a lump sum on the day after such six (6) month period elapses, with the balance paid thereafter on the

original schedule. Each payment provided to any Participant in connection with an Award granted hereunder shall be

considered a separate payment for purposes of Section 409A.

(c)With respect to any Award that constitutes nonqualified deferred compensation within the meaning

of Section 409A, Termination shall mean a separation from service within the meaning of Section 409A. A Participant

shall be deemed to have terminated for all purposes of the Plan if such person is employed by or provides services to

a Subsidiary and such Subsidiary ceases to be a Subsidiary, unless the Committee determines otherwise.

(d)For clarity, and without in any way limiting the effect of any of the foregoing, in the event that

Section 409A requires that any special terms, provisions or conditions be included in the Plan or any Award

Agreement, then such terms, provisions and conditions shall, to the extent practicable, be deemed to be made a part

of the Plan or Award Agreement, as applicable. Neither the Company, its Subsidiaries or other Affiliates, the Board,

the Committee nor its or their designees or agents makes any representations that the payments or benefits provided

under the Plan or an Award Agreement will comply with Section 409A, and in no event will the Company, its

Subsidiaries or other Affiliates, the Board, the Committee nor its or their designees or agents be liable for any portion

of any taxes, penalties, interest or other expenses that may be incurred by the Participant (or any person claiming

through him or her) on account of non-compliance with Section 409A or have any obligation to take any action to

prevent the assessment of any additional tax or penalty.

**15.<u>Term; Plan Termination and Amendment of the Plan; Modification of Awards.</u>**

15.1.<u>Term</u>. The Plan shall terminate on the Plan Termination Date and no Award shall be granted after that date.

The applicable terms of the Plan and any terms and conditions applicable to Awards granted prior to the Plan Termination Date

shall survive the termination of the Plan and continue to apply to such Awards.

15.2.<u>Plan Amendment or Plan Termination</u>. The Board may earlier terminate the Plan and the Board may at any

time and from time to time amend, modify or suspend the Plan; provided, however, that approval of an amendment to the Plan

by the stockholders of the Company shall be required to the extent, if any, that stockholder approval of such amendment is

required under Applicable Law or pursuant to Section 3.7 herein.

15.3.<u>Modification of Awards</u>. The Committee may amend, alter, suspend and/or terminate any Award granted

under the Plan, prospectively or retroactively, but (except as provided in Section 15.4 herein), such amendment, alteration,

suspension or termination of an Award shall not, without the written consent of a Participant with respect to an outstanding

Award, materially and adversely affect the rights of the Participant with respect to the Award.

15.4.<u>Amendments to Comply with Applicable Law</u>. Notwithstanding Section 15.2 and Section 15.3 herein, the

following provisions shall apply:

**B-17 / JELD-WEN PROXY STATEMENT 2026**<br>

(a)The Committee shall have unilateral authority to amend the Plan and any Award (without

Participant consent) to the extent necessary to comply with Applicable Law or changes to Applicable Law (including

but in no way limited to Section 409A, Section 422 of the Code and federal securities laws).

(b)The Committee shall have unilateral authority to make adjustments to the terms and conditions of

Awards in recognition of unusual or nonrecurring events affecting the Company or any Affiliate, or the financial

statements of the Company or any Affiliate, or of changes in Applicable Law, or accounting principles, if the

Committee determines that such adjustments are appropriate in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the

benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under the Plan or necessary or appropriate to comply with

applicable accounting principles or Applicable Law.

**16.<u>Non-Exclusivity of the Plan.</u>**

The adoption of the Plan by the Board shall not be construed as amending, modifying or rescinding any previously

approved incentive arrangement or as creating any limitations on the power of the Board to adopt such other incentive

arrangements as it may deem desirable, and such arrangements may be either applicable generally or only in specific cases.

**17.<u>Limitation of Liability.</u>**

As illustrative of the limitations of liability of the Company, but not intended to be exhaustive thereof, nothing in the Plan

shall be construed to:

(a)Give any person any right to be granted an Award other than at the sole discretion of the

Committee;

(b)Limit in any way the right of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates to terminate the

employment of or the provision of services by any person at any time;

(c)Be evidence of any agreement or understanding, express or implied, that the Company will pay any

person at any particular rate of compensation or for any particular period of time; or

(d)Be evidence of any agreement or understanding, express or implied, that the Company will employ

or permit the service of any person at any particular rate of compensation or for any particular period of time.

**18.<u>Regulations and Other Approvals: Governing Law.</u>**

18.1.<u>Governing Law</u>. Except as to matters of federal law, the Plan and the rights of all persons claiming

hereunder shall be construed and determined in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware without giving effect to

conflicts of laws principles thereof.

18.2.<u>Compliance with Law</u>.

(a)The obligation of the Company to sell or deliver Shares or provide any other benefit with respect to

Awards granted under the Plan shall be subject to Applicable Law, including all applicable federal, state and foreign

securities laws, and the obtaining of all such approvals by governmental agencies as may be deemed necessary or

appropriate by the Committee.

(b)The Committee may make such changes as may be necessary or appropriate to comply with the

rules and regulations of any government authority or to obtain for Eligible Individuals granted Incentive Stock Options

the tax benefits under the applicable provisions of the Code and regulations promulgated thereunder.

(c)Each grant of an Award and the issuance of Shares or other settlement of the Award is subject to

compliance with all applicable federal, state and foreign law. Further, if at any time the Committee determines, in its

discretion, that the listing, registration or qualification of Shares issuable pursuant to the Plan is required by any

securities exchange or under any federal, state or foreign law, or that the consent or approval of any governmental

regulatory body is necessary or desirable as a condition of, or in connection with, the grant of an Award or the

issuance of Shares or other benefits, no Awards shall be or shall be deemed to be granted or payment made or

Shares or other benefits issued, in whole or in part, unless listing, registration, qualification, consent or approval has

been effected or obtained free of any conditions that are not acceptable to the Committee. A Participant or other

person claiming through him or her in connection with an Award shall make such representations and agreements

**B-18 / JELD-WEN PROXY STATEMENT 2026**<br>

and furnish such information as the Board or Committee may request to assure compliance with the foregoing or any

other applicable legal requirements.

18.3.<u>Transfers of Plan Acquired Shares</u>. Notwithstanding anything contained in the Plan or any Award Agreement

to the contrary, in the event that the disposition of Shares acquired pursuant to the Plan is not covered by a then current

registration statement under the Securities Act and is not otherwise exempt from such registration, such Shares shall be

restricted against transfer to the extent required by the Securities Act and Rule 144 or other regulations promulgated

thereunder. The Committee may require any individual receiving Shares pursuant to an Award granted under the Plan, as a

condition precedent to receipt of such Shares, to represent and warrant to the Company in writing that the Shares acquired by

such individual are acquired without a view to any distribution thereof and will not be sold or transferred other than pursuant to

an effective registration thereof under the Securities Act or pursuant to an exemption applicable under the Securities Act or the

rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. The certificates evidencing any of such Shares shall be appropriately amended

or have an appropriate legend placed thereon to reflect their status as restricted securities as aforesaid.

**19.<u>Miscellaneous.</u>** 

19.1.<u>Award Agreements; Plan Controls</u>. Each Award Agreement shall either be (a) in writing in a form approved

by the Committee and executed on behalf of the Company by an officer duly authorized to act on its behalf, or (b) an electronic

notice in a form approved by the Committee and recorded by the Company (or its designee) in an electronic recordkeeping

system used for the purpose of tracking Awards as the Committee may provide. If required by the Committee, an Award

Agreement shall be executed or otherwise electronically accepted by the recipient of the Award in such form and manner as

the Committee may require. The Committee may authorize any officer of the Company to execute any or all Award

Agreements on behalf of the Company. Unless the Committee determines otherwise, (i) in the event of a conflict between any

term or provision contained in the Plan and an express term contained in any Award Agreement, the applicable terms and

provisions of the Plan will govern and prevail, and (ii) the terms of an Award Agreement shall not be deemed to be in conflict or

inconsistent with the Plan merely because they impose greater or additional restrictions, obligations or duties, or if the Award

Agreement provides that such Award Agreement terms apply notwithstanding the provisions to the contrary in the Plan.

19.2.<u>Compliance with Forfeiture, Recoupment, Ownership and Other Policies or Agreements.</u> Notwithstanding

anything in the Plan or an Award Agreement to the contrary, the Committee may, at any time, in its discretion provide that an

Award, Shares, cash or other benefits related to an Award shall be forfeited and/or recouped if the Participant, during

employment or service or following termination of employment or service for any reason, engages in certain specified conduct,

including but not limited to violation of policies of the Company or an Affiliate, breach of non-solicitation, non-competition,

confidentiality or other restrictive covenants or other conduct by the Participant that is determined by the Committee to be

detrimental to the business or reputation of the Company or any Affiliate. In addition, without limiting the effect of the foregoing,

as a condition to participation in the Plan, each Participant shall be deemed to have agreed to comply with the Company's

clawback policy(ies), stock ownership guidelines and/or other policies adopted by the Company or an Affiliate, each as in effect

from time to time and to the extent applicable to the Participant. Further, each Participant shall be subject to such

compensation recovery, recoupment, forfeiture or other similar provisions as may apply under an Award Agreement, other

agreement or arrangement and/or Applicable Law. By participating in the Plan, a Participant shall be deemed to have

consented to the provisions of the Plan, including but not limited to this Section 19.2.

19.3.<u>Multiple Agreements</u>. The terms of each Award may differ from other Awards granted under the Plan at the

same time or at some other time. The Committee may also grant more than one Award to a given Eligible Individual during the

term of the Plan, either in addition to or, subject to Section 3.7, in substitution for one or more Awards previously granted to

that Eligible Individual.

19.4.<u>Withholding of Taxes; Other Tax Matters</u>. The Company or any of its Subsidiaries may withhold from any

payment of cash or Shares to a Participant or other person under the Plan an amount sufficient to cover any withholding taxes

which may become required with respect to such payment or take any other action it deems necessary to satisfy any income

or other tax withholding requirements as a result of the grant, exercise, vesting or settlement of any Award under the Plan.

The Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall have the right to require the payment of any such taxes or to withhold from

wages or other amounts otherwise payable to a Participant or other person, and require that the Participant or other person

furnish all information deemed necessary by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to meet any tax reporting obligation as a

condition to exercise or before making any payment or the issuance or release of any Shares pursuant to an Award. If the

Participant or other person shall fail to make such tax payments as are required, the Company or its Subsidiaries shall, to the

extent permitted by Applicable Law (including but not limited to Section 409A), have the right to deduct any such taxes from

any payment of any kind otherwise due to such Participant or other person or to take such other action as may be necessary

to satisfy such withholding obligations. If specified in an Award Agreement at the time of grant or otherwise approved by the

Committee in its sole discretion, a Participant may, in satisfaction of his or her obligation to pay withholding taxes in connection

with the exercise, vesting or other settlement of an Award, elect to (i) make a cash payment to the Company, (ii) have withheld

a portion of the Shares then issuable to him or her or (iii) deliver Shares owned by the Participant (which are fully vested and

**B-19 / JELD-WEN PROXY STATEMENT 2026**<br>

not subject to any pledge or other security interest) prior to the exercise, vesting or other settlement of an Award, in each case

having an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the withholding taxes. To the extent that Shares are used to satisfy

withholding obligations of a Participant pursuant to this Section 19.4, the number of Shares to be withheld or delivered shall

have a Fair Market Value as of the date that the amount of tax to be withheld is determined as nearly equal as possible to, but

not exceeding (unless otherwise permitted by the Committee in a manner in accordance with Applicable Law and applicable

accounting principles), the amount of such obligations being satisfied. Such withholding obligations shall be subject to such

terms and procedures as may be established by the Committee. Participants are solely responsible and liable for the

satisfaction of all federal, state, foreign and/or local taxes and penalties that may arise in connection with Awards (including but

not limited to any income, employment or excise taxes and penalties arising under Section 409A or otherwise), and the

Company shall not have any obligation to indemnify, gross up or otherwise hold any Participant or any other person harmless

from any or all of such taxes. The Company shall have no responsibility to take or refrain from taking any actions in order to

achieve a certain tax result for a Participant or any other person, and the Company shall not be liable for any interest or

penalty that a Participant incurs by failing to make timely payments of tax or otherwise.

19.5.<u>Disposition of ISO Shares</u>. If a Participant makes a disposition, within the meaning of Section 424(c) of the

Code and regulations promulgated thereunder, of any Share or Shares issued to such Participant pursuant to the exercise of

an Incentive Stock Option within the two-year period commencing on the day after the date of the grant or within the one-year

period commencing on the day after the date of transfer of such Share or Shares to the Participant pursuant to such exercise,

the Participant shall, within ten (10) days of such disposition, notify the Company thereof, by delivery of written notice to the

Company at its principal executive office and provide such additional information as the Company may require.

19.6.<u>Plan Unfunded</u>. The Plan shall be unfunded, and the Company shall not be required to create a trust or

segregate any assets that may at any time be represented by Awards under the Plan. The Plan shall not establish any

fiduciary relationship between the Company and any Participant or other person. Neither a Participant nor any other person

shall, by reason of the Plan, acquire any right in or title to any assets, funds or property of the Company or any Affiliate,

including, without limitation, any specific funds, assets or other property which the Company or any Affiliate, in their discretion,

may set aside in anticipation of a liability under the Plan. A Participant shall have only a contractual right to Shares or other

amounts, if any, payable under the Plan, unsecured by any assets of the Company or any Affiliate. Nothing contained in the

Plan shall constitute a guarantee that the assets of such entities shall be sufficient to pay any benefits to any person.
