A Message from our Chief Executive Officer

Dear Stockholders:

This year, the company is celebrating the 50th anniversary of the first production of FOX Air Shox. As innovation leaders across various markets, we are fueled by the same passion and mindset that led to that revolutionary FOX product 50 years ago. In addition, our future is focused on a common love for adventure and competitiveness, the guts to chase greatness, and a headstrong will to push boundaries; we break the mold wherever we exist.

As we wrapped up 2023, I can only describe it as a story in two parts, the first half being a general continuation of the strong results of 2022, and the second half, especially after Labor Day, of significant external challenges from OEM demand softness to a UAW strike that impacted our automotive businesses. OEM demand softness remains a headwind persisting into at least the first half of 2024. Even with these external challenges we are pleased to see the continued growth in many parts of the business, helping to offset some of the above-mentioned headwinds. Despite the challenges we face, we must not forget what makes us a leading competitor across many sectors and our commitment to our brand and products that make us the unique company we are today. It is the creativity of our people who question the status quo and use ingenuity to solve problems. It’s also the crucible of competition that shapes our product development. As a result of sticking to our roots, our FOX off-road racers in 2023 achieved 180 Pro Class podiums, 36 Pro podium sweeps, and a 9th consecutive Crandon World Cup victory. Moreover, our bike athletes excelled at the highest level of mountain bike racing, with 28 World Cup wins and 4 World Championship titles.

It takes grit and perseverance, partnering with professional athletes who challenge us to deliver championship winning solutions, to continue to out-innovate the competition. In fiscal year 2023, both PVG and SSG increased their product launches exponentially over prior years and in fiscal year 2024, both plan to launch a record number of new products on an individual and combined basis, underscoring our commitment to pushing potential further through product innovation. With Marucci joining our family, their team has an amazing product pipeline and collaborations planned throughout the year. We are thrilled about what Marucci brings to our commitment to innovation, culture and performance defining passion. The promise of new and ongoing partnerships across our businesses will advance our strategy and deepen consumer engagement with our brands – all driven by the strength of our unique competitive advantages.

In fiscal year 2024, we will continue to invest in the core of our business: enhancing our research and development capabilities to further leverage technology and engineering to improve performance. We are enthusiastic about the products in the pipeline and our future growth potential. We have a resolute team with a long-term vision in place, all inspired by a rich legacy of redefining performance with a “never done” attitude and always pursuing excellence, as Bob Fox did 50 years ago.

I hope that we can count on your continued support as an investor or customer—ideally both—and cordially invite you to attend FOX's 2024 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, which will be held via webcast on Friday, May 3, 2024, at 1:00 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time. Please note that this year's Annual Meeting will be held virtually, which means that you will be able to register and vote online by visiting www.proxypush.com/FOXF. Please visit www.proxydocs.com/FOXF for complete details. I look forward to speaking with you then.

                         

Sincerely,

Michael C. Dennison

Director and Chief Executive Officer

Fox Factory Holding Corp.’s 2024 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the "Annual Meeting") will be held via webcast on Friday, May 3, 2024, at 1:00 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time. This year's Annual Meeting will be in virtual meeting format only, which means that you will be able to participate in the meeting, vote and submit your questions during the meeting online by visiting www.proxypush.com/FOXF. You will not be able to attend the Annual Meeting in person.

The purposes of the meeting are to:

1.    Elect three Class II directors, as described in the Proxy Statement, each to serve for a term to expire at the 2027 Annual Meeting of Stockholders;

2.    Ratify the appointment of Grant Thornton LLP as our independent public accountants for fiscal year 2024;

3.     Vote on an advisory resolution to approve the Company’s executive compensation; and

4.    Vote on an advisory resolution on the frequency of future advisory votes on the Company's executive compensation.

The stockholders will also consider and act upon such other matters as may properly come before the meeting, or any adjournment or postponement thereof.

These matters are more fully described in the Proxy Statement. The Board of Directors recommends that you vote "FOR" all the nominated directors, "FOR" the ratification of the independent public accountants, and "FOR" the advisory approval of the Company’s executive compensation, and to conduct an advisory vote on the Company's executive compensation every "ONE YEAR." The Board of Directors knows of no other matters at this time that may be properly brought before the meeting.

Stockholders of record at the close of business on March 5, 2024 are entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Annual Meeting and any subsequent adjournments or postponements thereof. A list of these stockholders will be available for inspection for 10 days preceding the Annual Meeting at our principal executive offices located at 2055 Sugarloaf Circle, Suite 300, Duluth GA 30097. The Notice of Annual Meeting, Proxy Statement, Proxy Card, Annual Report, and other Proxy Materials are first being sent or made available to stockholders on or about March 20, 2024.

Important Notice Regarding the Availability of Proxy Materials for the Annual Meeting

We are pleased to save costs and help protect the environment by using the Notice and Access method of delivery. Instead of receiving paper copies of our Proxy Materials in the mail, many stockholders will receive a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials ("Notice"), which provides an internet website address where stockholders can access electronic copies of Proxy Materials and vote. This website also has instructions for voting by telephone and for requesting paper copies of the Proxy Materials and proxy card. The Company's 2024 Proxy Statement and Annual Report for fiscal year 2023 are available online at www.proxydocs.com/FOXF. We encourage you to access and review such materials before voting.

Your vote is important to us. Whether or not you expect to attend the Annual Meeting via webcast, we urge you to consider the Proxy Statement carefully and to promptly vote your shares either by (1) voting through the internet at the website shown on the proxy card or Notice or by telephone at the telephone number shown on the proxy card or Notice; or (2) completing, dating, signing, and returning the enclosed proxy card as promptly as possible if you received paper copies of your Proxy Materials in the mail. Completing a proxy card or voting through the internet or telephone will not prevent you from voting by following the instructions on the website during the webcast, but will assure that your vote is counted, if, for any reason, you are unable to attend. Our proxy tabulator, Mediant Communications, Inc., must receive any proxy that will not be delivered during the webcast to the Annual Meeting by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time on Thursday, May 2, 2024.

2023 Performance Highlights 

Overview of Business

Our company, Fox Factory Holding Corp., is a global leader in the design, engineering, manufacturing and marketing of premium products and systems that deliver championship-level performance for customers worldwide. Our premium brands, performance-defining products and systems are used primarily on bicycles (“bikes”), side-by-side vehicles (“side-by-sides”), on-road vehicles with and without off-road capabilities, off-road vehicles and trucks, all-terrain vehicles (“ATVs”), snowmobiles, and specialty vehicles and applications. In addition, we offer premium baseball and softball products.

Some of our products are specifically designed and marketed for certain leading cycling and powered vehicle original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”), including Giant, Orbea, Canyon Bicycles, Yeti Cycles, Santa Cruz Bicycles, Trek Bicycles and Specialized in bikes, and Ford, Polaris, BRP, Toyota, Yamaha, Honda, and Jeep in powered vehicles, while others are distributed to consumers through a global network of dealers and distributors and through direct-to-customer channels.

Additionally, we upfit trucks to be off-road capable and on-road vehicles with product offerings such as lift kits and components with our shock products, superchargers, interior accessories, wheels, tires, lighting, and body enhancements. We also offer mountain and road bike wheels and other performance-defining cycling components including cranks, chainrings, pedals, bars, stems, and seat posts.

FOX is an aspirational brand and we believe many of our OEMs often prominently display and incorporate our products to improve the marketability and consumer demand for their performance models. Professional athletes using our products are consistently successful in elite competitive events around the world providing brand exposure and demonstrating their performance capabilities, all of which, we believe, reinforces our premium brand image and positively influences the purchasing habits of enthusiasts and other consumers seeking high-performance products.

We continue to opportunistically expand our total available market through potential acquisitions beyond our current product categories. We believe there may be opportunities to acquire other recognized brands that are valued by that same passionate customer. We are also evaluating “white space” opportunities to expand into relevant performance-defining adjacencies.

2023 Performance Highlights and Key Accomplishments

Financial Results

Fiscal year 2023 reflects a tale of two halves with the first half of the year generally being on plan and the back half of the year having significantly growing headwinds. Challenges including the ongoing inventory recalibration in the bike industry, the United Auto Worker Union (“UAW”) strike impacting our Powered Vehicles Group (“PVG”) and Aftermarket Applications Group (“AAG”), and higher interest rates affecting customer purchasing practices led to annual sales below our expectation. Despite the aforementioned headwinds, PVG managed to achieve organic growth, showcasing the expansion of our market presence and the effectiveness of our product range. The decrease in Specialty Sports Group net sales was partially offset by revenue from Marucci Sports, LLC (“Marucci”), which we acquired in November 2023. The impact of the UAW strike and the high interest rate environment on AAG’s performance was offset by net sales from Custom Wheel House, LLC, which was acquired in March 2023.

Fiscal Year 2023 Percentage changes (Year over Year)

Key Management and Governance Developments

On April 14, 2023, Scott R. Humphrey departed from his position as the Company’s Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer. In connection with Mr. Humphrey’s separation from the Company, the Board appointed Ms. Maggie E. Torres, who had been with FOX since 2014 and served as Vice President, Corporate Controller since 2020, as the Company’s Interim Chief Financial Officer and Interim Treasurer while the Company completed its search process for a permanent Chief Financial Officer.

Effective June 12, 2023, Dennis C. Schemm was appointed as the Company’s Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer. Mr. Schemm has more than 25 years of experience in finance, with a deep skill set that includes financial risk management, controllership, global financial planning and analysis, treasury, audit, capital allocation strategies, and mergers and acquisitions. In connection with Mr. Schemm’s appointment, Ms. Torres transitioned from Interim Chief Financial Officer and Interim Treasurer to the role of Director of Accounting Projects on the same date. Additionally, on May 3, 2023, Brendan Enick joined the Company as the Chief Accounting Officer.

Say-on-Pay Responsiveness

We value our stockholders’ perspectives regarding our corporate governance, sustainability and executive compensation practices, as well as our business strategy and public disclosures. In May 2023, we were pleased to receive approximately 94% stockholder support for our Say-on-Pay proposal. Abstention votes and broker non-votes were at 3%.

We conduct ongoing reviews of both our governance and executive compensation practices to ensure that we maintain best practices and enhanced disclosure in our Proxy Statement and other Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) filings. We also work to expand and enhance our public disclosure around the topics of interest to our stockholders.

Strong, Well-Balanced Corporate Governance Practices

•Highly Qualified and Independent Board. Our directors bring deep industry experience to provide effective oversight in the boardroom. Six of our seven directors are independent. Independent directors comprise 100% of each of the Board’s committees and independent directors regularly meet in executive session without management present.

•Independent Board Leadership. The Chair of our Board is an independent director. The Board does not have a policy as to whether the Chair should be an independent director, but when the Chair is not an independent director, the independent directors appoint a “Lead Independent Director.” The Lead Independent Director is responsible for: approving Board meeting agendas; in consultation with the non-employee directors and the Executive Chair, when applicable, approving Board meeting schedules to ensure there is sufficient time for discussion of all agenda items; approving the type of information to be provided to directors for Board meetings; presiding at all executive sessions of the non-employee directors (which are held after all Board meetings); when applicable, serving as liaison between the Executive Chair and the independent directors; being available for consultation and direct communication with the Company’s stockholders; calling meetings of the non-employee directors when necessary and appropriate; and performing such other duties as the Board may from time to time designate.

•Focus on Board Diversity. The Board adopted a formal Board Inclusion and Diversity Policy in May 2021 to ensure the use of a diverse and inclusive lens in identifying, evaluating, nominating and selecting members of the Board. While this Policy is specifically applicable to the Board, it acts in concert with the behaviors outlined in the FOX Code of Ethics, Employee Handbook, and other global policies that outline the Company’s broader commitment to inclusion, diversity, and engagement.

•Mix of Company History and Fresh Ideas. We believe our current Board tenure and composition reflects an appropriate mix of historical company knowledge and fresh perspectives.

4

•Awareness and Oversight of Sustainability Matters. We conducted a stakeholder-led materiality assessment in 2021 to understand our sustainability context and identify and prioritize our sustainability issues. We engaged with company leaders, employees, investors, athletes, and consumers to ensure inclusion of representative voices from across our entire stakeholder network. Our analysis delivered a comprehensive view of where our business was and where we want to be in the future. We identified and prioritized material sustainability topics where we cause actual and potential impacts, both positive and negative. Our most pressing sustainability challenges include talent, inclusion, and diversity; climate change and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions; sustainable products and materials; trail access and conservation; and community impact. This assessment informed our emerging sustainability strategy: Fox Factory Frontiers, which has three integrated impact pillars – People, Planet, and Product – supported by excellence in business fundamentals. This strategic framework is guiding our work in this space globally under the leadership of Jackie Martin, Chief Purpose and Inclusion Officer. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee Charter was updated in 2022 to reflect the Board’s growing oversight of the Company’s sustainability initiatives to ensure alignment with best practices. Please refer to the Sustainability section of this filing for an overview of the sustainability strategy.

Please see Corporate Governance for further discussion of our governance practices.

Our Board designated the persons named in the proxy card as proxies. The designated proxies are officers of the Company. They will vote as directed by the completed proxy card.

There are three ways to vote by proxy:

1.By Mail -

The availability of telephone or internet voting will depend on the bank’s, broker’s or other record holder’s voting process. Your bank, broker or other record holder may not be permitted to exercise voting discretion as to some of the matters to be acted upon.

How will my proxy be voted?

All properly completed, unrevoked proxies, which are received prior to the close of voting at the Annual Meeting, will be voted in accordance with the specifications made. If a properly executed, unrevoked written proxy card does not specifically direct the voting of shares covered, the proxy will be voted:

•FOR the individuals nominated as a director in Proposal 1, described in this Proxy Statement, for a term to expire at the 2027 Annual Meeting of Stockholders;

•FOR Proposal 2, the ratification of the appointment of Grant Thornton LLP as our independent public accountants for fiscal year 2024;

•FOR Proposal 3, the advisory approval of the Company’s executive compensation;

•For every ONE YEAR for Proposal 4, the frequency at which future advisory votes on the Company’s executive compensation are to occur; and

in accordance with the judgment of the persons named in the proxy as to such other matters as may properly come before the Annual Meeting, or any adjournment or postponement thereof.

The Board is not aware of any other matters that may properly come before the Annual Meeting. However, should any such matters come before the Annual Meeting, it is the intent of the persons named in the proxy card to vote all proxies (unless otherwise directed by stockholders) in accordance with their judgment on such matters.

May I revoke or change my vote?

If you are a stockholder of record, you may revoke your proxy at any time before it is actually voted by giving written notice of revocation to our Corporate Secretary, by delivering a proxy bearing a later date or by attending and voting at the Annual Meeting. Attendance at the Annual Meeting will not cause your previously granted proxy to be revoked unless you specifically make that request. If you are a beneficial owner of shares, you may submit new voting instructions by contacting your bank, broker or other record holder or, if you obtained a legal proxy from your bank, broker or other record holder giving you the right to vote your shares, by attending and voting at the Annual Meeting.

Will my vote be made public?

All proxies, ballots and voting materials that identify the votes of specific stockholders will generally be kept confidential, except as necessary to meet applicable legal requirements and to allow for the tabulation of votes and certification of the vote.

What constitutes a quorum, permitting the meeting to conduct its business?

The presence at the Annual Meeting, in person or by proxy, of holders of a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock entitled to vote as of the record date is considered a quorum for the transaction of business. If you submit a properly completed proxy or if you attend the Annual Meeting to vote in person, your shares of common stock will be considered part of the quorum. Stockholders who participate in the Annual Meeting online will be considered to be attending the meeting in person for purposes of determining whether a quorum has been met.

Shares represented by proxies that are marked “Abstain” or “Withhold” will be counted as shares present for purposes of determining the presence of a quorum. Shares of stock entitled to vote that are represented by broker non-votes will be counted as shares present for purposes of determining the presence of a quorum. A broker non-vote occurs when the broker holding shares for a beneficial owner does not vote on a particular proposal because the broker does not have discretionary voting power to vote on that proposal without specific voting instructions from the beneficial owner.

How many votes are needed to approve a proposal?

Proposal 1

Assuming the presence of a quorum, each director nominee receiving a plurality of the votes cast at the Annual Meeting (in person or by proxy) will be elected as a director. No stockholder shall be permitted to cumulate votes for the election of directors. The election of directors is a non-discretionary item and brokers may not vote on Proposal 1 without specific voting instructions from beneficial owners, resulting in a broker non-vote. Broker non-votes and withheld votes are not counted toward the election of directors or toward the election of the individual nominees specified on the proxy, and therefore, have no effect on Proposal 1.

Proposal 2

Assuming the presence of a quorum, the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares present, directly or by proxy, at the Annual Meeting (via webcast) and entitled to vote is required to ratify the appointment of Grant Thornton LLP as our independent registered public accountants for fiscal year 2024. An abstention is not counted toward the ratification of the appointment of Grant Thornton LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm, and the effect of an abstention is the same as a vote “Against” the ratification. Ratification of this appointment is a discretionary item upon which your bank or broker has the authority to vote uninstructed shares. Should your broker not indicate their vote relating to the ratification of the appointment of Grant Thornton LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for fiscal year 2024, but otherwise appoint the proxies, your shares will be voted “For” the ratification of the appointment of Grant Thornton LLP as the independent registered public accounting firm for fiscal year 2024.

Proposal 3

Assuming the presence of a quorum, the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares present, directly or by proxy, at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on the proposal is required to approve the advisory vote on executive compensation. Proposal 3 is a non-discretionary item and brokers may not vote on Proposal 3 without specific voting instructions from beneficial owners, resulting in a broker non-vote. An abstention is not counted toward the approval, and the effect of an abstention is the same as a vote “Against” the approval. Broker non-votes will have no impact on this proposal. Because the vote on this proposal is advisory in nature, it will not be binding on the Board. However, the Board will consider the outcome of the vote along with other factors when making its decision about the compensation of our Named Executive Officers. See “Compensation Discussion and Analysis - Say-on-Pay Outcome and Stockholder Outreach Efforts” for additional information.

Proposal 4

Regarding the advisory resolution on whether the advisory vote on executive compensation should be held every one, two or three years, the frequency option that receives the highest number of votes cast on this proposal will be deemed the preferred option of stockholders. Proposal 4 is a non-discretionary item and brokers may not vote on Proposal 4 without specific voting instructions from beneficial owners, resulting in a broker non-vote. Broker non-votes and abstentions will have no impact on this proposal. Because the vote on this proposal is advisory in nature, it will not be binding on the Board.

Who will count the vote?

Representatives of Mediant will tabulate the votes and act as the inspectors of election.

How can I find the voting results of the Annual Meeting?

We will report the voting results in a Current Report on Form 8-K within four business days of the Annual Meeting. If final voting results are not available to us at that time, we intend to file a current report on Form 8-K to publish preliminary results and, within four business days after the final results are known to us, file an amendment to such current report on Form 8-K to publish the final results.

10

How is the solicitation being made?

We, the Company, are making this solicitation and as such, the cost of solicitation of proxies will be borne by us. Our directors, officers, and employees may make solicitation, personally or by telephone, email or fax. The Notice and, if requested, the Proxy Materials will be distributed to beneficial owners of common stock through brokers, custodians, nominees and other like parties, and we expect to reimburse such parties for their charges and expenses.

Proxies cannot be voted for a greater number of persons than the number of nominees named.

Unless otherwise indicated in your proxy, the persons named as proxies in the proxy card, or their substitutes, will vote your proxy for the nominee, who has been designated as such by the Board. In the event that a nominee for director withdraws or for any reason is not able to serve as a director, we will vote your proxy for any replacement nominee designated by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and the Board, if such a replacement nominee is designated. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee recommended each nominee that the Board recommends to stockholders to the Board.

On August 6, 2021, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) approved a Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) rule change requiring its listed companies to have, or explain why they do not have, at least two diverse directors. The diverse directors are to include (1) one director who self-identifies as female and (2) another director who self-identifies as a member of an underrepresented minority or LGBTQ+. This new rule requires all companies listed on Nasdaq’s U.S. exchange to publicly disclose consistent, transparent diversity statistics regarding their board of directors. We are fully compliant with the requirements of this rule.

17

Required Vote for Election of Directors

The election of directors is by plurality vote of holders present, in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote thereon, with each nominee receiving a plurality of the votes cast to be elected as a director.

The Board recommends that you vote “FOR” each of the nominees, Messrs. Dennison, Johnson, and Waitman, to be elected to our Board as Class II directors for terms ending at our 2027 Annual Meeting of Stockholders or earlier in the case of such director’s death, resignation or removal.

DIRECTOR COMPENSATION

Non-employee Director Compensation for Fiscal Year 2023

Any non-employee director who, directly, indirectly, or beneficially owns 5% or more of outstanding securities or is employed by or represents a stockholder of us that, directly, indirectly, or beneficially owns 5% or more of the Company’s outstanding securities is not entitled to receive any cash compensation or equity-based compensation for his or her service on the Board. Such non-employee director is, however, entitled to receive reimbursement for reasonable expenses that he or she properly incurs in connection with attending Board meetings and performing duties as a director.

For fiscal year 2023, our Non-employee Director Compensation Policy, as amended and restated, provided for an annual cash retainer of $75,000, payable in quarterly increments, for service as a non-employee director of FOX. A non-employee director who serves as Chair of the Board is paid an additional annual retainer of $90,000 and an additional equity award outlined below, plus the other retainers and compensation he or she may receive. The Chairs of the Audit Committee, the Compensation Committee and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee are provided additional annual retainers of $25,000, $17,500 and $17,500, respectively. The Lead Independent Director, when applicable, is paid an additional annual retainer of $15,000. Each non-employee director serving on the Audit Committee, the Compensation Committee and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is provided additional annual retainers of $10,000, $10,000, and $10,000, respectively. Finally, each of the non-employee directors is entitled to receive reimbursement for reasonable expenses that he or she properly incurs in connection with attending Board meetings and his or her duties as a director. In October 2023, the Compensation Committee reviewed market pay benchmarking of peer group and a broader group of comparably-sized companies and decided, in order to approximate market median levels, for fiscal year 2024, to increase the annual cash retainer of the non-employee directors to $80,000.

Pursuant to our Non-employee Director Compensation Policy, as amended and restated, non-employee directors are also granted annual equity-based compensation awards in the form of restricted stock units (“RSUs”) pursuant to the 2022 Omnibus Plan, as amended. These awards vest on the day immediately prior to the next Annual Meeting of Stockholders, subject to accelerated vesting in the event of the director’s death or a change in control of the Company and are subject to such additional terms and conditions as may be set forth in the applicable award agreement and plan. Subject to applicable laws and our policies in place for equity-based awards, through fiscal year 2023, the non-employee directors were entitled to receive an annual award of RSUs determined by dividing $150,000, by the closing price of our common stock on the date of grant. The Chair of the Board or our Lead Independent Director, as applicable, will receive an additional annual award of RSUs determined by dividing $15,000 by the closing price of our common stock on the date of grant. In fiscal year 2023, other than the Chair of the Board, Mr. Mendenhall, who received 1,694 RSUs on May 5, 2023, each other non-employee director received an award of 1,540 RSUs on May 5, 2023. These awards will vest on the day immediately prior to the 2024 Annual Meeting, subject to accelerated vesting in the event of a director’s death or a change in control of the Company. In October 2023, the Compensation Committee decided, for fiscal year 2024, to increase the annual equity-based compensation award for each non-employee director to $160,000.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

Our business and affairs are managed under the direction of our Board, which currently consists of seven members. The primary responsibilities of our Board are to provide oversight, strategic guidance, counseling and direction to our management.

The Board of Directors

Governance Guidelines

Our Board adopted a set of governance guidelines (the “Governance Guidelines”) to assist our Board and its committees in performing its duties and serving the best interests of our Company and our stockholders. The Governance Guidelines cover topics including, but not limited to, director selection and qualification, director responsibilities and operation of our Board, director access to management and independent advisors, director compensation, director orientation and continuing education, succession planning, recoupment of performance-based compensation and the annual evaluations of our Board.

Code of Ethics

Our Board adopted a Code of Ethics that applies to all of our employees, officers and directors, including our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer and controller, or persons performing similar functions. The Code of Ethics is posted on our website http://investor.ridefox.com. The Code of Ethics can only be amended by the approval of a majority of our Board, including a majority of our independent directors. Any waiver to the Code of Ethics for an executive officer or director may only be granted by our Board and must be timely disclosed as required by applicable law. Any amendments to the Code of Ethics, or any waivers of its requirements, will be disclosed on our website at http://investor.ridefox.com or by filing with the SEC a Current Report on Form 8-K, in each case, if such disclosure is required by rules of the SEC or Nasdaq Listing Rules.

Leadership Structure

The Board believes its current leadership structure is best suited to serve the interest of the stockholders. The Board does not have a policy as to whether the Chair should be an independent director, but when the Chair is not an independent director, the independent directors appoint a “Lead Independent Director.” Mr. Mendenhall, an independent director, serves as our Board Chair. As Board Chair, Mr. Mendenhall is responsible for: approving Board meeting agendas; in consultation with the non-employee directors, when applicable, approving Board meeting schedules to ensure there is sufficient time for discussion of all agenda items; approving the type of information to be provided to directors for Board meetings; presiding at all executive sessions of the non-employee directors (which are held after every Board meeting); when applicable, serving as liaison between the Executive Chair and the independent directors; being available for consultation and direct communication with the Company’s stockholders; calling meetings of the non-employee directors when necessary and appropriate; and performing such other duties as the Board may from time to time designate. The Chief Executive Officer has general charge and management of the affairs, property and business of the corporation, under the oversight, and subject to the review and direction, of the Board, but does not serve in a leadership capacity on the Board.

Our Board has three standing committees, comprised solely of independent directors, the Audit Committee, chaired by Ms. Hlay; the Compensation Committee, chaired by Ms. Fetter; and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, chaired by Mr. Duncan. The responsibilities and authority of each committee are described in this Proxy Statement.

20

Risk Oversight

The Board believes risk management is an important aspect of our business. The Board oversees and regularly reviews the Company’s management of material risks. While the Board as a whole ultimately has the responsibility for overseeing risk management, the Board delegated certain duties with respect to risk oversight to our Audit Committee. In furtherance of such purpose, the Audit Committee Charter specifically requires the Audit Committee to discuss with management, the internal auditor or internal audit service provider, as the case may be, and the independent public accountant the Company’s major risk exposures (whether financial, operations or both) and the steps management has taken to monitor and control such exposure, including the Company’s risk assessment and risk management policies. The Board is regularly updated on the Audit Committee’s findings.

Board Meetings

During fiscal year 2023, the Board held six meetings. All of our directors who served in fiscal year 2023 attended or participated in 75% or more of the aggregate of (1) the total number of meetings of the Board (held during the period for which such person has been a director) and (2) the total number of meetings held by all committees of the Board on which such person served (during the periods that such person served).

Attendance of Directors at the Annual Meeting

Pursuant to our Governance Guidelines, our directors are encouraged to attend our Annual Meetings of Stockholders. Five of our directors attended our 2023 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

Stock Ownership Guidelines

Effective January 2, 2021, our Board established Stock Ownership Guidelines (the “Guidelines”) to promote a long-term perspective in managing FOX and to ensure alignment with stockholders, capital markets and public interests. The Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Chief Accounting Officer, Chief Legal Officer and Group Presidents (collectively, the “Covered Executives”) and the non-employee directors of the Board (“Directors,” together with the Covered Executives the “Covered Executives and Directors”) are the individuals subject to the Guidelines. Each Covered Executive and Director is expected to acquire, and continue to hold during the term of his or her employment as a Covered Executive, or during his or her term as a Director, as applicable, ownership of FOX common stock (FOXF) having a value equal to: five times base salary for the Chief Executive Officer, three times base salary for the remainder of the Covered Executives, and five times the annual cash retainer for the Directors, rounded up to the nearest 500 shares (the “Ownership Requirement”). Additionally, Covered Executives and Directors must retain at least 50% of his or her net shares following the exercise of options, the vesting of restricted stock units or the vesting of performance share units until the applicable Ownership Requirement has been met. Covered Executives and Directors are expected to achieve the applicable Ownership Requirement within five years after first becoming subject to the Guidelines, but the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee may grant a waiver to the Guidelines on a case-by-case basis. As of the date of this Proxy Statement, all Covered Executives and Directors met their Ownership Requirements or were on target to reach their expected position within the five-year timeline.

Our Board adopted the Policy Regarding Insider Trading, Tipping and Other Wrongful Disclosures, or the Insider Trading Policy. The Insider Trading Policy prohibits employees (including part-time and temporary employees), officers, directors, consultants and contractors of the Company from hedging transactions with respect to shares of our common stock. The Insider Trading Policy also requires directors, executive officers and designated insiders to obtain pre-approval from one of the Company's Designated Officers before pledging shares of our common stock.

21

Clawback Policy

Additionally, effective October 2, 2023, our Board adopted the Fox Factory Holding Corp. Amended and Restated Clawback Policy (the “Clawback Policy”). The Clawback Policy provides for the recovery of certain erroneously awarded incentive compensation in the event the Company is required to prepare an accounting restatement due to material noncompliance of the Company with any reporting requirement under securities laws, including any required accounting restatement to correct an error in previously issued financial statements that is material to the previously issued financial statements, or that would result in a material misstatement if the error were corrected in the current period or left uncorrected in the current period. The Clawback Policy is intended to comply with, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, Section 10D of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, Exchange Act Rule 10D-1, and Nasdaq Stock Market Listing Rule 5608. The Clawback Policy can be found attached as Exhibit 97 to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 29, 2023.

Certain Relationships and Related Transactions and Director Independence

Policies and Procedures for Related Party Transactions

Our Board adopted a written related person transaction policy, which is included in our Code of Ethics and sets forth the policies and procedures for the review and approval or ratification of related person transactions. This policy covers, with certain exceptions set forth in Item 404 of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), any transaction, arrangement, or relationship, or any series of similar transactions, arrangements, or relationships in which we were or are to be a participant, the amount involved exceeds $120,000, and a related person had or will have a direct or indirect material interest, including, without limitation, purchases of goods or services by or from the related person or entities in which the related person has a material interest, indebtedness, guarantees of indebtedness, and employment by us of a related person. As provided by our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee Charter, our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is responsible for reviewing and approving in advance any related party transaction and no related party transactions have been approved except in accordance with our policy. In fiscal year 2023, we did not engage in any related person transactions requiring disclosure under Item 404 of Regulation S-K.

Director Independence

The rules and listing standards of NASDAQ, or the Nasdaq Listing Rules, generally require a majority of the members of our Board satisfy the Nasdaq Listing Rules criteria for “independence.” No director qualifies as independent under the Nasdaq Listing Rules unless our Board affirmatively determines that the director does not have a relationship with us that would impair independence (directly or as a partner, stockholder or officer of an organization that has a relationship with us). Our Board determined that Messrs. Mendenhall, Waitman, Johnson and Duncan and Mses. Fetter and Hlay are currently independent directors as defined under the Nasdaq Listing Rules. Mr. Dennison has been determined not to be independent by our Board.

Nominations of Directors and Diversity

Consideration of Director Nominees

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee annually assesses the size and composition of the Board in light of our operating requirements and determined that seven is the appropriate number of directors to have on the Board. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee also identifies and makes recommendations to the Board with respect to candidates for election as directors by stockholders at our Annual Meetings of Stockholders. When necessary, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee utilizes external director search firms as well as the Company’s internal Human Resources staff to engage in a thorough and exhaustive search for candidates. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee reviews candidates with certain criteria designed to best serve the Company, including, but not limited to: (1) possess fundamental qualities of intelligence, honesty, perceptiveness, good judgment, maturity, high ethics and standards, integrity, fairness and responsibility; (2) have a genuine interest in the Company and a recognition that, as a member of the Board, each director is accountable to the stockholders of the Company; (3) have a background that demonstrates an understanding of business and financial affairs of other organizations of comparable or larger purpose, complexity and size, and subject to similar or greater legal restrictions and oversight; (4) be able to contribute to the effective oversight of the Company, taking into account the needs of the Company and such factors as the individual’s experience, perspective, skills and knowledge of the industries in which the Company and its subsidiaries operate; (5) have no conflict of interest or legal impediment that would interfere with the duty of loyalty owed to the Company and its stockholders; (6) have no relationships that might impair his or her independence, including, but not limited to, business, financial or family relationships with the Company’s management; (7) have the ability and be willing to spend the time required to function effectively as a director; (8) possess skills necessary for service on Board committees; (9) be compatible and able to work well with other directors and executives in a team effort with a view to a long-term relationship with the Company as a director; and (10) have independent opinions and be willing to state them in a constructive manner. These criteria are set forth in the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee Charter.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will consider director candidates recommended by Company stockholders, as provided for in the Fox Factory Holding Corp. Policy Regarding Security Holder Recommendations of Director Nominees, set forth below. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee does not intend to alter the manner in which it evaluates a candidate for nomination to the Board based on whether or not the candidate was recommended by a stockholder. Stockholders who wish to recommend individuals for consideration by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee to become nominees for election to the Board at an Annual Meeting of Stockholders, must do so by delivering no later than the close of business on the 90th day nor earlier than the close of business on the 120th day prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting a written recommendation to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee c/o Fox Factory Holding Corp., 2055 Sugarloaf Circle, Suite 300, Duluth, GA 30097, Attn: Chief Legal Officer, and must meet the deadlines and other requirements set for in our Amended and Restated Bylaws (the “Bylaws”), the Fox Factory Holding Corp. Policy Regarding Security Holder Recommendations of Director Nominees and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). If a stockholder, in accordance with the procedural requirements discussed above, recommends a proposed director candidate, the Chief Legal Officer will provide the stockholder recommendation to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will evaluate the proposed director’s candidacy and recommend whether the Board should nominate the proposed director candidate for election by Company’s stockholders.

Diversity

Creating a culture of belonging by fostering the ongoing development of a diverse and inclusive work environment is core to the future of FOX. As such, the Board adopted its Inclusion and Diversity Policy to ensure the use of a diverse and inclusive lens in identifying, evaluating, nominating, and selecting members of the Board of Directors, aligning with FOX’s core values to drive the execution of a long-term strategy which promotes sustainable success for the benefit of all its stakeholders. The Board desires to be a reflection of the communities within which the organization operates. As well, the Board intends to comply with NASDAQ-listed company board diversity rules, while recognizing that temporary imbalances in representation may arise due to changes in Board composition. The Board also supports and sets expectations to drive equity in representation of senior leadership and critical roles held by women, historically ethnic/racial minorities, and other underrepresented groups across FOX. Finally, each Board member will personally and collectively engage in empathy and upskilling building measures to actively interrupt bias and be advocates of upstanding behaviors.

Sustainability

Our Board is engaged and involved in overseeing the Company’s long-term strategy, including evaluating key business risks and opportunities, consumer trends and competitive developments. This also includes aspects of our sustainability initiatives that relate to our corporate strategy, which the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and, as appropriate, the Board discuss quarterly. As a result of this process, the Board increased its oversight and support of our sustainability journey. The Company-wide Fox Factory Frontiers strategy focuses on three integrated impact pillars: People, Planet, & Product - supported by excellence in business fundamentals. In fiscal year 2023, we published our second sustainability report that detailed progress made within our strategic framework as well as announced 2030 Aspirations for change. These aspirations fall into five buckets: Inclusion, Diversity & Engagement; Sustainable Product Mindset; Social Impact; Carbon Emissions; & Supply Chain.

People

Our Company’s success depends on the talent and diverse perspectives of our employees, who bring their unique experiences and skills to fuel our passion for innovation and outperforming the competition. Our approach to building the most talented workforce is rooted in our commitment to our core values of leadership, trust, collaboration, agility, service, and ingenuity, which guide how we interact with each other, our customers, and our community of adventurers. We focus on three key areas: Talent, inclusion, and diversity; Employee health, safety, and well-being; and Community impact. Embracing a “One Fox” culture, we seek to foster a sense of belonging across locations, countries, and continents, ensuring everyone feels valued, appreciated, and motivated to achieve their full potential. We consistently strive to maintain a work environment that inspires excellence and nurtures individual growth.

Our Realizing Inclusion, Diversity, and Engagement (R.I.D.E.) @ Fox initiative continues to further our inclusive culture. In fiscal year 2023, we also launched the Peak Performance wellness framework, including learning webinars and access to new tools like the Calm app. Approximately 1,100 employees participated in our immersive virtual R.I.D.E. workshops with nearly sixty dedicated team members serving on the local R.I.D.E. Employee Councils. We launched our first Employee Resource Group in fiscal year 2022, the Women’s Interactive Network (W.I.N.), which became the foundation for the fiscal year 2023 launch of our Veterans Employee Resource Group (V.E.R.G.). We also launched our first employee recognition portal called Game Changers, igniting thousands of shoutouts across the Company. In fiscal year 2023, we launched two new Leadership Development Programs, rounding out the portfolio count to five, starting from interns through the executive level. In addition, we expanded self-paced development via Workday Learning, including the delivery of functional and compliance-based training.

To bolster strong connections within our communities, we have a community impact grant program focused on supporting STEM education, workforce development, and socio-economic equity. Additionally, our BOOST employee program flourished, matching employee charitable donations and volunteer time to maximize our collective impact in our communities fueled by our second annual Giving Month.

24

Beyond this, the Board, the Compensation Committee, and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee engage with management and human resource executives on a regular basis across a broad range of human capital management issues.

Planet

The Planet Frontier is focused on enjoying, protecting, and renewing our global playground. Our products enable consumers to connect with the natural environment and so a healthy planet is important to our business. We aim to play a leading role in reducing the impact of cycling and powered vehicle recreation on the planet. The Company assesses its environmental risks on an ongoing basis. We recognize that our operations have the potential to impact the environment, including, but not limited to, the use of non-recyclable materials in certain of our products and our continued business growth, which may cause higher utility usage. In fiscal year 2023, we conducted our second Scope 1, 2, and 3 greenhouse gas (“GHG”) inventory (verified externally), based on 2022 data, to quantify our operational, upstream, and downstream emissions related to energy consumption and other factors. We also completed our first climate risk assessment which informed our CDP (Carbon Disclosure Product) and TCFD (Taskforce on Climate-related Financial Disclosures) submissions.

In terms of our supply chain, we continued to gain adoption of our Supplier Code of Conduct that we rolled out to all Tier 1 suppliers in fiscal year 2022. It details our expectations related to labor, health and safety, the environment, and ethics. We expect that all suppliers, their employees, and any third parties act responsibly and conscientiously based on the principles and guidelines outlined in the Code of Conduct.

Because our products are an integral part of outdoor adventuring, we have the responsibility to promote the conscientious use of land amongst outdoor enthusiasts and protect our shared playgrounds. We also aim to expand opportunities within the outdoor sporting industry, diversifying the populations that participate in cycling and power sports. Since fiscal year 2021, Trail Trust, our signature global community outreach initiative, helped do just that. To date, we donated $1.8 million, supporting the build and maintenance of 650 miles of trails and new outdoor adventuring for 24,000 members of underrepresented groups. This puts us well on our way of reaching our aspiration to give $10 million globally and expand access to 100,000 adventurers from underrepresented populations by 2030 through Trail Trust.

Product

The Product Frontier focuses on redefining performance through responsible innovation. We are focused on infusing the sustainability lens in product development; maintaining our leading performance for product integrity, design, and innovation; and pursuing strong performance in supply chain social and environmental impact. When we view product development through the lens of sustainability, we find opportunities to reduce the impacts of our products while improving performance, quality, and value. This enables consumers to deepen their connection to the natural environment. We also continually strive to reduce environmental impacts of the manufacturing processes employed in our own facilities and in our supply chain. In fiscal year 2023, we undertook some key material changes to reduce environmental impacts and eliminate Substances of Concern (SOC) in our products. Using our internally generated and maintained Approved Materials List, we can proactively stay ahead of global regulations and reduce the risk of impacts to the environment, workers, and users. These material changes also resulted in performance and cost improvements. In addition, we expanded our sustainable packaging initiatives across the business to include transitioning to reusable containers for internal parts transfers, employing reusable dunnage to safely ship parts to OEM Customers, and improving designs to create lower impact consumer packaging. Fiscal year 2023 also brought continued use of renewable energy in our key facilities and we intend to expand that in 2024. We continued to invest in resources to enhance our real-world, virtual, and lab testing capabilities to bolster our products’ durability, safety, and performance. Designing our products for serviceability and our robust service offerings further extend the lifespan of our products and enhance their sustainability.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

Introduction

This Compensation Discussion and Analysis (“CD&A”) explains our compensation philosophy, summarizes our compensation programs and reviews compensation decisions for the executives identified as Named Executive Officers in the Summary Compensation Table. Our executive compensation philosophy, policies, plans and programs are under the supervision of the Compensation Committee. For a description of the composition, authority and responsibilities of the Compensation Committee, see “Corporate Governance - Board of Directors, Executive Officers and Committees." Unless the context requires otherwise, in this Compensation Discussion and Analysis when we refer to the “Committee,” we are referring to the Compensation Committee, and when we refer to “Named Executive Officers” or “NEOs," we are referring to the executives identified as Named Executive Officers in the Summary Compensation Table, who for fiscal year 2023, were:

•Michael C. Dennison, Chief Executive Officer

•Dennis C. Schemm, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer

•Maggie E. Torres, Former Interim Chief Financial Officer and Former Interim Treasurer

•Scott R. Humphrey, Former Chief Financial Officer and Former Treasurer

•Toby D. Merchant, Chief Legal Officer, Chief Compliance Officer and Secretary

•Christopher J. Tutton, President, Specialty Sports Group

•Thomas L. Fletcher, President, Aftermarket Applications Group

Executive Summary

Our compensation programs are designed with the general goals and objectives of providing a market competitive pay package that achieves our talent needs (attracts, engages and retains) by directly aligning rewards to our business strategy to drive long-term stockholder value. For the Named Executive Officers, this is achieved by emphasizing performance-based annual cash and long-term equity incentive awards which provide the majority of this group’s target pay opportunity.

In making compensation decisions for fiscal year 2023, the Committee considered our financial results, our operating strategy and goals, and took into account a market analysis of peer group pay and our prior Say-on-Pay results. The first part of the year was generally tracking near our budget, which was the basis for the target financial goals. However, the second part of the year had significant unexpected challenges with softening in our end markets (including inventory recalibration in bike and UAW strike impacting our PVG and AAG businesses) and exogenous factors (including higher interest rates causing customers to be more conservative in their purchasing practices). Our performance directly impacted awards earned for the incentive cycles ending in 2023. In addition, the decline in our stock price experienced by our shareholders also impacted our executives, including NEOs, who experienced declining values in their holdings of FOX common stock and realized values below the grant date value upon the vesting of equity awards.

The Company performance metric we believe is most important to our stockholders is the same primary metric we used in determining performance-based cash incentive compensation in fiscal year 2023, adjusted EBITDA. We believe adjusted EBITDA directly correlates to stock price and is a good indicator of earnings and cash flow health. Additionally, for fiscal year 2023, in the Performance-Based RSU Award program (“PSUs”), we incorporated return on invested capital (“ROIC”) and free cash flow (“FCF”) which are equally weighted. We believe ROIC and FCF directly correlate to long-term company performance.

2023 Performance Highlights and Key Accomplishments

Full year 2023 financial results were generally below budget/targeted levels. This directly impacted our incentive award payouts for cycles ending in fiscal year 2023 and the previously awarded PSU cycles that remain outstanding.

Key Compensation Decisions for Fiscal Year 2023

•Base Salary. Effective in January 2023, Messrs. Dennison, Humphrey, Merchant, Tutton and Fletcher received a 5.4%, 4.8%, 4.8%, 4.4%, and a 4.9% market and merit-based increases in base salary, respectively.

•Annual Performance-Based Cash Bonuses. The Company’s Adjusted EBITDA for the fiscal year 2023 was $261.0 million, which was approximately 79% of the Company’s Target Adjusted EBITDA of $329.7 million set by the Board. As a result, no financial performance portion of the Cash Bonuses were paid out for fiscal year 2023.

•Equity Incentive Compensation. The Committee granted senior executives, including the NEOs, an equal mix of RSUs and PSUs in early 2023 for the 2023-2025 performance period. For the completed three-year (2021-2023) performance period, the Committee exercised discretion pursuant to the 2022 Omnibus Plan and the PSU portion of the award was approved at 200% of target reflecting above target performance for ROIC and FCF relative to the goals set in early 2021, adjusted for the UAW strike impact.

32

Mix of Elements of Compensation for Fiscal Year 2023

For fiscal year 2023, the mix of the key elements of compensation our Named Executive Officers were eligible to receive at target levels was as follows (excluding compensation of the type that would fall under “All Other Compensation” in our Summary Compensation Table):

Name	Base Salary %		Annual Performance-Based Bonuses % (AT TARGET)		Fair Value of Restricted Stock Granted %		Fair Value of Performance Stock Granted %
Michael C. Dennison	13.5	%	17.3	%	34.6	%	34.6	%
Dennis C. Schemm	25.2	%	20.4	%	31.8	%	22.7	%
Maggie E. Torres	85.4	%	14.6	%	—	%	—	%
Scott R. Humphrey	37.0	%	27.7	%	35.3	%	—	%
Toby D. Merchant	30.6	%	20.8	%	24.3	%	24.3	%
Christopher J. Tutton	28.8	%	19.2	%	26.0	%	26.0	%
Thomas L. Fletcher	32.6	%	21.9	%	22.7	%	22.7	%

Our executive compensation program is predominantly performance-based. As an executive’s ability to impact operational performance increases, so does the proportion of his or her at-risk compensation. Target short- and long-term incentive compensation (where applicable) grows proportionately as job responsibilities increase, which encourages our officers to focus on the Company’s long-term success and aligns with the long-term interests of our stockholders. For fiscal year 2023, we tied annual Cash Bonuses for our NEOs primarily to adjusted EBITDA, and we tied the earning of PSUs to ROIC and FCF goals. The Committee also takes into account Company performance when determining the number of RSUs and PSUs to be awarded to our Named Executive Officers (making such compensation “at-risk” to the performance of the Company).

The graphics below illustrate the mix of fixed and incentive compensation opportunities at target we provided to our Chief Executive Officer and other NEOs for fiscal year 2023.

While “Total Stockholder Return” is not used as a performance metric, the Committee when determining the total compensation packages of our Named Executive Officers considered it, along with other metrics. As shown below, the majority of the CEO’s target compensation opportunity is at-risk, subject to Company financial results and, for the long-term incentive, the value of equity earned reflects the stock price at the end of the multi-year performance/vesting period.

CEO COMPENSATION VS. TSR

*CEO compensation increased in 2021 primarily due to the creation and issuance of PSU grants which represent shares that are potentially issuable in the future based on the Company’s financial performance over a two - three year period, as well as additional cash bonus payouts which are also based on the Company’s financial performance.

Highlights of Executive Compensation Practices

What We Do	What We Do Not Do
ü Pay for Performance	X Hedging Transactions
The Company ties pay to performance, as evidenced in the above “Mix of Elements of Compensation for fiscal year 2023,” in which compensation not tied to performance, only makes up an average of 33% of the compensation mix for the Other Named Executive Officers.	Insiders are prohibited from engaging in hedging transactions with respect to the Company’s shares of common stock, in accordance with the Company’s Insider Trading Policy. See the “Hedging and Pledging Policy” section within “The Board of Directors” section for a more thorough discussion of the Company’s hedging and pledging policies.
ü Use of Market Data
The Company reviews market data for companies similar to FOX (in size and industry) to ensure executives and non-employee directors compensation opportunities are competitive with market median.
ü Clawback Policy	X Short-Term Trading
The Company maintains a Clawback Policy, allowing the independent directors of the Board to clawback all or a portion or any bonus or incentive compensation paid, or cancel stock-based awards granted to executive officers upon restatement or misstatement of financial results, or as required by law.	Insiders are prohibited from short-term trading in the Company’s shares of common stock, other than when such shares are acquired as a result of stock option exercise or other employee benefit plans, in accordance with the Company’s Insider Trading Policy.
ü Independent Compensation Consultant	X Recycle Stock Awards
In fiscal year 2023, Pay Governance LLC (“Pay Governance”) an independent compensation consultant, was engaged for a variety of purposes including undertaking a review of the Company’s peer group, and executive officers and Board compensation.	The 2022 Omnibus Plan does not permit the ability to recycle any shares underlying outstanding awards.
ü RSU Awards to Promote Long-Termism	X Reprice Awards
The Company awards RSUs as part of the long-term incentive grant mix, with long vesting periods up to three years, which are forfeited upon termination from employment, in order to promote long-term results.	Except in connection with a corporate transaction or event requiring an adjustment under the terms of the 2022 Omnibus Plan, the terms of outstanding equity awards may not be amended to reduce the exercise price of options or the grant price of stock appreciation rights, or cancel options or stock appreciation rights in exchange for cash, other awards or options or stock appreciation rights with an exercise price or grant price, that is less than the exercise price of the original options or grant price of the original stock appreciation rights, as applicable, without stockholder approval.
ü PSU Awards to Promote Long-Termism
The Company awards PSUs, with performance periods of up to three years, that vest based on the achievement of certain measures including ROIC and FCF. These awards are part of the long-term incentive grant mix, and are forfeited upon termination from employment, with the goal of promoting long-term results.
ü Stock Ownership Guidelines	X No Single Trigger and No Tax Gross-Up
Certain executive officers and non-employee directors of the Board are subject to stock ownership guidelines as the Company believes that ownership of significant amounts of FOX common stock helps to promote a long-term perspective in managing FOX and helps to ensure alignment with stockholders, capital markets and public interests.	No single trigger or tax gross-up on restricted or performance-based restricted stock units.
ü Risk Assessment
The Company conducts officer compensation program risk assessment reviews annually.

Oversight of Executive Compensation

The Compensation Committee

The Committee has sole responsibility for all elements of Named Executive Officer and non-employee director compensation. The Committee meets in executive session without the Chief Executive Officer to determine his compensation. The Committee evaluates the performance of the Chief Executive Officer against goals and objectives reviewed and approved by the Committee. The Committee also reviews the performance evaluation of all other Named Executive Officers, which are provided by the Chief Executive Officer. The Committee receives recommendations from the Chief Executive Officer as to compensation of other Named Executive Officers, and the Chief Executive Officer participates in Committee discussions regarding the compensation of such officers. The Committee operates pursuant to a written charter, which is available on our website at: http://investor.ridefox.com.

Each year, the Committee reviews the Company’s total compensation program to ensure that it is designed to achieve the Company’s business and compensation objectives. In conducting its annual review, the Committee considers information provided by our Human Resources staff, often including information from independent compensation consultants and compensation data service providers.

Compensation Consultant

For compensation-related decisions in fiscal year 2023, an independent executive compensation consultant, Pay Governance, was engaged to advise the Committee on compensation matters related to the executive and non-employee director compensation programs. In fiscal year 2023, Pay Governance assisted the Committee with, among other things:

•conducting executive and director market pay analysis;

•reviewing the compensation peer group (as discussed below);

•assisting with the Compensation Discussion and Analysis disclosures; and

•providing an update on market trends and emerging developments.

Pay Governance reports to the Committee and at the Committee’s direction, works with senior management, including the Human Resources staff. The Committee conducted a specific review of its relationship with Pay Governance in fiscal year 2023 and determined that the work performed for the Committee did not raise any conflicts of interest. Pay Governance’s work conformed to the independence factors and guidance provided by the Dodd-Frank Act, the SEC and the NASDAQ.

37

Use of Market Data Analyses

During fiscal year 2023, the independent consultant reviewed the Company’s peer group to ensure that all peers remain appropriate for go-forward market comparisons.

This review took into account revenue size, growth and profitability, as well as FOX’s GICS industry code, and broader related industry/company groupings such as leisure and high-value brand names.

For reference, in determining fiscal year 2023 executive compensation, the following peer group was used:

Brunswick Corporation	Chart Industries, Inc.	Columbia Sportwear Company
Crocs, Inc.	Deckers Outdoor Corporation	Enphase Energy, Inc.
ESCO Technologies Inc.	iRobot Corporation	Johnson Outdoors, Inc.
LCI Industries	Malibu Boats, Inc.	Sonos, Inc.
Topgolf Callaway Brands Corp.	Under Armour, Inc.	Vista Outdoor, Inc.
Winnebago Industries, Inc.	YETI Holdings, Inc.

In fiscal year 2023, the independent consultant was engaged to perform executive pay analysis based on the Company's peer group. In addition to the peer group, which discloses NEO pay data in proxy filings, the independent consultant also presented survey data of comparably sized companies from Radford’s 2023 Global Compensation Survey. The analysis covers compensation levels and mix among base salary, annual incentive and long-term incentives. The independent consultant developed target pay recommendations for the CEO position and worked with the Human Resources staff and CEO to develop recommendations for the other NEOs. The market data is only one of many factors that is considered in the making target pay decisions regarding executive compensation levels. Other factors include internal pay equity, level of responsibility, the individual’s performance, expectations regarding the individual’s future potential contributions, succession planning, retention strategies, budget considerations and the Company’s performance. The Committee relies on its collective experience and judgment along with the recommendations presented to set executive compensation.

Risk Assessment

In formulating and evaluating material elements of compensation available to Named Executive Officers, both the Committee and our Human Resources staff consider whether the design of any such programs may inadvertently encourage undue risk-taking behavior. To that end, the Committee took into consideration the many design features that, among other things, both align behavior to stockholder interest as well as serve to mitigate the likelihood of inducing excessive risk-taking behavior. Additionally, the Committee engaged Pay Governance, the Company’s independent executive compensation consultant, to undertake a summary review of fiscal year 2023 executive officer pay practices and to provide their professional opinion relative to risk assessment of the officer compensation program. Overall, Pay Governance found that the Company’s executive compensation program does not create risks that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company. This conclusion was based on the summary review that found many executive incentive design features that manage and mitigate risk, including performance-based annual and long-term incentives covering several financial measures with annual and three-year assessment periods, stock ownership guidelines and the governance and review process without diminishing the incentive nature of the compensation opportunities nor were there any commonly cited “red flags” found in the design of FOX’s officer compensation program. Based on the Committee’s summary review and other factors, including our continued focus on providing transparent, market-based competitive pay programs that align to our business strategy and support our talent management objectives, the Committee believes that the officer compensation program does not encourage excessive risk taking by executives.

Say-on-Pay Outcome and Stockholder Outreach Efforts

We value our stockholders' perspectives regarding our corporate governance, sustainability and executive compensation practices, as well as our business strategy and public disclosures. In May 2023, we received approximately 94% stockholder support for our Say-on-Pay proposal. Abstention votes and broker-non-votes approximated 3%.

Elements of Our Compensation Program

Our executive compensation program is designed to achieve our goals and objectives through rewarding our executives appropriately for their contributions to corporate growth, seeking to retain our executives and encouraging our executives’ active engagement in their roles. Our executive compensation program consists of the following elements:

Base salary

Performance-based bonus

(based, in whole or in part, on financial performance of the Company)

Awards of RSUs and PSUs

(subject to the discretion of the Compensation Committee)

Minimal benefits and perquisites

In addition to a 401(k) plan that is offered to our employees broadly, we also offer a non-qualified deferred compensation plan to executives and non-employee directors.

Base Salaries. We provide our Named Executive Officers with a base salary to compensate them for services rendered during the fiscal year and sustained performance. The purpose of the base salary is to reflect job responsibilities, value to us and competitiveness of the market. Salaries for our Named Executive Officers are determined by the Committee based on the following factors: nature and responsibility of the position and, to the extent available, salary norms for comparable positions, the expertise of the individual executive, the competitiveness of the market for the executive’s services, and, for all Named Executive Officers other than the Chief Executive Officer, the recommendations of our Chief Executive Officer. The Committee believes that the base salary of each of the Named Executive Officers is, particularly in light of each of their total compensation packages, competitive with the market.

39

The following table summarizes base salaries for our Named Executive Officers approved by the Committee for fiscal year 2023, as well as the base salary percentage increase over fiscal year 2022 base salaries:

Name of Executive Officer	Title	2023		2023
		Base Salary		Base Salary Increase (%)
Michael C. Dennison	Chief Executive Officer	$	975,000	5.4	%
Dennis C. Schemm	Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer	$	550,000	N/A
Maggie E. Torres	Former Interim Chief Financial Officer and Former Interim Treasurer	$	375,000	N/A
Scott R. Humphrey	Former Chief Financial Officer and Former Treasurer	$	550,000	4.8	%
Toby D. Merchant	Chief Legal Officer, Chief Compliance Officer and Secretary	$	440,000	4.8	%
Christopher J. Tutton	President, Specialty Sports Group	$	470,000	4.4	%
Thomas L. Fletcher	President, Aftermarket Applications Group	$	430,000	4.9	%

    As a result of the market pay benchmarking and broad market pay movement, combined with, among other things, the historic growth and performance of the Company as well as the demonstrated, ongoing performance by each of the executives, the Committee determined that base salary adjustments, which were effective at the start of fiscal year 2023 were warranted and necessary to be competitive in a today’s labor market.

Annual Performance-Based Cash Bonuses. Our practice is to award annual performance-based cash bonuses (each a “Cash Bonus”) to the Named Executive Officers, in accordance with the underlying formulas set forth in the Employment Agreements of each Named Executive Officer. Annual Cash Bonuses are designed to motivate and reward achievement of short-term financial objectives and to attract talent. The underlying factors for determining the amount of the Cash Bonuses vary among the Named Executive Officers. For fiscal year 2023, Messrs. Dennison and Humphrey would have been eligible to receive a Cash Bonus based only on the Company’s achievement of Company Target Adjusted EBITDA. Ms. Torres and Messrs. Schemm, Merchant, Tutton, and Fletcher would have been eligible to receive a Cash Bonus comprised of two parts: (1) Cash Bonus based on the Company’s achievement of Company Target Adjusted EBITDA, and (2) the executive’s achievement of certain individual performance objectives and overall ratings. However, no Named Executive Officer would be eligible to receive a Cash Bonus if the Company’s actual Adjusted EBITDA for fiscal year 2023 was under 90% of Company Target Adjusted EBITDA. Additionally, in order to encourage and reward longevity, the Named Executive Officers are not entitled to any Cash Bonus unless the Company employs the Named Executive Officer on the last day of the applicable performance period. In cases where the Company significantly outperforms targets, payouts can be earned up to the 200% of target Maximum Level.

For fiscal year 2023, no payouts were earned since Adjusted EBITDA was below the threshold goal.

	Bonus at Target %	Company Performance (adjusted Ebitda)						Individual performance goals
		Weighting	Threshold	Target	Max	Actual	% of Target Earned	Weighting	% of Target earned	Payout % of target
Michael C. Dennison	125%	100%	$296.7	$329.7	$362.6	$261.0	—%	N/A	N/A	N/A
Dennis C. Schemm	75%	75%	$296.7	$329.7	$362.6	$261.0	—%	25%	—%	—%
Maggie E. Torres	40%	50%	$296.7	$329.7	$362.6	$261.0	—%	50%	—%	—%

Equity-Based Awards. The Committee believes equity awards are another important component of executive compensation and serve to better align the interests of our executives with those of our stockholders. The Company awards restricted stock units, with long vesting periods, which are forfeited upon termination from employment, in order to promote long-termism. In determining whether to grant RSUs to certain NEOs, the Committee reviews its historical practice with respect to granting equity awards to such individuals. The Committee primarily utilizes RSUs, including those with performance conditions, as compared to other types of equity awards because of their simplicity for the recipient, their ability to serve as a retention tool and their ability to keep value. The Committee approves equity awards under our 2022 Omnibus Plan, as detailed below. For fiscal year 2023, the Committee determined to grant an equal mix, at target, of RSUs and PSUs as discussed below.

Time-Based RSU Awards

The Committee believes time-based RSU awards serve as a retention incentive for the Named Executive Officers. In March 2023, the Committee approved grants of time-based RSU awards under our 2022 Omnibus Plan to Mr. Dennison (21,005 RSUs), Mr. Humphrey (4,412 RSUs), Mr. Merchant (2,941 RSUs), Mr. Tutton (3,571 RSUs), and Mr. Fletcher (2,521 RSUs). Due to his departure from the Company in April 2023, only 1,500 RSUs of the 4,412 RSUs granted to Mr. Humphrey remained eligible for vesting. In June 2023, in connection with his hire as Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer, the Committee approved 7,481 grants of time-based RSUs to Mr. Schemm. The Committee did not approve any grants of time-based RSUs to Ms. Torres. All RSUs vest over three years (one-third each year), and only vest if the employee remains with the Company at the time of vesting. In determining the amount of these awards, the Committee considered primarily the executive’s position and level of responsibility within our Company, the retention and long-term incentive value of the award, the amounts of past awards that had not yet vested, and the prior granting practices outlined above.

Timing of RSU Awards

Annual grants of equity awards are typically determined at the Committee meeting with an effective grant date shortly after we report earnings for the fiscal year. This timing allows for the grants to be effective after the release of earnings information for the prior fiscal year when the public is aware of the information and the information is reflected in the stock price used to value the awards. The Committee does not time equity grant dates to affect the value of compensation either positively or negatively.

From time to time, special circumstances may cause the Committee to grant annual equity awards outside of the regular annual timeline. In such circumstances, the Committee continues to adhere to its practices of not timing equity grants to take advantage of material non-public information or affect the value of compensation either positively or negatively.

Performance-Based RSU Awards

In fiscal year 2023, the Committee approved PSUs to certain executives that represent shares potentially issuable in the future. Issuance is based upon the Company's performance, over a three-year performance period, based on achievement of ROIC and FCF goals. The PSUs vest only upon the achievement of the applicable performance goals for the performance period, and depending on the actual achievement on the performance goals, the grantee may earn between 0% and 200% of the target PSUs. The number of PSUs to be granted is calculated based on the stock price on the date of grant. In March 2023, the Committee approved grants of PSUs awards under our 2022 Omnibus Plan, at target, to Mr. Dennison (21,005 PSUs), Mr. Merchant (2,941 PSUs), Mr. Tutton (3,571 PSUs), and Mr. Fletcher (2,521 PSUs). In June 2023, in connection with his hire as CFO, the Committee approved a grant of 5,328 PSUs to Mr. Schemm. In fiscal year 2023, the Committee did not approve any grants of PSUs to Mr. Humphrey or Ms. Torres.

2021-2023 Performance-Based RSU Awards

In early 2021, the performance goals, as established by the Committee, for three-year PSU cycle, 2021 to 2023, for ROIC and FCF, were equally weighted. Actual performance, as adjusted for the UAW strike impact, exceeded the target goals of 12.8% ROIC and $263 million FCF. The Committee exercised discretion pursuant to the 2022 Omnibus Plan in determining the PSU award amount and, for the completed three-year performance period (2021-2023), approved 200% of the target award based on actual performance, as adjusted.

41

Retirement Plans and Policies. The Committee believes that retirement programs are important to the Company as they contribute to the Company’s ability to be competitive with its peers and reward our executive officers based on long-term performance of the Company and, therefore, are an important piece of the overall compensation package for the Named Executive Officers. For all eligible employees, including our Named Executive Officers, the Company provides a 401(k) plan. The 401(k) plan is a U.S. tax qualified retirement savings plan pursuant to which all eligible U.S. employees, including the Named Executive Officers, are able to make pre-tax contributions and after-tax contributions from their cash compensation. The Company makes matching contributions for all participants each year equal to 50% of their pre-tax contributions up to 6% of their total eligible Internal Revenue Code Section 415 compensation. The Company’s matching contributions to the 401(k) plan for fiscal year 2023 to the accounts of the Named Executive Officers are included in the “All Other Compensation” column in the Summary Compensation Table.

In fiscal year 2023, the Committee approved the 2023 Policy Regarding Terms Applicable to Restricted Stock Unit and Performance Share Unit Award Agreements in the Event of Qualified Retirement (the “Retirement Policy”). The purpose of the Retirement Policy is to identify certain terms and conditions for continued vesting of certain equity awards, including unvested RSUs and PSUs, granted under the 2022 Omnibus Plan after a qualified retirement. The Retirement Policy defines the criteria that must be met to be deemed a “qualified retirement.” The Retirement Policy applies to our executives, including NEOs, on the same terms as all employees.

Health and Welfare Benefits

Our Named Executive Officers are eligible to participate in all of our employee benefit plans, including our medical, dental, vision, group life and disability insurance plans, in each case on the same basis as other employees.

Perquisites and Personal Benefits

We pay certain premiums for term life insurance, accidental death and dismemberment, and short-term and long-term disability for all of our employees, including all of our Named Executive Officers. In order to live the FOX brand, our NEOs participate in an executive demonstration car program to increase the exposure of Company products by providing our officers the opportunity to drive vehicles produced by FOX for business and personal purposes.

Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation

On May 7, 2021, the Company entered into the Fox Factory Holding Corp. Deferred Compensation Plan (the “Plan”) with an effective date as of June 30, 2021. The Company intends the Plan to be an unfunded deferred compensation plan maintained for the exclusive benefit of the participants, who constitute a select group of management, employees and non-employee directors. The Plan is administered by a plan committee as appointed by the Committee. The Plan is intended to comply with Section 409A of the Code and will be unfunded for tax purposes and for purposes of Title I of ERISA. Mr. Tutton and Ms. Torres were the only Named Executive Officers who participated in this Plan during fiscal year 2023.

The table below provides the Plan activity for each Named Executive Officer that participated in the Plan in fiscal year 2023:

Equity-based Incentive Plans

2008 Stock Option Plan

Our Board adopted our 2008 Stock Option Plan, or the 2008 Plan, on January 4, 2008, and our stockholders approved the 2008 Plan in January 2008. The 2008 Plan was terminated upon the effective date of the 2013 Omnibus Plan. The Committee currently administers the 2008 Plan. Prior to the establishment of the Committee in July 2013, the 2008 Plan was administered by our Board based on recommendations of the Committee of our subsidiary.

Stock subject to the 2008 Plan. As of December 29, 2023, 5,499,126 shares of our common stock were issued under the 2008 Plan.

Stock options. The exercise price of all stock options granted under the 2008 Plan must equal at least 100% of the fair market value of our common stock on the date of grant (except for greater than 10% owners, as provided below). Incentive stock options granted under the 2008 Plan must be exercised within 10 years from the date of grant, and the period for exercising any non-statutory stock options is set by the Committee; provided, however, that an incentive stock option held by a participant who owns more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of our stock or of the stock of our parents or subsidiaries, may not have a term in excess of five years and must have an exercise price of at least 110% of the fair market value of our common stock on the grant date. The option price is payable only in cash, except if our Company undergoes a change of control, in which case the option price may be satisfied through shares obtained through exercise of the option in connection with the change of control. Subject to the provisions of the 2008 Plan, the Committee determines the remaining terms of the options (e.g., vesting and the period following a participant’s termination of service during which the participant may exercise his or her option, provided that in no event may an option be exercised later than the expiration of its term).

47

Plan termination. Upon the completion of our initial public offering, the 2008 Plan was terminated and no shares of our common stock remain available for future issuance under the 2008 Plan. However, the 2008 Plan continues to govern the terms and conditions of awards originally granted under the 2008 Plan. Shares that were subject to outstanding options under the 2008 Plan on August 13, 2013, that were subsequently forfeited or terminated for any reason before being exercise, became available for awards under the 2013 Omnibus Plan.

2008 Non-Statutory Stock Option Plan

Our Board adopted our 2008 Non-Statutory Stock Option Plan, or the 2008 Non-Statutory Plan, on May 6, 2008. The 2008 Non-Statutory Plan was terminated upon the effective date of the 2013 Omnibus Plan, August 13, 2013. The Committee currently administers the 2008 Non-Statutory Plan. Prior to the establishment of the Committee in July 2013, the 2008 Non-Statutory Plan was administered by our Board based on recommendations of the Compensation Committee of our subsidiary.

Stock subject to the 2008 Non-Statutory Plan. As of December 29, 2023, 689,966 shares of our common stock had been issued under the 2008 Non-Statutory Plan.

Stock options. The period for exercising any options granted under the 2008 Non-Statutory Plan is set by the Committee. The option price is payable only in cash, except if our Company undergoes a change of control, in which case the option price may be satisfied through shares obtained through exercise of the option in connection with the change of control. Subject to the provisions of the 2008 Non-Statutory Plan, the Committee determines the remaining terms of the options (e.g., vesting and the period following a participant’s termination of service during which the participant may exercise his or her option, provided that in no event may an option be exercised later than the expiration of its term).

Plan termination. The 2008 Non-Statutory Plan was terminated at the consummation of our initial public offering and no shares of our common stock remain available for future issuance under the 2008 Non-Statutory Plan. However, the 2008 Non-Statutory Plan continues to govern the terms and conditions of awards originally granted under the 2008 Non-Statutory Plan. Shares subject to outstanding options under the 2008 Non-Statutory Plan on August 13, 2013, that were subsequently forfeited or terminated for any reason before being exercised, became available for awards under the 2013 Omnibus Plan.

2013 Omnibus Plan

Share reserve. We have reserved 1,364,121 shares of our common stock for issuance under the 2013 Omnibus Plan, plus an additional number of shares equal to any shares that are subject to outstanding awards under the 2008 Plan and the 2008 Non-Statutory Plan and which either cease for any reason to be subject to such awards or are forfeited, canceled or repurchased at their original issue price. In addition, the following shares of our common stock are available for grant or issuance under the 2013 Omnibus Plan:

•shares subject to awards granted under the 2013 Omnibus Plan that are subsequently forfeited or canceled;

•shares subject to awards granted under the 2013 Omnibus Plan that otherwise terminate without shares being issued; and

•shares surrendered, canceled or exchanged for cash (but not shares surrendered to pay the exercise price or withholding taxes associated with the award).

Term. No awards under the 2013 Omnibus Plan were made after our stockholders approved the 2022 Omnibus Plan on May 6, 2022.

Award forms and limitations. The 2013 Omnibus Plan authorizes the award of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, unrestricted stock, performance-based compensation and other stock-based awards.

48

2013 Omnibus Plan benefits. No awards may be granted after May 6, 2022 to executive officers, directors and employees under the 2013 Omnibus Plan because our stockholders approved the 2022 Omnibus Plan. Information regarding individual awards to each of our Named Executive Officers during fiscal year 2023 is set forth under “Elements of Our Compensation Program - Equity-Based Awards” above. Additional information regarding our outstanding awards and available shares as of December 29, 2023 is set forth under “Equity Compensation Plan Information” above.

2022 Omnibus Plan

Share reserve. We have reserved 2,900,000 shares of our common stock for issuance under the 2022 Omnibus Plan. In addition, the following shares of our common stock are available for grant or issuance under the 2022 Omnibus Plan:

•shares subject to awards granted under the 2022 Omnibus Plan and 2013 Omnibus Plan that cease to be subject to awards or are subsequently forfeited or canceled;

•shares subject to awards granted under the 2022 Omnibus Plan and 2013 Omnibus Plan that otherwise terminate without shares being issued; and

•shares repurchased at their original issue price or awards paid in cash (but not shares surrendered to pay the exercise price or withholding taxes associated with the award) under the 2022 Omnibus Plan and 2013 Omnibus Plan.

Term. No awards under the 2022 Omnibus Plan will be made more than 10 years from the May 6, 2022 date our stockholders approved the plan.

Eligibility. Only our and our affiliates’ employees, consultants and board members are eligible to receive awards under the 2022 Omnibus Plan, although awards may be made, with the Board’s approval, to employees and consultants to whom an offer of employment has been or is being extended. The Committee determines who will receive awards, and all of their terms and conditions.

Administration. The Committee, all of the members of which are non-employee directors under applicable federal securities laws, administers the 2022 Omnibus Plan. The Committee has the authority to construe and interpret the 2022 Omnibus Plan, grant awards and make all other determinations necessary or advisable for the administration of the plan. Awards under the 2022 Omnibus Plan may be made subject to performance goals based upon performance criteria and other terms.

Amendment. The Board may amend, alter, suspend, or terminate the 2022 Omnibus Plan or any portion thereof at any time; provided that if an amendment to the 2022 Omnibus Plan that (1) would materially increase the number of securities which may be issued under the 2022 Omnibus Plan; (2) must otherwise be approved by the stockholders of the Company in order to comply with applicable law or the rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market; such amendment will be subject to stockholder approval and will not be effective unless and until such approval has been obtained; and provided, further, that any such amendment, alteration, suspension, or termination that would adversely affect in any material way the rights of any participant of any award previously granted shall not be effective without the written consent of the affected participant. Repricing of stock options and stock appreciation rights without prior approval of our stockholders is prohibited; and awards of stock options and stock appreciation rights may not include an automatic reload grant of additional stock options or stock appreciation rights in connection with the exercise or expiration of previously granted awards of stock options and stock appreciation rights.

49

Award forms and limitations. The 2022 Omnibus Plan authorizes the award of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, unrestricted stock, performance-based shares and units and other stock-based awards. For stock options that are intended to qualify as incentive stock options, or ISOs, under Section 422 of the Code, the maximum number of shares subject to ISO awards is 2,900,000. The maximum aggregate number of shares subject to awards granted to any non-employee director within any fiscal year of ours, taken together with any cash fees paid to such director during such fiscal year, shall not exceed $900,000. Awards granted under the 2022 Omnibus Plan shall vest no earlier than the one year anniversary of the grant date. However, such one-year minimum vesting requirement shall not apply to (1) substitute awards where more than one year has lapsed since the grant date of an acquired entity’s award, (2) shares delivered in lieu of fully vested cash-based awards where more than one year elapsed since the award’s grant date, (3) awards to non-employee directors that vest on the earlier of the one year anniversary of the grant date and the next annual meeting of stockholders which is at least fifty weeks after the date of the prior fiscal year’s annual stockholders meeting, and (4) any awards up to a maximum of 5% of the plan’s available share reserve. Notwithstanding the foregoing, such one year minimum vesting period shall not apply to accelerated exercisability or vesting of any award if a participant dies or becomes disabled.

Performance-based award criteria. The Committee may grant eligible plan participants performance share units or performance shares in accordance with the achievement of performance goals during a performance period. The Committee establishes performance goals in writing for the performance period, at least one year in duration, based upon performance criteria that may include one or more of the following criteria (either individually, alternatively or in any combination):

return on net assets	cash flows	return on assets	return on capital
revenue	average revenue	stockholder returns	return on invested capital
earnings per share	net earnings	operating earnings	profit margin
growth of business	enterprise value	operating expenses	free cash flow
share price	sales or market share	capital expenses	cost targets
earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization	equity market capitalization	return on stockholders’ equity

The Committee is authorized, in its sole discretion, to adjust, reduce, eliminate or waive any performance goals, in whole or in part, or subject to the plan’s one-year minimum vesting requirement, the vesting provisions of performance share units and performance shares.

2022 Omnibus Plan benefits. We cannot currently determine the number of shares subject to awards that maybe granted in the future to executive officers, directors and employees under the 2022 Omnibus Plan because the Committee, in its discretion, determines awards under the 2022 Omnibus Plan. Information regarding individual awards to each of our Named Executive Officers during fiscal year 2023 is set forth under “Elements of Our Compensation Program - Equity-Based Awards” above. Additional information regarding our outstanding awards and available shares as of December 29, 2023 is set forth under “Equity Compensation Plan Information” above.

Change of Control, Separation or Severance Benefits

Equity Awards

Both the 2013 and 2022 Omnibus Plans contain provisions that provide for the vesting of options and stock appreciation rights awarded thereunder, as well as the lapse of restrictions on and vesting of all incentive awards issued thereunder upon a “Change of Control” or a “Change in Control.” A “Change of Control” or a “Change in Control” are defined in the 2013 and 2022 Omnibus Plans to mean the occurrence of any of the following: (1) the sale, lease, transfer, conveyance or other disposition, in one or a series of related transactions, of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company to any “person” or “group” (as such terms are used in Sections 13(d)(3) and 14(d)(2) of the Exchange Act); or (2) any person or group, becomes the “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 under the Exchange Act, except that a person shall be deemed to have “beneficial ownership” of all shares that any such person has the right to acquire, whether such right is exercisable immediately or only after the passage of time), directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of the total voting power of the voting stock of the Company, including by way of merger, consolidation, or otherwise. The 2022 Omnibus Plan contains additional provisions in its Change in Control definition that includes a change in the composition of the Board such that individuals who, as of the beginning of any period of 24 months determined on a rolling basis, cease to constitute a majority of the incumbent Board.

Except as otherwise provided in an award agreement or by the Committee in a written resolution at the date of grant, to the extent outstanding awards granted under the 2013 or 2022 Omnibus Plans are not assumed, converted, or replaced by the resulting entity in the event of a Change of Control or Change in Control, all outstanding options and stock appreciation rights shall become fully exercisable, all restrictions with respect to outstanding awards shall lapse and such awards shall become vested and non-forfeitable, and any specified performance goals with respect to outstanding awards shall be deemed to be satisfied at target, provided that payment of restricted and performance awards or performance compensation awards shall be made in accordance with the provisions of the 2013 and 2022 Omnibus Plans.

Except as otherwise provided in an award agreement or by the Committee in a written resolution at the date of grant or thereafter, to the extent outstanding awards granted under the 2013 and 2022 Omnibus Plans are assumed, converted, or replaced by the resulting entity in the event of a Change of Control or Change in Control, (1) any outstanding awards that are subject to performance goals shall be converted by the resulting entity as if target performance had been achieved as of the date of the Change of Control; (2) each performance award or performance compensation award with service requirements shall continue to vest with respect to such requirements during the remaining period set forth in the award agreement; and (3) all other awards shall continue to vest (and/or the restrictions thereon shall continue to lapse) during the remaining periods set forth in the award agreement.

Except as otherwise provided in an award agreement or by the Committee in a written resolution at the date of grant or thereafter, to the extent outstanding Awards granted under the 2013 and 2022 Omnibus Plans are either assumed, converted, or replaced by the resulting entity in the event of a Change of Control or Change in Control, if a participant’s employment or service is terminated without Cause by the Company or an affiliate or a participant terminates his or her employment or service with the Company or an affiliate for “Good Reason” (if applicable), in either case, during the 24-month period following a Change of Control, all outstanding options and stock appreciation rights held by the participant shall become fully exercisable and all restrictions with respect to outstanding awards shall lapse and become vested and non-forfeitable.

51

Notwithstanding anything in the 2013 and 2022 Omnibus Plans or any award agreement to the contrary, to the extent any provision of the 2013 or 2022 Omnibus Plan or an award agreement would cause a payment of nonqualified deferred compensation that is subject to Section 409A of the Code (“Section 409A”) to be made upon the occurrence of (1) a Change of Control or Change in Control, then such payment shall not be made unless such Change of Control also constitutes a “change in ownership,” “change in effective control,” or “change in ownership of a substantial portion of the Company’s assets” within the meaning of Section 409A or (2) a termination of employment or service, then such payment shall not be made unless such termination of employment or service also constitutes a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A. Any payment that does not comply with the preceding sentence shall be made in accordance with the payment schedule that would have applied in the absence of a Change of Control, Change in Control or termination of employment or service, but disregarding any performance requirements and substituting the passage of time for any future service requirements and any performance periods. If a Change of Control constitutes a “change of control” within the meaning of Section 409A, any required payment shall be made in a lump sum within 10 business days of the Change of Control unless the Award Agreement specifies otherwise. If a termination following a Change of Control or Change in Control, qualifies as a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A, distribution will be made in a lump sum within 60 days of the separation from service date unless the Award Agreement specifies otherwise.

Employment Agreements

Each of our Named Executive Officers is party to an employment agreement, which provides, as applicable, certain change of control, separation or severance benefits. In May 2018, we entered into a new employment agreement with Mr. Tutton upon his promotion to President, Specialty Sports Group. In August 2018, we entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Dennison upon his hiring as President, Powered Vehicles Group and the employment agreement was amended in June 2019 upon his promotion to Chief Executive Officer. In August 2020, we amended the employment agreements for Messrs. Dennison and Tutton to remove specific target metrics in order to align and engage the employees in light of the COVID-19 pandemic. In April 2021, we entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Merchant upon his appointment as Chief Legal Officer and Secretary. In May 2021, we entered into a new employment agreement with Mr. Fletcher upon his promotion to President, PVG Business and Corporate Strategy. In connection with our realignment of PVG into the PVG and the AAG in the second quarter of fiscal year 2023, his title was modified to President, Aftermarket Application, with no new employment agreement being made. In June 2023, we entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Schemm upon his appointment to Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer. The employment agreements prohibit the Named Executive Officers from soliciting our employees for two years following the cessation of such NEO’s employment.

Termination by Mutual Agreement, Death, Disability, for Cause or Voluntarily

In the event a Named Executive Officer’s employment is terminated by mutual agreement of the parties, by the Company if the executive dies or becomes disabled, by the Company for “Cause,” or by the executive officer voluntarily, at any time (provided he provides not less than 90 days written notice), such executive officer is entitled to receive the following payments and compensation: (1) accrued and unpaid annual Base Salary for services rendered prior to the date of termination or resignation; and (2) reimbursement of any un-reimbursed business expenses as of the date of termination or resignation (collectively, “General Separation Payments”). Additionally, in the event a Named Executive Officer’s employment is terminated by the Company because the executive dies or becomes disabled, such executive officer is also entitled to receive a pro rata payment of the executive’s performance bonus (which the executive would have earned under his employment agreement if employed for the entire fiscal year in which termination occurs, payable during the year the applicable audited financial statements become available).

52

Termination without Cause or for Good Reason

In the event a Named Executive Officer’s employment is terminated by the Company without Cause or if the Named Executive Officer resigns for “Good Reason,” such executive officer is entitled to receive the following payments and compensation: (1) General Separation Payments, (2) the applicable Severance Payment (only upon the execution of a release); (3) a pro rata payment of the executive’s performance bonus (which the executive would have earned under his new employment agreement if employed for the entire fiscal year in which termination occurs, payable during the year the applicable audited financial statements become available); and (4) continued Company sharing in the cost of health care insurance during the period executive receives severance.

The “Severance Payment” amount to be paid with respect to a termination without Cause or for Good Reason shall equal the Named Executive Officer’s annual base salary as of the date of termination; provided, however, in the event of the “Good Reason” trigger being a reduction in Base Salary, then the Severance Payment amount shall equal the executive’s annual base salary prior to such reduction, provided that such severance amount is greater than the executive’s base salary at termination.

For purposes of the employment agreements, termination for “Cause” means with respect to a Named Executive Officer, one or more of the following: (1) willful or grossly negligent violation of any law which causes material injury to the business of our Company (or any subsidiary) or entry of a plea of nolo contendere (or similar plea) to a charge of such an offense; (2) conduct causing us or any of our subsidiaries significant public disgrace or disrepute; (3) any act or omission aiding or abetting a competitor, supplier, or customer of ours or any of our subsidiaries to the material disadvantage or detriment of us and our subsidiaries; (4) the executive’s willful violation of fiduciary duties to our Company or any subsidiary, including the duty of loyalty and the corporate opportunity doctrine; (5) commission of, or the act of fraud, dishonesty, misappropriation or embezzlement, or the executive’s commission of any felony offense; (6) material breach of the executive’s representations, warranties, or covenants under his new employment agreement or any other agreement between the parties hereto that, if curable and unrelated to a breach of his confidentiality obligations, remains uncured for 15 days following written notice thereof from us to executive; and (7) refusal to comply with our reasonable orders or directives (including refusal to perform, other than as a result of death or disability, material assigned duties or responsibilities that are consistent with normal business practices and his new employment agreement) or our (or our subsidiaries’) material and reasonable rules, regulations, policies, procedures or practices that are not inconsistent with the terms of his new employment agreement or applicable law, which continues uncured for 15 days following written notice thereof from us to the executive.

A resignation by a Named Executive Officer will be deemed a resignation for “Good Reason” if the executive provides written notice to the Company of the specific circumstances alleged to constitute Good Reason within 90 days after any one or more of the following events: (1) a reduction in executive’s base salary below the amount as of the date of his employment agreement (other than a substantially similar reduction applicable to all executives); (2) for Mr. Tutton only, the Company requiring, without the executive’s consent, that the executive relocate the executive’s principal place of business outside a 30-mile radius from the location where the executive is employed as of the effective date of his employment agreement or such other location as consented to by the executive; (3) material breach by us of his employment agreement; or (4) without the executive’s consent, a material reduction in the executive’s duties or responsibilities, such that the executive is no longer playing his current role or at least an equivalent position, as applicable. Where curable, the Company will have 30 days to cure such circumstances upon the receipt of notice from the executive.

CEO Pay Ratio

The SEC requires companies to disclose the ratio of the annual total compensation of their CEO to the median of the annual total compensation of their other employees.

Methodology and Pay Ratio

For fiscal year 2023, the median annual total compensation of all employees of FOX (other than our Chief Executive Officer) was $49,551. The annual total compensation of our Chief Executive Officer was $6,033,703, reflecting Mr. Dennison who served as Chief Executive Officer on the date upon which we selected to identify the median employee. Based on this information, the ratio of the annual total compensation of our Chief Executive Officer to the median annual total compensation of all employees for fiscal year 2023 was approximately 122 to 1.

The Company identified the “median employee” by using the following methodology and material assumptions, adjustments, and estimates (consistent with all applicable SEC rules):

•The Company selected December 29, 2023, the last day of FOX’s prior fiscal year, as the date upon which we would identify the “median employee.”

•As of this date, our employee population consisted of approximately 3,556 individuals, excluding employees on leaves of absence who are not expected to return to work.

•For purposes of determining our median employee, the Company excluded European and Australian employees that, in total, resulted in the exclusion of less than 5% of FOX's total number of employees as permitted under SEC rules. The Company also excluded 346 employees from Marucci Sports, LLC that was acquired in November 2023.

55

•The Company used fiscal year-to-date “gross cash earnings” paid through December 29, 2023 as our consistently applied compensation measure. In this context, gross cash earnings include any salary (including overtime), bonus, and/or commissions. Salaries were annualized for all permanent employees who were hired after the fiscal year began; all foreign currencies were converted to U.S. dollars.

•Once the Company identified the median employee, the Company calculated the elements of the median employee’s fiscal year 2023 total annual compensation in accordance with the requirements of Item 402(c)(2)(x) of Regulation S-K.

Pay vs. performance

This section should be read in conjunction with the CD&A, which includes additional discussion of the objectives of FOX’s executive compensation and benefit program and how they are aligned with the Company’s financial and operational performance.

RATIFICATION OF APPOINTMENT OF

INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

(PROPOSAL 2)

General

Our Audit Committee appointed Grant Thornton LLP as independent public accountants to examine our consolidated financial statements for fiscal year 2024, and determined that it would be desirable to request that the stockholders ratify the appointment.

You may vote “For” or “Against” this proposal, or you may “Abstain” from voting.

Grant Thornton LLP is an independent registered public accounting firm and audited our financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 29, 2023, December 30, 2022, and December 31, 2021. Based on its past performance during these audits, the Audit Committee selected Grant Thornton LLP as the independent auditor to perform the audit of our financial statements for fiscal year 2024. Information regarding Grant Thornton LLP can be found at www.grantthornton.com.

Representatives of Grant Thornton LLP are expected to be present at the Annual Meeting via live webcast, 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.

Fees

The following table sets forth the total amount billed to us for the fiscal years ended December 29, 2023 and December 30, 2022 by Grant Thornton LLP.

	Fiscal Year 2023		Fiscal Year 2022
Audit Fees (1)	$	2,716,806	$	2,310,029
Audit-Related Fees (2)	—		26,750
Tax Fees (3)	136,257		138,352
All Other Fees (4)	323,502		1,287
Total	$	3,176,565	$	2,476,418

(1)“Audit Fees” are aggregate fees billed by Grant Thornton LLP for professional services for the audit of our annual financial statements included in our annual reports on Form 10-K and for the review of our interim financial statements included in our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q or services that are normally provided by Grant Thornton LLP in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements.

(2) “Audit-Related Fees” are aggregate fees billed by Grant Thornton LLP for assurance and related services that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit or review of our financial statements and are not reported under “Audit Fees”. These services include consultations and audits related to mergers and acquisitions; and services related to offering of common stock and consents for registration statements.

(3)“Tax Fees” are aggregate fees billed by Grant Thornton LLP for professional services rendered in connection with tax compliance, tax advice and tax planning.

(4)“All Other Fees” consist of fees for services, other than those that meet the criteria above and include fees for permitted advisory services, specifically, operational audit services.

The Audit Committee evaluated Grant Thornton LLP’s qualification, performance and independence and determined that services provided by Grant Thornton LLP were permitted under the rules and regulations concerning public accountant’s independence promulgated by the SEC to implement the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as amended, as well as by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (the “PCAOB”).

61

Pre-Approval Policy

The Audit Committee’s policy is to pre-approve any independent accountant’s engagement to render audit and or permissible non-audit services (including the fees charged and proposed to be charged by independent accountants) subject to the de minimis exceptions under Section 10A(i)(1)(B) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and as otherwise required by law. Non-audit services may include audit-related services, tax services, or other services. The Audit Committee annually reviews whether the provision of permitted non-audit services is compatible with maintaining the accountant’s independence. The Audit Committee pre-approved all “Audit Fee”, “Audit-Related Fee” and “Tax Fee” in fiscal years 2023 and 2022.

Required Vote for Stockholder Approval

The affirmative vote of a majority of the shares present, in person or by proxy, at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote thereon is required to ratify the appointment.

Recommendation of the Board

The Board recommends that you vote “FOR” the ratification of the appointment of Grant Thornton LLP to serve as independent auditor for the Company for the fiscal year ending January 3, 2025.

62

AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT

Our Audit Committee is comprised of three independent directors, Ms. Hlay, Mr. Mendenhall, and Mr. Waitman, all of whom are financially literate. In addition, the Board designated Mr. Mendenhall and Ms. Hlay as the “audit committee financial experts” under the applicable SEC rules. The Audit Committee operates under a written charter, which reflects the requirements regarding audit committees under the Nasdaq Listing Rules and the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as amended. A current copy of the Audit Committee Charter is available on the Company’s website at http://investor.ridefox.com.

The Audit Committee’s primary role is to assist the Board in (1) retaining an independent public accountant; (2) overseeing the independent public accountant; (3) reviewing financial statements and disclosure matters; (4) compliance oversight; and (5) oversight of the Company’s internal audit function.

The Audit Committee reviewed and discussed our audited financial statements for the year ended December 29, 2023, with management and with Grant Thornton LLP. These audited financial statements are included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 29, 2023 (the "Annual Report").

The Audit Committee also discussed with Grant Thornton LLP the matters required to be discussed by the applicable requirements of the PCAOB and the SEC.

The Audit Committee also received and reviewed the written disclosures and the letter from Grant Thornton LLP required by applicable requirements of the PCAOB regarding Grant Thornton LLP’s communications with the Audit Committee concerning independence, and discussed with Grant Thornton LLP its independence from us.

Based on the review and discussions described above, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board that the audited financial statements be included in the Annual Report for filing with the SEC.

Members of the Audit Committee:

Jean H. Hlay, Chair

Dudley W. Mendenhall

Ted D. Waitman

The information contained in the report above shall not be deemed to be “soliciting material” or to be “filed” with the SEC, nor shall such information be incorporated by reference into any future filing under the Exchange Act or the Securities Act, except to the extent that we specifically incorporate it by reference in such filing.

ADVISORY VOTE ON THE COMPANY’S EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

(PROPOSAL 3)

We are providing stockholders with an opportunity to cast an advisory (non-binding) vote on the compensation of our Named Executive Officers as disclosed pursuant to the SEC’s compensation disclosure rules, including the CD&A, the compensation tables and the narrative disclosures that accompany the compensation tables (commonly referred to as “Say-on-Pay”) as required by Section 14A of the Exchange Act (15 U.S.C. 78n-1).

Accordingly, you are being asked to approve the following advisory resolution at the Annual Meeting:

“Resolved, that the compensation paid to the Company’s Named Executive Officers, as disclosed in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, the accompanying compensation tables, and the related narrative discussion in this Proxy Statement, is hereby approved.”

The advisory approval of the Company’s executive compensation is a non-binding vote on the compensation paid to the Company’s Named Executive Officers, as described pursuant to Item 402 of Regulation S-K, including the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” section, compensation tables, and the narrative discussions, set forth in this Proxy Statement.

As described in detail under “Executive Compensation - Compensation Discussion and Analysis,” our compensation programs are designed to attract, motivate and retain individuals who share our visions and values and who can consistently perform in such a manner that enables the Company to achieve its strategic goals. The Compensation Committee believes the Company’s executive compensation programs reflect a strong pay-for-performance philosophy and are well aligned with our stockholders’ long-term interests. Stockholders are encouraged to read the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” section, the accompanying compensation tables, and the related narrative discussion.

We currently hold our advisory vote on executive compensation annually. Thus, we expect to hold our next advisory vote on executive compensation at the 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

Because the vote on this proposal is advisory in nature, it will not affect any compensation already paid or awarded to our Named Executive Officers and will not be binding on the Board or the Compensation Committee. However, the Board and the Compensation Committee will consider the outcome of the vote when making future executive compensation decisions.

Required Vote for Stockholder Approval

The affirmative vote of a majority of the shares present, in person or by proxy, at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on the proposal is required to approve the advisory vote on executive compensation.

Recommendation of the Board

The Board recommends that you vote "FOR" the approval, on an advisory basis, of the resolution approving the compensation of our Named Executive Officers.

64

ADVISORY VOTE ON THE FREQUENCY OF FUTURE ADVISORY VOTES ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

(PROPOSAL 4)

In addition to providing our stockholders with the opportunity to cast an advisory vote on executive compensation, we are providing stockholders with an advisory vote on whether the advisory vote on executive compensation should be held every one, two or three years. We are providing this vote as required by Section 14A of the Exchange Act (15 U.S.C. 78n-1).

The Board believes that a frequency of every "One Year” for the advisory vote on executive compensation is the optimal interval for conducting and responding to a “say on pay” vote. The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, as amended, requires the Company to hold the advisory vote on the frequency of the "say on pay" vote at least once every six years.

The proxy card provides stockholders with the opportunity to choose among four options (holding the vote every one, two or three years, or abstaining) and, therefore, stockholders will not be voting to approve or disapprove the Board’s recommendation.

Because the vote on this proposal is advisory in nature, it will not be binding on the Board or the Compensation Committee. However, the Board and Compensation Committee will consider the outcome of the vote along with other factors when making its decision about the frequency of future stockholder advisory votes on the compensation of our Named Executive Officers.

Required Vote for Stockholder Approval

The frequency option (i.e., one year, two years or three years) that receives the plurality of votes cast on this proposal will be deemed the preferred option of stockholders.

Recommendation of the Board

The Board recommends that you vote for the option of every "ONE YEAR" for the frequency of future advisory votes on executive compensation.

65

SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT

The following table shows, as of March 5, 2024, the number of shares of our common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the only class of voting securities outstanding), beneficially owned by: (1) certain 5% beneficial owners; (2) each director and nominee for director; (3) each person who is named in the Summary Compensation Table; and (4) all directors and executive officers as a group. The applicable percentage ownership is based on 41,993,841 shares of common stock outstanding as of March 5, 2024. All holders of shares of common stock are entitled to one vote per share on all matters submitted to a vote of holders of shares of common stock.

The number of shares beneficially owned by each entity or individual is determined pursuant to Rule 13d-3 of the Exchange Act, and the information is not necessarily indicative of beneficial ownership for any other purpose. Under Rule 13d-3 of the Exchange Act, “beneficial ownership” includes any shares as to which the entity or individual has sole or shared voting power or investment power and also any shares that the entity or individual has the right to acquire within 60 days through the exercise of any stock option or other right. Unless otherwise indicated, each person has sole voting and investment power with respect to the shares set forth in the following table, subject to community property laws where applicable.
