We also will send a copy of the proxy materials, including the proxy card, to any holder of record who requests them in the manner set forth in the Notice. Distribution to shareholders of the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials (the "Notice"), is scheduled to begin on or about January 15, 2026.

We have requested that banks, brokerage firms and other nominees who hold TE Connectivity shares on behalf of the owners of the shares (such owners are often referred to, and we refer to them below, as "beneficial owners," "beneficial shareholders" or "street name holders") as of the close of business (Eastern Standard Time) on January 8, 2026 forward the Notice to those beneficial shareholders. We have agreed to pay the reasonable expenses of the banks, brokerage firms and other nominees for forwarding these materials.

#### Are proxy materials available on the Internet?
Yes.

**Important Notice regarding the Availability of Proxy Materials for the Annual General Meeting to be held on March 11, 2026.**

**Our proxy statement for the Annual General Meeting to be held on March 11, 2026, other proxy materials, our annual report to shareholders for fiscal year 2025 and our 2025 Irish Annual Report including our 2025 Irish Statutory Financial Statements are available at h*ttp://www.te.com/TEAnnualMeeting.***

8 2026 Annual General Meeting Proxy Statement

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

● Agenda Item No. 2: To ratify the appointment of Deloitte & Touche LLP as the independent auditors of the Company and Deloitte Ireland LLP as our statutory auditor under Irish law and to authorize the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors to set the auditors' remuneration;

● Agenda Item No. 3: Advisory Vote to Approve Named Executive Officer Compensation ("Say on Pay");

● Agenda Item No. 4: To authorize the company and/or any subsidiary of the company to make market purchases of company shares; and

● Agenda Item No. 5: Determine the price range at which the company can re-allot treasury shares.

**What is the recommendation of the Board of Directors on each of the agenda items scheduled to be voted on at the meeting? How do the Board of Directors and executive officers intend to vote with respect to the agenda items?**

TE Connectivity's Board of Directors recommends that you vote **FOR** each Director and **FOR** each of the agenda items listed above as recommended by our Board of Directors. Our Directors and Executive Officers have indicated that they intend to vote their shares in favor of each Director and each of the agenda items. On January 8, 2026, our Directors and Executive Officers and their affiliates beneficially owned approximately 0.1% of the outstanding shares entitled to vote.

#### What is the difference between being a shareholder of record and a beneficial owner?
If your shares are registered directly in your name in our share register operated by our stock transfer agent, you are considered the "shareholder of record" of those shares.

If your shares are held in a stock brokerage account or by a bank or other nominee on your behalf and the broker, bank or nominee is registered in our share register as a shareholder with voting rights, your broker, bank or other nominee is considered the shareholder of record and you are considered the "beneficial owner" or "street name holder" of those shares. In this case, the shareholder of record that is registered as a shareholder with voting rights has forwarded either the Notice or the proxy materials, as applicable, and separate voting instructions, to you. As the beneficial owner, when directing the shareholder of record how to vote your shares, you should follow the voting instructions they have provided to you.

#### Who is entitled to vote?

#### Shareholders of record
All shareholders registered in our share register at the close of business (Eastern Standard Time) on **January 8, 2026** are entitled to vote on the matters set forth in this proxy statement and any other matter properly presented at the meeting for consideration.

#### Beneficial owners
Beneficial owners whose banks, brokers or nominees are shareholders registered in our share register with respect to the beneficial owners' shares at the close of business (Eastern Standard Time) on **January 8, 2026** are entitled to vote on the matters set forth in this proxy statement and any other matter properly presented at the meeting for consideration, provided such banks, brokers or nominees become registered as shareholders with voting rights. See "— How do I vote if a I am a beneficial shareholder?"

#### I am a shareholder of record. How do I become registered as a shareholder with voting rights?
If you are a shareholder of record, you have been registered as a shareholder with voting rights in our share register.

#### How do I vote if I am a shareholder of record?
If you are a registered shareholder, you can vote in the following ways:

***By Internet:*** You can vote over the Internet at *https://www.proxyvote.com* by following the instructions in the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials previously sent to you or on the proxy card. By casting votes electronically, you will authorize the appointed proxy to vote your shares on your behalf.

***By Mail:*** You can vote by marking, dating and signing the proxy card (which will be sent to you at your request in accordance with instructions provided in the Notice) and returning it by mail for receipt by no later

2026 Annual General Meeting Proxy Statement 9

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

than indicated below. By marking, dating, signing and mailing the proxy card as instructed, you authorize the appointed proxy to vote your shares on your behalf.

**In order to assure that your votes are tabulated in time to be voted at the Annual General Meeting, you must vote electronically by 5:00 p.m., GMT on March 10, 2026, or submit your proxy card by mail so that it is received by 5:00 p.m., GMT on March 10, 2026.**

If you have voted electronically or timely submitted a properly executed proxy card, your shares will be voted by the proxy as you have instructed. If any other matters are properly presented at the meeting (or any adjournment thereof), the proxy will either (i) vote the shares represented by your completed proxy in accordance with the specific instructions given by you, (ii) if selected by you in granting your proxy (as a general instruction), in accordance with the recommendation of the Company's Board of Directors at the meeting, or (iii) if no instructions are given, abstain from voting your shares.

#### How do I vote if I am a beneficial shareholder?
***General:*** If you hold your shares in street name, you should provide instructions to your bank or broker on how you wish your vote to be recorded by following the instructions on your voting instruction form supplied to you by your bank or broker with these proxy materials.

#### Can I vote by Internet?
Yes. If you are a shareholder of record, see the Internet voting instructions provided on the Notice or proxy card. If you are a beneficial owner, see the voting instruction card provided by your bank, broker or other nominee.

#### Can I vote by telephone?
If you are a shareholder of record, you cannot vote by telephone. If you are a beneficial owner, see the voting instruction card provided by your broker, bank or other nominee for telephone voting instructions.

#### If my shares are held in "street name" by my broker, will my broker vote my shares for me?
We recommend that you contact your broker. Your broker can give you directions on how to instruct the broker to vote your shares. If you have not provided instructions to the broker, your broker will be able to vote your shares with respect to "routine" matters but not "non-routine" matters pursuant to New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") rules. We believe the following agenda items will be considered non-routine under NYSE rules and therefore your broker will not be able to vote your shares with respect to these agenda items unless the broker receives appropriate instructions from you: Non-Routine Proposals: Agenda Item No. 1 (Election of Directors) and Agenda Item No. 3 (Advisory Vote to Approve Named Executive Officer Compensation).

#### What will happen if I don't vote my shares?
If you are a shareholder of record and you do not vote electronically or sign and return a proxy card with votes indicated, no votes will be cast on your behalf on any of the items of business at the meeting. If you are a shareholder of record and you return a signed proxy card but make no specific direction as to how your shares are to be voted, the proxy will vote your shares in accordance with the general instruction "FOR" each of the director nominees and "FOR" each of the other agenda items (including each subpart thereof) and in accordance with the recommendation of the Board of Directors.

If you are a beneficial shareholder and you do not provide voting instructions to your bank or broker, subject to any contractual arrangements, your bank or broker may vote your shares in its discretion on all Routine agenda items but not Non-Routine Proposals. We believe that Agenda Item No. 1 (Election of Directors) and Agenda Item No. 3 (Advisory Vote to Approve Named Executive Officer Compensation) are non-routine proposals and no votes will be cast on your behalf on Agenda Items No. 1 and No. 3.

#### How many shares can vote at the Annual General Meeting?
Our ordinary shares are our only class of voting stock. As of January 8, 2026, there were 293,535,486 ordinary shares issued and outstanding and entitled to vote. Shares duly represented at the Annual General Meeting will be entitled to one vote per share for each matter presented at the Annual General Meeting.

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

#### What quorum is required for the Annual General Meeting?
The presence, in person or by proxy, of two or more holders representing at least the majority of the ordinary shares entitled to vote constitutes a quorum for the conduct of business at the Annual General Meeting.

#### How do I attend the Annual General Meeting?
For admission to the meeting, shareholders and their authorized representatives must bring a valid

government-issued photo identification, such as a driver's license or a passport. Shareholders of record with voting rights should bring the Notice they have received to the check-in area, where their ownership will be verified. Those who have beneficial ownership of ordinary shares held by a bank, brokerage firm or other nominee which has voting rights must bring to the check-in area a valid proxy from their banks, brokers or nominees showing that they own TE Connectivity ordinary shares as of the close of business (Eastern Standard Time) on January 8, 2026.

Registration at the meeting will begin at 1:00 p.m., GMT and close at 1:45 p.m., GMT, and the meeting will begin at 2:00 p.m., GMT. See "— How do I vote if I am a shareholder of record?" and "—How do I vote if I am a beneficial shareholder?" for a discussion of who is eligible and how to vote in person at the Annual General Meeting.

Security measures will be in place at the meeting to help ensure the safety of attendees. Cameras, sound recording devices, signs, photographs and visual displays are not permitted in the meeting without the prior permission of TE Connectivity. We reserve the right to inspect bags, backpacks, briefcases or other packages brought to the meeting. Cell phones and other sound transmitting devices must be turned off during the meeting.

#### What vote is required for approval of each agenda item and what is the effect of broker non-votes and abstentions?
The following agenda items require the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast at the Annual General Meeting, whether in person or by proxy. A majority means at least half plus one additional vote of the votes which are cast at a general meeting of shareholders.

● Agenda Item No. 1: Election of thirteen (13) director nominees proposed by the Board of Directors;

● Agenda Item No. 2: To ratify the appointment of Deloitte & Touche LLP as the independent auditors of the Company and Deloitte Ireland LLP as our statutory auditor under Irish law and to authorize the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors to set the auditors' remuneration;

● Agenda Item No. 3: Advisory Vote to Approve Named Executive Officer Compensation ("Say on Pay"); and

● Agenda Item No. 4: To authorize the company and/or any subsidiary of the company to make market purchases of company shares.

The following agenda item requires the affirmative vote of 75% of the votes cast at the Annual General Meeting, whether in person or by proxy:

● Agenda Item No. 5: Determine the price range at which the company can re-allot treasury shares.

Ordinary shares which are represented by broker non-votes (which occur when a broker holding shares for a beneficial owner does not vote on a particular agenda item because the broker does not have discretionary voting power for that particular item and has not received instructions from the beneficial owner) and ordinary shares which are cast as abstentions on any matter, are counted towards the determination of a quorum but will not be counted as a vote cast and will be disregarded and have no effect on the proposal.

#### Who will count the votes and certify the results?
An independent vote tabulator will count the votes. A representative of Broadridge Financial Solutions has been appointed by the Board of Directors as the independent inspector of election and will determine the existence of a quorum, validity of proxies, and certify the results of the voting.

#### NOMINEES FOR ELECTION

#### Qualifications of Nominees Recommended by the Board of Directors
TE promotes a high performing culture through highly engaged employees who are both inclusive and open to diverse perspectives, fostering TE's purpose of creating a safer, sustainable, productive and connected future. The Company's Board Governance Principles require that the Board as a whole is constituted to be strong in its collective knowledge of and diversity of experience in accounting and finance, management and leadership, vision and strategy, business operations, business judgment, crisis management, risk assessment, industry knowledge, corporate governance and global markets. The Nominating, Governance and Compliance Committee designs searches for candidates to fill vacancies on the board and makes recommendations for director nominations to the board. When preparing to search for a new director, the Committee takes into account the experience, qualifications, skills and expertise of the board's current members. The Committee seeks candidates who have a history of achievement and leadership and are experienced in areas relevant to the Company's business such as international trade, finance, technology, manufacturing processes and marketing. The Committee also considers independence, as defined by applicable law, stock exchange listing standards and the categorical standards listed in the Company's Board Governance Principles, which are set forth in the "Board Organization and Independence of its Members" section of the Principles, and which can be found on the Company's website at www.te.com under About TE – Executive Team – Board Documents.

To assist with determining the needs of the board, the Nominating, Governance and Compliance Committee developed and maintains a Diversity and Skills Matrix to assist in the consideration of the appropriate balance of experience, skills and attributes required of a director and to be represented on the board of directors as a whole. The Diversity and Skills Matrix is based on the Company's strategic plan and is reviewed and updated by the Board on a regular basis. The Nominating, Governance and Compliance Committee evaluates candidates against the Diversity and Skills Matrix when determining whether to recommend candidates for initial election to the Board of Directors and when determining whether to recommend currently serving directors for re-election. In addition, our Board considers director tenure in connection with evaluating current directors for nomination for re-election. It is the general policy of the Board not to nominate directors who have reached the age of 72 for re-election, although the Board may determine to waive this policy in individual cases. See "Board Retirement Policy" below for additional information.

The professional experience, qualifications, skills and expertise of each nominee is set forth immediately below and in the director Diversity and Skills Matrix that follows the Board's biographies. The Board and the Company believe that all nominees possess additional qualities, business knowledge and personal attributes valuable to their service on the Board and that all have demonstrated commitment to ethical and moral values and personal and professional integrity.

The Board of Directors has concluded that the experience, qualifications, skills and expertise of each director nominee qualifies each nominee to serve as a director of the Company.

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

**Director Skill Set Considerations; Use of Matrix**

In recruiting and selecting Board candidates, the Nominating, Governance and Compliance Committee takes into account the size of the Board and considers a skills matrix. This skills matrix helps the Committee determine whether a particular Board member or candidate possesses one or more of the skill sets, as well as whether those skills and/or other attributes qualify him or her for service on a particular committee. The Committee also considers a wide range of additional factors, including other positions the Director or candidate holds, including other boards of directors on which he or she serves; the results of the Board and Committee assessments; each Director's and candidate's projected retirement date; the independence of each Director and candidate; and the Company's current and future business needs.

**Commitment to Inclusion**

The Company is committed to a strategy of inclusiveness and to pursuing diversity in terms of viewpoints, backgrounds, and experiences, as well as diversity regarding gender, race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, national origin and underrepresented groups. The Company believes that it benefits from having directors with these traits. Of the thirteen directors nominated to serve on the Board at the Annual General Meeting, four identify as women, two identify as African American, one identifies as LGBTQ+ and four identify as ethnically or geographically diverse or born outside the United States. The Board Governance Principles and the NGCC charter require candidates for the Board, among other things, to have the highest standards of individual and corporate integrity and trust and individual backgrounds that provide a portfolio of diverse experience, backgrounds and knowledge commensurate with the Company's needs.

The Board is committed to using the refreshment process to strengthen inclusion on the Board. To accomplish this, the Nominating, Governance and Compliance Committee requires in all cases that director search firms engaged by the Company include a selection of women and ethnically diverse candidates in prospective director candidate pools. In addition, the Nominating, Governance and Compliance Committee is committed to interviewing women and ethnically diverse candidates for future vacancies on the Board.

**Board Self-Assessment**

A self-assessment of the Board and its Committees is conducted annually.

*Annual Self-Assessment*

● The self-assessment seeks to identify specific areas, if any, in need of improvement or strengthening, including with respect to the diversity of our Board in terms of viewpoints, backgrounds and experiences

● The self-assessment is conducted with each individual director by the General Counsel and a member of the NGCC

*Self-Assessment Questions*

● After the September NGCC meeting, the General Counsel sends a list of questions to the Board members on the subject of the functioning of the Board and Committees to be discussed during one-on-one interviews

*One-on-One Discussions*

#### Shareholder Recommendations
The NGCC will consider all shareholder recommendations for candidates for the Board, which should be sent to the Nominating, Governance and Compliance Committee, c/o Harold G. Barksdale, Secretary, TE Connectivity plc, Parkmore Business Park West, Parkmore, Ballybrit, Galway, H91VN2T, Ireland. In addition to considering candidates suggested by shareholders, the Committee considers candidates recommended by current directors, Company officers, employees and others. The Committee screens all candidates in the same manner regardless of the source of the recommendation. The Committee's review is typically based on any written materials provided with respect to the candidate. The Committee determines whether the candidate meets the Company's general qualifications and specific qualities and skills for directors (see "Qualifications of Nominees Recommended by the Board of Directors" above) and whether requesting additional information or an interview is appropriate.

---

The NGCC reviews the Board's organization annually and recommends appropriate changes to the Board. The Board determines the appropriate leadership structure for the Company. Annually, the NGCC coordinates an evaluation and assessment of the Board's performance and leadership.

Mr. Davidson has served as Chairman of the Board of Directors since March 2024. The Board determined that Mr. Davidson's deep knowledge of the Company's operations, strategy and risk management practices and appreciation of the principal challenges and opportunities facing the Company, as well as his tenure on the Board, position him well to serve as Chairman.

The Board is comprised of a substantial majority of independent directors and all directors are annually elected by a majority of share votes cast at the Annual General Meeting of shareholders.

#### Board Oversight of Risk Management
The Board of Directors is responsible for appraising the Company's major risks and overseeing that appropriate risk management and control procedures are in place. The Board must understand the risks facing the Company as a function of its strategy, provide oversight of the processes put in place to identify and manage risk (for example, in relation to executive compensation and succession) that only the Board is positioned to manage. The Board is responsible for determining that senior executives take the appropriate steps to manage all major risks. Management has day-to-day responsibility for assessing and managing the Company's particular exposures to risk.

The Audit Committee of the Board meets to review and discuss, as determined to be appropriate, with management, the internal auditor and the independent registered public accounting firm:

● the Company's major financial and accounting risk exposures and related policies and practices to assess and control such exposures,

● overseeing risks related to privacy, and

● assist the Board in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities regarding the Company's policies and guidelines with respect to risk assessment and risk management.

2026 Annual General Meeting Proxy Statement 33

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

The Management Development and Compensation Committee reviews the Company's risks related to:

● chief executive officer succession plans for senior executives,

● overall compensation structure,

● incentive compensation plans and equity-based plans,

● policies and programs, severance programs, change-of-control agreements and benefit programs,

● human capital management, and

● meets, as appropriate, with the internal and/or external auditors to discuss management and employee compliance with the compensation, incentive, severance and other benefit programs and policies under the committee's jurisdiction.

The Nominating, Governance and Compliance Committee reviews the Company's policies and risks related to:

● related person transactions required to be disclosed pursuant to U.S. securities rules,

● identifying and recommending individuals qualified to become Board members, consistent with criteria approved by the Board,

● developing and recommending to the Board a set of corporate governance principles applicable to the Company,

● overseeing the evaluation of the Board,

● the effectiveness of the Company's environmental, health and safety management program,

● the Company's enterprise-wide risk assessment processes, and

● the Company's compliance programs.

The Joint Committee on Cybersecurity assists the Board with its oversight of the Company's cybersecurity program and risks:

● review the Company's information technology and security risk exposures and related policies and practices to assess and control such exposures, assist the Board in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities regarding the Company's information technology and security policies and processes with respect to risk assessment and risk management,

● review the Company's adoption and implementation of systems, controls and procedures designed to prevent, detect and respond to cybersecurity attacks or security breaches involving the Company,

● review updates regarding the Company's cybersecurity threat landscape, and

● review the plans and methodology for the periodic assessment of the Company's cybersecurity program.

The Board's role in risk oversight of the Company is consistent with the Company's leadership structure, with the CEO and other members of senior management having responsibility for assessing and managing the Company's risk exposure, and the Board and its committees providing oversight in connection with those efforts.

#### Director Independence

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Board has determined that eleven of the thirteen director nominees are independent. For a director to be considered independent, the Board must make an affirmative determination that a director meets the stringent guidelines for independence set by the Board. These guidelines either meet or exceed the NYSE listing standards' independence requirements. The guidelines include a determination that the director has no current or prior material relationships with TE Connectivity (either directly or as a partner, shareholder or officer of an organization that has a relationship with the Company), aside from his or her directorship, that could affect his or her judgment.<br>The independence guidelines also include the determination that certain limits to annual sales to or purchases from entities for which a director serves as an executive officer, and limits on direct compensation from the Company for directors and certain family members (other than fees paid for board or committee service), are not exceeded and other restrictions. | &nbsp;&nbsp;<br>![Graphic](tel-20260311xdef14a_a050.jpg)<br>|

---

Based on the review and recommendation by the Nominating, Governance and Compliance Committee, the Board analyzed the independence of each director nominee and determined that the following director nominees meet the standards of independence under our director independence guidelines and applicable NYSE listing standards, and that each of them is free of any relationship that would interfere with his or her individual exercise of independent judgment: Jean-Pierre Clamadieu, Carol A. ("John") Davidson, Lynn A. Dugle, Sam Eldessouky, William A. Jeffrey, Syaru Shirley Lin, Abhijit Y. Talwalkar, Mark C. Trudeau, Kenneth Washington, Dawn C. Willoughby and Laura H. Wright.

The Board of Directors believes that it is important to monitor its skills and needs in the context of the Company's long-term strategic goals, and, therefore, may elect to waive the policy in individual cases as it deems appropriate.

An annual performance evaluation is conducted by the Board and each of its committees to determine whether they are functioning effectively. The Nominating, Governance and Compliance Committee plans and recommends to the Board the method of evaluation. In 2025, the Company's General Counsel was appointed by the Board to gather information from directors through individual discussions and interviews and to report results back to the Board and Nominating, Governance and Compliance Committee for consideration of actions to be taken as a result of the evaluation.

#### Board Committees
The Board has adopted written charters for each of its committees: the Audit Committee, the Management Development and Compensation Committee, the Nominating, Governance and Compliance Committee and the Joint Committee on Cybersecurity.

Non-management directors' compensation is established collaboratively by the Nominating, Governance and Compliance and the Management Development and Compensation Committees. Compensation of non-management directors in fiscal year 2025 is described under "Compensation of Non-Employee Directors."

#### Non-Management Directors' Stock Ownership
To help align Board and shareholder interests, directors are encouraged to own, at a minimum, TE Connectivity stock or stock units equal to five times the annual cash retainer (a total of $625,000, based on the fiscal year 2025 $125,000 annual cash retainer) within five years of joining the Board. Once a director satisfies the minimum stock ownership recommendation, the director will remain qualified, regardless of market fluctuations, under the guidelines unless the director sells shares of stock that were considered in determining that the ownership amount was met. Each non-employee director receives TE Connectivity shares as the $200,000 equity component of their compensation. As of fiscal 2025 year-end, all of the directors then serving met, or in the case of Mr. Eldessouky, are on track to meeting, their stock ownership requirements.

The MDCC approves compensation decisions for TE's executive officers, while compensation decisions for the Chief Executive Officer are also subject to approval by the full Board of Directors.

#### COMPENSATION ELEMENTS AND PAY DETERMINATION

#### Executive Compensation Philosophy
Our executive compensation philosophy calls for competitive total compensation that will reward executives for achieving individual and corporate performance objectives and will attract, motivate and retain leaders who will drive the creation of shareholder value. The MDCC reviews and administers the compensation and benefit programs for executive officers, including the named executive officers, and performs an annual assessment of the Company's executive compensation policy. In determining total compensation, the MDCC considers the objectives and attributes described below.

50 2026 Annual General Meeting Proxy Statement

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

#### Executive Compensation Principles

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| &nbsp;&nbsp;***Shareholderalignment*** | &nbsp;&nbsp;– Designed with consideration of shareholder feedback and governance best practices to ensure alignment with investor expectations and the Company's pay-for-performance philosophy.<br>– Long-term incentive awards, delivered in the form of equity, make up a significant percentage of our executives' total compensation and closely align the interests of executives with the long-term interests of our shareholders. |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;***Performancebased*** | &nbsp;&nbsp;– Designed to ensure pay realized by our leaders varies with company performance, individual performance, and the shareholder experience over time.<br>– Annual cash incentive awards are tied to overall corporate, segment or business unit measures that are tailored to the characteristics and priorities of our business units. These measures are aligned with the Company's guidance, annual operating and strategic plans, and focus on year-over-year improvement.<br>– Long-term incentive awards are designed to reward our executive officers for creating long-term shareholder value. Long-term incentive awards are granted primarily in the form of stock options and performance stock units |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;***Appropriate risk*** | &nbsp;&nbsp;– Designed to encourage executive officers to take appropriate risks in managing their businesses to achieve optimal performance<br>– Oversee and review annually the results of the assessment of risks related to the Company's compensation policies and programs for officers and employees |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;***Competitive withexternal talentmarkets*** | &nbsp;&nbsp;– Designed to ensure that our programs are competitive within the relevant markets for leadership talent<br>– As one input to developing and assessing the continued appropriateness of executive pay programs that meet our specific objectives, we consider the practices of other companies with which we compete for talent, business and capital<br>– To provide balanced context, we consider compensation and governance practices drawn from a group of electronics and related industry companies that align with our business segments (our "Industry Peer Group") as well as from the broader market within which we compete for executive talent. Additional market samples are also referenced to meet unique circumstances where appropriate |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;***Focus onexecutive stockownership*** | &nbsp;&nbsp;– Designed to ensure that our leaders own stock and directly align their long-term financial interests with all other shareholders<br>– The TE Connectivity Stock Ownership and Retention Requirement Plan, together with long-term equity awards, drives executive stock ownership<br>– The CEO is required to hold shares equal to six times his base salary, and the other named executive officers are required to hold shares equal to three times their respective base salaries |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;***Simple andtransparent*** | &nbsp;&nbsp;– Designed to ensure both our leaders and external stakeholders understand our priorities and expectations<br>– Our executive compensation programs are designed to be readily understood by our executives, and transparent to our investors |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;***Fair andEquitable*** | &nbsp;&nbsp;– Designed to deliver fair and equitable pay based on roles and responsibilities and on company and individual performance, regardless of gender, race/ethnicity or any other individual demographics |

---

#### Industry Peer Group
As part of its oversight of executive compensation, the MDCC periodically reviews market data to ensure that pay levels, mix, and practices for senior executives remain competitive and aligned with shareholder interests.

The foundation of this market data is TE's Industry Peer Group, which is established by the MDCC with input from Pay Governance, its independent compensation consultant. This peer group consists of companies within the electronics and related industries that are aligned with TE's business segments. Companies are

2026 Annual General Meeting Proxy Statement 51

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

selected based on factors such as revenue size, market capitalization, product offerings, geographic presence, and the extent to which we compete for executive talent.

The MDCC reviews and approves the peer group annually to ensure it remains a balanced and relevant reference for evaluating executive compensation. The peer group serves as the primary benchmark for assessing pay levels for our CEO, CFO, and Board of Directors, evaluating plan design features, award decisions, and conducting pay-for-performance analyses.

Following this year's review, no changes were made to the peer group, as it continues to be considered reasonable and appropriate.

For fiscal year 2025, the Industry Peer Group includes 21 companies, with publicly disclosed annual revenues ranging from $6.2 billion to $49.2 billion, and a median of $17.6 billion, as shown below:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| **3M Company** | Eaton Corporation | NXP Semiconductors N.V. |
| **Amphenol Corporation** | Emerson Electric Co. | Parker-Hannifin Corporation |
| **Aptiv PLC** | Fortive Corporation | Rockwell Automation Inc. |
| **Carrier Global Corporation** | General Dynamics Corporation | Stanley Black & Decker Inc. |
| **Corning Inc.** | Honeywell International Inc. | Texas Instruments Inc. |
| **Cummins Inc.** | Illinois Tool Works Inc. | Textron Inc. |
| **Dover Corporation** | Johnson Controls International plc | Trane Technologies plc |

---

Because robust data are only available for select executive leadership positions among the Industry Peer Group companies, our compensation consultant also provides the MDCC with additional third-party compensation market data (e.g., Willis Towers Watson) for a cross-industry sample of companies within a reasonable size range of TE.

#### Determining Executive Compensation
In determining the appropriate total compensation level for each executive officer, the MDCC considers the following items:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| &nbsp;&nbsp;***Role*** | &nbsp;&nbsp;-<br>Responsibilities, scope, and complexity of the executive's role relative to external benchmark data<br>-<br>Relative importance of the role within TE Connectivity<br>|
| &nbsp;&nbsp;***Comprehensive Market Analysis*** | &nbsp;&nbsp;-<br>Comprehensive analysis of current base salary, target annual incentive opportunity, target long term incentive opportunity, target total cash compensation (base salary and target annual incentive), and target total direct compensation for each executive officer<br>|
| &nbsp;&nbsp;***Performance*** | &nbsp;&nbsp;-<br>Each executive's individual performance, level of experience and expected contribution to strategic initiatives and future results<br>|
| &nbsp;&nbsp;***Current Compensation*** | &nbsp;&nbsp;-<br>A review of the executive's current total direct compensation including internal pay equity and compensation history<br>|
| &nbsp;&nbsp;***CEO Recommendations*** | &nbsp;&nbsp;-<br>The Chief Executive Officer's detailed performance assessments for the other executive officers and recommendations concerning compensation actions<br>|

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

#### Compensation Assessment
The compensation assessment for executive officers is reviewed by the MDCC on sheets, which summarize the officer's current compensation, actual pay compared to the market, compensation history, and performance achievements. This approach enables the MDCC to understand how compensation has changed over time and the impact of performance on total compensation.

With the information provided in the total compensation assessment as a reference, and with the input of the compensation consultant and the Chief Executive Officer, the MDCC makes compensation determinations (both regarding incentive award payouts for performance and target compensation opportunity for the coming year) for each of our executive officers. The MDCC and the Board follow a similar process to set compensation for the Chief Executive Officer. In some years, the MDCC may determine that total compensation (or one or more components of total compensation) for a particular executive should differ (higher or lower) from the market reference point(s) for various reasons (e.g., recent promotion, performance assessment, special assignments or responsibilities that vary from a typical role in the market, etc). Similarly, from time-to-time based on circumstances, the MDCC may approve a total compensation package or individual compensation components that exceed the market reference point(s) for a critical management role in order to attract a highly qualified external candidate.

*Annual Cash Incentive Awards*

The Annual Incentive Program (AIP) is designed to focus executive officers on achieving financial and strategic priorities and reward them for performance against pre-established goals at the corporate, sector or segment level; final payouts also may be modified to reflect the MDCC's assessment of individual or company performance beyond these goals. Generally, the MDCC intends the annual incentive award program to provide market competitive (generally median) payouts for achieving pre-determined, target performance goals.

In response to continued macroeconomic uncertainty and industry-specific challenges - including the evolving tariff environment, ongoing supply chain disruptions, and broader geopolitical and market volatility - the Company maintained a two-interval performance measurement approach for the fiscal year 2025 annual incentive program.

We believe this structure allows for performance to be assessed across two distinct periods within the fiscal year, while maintaining a single payout at year-end. The approach provides greater flexibility to account for external volatility and timing shifts in business impact, while continuing to reinforce accountability and alignment with strategic objectives.

In the first quarter of fiscal 2025, the MDCC established:

● Performance Criteria for the first half of the year: applicable threshold, target and maximum performance criteria for each financial performance metric for the first half of the year required to earn threshold, target and maximum bonus awards; no bonus is earned for performance below threshold on any metric and payouts vary proportionally based on actual performance achieved;

● Key Performance Indicator (KPI) metric – established the annual KPI metric for the year;

● Annual Individual Target Bonus Opportunity: a percent of each executive officer's salary, established by the MDCC as part of the fiscal year 2025 Compensation Assessment.

In the third quarter of fiscal 2025, the MDCC established the threshold, target and maximum performance criteria for each financial performance metric for the second half of the year required to earn threshold, target and maximum bonus awards; no bonus is earned for performance below threshold on any metric and payouts vary proportionally based on actual performance achieved.

*Target Bonus Percentages*

The target bonus percentages for the named executive officers for fiscal year 2025 are listed below.

|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **Fiscal 2025 Target** | **Fiscal 2024 Target** |

| Mr. Stucki | 95% | 85% |
| Mr. Kroeger | 95% | 95% |
| Mr. Jenkins | 85% | 85% |

*Performance Measures*

Each year, the MDCC reviews and approves the performance measures used in the annual incentive program for both the Company and its business segments. These measures are carefully selected to align with the strategic objectives of each business, ensure an appropriate balance of priorities, and mitigate the potential for excessive risk-taking.

The AIP emphasizes key operational and financial metrics that drive profitability, sustainable growth, and operational excellence. For fiscal year 2025, the program continues to focus on Earnings Per Share (EPS), revenue, operating income, and KPIs - all of which are directly aligned with our strategic priorities and long-term value creation goals.

These metrics are designed to reflect management's ability to deliver measurable results while enabling reinvestment in initiatives that support the Company's future success. The MDCC regularly evaluates the rigor, relevance, and competitiveness of these measures to ensure they remain aligned with shareholder interests and evolving business needs.

In fiscal year 2025, the MDCC took into account key challenges in the Company's end markets, including a slower global automotive production environment and an inventory correction in industrial automation and Medical markets when setting performance targets. In addition global tariffs were introduced in the second half of the fiscal year and continuously fluctuated. A key goal of the annual incentive plan was the expansion of operating income and related margins, even in the face of these anticipated market pressures and changes in the global trade environment.

| Key Performance Indicator ("KPI")<sup>(3)</sup> | 20% | 20% | 20% |

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) In setting the target for the EPS metric, the MDCC uses the EPS target established for the Company in its financial plan, which incorporates various assumptions to delivering earnings growth including the effect of planned share repurchases by the Company. In determining the EPS metric achievement each year, the MDCC considers whether the various assumptions used to set the EPS target (including the effect of share repurchases) were materially accurate, and to the extent the achievement levels are not consistent with assumptions, the MDCC will make adjustments to the achievement level as deemed appropriate.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) Each segment's results are the roll up of its underlying sectors and business units' results, while corporate level results are the roll up of all sector and business units' results. For fiscal year 2025 business units could request to use either operating income % or operating income $ as a performance metric. A Quality of Earnings modifier is used as an additional adjustment factor for Operating Income achievement in fiscal year 2025. The modifier focused on inventory performance versus target and delivering earnings and free cash flow.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) Corporate KPI is the revenue-weighted average of the KPI scores for the segments. At the Business Unit level, the KPI metric reflects growth, productivity, quality, or customer delivery, as appropriate for the key initiatives of the year.

For purposes of the annual incentive program, all of the financial metrics are adjusted financial measures (i.e., they do not conform to Accounting Principles Generally Accepted in the U.S.) that exclude the effects of events deemed not to reflect the actual performance of our employees. For fiscal year 2025, the adjustments to EPS, revenue and operating income, as applicable, were as follows (i) exclusion of acquisition-related charges, (ii) exclusion of net restructuring and other charges, (iii) exclusion of the impact of certain acquisitions and divestitures, (iv) exclusion of the impact of changes resulting from foreign currency exchange rates (with respect to performance measures), (v) exclusion of certain corporate allocations (with respect to performance measures at the business unit level), and (vi) exclusion of income tax expense related to a net increase in the valuation allowance for certain deferred tax assets associated with a ten-year tax credit obtained by a Swiss subsidiary in fiscal 2024 as well as income tax expense related to an increase in the valuation allowance for certain U.S. tax loss and credit carryforwards.

Non-GAAP adjustments are annually reviewed by the MDCC, consistently applied year over year and align with the Company's external financial reporting practices. Adjustments are designed to provide a clear and objective measurement of management's contribution to sustainable operational performance, excluding external or one-time impacts. For example, the exclusion of foreign exchange fluctuations ensures incentive payouts reflect operational achievements rather than uncontrollable currency movements, aligning with shareholder value creation. There were no unplanned/one-time adjustments that had a material impact on payouts.

In setting the performance criteria for fiscal year 2025, the MDCC ensured alignment with the Company's operating plan, which incorporates assumptions across the markets in which the Company operates. For 2025, these assumptions reflected continued macroeconomic uncertainty and uneven demand across industrial end-markets, partially offset by growth opportunities in sectors benefiting from long-term secular trends, such as electrification, data connectivity, and energy infrastructure. The operating plan anticipated margin expansion over the course of the year, supported by structural efficiency initiatives, while also absorbing the impact of a higher effective tax rate. These factors were taken into account in setting financial performance targets that are intended to remain rigorous, aligned with long-term shareholder value creation, and motivating in a complex operating environment.

---

\*&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;For performance on an individual metric (other than KPIs) that significantly exceeds the maximum goal, the MDCC, in its discretion, may recognize these exceptional results with a payout for that metric of up to 300% of target. Payouts are capped at 100% of target if operating income results are less than target. Regardless of payouts on individual metrics, the aggregate total award payout earned by an individual executive can never exceed 200% of target.

For executive officers, annual incentive payouts are based solely on company and business segment performance as shown above. No individual performance metrics were assigned to any executive officer under the fiscal year 2025 annual incentive program. The MDCC reserved the discretion to adjust individual or business unit award amounts up or down, based on its evaluation of the individual or business unit performance during the fiscal year. In addition, there is a reserve pool of 10% of the total target annual incentive award pool amount that, with the MDCC's approval, can be used by the CEO to reward exceptional performance at either the business unit or individual level, regardless of performance results against the established financial measures.

*Annual Incentive Payments for Fiscal 2025*

Fiscal year 2025 performance targets, actual attainment, and corresponding annual incentive award results at the corporate level and for the Industrial Solutions and Transportation Solutions business segments for the named executive officers were as follows:

\* Specific key performance indicator metrics for fiscal year 2025 were not assigned at the Company's Corporate Level or at the Industrial Solutions and Transportation Solutions Segments Level's. The Industrial Solutions and Transportation Solutions key performance indicator bonus score is the revenue weighted average of each of their respective business units' key performance indicator metric scores. In setting the key performance indicator metrics for each business unit, the Company established targets that represented improvement over performance levels attained in fiscal year 2024 and that were deemed to be difficult to attain assuring strong performance and anticipated economic conditions. The Corporate Level bonus score for the key performance indicator metric is the revenue weighted average of the key performance indicator metric scores for the business segments. The Company has determined that disclosure of the target performance levels and performance results for the key performance indicator metrics for Industrial Solutions, Transportation Solutions and Corporate Level would result in competitive harm.

\*\* The bonus score is calculated based on the level of performance attained relative to the threshold, target and maximum described above for each performance measure.

Messrs. Curtin, Mitts and Jenkins received fiscal year 2025 annual incentive payouts based on the corporate bonus score of 132.4%.

Mr. Stucki's fiscal year 2025 annual incentive payout was based on the Transportation Solutions bonus score of 126.8%. Mr. Kroeger's fiscal year 2025 annual incentive payout was based on the Industrial Solutions bonus score of 167.1%.

In setting performance targets under the annual incentive plan, the MDCC considered a range of internal and external factors, including the company's strategic objectives and prevailing market conditions. For fiscal year 2025, aggregate full-year targets at the corporate level were above prior year actual results, consistent with the company's focus on sustained performance improvement. At the segment level, certain targets in the Transportation Solutions segment were set below prior year actuals, reflecting the impact of macroeconomic headwinds affecting specific business units including a slower global automotive production environment. At the corporate and segment levels, management exceeded these targets, delivering strong results in key areas including sales, operating margin, earnings per share, and free cash flow. The MDCC

2026 Annual General Meeting Proxy Statement 57

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

believes the above-target payouts appropriately recognize this strong execution and reinforce alignment between the Annual Incentive Plan and shareholder value creation in both favorable and challenging conditions.

For fiscal year 2026, TE will retain the current AIP design, which features two performance periods for financial metrics and a single payout at year-end. This structure enables the MDCC to adjust performance targets mid-year in response to evolving global market conditions – whether positive or negative – including shifts in automotive production, industrial demand cycles, and supply chain normalization. The two-period model ensures that performance targets remain rigorous, strategically aligned, and responsive to dynamic external environments. The MDCC remains committed to maintaining an AIP framework that incentivizes sustainable operational execution and appropriately rewards outcomes that drive long-term shareholder value.

Long-Term Incentive Awards

The Company uses equity-based long-term incentive awards in the form of performance stock units ("PSUs") and stock options ("SO") to focus leaders on long-term priorities, support stock ownership, and deliver competitive, performance-based compensation that varies with company financial and share price performance. Consistent with our compensation philosophy, the MDCC sets the fair value of these annual equity-based long-term incentive awards to be competitive with our peer groups and designs the plans to deliver compensation at the high end of the market if our stock performs particularly well and at the low end of the market if our stock performance is weak. The PSU program uses relative EPS growth as the key metric to align management incentives with profitability per share compared to a relevant peer group. The Board believes that consistent long-term EPS growth outperformance directly contributes to long-term TSR outperformance and provides a more actionable and tangible measure of performance for executives than metrics like relative TSR used by others. This approach reflects the Board's strong focus on shareholder value creation and has historically served the Company and its shareholders well.

Combined with stock options that reflect share price appreciation, this structure ensures the long-term incentive program drives behaviors that maximize long-term shareholder value. The PSU program also reflects a philosophy of median pay for median performance, with payouts below median for underperformance and above median for outperformance, ensuring a direct alignment with shareholder outcomes and the Company's pay-for-performance philosophy.

For purposes of the PSU program, EPS is calculated in the same manner as is used in the annual incentive program, as described in further detail on page 55.

The following table describes the general terms and conditions of the fiscal 2025 grants:

#### POLICIES AND PRACTICES

#### Executive Stock Ownership Requirements
The Company maintains a Stock Ownership and Retention Requirement Plan applicable to all senior executive officers, including the named executive officers. The stock ownership requirement varies by position ranging in value from three to six times the executive's base salary as follows:

---

| |
|:---|
| &nbsp;&nbsp;**Position** |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;CEO<br> &nbsp;&nbsp;6x |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;CFO and Other Senior Executives<br> &nbsp;&nbsp;3x |

---

Stock ownership requirements must be met within five years of the officer's date of employment or promotion into a leadership role. In the event stock ownership has not been met in the five year timeframe, the employee will be required to hold 100% of the TE Connectivity shares they receive upon lapse of the restrictions on restricted stock/stock units and upon exercise of stock options (net of any shares utilized to pay for the exercise price of the option and tax withholding). The following shares count toward the ownership requirements: wholly owned shares, shares in stock units, employee stock ownership plans, unvested restricted stock, and shares held by immediate family members that are considered beneficially owned by the executive officer. As of fiscal 2025 -year end, all the named executive officers have met their stock ownership requirements.

#### Termination Payments
Under the employment contracts, named executive officers whose employment is terminated involuntarily for any reason other than cause, permanent disability or death or who voluntarily resign their employment for "good reason" within 12 months of the occurrence of a change in control will have a notice period of up to 12 months. The following table describes treatment during and at the end of the notice period:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| &nbsp;&nbsp;**Time Period** | **Treatment during the Time Period** |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;**During the 12-month notice period(treated as regular full-time employee)** | <br>-<br>Continue to receive base salary<br>-<br>Eligibility for bonus (subject to terms and conditions of the applicable plan)<br>-<br>Continued vesting in outstanding equity awards (under terms and conditions of the applicable award agreements); and continued health and welfare benefits.<br>|
| &nbsp;&nbsp;**At the end of the 12-month noticeperiod** | <br>-<br>Receives twelve months' pay as consideration for non-compete and non-solicitation covenants in favor of the Company<br>|

---

In the event of involuntary or "good reason" termination after a change in control under our TE Stock and Incentive Plan, outstanding equity will be treated as follows:

● PSUs will vest in full at target performance and stock options and RSUs will become fully vested in the event of a qualifying termination.

Termination treatment as described above and other benefits payable as a result of a qualifying termination after a change in control will be limited to the greater after tax amount resulting from (i) payment of the full benefits, followed by the imposition of all taxes, including any applicable excise taxes under Internal Revenue Code Section 280G, or (ii) payment of the full benefits up to the Section 280G limit with no excise tax imposed. Termination and other benefits payable will not be grossed up to reflect Section 280G or any other taxes.

#### Insider Trading Policy
We have adopted insider trading policies governing transactions in our securities by our named executive officers, employees, and directors, as well as TE Connectivity itself, which we believe are reasonably designed to promote compliance with insider trading laws, rules, and regulations, and the listing standards of the New York Stock Exchange. Among other things, our insider trading policies restrict the times during which executive officers, directors and selected employees privy to confidential information can enter into trading transactions concerning our securities. In addition, our officers, employees and members of our Board of Directors are prohibited from engaging in any hedging transactions, including but not limited to, prepaid variable forward contracts, equity swaps, collars, exchange funds, puts, calls, options, short sales or similar rights, obligations or transactions that are designed to hedge or offset any decrease in the market value of TE Connectivity securities.

Our insider trading policies also include prohibition against pledging. Executive officers and directors are prohibited from holding TE Connectivity securities in a margin account and from maintaining or entering into any arrangement that, directly or indirectly, involves the pledge of TE Connectivity securities or other use of TE Connectivity securities as collateral for a loan.

Our insider trading policies are incorporated by reference as exhibits to our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on November 10, 2025.

**Equity Award Timing Policies and Practices**

We maintain an Equity Granting Policy applicable to all awards of equity-based compensation, including stock options, granted by TE Connectivity. As part of the policy, annual equity awards, including stock option awards, are generally granted to our executives and employees during the open trading window period within the first fiscal quarter of each fiscal year, and awards of ordinary shares to non-employee directors will generally be made annually during the first fiscal quarter of each fiscal year. The MDCC (or our Board of Directors, if to our chief executive officer) also may consider and approve interim or mid-year grants, or grants made on another basis, from time to time based on business needs, new hires, promotions, retention, changing compensation practices or other factors, in the discretion of the MDCC (or our Board of Directors, if to our chief executive officer).

We do not permit timed disclosure of material non-public information for the purpose of affecting the value of executive compensation, including stock option or similar equity awards, and option grants or other awards are not timed in relation to the release of material non-public information. However, our management must advise the MDCC whenever it is aware of material non-public information that is planned to be released to the public in close proximity to the grant of an award.

Stock options are granted with an exercise price equal to the closing market price of our ordinary shares on the New York Stock Exchange on the date of grant.

**Clawbacks and Other Remedies for Potential Misconduct**

In accordance with the TE Connectivity plc Incentive-Based Compensation Recovery Policy, the Board will seek reimbursement from covered executive officers (which includes our NEOs) for the amount of erroneously awarded compensation (i.e., the amount of incentive-based compensation received that exceeds the amount of incentive-based compensation that otherwise would have been received had it been determined based on restated amounts) resulting from an accounting restatement due to the material noncompliance of the Company with any financial reporting requirement under the securities laws, including any required accounting restatement (i) to correct an error in previously issued financial statements that is material to the previously issued financial statements or (ii) that would result in a material misstatement if the error were corrected in the current period or left uncorrected in the current period.

Further, the Board may seek to recover from executive officers any overpayment or mistaken payment that was based on deficient financial information regardless of whether the deficit financial information resulted in a restatement. In cases of detrimental misconduct by an executive officer, the Board may also take a range of other actions to remedy the misconduct, prevent its recurrence, and discipline the individual as appropriate, including terminating the individual's employment. These remedies would be in addition to, and not in lieu of, any actions imposed by law enforcement agencies, regulators or other authorities.

#### Tax Deductibility of Executive Compensation
Prior to the enactment of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code limited the tax deduction available to a public company for annual compensation paid to certain executive officers in excess of $1 million, unless the compensation qualified as performance-based compensation or was otherwise exempt from Section 162(m). For our tax years starting on or after September 29, 2018, the exemption for performance-based compensation under Section 162(m) was repealed by the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, meaning that all compensation paid to certain executive officers in excess of $1 million will not be deductible unless the compensation qualifies for transition relief available to arrangements in place on November 2, 2017 and not modified thereafter. Annual incentive bonuses, stock options and other performance-based awards made to named executive officers and that qualify for transition relief are intended to qualify as performance-based compensation for these purposes. Our annual incentive bonus plan requires that a threshold operating income metric be met in order to satisfy the performance-based requirements of Section 162(m).

#### Risk Profile of Compensation Programs
Our executive compensation programs are structured to provide the appropriate level of incentives without encouraging executive officers to take excessive risks in managing their businesses. We performed a two-part risk assessment of the Company's compensation programs and practices in fiscal year 2025 as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1. Conducted an inventory of our executive and non-executive incentive compensation programs globally, including all significant sales incentive programs.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2. Each program was evaluated to determine whether its primary components properly balanced compensation opportunities and risk.

After considering the assessment results and the preliminary conclusions, the MDCC agreed that none of the Company's compensation programs and practices in fiscal year 2025 were reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) Amounts in columns (f) through (h) represent potential share payouts with respect to PSUs assuming threshold, target and maximum performance conditions are achieved. The "Threshold" column represents the minimum amount payable (50% of target payout) when threshold performance is met. The "Target" column represents the amount payable (100% of target payout) if the specified performance targets are reached. The "Maximum" column represents the maximum amount payable (200% of target payout). Awards vest following the conclusion of the three-year performance period which ends with the close of fiscal year 2025. See "CD&A—Compensation Elements and Pay Determination—Long-Term Incentive Awards—for additional information about these awards, including performance criteria.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) This column shows the number of RSUs granted in fiscal year 2025 to the named executive officers. There were no RSUs granted in fiscal year 2025 to the named executive officers.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4) This column shows the number of stock options granted in fiscal year 2025 to the named executive officers. Stock options issued have a ten-year term and vest ratably over a four-year period, with 25% becoming vested and exercisable on the November 15 that is at least 12 months from the grant date, and the subsequent 3-year anniversaries of the first vest date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(5) This column shows the full grant date fair value of PSUs and stock options under ASC 718 granted to the named executive officers in fiscal year 2025. For PSUs, the grant date fair value has been determined based on target performance being achieved. For additional information on the valuation assumptions, see Note 19 in the 10-K. In determining the number of PSUs and stock options that are awarded to eligible equity award participants, including each named executive officer, the Company follows an established policy under which it uses the average daily closing price of the 20 business days preceding the grant date as the applicable value. For purposes of the fiscal year 2025 equity awards reflected in the table above, the applicable stock value used to determine the number of PSU and stock option shares awarded to each named executive officer was $150.65 per share for the November grant. The value of the award shown in this column, however, is based on the grant date closing price, $153.25 per share for the November grant.

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) Messrs. Curtin, Mitts, Jenkins and Stucki do not participate in any pension plan sponsored by TE Connectivity.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) Years of service is calculated from date of original hire through the end of 1999, when the plan was frozen.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) The present value of accumulated benefit amount has been measured as of September 26, 2025 and is based on a number of assumptions, including:

● A discount rate of 5.29% was applied to the Tyco Electronics Pension Plan—Part II AMP, based on rates as of September 26, 2025, in accordance with ASC 715-30, *Compensation—Retirement Benefits*;

● Mortality assumption reflects the Pri-2012 mortality tables, projected with generational mortality improvements using improvement scale MP-2020; and

● No retirements prior to assumed retirement age (earliest unreduced age, as defined by the respective plan documents) or withdrawals for disability or otherwise prior to retirement.

#### Nonqualified Deferred Compensation for Fiscal 2025
The following table discloses contributions and earnings credited to each of the named executive officers under the SSRP in fiscal year 2025 and balances at fiscal year end. The SSRP is a nonqualified deferred compensation plan. See "CD&A—Retirement and Deferred Compensation Benefits" for information regarding the plan. Pursuant to the SSRP, executive officers may defer up to 50% of their base salary, up to 100% of their annual bonus and elect to contribute "Spillover" deferrals. Spillover deferrals allow them to continue contributions into the SSRP once they reach the qualified plan annual contribution limit under the Company's qualified 401(k) plan. We provide matching contributions based on the executive's deferred base salary and bonus, as well as on the eligible wages used to calculate their Spillover deferrals. Matching contributions called "Company Credits" are also provided on any eligible compensation earned in excess of the Internal Revenue Code Section 401(a)(17) limit ($350,000 in 2025). All employees become immediately vested in the matching contributions, and matching contributions are calculated using the same matching percentage the executive officer is eligible to receive in the qualified plan.

72 2026 Annual General Meeting Proxy Statement

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

The Company match structure for the qualified plan is based on years of service as well as the employee's contributions.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) The amounts shown represent deferrals of cash and bonuses by the named executive officers under the SSRP, the amounts of which are included in the Summary Compensation table in the Salary or Non-Equity Incentive Plan Compensation column, as applicable.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) The amounts shown represent matching contributions by the Company, the amounts of which are included in the Summary Compensation table in the All Other Compensation column.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) No portion of these earnings shown in column (d) were included in the Summary Compensation Table because the SSRP does not provide for "above-market" or preferential earnings as defined in applicable SEC rules.

2026 Annual General Meeting Proxy Statement 75

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) Assumes the effective date of termination is September 26, 2025 and that the pro rata payment under the annual incentive program is equal to the actual award earned for fiscal year 2025.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) Assumes the effective date of termination is September 26, 2025 and the closing price per TE Connectivity share on the date of termination equals $217.04. Under Total Permanent Disability or Death, and Involuntary Termination—Change in Control, all outstanding stock options and RSUs become fully vested as of the date of termination, including dividend equivalent units issued on RSUs. Stock options that are vested and exercisable as of the termination date, as well as the options that vest as a result of the acceleration, will be exercisable for the lesser of the period specified in the option agreement or three years from the termination date. In no event, however, will an option be exercisable beyond its original expiration date. Amounts disclosed for stock options only reflect options that are in-the-money as of September 26, 2025.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) Assumes the effective date of termination is September 26, 2025 and the closing price per TE Connectivity share on the date of termination equals $217.04. Under Total Permanent Disability or Death, and Involuntary Termination—Change in Control, all outstanding PSUs granted, including dividend equivalent units issued on PSUs, vest in full at the target share amounts granted.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4) Payments associated with benefits and perquisites are limited to the items listed. No other benefits or perquisite continuation occurs under the termination scenarios listed.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(5) Health and welfare benefits continuation is 12 months for all named executive officers under Involuntary Termination—Not for Cause and Involuntary Termination—Change in Control. Annual amount is an approximation based on the fiscal year 2025 per capita employee cost. In the event that provision of any of the benefits would adversely affect the tax status of the applicable plan or benefits, the Company, in its sole discretion, may elect to pay to the participant cash in lieu of such coverage in an amount equal to the Company's premium or average cost of providing such coverage.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(6) Pursuant to our stock award plan, an employee is retirement eligible following a termination of employment (other than a termination for cause) provided that such participant has attained age 55 and has completed at least five years of service (provided further that the sum of the participant's age and years of service with the Company is 65 or higher). Messrs. Mitts and Stucki are not entitled to receive any continued vesting because they have not fulfilled the Retirement eligibility requirements under the terms of our stock award plan.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(7) For consideration of restrictive covenants, including non-compete for one year and non-solicitation for two years post termination, the executive employment agreements provide for payments equal to one times base pay and one times target bonus following the one-year notice period.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(8) See also "Retirement" column if the employee is Long-Term Incentive retirement eligible at the time of the "Involuntary-Not for Cause" termination.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(9) Executive employment agreements provide for continued base pay plus actual bonus and continued equity vesting for twelve months post notification for Involuntary Termination—Not for Cause and Involuntary Termination—Change in Control .

#### CEO Pay Ratio
● As required by Section 953(b) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and Item 402(u) of Regulation S-K, we are disclosing the ratio of the median employee's annual total compensation to the annual total compensation of our CEO. Neither the Compensation Committee nor management of the Company used the pay ratio in making compensation decisions.

● In accordance with SEC rules, companies may use the same median employee for up to three years unless there have been significant changes in the employee population or compensation arrangements. As the previously identified median employee had been used for three consecutive years, a new median employee was selected for fiscal year 2025.

● Using a measurement date of September 26, 2025, the newly identified median employee had an annual total compensation of $29,529, which includes base salary, cash allowances, bonus, and perquisites earned. The annual total compensation for our CEO, Mr. Curtin, was $18,325,536, as calculated in accordance with the Summary Compensation Table requirements. Based on this data, the ratio of CEO to median employee compensation is **621:1.** 

● Our CEO pay ratio reflects our global workforce composition, with a substantial portion of employees based in regions where prevailing wage levels are lower than in the United States. While our CEO is benchmarked against comparable U.S. market data and aligned with company performance, the ratio is influenced by our operational scale and geographic footprint.

● The methodology to determine the employee was as follows:

76 2026 Annual General Meeting Proxy Statement

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

Methodology

To identify the median employee, we considered all TE Connectivity employees worldwide, excluding our CEO. As of September 26, 2025, our global workforce consisted of approximately 81,503 employees, including 7,735 in the U.S. and 73,768 outside the U.S.

We applied the 5% de minimis exemption to exclude employees from the following countries:

● Thailand (1,978)

● Philippines (819)

● Malaysia (807)

● Romania (228)

● Slovakia (189)

The median employee was initially identified based on annual fixed salary. Once identified, we collected comprehensive compensation data from local HR and payroll systems, including base salary, actual annual bonus, allowances, perquisites, and other local compensation elements.

All compensation amounts for non-U.S. employees were converted to U.S. dollars using TE Connectivity's internally set fiscal year 2025 exchange rates. Seasonal, temporary, and part-time employees were not annualized, and no adjustments were made for differences in cost of living across geographies.

*Comparing TE Connectivity's Ratio to Other Companies*

This ratio is a reasonable estimate calculated using a methodology consistent with the SEC rules, as described above. Because applicable SEC rules permit various methodologies, assumptions and exclusions, our CEO pay ratio may not be comparable to ratios calculated and disclosed by other companies.

#### Pay Versus Performance
In accordance with the SEC's disclosure requirements set forth in Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K regarding pay versus performance ("PVP"), the following table presents the total compensation of our Named Executive Officers (NEOs) for the past three fiscal years as documented in the Summary Compensation Table.

The Management Development and Compensation Committee (MDCC) did not incorporate the below pay versus performance disclosure in its compensation determinations for any of the years displayed. For discussion of how the MDCC seeks to align pay with performance when making compensation decisions, please review the CD&A beginning on page 47.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) The amounts shown represent the amount of cash compensation earned in fiscal year 2025 for Board and committee services. We pay additional annual cash retainers to our Non-Executive Chairman, Chairperson of each of our committees of the Board, members of the Audit Committee and Joint Committee on Cybersecurity and our science advisory board member. Board member, Ken Washington, joined our Board of Directors during fiscal 2026.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) The amounts shown represent the amount of equity compensation granted in fiscal 2025 for Board services. On November 14, 2024, each non-employee director received a grant of 1,327 shares. In determining the number of shares to be issued, we used the average daily closing price for the 20-day period prior to the grant date ($150.65 per share), the same methodology used to determine employee equity awards. The grant date fair value of these awards, as shown above for fiscal year 2025, was calculated by using the closing price of TE Connectivity shares on the date of grant ($153.25 per share).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) Amounts shown represent company charitable matching gift contributions made on behalf of certain directors under TE Connectivity's matching gift program.

Charitable Contributions

Our Board Governance Principles require that the Nominating, Governance and Compliance Committee approve all charitable donations by TE Connectivity to organizations associated with a director. The amount of any such donation is limited to an amount annually that is less than the greater of $1 million or 2% of such tax exempt organization's consolidated gross revenues.

#### CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS
All relationships and transactions in which the Company and our directors and executive officers or their immediate family members are participants were reviewed to determine whether such persons have a direct or indirect material interest. As required under SEC rules, transactions over $120,000 that are determined to be directly or indirectly material to a related person are disclosed in the Company's proxy statement. In addition, we have adopted a written policy with respect to related person transactions pursuant to which the Nominating, Governance and Compliance Committee reviews and approves or ratifies any related person transaction that is required to be disclosed. In the course of its review and approval or ratification of a disclosable related person transaction, the committee considers whether the transaction is fair and reasonable to the Company and will take into account, among other factors it deems appropriate:

● whether the transaction is on terms no less favorable than terms generally available to an unaffiliated third-party under the same or similar circumstances;

● the extent of the related person's interest in the transaction and the materiality of the transaction to the Company;

● the related person's relationship to the Company;

● the material facts of the transaction, including the proposed aggregate value of the transaction;

● the business purpose for and reasonableness of the transaction, taken in the context of the alternatives available to the Company for attaining the purposes of the transaction;

● whether the transaction is in the ordinary course of the Company's business and was proposed and considered in the ordinary course of business; and

● the effect of the transaction on the Company's business and operations, including on the Company's internal control over financial reporting and system of disclosure controls or procedures, and any additional conditions or controls (including reporting and review requirements) that should be applied to such transaction.

There were no related person transactions in fiscal 2025 that require disclosure.

#### DELINQUENT SECTION 16(a) REPORTS
Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act requires TE Connectivity's executive officers and directors and persons who beneficially own more than ten percent of TE Connectivity's shares to file electronically reports of ownership and changes in ownership of such shares with the SEC and NYSE. These persons are required by SEC regulations to furnish TE Connectivity with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file. As a matter of practice, TE Connectivity's administrative staff assists TE Connectivity's executive officers and directors in preparing initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership and files those reports on their behalf. Based on TE Connectivity's review of such forms, as well as information provided and representations made by the reporting persons, TE Connectivity believes that all of its executive officers, directors and beneficial owners of more than ten percent of its shares complied with the reporting requirements of Section 16(a) during TE Connectivity's fiscal year ended September 26, 2025.

#### AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT
*The information contained in the report below shall not be deemed to be "soliciting material" or to be "filed" with the United States ("U.S.") Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), nor shall such information be incorporated by reference into any future filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, except to the extent that the company specifically incorporates it by reference in such filing.*

During our fiscal year ended September 26, 2025, the Audit Committee of the Board was comprised of four directors, Laura H. Wright, Carol A. Davidson, Lynn A. Dugle and Sam Eldessouky. Ms. Wright has served as Chair of the Committee since March 2024. The Board of Directors determined that each of the members of the Audit Committee met the independence and experience requirements of the NYSE and applicable federal regulations. In addition, Mses. Wright and Dugle and Messrs. Davidson and Eldessouky were determined by the Board to be audit committee financial experts. In addition, each member of the Audit Committee qualifies as an independent director and possesses the requisite competence in accounting or auditing in satisfaction of the requirements for audit committees prescribed by the Companies Act 2014.

The Audit Committee operates under a charter approved by the Board of Directors. A summary description of the duties and powers of the Audit Committee can be found in "The Board of Directors and Board Committees" section of this proxy statement. The Audit Committee oversees the Company's financial reporting process on behalf of the Board. Management has the primary responsibility for the financial statements and the reporting process, assures that the Company develops and maintains adequate financial controls and procedures, and monitors compliance with these processes. Deloitte & Touche LLP (the "independent auditor") is responsible for performing an audit of the consolidated year-end financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board ("PCAOB") (U.S.) to obtain reasonable assurance that the Company's consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement and expressing an opinion on the conformity of the financial statements with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. The Company's Irish registered auditor is responsible for expressing opinions on the conformity of the Company's statutory audited financial statements under Irish law with the requirements of the Companies Act 2014. The internal auditors are responsible to the Audit Committee and the Board for testing the integrity of the financial accounting and reporting control systems and such other matters as the Audit Committee and Board determine.

The Audit Committee periodically reviews and evaluates the performance of Deloitte & Touche LLP's lead audit partner, oversees the required rotation of the lead audit partner responsible for our audit, and reviews and considers the selection of the lead audit partner. At this time, the Audit Committee and the Board of Directors believe that the continued retention of Deloitte & Touche LLP to serve as our independent registered public accounting firm is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders.

In this context, the Audit Committee has reviewed the consolidated financial statements in TE Connectivity's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 26, 2025. The Committee held discussions with management and the independent auditor concerning the consolidated financial statements, as well as the independent auditor's opinions thereon, and the critical audit matters addressed in Deloitte & Touche LLP's audit report. The Committee also discussed with management, the internal auditors and the independent auditor the report of management and the independent auditor's opinion regarding the Company's internal control over financial reporting required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Management represented to the Committee that the Company's consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. The Audit Committee reviewed and discussed the statutory financial statements of TE Connectivity plc, as well as the Irish registered auditor's opinion thereon, with management and the Irish registered auditor. The Committee routinely reviewed and discussed with management and the Ombudsman any concerns from employees or external constituencies (including investors, suppliers and customers) about the Company's accounting, internal control over financial reporting or auditing matters.

The Committee discussed with the independent auditor all matters required to be discussed by the applicable requirements of the PCAOB (U.S.) and the SEC. In addition, the Committee discussed with the independent auditor the auditor's independence from TE Connectivity and its management, including the matters in the letter received from the independent auditor regarding the independent auditor's communications with the Audit Committee concerning independence.

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

#### AGENDA ITEM NO. 2—APPOINTMENT OF AUDITORS AND AUTHORITY TO SET REMUNERATION

#### Motion Proposed by the Board of Directors
**Our Board of Directors proposes that our shareholders ratify on a non-binding advisory basis the appointment of Deloitte & Touche LLP ("Deloitte") as our independent registered public accounting firm for our fiscal year ending September 25, 2026 and the appointment of Deloitte Ireland LLP as our statutory auditor under Irish law for our fiscal year ending September 25, 2026, and authorize, in a binding vote, the Board acting through its Audit Committee to determine Deloitte's Remuneration.**

#### Explanation
Deloitte served as our independent auditors for the fiscal year ended September 26, 2025. The Audit Committee has selected and appointed Deloitte to audit our financial statements for the fiscal year ending September 25, 2026 and has appointed Deloitte Ireland LLP to audit our statutory financial statements under Irish law for our fiscal year ending September 25, 2026. The Board, upon the recommendation of the Audit Committee, is asking our shareholders to ratify the appointment of Deloitte as our independent auditors for the fiscal year ending September 25, 2026 and the appointment of Deloitte Ireland LLP as our statutory auditor under Irish law for our fiscal year ending September 25, 2026, and to authorize the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors to set the independent auditors' remuneration. Although approval is not required by our Memorandum and Articles of Association or otherwise, the Board is submitting the selection of Deloitte to our shareholders for ratification because we value our shareholders' views on the Company's independent auditors. If the appointment of Deloitte is not approved by shareholders, it will be considered as notice to the Board and the Audit Committee to consider the selection of a different firm. Even if the appointment is approved, the Audit Committee, in its discretion, may 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 the Company and our shareholders.

**How We Select our Auditor**

The Audit Committee considers many factors when appointing our independent auditor, including the audit scope and estimated fees for professional services for the coming year. The election of our independent registered public accounting firm is then recommended by our Audit Committee to the Board of Directors for ratification by our shareholders annually. The Audit Committee and the Board believe that the continued retention of Deloitte to serve as our independent auditor is in our and our shareholders' best interests.

**Representatives of Deloitte will be available at the Annual General Meeting and will have an opportunity to make a statement if they wish. They will also be available to answer questions at the meeting on our Irish financial statements for the fiscal year ended September 26, 2025.**

#### Independent Auditor Fee Information

statements included in our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, statutory audits, consents, and the issuance of comfort letters associated with debt offerings.

<sup>(2)</sup> Audit-related fees for fiscal 2025 and 2024 were examinations of information technology controls related to the audit as well as for fiscal 2024 for carve-out financial statements.

<sup>(3)</sup> Tax fees for fiscal 2025 and 2024 were primarily for tax compliance services.

None of the services described above were approved by the Audit Committee under the de minimis exception provided by Rule 2-01(c)(7)(i)(C) under Regulation S-X.

#### Policy for the Pre-Approval of Audit and Non-Audit Services
The Audit Committee adopted an Audit and Tax Services Approval policy that provides guidelines for the audit, audit-related, tax and other permissible non-audit services that may be provided by the independent auditor.

The policy identifies the principles that must be considered by the Audit Committee in approving services to ensure that the auditor's independence is not impaired. The policy provides that the Corporate Controller will support the Audit Committee by providing a list of proposed services to the Audit Committee, monitoring the services and fees approved by the Audit Committee including those approved by the Audit Committee Chair, providing periodic reports to the Audit Committee with respect to approved services and ensuring compliance with the policy.

Under the policy, the Audit Committee annually approves the audit fee and terms of the engagement as set forth in the audit engagement letter. All other services must be separately approved by the Audit Committee. The independent auditor may not begin any work without confirmation of Audit Committee approval from the Corporate Controller or his/her delegate.

In accordance with the policy, when it is not practical for services and fees to be approved by the entire Audit Committee, the Audit Committee Chair may approve on behalf of the Committee. The Chair must report all such pre-approvals to the Audit Committee at a future committee meeting.

#### Vote Requirement to Approve Agenda Item
The affirmative vote of a majority of the votes properly cast (in person or by proxy) at the Annual General Meeting is required for approval of Proposal No. 2.

#### AGENDA ITEM NO. 3—ADVISORY VOTE TO APPROVE NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICER COMPENSATION

#### Motion Proposed by the Board of Directors
Our Board of Directors proposes that shareholders approve, on an advisory (non-binding) basis, the compensation of our named executive officers. We explain this compensation pursuant to the compensation disclosure rules of the SEC in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis ("CD&A"), the Fiscal 2025 Summary Compensation table, and related tables and discussions in this proxy statement.

#### Explanation
This proposal gives shareholders the opportunity to cast a non-binding advisory vote to approve the compensation of our named executive officers. This vote often is referred to as "say-on-pay." We hold this vote annually and expect to conduct the next advisory vote on the compensation of our named executive officers at our 2027 Annual General Meeting of Shareholders.

As described in our CD&A, which begins on page 48, TE Connectivity's executive compensation philosophy is designed to deliver competitive total compensation that will reward executives for achieving business unit and corporate performance objectives and will attract, motivate and retain leaders who will drive the creation of shareholder value. In order to implement that philosophy, the Management Development and Compensation Committee (the "MDCC") has established a disciplined process for adopting executive compensation programs and individual executive officer pay packages. Among other things, the MDCC analyzes competitive market data, reviews each executive officer's role and performance assessment, and consults with an independent compensation consultant.

Our executive compensation program has several features that were designed to ensure that compensation is consistent with TE Connectivity's executive compensation philosophy. The items highlighted below are described in more detail in the CD&A.

● For fiscal year 2025, the value of our named executive officer's annual long-term incentive award is in the form of stock options and performance stock units to drive long-term performance and alignment with shareholder interests.

● Awards of stock options have a four-year vesting period, and awards of performance stock units have a three-year cliff vesting period, to further emphasize long-term performance and executive officer commitment.

● Our annual incentive plan incorporates four financial or operational performance metrics in order to properly balance risk with compensation incentives.

● The annual incentive program incorporates a cap on the maximum payout to further manage risk and reduce the possibility of excessive payments.

● Through our compensation risk assessment process, we have determined that our incentive compensation programs are not reasonably likely to create a material risk to the Company.

● Our Share Ownership and Retention Requirement Plan, together with the design of the long-term incentive awards, drives long-term executive stock ownership.

Our executive compensation philosophy emphasizes performance-based pay. The Pay Mix chart in the CD&A demonstrates that in fiscal year 2025, performance-based incentives constituted about 92% of total direct compensation for our CEO and 82% of total direct compensation for our other named executive officers. Similarly, since TE Connectivity became a public company in 2007, pay levels have been relatively low in fiscal years in which the Company has not met its target performance measures and relatively high in years in which Company performance has been strong.

We encourage shareholders to read the CD&A, which discusses in greater detail how our compensation policies and procedures align with our executive compensation philosophy. The MDCC believes that our executive compensation programs and executive officer pay levels are consistent with our executive compensation philosophy, fully support the goals of that philosophy, and provide an appropriate balance between risk and incentives.

We are asking our shareholders to indicate their support for our named executive officer compensation as described in this proxy statement.

#### Text of the Shareholder Resolution
IT IS RESOLVED, that shareholders of TE Connectivity plc approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of the named executive officers of the Company, as disclosed in the proxy statement for the 2026 Annual General Meeting pursuant to the compensation disclosure rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, the Fiscal 2025 Summary Compensation table, and the other related tables and discussions.

#### Vote Requirement to Approve Agenda Item
The affirmative vote of a majority of the votes properly cast (in person or by proxy) at the Annual General Meeting is required for approval of Agenda Item No. 3. The vote is not binding on the Company, the MDCC or our Board. Nevertheless, our Board and the MDCC value the opinions of our shareholders and we will consider those opinions when designing compensation programs and individual executive compensation packages.

#### AGENDA ITEM NO. 4—TO AUTHORIZE THE COMPANY AND/OR ANY SUBSIDIARY OF THE COMPANY TO MAKE MARKET PURCHASES OF COMPANY SHARES

#### Motion Proposed by the Board of Directors
**Our Board of Directors proposes that our shareholders authorize the Company and/or any subsidiary of the Company to make market purchases of the Company's ordinary shares.**

#### Explanation
**Under Irish law, neither the Company nor any subsidiary of the Company may make market purchases or overseas market purchases of the Company's ordinary shares without shareholder approval. Accordingly, shareholders are being asked to authorize the Company, or any of its subsidiaries, to make market purchases and overseas market purchases. This authorization expires after eighteen months unless renewed; accordingly, we expect to propose renewal of this authorization at subsequent Annual General Meetings.** 

**Such purchases would be made only at price levels which our Directors consider to be in the best interests of the shareholders generally, after taking into account the Company's overall financial position. The Company currently expects to effect repurchases under our existing share repurchase authorization as redemptions pursuant to Article 4(b) of our Articles of Association. Whether or not this proposed resolution is passed, the Company will retain its ability to effect repurchases as redemptions pursuant to its Articles of Association, although subsidiaries of the Company will not be able to make market purchases or overseas market purchases of the Company's shares unless the resolution is adopted.** 

**In order for the Company or any of its subsidiaries to make overseas market purchases of the Company's ordinary shares, such shares must be purchased on a market recognized for the purposes of the Irish Companies Act 2014. The NYSE, on which the Company's ordinary shares are listed, is specified as a recognized stock exchange for this purpose by Irish law. The general authority, if approved by our shareholders, will become effective from the date of passing of the authorizing resolution.** 

#### Text of Shareholder Resolution
The text of the resolution in respect of Agenda Item No. 4 (which is proposed as an ordinary resolution) is as follows:

IT IS RESOLVED, that the Company and any subsidiary of the Company is hereby generally authorized to make market purchases and overseas market purchases of ordinary shares in the Company ("shares") on such terms and conditions and in such manner as the Board of Directors of the Company may determine from time to time but subject to the provisions of the Companies Act 2014 and to the following provisions:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The maximum number of shares authorized to be acquired by the Company and/or any subsidiary of the Company pursuant to this resolution shall not exceed, in the aggregate, 29,000,000 ordinary shares of USD $0.01 each (which represents slightly less than 10% of the Company's issued ordinary shares).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The maximum price to be paid for any ordinary share shall be an amount equal to 110% of the closing price on the New York Stock Exchange for the ordinary shares on the trading day preceding the day on which the relevant share is purchased by the Company or the relevant subsidiary of the Company, and the minimum price to be paid for any ordinary share shall be the nominal value of such share.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) This general authority will be effective from the date of passing of this resolution and will expire on the earlier of the date of the Annual General Meeting in 2027 or eighteen months from the date of the passing of this resolution, unless previously varied, revoked or renewed by ordinary resolution in accordance with the provisions of section 1074 of the Companies Act 2014. The Company or any such subsidiary may, before such expiry, enter into a contract for the purchase of shares which would or might be executed wholly or partly after such expiry and may complete any such contract as if the authority conferred hereby had not expired.

#### AGENDA ITEM NO. 5—DETERMINE THE PRICE RANGE AT WHICH THE COMPANY CAN RE-ALLOT TREASURY SHARES

#### Motion Proposed by the Board of Directors
**Our Board of Directors proposes that our shareholders authorize the Company to determine the price range at which the Company can re-allot shares that it holds as treasury shares under Irish law.**

#### Explanation
**Our historical open-market share repurchases and other share buyback activities result in ordinary shares being acquired and held by the Company as treasury shares. We may re-allot treasury shares that we acquire through our various share buyback activities in connection with our executive compensation program and our other compensation programs.** 

**Under Irish law, our shareholders must authorize the price range at which we may re-allot any shares held in treasury (including by way of re-allotment off-market). In this proposal, that price range is expressed as a minimum and maximum percentage of the prevailing market price (as defined below). Under Irish law, this authorization expires after eighteen months unless renewed; accordingly, we expect to propose the renewal of this authorization at subsequent Annual General Meetings.** 

**The authority being sought from shareholders provides that the minimum and maximum prices at which an ordinary share held in treasury may be re-allotted are 95% and 120%, respectively, of the average closing price per ordinary share of the Company, as reported by the NYSE, for the thirty (30) trading days immediately preceding the proposed date of re-allotment, save that the minimum price for a re-allotment to satisfy an obligation under an employee share plan is the par value of a share. Any re-allotment of treasury shares will be at price levels that the Board considers in the best interests of our shareholders.** 

#### Text of Shareholder Resolution
The text of the resolution in respect of Proposal No. 5 (which is proposed as a special resolution) is as follows:

IT IS RESOLVED, that the re-allotment price range at which any treasury shares held by the Company may be re-allotted shall be as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) the maximum price at which such treasury share may be re-allotted shall be an amount equal to 120% of the "market price," and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) the minimum price at which a treasury share may be re-allotted shall be the nominal value of the share where such a share is required to satisfy an obligation under an employee share plan operated by the Company or, in all other cases, an amount equal to 95% of the "market price," and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) for the purposes of this resolution, the "market price" shall mean the average closing price per ordinary share of the Company, as reported by the New York Stock Exchange, for the thirty (30) trading days immediately preceding the proposed date of re-allotment.

FURTHER RESOLVED, that this authority to re-allot treasury shares shall expire on the earlier of the date of the Annual General Meeting of the Company held in 2027 or eighteen months after the date of the passing of this resolution unless previously varied or renewed in accordance with the provisions of section 109 and/or 1078 (as applicable) of the Companies Act 2014 (and/or any corresponding provision of any amended or replacement legislation) and is without prejudice or limitation to any other authority of the Company to re-allot treasury shares on-market.

#### Vote Requirement to Approve Agenda Item
The authorization of the price range at which the Company may re-allot any shares held in treasury requires the affirmative vote of at least 75% of the votes properly cast (in person or by proxy) at the Annual General Meeting.

**RECOMMENDATION**

**The Board of Directors recommends a vote "FOR" approval of Agenda Item No. 5.**
