Vacancies may be filled by the shareholders or the remaining directors. See Selection of Nominees to the Board of Directors below.

The Governance Committee assesses independence on a regular basis, and each director is responsible for bringing any changes in his or her status that may affect his or her independence to the attention of the Governance Committee. In addition, on an annual basis the directors complete a questionnaire prepared by the Company that is designed to elicit information that the Board uses to assess director independence. At least annually, the Board reviews the relationships that each director has with the Company. Only those directors that the Board affirmatively determines have no material relationship with the Company, and who do not have any of the relationships that prevent independence under the standards of the NYSE, are considered to be independent directors.
The Board has determined that all of the current directors, other than Mr. Brinker, are independent within the meaning of the listing standards of the NYSE. The Board concluded that none of these directors has any of the relationships with the Company set forth in the NYSE listing standards or any other business or other relationships with the Company that would preclude a determination of his or her independence. Mr. Brinker is not independent due to his position as President and CEO of the Company.
Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions
The Code requires that all officers, employees and directors of the Company avoid any situation that conflicts with the proper discharge of his or her responsibility to the Company or that impairs his or her ability to exercise independence of judgment with respect to the transactions in which he or she is involved for the Company. Significant transactions with the Company's officers, employees or directors, their relatives, or enterprises in which they have material interests, are not permitted unless such transactions are fully disclosed and approved by the Board of Directors or the Audit Committee as being in the best interest of the Company.
Modine is a large global organization that engages in thousands of purchases, sales and other transactions annually. Modine may enter into purchase and sale transactions with other companies, universities and entities in which members of the Board of Directors are employed or are members of the Board of Directors for such entities. Modine enters into these arrangements in the ordinary course of business and at competitive prices and terms. The Company anticipates that similar transactions may occur in the fiscal year ending March 31, 2022.
At the end of each fiscal year, each director and officer must respond to a questionnaire that requires him or her to identify certain information about his or her immediate family and any transaction or relationship that occurred during the year or any proposed transaction that involves Modine (or any subsidiary or affiliate of Modine) and that individual, his or her immediate family, or any entity with which he, she or such immediate family member is associated. All responses to the questionnaires are reviewed by the Company's Legal Department and shared with the President and CEO, as appropriate. In addition, the Company independently searches its records for potential transactions with known related parties. Based upon such review, there were no related party transactions with respect to persons who were officers or directors during fiscal 2021.
Board Chairperson
Marsha C. Williams was appointed Chairperson of the Board in October 2020, having served in the position of Lead Director since July 2013. As Chairperson, Ms. Williams presides over meetings of the shareholders, the Board of Directors, and executive sessions of the Board of Directors, and carries out such other duties as directed by the Board of Directors and as listed in the Company's Guidelines on Corporate Governance. The Company believes this leadership structure is in the best interest of the Company's shareholders at present because it allows the Company to benefit from the unique leadership ability that Ms. Williams possesses and from her business and corporate governance experience.

Risk Oversight
The Board of Directors has overall responsibility for risk oversight for the Company. Management provides the Board with information on a regular basis to keep the members of the Board of Directors apprised of identified risks. These risks, including financial, organizational, reputational and strategic risks, are reviewed and discussed with the Board as part of the business and operating review conducted at each of the Board's regular meetings. As described below under Committees of the Board of Directors, the Board of Directors has delegated certain responsibilities to its committees. The committees have oversight of risks that fall within their areas of responsibility. The Audit Committee has primary oversight of the Company's financial reporting, internal control and compliance risks. The Human Capital and Compensation Committee evaluates the risks arising from the Company's compensation policies and programs. Management is responsible for managing risk and the Company's enterprise risk management program.
Selection of Nominees to the Board of Directors
The Governance Committee considers prospective candidates for Board membership who are recommended by its members, as well as those recommended by management, shareholders and independent consultants hired by the Governance Committee. The Governance Committee may also decide to engage a professional search firm to assist in identifying qualified candidates. When such a search firm is engaged, the Governance Committee sets its fees and scope of engagement.
Once the Governance Committee identifies a prospective nominee, it initially determines whether to conduct a full evaluation of the candidate. The Governance Committee makes its initial determination based on the information provided to it with the recommendation of the prospective candidate, as well as the Governance Committee's own knowledge of the prospective candidate, which may be supplemented by inquiries to the person making the recommendation or others.
The Governance Committee evaluates the prospective nominee, considering factors it deems appropriate, including the current composition of the Board and the evaluations of other prospective nominees. In assessing candidates, the Board considers the required areas of expertise set forth above in the Board Skills Matrix (business operations leadership; relevant industry experience; global business experience; financial expertise; technological expertise; corporate governance expertise; financial markets experience; and strategic planning, including mergers and acquisitions); additional attributes that are more specific to the Company's strategic direction and business emphasis at any given point; and such additional factors as the individual's education, contribution to the diversity of the Board, and other factors frequently encountered by a global business.
In choosing a candidate for Board membership, every effort is made to complement and supplement skills within the existing Board and to strengthen any identified areas. Further criteria include a candidate's personal and professional ethics, integrity and values, as well as his or her willingness and ability to devote sufficient time to attend meetings and participate effectively on the Board.
In connection with this evaluation, the Board determines whether to interview the prospective nominee. If an interview is warranted, one or more members of the Board of Directors, and others as appropriate, will interview prospective nominees. After completing the evaluation and interview, the Governance Committee makes a recommendation to the Board regarding the nomination of a candidate, and the Board acts on that recommendation.
Shareholder Nominations and Recommendations of Director Candidates
The Bylaws of the Company provide that any shareholder who is entitled to vote for the election of directors at a meeting called for such purpose may nominate persons for election to the Board of Directors. Shareholders who desire to nominate a person or persons for election to the Board or to present business at the next annual meeting must comply with the notice requirements in the Company's Bylaws, a copy of which is available from the Company's Secretary. For consideration at the 2022 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, nominations or the presentation of other business must be received by the Secretary no earlier than March 24, 2022 and no later than April 23, 2022. Shareholders who want to submit a recommendation for a director candidate for the Board may submit the recommendation to the Board using the procedure described below under Shareholder and Other Interested Persons' Communication with the Board. The Governance Committee intends to evaluate candidates recommended by shareholders in the same manner that it evaluates other candidates.

Table of Contents
Shareholder and Other Interested Persons' Communication with the Board
Shareholders and other interested persons wishing to communicate with the Board of Directors or with a Board member (including the Chairperson) should address communications to the Board or to the particular Board member, c/o Secretary, Modine Manufacturing Company, 1500 DeKoven Avenue, Racine, Wisconsin 53403-2552. In accordance with a process approved by the Board of Directors, the Secretary reviews all such correspondence. The Secretary forwards to the Board a summary of all such correspondence and copies of all correspondence that, in the opinion of the Secretary, deal with the functions of the Board or committees thereof or that she otherwise determines requires their attention. Concerns relating to accounting, internal controls or auditing matters are immediately brought to the attention of the Company's Business Ethics Committee and handled in accordance with procedures established by the Audit Committee with respect to such matters. From time to time, the Board may change the process by which shareholders and other interested persons may communicate with the Board of Directors or its members. Please refer to the Company's website, www.modine.com, for any changes to this process.
Committees of the Board of Directors
Audit Committee
The Audit Committee is a standing committee of the Board of Directors, established in accordance with Section 3(a)(58)(A) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the 'Exchange Act'). The charter of the Audit Committee is available on the Company's website, www.modine.com.
The Audit Committee is responsible for, among other things, appointing and overseeing the work of the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for the purpose of preparing and issuing an audit report and performing related work, and for discussing with the independent registered public accounting firm appropriate staffing and compensation. The Audit Committee also oversees management's implementation of systems of internal controls; monitors the preparation of quarterly and annual financial reports by management; determines whether the independent registered public accounting firm is independent; and reviews management's programs to monitor and address matters associated with compliance with the Company's Code of Conduct. The functions of the Audit Committee are more fully described below in the Report of the Audit Committee in this proxy statement.
The Board of Directors has determined that each member of the Audit Committee is independent as defined in the corporate governance listing standards of the NYSE relating to audit committees. The Board of Directors has also determined that each Audit Committee member satisfies the financial literacy and experience requirements of the NYSE, and that Mr. Cooley (the Chair of the Committee) and Mr. Ashleman qualify as audit committee financial experts within the meaning of the SEC rules.
Human Capital and Compensation Committee
The Human Capital and Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the 'HCC Committee') was previously known as the Officer Nomination and Compensation Committee, with a change in its name effective as of January 20, 2021. The HCC Committee is composed exclusively of non-employee, independent directors with no business relationship with the Company, other than in their capacity as directors, and there are no interlocking relationships with the Company that are subject to disclosure under the rules of the SEC related to proxy statements. The charter of the HCC Committee is available on the Company's website, www.modine.com.
The HCC Committee oversees and provides strategic direction to management regarding the Company's executive compensation practices. The HCC Committee reviews the performance of the executive officers, other than the CEO, and works in conjunction with the Governance Committee to review the performance of the CEO; reviews candidates for positions as officers; makes recommendations to the Board on certain officer candidates; makes recommendations to the Board on compensation of the CEO; determines, with the CEO's recommendations, the compensation of non-CEO executive officers and other officers of the Company; considers recommendations made by its independent compensation consultant relating to director compensation and presents those recommendations to the Board; administers the incentive compensation plans in which executive officers and directors participate; and reviews the Company's benefit programs made available to some or all salaried employees of the Company. The HCC Committee has the authority to delegate the aforementioned responsibilities to subcommittees comprised of independent Board members.
Mr. Brinker, as President and CEO, recommends to the HCC Committee any compensation changes affecting the Company's officers, including the named executive officers ('NEOs'), other than himself. Mr. Brinker presents to the HCC Committee the performance and leadership behavior goals and expectations of each such officer and the level of achievement of those goals as well as the Company's performance during the fiscal year. The HCC Committee reviews Mr. Brinker's recommendations and either approves or does not approve any compensation matters affecting such officers of the Company. Mr. Brinker has no role in setting his own compensation.
In fiscal 2021, the HCC Committee retained Farient Advisors LLC ('Farient') as its independent executive compensation consultant. Farient reports directly to the HCC Committee and provides no services to the Company. The HCC Committee has determined that Farient is independent under the NYSE Listing Standards. A representative of Farient attends meetings of the HCC Committee upon invitation by the Chair of the HCC Committee, either by phone or in person, and communicates with the Chair between meetings as necessary. Farient conducted a comprehensive benchmarking analysis of the Company's pay levels for the CEO, non-CEO executive officers and other officers of the Company, by pay component, using proxy data of the Company's self-selected peers (as discussed in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, below)and compensation survey data. In addition, Farient benchmarked the Company's executive pay programs and practices, including severance and change-in-control arrangements, as well as its goals and performance. The HCC Committee considered Farient's analyses in making its decisions; however, the HCC Committee made all decisions regarding the compensation of Modine's officers, including its NEOs (except for the CEO, whose compensation is set by the full Board). Additionally, Farient regularly updated the HCC Committee on regulatory and market trends and assisted with the benchmarking of Board of Director compensation practices and levels.

Board Meetings and Committees
The Board of Directors held nine meetings during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021 and had the following four standing committees: Audit; Human Capital and Compensation; Corporate Governance and Nominating; and Technology.
The Board generally selects the members of each of the committees in July of each year. However, in January 2021, the Board reduced the membership of the Governance Committee from eight to five members and appointed Ms. Christine Yan as Chair of the Governance Committee. All incumbent directors attended at least 75 percent of the aggregate of the Board meetings and meetings of committees on which he or she served during fiscal 2021. The CEO of the Company is not a standing member of any Board Committee, but regularly attends Committee meetings at the discretion of the respective Committee Chair.

COMPENSATION OF DIRECTORS
Employees of Modine do not receive any compensation for serving on the Board. Non-employee directors, including the Chairperson of the Board, are entitled to receive the following: an annual retainer of $85,000, payable quarterly; an additional annual retainer of $12,500 for acting as Chair of the HCC Committee, an additional annual retainer of $10,000 for acting as Chair of the Governance Committee, an additional annual retainer of $7,500 for acting as Chair of the Technology Committee, and an additional annual retainer of $15,000 for acting as Chair of the Audit Committee; reimbursement for travel, lodging, and related expenses incurred in attending Board and/or committee meetings; and travel-accident and director and officer liability insurance. Due to the uncertainty surrounding the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company's performance and overall markets, and the Company's desire to preserve cash, the Board temporarily reduced the cash retainers for non-employee directors by 20%, with such reduction impacting quarterly retainer payments made in July and September 2020. The full cash retainer amounts were reinstated with the December 2020 payment.
The 2020 Incentive Compensation Plan (the '2020 Incentive Plan') gives discretion to the Board, or a committee of the Board, to grant stock options and stock awards to non-employee directors. Under the 2020 Incentive Plan, the maximum value of stock awards that can be granted to a non-employee director per year is $300,000. The Board or the HCC Committee, as applicable, has broad discretionary authority to set the terms of awards under the 2020 Incentive Plan. It is the current practice of the Board of Directors to evaluate compensation and make grants of unrestricted stock awards to each non-employee director on an annual basis. For the 2021 fiscal year, non-employee directors, including the Lead Director (now, the Chairperson) of the Board, were entitled to receive stock awards with a value of approximately $125,000. The Lead Director (now, the Chairperson) was also entitled to additional equity compensation with a value of approximately $100,000. Consistent with this, the Company granted each non-employee director of the Company (other than the Lead Director, now the Chairperson) 23,992 unrestricted shares of stock (or restricted stock units, if a director so elected) in July 2020. The Company granted Ms. Williams, the Chairperson (formerly the Lead Director), 43,185 shares of stock at the same time. As Chairperson, Ms. Williams, among other duties, generally attends all meetings of the Board's committees but does not receive any attendance fee for those meetings.
Directors have the option of deferring either or both of their cash fees and/or equity compensation in accordance with the Company's Non-Employee Director Compensation Policy. For cash compensation, the directors may elect to defer up to 100% of their annual retainer and fees into the Modine Manufacturing Company Directors Deferred Compensation Plan and receive an investment return on the deferred funds as if the funds were invested in permitted mutual funds. The directors' deferred compensation accounts are unsecured obligations of the Company. Distributions commence following termination of service as a director.
For fiscal 2021, the directors were entitled to defer their equity compensation by electing in advance to receive an award of restricted stock units rather than a grant of unrestricted shares of the Company's common stock. These grants of restricted stock units are immediately vested but are not distributed until a director's termination of service or a fixed date, based upon a director's election at the time of deferral. Mr. Bills, Mr. Patterson, and Ms. Yan all elected to receive a grant of restricted stock units in lieu of a grant of unrestricted shares of the Company's common stock for their July 2020 equity awards.

In July 2020, all of the independent directors at that time, other than Ms. Williams, were granted 23,992 shares of unrestricted stock or restricted stock units. As explained above, the Company granted 43,185 shares of unrestricted stock to Ms. Williams at the same time. None of the directors included in the table above held any unvested stock awards as of the end of fiscal 2021.

Represents the aggregate grant date fair value of stock grants computed in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board ('FASB') ASC Topic 718. The assumptions used to determine the value of the awards are discussed in Note 5 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements contained in the Company's Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021.
(4)
Represents the change in pension value between the end of fiscal 2020 and the end of fiscal 2021 under the Modine Manufacturing Company Director Emeritus Retirement Plan. The change in pension value is solely a result of the change in the interest rate used to calculate the present value of the pension benefit under the Director Emeritus Retirement Plan because no benefits otherwise continue to accrue under that plan. The Company used discount rates of 3.2 percent and 3.4percent, respectively, to calculate the present value of the pension benefit obligation at March 31, 2021 and March 31, 2020.

The Board of Directors adopted the Director Emeritus Retirement Plan pursuant to which any person, other than an employee of the Company, who was or became a director of Modine on or after April 1, 1992 and who retired from the Board would be paid a retirement benefit equal to the annualized sum directors were paid for their service to the Company as directors (including Board meeting attendance fees but excluding any applicable committee attendance fees) in effect at the time such director ceased his or her service as a director. The retirement benefit continues for the period of time equal in length to the duration of the director's Board service. If a director dies before retirement or after retirement during such period, his or her spouse or other beneficiary would receive the benefit. In the event of a change in control (as defined in the Director Emeritus Retirement Plan) of Modine, each eligible director, or his or her spouse or other beneficiary entitled to receive a retirement benefit through him or her, would be entitled to receive a lump-sum payment equal to the present value of the total of all benefit payments that would otherwise be payable to such director under the Director Emeritus Retirement Plan. The retirement benefit is not payable if the director, directly or indirectly, competes with the Company or if the director is convicted of fraud or a felony and such fraud or felony is determined by disinterested members of the Board of Directors to have damaged Modine. Effective July 1, 2000, the Director Emeritus Retirement Plan was frozen with no further benefits accruing under it. Ms. Williams accrued pension benefits under the Director Emeritus Retirement Plan until it was frozen on July 1, 2000.

Mr. Anderson retired from the Board in July 2020.
Share Ownership Guidelines - Directors
Since 2008, the Board has maintained share ownership guidelines for incumbent members of the Board of Directors. The Board believes that in order to further align the interests of members of the Board and shareholders, members of the Board should have a meaningful personal investment in the Company. Only shares of stock, either restricted or unrestricted, including any deferred by a director in accordance with the Company's Non-Employee Director Compensation Policy, count toward the guideline figures. The current guidelines generally provide that five years after joining the Board, directors are expected to hold shares of Company stock with a value of at least five times the value of the director's current annual cash retainer. All directors are currently in compliance with these guidelines. The share ownership guidelines for officers of the Company are described below in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis - Share Ownership Guidelines - Officers.
Compensation-Related Risk Assessment
In fiscal 2021, the HCC Committee assessed each element of compensation - base salary, and short- and long-term incentives - as well as other plans covering employees in international locations to determine whether any of such elements or plans promotes excessive or unreasonable risk-taking. The HCC Committee determined that the Company's compensation policies and practices encourage behaviors that drive the performance of the Company as a whole and balance short-term results with longer-term results in the interests of shareholders. The HCC Committee determined that any risks arising from the Company's compensation policies and practices are not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company.

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Introduction
This Compensation Discussion and Analysis describes the material components of compensation paid to Modine's Principal Executive Officer, Principal Financial Officer, and other certain highly compensated executive officers, as described in the Summary Compensation Table on page 35. In the discussion below, we refer to this group of executives as the NEOs. This group includes the executive officers for whom specific compensation disclosure is required under the rules of the SEC. This group includes the following current and former executive officers:

Neil D. Brinker, President and Chief Executive Officer;

Thomas A. Burke, Former President and Chief Executive Officer;

Michael B. Lucareli, Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer; Vice President, Finance and Chief Financial Officer until May 21, 2021; Interim President and Chief Executive Officer from August 4, 2020 until December 1, 2020;

Sylvia A. Stein, Vice President, General Counsel, Corporate Secretary and Chief Compliance Officer;

Matthew J. McBurney, Vice President, Building HVAC;

Joel T. Casterton, Vice President Heavy Duty Equipment; and

Scott L. Bowser, Former Vice President, Commercial and Industrial Solutions and Chief Operating Officer.

Effective August 4, 2020, the Company entered into a Transition and Separation Agreement with Mr. Burke which was filed as Exhibit No. 10.6 to the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2020 (the 'Burke Transition Agreement'). Pursuant to the Burke Transition Agreement, the Board terminated Mr. Burke without 'Good Cause' from his position as President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, and Mr. Burke ceased to serve as a member of Modine's Board of Directors. From August 4, 2020 through August 28, 2020, Mr. Burke served as a Senior Advisor to the Company.
Mr. Lucareli was appointed Interim President and Chief Executive Officer effective August 4, 2020 and continued in both the roles of Interim President and Chief Executive Officer and Vice President, Finance and Chief Financial Officer until December 1, 2020. Effective December 1, 2020, Mr. Lucareli relinquished the position of Interim President and Chief Executive officer, and Mr. Brinker was named President and Chief Executive Officer of Modine. Mr. Lucareli then continued in his role of Vice President, Finance and Chief Financial Officer since December 1, 2020, until he was appointed Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer effective May 21, 2021.
Mr. Bowser ceased employment with the Company effective January 7, 2021 as the Company eliminated the senior executive positions of Vice President, Commercial and Industrial Solutions and Chief Operating Officer. The Company entered into a Letter Agreement with Mr. Bowser effective March 16, 2021, which was filed as Exhibit No. 10.23 to the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021 (the 'Bowser Letter Agreement'). The Bowser Letter Agreement included a Restrictive Covenant Agreement, which entitled Mr. Bowser to additional consideration in exchange for certain restrictions on his post-employment activities.
The compensation for these individuals is listed in the tables on pages 35 through 42 of this Proxy Statement.
In this Compensation Discussion and Analysis, we will also explain the objectives of our compensation programs, why we pay the compensation we do, and how that fits with the Company's commitment to provide value to our shareholders. When discussing the compensation of our CEO in this Compensation Discussion and Analysis, we are referring to the compensation of Mr. Brinker unless otherwise indicated.
Executive Summary
Executive Compensation Philosophy
The HCC Committee seeks to pay our NEOs fairly and to align executive compensation with the Company's performance. The HCC Committee believes this approach will enhance shareholder return over the long term.

Goals of the Executive Compensation Program
The HCC Committee seeks to help the Company achieve its short- and long-term financial goals and encourage its executive officers to act as owners of the Company. The HCC Committee believes these goals can be accomplished through a compensation program that provides a balanced mix of cash and equity-based compensation. Base salary is designed to attract and retain executives by compensating them for their day-to-day activities, level of responsibility and sustained individual performance. The annual short-term cash incentive is intended to reward recipients for the achievement of annual operating goals that are critical to the Company's short-term business objectives. The equity and performance cash portions of the compensation package provides incentives that are intended to focus executives on the Company's long-term success, align the executives' returns with those of shareholders, encourage long-term retention, and reward the executives for the Company's superior long-term performance.
Alignment of Objectives/Fiscal 2021 Financial Performance and Strategic Highlights
The HCC Committee believes the structure of its executive compensation program is aligned with the Company's overall performance in fiscal 2021. In fiscal 2021, among other things:

The Company completed a change in leadership, naming Mr. Neil D. Brinker as its President and Chief Executive Officer and a member of its Board effective December 1, 2020. Mr. Brinker has a commitment to operational excellence and his diverse experience, along with success executing profitable growth strategies, provide him with the skills needed to drive the Company's transformation to a diversified industrial company;


The Company reached agreements to sell both the liquid- and air-cooled automotive businesses, representing significant progress toward its strategic exit of the Automotive segment businesses. The sale of the air-cooled automotive business closed in April 2021. The sale of the liquid-cooled automotive business is subject to the receipt of governmental and third-party approvals and satisfaction of other closing conditions;


The Company instituted a series of actions in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, including enhancing employee safety through additional cleaning and social distancing, delaying capital expenditures where possible, and implementing cost-saving actions, including, but not limited to, employee salary reductions, furloughs and shortened work weeks. The Company withdrew most of the cost-saving actions in the third quarter of fiscal 2021 as production returned to more normal levels as markets recovered;


Under Mr. Brinker's leadership, the Company began implementing its new '80/20 strategy' to examine its businesses using data analytics in order to focus its resources on products and markets with the highest growth and best returns;


The Company reported an operating loss of $97.7 million and a loss per share of $4.11, which were largely driven by significant impairment charges recorded for assets of the held for sale liquid- and air-cooled automotive businesses. In addition, the Company recorded income tax charges totaling $116.5 million to increase valuation allowances on deferred tax assets in the U.S. and abroad, also contributing to the loss per share;


Despite challenging economic conditions, the Company reported adjusted EBITDA of $164.8 million and adjusted earnings per share of $1.14; and


The Company achieved $149.8 million of cash flows from operating activities and $117.1 million of free cash flow.

For a reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA, adjusted earnings per share, and free cash flow, which are non-GAAP financial measures, to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, please see the financial tables included in Exhibit 99.1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K furnished to the SEC by Modine on May 26, 2021.
Fiscal 2021 Compensation Highlights
The HCC Committee's actions in fiscal 2021 included the following:

Led a successful search for a new President and Chief Executive Officer, resulting in the hiring of Neil D. Brinker to replace Thomas A. Burke following Mr. Burke's departure in August 2020.


Set CEO and CFO compensation at or near the median of Modine's peer group of companies and the median of a broad survey of manufacturing companies, weighted equally, and compensation for the other NEOs at or near the median of a broad survey of manufacturing companies in order to meet its objective of offering competitive compensation, utilizing an analysis provided by Farient.

Table of Contents

Approved Free Cash Flow Margin ('FCF%') and Adjusted EBITDA Growth as the equally-weighted performance metrics in the Management Incentive Plan ('MIP') (the short-term cash bonus plan) for fiscal 2021. These performance goals drive alignment of management and shareholders' interests both as a measure of capital efficiency and in achieving our earnings growth targets.


Due to the uncertainty surrounding the impact of COVID-19 on the Company's performance and overall markets, and the Company's desire to preserve cash, at its May 2020 meeting, the HCC Committee elected to defer its final determination of the timing and amount of the fiscal 2020 MIP payment until its October 2020 meeting. At its October 2020 meeting, the HCC Committee approved a full payment of the amounts earned under the fiscal 2020 MIP. This payment amounted to 22% of Target for fiscal 2020, and the amounts paid to each NEO thereunder are reflected in the Summary Compensation Table on page 35 as Non-Equity Incentive Plan Compensation.


Approved Average Cash Flow Return on Invested Capital ('Cash Flow ROI') and Average Annual Revenue Growth as the performance metrics for the Long-Term Incentive Plan (the 'LTIP') for fiscal 2021 to incentivize meeting and exceeding the Company's operating performance goals over the three-year performance cycle. The two metrics are designed to focus management on key metrics and provide a compelling long-term incentive plan with carefully selected standards, mitigating risk by avoiding short-term gains at the expense of the long-term health of the Company. The long-term pay orientation of the Company's compensation system (compensation mix and time horizon of the LTIP) appropriately reflects the capital-intensive nature, the investment time horizon and customer planning time horizon (i.e., long-term orders and partnering for end-product production) of the business.


Because the Company experienced a decline in its share price, largely associated with the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company had an insufficient number of 2017 Incentive Compensation Plan shares available to deliver the FY21-23 LTIP equity awards to its participants. Due to this shortfall, the decision was made to delay these awards and also grant performance cash awards in lieu of performance-based stock awards, as further described in the section titled Grants under the Long-Term Incentive Plan for Plan Commencing in Fiscal 2021 on page 28. The Company's 2020 Incentive Compensation Plan and share request was approved in July 2020, and this allowed the Company to move forward with its fiscal 2021 LTIP grants. To minimize share utilization, the Company replaced the performance share component of its LTIP design with a performance cash component. The performance cash target remained at the same 40% of the overall LTIP plan.


Reviewed the composition of the Company's peer group used for CEO and CFO compensation and company performance comparisons.


Conducted a risk assessment of the Company's compensation practices and found no evidence of unreasonable risk taking in the Company's compensation plans and arrangements.


Reviewed the Company's succession plan for each executive officer and other key employees of the Company.


Entered into certain CEO Transition Retention Agreement Letters with Messrs. Lucareli, McBurney, and Bowser and Ms. Stein to provide a retention incentive for such NEOs in connection with the transition of the CEO position from Mr. Burke to Mr. Brinker.


Established compensation for the Board of Directors, utilizing analysis provided by Farient.


Reviewed the Company's guidelines regarding stock ownership requirements for Company officers and members of the Board of Directors and confirmed compliance therewith.


Reviewed regulatory, shareholder and market changes, including governance best practices as applicable to the Company.


Reviewed status of equity spend under the 2020 Incentive Plan, the 2017 Incentive Compensation Plan, and the Amended and Restated 2008 Incentive Compensation Plan (collectively, the 'Incentive Plans').


Reviewed CEO pay-for-performance alignment, utilizing analysis provided by Farient.

Shareholder Advisory Vote on Executive Compensation
A nonbinding advisory vote on the compensation of the Company's NEOs received the affirmative vote of over 92% of the shares represented at the 2020 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, demonstrating very strong support for the Company's executive compensation program. Nonetheless, the Company and HCC Committee are mindful of the results of the shareholder advisory vote and take the vote into consideration when determining and evaluating the Company's executive compensation philosophy, program and disclosure. For example, the Company has continued its ongoing efforts to be fully transparent about the link between pay and performance in its Pay for Performance discussion immediately below. In addition, during one-on-one conversations, sponsored road shows and other regular communications with shareholders, the Company routinely discusses its performance in the context of underlying incentive compensation metrics and emphasizes management's active use of those same metrics in the Company's daily operations.
Pay for Performance
The HCC Committee believes that the Company's compensation program should encourage management to create long-term, sustained value for shareholders and to act like owners of the Company. To achieve this objective, the compensation program is designed to balance short- and long-term considerations while rewarding management in a way that reflects the Company's performance over time. The HCC Committee further supports this objective with a strong pay-for-performance philosophy.
The key elements of the Company's executive compensation program that support the pay-for-performance philosophy include:

A median compensation positioning strategy that targets total pay as well as each element of compensation at the median of the market, and allows actual compensation to vary from the median based on higher or lower performance, i.e., above median for above-market performance and below median for below-market performance;

A significant portion of compensation tied to performance, including short-term and long-term incentives tied to strong financial/operational performance;

Use of measures of performance for incentives that balance strong growth and returns and provide a direct link to shareholder value over time;

A significant weighting on long-term incentives, particularly performance stock or performance cash; and

Share ownership guidelines (described on page 32), requiring that executives be meaningfully invested in the Company's stock, and therefore be personally invested in the Company's performance.
As has been the case in previous years, in fiscal 2021, the HCC Committee requested that Farient, the HCC Committee's independent compensation consultant, assess the relationship between our executive compensation and performance over time, with particular focus on the CEO.
To conduct this analysis, Farient used its alignment methodology to test whether the Company's Performance-Adjusted CompensationTM ('PAC'TM) is: (1) reasonable for the Company's revenue size, peer group and total shareholder return ('TSR') performance; and (2) sensitive to the Company's TSR over time, given that TSR is an objective, transparent measure that shareholders generally rely upon when conducting a long-term pay-for-performance evaluation. PAC measures compensation outcomes after performance has occurred, rather than target compensation, which represents 'expected' compensation before performance has occurred. Farient compared the CEO's PAC (including actual salary, actual short-term incentive awards, and performance-adjusted long-term incentive values) over rolling 3-year periods to TSR for the same rolling 3-year periods, and tested the results against those same variables for companies in the industry groups that are most relevant to Modine, namely Capital Goods and Automobiles and Components. The Company's PAC was then compared to a range of values, as indicated by the upper and lower boundaries on the chart below. This range reflects reasonable compensation outcomes, as determined by the companies in the relevant industries, for the performance achieved. All PAC values on the chart, current and historical, for both the Company as well as for the companies in the relevant industry groups, are adjusted to reflect the Company's current size of approximately $1.8 billion in revenue.
Farient's analysis of the Company's pay for performance indicates that the CEO's compensation historically has been and continues to be strongly aligned with the Company's performance and shareholder interests in that it is both reasonable and closely correlated to Company performance over time. Farient reached this conclusion, with which the HCC Committee agreed, because the data points for the Company's CEOs have historically been below the upper boundary, which indicates reasonable compensation, and because the PAC generally moves up as performance rises, and generally moves down as performance falls. There were two non-interim CEOs in fiscal 2021 during the CEO transition, and compensation for both CEOs during 2021 is included in the three-year period from 2019 through 2021. PAC for the three-year period from 2019 through 2021 was closely aligned with performance, even with compensation for two CEOs in 2021. PAC for Mr. Burke in 2021 included severance compensation, but no incentive payouts as he did not receive any such payouts. PAC for Mr. Brinker in 2021 reflected an annual incentive payout of 100% of Target due to the Company's performance versus its predetermined objectives for the fiscal 2021 MIP, but no payout for the fiscal 2019-2021 performance stock awards cycle as he was not an employee of Modine at the time of the grants. 'Make-whole' compensation paid to Mr. Brinker as part of his hiring was not included in PAC for 2021. The Pay For Performance Alignment chart below has been modified from prior years' charts to reduce the number of pay and performance alignment points from ten to five to reflect more current pay and performance alignment.

Market Benchmarking of Executive Pay
The HCC Committee targets total pay, as well as each element of compensation, at the median of a peer group of companies and the median of a broad survey of manufacturing companies, weighted equally, for the CEO and CFO, and at the median of a broad survey of manufacturing companies for the other NEOs. The HCC Committee believes that targeting the median is an objective way of ensuring that the Company's executive compensation practices are competitive and reasonable relative to the broader market. Actual pay may vary from the median based on differences in individual performance, job responsibilities, tenure and experience for the individuals being compared, as well as based on actual performance of the Company.
Use of Peer Group
During fiscal 2021, the HCC Committee reviewed the composition of the Company's peer group. As a group, the peers have characteristics and markets similar to those of the Company. These characteristics and markets are as follows:

U.S. headquartered companies traded on major U.S. exchanges involved in these industries: industrial machinery; construction machinery and heavy trucks; agriculture and farm machinery; auto parts and equipment; electrical components and equipment; and building products (HVAC-related);

Companies with revenue between $700 million and $4.5 billion (approximately 0.4 to 2.3 times Modine's revenue of $2.0 billion at the time of the peer group review), with proxy pay data size adjusted to approximate pay for a company with revenue of $1.8 billion; and

Technology-intensive companies with a strong focus on OEM suppliers, distributed product expertise and global industrial customers in the vehicular and industrial/commercial (e.g., HVAC&R) arena.

Based on its review, and in anticipation of the future disposition of Modine's Automotive business segment, the HCC Committee changed the composition of the peer group for fiscal 2021 by removing Briggs & Stratton Corporation, due to its reorganization, Westinghouse Air Brake Technologies Corporation, due to an increase in revenue putting it well beyond the size of an appropriate comparator, and WABCO Holdings Inc., following its acquisition by a privately held company. The HCC Committee elected not to add any new peers, preferring to reassess the Company's peer group following the divestiture of the Automotive business segment.

The HCC Committee uses the publicly available peer group data to assist in the evaluation of the:


Compensation levels of the Company's CEO and CFO;

Company's compensation practices; and

Company's relative performance and relative pay for performance for specified periods of time.

Use of Compensation Survey Data
The HCC Committee used the 2020 Mercer U.S. Executive Benchmark Database (the 'Database'), which compiles data of manufacturing companies with revenues between approximately $1.0 billion and $2.5 billion to evaluate competitive pay levels of certain corporate officers and other key employees in addition to those of the CEO and CFO, and with revenues approximating each business unit to evaluate competitive pay levels of certain officers and other key employees who are heads of business units. Survey pay data was size adjusted to approximate pay for an approximately $1.8 billion revenue company at the time of benchmarking for corporate officers and key corporate employees, and to approximate pay for business units with revenue similar to those of Modine's business units for officers and key employees who are heads of business units. Mercer did not identify, and the HCC Committee was not aware of, the identities of the companies whose information is reflected in the Database. The HCC Committee recognizes that the Company attracts employees from a broad range of companies and its comparison data reflects that fact. The HCC Committee does not use the survey data in a formulaic manner. If the compensation of a particular NEO is substantially greater or less than the median in the survey for the same position, the HCC Committee takes the survey information into account when setting base salary, short-term and long-term incentive target values, but also exercises its discretion, taking into consideration the individual's performance, tenure, experience and changes in job responsibilities.
The overall resulting pay positioning for the corporate officers and other key employees as a group is slightly below the median of the market data as defined above.
Description of Executive Compensation Program
The HCC Committee sets the compensation philosophy at Modine in a manner intended to promote the Company's achievement of its short- and long-term financial goals and encourage its executive officers to act as owners of the Company. In addition, the HCC Committee focuses on attracting and retaining employees who are qualified, motivated and committed to excellence. The HCC Committee believes these goals can be accomplished through a compensation program that provides a balanced mix of cash and equity-based compensation. Base salary is designed to attract and retain executives by compensating them for their day-to-day activities, level of responsibility and sustained individual performance. The short-term cash incentive is intended to reward the recipients for achievement of annual operating goals that are critical to the Company's short-term business objectives. The long-term portion of the compensation package provides incentives that are intended to focus executives on the Company's long-term success, align the executives' returns with those of shareholders, encourage long-term retention, and reward executives for the Company's superior long-term performance.

-23-
Table of Contents
The HCC Committee's actions are guided by the following principles:

Compensation is a primary factor in attracting and retaining employees, and the Company can only achieve its goals if it attracts and retains qualified and highly skilled people;

All elements of executive compensation, including base salary, targeted annual incentives (cash-based), and targeted long-term incentives (both equity- and cash-based), are set to levels that the HCC Committee believes ensure that executives are fairly, but not excessively, compensated;

Strong financial and operational performance is expected, and shareholder value must be preserved and enhanced over time;

Compensation must be linked to the interests of shareholders and the most effective means of ensuring this linkage is by granting equity incentives such as stock awards, stock options and performance stock or cash awards;

Historically, operating units of the Company have been interdependent, and the Company, as a whole, has benefited from cooperation and close collaboration among individual units, making it important for the Company's incentive plans to reward overall corporate results and focus on priorities that impact the total Company; however, going forward, the Company will use 80/20 principles to more clearly segment the organization, which may lead to a shift in the Company's incentive plan approach in fiscal year 2023; and

The executive compensation program should reflect the economic condition of the Company, as well as Company performance relative to peers, so that in a year in which the Company underperforms, the compensation of the executive officers should be lower than in years when the Company is achieving or exceeding its objectives.
As reflected in this Compensation Discussion and Analysis, the HCC Committee believes the compensation program is aligned with these principles.
Treatment of the CEO
The CEO participates in the same programs and receives compensation generally based upon the same factors as the other NEOs. However, the level of the CEO's compensation is even more heavily dependent upon the Company's performance than the compensation of other NEOs. Mr. Brinker's overall compensation (and Mr. Burke's, during his tenure as the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer) reflects a greater degree of policy- and decision-making authority and a higher level of responsibility for the strategic direction and financial and operational results of the Company. Given the President and Chief Executive Officer's key role in policy- and decision-making, the HCC Committee believes that the CEO's compensation should be weighted more heavily toward long-term incentive awards so the CEO's compensation more directly correlates with the Company's performance.

Base Salary
Base salary is designed to attract and retain executives by compensating them for their day-to-day activities, level of responsibility and sustained individual performance. Individual performance, based upon achievement of annual performance objectives and demonstration of leadership behaviors as reflected in each employee's performance development plan, is a key component in determining base salary and any adjustments to base salary, and is a subjective determination made by the HCC Committee and, for the NEOs other than the CEO, the CEO. The determination of base salary affects every other element of executive compensation because all of the other components, including short-term, performance-based awards, long-term incentive compensation payouts, retirement benefits and severance, are based on the amount of the individual's base salary. The HCC Committee annually reviews base salaries of the NEOs to ensure that the compensation levels are aligned with the HCC Committee's principles, based on individual responsibility, performance and job scope.
Due to the uncertainty surrounding the impact of COVID-19 on the Company's performance and overall markets, and the Company's desire to preserve cash, the HCC Committee decided that none of the FY20 NEOs would receive a base salary increase with respect to their positions. However, Mr. Lucareli did receive an increase to his base salary for the August 1, 2020 to December 1, 2020 period where he served as Interim President and Chief Executive Officer, with such increase reflecting Mr. Lucareli's increased responsibilities during that time, as reflected in the base salary table on page 26. Additionally, prior to Mr. McBurney becoming a named executive officer, the HCC approved a targeted base salary increase for him that took into consideration both subjective and objective criteria, including his individual responsibilities and performance, and his compensation relative to the market midpoint for his function. Also, Mr. Burke's base salary was reduced by 20% from April 13, 2020 until his departure on August 28, 2020, and all other NEOs' base salaries were reduced by 10% from April 13, 2020 to October 11, 2020.

CEO Base Salary
For Mr. Burke, the Governance Committee, working with the HCC Committee, evaluated his individual performance as the Company's CEO by evaluating the achievement of his performance development plan goals. Historically, following discussion with the former CEO, the HCC Committee recommended the CEO's base salary to the Board of Directors based upon this evaluation. The Company intends to continue this practice moving forward with respect to Mr. Brinker serving as the Company's CEO. Upon Mr. Brinker's hire, Modine approved a base salary for Mr. Brinker appropriate for a new CEO, which was positioned below the median of CEO compensation relative to CEO positions of Modine's peer group.
Short-Term, Performance-Based Cash Award
The Management Incentive Plan (the 'MIP') is Modine's broadly applicable short-term, performance cash award plan designed to motivate and reward the Company's leaders. All NEOs participate in the MIP. The HCC Committee's objectives for the MIP are to encourage continuous (short-term) operational improvements with metrics that also drive total shareholder return. The HCC Committee believes the MIP metrics should be challenging but achievable and well-defined so they are understood by the MIP participants and, accordingly, actively drive results.
Due to the uncertainty surrounding the impact of COVID-19 on the Company's performance and overall markets, and the Company's desire to preserve cash, at its May 2020 meeting, the HCC Committee elected to defer its final determination of the timing and amount of the fiscal 2020 MIP payment until its October 2020 meeting. At its October 2020 meeting, the HCC Committee approved a full payment of the amounts earned under the fiscal 2020 MIP. This payment amounted to 22% of Target for fiscal 2020, and the amounts paid to each NEO thereunder are reflected in the Summary Compensation Table on page 35 as Non-Equity Incentive Plan Compensation. Mr. Burke's employment with the Company terminated prior to the HCC Committee's action to approve the fiscal 2020 MIP payment. However, pursuant to the Burke Transition Agreement, the Company agreed to pay Mr. Burke $214,500 with respect to the fiscal 2020 MIP, which amounted to 22% of Target for fiscal 2020. This amount has been reflected in the Summary Compensation Table on page 35 as Non-Equity Incentive Plan Compensation, together with the fiscal 2021 MIP payments.
The HCC Committee approved the use of two independent and equally-weighted performance goals for the fiscal 2021 MIP. In fiscal 2021, the MIP continued to use the FCF% metric, but the HCC Committee replaced the Adjusted Operating Income Growth metric with Adjusted EBITDA Growth for the second metric. The switch to Adjusted EBITDA Growth allows the Company to retain its focus on earnings-based metrics, but presents a more meaningful comparison across business units and time periods. For purposes of the MIP, FCF% is equal to Adjusted Free Cash Flow, which is 'Net cash provided by operating activities,' less 'Expenditures for property, plant and equipment,' plus or minus Permitted Adjustments, with such Adjusted Free Cash Flow divided by 'Net sales,' all as reported externally for the Company's financial statements. Adjusted EBITDA Growth is the simple arithmetic percentage change in Adjusted EBITDA for fiscal 2021 less Adjusted EBITDA for fiscal 2020, with that amount divided by Adjusted EBITDA for fiscal 2020. Adjusted EBITDA represents 'Operating Income' plus 'Depreciation and Amortization Expenses', each as reported for the Company's audited financial statements, plus or minus Permitted Adjustments. Permitted Adjustments include impairment charges, restructuring-related expenses, acquisition- and divestiture-related costs and adjustments and certain other gains and charges. The impact of the adoption of new U.S. GAAP accounting standards and significant changes in the Company's accounting methods is another Permitted Adjustment. The Committee has negative discretion to disregard any Permitted Adjustments if disregarding any of them would result in a reduction of payment. In addition, under the 2020 Incentive Plan, the HCC Committee has negative discretion to reduce the amounts otherwise payable under the MIP, but may not increase such amount.
The HCC Committee chose to use the FCF% metric because it aligns management incentives with shareholder interests; is a measure of capital efficiency, including capital spending and working capital management. The HCC Committee chose to use the Adjusted EBITDA Growth metric to incentivize increased earnings and shareholder return. The HCC Committee considered the Company's business plan, as well as seven years of historical performance results for Modine and 85 companies consisting of the compensation peers and other vehicle and capital goods manufacturing companies with revenues between $750 million and $7 billion when setting the FCF% and Adjusted EBITDA Growth goals. As a result, for the fiscal 2021 MIP, the HCC Committee set the FCF% Threshold, Target and Maximum goals at 1.5%, 4.5% and 7.5%, respectively. With respect to Adjusted EBITDA Growth, the HCC Committee maintained the Threshold, Target and Maximum goals at 2%, 6% and 12%, respectively. The HCC Committee maintained payout percentages for each goal at the same levels as for the fiscal 2020 MIP.

Assuming Threshold achievement for each metric, each of the NEOs would receive 10 percent of the Target amount. Assuming Maximum level achievement for each metric, each of the NEOs would receive 200 percent of the Target amount. The Company pays amounts between the Threshold and Target and/or between Target and Maximum levels on a linear basis for achievement above Threshold and below Maximum.
Assuming achievement of the Target level for each metric, the NEOs would receive the following percentages of base salary:

For the time period during which Mr. Lucareli served as the Company's Interim President and Chief Executive Officer (August 1, 2020 to November 30, 2020), the Board increased his MIP Target payout percentage from 70% to 100%. As a result, Mr. Lucareli's MIP Target payout was calculated by applying his Target percentage of 100% to his base salary of $650,000 from August 1, 2020 to November 30, 2020, and applying his Target percentage of 70% to his base salary of $470,000 for the remainder of fiscal 2021. The percentages for Ms. Stein, Mr. McBurney and Mr. Casterton were each increased from 50% to 60% in fiscal 2021, in each case to better align the NEO with market expectations. The percentages for Mr. Burke and Mr. Bowser did not change in fiscal 2021.

For purposes of the MIP metrics, the Company's FCF% for fiscal 2021 was 8.0 percent, and Adjusted EBITDA Growth was (5.5) percent. As a result, the Committee approved of a payment for the MIP participants at 200 percent of Target for the FCF% metric. No payout was achieved for the Adjusted EBITDA Growth metric. Both metrics were weighted equally, for a total combined approved MIP payment at 100 percent of Target. Pursuant to the terms of the Burke Transition Agreement, Mr. Burke did not receive any payout under the fiscal 2021 MIP. Pursuant to the terms of his Restrictive Covenant Agreement, Mr. Bowser received a prorated portion of the MIP payment based upon his months of active employment during fiscal 2021.
Long-Term Incentive Compensation
The long-term incentive element of the Company's executive compensation program is intended to attract, retain and motivate key employees who directly impact the performance of the Company over a timeframe greater than a year. Long-term compensation may be equity or cash-based, or a combination of each, and in any event, is structured so that the interests of the Company's executive officers and other key employees are directly aligned with the interests of shareholders. The long-term portion of the compensation package provides an incentive that rewards superior long-term performance and provides financial consequences for underperformance.
Performance Stock under the Long-Term Incentive Plan for Performance Period Ending in 2021
The performance period for Performance Stock under the long-term incentive compensation plan initiated in May 2018 was completed as of March 31, 2021. The amount of the potential award varied based upon the achievement of Threshold, Target or Maximum performance levels. The Company used two measures to determine payouts- three-year average Cash Flow ROI and three-year Average Annual Revenue Growth ('Revenue Growth'). For purposes of the LTIP, Cash Flow ROI means Adjusted Free Cash Flow (as defined with respect to MIP, above), plus cash interest, which is cash paid for interest expense related to outstanding debt, with the total amount divided by average capital employed. The calculation of Cash Flow ROI is based on a three-year average Cash Flow ROI for fiscal 2019 through fiscal 2021 with average capital employed determined over five points (i.e., the last day of each fiscal quarter and prior fiscal year-end). Revenue Growth is the simple three-year average of the Company's annual change in revenue over the performance period, as reported for the Company's audited financial statements. Each metric for performance stock awards is calculated independently of the other metric, and each was weighted at 50 percent of the total award. The Threshold performance goal was the minimum performance goal that must have been achieved by the Company for the NEOs to earn shares of common stock.

For the performance period ended in fiscal 2021, the Company's three-year average Cash Flow ROI was 11.1 percent, which resulted in a payout equal to 118 percent of Target for the Cash Flow ROI metric. The Company's three-year Revenue Growth was (4.7) percent, and therefore no payout was earned for the Revenue Growth metric. Overall, both metrics were weighted equally, and the payout under the LTIP for the Performance Stock was 59 percent of the Target for the total award. As a result of Mr. Burke's cessation of employment with the Company, Mr. Burke forfeited the right to receive Performance Stock under the Long-Term Incentive Plan for the performance period ending in fiscal 2021. As part of his Restrictive Covenant Agreement, Mr. Bowser received a full payout of Performance Stock, based on actual performance, equal to 59 percent of the Target for the total award, under the Long-Term Incentive Plan for the performance period ending in fiscal 2021.
Grants under the Long-Term Incentive Plan for Plan Commencing in Fiscal 2021
In fiscal 2021 the HCC Committee approved long-term performance grants as a percentage of base salary and included the use of performance cash awards as part of the Company's long-term incentive compensation plan. Because the Company experienced a decline in its share price, largely associated with the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company had an insufficient number of authorized shares available under the 2017 Incentive Compensation Plan to grant the FY21-23 LTIP equity awards to its participants at the time it would normally make such grants in May 2020. Due to this shortfall, the decision was made to delay these awards and also grant performance cash awards in lieu of performance-based stock, as further described below. The Company's 2020 Incentive Compensation Plan share request was approved in July 2020, allowing the Company to move forward with its fiscal 2021 LTIP grants, which it did in October 2020. For fiscal 2021, the Company's long-term incentive plan included:
Performance Cash Awards (40 percent of long-term incentive dollars at Target). To minimize share utilization, for fiscal 2021 the Company replaced the performance share component of its LTIP design with a performance cash component. Performance cash is earned by achieving corporate financial goals over a three-year period (ending March 31, 2023) and will be paid after the end of that three-year period. Payout levels vary based upon the achievement of Threshold, Target or Maximum goals in each of the Cash Flow ROI and Revenue Growth metrics, as described below. Once earned, the performance cash awards are not subject to any restriction. Determinations of the achievement of performance goals for the performance cash awards are not made until the Company's audited financial statements covering the last year in the performance period are completed and the results for the fiscal year are announced publicly.
Stock Options (20 percent of long-term incentive dollars at Target). The HCC Committee believes that stock options focus executives on driving long-term performance. Stock options have an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the common stock on the effective date of the grant so recipients recognize a value only if and to the extent that the value of the common stock increases. The stock options granted in fiscal 2021 vest in four equal annual installments commencing on the first anniversary of the effective date of the grant. The stock options expire ten years from the date of grant.
Retention Restricted Stock Unit Awards (40 percent of long-term incentive dollars at Target). Retention restricted stock unit awards reward employees for their continued commitment to the Company. The Company grants the employees restricted stock units which vest in four equal annual installments commencing on the first anniversary of the effective date of the grant.
In fiscal 2021, the HCC Committee utilized two metrics for the award of performance cash awards - Cash Flow ROI and Revenue Growth over the three-year performance period. Each metric for performance cash awards is weighted at 50 percent and is calculated independently of the other metric. These two metrics are intended to reward long-term growth and the creation of shareholder value through the profitable deployment of additional capital and free cash flow generation, and to emphasize the importance of revenue growth for the Company. The Threshold performance goal is the minimum performance goal that must be achieved by the Company for the participants to earn cash pursuant to a performance cash award.

Table of Contents
For purposes of the LTIP, Cash Flow ROI and Revenue Growth have the same meanings set forth in the section above titled Performance Stock under the Long-Term Incentive Plan for Performance Period Ending in 2021, provided the calculation of each metric will be based on a three-year period beginning with fiscal 2021 and ending with fiscal 2023.
For the fiscal 2021 through fiscal 2023 LTIP, the HCC Committee considered the Company's business plan as well as seven years of historical performance results for Modine and 85 companies consisting of the compensation peers and other vehicle and capital goods manufacturing companies with revenues between $750 million and $7 billion when setting the Cash Flow ROI and Revenue Growth goals. As a result, the HCC Committee made no adjustments to the Threshold, Target or Maximum levels, or the payout percentages, compared to the fiscal 2020 through fiscal 2022 LTIP, for either Cash Flow ROI or Revenue Growth goals. The goals at the Threshold, Target, and Maximum levels are intended to incentivize participants to achieve the Threshold level and strive for greater performance beyond the Threshold level.
The specific three-year performance goals for the LTIP metrics for performance cash awards granted in fiscal 2021 are as follows:
Threshold
Target
Maximum
Cash Flow ROI
7

10.5

≥14%

10% of Target Awards
10% of Target Awards
Target
100% of Target Awards
100% of Target Awards
Maximum
200% of Target Awards
200% of Target Awards

If actual Cash Flow ROI or Revenue Growth for the performance period is between Threshold and Target and/or between Target and Maximum, the amount of performance cash earned will be determined on a linear basis. In the event that either the Company's actual Cash Flow ROI or Revenue Growth does not meet the Threshold for the performance period, no performance cash will be earned under that performance cash award metric. In the event that either the Company's actual Cash Flow ROI or Revenue Growth exceeds the Maximum for the performance period, only the Maximum percentage of the Target amount of performance cash for that metric will be earned. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the HCC Committee retains the discretion to decrease the amount of performance cash earned under the LTIP.
The Company uses Cash Flow ROI (a measure indicative of the cash flow return and efficiency of invested capital) to evaluate its financial performance, so the HCC Committee used the Cash Flow ROI metric to incentivize management to continue to improve the Company's financial performance. Similarly, because Revenue Growth is a key measure of growth that is easy to understand and communicate, theHCC Committee used the Revenue Growth metric to incentivize management to create additional shareholder value through the continued growth of the Company. For both metrics, the HCC Committee set the Threshold level at what it believed to be an acceptable return and set the Maximum level at what it believed to be exceptional performance with each corresponding to an appropriate competitive payout level. Achievement and payout for each measure is calculated and paid out independently of the other measure.
As mentioned above, the HCC Committee and, for Mr. Brinker (and Mr. Burke, during his tenure as the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer), the Board, approves the grants for each NEO under the long-term incentive plan as a percentage of base salary. Assuming achievement of the Target level for each metric under the performance cash awards, the NEOs would receive the following percentages of base salary in total grants under the long-term incentive plan approved in fiscal 2021:

Mr. Lucareli's percentage was increased by the Board from 175% to 200% at the time of his appointment as Interim President and Chief Executive Officer, and remained at that level following the appointment of Mr. Brinker to the role of President and Chief Executive Officer. The percentages for the remaining NEOs were unchanged from those for fiscal 2020; however, pursuant to the terms of the Burke Transition Agreement, the Company did not make any LTIP grants to Mr. Burke in fiscal 2021. The table below sets forth the number of shares subject to stock options and the number of restricted stock units issued to each NEO in fiscal 2021 as well as the value of performance cash that would be earned upon achievement of each of the long-term incentive plan metrics on March 31, 2023:

In connection with Mr. Bowser's January 2021 exit from Modine, and in accordance with the terms of the Bowser Letter Agreement, all grants made to Mr. Bowser pursuant to the LTIP commencing in fiscal 2021, except for the Restricted Stock Units scheduled to vest in October 2021 and October 2022 (24,530 total Restricted Stock Units), have been forfeited.
In addition to the above-described awards, Mr. Brinker was awarded certain retention restricted stock unit awards, performance cash awards, and cash-based award (collectively, the 'Make Whole Awards') under his employment agreement to make him whole with respect to certain unvested incentive compensation that was forfeited upon the termination of employment with his prior employer in order to join Modine. Pursuant to Mr. Brinker's employment agreement, the Make Whole Awards were issued subject to Modine's standard agreements for retention restricted stock unit awards and performance cash awards.

Executive Compensation in Fiscal 2022
For the fiscal 2022 MIP, the HCC Committee approved two metrics, FCF% and Adjusted EBITDA Growth, as the performance measures under the plan. Each metric remains unchanged from fiscal 2021 and will be determined in a similar manner as in fiscal 2021. Each metric is independent of the other, the metrics are equally weighted, and each metric will be adjusted to account for certain approved items.
For fiscal 2022, the HCC Committee approved the Company's LTIP for fiscal 2022 through fiscal 2024 to include: retention restricted stock unit awards (35 percent of long-term incentive dollars at Target); stock options (20 percent of long-term incentive dollars at Target); and performance cash awards (45 percent of long-term incentive dollars at Target). The HCC Committee adjusted the relative percentages among certain components of the LTIP grants for fiscal 2022, decreasing retention restricted stock unit awards from 40 percent to 35 percent of long-term incentive dollars at Target, and increasing performance cash awards from 40 percent to 45 percent of long-term incentive dollars at Target. The HCC made this adjustment to increase the emphasis on the Company's long-term performance and better align the Company with prevailing market practices. The vesting schedules for retention restricted stock unit awards and stock options are the same, namely 25 percent each year over a period of four years, beginning on the first anniversary of the grant. Performance cash awards have a three-year performance period, which is the same duration as in prior years, and the HCC Committee approved two performance metrics - three-year Average Cash Flow ROI and three-year Average Adjusted EBITDA Growth. The Average Cash Flow ROI metric remains unchanged from fiscal 2021 and will be determined in a similar manner as in fiscal 2021, while the Average Adjusted EBITDA Growth metric replaces the Average Annual Revenue Growth metric. Average Adjusted EBITDA Growth will be the simple average of the Adjusted EBITDA Growth for each year during the performance period, with Adjusted EBITDA Growth determined in a similar manner as in the fiscal 2022 MIP. Each metric is independent of the other and the metrics are weighted equally at 50 percent each.

Employment and Post-Employment Benefits
General Benefit
The NEOs receive the same basic employee benefits that are offered by the Company to all salaried employees within the region where the individual resides. These benefits include medical and dental coverage, disability insurance and life insurance. The cost of these benefits is partially borne by the employee, including each NEO.
The Company does not generally provide perquisites to any of the NEOs.
Retirement Benefits for U.S. Employees
The Company offers retirement benefits to its employees through tax-qualified plans, including the Modine Manufacturing Company 401(k) Retirement Plan (formerly known as the Modine 401(k) Plan for Salaried Employees), which is an employee and employer funded 'Safe Harbor' plan. In recent years, the Company has contributed to participant 401(k) accounts (including NEO participants) a Safe Harbor Matching Contribution equal to 100 percent of the first 3 percent of compensation that an employee contributes to the Plan as an Elective Deferral for the Plan Year, plus 50 percent of the next 3 percent of compensation that an employee contributes as an Elective Deferral for the Plan Year. For eligible NEOs and eligible senior managers whose eligible compensation exceeds the IRS annual compensation limit, the Company has applied this matching formula to the applicable over-the-limit compensation and this amount is contributed to the Modine Deferred Compensation Plan. The Company did not make any additional contributions to the Modine Manufacturing Company 401(k) Retirement Plan for fiscal 2021.
While the Modine Manufacturing Company 401(k) Retirement Plan 'Safe Harbor' contribution is available to the Company's eligible employees in the U.S., each individual participant's 401(k) plan balance may vary due to a combination of differing annual amounts contributed by the employee, the investment choices of the participant (the same investment choices are available to all participants in the plan) and the number of years the person has participated in the 401(k) plan. Additionally, each eligible NEO's and senior manager's Deferred Compensation Plan balance may vary due to a combination of differing annual amounts contributed by the employee, the employee's annual eligible compensation, the investment choices of the participant (the same investment choices are available to all eligible NEOs and senior managers in the plan) and the number of years the employee has participated in the Deferred Compensation Plan.
In fiscal 2020, the Company made matching contributions to an NEO's account under the 401(k) Retirement Plan or Deferred Compensation Plan, as applicable, equal to the sum of 100 percent of the first 3 percent of compensation an NEO elected to contribute to the 401(k) Retirement Plan or Deferred Compensation Plan, as applicable, and 50 percent of the next 3 percent of compensation an NEO elected to contribute to the 401(k) Retirement Plan or Deferred Compensation Plan, as applicable. However, due to the uncertainty surrounding the impact of COVID-19 on the Company's performance and overall markets, and the Company's desire to preserve cash, effective as of July 15, 2020, the Company suspended matching of employee contributions to participant 401(k) accounts and Deferred Compensation Plan accounts. Effective January 1, 2021, the Company resumed 'Safe Harbor' contributions to participant 401(k) accounts and Deferred Compensation Plan accounts.
The Company's defined benefit pension plan, which is frozen, is more fully described in the Pension Benefits Table for Fiscal 2021 below. Mr. Lucareli and Mr. McBurney participate in the Company's defined benefit pension plan, as did Mr. Bowser prior to his cessation of employment effective January 7, 2021. Mr. Brinker, Mr. Burke, Ms. Stein and Mr. Casterton joined the Company after the defined benefit pension plan was closed to new participants.

-31-
Table of Contents
In addition to the employee benefits applicable to U.S. employees in general, certain highly compensated employees of the Company, including the NEOs, may participate in the following plans:
Deferred Compensation Plan. The Deferred Compensation Plan is a nonqualified plan that allows a highly compensated employee to defer up to 10 percent of base salary. Salary deferred pursuant to the Deferred Compensation Plan is an asset of the Company. The sums deferred do not earn a preferential rate of return and the investment alternatives are generally the same as the 401(k) Retirement Plan. Payments out of the Deferred Compensation Plan are not made until termination of service or retirement. As part of the Company's objective of restoring in this plan amounts that exceeded the allowable Company match and Company contributions to the 401(k) Retirement Plan because of statutory limits, the Company contributes an amount equal to the amount of the employer match and employer contribution that was not allowed to be contributed to the 401(k) Retirement Plan for such individuals due to statutory limits.
Executive Supplemental Retirement Plan ('SERP'). The SERP is a nonqualified pension plan. The SERP, like the defined benefit pension plan, is frozen and intended to be an extension of the Company's qualified pension plan. Under the SERP, salary and bonus that are in excess of statutory limits are taken into account in determining nonqualified benefits payable to an employee.
Severance Plan
The Company has a severance plan that was last updated by the HCC Committee in fiscal 2012 (the 'Severance Plan') for members of the Executive Council as recommended to the Committee by the Company's CEO, to ensure consistent treatment of individuals in such positions in the event of an involuntary termination of employment without cause. The Severance Plan provides that such individuals would be paid their annual base salary at the time of termination in installment payments over the course of the year following termination, and would be eligible to elect Company-paid COBRA continuation coverage for one year following termination. In order to receive these benefits, participants are required to release the Company from any and all liability. Additionally, the Severance Plan provides certain benefits in the event of an NEO's termination of employment in connection with a change in control of the Company. See Potential Post-Employment Payments below for additional information about benefits under the Severance Plan. All NEOs other than Mr. Brinker (who has a separate employment and change in control agreement) and Mr. Burke (who had a separate employment agreement and entered into the Burke Transition Agreement) are covered (or, in the case of Mr. Bowser who entered into the Bowser Letter Agreement, was covered) under the Severance Plan.
Share Ownership Guidelines - Officers
The Company has maintained share ownership guidelines for directors and officers of the Company, including the NEOs, since 2008. The Board continues to believe that directors and officers should have a meaningful personal investment in the Company. Only shares of stock, either restricted or unrestricted, count toward compliance with the guidelines.
The current guidelines, which were updated in 2020, provide that, on the fifth anniversary of appointment to the position, the President and CEO is expected to hold shares of Company stock with a value of at least five times his annual base salary. In addition, the guidelines now do not distinguish between NEOs and other executive officers and provide that all executive officers, other than the President and CEO, are expected to hold shares of Company stock with a value of at least three times their current annual base salary. The stock value is determined by using the higher of the stock price at the time of measurement or the average stock price over the previous three years. The HCC Committee reviews the guidelines and compliance therewith on at least an annual basis. The chair of the Governance Committee evaluates whether an exception should be made for any officer, who, due to his or her unique financial circumstances or other extenuating circumstances, would incur a hardship by complying with the applicable guideline after the initial five-year period and, in such an event, may make an exception to the guidelines for such individual. Additionally, the guidelines may be temporarily waived for an officer who has an unusual personal circumstance or is approaching retirement and has a need to diversify his/her stock holdings. Each of the NEOs who has been an officer of the Company for at least five years is currently in compliance with the stock ownership guidelines.
Related Policies Applicable to Executive Officers
Under the Company's Insider Trading Policy, all directors and executive officers, including the NEOs, are prohibited from holding shares of Company stock in a margin account or otherwise pledging shares of Company stock in any way, and all directors and employees, including their designees, of the Company are prohibited from engaging in hedging or monetizing transactions involving Company stock. The HCC Committee has also implemented an incentive compensation recoupment (or 'clawback') policy. Effective beginning with awards granted in fiscal 2013, the clawback policy requires forfeiture or repayment of any awards granted under the Incentive Plan (i.e., the MIP (cash bonus) or any long-term incentive awards) if the HCC Committee determines that a participant committed an act of misconduct that is adverse, or reasonably expected to be adverse, to the best interests of the Company or its shareholders.

Employment Agreements
The Company entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Brinker during fiscal 2021 that governs his employment terms and provides for certain post-termination benefits. Additionally, Mr. Brinker's employment agreement provided initial benefits of relocation expenses and a make whole cash award, both subject to twelve (12) months of continued employment (with exceptions for terminations without Cause, due to death or disability, or a Good Reason termination) from his employment start date, and Make Whole Awards (as described above in the section titled Long-Term Incentive Compensation). The amount of Mr. Brinker's relocation expenses is set forth below in the All Other Compensation Table and is subject to recoupment if the aforementioned employment conditions are not met. In the event of Mr. Brinker's continued employment, he will be entitled to a cash Make Whole Award of Five Hundred and Seventy-Four Thousand Dollars ($574,000), which was paid on June 4, 2021, but remains subject to recoupment if the aforementioned employment conditions are not met. As described in greater detail in the section above titled Grants under the Long-Term Incentive Plan for Plan Commencing in Fiscal 2021 on page 28, Mr. Brinker also received certain other Make Whole Awards pursuant to his employment agreement, which are subject to vesting, both time-based and performance-based.

The Company also entered into the Burke Transition Agreement during fiscal 2021 which sets forth the terms of Mr. Burke's severance and superseded the terms of the employment agreement the Company had previously entered into with Mr. Burke. Also, the Company entered into the Bowser Letter Agreement during fiscal 2021, which sets forth some of the terms of Mr. Bowser's severance. See Potential Post-Employment Payments below for additional information about benefits in the event of a termination of employment under Mr. Brinker's employment agreement, Mr. Burke's employment agreement, the Burke Transition Agreement, and the Bowser Letter Agreement.
Effective as of August 31, 2020, the Company entered into certain CEO Transition Retention Agreement Letters with Messrs. Lucareli, McBurney, and Bowser and Ms. Stein to provide a retention incentive for such NEOs through the transition of the CEO role from Mr. Burke to Mr. Brinker. The CEO Transition Retention Agreement Letters provided for a cash award incentive and a future grant of Retention Restricted Stock Units to each of the foregoing NEOs if they remain employed with the Company until August 4, 2022 (unless terminated earlier by the Company without Good Cause). The cash award incentive under the CEO Transition Retention Agreement Letters for each of the applicable NEOs is equal to fifty percent (50%) (40% for Mr. McBurney) of the NEO's base salary as of August 4, 2022 and the future grant of Retention Restricted Stock Units will be equal, based on grant date fair value, to fifty percent (50%) (45% for Mr. McBurney) of each applicable NEO's target value of his or her prevailing annual LTIP award as of August 4, 2022, based on the closing stock price of the Company on August 3, 2022. In the event of an NEO's termination of employment without Good Cause prior to August 4, 2022, the CEO Transition Retention Agreement Letters provide for a payout of the incentive amounts as severance at the time of the termination of employment. See Potential Post-Employment Payments below for additional information about benefits in the event of a termination of employment under the CEO Transition Retention Agreement Letters.
The Company has entered into change in control agreements with Mr. Brinker and Mr. Lucareli and certain other key employees. The purpose of these agreements is to ensure continuity and, in the case of a change in control, the continued dedication of key employees during any period of uncertainty due to a proposed or pending change in control of the Company. See Potential Post-Employment Payments below for additional information about benefits in the event of a change in control under the employment agreements and the change in control agreements.
Tax Implications for NEOs
The HCC Committee generally seeks to structure compensation amounts and arrangements so that they do not result in penalties for the NEOs under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the 'Code'). For example, Section 409A of the Code imposes substantial penalties and results in the loss of any tax deferral for nonqualified deferred compensation that does not meet the requirements of that section. The HCC Committee has generally structured the elements of the Company's compensation program so that they are either not characterized as nonqualified deferred compensation under Section 409A or meet the distribution, timing and other requirements of Section 409A. Without these steps, certain elements of compensation could result in substantial tax liability for the NEOs. Section 280G and related provisions of the Code impose substantial excise taxes on so-called 'excess parachute payments' payable to certain executives upon a change in control and results in the loss of the compensation deductions for such payments by the executive's employer. When the Company entered into the change in control agreement with Mr. Lucareli, which was entered into prior to 2009, the HCC Committee structured the change in control payment to include a gross up for excise taxes imposed under Section 280G in order to preserve the after-tax value of those payments to him. The portion of the Severance Plan applicable in a change in control, which is applicable to those joining the Company's senior management on or after the date of adoption of the Severance Plan, does not provide excise tax gross ups in the event of a change in control.
Tax Implications of IRC Section 162(m)
Section 162(m) of the Code generally disallows a tax deduction to public companies for compensation over $1,000,000 paid in any tax year to a company's CEO, CFO, and its three most highly compensated NEOs (other than the CEO and CFO) regardless of whether they were in service as of the end of any such tax year (each a 'covered employee'). Additionally, for any NEO whose compensation was or is subject to this limitation in any tax year beginning in or after 2017, that executive officer's compensation will remain subject to this annual deductibility limitation for any future tax year in which he or she receives compensation from Modine, regardless of whether he or she remains a NEO.
Accordingly, Modine is only able to deduct up to $1,000,000 per year of the compensation payable to any of our NEOs who is a 'covered employee' as determined under Section 162(m), unless certain transition relief pursuant to tax reform legislation signed into law on December 22, 2017, would apply to the applicable compensation.

(2)
Represents the aggregate grant date fair value computed in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718 for retention restricted stock unit awards and performance stock awards awarded in fiscal 2020 and 2019. For fiscal 2021, the Company granted the NEOs performance cash awards, the value of which will not appear in the Summary Compensation Table until those awards are paid. The assumptions used to determine the fair value of the awards are discussed in Note 5 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements contained in the Company's Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021.

Represents the aggregate grant date fair value computed in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718 for grants of stock options. The assumptions used to determine the value of the options are discussed in Note 5 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements contained in the Company's Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021. The actual value, if any, that an optionee will realize upon the exercise of an option will depend on the excess of the market value of the Company's common stock over the exercise price on the date the option is exercised, which cannot be determined until the option is exercised.
(4)
The amounts in the 'Non-Equity Incentive Plan Compensation' column include payments under the MIP for both fiscal 2020 and fiscal 2021, as applicable to each NEO.

Represents the change in pension value between the end of fiscal 2020 and the end of fiscal 2021 for the NEOs who participate in the Modine Manufacturing Company Pension Plan and the Executive Supplemental Retirement Plan. For purposes of calculating the change in benefit values from year to year, the discount rates used to determine the present value of the benefit were 3.2 percent as of March 31, 2021 and 3.4 percent as of March 31, 2020.
(6)

The options vest in four equal annual installments commencing on the first anniversary of the date of grant.
(2)
All of these shares are retention restricted stock unit awards ('Retention Restricted Awards'). All Retention Restricted Awards vest in four equal annual installments commencing one year after the date of grant, except with respect to Mr. Brinker's Make Whole Awards, which are discussed in the Grants under the Long-Term Incentive Plan for Plan Commencing in Fiscal 2021 on page 28. The market value of the awards was determined by multiplying the number of restricted stock units by $14.77, the closing price of the Company's common stock on the NYSE on March 31, 2021 (the last trading day of fiscal 2021). See Compensation Discussion and Analysis - Equity Incentives - Long-Term Incentive Compensation for a description of retention restricted stock unit awards.
The restricted stock units vest as follows:

The performance stock awards are reflected at the target level for the fiscal 2020 and 2019 awards. The actual payout of performance stock awards granted in fiscal 2019 was 59% percent of Target. See Compensation Discussion and Analysis - Equity Incentives - Long-Term Incentive Compensation for a description of performance stock awards. The market value of the performance stock awards was determined by multiplying the number of unvested shares by $14.77, the closing price of the Company's common stock on the NYSE on March 31, 2021 (the last trading day of fiscal 2021).

The Company used the following assumptions to determine the present value of accumulated benefit as set forth in the table above: discount rate of 3.23%; Mortality: use of Pri-2012 (70% Blue Collar/30% White Collar Blend) table projected generationally using scale MP-2020 converging to the Proxy SSA ultimate improvement factors over 10 years for age and 20 year for cohort (post - retirement decrement only) with 2% and 6% increases in Calendar years 2021 and 2022, respectively; service up to March 31, 2006 and pay up to December 31, 2007 (the plans froze service accumulation on March 31, 2006 and pay changes on December 31, 2007); employees elect to begin payments as soon as they are eligible to receive unreduced benefits; 80% of employees elect lump sums from the qualified plan and 20% elect annuities; and all payments from the SERP are in the form of a lump sum with lump sums valued using a 3-tier yield curve of 0.51% for years 0-5, 2.54% for years 5-20 and 3.45% for years 20+ and the specified 417(e) mortality table.

Pension Benefits
The Company's pension plan, The Modine Manufacturing Company Pension Plan (the 'Salaried Pension Plan'), is frozen. Participants in the Salaried Pension Plan no longer earn additional credited service (effective April 1, 2006) and changes in salary for a participant are not considered in determining pension benefits (effective December 31, 2007). The Salaried Pension Plan was formerly a part of competitive compensation for manufacturing companies such as Modine. The Salaried Pension Plan was frozen consistent with contemporary benefit practices.

The NEOs who were employed by the Company on or before December 31, 2003 participate on the same basis as other salaried employees in the non-contributory Salaried Pension Plan. Mr. Brinker, Ms. Stein and Mr. Casterton do not (and in the case of Mr. Burke, did not) participate in the Salaried Pension Plan because they joined the Company after December 31, 2003.
Retirement benefits are based upon an employee's earnings for the five highest consecutive calendar years of the last ten calendar years preceding retirement (provided that salary after the plan was frozen is not considered) and on years of service (provided that service after the plan was frozen is not considered). Applicable earnings include salary, bonus, and any amount deferred under the 401(k) Retirement Plan. A minimum of five years of service was required for the benefits to vest. The principal benefit under the Salaried Pension Plan is a lifetime monthly benefit for the joint lives of a participant and his or her spouse based on the employee's earnings and period of employment. The pension benefit is not subject to offset against Social Security benefits. Employees may retire with unreduced early retirement benefits at age 62 or may be eligible for deferred or other early retirement benefits depending on their age and years of service. In addition, an employee may elect to receive a lump-sum pension benefit if, upon retirement, the sum of the employee's age plus years of eligible service with the Company equals at least 85. Furthermore, if employed on and before March 31, 2001, an employee who reaches age 62 and who has accumulated thirty or more years of eligible service may request that the accrued benefit be paid immediately in a lump-sum amount, even if he or she elects not to retire at that time. Payment pursuant to the Salaried Pension Plan may be limited by regulation based upon the funded status of the plan.
Pension benefits under the Salaried Pension Plan are subject to possible limitations imposed by the Code. To the extent that an individual employee's retirement benefit exceeds these limits, the excess will be paid pursuant to the SERP from general operating funds of the Company.

Nonqualified Deferred Compensation

The Deferred Compensation Plan is a nonqualified plan. All of the NEOs currently employed by Modine are eligible to participate in the Deferred Compensation Plan. The Deferred Compensation Plan allows an employee to defer salary in an amount that exceeds the statutory limitations applicable to the 401(k) Retirement Plan. For the 2020 calendar year, an employee could generally contribute no more than $19,500 to the 401(k) Retirement Plan. The Deferred Compensation Plan allows a highly compensated employee to defer up to ten percent of base salary. Salary deferred pursuant to the Deferred Compensation Plan is an asset of the Company. The sums deferred do not earn a preferential rate of return. Company contributions are also made to the Deferred Compensation Plan in an amount equal to the Company match and profit sharing contributions that would otherwise have been contributed to the 401(k) Retirement Plan but for the statutory limits. All of the NEOs who participate in the Deferred Compensation Plan were fully vested in the Company contributions as of March 31, 2021. Payments out of the Deferred Compensation Plan are not made until termination of service or retirement.
The investment alternatives available to the NEOs under the Deferred Compensation Plan are selected by the Company and are generally the same as the alternatives available under the 401(k) Retirement Plan, but may be changed from time to time. The NEOs are permitted to change their investment elections at any time on a prospective basis. The table below shows the funds available under the plan and their annual rate of return for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021.

POTENTIAL POST-EMPLOYMENT PAYMENTS
The Company has certain obligations to its NEOs upon a termination of employment as a result of agreements with such officers or other plans, arrangements or policies that benefit the officers.
Mr. Brinker is the only NEO who has an agreement with the Company governing the terms of his employment. Pursuant to the employment agreement that was entered into with Mr. Brinker in 2020, Mr. Brinker agreed to serve as an executive officer of the Company and devote his full time to the performance of his duties.

Prior to entering into the Burke Transition Agreement, Mr. Burke was party to an employment agreement with the Company governing the terms of his employment, which was entered into in 2007. That employment agreement set forth the payments to which Mr. Burke would be entitled in the event of a termination of employment for various reason, including voluntary termination, retirement (including early retirement), death, disability, termination for Good Cause, and involuntary termination including termination without Good Cause or for Good Reason). Since Mr. Burke's employment terminated prior to the end of fiscal 2021, we have only described under this section the benefits he became entitled to upon his termination pursuant to the Burke Transition Agreement, which superseded Mr. Burke's former employment agreement. Similarly, we have only described under this section the benefits Mr. Bowser became entitled to upon his termination of employment on January 7, 2021 pursuant to the Bowser Letter Agreement, the Severance Plan and the CEO Transition Retention Agreement Letter dated August 31, 2020.

-43-
Table of Contents
The following sets forth the amount of payments to each NEO (other than Mr. Burke and Mr. Bowser) in the event of a termination of employment as a result of voluntary termination, retirement (including early retirement), death, disability, termination for Cause, and involuntary termination (including termination without Cause or for Good Reason).
Voluntary Termination. An NEO may terminate his/her employment with the Company at any time. In general, upon the individual's voluntary termination:


we would not pay severance;

the executive would forfeit all unvested stock options, Retention Restricted Awards and performance stock awards;

all benefits and perquisites would cease; and

the NEO, if a participant in the Salaried Pension Plan, would be entitled to a distribution of his/her vested benefits under that plan, the SERP (see the Pension Benefits Tablefor Fiscal 2021 on page 41) and the Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan (see the Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Tablefor Fiscal 2021 on page 42).
Retirement and Early Retirement. No NEOs were eligible for retirement on March 31, 2021. In general, upon the executive's full or early retirement:


we would not pay severance;

the HCC Committee may, in whole or in part, waive any or all remaining restrictions on unvested stock options and Retention Restricted Awards (for NEOs);

all benefits and perquisites would cease; and

the NEO, if a participant in the Salaried Pension Plan, the SERP or the Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan, would be entitled to a distribution of his/her vested benefits under those plans.
Death. In general, upon the death of an NEO:


the executive's estate would receive his/her base salary through the month in which the executive dies, plus any unused vacation pay;

all unvested stock options and Retention Restricted Awards would vest;

all benefits and perquisites would cease;

a prorated portion (based on the period worked during the performance period) of performance shares shall vest based on the Company's actual achievement of the performance goals at the end of the performance period; and

the NEO's estate, if he or she was a participant in the Salaried Pension Plan, the SERP or the Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan, would be entitled to a distribution of his/her vested benefits under those plans.
Disability. If a total and permanent disability causes the termination of employment of an NEO, then for such NEO:


we would not pay severance;

all unvested stock options and Retention Restricted Awards would vest;

a prorated portion (based on the period worked during the performance period) of performance shares shall vest based on the Company's actual achievement of the performance goals at the end of the performance period;

all benefits and perquisites would cease; and

the NEO, if a participant in the Salaried Pension Plan, the SERP or the Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan, would be entitled to a distribution of his/her vested benefits under those plans.
Termination for Cause. The Company may terminate Mr. Brinker's employment for Cause under the terms of his employment agreement and, thereby, terminate any obligation to Mr. Brinker under his employment agreement. A termination for 'Cause' generally means a termination for willful and continued failure to substantially perform his duties with the Company, conviction of a crime related to his duties, material breach of his employment agreement, or commission of an act of dishonesty or any willful act of misconduct which results in or could reasonably be expected to result in significant injury to the Company. The other NEOs without an employment agreement may be terminated by the Company for cause at any time, and are not entitled to receive any severance payments or benefits upon such termination. On the NEO's termination date, generally, all unvested stock options, Retention Restricted Awards and long-term incentive awards would be forfeited and all benefits and perquisites would cease. The NEO, if a participant in the Salaried Pension Plan, the SERP or the Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan, would be entitled to a distribution of his/her vested benefits under those plans.

Table of Contents
Termination without Cause, or for Good Reason. If the Company terminates Mr. Brinker's employment and the termination is not for Cause or if Mr. Brinker terminates employment with the Company for Good Reason ('Good Reason' means at least one of the following events has occurred without the consent of the affected executive: a material diminution in the executive's aggregate base salary and target incentive amount (other than pro rata reductions that also affect similarly situated employees); a material decrease in the executive's authority, duties or responsibilities, or a material change in the geographic location at which the executive must perform services), the Company is obligated to pay to Mr. Brinker an amount equal to two times his base salary over a two-year period following his termination. The Company's obligation is subject to Mr. Brinker's execution of a full release of any claims against Modine.

If the Company involuntarily terminates the employment of Mr. Lucareli, Ms. Stein, Mr. Casterton or Mr. McBurney without cause, these NEOs would receive benefits under the Severance Plan for members of the Executive Council. Under the Severance Plan, each of the NEOs would receive his or her annual base salary at the time of termination in installment payments over the course of one year following termination and would be eligible to elect Company-paid COBRA continuation coverage for one year following termination. The NEOs are required to release the Company from any and all liability in order to be eligible for benefits under the Severance Plan. Mr. Bowser was eligible for these benefits under the Severance Plan while employed with the Company.
Additionally, pursuant to those certain CEO Transition Retention Agreement Letters with Messrs. Lucareli, McBurney, and Bowser and Ms. Stein, each of the foregoing NEOs are entitled to a lump sum payment within sixty (60) days of his or her termination of employment by the Company without Good Cause (defined substantially the same as Cause in Mr. Brinker's employment agreement) prior to August 4, 2022 equal to (i) fifty percent (50%) of the NEO's base salary as of the date of termination and a cash payment equal to fifty percent (50%) of each applicable NEO's target value of his or her prevailing annual LTIP award in effect as of the date of his or her termination of employment. Entitlement to the foregoing benefits is conditioned upon an NEO's execution of a release of claims in favor of the Company upon his or her termination of employment. As described below, Mr. Bowser was entitled to these benefits upon his termination of employment.
POTENTIAL CHANGE IN CONTROL PAYMENTS AND BENEFITS
Generally, awards granted under the Incentive Plans accelerate vesting in the event of an involuntary termination of employment within one year following a Change in Control unless specified otherwise in the applicable award agreement. A Change in Control, as generally defined in the Incentive Plans, will be deemed to take place on the occurrence of any of the following events: (i) a merger or consolidation of the Company with one or more other corporations as a result of which the holders of the outstanding capital stock of the Company entitled to vote in elections of directors ('Voting Power') of the Company immediately prior to such merger or consolidation hold less than 50 percent of the Voting Power of the surviving or resulting corporation; (ii) a transfer of 30 percent of the Voting Power, or a substantial portion of the property, of the Company other than to an entity of which the Company owns at least 50 percent of the Voting Power; or (iii) during any period of 24 months, the persons who at the beginning of such 24-month period were directors of the Company cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority of the Board of Directors of the Company. Pursuant to the award agreements for performance stock awards granted in fiscal 2019, 2020, and 2021, upon an involuntary termination of employment within one year following a Change in Control, the NEO is entitled to accelerated vesting on a pro rata basis, where performance is assumed to be at the Target level and the proration is based on the period worked during the performance period.
Mr. Brinker entered into a change in control agreement with the Company on June 4, 2021, which contains separate Change in Control provisions. The definition of Change in Control generally has the same meaning as in the Incentive Plan described above. If at any time during the 24 months after a Change in Control occurs Mr. Brinker's employment were terminated without 'Cause', or if Mr. Brinker were to terminate the agreement for 'Good Reason' during the same time period, the Company is obligated to:


pay to Mr. Brinker an amount equal to two and one-half times his base salary;

pay to Mr. Brinker an amount equal to two and one-half times his Target bonus for the current fiscal year; and

if Mr. Brinker elects COBRA coverage with Modine, the Company shall pay his full COBRA premium for eighteen (18) months following his termination of employment.

The Company's obligation to provide the foregoing benefits is subject to Mr. Brinker's execution of a full release of any claims against Modine.

The Company has also entered into a Change in Control Agreement and Termination Agreement with Mr. Lucareli and certain other key employees. The definition of Change in Control generally has the same meaning as in the Incentive Plan described above and the definitions of Good Cause and Good Reason generally have the same meanings as 'Cause' and 'Good Reason,' respectively, in Mr. Brinker's employment agreement described above. For Mr. Lucareli, in the event of a Change in Control, if employment of the employee is terminated by the Company for any reason other than Good Cause, or terminated by the employee for Good Reason within 24 months after the Change in Control occurs, or for any reason during the 13th month after the Change in Control, the Company is obligated to provide the same benefits as described above for Mr. Brinker with the exception that the Company would pay to the employee an amount equal to two times the greater of (i) the sum of his then current base salary and Target bonus, or (ii) his five year average base salary and actual bonus, continue to provide coverage under applicable welfare plans (or the equivalent) for a period of two years, and pay a Supplemental Defined Contribution Benefit for a period of two years.

As described in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis section of the Company's fiscal 2011 proxy statement, the HCC Committee determined that no substantive changes would be made to any of the existing Employment or Change in Control and Termination Agreements that have been in place with the Company's employees prior to 2009. At the same time, the HCC Committee determined that any future agreements with employees which provide for benefits upon a change in control will not provide for excise tax gross ups and any benefits following a change in control under such future agreements would only be payable upon the employee's involuntary termination other than for Cause or Good Cause or the employee's voluntary termination for Good Reason.
Ms. Stein, Mr. Casterton and Mr. McBurney all joined the Executive Council at such a time that the Change in Control provisions of the Severance Plan govern (or governed, in the case of Mr. Bowser) the benefits each would be eligible to receive following a Change in Control. The definition of Change in Control under the Severance Plan generally has the same meaning as in the Incentive Plan described above and the definition of Good Reason generally has the same meaning as in Mr. Brinker's employment agreement described above. In the event of a Change in Control, the Severance Plan provides that if employment is terminated by the Company for any reason other than Cause, or terminated by the NEO for Good Reason within 12 months after the Change in Control occurs, the Company is obligated to provide the following benefits to the terminated NEO: (i) a payment equal to two (2) times her/his annual base salary at the time of termination, (ii) a payment equal to two (2) times the NEO's target award under the MIP for the fiscal year in progress at the time of her/his termination, and (iii) eighteen (18) months of Company-paid COBRA continuation coverage if the NEO elects such coverage. 'Cause' is defined under the Severance Plan to include the following: (a) engagement in an act of dishonesty constituting a felony that results or is intended to result directly or indirectly in gain or personal enrichment at the expense of Modine; (b) disclosure of confidential information of Modine that results in a demonstrable injury to Modine; or (c) engagement in a willful and continued failure to perform substantially one's duties on behalf of Modine or to comply with Modine's Code of Ethics and Business Conduct.

The below table sets forth the potential payments upon termination of employment or change in control for each of the NEOs (other than Mr. Burke and Mr. Bowser). For purposes of the calculations, it is assumed that Company matching contributions to the 401(k) Retirement Plan and Deferred Compensation Plan would be 4.5 percent of base salary for future calendar years.
Mr. Burke and Mr. Bowser are not included in the table below because they ceased employment with Modine effective August 28, 2020 and January 7, 2021, respectively.

Certain Termination Arrangements
The Burke Transition Agreement provided Mr. Burke with substantially the same benefits upon a termination by the Company without Good Cause as his prior employment agreement. Upon termination of Mr. Burke's employment, Mr. Burke became eligible to receive benefits in accordance with the Burke Transition Agreement as follows:

Severance equal to $5,067,524, which was calculated in accordance with Mr. Burke's employment agreement and is equal to the total 'Average Annual Earnings' of Mr. Burke over the remainder of his 'Period of Employment' (as both terms are defined in his employment agreement) and is payable over a 36-month period in equal installments in accordance with the Company's normal payroll practices commencing as of August 28, 2020; and

Benefits determined to satisfy the Company's obligations under Mr. Burke's employment agreement upon his termination without Good Cause with respect to his continued participation in the Company's welfare benefits and entitlement to any matching contributions under the Company's 401(k) and nonqualified deferred compensation plans for the remainder of his Period of Employment. These benefits were as follows:

o
A lump-sum, taxable payment equal to $46,983 (the 'COBRA Payment') that Mr. Burke could use to pay for COBRA premiums and an additional payment of $36,712 to help offset related taxes applicable to the COBRA Payment;

o
A payment equal to $37,800, payable over a 36-month period in equal installments in accordance with the Company's normal payroll practices commencing as of August 28, 2020, to reflect the 401(k) matching payments that would have been made by the Company to Mr. Burke's 401(k) account during that same period; and

o
An aggregate payment equal to $93,825, which shall be paid: (i) $10,425 on December 31, 2020; (ii) $31,275 on each of December 31, 2021 and December 30, 2022; and (iii) $20,850 in August 2023, all to reflect the matching payments that would have been made to Mr. Burke's deferred compensation account during that same period.
Upon termination of Mr. Bowser's employment, Mr. Bowser became eligible to receive the following benefits:

In accordance with the Severance Plan, Mr. Bowser became eligible to receive the following:

o
Severance equal to 52 weeks' Base Salary (i.e., $464,000), payable bi-weekly in accordance with standard Company practices, which became payable in a lump-sum in accordance with the Bowser Letter Agreement;

o
Company-paid COBRA continuation coverage for up to one year following termination; and

o
Company-paid outplacement benefits equal to $6,400.

In accordance with a CEO Transition Retention Agreement Letter dated August 31, 2020, Mr. Bowser became eligible to receive the following:

o
A lump-sum payment equal to fifty percent (50%) of his annual base salary, which was equal to $232,000; and

o
A lump-sum payment equal to fifty percent (50%) of his fiscal 2021 Target LTIP award, which was equal to $406,000.

In accordance with the Bowser Letter Agreement and his Restrictive Covenant Agreement, Mr. Bowser became eligible to receive the following:

o
Continued vesting of his unvested restricted stock units granted under the fiscal years 2018, 2019 and 2020 LTIPs and 50% of his unvested restricted stock units granted under the fiscal 2021 LTIP (which is estimated to be equal in value to $666,046, based on the closing stock price of $13.39 on January 7, 2021 (the date of Mr. Bowser's termination of employment)); and

o
Continued vesting of his unvested performance stock award granted under the fiscal 2019 LTIP (for the fiscal 2019 through fiscal 2021 performance period), which is estimated to be equal in value to $77,115, based on the closing stock price of $14.77 on March 31, 2021 (the last day of the applicable performance period and fiscal 2021); and

o
A prorated payment related to the fiscal 2021 MIP based on the period Mr. Bowser worked during fiscal 2021, which was equal to $243,600.
CEO PAY RATIO
As a result of the rules adopted by the SEC pursuant to the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act ('Dodd-Frank'), we are providing disclosure regarding the relationship of the annual total compensation of our employees and the annual total compensation of Mr. Brinker as the Company's Chief Executive Officer. The CEO Pay Ratio included in this information is a reasonable estimate calculated in accordance with Item 402(u) of Regulation S-K.
We last calculated our median employee with respect to fiscal 2018. Because Dodd-Frank requires the median employee to be calculated at least once every three years, we have recalculated our median employee for fiscal 2021. We used a measurement date of March 31, 2021, our fiscal year end, as of which date we employed, in total, approximately 10,900 individuals worldwide. In determining the employee population from which we identified the median employee, we excluded the 211 employees located in India and 111 employees located in Serbia.
For each of the employees in our employee population, total annual compensation was calculated by compiling total wages, which included base salary, plus any overtime, shift premiums and cash allowances, actually paid to each member of our workforce (including full-time, part-time, seasonal and temporary employees), other than our CEO. For purposes of this determination, Mr. Brinker's compensation was calculated by multiplying the base salary he received in fiscal 2021 (during which he served as CEO for four months) by three, and adding all other amounts reflected in the Summary Compensation Table. When identifying the median employee, consistent with Item 402(u) of Regulation S-K, we included adjustments for annualizing the pay for any full-time and part-time employees who were employed by us for only part of the year.
The identified median employee is a Processor B based in our Lawrenceburg, Tennessee facility. Based on the foregoing, the median of the annual total compensation of the Company's employees (other than Mr. Brinker) was approximately $28,707 for fiscal 2021. Mr. Brinker's total annual compensation, calculated as noted above, was $3,448,294. This yields a CEO Pay Ratio of 1:120.

ITEM 2 - ADVISORY VOTE TO APPROVE THE COMPANY'S NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICER COMPENSATION

As required pursuant to Section 14A of the Exchange Act, the Company annually seeks the advisory vote of its shareholders on its executive compensation program and asks that you support the compensation of the Company's NEOs as disclosed in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis section and accompanying tables contained in this proxy statement.
The HCC Committee and the Company are committed to paying for performance and ensuring that the executive compensation plans of the Company drive value. This commitment is reflected in the Company's executive compensation program, which is designed to balance short- and long-term considerations while rewarding management in a way that reflects the Company's performance over time.
This proposal, commonly known as a 'Say on Pay' proposal, gives you the opportunity to indicate your support or lack of support for the Company's fiscal 2021 pay practices and programs for the NEOs through the following resolution:
RESOLVED, that the compensation paid to the Company's NEOs, as disclosed pursuant to Item 402 of Regulation S-K, including the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, compensation tables and narrative discussion is hereby APPROVED.
This vote is not for or against a particular item of compensation but rather is with regard to the executive compensation program, as a whole, for the NEOs. This shareholder vote is advisory and is, therefore, not binding on the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors will, however, take the outcome of this vote into account when determining NEO compensation for future years.
The Board of Directors recommends a vote 'FOR' approval of the compensation of the Company's NEOs.
Vote Required for Approval
Approval of the advisory vote supporting the Company's executive compensation policies and procedures for its NEOs requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast thereon, provided a quorum is present. Because abstentions and broker non-votes are not considered votes cast, they will have no effect on the vote.
ITEM 3 - RATIFICATION OF THE APPOINTMENT OF THE INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
The Audit Committee of the Board has appointed PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP ('PwC') as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2022 to audit the consolidated financial statements of the Company. Before the Audit Committee selected PwC, it carefully considered the qualifications of the firm, including their performance in prior years and their reputation for integrity and for competence in the fields of accounting and auditing. Services provided to the Company and its subsidiaries by PwC in fiscal 2021 and fiscal 2020 are described under Independent Auditor's Fees for Fiscal 2021 and 2020 below.
If the shareholders do not ratify the appointment of PwC, the selection of our independent registered public accounting firm will be reconsidered by the Audit Committee. If, prior to the annual meeting, PwC declines to act or its engagement is otherwise discontinued by the Audit Committee, the Audit Committee will appoint another independent registered public accounting firm whose engagement for any period subsequent to the meeting will be subject to ratification by the shareholders at the 2021 Annual Meeting of Shareholders.
Representatives of PwC are expected to be present at the 2021 Annual Meeting of Shareholders. They will have the opportunity to make a statement if they desire to do so and are expected to be available to respond to appropriate questions.

The sale of the liquid-cooled automotive business is subject to the receipt of governmental and third-party approvals and satisfaction of other closing conditions.
(c)
Tax Fees: Fees for professional services performed by PwC with respect to tax compliance, tax advice, and tax planning. This may include preparation of returns for the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries, refund claims, payment planning and tax audit assistance.
Pre-Approval Policy
The Audit Committee pre-approves all audit services and permitted non-audit services, including all fees and terms, to be performed for the Company by its independent registered public accounting firm. Alternatively, the Audit Committee may form and delegate authority to subcommittees consisting of one or more members when appropriate, including the authority to grant pre-approvals of audit and permitted non-audit services, provided that decisions of such subcommittee to grant pre-approvals shall be presented to the full Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting. Non-audit services are reviewed and pre-approved by project at the beginning of each fiscal year. Descriptions of each project are provided to the Audit Committee. Any additional non-audit services contemplated by the Company after the beginning of the fiscal year are submitted to the Audit Committee for pre-approval prior to engaging the independent registered public accounting firm to perform any services. The Audit Committee is routinely informed as to the non-audit services actually provided by the independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to the pre-approved projects. All of the fees paid to the independent registered public accounting firm in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021 and fiscal year ended March 31, 2020 were approved in advance by the Audit Committee.
The Board of Directors recommends a vote 'FOR' ratification of the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm.
Vote Required for Approval
Approval of this proposal requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast on the proposal, provided a quorum is present. Because abstentions and broker non-votes are not considered votes cast, they will not have an effect on the vote.
REPORT OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE
The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors consists of five members, each of whom has been determined by the Board to be sufficiently experienced, financially literate and independent in accordance with the applicable NYSE listing standards. Mr. Cooley, the Chair of the Audit Committee, and Mr. Ashleman qualify as audit committee financial experts within the meaning of the SEC rules.

Table of Contents
The Audit Committee operates under a written charter adopted by the Board of Directors. Under its charter, the Audit Committee's purpose is to assist the Board of Directors in overseeing:

The integrity of the Company's financial statements;

The internal control and disclosure control systems of the Company;

The independent registered public accounting firm's qualifications and independence;

The performance of the Company's internal audit function and independent registered public accounting firm; and

The Company's compliance with legal and regulatory requirements.
The Audit Committee is responsible for appointing and overseeing the work of the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for the purpose of preparing and issuing an audit report and performing related work, and for discussing with the independent registered public accounting firm appropriate staffing and compensation. It is also the responsibility of the Audit Committee to ensure the rotation of the lead audit partner having primary responsibility for the audit and the audit partner responsible for reviewing the audit as required by law, or more frequently if the Audit Committee may deem necessary.
In determining whether to reappoint PwC as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm to audit the consolidated financial statements of the Company for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2022, the Audit Committee considered the qualifications of the firm, including their performance in prior years and their reputation for integrity and for competence in the fields of accounting and auditing. Members of the Audit Committee prepared written evaluations of PwC, and the evaluations were considered as part of the reappointment process, along with additional input from members of executive management and the head of the Company's Internal Audit department regarding their views of and experiences with PwC in its capacity as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm.
The Audit Committee discussed and approved PwC's compensation for its work as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm based on a number of factors. These factors included the review of a fee proposal presented by PwC describing the background of the relationship, the proposed scope of audit, and circumstances distinguishing PwC's work in fiscal 2021 from its proposed fiscal 2022 role. The Audit Committee also received input from management regarding its work experience with the PwC audit team and the reasonableness and market competitiveness of PwC's fee proposal.
In addition, the Audit Committee is charged under its charter with a wide range of responsibilities and authority, including, among others:

Retaining, to the extent it deems necessary or appropriate, and with appropriate funding provided by the Company, independent legal, accounting or other advisors, or other services or tools as it deems necessary or appropriate in carrying out its duties;

Oversight of management's implementation of systems of internal controls, including review of policies relating to legal and regulatory compliance, ethics and conflicts of interest;

Review of the activities and recommendations of the Company's internal auditing program;

Monitoring the preparation of quarterly and annual financial reports by the Company's management, including discussions with management and the Company's independent registered public accounting firm about draft annual financial statements and key accounting and reporting matters;

Monitoring and reviewing the Company's earnings releases with management and the Company's independent registered public accounting firm;

Determining whether the independent registered public accounting firm is independent (based in part on the annual letter provided to the Company pursuant to applicable requirements of the PCAOB);

Reviewing the independent registered public accounting firm's quality control program and any material control issues;

Annually reviewing management's programs to monitor compliance with the Company's Code of Ethics;

Annually reviewing with management the assumptions and disclosures related to the defined benefit and post-employment benefit plans; and

Reviewing with management at least semi-annually the status, policies and procedures relating to Company common stock held in any such plan.
The Audit Committee met eight times during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021. The Audit Committee has an appropriate number of meetings to ensure that it devotes appropriate attention to all of its responsibilities. The Audit Committee's meetings include, whenever appropriate, executive sessions with the Company's independent registered public accounting firm and with the Company's internal auditors and compliance personnel, in each case without any other member of the Company's management being present.

Table of Contents
In overseeing the preparation of the Company's financial statements, the Audit Committee met with both management and the Company's independent registered public accounting firm to review and discuss all financial statements, including the Company's audited financial statements, prior to their issuance, and to discuss significant accounting issues. Management advised the Audit Committee that all financial statements were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The Audit Committee has discussed with PwC the matters required to be discussed by the applicable requirements of the PCAOB and the SEC.
With respect to the Company's independent registered public accounting firm, the Audit Committee, among other things, discussed with PwC matters relating to its independence, after receiving the written disclosures and the letter from PwC required by the applicable requirements of the PCAOB.
On the basis of these reviews and discussions, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board of Directors that the Company's audited financial statements be included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021, for filing with the SEC.
In performing all of the functions described above, the Audit Committee acts only in an oversight capacity. The Audit Committee completes its review of the matters described above prior to the public announcements of financial results. In its oversight role, the Audit Committee relies on the work and assurances of the Company's management, which has the primary responsibility for the Company's financial statements and its report on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting, and of the Company's independent registered public accounting firm, who, in their report, express an opinion on the Company's annual financial statements and on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

DELINQUENT SECTION 16(a) REPORTS
Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires the Company's executive officers and directors, and certain persons who beneficially own more than 10 percent of a registered class of the Company's equity securities to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership of equity securities of Modine and derivative securities of Modine with the SEC. Those 'reporting persons' are required by SEC regulation to furnish the Company with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file.
Based upon a review of those filings and other information furnished by the reporting persons, we believe that all of the Company's reporting persons complied during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021 with the reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act.
ADDITIONAL MATTERS
The Board of Directors is not aware of any other matters that will be presented for action at the 2021 Annual Meeting of Shareholders. Should any additional matters properly come before the meeting, the persons named in the proxy will vote on those matters in accordance with their best judgment.

Who may vote?
You may vote your shares of common stock if our records show that you owned the shares at the close of business on May 28, 2021, the record date. A total of 51,627,304 shares of common stock were outstanding as of the record date and entitled to vote at the annual meeting. You are entitled to one vote for each share of common stock you own. The holders of common stock do not have cumulative voting rights. The enclosed proxy card shows the number of shares you may vote.
How do I vote?
You may vote your shares electronically at the annual meeting, by telephone or by a properly appointed proxy.
Registered Holders
Registered holders may vote prior to the annual meeting (i) by completing and mailing the enclosed proxy card, or (ii) electronically via the Internet, or (iii) by calling Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. Specific instructions for each voting option are set forth on the enclosed proxy card. You may also vote electronically at the annual meeting.
The Internet and telephone voting procedures on the enclosed proxy card to vote your shares prior to the annual meeting are for your convenience and reduce costs for Modine. The procedures are designed to authenticate your identity, allow you to give voting instructions and confirm that those instructions have been recorded properly.
Street Name Holders
If your shares are registered in the name of a bank or brokerage firm, you may be eligible to vote your shares electronically via the Internet or by telephone. If your bank or brokerage firm is participating in the Broadridge Investor Communication Services' program, your voting form will provide you with instructions.
401(k) Retirement Plan Participants
If you are a participant in one of Modine's 401(k) Retirement Plans, you will receive a proxy on which you may indicate your voting instructions for the shares held in your plan account. The trustee for the plan, Equiniti Trust Company, will vote your shares as you direct. If a proxy is not returned for shares held in a plan, the trustee generally will vote those shares in the same proportion that all shares in the plan for which voting instructions have been received are voted, although it may do otherwise in its discretion.
May I vote during the annual meeting?
Although we encourage you to complete and return the proxy card or vote via the Internet or by telephone prior to the annual meeting to ensure that your vote is counted, you may attend the annual meeting and vote your shares electronically at the annual meeting.

Table of Contents
What does the Board of Directors recommend?
The Board of Directors' recommendation is included with the description of each item in this proxy statement. In summary, the Board recommends a vote:
'FOR' election of each of the Company-nominated directors for terms expiring in 2024 (see Item 1); and
'FOR' approval of the Company's NEO compensation (see Item 2); and
'FOR' ratification of the Company's independent registered public accounting firm (see Item 3).
Unless you give other instructions, the persons named as proxies will vote 'FOR' Items 1, 2, and 3.
What if other matters come up at the annual meeting?
To our knowledge, the matters described in this proxy statement are the only matters that will be subject to a vote at the annual meeting. If other matters are properly presented, the persons appointed as proxies will vote your shares on those other matters in accordance with their best judgment.
May I change my vote after I appoint a proxy?
Yes, you may change your vote by revoking your proxy. You may revoke your proxy by:
submitting a new proxy;
giving written notice before the annual meeting to the Company's Secretary stating that you are revoking your previous proxy;
revoking your proxy in the same manner you initially submitted it - by mail, Internet, or the telephone; or
virtually attending the annual meeting and voting your shares electronically at the annual meeting.
If you decide to vote your shares electronically at the annual meeting, we prefer that you first revoke your prior proxy in the same way you initially submitted it - that is, by mail, Internet or the telephone. The presence at the annual meeting of a shareholder who has made an effective proxy appointment does not, by itself, constitute a revocation of a proxy appointment.
How are votes counted?
A majority of the shares entitled to vote, represented in person or by proxy, will constitute a quorum at the annual meeting. Abstentions and broker non-votes are counted as present for purposes of determining a quorum.
Voting on the Election of Directors (Item 1)
Directors in an uncontested election are elected by a majority of the votes cast by holders of shares of the Company's common stock entitled to vote in the election at a shareholder meeting at which a quorum is present. Because abstentions and broker non-votes are not considered votes cast, they will not have an effect on the vote.
Advisory Vote on NEO Compensation (Item 2)
Approval of the advisory resolution on the Company's NEO compensation policies and procedures for its NEOs requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast, provided a quorum is present. Because abstentions and broker non-votes are not considered votes cast, they will not have an effect on the vote.
Voting on the Ratification of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm (Item 3)
Approval of this proposal requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast, provided a quorum is present. Because abstentions and broker non-votes are not considered votes cast, they will not have an effect on the vote.
Who will count the votes?
Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc., an independent tabulator, will count the votes under the supervision of the Inspectors of Election appointed by the Board of Directors.
Shareholder Proposals for 2022 Annual Meeting
Shareholder proposals for the 2022 Annual Meeting of Shareholders of the Company must be received no later than February 22, 2022 at the Company's principal executive office, Modine Manufacturing Company, 1500 DeKoven Avenue, Racine, Wisconsin 53403-2552, directed to the attention of the Company's Secretary, in order to be considered for inclusion in next year's annual meeting proxy material under the proxy rules of the SEC. Written notice of shareholder proposals and director nominations for the 2022 Annual Meeting of Shareholders of the Company that are not intended to be considered for inclusion in next year's annual meeting proxy material (shareholder proposals submitted outside the processes of Rule 14a-8) must be received no earlier than March 24, 2022 and no later than April 23, 2022 at such offices, directed to the attention of the Company's Secretary, and must be submitted in accordance with the requirements of the Bylaws of the Company.
Who pays for this proxy solicitation?
Modine pays for the proxy solicitation. Directors, officers and employees of Modine, who will receive no additional compensation for their services, may solicit proxies in person or by mail, telephone, facsimile transmission or other means. Brokers, banks, nominees, fiduciaries and other custodians will be requested to solicit beneficial owners of shares and will be reimbursed for their expenses.

How may I help reduce mailing costs?
Eligible shareholders who have more than one account in their name or the same address as other shareholders may authorize us to discontinue mailings of multiple annual reports and proxy statements. Most shareholders can also view future annual reports and proxy statements on the Internet rather than receiving paper copies in the mail. See the next two questions and answers and your proxy card for more information.
Are proxy materials and the annual report available electronically?
Yes, they are available at www.proxyvote.com and on our website, www.modine.com. In addition, shareholders may elect to view future proxy statements and annual reports on the Internet instead of receiving paper copies in the mail. If you are a shareholder of record, you may choose this option and save us the cost of producing and mailing these documents by following the instructions provided on the proxy card to vote on the Internet. On the referenced website, you will be given instructions to choose to receive future proxy statements and annual reports electronically. If you hold your stock in street name, please refer to the information provided by the party in whose name the shares are held for instructions on how to elect to view future proxy statements and annual reports on the Internet.
What happens if multiple shareholders share the same address?
We have adopted a procedure called 'householding,' so we are sending only one proxy statement to shareholders with the same last name at a single address, unless we have received instructions to do otherwise. Householding reduces our printing and postage costs. If a shareholder of record wishes to receive a separate copy of a proxy statement or annual report in the future, he or she may tell us so by providing written notice to the Company's Secretary, Modine Manufacturing Company, 1500 DeKoven Avenue, Racine, WI 53403-2552, or oral notice by calling 262-636-1517. Upon written or oral request, the Company will promptly send a copy of either document.
Shareholders of record sharing the same address and receiving multiple copies of the annual report and proxy statement may request householding by contacting us in the same manner. If you own your shares in street name, you may request householding by contacting the entity in whose name the shares are held.
The foregoing notice and Proxy Statement are sent by order of the Board of Directors.

Sylvia A. Stein,
Vice President, General Counsel, Corporate Secretary
and Chief Compliance Officer

June 22, 2021
The Company will provide to any shareholder, without charge, upon written request of such shareholder, a copy of the Company's Form 10-K (without exhibits).

A copy of the Company's Form 10-K is available on our website, www.modine.com.
