ITEM 5.02. DEPARTURE OF DIRECTORS OR CERTAIN OFFICERS; ELECTION OF DIRECTORS; APPOINTMENT OF CERTAIN OFFICERS; COMPENSATORY ARRANGEMENTS OF CERTAIN OFFICERS.

On May 21, 2026, at the 2026 Annual General Meeting of Shareholders (the “Annual Meeting”) of Aebi Schmidt Holding AG (the “Company” or “Aebi Schmidt”), the shareholders of the Company approved the Aebi Schmidt Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”).

The Plan authorizes the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) to provide for compensation in the form of restricted share units, performance share units and restricted shares. The purpose of the Plan is to attract, retain and motivate high quality personnel (including members of the Company’s executive board, other employees of the Company, and non-executive Board members) by providing them with equity ownership opportunities and/or performance-based incentives to increase their commitments for and in the best interest of the Company. Subject to adjustment as described in the Plan (and its share counting rules), a total of 3,500,000 shares of common stock, par value $1.00 per share, of the Company are available for awards granted under the Plan, as further described in the Plan. The Plan includes minimum one-year vesting requirements as further described in the Plan.

The Plan permits the Board to make certain performance-based awards to eligible participants under the Plan, which awards may be earned based on the achievement of predetermined performance conditions over the relevant performance period. The performance conditions for such awards will be any applicable business-relevant performance metrics chosen or provided for such awards by the Board.

The Plan also provides that each non-executive Board member will be granted no more than $500,000 in Plan awards and cash fees for such service in any one calendar year as described in the Plan. In general, the Board will administer the Plan and will be able to amend the Plan, subject to certain exceptions, all as described in the Plan. Awards are permitted to be granted under the Plan generally until terminated or amended by the Board.

This description of the Plan is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Plan, which is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
