General Information About the Annual Meeting and Voting

This Proxy Statement is furnished to stockholders of Terex Corporation (“Terex” or the “Company”) in connection with the solicitation of proxies by and on behalf of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) for use at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders of the Company to be held at 10:00 a.m., local time, on May 11, 2018, at the corporate offices of Terex Corporation, 200 Nyala Farm Road, Westport, Connecticut, virtually via the Internet at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/terex2018 and at any adjournments or postponements thereof (collectively, the “Meeting”), for the purposes set forth in the accompanying Notice of Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Notice”).

The Company will also be holding a stockholder forum on compensation matters (the “Compensation Forum”), immediately before the Meeting at 9:30 a.m., local time, on May 11, 2018, at the corporate offices of Terex Corporation, 200 Nyala Farm Road, Westport, Connecticut and virtually via the Internet at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/terex2018, in which stockholders will be given the opportunity to ask questions of the Company’s Compensation Committee chairperson and provide feedback on the Company’s executive compensation program.

As of March 16, 2018, the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Meeting, the Company had outstanding 76,859,922 shares of common stock, $.01 par value per share (“Common Stock”).

Under rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), instead of mailing a printed copy of our proxy materials to each stockholder of record or beneficial owner of our Common Stock, we are furnishing proxy materials, which include our Proxy Statement and Annual Report, to our stockholders over the Internet and providing a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials (the “Internet Notice”) by mail to all of our stockholders, other than to stockholders who previously elected to receive a printed copy of the proxy materials. Those stockholders that previously elected to receive printed proxy materials will each receive such materials by mail. If you received an Internet Notice by mail, you will not receive a printed copy of the proxy materials unless you request to receive these materials in hard copy by following

the instructions provided in the Internet Notice. Instead, the Internet Notice will instruct you how you may access and review all of the important information contained in the proxy materials over the Internet. The Internet Notice also instructs you how you may submit your proxy via telephone or the Internet. If you received an Internet Notice by mail and would like to receive a printed copy of our proxy materials, you should follow the instructions for requesting such materials included in the Internet Notice.

We are mailing the Internet Notice to our stockholders on or about March 30, 2018.

Each share of Common Stock is entitled to one vote per share for each matter to be voted on at the Meeting. Nominees for the Board will be elected if more votes are cast in favor of the nominee than are cast against the nominee by the holders of shares present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote at the Meeting. Each other matter to be voted upon at the meeting requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares of Common Stock present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote.

A quorum of stockholders is constituted by the presence, in person or by proxy, of holders of record of Common Stock representing a majority of the aggregate number of votes entitled to be cast. Abstentions and broker non-votes will be considered present for purposes of determining the presence of a quorum. With respect to all matters to be voted upon at the Meeting, abstentions will have the effect of a negative vote and broker non-votes will not be considered as votes cast and thus will have no effect on the outcome of the vote.

Proxy solicitations by the Board will be made by mail, by phone, via the Internet or by personal interviews conducted by officers or employees of the Company. All costs of solicitations, including (a) printing and mailing of the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials, (b) the printing and mailing of this Proxy Statement and accompanying material, (c) the reimbursement of brokerage firms and others for their expenses in forwarding solicitation material to the beneficial owners of the Company’s stock, and (d) supplementary solicitations to submit proxies, if any, will be borne by the Company.

DIRECTORS AND GOVERNANCE

PROPOSAL 1: ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

At the Meeting, eleven directors of the Company are to be elected to hold office until the Company’s next Annual Meeting of Stockholders or until their respective successors are duly elected and qualified. Each director shall be elected if more votes are cast in favor of the nominee than are cast against the nominee by the holders of shares present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote at the Meeting. Unless marked to the contrary, the proxies received by the Company will be voted FOR the election of the eleven nominees listed below, all of whom are presently members of the Board.

Each nominee has consented to being named in this Proxy Statement and to serve as a director if elected. However, should any of the nominees for director decline or become unable to accept nomination if elected, it is intended that the Board will vote for the election of such other person as director as it shall designate. The Company has no reason to believe that any nominee will decline or be unable to serve if elected.

In the event of an uncontested election, as is the case this year, any nominee for director who is a current director and receives less than a majority of the votes cast in person or by proxy at the Meeting shall offer to resign from the Board. While the Board does not believe that in each such case a director should necessarily leave the Board, this presents an opportunity for the Board, through its Governance and Nominating Committee, to consider the resignation offer.

The information set forth below has been furnished to the Company by the nominees and sets forth for each nominee, as

of March 24, 2018, such nominee’s name, business experience for at least the past five years, other directorships held and age. There is no family relationship between any nominee and any other nominee or executive officer of the Company. On February 2, 2017, Marcato Capital Management LP, Marcato International Master Fund, Ltd. and Matthew Hepler, entered into a letter agreement with the Company in which the Company agreed to add Mr. Hepler to the Company’s Board of Directors and to include Mr. Hepler on the slate of nominees recommended by the Board relating to the Meeting. For information regarding the beneficial ownership of the Common Stock by the current directors of the Company, see “Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management.”

The Governance and Nominating Committee of the Board has nominated each of the following individuals based on various criteria, including, among others, a desire to maintain a balanced experience and knowledge base within the Board, the nominees’ personal integrity, independence, diversity, experience, sound judgment and willingness to devote necessary time and attention to properly discharge the duties of director, and the ability of the nominees to make positive contributions to the leadership and governance of the Company.

The Board recommends that the stockholders vote FOR the following nominees for director.

Name | Age | Positions and Offices with Company | First Year As Company Director
Paula H. J. Cholmondeley | 70 | Director | 2004
Donald DeFosset | 69 | Director | 1999

Board Meetings and Corporate Governance

The Board met 8 times in 2017 at regularly scheduled and special meetings. All of the directors in office during 2017 attended at least 75% of the meetings of the Board and all committees of the Board on which they served during 2017. It is the Company’s policy, as stated in the Company’s

Governance Guidelines (the “Guidelines”), that each director is expected to attend the annual meeting of stockholders. All of the directors then in office attended the Company’s previous annual meeting of stockholders held on May 11, 2017.

Director Independence

It is the Company’s policy that the Board consists of a majority of directors who qualify as independent directors under the listing standards of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”), the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and the requirements of any other applicable regulatory authority, including the SEC. The Board annually reviews the relationship of each director with the Company, and only those directors who the Board affirmatively determines have no material relationship with the Company are deemed to be independent directors. The Guidelines specifically define what is deemed to be a material relationship between the Company and an independent director. The following are the relationships that the Board considers in making its independence determination:

| (i) | whether the director or any of his or her immediate family members is or was within the past five years an officer of the Company;

| (ii) | whether the director is or was within the past five years an employee of the Company;

| (iii) | whether the director or any of his or her immediate family members is or was during the past five years affiliated with, or employed by, any past or present auditor of the Company (or an affiliate thereof);

| (iv) | whether the director or any of his or her immediate family members is or was within the past five years part of an interlocking directorate in which an executive officer of the Company serves or served on the compensation committee of a company that concurrently employs or employed the director or any of his or her immediate family members;

| (v) | whether the director is an executive officer, a partner, member, of counsel or beneficial owner of more than ten percent (10%) of the equity interest of a customer of, or a supplier of goods or services (including without limitation any investment banking firm or law firm) to, the Company where the amount involved in any of the last three fiscal years exceeds certain thresholds;

| (vi) | whether the director is an executive officer, a partner or beneficial owner of more than ten percent (10%) of the equity interest of a company to which the Company was indebted at the end of any fiscal quarter during the

Company’s most recently completed fiscal year or current fiscal year in an amount in excess of five percent (5%) of the Company’s total consolidated assets at the end of such fiscal year;

| (vii) | whether the director is an executive officer, a partner or beneficial owner of more than ten percent (10%) of the equity interest of a company which was indebted to the Company;

| (viii) | whether the director or any of his or her immediate family members was indebted to the Company, other than in the ordinary course of business of the Company and the business of the director or the member of his or her immediate family, as applicable, at the end of any fiscal quarter during the Company’s most recently completed fiscal year or current fiscal year in an amount in excess of $100,000 at the end of such fiscal year;

| (ix) | whether the director is affiliated with a tax exempt entity that within the preceding three years received the greater of (x) $1 million or (y) two percent (2%) of its consolidated gross revenues from the Company (based on the tax exempt entity’s most recently completed fiscal year);

| (x) | whether the director or any of his or her immediate family members is during the current fiscal year or was during the most recently completed fiscal year a party to a transaction or series of similar transactions with the Company or its subsidiaries (excluding director fees, stock options and other director compensation), other than on arm’s-length terms where the amount involved is not material to either party;

| (xi) | whether the director or any of his or her immediate family members received more than $100,000 per year in direct compensation from the Company, other than director and committee fees and pension or other forms of deferred compensation for prior service within the past three years; and

| (xii) | whether the director has any other relationships with the Company or the members of management of the Company that the Board has determined to be material and which are not described in (i) through (xi) above.

DIRECTORS AND GOVERNANCE

After consideration of all applicable matters, the Board determined, based on the above criteria, that none of the directors has a material relationship with the Company other than as a director or as a stockholder except for Mr. Garrison, who is not an independent director. The Board considered that Mr. Sachs was a member of Ares which in the ordinary course of business held a small amount of the Company’s debt. It was noted that the amount of debt was less than 1% of the Company’s total consolidated assets, approximately 1% of the Company’s debt as of December 31, 2017 and less than

0.1% of the committed capital managed by Ares. The Board also considered that Dr. Klinkner was Chairman of the Supervisory Board of DMG, a company that the Company has conducted business with in the past. It was noted that the dollar value of transactions between the Company and DMG was less than 0.1% of the Company’s 2017 net sales. Accordingly, the Board has determined that all of the nominees for director are independent directors except for Mr. Garrison, who has been nominated to serve on the Board as a result of his position as Chief Executive Officer of the Company.

Board Leadership Structure

The Board recognizes that no single leadership structure is right for all companies at all times, and accordingly the Board periodically reviews its leadership structure. The Company had a combined Chairman and Chief Executive Officer position for approximately 20 years and the Board believed that structure was appropriate based on the Company’s Chief Executive Officer’s long tenure with the Company and his familiarity with the Company’s business and industry. The Company separated the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer positions following the retirement of Ronald DeFeo in 2015. As Mr. Garrison has been Chief Executive Officer of the

Company for less than three years, the Board believes it is desirable to have Mr. Garrison focused on the management and operation of the Company’s business without the additional responsibilities of Chairman. Upon the retirement of Mr. DeFeo, Mr. Sachs was elected by the Board as Non-Executive Chairman allowing the Board to benefit from Mr. Sachs’ prior experience as the Company’s Lead Director. However, as the Board periodically reviews its leadership structure, it is possible that the positions could be combined in the future as Mr. Garrison gains seniority in the role as Chief Executive Officer of the Company.

Risk Oversight

Management is responsible for identification of key risks and for development and implementation of processes for the mitigation and monitoring of risks. Management provides comprehensive enterprise risk management assessments to the Board that describes the most significant risks facing the Company, measures the relative magnitude of the risks, identifies the risk owners for each major risk and describes the improvement or monitoring plans surrounding each major risk. The Board has an active role, as a whole and also at the committee level, in overseeing management of the Company’s risks. While each committee is responsible for evaluating certain risks and overseeing the management of such risks, the entire Board is regularly informed through direct presentations and committee reports about such risks. The Audit Committee oversees management of financial risks, financial controls, internal audit and potential conflicts of interest and receives regular internal audit and compliance

risk updates from the Company’s Vice President, Audit Services as well as the Company’s Chief Ethics and Compliance Officer. The Company’s Compensation Committee is responsible for overseeing the management of risks relating to the Company’s human resources and executive compensation plans and arrangements. The Governance and Nominating Committee manages risks associated with the independence of the Board of Directors as well as environmental, health and safety matters and receives regular updates from the Company’s Chief Ethics and Compliance Officer on compliance risks.

The Board also reviews information regarding the Company’s credit, liquidity and operations, as well as the risks associated with each, on a regular basis. In addition, management engages in an in-depth review and dialogue with the Board with respect to the most significant risks facing the Company on a rotating basis throughout the year.

Corporate Governance Principles

The Board and the Governance and Nominating Committee annually review the Company’s corporate governance policies and practices and the Guidelines. The Board believes that the Guidelines effectively assist the Board in the exercise of its duties and responsibilities and serve the best interests of the

Company. These Guidelines reflect the Board’s commitment to monitor the effectiveness of policy and decision making both at the Board and management levels, with a view to achieving strategic objectives of the Company while enhancing stockholder value over the long term. The Board and the

DIRECTORS AND GOVERNANCE

Governance and Nominating Committee will continue to review the Guidelines annually and may make changes as they determine are necessary and appropriate, including changes that may be necessary to comply with new or proposed laws, rules or regulations issued by the SEC and the NYSE. A copy of the Guidelines is available at the Company’s website, www.terex.com, under “Investor Relations” – “Governance” – “Corporate Governance Documents.” In addition, a copy of the Guidelines is available in print, without charge, to any stockholder who requests these materials from the Company.

The Board believes that periodic assessment of director performance is an important governance principle. On an annual basis, directors conduct a survey and rate the performance of the Board and its committees. In addition, on a periodic basis, individual director evaluations are conducted by the Non-Executive Chairman/Lead Director.

Directors have complete access to management and the Company’s outside advisors, and senior officers and other members of management frequently attend Board and

committee meetings at the discretion of the Board or committee, as applicable. It is the policy of the Board that non-management directors also meet privately in executive sessions without the presence of any members of management at each regularly scheduled meeting of the Board and at such other times as the Board shall determine. In addition, the Board may retain and have access to independent advisors of its choice with respect to any issue relating to its activities, and the Company pays the expenses of such advisors.

If you wish to communicate with the non-management directors of the Board, you may correspond by filing a report through Ethicspoint, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, via the Internet at www.ethicspoint.com or by calling, toll free, (877) 584-8488 or 1-877-ETHICSP. Reports should be submitted under the category “Director Communications.” Ethicspoint is an independent third-party provider retained by the Company to offer a comprehensive, confidential and, upon request, anonymous reporting system for receiving communications, complaints and grievances. All communications received by Ethicspoint are relayed to the Board.

Code of Ethics and Conduct

The Company has adopted a code of ethics and conduct that applies to all of its directors and employees, including the Company’s principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principal accounting officer, among others. This code of ethics and conduct is a set of written standards reasonably designed to deter wrongdoing and to promote: honest and ethical conduct; full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure; compliance with applicable governmental laws, rules and regulations; prompt internal

reporting of code violations; and accountability for adherence to the code. The Company periodically reviews, updates and revises its code of ethics and conduct when it considers appropriate. A copy of the current code of ethics and conduct is available at the Company’s website, www.terex.com, under “Investor Relations” – “Governance” – “Corporate Governance Documents.” In addition, a copy of the code of ethics and conduct is available in print, without charge, to any stockholder who requests this material from the Company.

Board Committees

The Board has an Audit Committee, Compensation Committee and Governance and Nominating Committee.

Audit Committee Meetings and Responsibilities

The Audit Committee of the Board consists of Messrs. Hansen (chairperson), DeFosset, Klinkner and Shaffer and Ms. Cholmondeley and Ms. Rush, each of whom is independent as defined in the listing standards of the NYSE and under the Exchange Act. The Audit Committee met nine times during 2017.

Each member of the Audit Committee is required to be financially literate or must become financially literate within a reasonable time after appointment to the Audit Committee, and at least one member of the Audit Committee must have accounting or related financial management expertise.

The Board, in its business judgment, believes that each of the current members of the Audit Committee is financially literate or has accounting or financial management expertise: Mr. Hansen through his business experience as a corporate executive and his involvement in preparing financial statements as a senior executive of a large multinational company; Mr. DeFosset through his business experience as a corporate executive, his involvement in preparing financial statements at various public companies and particularly his experience as a Chief Executive Officer of a public company; Dr. Klinkner through his business experience as a corporate executive and his involvement in preparing financial statements as a senior

executive of a large multinational company; Mr. Shaffer through his extensive experience and involvement in preparing financial statements as the Chief Financial Officer of a large public company; Ms. Rush through her business experience as a corporate executive; and Ms. Cholmondeley through her education, training and experience as a former certified public accountant and her involvement in preparing financial statements as the Chief Financial Officer of a large insurance company. The Board has determined that each of Messrs. Hansen, DeFosset, Klinkner and Shaffer and Ms. Cholmondeley is an “audit committee financial expert,” as such term is defined under the regulations of the SEC.

The Audit Committee assists the Board in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities by meeting regularly with the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm and operating and financial management personnel. The Audit Committee reviews the audit performed by the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm and reports the results of such audit to the Board. The Audit Committee reviews the Company’s annual financial statements and all material financial reports provided to the stockholders and reviews the Company’s internal auditing, accounting and financial controls.

DIRECTORS AND GOVERNANCE

As stated in the Audit Committee Charter, the Audit Committee also reviews related party transactions and any other matters pertaining to potential conflicts of interest or adherence to the Company’s standards of business conduct. Related party transactions must be approved by the Audit Committee, who will approve the transaction only if they determine that it is in the best interests of the Company. In considering the transaction, the Audit Committee will consider all relevant factors, including, as applicable: (i) the Company’s business rationale for entering into the transaction; (ii) the alternatives to entering into a related party transaction; (iii) whether the transaction is on terms comparable to those available to third parties, or in the case of employment relationships, to employees generally; (iv) the potential for the transaction to lead to an actual or apparent conflict of interest and any safeguards imposed to prevent such actual or apparent conflicts; and (v) the overall fairness of the transaction to the Company.

The Audit Committee is also responsible for appointing, setting compensation for, and overseeing the work of, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. The Audit Committee has established a policy requiring its pre-approval of all audit and permissible non-audit services provided by the independent registered public accounting firm. On a periodic basis, the Chief Financial Officer of the Company provides the Audit Committee an estimate for the services needed and seeks pre-approval of such services from the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee considers whether such services are consistent with the rules of the SEC on auditor independence. The policy prohibits the Audit

Committee from delegating to management the Audit Committee’s responsibility to pre-approve permitted services of the independent registered public accounting firm.

Requests for pre-approval for services must be detailed as to the services to be provided and the estimated total cost and must be submitted to the Company’s Chief Financial Officer. The Chief Financial Officer then determines whether the services requested fall within the guidance of the Audit Committee as to the services that have been pre-approved. If the service was not of a type that was already pre-approved or the estimated cost would exceed the amount already pre-approved, then the Chief Financial Officer seeks pre-approval of the Audit Committee on a timely basis.

The Audit Committee operates under a written charter adopted by the Board that complies with all applicable requirements of the SEC and the NYSE. A copy of the Audit Committee Charter is available at the Company’s website, www.terex.com, under “Investor Relations” – “Governance” – “Corporate Governance Documents.” In addition, a copy of the charter is available in print, without charge, to any stockholder who requests this material from the Company. This charter sets out the responsibilities, authority and duties of the Audit Committee.

See “Audit Committee Report” for a discussion of the Audit Committee’s review of the audited financial statements of the Company for the Company’s fiscal year ended December 31, 2017.

Compensation Committee Meetings and Responsibilities

The Compensation Committee of the Board consists of Messrs. Shaffer (chairperson), Hepler, Klinkner, Wang and Wine, each of whom is independent as defined in the listing standards of the NYSE. Each member of the Compensation Committee must have a basic understanding of the components of executive compensation and the role of each component as part of a comprehensive program linking compensation to corporate and individual performance in support of the Company’s objectives. The Compensation Committee met eight times during 2017.

The Compensation Committee assists the Board in its responsibilities regarding compensation of the Company’s senior executives and outside directors, including overall responsibility for approving, evaluating and modifying the Company’s plans, policies and programs for compensation of key management personnel. The Compensation Committee establishes compensation arrangements for executive officers and for certain other key management personnel.

The Compensation Committee operates under a written charter adopted by the Board that complies with all applicable requirements of the NYSE. A copy of the Compensation Committee Charter is available at the Company’s website, www.terex.com, under “About Terex” – “Investor Relations” – “Corporate Governance.” In addition, a copy of the charter is available in print, without charge, to any stockholder who requests this material from the Company. This charter sets out the responsibilities, authority and duties of the Compensation Committee. The charter does not provide for any delegation of the Compensation Committee’s duties.

Compensation Risk Assessment

The Company conducted a risk assessment of its compensation policies and practices for its employees, including those related to its executive compensation programs. The findings of the risk assessment were discussed with the Compensation

Committee. Based upon the assessment, the Company believes that its compensation policies and practices do not encourage excessive or unnecessary risk-taking and are not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

No member of the Compensation Committee served as one of the Company’s officers or employees during 2017 or was formerly an officer of the Company. None of the Company’s executive officers served as a member of the compensation committee of any other company that has an executive officer

serving as a member of the Board or Compensation Committee during 2017. None of the Company’s executive officers served as a member of the board of directors of any other company that has an executive officer serving as a member of the Compensation Committee during 2017.

Governance and Nominating Committee Meetings and Responsibilities

The Governance and Nominating Committee of the Board consists of Messrs. DeFosset (chairperson), Hansen, Wang and Wine and Ms. Cholmondeley and Ms. Rush, each of whom is independent as defined in the listing standards of the NYSE. The Governance and Nominating Committee met five times during 2017.

The Governance and Nominating Committee plays a central role in planning the size and composition of the Board, developing criteria and implementing the process of identifying, screening and nominating candidates for election to the Board, recommending corporate governance guidelines and actions to improve corporate governance and evaluating individual director and full Board performance. The Governance and Nominating Committee is also responsible for overseeing a review and assessment of the performance of the Board and its committees at least annually, including establishing the evaluation criteria and implementing the process for evaluation. The Governance and Nominating Committee, as well as the Board as a whole, does a self-assessment of its performance annually, including with respect to the nomination process.

In considering whether to recommend any candidate for inclusion in the Board’s slate of recommended director nominees, including candidates recommended by stockholders, the Governance and Nominating Committee applies the criteria set forth in the Guidelines and gives strong consideration to a wide range of diversity factors as a matter of practice when evaluating director nominees, such as race, gender, age, national origin, work experience and tenure with the Board. These criteria include the candidate’s independence, integrity, diversity, experience, sound judgment in areas

relevant to the Company’s businesses, and willingness to commit sufficient time to the Board, all in the context of an assessment of the perceived needs of the Board at that point in time. Maintaining a balanced experience and knowledge base within the total Board includes considering whether the candidate: (i) is a senior operating executive in a company engaged in the capital and industrial goods industries; (ii) has significant executive management experience for multinational business operations; (iii) has extensive knowledge and experience in financial services and capital markets; (iv) has substantial knowledge of the Company and its business; and (v) has unique knowledge and experience and can provide significant contributions to the Board’s effectiveness. The Board does not have a formal policy regarding director diversity, but considers how the differences in its directors’ backgrounds broaden its business perspective. All candidates for director are reviewed in the same manner, regardless of the source of the recommendation. For details on how stockholders may submit nominations for directors, see “Other Important Information.”

The Governance and Nominating Committee operates under a written charter adopted by the Board that complies with all applicable requirements of the NYSE. A copy of the Governance and Nominating Committee Charter is available at the Company’s website, www.terex.com, under “About Terex” – “Investor Relations” – “Corporate Governance.” In addition, a copy of the charter is available in print, without charge, to any stockholder who requests this material from the Company.

Director Compensation

The objectives of the Company’s compensation program for outside directors are to: (i) attract and retain independent, high caliber outside directors who are not affiliated with the Company and who provide a balanced experience and knowledge base within the Board; (ii) require a meaningful stock ownership in the Company to align the interests of the outside directors with those of the stockholders; and (iii) provide a total compensation opportunity that approximates the 50th percentile of the Benchmark Companies (as defined below).

The compensation program for outside directors has two principal components: (i) an annual retainer for service as a Board member; and (ii) an annual retainer for service on a committee or as Non-Executive Chairman/Lead Director. The program is designed to encourage outside directors to receive a significant portion of their annual retainer for Board service in the Company’s Common Stock, to enable directors to defer receipt of their fees and to satisfy the Company’s Common Stock ownership objective for outside directors. The program does not include the payment of additional fees per meeting, as each director is expected to prepare for and participate in all meetings during the year and provide a continuous year-round effort regardless of the formal meeting calendar.

Directors who are employees of the Company receive no additional compensation by virtue of their being directors of the Company. All directors of the Company are reimbursed for travel, lodging and related expenses incurred in attending Board meetings, committee meetings and other activities in furtherance of their responsibilities as members of the Company’s Board.

Each director receives the equivalent of $225,000 for service as a Board member (or a prorated amount if a director’s

service began other than on the day of the Annual Meeting). Each director may elect to receive their fee in (i) shares of Common Stock currently, which may be deferred into the stock fund of the Company’s Deferred Compensation Plan, (ii) cash currently, (iii) cash deferred into the bond fund of the Company’s Deferred Compensation Plan, or (iv) any two of the preceding alternatives in equal amounts. If a director elects to receive shares of Common Stock currently without deferral into the stock fund of the Company’s Deferred Compensation Plan, then 40% of this amount is paid in cash to offset the tax liability related to such election. For purposes of calculating the number of shares of Common Stock into which any fixed sum translates, Common Stock is valued at its per share closing price on the NYSE on the day immediately preceding the grant date.

Each director is expected to accumulate (for a new director, over the first four years of Board service), the number of shares of Common Stock that is equal in market value to three times the annual retainer for Board service ($675,000). Once this ownership objective is achieved, the director is expected to maintain such minimum ownership level. The intent is to encourage acquisition and retention of Common Stock by directors, evidencing the alignment of their interests with the interests of stockholders. Until such time as a director achieves the ownership objective or if a director shall at any time fall below the ownership objective, directors are expected to invest at least $112,500 per year (or such lesser amount necessary to achieve the ownership objective) in shares of Common Stock until the director has satisfied the ownership objective.

Each director who serves as Non-Executive Chairman/Lead Director or on a committee of the Board receives an annual committee retainer, on the first business day after the Company’s Annual Meeting, as set forth in the table below:

Committee/Board Position* | Retainer
Non-Executive Chairman/Lead Director* | $ | 135,000 |
Audit Committee Chair | $ | 35,000 |
Compensation Committee Chair | $ | 35,000 |
Governance and Nominating Committee Chair | $ | 20,000 |
Audit Committee Member | $ | 10,000 |
Compensation Committee Member | $ | 10,000 |
Governance and Nominating Committee Member | $ | 7,500 |

| * | A Committee Chair shall only receive a committee chair retainer and not a committee member retainer as a result of chairing a committee. In the event the Non-Executive Chairman/Lead Director serves on any committees as either a committee chair or committee member, the Non-Executive Chairman/Lead Director will not be eligible to receive any committee retainer other than the Non-Executive Chairman/Lead Director retainer.

The retainers listed above are payable in cash, and may be deferred into the bond fund of the Company’s Deferred Compensation Plan. For a director whose service begins other than on the day of the Annual Meeting, any retainer is

prorated. If the Company does not hold an Annual Meeting by the end of May in any year, then any retainer that is scheduled to be paid following the Annual Meeting shall be paid on the last business day of May.

A director who leaves the Board at any time during the year, for any reason, will retain any retainer payments already received for such year. The Compensation Committee has discretion to authorize the payment of additional fees to any director under extraordinary circumstances. It is the expectation

of the Compensation Committee that it will review the Outside Director Compensation Policy and the outside director compensation programs of the Benchmark Companies every two to four years, although it may review them more frequently as circumstances warrant.

Certain Relationships and Related Transactions

The Company intends that all transactions with affiliates are to be on terms no less favorable to the Company than could be obtained in comparable transactions with an unrelated person.

PROPOSAL 2: ADVISORY VOTE TO APPROVE THE COMPENSATION OF THE NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS

Pursuant to rules under the Dodd-Frank Act, the Board is asking the Company’s stockholders to vote to approve, on an advisory (non-binding) basis, the compensation of the Company’s Named Executive Officers as disclosed in this Proxy Statement in accordance with SEC rules.

The Board remains committed to sound corporate governance practices and shares the interest of stockholders in maintaining effective performance-based executive compensation programs at the Company. The Board believes that the Company’s executive compensation programs have a proven record of effectively aligning pay with performance and attracting and retaining highly talented executives. The Board strongly encourages you to review the Compensation Discussion and Analysis and compensation tables in this Proxy Statement for detailed information on the extensive processes and factors the Committee considered when establishing performance and pay targets and in making decisions regarding actual payouts under the Company’s short and long-term performance based incentive plans. Accordingly, the Board recommends that stockholders vote FOR the following resolution:

“RESOLVED, that the Company’s stockholders approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of the Named Executive Officers, as disclosed in the Company’s Proxy Statement for the 2018 Annual Meeting of Stockholders pursuant to the compensation disclosure rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, the 2017 Summary Compensation Table and the other related tables and disclosure.”

The say-on-pay vote is advisory, and therefore not binding on the Board. Although non-binding, the Board and the Committee will review and consider the voting results when making future decisions regarding the Company’s executive compensation programs.

The Board recommends a vote FOR the approval of the advisory resolution on executive compensation.

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Overview

The Compensation Committee of the Board (the “Committee”) continually reviews the compensation programs for the Company’s executive officers, including the Named Executive Officers (as defined in the Executive Compensation section below), to ensure they achieve the desired goals of aligning the executive compensation structure with the Company’s stockholders’ interests and current market practices. The Company’s executive compensation programs are based on the following core principles:

| • | be competitive with peers to effectively attract and retain talented executives;

| • | achieve a balance between short-term and long-term compensation;

| • | align executive pay with Company and stockholder performance;

| • | foster an ownership culture through the use of equity awards in order to align the interests of executives and stockholders; and

| • | address the volatility and cyclicality of the Company’s business and industry.

The Company’s results in 2017 and actions taken by the Committee since January 1, 2017 demonstrate the Committee’s commitment to paying for performance and illustrate how the executive compensation program responds to business challenges and the marketplace. Key highlights include the following:

| ✔ | The Company’s total stockholder return in 2017 was approximately 51% (ranked at the 92nd percentile in the Benchmark Companies (as defined below).

| ✔ | The Company’s three-year total stockholder return from 2015- 2017 was approximately 68% (ranked at the 82nd percentile in the Benchmark Companies.

| ✔ | The Company’s earnings per share and operating profit both significantly increased in 2017 as compared with 2016.

| ✔ | Strong correlation between the Company’s total stockholder return and the total realized compensation of the Company’s CEO during the last three fiscal years.

| * | Total Realized Compensation represents: Total compensation, as determined under applicable SEC rules, minus (1) the aggregate grant date fair value of performance-based restricted stock awards that have either been forfeited or whose performance has not yet been achieved and (2) the year-over-year change in pension value and nonqualified deferred compensation earnings, plus (3) the grant date fair value of the performance-based restricted stock awards earned (included in the year earned) and (4) the earnings of options exercised in the year exercised. The Committee believes it is important to compare the Company’s performance with the CEO’s total realized compensation because the total compensation amount included in the Summary Compensation Table includes several items that are driven by accounting and actuarial assumptions, which are not necessarily reflective of compensation actually realized. CEO total realized compensation utilizes compensation information for Ronald M. DeFeo for 2014 and 2015 and for John L. Garrison for 2016 and 2017.

| ** | Total Stockholder Return represents the change in market value of $100 invested in Terex stock for the period commencing December 31, 2014 through December 31, 2017.

| ✔ | The strong performance orientation of the executive compensation program and the rigor of the performance goals set by the Committee has resulted in the forfeiture of previously granted equity awards:

| ✔ | Approximately $4.6 million in stock awards granted in 2010 and 2014 were forfeited in 2017 by the Company’s former CEO and approximately $1.2 million in stock awards granted in 2010, 2014 and 2015 were forfeited in 2017 by the other Named Executive Officers as a result of the Company’s failure to achieve performance targets set by the Committee.

| ✔ | Since the beginning of 2011, the former CEO of the Company has forfeited a total of $15.9 million in stock awards as a result of the Company’s failure to achieve performance targets set by the Committee.

| ✔ | Prior to 2017, the Company’s equity awards would automatically vest upon a change in control of the Company (known as a single trigger). Beginning in 2017, in certain circumstances, the Committee determined that the Company’s equity awards would require both a change in control and a termination of employment without cause for the equity award to vest (known as a double trigger).

| ✔ | The Committee Chairman conducted discussions with four of the Company’s largest stockholders (accounting for approximately 11% of the Company’s outstanding shares) in the first quarter of 2017 to discuss the Company’s executive compensation program as part of its shareholder outreach program.

| ✔ | The Committee Chairman conducted discussions with five of the Company’s largest stockholders (accounting for approximately 12% of the Company’s outstanding shares) in the first quarter of 2018 to discuss the Company’s executive compensation program as part of its shareholder outreach program.

| ✔ | Additionally, all of the Company’s stockholders were given the opportunity to participate in a virtual stockholder forum on compensation matters prior to last year’s annual meeting of stockholders and will be given that opportunity again this year before the Meeting to ask questions of the Committee’s chairperson and provide feedback on the Company’s executive compensation program.

Executive Compensation Program

The Committee is comprised solely of independent directors committed to applying sound governance practices to compensation decisions. The Committee considers a variety of reports and analyses, such as market survey data, compensation tally sheets and compensation data of peer companies, when making decisions regarding target compensation opportunities and the delivery of awards to the Company’s executives, including the Named Executive Officers.

The Committee has the sole authority to hire and dismiss the outside compensation consultants to the Committee. For 2017, the Committee retained Pay Governance LLC (“Pay Governance”), an independent, outside consultant, to support it in determining the compensation of the Company’s executive officers. Pay Governance was not given a narrow list of instructions, but rather was engaged to provide the Committee with any and all information and advice that might assist the Committee in performing its duties and analyzing executive pay packages. In accordance with the Guidelines, the Committee’s compensation consultant did not provide the Company with any other services.

Pay Governance performed a comprehensive analysis of the compensation practices of the Benchmark Companies and provided the Committee with compensation data, including updates regarding trends in executive compensation that the Committee utilized in making its decisions. The comprehensive analysis performed by Pay Governance indicated that the Committee’s mix of target total compensation is in line with typical market practice. In addition, in 2017, the target total cash, target long-term incentives and target total compensation provided to the Company’s executives, in the aggregate, were within the range of competitive market practice.

Compensation Objectives and Principles: The objectives of the Company’s executive compensation program are to: (i) attract and retain executives with the skills critical to the long-term success of the Company; (ii) motivate and reward individual and team performance in attaining business objectives and maximizing stockholder value; and (iii) link a significant portion of compensation to achieving performance goals and appreciation in the total stockholder return of the Company, so as to align the interests of the executives with those of the stockholders.

The Committee believes that its objectives of pay for performance and retention should be balanced and appropriately competitive with the Company’s peers and competitors, so that successful, high-achieving executives will remain motivated and committed to the Company during all phases of the business cycle. The Committee also believes that generally more than half of an executive’s total compensation opportunity should be aligned with the

performance of the Company. As executives progress to higher levels in the Company they have a greater ability to affect the Company’s results and should have an increasing proportion of their pay linked to Company performance and stockholder returns. Annual and long-term incentive compensation opportunities should provide the appropriate focus on short- and long-term individual and corporate strategic business results. Long-term stock-based compensation opportunities should represent a larger proportion of total compensation for Named Executive Officers than short-term cash-based opportunities. Difficult but achievable annual objectives should be compatible with sustainable long-term performance. The allocation in compensation between short- and long-term compensation is generally based on employment market conditions with an emphasis on attraction and retention, as well as attempting to motivate executive officers to achieve excellent results.

Stockholder engagement: Engagement with its stockholders is a key component of the Company’s corporate governance and the Committee believes stockholder engagement is of vital importance in the area of executive compensation as well. The Committee seeks and is open to input from its stockholders regarding the Company’s executive compensation program.

The Committee also believes it is important for all stockholders to have the ability to voice their comments or concerns on the Company’s executive compensation practices. Accordingly, in 2017 (as in prior years) the Company again held a stockholder forum (live and via the Internet) on compensation matters prior to last year’s annual meeting of stockholders giving all stockholders the ability to ask questions of the Committee’s chairperson and provide feedback on the Company’s executive compensation program. The Committee plans to hold a similar compensation forum immediately prior to the Meeting in a further effort to engage with its stockholders on compensation matters. See page 1 of this Proxy Statement for more information on the Compensation Forum.

The Committee took note of the continued strong stockholder support in recent years reflected in the advisory vote on the compensation of the Company’s Named Executive Officers (approximately 95% or more voted in favor in each of the last three years). However, the Committee still believed it was important to continue to engage with stockholders on compensation matters. Consequently, the Committee Chairman met with five of the Company’s largest stockholders (accounting for approximately 12% of the Company’s outstanding shares) in the first quarter of 2018 to discuss the Company’s executive compensation program. Based on these discussions, the Company learned that its stockholders continue to generally approve of the Company’s overall executive compensation program and generally understand the

performance oriented nature of the Company’s executive compensation program. The stockholders were very appreciative of the Company’s outreach and also offered comments and suggestions about some of the elements of and performance metrics used in the Company’s executive

compensation program. The Committee has taken this feedback into consideration in its ongoing efforts to improve the Company’s executive compensation program and the quality of its compensation disclosures.

Executive Compensation Practices

Peer Group: The Committee designs the Company’s total compensation program to be motivational and competitive with the programs of other corporations. The corporations included in the Company’s peer group have been selected based on criteria such as:

| • | having comparable revenues, assets and market capitalization as the Company;

| • | being from a similar industry with which the Company competes for executives;

| • | being a manufacturing corporation that may not be in the same industry as the Company but that provides similar returns to their stockholders (collectively, the “Benchmark Companies”).

In keeping with current best practices, an annual review of the Company’s peer group was conducted and the Committee analyzed the composition of the Benchmark Companies. In conducting its annual review in 2017, the Committee determined that six of the Benchmark Companies had revenues

that were meaningfully above two and a half times the Company’s revenue, one of the Benchmark Companies had revenue that was meaningfully below one-half of the Company’s revenue and two of the Benchmark Companies were acquired in 2016/2017. As a result of this analysis and other analytics conducted by the Committee’s consultant, merger and acquisition activity and the Committee’s overall assessment of the Benchmark Companies, the Committee decided to remove Cameron International Corporation, Cummins Inc., FMC Technologies, Inc., Illinois Tool Works Inc., Ingersoll-Rand Plc, Paccar Inc., Parker-Hannifin Corporation, SPX Corporation, Textron Inc. and Joy Global Inc. These companies were replaced with Dana Incorporated, Westinghouse Air Brake Technologies Corporation, Tenneco Inc., United Rentals, Inc. and American Axle & Manufacturing Holdings, Inc..

The companies currently comprising the Benchmark Companies are:

Peer Group
AGCO Corporation American Axle & Manufacturing Holdings, Inc. Carlisle Companies Inc. Crane Company Dana Incorporated | Dover Corporation Flowserve Corporation Hubbell Inc. Lennox International Inc. The Manitowoc Company, Inc. Meritor Inc. | Navistar International Corporation Oshkosh Corporation Pentair Ltd. Rockwell Automation, Inc. Roper Technologies Inc. | Tenneco Inc. Timken Company Trinity Industries Inc. United Rentals, Inc. Westinghouse Air Brake Technologies Corporation

Compensation Recoupment Policy: The Board and Committee included a “clawback” provision in the Terex Corporation Amended and Restated 2009 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Omnibus Plan”) that allows the Company to recover all or a portion of any incentive award granted or paid to an

executive in the event the award is affected by a restatement of the Company’s financial results caused by errors, omissions or fraud. This policy is in addition to the requirements of Sarbanes-Oxley.

Stock Ownership Guidelines: The Company has stock ownership guidelines to encourage acquisition and retention of the Company’s common stock and to foster an ownership culture, thereby aligning the executives’ interests with the long-term interests of the Company’s stockholders. These ownership guidelines are based on a multiple of each executive’s base salary. Shares that count toward meeting the ownership guideline include shares held outright by the

executive, unvested time-based restricted stock or stock units, unvested performance-based stock where performance has been achieved and any shares acquired through a Company benefit plan. Unearned performance-based shares/units are not counted toward meeting the ownership guideline. The following table shows the Named Executive Officers’ ownership levels and their achievement of the relevant target levels as of December 31, 2017:

Named Executive Officer | Total Stock Ownership ($) | Annual Salary ($) | Total Stock Ownership versus Annual Salary (#) | Target Ownership Level Guideline (# times base salary)
John L. Garrison | $16.2 million | $900,000 | 18.0 times | 6.0 times
John D. Sheehan | $4.2 million | $650,000 | 6.4 times | 3.0 times
Steve Filipov | $5.0 million | $580,253 | 8.6 times | 2.5 times
Eric I Cohen | $6.9 million | $568,283 | 12.1 times | 2.0 times
Matthew Fearon | $3.7 million | $510,000 | 7.2 times | 2.5 times

Internal Pay Equity: As is the case with many companies, the Company relied in 2017 more heavily on the management and leadership skills of its CEO than its other Named Executive Officers. The Company relies on the management and leadership skills of its other Named Executive Officers, but not to the same extent that it relies on its CEO. As a result, its CEO received a significantly greater amount of compensation than the other Named Executive Officers.

Deductibility of Executive Compensation: Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code as amended (the “Code”), limits to $1 million the U.S. federal income tax deductibility of compensation paid in one year to a company’s CEO and certain of its other executive officers. Prior to the enactment of the new U.S. tax law (the “Tax Cuts and Jobs Act”) in December 2017, certain types of compensation above $1 million were deductible if the requirements of Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code with respect to performance-based compensation were satisfied.

In order to reduce or eliminate the amount of compensation that would not qualify for a tax deduction should the compensation of the CEO or any other executive officer

exceed $1 million in any year, the Omnibus Plan was submitted to and previously approved by the Company’s stockholders, so that amounts earned thereunder by certain employees are intended to qualify as performance-based. Although the Committee attempts to establish and maintain compensation programs that optimize the tax deductibility of compensation, the Committee retains discretion to authorize payment of compensation that may not be fully tax deductible when it believes such payouts would be in the best interest of the Company.

As was the case prior to the enactment of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, the Committee will continue to monitor issues concerning the deductibility of executive compensation. Since corporate objectives may not always be consistent with the requirements for tax deductibility, the Committee is prepared, when it deems appropriate, to enter into compensation arrangements under which payments will not be deductible under Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code. Thus, deductibility will be one of many factors considered by the Committee in ascertaining appropriate levels or modes of compensation.

Executive Compensation Components

The executive compensation program has three principal components: short-term compensation (base salary and annual incentive), long-term incentive compensation and post-employment compensation, each of which is described below.

While the components of compensation are considered separately, the Committee takes into account the full compensation package afforded by the Company to the individual executive.

23

2018 PROXY STATEMENT

TABLE OF CONTENTS

COMPENSATION

Short-Term Compensation

Base Salary: Base salary is determined by evaluating the responsibilities of the position held, the individual’s past experience in his/her current position, current performance, future potential and the competitive marketplace for executive talent. The Company’s objective is to provide its executive officers with competitive base salaries that are, on average, at the median of the Benchmark Companies. Base salaries are reviewed annually to ensure that strong performance is reflected in any increase in an executive’s base salary level. The Committee determined that no executive officer would receive a base salary increase in 2017 in an effort to keep costs down for the Company. The following were the annual base salary levels for the Named Executive Officers in 2017.

Named Executive Officer | Base Salary in 2017
John L. Garrison | $900,000
John D. Sheehan | $650,000
Steve Filipov | $580,253
Eric I Cohen | $568,283
Matthew Fearon | $510,000

The Committee believes that the base salary ranges in 2017 for the Company’s Named Executive Officers (as defined below) were, in the aggregate, slightly below the 50th percentile of the Benchmark Companies. In part, this is a reflection of the short tenure of Mr. Garrison as CEO of the Company. Mr. Garrison’s approximately two year tenure as CEO of the Company is below the average tenure of a CEO and is a principal reason for Mr. Garrison’s base salary being below the 50th percentile of the Benchmark Companies.

Annual Incentive Program: In addition to base salary, each executive officer is eligible for an annual incentive award under the Omnibus Plan, which was adopted by the Board and approved by the stockholders of Terex in 2009 and 2013. The Committee’s objective is to provide the Company’s executive officers with an annual incentive opportunity that is competitive with annual incentive target percentage ranges for the Benchmark Companies. The goal of the management annual incentive program is to provide annual incentive opportunity and reward executives when their actions drive the overall performance of the Company. While there is downside risk to the executive in having a performance component that can result in no award, there is also an upside opportunity if the Company and the individual both perform well. This meets the Committee’s objective that superior performance that adds value to the Company and its stockholders should be rewarded and performance that does not meet expectations should have adverse consequences. For 2017, the Committee, in its sole discretion, could decrease or eliminate the payment of an annual incentive award to any Covered Employee (as defined in Section 162(m) of the Code) under certain extraordinary events in accordance with the annual incentive program.

Annual incentive payouts are based upon the Company’s performance and the executive’s individual performance, both measured against previously determined targets. The individual targets include both financial and non-financial metrics, and contain individual and Company performance

measures. Mr. Garrison’s annual incentive target for 2017 was 120% of his base salary. The annual incentive targets of the other executive officers generally range from 60% - 75% of their base salary.

The Committee believes that annual incentive target percentage ranges for the Company’s executive officers for 2017 approximate the 50th percentile of annual incentive target percentage ranges for the Benchmark Companies. As the Company’s performance was significantly above the expectations of the Committee entering 2017, annual incentive payouts, in the aggregate, were approximately 165% of the target annual incentive amounts. Due to the Company’s financial performance in 2017, the actual 2017 annual incentive payouts for each of the Named Executive Officers were above the annual incentive target percentage ranges for the Benchmark Companies. The Committee believes this is consistent with its philosophy of paying for superior performance.

In 2017, 80% of the annual incentive target for each of the Named Executive Officers was based upon financial targets determined at the overall Terex level and the other 20% was based on individual performance metrics. As in prior periods, the Committee determined that no annual incentives would be paid if the Company did not have positive net income in 2017, on an adjusted basis, so that an executive would not have received any annual incentive for achievement of individual performance targets in 2017 even if he exceeded his individual performance targets.

Named Executive Officer (Other than CEO) Annual Incentive Targets:

Quantitative Targets: As the Company had employed various performance metrics over the past few years, the Committee, with the assistance of its compensation consultant, conducted a review of the metrics used by the Company, the Benchmark Companies and other manufacturing companies, as well as the number of metrics used by such other companies. The

24

2018 PROXY STATEMENT

TABLE OF CONTENTS

COMPENSATION

Committee determined that using two performance metrics was most prevalent among both the Benchmark Companies and other manufacturing companies. It was determined that net working capital (“NWC”) and operating earnings of the Company would be the two financial metrics for the Company’s 2017 annual incentive program as they both aligned with the Company’s business strategy and goals for 2017.

The Committee increased the weighting of operating earnings in 2017 from 2016 as the Company was focused on driving operating earnings in 2017, which is why 75% of the quantitative portion of the annual incentive program was based on operating earnings. Operating earnings is calculated as net sales less cost of sales, less selling and general administrative expenses and excluding certain unusual and non-recurring items.

It was also important to the Committee that the Company focus on its working capital, which is why 25% of the

quantitative portion of the annual incentive program was based on NWC. NWC is accounts receivable plus inventory, less accounts payable and customer advances. The NWC amount was calculated on a quarterly basis and performance was measured based on how the Company performed against its annual operating plan targets.

For 2017, the quarterly targeted NWC amounts are set forth below and the targeted operating earnings was $172 million, which amounts were based upon the 2017 operating plan of the Company, approved by the Board in December 2016. The following tables indicate the correlation between the Company’s NWC, the Company’s operating earnings performance and the payout percentage of the quantitative portion of the annual incentive target:

Qualitative Targets: Individual performance for each of the executive officers can include all or any combination of segment performance, business unit performance, personal goals, as well as other financial and non-financial measurements and milestones. The CEO is responsible for determining individual performance measurements for each of his direct reports. The individual performance calculation for the executive officers, other than the CEO, is done on a holistic basis in evaluating the achievement of such goals rather than based upon a rigid formula. The difficulty in achieving the targeted goals depends on a variety of factors, some of which are in the executive’s control and some of

which are not. These targets are established annually based on the Company’s operating plan for the coming year and in conjunction with the executive’s annual review by the CEO. If the Company achieves its operating plan objectives for the year, the Committee believes the goals are attainable. Unlike the quantitative targets, the maximum payout percentage for qualitative targets is 100%, although the CEO and the Committee retain discretion to pay up to 120% on a case by case basis for extraordinary performance. This is done in an effort to increase the alignment of the executives’ interests and the Company’s stockholders.

Benefits and Perquisites: The Company previously eliminated substantially all perquisites that applied to its executive officers other than benefits which are also provided generally to all other U.S.-based salaried employees, such as Company-paid life insurance and matching contributions in the Company’s 401(k) Plan and Employee Stock Purchase Plan, medical, dental and vision plans, flexible spending accounts, long and short-term disability coverage and relocation reimbursements and payments. In addition, executive officers, as well as certain other middle management team members of the Company, may elect to defer compensation and receive matching contributions in one of the Company’s deferred compensation plans.

Generally, perquisites granted to executive officers are allocated to their income and they are required to pay income taxes on such perquisites. The Company does not provide a tax gross up on executive perquisites except as they relate to certain relocation benefits or expatriate assignments. In 2017, the Company provided a tax gross up to Mr. Filipov related to expatriate benefits relating to his assignment in Switzerland and to Mr. Sheehan in connection with his relocation to Connecticut. The Company also provides these types of expatriate benefits and tax gross ups to many middle management team members, as an inducement for team members and new hires to relocate based on the business needs of the Company.

Long-Term Incentive Compensation

One of the primary components of the Company’s long-term incentive compensation is the granting of restricted stock and/or cash awards to executive officers, including awards which have a performance-based component. Stock awards have the dual objective of helping to build stockholder value while also serving to retain and motivate the Company’s senior leadership. Long-term incentive compensation is designed to provide wealth creation for executives if stockholder value is created.

The Company’s objective is to provide its executive officers with long-term incentive awards that are generally above the median of the award level at the Benchmark Companies. Long-term incentive awards may include cash and non-cash components. When determining the size of equity awards, the Committee also believes that there is merit in taking into account the amount of equity that an executive owns in the Company, and the Committee undertook an extensive review in 2017 of the equity ownership in the Company of each of the executives. However, the overriding factor in determining the size and amount of equity grants is ensuring that grants are motivational and measurable, while providing competitive

equity grants that are determined based on grant date economic value. In 2017, the long-term incentive awards to the Named Executive Officers were, in the aggregate, above the median of the award level at the Benchmark Companies.

In 2017, the long-term compensation awards granted by the Company consisted of time based restricted stock awards and performance-based restricted stock awards. For each of the executive officers, other than Mr. Garrison, the allocation of the economic value assigned to the time and performance based components of the long-term incentive awards granted in 2017 were intended to each be approximately 50% of the total restricted stock award value. The long-term incentive award for Mr. Garrison was more heavily performance-based than that of the other executives because the Committee believes that he is the executive with the highest level of decision-making in the Company and, therefore, has the greatest potential impact on the Company’s overall performance. As a result, the Committee believes his compensation should be more heavily weighted to the Company’s overall performance than that of the other executive officers.

Long-Term Incentive Awards

John L. Garrison | 65% | 35%
John D. Sheehan | 50% | 50%

COMPENSATION

2017 Long-Term Awards: The Company’s policy is to make grants of long-term incentive awards in the first quarter of each calendar year, shortly after the Company’s prior year’s results are finalized and both the results and earnings guidance for the coming year are released publicly.

Following that policy, in March 2017, the executive officers were granted long-term incentive awards. The grants for the executives contained both time-based awards and performance-based awards. Each time-based award will vest solely on the passage of time over a three-year period, with one-third of the time-based award vesting on March 2 of each of 2018, 2019 and 2020, to the extent the executive is still employed with the Company.

Mr. Sheehan received an initial new hire grant of time-based shares worth approximately $1.6 million in early 2017. This award was a deviation from the Company’s regular compensation program, due to his appointment as the new CFO of the Company. This was a one-time sign-on grant to induce him to join the Company and align the CFO with the long-term best interests of the Company and its stockholders. It is expected that future awards to Mr. Sheehan will have a significant performance-based component, similar to his 2017 annual grant, as the Committee believes it is important that his compensation be tied to the performance of the Company.

In previous years, the performance-based awards were generally split between total shareholder return (“TSR”) and another metric such as return on invested capital (“ROIC”) or earnings per share (“EPS”). However, due to the pending merger with Konecranes, the Committee determined to use TSR as the exclusive performance metric for 2016, as ROIC and EPS for Terex alone would be difficult to measure if the Konecranes merger occurred mid-year. For 2017, the Committee reverted back to both TSR and ROIC as the performance metrics for the performance-based awards as there was no longer a pending merger with Konecranes.

The Committee determined that ROIC was an appropriate performance measure for long-term incentive awards. ROIC is one of the primary measures to assess operational performance, as it measures how effectively the Company uses money invested in its operations, and the Committee believes this is a metric that is strongly aligned with longer-term performance and decision making. ROIC highlights the level of value creation when compared to the Company’s cost of capital. The after tax measurement of ROIC is important because the Committee believes tax planning and management are important components of the Company’s overall performance.

Each long-term incentive award included two performance-based awards. The first performance-based award (the “ROIC Award”) is generally contingent upon the Company achieving a targeted ROIC in each of 2017, 2018 and 2019 (the “ROIC

Target”). For each of 2017, 2018 and/or 2019, the proportionate target amount will be received if the Company achieves its ROIC Target for such year, with the amount subject to increase or decrease for attainment above or below the ROIC Target for such year. The ROIC Target for 2017 was 6.0%. As a result of the Company’s performance, the executives earned 171% of the 2017 portion of the performance-based award. The ROIC Targets for 2018 and 2019 will be based upon the operating plan approved by the Board for the applicable year. The executive will receive 100% of the ROIC Award for a particular year if the Company achieves the ROIC Target for such year. For performance that fails to meet the ROIC Target, less than 100% of the ROIC Award will be received, with the actual payment amount corresponding directly with the level of achievement under the target (e.g., 90% achievement would result in a 75% payment, 80% achievement would result in a 50% payment, 70% achievement would result in a 25% payment and less than 70% achievement would result in no payment). Alternatively, for performance that exceeds the ROIC Target, greater than 100% of the ROIC Shares will be received, with the actual payment amount corresponding directly with the level of achievement in excess of the target (e.g., 110% achievement would result in a 125% payment, 120% achievement would result in a 150% payment, 140% achievement would result in 200% achievement and greater than 140% achievement is capped at a payment of 200%). The Committee, together with its independent consultant, did a thorough review of the long-term incentive awards granted by the Benchmark Companies. The Committee believes the Company’s performance award payout structure supports the cyclical nature of our industry and closely aligns with the threshold levels of the Benchmark Companies as it is important for the performance range to be sufficiently wide enough to reflect reasonable probability of achievement and to pay out lower amounts for lower levels of achievement.

The second performance-based award (the “TSR Award”) is contingent upon the Company achieving a percentile rank of 50th (the “TSR Target”) against the Benchmark Companies for three year annualized total stockholder return (“TSR”) for the period January 1, 2017 through December 31, 2019. TSR combines share price appreciation and dividends paid to measure the total return to shareholders. TSR is calculated by adding the change in a company’s stock price during a specified time period to any dividends paid by such company during the time period and dividing that sum by the stock price of such company at the beginning of the period. The executive will receive 100% of the TSR Shares if the Company achieves the TSR Target for each of the measurement periods. For attainment at or above the 80th percentile, the amount of shares to be received will be capped at 200% of the TSR Shares. If attainment is at the 30th percentile, the amount of shares to be received will be 25% of the TSR Shares. For performance below the 30th percentile, no shares will be

received. For each percentile increase or decrease in attainment above or below the TSR Target, the amount of shares to be received will increase or decrease in a straight line between the above stated performance levels. The Committee, together with its independent consultant, did a thorough review of the TSR awards granted by the Benchmark Companies. The Committee believes the Company’s performance award payout structure for the TSR awards supports the cyclical nature of our industry and closely aligns with the threshold, target and maximum levels of the Benchmark Companies as it is

important for the performance range to be sufficiently wide enough to reflect reasonable probability of achievement and to pay out lower amounts for lower levels of achievement.

The Committee believes that the three year period for these awards and these performance metrics helps motivate long-term decision making and better aligns the interests of the executives and the Company’s stockholders. No shares earned prior to the end of the three-year period are paid out until after the end of the three-year period.

Post-Employment Compensation

Retirement Plans and Life Insurance: The Company offers a variety of mechanisms for its executive officers to plan for their retirement. These plans are offered to attract and retain executive officers by offering them benefits similar to those offered by the Benchmark Companies. The retirement plans offered by the Company to its executive officers generally include a 401(k) plan, which is also offered to most of the Company’s U.S. based employees, a deferred compensation plan, an ERISA excess plan, a defined benefit supplemental executive retirement plan (“DB SERP”) and a defined contribution supplemental executive retirement plan (“DC SERP”, and together with the DB SERP, the “SERPs”). The DB SERP is closed to new participants. A senior executive participating in the DB SERP is not eligible to participate in the DC SERP. The SERP benefit for Mr. Bradley shall be funded in an irrevocable rabbi trust. See “Pension Benefits” for a description of the SERPs and “Nonqualified Deferred Compensation” for a description of the Company’s deferred compensation plan.

In addition, each executive officer receives a life insurance benefit that provides his or her family with a core level of security in case of the premature death of the executive

officer. The Company provides each executive officer with a group life insurance benefit that is approximately two times his or her base salary, up to a maximum of $900,000.

Termination of Employment and Change in Control Arrangements: Each of the Named Executive Officers is a party to a Change in Control and Severance Agreement with the Company (collectively, the “Executive Agreements”). The Company does not have any agreements that contain excise tax gross ups.

The Executive agreements provide the executive officers with a core level of assurance that their actions on behalf of the Company and its stockholders can proceed without the potential distraction of short-term issues that may affect the Company (e.g., merger, buyout, etc.) and helps ensure that they continue to act in the best interests of the Company. In addition, these agreements contain measures that protect the Company as well, such as confidentiality, non-compete and non-solicitation provisions. The key terms of these agreements are generally customary provisions for agreements of this type and are described below in “Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control.”

| (3) | The amounts listed in the Stock Awards column are the aggregate grant date fair value amounts computed in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 718. The amounts listed in the Stock Awards column include awards that are subject to performance conditions. For the 2017 awards, if the maximum performance is achieved, the stock award amounts for Messrs. Garrison, Sheehan, Cohen, Filipov and Fearon would be $12,218,697, $4,604,784, $2,006,191, $2,045,528 and $1,730,831, respectively.

| (4) | The 2017, 2016 and 2015 amounts for Messrs. Cohen and Filipov (2017 and 2016 amounts for Messrs. Garrison and Fearon, 2016 and 2015 amounts for Mr. Bradley and 2017 amount for Mr. Sheehan), as applicable, reflect annual incentive awards earned during fiscal years 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively, under the Omnibus Plan.

| (5) | The amount in this column for Messrs. Cohen and Filipov reflects the actuarial increase in the present value of their benefits under all defined benefit pension plans. The present value of the benefits under all defined benefit pension plans for Mr. Bradley for 2017 was $(493,843) and is reflected as $0 in accordance with SEC rules. The amount in this column for Mr. Bradley for 2016 and 2015 reflects the actuarial increase in the present value of their benefits under all defined benefit pension plans. No Named Executive Officer received preferential or above-market earnings on deferred compensation in 2017, except for Messrs. Garrison and Fearon who received $107 and $655, respectively, in earnings that were above-market or preferential.

target and maximum amounts for awards under the annual incentive bonus program that were paid in March 2018, based on performance in 2017. Thus, the amounts shown in the “threshold, target and maximum” columns reflect the range of potential payouts when the target award levels were established in the first quarter of 2017. The actual amounts paid pursuant to those awards are reflected in the “Non-Equity Incentive Plan Compensation” column of the Summary Compensation Table.

| (2) | The amounts reflected in the “Estimated Future Payouts Under Equity Incentive Plan Awards” columns represent the threshold, target and maximum amounts for performance share awards granted in 2017. The first performance share award is subject to the Company achieving certain ROIC targets and the second performance share award is subject to the Company achieving certain TSR targets. The performance share awards pay $0 for performance below threshold. These performance shares will vest in full in 2020 if the target performance criteria are satisfied. For a description of the process for determining target award levels and the terms of the performance share awards, please refer to “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” under the heading “Long-Term Incentive Compensation.” Upon the earliest to occur of certain changes in control of the Company or the death or disability of the recipient of the grant, any unvested portion of such performance shares shall vest immediately. Dividends, if any, are paid on earned performance shares at the same rate as paid to all stockholders.

| (3) | The amounts in this column reflect the time-based restricted stock awards granted in 2017. For a description of the process for determining award levels and the terms of such awards, see “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” under the heading “Long-Term Incentive Compensation.” Upon the earliest to occur of certain changes in control of the Company or the death or disability of the recipient of the grant, any unvested portion of such restricted stock award shall vest immediately. Dividends, if any, are paid on restricted stock awards at the same rate as paid to all stockholders.

| (4) | The grant date fair value of the equity awards granted in 2017 was calculated in accordance with ASC 718. For a description of the assumptions made in valuing the equity awards see Note Q – “Stockholders’ Equity” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017.

The SERPs are intended to provide certain senior executives of the Company with retirement benefits in recognition of their contributions to the long-term growth of the Company. The DB SERP is closed to new participants. A senior executive participating in the DB SERP is not eligible to participate in the DC SERP.

Participants in the DB SERP with ten or more years of eligible service are vested and entitled to annual pension benefits beginning at a normal retirement age (“NRA”) of 65 or when age plus years of service first equal 90 (the “Normal Retirement Benefit”). Participants in the DB SERP who are vested but terminate employment prior to NRA shall receive a retirement benefit that is equal to the actuarial equivalent of the Normal Retirement Benefit.

The compensation covered by the DB SERP is generally based on a participant’s final five-year average of annual salary and bonus. Benefits are computed assuming an NRA of 65 or when age plus years of service first equal 90. Benefits accrue at 2% of average compensation per year of service, payable at the NRA, up to a maximum of 20 years of service.

Benefits are payable monthly as a life annuity with 120 monthly payments guaranteed. Benefits are reduced by 50% for Social Security or similar payments and 100% for any other Company-paid defined benefit retirement benefits.

Participants in the DC SERP with ten or more years of eligible service are vested and entitled to contributions made by the Company to their DC SERP account. Annual contributions are based upon 10% of the participant’s base salary and bonus earned. Until June 23, 2017, the Company credited contributions in the DC SERP with an interest rate equal to a bond fund that mirrors an investment strategy in corporate bonds of companies rated Baa or higher by Moody’s. The annual rate of interest for that period in 2017 was 3.86%. After June 23, 2017, DC SERP accounts were invested in the Baird Core Plus Bond Fund (Institutional Class). Benefits are payable in a lump sum payout following termination of employment.

See Note P – “Retirement Plans and Other Benefits” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 for a detailed description of the assumptions that the Company uses in determining the present value of the accumulated benefit.

Under the Deferred Compensation Plan or ERISA Excess Plan, a Named Executive Officer may defer up to (i) 20% of his/her salary and (ii) 100% of his/her bonus (participants may not defer salary and/or bonus amounts in the same year to both the Deferred Compensation Plan and the ERISA Excess Plan). The deferrals in the Deferred Compensation Plan may be invested in Common Stock or in a bond index and deferrals in the ERISA Excess Plan may be invested in a

number of investment options that generally mirror the investment options of the Company’s 401(k) Plan. Until June 23, 2017, the Company credited the deferrals in the Deferred Compensation Plan bond index with an interest rate equal to a bond fund that mirrors an investment strategy in corporate bonds of companies rated Baa or higher by Moody’s. The annual rate of interest for that period in 2017 was 3.86%. After June 23, 2017, the Deferred Compensation Plan bond

deferrals were invested in the Baird Core Plus Bond Fund (Institutional Class). For Deferred Compensation Plan deferrals, the Company makes a contribution of 25% of the Named Executive Officer’s salary and/or bonus that is deferred and invested in Common Stock. For ERISA Excess Plan deferrals, the Company makes a contribution of 100% of the Named Executive Officer’s salary and/or bonus that is deferred to the extent such deferral does not exceed 5% of salary and bonus. The Company does not make a contribution with respect to any deferrals into the Deferred Compensation Plan bond fund. Participants in the Deferred Compensation Plan and ERISA Excess Plan are always fully vested in their deferrals and any matching contributions received. See “Pension Benefits” above for details on the DC SERP, including its vesting schedule.

The Named Executive Officers may receive payments under the Deferred Compensation Plan and ERISA Excess Plan

after their employment terminates, upon their death or if they have an unforeseeable emergency (as defined in the Deferred Compensation Plan).

In addition, participants in the Deferred Compensation Plan may elect to receive all or a portion of their deferral, including the Company’s matching contribution, after the deferral has been in the Deferred Compensation Plan for at least three years. Furthermore, for deferrals made prior to December 31, 2004, if they elect to receive an accelerated distribution under the Deferred Compensation Plan, the Named Executive Officers shall (i) forfeit 10% of the amount of the distribution to the Company, (ii) forfeit any Company matching contribution that has not been in the plan for at least one year due to the accelerated distribution and (iii) be unable to make further deferrals into the plan for at least 12 months. In accordance with Section 409A of the Code, accelerated distributions are not allowed under the Deferred Compensation Plan for any deferrals made after December 31, 2004.

Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control

Pursuant to the Executive Agreements as of December 31, 2017, if an executive’s employment with the Company is terminated within six months of a Change in Control (as defined in the Executive Agreements) in anticipation of such Change in Control or within 24 months following a Change in Control, other than for Cause, by reason of death or Permanent Disability or by the executive without Good Reason (each as defined in the Executive Agreements), the executive is to receive (i) two times his base salary, (ii) two times his annual bonus for the last calendar year preceding termination, and (iii) any accrued vacation pay. This payment is to be paid in a lump sum simultaneously with the executive’s termination or on a monthly basis. In addition, the executive also will receive (a) immediate vesting of unvested stock options, stock grants and cash performance awards, with a period of up to six months following termination to exercise such options, (b) continuing insurance coverage for 24 months from termination, (c) continuation of all other benefits in effect at the time of termination for 24 months from termination and (d) outplacement services for a period of at least 12 months from termination.

In the event an executive’s employment with the Company is terminated by the Company without Cause or by the executive for Good Reason (other than in connection with a Change in Control), the Company is to pay the executive (i) two times his base salary, (ii) two times his annual bonus for the last calendar year preceding termination and (iii) any accrued vacation pay. This amount is to be paid in 24 equal monthly payments. In such event, the executive would also have the right to exercise any stock options, long-term incentive awards or similar awards for up to six months following termination, and would immediately vest in non-performance

based options and stock awards granted under the Company’s incentive plans that would vest in the 24 months following the date of termination. In addition, the Company would also provide continuing insurance coverage, continuation of all other benefits in effect at the time of termination for 24 months from termination and outplacement services for a period of at least 12 months from termination.

As part of the Executive Agreements, the executives agree to keep confidential certain Company information and not to disparage the Company. In addition, Messrs. Garrison and Sheehan agree that, for a period of 24 months (Messrs. Filipov and Fearon for 18 months), following the date of termination (or 24 months for Messrs. Filipov and Fearon following such termination, if such termination is within 24 months following a Change in Control), the executive will not, without the prior written consent of the Company, directly or indirectly engage in or render any services to any Competitive Business (as such term is defined in the Executive Agreements) nor solicit, induce or entice any employee of the Company to leave the Company.

Each Executive Agreement has an initial term of one year and automatically renews for an additional term of one year commencing on each anniversary of the date of the agreement until and unless either party sends written notice of non-renewal to the other party at least six months prior to a renewal date; provided, however, that if a Change in Control shall occur during the initial or renewed term of such agreement, then the Executive Agreement remains in effect until the third anniversary of the date of the Change in Control.

CEO Pay Ratio

For 2017, the median annual total compensation of all employees of the Company (other than the CEO), was $52,512. The annual total compensation of the Company’s CEO was $11,206,482. Based on this information, the ratio of the annual total compensation of the Company’s CEO to the median of the annual total compensation of all employees was approximately 213 to 1.

In order to determine the median employee from a compensation perspective, the Company used cash salary paid in the 2017 calendar year for all employees worldwide employed as of December 21, 2017. Salary amounts were annualized for all employees who were hired after January 1, 2017. For those employees compensated in foreign currencies, average exchange rates for the full year 2017 were used to convert their

compensation into U.S. dollars. The Company determined that its median employee from a compensation perspective is employed in one of its manufacturing locations in the United States. To determine the ratio disclosed above, the Company calculated the median employee’s compensation for fiscal 2017 in accordance with the rules applicable to the compensation elements included in the Summary Compensation Table and compared such compensation to the compensation of the Company’s CEO, as reported in the Summary Compensation Table.

Given the different methodologies that various public companies will use to determine an estimate of their pay ratios, the estimated ratio reported above should not be used as a basis for comparison between companies.

APPROVAL OF THE TEREX CORPORATION 2018 OMNIBUS INCENTIVE PLAN

PROPOSAL 3: APPROVAL OF THE TEREX CORPORATION 2018 OMNIBUS INCENTIVE PLAN

General

Stockholders are being asked to approve the Terex Corporation 2018 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “2018 Plan”). The purpose of the 2018 Plan is to assist the Company in attracting and retaining selected individuals to serve as employees, directors, officers, consultants and advisors of the Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates who will contribute to the Company’s success and to achieve long-term objectives which will inure to the benefit of all stockholders of the Company through the additional incentive inherent in the ownership of the Common Stock. The 2018 Plan authorizes the granting of (i) options (“Options”) to purchase shares of Common Stock (“Shares”), (ii) stock appreciation rights (“SARs”), (iii) restricted stock awards (“RSAs”), (iv) restricted stock units (“RSUs”), (v) other stock awards (“OSAs”), (vi) cash awards and (vii) performance awards. The cash awards under the 2018 Plan will be utilized, in conjunction with the performance awards, for incentive compensation in the form of an annual

bonus award and in certain circumstances, long-term performance awards to key executives responsible for the success of the Company. The Board believes that such incentive compensation can help to attract and retain outstanding executives.

The Board adopted the 2018 Plan on March 9, 2018, and directed that the 2018 Plan be submitted to the stockholders of the Company for their approval. Approval of the granting of equity awards under the 2018 Plan will require the affirmative vote of a majority of the Shares present in person or by proxy at the Meeting, provided that the total votes cast on this proposal represent over 50% of the total number of Shares entitled to vote on this proposal.

The following description of the 2018 Plan is qualified in its entirety by reference to the 2018 Plan, attached to this Proxy as Appendix A.

Common Stock Authorized

As of March 16, 2018 there were 3.1 million Shares subject to outstanding stock awards under the 2009 Plan in the form of RSAs and RSUs and 1.5 million Shares available for issuance under the 2009 Plan.

The maximum number of Shares that may be the subject of awards under the 2018 Plan is 1,200,000 Shares, plus the number of Shares remaining available for issuance under the 2009 Plan that are not subject to outstanding awards as of the date of stockholder approval, and the number of Shares subject to awards outstanding under the 2009 Plan as of such date but only to the extent that such outstanding awards are forfeited, expire, or otherwise terminate without the issuance of such Shares. Under the 2018 Plan, Shares covered by RSAs, RSUs and OSAs shall only be counted as used to the extent that they are actually issued. Accordingly, RSAs, RSUs or OSAs forfeited by participants and Shares subject to any RSAs, RSUs or OSAs that are otherwise surrendered by a participant without receiving any payment or other benefit with respect thereto, or are settled in cash in lieu of Shares, or

are exchanged with the Committee’s permission, prior to the issuance of Shares may again be subject to new awards. However, Shares covered by any unexercised portions of terminated Options or SARs, Options or SARs forfeited by participants and Shares subject to any Options or SARs that are otherwise surrendered by a participant without receiving any payment or other benefit with respect thereto, or are settled in cash in lieu of Shares, or are exchanged with the Committee’s permission, prior to the issuance of Shares may not again be subject to new awards.

Participants, except non-executive Directors, may not be granted in any fiscal year awards for more than a total of 750,000 Shares under the 2018 Plan. Non-executive director participants may not be granted in any fiscal year Shares worth more than $600,000 under the 2018 Plan. The Shares to be issued or delivered under the 2018 Plan are authorized and unissued Shares, or issued Shares that have been acquired by the Company, or both.

2018 PROXY STATEMENT

TABLE OF CONTENTS

APPROVAL OF THE TEREX CORPORATION 2018 OMNIBUS INCENTIVE PLAN

2018 Plan Administration

The 2018 Plan provides that the Compensation Committee of the Board or a subcommittee thereof, or any other committee designated by the Board (the “Plan Committee”) consisting of not fewer than two members of the Board who are non employee-directors and outside directors shall administer the 2018 Plan. The Plan Committee is authorized, subject to the provisions of the 2018 Plan, to establish such rules and regulations as it may deem appropriate for the proper administration of the 2018 Plan. Subject to the provisions of the 2018 Plan, the Plan Committee shall have authority, in its sole discretion, to grant awards under the 2018 Plan, to set

performance goals in conjunction with any award, and to make determinations with respect to the achievement of performance goals, to interpret and construe the provisions of the 2018 Plan and, subject to the requirements of applicable law, to prescribe, amend and rescind rules and regulations relating to the 2018 Plan or any award thereunder as it may deem necessary or advisable. In general, the Plan Committee may delegate to one or more of its members or to one or more officers of the Company the right to grant awards under the 2018 Plan on such terms and conditions as the Plan Committee may from time to time establish.

Eligibility

Officers, employees, directors, consultants, advisors and independent contractors of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates as the Plan Committee shall select from time to time are eligible to receive awards under the

2018 Plan. As of March 1, 2018, approximately 11,000 people would be eligible to participate under the terms of the 2018 Plan and approximately 500 people had outstanding awards under the 2009 Plan.

Minimum Vesting

There is a minimum vesting period for all awards under the 2018 Plan of one year, provided that up to 5% of the awards

under the 2018 Plan are not required to have a minimum vesting period.

Stock Option Awards

Options to be granted under the 2018 Plan may be “Incentive Stock Options” meeting the requirements of Section 422 of the Code or “Non-Qualified Stock Options” that do not meet such requirements. Only employees of the Company or certain of its subsidiaries may receive Incentive Stock Options under the 2018 Plan. The Plan Committee must grant Options to purchase Shares at a price per share not less than 100% of

the fair market value of such Share on the date of grant of such Option. For so long as the Common Stock is listed on the NYSE, fair market value is the closing price of a Share on the NYSE on the trading day of the date of the award. The term of each Option will be determined by the Plan Committee, but generally will not exceed ten years from the date of grant.

SARs

The 2018 Plan provides that SARs may be granted to participants in the discretion of the Plan Committee. The Plan Committee may grant SARs at a price per share not less than 100% of the fair market value of a Share on the date of grant of such SAR. Upon the exercise of a SAR, the recipient is entitled to receive from the Company, without the payment of any cash (except for any applicable withholding taxes), up to,

but no more than, an amount in cash or Shares determined by multiplying the (A) excess of the fair market value of a Share on the date of such exercise over the grant price, by (B) the number of Shares with respect to which the SAR is exercised. The term of each SAR will be determined by the Plan Committee, but generally will not exceed ten years from the date of grant.

Restricted Stock Awards and Restricted Stock Units

The grant of an RSA gives a participant the right to receive Shares, subject to a risk of forfeiture based upon certain conditions, such as performance standards, length of service

or other criteria as the Plan Committee may determine. Until all restrictions are satisfied, lapsed or waived, the Company will maintain custody over the restricted Shares but the

participant may be able to vote the Shares and may be entitled to receive unvested dividends or distributions with respect to the Shares, which dividends or distributions shall vest when the underlying RSA vests. During such restrictive period, the restricted Shares may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise encumbered, other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution. If a participant terminates employment with the Company prior to expiration of the

forfeiture period, the participant forfeits all rights to the Shares. The Company also may grant RSUs under the 2018 Plan. The grant of RSUs generally operates in the same manner as the grant of restricted stock, except that no Shares are actually awarded on the date of grant and the participant shall have no voting rights with respect to any RSUs granted under the 2018 Plan and shall not be entitled to distributions paid on the Shares with respect to any RSUs.

Performance Awards

The Plan Committee may grant, either alone or in addition to other awards granted under the 2018 Plan, performance awards based upon performance of the Company or the participant. Performance awards entitle the participant to receive cash, Options, SARs, RSAs, RSUs or any other form

of equity as the Plan Committee shall determine, if such participant achieves the measures of performance or other criteria established by the Plan Committee in its absolute discretion.

Cash-Based Awards and Other Stock-Based Awards

The Plan Committee may grant, either alone or in addition to other awards granted under the 2018 Plan, cash-based awards and other stock-based awards as determined by the Plan Committee. Such awards may be subject to performance goals and may be designed to comply with or take advantage of the laws of jurisdictions other than the United States. Cash

awards under the 2018 Plan will be utilized, in conjunction with the performance awards, for incentive compensation in the form of an annual bonus award and in certain circumstances, long-term performance awards to key executives responsible for the success of the Company.

Amendment and Termination

The Board may amend or modify the 2018 Plan, subject to any required stockholder approval. The Board may not amend the 2018 Plan to increase the number of Shares that may be the subject of awards under the 2018 Plan (other than for antidilution adjustments) without the approval of the Company’s stockholders. The 2018 Plan will terminate by its

terms and without any further action on the tenth anniversary of stockholder approval of the 2018 Plan. No awards may be made after that date under the 2018 Plan, although awards outstanding under the 2018 Plan on such date will remain valid in accordance with their terms.

Antidilution Adjustments

The number of Shares authorized to be issued under the 2018 Plan and subject to outstanding awards (and the grant or exercise price thereof) may be adjusted to prevent dilution or enlargement of rights in the event of any dividend or other distribution, recapitalization, stock split, reverse stock split,

reorganization, merger, consolidation, split-up, spin-off, combination, repurchase or exchange of Shares or other securities, the issuance of warrants or other rights to purchase Shares or other securities, or other similar capitalization change.

Federal Income Tax Consequences of Options

The following is a brief summary of certain of the federal income tax consequences of certain transactions under the 2018 Plan based on federal income tax laws currently in effect. This summary is not intended to be exhaustive and does not describe state, local or foreign tax consequences.

Tax Consequences to Participants

Non-Qualified Stock Options. In general: (i) no income will be recognized by an optionee at the time a Non-Qualified Stock Option is granted; (ii) at the time of exercise of a Non-Qualified Stock Option, ordinary income will be

45

2018 PROXY STATEMENT

TABLE OF CONTENTS

APPROVAL OF THE TEREX CORPORATION 2018 OMNIBUS INCENTIVE PLAN

recognized by the optionee in an amount equal to the difference between the option price paid for the Shares and the fair market value of the Shares if they are non-restricted on the date of exercise; and (iii) at the time of sale of Shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of a Non-Qualified Stock Option, any appreciation (or depreciation) in the value of the Shares after the date of exercise will be treated as either short-term or long-term capital gain (or loss) depending on how long the Shares have been held.

Incentive Stock Options. No income generally will be recognized by an optionee upon the grant or exercise of an Incentive Stock Option. For purposes of the alternative minimum tax, however, the difference between the option price and the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date of exercise is an adjustment in computing the optionee’s alternative minimum taxable income. If Shares are issued to an optionee pursuant to the exercise of an Incentive Stock Option and no disposition of the Shares is made by the optionee within two years after the date of grant or within one year after the transfer of the Shares to the optionee (such disposition, a “Disqualifying Disposition”), then upon the sale of the Shares any amount realized in excess of the option price will be taxed to the optionee as long-term capital gain and any loss sustained will be a long-term capital loss.

If Shares acquired upon the exercise of an Incentive Stock Option are disposed of in a Disqualifying Disposition, then the optionee generally will recognize ordinary income in the year of disposition in an amount equal to any excess of the

fair market value of the Shares at the time of exercise (or, if less, the amount realized on the disposition of the Shares in a sale or exchange) over the option price paid for the Shares.

Special Rules Applicable to Directors and Officers. In limited circumstances where the sale of Common Stock that is received as the result of a grant of an award could subject a director or an officer to suit under Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act, the tax consequences to the director or officer may differ from the tax consequences described above.

Tax Consequences to the Company or Subsidiary

To the extent that a participant recognizes ordinary income in the circumstances described above, or with respect to performance based compensation payable under the 2018 Plan, the Company or subsidiary for which the participant performs services will be entitled to a corresponding deduction provided that, among other things, (i) such deduction is reasonable in amount, constitutes an ordinary and necessary business expense, is not subject to the $1,000,000 annual compensation limitation set forth in Section 162(m) of the Code and does not constitute an “excess parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code, and (ii) any applicable withholding obligations are satisfied.

The foregoing summary of the income tax consequences in respect of the 2018 Plan is for general information only. Interested parties should consult their own advisors as to specific tax consequences, including the application and effect of foreign, state, and local tax laws.

Grants Under the 2018 Plan

Because the 2018 Plan is a new plan and because benefits under the 2018 Plan will depend on the discretion of the Plan Committee and the fair market value of the Common Stock at various future dates, it is not possible to determine the benefits that will be received if the 2018 Plan is approved by stockholders. In addition, because the payment of a bonus under the 2018 Plan for any fiscal year is contingent on the achievement of performance goals as of the end of the fiscal year, the Company cannot determine the amounts that will be payable or allocable for fiscal year 2018 or in the future.

During 2017 under the 2009 Plan, Options and restricted stock awards were granted as follows:

| • | Restricted stock awards for 448,104 Shares were granted to the Named Executive Officers (one of whom was also a director) as a group. For more details on these grants, including the allocation of restricted stock awards among the Named Executive Officers, see “Executive Compensation – Summary Compensation Table” and “Executive Compensation – Grants of Plan-Based Awards.”

| • | Restricted stock awards for 120,397 Shares were granted to all current executive officers of the Company (not including the Named Executive Officers) as a group.

| • | Restricted stock awards for 37,937 Shares were granted to any directors (not including one director who was also a Named Executive Officers) as a group.

| • | Restricted stock awards for 835,632 Shares were granted to all employees of the Company (not including all current executive officers and Named Executive Officers of the Company) as a group.

No Options or SARs were granted under the Omnibus Plan during 2017.

For details on the bonuses received in 2017 pursuant to the 2009 Plan by the Named Executive Officers, see “Executive Compensation – Summary Compensation Table” and “Compensation Discussion and Analysis –Annual Incentive Program.”

AUDIT

PROPOSAL 4: RATIFICATION OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The firm of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP has audited the consolidated financial statements and the internal control over financial reporting of the Company for 2017. The Board, at the recommendation of the Audit Committee, desires to continue the service of this firm for 2018. Accordingly, the Board recommends to the stockholders ratification of the retention of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2018. If the stockholders do not

approve PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, the Board and the Audit Committee will reconsider this selection.

Representatives of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP are expected to be present at the Meeting with the opportunity to make a statement if they desire to do so, and they are expected to be available to respond to appropriate questions.

Audit Fees

During the last two fiscal years ended December 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP charged the Company $7,451,000 and $10,850,000, respectively, for professional services rendered by such firm for the audit of the Company’s annual financial statements and internal control over financial reporting, review of the Company’s

financial statements included in the Company’s quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for that fiscal year, procedures related to the filing of a Registration Statement on Form S-3 in 2017 and the related Form 8-K and comfort letter procedures related to a debt offering.

Audit-Related Fees

Audit-related fees consist of fees for assurance and related services that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit or review of the Company’s financial statements. This category includes fees related to services around the Company’s implementation of a new financial accounting and reporting

standard and fees for the audit of dispositions. The aggregate fees billed by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP for such audit-related services for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 were $170,000 and $75,000, respectively.

Tax Fees

The aggregate fees billed for tax services provided by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP in connection with tax compliance and tax consulting services for the fiscal years

ended December 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 were $201,000 and $884,000, respectively.

All Other Fees

The aggregate fees billed for services not included in the above services for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 were $4,000 and $9,000, respectively, and were primarily related to miscellaneous items. All of the services related to the Audit-Related Fees, Tax Fees or All Other Fees described above were approved by the Audit Committee pursuant to the general pre-approval provisions set forth in the Audit Committee’s pre-approval policies described in “Audit Committee Meetings and Responsibilities.”

AUDIT

Audit Committee Report

The Audit Committee of the Board has reviewed and discussed the Company’s audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017 with the management of the Company and the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP. The Audit Committee has discussed with PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP the matters required to be discussed by Public Company Accounting Oversight Board Auditing Standard No. 16. The Audit Committee also has received the written disclosures and the letter from the independent registered public accounting firm required by applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding the independent registered public accounting firm’s communications with the Audit Committee concerning independence and has discussed with PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP the independence of such independent registered public accounting firm. The Audit Committee also has considered whether PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP’s provision of non-audit services to the Company is compatible with the independent registered public accounting firm’s independence.

Based on its review and discussions referred to in the preceding paragraph, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board that the audited financial statements for the Company’s fiscal year ended December 31, 2017 be included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the Company’s fiscal year ended December 31, 2017 for filing with the SEC.

The Audit Committee’s responsibility is to monitor and oversee the audit and financial reporting processes. However, the members of the Audit Committee are not practicing certified public accountants or professional auditors and rely, without independent verification, on the information provided to them and on the representations made by management, and on the report issued by the independent registered public accounting firm.

Article 1. Establishment, Purpose, and Duration

1.1 Establishment. Terex Corporation, a Delaware corporation (hereinafter referred to as the “Company”), establishes an incentive compensation plan to be known as the Terex Corporation 2018 Omnibus Incentive Plan (hereinafter referred to as the “Plan”), as set forth in this document. This Plan permits the grant of Nonqualified Stock Options, Incentive Stock Options, Stock Appreciation Rights, Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units, Performance Shares, Performance Units, Cash-Based Awards, and Other Stock-Based Awards. This Plan shall become effective upon stockholder approval (the “Effective Date”) and shall remain in effect as provided in Section 1.3 hereof.

1.2 Purpose of This Plan. The purpose of this Plan is to provide a means whereby Employees, Directors, and Third-Party Service Providers of the Company develop a sense of proprietorship and personal involvement in the development and financial success of the Company, and to

encourage them to devote their best efforts to the business of the Company, thereby advancing the interests of the Company and its stockholders. A further purpose of this Plan is to provide a means through which the Company may attract able individuals to become Employees or serve as Directors or Third-Party Service Providers of the Company and to provide a means whereby those individuals upon whom the responsibilities of the successful administration and management of the Company are of importance can acquire and maintain stock ownership, thereby strengthening their concern for the welfare of the Company.

Options granted under this Article 6 shall be exercised by the delivery of a notice of exercise to the Company or an agent designated by the Company in a form specified or accepted by the Committee, or by complying with any alternative procedures which may be authorized by the Committee, setting forth the number of Shares with respect to which the Option is to be exercised, accompanied by full payment for the Shares. A condition of the issuance of the Shares as to which an Option shall be exercised shall be the payment of the Option Price. The Option Price of any exercised Option shall be payable to the Company in accordance with one of the following methods:

Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, all payments under all of the methods indicated above shall be paid in United States dollars or Shares, as applicable.

6.7 Termination of Employment. Each Participant’s Award Agreement may set forth the extent to which the Participant shall have the right to exercise the Option following termination of the Participant’s employment or provision of services to the Company or any Affiliate or Subsidiary, as the case may be. Such provisions shall be determined in the sole discretion of the Committee, shall be included in the Award Agreement entered into with each Participant, need not be uniform among all Options issued pursuant to this Article 6, and may reflect distinctions based on the reasons for termination. In the absence of a specific provision in a Participant’s Award Agreement, in the event of the termination of employment of a Participant or the termination or separation from service of a Third-Party Service Provider or a Director for any reason (other than by reason of death, Disability or Change in Control), the term of any Options granted to such Participant outstanding and vested as of the date of (or as a result of) such termination or separation, shall expire six (6) months after the date of such termination or separation, provided, however, that in no instance may the term of an Award, as so extended, extend beyond the end of the original

term of the Award Agreement. Except as otherwise provided by the Committee, any unvested options held by such Participant under this Plan shall be forfeited upon such termination or separation.

| (d) | Right to Exercise. Any ISO granted to a Participant under the Plan shall be exercisable during his or her lifetime solely by such Participant.

| (e) | Exercise Period. The period during which a Participant may exercise an ISO shall not exceed ten (10) years (five (5) years in the case of a Participant who is a 10% Owner) from the date on which the ISO was granted.

| (h) | Duration of Plan. No Incentive Stock Options may be granted more than ten (10) years after the earlier of: (i) adoption of this Plan by the Board, or (ii) the Effective Date.

Each Other Stock-Based Award shall be expressed in terms of Shares or units based on Shares, as determined by the Committee. The Committee may establish performance goals in its discretion. If the Committee exercises its discretion to establish performance goals, the number and/or value of Cash-Based Awards or Other Stock-Based Awards that will be paid out to the Participant will depend on the extent to which the performance goals are met.

10.4 Payment of Cash-Based Awards and Other Stock-Based Awards. Payment, if any, with respect to a Cash-Based Award or an Other Stock-Based Award shall be made in accordance with the terms of the Award, in cash or Shares as the Committee determines. In the absence of an Award Agreement or a specific provision in a Participant’s Award Agreement to the contrary, no Participant shall have any right to receive payment of any Cash-Based Award or Other Stock-Based Award unless such Participant remains in the employ of the Company at the time of payment of such Award.

10.5 Termination of Employment. The Committee shall determine the extent to which the Participant shall have the right to receive Cash-Based Awards or Other Stock-Based Awards following termination of the Participant’s employment with or provision of services to the Company or any Affiliate or Subsidiary, as the case may be. Such provisions shall be determined in the sole discretion of the Committee, such provisions may be included in an agreement entered into with each Participant, but need not be uniform among all Awards of Cash-Based Awards or Other Stock-Based Awards issued pursuant to the Plan, and may reflect distinctions based on the reasons for termination. In the absence of an Award Agreement or a specific provision in a Participant’s Award Agreement, in the event of a Participant’s termination of employment or separation from service for any reason (other than by reason of death, Disability or Change in Control), any unvested Cash-Based Awards or Other Stock-Based Awards granted to such Participant under this Plan shall be forfeited upon such termination or separation.

Article 11. Transferability of Awards and Shares

11.1 Transferability of Awards. Except as provided in Section 6.8(j) and Section 11.2, during a Participant’s lifetime, his or her Awards shall be exercisable only by the Participant. Awards shall not be transferable other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution or pursuant to a domestic relation order entered into by a court of competent jurisdiction; no Awards shall be subject, in whole or in part, to attachment, execution, or levy of any kind; and any purported transfer in violation of this Section 11.1 shall be null and void; provided, however, Options or SARs that have vested may be transferred to a charitable organization or a Family Member of such Participant. The Committee may establish such procedures as it deems appropriate for a Participant to designate a beneficiary to whom any amounts payable or Shares deliverable in the event of, or following, the Participant’s death may be provided. For purposes of this provision, Family Member means any child, stepchild, grandchild, parent, stepparent, grandparent, spouse, former spouse, sibling, niece, nephew, mother-in-law, father-in-law, son-in-law, daughter-in-law, brother-in-law, or sister-in-law, including adoptive relationships, any person sharing the employee's household (other than a tenant or employee), a trust in which these persons have more than 50% of the

beneficial interest, a foundation in which these persons (or the Participant) control the management of assets, and any other entity in which these persons (or the Participant) own more than 50% of the voting interests.

11.2 Committee Action. Except as provided in Section 6.8(j), the Committee may, in its discretion, determine that notwithstanding Section 11.1, any or all Awards shall be transferable to and exercisable by such transferees, and be subject to such terms and conditions as the Committee may deem appropriate; provided, however, no Award may be transferred for value without stockholder approval.

11.3 Restrictions on Share Transferability. The Committee may impose such restrictions on any Shares acquired by a Participant under the Plan as it may deem advisable, including, without limitation, minimum holding period requirements, restrictions under applicable federal securities laws, under the requirements of any stock exchange or market upon which such Shares are then listed or traded, or under any blue sky or state securities laws applicable to such Shares.

Article 14. Dividend Equivalents

Any Participant selected by the Committee may be granted Dividend Equivalents based on the dividends declared on Shares that are subject to any Award, to be credited as of dividend payment dates, during the period between the date the Award is granted and the date the Award is exercised, vests, or expires, provided that in no circumstance will a Participant vest in a dividend or a Dividend Equivalent prior to the vesting of the underlying Award.

Each such designation shall revoke all prior designations by the same Participant, shall be in a form prescribed by the Committee, and will be effective only when

filed by the Participant in writing with the Company during the Participant’s lifetime. In the absence of any such beneficiary designation, benefits remaining unpaid or rights remaining unexercised at the Participant’s death shall be paid to or exercised by the Participant’s executor, administrator, or legal representative.

Article 16. Rights of Participants

16.1 Employment. Nothing in this Plan or an Award Agreement shall: (a) interfere with or limit in any way the right of the Company, its Affiliates, and/or its Subsidiaries to terminate any Participant’s employment or service on the Board or to the Company at any time or for any reason not prohibited by law, or (b) confer upon any Participant any right to continue his/her employment or service as a Director or Third-Party Service Provider for any specified period of time. Neither an Award nor any benefits arising under this Plan shall constitute an employment contract with the Company or any Affiliate or Subsidiary and, accordingly, subject to Articles 3 and 18, this Plan and the benefits hereunder may be

terminated at any time in the sole and exclusive discretion of the Committee without giving rise to any liability on the part of the Company, its Affiliates, and/or its Subsidiaries.

16.2 Participation. No individual shall have the right to be selected to receive an Award under this Plan, or, having been so selected, to be selected to receive a future Award.

| (b) | Except in connection with a corporate transaction involving the Company (including, without limitation, any stock dividend, stock split, extraordinary cash dividend, recapitalization, reorganization, merger, consolidation, split-up, spin-off, combination, or exchange of shares), the terms of an outstanding Award may not be amended to reduce the exercise price of outstanding Options or to reduce the Grant Price of outstanding SARs or cancel outstanding Options or SARs in exchange for cash, other Awards, or Options or SARs with an exercise price or Grant Price, as applicable, that is less than the exercise price of the cancelled Options or the Grant Price of the cancelled SARs without shareholder approval.

| (c) | Notwithstanding the foregoing, no amendment of this Plan shall be made without stockholder approval if stockholder approval is required pursuant to rules promulgated by any stock exchange or quotation system on which Shares are listed or quoted or by

applicable U.S. state corporate laws or regulations, applicable U.S. federal laws or regulations, and the applicable laws of any foreign country or jurisdiction where Awards are, or will be, granted under the Plan.

20.2 Adjustment of Awards Upon the Occurrence of Certain Unusual or Nonrecurring Events. Subject to Section 12.3, the Committee may make adjustments in the terms and conditions of, and the criteria included in, Awards in recognition of unusual or nonrecurring events (including, without limitation, the events described in Section 4.4 hereof) affecting the Company or the financial statements of the Company or of changes in applicable laws, regulations, or accounting principles, whenever the Committee determines that such adjustments are appropriate in order to prevent unintended dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under this Plan. The determination of the Committee as to the foregoing adjustments, if any, shall be conclusive and binding on Participants under this Plan. By accepting an Award under this Plan, a Participant agrees to any adjustment to the Award made pursuant to this Section 20.2 without further consideration or action.

21.2 Share Withholding. With respect to withholding required upon the exercise of Options or SARs, the lapse of restrictions on Restricted Stock, the delivery of cash or Shares in the settlement of Restricted Stock Units, or the achievement of performance goals related to Performance Units or Performance Shares, or any other taxable event

arising as a result of an Award granted hereunder (collectively and individually referred to as a “Share Payment”), Participants may elect, subject to the approval of the Committee, to satisfy the withholding requirement, in whole or in part, by having the Company withhold from a Share Payment the number of Shares having a Fair Market Value on the date the withholding is to be determined equal to the minimum withholding requirement. All such elections shall be irrevocable, made electronically or in writing and signed by the Participant, and shall be subject to any restrictions or limitations that the Committee, in its sole discretion, deems appropriate.

Article 22. Successors

All obligations of the Company under this Plan with respect to Awards granted hereunder shall be binding on any successor to the Company, whether the existence of such

successor is the result of a direct or indirect purchase, merger, consolidation, or otherwise, of all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company.

Article 23. General Provisions

23.1 Forfeiture Events.

| (a) | The Committee may specify in an Award Agreement that the Participant’s rights, payments, and benefits with respect to an Award shall be subject to reduction, cancellation, forfeiture, or recoupment upon the occurrence of certain specified events, in addition to any otherwise applicable vesting or performance conditions of an Award. Such events may include, but shall not be limited to, termination of employment for Cause, termination of the Participant’s provision of services to the Company, Affiliate, or Subsidiary, violation of material Company, Affiliate, or Subsidiary policies, breach of noncompetition, confidentiality, or other restrictive covenants that may apply to the Participant, or other conduct by the Participant that is detrimental to the business or reputation of the Company, any Affiliate, or Subsidiary.

| (b) | If a Participant fails to sign an Award Agreement within six (6) months of such Award Agreement being delivered to the Participant by the Company, the Award being granted pursuant to such Award Agreement shall be subject to forfeiture.

| (c) | If any of the Company’s financial statements are required to be restated resulting from errors, omissions, or fraud, the Committee may (in its sole discretion, but acting in good faith) direct that the Company recover all or a portion of any Award granted or paid to a Participant or make additional payments or grants to a Participant for any Award with respect to any fiscal year of the Company the financial results of which are affected by such restatement. The amount to be recovered from or paid to the Participant shall be the amount by which the Award differed from the amount that would have been payable to the Participant had the financial statements been initially filed as restated. In no event shall the amount to be recovered by the

A-16

TABLE OF CONTENTS

APPENDIX A

Company be less than the amount required to be repaid or recovered as a matter of law (including but not limited to amounts that are required to be recovered or forfeited under Section 304 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002). The Committee shall determine the method of any recovery or payment pursuant to this provision.

23.2 Legend. The certificates for Shares may include any legend which the Committee deems appropriate to reflect any restrictions on transfer of such Shares.

23.4 Severability. In the event any provision of this Plan shall be held illegal or invalid for any reason, the illegality or invalidity shall not affect the remaining parts of this Plan, and this Plan shall be construed and enforced as if the illegal or invalid provision had not been included.

23.5 Requirements of Law. The granting of Awards and the issuance of Shares under this Plan shall be subject to all applicable laws, rules, and regulations, and to such approvals by any governmental agencies or national securities exchanges as may be required.

| (a) | Obtaining any approvals from governmental agencies that the Company determines are necessary or advisable; and

| (b) | Completion of any registration or other qualification of the Shares under any applicable national or foreign law or ruling of any governmental body that the Company determines to be necessary or advisable.

23.7 Inability to Obtain Authority. The inability of the Company to obtain authority from any regulatory body having jurisdiction, which authority is deemed by the Company’s counsel to be necessary to the lawful issuance and sale of any Shares hereunder, shall relieve the Company of any liability in respect of the failure to issue or sell such Shares as to which such requisite authority shall not have been obtained.

23.8 Investment Representations. The Committee may require any individual receiving Shares pursuant to an Award under this Plan to represent and warrant in writing that the individual is acquiring the Shares for investment and without any present intention to sell or distribute such Shares.

23.9 Employees Based Outside of the United States. Notwithstanding any provision of this Plan to the contrary, in order to comply with the laws in other countries in which the

Company, its Affiliates, and/or its Subsidiaries operate or have Employees, Directors, or Third-Party Service Providers, the Committee, in its sole discretion, shall have the power and authority to:

| (a) | Determine which Affiliates and Subsidiaries shall be covered by this Plan;

| (b) | Determine which Employees, Directors, or Third-Party Service Providers outside the United States are eligible to participate in this Plan;

| (c) | Modify the terms and conditions of any Award granted to Employees, Directors, or Third-Party Service Providers outside the United States to comply with applicable foreign laws;

23.11 Unfunded Plan. Participants shall have no right, title, or interest whatsoever in or to any investments that the Company, its Subsidiaries, or its Affiliates may make to aid it in meeting its obligations under this Plan. Nothing contained in this Plan, and no action taken pursuant to its provisions, shall create or be construed to create a trust of any kind, or a fiduciary relationship between the Company and any Participant, beneficiary, legal representative, or any other individual. To the extent that any individual acquires a right to receive payments from the Company or any Affiliate or Subsidiary under this Plan, such right shall be no greater than the right of an unsecured general creditor of the Company or the Subsidiary or Affiliate, as the case may be. All payments to be made hereunder shall be paid from the general funds of the Company, or the Subsidiary or Affiliate, as the case may be and no special or separate fund shall be established and no segregation of assets shall be made to assure payment of such amounts except as expressly set forth in this Plan.

23.14 Deferred Compensation.

| (a) | The Committee may grant Awards under the Plan that provide for the deferral of compensation within the meaning of Code Section 409A. It is intended that such Awards comply with the requirements Section 409A so that amounts deferred thereunder are not includible in income and are not subject to an additional tax of twenty percent (20%) at the time the deferred amounts are no longer subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture.

| (b) | Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan or Award Agreement to the contrary, if one or more of the payments or benefits to be received by a Participant pursuant to an Award would constitute deferred compensation subject to Code Section 409A and would cause the Participant to incur any penalty tax or interest under Code Section 409A or any regulations or Treasury guidance promulgated thereunder, the Committee may reform the Plan and Award Agreement to comply with the requirements of Code Section 409A and to the extent practicable maintain the original intent of the Plan and Award Agreement. By accepting an Award under this Plan, a Participant agrees to any amendments to the Award made pursuant to this Section 23.14(b) without further consideration or action.

23.15 Nonexclusivity of this Plan. The adoption of this Plan shall not be construed as creating any limitations on the power of the Board or Committee to adopt such other compensation arrangements as it may deem desirable for any Participant.

23.16 No Constraint on Corporate Action. Nothing in this Plan shall be construed to: (a) limit, impair, or otherwise affect the Company’s or a Subsidiary’s or an Affiliate’s right or power to make adjustments, reclassifications, reorganizations, or changes of its capital or business structure, or to merge or consolidate, or dissolve, liquidate, sell, or

transfer all or any part of its business or assets; or (b) limit the right or power of the Company or a Subsidiary or an Affiliate to take any action which such entity deems to be necessary or appropriate.

23.19 No Representations or Warranties Regarding Tax Effect. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, the Company, its Affiliates and Subsidiaries, the Board, and the Committee neither represent nor warrant the tax treatment under any federal, state, local, or foreign laws and regulations thereunder (individually and collectively referred to as the “Tax Laws”) of any Award granted or any amounts paid to any Participant under the Plan including, but not limited to, when and to what extent such Awards or amounts may be subject to tax, penalties and interest under the Tax Laws.
