CATERPILLAR INC 4

Caterpillar Inc. CEO Joseph E. Creed received 18 phantom stock units tied to Caterpillar common stock under a deferred compensation plan.

On July 24, 2026, Caterpillar Inc. CEO Joseph E. Creed received an award of 18 phantom stock units under the company’s non-qualified deferred compensation plan, economically equivalent to Caterpillar common stock but settled 100% in cash upon retirement or separation. The award consists of 9 units credited at a price of $888.73 per share and 9 units contributed with no cash consideration, including adjustments related to dividends within an unfunded unitized company stock fund. Following this grant, Creed beneficially holds 11,483 phantom stock units, whose economic value will fluctuate with the value of Caterpillar stock and the cash/stock mix of the underlying unitized fund, but currently represents a material deferred compensation interest rather than an open-market purchase or sale of common shares.
