**Dear Fellow Snap One Stockholder:**

Thank you for your continued interest in Snap One. I am pleased to invite you to attend the Company's 2023 Annual Meeting of Stockholders ("Annual Meeting") to be held on Thursday, May 18, 2023 at 8:30 a.m. Eastern Time at Snap One's corporate offices located at 1800 Continental Blvd STE 300, Charlotte, NC 28273.

At this year's Annual Meeting, our stockholders will be asked to:

1) elect the three nominees for Class II directors who are named in the Proxy Statement;

2) ratify the appointment of Deloitte & Touche, LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 29, 2023;

3) transact any other business that properly comes before the Annual Meeting (including adjournments and postponements thereof).

If you owned our common stock at the close of business on March 20, 2023, you may attend and vote at the Annual Meeting.

Our Board of Directors recommends that you vote "FOR" proposals 1 and 2 listed above. I recommend that you read the accompanying Proxy Statement, which contains detailed information concerning each of these proposals.

Your vote is important. Whether or not you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, I hope you will vote as soon as possible. You may vote via a toll-free telephone number, over the Internet or in person at the Annual Meeting or, if you receive your proxy materials by U.S. mail, you also may vote by mailing a proxy card. Please review the instructions on the notice or on the proxy card regarding your voting options. Your participation will help to ensure the presence of a quorum at the meeting and save Snap One the extra expense associated with additional solicitation.

Sincerely,

**Snap One Holdings Corp.** 2023 Proxy Statement 3

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

Governance

**Board of Directors**

The business and affairs of Snap One Holdings Corp. ("Company," "Snap One," or "we"/"us") are managed under the direction of our eight-member Board of Directors (our "Board") in accordance with our certificate of incorporation ("Certificate of Incorporation"), amended and restated bylaws ("Bylaws") and the Corporate Governance Guidelines, a copy of which can be found on our website at https://investors.snapone.com/corporate-governance/governance-overview. Our Board is divided into three classes of directors, with the directors serving staggered three-year terms, with only one class of directors elected at each Annual Meeting. Our Class I directors are Messrs. Ragatz (Chair), Heyman and Hendrickson (with their terms expiring at the 2025 annual meeting), our Class II directors are Dr. Neal and Messrs. Wagers and Sanchez (with their terms expiring at the 2023 Annual Meeting) and our Class III directors are Mr. Best and Ms. Vanden-Eykel (with their terms expiring at the 2024 annual meeting).

As a recent public company, we believe that our Board's classified structure provides enhanced continuity and stability in business strategies and policies. Under the current system, after each election, at least two-thirds of the Board will have had prior experience and familiarity with our business, which is beneficial for long-term strategic planning and oversight of our operations. We believe that maintaining a classified board structure balances the need for stockholders to express their opinion on the Board's performance with the need for our directors to focus on our long-term success and maximize value for stockholders.

When considering whether directors and nominees have the experience, qualifications, attributes or skills, taken as a whole, to enable our Board to satisfy its oversight responsibilities effectively in light of our business and structure, the Board focuses primarily on each person's background and experience as reflected in each of the directors' individual biographies below. We have not formally established any specific, minimum qualifications that must be met or skills that are necessary for directors to possess, but in identifying and evaluating director nominees, the Board considers educational background, diversity of professional experience, knowledge of our business, integrity, professional reputation, independence, wisdom, and the ability to represent the best interests of our stockholders. We believe that our directors provide an appropriate mix of experience and skills relevant to the size and nature of our business.

There are no family relationships among our directors and director nominees, or between our directors, director nominees and executive officers.

At the Annual Meeting, stockholders will be asked to vote for three Class II nominees: Annmarie Neal, Adalio Sanchez, and Kenneth Wagers, III to serve until the 2026 annual meeting, and the election and qualification of his or her successor, or until such director's earlier death, disqualification, resignation or removal. The only members of our Board of Directors with expiring terms are the three Class II directors, and therefore proxies can only be voted for up to a maximum of three persons. Each of the nominees listed below has agreed to stand for election and has indicated he or she is willing to serve as a member of the Board. If any nominee for any reason is unable to serve or will not serve, the proxies may be voted for such substitute nominee as the proxy holder may determine.

**Snap One Holdings Corp.** 2023 Proxy Statement 9

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

**Controlled Company**

An affiliate of H&F beneficially owns more than 50% of our common stock and voting power. Under certain provisions of our Bylaws and our Stockholders Agreement (as defined below and described in the section entitled "*Related Party Agreements and Transactions — Arrangements with Our Directors, Executive Officers and Advisors — Stockholders Agreement*"), H&F and its affiliated entities are entitled to nominate at least a majority of the total number of directors comprising our Board. As a result, we are a "controlled company" as that term is set forth in Section 5615(c)(1) of the Nasdaq stock market ("Nasdaq") rules.

Under the Nasdaq corporate governance standards, a company of which more than 50% of the voting power is held by an individual, group or another company is a "controlled company" and may elect not to comply with certain corporate governance standards, including (1) the requirement that a majority of the board of directors consist of independent directors, (2) the requirement that we have a compensation committee that is composed entirely of independent directors with a written charter addressing the committee's purpose and responsibilities and (3) the requirement that our director nominations be made, or recommended to our full Board, by our independent directors or by a nominations committee that consists entirely of independent directors and that we adopt a written charter or board resolution addressing the nominations process. While we have the right to do so, we do not currently utilize any of these exemptions to the independence requirements imposed by the Nasdaq rules.

**Nomination Rights**

The Company is a party to a Stockholders Agreement with H&F and certain other stockholders, including certain officers, directors and employees of the Company ("Stockholders Agreement"). The Stockholders Agreement provides that H&F has the right to nominate the number of directors to our Board described below (such persons nominated by H&F, the "H&F nominees"). H&F has the right to nominate a number of nominees equal to (x) the total number of directors comprising our Board at such time, multiplied by (y) the percentage of our outstanding common stock held from time to time by H&F, rounded up to the nearest whole number. For so long as we have a classified board, the H&F nominees must be divided by H&F as evenly as possible among the classes of directors. Pursuant to the Stockholders Agreement, for so long as H&F has the right to nominate any persons to our Board, (i) we will include the H&F nominees on the slate that is included in our proxy statements relating to the election of directors of the class to which such persons belong and provide the highest level of support for the election of each of such persons as we provide to any other individual standing for election as a director, and (ii) we will include on the slate that is included in our proxy statement relating to the election of directors only (x) the H&F nominees, and (y) the other nominees (if any) nominated by our Board's nominating and corporate governance committee. In addition, H&F and certain other stockholders have agreed with the Company to vote in favor of the Company slate that is included in our Proxy Statement.

Messrs. Ragatz and Best and Dr. Neal were nominated by H&F to serve on our Board pursuant to the Stockholders Agreement.

**Removal of Directors; Vacancies**

Our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws provide that the number of directors will be fixed from time to time exclusively pursuant to a resolution adopted by the Board; however, if at any time H&F owns at least 40% in

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

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

voting power of the stock of our Company entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, the stockholders may also fix the number of directors pursuant to a resolution adopted by the stockholders. Subject to certain exceptions described in this section below with respect to our Stockholders Agreement, newly created director positions resulting from an increase in size of the Board and vacancies may be filled by our Board of Directors or our stockholders; provided, however, that at any time when H&F beneficially owns less than 40% in voting power of the stock of our Company entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, such vacancies shall be filled by our Board (and not by the stockholders).

Additionally, any or all of the directors may be removed at any time either with or without cause by the affirmative vote of a majority in voting power of all then-outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company entitled to vote thereon, voting together as a single class; provided, however, that at any time when H&F beneficially owns, in the aggregate, less than 40% in voting power of the then-outstanding shares of the stock of the Company entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, any such director or all such directors may be removed only for cause and only by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least 66 2/3% in voting power of all the then-outstanding shares of the stock of the Company entitled to vote thereon, voting together as a single class.

In the event that a H&F nominee ceases to serve as a director for any reason (other than the failure of our stockholders to elect such individual as a director), the persons entitled to designate such nominee director under the Stockholders Agreement are entitled to appoint another nominee to fill the resulting vacancy. For additional information about the Stockholders Agreement, see the section entitled "*Related Party Agreements and Transactions — Arrangements with Our Directors, Executive Officers and Advisors — Stockholders Agreement.*"

**Board Independence**

Pursuant to the corporate governance listing standards of the Nasdaq, a director employed by us cannot be deemed to be an "independent director." Each other director will qualify as "independent" only if our Board affirmatively determines that he or she has no material relationship with us, either directly or as a partner, stockholder or officer of an organization that has a relationship with us. Ownership of a significant amount of our stock, by itself, does not constitute a material relationship.

Our Board has determined each of our directors are "independent" in accordance with the Nasdaq rules, other than Mr. Heyman, who serves full-time as our Chief Executive Officer. In making its independence determinations, our Board considered all relevant facts and circumstances, including (but not limited to) the director's commercial, industrial, banking, consulting, legal, accounting, charitable, and familial relationships as well as any relationships with our management or significant stockholders. At least annually, the Board evaluates all relationships between the Company and each director in light of relevant facts and circumstances for the purposes of determining whether a material relationship exists that might signal a potential conflict of interest or otherwise interfere with such director's ability to satisfy his or her responsibilities as an independent director. Based on this evaluation, the Board will make an annual determination of whether each director meets the independence standards of Nasdaq, the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), and our applicable committees.

**Leadership Structure**

Our Board does not have a policy that the roles of Chief Executive Officer and Chairperson of the Board be either combined or separated, because the Board believes this determination should be made based on the best interests of the Company and its stockholders at any point in time based on the facts and circumstances then facing our Company. Currently, our leadership structure separates the roles of Chief Executive Officer and Chairperson of the Board with Mr. Heyman serving as our Chief Executive Officer and Mr. Ragatz serving as our non-executive Chairperson of the Board. We believe that this structure is appropriate as it provides Mr. Heyman with the ability to focus on our day-to-day operations while allowing Mr. Ragatz to lead our Board in its fundamental role of providing advice to and oversight of management. Mr. Ragatz qualifies as independent under applicable rules and regulations of the SEC and Nasdaq.

**Board Committees**

The Board's standing committees consist of an Audit and Risk Management Committee, a Compensation Committee and a Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. Each of these Committees is subject to its own charter, approved by our Board, copies of which can be found on our website at https://investors.snapone.com/corporate-governance/governance-overview. Our Board may from time to time establish other committees.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) identifying individuals qualified to become new Board members, consistent with criteria approved by the Board and the director qualification
standards set forth in our Corporate Governance Guidelines which include individual qualifications including strength of character, mature
judgment, industry knowledge or experience and an ability to work collegially with the other Board members, as well as all other factors
it considers appropriate, which may include age, diversity of background, existing commitments to other businesses, service on other boards
of directors or similar governing bodies of public or private companies or committees thereof, potential conflicts of interest with other

The Board held 19 Board and committee meetings during fiscal year 2022. Each director attended at least 75% of the meetings of the Board and committees on which such director served in fiscal year 2022 and which were held during the period such director served. While not required, members of our Board are encouraged to attend our annual meetings of stockholders. We held an annual meeting of stockholders last year on May 19, 2022, and all of our then-serving directors except for Ms. Vanden-Eykel were able to attend.

**Stockholder Recommendations of Director Candidates**

Stockholders who would like to recommend a director candidate for consideration by our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee must send notice to Snap One Holdings Corp., Attn: Corporate Secretary, 1355 W. Innovation Way, Suite 125, Lehi, Utah 84043, by registered, certified or express mail, and provide us with a brief biographical sketch of the recommended candidate, a document indicating the recommended candidate's willingness to serve if elected, and evidence of the stock ownership of the person recommending such candidate. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee or its chair will then consider the recommended director candidate in accordance with the same criteria applied to other director candidates, including those described in our corporate governance guidelines and the charter of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee.

**Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation**

Compensation decisions are made by our Compensation Committee. None of our current or former executive officers or employees currently serves, or has served during our last completed fiscal year, as a member of our Compensation Committee and, during that period, none of our executive officers served as a member of a compensation committee (or committee serving an equivalent function) of any other entity whose executive officers served as a member of our Board.

We have entered into certain agreements with affiliates of H&F described in the section entitled "Related Party Agreements and Transactions — Stockholders Agreement." While Messrs. Best and Ragatz and Dr. Neal are

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

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

affiliated with H&F (together the "H&F Directors"), they do not have a material interest in our transactions with H&F. Because of this affiliation with our controlling shareholder however, the H&F Directors do not meet the enhanced independence standards for non-employee directors set forth in Section 16b-3 of the Exchange Act required to approve certain exemptions related to equity Awards granted to directors or officers. Therefore, equity awards granted to our directors or officers are approved by at least a majority of our non-employee directors as defined by Section 16b-3 of the Exchange Act.

**Policy Against Speculative Trading, Hedging and Pledging**

Our Insider Trading Policy regarding securities trades by Company officers, directors and employees and any other persons the Company determines should be subject to the policy, such as contractors and consultants (collectively, "Company Personnel"), prohibits Company Personnel, as well as their family and/or household members, from directly or indirectly trading in options, warrants, puts and calls or similar instruments of the Company's securities or selling such securities "short" (i.e., selling stock that is not owned and borrowing the shares to make delivery). In addition, such persons are prohibited from purchasing financial instruments (including prepaid variable forward contracts, equity swaps, collars, and exchange funds) or otherwise engaging in transactions, that hedge or offset, or are designed to hedge or offset, any decrease in the market value of the Company's equity securities. Furthermore, our Insider Trading Policy generally prohibits such persons from purchasing Company securities on margin or pledging Company securities without pre-clearance from the Company's Chief Legal Officer or his designee.

**Environmental, Social and Governance Highlights**

**ESG Mission and Strategic Objectives**

Support of environmental, social and governance ("ESG") initiatives is integral to our business strategy and our culture. We believe that being a good environmental and social citizen is not just the right thing to do as a responsible member of the communities we serve but that our ESG initiatives can help drive long-term value creation.

![](ny20006771x500_image25.jpg)

We have established four cornerstone pillars of corporate responsibility as we seek to benefit our communities and stakeholders: Governance, People, Product, and Planet. Our commitment is guided by the following goals:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1. <u>Ethical Company</u>: Commit to governance practices and policies that promote high ethical standards and maximize the
 long-term interests of our stakeholders (Governance).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2. <u>Employer of Choice</u>: Create safer environments and more equitable and inclusive employee experiences (People).

**Snap One Holdings Corp.** 2023 Proxy Statement 17

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3. <u>Engaged Leader</u>: Create solutions that enable resource efficiency and enhance data security and privacy for end customers and
partners (Product).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4. <u>Environmental Steward</u>: Meaningfully reduce our impact on the environment by decreasing our carbon footprint and improving the
sustainability of our operations (Planet).

**Ethical Company (Governance)**

We are committed to governance practices and policies that promote high ethical standards and maximize the long-term interests of our stakeholders, including an emphasis on transparency and leadership with our partners.

*Governance Structure*

As our Company matures, we continue to evolve our governance structure to more closely align with investor expectations. Since our initial public offering ("IPO") in 2021, we have adopted both internal and publicly facing policies to increase transparency and compliance. We will continue to develop our governance practices and policies to maximize stakeholder interests.

We believe that guidance from our Board is important to ensure that ESG is incorporated into our overall Company strategy. To enable this, our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee directs and advises the Board's ESG oversight and strategy and regularly reports to the Board on these topics. In 2022, we created a cross-functional ESG Committee, with representation from our Product, Supply Chain, Finance, Legal, and Information Technology ("IT") teams. This group assists in establishing and implementing our ESG strategy and driving alignment of our business and ESG objectives.

*Supply Chain Responsibility*

Building productive and long-term relationships with suppliers is essential to our business growth and success. We believe prioritizing these partnerships not only helps to strengthen social and environmental practices, but also reduces risk across the supply chain. We respect the human rights of all people and remain dedicated to following transparent and accountable labor and business practices to ensure those involved in the creation of our products are respected.

We communicate our social and environmental standards to suppliers through our Partner Code of Conduct. We have high expectations of our vendors and require that they adhere to our standards concerning legal compliance, anti-corruption and bribery, fair competition, responsible sourcing of minerals, intellectual property protection, privacy and information security, anti-discrimination, and global trade laws and regulations, including the prohibition of slavery, child labor or human trafficking in any part of the supply chain.

*Whistleblower Hotline*

We value compliance, fairness, and transparency, and believe that open, honest communication is the expectation, not the exception. To align with that goal, we employ an independent third-party dedicated whistleblower hotline, available to our team members and partners 24 hours a day, seven days a week to encourage the reporting of suspected breaches of our Company policies or code of conduct and any illegal or unethical activity, including abuse, misconduct in the workplace, and financial fraud including with respect to accounting, internal controls and auditing, and any retaliation against team members or others who make, in good faith, any allegation of such misconduct.

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

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

**Employer of Choice (People)**

We are committed to creating safer environments and more equitable and inclusive employee experiences.

*Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI)*

We believe that our team members are more fulfilled and engaged in environments where we embrace diversity and champion equity and inclusion.

For this reason, we are committed to creating work environments that foster belonging, encourage open communication and diversity of thought. Our commitment includes providing equal access to, and participation in, employment and advancement opportunities. Our employee-sponsored DEI Council promotes our shared vision of equality and belonging and facilitates community outreach, development workshops, and team member inclusion groups. We also continue to support Affinity Groups, such as our Women in Tech group, focused on education and awareness, community activities and mentoring programs.

Under our Equal Employment Opportunity and Commitment to Diversity Policy, we commit to recruit and hire individuals and to conduct all personnel actions without regard to race, color, national origin, genetic information, gender identity, religion, age, sex, sexual orientation, disability, veteran status and/or any other status or condition. We recruit, retain and develop employees from all walks of life and lived experiences.

*Employee Engagement*

Snap One believes engaged and enabled employees are more productive in our Company, and more successful in their homes and communities. We are committed to attracting, developing and retaining a highly qualified, and diverse work force that encourages and fosters safety, employee development, and open communication. We believe fair and equitable pay is an essential element of a successful organization, and we offer competitive pay to attract, motivate and retain exceptional talent, as well as a comprehensive benefits package to provide for the health, welfare and retirement needs of our employees.

We also strive to cultivate a culture and environment in which our employees can thrive. We support our employees in meeting their career goals through a range of development tools, resources and opportunities, including providing a Company-wide employee recognition platform, a learning and development platform, and open forums with executives through periodic town hall meetings.

**Engaged Leader (Product)**

*Privacy & Cybersecurity*

We are committed to creating solutions that enable resource efficiency and enhance data security and privacy for end customers and partners. Our 2023 goals to act as an engaged leader in our industry are designed to help us continue to develop our cybersecurity and data privacy policies and processes.

We continuously evaluate and adjust our privacy and security procedures to ensure our customers' data is protected and used consistent with applicable law. We value the privacy of our partners and customers, and never sell customer information. The Board devotes regular and thorough attention to the security of our data and systems including quarterly Audit and Risk Management presentations. The Board focuses on the development and protection of our data and IT systems, including business resilience, compliance, cybersecurity, and information security risks. For more details on our privacy and security programs, visit www.SnapOne.com/privacy.

**Environmental Steward (Planet)**

We are committed to meaningfully reduce our impact on the environment by decreasing our carbon footprint and improving sustainability of operations.

*Greenhouse Gas Emissions*

In line with our mission, we recognize the importance of protecting our planet. Snap One understands that companies must do their part individually and collectively to mitigate environmental impact.

We are focused on collecting accurate data and information that we expect will ultimately allow us to reduce direct and indirect emissions.

*Responsible Packaging*

The production and disposal of packaging material used for products and transportation is an important environmental issue. While significant opportunities remain, in 2022, we collaborated with our product partners to explore packaging improvements that avoid wasted material and space, as well as ways to increase the reusability or recycling of the materials that are utilized.

Under our Reduce, Re-use, Recycle Initiative that was started in 2020 to reduce waste at distribution centers, the majority of our inbound ocean freight master pack boxes are re-used for outbound shipping, and boxes that cannot be re-used are recycled, using baling machines at each site for efficient consolidation and easier delivery to recyclers.

We also started a pilot project in 2021 to re-use cardboard boxes as packing material by using a cardboard perforator to convert cardboard to paper mesh netting that replaces bubble wrap and air bags; further reducing the amount of cardboard Snap One pays other companies to recycle.

*Energy-Savings*

We enthusiastically explore and support projects that may creatively expand the uses of our technology and well as provide energy savings. Our OvrC and 4Sight platforms allow our partners to monitor end customers' systems, and to troubleshoot and resolve many issues remotely. In addition to enhancing convenience for both partner and end customers, these platforms conserve energy by reducing the need for partner site visits to end customers. These platforms, coupled with our smart product energy saving features, also enable end customers to more easily manage their power consumption.

**Code of Business Conduct and Ethics**

We adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics ("Code of Conduct") applicable to all employees, executive officers and directors that addresses legal and ethical issues that may be encountered in carrying out their duties and responsibilities, including the requirement to report any conduct they believe to be a violation of the Code of Conduct. The Code of Conduct is available on our website, https://investors.snapone.com/corporate-governance/governance-overview. We also employ an independent third-party dedicated Whistleblower Hotline, which our team members and partners can use 24 hours a day, seven days a week to encourage the reporting of suspected breaches of our Code of Conduct, Company policies and any illegal or unethical activity, including financial fraud. If we ever were to amend or waive any provision of our Code of Conduct that applies to our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or any person performing similar functions, we intend to satisfy our disclosure obligations with respect to any such waiver or amendment by posting such information on our website set forth above, rather than by filing a Form 8-K.

**The Board and Risk Oversight**

Management has the responsibility to operate and manage the business on a day-to-day basis in a competent and ethical manner to produce value for the stockholders. The Board has extensive involvement in the oversight of risk management related to us and our business. Our Chief Executive Officer and other executive officers regularly report to the Board, as well as the Audit and Risk Management, the Compensation, and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committees to ensure effective and efficient oversight of our activities and to assist in proper risk management and the ongoing evaluation of management controls. Through its regular meetings with management, including the finance, legal, IT, and internal audit functions, the Audit and Risk Management Committee reviews and discusses all significant areas of our business and summarizes for the Board all areas of risk, including with respect to cybersecurity, and the appropriate mitigating factors. The internal audit function reports functionally and administratively to our Chief Financial Officer and directly to the Audit and Risk Management Committee. Our Compensation Committee is responsible for overseeing the management of risks relating to our executive compensation plans and arrangements. Our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is responsible for managing risks associated with the independence of the Board. The Company has also recently established an ESG Committee that works with the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee to assist the Board in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities regarding ESG matters including: environmental, health and safety, corporate social responsibility, sustainability, philanthropy, corporate governance, reputation, diversity, equity and inclusion, community issues, political contributions and other public policy matters relevant to the Company. While each Board committee is responsible for evaluating certain risks and overseeing the management of such risks, our full Board keeps itself regularly informed regarding such risks through committee reports and otherwise.

**Non-Employee Director Compensation**

**Non-Employee Director Compensation Program**

For fiscal year 2022, director compensation and equity award grants for service on our Board were limited to directors not affiliated with H&F nor employed by the Company: Kenneth R. Wagers III, Tom Hendrickson, Adalio Sanchez, and Amy Steel Vanden-Eykel (each a "Non-Employee Director").

On May 11, 2022 the Board amended its Non-Employee Director compensation program such that, each Non-Employee Director receives an annual retainer of $225,000 (up from $200,000) consisting of an annual cash retainer of $75,000 payable in quarterly installments and an additional $150,000 (up from $125,000), which is paid in the form of a grant of restricted stock units that vests in its entirety one year from the date of the grant. This program also provides for (i) an additional $50,000 for the Chairman of the Board and (ii) the following additional cash stipends to our Non-Employee Directors for service on our Committees:

---

**Non-Employee Director Stock Ownership Guidelines**

We have adopted stock ownership guidelines for our Non-Employee Directors in order to better align our eligible directors' financial interests with those of our stockholders by requiring such directors to own a minimum level of our shares. Each of our Non-Employee Directors is required to own stock in an amount equal to five times the amount of the annual cash retainer (excluding committee retainers) within five years of becoming subject to the guidelines. As of March 20, 2023, each of our Non-Employee Directors is on track to satisfy the guidelines within the five-year period. See *"—Other Compensation Policies—Stock Ownership Policy"* in the "Executive Compensation" section below for more information.

**Directors Deferral Plan**

Our Board has adopted the Directors Deferral Plan. All directors who are not our employees or employed by any of our subsidiaries are eligible to participate in the Directors Deferral Plan.

***Deferral Elections.*** Under the terms of the Directors Deferral Plan, our non-employee directors may elect to defer all or a portion of the shares issued upon settlement of their RSUs in the form of deferred stock units credited to an account maintained by us. Deferred stock units will be awarded from, and are subject to the terms of the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan. At the end of the deferral period, non-employee directors participating in the Directors Deferral Plan will have the right to receive a number of shares of common stock equal to the number of deferred stock units initially credited to the director's account plus the number of deferred stock units credited as a result of any dividend equivalent rights (to which deferred stock units initially credited to a director's account are entitled).

***Settlement of Deferred Stock Units.*** Non-employee directors may elect that settlement of deferred stock units be made or commence on (i) the first business day in a year following the year for which the deferral is made, (ii) following termination of service on our Board or (iii) the earlier of (i) or (ii). Non-employee directors may elect that deferred stock units be settled in a single one-time distribution or in a series of up to 15 annual installments. In addition, deferred stock unit accounts will be settled upon a Change in Control (as defined in the 2021 Annual Incentive Plan) or upon a non-employee director's death.

***Administration; Amendment and Termination.*** Our Compensation Committee administers the Directors Deferral Plan. The Directors Deferral Plan or any deferral may be amended, suspended or, discontinued by our Compensation Committee at any time in the Compensation Committee's discretion but no such amendment, suspension or discontinuance may reduce any director's accrued benefit, except as required to comply with applicable law. Our Compensation Committee may terminate the Directors Deferral Plan at any time, as long as the termination complies with applicable tax laws and other requirements.

Executive Compensation

**Compensation Discussion and Analysis**

We are an "emerging growth company" as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups ("JOBS") Act of 2012 and, as such, have elected to comply with certain reduced public company reporting requirements regarding our executive compensation program. These reduced reporting requirements include reduced disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements. In addition, we are not currently required to hold non-binding stockholder advisory votes on Named Executive Officer compensation.

We may use these provisions until the last day of our fiscal year in which the fifth anniversary of the completion of our IPO occurs (which will be our 2026 fiscal year). However, if any of the following events occur prior to the end of such five-year period, we will cease to be an emerging growth company prior to the end of the five-year period: our public float exceeds $700 million and we become a "large accelerated filer," our annual gross revenues exceed $1.235 billion, or we issue more than $1.0 billion of nonconvertible debt in any three-year period.

We are also a "smaller reporting company," as defined in Item 10(f)(1) of Regulation S-K. If we are a smaller reporting company at the time we cease to be an emerging growth company, we may continue to rely on exemptions from certain disclosure requirements that are available to smaller reporting companies.

This Compensation Discussion and Analysis is intended to assist our stockholders in understanding our executive compensation program by providing an overview of our executive compensation-related policies, practices, and decisions for 2022. It also explains how we determined the material elements of compensation for our principal executive officer and our two executive officers (other than our principal executive officer) who were our most highly compensated executive officers as of December 30, 2022, and who we refer to as our "Named Executive Officers." For fiscal year 2022, our Named Executive Officers were:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• John Heyman, our Chief Executive Officer (our "CEO");

• Michael Carlet, our Chief Financial Officer (our "CFO"); and

• Jeffrey Hindman, our Chief Revenue Officer.

Specifically, this Compensation Discussion and Analysis provides an overview of our executive compensation philosophy, the overall objectives of our executive compensation program, and each compensation element that we provide to our executive officers, including our Named Executive Officers. In addition, it explains how and why the Compensation Committee arrived at the specific compensation decisions for our executive officers, including our Named Executive Officers, in fiscal year 2022.

**Overview**

*2022 Executive Compensation Highlights*

Consistent with our performance and compensation philosophy, our Board of Directors and/or the Compensation Committee took the following compensation actions for our Named Executive Officers for 2022:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•  ***Base Salaries*** – The Compensation Committee determined to increase the annual base salaries of our Named Executive Officers to bring their base salaries to levels that were comparable to those of similarly situated executives in the competitive marketplace, including an increase to the annual base salary of our CEO to $735,000, our CFO to $400,000, and our Chief Revenue Officer to $375,000, representing increases of between 5-7%

•  ***Cash Bonuses*** – Based on our performance during 2022, the Compensation Committee made cash bonus payments to our Named Executive Officers under our 2022 Annual Incentive Plan, which represented 41.5% of their target annual incentive award opportunities.

•  ***Long-Term Incentive Compensation*** – Our Board approved long-term incentive compensation opportunities to our Named Executive Officers in the form of performance stock unit ("PSU") awards that may be earned by the achievement of certain performance metrics, vest and be settled for shares of our common stock, and restricted stock unit ("RSU") awards that may vest and be settled for shares of our common stock.

*Emphasis on Variable and Performance-Based Compensation*

The annual compensation of our executive officers, including our Named Executive Officers, varies from year to year based on our corporate financial and operational results. Consistent with our compensation philosophy, our executive compensation program emphasizes "variable" pay over "fixed" pay and seeks to balance short-term and long-term incentives, as well as performance-based and time-based incentives. In fiscal year 2022, the majority of the target total direct compensation of our CEO consisted of variable pay, including cash awarded under our annual bonus plan and long-term incentives in the form of equity awards for which value is variable based on both our stock price and the achievement of performance conditions. Fixed pay, primarily consisting of base salary, made up only 15% of our CEO's target total direct compensation in fiscal year 2022, while variable pay, consisting of both annual and long-term incentives in the form of equity awards, made up 84% of his target total direct compensation. Similar allocations applied to our other executive officers, including our other Named Executive Officers. The following charts show the percentages of target- variable pay versus target-fixed pay for our CEO and our other Named Executive Officers in fiscal year 2022:

*Executive Compensation Best Practices*

We endeavor to maintain sound executive compensation policies and practices, including compensation-related corporate governance standards, consistent with our executive compensation philosophy. During 2022, the following executive compensation policies and practices were in place, including those we have implemented to drive performance and those that either prohibit or minimize behaviors that we do not believe serve our stockholders' long-term interests:

**Compensation Philosophy and Strategy**

Attracting and rewarding the best talent creates a competitive edge for us. Cultivating a "results-oriented" culture focused on advancement and retention ensures we continue to be the best place to work in our industry. Our competitive total rewards anchor on the following key programs:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• market-competitive annual base salaries plus annual cash incentives,

• an attractive long-term incentive compensation program in the form of equity awards, and

• market-competitive retirement and healthcare benefits.

We believe high performance should be rewarded through differentiation of merit and equity awards. Because we believe that diversity enhances a team's creative ability, we strive to deliver a total rewards program that supports diversity and creates programs to ensure equitable pay.

We have designed our executive compensation program to reward our executive officers, including our Named Executive Officers, at a level consistent with our overall strategic and financial performance and to provide remuneration sufficient to attract, retain, and motivate them to exert their best efforts in the highly competitive technology-oriented environments in which we operate.

The Compensation Committee periodically reviews and analyzes market trends and the prevalence of various compensation delivery vehicles and adjusts the design and operation of our executive compensation program from time to time as it deems necessary and appropriate. In designing and implementing the various elements of our executive compensation program, the Compensation Committee considers market and industry practices, as well as the tax efficiency of our compensation structure and its impact on our financial condition. While the Compensation Committee considers all of these factors in its deliberations, it places no formal weighting on any one factor.

The Compensation Committee reviews our executive compensation program annually. As we continue to grow, the Compensation Committee will evaluate our compensation philosophy and program objectives as circumstances require.

**Compensation-Setting Process**

*Role of the Compensation Committee*

The Compensation Committee, among its other responsibilities, establishes our overall compensation philosophy and oversees our executive compensation program, and the compensation of the non-employee members of our Board. The Compensation Committee has the authority to retain special counsel and other advisors, including compensation consultants, to assist in carrying out its responsibilities to determine the compensation of our executive officers. The Compensation Committee's authority, duties, and responsibilities are described in its charter, which is reviewed annually and updated as warranted. The charter is available on our Company website at investors.snapone.com/corporate-governance/governance-overview.

While the Compensation Committee determines our overall compensation philosophy and recommends the compensation of our executive officers, it considers input from its compensation consultant, as well as our CEO and our internal compensation staff, to formulate recommendations and make decisions with respect to specific compensation actions. The Compensation Committee determines and approves, or recommends to the Board the approval of, all decisions regarding executive compensation, including base salary levels, target annual cash bonus

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

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

opportunities, actual cash bonus payments, and long-term incentive compensation in the form of equity awards. The Compensation Committee meets on a regularly scheduled basis and at other times as needed, and periodically reviews compensation matters with our Board of Directors.

Prior to the beginning of each fiscal year, the Compensation Committee reviews our executive compensation program, including any incentive compensation plans and arrangements, to assess whether our compensation elements, actions, and decisions: (i) are properly coordinated, (ii) align with our vision, mission, values, and corporate goals, (iii) provide appropriate short-term and long-term incentives for our executive officers, (iv) achieve their intended purposes, and (v) are competitive with the compensation of executives in comparable positions at the companies with which we compete for executive talent. Following this assessment, the Compensation Committee makes any necessary modifications to our existing compensation program and practices, which may include adopting new plans or arrangements.

The Compensation Committee also conducts an annual review of our executive compensation strategy to ensure that it is appropriately aligned with our business strategy and achieving our desired objectives. Further, the Compensation Committee reviews market trends and changes in competitive compensation practices, as further described below. Based on its review and assessment, the Compensation Committee periodically recommends changes in our executive compensation program to our Board of Directors.

*Setting Target Total Compensation*

Typically, during the first and fourth quarters of the fiscal year, or more frequently as warranted, the Compensation Committee reviews the annual base salary levels, annual cash bonus opportunities, and long-term incentive compensation opportunities of our executive officers, including our Named Executive Officers, and all related performance criteria. Adjustments to a Named Executive Officer's compensation made in connection with the Compensation Committee's annual review are generally effective at the beginning of the fiscal year or at the time of a promotion.

The Compensation Committee's goal is generally to target elements of compensation within a competitive range, using a balanced approach that does not use rigid percentiles or any quantitative formula to determine target pay levels for each compensation element. For 2022, the Compensation Committee reviewed each element of compensation described below and set the target total compensation opportunities of our executive officers after taking into consideration the following factors:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• our executive compensation program objectives,

• our performance against the financial, operational, and strategic objectives established by the Board and Compensation Committee,

• each individual executive officer's knowledge, skills, experience, qualifications, tenure, and scope of roles and responsibilities
 relative to other similarly situated executives at the companies in our compensation peer group and in selected broad-based compensation
 surveys,

• prior performance of each individual executive officer, based on a subjective assessment of his or her contributions to our overall
 performance, ability to lead his or her business unit or function, and work as part of a team, all of which reflect our core values,

• potential of each individual executive officer to contribute to our long-term financial, operational, and strategic objectives,

• our CEO's compensation relative to that of our executive officers, and compensation parity among our executive officers,

**Snap One Holdings Corp.** 2023 Proxy Statement 31

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

• our financial performance relative to our compensation and performance peers,

• compensation practices of the companies in our compensation peer group and in selected
 broad-based compensation surveys and the positioning of each executive officer's compensation in a ranking of peer company
 compensation levels based on an analysis of competitive market data,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• recommendations of our CEO with respect to the compensation of our executive officers (except with respect to his own compensation).

These factors provide the framework for compensation decision-making and final decisions regarding the compensation opportunity for each executive officer.

With respect to each of our Named Executive Officers, in determining compensation, the Compensation Committee considered our compensation philosophy as described above, comparative market data and specific factors relative to each Named Executive Officer's responsibilities and performance. We do not specifically benchmark compensation for our Named Executive Officers in terms of picking a particular percentile relative to other individuals with similar titles at peer group companies. The Compensation Committee believes that many subjective factors unique to each Named Executive Officer's responsibilities and performance are not adequately reflected or otherwise accounted for in a percentile-based compensation determination.

*Role of our CEO*

Our CEO works closely with the Compensation Committee in determining the compensation of our other executive officers, including the other Named Executive Officers. Typically, our CEO, in consultation with our Chief People Officer, reviews comparative data derived from publicly available market compensation information for each of the other Named Executive Officers. The CEO then makes a recommendation to the Compensation Committee regarding compensation for the other Named Executive Officers. The Compensation Committee reviews and discusses this information and the recommendation by the CEO, and then determines a dollar-denominated amount available for allocation to salary and equity awards for each such Named Executive Officer, as it deems appropriate. The CEO also works with the Compensation Committee to recommend the structure of the annual bonus plan, and to identify and develop corporate and individual performance objectives for such plan, and to evaluate actual performance against the selected measures.

While the Compensation Committee considers our CEO's recommendations, as well as the competitive market analysis prepared by its compensation consultant, these recommendations and market data serve as only two of several factors in making its decisions with respect to executive officer compensation. Ultimately, the Compensation Committee applies its own business judgment and experience to determine the individual compensation elements and amount thereof for our executive officers. Moreover, no executive officer participates in the determination of the amounts or elements of his or her own compensation.

*Role of Compensation Consultant*

Pursuant to its charter, the Compensation Committee has the authority to engage its own legal counsel and other advisors, including compensation consultants, as it determines in its sole discretion, to assist in carrying out its responsibilities. The Compensation Committee makes all determinations regarding the engagement, fees, and services of these advisors, and any such advisor reports directly to the Compensation Committee.

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

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

In 2022, pursuant to this authority, the Compensation Committee engaged Korn Ferry, a national compensation consulting firm, to provide information, analysis, and other assistance relating to our executive compensation program on an ongoing basis. The nature and scope of the services provided to the Compensation Committee by Korn Ferry in 2022 were as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• provided recommendations for updating the compensation peer group,

• provided advice with respect to compensation best practices and market trends for executive officers and members of our Board,

• conducted an analysis of the levels of overall compensation and each element of compensation for our executive officers,

• provided *ad hoc* advice and support throughout the year.

Representatives of Korn Ferry attend meetings of the Compensation Committee as requested and also communicate with the Compensation Committee outside of meetings. Korn Ferry reports to the Compensation Committee rather than to management, although Korn Ferry may meet with members of management, including our CEO, Chief People Officer, and Chief Legal Officer, for purposes of gathering information on proposals that management may make to the Compensation Committee. During 2022, Korn Ferry met with various executive officers to collect data and obtain management's perspective on various executive compensation proposals.

The Compensation Committee may replace its compensation consultant or hire additional advisors at any time.

The Compensation Committee has assessed the independence of Korn Ferry taking into account, among other things, the various factors as set forth in Exchange Act Rule 10C-1 and the enhanced independence standards and factors set forth in the applicable listing standards of the Nasdaq, and has concluded that its relationship with Korn Ferry and the work of Korn Ferry on behalf of the Compensation Committee has not raised any conflict of interest.

*Competitive Positioning*

Given our unique history and business, market competitors and geographical location, the Compensation Committee believes that the competitive market for executive talent includes primarily other technology and electronics companies in related industries as well as specialty distribution companies. Accordingly, it reviews compensation from a compensation peer group that consists of a carefully selected cross-section of public companies that are in the same or related industries with revenues and market capitalizations similar to ours. This data is supplemented with executive compensation survey data representing both public and private technology companies that are of similar size.

*Compensation Peer Group*

As part of its deliberations, the Compensation Committee considers competitive market data on executive compensation levels and practices and a related analysis of such data. This data is drawn from a select group of peer companies developed by the Compensation Committee, as well as compensation survey data.

**Snap One Holdings Corp.** 2023 Proxy Statement 33

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

In November 2021, the Compensation Committee, based on recommendations provided by and discussions with its compensation consultant, selected a group of peer companies to be used as a reference for market positioning and for assessing competitive market practices. This process involved a detailed review of the pool of U.S.-based publicly traded companies, taking into consideration companies our management considered peers (applying traditional size and industry filters) and reviewing companies named as peers of similar companies.

The Compensation Committee selected the following peer group to consist of 18 publicly traded technology companies. The selected companies had revenues ranging from approximately $355 million to approximately $1,950 million, with a median of approximately $1,021 million, and market capitalizations ranging from approximately $275 million to approximately $5,780 million, with a median of approximately $1,884 million. The companies comprising the compensation peer group were as follows:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| **2022 Compensation Peer Group** | **2022 Compensation Peer Group** | **2022 Compensation Peer Group** |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;ADTRAN, Inc. | EnPro Industries, Inc | Sonos, Inc. |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Alarm.com Holdings, Inc. | Extreme Networks, Inc. | SPS Commerce, Inc. |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Arlo Technologies, Inc. | iRobot Corporation | SPX Corporation |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Bottomline Technologies, Inc. | Mandiant, Inc. | Universal Electronics, Inc. |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Calix, Inc. | NETGEAR, Inc. | Vivint Smart Home, Inc. |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Corsair Gaming, Inc. | Plantronics, Inc. | VOXX International Corporation |

---

This compensation peer group was used by the Compensation Committee in connection with its annual review of our executive compensation program in November 2021. Specifically, the Compensation Committee reviewed the compensation data drawn from the compensation peer group, in combination with industry-specific compensation survey data from the Radford Global Technology Survey, to develop a subjective representation of the "competitive market" with respect to current executive compensation levels and related policies and practices. The Compensation Committee then evaluated how our pay practices and executive officer compensation compared to the competitive market. As part of this evaluation, the Compensation Committee also reviewed the performance measures and performance goals generally used within the competitive market to reward performance.

The Compensation Committee believes that information regarding the compensation practices at other companies is useful in at least two respects. First, the Compensation Committee recognizes our compensation policies and practices must be competitive in the marketplace. Second, this information is useful in assessing the reasonableness and appropriateness of individual executive compensation elements and of our overall executive compensation packages. This information is only one of several factors that the Compensation Committee considers, however, in making its decisions with respect to the compensation of our executive officers.

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

**Compensation Elements**

The three primary elements of our executive compensation programs are: (1) base salary, (2) annual cash bonus opportunities, and (3) long-term incentive compensation in the form of equity awards, as described below:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| &nbsp;&nbsp;**Compensation Element** | **What This Element Rewards** | **Purpose and Key Features of Element** |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Base salary | Individual performance, level of experience and expertise, expected future performance and contributions | Provides competitive level of fixed compensation determined by the market value of the position, with actual base salaries established based on the facts and circumstances of each executive officer and each individual position |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Annual cash awards | Achievement of pre-established corporate performance objectives (related to adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("Adjusted EBITDA") and Net Sales achievement) | Motivate executive officers to contribute to the Company's financial success and drive value for shareholders |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Long-term incentives/equity awards | Achievement of corporate performance objectives designed to enhance long-term stockholder value and attract, retain, motivate, and reward executive officers over extended periods for achieving important corporate objectives | Long-term incentives/equity awards |

---

Our executive officers, including our Named Executive Officers, also participate in the standard employee benefit plans available to most of our employees. In addition, our executive officers are eligible for post-employment (severance and change-in-control) payments and benefits under certain circumstances. Each of these compensation elements is discussed in detail below, including a description of each element and how it fits into our overall executive compensation and a discussion of the compensation amounts paid to our executive officers, including our Named Executive Officers, in 2022 under each of these elements.

*Base Salary*

We believe that a competitive base salary is a necessary element of our executive compensation program, so that we can attract and retain a stable management team. Base salaries for our executive officers, including our Named Executive Officers, are also intended to be competitive with those received by other individuals in similar positions at the companies with which we compete for talent, as well as equitable across the executive team.

The Compensation Committee reviews the base salaries of our Named Executive Officers annually and makes adjustments as it determines to be necessary or appropriate based on the individual performance of the Named Executive Officer, our Company performance, any change in the Named Executive Officer's position within our business, and/or the scope of his responsibilities and any changes thereto and/or comparative market data.

In November 2021, the Compensation Committee reviewed the base salaries of our executive officers, taking into consideration a competitive market analysis performed by its compensation consultant and the recommendations of our CEO (except with respect to his own base salary), as well as the other factors described above. Following this

**Snap One Holdings Corp.** 2023 Proxy Statement 35

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

review, the Compensation Committee determined to adjust the base salaries of our executive officers, including our Named Executive Officers, to levels it believed were appropriate to maintain their competitiveness. The base salaries of our Named Executive Officers for 2022 were as follows:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| &nbsp;&nbsp;**Named Executive Officer** | **2021 <br> Base Salary** | **2022 <br> Base Salary [1]** | **Percentage <br> Adjustment** |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Mr. Heyman | $700000 | $735000 | 5.0% |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Mr. Carlet | $375000 | $400000 | 6.7% |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Mr. Hindman | $355000 | $375000 | 5.6% |

[1] These base salary increases were effective January 1, 2022.

The exact salary amounts paid to our Named Executive Officers during 2022 are set forth in this Proxy Statement in the "*Summary Compensation Table*" below.

*Annual Cash Bonuses*

The Named Executive Officers and other officers and senior managers determined by the Compensation Committee are eligible to receive annual cash incentive bonuses under the 2022 Annual Incentive Plan. We use annual cash incentive bonuses to motivate our bonus-eligible employees, including our Named Executive Officers, to drive continuous improvement year over year and enhance shareholder value, focusing on our short-term financial and operational objectives. Consistent with our compensation philosophy, these annual incentive bonuses are intended to help us to deliver a competitive total direct compensation opportunity to our bonus-eligible employees. Annual cash bonuses are entirely Company performance-based, are not guaranteed, and may vary materially from year to year.

Typically, the Compensation Committee establishes cash incentive bonus opportunities pursuant to a formal cash bonus plan that rewards our bonus-eligible employees based on the achievement of different measures of our corporate performance over our fiscal year. The cash incentive bonus plan is designed to pay above-target bonuses when we exceed our annual corporate objectives and below-target bonuses when we do not achieve these objectives.

In November 2021, the Compensation Committee determined to award cash incentive bonus opportunities to our bonus-eligible employees, including our Named Executive Officers, pursuant to the cash bonus plan for 2022 (the "2022 Annual Incentive Plan"). Under the 2022 Annual Incentive Plan, the Compensation Committee had the authority to select the performance measures and related target levels applicable to the annual cash bonus opportunities for our plan participants. The performance measures involving our financial results could be determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP"), or such financial results could consist of non-GAAP financial measures, and any actual results were subject to adjustment by the Compensation Committee for one-time items or unbudgeted or unexpected items when determining actual performance against the target levels for the performance measures.

The Compensation Committee retained the right to, in its sole discretion, amend or change Company performance targets under the 2022 Annual Incentive Plan to adjust for unusual or one-time changes to the business, such as the Company's merger and acquisition activity; no such adjustments were made in 2022.

*Target Annual Cash Bonus Opportunities*

For 2022, the target annual cash bonus opportunities for each of our Named Executive Officers under the 2022 Annual Incentive Plan, expressed as a percentage of his annual base salary, were as follows:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| &nbsp;&nbsp;**Named Executive Officer** | **Annual <br> Base Salary** | **Target Annual <br> Cash Bonus<br> Opportunity (% of <br> Annual Base Salary)** | **Target Annual <br> Cash Bonus <br> Opportunity ($)** |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Mr. Heyman | $735000 | 100% | $735000 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Mr. Carlet | $400000 | 75% | $300000 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Mr. Hindman | $375000 | 100% | $375000 |

---

The performance measures used for determining payouts against target amounts under the 2022 Annual Incentive Plan for all plan participants, including our Named Executive Officers, were (i) the Company's adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization as approved by the Board and reported in the Company's 2023 financial reports filed with the SEC ("Adjusted EBITDA"), which was weighted 80%, and (ii) the Company's net sales calculated in accordance with GAAP ("Net Sales"), which was weighted 20%. (Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure which is reconciled to Net Loss in the Appendix to this Proxy Statement.) The Compensation Committee determined this allocation to be appropriate to focus our bonus-eligible employees, including our Named Executive Officers, on our short-term financial objectives as reflected in our annual operating plan while, at the same time, recognizing their contributions to the achievement of these objectives and setting the expectation that they successfully execute their individual roles and responsibilities. The Compensation Committee and the Board have the discretion to decrease any Named Executive Officer's bonus compensation based on the Board's or the Compensation Committee's assessment of each Named Executive Officer's individual performance during the year.

*Corporate Performance Objectives*

| | | | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| &nbsp;&nbsp;**Corporate <br> Performance Metric <br> (in $millions)** | &nbsp;&nbsp;**Weighting** | &nbsp;&nbsp;**Minimum<br> Threshold <br> (in $ millions)** | &nbsp;&nbsp;**Target <br> ($ in<br> millions)** | &nbsp;&nbsp;**Maximum <br> (in $ millions)** | &nbsp;&nbsp;**Payout <br> at the<br> Minimum<br> Threshold** | &nbsp;&nbsp;**Maximum<br> Payout** |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;2022 Company Adjusted EBITDA | &nbsp;&nbsp;80% | &nbsp;&nbsp;104.3 | &nbsp;&nbsp;123.2 | &nbsp;&nbsp;132.7 | &nbsp;&nbsp;0% | &nbsp;&nbsp;150% |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;2022 Company Net Sales | &nbsp;&nbsp;20% | &nbsp;&nbsp;1154 | &nbsp;&nbsp;1212 | &nbsp;&nbsp;1270 | &nbsp;&nbsp;50% | &nbsp;&nbsp;150% |

---

The payout scales for each performance metric were calibrated to payout 100% of the Target Annual Cash Bonus Opportunity at the Target achievement level. For results between the Minimum Threshold and the Target, payout percentages would be calculated using linear interpolation from the minimum percent noted in the table above up to the Target of 100%. For Company achievement above the Target and below the Maximum, payout percentages would be calculated using linear interpolation from the Target of 100% up to the Maximum payment of 150%. For results at or below the Minimum Threshold, the payout percentage for that performance metric would be 0%. For results at or above the Maximum, the payout percentage for that performance metric was capped at 150%.

*2022 Performance Results and Bonus Decisions*

On March 14, 2023, the Compensation Committee determined that our actual achievement with respect to the Company performance criteria for purposes of the 2022 Annual Incentive Plan was as follows:

---

| | | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| &nbsp;&nbsp;**Adjusted EBITDA<br> Target Level (in $ millions)** | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**Adjusted <br> EBITDA <br> Actual <br> Result <br> (in $ millions)** | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**Payout Percentage <br> for Adjusted EBITDA<br> Achievement <br> (percentage of payout <br> for target level of <br> performance)** | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**Net Sales<br> Target Level <br> (in $ millions)** | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**Net Sales <br> Actual <br> Result <br> (in $ millions)** | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**Payout <br> Percentage <br> for Net Sales <br> Achievement<br> (percentage<br> of payout for<br> target level of<br> performance)** |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;123.2 | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;114.1 | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;51.9% | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;$1212 | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;$1124 | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;0% |

---

The Compensation Committee determined that, based on our actual performance with respect to Adjusted EBITDA and Net Sales combined, total payouts under the 2022 Annual Incentive Plan would be 41.5% of the blended total target amount. Based on its review of our corporate performance, the Compensation Committee approved bonus payments as follows for our Named Executive Officers:

---

| | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| &nbsp;&nbsp;**Named Executive <br> Officer** | **Target Annual<br> Cash Bonus <br> Opportunity** | **Amount Related <br> to Adjusted<br> EBITDA** | **Amount Related <br> to Net Sales** | **Actual Annual <br> Cash Bonus<br> Payment** |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Mr. Heyman | $735000 | $305025 | $0 | $305025 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Mr. Carlet | $300000 | $124500 | $0 | $124500 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Mr. Hindman | $375000 | $155625 | $0 | $155625 |

---

The annual cash awards paid to our Named Executive Officers for 2022 are included in the "*2022 Summary Compensation Table*" below.

*Long-Term Incentive Compensation*

We deliver long-term incentive compensation in the form of equity awards to motivate our executive officers, including our Named Executive Officers, by providing them with the opportunity to build an equity interest in the Company and to share in the potential appreciation of the value of our common stock. At the time of our IPO in 2021, we converted previously granted equity into restricted stock awards ("RSA") that become unrestricted shares of common stock as the restrictions lapse and we also issued options intended to preserve the upside of such previously granted equity that would otherwise have been lost as a result of such equity conversion. In 2022, pursuant to our 2021 Equity Incentive Plan, the Compensation Committee decided to grant performance stock unit ("PSU") awards that may be earned, vest, and settled for shares of our common stock and restricted stock unit ("RSU") awards that may vest and be settled for shares of our common stock.

We believe PSU awards serve as an effective source of motivation to our executive officers to drive our financial performance. In addition, PSU awards provide a direct link between compensation and stockholder return, thereby motivating our executive officers to focus on and strive to achieve long-term financial and strategic objectives.

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

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

We further believe RSU awards provide a reward for growth in the value of our common stock and are less dilutive than stock options to our stockholders. Since their value increases with any increase in the value of the underlying shares, RSU awards provide an incentive to generate sustained lasting increases in the value of our stock over the long term. Unlike stock options, however, RSU awards have real economic value when they vest even if the market price of our common stock declines or stays flat, thus delivering more predictable value to our executive officers. In addition, because they are subject to a multi-year vesting requirement, RSU awards serve our retention objectives since our executive officers must remain continuously employed by us through the applicable vesting dates to fully earn these awards.

The Compensation Committee views equity awards, whether the awards are subject to time-based vesting requirements or are to be earned based on the attainment of specific performance objectives, as inherently variable since the grant date fair value of these awards may not necessarily be indicative of their value when, and if, the shares of our common stock underlying these awards are ever earned. The Compensation Committee further believes these awards enable us to attract and retain key talent in our industry and aligns our executive officers' interests with the long-term interests of our stockholders.

Generally, in determining the size of the equity awards granted to our executive officers, the Compensation Committee takes into consideration the recommendations of our CEO (except with respect to his own equity award), as well as the factors described above. The Compensation Committee also considers the dilutive effect of our long-term incentive compensation practices, and the overall impact that these equity awards, as well as awards to other employees, will have on stockholder value.

On February 10, 2022, our Board of Directors approved equity awards for our executive officers, including our Named Executive Officers. In determining the amount of each executive officer's equity award, our Board considered the recommendations of the Compensation Committee, which had been formulated after taking into consideration the recommendations of our CEO (except with respect to his own equity award), as well as the factors described above. The Compensation Committee also considered the existing equity holdings of each executive officer, including the current economic value of their unvested equity awards and the ability of these unvested holdings to satisfy our retention objectives.

These equity awards consisted of both PSU awards and RSU awards. The equity awards granted to our Named Executive Officers in 2022 were as follows:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| &nbsp;&nbsp;**Named Executive <br> Officer** | **Performance Stock <br> Unit Awards (target <br> number of shares)** | **Restricted Stock Unit<br> Awards (number of<br> shares)** | **Aggregate Annual <br> Grant Value** |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Mr. Heyman | 91203 | 91203 | $3732027 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Mr. Carlet | 28736 | 28736 | $1175877 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Mr. Hindman | 26940 | 26940 | $1102385 |

---

The number of shares was calculated based on the closing price of our common stock on February 4, 2022, $19.14. The Grant Date for these awards was February 15, 2022, which was the date used to calculate the value of the shares in the table above.

**Snap One Holdings Corp.** 2023 Proxy Statement 39

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

*RSU Awards*

The RSU awards granted to our executive officers, including the Named Executive Officers, on February 15, 2022 were subject to a time-based vesting requirement providing that these awards are to vest as follows: 25% of the units subject to the award vest on the first anniversary of the Vesting Commencement Date, and an additional 1/16<sup>th</sup> of the units subject to the award vest quarterly thereafter, assuming the continued service of the executive officers on each such vesting date. Each unit granted pursuant to the RSU awards represents a contingent right to receive one share of our common stock for each unit vested during the vesting period.

*PSU Awards*

The number of PSU awards granted to each of our Named Executive Officers (as set forth in the table above) represents the target number of units subject to each award. The number of units our Named Executive Officers could earn was based on the Company's level of achievement of certain Adjusted EBITDA and Net Sales metrics established for the Company's 2022 fiscal year. PSU awards granted represent the target number of units subject to each award. The target number of units our Named Executive Officers were to receive was to be based on our achievement of Adjusted EBITDA and Net Sales over the one-year performance period as they relate to the Company's 2022 budget. These performance metrics were subject to change at the discretion of the Compensation Committee to account for any changes in our business that the Compensation Committee determines to be significant, such as mergers and acquisitions.

The overall award achievement is weighted average of the two results (65% Adjusted EBITDA and 35% Net Sales) based on the performance thresholds listed in the table below:

---

| | | | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| &nbsp;&nbsp;**Corporate <br> Performance Metric <br> (in $Millions)** | **Weighting** | **Minimum<br> Threshold <br> (in $ millions)** | **Target <br> ($ in <br> millions)** | **Maximum <br> (in $ millions)** | **Payout <br> at the<br> Minimum<br> Threshold** | **Payout <br> at the<br> Maximum** |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;2022 Company Adjusted EBITDA | 65% | 104.3 | 123.2 | 132.7 | 0% | 200% |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;2022 Company Net Sales | 35% | 1124 | 1212 | 1270 | 50% | 200% |

---

The number of units to be earned by a Named Executive Officer was to be determined as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• If the minimum threshold for Adjusted EBITDA was reached, the Named Executive Officer would receive 0% of the Adjusted EBITDA portion of the target award; if the threshold for Net Sales was reached, the NEO would receive 50% of the Net Sales portion of the target award.

• If the actual performance for each performance metric (Adjusted EBITDA and Net Sales) equaled the target level, the percentage of the award amount for that metric earned would be 100% of the target amount.

• If the actual performance for each performance metric (Adjusted EBITDA and Net Sales) equaled or exceeded the maximum level, the percentage of the award amount for that metric earned would be capped at 200% of the target amount.

• If the actual performance for each performance metric (Adjusted EBITDA and Net Sales) exceeded the minimum threshold level and was less than the target level, the percentage of the award amount for that metric earned would be calculated using linear interpolation between the minimum threshold and target amounts.

• If the actual performance for each performance metric (Adjusted EBITDA and Net Sales) exceeded the target level and was less than the maximum level, the percentage of the award amount for that metric earned would be calculated using linear interpolation between the target and maximum amounts.

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

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

For clarity, the calculations above were not cumulative, and the maximum achievement for each metric was 200% of the target award units.

Once the performance metrics were certified by our Board, the resulting number of units vest in accordance with the following schedule: 1/3 of the awarded units vest on the first anniversary of the Vesting Commencement Date (or if the performance metrics have not yet been certified by that time, then on the date on which the performance metrics are certified), and an additional 1/3 of the awarded units vest on each of the following two anniversaries of the Vesting Commencement Date thereafter. Each unit granted pursuant to the PSU awards represents a contingent right to receive one share of our common stock for each unit vested during the vesting period.

*Earning of 2022 PSU Awards*

On March 14, 2023, the Compensation Committee determined that our actual achievement with respect to the Company performance criteria for purposes of the PSU Awards was as follows:

---

| | | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| &nbsp;&nbsp;**Adjusted <br> EBITDA <br> Target Level <br> (in $ millions)** | **Adjusted <br> EBITDA <br> Actual <br> Result <br> (in <br> $ millions)** | **Payout <br> Percentage for <br> Adjusted <br> EBITDA <br> Achievement <br> (percentage of <br> payout for <br> target <br> level of <br> performance)** | **Net Sales <br> Target <br> Level (in <br> $ millions)** | **Net Sales<br> Actual <br> Result (in <br> $ millions)** | **Payout <br> Percentage<br> for Net Sales <br> Achievement <br> (percentage <br> of payout for <br> target <br> level of<br> performance)** |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;123.2 | 114.1 | 51.9% | $1212 | $1124 | 50% |

---

The Compensation Committee determined that, based on our actual performance with respect to Adjusted EBITDA and Net Sales combined, PSU awards were earned at 51% of the target level, with each Named Executive Officer earning the number of PSU awards set forth next to his name in the following table. Such earned PSU awards will vest and be settled for the number of shares of our common stock set forth next to each Named Executive Officer's name on the dates shown in the table below, assuming the continued service of such Named Executive Officer on each such vesting date:

---

| | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| &nbsp;&nbsp;**Named Executive<br> Officer** | **Earned PSU <br> awards<br> (number of<br> units)** | **Units Settled <br> for Shares of <br> Our Common <br> Stock <br> 3/14/2023** | **Units to Be <br> Settled for <br> Shares of Our <br> Common Stock <br> 2/15/2024** | **Units to Be <br> Settled for <br> Shares of Our <br> Common Stock <br> 2/15/2025** |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Mr. Heyman | 46514 | 15503 | 15503 | 15508 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Mr. Carlet | 14656 | 4885 | 4885 | 4886 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Mr. Hindman | 13740 | 4580 | 4580 | 4580 |

---

Each Named Executive Officer was required to be in continuous service with us as of March 14, 2023 in order for his PSUs to become earned. If their service terminated for any reason prior to March 14, 2023, all PSUs would be forfeited, unless accelerated or extended pursuant a covered termination as set forth the 2023 Executive's Employment Agreement or the Company's Retirement Provisions, each as described further in this Compensation Discussion and Analysis below.

**Snap One Holdings Corp.** 2023 Proxy Statement 41

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

The equity awards granted to our Named Executive Officers in 2022 are set forth in this Proxy Statement in the "*Summary Compensation Table*" below.

*Section 401(k) Plan*

We maintain a tax-qualified retirement plan under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code") for our employees aged 21 or older, including our executive officers, who satisfy certain eligibility requirements, including requirements relating to age and length of service. The plan provides them with an opportunity to contribute a portion of their annual earnings, up to the limits set by the Code, for retirement on a pre-tax or after-tax (Roth) basis. We intend for this plan to qualify under Sections 401(a) and 501(a) of the Code so that contributions by employees to the plan, and income earned on plan contributions, are not taxable to employees until distributed from the plan. In addition, all contributions are deductible by us when made.

We make matching contributions to participating employees' plan accounts equal to 100% of the first 3% of earnings that an employee elects to contribute, plus 50% of the next 3% of earnings that an employee elects to contribute, limited to the maximum annual amount as established by the Internal Revenue Service. Matching contributions are 100% vested when made.

We do not offer our employees a non-qualified deferred compensation plan or a defined benefit, pension, or similar plan.

*Health and Welfare Benefits*

We provide other benefits to our executive officers, including our Named Executive Officers, on the same basis as all of our employees. These benefits include medical, dental, and vision insurance, disability insurance, life insurance, accidental death and dismemberment insurance, and health savings accounts and health and dependent care flexible spending accounts. We also provide vacation and other paid holidays to all employees, including our executive officers.

We design our employee benefits programs to be affordable and competitive in relation to the market, as well as compliant with applicable laws and practices. We adjust our employee benefits programs as needed based upon regular monitoring of applicable laws and practices, the competitive market, and our employees' needs.

*Perquisites and Other Personal Benefits*

Except as described below, we do not view perquisites or other personal benefits as a significant component of our executive compensation program. Accordingly, we do not provide perquisites to our executive officers, including our Named Executive Officers, except in situations where we believe it is appropriate to assist an individual in the performance of his or her duties, to make our executive officers more efficient and effective, and for recruitment and retention purposes.

Under our Executive Product Experience Program, as a benefit and in order to provide improved developmental feedback on our solutions, our executive officers at the level of Executive Vice President and above who install and use our products in their primary residence are eligible to receive up to $25,000 in such products, valued at our cost, without charge, and we will reimburse the executive officer for 75% of up to $25,000 in integrator services and other costs. In addition, each year thereafter the executive officer is eligible to receive our beta products as

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

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

available up to $7,500 in new products, valued at our cost, without charge, and we will reimburse the executive officer for 70% of up to $5,000 in integrator services and other costs. An executive officer who voluntarily leaves us within 24 months after the initial installation must reimburse us for all costs for the products and services provided.

In addition, we reimburse our CEO for his *pro rata* share of the maintenance and storage costs of a private airplane in which he owns a 25% interest and for the reasonable costs of travel on such airplane for business purposes and travel between his residence and our executive offices, up to an annual maximum of $150,000. There have been no such costs for fiscal year 2022. We also pay a portion of the membership fees for Mr. Hindman to belong to an executive leadership organization and reimburse him for his travel expenses to attend the organization's meetings.

During 2022, none of the Named Executive Officers received perquisites or other personal benefits that were, in the aggregate, $10,000 or more for each Named Executive Officer, except for Mr. Heyman, who was reimbursed $31,250 for equipment, integrator services and other costs in connection with the installation of Company products in his primary residence.

In the future, we may provide perquisites or other personal benefits to our executive officers in limited circumstances, such as where we believe it is appropriate to assist an individual executive officer in the performance of his or her duties, to make our executive officers more efficient and effective, and for recruitment, motivation or retention purposes. We do not expect that these perquisites or other personal benefits will be a significant aspect of our executive compensation program. All future practices with respect to perquisites or other personal benefits will be approved and subject to periodic review by the Compensation Committee.

**Executive Employment Arrangements**

During 2022, the following Employment arrangements were in effect: an amended and restated employment agreement with our CEO and written employment offer letters with each of our other Named Executive Officers. For details regarding these arrangements, see "*Summary Compensation Table — Executive Employments Agreements*" herein.

Each of these Executive Employment Agreements provides for severance payments and benefits in the event of the termination of the Named Executive Officer's employment under certain circumstances, as described below the section entitled "*Post-Employment Compensation*" in this Compensation Discussion and Analysis.

**Post-Employment Compensation**

Each of our Named Executive Officer's current employment arrangements includes provisions pursuant to which they are eligible to receive certain post-employment compensation payments and benefits in the event their employment is terminated. These provisions are further described herein under "*Termination and Change in Control Provisions — Severance*."

We do not reimburse our executives for excise tax payments (or "gross-ups") relating to a change in control of the Company and have no such obligations in place with respect to any of our Named Executive Officers.

We believe that having in place reasonable and competitive post-employment compensation arrangements is essential to attracting and retaining highly qualified executive officers. The Compensation Committee does not consider the specific amounts payable under the post-employment compensation arrangements when determining

**Snap One Holdings Corp.** 2023 Proxy Statement 43

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

the annual compensation for our Named Executive Officers. We do believe, however, these arrangements are necessary to offer compensation packages that are competitive.

*Retirement Provisions*

In September 2022, our Board adopted retirement guidelines for eligible employees, including our Named Executive Officers, who become eligible to retire at age 62 so long as: (i) they have been employed by us (inclusive of companies that we have acquired) for at least 10 years and remain in good standing with us and (ii) they give us at least six months' written notice prior to their retirement date (a "Qualified Retirement"). As of the date hereof, none of the Named Executive Officers have met the conditions set forth in the definition of Qualified Retirement. Upon a Qualified Retirement, the eligible employee's outstanding equity awards that were granted after November 1, 2022 and prior to the effective date of retirement may continue to vest in accordance with the following guidelines:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• RSU awards and RSA awards will continue to vest in accordance with their respective vesting schedules as set forth in the applicable
 award agreement.

• PSU awards related to Performance Periods that have already been completed by the retirement date will continue to vest in the
 amounts specified by the performance conditions achieved in accordance with the vesting schedule set forth in the applicable award
 agreement.

• PSU awards related to Performance Periods that are ongoing at the time of the retirement date will be eligible to vest on a pro
 rata basis, so that the number of PSU awards that may vest will equal: (i) the total PSUs achieved in accordance with the actual
 achievement of the performance conditions multiplied by (ii) a percentage equal to the number of days the retiree was employed during
 the award's applicable performance period divided by the total number of days in the award's applicable performance period.
 The pro-rata number of PSUs calculated in accordance with the preceding sentence will vest in accordance with the vesting schedule
 set forth in the applicable award agreement.

• PSU awards related to Performance Periods commencing after the date of retirement will expire.

• "Performance Period" means the specific period of time during which a performance condition, or collection of related
 performance conditions, specified in applicable award agreement is measured.

*Acceleration of Vesting upon Death or Disability*

In February 2023, the Board amended its 2021 Equity Incentive Plan so that the vesting of all of a participant's unvested equity awards issued pursuant to the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan will automatically accelerate upon death or Disability (as defined in the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan) of the participant.

For a summary of the material terms and conditions of the severance provisions, see "*Termination and Change in Control Provisions*" below.

*Non-Interference Agreements*

Each of our Named Executive Officers has entered into separate non-interference agreements, which subject them to the following restrictive covenants that apply during the terms of their employment and for one year thereafter: non-competition, employee and consultant non-solicitation, employee no-hire, and non-interference covenants (with the last such covenant prohibiting interference with the relationship between the Company and its business relations, such as current or prospective clients, customers, licensees, suppliers, and vendors). These non-interference agreements also include perpetual confidentiality, non-disparagement and assignment of intellectual property covenants.

**Other Compensation Policies**

*Stock Ownership Policy*

In 2021, our Board adopted mandatory stock ownership guidelines for our CEO, other executive officers and non-employee directors receiving compensation for their services as a director ("Guideline Participants"). These guidelines are intended to align the interests of our Guideline Participants with those of our stockholders by requiring them to acquire and maintain a meaningful equity stake in the Company.

These guidelines are based on the individual holding shares of our common stock with a value equal to a multiple of his or her annual base salary or annual cash retainer, as follows:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| &nbsp;&nbsp;**Leadership Position** | **Market Value of Shares** |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Chief Executive Officer | 6x annual base salary |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Executive Direct Reports of our CEO | 3x annual base salary |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Other Executive Vice Presidents | 1.5x annual base salary |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Non-Employee Directors | 5x annual cash retainer (excluding any committee retainers) |

---

For purposes of this calculation, stock ownership includes (i) vested and unvested shares of common stock owned directly, including restricted shares and shares deliverable upon settlement of restricted or unrestricted stock units, excluding restricted shares or restricted stock units that remain subject to achievement of performance goals, such as performance share units; and (ii) shares of our common stock owned indirectly if the Guideline Participant has an economic interest in the shares (which includes shares beneficially owned for purposes of the Exchange Act). Stock ownership does not include shares underlying stock options, except to the extent expressly provided in the guidelines. Each Guideline Participant is expected to satisfy these stock guidelines within five years of becoming subject to the guidelines, and the Named Executive Officers are already meeting these guidelines.

At any time when a Guideline Participant has not met the stock ownership guidelines applicable to such Guideline Participant as set forth above, such participant will be expected to retain not less than 50% of the "net shares" he or she receives from equity-based awards granted by us upon vesting or exercise.

*Compensation Recovery Policy*

Snap One has adopted a formal compensation recovery ("clawback") policy called the Incentive Compensation Clawback Policy. For purposes of our clawback policy, "incentive compensation" means annual performance bonuses and long-term incentive awards (in each case, including but not limited to cash, stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance share units or other equity-based awards) paid, granted, vested, settled, or accrued.

Pursuant to our Incentive Compensation Clawback Policy, if the Compensation Committee determines, in its discretion, that incentive compensation of a current or former officer ("Covered Employee") was overpaid as a result of a restatement of the Company's reported financial results due to material non-compliance with financial reporting requirements (unless due to a change in accounting policy or law) caused by the Covered Employee's fraud, willful misconduct, or gross negligence, the Compensation Committee will review the incentive compensation paid based on the prior inaccurate results. Then, to the extent practicable, the Compensation Committee will determine, in its discretion, whether to seek to recover or cancel the difference between: (i) any incentive compensation paid or granted based on the belief that the Company had met or exceeded performance targets that would not have been

met had the financial information been accurate, and (ii) the incentive compensation in which the Covered Employee would have been paid based on the accurate financial information or restated results, as applicable.

In addition, we intend to amend our Incentive Compensation Clawback Policy to the extent necessary once the Nasdaq has adopted an SEC-approved listing standard that complies with Exchange Act Rule 10D-1.

| [1] | These rows represent shares of restricted stock that were issued in connection with the IPO in replacement of former Class B-2 Units of Crackle Holdings, L.P. ("Holdings" or our "Former Parent"), our former parent company. The Grant Date listed is the date the original award was made; the issuance of restricted stock occurred on July 27, 2021. Prior to the Equity Conversion, Class B-2 Units vested based upon the satisfaction of an explicit service period and a market condition. The shares of restricted stock issued in replacement of the Class B-2 Units vest based upon achievement of one or more of: (i) a total return hurdle, (ii) an average return hurdle and/or (iii) a volume weighted average price hurdle, which are substantially the same as the previous market-condition vesting criteria of the Class B-2 Units (discussed below). Although the restricted stock that replaced the Class B-2 Units does not contain an explicit service condition, the vesting is subject to continued employment and the restricted stock will be forfeited if these hurdles, which include both market and performance conditions, are not achieved on or prior to February 4, 2024. For additional details on the vesting terms of the restricted stock issued in replacement of the Class B-2 Units, see "*Equity Compensation Plan Information — Restricted Stock Awards*" below. Dollar amounts in the adjacent column represent the value of the shares of restricted stock received in replacement of the former Class B-2 Units, based on the closing price of a share of our common stock on December 30, 2022 ($7.41 per share). |
| [2] | These rows represent shares of restricted stock that were issued in connection with the IPO in preplacement of former time-vesting Class B-1 Units of Holdings. The Grant Date listed is the date the original award was made; the issuance of RSAs occurred on July 27, 2021. The RSAs issued in replacement of unvested Class B-1 Units were of commensurate value and did not result in any incremental fair value provided to the holders of such awards. The restricted shares of common stock that the holders received in replacement of their unvested Class B-1 Units are subject to the same vesting terms that applied to the Class B-1 Units prior to the Equity Conversion. 20% of the units vest on the first anniversary of the Vesting Commencement Date, and 10% would vest every six months thereafter (commencing on the sixth-month anniversary of the initial vesting date and ending on the five-year anniversary of the Vesting Commencement Date), subject to continued employment through the applicable vesting dates. For additional details on the vesting terms of the restricted stock issued in replacement of the Class B-1 Units, see "*Equity Compensation Plan Information — Restricted Stock Awards*" below. The "Vesting Commencement Date" is (i) the grant date with respect to the Class B-1 Units granted on October 23, 2017 and (ii) August 1, 2019 with respect to the Class B-1 Units granted on<br> August 28, 2019. Dollar amounts in the adjacent column represent the value of the shares of restricted stock received in replacement of the former Class B-1 Units, based on the closing price of a share of our common stock on December 30, 2022 ($7.41 per share). |
| [3] | These rows represent the vested and unvested options granted to holders of former Class B-1 Units which were intended to preserve the upside of the Class B-1 Units as of immediately prior to the IPO that would otherwise have been lost as a result of the Equity Conversion. These options are subject to vesting as follows: 20% of these options vest on the first anniversary of the Vesting Commencement Date, and an additional 10% vest every six months thereafter, subject to continued employment. The Vesting Commencement Date for each option grant is ten years prior to the Option expiration date. |
| [4] | These rows represent unvested options granted to holders of former Class B-2 Units, which were intended to preserve the upside of the Class B-2 Units as of immediately prior to the IPO that would otherwise have been lost as a result of the Equity Conversion. These options vest based upon the achievement of one or more of: (i) a total return hurdle, (ii) an average return hurdle and/or (iii) a volume weighted average price hurdle, which are substantially the same as the previous market-condition vesting criteria of the Class B-2 Units. The vesting is subject to continued employment and the options will be forfeited if these hurdles, which include both market and performance conditions, are not achieved on or prior to February 4, 2024. |
| [5] | These rows represent the unvested RSUs and PSUs granted under the Company's 2021 Equity Incentive Plan. The RSU awards vest as follows: 1/4 of the shares vested on February 15, 2023 the first anniversary of the Vesting Commencement Date and an additional 1/16 of the shares vest quarterly thereafter until all RSUs have vested. The PSUs listed represent the target number of PSUs subject to the award. The number of shares the recipient will receive under this PSU award was determined to be 51% of the target number of Units based on the Company's achievement of the performance metrics as they relate to the 2022 Company budget: 46,514 shares for Mr. Heyman, 14,656 shares for Mr. Carlet and 13,740 shares for Mr. Hindman. One-third of those shares vested on March 14, 2023 and one-third will vest on each of February 15, 2024 and February 15, 2025, assuming the continued service of the Named Executive Officers on each such vesting date. See "*Compensation Elements — Earning of 2022 PSU Awards*" in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis above. Dollar amounts in the adjacent column represent the value of the RSUs or PSUs based on the closing price of a share of our common stock on December 30, 2022 ($7.41 per share). |

**Restricted Stock Awards**

Our Former Parent maintained the 2017 Incentive Plan until such plan was dissolved in connection with the IPO. Pursuant to such plan, our Former Parent granted Incentive Units to certain employees, directors and other service providers of our Former Parent and its subsidiaries (including our Named Executive Officers). In connection with our IPO, all outstanding unvested Incentive Units, including those held by our Named Executive Officers, were replaced with newly issued restricted shares of our common stock on the basis of a ratio that took into account the number of unvested Incentive Units held, the distribution threshold applicable to such Incentive Units, and the value of distributions that the holder would have been entitled to receive had our Former Parent liquidated on the date of such replacement in accordance with the terms of the distribution "waterfall" set forth in the Former Parent's Partnership Agreement. Vested Incentive Units were exchanged into shares of our common stock using the same formula. In addition, (i) the unvested restricted shares of our common stock the Named Executive Officers received in respect of their unvested Class B-1 Units are subject to the same vesting terms that applied to the Class B-1 Units prior to the conversion of equity in our Former Parent to equity in the Company effectuated by the IPO on July 27, 2021 (the "Equity Conversion"), and (ii) the unvested restricted shares of our common stock that the NEOs received in respect of their Class B-2 Units vest based upon achievement of one or more of (A) the Total Return

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

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

Hurdle, (B) the Average Return Hurdle and/or (C) the VWAP Hurdle (each as defined below) (together, the "Class B Unit Achievement Hurdles"), as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•  ***Total Return Hurdle*** :
100% of the restricted shares will vest in the event H&F receives cash proceeds in respect of its investment in the Company (i.e.
cash distributions paid to H&F or cash proceeds received from the sale of any of its equity interests in the Company) that equal or
exceed $1,399,409,115 in the aggregate ("Total Return Hurdle"). If the Total Return Hurdle is not achieved prior to or in
connection with a change in control of the Company, all restricted shares will be forfeited for no consideration.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•  ***Average Return Hurdle*** :
100% of the restricted shares will vest upon an Exit Trade (as defined below) if the cash received in respect of the Sponsor Shares (as
defined below) sold prior to and including the Exit Trade exceeds (a) the Price Target (defined as $25.25 per share of our common stock)
multiplied by (b) the Sponsor Shares sold prior to and inclusive of the Exit Trade ("Average Return Hurdle"). In addition,
upon each trade or other sale of Sponsor Shares following the Exit Trade, but prior to the time in which H&F ceases to hold any of
the Initial Sponsor Shares, if the Average Return Hurdle is satisfied, 100% of restricted shares will vest. An "Exit Trade"
is any trade or other sale of common stock issued to H&F in connection with the IPO in respect of Class A Units of our Former Parent
held by H&F (each, a "Sponsor Share," and the aggregate Sponsor Shares so received by the H&F, the "Initial
Sponsor Shares") following which H&F holds 10% or less of the Initial Sponsor Shares.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•  ***VWAP Hurdle*** :
The restricted shares will also vest if certain volume weighted average price ("VWAP") hurdles are achieved, as follows: prior
to an Exit Trade, or following an Exit Trade to the extent such trade does not result in satisfaction of the Average Return Hurdle, if,
during the period commencing on the earlier of (a) the first anniversary of the IPO or (b) the first Exit Trade, and ending on February
4, 2024, the price per share of common stock, measured using a 30-day VWAP, is at least equal to the Price Target (the "VWAP Hurdle"),
then: 42% of the restricted shares will vest on August 4, 2022 (or such later date on which the VWAP Hurdle is achieved), an additional
42% of the restricted shares will vest on August 4, 2023 (or such later date on which the VWAP Hurdle is achieved), and the remaining
16% of the restricted shares will vest on February 4, 2024.

Vesting with respect to the restricted shares received in respect of Class B-2 Units is subject to such Named Executive Officer's continued employment through the applicable vesting dates. To the extent any such restricted shares have not vested on or prior to February 4, 2024, any such unvested restricted shares will be forfeited for no consideration. Each of the NEOs was required to enter into a Non-Interference Agreement as a condition to receiving their respective Incentive Units, and the obligations under said agreement still apply to the RSAs. Mr. Heyman was also required to reaffirm the restrictive covenants set forth in his employment agreement. For additional details on each Named Executive Officer's restrictive covenants, see "*Employment Agreements*" above. In the event a Named Executive Officer materially breaches (and does not cure) his Non-Interference Agreement or, in the case of Mr. Heyman, the restrictive covenants set forth in his employment agreement, his vested and unvested restricted stock awards would be immediately forfeited.

**Additional Cash Payments with Respect to Incentive Units in Lieu of Participation in the Tax Receivable Agreement**

On July 29, 2021 in connection with our IPO, we executed a tax receivable agreement (the "TRA") with certain pre-IPO owners, including H&F (the "TRA Participants"). The TRA provides for the payment by us to the TRA Participants of 85% of the amount of cash savings, if any, in U.S. federal, state, and local income tax that we actually realize, or are deemed to realize (calculated using certain assumptions), as a result of the utilization of such tax benefits, including certain tax benefits attributable to payments under the TRA. Holders of Incentive Units also received a cash payment equal to $0.12 per vested and unvested Class B-1 and Class B-2 Unit in lieu of participation in the TRA (the "Additional Payment"). For holders of Incentive Units at or above the Executive Vice President-level (including the NEOs):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Additional Payments payable with respect to unvested Class B-1 Units that were scheduled to vest by October 31, 2022 pursuant to the
time-vesting schedule applicable to such Class B-1 Units as of immediately prior to the Equity Conversion were paid to such holder at
the same time as the Equity Conversion. All other

**Snap One Holdings Corp.** 2023 Proxy Statement 53

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

Additional Payments with respect to unvested Class B-1 Units were held in escrow, subject to the same vesting conditions as the restricted stock received in exchange for the Class B-1 Units, but such vesting schedule was accelerated by a certain number of days equal to number of days following the Equity Conversion to October 31, 2022.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Additional Payments with respect to any Class B-2 Units were held in escrow, subject to the same vesting conditions as the related
performance-based restricted shares.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The Additional Payments received by the NEOs in 2021 and 2022 are included
in the amounts reported for those years in the "*All Other Compensation* "
column in the 2022 Summary Compensation Table.

**Termination and Change in Control Provisions**

**Severance**

The employment agreement entered into with Mr. Heyman and offer letter agreements entered into with Mr. Carlet and Mr. Hindman each provide for severance benefits upon certain qualifying terminations of employment.

Under Mr. Heyman's employment agreement:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• If Mr. Heyman's employment is terminated due to his death or disability, he (or his heirs) will be entitled to receive a pro-rated
portion of his annual bonus for the year in which his employment is terminated, based on the number of days he was employed during the
year, which will be payable at the same time annual bonuses for that year are payable to other active employees of the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• If Mr. Heyman's employment is terminated by Mr. Heyman for good reason (as defined in his employment agreement) or by the Company
without cause (as defined in his employment agreement), then the Company will pay Mr. Heyman (i) his base salary for twelve months after
the date of termination (payable in installments, provided that this amount will be paid in a lump sum if the termination occurs within
30 days on or following a "Sponsor Exit" (which means the first to occur of (i) the date on which on which H&F reduces
its direct or indirect equity investment in Company to less than 20% of the outstanding number of shares of Company on a fully diluted
basis or (ii) a sale of Company (as defined in the Former Parent's 2017 Incentive Plan and which includes, for example, a transaction
where more than 50% of Company's outstanding voting securities are acquired or a sale of all or substantially all of Company's
assets)), and (ii) a pro-rated portion of his annual bonus for the year in which his employment is terminated, based on the number of
days he was employed during the year, which will be payable at the same time annual bonuses for that year are payable to other active
employees of the Company.

In addition, if Mr. Heyman elects to continue to participate in the Company's health insurance plans following his termination, the Company will reimburse Mr. Heyman for the cost of his medical and dental insurance premiums, at the same rate the Company contributed to his insurance premiums as of the date of termination, until twelve months after the date of termination or, if earlier, the date Mr. Heyman begins new employment where he is offered participation in a group health plan. Such severance benefits are contingent upon Mr. Heyman's execution and non- revocation of a general release of claims in favor of the Company, and continued compliance with the restrictive covenants set forth in his employment agreement. See also the "*Post-Employment Compensation — Retirement Provisions and — Acceleration of Vesting upon Death or Disability*" herein in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis.

Under Mr. Carlet's offer letter, if Mr. Carlet's employment is terminated by the Company without cause or by Mr. Carlet for good reason (as defined in his offer letter), the Company will pay Mr. Carlet his base salary for six months after the date of termination, subject to Mr. Carlet's execution and non-revocation of a general release of claims in favor of the Company, and continued compliance with the restrictive covenants to which he is subject. See also the "*Post-Employment Compensation — Retirement Provisions and — Acceleration of Vesting upon Death or Disability*" herein in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis.

Under Mr. Hindman's offer letter, if Mr. Hindman's employment is terminated by the Company or by Mr. Hindman for good reason (as defined in the offer letter), the Company will pay Mr. Hindman severance in accordance with its severance guidelines, which would entitle Mr. Hindman to twelve months of base salary pursuant to the terms thereof, subject to his execution and non- revocation of a general release of claims in favor of the Company, and continued compliance with the restrictive covenants to which he is subject.

Related Party Agreements and Transactions

**Arrangements with Our Directors, Executive Officers and Advisors**

Below is a brief summary of the principal terms of the Stockholders Agreements and the Tax Receivable Agreement (the "TRA"), which are qualified in their entirety by reference to the agreements themselves, forms of which are filed as exhibits to our 2022 Annual Report.

**Stockholders Agreement**

In 2021, we entered into a Stockholders Agreement with H&F and the other unit holders of our Former Parent, which included certain of our directors, officers and other employees, in connection with our IPO. This Stockholders Agreement provides that our Board will consist of eight members. H&F has the right to nominate to our Board a number of nominees equal to (x) the total number of directors comprising our Board at such time, multiplied by (y) the percentage of our outstanding common stock held from time to time by H&F, rounded up to the nearest whole number. In addition, the Board is divided into three classes and the directors serve staggered, three-year terms. For so long as we have a classified board, the H&F-nominated Board members will be divided by H&F as evenly as possible among the classes of directors. In addition, pursuant to the Stockholders Agreement, H&F has agreed with the Company to vote in favor of the Company slate that is included in our Proxy Statement. In the event that a H&F nominee ceases to serve as a director for any reason (other than the failure of our stockholders to elect such individual as a director), H&F will be entitled to appoint another nominee to fill the resulting vacancy. The Stockholders Agreement contains provisions that entitle the stockholder parties thereto to certain rights to have their securities registered by us under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"). H&F is entitled to an unlimited number of "demand" registrations, subject to certain limitations. In addition, the stockholder parties to the Stockholders Agreement, including H&F, are entitled to customary "piggyback" registration rights. The Stockholders Agreement provides that we will pay certain expenses of the stockholder parties relating to such registrations and indemnify them against certain liabilities which may arise under the Securities Act.

**Tax Receivable Agreement**

In 2021, in connection with our IPO, we executed the TRA with certain pre-IPO owners affiliated with H&F that participate in the TRA ("TRA Participants"), which provides for payment by the Company to the TRA Participants of 85% of the amount of cash savings, if any, in U.S. federal, state and local income tax that is actually realized, or deemed to be realized (calculated using certain assumptions), as a result of the utilization of such tax benefits, including certain tax benefits attributable to payments under the TRA. Holders of Incentive Units, which included all of the Company's executive officers, also received a cash payment equal to $0.12 per vested and unvested Class B-1 and Class B-2 Unit in lieu of participation in the TRA (the "Additional Payment"). See "*Additional Cash Payments with Respect to Incentive Units in Lieu of Participation in the Tax Receivable Agreement*" herein for additional details, including the vesting schedules of certain Additional Payment amounts held in escrow for our executive officers.

As a result of certain change-of-control provisions, early termination rights and acceleration provisions of the TRA with the TRA Participants described above, we could be required to make payments under the TRA that are greater than or less than the specified percentage of the actual cash tax savings that we realize in respect of the tax benefits subject to the TRA.

**Transactions Benefiting our Controlling Shareholder**

The Company's controlling shareholder, H&F, owns an insurance brokerage vendor used by the Company. For fiscal years 2022 and 2021, the Company incurred $1.1 million and $1.9 million of expenses from this vendor. The Company incurred no expenses for fiscal year 2020 related to this vendor. During 2022, the Company discontinued the use of the vendor as its insurance broker; however the Company's 401(k) plan continued to use the vendor as its plan administrator. No fees were billed to the Company directly for the 401(k) plan administration service. Additionally, H&F also has an ownership interest in a human capital management, payroll, HR service and workforce management vendor used by the Company. For the fiscal years 2022, 2021 and 2020, the Company incurred $0.5 million, $0.5 million and $0.3 million of expenses, respectively, from this vendor.

**Related Persons Transaction Policy**

Our Board adopted a written policy on transactions with related persons, which we refer to as our "related person policy." Our related person policy requires that all "related persons" (as defined in paragraph (a) of Item 404 of Regulation S-K) must promptly disclose to our general counsel any "related person transaction" (defined as any transaction that is anticipated would be reportable by us under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K in which we were or are to be a participant and the amount involved exceeds $120,000 and in which any related person had or will have a direct or indirect material interest) and all material facts with respect thereto. Our Chief Legal Officer must then promptly communicate that information to our Board or to a duly authorized committee thereof. Our related person policy provides that no related person transaction will be executed without the approval or ratification of our Board or a duly authorized committee thereof. It is our policy that any directors interested in a related person transaction must recuse themselves from any vote on a related person transaction in which they have an interest.

Audit Matters

The Audit and Risk Management Committee is responsible for the appointment, compensation, retention and oversight of the independent registered public accounting firm retained to audit the Company's financial statements. The Audit and Risk Management Committee has selected Deloitte & Touche, LLP to serve as our independent registered public accounting firm for fiscal year 2023.

Although ratification is not required by our Bylaws or otherwise, the Board is submitting the selection of Deloitte & Touche, LLP to our stockholders for ratification because we value our stockholders' views on the Company's independent registered public accounting firm. If our stockholders fail to ratify the selection, it will be considered notice to the Board and the Audit and Risk Management Committee to consider the selection of a different firm. Even if the selection is ratified, the Audit and Risk Management Committee in its discretion may select a different independent registered public accounting firm at any time during the year if it determines that such a change would be in the best interests of the Company and our stockholders.

The Audit and Risk Management Committee and the Board believe that the continued retention of Deloitte & Touche, LLP to serve as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm is in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders at this time.

Representatives of Deloitte & Touche, LLP are expected to be present at the Annual Meeting. They also will have the opportunity to make a statement if they desire to do so and are expected to be available to respond to appropriate questions.

**Policy on Board Pre-Approval of Audit and Permissible Non-Audit Services of the Independent Auditors**

The Audit and Risk Management Committee is responsible for appointing, setting compensation and overseeing the work of the independent auditors. In recognition of this responsibility, the Audit and Risk Management Committee shall review and, in its sole discretion, pre-approve all audit and permitted non-audit services to be provided by the independent auditors as provided under the Audit and Risk Management Committee Charter. All audit, audit-related and tax services during fiscal year 2022 were pre-approved by the Audit and Risk Management Committee.

**Information About this Proxy Statement**

***Why You Received this Proxy Statement.*** You have received these Proxy Materials because our Board is soliciting your proxy to vote your shares at the Annual Meeting. This Proxy Statement includes information that we are required to provide to you under the rules of the SEC and that is designed to assist you in voting your shares. We either (1) mailed you a Notice notifying each shareholder entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting how to vote and how to electronically access a copy of this Proxy Statement and our Annual Report for fiscal year ended December 30, 2022 (referred to as the "Proxy Materials") or (2) mailed you a paper copy of the Proxy Materials and a proxy card in paper format. You received these Proxy Materials because you were a shareholder of record as of the close of business on the Record Date. If you would like to receive a paper copy of the Proxy Materials, please follow the instructions for requesting such materials contained in the Notice.

***Beneficial Owners*:** If you hold your shares in a brokerage account or through a bank or another nominee, please check the information that your broker, bank or other holder of record sent to you regarding the availability of Proxy Materials electronically or in paper format.

**Internet Availability of Proxy Materials**

Registered and beneficial shareholders may view and print this Proxy Statement and the Company's 2022 Annual Report at www.proxyvote.com or in the Investor Relations section of the Company's website at https://investors.snapone.com/.

**How to Vote**

***Stockholders of Record.*** If you are a stockholder of record, you may vote in one of the following four ways:

(1) By Internet: You may vote via Internet by following the instructions provided in the Notice or, if you receive your Proxy Materials
by U.S. mail, by following the instructions on the proxy card.

(2) By Telephone: You may vote by calling the telephone number provided in the Notice or, if you receive your Proxy Materials by U.S.
mail, you may vote by following the instructions on the proxy card.

(3) By Mail: If you receive your Proxy Materials by mail, you may complete, sign and return the accompanying proxy card in the postage-paid
envelope provided. Proxies submitted by U.S. mail must be received before the start of the Annual Meeting.

(4) In Person: If you are a stockholder as of the Record Date, you may vote in person at the meeting. Submitting a proxy will not prevent
stockholders from attending the Annual Meeting, revoking their earlier-submitted proxy, and voting in person.

Proxies submitted by telephone or Internet must be received by **11:59 PM ET on May 17, 2023.**

***Beneficial Owners.*** If you are a beneficial owner of shares held in street name, you will receive voting instructions from your brokerage firm, bank or other nominee regarding how to direct them to vote your shares. If you are a street name stockholder, you may not vote your shares on your own behalf at the Annual Meeting unless you obtain a legal proxy from the organization that holds your shares giving you the right to vote the shares at the Annual Meeting.

**Shareholders Entitled to Vote; Quorum Requirement**

Holders of our common stock are entitled to one vote for each share of record held on the Record Date on all matters on which stockholders are entitled to vote generally, including the election or removal of directors. The holders of our common stock do not have cumulative voting rights in the election of directors.

A majority of the shares of all issued and outstanding stock entitled to vote on the Record Date must be present in person or represented by proxy to constitute a quorum. Shares represented by broker non-votes, as described below, and votes to "ABSTAIN" are counted as present and entitled to vote for purposes of determining a meeting quorum. No business may be conducted at the Annual Meeting if a quorum is not present.

As of March 20, 2023, the Record Date for the Annual Meeting, we had 76,217,384 shares of common stock outstanding.

**Snap One Holdings Corp.** 2023 Proxy Statement 69

**Effect of Not Voting and Broker Non-Votes**

If you are a stockholder of record, then your shares will not be voted if you do not provide your proxy, unless you attend and vote in person during the Annual Meeting.

If you are the beneficial owner of shares held in the name of a broker, bank or other nominee and you do not provide that a broker, bank or other nominee with voting instructions, that person will only have discretionary authority to vote on routine matters that come before the Annual Meeting. Under Nasdaq rules, broker, bank or other nominees cannot vote on non-routine matters. Our Proposal 2 (ratify the appointment of Deloitte & Touche, LLP as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 29, 2023) is the only proposal in this Proxy Statement that is considered a routine matter.

Proposal 1, election of three Class II Directors is not considered a routine matter, and without your instructions or attendance at the Annual Meeting, your shares will not be voted on this matter. Shares voted on any matter before a meeting are considered to be present for the purposes of determining the existence of a quorum for the meeting. When shares held by beneficial owners through a broker, bank or other nominee are deemed to be present at a stockholder meeting because a broker, bank or other nominee has exercised discretion to vote on at least one routine matter, but are not voted for a non-routine matter (such as Proposal 1), it is referred to as a "broker non-vote." Broker non-votes are considered to be present for purposes of determining the existence of a quorum, but they are not considered to be shares "entitled to vote," except with respect to routine matters and as such, broker non-votes will not affect the outcome of any non-routine proposals, including Proposal 1.

**Proxies; Revocation**

If you vote by proxy, the individuals named on the proxy card (your "proxies") will vote your shares in the manner you indicate. You may specify whether your shares should be voted for or against all, any or none of the nominees for director and whether your shares should be voted for or against each of the other proposals. If you sign and return the proxy card without indicating your instructions, the proxies will vote your shares as follows:

• **FOR** the election of the three Class II director nominees listed in this Proxy Statement;

• **FOR** the ratification of the appointment of Deloitte & Touche, LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 29, 2023; and

• For or against any other matter properly presented at the Annual Meeting, in the proxies' discretion.

Our Board does not intend to present any business at the Annual Meeting other than the proposals described in this Proxy Statement and knows of no other matters that are likely to be brought before the Annual Meeting. However, if any other matter comes before the Annual Meeting, your proxies will act on such matter in their discretion.

If you are a registered stockholder, you may revoke or change your proxy submitted before the Annual Meeting for any reason by (1) voting in person at the Annual Meeting, (2) submitting a later-dated proxy online (your last vote received before the applicable deadline on the Proxy Notice will be counted), or (3) sending a written revocation that is received before the Annual Meeting to the Corporate Secretary of the Company, c/o Snap One Holdings Corp., 1800 Continental Blvd STE 300, Charlotte, NC 28273. If you are a beneficial owner of shares held in street name, you must contact the holder of record (your bank, broker or other nominee through whom you hold the shares) to revoke a previously authorized proxy.

**Required Votes for Action to be Taken**

(1) Proposal 1: Each director is elected by a plurality vote; the three director nominees receiving the highest number of "FOR"
votes cast, even if less than a majority, will be elected. Abstentions, broker non-votes, and votes to "WITHHOLD" will have
no effect on the outcome.

(2) Proposal 2: The ratification of the appointment of Deloitte & Touche, LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm
for our fiscal year ending December 29, 2023 requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares present or represented by proxy
at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote thereon. You may vote "FOR" or "AGAINST" this proposal, or you may
indicate that you wish to "ABSTAIN" from voting on this proposal. Abstentions have the same effect as votes "AGAINST"
this proposal. Because this is a routine proposal, we do not expect any broker non-votes on this proposal.

**Voting Results**

We will announce preliminary results at the Annual Meeting. We will report final results by filing a Current Report on Form 8-K with the SEC within four business days after the Annual Meeting. If final results are not available at that time, we will provide preliminary voting results in the Form 8-K and will provide the final results in an amendment to the Form 8-K as soon as they become available.

Appendix

**Non-GAAP Financial Measures**

In addition to the financial measures prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP"), our Compensation Discussion and Analysis contains certain non-GAAP financial measures including Adjusted EBITDA. A non-GAAP financial measure is generally defined as a numerical measure of a company's financial or operating performance that excludes or includes amounts so as to be different than the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. We use the non-GAAP measure Adjusted EBITDA to help us monitor the performance of our business, measure our performance, identify trends affecting our business and assist us in making strategic decisions.

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net loss, plus interest expense, net, income tax benefit, depreciation, and amortization, further adjusted to exclude equity-based compensation, acquisition- and integration-related costs and certain other non-recurring, non-core, infrequent or unusual charges as described below.

Adjusted EBITDA is a key measure used by management to understand and evaluate our financial performance, trends and generate future operating plans, make strategic decisions regarding the allocation of capital, and analyze investments in initiatives that are focused on cultivating new markets for our products and services. We believe Adjusted EBITDA is a useful measurement for analysts, investors, and other interested parties to evaluate companies in our markets as they help identify underlying trends that could otherwise be masked by certain expenses that we do not consider indicative of our ongoing performance.

Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool. This measure is not calculated in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled metrics of other companies due to differences among the methods of calculation.

**Forward-Looking Statements**

*This Proxy Statement contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the "safe harbor" provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. We have based these forward-looking statements on our current expectations and projections about future events. Forward-looking statements contained in this Proxy Statement should be considered in light of the many uncertainties that affect our business and specifically those factors discussed from time to time in our public reports filed with the SEC, such as those discussed under the heading, "Risk Factors," in our 2022 Annual Report and as may be updated in our subsequent SEC filings. The forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this report, and, except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to publicly update or review any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise.*
