PROPOSAL 4 - STOCKHOLDER PROPOSAL | |
APPENDIX A - AON HEWITT'S 2013 TCM SURVEY |
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY |
• | Improved quality - We moved with urgency to address quality issues in our existing product portfolio, as well as implemented new quality controls and testing systems. For example, during fiscal 2013, we logged nearly four million test miles on the International® ProStar® trucks powered by our Certified MaxxForce 13L engine (defined below). |
• | Hit our launches - We achieved several milestones, which include achieving U.S. Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA") certification using an existing Selective Catalytic Reduction ("SCR") technology, getting to market products that incorporate existing SCR technology while expanding our engine options, and revamping our heavy-duty truck portfolio. Specific examples include: |
◦ | We met our first major engine strategy milestone with the launch of certain Class 8 truck models featuring the Cummins ISX15 engine with the Cummins SCR after-treatment system in December 2012. |
◦ | In April, we met another major engine strategy milestone with the receipt of EPA certification of our MaxxForce 13L Big-Bore engines incorporating the Cummins SCR after-treatment system (the “Certified MaxxForce 13L engine”). Later in that same month, we began shipping our International® ProStar® trucks powered by our Certified MaxxForce 13L engine. Also in April, we received on-board diagnostic ("OBD") certification for all current applications. |
• | Deliver on our 2013 plan - We demonstrated discipline with regard to the cash of our manufacturing operations, where we met our guidance each quarter of fiscal 2013. We made tough decisions to reduce operating costs and made good progress on our benchmarking study and a Return on Invested Capital ("ROIC") evaluation initiative. We changed our leadership, which resulted in blending a combination our internal expertise with an outside perspective. |
◦ | Throughout fiscal 2013, we initiated various cost-reduction actions that were identified by our benchmarking study. Specifically in September 2013, we leveraged efficiencies identified through redesigning our organizational structure and began implementing new cost-reduction initiatives, including an enterprise-wide reduction-in-force, which we expect will contribute an estimated $50 million to $60 million of annual savings beginning in fiscal 2014. |
◦ | The ROIC evaluation initiative drove the discussions to divest: (i) our interests in Mahindra Navistar Automotives Ltd. and Mahindra-Navistar Engines Private Ltd. (collectively, the "Mahindra Joint Ventures") in February, (ii) the Workhorse Custom Chassis ("WCC") business in March, (iii) substantially all of our interest in certain operations of the Monaco RV business in May, and (iv) the Bison Coach trailer manufacturing business ("Bison Coach") in October. We also entered into an agreement to sublease a portion of our manufacturing facility in Cherokee, Alabama. Additionally, we began rationalizing certain engineering and product development programs, due in part to changes in our engine strategy and renewed focus on our core business of the North American truck and bus markets. |
• | Built sales momentum - We have seen a strong response in our traditional markets as evidenced by our backlog of unfilled truck orders increase of 26% for October 31, 2013, as compared to October 31, 2012. We have seen an increase in our order share in the second half of fiscal 2013 compared to the first half of the year. We believe this momentum will continue to be fueled by offering the Cummins ISB 6.7 liter engine (the “Cummins ISB”) in our International® DuraStar® medium-duty trucks and IC Bus™ CE Series school buses. Initial production of DuraStar® and CE Series school buses, incorporating the Cummins ISB, is expected to begin during our first quarter of fiscal 2014. |
• | Lead in vehicle uptime - Quality remains at the forefront of our customer-focused approach. We believe our quality will continue to improve and our trucks will be market leaders in uptime and fuel economy with the lowest cost of ownership. Going forward, we believe we are building the best trucks in our Company's history. |
• | Lean enterprise - We are utilizing a customer-focused redesign of our trucks to find new ways to reduce costs and add value for our customers. We are eliminating waste and driving functional excellence to achieve continuous improvement. We expect these steps will build customer satisfaction, lower our break-even point, and drive profitability at all points in the cycle. |
• | Financial growth - We expect the increases seen in our orders and backlogs in our traditional markets will translate to increased volumes and market share in the future. Due to our focus on reducing costs through manufacturing optimization, eliminating waste, and addressing the opportunities identified by our benchmarking study, we expect to lower manufacturing costs, increase capacity utilization and productivity, and a lower cost structure. We also expect to continue to enhance our liquidity profit and meet the needs of our financial obligations. As a result of these actions, we expect to improve our financial performance and achieve our long-term financial goals. |
• | Profitable improvements in market share - We expect the sales momentum that began in fiscal 2013 to continue with new and improved products, volume growth, and effective pricing. We intend to move steadily closer to having a full-product portfolio with SCR technology. We expect to continue to enhance our product differentiation with enhanced features and options that will benefit our customers and help drive profitable market share improvements. |

As materials manager at Navistar Defense, Mr. McEachern received annual compensation and benefits for fiscal 2013 of less than $145,000, which includes base salary, annual incentive, Company 401(k) matching contributions and other standard benefits available to all employees generally. Mr. McEachern’s compensation and benefits are comparable to other employees with equivalent qualifications, experience, and responsibilities at the Company. Moreover, Mr. McEachern’s annual compensation is market bench-marked periodically by our Corporate Compensation Department and determined outside of the related person’s reporting structure. This transaction is subject to our Policy and Procedures with Respect to Related Person Transactions because Mr. Cederoth was an executive officer of the Company. This transaction did not require approval however, and is permissible under our Policy and Procedures with Respect to Related Person Transaction because Mr. McEachern’s employment predated Mr. Cederoth’s appointment as our former Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. |
• | The third occurred in June 2013 and was approved by our Board, upon the recommendation of the Audit Committee, and relates to Carl Icahn, a 16% stockholder of the Company, and a subsidiary of CVR Energy, Inc. (“CVR”). CVR purchased seven trucks from Navistar, Inc. for a total purchase price of approximately $800,000. Mr. Icahn owns 82% of CVR. In addition, Mr. Icahn is a member of CVR’s Board of Directors. CVR received the standard discount given to all customers and received no unique payment terms or special concessions. Because Mr. Icahn is an 82% owner of CVR, Mr. Icahn has a direct material interest in this transaction. The Audit Committee and Board considered the factors described above and the Board, upon the recommendation of the Audit Committee, approved the transaction on the basis that the Navistar/Icahn/CVR relationship is in the best interests of the Company. |
• | The fourth occurred throughout fiscal 2013 and was ratified by the Board, upon the recommendation of the Audit Committee, in December 2013 and relates to Carl Icahn, a 16% stockholder of the Company, and Federal-Mogul Corporation (“Federal-Mogul”). Navistar purchased goods and services from Federal-Mogul throughout fiscal 2013 that amounted to approximately $21,000,000. Mr. Icahn owns over 80% of Federal-Mogul. Navistar received standard terms and conditions and received no unique payment terms or special concessions. Because Mr. Icahn is an 80% owner of Federal-Mogul, Mr. Icahn has a direct material interest in this transaction. The Audit Committee and the Board considered the factors described above and the Board, upon the recommendation of the Audit Committee, ratified the transactions on the basis that the Navistar/Icahn/Federal-Mogul relationship is in the best interests of the Company. |

• | Engaged the services of a new executive compensation consultant to assess our current policies and programs and recommend changes to better align with best practices. |
• | Approved an Annual Incentive Plan ("AI Plan") for fiscal 2013 with four performance measures aligned with our turnaround strategy consisting of (i) Manufacturing cash, (ii) Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization ("EBITDA"), (iii) SG&A savings and (iv) successful quality engine launch. |
• | Approved changes to our Long-Term Incentive Plan ("LTI Plan"), with executives receiving only performance-based equity instruments. |
• | Structured a pay package for a new CEO with direct input from major stockholders, aligning his incentives with a Company turnaround by issuing an upfront equity grant in lieu of any long-term incentive payments over the next 3 years in order to measure performance over the long-term. |
• | Approved a new peer group, placing Navistar at the median based on revenue and enterprise value. |
• | Approved a new Executive Stock Ownership Program ("ESOP") which increases ownership multiples, adds retention requirements, and eliminates premium shares. These changes are effective beginning fiscal 2014. |

• | Competitive Positioning: Total remuneration is designed to attract and retain the executive talent necessary to achieve our goals through a market competitive total remuneration package. |
• | Pay-for-Performance: Executive compensation is performance-based with a direct link to Company, business unit, and individual performance. It is also designed to align the interests of executives and stockholders. |
• | Ownership and Responsibility: Compensation programs are designed to recognize individual contributions as well as link executive and stockholder interests through programs that reward our executive officers, based on the financial success of the Company and increases to stockholder value. |
• | Attend all committee meetings at the request of the Compensation Committee. |
• | Advise the Compensation Committee on market trends, regulatory issues and developments and how they may impact our executive compensation programs. |
• | Review the compensation strategy and executive compensation programs for alignment with our strategic business objectives. |
• | Advise on the design of executive compensation programs to ensure the linkage between pay and performance. |
• | Provide market data analyses to the Company. |
• | Advise the Compensation Committee and the Board on setting the Chairman and CEO pay. |
• | Review the annual compensation of the other NEOs as recommended by the CEO. |
• | Perform such other activities as requested by the Compensation Committee. |
• | Mr. Campbell’s compensation as interim CEO was based on the interim nature of the position. |
◦ | Mr. Campbell was awarded a base salary of $500,000 and was awarded 500,000 stock options as a new hire inducement grant. |
◦ | This represented a significant decrease in CEO pay and a larger percentage of CEO compensation tied to the Company’s stock performance. |
• | Mr. Clarke's compensation when promoted from President and COO to President and CEO is specifically structured to focus on performance over the longer term as part of the turnaround strategy. Mr. Clarke’s compensation package was negotiated with significant input from our stockholder-nominated directors. |
◦ | Mr. Clarke’s base salary was increased to $900,000 and he was awarded a significant equity grant of stock options in lieu of future grants under the Company's fiscal 2014, 2015, and 2016 LTI Plan; however, over half of the grant value is subject to a 125% premium exercise price and/or earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, pension and other post-employment obligations ("EBITDAPO") and market share goals. The time vesting stock options are scheduled to vest at the rate of 33-1/3% on each of the first three anniversaries, and performance vesting stock options vest as the performance goals pre-established by the Compensation Committee are satisfied. |
◦ | As President and Chief Operating Officer, Mr. Clarke also received a fiscal 2013 LTI Plan award comprised of performance stock options and performance share units. The performance stock options and performance share units each have a three (3) year cliff vesting schedule. |
◦ | In general, our practice excludes the use of employment contracts. However, in connection with Mr. Clarke's appointment to President and CEO, we entered into a three-year employment and services agreement with him (the "Employment Agreement"). The following summarizes the material terms of the Employment Agreement: |
◦ | Base salary of $900,000; |
◦ | AI Plan target of $810,000 (90% of base salary); |
◦ | Stock option grant of $14,262,001 (50% time based, 50% performance based): |
▪ | with a grant date value of $10,602,643 awarded in fiscal 2013 (746,665 shares) |

◦ | Life insurance equal to five times base salary; |
◦ | Vacation equal to four weeks; |
◦ | Annual flexible perquisite payment of $46,000; |
◦ | Severance provisions that provide for a severance payment equal to the sum of (i) two times Mr. Clarke's base salary, (ii) the amount of his target annual incentive award and (iii) a pro-rated portion of his annual incentive award at the time such payments are made to the employees generally, in the event that Mr. Clarke is terminated without cause or due to constructive termination; and |
◦ | Severance provisions that provide for a severance payment equal to the sum of (i) two times Mr. Clarke's base salary, (ii) the amount of his target annual incentive award and (iii) a pro-rated portion of his annual incentive award paid at the time of his termination, in the event that Mr. Clarke is terminated without cause or due to constructive termination within 24 months of a change-in-control of the Company (or during the 90 days preceding the date of a change-in-control). |

The Executive Flexible Perquisites Program provides a cash stipend to each of our NEOs, the amount of which varies by executive, based upon the executive’s organization level. The purpose of the cash stipend is to provide each of our NEOs with the ability to choose the perquisite that best fits his or her professional and personal situation. This program is in lieu of providing and administering such items as car leases, tax preparation, financial planning, and home security systems. We do not require the NEOs to substantiate the expenses for which they use this stipend. The annual perquisite amount is paid prospectively in equal installments in May and November. |

(1) | The amounts reported in this column reflect the aggregate fair value of stock-based awards (other than stock options) granted in the year computed in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718, except that in compliance with SEC requirements, for awards that are subject to performance conditions, we reported the value at the grant date based upon the probable outcome of such conditions. These amounts are not paid to or realized by the officer. The fair values of stock-based awards are estimated using the average price of our stock on the grant date. Stock-based awards settle in common stock on a one-for-one basis. The grant date fair values of each individual stock based award in fiscal 2013 (including restricted stock units (RSUs) and premium share units (PSUs) are set forth in the 2013 Grant of Plan Based Awards table of this proxy statement. Additional information about these values is included in Note 19 to our audited financial statements included in our Form 10-K for fiscal 2013. A description of PSUs and RSUs appears in the narrative text under the 2013 Grants of Plan-Based Awards table of this proxy statement. In February 2013, we granted performance shares to our NEO's, except for Mr. Campbell who received no equity awards in fiscal 2013 and Mr. Borst who received a performance award in August 2013. The performance shares conditions are measured at the end of the third fiscal year following the grant date and vest as long as performance conditions and service requirements have been met. Our NEO's earn performance shares only if EBITDAPO meets certain target levels. Potential payouts range from 0% to 200% of the target values of these awards. The amounts in this table assume achievement of the target level of performance (100% payout) for such awards. Assuming performance at the highest level, the aggregate grant date values of the stock awards for each of our NEO's who received a performance share award were as follows: $2,574,670 for Mr. Clarke; $2,000,003 for Mr. Borst; $1,029,890 for Mr.Cederoth; $1,802.253 for Mr. Allen; $823,901 for Mr. Covey; and $823,901 for Mr. Tech. |

(3) | The amounts reported in this column represent the fiscal 2013 AI Plan award payment based on 40% of standard target. Awards will be paid in early February 2014 as a mix of 50% cash and 50% cash-settled RSUs unless the Company elects to grant share-settled RSUs. |
(4) | This amount represents the change in the actuarial present value of the RPSE and MRO for Messrs. Allen and Covey. This amount also represents the change in actuarial present value of the SERP and certain interest on the SRAP for Messrs. Clarke and Tech. For Mr. Borst, the amount represents the actuarial present value of the SERP. For Mr. Cederoth the amount represents the change in actuarial present value of the RPSE and SERP as well as an interest crediting rate of 7.5% per annum compounded on a daily basis. This is the rate used to design the SRAP as a comparable replacement for the MRO. The interest crediting rate constitutes an "above-market interest rate" under the Internal Revenue Code. |
(5) | This includes such items as flexible perquisites cash allowances, Company-paid life and AD&D insurance premiums, Company contributions to the RAP and the SRAP, taxable spouse travel, non-cash awards, club memberships, executive physicals and severance payments to the NEOs in fiscal 2013. |

(1) | Under the terms of Company's fiscal 2013 AI Plan, 50% of the award was to be paid in cash and 50% of the award was to be paid in cash or share settled RSUs, at the Company's discretion. The amounts set forth in this column represent the 50% cash portion of estimated payments to be awarded under the fiscal 2013 AI Plan. Amounts indicated are adjusted to reflect fiscal 2013 adjusted AI Plan target from 100% to 75%. Per Mr. Borst's employment offer, his fiscal 2013 AI Plan award is guaranteed at 100% standard target. For additional information regarding such awards, see the Annual Incentives section of this proxy statement and footnote 3 to the Summary Compensation Table. |
(2) | Under the terms of the Company's fiscal 2013 AI Plan, 50% of the award was to be paid in cash and 50% of the award was to be paid in cash or share settled RSUs, at the Company's discretion. The amounts set forth in this column represent the grant date fair value of the RSU award. The actual number of shares to be granted will be determined at the time the RSUs are issued. The RSUs will vest as to 1/3rd of the shares granted on each of the first three anniversaries of the date of grant so that in three years the award will be 100% vested. Per Mr. Borst's employment offer, 100% of his fiscal 2013 AI Plan award is to be paid in cash. Mr. Cederoth forfeited his rights to the RSU portion of the AI Plan award payment upon his separation from the Company on June 30, 2013. The Compensation Committee approved the RSU payment on December 16, 2013, however the grant date was determined to be February 3, 2014. |
(3) | Performance Stock Options and EBITDAPO Performance Share Units. The amounts shown represent the threshold, target and maximum number of performance stock options or EBITDAPO performance shares that we awarded in fiscal 2013 to the NEO’s under our 2013 PIP as we describe more fully under the Long-Term Incentives section of this proxy statement. The EBITDAPO performance shares will vest and be earned based upon the achievement of certain EBITDAPO performance goals for the period beginning on November 1, 2014 and ending on October 31, 2015 ("FY 2015"), provided that the NEO is continuously employed at the Company through the performance period. If EBITDAPO performance goals are met we intend to pay the awards in shares of our common stock. |
(4) | Premium Share Units. The amounts shown represent the number of PSUs awarded to the NEOs in the fiscal year. PSUs represent shares of Common Stock granted pursuant to our Executive Stock Ownership Program as in effect during fiscal 2013 and are based on the attainment of certain stock ownership thresholds. PSUs generally vest over a three year period with 1/3rd of the award vesting on each of the first three anniversaries of the date on which they are awarded. PSUs do not have an exercise price and are settled only for shares of our Common Stock on a one-for-one basis. Settlement of PSUs will occur within 10 days after an NEO’s separation of employment or at such later date as required by Internal Revenue Code Section 409A. |
(5) | Restricted Stock Units. Represents the number of shares of RSUs granted to Mr. Borst in connection with being hired as the Company's Chief Financial Officer and the number of shares of restricted stock units granted to Mr. Allen as a retention grant. Mr. Borst's RSUs vest as to 1/3rd of the shares granted on each anniversary date of the award, so that in three years they will be 100% vested. Mr. Allen's RSUs vest at to 100% of the shares on the 3rd anniversary of the date of grant. |
(6) | Stock Options. The amounts shown represent the number of stock options granted in the fiscal year. The stock options generally vest over a three year period with 1/3 vesting on each of the first three anniversaries of the date on which they are awarded. The stock options expire seven years after the date of grant. |
(7) | The exercise price per share is the fair market value (closing price) of Common Stock on the date of grant, except for two stock option awards granted to Mr. Clarke that were granted at a 25% premium above the closing price. |
(8) | The amounts shown do not reflect realized compensation by the NEOs. The amounts shown represent the value of the stock option, performance stock options RSUs, EBITADPO performance shares and PSU awards granted to the NEO’s based on the grant date fair value of the awards as determined in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718. The EBITDAPO performance share awards are reflected at the target payout level. If the EBITADPO performance share awards were reflected at maximum payout levels, the amounts in this column would be $2,574,670 for Mr. Clarke, $2,000,003 for Mr. Borst, $1,802,253 for Mr. Allen, $823,901 for Mr. Covey, $823,901 for Mr. Tech and $1,029,890 for Mr. Cederoth. The two performance stock options granted to Mr. Clarke on April 22, 2013 (one with an exercise price at fair market value (the closing price on the date of grant) one with an exercise price at a 25% premium above the fair market value) are reflected at the target payout level, if these performance stock options were reflected at maximum payout levels the amounts in this column would be $2,234,007 for the performance options granted with an exercise price at fair market value and $1,950,276 for the performance options granted with an excise price set at 25% above the fair market value. |
(9) | In connection with Mr. Cederoth's separation from the Company on June 30, 2013, all of his stock awards, performance stock option awards, PSUs granted in fiscal 2013, and the portion of the fiscal 2013 AI Plan award payable in RSUs were forfeited. |

Also unless otherwise noted, form of payment, discount rate (4.2%) and mortality (RP-2000 Combined Mortality Table projected to January 1, 2021 at 100% of scale AA) is based on assumptions from the guidance on accounting for pensions. Additionally, SERP benefits have only been offset by benefits under Navistar sponsored retirement programs. At actual retirement these benefits will also be offset by benefits accumulated under programs for employment prior to Navistar, Inc. |
(2) | Mr. Campbell was not eligible for pension benefits per his employment agreement. |
(3) | Service for Mr. Cederoth is limited under the RPSE to the service accrued as of December 31, 2004. Present value of the accumulated benefits for Mr. Cederoth is at June 30, 2013, the effective date of his separation. |
• | Navistar, Inc. Retirement Plan for Salaried Employees (RPSE). The RPSE is a funded and tax-qualified defined benefit retirement program. The plan provides benefits primarily based on a formula that takes into account the employee’s years of service, final average earnings and a percentage of final average earnings per year of service (accrual rates). The table below summarizes the benefit accrual rates under the RPSE. |
Prior to 1989 | After 1988 | Maximum | |

• | Navistar, Inc. Managerial Retirement Objective Plan (MRO). We offer the MRO to approximately 70 eligible managers and executive officers. The MRO provides for retirement benefits that are either not covered by or that are above those provided under our RPSE. The MRO is unfunded and is not qualified for tax purposes. |
• | Navistar, Inc. Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (SERP). The SERP is designed as a pension supplement to attract and retain executive officers. Executive officers are eligible to participate in the SERP upon attainment of age 55 or upon their date of hire if later. |
Up to Age 55 | On or After Age 55 | |
Each Year of Age | 1/2% | 1% |
Each Year of Service | 1/2% | 1% |
• | Other Retirement Income Programs. We also sponsor the Navistar, Inc. 401(k) Plan for Represented Employees (REP) and the Navistar, Inc. Retirement Accumulation Plan (RAP). Represented employees are allowed to defer a portion of their compensation to the 401(k) Plan up to the Internal Revenue Code limitations. All employees are allowed to defer a portion of their compensation to the RAP up to the Internal Revenue Code limitations. Employees that do not receive any additional service accruals under RPSE receive non-elective employer retirement contributions equal to a percentage of compensation ranging from 2% up to 6.5% based on their age at the beginning of the calendar year. Additionally, employees that do not participate in our retiree medical plan receive matching contributions equal to 50% of the first 6% of employee elective pre-tax deferrals. For those executives whose employer contributions would be limited by the Internal Revenue Code, the SRAP (described below) provides for contributions in excess of the Internal Revenue Code limitations. This plan is described in more detail within the Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation section of this proxy statement. |

(1) | Our contributions represent the sum of any notional contribution credits to the SRAP during the year and the value, based on our Common Stock share price at year end, of the PSUs granted during that fiscal year. |
(2) | "Aggregate Earnings in Last Fiscal Year” represent the notional interest credited during the year for participants in the SRAP, if applicable, plus the change in value from the beginning of the year to the end of the year in the PSUs and/or DSUs held by each NEO. For the SRAP, “Aggregate Earnings in Last Fiscal Year” is the interest credited to each NEO from the beginning of the fiscal year until the end of the fiscal year at a 7.5% interest crediting rate. “Aggregate Earnings in Last Fiscal Year” for purposes of the PSU is the aggregate change in value of the PSUs held during the year. |
(3) | The “Aggregate Balance as of Last Fiscal Year End” consists of the sum of each NEO’s notional account balance in the SRAP at the end of the year and the value at year end of the outstanding PSUs and/or DSUs. |
• | Navistar, Inc. Supplemental Retirement Accumulation Plan (SRAP). The SRAP provides executive officers with contributions equal to the amount by which their annualized non-elective age-weighted contributions to the RAP are limited by the Internal Revenue Code. The SRAP is unfunded and is not qualified for tax purposes. |
• | Premium Share Units (PSU). In general, our Executive Stock Ownership Program as in effect during fiscal 2013 required all of our executive officers to acquire, by direct purchase or through salary or annual bonus reduction, an ownership interest in Navistar by acquiring a designated amount of our Common Stock at specified times. Participants are required to hold such stock for the entire period in which they are employed by us. PSUs may be awarded under the 2013 PIP to participants who complete their ownership requirement on an accelerated basis. PSUs vest in equal installments on each of the first three anniversaries of the date on which they are awarded. Each vested PSU will be settled by delivery of one share of Common Stock. Such settlement will occur within 10 days after a participant’s termination of employment or at such later date as required by Internal Revenue Code Section Rule 409A. |
• | Deferred Share Units (DSU). Under the Restoration Stock Option Program, participants generally may exercise vested options by presenting shares that have a total market value equal to the applicable option exercise price times the number of options. Restoration options are then granted with an exercise price equal to the then current fair market price in an amount equal to the number of shares held by the option holder for at least six months that were presented to exercise the original option, plus the number of shares that are withheld for the required tax liability. Participants who hold non-qualified stock options that were vested prior to December 31, 2004 may also defer the receipt of shares of our Common Stock that would have been acquired upon exercise of a restoration stock option exercise of these options. Participants who elect to defer receipt of these shares receive DSUs. DSUs are awarded under the 2013 PIP. DSUs are credited into the participant’s account at the then current market price. The DSUs are generally distributed to the participant in the form of our Common Stock at the date specified by the participant at the time of his election to defer. During the deferral period, the participants will have no right to vote the stock, to receive any dividend declared on the stock, and no other right as a stockholder. In December 2008, we eliminated the Restoration Stock Option Program for future stock options under the 2004 PIP. |
• | The expiration date of the agreement period post-Change in Control ("CIC") will be the date that occurs eighteen (18) months after the date of the CIC;a decrease from thirty-six (36) months or more post-CIC; |
• | A CIC will not occur if certain "Excluded Persons" (including Mark H. Rachesky, Icahn Enterprises and employee or retirement benefit plans or trusts sponsored or established by the Company) become the "Beneficial Owner" of securities representing 50% or more of the combined voting power of the Company's then-outstanding securities; |
• | The level of ownership of securities required to trigger a CIC has been increased to fifty (50) percent or more of the combined voting power of the Company’s then-outstanding securities - an increase from the twenty-five (25) percent ownership requirement; |
• | A termination will be deemed to occur post-CIC if it occurs during the agreement period and during the eighteen (18) month period immediately following the CIC - a decrease from thirty-six (36) months post-CIC; |
• | A diminution of authority sufficient to trigger a termination for “Good Reason” has been narrowed to occur only if the executive officer experiences a decrease in his or her organizational level or a change to his or her reporting structure that requires the executive to report to a supervisor whose organizational level is below the executive’s current organizational level; |
• | The executive officer's obligations (i) not to disclose confidential, secret, proprietary or privileged information pertaining to the business of the Company, (ii) to refrain from making any defamatory, disparaging, slanderous, libelous or derogatory statements about the Company and (iii) to cooperate and provide assistance to the Company in connection with litigation or any other matters, have been extended to continue at all times during the agreement period of the ESA and at all times following the executive officer's termination of employment for any reason; and |
• | The Compensation Committee may require the executive officer to repay incentive pay previously received from the Company if the Compensation Committee determines that repayment is due on account of a restatement of the Company’s financial statements or for another reason under the Company’s Recoupment Policy. |
• | The amended ESA will not become effective unless and until the executive officer signs a written release agreement in a form acceptable to the Company. In the event of a termination under the ESA, the executive officer's eligibility for separation payments and benefits is conditioned on the executive officer's timely signing, and not revoking, a written release agreement in a form acceptable to the Company; and |
• | No payments are eligible for Internal Revenue Code 280G excise tax gross-up. |
• | Voluntary Termination and Involuntary (Termination for "Cause") Termination: We are not obligated to provide the executive with any additional or special compensation or benefits upon a voluntary termination by the executive or |

• | Lump sum distributions from any defined contribution plans, both tax-qualified and non-tax-qualified, that the executive participated in solely to the extent provided under the terms of such plans; and |
• | A pro-rata portion of cash-settled performance shares. |
• | Involuntary Termination (Not for "Cause") or Good Reason Termination: If the employment of an executive officer is terminated due to either an involuntary termination by us without "Cause" or a "Good Reason" (as defined below) termination by the executive, in each case either before the date of a Change in Control (as defined in the ESA) or more than 36 months after the date of the most recent Change in Control, then the executive would generally be eligible to receive the following: |
• | An amount equal to one-hundred to two-hundred percent (100-200%) of the total of (i) the executive’s annual base salary in effect at the time of termination and (ii) the executive’s AI Plan award at target level (the “Severance Pay”); |
• | Continued health insurance for the 24-month period following termination; provided that for the first 12 month period, the executive shall pay for such coverage at no greater after tax costs to the executive than the after-tax cost to the executive officer immediately prior to the date of termination and for the remaining 12-month period, the executive officer shall pay for such coverage on a monthly cost of coverage basis; |
• | Pro-rata annual incentive for the number of months of fiscal year eligible participation which is based upon actual results and will only be paid if and at the same time that the Company pays AI Plan awards to active employees; |

• | The right to exercise vested stock options for three months or twelve months, depending upon date of grant; and |
• | Forfeit any unvested cash-settled performance shares, any unvested stock options and any unvested restricted stock, RSUs or PSUs. |
• | Termination Related to a Change in Control: If the employment of an executive officer is involuntarily terminated for any reason other than for "Cause" or if a "Constructive Termination" (as described below) occurs within 36 months after a Change in Control, the executive officer would generally be eligible to receive the following: |
• | An amount equal to (i) a pro rata portion of the executive officer’s AI Plan award at target level, which payment shall be in lieu of any payment to which the executive officer may otherwise have been entitled to receive under a Change in Control-sponsored incentive or bonus plan (the “CIC Prorated Bonus”), plus (ii) a multiplier ranging from 150% to 300% of the sum of the executive officer’s annual base salary in effect at the time of termination and the executive officer’s AI Award at Target level (the “CIC Severance Pay”). The CIC Severance Pay and the CIC Prorated Bonus shall be paid in a lump sum on the payment date; |
• | Continued health insurance for the 24-month period following termination; provided that for the first 12 month period, the executive officer shall pay for such coverage at no greater after tax costs to the executive officer than the after tax cost to the executive officer immediately prior to the date of termination and for the remaining 12-month period, the executive officer shall pay for such coverage on a monthly cost of coverage basis; |
• | Outplacement services; |

• | Acceleration of the vesting of cash-settled performance shares at the target performance level; and |
• | A lump sum cash payment equal to the difference in (i) the actuarial present value of the executive officer’s non-tax-qualified pension benefits assuming the executive officer was three years older and had three more years of service, over (ii) the actuarial present value of the executive officer’s non-tax-qualified pension benefits at the date of termination. The lump sum payout of the supplemental pension benefits is offset by the value of any ongoing payments. |

(1) | Mr. Clarke does not have an ESA. Per his Employment Agreement, in the event his employment and service with the Company is terminated (i) by the Company without Cause, or (ii) by Executive due to Constructive Termination, as defined in his Employment Agreement, then in addition to accrued obligations, he is eligible for the sum of 200% of base salary plus annual incentive target. |
(2) | Mr. Campbell did not have an ESA. Per his employment agreement, in the event he was terminated for any reason, accrued obligations are due. In the event of a Constructive Termination as defined in his employment agreement, he was eligible for the sum of 300% of base salary plus annual incentive target. |
(3) | Mr. Cederoth left the Company June 30, 2013. |
• | Disability and Death: If an executive officer is disabled and is prevented from working for pay or profit in any job or occupation, he or she may be eligible for our “Non-Represented Employee Disability Benefit Program” which provides for short-term and long-term disability (“LTD”) benefits. Our executive officers are not covered under a separate program. While covered under LTD, an executive officer is eligible for 60 percent of his or her base salary reduced (or offset) by other sources of income, such as social security disability. In the event of a total and permanent disability as defined by this program, an executive officer may exercise outstanding stock options any time within three years after such termination. In the event an executive officer has restricted stock, or RSUs, the restricted stock or RSUs will continue to vest according to the terms of the grant. In the event an executive officer has PSUs, vesting accelerates and the shares are issued immediately. In addition, while classified as disabled, the executive officer continues to accrue benefits under the defined benefit plans. |

(1) | The per share value for options is equal to the difference between the option exercise price and the closing price as of the last day of the fiscal year (October 31, 2013), which was $36.16 per share. Please refer to the Outstanding Equity Awards Table of this proxy statement for more information on this subject as the amounts in these columns represent awards that have already been granted to the NEOs in previous years. |
(2) | The value of restricted stock, RSU or PSU is based on the October 31, 2013 closing price of $36.16 per share. Please refer to the Outstanding Equity Awards Table of this proxy statement for more information on this subject as the amounts in this column represent awards that have already been granted to the NEOs in previous years. Amounts indicated for for Voluntary and Involuntary for Cause Termination represent deferred shares that have already been earned. |
(3) | This amount represents the value of all unvested cash-settled performance shares based on a change in control effective October 31, 2013 with a closing price of $36.16. |
(4) | Benefits include 12 months continued health care coverage with an option to purchase an additional 12 months at the cost of coverage rate and 24 months of continued life insurance coverage for all NEOs for terminations following an involuntary not-for-cause termination, good reason termination or a termination following a Change in Control. |
(5) | This represents our cost for NEO outplacement counseling and services. |
(6) | Mr. Clarke does not have an ESA. In the event Mr. Clarke's employment and service with the Company terminates for any reason, including due to his death or disability, Mr. Clarke will be entitled to unpaid and accrued payments and benefits. |
1. | A lump sum severance payment equal to 200% of the sum of his base salary and annual incentive target; |
2. | Twelve months continued health care coverage with the an option to purchase an additional 12 months at the cost of coverage rate; |
3. | 24 months continued life insurance coverage; |
4. | Outplacement services; |
5. | Retention of any remaining flexible perquisite allowance already paid; |
6. | Company-paid tax counseling and tax forms preparation services up to and including the taxable year of Mr. Clarke in which the termination occurred; |
7. | Pro rata portion of the annual incentive award that would have been payable to Mr. Clarke for the Company's fiscal year in which the termination occurred, based on actual performance at effective October 31; and |
8. | Pro rata vesting of outstanding 2013 time-vested options and 2014 stock options. A pro rata portion of the outstanding unvested performance-vested 2013 stock options and 2014 stock options will remain eligible for vesting upon the conclusion of the applicable performance period, if and only to the extent that the performance conditions are satisfied. |
(7) | This amount is 60% of annualized base salary as of October 31, 2013 and is not offset by other sources of income, such as social security. It represents the amount that would be paid annually over the term of the disability. |
(8) | Surviving spouse benefits are payable under the applicable pension plan. Messrs. Allen and Covey are participants in the defined benefit pension plan that provide surviving spouse benefits. Messrs. Clarke, Borst, Tech and Cederoth participate in our defined contribution plans and a defined benefit plan that provides a surviving spouse benefit. |
(9) | This calculation, as described in the ESA, is 150% - 200% of the sum of the NEO's annual base salary plus annual incentive target. |
(10) | The Internal Revenue Code 280G excise tax gross-up upon a Change in Control was eliminated. The Change in Control calculation, as defined in the ESA, is 300% of the sum of the executive’s annual base salary plus annual incentive target plus pro-rata annual incentive. |
(11) | Included in the Severance Amount /Cash Payment figure above for Change in Control is the lump sum cash payment equal to the difference in (i) the actuarial present value of the NEOs non-tax qualified pension benefits assuming the executive was three years older and had three more years of service, over (ii) the actuarial present value of the NEOs non-tax qualified pension benefits at the date of termination. The figures are as follows: For Mr. Allen $740,217, Mr. Tech $1,849,680 and Mr. Cederoth $188,431. Mr. Clarke's Employment Agreement does not have a provision for this lump sum cash payment; however, since he is not eligible for the SERP, he would be eligible to receive his lump sum SRAP payment in the amount of $90,860. |
(12) | Mr. Campbell's employment with the Company ended as of April 15, 2013. This amount reflects the amount the Company actually paid Mr. Campbell and not theoretical potential payments. |
(13) | Mr. Cederoth's employment with the Company ended as of June 30, 2013. This amount reflects the amount the Company actually paid Mr. Cederoth and not theoretical potential payments. |

(1) | Amounts in this column reflect fees earned by our non-employee directors in fiscal 2013. |
(2) | Under our Non-Employee Directors Deferred Fee Plan (the “Deferred Fee Plan”), our directors who are not employees receive an annual retainer, payable quarterly, at their election, either in shares of our Common Stock or in cash. A director may elect to defer any portion of such compensation until a later date in DSUs or in cash. Each such election is made prior to December 31st for the next succeeding calendar year or within 30 days of first joining the Board. Vincent J. Intrieri, General Stanley A. McChrystal, Samuel J. Merksamer, John C. Pope and Mark H. Rachesky, elected to defer the receipt of some or all of their compensation received for their retainer fees in 2013. Mr. Intrieri deferred receipt of 50% of his quarterly retainer fees in calendar year 2012 and 100% percent of his first quarter retainer payable in restricted stock and received 1,049.260 DSUs. General McChrystal deferred receipt of 100% of his quarterly retainer fees in DSUs and received 3,975.642 DSUs. Mr. Merksamer deferred receipt of 100% of his first quarter retainer fees payable in restricted stock and received 585.052 DSUs. Mr. Pope deferred receipt of 20% of his quarterly retainer fees in calendar year 2012 and 100% of his first quarter retainer payable in restricted stock and received 776.062 DSUs. Mr. Rachesky deferred receipt of 100% of his quarterly retainer fees in calendar year 2012 and received 928.416 DSUs. The amount of DSUs for Mr. Intrieri, General McChrystal, Mr. Merksamer, Mr. Pope and Mr. Rachesky has been credited as stock units in an account under each of their names at the then current market price of our Common Stock. The units issued to Mr. Intrieri, General McChrystal, and Mr. Merksamer during 2013 will be issued within 60 days after their separation from service with us. The units issued to Mr. Rachesky during 2013 were converted into Common Stock and issued on February 17, 2013. The units issued to Mr. Pope during 2013 were converted into Common Stock and issued on July 31, 2013. |
(3) | Effective April 1, 2013, each non-employee director received 585 shares of restricted stock in lieu of their first quarterly retainer, except for Ms. Gulyas, who retired from the Board on December 10, 2012, and for Mr. Intrieri, General McChrystal, Mr. Merksamer and Mr. Pope who each elected to defer receipt of their shares in DSUs, as described in footnote 2 above. The grant date fair value of the restricted stock and DSUs were determined in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718. Mr. Williams, does not personally receive compensation for his service on the Board, as noted under footnotes 5 and 9 below. For additional information regarding assumptions underlying valuation of equity awards see the consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2013. |

The stock options generally vest over a three year period with 1/3rd vesting on each of the first three anniversaries of the date on which they are awarded, so that in three years the stock options are 100% vested. The stock options granted on December 11, 2012 expire seven years after the date of grant. For additional information regarding assumptions underlying valuation of equity awards see the consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2013. |

(1) | This table does not include information regarding our 401(k) plans. Our 401(k) plans consist of the following: Navistar, Inc. 401(k) Plan for Represented Employees and Navistar, Inc. RAP. As of October 31, 2013, there were 570,782 shares of Common Stock held in these plans. |
(2) | This number includes stock options granted under our 1994 Performance Incentive Plan (“1994 PIP”); stock options, restoration stock options, DSUs and PSUs (as described in the Executive Stock Ownership Program discussed below) granted under our 2004 PIP; and stock options, performance stock options, RSUs, DSUs, PSUs and performance units granted under our 2013 PIP. Prior to February 17, 2004, restoration stock options were granted under our 1998 Supplemental Stock Plan (not approved by stockholders), as supplemented by the Restoration Stock Option Program. Under the Restoration Stock Option Program, generally one may exercise vested options by presenting shares that have a total market value equal to the option price times the number of options. Restoration options are then granted at the market price in an amount equal to the number of shares that were used to exercise the original option, plus the number of shares that are withheld for the required tax liability. Participants who own non-qualified stock options that were vested prior to December 31, 2004, may also defer the receipt of shares of Common Stock due in connection with a restoration stock option exercise of these options. Participants who elect to defer receipt of these shares will receive deferred stock units. The deferral feature is not available for non-qualified stock options that vest on or after January 1, 2005. The Restoration Stock Option Program was eliminated for all stock options granted on or after December 16, 2008. Stock options awarded to employees for the purchase of Common Stock from the 1994 PIP, the 2004 PIP and the 2013 PIP were granted at the fair market value of the stock on the date of grant, generally have a 10-year contractual life, except for options granted under the 2004 PIP after December 15, 2009 and options granted under the 2013 PIP which have a contractual life of 7-years, and generally become exercisable as to one-third of the shares on each of the first three anniversaries of the date of grant, so that in three years the shares are 100% vested. Performance stock options granted under the 2013 PIP on February 19, 2013 do not become exercisable until after the three year anniversary of the date of grant. Performance Options granted to our CEO on April 22, 2013 vest upon achievement of performance conditions at measurement date. Awards of RSUs granted under the 2013 PIP were established by the Board or committee thereof at the time of issuance. The 1994 PIP expired on December 16, 2003 and the 2004 PIP expired on February 18, 2013, and as such no further awards may be granted under the 1994 PIP or the 2004 PIP. As of October 31, 2013, 389,829 stock option awards remain outstanding for shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance under the 1994 PIP, 3,017,145 stock option awards, 7,730 DSUs, and 51,248 PSUs remain outstanding for shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance under the 2004 PIP, and 1,904,961 stock options, including performance options, 250,622 RSUs, 651,870 performance units, 3,092 DSUs and 13,412 PSUs remain outstanding for shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance under the 2013 PIP. For more information on the 2013 PIP see footnote 5 below. |
(3) | RSUs, DSUs, PSUs, and performance units settled in shares do not have an exercise price and are settled only for shares of our Common Stock on a one-for-one basis. These awards have been disregarded for purposes of computing the weighted-average exercise price. For more information on DSUs and PSUs see the discussion under the paragraph below entitled “The Executive Stock Ownership Program.” |
(4) | Our 2004 PIP was approved by the Board and the independent Compensation and Governance Committee on October 15, 2003, and, subsequently by our stockholders on February 17, 2004. Our 2004 PIP was subsequently amended on April 21, 2004, March 23, 2005, December 12, 2005, April 16, 2007, June 18, 2007, May 27, 2008, December 16, 2008, January 9, 2009, February 16, 2010, and April 19, 2010. The 2004 PIP replaced, on a prospective basis, our 1994 PIP, the 1998 Supplemental Stock Plan, both of which expired on December 16, 2003, and our 1998 Non-Employee Director Stock Option Plan (collectively, the “Prior Plans”). A total of 3,250,000 shares of Common Stock were reserved for awards under the 2004 PIP. On February 16, 2010, our stockholders approved an amendment to increase the number of shares available for issuance under the 2004 PIP from 3,250,000 to 5,750,000. Shares subject to awards under the 2004 PIP, or the Prior Plans after February 17, 2004 and before February 19,2013, that were canceled, expired, forfeited, settled in cash, tendered to satisfy the purchase price of an award, withheld to satisfy tax obligations or otherwise terminated without a delivery of shares to the participant again became available for awards. |
(5) | The 2013 PIP was approved by the Board and the Compensation Committee on December 11, 2012 and by our stockholders on February 19, 2013. The 2013 PIP replaced on a prospective basis the 2004 PIP and the Prior Plans, and awards may no longer be granted under |
(6) | The following plans were not approved by our stockholders: The 1998 Supplemental Stock Plan (as supplemented by the Restoration Stock Option Program (the “Supplemental Plan”)), The Executive Stock Ownership Program (the “Ownership Program”), The 1998 Non-Employee Director Stock Option Plan (the “Director Stock Option Plan”), and The Non-Employee Directors Deferred Fee Plan (the “Deferred Fee Plan”), except that any DSUs awarded out of the Deferred Fee Plan on or after September 30, 2013 are now issued out of the 2013 PIP. Below is a brief description of the material features of each plan, but in each case the information is qualified in its entirety by the text of such plans. We also granted 500,000 non-qualified stock options to Lewis B. Campbell upon his appointment as Executive Chairman and CEO of the Company on August 26, 2012. These stock options were a non-plan grant made under NYSE inducement grant rules. |
(7) | Includes 1,821 DSUs and 12,038 PSUs granted under the Executive Stock Ownership Program and 39,729 deferred stock units granted under the Deferred Fee Plan; all of which were outstanding as of October 31, 2013. |
