April 6, 2023
Dear Shareholders,
In 2022, we concluded the second year of The Hardwire, our five-year strategic plan to drive profitable growth. Despite all the supply challenges that we had to face throughout the year, we continued to invest in long-term growth within our most profitable product segments and global markets. We are building capabilities that will allow us to expand our customer reach and experience, ultimately focusing on initiatives that create value for all our stakeholders.
Financial Highlights
Harley-Davidson continued its transformational journey in 2022, and even though the economic environment continues to evolve, we remain optimistic about the significant potential of our business. Our transformation requires a change in our overall approach and focus as a business to a more holistic view on profitable growth of Motorcycles, Parts & Accessories, Apparel & Licensing and Harley-Davidson Financial Services.
In 2022, this approach drove total consolidated revenue of $5.8 billion and operating income of $909 million, an increase of 8% and 10%, respectively, compared to the year before. Over the same period, we reported a 14% increase in net income, and we delivered full-year diluted earnings per share of $4.96, up 18% over 2021. Recognizing our strong performance, the Board of Directors approved cash dividends of $0.1575 per share in all four quarters of 2022.
The Hardwire
We made great progress within the six Hardwire pillars as we continue to focus on delivering long-term profitable growth.
Profit Focus
We are committed to strengthening and growing our position in our strongest motorcycle segments: Touring, Large Cruiser and Trike. Not only are these segments the most profitable in the market globally, but we also believe these segments offer potential to inspire more engagement, while compelling new customers and riders to choose Harley-Davidson.
Our 2022 line-up revealed eight new models, each powered by the Milwaukee-Eight® 117, the most powerful factory-installed engine ever offered by Harley-Davidson. We also turned up the intensity with the introduction of the Low Rider® El Diablo model, the newest addition to our limited-edition Icons Collection.
Selective Expansion and Redefinition
We are focused on building our leadership in our most profitable markets and exploring opportunities to redefine our category segments for the future. In April, we started a new chapter in Harley-Davidson's sport history with the launch of the Nightster® motorcycle, combining a classic Sportster silhouette with the performance of a Revolution® Max 975T V-Twin powertrain.
In June, we introduced the Enthusiast Collection, a line inspired by our community of passionate riders and their stories. Using a curated selection of existing Harley-Davidson models as its canvas, the Enthusiast Collection features a special edition paint scheme that celebrates the diversity and passion of our riding community. Our first release, the G.I. Enthusiast Collection, honors the longstanding community of Harley-Davidson riders that have served or are actively serving in the U.S. Armed Forces.
Lead in Electric
In 2022, we saw the completion of our business combination between LiveWire and AEA Bridges Impact Corp., with LiveWire becoming the first all EV motorcycle company to list on the New York Stock Exchange. As part of the brand’s evolution, we brought advanced design, technical innovation and engineering expertise to introduce the all-electric S2 Del Mar™ motorcycle, the first LiveWire model to feature the new S2 ARROW architecture.

2023 PROXY STATEMENT • HARLEY-DAVIDSON, INC. | i

LETTER FROM CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER AND CHAIRMAN

On the commercial front, we continue to build and mature our retail partner network, with a physical location in 90% of the top 40 metropolitan areas, all working as part of the omnichannel model designed to meet and exceed the expectations of our customers. We also opened the first LiveWire Experience Center, designed to offer a fully immersive experience in Malibu, California in early 2022.
Growth Beyond Bikes
We create products, services and experiences that inspire our customers to discover adventure and live the Harley-Davidson lifestyle. Our Parts & Accessories ("P&A"), Apparel & Licensing ("A&L") and Financial Services businesses are important to our future success as a global lifestyle brand.
Customization and service growth are the two main elements driving our P&A plan. Customization is an integral part of the overall Harley-Davidson lifestyle, and P&A allows us to have a truly personal relationship with our customers and their bikes. We’re also fostering service growth at the dealership, with an emphasis on convenience, expertise and value.
As one of the most recognizable brands in the world, we believe we have the ability to grow our lifestyle product to reach wider audiences with an increased focus on A&L as a key driver. We've been building our core apparel and licensing competency, including creating a best-in-class team to deliver on this ambition long term.
From Financial Services, we celebrated the one-year anniversary of H-D1™ Marketplace which now includes H-D Certified bikes, private seller listings and a pre-qualification process so it’s easy to find and finance the motorcycle that suits your needs. H-D1 Marketplace is the ultimate online destination for anyone who loves the sport of motorcycling and a platform for us to build our H-D community.
Integrated Customer Experience
Delivering our growth ambitions requires us to provide experiences that exceed expectations for modern retail, while leveraging digital and physical channels through enhanced omnichannel capabilities.
In 2022, we enhanced our reservations and pre-order systems and piloted a new inventory management and distribution system, reducing fulfillment time allowing for better availability without expanding in-dealership inventory.
We launched a new search engine on H-D.com to deliver personalized communications, content, merchandising and search results to drive deeper engagement and connections with our brand and we added additional features to the interactive Bike Builder function.
To enhance the customer experience at Harley-Davidson dealerships, we introduced the Project Fuel program, a facility program featuring modern designs for interiors and exteriors that tell the story of our brand, creating dealerships as destinations.
Inclusive Stakeholder Management
Prioritizing people, planet and profit is the unifying theme for how we think about our role in society, giving us purpose beyond financial performance.
We believe we all do better when embracing and promoting a diverse and inclusive workforce. We celebrated our 2 nd annual HDI Month of Inclusion with innovative programming for our employees and we partnered with United Way Worldwide to support humanitarian relief for Ukrainian citizens.
Looking ahead, we recently announced a redevelopment at our Juneau Avenue headquarters, which will start with a community park to serve our neighbors, the people of Milwaukee and our employees. Partnering with the Harley-Davidson Foundation and internationally acclaimed designers, Heatherwick Studio, this project will complement our new ways of working, while also making a big impact on our community.
You can read more about our Environmental, Social and Governance ("ESG") commitment on page ix of the proxy statement.
An Invitation
Since 1903, Harley-Davidson has pioneered American motorcycle design, technology and performance, and this year we’ll be marking our 120 th Anniversary with a year-long celebration culminating at the Harley-Davidson Homecoming™ Festival on July 13 - 16, 2023 in Milwaukee. It’s going to be an unforgettable milestone for the Company, celebrating the history, culture and community of Harley-Davidson with our riders and fans, reaching new customers and bringing more people to the brand. Our goal is to make Milwaukee the ultimate destination for moto-culture, and with this anniversary we are solidifying that commitment to our hometown and also to our broader community. I hope to see you all there.

LETTER FROM CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER AND CHAIRMAN

On behalf of everyone at Harley-Davidson, thank you for your investment and belief in the timeless pursuit of adventure and freedom for the soul. United we ride.

2023 PROXY STATEMENT • HARLEY-DAVIDSON, INC. | v

| PROXY SUMMARY

| Item 2 To approve, by advisory vote, the compensation of our Named Executive Officers Our Board of Directors unanimously recommends that you vote “FOR” this proposal.

Our executive compensation goals and guiding principles emphasize pay-for-performance. We base several elements of our compensation upon delivering high levels of performance relative to performance measures that the Human Resources Committee has approved. For example, (i) the annual Short-Term Incentive Plan ("STIP") and our performance shares require that we achieve financial performance before recipients are entitled to this compensation; and (ii) the equity component of our compensation program provides greater financial benefits when our stock price is increasing. Our goals and guiding principles are as follows:
● | Pay-for-performance | Reward exceptional performance with higher pay outcomes, while delivering reduced or no incentive pay when performance expectations are not met;
● | Align interests with those of our shareholders | Use equity-based awards and stock ownership guidelines to focus management on sustainable long-term growth and share price appreciation;
● | Encourage outcomes and behaviors | Balance rewarding the delivery of near-term results with long-term performance, while discouraging excessive or inappropriate risks;
● | Align measures with our strategy and operating plan | Select performance measures that reflect our strategic objectives with goals that are challenging yet achievable during the applicable period; and
● | Target pay competitively and appropriately | Typically set target compensation within a 20% range of the 50th percentile of our compensation peer group for target performance to remain market competitive and to attract and retain top executive talent.

| Item 3 To consider the frequency of the advisory vote on the compensation of our Named Executive Officers Our Board unanimously recommends a vote in favor of submitting the advisory vote on the compensation of our Named Executive Officers ("NEO") to shareholders “EVERY YEAR.” |
| In accordance with the executive compensation disclosure rules contained in Item 402 of Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) Regulation S-K, a “say-when-on-pay” vote must be submitted to shareholders every six years. Therefore, we are again asking shareholders whether the advisory vote on our NEO compensation should occur every year, once every two years or once every three years. You may also abstain from voting on this proposal. After considering the benefits and consequences of each option for the frequency of submitting the advisory vote on the compensation of our NEOs to shareholders, our Board recommends submitting the advisory vote on the compensation of our NEOs to our shareholders every year. |

| Item 4 To ratify the selection of Ernst & Young LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2023 Our Board of Directors unanimously recommends a vote “FOR” ratifying the selection of Ernst & Young LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2023.

We will also take action upon any other business as may properly come before the 2023 Annual Meeting of Shareholders and any adjournments or postponements of that meeting. The Board of Directors or proxyholders will use their discretion on other matters that may arise at the 2023 Annual Meeting of Shareholders to the extent authorized by Rule 14a-4(c) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

(the "Company") intends that certain matters discussed in this Proxy Statement are “forward-looking statements” intended to qualify for the safe harbor from liability established by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements can generally be identified as such by reference to this footnote or because the context of the statement will include words such as the Company “believes,” “anticipates,” “expects,” “plans,” “may,” “will,” “estimates,” “targets,” “intends,” "forecasts," "sees," or words of similar meaning. Similarly, statements that describe or refer to future expectations, future plans, strategies, objectives, outlooks, targets, guidance, commitments or goals are also forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially, unfavorably or favorably, from those anticipated as of the date of this Proxy Statement. Certain of such risks and uncertainties are described below. Shareholders, potential investors and other readers are urged to consider these factors in evaluating the forward-looking statements and are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements included in this Proxy Statement are only made as of the date of this report, and the Company disclaims any obligation to publicly update such forward-looking statements to reflect subsequent events or circumstances.
Important factors that could affect future results and cause those results to differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements include, among others, the Company's ability to: (a) execute its business plans and strategies, including The Hardwire, each of the pillars and the evolution of LiveWire as a standalone brand, which includes the risks noted below; (b) manage supply chain and logistics issues, including quality issues, availability of semiconductor chip components and the ability to find alternative sources of those components in a timely manner, unexpected interruptions or price increases caused by supplier volatility, raw material shortages, inflation, war or other hostilities, including the conflict in Ukraine, or natural disasters and longer shipping times and increased logistics costs, including by successfully implementing pricing surcharges; (c) realize the expected business benefits from LiveWire operating as a separate public company, which may be affected by, among other things: (I) the ability of LiveWire to: (1) execute its plans to develop, produce, market and sell its electric vehicles; (2) achieve profitability, which is dependent on the successful development and commercial introduction and acceptance of its electric vehicles, and its services, which may not occur; (3) adequately control the costs of its operations as a new entrant into a new space; (4) develop, maintain and strengthen its brand; (5) execute its plans to develop, produce, market and sell its electric vehicles; and (6) effectively establish and maintain cooperation from its retail partners, largely drawn from the Company's traditional motorcycle dealer network, to be able to effectively establish or maintain relationships with customers for electric vehicles; (II) competition; and (III) other risks and uncertainties indicated in the final prospectus of AEA-Bridges Impact Corp. ("ABIC") and other documents filed with the SEC by the Company, LiveWire Group, Inc. or ABIC, including those risks and uncertainties noted in “Risk Factors” under Item 1.A of the LiveWire Group Inc.'s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022; (d) accurately analyze, predict and react to changing market conditions and successfully adjust to shifting global consumer needs and interests; (e) successfully access the capital and/or credit markets on terms that are acceptable to the Company and within its expectations; (f) successfully carry out its global manufacturing and assembly operations; (g) develop and introduce products, services and experiences on a timely basis that the market accepts, that enable the Company to generate desired sales levels and that provide the desired financial returns, including successfully implementing and executing plans to strengthen and grow its leadership position in Grand American Touring, large Cruiser and Trike, and grow its complementary businesses; (h) perform in a manner that enables the Company to benefit from market opportunities while competing against existing and new competitors; (i) manage the risks related to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, such as supply chain disruptions, its ability to carry out business as usual, and government actions and restrictive measures implemented in response; (j) manage the regulatory compliance matter relating to a third-party supplier's component part in a manner that avoids additional costs or recall expenses that are material; (k) successfully appeal: (I) the revocation of the Binding Origin Information ("BOI") decisions that allowed the Company to supply its European Union ("EU") market with certain of its motorcycles produced at its Thailand operations at a reduced tariff rate and (II) the denial of the Company's application for temporary relief from the effect of the revocation of the BOI decisions; (l) manage and predict the impact that new, reinstated or adjusted tariffs may have on the Company's ability to sell products internationally, and the cost of raw materials and components, including the temporary lifting of the Section 232 steel and aluminum tariffs and incremental tariffs on motorcycles imported into the EU from the U.S., between the U.S. and EU, which expires on December 31, 2023; (m) prevent, detect and remediate any issues with its motorcycles or any issues associated with the manufacturing processes to avoid delays in new model launches, recall campaigns, regulatory agency investigations, increased warranty costs or litigation and adverse effects on its reputation and brand strength, and carry out any product programs or recalls within expected costs and timing; (n) manage the impact that prices for and supply of used motorcycles may have on its business, including on retail sales of new motorcycles; (o) successfully manage and reduce costs throughout the business; (p) manage through changes in general economic and business conditions, including changing capital, credit and retail markets and the changing domestic and international political environments, including as a result of the conflict in Ukraine; (q) continue to develop the capabilities of its distributors and dealers, effectively implement changes relating to its dealers and distribution methods and manage the risks that its dealers may have difficulty obtaining capital and managing through changing economic conditions and consumer demand; (r) continue to develop and maintain a productive relationship with Zhejiang Qianjiang Motorcycle Co., Ltd. and launch related products in a timely manner; (s) maintain a productive relationship with Hero MotoCorp as a distributor and licensee of the Harley-Davidson brand name in India; (t) successfully maintain a manner in which to sell motorcycles in China and the Company's Association of Southeast Asian Nations ("ASEAN") countries that does not subject its motorcycles to incremental tariffs; (u) manage its Thailand corporate and manufacturing operation in a manner that allows the Company to avail itself of preferential free trade agreements

and duty rates, and sufficiently lower prices of its motorcycles in certain markets; (v) accurately estimate and adjust to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates and commodity prices; (w) retain and attract talented employees, and eliminate personnel duplication, inefficiencies and complexity throughout the organization; (x) prevent a cybersecurity breach involving consumer, employee, dealer, supplier, or Company data and respond to evolving regulatory requirements regarding data security; (y) manage the credit quality, the loan servicing and collection activities, and the recovery rates of Harley-Davidson Financial Services' loan portfolio; (z) adjust to tax reform, healthcare inflation and reform and pension reform, and successfully estimate the impact of any such reform on the Company’s business; (aa) manage through the effects inconsistent and unpredictable weather patterns may have on retail sales of motorcycles; (bb) implement and manage enterprise-wide information technology systems, including systems at its manufacturing facilities; (cc) manage changes, prepare for and respond to evolving requirements in legislative and regulatory environments related to its products, services and operations; (dd) manage its exposure to product liability claims and commercial or contractual disputes; (ee) continue to manage the relationships and agreements that the Company has with its labor unions to help drive long-term competitiveness; (ff) achieve anticipated results with respect to the Company's pre-owned motorcycle program, Harley-Davidson Certified, the Company's H-D1 Marketplace and Apparel and Licensing; (gg) accurately predict the margins of its segments in light of, among other things, tariffs, inflation, foreign currency exchange rates, the cost associated with product development initiatives and the Company's complex global supply chain; and (hh) optimize capital allocation in light of the Company's capital allocation priorities.
The Company’s ability to sell its motorcycles and related products and services and to meet its financial expectations also depends on the ability of the Company’s dealers to sell its motorcycles and related products and services to retail customers. The Company depends on the capability and financial capacity of its dealers to develop and implement effective retail sales plans to create demand for the motorcycles and related products and services they purchase from the Company. In addition, the Company’s dealers and distributors may experience difficulties in operating their businesses and selling Harley-Davidson motorcycles and related products and services as a result of weather, economic conditions, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, or other factors.
In recent years, Harley-Davidson Financial Services ("HDFS") experienced historically low levels of retail credit losses, but credit losses have been normalizing in recent quarters. The Company believes that HDFS's retail credit losses could change over time due to changing consumer credit behavior, macroeconomic conditions including the impact of inflation, and HDFS's efforts to adjust underwriting criteria based on market and economic conditions, as well as actions that the Company has taken and could take that impact motorcycle values.
The Company's operations, demand for its products and its liquidity could be adversely impacted by work stoppages, facility closures, strikes, natural causes, widespread infectious disease, terrorism, war or other hostilities, including the conflict in Ukraine, or other factors. Refer to “Risk Factors” under Item 1.A of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 for a discussion of additional risk factors and a more complete discussion of some of the cautionary statements noted above.

PROXY SUMMARY |

INCLUSIVE STAKEHOLDER MANAGEMENT
The Hardwire, our five-year strategic plan, targets profitable growth and increased shareholder value based on expanding the desirability of Harley-Davidson. With the implementation of The Hardwire, the Company is taking an inclusive stakeholder management approach to optimize long-term value for all stakeholders. This broader focus on the Company’s stakeholders across people-planet-profit means focused attention on inclusion and belonging, positive impact in our communities, environmental sustainability, good governance practices and corporate transparency. We report on these efforts in our annual Inclusive Stakeholder Management ("ISM") Report. The 2021 ISM Report was published in April 2022. Our 2022 ISM Report will be published later this year. As noted in those reports, we have implemented several initiatives, set certain goals and reached certain milestones, including the following:
Environmental:
•Signed onto the Business Ambition for 1.5°C campaign from We Mean Business and the UN-backed Race to Zero campaign, formalizing our commitments based on the principles of the Science Based Targets initiative ("SBTi") to keep the earth’s temperature rise below 1.5°C.
•Achieved almost 40% reduction of GHG emissions from 2017 through 2022 at our U.S. operations, against our goal of 50% reduction by 2030, which is part of our commitment to the Better Climate Challenge from the United States Department of Energy.
•Maintained fleet average fuel economy of 44.6 mpg across our 2022 production units.
•Submitted responses to the CDP Climate questionnaire as a first-time responder. This exercise allowed the Company to identify areas of opportunity, including further integrating Environmental, Social and Governance ("ESG") initiatives across the business to better drive and measure our performance and progress.
•Continued to investigate and develop innovative materials and solutions for the design and development of future products, such as plant-based plastic and leather, increasing the use of recycled plastic and reducing usage of virgin plastic, while increasing the recyclability of certain parts and products through efforts led by our Materials Innovation and Sustainability Council and supporting teams.
Social:
Inclusion, Belonging and Employee Wellbeing:
•Continued with a commitment to a flexible workplace environment by not mandating “days in the office” while maintaining a hybrid mindset. In April 2022, the Company updated our vacation policy, implementing a flexible policy that does not limit vacation time, rather allowing eligible employees to manage and flex their time off while meeting their performance objectives.
•Extended, to all U.S. employees, the availability of free, confidential financial education and one-on-one support through a partnership with Operation HOPE, a non-profit organization dedicated to financial dignity and inclusion.
•Continued efforts to further diversify the workforce. As of December 31, 2022, the Company’s global workforce was comprised of approximately 6,300 employees, including approximately 5,500, 200 and 600 employees within the Harley-Davidson Motor Company ("HDMC"), LiveWire and HDFS segments, respectively. Of all employees, 84.7% are based in the U.S., 55.6% are salaried and 39.1%, or approximately 2,500, are hourly unionized employees at the Company's U.S. manufacturing facilities. Based on employee-provided identity information, 28.8% of the Company’s global workforce was female and 23.8% of the U.S. workforce was non-white at the end of 2022.
•Continued to implement our revamped Total Rewards approach, which included pay for performance, pay transparency and annual market evaluations. In addition, an equity evaluation was conducted by an external party. The Company continues to focus on managing healthcare costs through education and wellness activities and in 2022 did not pass any additional costs on to the workforce while continuing to provide above market medical, dental and vision benefits.
•Continued its strong health and safety performance through 2022 with its best performance in history, ending the year with a 0.4 recordable rate, 0.2 restricted time (DART) rate and 0.2 lost time (DAFWII) rate for the Company.
•Expanded deeper inclusive leadership experiences through participating in the YWCA of Southeast Wisconsin’s Conversations on Race program. Also, approximately 70 leaders across the Company participated in a two-day Courageous Leader DEI Summit.
•Hosted a leadership and culture series that involved 1,075 employees in nine targeted topics, enabling them to learn and connect with others around the world, while helping the Company continue its journey of building an H-D#1 culture. Over 500 employees participated in the New Employee Community onboarding experience to strengthen their transition into the Company. Forty leaders participated in 1:1 coaching to support their leadership development and 2,570 people consumed 27,669 on-demand digital learning items through our online learning portal, an increase of 4%. In addition,

the Company engaged employees in asynchronous dialogue on Teams forums, reaching over 2,000 employees through various leadership and learning channels.
Positive Impact in Our Communities:

This new program encouraged employees to make meaningful impacts in their local communities while also deepening relationships and contributing positively to their physical and mental health.

Also developed a HDF conflict of interest policy and HDF logo, which supports The Hardwire strategy to ensure robust governance and transparency with ethical social impact practices and program oversight.
•Contributed $310,000 along with more than 273 employee volunteer hours to 16 organizations in Nevada through the HDFS (Eaglemark Savings Bank) Community Reinvestment Act program.
•Partnered with United Way of Greater Milwaukee & Waukesha County and Near West Side Partners to support 15 families at the risk of eviction.
Governance:
•The Company’s corporate governance structure has been aligned to meet the expectations of shareholders, customers and employees and includes robust corporate governance practices and shareholder rights, such as:
◦annual election of all Directors
◦dedicated committee focused on brand and sustainability
◦no Director serves on an excessive number of public company boards

COMPENSATION GOVERNANCE HIGHLIGHTS

April 6, 2023
The Board of Directors (the "Board") of Harley-Davidson, Inc. requests the proxy accompanying this Proxy Statement for use at the 2023 Annual Meeting of Shareholders virtual meeting on May 18, 2023 at 4:00 p.m. Central Daylight Time, and at any adjournment or postponement of that meeting (the “Annual Meeting”). We will hold the Annual Meeting virtually (via live audio webcast), and you will not be able to attend the Annual Meeting physically. You or your proxyholder may participate and vote at the Annual Meeting by visiting www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/HOG2023 and using your control number found on your proxy card.
We first mailed the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials to shareholders on April 6, 2023. The Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials instructs shareholders and beneficial owners of our Common Stock on how they may access our proxy materials, which include our Proxy Statement and 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K, via the internet. You will not receive a printed copy of the proxy materials unless you request to receive these materials by following the instructions we provide later in this Proxy Statement and in the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials. Instead, the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials will instruct you on how you may access and review all of the important information contained in the proxy materials. The Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials also instructs how you may submit your proxy via the Internet, mail, or telephone, or by virtual presence online at the Annual Meeting. If you received a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials by mail and would like to receive a printed copy of our proxy materials, you should follow the instructions we provide later in this Proxy Statement.
As used in this Proxy Statement, “we,” “our,” the “Company” or “Harley-Davidson” refers to Harley-Davidson, Inc. We operate in three segments: the Harley-Davidson Motor Company ("HDMC") segment, the LiveWire segment and the Harley-Davidson Financial Services ("HDFS") segment.

2023 PROXY STATEMENT • HARLEY-DAVIDSON, INC. | 1

PROPOSAL 1: ELECTION OF DIRECTORS
Shareholders will elect nine Directors at the 2023 Annual Meeting. We have significantly refreshed our Board since the 2016 Annual Meeting of Shareholders with six new Directors. Three of the Director nominees - Ms. Sylvester and Messrs. Alstead and Golston - became Directors after the 2016 Annual Meeting of Shareholders and before the 2017 Annual Meeting of Shareholders. Additionally, Mr. Farley joined the Board in 2021, and Mr. Dourdeville 1 and Mr. Masood joined the Board in 2022.
Our Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended (“Restated Articles of Incorporation”) provide for a Board that has between six and fifteen members. The Board determines the size from time to time by the vote of a majority of the current Directors. The entire Board is elected for a term to hold office until the next Annual Meeting of Shareholders, or until their successors have been elected and qualified. The Board currently consists of eleven members with terms that expire at the Annual Meeting. Two of our Directors, R. John Andersen and Michael J. Cave, advised the Company that they did not desire to stand for re-election at the Annual Meeting. As a result, the Board acted to reduce the size of the Board to nine persons effective at this Annual Meeting. Accordingly, following the election of Directors at this Annual Meeting, our Board will continue to have nine members and no vacancies.
Our By-laws, as amended and restated (“By-laws”), have a majority voting standard for the election of Directors. Because this is an uncontested election, the number of votes cast favoring each Director nominee’s election must exceed 50% of the total number of votes cast with respect to that nominee’s election, including any votes withheld, for shareholders to elect the nominee. Therefore, a “withheld” vote is effectively a vote “against” a nominee. Broker non-votes will be disregarded in the calculation of the majority vote. If an incumbent Director is not elected, such incumbent Director must tender their resignation to the Board promptly following certification of the shareholder vote. The incumbent Director’s tendered resignation letter shall become effective sixty days aft er the election vote is certified unless the reviewing Directors decide to reject the resignation; the reviewing Directors shall accept a tendered resignation unless they determine that there is a compelling reason or reasons to not accept the resignation, which the Company must disclose. In addition, when a Director whose resignation is rejected remains on the Board as a holdover Director but fails to be re-elected at the next election of Directors, their tendered resignation will be automatically effective thirty days after the certification of the election vote, with no ability to reject the tendered resignation.
Unless you specify otherwise in your proxy, the persons you appointed will vote your shares “FOR” each of the Board's nominees that we name below. Each of the Board's nominees has consented to being named in this Proxy Statement and has agreed to serve if elected. If any of the Board's nominees becomes unable to serve, the persons you appointed may vote your shares for another person that the Board designates.
1 Mr. Dourdeville was initially appointed as a Director by the Board in February 2022 pursuant to a Cooperation Agreement (the “Cooperation Agreem ent”) with H Partners Management, LLC and certain of its affiliates (collectively, “H Partners”). During the period ending 10 days after Mr. Dourdeville or any replacement that H Partners designate under the Cooperation Agreement is no longer serving on the Board, H Partners has agreed to certain restrictions, including, among other things, agreeing not to: (i) acquire beneficial or other ownership in excess of 14.99% of the Company’s then outstanding shares of common stock, (ii) nominate or recommend for nomination any person for election to the Board, (iii) submit any proposal for consideration at, or bring any other business before, any shareholder meeting, or (iv) solicit any proxy, consent, or other authority to vote of shareholders or conduct any other referendum (including any “withhold,” “vote no,” or similar campaign) with respect to, or from the holders of, the Company’s shares. If Mr. Dourdeville is unable or unwilling to serve as a Director or resigns as a Director, then for so long as (A) H Partners continuously beneficially owns in the aggregate at least the lesser of 3.0% of our then outstanding Common Stock and 4,616,307 shares of Common Stock and (B) H Partners Group is not in material breach of the Cooperation Agreement, H Partners has the ability within 30 days of Mr. Dourdeville's departure from the Board to recommend a substitute full-time employee of H Partners to replace Mr. Dourdeville in accordance with the requirements outlined in the Cooperation Agreement. The Cooperation Agreement also includes certain confidentiality provisions.

PROPOSALS TO BE VOTED ON |

PROPOSAL 2: APPROVAL, BY ADVISORY VOTE, OF THE COMPENSATION OF OUR NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS
Our shareholders may approve, on a non-binding, advisory basis, our Named Executive Officer (“NEO”) compensation as disclosed in accordance with the executive compensation disclosure rules contained in Item 402 of SEC Regulation S-K. At our 2017 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, we held a non-binding, advisory shareholder vote on the frequency of future advisory shareholder votes on the compensation of our NEOs. In 2017, our shareholders expressed a preference that advisory shareholder votes on the compensation of our NEOs be held on an annual basis, and as previously disclosed, the Company continued the policy to hold such votes annually. Accordingly, as required by Section 14A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, we are asking shareholders to approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of our NEOs. At the Annual Meeting, we are again asking shareholders to express their preference regarding the frequency of holding this advisory vote. See Proposal 3.
The vote on this proposal is not intended to address any specific element of compensation; rather, the vote relates to the compensation of our NEOs as disclosed in the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” section and the accompanying executive compensation tables and narrative discussion contained in this Proxy Statement. The Company asks that you support the compensation of our NEOs as so disclosed. Because your vote is advisory, it will not be binding on the Human Resources Committee, the Board, or the Company. However, the Human Resources Committee will carefully review the voting results and consider them when making future decisions regarding executive compensation.

Our executive compensation goals and guiding principles emphasize pay-for-performance. We base several elements of our standard compensation upon delivering high levels of performance relative to performance measures that the Human Resources Committee has approved. For example, (i) the annual Short-Term Incentive Plan ("STIP") and the performance shares require that we achieve financial performance before recipients are entitled to this compensation; and (ii) the equity component of our compensation program provides greater financial benefits when our stock price is increasing. Our goals and guiding principles are as follows:
● | Pay-for-performance | Reward exceptional performance with higher pay outcomes, while delivering reduced or no incentive pay when performance expectations are not met;
● | Align interests with those of our shareholders | Use equity-based awards and stock ownership guidelines to focus management on sustainable long-term growth and share price appreciation;
● | Encourage outcomes and behaviors | Balance rewarding the delivery of near-term results with long-term performance, while discouraging excessive or inappropriate risks;
● | Align measures with our strategy and operating plan | Select performance measures that reflect our strategic objectives with goals that are challenging yet achievable during the applicable period; and
● | Target pay competitively and appropriately | Typically set target compensation within a 20% range of the 50th percentile of our compensation peer group for target performance to remain market competitive and to attract and retain top executive talent.

We describe the individual elements that make up our total compensation more fully in the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” section of this Proxy Statement. We believe our executive compensation program is structured to best support our Company and our business objectives.
In 2021, significant changes were made to our executive compensation program to simplify our incentive plan designs, provide more direct alignment with shareholders and focus on the retention of key executives. For 2022, we generally maintained the same executive compensation program design we implemented in 2021 as we believe the 2021 changes remain aligned to The Hardwire, the Company's five-year strategic plan.
At year-end 2022, driven by our strong performance in 2022, actual results for our 2022 short-term incentive plan were above our target performance goal, resulting in a payout to all participants equal to 114.1% of their target award. There was not a payout under our performance shares for the 2020-2022 performance period as none of the NEOs held these awards given they were new to their positions since grants were made.
At our 2022 Annual Meeting, 64% of the shares voted approved the proposal to adopt the 2022 Aspirational Incentive Plan, which was recommended by H Partners, a large shareholder with Board and Human Resources Committee representation. The goal of the Aspirational Incentive Plan is to incentivize exceptional performance that is highly aligned with shareholder outcomes. Under the Aspirational Incentive Plan, up to 1.5 million performance shares under the AIP were to be granted to Mr. Zeitz and up to an aggregate 1.5 million performance shares under the AIP were to be granted to a select group of other executive leaders, including our NEOs. We finalized these grants in August 2022. Participants earn shares only to the extent that share price targets are met by December 31, 2025. For recipients to earn shares under the Aspirational Incentive Plan, the Company's share price must increase from the grant date value of $41.20 to $70.00 at the lowest share price threshold - a near doubling of the stock price - and to $130.00 at the highest share price threshold, or more than a tripling of the stock price. As of the record date for the

2023 PROX Y STA TEMENT • HARLEY-DAVIDSON, INC. |  | 11

| PROPOSALS TO BE VOTED ON

Annual Meeting, none of the share price thresholds have been met; thus, no Aspirational Performance Shares have been earned.
Accordingly, for the reasons we discuss above, the Board recommends that shareholders vote in favor of the compensation of our NEOs as disclosed pursuant to Item 402 of Regulation S-K, including the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, compensation tables and narrative discussion.
The votes cast “for” this proposal must exceed the votes cast “against” this proposal for approval of the compensation of our NEOs, assuming that a quorum is present. For purposes of determining the vote regarding this proposal, abstentions and broker non-votes do not constitute a vote “for” or “against” the proposal and will be disregarded in the calculation of “votes cast.” Proxies solicited by the Board will be voted “FOR” approval of the compensation unless a shareholder specifies otherwise.

| THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE “FOR” APPROVAL OF THE COMPENSATION OF OUR NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS AS DISCLOSED IN THE COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS SECTION AND THE ACCOMPANYING COMPENSATION TABLES AND NARRATIVE DISCUSSION CONTAINED IN THIS PROXY STATEMENT.

PROPOSALS TO BE VOTED ON |

PROPOSAL 3: CONSIDER THE FREQUENCY OF THE ADVISORY VOTE ON THE COMPENSATION OF OUR NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS
At our 2017 Annual Meeting, our shareholders approved, on an advisory vote basis, holding an annual advisory vote on our Named Executive Officer (“NEO”) compensation. In accordance with the executive compensation disclosure rules contained in Item 402 of SEC Regulation S-K, this “say-when-on-pay” vote must be submitted to shareholders every six years.
After considering the benefits and consequences of the frequency of submitting the advisory vote on the compensation of our NEOs to shareholders, the Board believes it is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders to continue with our current practice by submitting the advisory vote on the compensation of our NEOs to our shareholders every year.
Therefore, the Board recommends that shareholders vote in favor of holding an advisory vote on the compensation of our NEOs at an annual meeting of shareholders every year. Shareholders should be aware that they are not voting “for” or “against” the Board’s recommendation regarding the frequency of the advisory vote on NEO compensation. Rather, shareholders will be casting votes to recommend to our Board an advisory vote on the compensation of our NEOs every year, once every two years or once every three years, or they may abstain entirely from voting on the proposal.
The option on the frequency of the advisory vote on the compensation of our NEOs that receives the most votes from shareholders will be considered by the Board and Human Resources Committee as the shareholders’ recommendation as to the frequency of future advisory votes on the compensation of our NEOs. While the outcome of this advisory vote is not binding on us or the Board, the Board will review and consider the outcome of this vote when making determinations as to when the advisory vote on the compensation of our NEOs will again be submitted to shareholders for approval at our Annual Meeting of Shareholders.

| THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE TO SUBMIT THE ADVISORY VOTE ON THE COMPENSATION OF OUR NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS TO SHAREHOLDERS “EVERY YEAR.”

PROPOSAL 4: RATIFICATION OF THE SELECTION OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
Ernst & Young LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, performed an audit of our consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 and the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2022. The Audit and Finance Committee is responsible for the appointment, compensation, retention and oversight of the independent auditors retained to audit our financial statements. The Audit and Finance Committee selected Ernst & Young LLP to serve as our independent registered public accounting firm for the 2023 fiscal year, and the Audit and Finance Committee is presenting this selection to shareholders for ratification. Ernst & Young LLP has served as our independent auditor since 1982. Representatives of Ernst & Young LLP will be present at the Annual Meeting to respond to shareholders' questions and to make a statement, if they so desire.
If, prior to the Annual Meeting, Ernst & Young LLP declines to act as our independent registered public accounting firm or the Audit and Finance Committee does not want to use Ernst & Young LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm, the Audit and Finance Committee will appoint another independent registered public accounting firm. The Audit and Finance Committee will present any new independent registered public accounting firm for the shareholders to ratify at the Annual Meeting. If the shareholders do not ratify the engagement of Ernst & Young LLP at the Annual Meeting, then the Audit and Finance Committee will reconsider its selection of Ernst & Young LLP.
To ratify the selection of Ernst & Young LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2023, the votes cast “for” this proposal must exceed the votes cast “against” it. For purposes of determining the vote regarding this proposal, abstentions and broker non-votes do not constitute a vote “for” or “against” the proposal and will be disregarded in the calculation of “votes cast.” Unless you specify otherwise in your proxy, the persons you have appointed will vote your shares “FOR” ratification of the selection of Ernst & Young LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2023.
During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, we hired Ernst & Young LLP to perform the annual audit and to provide audit-related and tax services. The Audit and Finance Committee Charter requires that the Audit and Finance Committee pre-approve all Ernst & Young LLP services. The Audit and Finance Committee also pre-approved all fees that we incurred for services that Ernst & Young LLP provided. The fees we incurred for services that Ernst & Young LLP provided during the past two years are listed in the following table.

FEES PAID TO ERNST & YOUNG LLP | 2022 |  | 2021
Audit fees | $ | 4,349,000 |  |  | $ | 4,366,900 |
Audit-related fees | $ | 191,000 |  |  | $ | 270,400 |
Tax fees | $ | 111,000 |  |  | $ | 261,700 |
All other fees | $ | — |  |  | $ | — |
| $ | 4,651,000 |  |  | $ | 4,899,000 |

Audit fees included fees for the audit of our consolidated financial statements and our internal control over financial reporting as required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. This category also includes fees for audits of subsidiaries of the Company and audits provided in connection with government filings or services that generally only the principal auditor can reasonably provide to a client, such as comfort letters, procedures related to debt financing, consents and reviews of documents that we file with the SEC. Audit-related services included audits of employee benefit plans and consultation on accounting and internal control matters. Tax services included tax advice, planning, compliance and transaction consulting.
To assure continuing external auditor independence, the Audit and Finance Committee and its Chair consider whether there should be a regular rotation of the independent external audit firm, review and evaluate the lead audit partner and their team and ensure the rotation of the lead audit partner and other audit personnel as required by applicable laws and regulations. The Audit and Finance Committee has procedures for pre-approving all audit and non-audit services that the independent registered public accounting firm provides. These procedures include reviewing and approving the services and a budget for audit and permitted non-audit services. The budget includes a description of, and a budgeted amount for, particular categories of non-audit services that are recurring in nature and that we anticipate at the time we prepare the budget. In addition, the Audit and Finance Committee has established a policy that the fees we pay for non-audit services must be less than the fees we pay for audit and audit-related services. Audit and Finance Committee approval is required to exceed the budget amount for a particular category of non-audit services and to engage the independent registered public accounting firm for any non-audit services not included in the budget. For both types of pre-approval, the Audit and Finance Committee considers whether the services are consistent with the SEC’s rules on auditor independence. The Audit and Finance Committee also considers whether the independent registered public accounting firm is best positioned to provide the most effective and efficient service. The Audit and Finance Committee may delegate pre-approval authority to one or more members of the Audit and Finance Committee. The Audit and Finance Committee monitors the services that our independent registered public accounting firm provides and the actual fees we paid to the independent registered public accounting firm to ensure that the services are within the parameters that the Audit and Finance Committee has approved.

BOARD MATTERS & CORPORATE GOVERNANCE |

In December 2022, the Human Resources Committee reviewed the Human Resources Committee Charter and recommended to the Board that no changes were necessary.
The Board has determined that all members of the Human Resources Committee are independent under New York Stock Exchange rules.
The Human Resources Committee has overall responsibility for approving total direct compensation (consisting of base salaries, short-term incentive compensation and long-term incentive compensation) for our executive officers. In addition, the Human Resources Committee reviews other aspects of compensation, such as deferred compensation plans, retirement plans and health and welfare plans.
The Human Resources Committee has the authority to engage the services of outside advisors, experts and others to assist it in performing its responsibilities. In 2021, the Human Resources Committee retained Pay Governance LLC to provide services and advice related to executive compensation. On an annual basis, the Human Resources Committee reviews and approves the scope of the independent consultant's services regarding executive compensation, the consultant's performance and the fees related to work the consultants performed for the Human Resources Committee. The Human Resources Committee retains the right to terminate Pay Governance’s services at any time. The independent consultant's primary responsibilities to the Human Resources Committee include:
•Providing independent competitive market data and advice related to our CEO’s compensation level and incentive design;
•Reviewing our compensation levels, performance goals and incentive designs for the NEOs; and
•Providing benchmark data on executive compensation.
The Human Resources Committee has considered all factors relevant to Pay Governance's independence from management and determined that Pay Governance is independent, and that Pay Governance's performance of services raises no conflict of interest. The Human Resources Committee’s conclusion was based in part on a report that Pay Governance provided to the Committee, which is intended to reveal any potential conflicts of interest.
In general, each December, the Human Resources Committee reviews executive compensation benchmarking data that the independent consultant prepares. The CEO then proposes total target compensation, consisting of a base salary, a target short-term incentive opportunity, and a target value of long-term incentive opportunity for NEOs (except with respect to their own compensation) based on benchmark data, as well as Company and individual performance. The CEO's recommendations are subject to review and approval by the Human Resources Committee, which makes the final determination.
The Human Resources Committee establishes goals and objectives with the CEO and evaluates at least annually the performance of the CEO in light of these goals and objectives. The Human Resources Committee reviews and approves the total compensation of the CEO on an annual basis, including base salary, with input from all of the independent Directors on the Board (who comprise the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee) on the performance of the CEO in meeting his goals and objectives and concerning the CEO’s total compensation.
The Human Resources Committee annually approves a Short-Term Incentive Plan (“STIP”) to motivate and reward the performance of employees of Harley-Davidson and its subsidiaries. The Human Resources Committee also reviews and approves target STIP opportunities for our executive leadership team, which is comprised of our CEO and executives who report directly to the CEO, including all NEOs. The Human Resources Committee approves grants of awards to the CEO and executives who report directly to the CEO, including all NEOs, and the CEO approves grants to other employees within parameters that the Human Resources Committee has approved. The Human Resources Committee has authorized the CEO to make equity grants to employees in certain other instances (except to executives who report directly to the CEO, including all NEOs), including to help recruit a new employee or retain a current employee or to reward an employee for exceptional service or such other instance that the CEO believes is in the Company’s best interest.

Number of Meetings in 2022: | 4 |

In December 2022, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee reviewed the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee Charter and recommended to the Board that no changes were necessary.
The Board has determined that all members of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee are independent under New York Stock Exchange rules.
The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee Charter outlines the criteria for identifying and recommending new candidates to serve on the Board. In considering any potential candidate for the Board, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee considers the following qualifications:
•Principal employment;
•Expertise relevant to the Company’s business;
•Whether the potential candidate will add diversity to the Board, including whether the potential candidate brings complementary skills and viewpoints;
•Time commitments, particularly the number of other boards on which the potential candidate may serve;
•Independence and absence of conflicts of interest under New York Stock Exchange rules and other laws, regulations and rules;
•Financial literacy and expertise; and
•Personal qualities, including strength of character, maturity of thought process and judgment, values and ability to work with collegiality.
The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee continuously assesses potential candidates for the Board. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee works with a third-party executive search, corporate culture and leadership consultant to identify potential candidates for consideration for the Board and used this firm to identify Mr. Masood as a candidate for the Board.
The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is responsible for establishing, reviewing and revising compensation we pay to our Directors. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, working with management and third-party

BOARD MATTERS & CORPORATE GOVERNANCE |

compensation consultants and reviewing benchmarked data from a comparator group of companies, determines Director compensation that it believes is competitive with these companies. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee periodically reviews and revises, when necessary, the Director Compensation Policy, generally with the aid of a compensation consultant.
The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee's Charter has long required the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee to consider diversity in its process of selecting Director nominees. Specifically, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee evaluates each candidate for Director on, among other things, the basis of the diversity that they would bring to the Board, including with respect to business and professional experiences, skills, ethnicity, race, gender and sexual orientation. We believe this policy has been effective in creating a Board comprised of diverse members and that the composition of the current Board reflects the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee’s consideration of diversity in its evaluation and nomination process.
The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will consider candidates that shareholders recommend. Shareholders may recommend candidates for the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee to consider by writing to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee in care of our Secretary, Harley-Davidson, Inc., 3700 West Juneau Avenue, P.O. Box 653, Milwaukee, Wisconsin 53201-0653. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee’s policy regarding Director candidates that shareholders recommend and the process for evaluating the nominees are as follows:
•If a shareholder has complied with procedures to recommend Director candidates that the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee has established, then the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will consider Director candidates that the shareholder has recommended for the Board.
•In making recommendations to the Board of one or more candidates to serve as a Director, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will examine each Director candidate on a case-by-case basis, regardless of who recommended the candidate. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee evaluates candidates in the same manner, whether a shareholder or the Board has recommended the candidate.
•In general, for each candidate that any person or group brings to the attention of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee for consideration for nomination as a Director, the Chair of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will first make a determination whether the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee should consider the candidate at that time based on factors the Chair deems relevant, including our current need for qualified candidates and the Chair’s view as to whether the candidate has sufficient qualifications for further consideration for nomination as a Director.
•If the Chair determines that the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee should consider the candidate, then the Chair will report that determination to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and communicate all relevant information to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee.
•Each Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee member is responsible for sending feedback on a candidate to the Chair. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee may take any additional steps it deems necessary to determine whether to recommend the candidate to the full Board.
To enable the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee to consider a shareholder recommendation in connection with the 2024 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, we must receive the recommendation on or before December 8, 2023.
Submitting a shareholder recommendation to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee does not ensure that shareholders will have an opportunity to vote on the shareholder’s candidate because the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee may determine not to recommend the candidate to the full Board or the full Board may determine not to recommend the candidate to shareholders. Any shareholder who wants to ensure that shareholders will have an opportunity to vote on the shareholder’s candidate has two options:
Our By-laws and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, allow for Director candidate nominations through proxy access. Under this proxy access process, a shareholder or group of up to 20 shareholders who have owned at least 3% of the Company’s outstanding common stock continuously for at least three years, may seek to include Director nominees in our proxy materials at our annual meeting. The maximum number of Director nominees that may be submitted pursuant to these provisions may not exceed 20% of the total number of Directors, rounded down to the nearest whole number (but not less than two) (the “Cap”), provided that the shareholders and nominees satisfy the requirements specified in the By-laws. The following individuals will count toward the Cap: (i) any existing Director if originally nominated and elected under the proxy access By-law within the last two years and whose reelection at the upcoming annual meeting is being recommended by the Board; (ii) any nominee who is subsequently withdrawn or that the Board itself decides to nominate for election at that annual meeting (e.g., pursuant to a settlement); and (iii) any nominee for whom the Company received one or more valid shareholder notices nominating such persons for election under the advance notice provision of the Company’s Restated Articles of Incorporation within the two preceding years.
We must receive notice of a shareholder’s Director nomination for the 2024 Annual Meeting of Shareholders pursuant to the proxy access By-law provision no sooner than November 8, 2023 and no later than December 8, 2023. If the notice is received

2023 PROX Y STA TEMENT • HARLEY-DAVIDSON, INC. |  | 21

| BOARD MATTERS & CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

outside of that time frame, then we are not required to include the nominees in our proxy materials for the 2024 Annual Meeting of Shareholders.
The other option is that a shareholder may nominate a Director candidate for the shareholders to vote on at the 2024 Annual Meeting of Shareholders by giving proper written notice to our Secretary in advance of the 2024 Annual Meeting of Shareholders. To give that proper notice, a shareholder must comply with the terms and time periods of our Restated Articles of Incorporation as supplemented by our By-laws. Our Restated Articles of Incorporation state that a shareholder must give written notice that complies with the Restated Articles of Incorporation and By-laws to our Secretary not less than 60 days before the date in 2024 corresponding to the date we released this Proxy Statement to our shareholders. Because we anticipate mailing the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials on April 6, 2023, we must receive notice of a nomination for a Director candidate for shareholders to consider at the 2024 Annual Meeting of Shareholders no later than February 6, 2024. Even if a shareholder delivers a timely notice and otherwise complies with the terms and time periods of our Restated Articles of Incorporation and By-laws, we will not be obligated to name the shareholder’s candidate in our proxy statement. Also, stockholders who intend to solicit proxies in support of Director nominees other than the Company’s nominees must comply with the additional requirements of SEC Rule 14a-19(b).

BRAND AND SUSTAINABILITY COMMITTEE
Members: Jochen Zeitz, Chair Sara L. Levinson Norman Thomas Linebarger |  |  | Brand and Sustainability Committee responsibilities identified in its Charter include: •monitor consumer, market, industry and macroeconomic trends, issues and concerns that could affect the Company’s brand relevance and its retail and go-to-market models, processes, resources, activities, strategies and other capabilities and make recommendations to the Board and management regarding how the Company should respond to such trends, issues and concerns; •monitor the social, political, environmental, public policy, legislative and regulatory trends, issues and concerns that could affect the Company’s brand and sustainability models, processes, resources, activities, strategies and other capabilities, and make recommendations to the Board and management regarding how the Company should respond to social and environmental trends, issues and concerns to more effectively achieve its brand and sustainability goals; •consider and advise management on high-leverage aspects of the Harley-Davidson brand and the Company’s retail and go-to-market strategies to rapidly improve its brand relevance, retail prowess and new customer creation in the near-term, while building strong leadership and Company capabilities in these areas for the long-term; •assist management in setting strategy, establishing goals and integrating brand, social and environmental shared value creation and inclusion into daily business activities across the Company consistent with sustainable growth; •review new technologies and other innovations that will permit the Company to achieve sustainable growth without growing our environmental impact; and •consider the impact that the Company’s sustainability policies, practices and strategies have on employees, customers, dealers, suppliers, the environment and the communities in which the Company operates and where its customers ride.
Number of Meetings in 2022: | 4 |

In 2011, the Board formed the Sustainability Committee, and in 2019, the Board renamed the Committee the Brand and Sustainability Committee and approved a revised charter for the Brand and Sustainability Committee.
In December 2022, the Brand and Sustainability Committee reviewed the Brand and Sustainability Committee Charter and recommended to the Board that no changes were necessary.
The Brand and Sustainability Committee plays an integral role in providing oversight, advice and assistance to the Board and to the Company’s management in developing, implementing and monitoring social and environmental policies, practices and strategies to foster sustainable growth of the Company on a global basis. We define sustainable growth as the ability to grow and operate our business by preserving and renewing the Company’s heritage through global opportunities for shared value creation and inclusion. Sustainable growth is driven through leadership and continually challenging the Company’s business model, strategies, processes, products, services and other capabilities to realize the substantial long-term value of the Company, our heritage, our environment and our people.
As part of providing oversight, advice and assistance to the Board in fostering sustainable growth, the Brand and Sustainability Committee assists the Board in ensuring that the Company grows without increasing our environmental impact, which is consistent with the Company’s current strategic plan, The Hardwire and our long-term sustainability objective.

BOARD MEETINGS, ATTENDANCE, EXECUTIVE SESSIONS AND ANNUAL MEETING ATTENDANCE
In 2022, there were eight meetings of the Board. All Director nominees attended at least 75% of the meetings of the Board and the committees on which they served during 2022. Our Board and Committee meetings are generally set two years in advance.
With the exception of one meeting, the Board met in executive sessions during all regularly scheduled quarterly meetings, without management present and plans to continue that practice going forward. Since 2020, Mr. Linebarger has been our Presiding Director and presided over the executive sessions.
Unless a Director has an unexpected conflict in their schedule, we expect all Directors to attend the Annual Meeting. During our 2022 Annual Meeting, all Directors attended a meeting of Independent Directors and were not able to attend the Annual Meeting.
LEADERSHIP STRUCTURE
Mr. Zeitz has been the Chairman of our Board and our President and Chief Executive Officer since 2020. Because the roles of the Chairman and the Chief Executive Officer are currently combined and our Chairman is not considered independent, we now have a Presiding Director, who is elected by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. Mr. Linebarger is currently serving as our Presiding Director. Our Corporate Governance Policy gives the Board the flexibility and authority to modify this leadership structure as and when appropriate to best address the Company’s current circumstances and to advance the best interests of all shareholders.
The Board believes the current structure whereby a single individual acts both as CEO and Chairman streamlines accountability for our performance and provides centralized management and direction for the Company, allowing for a single, clear focus for management to execute the Company's business strategies. The Board believes the following ensures an appropriate level of management oversight and independence: (i) the number of independent, experienced Directors that make up the Board; (ii) the roles in the oversight of risk management that Committees of the Board have, as discussed below; and (iii) the independent oversight and responsibilities of the Presiding Director.
The primary roles of the Presiding Director are to assist the Chairman in managing the governance of the Board and to serve as a liaison between the Chairman and other Directors. The Presiding Director will: (i) preside at all meetings of the Board at which the Chairman is not present, including all executive sessions of the non-management and/or independent Directors; (ii) have the authority to call meetings of the non-management and/or independent Directors; and (iii) serve as a contact for interested parties who wish to communicate with non-management Directors.
THE BOARD’S ROLE IN THE OVERSIGHT OF RISK
Our Board has been actively overseeing the Company’s continued critical work of executing its five-year strategic plan to drive profitable growth. The Board also continues to review and discuss the Company's work in the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, including protecting the health and safety of our employees, evaluating the ongoing impact of the pandemic on strategy, operations, supply chain, liquidity and financial matters and supporting the communities in which we operate.
Our Board assesses and considers the risks we face on an ongoing basis, including risks that are associated with our financial position, our competitive position and the impact of our operations on our cost structure. As an example, in 2022, a leading expert in cyber policy and cybersecurity presented to the Board of Directors on cybersecurity and data privacy matters. Furthermore, a cybersecurity and data privacy risk assessment was completed by a third-party in 2022, the results of which were reported to the Audit and Finance Committee and the Board of Directors. Our Board of Directors’ approach to risk management includes understanding the risks we face, analyzing them with the latest information available and determining the steps that should be taken to manage those risks.
While the Board has the ultimate responsibility for oversight of the risk management process, various Committees of the Board have a role in the oversight of risk management. In particular, the Audit and Finance Committee focuses on financial risk, including the oversight of the systems of internal control over financial reporting, and it receives an assessment of the Company’s systems to monitor and manage business risk from our independent registered public accounting firm. Internal audit regularly reviews risk management processes and internal controls with the Audit and Finance Committee. The Audit and Finance Committee also monitors cybersecurity risk and receives a report from the Chief Information Security and Privacy Officer at each regular Audit and Finance Committee meeting, as well as a report on legal and compliance matters. In addition, the Human Resources Committee reviews our compensation program for compensation risk as we describe further in the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” section of this Proxy Statement. Risk management is an integral part of our annual strategic planning process.

POLICIES AND PROCEDURES GOVERNING RELATED PERSON TRANSACTIONS
In December 2002, our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee adopted a written policy regarding transactions with related persons. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee amended this policy, which we refer to as our Conflict of Interest Process for Directors, Executive Officers, and other Employees, in December 2003.
Under the Policy, conflict of interest issues for the CEO or any Director are submitted to and reviewed by the Chair of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. If the Chair of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee determines that an actual conflict of interest issue exists, then the entire Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee reviews the potential conflict of interest. If our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee determines that an actual conflict exists, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee decides whether to waive the conflict or require the CEO or Director to remove the conflict. Any conflicts that are waived by our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee are promptly disclosed to our shareholders.
Any potential conflict that arises for any executive officer (other than our CEO and the Vice President and Chief Legal Officer) is reviewed by our Vice President and Chief Legal Officer. Any potential conflict that arises for our Vice President and Chief Legal Officer is reviewed by our CEO. When reviewing a potential conflict of interest, if the Vice President and Chief Legal Officer or CEO determines that a conflict of interest issue exists, the Chair of the Human Resources Committee reviews the issue. If the Chair of the Human Resources Committee agrees that a conflict of interest issue exists, then the entire Human Resources Committee reviews the issue. If the Human Resources Committee also agrees that a conflict exists, the Human Resources Committee decides whether to waive the conflict or require the executive officer to remove the conflict. Any conflicts that are waived by our Human Resources Committee are promptly disclosed to our shareholders.
Any conflict of interest issue involving any other employee is reviewed by an attorney in our Legal Department. If the attorney believes that an actual conflict of interest issue exists, then the attorney submits the conflict of interest issue to our Vice President and Chief Legal Officer. If our Vice President and Chief Legal Officer determines that an actual conflict exists, then they decide what steps should be taken to resolve the conflict.
CERTAIN TRANSACTIONS
During 2022, there were no transactions with Directors that would require disclosure under SEC rules. In determining whether Directors are independent, the Board considered Mr. Linebarger’s role at Cummins Inc. (“Cummins”) and Ms. Sylvester's role at Waste Management, Inc (“Waste Management”). Cummins and Waste Management are suppliers to the Company. Mr. Linebarger, a Director, is the Executive Chairman of Cummins. Ms. Sylvester, a Director, is a member of Waste Management’s Board of Directors. During 2022, we continued a modest commercial relationship with each of Cummins and Waste Management. Both commercial relationships existed before Mr. Linebarger and Ms. Sylvester joined the Board and, in Ms. Sylvester’s case, before she joined Waste Management’s Board of Directors. Transactions with each of Cummins and Waste Management were negotiated on an arm’s-length basis, were below $300,000 in the aggregate in each case and were below the applicable threshold under New York Stock Exchange rules.
Accordingly, these relationships do not prevent Mr. Linebarger or Ms. Sylvester from qualifying as an independent Director, and the Board considers Mr. Linebarger and Ms. Sylvester to be independent Directors. Mr. Golston, as the current Chair of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, considered the Cummins and Waste Management relationships under our Conflict of Interest Process, and he determined that no actual conflict of interest issue exists as a result of the relationship.

Historically, the Company operated with two segments: Motorcycles and Related Products and Financial Services. In the fourth quarter of 2022, the Company reorganized its business into the three segments by separating the Motorcycles and Related Products segment into the HDMC and LiveWire segments that we describe above. We determined the 2022 performance-based compensation goals prior to the change in segments, and therefore, we based certain financial goals on the former Motorcycles and Related Products segment which we refer to as the combined HDMC and LiveWire segments.
LETTER FROM THE HUMAN RESOURCES COMMITTEE
Dear Fellow Shareholder,
As in past years, this letter and the remainder of our Compensation Discussion & Analysis support the commitment of the Board and the Human Resources Committee to provide shareholders with a clear and comprehensive description of our executive compensation program, along with insight into how we govern compensation at Harley-Davidson.
As I shared last year, we implemented significant changes to our executive compensation program for 2021 to simplify our incentive plan designs, provide more direct alignment with shareholders and focus on the retention of key executives. For 2022, we generally maintained the same executive compensation program design as we believe these changes remain aligned to The Hardwire, the Company's five-year strategic plan, which is designed to enhance our position as the most desirable motorcycle brand in the world.
In 2022, based on input from H Partners, a large shareholder with Board and Human Resources Committee representation, we put in place a one-time Aspirational Incentive Plan for a select group of senior leaders. We presented this supplemental, entirely performance-based plan to shareholders at the 2022 Annual Meeting, and shareholders approved it with over 64% of the shares voted. While there is a significant accounting value of this Aspirational Incentive Plan that SEC rules require us to report as compensation to the NEOs for 2022, actual achievement of the plan (and thus vesting of the shares) is solely contingent upon achieving certain share price thresholds.
From a stock price of $41.20 per share on the date that we made grants under the Aspirational Incentive Plan, achieving the lowest share price threshold under the plan would require a maintained stock price of $70.00 per share - a near doubling of the stock price – and achieving the highest share price threshold would require a more than tripling of the stock price, to $130.00 per

share. This plan is 100% at-risk (no compensation will be earned if the targets are not met) and is designed to create strong alignment between management compensation and shareholder outcomes.
Our say-on-pay proposal is Proposal 2, and our Board recommends that you vote "FOR" this proposal. In support of this recommendation, we invite you to read the Compensation Discussion and Analysis that follows for further information on our compensation philosophy and decisions. We are confident that our program is clearly linked to performance and aligned with shareholder interests, while appropriately incentivizing our management team.
In closing, we thank those shareholders that took the time to engage with us during the year; your constructive feedback was helpful, and we look forward to maintaining ongoing dialogue. We have great confidence in the abilities of our Chairman, President and CEO as well as the entire executive leadership team to further enhance shareholder value.

2022 Aspirational Incentive Plan
By our 2022 Annual Meeting, the Committee had established the standard elements of our compensation program for 2022, consisting of base salary, short-term incentives and long-term incentives comprised of performance shares and restricted stock units. We refer to these performance shares as standard performance shares.
At our 2022 Annual Meeting, 64% of the shares voted approved the proposal to adopt the 2022 Aspirational Incentive Plan, or AIP. The AIP was initially recommended by H Partners, a large shareholder with Board and Human Resources Committee representation, with the goal of implementing an aspirational equity incentive plan to incentivize exceptional performance that is highly aligned with shareholder outcomes. As we indicated in our proxy statement a year ago, up to 1.5 million performance shares under the AIP were to be granted to Mr. Zeitz, and up to an aggregate 1.5 million performance shares under the AIP were to be granted to a select group of other executive leaders, including our NEOs. We finalized grants of performance shares under the AIP in August 2022, and we refer to these performance shares as Aspirational Performance Shares. Participants earn shares only to the extent that share price targets are met by December 31, 2025.
For participants to earn shares under the AIP, the Company's share price must increase from the grant date value of $41.20 to $70.00 at the lowest share price threshold – a near doubling of the stock price – and to $130.00 at the highest share price threshold, or a more than tripling of the stock price. To put this in further context:
•The AIP share price threshold range of $70.00 to $130.00 per share implies a market capitalization, based on current shares outstanding, of approximately $10 billion to $19 billion, which, at the high-end is near the all-time high market capitalization for the Company.
•If the share price thresholds under the AIP are not achieved, then management will earn no compensation under this Plan. The AIP is 100% at-risk and creates very strong alignment between management compensation and shareholder outcomes.
The compensation associated with the AIP that we disclose for NEOs in the Summary Compensation Table reflects the grant date fair value under accounting rules, but as of the record date for the Annual Meeting, none of the share price thresholds have been met, and therefore, no Aspirational Performance Shares have been earned.
Because the Committee had established the standard elements of our compensation program for 2022 before shareholders approved the AIP, the Aspirational Performance Shares represent incremental compensation for 2022 that shareholders approved as such. Accordingly, at times in this Compensation Discussion & Analysis, we distinguish between the 2022 compensation associated with the standard elements of compensation and the 2022 compensation associated with the Aspirational Performance Shares.
2022 Compensation Actions-Target
The following table shows the actions that the Committee took in 2022 for our NEOs relating to base salary, short-term incentives and long-term incentives, which represent the standard elements of our compensation program (and do not include the Aspirational Performance Shares).

2022 Compensation Actions-Actual
STIP: Similar to 2021, the Human Resources Committee approved Operating Income as the sole measure for the 2022 Short-Term Incentive Plan, or STIP. All employees eligible for STIP including the NEOs earned a reward equal to 114.1% of their target award as a percentage of base salary. See the "2022 Short-Term Incentive Awards" portion of the "2022 Performance Measures and Achievements" section for additional information.
LTI: Performance under the 2020-2022 performance share cycle was measured by performance relative to three-year goals for return on invested capital, cumulative HDI net income and a strategic milestone tied to net new rider growth. The actual payout was equal to 23.4% of target. None of the NEOs held these awards as they were new to their positions since grants were made.
The performance cycles for our 2021-2023 and 2022-2024 standard performance shares reward selected participants, including our NEOs other than Mr. Zeitz, based on the average achievement of stakeholder-based performance goals for each year during the three-year performance period. The average three-year result will then be modified up or down within a range of +/-15% by our three-year relative total shareholder return compared to that of five other publicly-traded companies in the consumer discretionary transportation space. Neither performance cycle has yet to be completed.
WIN Options: At end of 2022, our highest 10-day average stock price that we achieved since we granted WIN stock options to Mr. Zeitz in December 2021 was $47.44, which is over the first stock price hurdle of $45.00 under the options. Based on this, if Mr. Zeitz remains employed through December 31, 2023, he would earn 98,250 options with an exercise price of $36.63 and a 6-year exercise term. If Mr. Zeitz remains employed through December 31, 2024, he would earn 148,850 options with the same $36.63 exercise price but with a full 10-year term to exercise.
Underpinning our compensation program, there are a number of policies and practices we have adopted to ensure we meet the high governance standards that our shareholders expect and that we expect of ourselves.

WHAT WE DO | WHAT WE DON’T DO
•Typically target pay levels around the 50th percentile •Deliver the majority of target compensation based on performance •Align our performance measures and goals with our strategy •Use objective performance measures and goals, and clearly disclose them •Promote retention through vesting periods of between one and three years •Conduct an annual assessment of compensation risk •Apply payout caps under our incentive plans •Maintain a clawback policy •Maintain stock ownership guidelines •Conduct an annual “say-on-pay” vote •Review tally sheets annually •Review executive talent and succession plans •Engage an independent compensation consultant •Use a double-trigger vesting provision on all long-term incentive awards | X Provide tax gross-ups on any change in control benefits X Design plans that encourage excessive risk X Enter into employment contracts X Deliver guaranteed pay increases X Deliver guaranteed incentive awards X Hedging, pledging or short sales X Option repricing

Compensation Design
Executive Compensation Philosophy
We intend for pay-for-performance to be our compensation philosophy.
We established the 2022 incentive plans in February 2022 and aligned them to The Hardwire, our 2021-2025 strategic plan.
In February 2022, the Human Resources Committee approved the following performance measures for our 2022 incentive plans and awards:

PERFORMANCE MEASURE | WHY IT MATTERS
HDI Operating Income | Measures HDI profitability.
Combined HDMC and LiveWire Return on Invested Capital | Measures how effectively and efficiently we manage our combined HDMC and LiveWire capital investments.
Combined HDMC and LiveWire Revenue | Measures combined HDMC and LiveWire revenue from the sale of motorcycles and related products.
HDI Workforce Engagement | Measures the engagement of the workforce.
HDI Increased Diversity of Leadership Roles | Measures the number of women and underrepresented employees in leadership roles as a percentage of the total number of employees in those roles.

An Overview of our Executive Compensation Program
In 2022, the Harley-Davidson compensation program, as it relates to the NEOs, was comprised of four core elements: base salary, short-term incentives, long-term incentives (including for this purpose the Aspirational Performance Shares) and employee benefits.

Pay Mix
The majority of target compensation for our NEOs, including the CEO, is at-risk variable compensation, with a significant emphasis on equity-based compensation. Our approach reflects our compensation philosophy, pay-for-performance. The following graphs set out the value of our compensation elements (and for this purpose we include the Aspirational Performance Shares) for 2022 assuming performance at target.
Note: The Pay Mix reflects Mr. Zeitz's and other NEOs' base salary, target STIP, the target grant value of standard Long-term Incentives and the grant date value of the Aspirational Performance Shares.
Pay-for-Performance at Harley-Davidson
We have designed our compensation program such that compensation outcomes in years of strong performance should trend above target, while outcomes trend downward in years where performance is below expectations. There are a variety of factors that can impact this trend year-to-year, including, but not limited to, broad consumer and economic market factors, changes in global trade conditions, supply availability and labor costs.
Based on outcomes, our incentive plans are working as designed and intended. Over the last five years, the outcomes under the financial components of our incentive plans have been in line with performance:
•The financial component of the STIP paid out below target in two of the last five years; and
•The long-term incentive plan has paid out below target for the last five years.

COMPENSATION GOVERNANCE
Compensation Oversight
The Human Resources Committee, which Michael J. Cave chairs, consists of five independent Directors. During 2022, the Human Resources Committee met five times. The Human Resources Committee has overall responsibility for approving the total direct compensation of our executive leadership team, which includes the CEO and all other NEOs. In addition, the Human Resources Committee reviews other aspects of compensation, such as our deferred compensation plans, retirement plans and health and welfare plans. The Human Resources Committee is also involved in assessing the results of an annual talent assessment and reviews succession plans for leadership roles.
The Human Resources Committee receives information and support from an independent consultant, as well as management, both of which impact the ultimate determination of the Human Resources Committee.

Shareholders can find additional information about the Human Resources Committee in the Board Matters & Corporate Governance section starting on page 17.

Use of an Independent Consultant
The Human Resources Committee has the sole authority to engage the services of outside advisors, experts and others to assist in performing its duties. Each year, the Human Resources Committee reviews and approves the scope and associated consulting fees and evaluates the consultant’s subsequent performance. In 2022 the Human Resources Committee retained Pay Governance LLC to provide services and advice related to executive compensation. As its primary areas of support, Pay Governance provides the following:
•Market data and advice related to our CEO’s compensation level and incentive design;
•Market data and an associated review of our compensation levels, performance goals and incentive designs for other executives;
•Annual executive compensation plan design;
•Long-term incentive plan design;
•Change-in-control protection review; and
•General market and regulatory updates.
In accordance with SEC and NYSE requirements, the Human Resources Committee reviewed Pay Governance's independence during the year and confirmed that Pay Governance is independent and that no conflict of interest is present.

The Annual Process
The Human Resources Committee approves an annual calendar each year, which outlines the items that it will address at each meeting. Across its typical five meetings, the Human Resources Committee primarily reviews and approves items related to the CEO as well as broader executive officer compensation, including matters outlined in our stock plans. More broadly, the Human Resources Committee annually approves various incentive plans that apply across Harley-Davidson, which aligns our employees' goals with the strategic plan, while also providing an opportunity for individual performance recognition. The Human Resources Committee also reviews succession plans for the leadership team and an annual talent assessment.
In the sections that follow, we provide additional details on some of the most important aspects of the Human Resources Committee’s work in 2022.
Shareholder Engagement
Harley-Davidson takes shareholder input and feedback seriously, and our senior management and Investor Relations staff regularly interact with our shareholders. The Human Resources Committee Chair, Chief Financial Officer, Chief Human Resources Officer and Investor Relations staff engaged with shareholders prior to our 2022 Annual Meeting of Shareholders. We targeted our largest shareholders representing approximately 69% of outstanding shares. We held telephonic meetings with shareholders who accepted our invitation to engage, which represented more than 53% of outstanding shares. We focused our discussion on executive compensation as well as environmental, social and governance issues.

2023 PROX Y STA TEMENT • HARLEY-DAVIDSON, INC. |  | 35

| EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

In general, shareholders were highly supportive of our Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, along with the rest of the Executive Leadership Team. Shareholders supported The Hardwire and the progress to date. They did have feedback about the compensation arrangement for our CEO. This drove the majority of the shareholders to vote no on our say-on-pay proposal for our CEO, which resulted in a 37% level of support based on shares voted.
Shareholders supported the Aspirational Incentive Plan that we presented for a vote at the 2022 Annual Meeting. 64% of the shares vote supported the AIP. With that shareholder support, the Human Resources Committee proceeded to implement the plan on August 19, 2022 in a manner that was consistent with disclosure regarding the AIP in our proxy statement for the 2022 annual meeting.
Compensation Peer Group
On an annual basis, the Human Resources Committee undertakes a review of the compensation peers that we use to provide insight into market competitive pay levels and practices.
The Human Resources Committee utilizes a peer group comprised of companies that meet industry and financial criteria, including: (1) status as publicly-traded North American companies on a major exchange; (2) industrial manufacturers and consumer brands; (3) comparability in size and scope, generally based on revenue, total market capitalization and capital intensity; and (4) geographic revenue mix and status as proxy advisor peers, and reflect a balanced mix of H-D’s key business attributes:
•Consumer brand;
•Lifestyle brand;
•Iconic / premium brand;
•Capital intensive product offerings;
•Large scale industrial manufacturing capabilities;
•Dealer network; and
•Geographically diverse / global.
We evaluate the appropriateness of the group annually (based on merger and acquisition activity, growth, asset class focus, etc.) and make adjustments accordingly. Based on this review, the Human Resources Committee approved the following compensation peer group for use in 2022:

Brown-Forman Corporation | Molson Coors Beverage Company | RH | The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company
BRP Inc. | Peloton Interactive, Inc. | Tapestry, Inc. | The Toro Company
Brunswick Corporation | Polaris Inc. | Tempur Sealy International, Inc. | Thor Industries, Inc.
MillerKnoll, Inc. | PVH Corp. | Textron Inc. | Winnebago Industries, Inc.

Managing Compensation-Related Risks
We design our compensation program with the understanding that while some degree of risk is necessary and appropriate, we believe our compensation program should not encourage excessive or inappropriate risk. The Human Resources Committee regularly monitors and evaluates our compensation policies and practices to ensure they align with good governance practices.
The Human Resources Committee annually undertakes a compensation risk assessment to establish whether our compensation program is successfully achieving these objectives, while aligning pay with performance. The 2022 review concluded that our compensation program, particularly our cash incentive plans and long-term incentives, appropriately balance risk, pay-for-performance, and the desire to focus executives on specific financial and operational measures. The Human Resources Committee believes our program does not encourage unnecessary or excessive risk-taking, nor does it create risks that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company.
We have adopted the following policies and agreements to further underpin our executive compensation program with robust governance practices. The Human Resources Committee believes these are appropriate and reflect the expectations of our shareholders while providing for clear alignment between the interests of executives and those of our shareholders.
Clawbacks
The Human Resources Committee believes it makes good business sense to reserve the right to claw back, or recoup, previously paid compensation or adjust credited compensation in certain circumstances. The clawback applies in the event that the Board or an appropriate Board Committee determines that an executive officer engaged in any fraud or intentional misconduct that was a contributing factor to Harley-Davidson having to restate any financial statements filed with the SEC due to the Company’s material noncompliance with any financial reporting requirement under the securities laws. If that occurs, then the

36 |  | HARLEY-DAVIDSON, INC. • 2023 PROXY STATEMENT

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION |

Board or the Human Resources Committee may, at its discretion and to the extent permitted by governing law, require the Company to seek reimbursement or forfeiture of any eligible compensation paid or credited to, or earned by, such executive officer.
Compensation subject to forfeiture will be any bonuses paid, or credited to, or any other incentive compensation earned by, an executive officer in excess of the amounts that would have been paid or credited to, or earned by, such executive officer during the three-year period preceding the date on which the Company is required to prepare the restatement based directly on the restated financial results.
In October 2022, the SEC adopted Exchange Act Rule 10D-1, which requires listing exchanges to adopt listing standards that require listed issuers to adopt clawback policies and comply with disclosure requirements. As a result, in 2023, the Company and Human Resources Committee will review the current clawback policy and amend the policy, as appropriate, to comply with these new requirements.
Stock Ownership Guidelines
To reinforce the link between the long-term interests of our executives and all stakeholders, including our shareholders, we require Directors and executives to own a minimum amount of our common stock. In 2021, the Human Resources Committee approved changes to our stock ownership guidelines based on recommendations from Pay Governance to more closely align with market practice and our organizational structure. Our guidelines were unchanged for 2022 and are structured as follows:

TITLE | BASE SALARY GUIDELINE |
CEO | 6X | In assessing the level of achievement, the Human Resources Committee takes into account personal holdings, (whether held directly or indirectly through the 401(k) plan, trusts, majority-owned entities or family members) and vested or unvested restricted stock units. Unearned performance shares and vested stock options do not count for purposes of compliance with stock ownership guidelines.
Senior Executive Leaders (including NEOs) | 3X
Other Executives | 1X

The Human Resources Committee annually reviews progress and compliance with the stock ownership guidelines, with a failure to meet or show sustained progress towards achievement resulting in the potential reduction in or restriction of future stock awards. In addition to the new guidelines, the Human Resources Committee recommended and the Board approved a five-year phase in period, to allow time for our executives and Directors to come into compliance with the new guidelines. As of December 31, 2022, Mr. Zeitz had met the ownership level required by the guidelines and all of our other NEOs had additional time to meet the ownership level required by the guidelines.
Option Repricing
Under our stock plan, the repricing or exchange of underwater stock options is prohibited.
Maximum Caps and Ability to Reduce Awards
Our annual cash incentive plans provide that the Human Resources Committee may reduce awards that executives would otherwise earn by up to 50%, and there is a 200% cap on all cash payouts. Under our long-term incentive plan, the maximum payout for standard performance shares is 200% of the initial number of shares granted, although the value of awards remains subject to upward and downward movement in our share price.
Anti-Hedging and Pledging Policy
Given certain forms of hedging and pledging protect the individual from the full risks associated with share ownership, Directors, officers and employees are prohibited from any hedging or pledging transactions with respect to Company securities. Without limitation, the prohibition on hedging includes any financial instruments or other transactions that hedge or offset, or are designed to hedge or offset, any position relating to Company securities (including compensation awards), including prepaid variable forward contracts, equity swaps, collars, puts, calls and other derivative instruments and exchange funds.
This maximizes the alignment of interests with our stakeholders and minimizes the risk of executives making decisions that are not in the sustainable long-term interests of Harley-Davidson.

2022 COMPENSATION DECISIONS AND OUTCOMES
Base Salary
The Human Resources Committee undertakes an annual review of NEO salaries to determine whether to adjust salaries. In making this determination, the Human Resources Committee generally considers a broad range of factors when setting salary, including market levels in our compensation peer group around median, internal equity among similarly situated executives within Harley-Davidson, individual performance, experience, job scope, impact, accomplishments, general business performance and economic conditions. The base salaries in effect for our NEOs during 2022 are stated in the table below.

NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICER | 2022 BASE SALARY | CHANGE FROM 2021
Jochen Zeitz | $ | 1,900,000 |  | (24) | %
Gina Goetter | $ | 550,000 |  | 16 | %
Edel O'Sullivan | $ | 475,000 |  | 0 | %
Jagdish Krishnan | $ | 475,000 |  | 0 | %
Paul Krause | $ | 450,000 |  | 13 | %

2022 Short-Term Incentive Plan (STIP)
The short-term incentive plan the Human Resources Committee approved in February 2022 continued to utilize corporate operating income as the sole performance measure. The Human Resources Committee believes the short-term incentive plan design aligns the incentives of participants with the overall performance of the Company.
In February 2022, as part of the annual target setting process, the Human Resources Committee reviewed and approved the amount of compensation that we would pay to each NEO under the short-term incentive plan, expressed as a percentage of their base salary, if the actual Company performance resulted in a payout at target for 2022. The target bonus opportunities are set forth below.
The design of the short-term incentive plan was such that, if we did not achieve the minimum level of performance, then there would be no payout. If we achieved the minimum level of performance, the threshold payout was 50% of the target opportunity; performance at or above the upper end of performance goal would result in a payout of 200% of the target opportunity. If Harley-Davidson did not achieve a minimum (threshold) level of operating income of $718 million, there would be no payout.

NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICER | 2022 Target Bonus Opportunity (% of Base Salary)
Jochen Zeitz | 126%
Gina Goetter | 85%
Edel O'Sullivan | 90%
Jagdish Krishnan | 70%
Paul Krause | 65%

The design of the short-term incentive plan was such that, if we did not achieve the minimum level of performance, then there would be no payout. If we achieved the minimum level of performance, the threshold payout was 50% of the target opportunity; performance at or above the upper end of performance goals would result in a payout of 200% of the target opportunity.
2022 Performance Measures and Achievements
2022 Short-Term Incentive Awards
In 2022, operating income was $909 million, which would have resulted in a payout equal to 106.8% of the target opportunity. However, based on the unplanned incremental accounting cost of $13 million for the Aspirational Performance Shares, the Human Resources Committee used its discretion to adjust this incremental cost out of the operating income calculation for the purpose of evaluating achievement of the STIP. Many employees who are in the STIP plan did not participate in the AIP, and thus, the Committee concluded that this adjustment was warranted. With this adjustment, all STIP participants received a payout of 114.1% of their target opportunity. For each NEO, we reflect their STIP payout in the summary compensation table under non-equity incentive plan compensation.

PERFORMANCE MEASURE (WEIGHT) | THRESHOLD | TARGET | MAXIMUM | ACTUAL | ADJUSTED | PAYOUT
Operating Income (100%) ($ in millions) | $ | 717 |  | $ | 897 |  | $ | 1,076 |  | $ | 909 |  | $ | 922 |  | 114.1 | %

2022 Long-Term Incentive Awards
Equity-based awards provide a direct alignment of interests with our shareholders, given the exposure to upward and downward movement in Harley-Davidson’s share price over the long-term. For our executive officers, we generally make long-term incentive awards in the form of two types of equity-based awards that enable the Human Resources Committee to achieve a combination of objectives:
•Performance shares enable the Committee to incentivize and reward performance in areas critical to our success; and
•Restricted stock units help us retain our senior executives, whose experience is critical to the successful execution of our plans and strategies.
For each NEO, other than Mr. Zeitz, the Human Resources Committee determined a target value of long-term incentive opportunity, which we express as a percentage of base salary. Based on performance and market data, the Human Resources Committee approved an increase in Mr. Krause's LTI target from 100% to 120% of base salary.
We converted the target value of long-term incentive opportunity for each NEO (other than Mr. Zeitz) into an award of standard performance shares and an award of restricted stock units. For this conversion, we valued each standard performance share and each restricted stock unit at an amount equal to the closing price of a share of our stock on the date of grant.

NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICER | TARGET AWARD VALUE (% OF BASE SALARY) | LONG-TERM INCENTIVE MIX
PERFORMANCE SHARES (60% OF TOTAL TARGET VALUE) | RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS (40% OF TOTAL TARGET VALUE)
Gina Goetter | 140 | % | $ | 462,000 |  | $ | 308,000 |
Edel O'Sullivan | 120 | % | $ | 342,000 |  | $ | 228,000 |
Jagdish Krishnan | 140 | % | $ | 399,000 |  | $ | 266,000 |
Paul Krause | 120 | % | $ | 324,000 |  | $ | 216,000 |

The Human Resources Committee decided to maintain the same mix of standard performance shares (60%) and restricted stock units (40%) in 2022 that it had used in 2021. The Human Resources Committee believes that the 60/40 mix of standard performance shares and restricted stock units provides the appropriate balance of retention and performance. We believe the mix is balanced to incentivize the team to deliver. Because turnover is common during times of significant change and transformation, we believe providing 40% of our target value for long-term incentives in the form of RSUs helps us incentivize and retain top talent.
As part of the compensation terms that the Human Resources Committee established pursuant to a letter agreement with Mr. Zeitz entered into on December 1, 2021, he received RSUs valued at $6,000,000 in 2022.
2022 Standard Performance Share Awards
Performance Shares allow the executive to earn a specified number of shares of our common stock at the end of the three-year performance period (2022 through 2024) that will range between 0% and 200% of the initial shares awarded. As a result, the number of standard performance shares an NEO earns is based on Company performance and the value that the NEO realizes is tied to the stock price when the shares vest at the end of the performance period. To the extent awards vest, the participant will also receive the accumulated dividends that have accrued over the performance period, in direct proportion to the number of standard performance shares that actually vest.
We believe Harley-Davidson must deliver for all our stakeholders, including our shareholders, our customers, our employees and our communities. As a result, for the 2022-2024 performance period, the Human Resources Committee approved standard performance shares that will reward selected participants, including our NEOs other than Mr. Zeitz, based on the average achievement of stakeholder-based performance goals for each year during the three-year performance period. The average will then be modified up or down within a range of +/-15% by our three-year relative total shareholder return compared to that of five other publicly traded companies in the consumer discretionary transportation space.

The Human Resources Committee approved the measures for year one of the 2022-2024 standard performance shares in February 2022. The following tables show the year one, or 2022, measures and weightings as well as the 2022 threshold, target and maximum performance ranges.

PERFORMANCE MEASURE | WEIGHTING | DEFINITION
Combined HDMC and LiveWire ROIC | 25% | The quotient obtained by dividing (i) combined HDMC and LiveWire operating income after tax by (ii) combined HDMC and LiveWire Invested Capital in the year. Invested Capital: the average amount of combined HDMC and LiveWire debt plus the average amount of combined HDMC and LiveWire shareholder’s equity, excluding accumulated other comprehensive income or loss for pension and postretirement benefit plans, net of tax.
Combined HDMC and LiveWire Revenue | 25% | Total revenue from HDMC and LiveWire combined.
Employee Engagement | 25% | The measure is simply the percentage of employees who were engaged based on the results of our annual survey results.
Workforce Representation | 25% | The total number of women and underrepresented employees in manager or above roles across the globe as a percent of the total number of employees in those roles.

2022 PERFORMANCE MEASURE | THRESHOLD | TARGET | MAXIMUM
Combined HDMC and LiveWire ROIC | 13.8 | % | 18.5 | % | 23.1 | %
Combined HDMC and LiveWire Revenue | $3.7 B | $4.9 B | $6.1B

Workforce Representation | 39.0 | % | 40.0 | % | 42.0 | %

2022 Restricted Stock Unit Awards
Restricted stock unit awards allow the executive to earn a specified number of shares of our common stock at the end of a restricted period. Awards vest in three equal installments on the first, second and third anniversaries of the grant date subject to continued employment. At the time of vesting, the executive will receive dividends that were declared quarterly related to unvested shares. The Human Resources Committee believes that restricted stock unit awards complement our use of standard performance shares by providing an effective and valuable tool to attract and retain executives.
Under the general vesting rules, a recipient who has reached the age of 55, is eligible for retirement and, upon retirement from the Company, will have all awards that were granted 12 or more months prior to the date of retirement vest upon retirement.
The awards for Mr. Zeitz fully vest on the first anniversary of the grant date. In 2023, based on shareholder feedback, Mr. Zeitz's award will vest ratably over 3 years.
Aspirational Performance Shares
Having received formal shareholder approval of the AIP at the 2022 annual meeting, the Human Resources Committee approved implementation of the Aspirational Performance Shares at its May 12th meeting. The Committee delegated approval of the details of implementation, such as participants to be included and grant amounts, to Committee Chair Cave. On August 19, 2022, Committee Chair Cave approved a grant of Aspirational Performance Shares to a select group of executive leaders, including our NEOs. Participants earn shares of stock only to the extent we achieve share price thresholds that we list in the table below by December 31, 2025. The share price thresholds are materially higher than both the current stock price and, we believe, current investor expectations for the period through that date. If a share price threshold is met, then 50% of the associated performance shares vest immediately upon the Human Resources Committee's determination that the share price threshold has been achieved, and the remaining 50% will be deemed vested on the one-year anniversary of the date on which the share price threshold was achieved, subject to certain conditions. The plan is entirely performance-based; participants receive zero payment if none of the share price thresholds are met. The compensation associated with the AIP that we disclose for NEOs in the Summary Compensation Table reflects the grant date fair value under accounting rules. NEOs will earn this compensation only to the extent one or more share price thresholds are achieved; as of the record date for the Annual Meeting, none of the share price thresholds have been met, and therefore, no Aspirational Performance Shares have been earned.
The following table summarizes the share price thresholds as approved by the shareholders at the 2022 Annual Meeting and the allocated number of shares for each NEO for each share price threshold.

Payout of the 2020 Performance Share Awards
In 2020, the Human Resources Committee approved grants of performance shares which, subject to performance during 2020, 2021 and 2022, were eligible for vesting in a range between 0% and 200% of the initial award amount.
Performance was assessed against three performance measures, tied to our areas of long-term strategic focus.
The actual payout for the 2020-2022 performance shares for which we measured performance relative to three-year goals for return on invested capital, cumulative HDI net income and a strategic milestone tied to net new rider growth was equal to 23.4% of target. None of our NEOs held these awards as they were not in role when they were granted.

PERFORMANCE MEASURE (WEIGHT) | THRESHOLD | TARGET | MAXIMUM | ACTUAL | PAYOUT
Cumulative HDI Net Income (40%) ($ in millions) | $ | 1,340.2 |  | $1,635.9 - $1,786.9 | $ | 1,831.6 |  | $ | 1,390.0 |  | 23.4 | %
Average Combined HDMC and LiveWire Return on Invested Capital (45%) | 14.8 | % | 17.5% - 19.7% | 20.2 | % | 9.6 | % | 0%.
Strategic Milestone: U.S. Net New Rider Growth (15%) | 203,000 | 270,000 | 284,000 | 44,235 | — | %
Weighted Final Result |  |  |  |  | 23.40 | %

WIN Stock Options Vested in 2022
At the end of 2022, the highest 10-day average stock price was $47.44, which is over the first stock price hurdle of $45.00, for the WIN stock options that we granted to Mr. Zeitz in December 2021. Based on this, if Mr. Zeitz remains employed through December 31, 2023, he would earn 98,250 options with an exercise price of $36.63 and a 6-year exercise term. If Mr. Zeitz remains employed through December 31, 2024, he would earn 148,850 options with the same $36.63 exercise price but with a full 10-year term to exercise.
Other Elements of Compensation
The final elements of our executive compensation program are the benefits and limited executive perquisites that we provide. We generally offer benefits in a form and manner similar to our other salaried employees, with a goal across the Company of being competitive in the markets in which we compete for talent.

Retirement and Savings Plans
There are several retirement and savings plans the Company offers to eligible employees. Any eligible employee participates on the same terms as the executive officers.

PLAN | OVERVIEW
Active Plans |
HD Retirement Savings Plan for Salaried Employees | Qualified section 401(k) savings plans for eligible employees, which we believe are competitive with plans of other similar companies. All NEOs participate in this plan.
HDI Deferred Compensation Plan | A non-qualified Deferred Compensation Plan for salaried employees in which a group of highly compensated employees (as defined by the Internal Revenue Code) is eligible to participate, including the NEOs. Under our non-qualified Deferred Compensation Plan, we pay participants amounts that would have been accrued or payable under the Retirement Savings Plan if statutory limits that apply to that plan as a qualified plan under the Internal Revenue Code had not been applicable. Under the terms of this plan, participants can defer a portion of their base salary and a portion of their annual STIP payment. If a participant in this plan makes an election to defer eligible compensation, and there are statutory limits on such participant’s ability to defer at least 6% of eligible compensation into the qualified employee Retirement Savings Plan, then the participant will also receive company matching contributions in this plan that would have been made in the qualified plan if no statutory limit had been applicable. We believe earnings on amounts deferred reflect the returns available in the market because investment options in the Deferred Compensation Plan that are participant-directed are similar to those that exist in our 401(k) plan. This plan is structured to comply with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code. All NEOs are eligible to participate in this plan.

Perquisites
In addition to the benefits detailed above, the NEOs received a limited number of perquisites in 2022. We provide limited perquisites to ensure we remain market competitive.

PLAN | OVERVIEW
Use of Corporate Aircraft | The Human Resources Committee approved Mr. Zeitz's use of the corporate aircraft to occasionally commute between Wisconsin and New Mexico.
Executive Spousal or Partner Travel | We provide for spousal/partner travel for certain customer and dealer-facing events that executives (including NEOs) are required to attend. We deem this long-standing practice appropriate because many of our dealers are family-owned and operated and we derive substantial value from personal relationships with our dealer partners.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Tax and Accounting Considerations
Section162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code limits the tax deductibility of compensation that we pay to certain covered employees, generally including our NEOs, to $1,000,000 in any year. The Human Resources Committee believes that shareholders’ interests are best served by not restricting its discretion and flexibility in structuring compensation, even though doing that may result in certain non-deductible compensation expenses. Because many different factors influence a well-rounded, comprehensive executive compensation program, some of the compensation we provide to our executive officers is likely not to be fully deductible for tax purposes due to Section 162(m).
Equity Award and Grant Practices
We make awards of equity to certain employees, including our NEOs and Directors, under an established process that the Committee has approved using shareholder-approved stock plans.
Annual equity awards to employees historically have taken place in February after the release of fourth-quarter earnings, at which time the “window” for effecting transactions in our stock is generally open for those employees who may, through their job responsibilities, have access to material non-public information.
Off-cycle equity award grants may only be effective on dates during an open window period and occur after the CEO or Human Resources Committee determines that an individual is deserving of an award because: (i) an eligible employee is a recent hire; (ii) an employee has excelled in his/her role; (iii) an eligible employee is promoted to a new position (which is stock eligible); (iv) an eligible employee is highly valued and management wants to retain the individual; or (v) an eligible employee was inadvertently omitted from the annual award list. Using authority that the Human Resources Committee delegated to him in May

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION |

2022, Committee Chairman Cave, following Mr. Zeitz's recommendation as to all participants except himself, finalized granting the Aspirational Performance Shares on August 19, 2022. Although this grant date was not during an open window, once the details were finalized, Chairman Cave approved the grants as soon as possible to begin leadership alignment around the aspirational targets. Further, due to the nature of the grants, the stock price on the day we granted these awards was largely irrelevant.
Tally Sheets
The Human Resources Committee reviews tally sheets every year that are comprehensive and show the full range of compensation under a variety of employment scenarios. The Human Resources Committee believes the annual review of tally sheets is helpful and considers them as part of its deliberations regarding executive pay every year.
Employment Contracts
We do not enter into employment contracts with executives that provide for ongoing terms of employment.
Transition Agreements and Change of Control
On December 31, 2022, we had Transition Agreements with Messrs. Zeitz, Krause and Krishnan and Mses. Goetter and O'Sullivan, which become effective upon a change of control of Harley-Davidson, Inc. as defined in their Transition Agreements.
In the agreements with these NEOs, to the extent that payments to these executives under these agreements would be considered “excess parachute payments” as defined in Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code, the payments will be reduced to a point at which they are no longer considered excess parachute payments or the executive will receive the full payment and be personally liable for the excise tax, whichever produces the larger after-tax benefit to the executive.
The Transition Agreements do not provide for the payment of an excise tax gross-up or any benefits in the event the executive voluntarily terminates their employment for any reason after a change of control. There is no immediate vesting of equity awards upon a change of control for NEOs who are parties to Transition Agreements.
We believe the circumstances that entitle an individual to payments upon termination of employment following a change of control strike the appropriate balance between protecting the interests of our shareholders and our executives. The table in the “Payments Made Upon Termination-Change of Control” section provides estimates of the amounts of compensation payable to each eligible NEO, if any, upon a change of control and termination of the executive. The assumptions we used to calculate those amounts accompany the Change of Control table.
Executive Severance
All NEOs are covered under our Executive Severance Policy that provides for a cash severance benefit of 24 months of base salary and 18 months continuation of certain employee benefits, such as life insurance, medical, dental, vision, as well as outplacement benefits, if we terminate employment for reasons other than for cause. To receive a severance payment under this policy, the executive must agree to certain restrictive covenants and execute a general release of claims against the Company.

(1)We calculated the compensation related to stock (restricted stock units, standard performance shares and Aspirational Performance Shares) based on the grant date fair value of an award as determined pursuant to Accounting Standards Codification Topic 718 ("ASC 718"). We based the grant date fair value of restricted stock unit awards on the market price of the underlying stock as of the date of grant (which considers the value of dividend equivalents that the holder is entitled to receive). The grant date fair values of the standard performance shares and Aspirational Performance Share awards were determined using a Monte Carlo simulation on the date of grant pursuant to ASC 718. Refer to Note 17 of our financial statements included in our 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K for details regarding assumptions we used to value the standard performance share and Aspirational Performance Share awards. The annual performance goals for each fiscal year of the performance period for the standard performance share awards are established and communicated to the NEO at the beginning of each fiscal year. The value of the standard performance shares granted to the NEOs included in the table above for 2022 represents the grant date fair value of one-third of the total 2022 standard performance share awards and one-third of the total 2021 standard performance share awards. Under ASC 718 shares are not considered granted until the grantor and grantee reach a mutual understanding of the key terms and conditions of the award. Therefore, under ASC 718, the total award is considered granted in three equal amounts on the dates the annual performance goals for each fiscal year are communicated. The value included in the summary compensation table is based on achieving the performance objectives at target. The maximum performance share award value for 2022 grants of standard performance share awards, based on the grant date fair value per performance share, is 200% of the target amount, which equates to the following amounts based on our stock price on the date of grant: Ms. Goetter - $699,350, Ms. O'Sullivan - $462,903, Mr. Krishnan - $654,106 and Mr. Krause - $453,921. These values include the second tranche of the 2021 award and the first tranche of the 2022 award. For Mr. Zeitz $32 million of the $38 million stock award value is the accounting value ascribed to implementation of the Aspirational Performance Share awards. Actual achievement of the plan requires attaining certain share price thresholds, as previously described, and to date, none of these share price thresholds have been achieved. If the share price thresholds are not met by December 31, 2025, then no compensation is earned under the Aspirational Performance Share awards.
(2)The amount in this column for 2022 includes the amounts each NEO earned under their STIP award for 2022 which we paid during 2023. For each year in this table, this column shows compensation for the year in which it was earned, even if we paid the amount during the following year.
(3)All other compensation in 2022 consisted of the following:

|  | 401(K) PLAN CONTRIBUTION | DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN CONTRIBUTION | HEALTHCARE ACCOUNT CONTRIBUTION | AIRCRAFT USAGE(i) |  |  | TOTAL
Jochen Zeitz |  | $ | 25,325 |  | $ | 149,975 |  | $ | — |  | $ | 103,629 |  |  |  | $ | 278,929 |

Paul Krause |  | $ | 25,325 |  | $ | 10,700 |  | $ | — |  | $ | — |  |  |  | $ | 36,025 |

(i)Compensation for executive aircraft usage is based on the incremental cost to the Company. Incremental cost is calculated based on an annual average cost per flight hour which includes costs for fuel, landing/hanger fees, crew travel costs, catering and other variable flight expenses. This annual average cost per flight hour is then multiplied by the hours flown in connection with executive aircraft usage, including any flight hours necessary to reposition the aircraft. Since we use our aircraft primarily for business travel, we do not include costs that the Company would have incurred regardless of executive aircraft usage, such as depreciation, pilot salaries and maintenance costs.

(1)In February 2022, the Human Resources Committee formally approved the STIP relating to 2022 performance. Under this plan, each eligible NEO had the potential to earn the estimated future payouts that we disclose above during 2022. We include further details regarding this plan, including information on performance criteria, in the “2022 Short-Term Incentive Plan” section of the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis”.
(2)Aspirational Performance Shares allow NEOs to earn shares of our common stock if the specified aspirational share price thresholds are achieved by December 31, 2025. If a share price threshold is met, then 50% of the associated performance shares will be deemed vested immediately upon the Human Resources Committee's determination that the share price threshold has been achieved and the remaining 50% will be deemed vested on the one-year anniversary of the date on which the share price threshold was achieved, subject to certain conditions. We discuss the share price thresholds under “2022 Long-Term Incentive Awards” in the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis.” To the extent that these awards vest, the participant will receive the accumulated dividends that have accrued over the performance period in direct proportion to the number of performance shares that actually vest.
Standard performance shares shown as granted in 2022 include one-third of the performance share award approved in 2021 and one-third of the performance share award approved in 2022. Under ASC 718, shares are not considered granted until the grantor and grantee reach a mutual understanding of the key terms and conditions of the award. Therefore, the total standard performance share award for each year is considered granted in three equal amounts on the dates the annual performance goals for each fiscal year are communicated. The standard performance shares allow NEOs to earn a specified number of shares of our common stock at the end of a three-year performance period that will range between 0% and 200% of the target level award amount. The number of shares of our stock that the NEO will earn under each award will be based on the Company's average achievement of internal performance goals for each fiscal year during the award's three-year performance period modified by the Company's relative total shareholder return performance compared to a predetermined peer group, measured over the same three-year performance period. The annual performance goals for each fiscal year are established and communicated to the NEO at the beginning of each fiscal year.

“Compensation Discussion and Analysis.” Earned shares will vest only if the individual remains an employee through the vesting date or certain other circumstances apply. To the extent that these awards vest, the participant will receive the accumulated dividends that have accrued over the performance period in direct proportion to the number of standard performance shares that actually vest.
(3)Restricted stock unit awards allow NEOs to receive shares of our common stock in the future only after the awards vest, which will occur only if the individual remains an employee through the vesting date or certain other circumstances apply. The restricted stock unit awards granted to NEOs, other than Mr. Zeitz vest in three equal annual installments beginning one year after the grant date. The restricted stock unit awards granted to Mr. Zeitz vest over two years, with 50% vesting after the first year and the remaining 50% vesting ratably on a monthly basis over the second year. To the extent that these awards vest, the participant will receive the accumulated dividends that have accrued over the service period. Under the vesting rules of our restricted stock unit awards, a recipient who is at least 55 years old, is eligible for retirement and retires from the Company will have all awards that were granted 12 or more months prior to the date of retirement vest upon retirement.
(4)The date the Human Resources Committee initially took action to approve the award. As noted in note (2) certain standard performance shares shown as granted in 2022 were approved in 2021 but were not considered granted until the annual performance goals were communicated by the Company to the NEO in 2022.

(1)We granted options to Mr. Zeitz on December 1, 2021. These WIN stock options will vest only if stock price performance goals and continued service thresholds are met. Any portion of the WIN stock options that are not vested based on continued service at the time of Mr. Zeitz’s termination of employment will be forfeited, except that, if Mr. Zeitz’s employment is terminated by us without cause prior to December 31, 2023, then he will be deemed to have satisfied the continuous employment requirement with respect to a pro rata portion of the 66% of the WIN stock options that were tied to his continuous employment through December 31, 2023. Any portion of the WIN stock options that are not exercisable based on the stock price goals by December 31, 2026, will be forfeited as of such date, and any unexercised portion of the WIN stock options will be immediately forfeited if Mr. Zeitz’s employment is terminated for cause. Finally, to provide a further incentive for performance and continued service, a voluntary termination before December 31, 2024 reduces any WIN stock option term from 10 years to 6 years.
(2)The amounts in this column consist of unvested restricted stock units and, if applicable, earned but unvested performance shares. No NEOs held earned but unvested performance shares at December 31, 2022. The value of the awards in this column is based on the closing price of Harley-Davidson’s common stock on December 30, 2022.
(3)The amounts in this column consist of unearned standard performance shares and Aspirational Performance Shares. The value disclosed is based on actual performance achieved for each of the underlying performance measures through December 31, 2022. If actual performance was less than threshold, then the value disclosed is based on achieving threshold performance. If actual performance exceeded threshold, then the value of shares disclosed is based on achieving target performance. The value of remaining shares related to measures with actual performance that exceeded target is disclosed based on achieving maximum performance. Threshold performance for the Aspirational Performance Shares represents the shares that would be earned at the lowest share price threshold that is not yet achieved as of December 31, 2022. The value of shares was based on the closing price of Harley-Davidson’s common stock on December 30, 2022.

Pension Benefits
We maintain the Harley-Davidson Retirement Annuity Plan which is a noncontributory defined benefit pension plan. Under the plan, our eligible salaried employees are generally eligible to retire with unreduced benefits at age 62 or later. The plan was closed to new participants in 2006 and benefit accruals under plan ceased after December 31, 2022. Based on tenure, none of our NEOs were eligible to participate in the Harley-Davidson Retirement Annuity Plan.

(1)Executive contributions to these plans represent compensation from salary and non-equity incentive plans that NEOs earned but elected to defer. The entire executive contribution is therefore included in the NEO’s compensation reported in the Summary Compensation Table.
(2)Employees of HDMC, including all NEOs, hired after August 1, 2006 received a matching contribution of up to 75% of their deferred compensation plan contributions (including contributions to the Company’s 401(k) plans and its non-qualified deferred compensation plans) on the first 6% of cash compensation (salary and short-term incentive plan pay) that was deferred. In addition, HDMC employees with a date of hire or rehire on or after August 1, 2006 who are not covered under the Harley-Davidson Retirement Annuity Plan after August 1, 2006, may receive an additional employer contribution of 4% of their eligible pay from the preceding year. All NEOs received this contribution in 2022. The total amount of employer contributions for each NEO that is included in the non-qualified deferred compensation plan is equal to the total contribution less the amount contributed to each such NEO’s 401(k) account. All amounts shown as registrant contributions are included in the NEO’s compensation reported in the Summary Compensation Table.
(3)Executives have the option of allocating their deferred compensation balances across several different independent third-party investment vehicles. No amounts of aggregate earnings for the last fiscal year or for prior years have been included in the Summary Compensation Table.
(4)No amounts are included in the aggregate balance that have been reported in the Summary Compensation Table for previous years.
We include a description of the HDI Deferred Compensation Plan in the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis section.”
PAYMENTS MADE UPON TERMINATION
Regardless of the manner in which an NEO’s employment terminates, they may be entitled to receive amounts earned during their term of employment. Such amounts may include:
•Non-equity incentive compensation earned during the fiscal year;
•Amounts contributed under our Deferred Compensation Plan; and
•Amounts accrued and vested through our 401(k) savings plan and pension and similar plans.
Change of Control
As of December 31, 2022, we had Transition Agreements with Messrs. Zeitz, Krause and Krishnan and Mses. Goetter and O'Sullivan. Each agreement provides that, if we terminate the individual’s employment for any reason (other than for cause) within two years after a change of control, then such individual will receive a cash payment and certain other benefits. In addition, among other events, voluntary termination by the executive of their employment for “good reason” within two years after a change of control would entitle the executive to the benefits under the agreement. We describe the Transition Agreements more fully in the section “Compensation Discussion and Analysis-Transition Agreements and Change of Control.”
Our incentive stock plans also contain provisions that apply if there is a change of control. Equity awards that we made under our 2014 Incentive Stock Plan and the AIP to an executive who was then a party to a Transition Agreement do not become fully vested upon a change of control (but may become vested if we terminate the individual’s employment for any reason other than cause within two years after a change of control). Beginning in 2019, all of our long-term incentive awards have a double-trigger vesting provision.
Under the Transition Agreements, a change of control of Harley-Davidson means any one of the following:
•The total number of Directors either serving on the date of the agreement or approved by those serving on the date of the agreement or successors they have approved no longer constitutes at least two-thirds of the Board; or
•Any person becomes the owner, directly or indirectly, of 20% or more of our outstanding common stock or voting power; or
•The consummation of a merger or consolidation with another company, a sale of most of our assets, or a liquidation or dissolution, unless, in the case of a merger or consolidation, the total number of Directors serving on the date of the agreement or approved by those serving on the date of the agreement or successors they have approved will constitute at least two-thirds of the board of the surviving company after the transaction; or
•At least two-thirds of the total number of Directors either serving on the date of the agreement or approved by those serving as of the date of the agreement or successors they have approved determines immediately before a proposed action is taken that the action will constitute a change of control (and the action is subsequently taken).
The definition of change of control in the AIP includes a majority threshold for a change in Directors and a 35% ownership threshold rather than 20%, and it does not include an ability for Directors to make a determination that an action constitutes a change of control.

The table below presents estimates of the amounts of compensation payable to each NEO that we employed at December 31, 2022, upon a change of control and termination of the executive in a manner that entitles the executive to cash severance. The amounts shown assume that such change of control and termination were both effective as of December 31, 2022. The actual amounts to be paid can only be determined at the time of a change of control or the executive’s termination. These amounts are in addition to vested amounts of deferred compensation that are fully disclosed for each NEO that we employed on December 31, 2022 in the “Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation” table.

(a)For each NEO, the cash severance reflects the product of two times the sum of the NEO’s highest annual base salary in the preceding five years plus two times the current target bonus. Under the Transition Agreements, to the extent that payments to executives would be considered “excess parachute payments” as defined in Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code, the payments will be reduced to a point at which they are no longer considered excess parachute payments or the executive will receive the full payment and be personally liable for the excise tax, whichever produces the larger after-tax benefit to the executive. In these agreements, there are no provisions for an excise tax gross-up. Amounts in the table assume that the executives received the full payments that the Transition Agreements contemplate without reduction.
(b)For each NEO, the interrupted bonus reflects the higher of the NEO’s target STIP opportunity for 2022 or the actual bonus earned in 2022 on the assumption that the actual bonus for 2022 would not have been determined had the change of control occurred December 31, 2022. Without the benefit of a Transition Agreement, there is no entitlement to any amount under the STIP upon a change of control.
(c)Messrs. Zeitz and Krishnan and Mses. Goetter and O'Sullivan are entitled to two years of continued coverage in our health and welfare benefit programs. Messrs. Zeitz, Krishnan and Krause and Mses. Goetter and O'Sullivan are entitled to a lump sum payment for outplacement services. We estimated the amounts in the table relating to continued coverage in our health and welfare benefit programs and outplacement services.
(d)As of December 31, 2022, pursuant to our Transition Agreements, Messrs. Zeitz, Krishnan and Krause and Mses. Goetter and O'Sullivan are not eligible for additional retirement benefits upon a change of control.
(e)For each NEO, amounts reflect the value of restricted stock, restricted stock units and unvested options awards that become vested upon termination following a change of control. The definition of change of control under our stock plans is essentially the same as in the Transition Agreements.
(f)We calculated the value of the unvested stock options based upon the difference between the aggregate market value of the shares of common stock underlying the unvested stock options and the aggregate exercise price that the NEO would be required to pay upon exercise of those stock options. We calculated the value of the unvested shares of restricted stock and unvested restricted stock units held by each NEO based upon the aggregate market value of the related shares. We used a price of $41.60 per share to determine market value in both of these calculations, which was the closing price of our common stock on December 30, 2022, as reported by the New York Stock Exchange.
(g)For each NEO, amounts reflect (i) the target value of standard performance share awards; (ii) a value for AIP Performance Shares that assumes that the target level under such awards is the lowest price threshold that has not been met; and (iii) the value of restricted stock, restricted stock units and unvested options awards that become vested upon a change of control regardless of whether the executive’s employment is terminated. We used a price of $41.60 per share to determine market value in each of these calculations.

Executive Severance
Our Executive Severance Policy, which applies to a subset of our executives, including the CEO and the other NEOs, provides for a cash severance benefit of 24 months of base salary and 18 months continuation of certain employee benefits, such as life insurance, medical benefits and limited outplacement benefits if we terminate employment for reasons other than for cause. To receive a severance payment under this policy, the executive must agree to a number of restrictive covenants and execute a general release of claims against the Company.
The table below presents estimates of the amounts of compensation payable to each NEO under the Executive Severance Policy assuming a termination absent a change of control for any reason other than cause, death, or disability. The amounts shown assume that such termination was effective as of December 31, 2022. The actual amounts to be paid can only be determined at the time of the executive’s termination.

Vesting of Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units
We awarded restricted stock and restricted stock units to NEOs, and NEOs earn the related shares when the restrictions on the awards lapse, but only if the individual remains an employee or certain other circumstances apply. In some circumstances, a pro-rata portion of the shares will vest based on a ratio of actual service to the requisite service period. This is the case for all awards if the NEO dies or becomes disabled. For certain awards, if the NEO is 55 years of age or older and elects to retire more than one year after the date of the grant of the award, all unvested shares or units under that award will automatically vest upon retirement. In addition, other awards vest fully if we terminate the NEO other than for cause. In general, “cause” means conviction of or plea of no contest to a felony, willful misconduct that is materially and demonstrably detrimental to the Company, willful refusal to perform duties consistent with the NEO’s office, position, or status with the Company, or other conduct or inaction that the Human Resources Committee determines constitutes cause.
The following table reflects, for each NEO that we employed at December 31, 2022, the value of restricted stock and restricted stock unit awards that become vested upon termination of the NEO’s employment for each of the reasons indicated in the table assuming that such termination occurred on December 31, 2022. The value is based upon the aggregate market value of the shares that would vest in each instance. We used a price of $41.60 per share to determine market value, which was the closing price of our common stock on December 30, 2022, as reported by the New York Stock Exchange. Amounts that we reflect in this table are in addition to any amounts the NEO may be entitled to receive under the Executive Severance Policy.

(1)While terms for certain awards provide that the individual will forfeit any shares that are not vested if we terminate the individual, upon such a termination the individual could elect to treat the termination as a qualified retirement if they were eligible. There is no pro-rata vesting based on performance or, in the first year after grant, due to retirement. As a result, the awards give the NEO a strong incentive to remain with the Company.
Standard Performance Shares
We awarded standard performance shares to NEOs, and NEOs earn the related shares when the three-year performance period ends, but only if the individual remains an employee or certain other circumstances apply. In some circumstances, a pro-rata portion of the shares will vest based on a ratio of actual service to the requisite service period. This is the case for all awards if the NEO dies or becomes disabled. For certain awards, if the NEO is 55 years of age or older and elects to retire more than one year after the date of the grant of the award, and for all awards granted in 2019 and forward, a pro-rata portion of the shares will vest based on the ratio of actual service in the requisite performance period and based on final results for the performance period. Finally, as we disclose in the table above that presents the amounts payable to each NEO upon a change of control, certain performance share awards also vest fully on a change of control.

The following table reflects, for each NEO that we employed at December 31, 2022, the value of standard performance share awards that become vested upon retirement assuming that such retirement occurred on December 31, 2022. The value is based upon the aggregate market value of the shares that would vest in each instance with performance results at target. We used a price of $41.60 per share to determine market value, which was the closing price of our common stock on December 30, 2022, as reported by the New York Stock Exchange. Amounts that we reflect in this table are in addition to any amounts the NEO may be entitled to receive under the Executive Severance Policy.

AIP Performance Shares
We awarded AIP Performance Shares to NEOs. If Mr. Zeitz’s employment as Chief Executive Officer is terminated for any reason prior to the date on which all of his AIP Performance Shares are earned, then he will forfeit any AIP Performance Shares that he has not earned as of such termination. If his employment as Chief Executive Officer is terminated by us without cause prior to the date on which all of the AIP Performance Shares are vested, then he will forfeit any then-unvested AIP Performance Shares that do not become vested as a result of the termination of his employment as of the date his employment as Chief Executive Officer is terminated unless he continues serving in a Board-approved role. If Mr. Zeitz continues serving in a Board-approved role but such service is terminated by us without cause prior to the date on which all of the AIP Performance Shares are vested, then he will forfeit any then-unvested AIP Performance Shares that do not become vested as a result of the termination of such service. If Mr. Zeitz’s employment had terminated as of December 31, 2022, he would not have been entitled to any amounts in respect of AIP Performance Shares.
If the employment of a participant other than Mr. Zeitz is terminated for any reason prior to the date on which all of the participant’s AIP Performance Shares are earned, then the participant will forfeit any AIP Performance Shares that have not been earned as of such termination. If the employment of a participant other than Mr. Zeitz is terminated by us prior to the date on which all of the participant’s AIP Performance Shares are vested, then the participant will forfeit any then-unvested AIP Performance Shares that do not become vested as a result of such termination of employment. If the employment of a participant other than Mr. Zeitz had terminated as of December 31, 2022, then they would not have been entitled to any amounts in respect of AIP Performance Shares.
Under the AIP, in the event of a change of control, each holder of an AIP Performance Share for which the performance period has not expired will earn the number of AIP Performance Shares that would have been earned had the 30-day VWAP per share reached a price equal to the per share value realized at the time of the change of control, but calculated as if the number of AIP Performance Shares earned were determined on an interpolated basis between the two specific stock prices specified as performance goals (i.e., the nearest performance goal stock price that is less than the change in control consideration and the nearest performance goal stock price that is greater than the change in control consideration) as determined by the Human Resources Committee. To the extent such AIP Performance Shares had previously been earned on the basis of the actual 30-day VWAP, they will remain earned and subject to any remaining time-vesting schedule. To the extent such AIP Performance Shares had not previously been earned consistent with the non-change-of-control related vesting, 50% will be deemed vested immediately upon the change of control, and the remaining 50% will be deemed vested on the earlier of the one-year anniversary of the change of control or the participant’s termination by us without cause. All other terms and conditions applicable to the AIP Performance Shares will continue unchanged, but no additional Performance Shares may be earned on the basis of the stock price performance goals following the change of control.
For a participant who is also a party to a Transition Agreement, the result of a termination of employment on or following a change of control may differ. Under the agreement, AIP Performance Shares, if not already vested, will be fully and immediately vested as if all performance requirements have been satisfied at the target level of performance. The table above reflects a value for AIP Performance Shares that assumes that the target level under such awards is the lowest price threshold that has not been met.
Payments Made Upon Death or Disability
Upon death of a NEO while employed, in addition to the benefits to which we refer immediately following the heading “Payments Made Upon Termination” above and the amounts we disclose above relating to restricted stock and restricted stock unit awards, the NEO will receive payments under our death benefits. Our death benefits provide that each NEO is entitled to three times annual base salary in the event of their death while actively employed, which we would generally satisfy out of proceeds of life insurance that we maintain. For each NEO, we report premiums that we paid for this life insurance as part of “All Other

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION |

Compensation” in the “Summary Compensation Table.” In addition, we maintain long-term disability plans in which NEOs may participate on a voluntary basis on the same terms as other salaried employees. There is no Company contribution toward the cost of this benefit.
Under the form of our Transition Agreement, if the NEO’s death occurs during employment, then no benefits are payable under the agreement. In addition, under all forms of our Transition Agreement, if an NEO dies after a termination that entitles the NEO to a cash payment, or if an NEO’s death during active employment after a change of control entitles the NEO’s estate to a cash payment, the health benefit coverage for the NEO’s eligible dependents will continue until the earlier to occur of one year following the executive’s death or three years following the executive’s termination. All other welfare benefit coverage will cease at the date of the NEO’s death.
Treatment of Certain Benefits Upon Retirement
For compensation purposes, we generally define “retirement” as separation from service on or after attainment of age 55. When an individual who satisfies these criteria leaves service, we consider them a retiree for purposes of certain compensation and benefits programs. An executive who has received a performance share award will receive a payout on a pro-rata basis for each award that we granted to the executive before their retirement date. The payment amount under each of these awards is based upon the actual months of employment since the date of the award divided by the 36-month life of the award. Actual payments will only be made upon the completion of the performance period. An executive will receive a payout with respect to a STIP award relating to the year in which they retire on a pro-rata basis based upon their actual pay during the year in which they retire and the actual STIP performance of the Company. Equity awards granted at least 12 months prior to the date of retirement vest on the date of retirement. These benefits are in addition to those that we disclose above under “Pension Benefits.”
As of December 31, 2022, one of our NEOs, Mr. Zeitz, was eligible to retire and would receive certain benefits (as described above) upon retirement. Assuming that he had retired effective as of that date, he would have been entitled to receive value in respect of the vesting of restricted stock and restricted stock units as reflected in the table that appears above under “Vesting of Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units".
Harley-Davidson CEO Pay Ratio for 2022
To comply with Item 402(u) of Regulation S-K, we are providing the following disclosure regarding the ratio of the median annual total compensation of our employees and the annual total compensation of our Chief Executive Officer for the year ended December 31, 2022. For our 2022 ratio, as required, we chose a new median employee using the following methodology:
•We identified each individual that we employed globally on October 15, 2022;
•We then compared the base salary or base wages that we paid to each individual in our employee population during 2022;
•We annualized the base salary for any individual who commenced work with us after January 1, 2022; and
•We then used assumptions that we considered reasonable based on our knowledge of our employee population to select the median employee that we thought was most representative of our employee population.
To calculate our ratio for 2022, we calculated such median employee’s annual total compensation for 2022 in the same way that we calculated total compensation for each of our NEOs that appear in the Summary Compensation Table above. Our median employee’s total compensation was $80,462, and our CEO’s total compensation (as reported in the Summary Compensation Table) was $43,324,864, resulting in a ratio of the median employee’s compensation to our CEO’s compensation of approximately 1:539.
The compensation associated with the AIP that we disclose for the CEO in the Summary Compensation Table in 2022 reflects the grant date fair value under accounting rules, which represents $32.4 million of the $43.3 million in CEO compensation. The CEO will earn this compensation only to the extent one or more share price thresholds are achieved; as of the record date of the Annual Meeting, none of the share price thresholds have been met, and therefore, no Aspirational Performance Shares have been earned. If the accounting value of the Aspirational Performance Shares was not included in calculating this ratio, then the CEO pay ratio would be 1:135.

Total Shareholder Return is cumulative from the final trading day of 2019 to the final trading day of the applicable year and assumes dividends are reinvested on the ex-dividend date. The peer group referenced in the table reflects the S&P 400 Consumer Discretionary Index.
CAP has been determined under the SEC-defined methodology. However, for equity-based compensation, in addition to equity that has vested in the applicable year, CAP includes the change in fair value for unvested awards. Importantly, these unvested award values have not actually been earned or realized by the executive. For Mr. Zeitz's 2022 compensation actually paid, $32 million of the $43.3 million is the grant date fair value of the Aspirational Performance Shares under accounting rules. The CEO will earn this compensation only to the extent one or more share price thresholds are achieved; as of the record date for the Annual Meeting, none of the share price thresholds has been met and, therefore, no Aspirational Performance Shares have been earned.

•TSR is a performance measure the Human Resources Committee reviews when determining executive compensation and is included in the PVP Table above as required. •Our standard performance shares include relative TSR as a measure. Further, the Aspirational Performance Shares granted in 2022 will only vest to the extent predetermined share price thresholds are achieved. •This table illustrates the relationship between CAP and TSR.

•Net income is not a performance measure we use when setting executive compensation, but it is included in the PVP Table above as required. •This table illustrates the relationship between CAP and net income.

•The company-selected measure we used to link CAP to company performance during the most recently completed fiscal year is operating income. •Operating income is the sole measure in our short-term incentive plan and, as an earning measure, is a driver of stock price performance. •This illustrates the relationship between CAP and operating income.

(1)Non-employee Directors have the option of receiving all or a portion of their fees in the form of stock. The portions of fees received at the election of the non-employee Director in the form of stock in 2022 were as follows: Mr. Farley - $57,500, Mr. Golston - $65,000 and Mr. Masood - $80,385.
(2)In August 2002, the Board approved stock ownership guidelines which the Board revised most recently in May 2021. In May 2021, the Board approved a change in the Director stock ownership guidelines to adopt a five-year phase in period. Each non-employee Director has five years either from their election to the Board of Directors or from May 20, 2021, whichever is longer, to accumulate the appropriate number of shares.
(3)Non-employee Directors receive an annual grant of share units, each representing the value of one share of our stock. The payment of share units is deferred, at the election of each non-employee Director, until the first anniversary of each respective grant date or the time a non-employee Director ceases to serve as a Director, and share units are payable at that time in actual shares of our stock. The compensation related to share unit awards has been calculated based on the grant date fair value of the award. The fair value of a share unit is based on the market price of a share of stock on the date of grant.
(4)Jared Dourdeville, as a representative of the significant Harley-Davidson shareholder H Partners, has elected to forgo Director compensation.
Narrative to Director Compensation Table
Directors who are our employees (currently Mr. Zeitz) do not receive compensation for their services as Directors. Directors who are not employees received an annual retainer fee of $110,000 in fiscal year 2022. Mr. Linebarger received an additional $35,000 for his service as the Presiding Director. For serving as the Chair of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, a non-employee Director is entitled to receive an additional retainer fee of $15,000. For serving as the Chair of the Brand and Sustainability Committee, a non-employee Director is entitled to receive an additional annual retainer fee of $10,000. The Chair of the Audit and Finance Committee and the Chair of the Human Resources Committee are each entitled to receive an additional $20,000 annual retainer fee. Other members of the Audit and Finance Committee are entitled to receive an additional $5,000 annual retainer fee.
Pursuant to our Director Stock Plan, a non-employee Director may elect to receive 0%, 50%, or 100% of the annual retainer fee to be paid each calendar year in the form of shares of our common stock based upon the fair market value of common stock at the time of our Annual Meeting. In addition, non-employee Directors receive an annual grant of share units, each representing the right to receive one share of our common stock and therefore having the value of one share of our common stock.
Also pursuant to our Director Stock Plan, non-employee Directors may choose to defer the receipt of their annual retainer fees payable in cash or shares of common stock. Deferrals of fees payable in shares of common stock and cash are credited to a share account, are treated as if invested in common stock, and ultimately will be paid in common stock. A Director will receive their deferred compensation following cessation of their service on the Board in compliance with applicable rules regarding deferred compensation plans.
The purpose of our Director Stock Plan is to further align the interests of outside Directors with shareholders by providing for a portion of annual compensation for the Directors’ services in shares of common stock or share units.
In addition, we provide to non-employee Directors a clothing allowance of up to $1,500 to purchase Harley-Davidson MotorClothes® apparel and accessories, along with a discount on our products that is the same discount available to all U.S. employees of HDMC. We may also provide a Director with the temporary use of a motorcycle where doing so may further our business objectives.

DELINQUENT SECTION 16(A) REPORTS
Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires our Directors, executive officers and holders of more than 10% of our common stock to file with the SEC reports regarding their ownership and changes in ownership of our securities. Based solely on our review of the copies of Forms 3 and 4 (and any amendments) filed with the SEC and the written representations of our Directors and executive officers, we believe that during fiscal year 2022 our Directors and executive officers complied with all Section 16(a) filing requirements, except for: (i) late Form 3 filings for Tori Termaat and Jared D. Dourdeville due to a backlog at the SEC, which caused a delay in issuing their EDGAR codes; (ii) late Form 4 filings for Bryan Niketh, Jonathan R. Root and J. Darrell Thomas, relating to the settlement of Performance Share Units, which were issued in shares on February 4, 2022, and (iii) late Form 4 filings for Jonathan R. Root and Mark Kornetzke, relating to the vesting of restricted stock on February 9, 2022.

COMMITTEE REPORTS |

NOMINATING AND CORPORATE GOVERNANCE COMMITTEE REPORT
The Board has empowered the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, which we refer to as the Nominating Committee, to continuously review our corporate governance practices and to make recommendations to the Board. The Nominating Committee regularly reviews our Corporate Governance Policy, encourages the continuing education of Board members, provides Board members with access to senior management and defines each Board member’s responsibility to attend meetings and review all pre-meeting materials.
As part of our global compliance and ethics program, we have a Code of Business Conduct that applies to all of our employees, officers and Board members. We also have a Supplier Code of Conduct that applies to our suppliers and their agents who do work on behalf of Harley-Davidson. The Code of Business Conduct reporting helpline, website and phone numbers are designed to provide employees and suppliers with the opportunity to ask Code-related questions or report a potential Code violation throughout the world (where legally allowable). Our Chief Legal Officer reports to the Nominating Committee on matters relating to the Company’s global compliance and ethics program. We also have in effect the Conflict of Interest Process that the Nominating Committee has approved. The Code of Business Conduct, Supplier Code of Conduct, Conflict of Interest Process for Directors and Executive Officers, Corporate Governance Policy and each of the four committee Charters appear on the Corporate Governance page of our website at https://investor.harley-davidson.com.
As set forth in its Charter, the Nominating Committee leads the Board in an annual review of the performance of the Board, the Board’s committees and the Directors. Annually, the Nominating Committee reviews the independence of each Director and examines all relationships, if any, a Director has with the Company to determine if that relationship is material. The Nominating Committee has determined that one current Director (Mr. Zeitz) is not independent and has reviewed the very limited business relationships that two other Directors have with the Company. We disclose these relationships in the “Certain Transactions” section. All members of the Nominating Committee are independent in accordance with the requirements of New York Stock Exchange rules.

SHAREHOLDER PROPOSALS
If a shareholder intends to present a proposal at the 2024 Annual Meeting of Shareholders and desires to have us include that proposal in our proxy materials for that meeting under Rule 14a-8 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, then the shareholder must ensure that we receive the proposal by December 8, 2023. A shareholder who otherwise intends to present business at the 2024 Annual Meeting of Shareholders must comply with the requirements set forth in our Restated Articles of Incorporation as supplemented by our By-laws. Our Restated Articles of Incorporation and By-laws contain specific requirements with which a shareholder must comply. For example, our Restated Articles of Incorporation state that a shareholder must give written notice that complies with the Restated Articles of Incorporation as supplemented by our By-laws to our Secretary not less than 60 days before the date in 2024 corresponding to the date we released this Proxy Statement to our shareholders. Because we anticipate mailing the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials on April 6, 2023, we must receive notice of a proposal for shareholders to consider at the 2024 Annual Meeting of Shareholders that a shareholder submits other than pursuant to Rule 14a-8 no later than February 6, 2024.
If we receive the notice after February 6, 2024, then we will consider the notice untimely and we will not have an obligation to present the proposal at the 2024 Annual Meeting of Shareholders. If the Board chooses to present a proposal that a shareholder submits other than under Rule 14a-8 at the 2024 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, then the persons named in the proxies that the Board requests for the 2024 Annual Meeting of Shareholders may exercise discretionary voting power with respect to the proposal to the extent authorized by Rule 14a-4(c) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

62 |  | HARLEY-DAVIDSON, INC. • 2023 PROXY STATEMENT

Q: What is the purpose of the Annual Meeting of Shareholders?
A: (1) To elect nine Directors to the Board; (2) to approve, by advisory vote, the compensation of our NEOs; (3) to consider the frequency of the advisory vote on the compensation of our Named Executive Officers; (4) to ratify the selection of Ernst & Young LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2023; and (5) to take action upon any other business as may properly come before the Annual Meeting and any adjournments or postponements of the meeting. The Notice of Annual Meeting and this Proxy Statement describe these matters in more detail. In addition, members of management will respond during or after the Annual Meeting, as appropriate, to questions submitted live by shareholders during the Annual Meeting related to the items of business at the Annual Meeting or relating to progress of The Hardwire. Questions may be submitted at the Annual Meeting through www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/HOG2023. We will post the applicable questions and answers on our Investor Relations website shortly after the meeting.
Q: Who can attend the Annual Meeting of Shareholders by virtual presence online?
A: The 2023 Annual Meeting will be held virtually and is accessible through the Internet. All shareholders of Harley-Davidson, Inc., or individuals that shareholders have duly appointed as their proxies and guests, may attend the Annual Meeting by virtual presence online by visiting www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/HOG2023 and providing the control number found on the proxy card. Appointing a proxy in response to this request will not affect a shareholder’s right to attend the Annual Meeting and to vote by virtual presence online. To attend the Annual Meeting, please follow these instructions:
If shares you own are registered in your name or if you own shares through our Dividend Reinvestment Plan, to attend the Annual Meeting by virtual presence online, you will need to provide the control number found on your proxy card; or if you hold your shares in “street name” (that is, through a broker, bank or other nominee), to attend the Annual Meeting by virtual presence online, you will need to provide the control number found on the voting instructions or proxy card provided by such broker, bank or other nominee.
Q: What constitutes a quorum?
A: A majority of the 144,291,321 shares of our stock outstanding on March 24, 2023 must be present, by virtual presence online or by proxy, to provide a quorum at the Annual Meeting. If you vote, your shares will count toward satisfying the quorum requirement. If you return a proxy card or otherwise submit a proxy marked “ABSTAIN” or without voting instructions, your shares of common stock will also count toward satisfying the quorum requirement. Also, in those instances where brokers who hold shares on behalf of others have returned a proxy but could not vote the shares on particular matters without receiving voting instructions from the beneficial owners (“broker non-votes”), those shares will count toward satisfying the quorum requirement. If you own shares in street name through a broker, we encourage you to provide voting instructions to your broker. Once a share is counted as present at the Annual Meeting, it will count as present for quorum purposes throughout the Annual Meeting (including any adjournment or postponement of that meeting unless a new record date is or must be set for the adjournment or postponement).
Q: Who is entitled to vote?
A: Only holders of the 144,291,321 shares of our common stock outstanding as of the close of business on March 24, 2023, can vote by virtual presence online at or prior to the Annual Meeting. Each of these shareholders has one vote for each share of our stock held on that date.
Q: How do I vote?
A: If the records of our transfer agent show that you own shares in your name or if you own shares through our Dividend Reinvestment Plan at the close of business on March 24, 2023, then you may vote (1) via the internet at www.proxyvote.com, (2) by virtual presence at the Annual Meeting online at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/HOG2023, (3) by mail after first requesting a printed copy of this Proxy Statement, proxy card and Annual Report on Form 10-K and following the instructions set forth on the proxy card or (4) by telephone after reviewing the Proxy Statement and Annual Report on Form 10-K at www.proxyvote.com. Instructions for using these convenient services are set forth on the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials. If you plan to vote by virtual presence online at our meeting, you will need to visit www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/HOG2023 and use the control number found on your proxy card to vote your shares. In addition, if you own your shares through a bank, broker or other nominee, you will need to obtain a legal proxy issued in your name from your bank, broker or other nominee and follow the materials and instructions that your bank, broker or other nominee has provided.

| QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

If you own shares in street name, you may vote via telephone or the internet if your bank, broker, or other nominee makes those methods available, in which case your bank, broker or other nominee will provide instructions with your Proxy Statement.
The telephone and internet voting procedures will authenticate your identity, allow you to give your voting instructions and confirm that we properly recorded your instructions. If you vote via the internet and/or attend the 2023 Annual Meeting by virtual presence online, you should understand that there might be costs associated with electronic access that you must bear, such as usage charges from internet access providers and telephone companies. You will need a touch tone telephone to vote by telephone.
Q: What is the effect of not voting at the Annual Meeting?
A: The consequences of not voting at the Annual Meeting will depend on how you own your shares. If the records of our transfer agent, Computershare Trust Company, N.A., show that you own shares in your name or if you own shares through our Dividend Reinvestment Plan and you do not vote, we cannot consider those shares present at the meeting and they will not count toward satisfying the quorum requirement.
If you own shares in street name through a broker and do not vote, your broker may vote your shares by virtual presence online at the meeting. If you do not give voting instructions for your shares, your broker may or may not be able to vote your shares in its discretion depending on the proposals before the meeting. Your broker may vote your shares in its discretion on routine matters such as Proposal 4, the ratification of the selection of our independent registered public accounting firm, but may not vote your shares in its discretion on the other Proposals. If you own shares in street name through a broker, we encourage you to provide voting instructions to your broker.
Q: Can I change my vote after I submit my proxy?
A: Yes. You can change your vote at any time before the Annual Meeting by submitting a new proxy or by voting by virtual presence online at the Annual Meeting. Your virtual presence online at the Annual Meeting does not in and of itself revoke your proxy. You also are invited to attend the Annual Meeting by virtual presence online. However, if you are a beneficial owner of shares, because a beneficial owner is not the shareholder of record, you may not vote these shares by virtual presence online at the Annual Meeting unless you obtain a “legal proxy” from the bank, broker or other nominee that holds your shares, giving you the right to vote the shares at the Annual Meeting.
Unless you properly revoke your proxy, the persons you have appointed when you submit a proxy will vote your shares by virtual presence at the Annual Meeting. If you specify a choice by means of the proxy, the persons you have appointed will vote your shares as you specify. If you do not specify a choice, the persons you have appointed will vote your shares in accordance with the recommendations of the Board.
Q: Who will count the vote?
A: Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. has been engaged as our independent inspector of elections to tabulate shareholder votes for the Annual Meeting.
Q: Who pays to prepare and solicit the proxies?
A: We pay the cost of soliciting the proxies relating to the Annual Meeting, except for some costs that may arise through your use of the telephone and internet. We may request proxies in person, by telephone and internet, as well as through the mail. We also expect to ask banks, brokerage houses and other custodians, nominees, or fiduciaries to forward proxy materials to their principals and to obtain proxies. We will reimburse these institutions for their out-of-pocket expenses. The Company may consider engaging a proxy solicitation firm, at the Company's expense, at a later date.

Q: Does Harley-Davidson have a chief compliance officer?
A: Yes. Our Board appointed a Chief Compliance Officer in 2004, with Paul Krause, Vice President, Chief Legal Officer and Secretary, being our current Chief Compliance Officer. Appointing a Chief Compliance Officer was part of the Board’s commitment to compliance and its desire to promote compliance, education and reporting within our Company. This action formalized our continuing efforts to direct and promote an effective compliance program. Among other things, under this compliance program, management is required to report significant compliance issues to the Legal Department when they occur. The compliance program also includes training to employees, including senior management, on corporate governance issues including anti-bribery, ethics, privacy, insider trading restrictions and restrictions on disclosure of nonpublic material information. The Company has a global compliance and ethics training program managed by an attorney from our Legal Department and other employees who manage corporate governance, compliance and records management. The Audit and Finance Committee receives quarterly reports on legal and compliance matters. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee receives an annual report on legal and compliance matters.
Q: Does Harley-Davidson have a disclosure committee?
A: Yes. In 2002, we established a Disclosure Committee comprised of members of management responsible for considering the materiality of information and making disclosure decisions on a timely basis. If necessary, a subset of the Disclosure Committee, comprised of the Chief Financial Officer and the Chief Legal Officer is authorized to fulfill the functions of the Disclosure Committee.
