        <footnote id="F1">These are restricted stock units (&quot;RSUs&quot;) issued under the Ingredion Incorporated Stock Incentive Plan to the Company's outside directors as part of their annual retainer (as further described in Exhibit 10.26 to the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, filed on February 17, 2026). One portion of this grant covers the period from April 1, 2026 to May 19, 2026, and the remaining portion represents the full value of the outside directors' 2026 annual equity retainer, reflecting the Company's shift in 2026 from a calendar-year basis for director stock compensation to a twelve-month cycle aligned with the annual stockholder meeting. The RSUs may be settled only in shares of common stock (one share per RSU) and will vest on May 19, 2027, subject to the Committee's discretion to accelerate vesting upon an outside director's retirement, death, disability, or a Change in Control.</footnote>
