2015 NOTICE OF MEETING AND PROXY STATEMENT

Election of Directors

(Resolutions 1 to 11)

All of our current directors, other than John A. Krol, who is retiring as of the Annual Meeting, are nominated for one-year terms expiring in 2016. The Board extends its sincere appreciation to Mr. Krol for his years of service and thoughtful Board leadership. Mr. Krol, in his role as Chairman of the Board and Chairman of the Nominating and Governance Committee, has given generously of his time and has consistently provided the Board with independent insight and advice. His expertise in corporate governance, as well as his significant operational and strategic expertise, has been invaluable to the Board and to Delphi.

The Board has nominated Mr. Clark and Mr. Manganello for election as directors. Mr. Clark joined the Board on March 1, 2015, in connection with his appointment to the role of Delphi’s Chief Executive Officer and President. Additionally, Mr. Manganello also joined the Board on March 1, 2015. In recruiting Mr. Manganello, the Nominating and Governance Committee retained a search firm to help identify director prospects, perform candidate outreach, assist in reference and background checks, and provide other related services. The recruiting process typically involves either the search firm or a member of the Nominating and Governance Committee contacting a prospect to gauge his or her interest and availability. A candidate will then meet with several members of the Board. At the same time, the Nominating and Governance Committee and the search firm will contact references for the prospect. A background check is completed before a final recommendation is made to the Board to appoint a candidate to the Board.

The Board has been informed that each nominee is willing to serve as a director. If a director does not receive a majority of the vote for his election, then that director will not be elected to the Board, and the Board may fill the vacancy with a different person, or the Board may reduce the number of directors to eliminate the vacancy. Each member of our Board, other than Mr. Clark and Mr. Manganello, was a member of Delphi Automotive LLP’s Board of Managers immediately prior to the Company’s initial public offering in 2011, and information below as to each member’s tenure on our Board also reflects their tenure on Delphi Automotive LLP’s Board.

The Board believes that the combination of the various qualifications, skills and experiences of the director nominees would contribute to an effective and well-functioning Board. The Board and the Nominating and Governance Committee believe that, individually and as a whole, the directors possess the necessary qualifications to provide effective oversight of the business and quality advice and counsel to the Company’s management.

Included in each director nominee’s biography below is an assessment of his specific qualifications, attributes, skills and experience.



Kevin P. Clark He was appointed the Chief Executive Officer and President of Delphi effective March 1, 2015 and joined the Delphi Board of Directors at that time. Mr. Clark was Chief Financial Officer and Executive Vice President of Delphi from July 2010 through October 2014, when he was appointed Chief Operating Officer. Prior to joining Delphi, Mr. Clark was a founding partner of Liberty Lane Partners, LLC, a private-equity investment firm focused on building and improving middle-market companies. Prior to that, Mr. Clark served as the Chief Financial Officer of Fisher Scientific International Inc., a manufacturer, distributor and service provider to the global healthcare market, from the company’s initial public offering in 2001 through the completion of its merger with Thermo Electron Corporation in 2006. Prior to becoming Chief Financial Officer, Mr. Clark served as Fisher-Scientific’s Corporate Controller and Treasurer.

2015 NOTICE OF MEETING AND PROXY STATEMENT

BOARD PRACTICES

In order to help our shareholders better understand our Board practices, we are including the following description of current practices. The Nominating and Governance Committee periodically reviews these practices.

Size of the Board

As of the date of this mailing, the Board consists of 12 directors, following the retirement of Mr. O’Neal on March 1, 2015 and Messrs. Clark and Manganello joining the Board on that date. Following the Annual General Meeting and Mr. Krol’s retirement, and assuming all nominated directors are elected, the Board will consist of 11 directors. Our Memorandum and Articles of Association provides that our Board must consist of a minimum of two directors. The exact number of directors on our Board may be changed from time to time as determined by our full Board.

Leadership Structure

The Board believes it is important to retain flexibility to allocate the responsibilities of the offices of the Chairman and CEO in a manner that is in the best interests of the Company. Currently, the Board believes it is in the best interests of the Company to separate the positions of CEO and Chairman and to have an independent Non-Executive Chairman. Rajiv L. Gupta was elected to this role on March 1, 2015, succeeding John A. Krol, who served in this role since 2009. The Board believes this leadership structure affords the Company an effective combination of internal and external experience, continuity and independence, which will serve the Board and the Company well.

Director Independence

The Board believes that a substantial majority of its members should be independent, non-employee directors. During 2014, Mr. O’Neal, who served as our Chief Executive Officer and President, was the only non-independent director. As of the date of this mailing, only Kevin P. Clark, our current Chief Executive Officer and President, is an employee of Delphi. The current non-employee directors of the Company are Gary L. Cowger, Nicholas M. Donofrio, Mark P. Frissora, Rajiv L. Gupta, John A. Krol, J. Randall MacDonald, Sean O. Mahoney, Timothy M. Manganello, Thomas W. Sidlik, Bernd Wiedemann and Lawrence A. Zimmerman. The Board has determined that all of its non-employee directors, other than Mr. Clark, meet the requirements for independence under the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) listing standards and the rules required for Audit Committee members by the SEC.

Furthermore, the Board limits membership on the Audit, Compensation and Human Resources, and Nominating and Governance Committees to independent directors.

Audit Committee Financial Expert

The Board has determined that all of the members of the Audit Committee are financially literate, and that both Mr. Zimmerman and Mr. Mahoney meet the qualifications of audit committee financial experts, as defined under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

Evaluation of Board Performance

The Nominating and Governance Committee coordinates an annual evaluation process by which the directors evaluate the Board’s and its Committees’ performance and procedures. This self-evaluation leads to a full Board discussion of the results. Each Committee of the Board also conducts an annual evaluation of its performance and procedures.

Director Retirement

Our Corporate Governance Guidelines provide that the retirement age for directors is 75, unless waived by the Board. No director who is or would be over 75 at the expiration of his current term may be nominated to a new term, unless the Board waives the retirement age for a specific director. Once granted, such waiver must be renewed annually.

Our Corporate Governance Guidelines also provide that non-employee directors who significantly change their primary employment during their tenure as Board members must offer to tender their resignation to the Nominating and Governance Committee. The Nominating and Governance Committee will evaluate the continued appropriateness of Board membership under the new circumstances and make a recommendation to the Board as to any action to be taken with respect to such offer.

Nomination of Directors

The Nominating and Governance Committee recommends individuals for membership on the Board. The Nominating and Governance Committee considers not only a candidate’s qualities, performance and professional responsibilities, but also the composition of the Board and the challenges and needs of the Board at that time. The Board as a whole is constituted to be strong in its collective knowledge and diversity of accounting and finance, management and leadership, vision and strategy, business operations, business judgment, crisis

DELPHI AUTOMOTIVE PLC 11

2015 NOTICE OF MEETING AND PROXY STATEMENT

Board Practices (continued)

management, risk assessment, industry knowledge, corporate governance and global markets.

The culture of the Board enables the Board to operate quickly and effectively in making key decisions. Board meetings are conducted in an environment of trust, confidentiality, open dialogue, mutual respect and constructive commentary.

The Nominating and Governance Committee views diversity in its broadest sense, which includes education, ethnicity, experience, gender and leadership qualities. The Nominating and Governance Committee will use the same selection process and criteria for evaluating all nominees, regardless of who submits the nominee for consideration.

Directors are encouraged to submit to the Chairman of the Nominating and Governance Committee the name of any candidate whom they believe to be qualified to serve on the Board, together with background information on the candidate. In accordance with procedures set forth in our Memorandum and Articles of Association, shareholders holding at least one-tenth of the ordinary shares outstanding and who have the right to vote at general meetings of the Company may propose, and the Nominating and Governance Committee will consider, nominees for election to the Board at the next annual meeting by giving timely written notice to the Corporate Secretary, which must be received at our principal executive offices no later than the close of business on March 3, 2016, and no earlier than November 24, 2015. The notice periods may change in accordance with the procedures set out in our Memorandum and Articles of Association. Any such notice must include the name of the nominee, a biographical sketch and resume, contact information and such other background materials as the Nominating and Governance Committee may request.

Executive Sessions

Independent directors meet together as a group during each Board meeting, without the CEO or any other employees in attendance. The Chairman presides over each executive session of the Board. Each Committee also convenes an executive session at which Committee members meet without the CEO or any other employees in attendance.

Board’s Role in Risk Oversight

The Board takes an active role in risk oversight related to the Company both as a full Board and through its Committees, each of which has primary risk oversight responsibility

with respect to all matters within the scope of its duties as contemplated by its charter. While the Company’s management is responsible for day-to-day management of the various risks facing the Company, the Board is responsible for monitoring management’s actions and decisions. The Board, as apprised by the Audit Committee, determines that appropriate risk management and mitigation procedures are in place and that senior management takes the appropriate steps to manage all major risks.

Stock Ownership Guidelines

The Board believes that each director should hold a meaningful equity position in the Company and has established equity holding requirements for our non-employee directors. The holding requirement for each non-employee director is five times the value of his designated annual cash retainer (at least $500,000, based upon the current cash retainer). Each new director will have up to five full years from his or her date of appointment to fulfill this holding requirement. All current non-employee directors hold in excess of this minimum shareholding requirement.

Governance Principles

The Board adopted a formal statement of Corporate Governance Guidelines, which sets forth the corporate governance practices for Delphi. The Corporate Governance Guidelines are available on our website at www.delphi.com by clicking on the tab “Investors” and then the caption “Governance Documents” under the heading “Corporate Governance.”

Code of Ethical Business Conduct

Delphi adopted a Code of Ethical Business Conduct, which applies to all employees and directors, including the principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer and controller, or persons performing similar functions. The Code of Ethical Business Conduct is available on Delphi’s website at www.delphi.com by clicking on the tab “Responsibility” and then the heading “Code of Ethics.” Copies of our Code of Ethical Business Conduct are also available to any shareholder who submits a request to the Corporate Secretary at Delphi Automotive PLC, c/o Delphi Automotive Systems, LLC, 5725 Delphi Drive, Troy, Michigan 48098. We intend to satisfy any disclosure requirement under Item 5.05 of Form 8-K by posting on our website any amendments to, or waivers from, a provision of our Code of Ethical Business Conduct that applies to our directors or officers.

Our directors (other than Mr. O’Neal, prior to his retirement from the Company, and Mr. Clark, upon his appointment to the Board, who were compensated as officers of the Company and do not receive additional compensation for services as members of the Board) received the following annual compensation, 40% of which is paid in cash and 60% of which is delivered in the form of time-based restricted stock units (“RSUs”). Each director may elect, on an annual basis, to receive 50% or 100% of his cash retainer in RSUs. The Chairman of the Board receives $500,000 annually, and all other directors receive $250,000 annually. In 2014, chairmen of our board committees received the following additional annual compensation:

2015 NOTICE OF MEETING AND PROXY STATEMENT

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Overview

The Compensation and Human Resources Committee (the “Compensation Committee”), composed entirely of independent directors, is responsible to the Board for executive compensation at Delphi. The Compensation Committee, in consultation with management and its independent outside advisor, oversees the Company’s compensation philosophy and reviews and approves executive compensation for executive officers (including cash compensation, equity incentives and benefits).

In this section, we describe: (1) the material components of our executive compensation programs for the “named executive officers” or “NEOs”; (2) the compensation decisions the Compensation Committee has made under those programs; and (3) the factors considered in making those decisions, including 2014 Company performance. For fiscal year 2014, the NEOs were:

•

Rodney O’Neal, our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and President;

•

Kevin P. Clark, our Chief Operating Officer (“COO”) (effective October 1, 2014), who also served as our Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”) and Executive Vice President (until October 1, 2014);

•

Mark J. Murphy, our Chief Financial Officer and Executive Vice President (effective October 1, 2014);

•

James A. Spencer, our Executive Vice President, Operations and President, Delphi Latin America;

•

Jeffrey J. Owens, our Chief Technology Officer and Executive Vice President; and

•

Majdi B. Abulaban, our Senior Vice President, Electrical/Electronic Architecture and President, Delphi Asia Pacific.

Our executive compensation program is designed to attract, retain and, most importantly, motivate the successful execution of our business strategies, which seeks to balance achievement of targeted near-term results with building long-term shareholder value through sustained execution. Our focus on pay-for-performance and corporate governance ensures alignment with the interests of our shareholders, as highlighted below:

ALIGNMENT WITH STAKEHOLDERS


Pay-for-Performance		Status
We target executive compensation at peer group *median* and deliver compensation above or below this level when warranted by performance.		ü
88% of total 2014 compensation for the CEO is *performance-based* and 71% is granted in *equity, while 79% of total 2014 compensation for the other NEOs is performance-based* and 57% is granted in *equity*.		ü
We use a *rigorous goal-setting process* for incentives, with multiple levels of review.		ü
100% of the 2014 *annual incentives* of NEOs are *tied solely* to Delphi’s *financial performance*.		ü
*75% of the NEOs’ long-term incentive* compensation is contingent on performance and *only delivers value if financial and relative total shareholder return targets are met. The value of the remaining 25% of NEOs’ long-term* incentive compensation is in the form of time-based RSUs and *fluctuates with stock price.*		ü
Performance-based RSUs granted in 2012 achieved performance at 141% of target. These awards represented the *first occurrence of vesting* of our performance-based long-term incentive awards and reinforced our commitment to *pay-for-performance*.		ü
We *review and validate* our *pay-for-performance* relationship on an annual basis.		ü
Our non-qualified, supplemental pension plan is a *modified and reduced version* of a predecessor plan, which was frozen in 2008 (no new benefits and no new participants).		ü

Corporate Governance		Status
We *devote significant time* to leadership development and succession efforts.		ü
We *actively engage with our shareholders* by conducting regular meetings with our major shareholders to discuss governance matters.		ü
We utilize an *independent* compensation consultant.		ü
We *disclose* our performance metrics.		ü
We maintain *share ownership guidelines* for our NEOs and directors.		ü
We *do not* have compensation programs that *encourage imprudent risk*.		ü
We maintain *clawback and anti-hedging* policies.		ü
Our equity grant practices, including burn rate and dilution, are conservative (we use shares at a rate well below those of our peers).		ü
We offer *no officer-specific gross-ups* or tax assistance specific to our NEOs.		ü
We maintain a competitive severance program with *appropriate* post-employment provisions.		ü
We *do not* have any individual *change in control agreements* and maintain double-trigger vesting of equity awards upon a change in control.		ü

Leadership Transition

On September 9, 2014, we announced that Mr. O’Neal would retire effective March 1, 2015, after a 43-year career with Delphi and that Mr. Clark, our CFO and Executive Vice President, would become COO effective October 1, 2014 and then succeed Mr. O’Neal as CEO effective March 1, 2015. Following his retirement as CEO, Mr. O’Neal will continue to serve the Company as an advisor through December 31, 2015. We also announced on September 9, 2014 the hiring of Mr. Murphy as our CFO and Executive Vice President, effective October 1, 2014, to succeed Mr. Clark.

In anticipation of Mr. O’Neal’s retirement, and as part of the Board’s robust succession planning efforts, the Board had evaluated a number of potential internal and external candidates over an extended period of time. Critical factors for this evaluation included demonstrated leadership capabilities, drive, a history of strong performance and experience in the industry, as well as the ability to execute a seamless leadership transition. After completing its in-depth evaluation, the Board unanimously concluded that Mr. Clark, who has served as Delphi’s CFO since 2010 and led the Company, along with Mr. O’Neal, through its initial public offering and subsequent successes, would become Delphi’s next CEO. Mr. Clark is a strong leader who has extensive experience across multiple industries. He has demonstrated success in creating and implementing our business strategy in partnership with our leadership team and will continue our focus on driving sustained value creation.

In order to ensure a successful transition, the Board determined that: (1) enhancing Mr. Clark’s ongoing involvement with Delphi’s global operations and customers prior to assuming the CEO role was essential and (2) continued access to Mr. O’Neal would be an invaluable resource.

Accordingly, Mr. Clark was appointed first as COO, in which capacity he continued to report to Mr. O’Neal and assumed responsibility for all business segments and our supply management function. In addition, the Board and Mr. O’Neal agreed that Mr. O’Neal would serve in an advisory role through December 31, 2015, following his retirement from the CEO position.

In view of this change in roles for Mr. Clark, the Board engaged in a thorough search of internal and external candidates for the CFO role. Mr. Murphy was selected for his significant experience in operating and finance senior leadership roles at complex manufacturing companies, his global experience and his experience in the equity and debt capital markets. Most recently he served as President of Praxair, Inc.’s U.S. Industrial Gases business, having previous experience serving as a public company CFO as well as corporate controller.

The following compensation decisions were made to support the leadership transition:

•

Mr. Clark’s compensation was adjusted upon his promotion to the role of COO. His compensation was further adjusted in March 2015 when he became CEO. The compensation adjustments made as of October 1, 2014, when he assumed the COO role, were:

—

An increase in base salary to $900,000;

—

A change in the annual incentive cash target to 125% of base salary; and

—

An additional long-term equity grant with a target value of $1,500,000, of which 75% has performance-based vesting and 25% has time-based vesting.

•

Mr. Clark’s 2015 compensation as CEO includes:

—

Annual base salary of $1,100,000;

18 DELPHI AUTOMOTIVE PLC

2015 NOTICE OF MEETING AND PROXY STATEMENT

Compensation Discussion and Analysis (continued)

—

Annual incentive cash target established at 150% of base salary; and

—

A long-term equity grant with a target value of $7,600,000, of which 75% has performance-based vesting and 25% has time-based vesting.

•

Mr. Murphy’s compensation as CFO includes:

—

Annual base salary of $685,000;

—

Annual incentive cash target established at 100% of base salary;

—

A long-term equity grant with a target value of $2,000,000, of which 75% has performance-based vesting and 25% has time-based vesting; and

—

A one-time sign-on bonus of $1,250,000, intended to replace foregone amounts from Mr. Murphy’s former employer and to incentivize Mr. Murphy to join Delphi. The agreement was for payments of $750,000 in October 2014 and $500,000 in April 2015, with each payment subject to repayment if Mr. Murphy voluntarily terminates his employment for any reason within 12 months of receipt of such payment.

Mr. O’Neal received a one-time transition equity award with a target value of $2,000,000 in February 2015, which will vest in full on December 31, 2015, as compensation for his advisory services through 2015. In light of Mr. O’Neal’s retirement in March 2015, he did not receive the annual long-term incentive award granted to other executives in February 2015.

Continuity Awards During Leadership Transition. The Compensation Committee believes that continuity of a strong leadership team in strategically critical roles helps maintain the Company’s strong performance. Therefore, as part of the planned leadership transition process, the Compensation Committee granted continuity awards to select key officers in the past few years. While a primary objective of the continuity awards was retention of key leaders, the Compensation Committee maintained a performance focus by making 50% of the awards’ grant value performance-based (see “Continuity Awards” section for more details about these awards). We believe these awards enabled our retention of these executives and that the leadership transition will be completed during 2015.

2014 Company Performance Highlights

Our achievements in 2014 included the following:

•

Generating gross business bookings of $25.1 billion, based upon expected volumes and pricing;

•

Compensation Philosophy and Strategy

General Philosophy in Establishing and Making Pay Decisions. It is important that we ensure that our compensation programs encourage executives to make sound decisions that drive long-term value creation. The Compensation Committee utilizes a combination of fixed and variable pay elements in order to achieve the following objectives:

•

Support Delphi’s overall business strategy and results as they relate to long-term value creation;

•

Pay-for-performance by linking incentive compensation to defined short- and long-term performance goals;

•

Attract and retain key executives by providing competitive total compensation opportunities; and

•

Align executive and investor interests by establishing market and investor-relevant metrics that drive shareholder value.

Our pay positioning goal for target total direct compensation (base salary, annual and long-term incentives) for our officer group, including the NEOs, is to approximate the median (50th percentile) of our market. Compensation for individual roles may be positioned higher or lower than the market median where we believe it is appropriate, considering multiple factors, such as each executive’s roles and responsibilities, labor market dynamics, the individual’s performance over time and experience the individual may have in his or her role with Delphi.

Peer Group Analysis. To attract and retain key executives, our goal is to provide compensation opportunities at competitive market pay rates. We have created a compensation structure that focuses on the median of our selected peer companies, but also allows total compensation to vary to reflect certain considerations, such as company performance, individual experience, job responsibilities and performance factors.

An element of this process is selecting a relevant peer group against which we compare our elements of pay. The Compensation Committee reviews and determines the composition of our peer group on an annual basis, considering input from its independent compensation consultant. Effective for 2014, with advice from its independent consultant, the Compensation Committee approved a change to the peer group, reducing the number of peer companies from 18 to 17. Navistar International Corporation was removed from the peer group given its recent performance, including a decline in market capitalization.

Delphi’s 2014 peer group was made up of the following 17 companies, whose aggregate profile was comparable to Delphi in terms of size, industry and competition for executive talent.


AutoLiv Inc.		Illinois Tool Works, Inc.
BorgWarner Inc.		Ingersoll-Rand Plc
Cummins Inc.		Johnson Controls, Inc.
Danaher Corporation		Lear Corporation
Dover Corporation		PACCAR Inc.
Eaton Corporation		Parker-Hannifin Corporation
Emerson Electric Co.		Textron Inc.
Genuine Parts Company		TRW Automotive Holdings Corp.
The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co.

In 2014, target total direct compensation for our CEO and among our other NEOs, on average, was positioned within a competitive range of the market median. Adjustments are typically made when we believe that there is a market or individual performance issue that should be addressed to preserve the best interests of the shareholders.

Shareholder Engagement. During 2014, we enhanced our ongoing engagement with our shareholders by meeting with a significant number of our major institutional investors. These meetings, conducted by members of management, centered

DELPHI AUTOMOTIVE PLC 21

2015 NOTICE OF MEETING AND PROXY STATEMENT

Compensation Discussion and Analysis (continued)

on discussions about our governance and compensation practices. These discussions provided valuable insights into the shareholders’ views of our current governance practices and compensation programs, as well as the shareholders’ voting processes and priorities. The feedback from these investors on our compensation practices has been positive. We will continue to engage with shareholders on a regular basis to better understand and consider their views on our executive compensation programs and corporate governance practices.

Say-on-Pay. At our 2014 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, we received approximately 97.5% of votes cast in support of our executive compensation program. Management and the Compensation Committee reviewed our shareholders’ affirmative 2014 Say-on-Pay vote and believe it to be a strong indication of support for Delphi’s executive compensation program.

Overview of Executive Compensation

We regularly undertake a comprehensive review of our business plan to identify strategic initiatives that should be

linked to compensation. We also assess and review the level of risk in our compensation programs to ensure that they do not encourage imprudent risk-taking.

Elements of Executive Compensation. In line with our compensation philosophy, we annually provide the following primary elements of compensation to our officers, including the NEOs:

•

Base salary;

•

Annual incentive award;

•

Annual long-term incentive award; and

•

Other compensation, which consists of qualified and non-qualified defined contribution plans.

Additional, non-primary elements of executive compensation, such as expatriate or relocation payments, may be provided under various circumstances. These types of elements are reflected in the “All Other Compensation” column of the “2014 Summary Compensation Table”.

Compensation Discussion and Analysis (continued)

The following table outlines the primary elements of compensation and indicates how they relate to our key strategic objectives:


Element	Key Features	Relationship to Objectives
Total Direct Compensation

Base Salary	• Commensurate with responsibilities, experience and performance • Reviewed on a periodic basis for competitiveness and individual performance • Targeted at market median	• Attract and retain key executives

Annual Incentive Plan	• Compensation Committee approves a target incentive pool for each performance period based on selected financial and/or operational metrics • Each executive is granted a target award opportunity varying by level of responsibility • Payouts are determined by achievement of financial goals (at both the corporate and, where applicable, division level), then adjusted to reflect individual performance based on pre-established individual objectives	• Pay-for-performance • Align executive and shareholder interests • Attract, retain and motivate key executives

Long-Term Incentive Plan	• Target award granted commensurate with responsibilities, experience and performance • Issue full share unit awards, 75% weighted on company performance metrics, including use of relative total shareholder return (“TSR”), and 25% time-based, which means that the value is determined by the Company’s stock price	• Pay-for-performance • Align executive and shareholder interests • Attract, retain and motivate key executives • Focus on long-term value creation
Other Compensation

Retirement Programs (Plan names and descriptions provided under “Other Compensation” section)	• Qualified defined contribution plan available to all U.S. salaried employees, including executives • Non-qualified defined contribution plan available to eligible employees, including executives, who exceed statutory limits under our qualified defined contribution plan • Defined benefit plan that was frozen as of September 2008	• Attract and retain key executives

Total Direct Compensation Mix. Base salary, annual and long-term incentive awards make up our executives’ total direct compensation. Delphi strives to ensure that a majority of each executive’s total direct compensation is comprised of performance-based pay. Our annual incentive and long-term

incentive awards are considered performance-based pay because the recipients of these awards must achieve specified performance goals at corporate, division and individual levels to receive any payment.

Mr. O’Neal’s target performance-based pay makes up 88% of his current total target compensation, which includes the 71% of his total target compensation that is derived from long-term incentives. His base salary makes up 12% of his total direct compensation. Our remaining NEOs’ total direct compensation, on average, is comprised of 79% performance-based pay and 21% base salary, with long-term incentives

constituting 57% of total direct compensation. The large proportion of performance-based pay, combined with a focus on long-term incentive awards, aligns the NEOs’ interests with the interests of Delphi’s shareholders.

The mix of compensation for our CEO and other NEOs is shown below:

Annual Compensation Determination. Individual base salaries and annual incentive targets for the officers are established based on the scope of each officer’s responsibilities, individual performance, experience and market pay data. For newly hired officers, the Compensation Committee also

considered the individual’s compensation for his or her prior role at his or her previous employer. At the beginning of each year, we also define the key strategic objectives each officer is expected to achieve during that year, which are evaluated and approved by the Compensation Committee.

Compensation Discussion and Analysis (continued)

Base Salary. Base salary is generally targeted at the median of our peer group and is intended to be commensurate with each executive’s responsibilities, experience and individual performance. For newly hired officers, the Compensation Committee also takes into account the individual’s compensation and role at his or her previous employer.

Our practice is to periodically make pay adjustments. During 2014, two of our NEOs received base salary adjustments due to their expanded responsibilities and peer market compensation reviews. The following table summarizes these adjustments:


Name	Base Salary Adjustment Effective Date	Adjusted Base Salary ($)		Increase (Decrease) (%)
Kevin P. Clark	October 1, 2014	$	900,000		13	%
Majdi B. Abulaban	February 1, 2014		630,000		20

The “2014 Summary Compensation Table” displays 2014 pro rata base salary amounts.

Annual Incentive Plan. Our Annual Incentive Plan is designed to motivate executives to drive company earnings, cash flow before financing and profitable growth by measuring the executives’ performance against the current year business plan at the corporate and relevant division levels. The Compensation Committee sets financial performance metrics for our Annual Incentive Plan at challenging levels to drive superior financial performance, resulting in superior shareholder returns.

The Compensation Committee establishes the annual incentive target for each officer in a manner similar to the process for determining base salary. The approved target is based on his or her position, the size and scope of his or her responsibilities and relevant market pay data. For 2014, the value of two of our NEOs’ annual incentive targets were adjusted in direct correlation to their base salary adjustments, as follows:


Name	Adjusted Annual Incentive Target ($)		Percentage of Salary (%)
Kevin P. Clark	$	1,125,000		125	%
Majdi B. Abulaban		535,000		85

The Compensation Committee, working with management and its independent compensation consultant, also sets the annual incentive plan performance objectives and payout levels based on Delphi’s annual company business objectives, which are then reviewed and approved by the Board. For 2014, each NEO’s award payout was determined as follows:

•

Corporate performance metrics were weighted 100% for Messrs. O’Neal, Clark, Murphy, Spencer and Owens and

25% for Mr. Abulaban, with division performance metrics as the remaining 75%.

•

Individual performance objectives were considered for reduction of the incentive payment if individual objectives were not met.

For 2014, both corporate and division performance objectives were based on the following metrics because these are measures aligned with our business strategy:

•

Corporate performance: Net Income (“NI”), Cash Flow Before Financing (“CFBF”) and Revenue Growth (Bookings).

•

Division performance: Operating Income (“OI”), Simplified Operating Cash Flow (“SOCF”) and Revenue Growth (Bookings).

The Compensation Committee selected the following weightings in 2014 for both Corporate and Division performance metrics:


Performance Metrics	Weighting (%)
NI (Corporate) or OI (Division)⁽¹⁾		50	%
CFBF (Corporate) and SOCF (Division)⁽²⁾		40
Revenue Growth (Bookings)⁽³⁾		10

(1)	NI and OI are appropriate measurements of our underlying earnings for 2014 and a good indication of our overall financial performance.

(2)

CFBF and SOCF are different metrics for measuring cash. CFBF is cash flow before financing, which is defined as cash provided by (used in) operating activities plus cash provided by (used in) investing activities. SOCF is defined, on a divisional basis, as earnings before interest, tax depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”), plus or minus changes in accounts receivable, inventory and accounts payable, less capital expenditures net of proceeds from asset dispositions, plus restructuring expense, less cash expenditures for restructuring.

(3)

Revenue Growth (Bookings) is based on our future business booked in the current fiscal year. In general, in order to achieve the target performance level, a specified percentage of our planned future sales for the next two calendar years must be booked by the end of the measurement period, in this case the end of fiscal year 2014.

The NI / OI and CFBF metrics and the award payout levels related to those metrics are measured on a performance matrix, with threshold, target and maximum financial performance requirements and the payout levels set by the Compensation Committee. Performance below the minimum threshold results in no payout, and performance above the maximum level is capped at a maximum payout, which is 200% of the target award.

Revenue Growth (Bookings) is treated differently from the NI / OI and CFBF metrics, as it includes only a target level without threshold or maximum performance levels. If Revenue Growth (Bookings) is achieved, the target award level for that metric will be paid. If Revenue Growth (Bookings) is not achieved, the entire Revenue Growth (Bookings) portion of the award will not be paid.

2015 NOTICE OF MEETING AND PROXY STATEMENT

Compensation Discussion and Analysis (continued)

The threshold, target and maximum payout levels of our 2014 annual incentive program were:


Performance Level	NI / OI (%)			CFBF / SOCF (%)			Revenue Growth (Bookings) (%)
Threshold		50	%		50	%		0	%
Target		100			100			100
Maximum		200			200			200

The 2014 performance targets relevant to the NEOs were:


Division	NI / OI Target (in millions) ($)		CFBF / SOCF Target (in millions) ($)⁽¹⁾		Revenue Growth 2015 / 2016 (Bookings) Target (%)
Corporate	$	1,494	$	1,075		99% / 91	%
Electrical/Electronic Architecture		1,007		954		98 / 91

(1)

CFBF and SOCF are different metrics for measuring cash. CFBF is cash flow before financing, which is defined as cash provided by (used in) operating activities plus cash provided by (used in) investing activities. SOCF is defined, on a divisional basis, as EBITDA, plus or minus changes in accounts receivable, inventory and accounts payable, less capital expenditures net of proceeds from asset dispositions, plus restructuring expense, less cash expenditures for restructuring.

Given the performance levels required for target payment, 2014 performance at both the Corporate and Division level was above target. As a result, award payout percentages based on Corporate and Division level metrics ranged from 134% to 127% of target for our NEOs.

Once the preliminary earned awards were determined based on the three financial metrics at the Corporate and/or Division level, the Compensation Committee, in conjunction with the CEO, assessed each officer’s performance based on the attainment of individual performance objectives. The CEO did not participate in the assessment of his own performance.

In determining final individual awards, the Compensation Committee evaluates each officer’s performance objectives in relation to the division and overall corporate performance, as applicable. The officer performance objectives relate to specific customer relationships, improved cost structure initiatives, enhancing talent and leadership programs, health and safety goals, product quality objectives as well as specific financial and innovation improvement goals. Each NEO achieved his individual objectives and, therefore, the Compensation Committee did not consider any downward adjustments to the awards.

The Compensation Committee approved the following 2014 annual incentive awards for the NEOs:


Name	Annual Incentive Plan Actual 2014 Payment ($)⁽¹⁾		Percent of Target Incentive (%)
Rodney O’Neal	$	2,613,000		134	%
Kevin P. Clark		1,180,875		134
Mark J. Murphy⁽²⁾		229,475		134
James A. Spencer		938,000		134
Jeffrey J. Owens		840,850		134
Majdi B. Abulaban		670,057		127

(1)	These award amounts are reported in the “Non-Equity Incentive Plan Compensation” column of the “2014 Summary Compensation Table”.

(2)	Mr. Murphy’s award is prorated based on his start date.

Long-Term Incentive Plan. Delphi’s Long-Term Incentive Plan is designed to motivate performance on long-term strategic metrics and retain participants.

Our annual equity awards include both performance-based and time-based RSUs. The time-based RSUs, which make up 25% of NEOs’ long-term award, vest ratably over three years, beginning on the first anniversary of the grant date. The performance-based RSUs, which make up 75% of the NEOs’ long-term award, vest at the completion of a three-year performance period. For the 2014 grant, vesting will occur at the end of 2016. Each NEO will receive between 0% and 200% of his target performance-based award based on the Company’s performance against the following company-wide performance metrics.


Metric	Weighting (%)
Average Return on Net Assets (RONA)⁽¹⁾		50	%
Cumulative Earnings Per Share (EPS)⁽²⁾		30
Relative Total Shareholder Return (TSR)⁽³⁾		20

(1)	Average return on net assets is tax-affected operating income divided by average net working capital plus average net property, plant and equipment for each calendar year.

(2)	Cumulative EPS is net income attributable to Delphi divided by the weighted number of diluted shares outstanding.

(3)

Relative total shareholder return is measured by comparing the average closing price per share of the Company’s ordinary shares for all available trading days in the fourth quarter of 2016 to the average closing price per share of the Company’s ordinary shares for all available trading days in the fourth quarter of 2013, including the reinvestment of dividends, and assessing against a comparable measure of the 2014 Russell 3000 Auto Parts Index companies.

The Long-Term Incentive Plan allows for dividend equivalents to be accrued against unvested RSUs; however, the dividend equivalents vest and pay out only if and to the extent that the underlying RSUs vest and pay out (including satisfying the same performance criteria). Should an executive voluntarily terminate his or her employment prior to the end of a performance period or should performance criteria not be satisfied, such RSUs and dividend equivalents would not vest.

2014 Grant

The Compensation Committee established the following 2014 long-term award targets for our NEOs, taking into account scope of responsibilities, individual performance and market pay data:


Name	2014 Long-Term Incentive Award Targets ($)
Rodney O’Neal	$	8,000,000
Kevin P. Clark⁽¹⁾		3,500,000
Mark J. Murphy		2,000,000
James A. Spencer		1,700,000
Jeffrey J. Owens		1,150,000
Majdi B. Abulaban		1,200,000

(1)	Mr. Clark’s annual long-term incentive award consists of a February 2014 annual grant of $2,000,000 as CFO and an October 2014 grant of $1,500,000 upon his promotion to COO.

These target award values were used to determine the number of shares granted. The accounting values of the long-term incentive awards are reported in the “Stock Awards” column of the “2014 Summary Compensation Table”.

Continuity Awards

In 2013, the Compensation Committee granted continuity awards to Messrs. Clark, Spencer and Owens, consisting of RSUs, of which 50% have performance-based vesting and 50% have time-based vesting. The performance-based RSUs will vest at the end of a three-year performance period in December 2015. The performance metric is average EBITDA margin during the performance period. The time-based RSUs will vest in February 2016.

In February 2015, the Compensation Committee granted continuity awards to Mr. Abulaban and three other key officers of the Company. These awards will cliff-vest four years from

grant and have 50% performance-based vesting and 50% time-based vesting. Similar to our annual long-term incentive award, the performance metric is relative TSR.

Other Compensation. Additional compensation programs available to our executives are generally described below. Typically, only benefits and policies offered to the other salaried employee populations are available to our NEOs.

•

Salaried Retirement Savings Program (“SRSP”). Along with other eligible Delphi salaried employees, our executives are eligible to participate in our broad-based defined contribution plan, the SRSP, which is a qualified plan under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”). All contributions are subject to any contribution limits imposed by the Code.

•

Salaried Retirement Equalization Savings Program (“SRESP”). Under the SRESP, eligible employees receive Delphi contributions in excess of the limits imposed upon the SRSP by the Code. No guaranteed or above-market rates are earned; the investment options available are a subset of those available to all employees under the SRSP. Additional details regarding benefits and payouts under this plan are provided in the “Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation” section.

•

Supplemental Executive Retirement Program (“SERP”). A predecessor SERP was frozen (for purposes of credited service and compensation calculations) in September 2008, as described further under the “Pension Benefits” section.

•

Other Benefits. We also provide additional benefits, such as health and welfare, expatriate and relocation benefits to our NEOs. In general, these benefits are the same as those provided to similarly situated employees.

Significant 2015 Compensation Decisions

The following table summarizes the key 2015 compensation decisions for the NEOs. These decisions will be discussed in more detail in the proxy statement for our 2016 annual meeting.



Kevin P. Clark		Established Mr. Clark’s compensation as COO and established his pay as CEO, beginning March 1, 2015 (see the “Leadership Transition” section).

Rodney O’Neal		Established a transitional consulting arrangement with Mr. O’Neal for 2015 (see the “Leadership Transition” section) to ensure a seamless transition of the CEO role to Mr. Clark. Such arrangement will allow continued access to Mr. O’Neal following his retirement. Mr. O’Neal, in connection with his retirement and pursuant to the terms of the Annual Incentive Plan, will receive a pro rata share of any 2015 annual incentive paid, based on his service as CEO.

Other NEO Compensation		Along with three other key officers of the Company, Mr. Abulaban received a one-time continuity award in February 2015. Mr. Abulaban’s award had a grant value of $5,000,000 and is in addition to his annual equity award. This one-time award was granted for the purpose of retaining key officers in the face of succession changes and ensuring stability of operational leadership, while maintaining a performance-based focus. These awards will cliff-vest in four years, of which 50% has time-based vesting and 50% has performance-based vesting (with relative TSR as the performance metric). This award is subject to the same restrictive covenants (e.g., non-compete, non-interference) as other annual long-term incentive grants.

Annual Incentive Plan Performance Metric Weighting		For division participants, changed the relative weightings between Division and Corporate metrics for awards under the Annual Incentive Plan to 60% Division (previously 75%) and 40% Corporate (previously 25%). This change is designed to improve alignment of Division and Corporate incentives. Also, added a feature permitting the Compensation Committee to approve adjustments to individual payout levels within a range of plus or minus ten percent of target opportunity based on outcome on other qualitative metrics. The change allows for the ability to adjust formulaic, financial metrics and derived payouts for non-financial metric considerations.

Governance Practices

Stock Ownership Guidelines. To support better alignment of our executives’ interests with those of our shareholders, Delphi’s Board believes that our officers should maintain an appropriate level of equity interest in Delphi. To that end, our Board developed the following stock ownership guidelines: The CEO is required to hold a minimum of five times his base salary; our most senior elected officers (typically our Section 16 officers) are required to hold a minimum of three times their base salaries; and our elected corporate staff officers are required to hold a minimum of one time their base salaries in Delphi shares. Our officers, including our NEOs, are expected to fulfill the holding requirement within five years. The Compensation Committee reviews the ownership level for covered executives each year. As of the 2014 measurement of ownership, all but two of our NEOs, Messrs. Abulaban and Murphy, were at or above the applicable

ownership requirement. Although Mr. Abulaban, who is one of our newest Section 16 officers, has two years until his five-year ownership guideline fulfillment date, he will exceed his applicable guideline in early 2015. Mr. Murphy joined the Company in 2014, and, pursuant to our stock ownership guidelines, he has five years to meet his ownership guidelines.

Clawback. As a matter of policy, if our financial statements are materially misstated or in material noncompliance with any financial reporting requirement under securities laws, then the Compensation Committee will review the circumstances and determine if any participants should forfeit certain future awards or repay prior payouts. If the misstatement is due to fraud, then the participants responsible for the fraud will forfeit their rights to future awards and must repay any amounts they received from prior awards due to the fraudulent behavior. The Compensation Committee will update our clawback policy, as appropriate, to comply with the require-

DELPHI AUTOMOTIVE PLC 29

2015 NOTICE OF MEETING AND PROXY STATEMENT

Compensation Discussion and Analysis (continued)

ments for clawbacks under the final provisions of the 2010 Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act.

Restrictive Covenants. All executives, including the NEOs, are required to sign confidentiality and non-interference agreements in order to participate in the Long-Term Incentive Plan. The non-interference agreements include non-compete and non-solicitation covenants, which prevent executives from:

•

Working for a competitor or otherwise directly or indirectly engaging in competition with us for 12 months after leaving Delphi;

•

Soliciting or hiring employees for 24 months after leaving Delphi; and

•

Soliciting customers for 24 months after leaving Delphi.

If the terms of the confidentiality and non-interference agreements are violated, Delphi has the right to cancel or rescind any final Long-Term Incentive Plan award, consistent with applicable law.

No Tax Gross-Ups. We do not provide any tax gross-ups specific to our officer population. Certain expatriate policy and relocation provisions, applicable to all salaried employees, allow for tax gross-ups as reimbursement for additional taxes or expenses incurred due to expatriate status or relocation expenses.

No Hedging. The Company prohibits its directors, officers and employees from engaging in transactions having the effect of hedging the unvested portion of any equity or equity-linked award.

Independent Compensation Consultant. The Compensation Committee retains Compensation Advisory Partners LLC (“CAP”) as its independent compensation consultant. The scope of the work done by CAP for the Compensation Committee includes the following:

•

Preparing analyses and recommendations that inform the Compensation Committee’s decisions;

•

Preparing and evaluating market pay data and competitive position benchmarking;

•

Assisting in the design and development of Delphi’s executive compensation programs;

•

Providing updates on market compensation trends and the regulatory environment as they relate to executive compensation;

•

Reviewing various management proposals presented to the Compensation Committee related to executive compensation; and

•

Working with the Compensation Committee to validate and strengthen the pay-for-performance relationship and alignment with shareholders.

The Compensation Committee has assessed the independence of CAP pursuant to SEC and NYSE rules and concluded that no conflict of interest exists that would prevent CAP from independently representing the Compensation Committee. CAP does not perform other services for Delphi, and will not do so without the prior consent of the Chair of the Compensation Committee. CAP meets with the Compensation Committee Chair and the Compensation Committee outside the presence of management. In addition, CAP participates in all of the Compensation Committee’s meetings and, when requested by the Compensation Committee Chair, in the preparatory meetings and the executive sessions.

Compensation Risk Assessment. Pay Governance, a compensation consultant retained by Delphi, conducted a risk assessment of our compensation programs in 2014 including review of incentives for non-executive participants and concluded that our compensation policies, practices and programs do not create risks that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on Delphi. The analysis included a review of our significant pay programs, the Compensation Committee’s oversight of such programs, which determined that we have strong governance for officer pay programs, and interviews with executives representing Accounting, Finance, HR, Legal and Internal Audit /Compliance.

The Compensation Committee and CAP reviewed the analysis and discussed the report with management. The Compensation Committee agreed that our compensation policies, practices and programs do not create risks that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on Delphi. In doing so, the Compensation Committee also reaffirmed the following key risk mitigating factors with respect to our NEOs:

•

Mix of fixed versus variable, cash versus equity-based and short- versus long-term compensation with an emphasis on equity-based pay;

•

Incentive award opportunities, with performance-based awards capped at two times the target amount, that span both annual and overlapping, multiyear time periods and condition payout on a range of financial metrics (including total shareholder return);

•

Application of a clawback policy; and

•

Stock ownership guidelines, with robust officer ownership levels, and the prohibition of hedging.

2015 NOTICE OF MEETING AND PROXY STATEMENT

Compensation Discussion and Analysis (continued)

Tax and Accounting Considerations

Section 162(m) of the Code limits the tax deductibility of compensation paid to the chief executive officer and each of the next three most highly compensated executive officers (excluding the CFO) that exceeds $1 million in any taxable year unless the compensation over $1 million qualifies as “performance-based” within the meaning of the Code. It is our policy to structure compensation arrangements with our executive officers to qualify as performance-based so as to maximize the tax deductibility of that compensation for U.S. federal income tax purposes; however, there are cases where the benefit of such tax deductibility is outweighed by the need for flexibility or the attainment of other objectives. We may from time to time award compensation that is not tax deductible if the Compensation Committee determines that it is in our and our shareholders’ best interests.

We also structure compensation in a manner intended to avoid the incurrence of any additional tax, interest or penalties under Sections 409A and 457A of the Code, which govern the provision of non-qualified deferred compensation.

We account for stock-based compensation in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718, which requires us to recognize compensation expense relating to share-based payments (such as RSUs) in our financial statements. The recognition of this expense has not caused us to limit or otherwise significantly alter the equity-based element of our executive compensation program. This is because we believe that equity awards are a critical component of a pay-for-performance and competitive executive compensation program. The Compensation Committee considers the potential impact of FASB ASC Topic 718 on any proposed change to the equity compensation element of our program.

(1)	Messrs. Clark and Abulaban received base salary increases in 2014. Mr. Clark’s base salary was increased to $900,000 and Mr. Abulaban’s base salary increased to $630,000.

(2)

Base salary and annual incentive awards are eligible for deferral under the SRESP. All of our NEOs participated in the SRESP in 2014. Total base salaries and annual incentive awards, including the deferred portions, are presented in this Summary Compensation Table. Contributions to the SRESP are displayed in the “Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation” section.

(3)

Messrs. O’Neal and Clark each received a $500,000 continuity bonus on January 15, 2014 based on a 2012 arrangement. They were each entitled to an additional $500,000 award payment on January 14, 2015 based on continued employment with Delphi through December 31, 2014. Mr. Murphy received a sign-on payment of $1,250,000 of which $750,000 was paid in 2014 and an additional $500,000 will be paid in 2015 as replacement of foregone amounts from his prior employer.

(4)

The award values reflected in the “Stock Awards” column are the grant date fair value of the NEOs’ respective long-term incentive awards determined in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718. The 2014 grant dates for accounting purposes for the annual award were set at February 18, 2014, and October 27, 2014 for Messrs. Clark and Murphy’s non-annual awards, as approved by the Board of Directors and Compensation Committee, respectively. For assumptions used in determining the fair value of these awards, see Note 21. Share-Based Compensation to the Consolidated Financial Statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014. The award values include performance-vesting RSUs and reflect the value on the grant date based on the probable outcome of the performance conditions. If maximum performance were achieved, the stock award value would be $16,750,604 for Mr. O’Neal; $6,943,936 for Mr. Clark; $3,674,972 for Mr. Murphy; $3,559,570 for Mr. Spencer; $2,407,845 for Mr. Owens and $2,512,699 for Mr. Abulaban.

(5)	The “Non-Equity Incentive Plan Compensation” column reflects payments made under our Annual Incentive Plan.

(6)

Except for Messrs. Clark and Murphy, all of our NEOs were eligible to receive benefits under the SERP during 2014. The “Change in Pension Value and Non-qualified Deferred Compensation Earnings” column for eligible NEOs reflects the year-over-year change of our estimated liability on our balance sheet. Although the SERP is a frozen program (see “Pension Benefits” section) with fixed measurement parameters, the year-over-year balances change because the NEO’s age and the interest rates used to estimate the award value change each year.

2015 NOTICE OF MEETING AND PROXY STATEMENT

PENSION BENEFITS

Certain executives, including Messrs. O’Neal, Spencer, Owens and Abulaban, are eligible to receive benefits under the SERP. The SERP was approved by the bankruptcy court for retention purposes as part of the formation of Delphi Automotive LLP in 2009.

The SERP is a modified and reduced-benefit form of a pre-bankruptcy supplemental executive defined benefit plan, which was frozen on September 30, 2008. As a result of the freeze, no new benefits have accrued and no new participants have been allowed to join the plan after this date, although a reduced portion of benefits continue to be available to executives who were eligible participants prior to the freeze date. This plan is a non-qualified and unfunded defined benefit plan that supplemented the benefits of an underlying qualified defined benefit pension plan. This qualified plan was assumed by the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation (the “PBGC”) in July 2009.

Eligibility

To qualify for participation in the SERP, eligible executives must meet both of the following requirements:

•

The executive was appointed to an executive position at the former Delphi Corporation, as of September 30, 2008; and

•

The executive was employed by Delphi on October 6, 2009, upon the formation of Delphi Automotive LLP.

To receive benefits under the SERP:

•

The executive must remain continuously employed by Delphi until the earlier of separation, death or disability; and

•

At the time of termination of employment, death or disability, the executive must have at least 10 years of service (unless the executive is involuntarily separated other than for cause, in which case the requirement is five years of service); and be at least 55 years of age (unless the executive is involuntarily separated other than for cause or dies, in which event the eligible executive or the surviving spouse will begin receiving payment of benefits when the executive attains or would have attained age 55).

Participants are only eligible for the SERP upon a voluntary termination if one of the two following requirements is met:

•

The participant has at least 10 years of service and is 60 years old as of the voluntary termination date; or

•

The participant has been employed by the Company for at least two years dating from October 6, 2009.

Of the NEOs, Messrs. O’Neal, Spencer and Owens meet the age and service requirements and are eligible to receive SERP benefits.

SERP Calculation Methods and Assumptions

The formulas of the SERP provide for a benefit that is based on eligible pay multiplied by eligible years of credited service. This benefit is then reduced by several factors, including the following:

•

An unreduced “age 62 benefit” calculated under the former Delphi Corporation’s qualified pension plan (the “SRP”).

•

Social Security benefits.

•

Participant’s departure from the Company prior to age 62.

SERP benefits are reduced by the above factors regardless of whether the participant actually receives these benefits. For example, participants who would otherwise receive a pension benefit under the SRP will actually receive their benefit from the PBGC at a substantially reduced level; however, the higher SRP amount will be used to calculate a reduction of the participant’s SERP benefits.

Under the SERP, a participant receives the higher of one of the two following formulas:

1) Regular formula

benefit

In the regular formula, average monthly base salary is calculated based on the participant’s monthly base salary for the highest-paid 48 months between January 1, 1999 and December 31, 2006. His or her total years of credited service are counted as of December 31, 2006.

The alternative formula bases the benefit on average total direct compensation, which is the average monthly base salary, as defined in the regular formula, plus an average of the

DELPHI AUTOMOTIVE PLC 37

2015 NOTICE OF MEETING AND PROXY STATEMENT

Pension Benefits (continued)

highest four years of annual incentive awards earned during the period through and inclusive of 2006.

In both formulas, service is credited as of December 31, 2006, and under the alternative formula is capped at 35 years. Under both formulas, the benefit is further reduced by an additional 10%. The benefit will be paid out in the form of a five-year annuity.

Valuation Method and Assumptions

The actuarial present value of accumulated benefits for the SERP shown in the 2014 Pension Benefits table is based on benefits accrued as of September 30, 2008, the last day on which benefits were accumulated under the former Delphi Corporation’s qualified plan. The amounts reflect the method and assumptions used in calculating our pension liability under U.S. GAAP as of that date, except that each participant is assumed to remain actively employed until the earliest he or she is eligible for unreduced benefits. The material assumptions used in the calculation were:

•

For determining the benefit obligations discount rate of 2.5% is used, which is developed by RATE:Link, a globally consistent model for markets classified as having deep AA corporate bond markets.

•

The five-year annuity is based on an interest rate of 3.18% and applicable mortality table per Internal Revenue Service Revenue Ruling 2001-62.

All of the figures shown are estimates only; actual benefit amounts will be based on the age, interest rates, mortality rates and other circumstances in effect upon the actual termination of employment or death of the participant.

The following table sets forth information regarding benefits provided to and years of service credited to eligible NEOs under the SERP.

2014 Pension Benefits

2015 NOTICE OF MEETING AND PROXY STATEMENT

NON-QUALIFIED DEFERRED COMPENSATION

The SRESP is a non-qualified deferred compensation program available to a limited number of employees, including the NEOs. Under the SRESP, participants receive Delphi contributions in excess of the limits imposed upon the SRSP, our 401(k) plan, by the Internal Revenue Code.

Plan Benefits

Employees who were eligible for SRESP deferrals in 2014, including the NEOs, were permitted to defer additional income above $260,000, which is the maximum income deferral level imposed upon the SRSP by the Internal Revenue Code in 2014, into a SRESP deferral account. They also received the following benefits:

•

All SRESP-eligible employees receive a Delphi contribution of 4% of their base salary and annual incentive award. This contribution occurs even if the individual does not elect to make deferrals into the SRESP.

•

Eligible employees who made deferral contributions under the SRESP received an additional Delphi matching contribution of 50% on the individual’s voluntary deferrals up to 7% of the base salary and annual incentive award over the qualified plan limit, which constitutes a maximum contribution by Delphi of 3.5% of each eligible employee’s base salary.

Investment Options

Participants in the SRESP may select investment options for their deferred amounts. The investment options consist of

a small selection of index mutual funds and do not offer any guaranteed or above-market returns.

Deferral Election Process

The SRESP deferral election process is conducted prior to the year in which eligible income is earned. For the 2014 plan, deferral elections were required to be made by December 2013. During this process, eligible employees were allowed to make deferral elections related to their 2014 base salary and any annual incentive award based on 2014 performance that would be scheduled to be paid in 2015 (but no later than March 15, 2015).

Distributions

Eligible employees must also elect a distribution date for their deferred amounts. A base salary deferral must remain deferred for a minimum of one year, and any annual incentive deferral must remain deferred for a minimum of two years.

Vesting

All employee deferrals and Delphi contributions are immediately vested.

The values displayed in the table below include contributions to the NEOs’ SRESP accounts by the NEOs and by Delphi in 2014, as well as the aggregate balances of these accounts at the end of 2014.

POTENTIAL PAYMENTS UPON

TERMINATION OR CHANGE IN CONTROL

Employment Arrangements

As part of the formation of Delphi Automotive LLP in 2009, each NEO, other than Messrs. Clark and Murphy, was required to sign a new offer letter with the Company. Messrs. O’Neal, Spencer, Owens and Abulaban each received and signed an offer letter upon beginning their employment in 2009. These offer letters described compensation and benefits provided to the individual. Mr. Murphy received an offer letter upon commencement of his employment in 2014 which provides for our standard terms and conditions of employment and is consistent with the other NEOs’ offer letters.

Mr. Clark received an offer letter upon commencement of his employment in 2010. In addition to describing terms and conditions of employment consistent with those included in the other NEOs’ offer letters, Mr. Clark’s offer letter also includes severance provisions, which provide for 18 months of base pay plus 1.5 times annual bonus target in the event he is terminated by the Company without cause.

We have no individual change in control agreements with any of the NEOs. The only applicable change in control provisions are those provided in our incentive plans, as described below.

Each executive who participates in the annual Long-Term Incentive Plan equity grant must sign a grant agreement, as well as a non-interference and confidentiality agreement, described above in the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” section. The non-interference agreement includes both non-compete and non-solicitation covenants.

Annual Incentive Plan

In the event of a change in control, each executive’s annual incentive target award will be prorated for the time period between the plan start date and the effective change in control date. A payment will also be calculated for that time period based on actual performance and compared to the prorated target, with the executive receiving the larger of the two values. Payment of the award will be made by March 15 of the calendar year following the year in which a change in control occurs.

A change in control under the annual incentive plan occurs if any of the following events occur:

•

A change in ownership or control of Delphi resulting in any person or group other than Delphi or a Delphi employee benefit plan acquiring securities of Delphi possessing more

than 50% of the total combined voting power of Delphi’s equity securities outstanding after such acquisition;

•

The majority of the board as of the date of the initial public offering is replaced by persons whose election was not approved by a majority of the incumbent board; or

•

The sale of all or substantially all of the assets of Delphi, in one or a series of related transactions, to any person or group other than Delphi.

If involuntarily terminated without “Cause” as defined below, each executive, including the NEOs, will also be eligible for a prorated portion of his or her annual incentive award. The period used to determine the prorated award will be the beginning of the performance period to the individual’s termination date.

Long-Term Incentive Plan

An equity award must be outstanding for one year in order to receive any benefit at termination. Upon a voluntary resignation from Delphi, including retirement, except as described below for Messrs. Clark and O’Neal, any time-based RSUs that have not vested will be cancelled. Upon a termination without cause, for good reason or due to death or disability, the time-based RSUs will be pro-rated over the period between the grant date and termination date. Any unvested pro-rata awards will be delivered at the next scheduled vesting date.

Upon a termination without cause, for good reason or due to retirement, death or disability, except as described below for Mr. O’Neal, any outstanding performance-based RSUs will be pro-rated over the period between the grant date and termination date. The final performance payout will be determined at the end of the performance period and shares will be distributed at the time of the general distribution.

As part of a continuity award given to Mr. Clark in 2012, any equity award outstanding for more than one year will be pro-rated upon his departure, provided he remained with Delphi through January 15, 2014.

Mr. O’Neal has a provision in his grant agreement that allows him to retain all target shares (time-based and performance-based) granted in the event of a qualified retirement. Mr. O’Neal was retirement eligible on December 31, 2014 and retired on March 1, 2015.

If an executive voluntarily departs (with the exception of the retirement provisions discussed above) or is terminated for cause, or in the event of any termination prior to the first anniversary of the grant date, all outstanding unvested equity awards will be canceled.

2015 NOTICE OF MEETING AND PROXY STATEMENT

Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control (continued)

“Cause” is defined in the Long-Term Incentive Plan as:

•

Indictment for a felony or for any other crime that has or could be reasonably expected to have an adverse impact on performance of duties to Delphi or on the business or reputation of Delphi;

•

The NEO being the subject of any order regarding a fraudulent violation of securities laws;

•

Conduct in connection with employment or service that is not taken in good faith and has resulted or could reasonably be expected to result in material injury to the business or reputation of Delphi;

•

Willful violation of Delphi’s code of conduct or other material policies;

•

Willful neglect in the performance of duties for Delphi, or willful or repeated failure or refusal to perform these duties; or

•

Material breach of any applicable employment.

“Good Reason” is defined in the Long-Term Incentive Plan as:

•

A material diminution in base salary;

•

A material diminution in authority, duties or responsibilities from those in effect immediately prior to the change in control;

•

Relocation of the NEO’s principal place of employment more than 50 miles from its location immediately prior to the change in control; or

•

Any other action or inaction that is a material breach by Delphi of the agreement under which the NEO provides services to us.

Upon a qualifying termination (or for Mr. O’Neal, upon a termination for any reason) within two years after a change in control, or upon a change in control if a replacement award is not provided, outstanding unvested equity awards will vest as follows:

•

Time-based RSUs will vest in full; and

•

After a determination by the Compensation Committee of the Company’s performance at the time of the change in control, the number of performance-based RSUs that will vest will be equal to the greater of (a) the performance-

based RSUs earned through the change in control date, or (b) 100% of the performance-based RSUs granted.

A replacement award is an award with respect to the stocks of Delphi or its successor that is at least equal in value to the outstanding award, is a publically traded security and has no less favorable terms than the outstanding award. A qualifying termination after a change in control includes any termination by Delphi without cause, or by the NEO for good reason, or due to death or disability.

Severance and SERP Payments

At the time of the formation of Delphi Automotive LLP, certain executives, including the NEOs, were required to choose between receiving consideration under our severance plan, the Separation Allowance Plan or the SERP, in the event that the executive was involuntarily terminated. This irrevocable election prevents an executive from receiving both severance and the non-qualified defined benefit retirement benefits in the event of an involuntary termination.

As such, if the executive is involuntarily terminated from Delphi, he or she will receive either a severance payment under the Separation Allowance Plan or a SERP payment, but not both. Because they are ineligible for the SERP, Messrs. Clark and Murphy would only be eligible to receive a severance payment under the Separation Allowance Plan should they be involuntarily terminated. The table below reflects the plan applicable to each NEO:


Name		Selection
Rodney O’Neal		SERP
Kevin P. Clark		Separation Allowance Plan
Mark J. Murphy		Separation Allowance Plan
James A. Spencer		SERP
Jeffrey J. Owens		SERP
Majdi B. Abulaban		Separation Allowance Plan

The following table describes the payments and benefits to which each NEO would have been entitled had his employment terminated on December 31, 2014 under various scenarios, including an involuntary termination of employment after a change in control of Delphi.

In all scenarios except a voluntary termination, the NEO is entitled to a prorated annual incentive award. If the NEO voluntarily terminates employment, he must have worked on the last business day of the year in order to receive his annual incentive award; if not, the award is forfeited in its entirety. For each NEO, annual incentive award payments are subject to individual performance assessment and will be paid at the conclusion of the performance period.

2015 NOTICE OF MEETING AND PROXY STATEMENT

Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control (continued)

(2)	Upon a qualifying termination following a change in control, the outstanding equity awards would be delivered. The value shown is based on the market value of the award using a per-share price of $72.72, the closing price of our stock on December 31, 2014.

(3)	Messrs. Clark, Murphy and Abulaban are eligible to receive payments under the Separation Allowance Plan. The Separation Allowance Plan payment to each is equal to 18 months of base salary, plus 1.5 times the value of the annual incentive plan target award.

(4)

For involuntary termination without Cause, receipt of benefits under the SERP or Separation Allowance Plan is dependent on the plan applicable to each NEO. For NEOs who elected to receive benefits through the SERP, the payment values are the same as those included in the “Pension Benefits” section. Messrs. Clark and Murphy are ineligible for the SERP. Mr. Clark’s offer letter provided the terms of any severance he would receive upon an involuntary termination.

(5)

In the event of a qualifying termination within two years after a change in control (for Mr. O’Neal, any termination within two years after a change in control) the NEOs’ awards will vest as described under “Long-Term Incentive Plan”. Also as described under “Long-Term Incentive Plan”, if at the time of a change in control the NEOs do not receive replacement awards, their awards will vest upon the change in control regardless of whether their employment is terminated.

(6)	Mr. O’Neal is eligible for his full long-term incentive award upon voluntary departure after attaining age 55 and with 10 years or more of service with the Company provided that the award has been outstanding for at least one year.

(7)

In the event of death, an eligible NEO’s spouse is entitled to immediate payment through the SERP. Amounts are derived from the amounts shown in the “Pension Benefits” section. In addition, any outstanding balance under the SRESP will be paid within 60 days of the NEO’s death to his beneficiary or estate.

(8)	In the event of termination from Delphi due to disability, Messrs. O’Neal, Spencer, Owens and Abulaban would receive the same benefit as a voluntary departure after attaining age 55 and with at least 10 years of service.

In addition to the specific payments and benefits described above, the NEOs also would have been entitled to receive any benefits due under the terms of the SERP, described in further detail in the “Pension Benefits” section, as well as under the SRESP, described in further detail in connection with the “Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation” section. As required by Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code, all NEOs who

have elected to participate in the SRESP must wait six months to receive a payment under the plan by reason of termination of employment. Payments for departure on December 31, 2014 would be made within 60 days after July 1, 2015. All amounts are estimates only, and actual amounts will vary depending upon the facts and circumstances applicable at the time of the triggering event.

REPORT OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE

The information contained in this report shall not be deemed to be “soliciting material” or “filed” or incorporated by reference in future filings with the SEC, or subject to the liabilities of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, except to the extent that the Company specifically incorporates it by reference into a document filed under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

The Audit Committee currently consists of Messrs. Zimmerman (Chairman), Cowger, Mahoney, Sidlik and Wiedemann. All of the members of the Audit Committee are independent directors under the New York Stock Exchange listing standards and the rules of the SEC. In addition, the Board has determined that all members of the Audit Committee are financially literate under the New York Stock Exchange listing standards and that Mr. Zimmerman and Mr. Mahoney qualify as an “audit committee financial expert” under the rules of the SEC.

The Audit Committee operates under a written charter adopted by the Board, which is evaluated annually. The charter of the Audit Committee is available on Delphi’s website at www.delphi.com by clicking on the tab “Investors” and then the caption “Governance Documents” under the heading “Corporate Governance.”

The Audit Committee selects, evaluates and, where deemed appropriate, replaces Delphi’s independent registered public accounting firm. As part of the evaluation of the independent registered public accounting firm, the Audit Committee considers the quality and efficiency of the services provided by the independent registered public accounting firm, the independent registered public accounting firm’s global capabilities and independent registered public accounting firm’s technical expertise and knowledge of the Company’s global operations and industry. In connection with the mandated rotation of the independent registered public accounting firm’s lead engagement partner, the Audit Committee is directly involved in the selection of the new lead engagement partner. The Audit Committee also pre-approves all audit services, engagement fees and terms, and all permitted non-audit engagements, except as otherwise prohibited under applicable law.

Management is responsible for Delphi’s internal controls and the financial reporting process. Delphi’s independent registered public accounting firm is responsible for performing

an audit of Delphi’s consolidated financial statements and the effectiveness of internal controls over financial reporting in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). The Audit Committee’s responsibility is to monitor and oversee these processes.

In this context, the Audit Committee has reviewed Delphi’s audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014 and has met and held discussions with management and Ernst & Young LLP (“EY”), the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. Management represented to the Audit Committee that Delphi’s consolidated financial statements for fiscal year 2014 were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The discussions between the Audit Committee and EY included the matters required to be discussed by Rules on Auditing Standard No. 16, Communications with Audit Committees, and Related and Transitional Amendments to PCAOB Standards.

The Audit Committee received the written disclosures and letter from EY required by the applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding EY’s communications with the Audit Committee concerning its independence, and the Audit Committee discussed with EY the accounting firm’s independence.

Based upon the Audit Committee’s discussions with management and EY and the Audit Committee’s review of the representation of management and the report of EY to the Audit Committee, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board that the audited consolidated financial statements be included in Delphi’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014, filed with the SEC.

The Audit Committee also considered whether non-audit services provided by EY during 2014 were compatible with maintaining their independence and concluded that such non-audit services did not affect their independence.

46 DELPHI AUTOMOTIVE PLC

2015 NOTICE OF MEETING AND PROXY STATEMENT

APPROVAL OF THE DELPHI AUTOMOTIVE PLC LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PLAN, AS AMENDED AND RESTATED

(Resolution 13)

We are asking shareholders to approve the Company’s Long-Term Incentive Plan, as amended and restated, to be effective through April 23, 2025, to maximize the tax deductibility of performance-based awards under Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code, to revise how shares are counted to eliminate the possibility of liberal share counting and to make certain other amendments.

We are NOT asking shareholders to authorize any additional shares.

Introduction

Reasons for Plan Amendment and for Seeking Shareholder Approval. We are asking our shareholders to approve the Delphi Automotive PLC Long-Term Incentive Plan, as amended and restated (the “LTIP”), through which we administer our equity compensation program, so that we have the ability to maximize the tax deductibility of our compensation programs.

Section 162(m) of the Code (“Section 162(m)”) generally limits the federal income tax deduction for compensation paid to each of the chief executive officer and the three other most highly compensated executive officers (other than the chief financial officer) of a publicly held corporation to $1 million per fiscal year, with an exception for “qualified performance-based compensation.” As a newly public company, we have been eligible for a transition relief exemption under Section 162(m). This transition relief exemption expires effective as of this Annual Meeting.

With the expiration of the transition relief exemption, our Board has determined that it would be in the Company’s best interests to preserve the flexibility to grant equity awards that are structured to comply with the qualified performance-based compensation exception under Section 162(m). One of

the requirements of this exception is that the material terms of the performance goals under which compensation may be paid be disclosed to and approved by the Company’s shareholders, initially and then again every five years. Accordingly, our shareholders are being asked to approve an amended LTIP, including the material terms of the performance goals under the LTIP and the term of the plan.

Shareholders are not being asked to authorize any additional shares.

Importance of Equity Awards. Equity awards are an essential component of our compensation program for key employees, as they link compensation with long-term shareholder value creation and reward participants based on the Company’s performance. As discussed in further detail in the “Compensation Discussion & Analysis”, equity compensation represents a significant portion of the compensation package for our chief executive officer and other NEOs. Because our equity awards generally vest over multiple years, the value ultimately realized from these awards depends on the long-term value of our ordinary shares. Our equity compensation program helps us to attract and retain talent in a highly competitive market, targeting individuals who are motivated by pay-for-performance.

DELPHI AUTOMOTIVE PLC 47

2015 NOTICE OF MEETING AND PROXY STATEMENT

Approval of the Delphi Automotive Plc Long-Term Incentive Plan, as Amended and Restated (continued)

Consequences of Non-Approval. If the amended LTIP is not approved, due to the application of Section 162(m), equity awards for 2015 and future years awarded to our chief executive officer and our next three most highly compensated executive officers (other than our chief financial officer) may not be fully tax deductible to the Company. Also, the proposed amendment to eliminate liberal share counting by excluding shares surrendered or withheld in payment of taxes or the exercise price of stock options, as well as other changes to the plan, will not go into effect.


Key Plan Features		Status
We are *not* asking shareholders to approve *any new shares*.		ü
The LTIP *places specific limits on the number of shares* that can be issued for awards granted under the LTIP and that may be awarded to any individual during a calendar year.		ü
The LTIP is being amended so as to *eliminate liberal share counting*.		ü
The LTIP *prohibits* granting *discounted stock options and SARs*.		ü
The LTIP *prohibits stock option or SAR repricing*.		ü
The LTIP has *no evergreen features*.		ü
All awards under the LTIP are subject to *double-trigger vesting* upon a change in control.		ü
Awards under the LTIP are generally subject to a *minimum one-year vesting* period.		ü
The LTIP does *not* provide for *any tax gross-ups* for excise taxes payable in connection with a change in control.		ü
Our agreements with participants require that awards are subject to *forfeiture and clawback* provisions.		ü
The LTIP is administered by our *independent Compensation Committee*		ü

Historic Share Usage and Grant Practices. Our historic equity usage has been effective in recruiting and retaining superior talent and aligning management incentives with Company performance. Our equity usage is conservative in comparison with the broader market as well as with the peer companies listed in the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis.” As part of our assessment of our grant practices, we regularly measure our share usage and the potential dilutive effects of future equity grants through the use of “burn rate” and “overhang.”

•

Burn Rate. Burn rate is calculated as the number of shares underlying full-value awards and stock options granted, expressed as a percent of the Company’s total number of outstanding shares. Adjusted burn rate is calculated using an assumed multiplier of 2.5 that places a higher value on full-value awards than stock options. As we have not granted stock options, the adjusted burn rate metric provides a more comparable view of our share usage against that of our peers, as the majority of our peers grant stock options in addition to full-value awards. Over the past three years (2012, 2013 and 2014), our annual shares granted (which shares were only granted under full-value awards) as a percentage of shares outstanding has been 0.6%, 0.5% and 0.3%, respectively. Our three-year average burn rate is 0.5%, and our adjusted burn rate for 2014 was 0.8%. Our 2014 burn rate, adjusted burn rate and three-year average burn rate are all below market (generally at or less than the 25th percentile) as compared to the burn rates of our peer companies. The median three-year average burn rate of our peers is approximately 0.9% and the median adjusted burn rate is approximately 1.4%.

•

Equity Overhang. Equity overhang measures the potential dilutive effects of future grants under the LTIP and is calculated by dividing the total number of shares underlying outstanding awards plus the total number of shares available for future grants by the Company’s total number of outstanding shares. Our 2014 overhang of 7.2% was below the median overhang of our peer companies, which was approximately 9.2% in recent years.

The 17,645,273 shares carried forward under the amended LTIP represent approximately 6% of the total number of ordinary shares outstanding as of February 23, 2015. At the time of our initial public offering (“IPO”) in November 2011, our Board (who were advised by an independent compensation consultant to the Compensation Committee) and our shareholders approved our decision to reserve a number of shares equal to approximately 7% of the then-outstanding ordinary shares for issuance under the LTIP. Based on our anticipated grant practices, we believed that this was an appropriate number of shares, and our Board and shareholders supported that decision.

During the past three years, we have granted long-term incentive awards to our employees and directors exclusively under the LTIP. Prior to our IPO, we granted long-term incentive awards to our employees under the Second Amended and Restated Delphi Automotive LLP 2010 Management Value Creation Plan (the “VCP”). We have not granted any awards under the VCP since 2011 and, due to the expiration of that plan, we deregistered the 6,282,770 shares that remained available and unused under the VCP in January 2015. As a result of that deregistration, the only shares that remain available for grants of long-term incentive awards to employees are those under the LTIP.

2015 NOTICE OF MEETING AND PROXY STATEMENT

Approval of the Delphi Automotive Plc Long-Term Incentive Plan, as Amended and Restated (continued)

Due to our strong financial performance in recent years, which benefitted from the efforts of our key employees, our share price has increased from an IPO price of $22 per share to $79.20 per share, which was the closing price on February 23, 2015. As a result, the LTIP continues to have a sufficient number of shares available for issuance such that we are not asking our shareholders to authorize any additional shares. We believe that the number of shares that are currently available will allow us to continue to support our ability to attract and retain talented employees. While we intend to maintain our history of conservative grant practices, the number of shares available under the amended LTIP will enable us to continue to be responsive to changing market needs and to compensate our employees in a manner that corresponds with the evolving nature of our business. Considering our historical grant practices and our low burn rate and overhang, described herein, we believe that our current share authorization will continue to serve the best interests of our shareholders.

Key Plan Features. The LTIP authorizes grants of a variety of equity awards, including performance awards, RSUs, restricted stock, non-qualified stock options (“NQSOs”), incentive stock options (“ISOs”), stock appreciation rights (“SARs”) and other share-based awards. We use these awards to attract, motivate, retain and reward our key employees, directors and consultants. The LTIP includes features that protect our shareholders’ interests and promote effective corporate governance, including:

•

Not Seeking Approval of Additional Shares. We are not asking shareholders to approve any new shares under the LTIP.

•

Limits on Shares Authorized and Individual Award Levels. The LTIP authorizes us to issue a maximum of 17,645,273 ordinary shares for awards granted under the LTIP, adjusted as described in the LTIP. No more than 2 million shares may be awarded to any one individual within a calendar year.

•

No Liberal Share Counting. The LTIP is being amended to eliminate the re-use of any shares that are withheld or delivered to satisfy the exercise price of a stock option or SAR or to satisfy tax withholding requirements.

•

No Discounted Stock Options or SARs. The LTIP expressly prohibits us from granting stock options or SARs with an exercise price that is less than the fair market value of our ordinary shares on the date of grant. Under the existing LTIP, we have never granted a discounted stock option or SAR.

•

No Repricing of Stock Options or SARs. The LTIP expressly prohibits the direct or indirect repricing of stock options or SARs without shareholder approval.

•

No Evergreen Features. The maximum number of shares that can be issued from the LTIP is fixed and cannot be increased without shareholder approval.

•

Double-Trigger Change in Control Vesting. If the awards granted under the LTIP are assumed by a successor in connection with a change in control of the Company, such awards will not automatically vest and pay out solely as a result of the change in control.

•

Minimum One-Year Vesting. The LTIP imposes a one-year minimum vesting period for awards, with the exception of 5% of the shares available, which may be used in circumstances in which a shorter vesting period is deemed to be appropriate.

•

No Gross-Ups for Excise Taxes Paid by Participant. The LTIP does not provide for the reimbursement of participants for any excise taxes paid by the participant in connection with a payment or a distribution following a change in control.

•

Awards Are Subject to Forfeiture/Clawback. The LTIP provides that awards are subject to recoupment under certain circumstances.

•

Independent Committee Administration. The LTIP will continue to be administered by the Compensation Committee, which is made up entirely of independent directors.

Summary of the Material Provisions of the LTIP

The following is a brief description of the material features of the LTIP, as amended. The full text of the LTIP is set forth in Appendix B to this Proxy Statement. The description set forth below is qualified in its entirety by reference to Appendix B.

Purpose. The purpose of the LTIP is to motivate and reward those employees, non-employee directors and other service providers who are expected to contribute significantly to the success of the Company and its affiliates.

Plan Term. As originally adopted, the LTIP will expire on November 14, 2021. If this proposal is approved by shareholders, then no awards may be granted under the LTIP after April 23, 2025, unless prior to that date the maximum number of our ordinary shares available for issuance under the plan has been issued or our Board terminates the plan.

Authorized Shares. 22,977,116 of our ordinary shares are available for issuance under the LTIP, adjusted as described in the LTIP. As of February 23, 2015, there were 17,645,273 ordinary shares of the Company available for issuance under the LTIP. If an award expires or is canceled or forfeited, the shares covered by such award will again be available for issuance under the LTIP. However, shares tendered or withheld in payment of an exercise price or for withholding taxes will not

DELPHI AUTOMOTIVE PLC 49

2015 NOTICE OF MEETING AND PROXY STATEMENT

Approval of the Delphi Automotive Plc Long-Term Incentive Plan, as Amended and Restated (continued)

become available for issuance under the LTIP. Shares underlying replacement awards, which are awards granted in assumption of or substitution for outstanding awards previously granted by another company that we acquire or with which we combine, will not reduce the number of shares available for issuance under the LTIP.

Administration. The LTIP is administered by the Compensation Committee, which is comprised of independent directors. The Compensation Committee has the authority to select individuals to whom awards are granted and determine the types of awards and number of shares covered and the terms and conditions of awards, including the applicable vesting schedule, performance conditions and whether the award will be settled in cash or shares. Subject to certain limitations, the Compensation Committee may delegate the authority to grant awards under the LTIP to one or more officers of the Company.

Eligibility. Our employees, non-employee directors, consultants, advisors and other service providers are eligible to receive awards under the LTIP. As of December 31, 2014, the Company had approximately 127,000 employees, non-employee directors, consultants, advisors and other service providers who were eligible to receive awards under the LTIP.

Types of Awards. The LTIP provides for grants of performance awards, RSUs, restricted stock, NQSOs, ISOs, SARs and other share-based awards.

•

Performance Awards. Performance awards, which may be denominated in cash or shares, will be earned upon the satisfaction of performance conditions specified by the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee has the authority to condition the exercisability or settlement of any other award granted under the LTIP upon the satisfaction of performance conditions, thus designating any award granted under the LTIP as a performance award. The performance conditions with respect to awards that are intended to qualify as “performance-based compensation” for purposes of Section 162(m) will be based on any of:

—

Market capitalization, stock price, value appreciation, total shareholder return;

—

Revenue, sales, bookings, unit volume, production;

—

Pretax income, earnings, earnings per share, net income, operating income, EBIT (earnings before interest and taxes), EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization), operating or profit margin;

—

Cost structure, restructuring, expense control, overhead costs, general and administration expense;

—

Economic value added, net capital employed, net asset value, reserve value;

—

Market share, customer satisfaction or service quality;

—

Capacity utilization, reserve replacement, increase in customer base, customer diversification;

—

Cash flow, cash from operations, debt leverage, debt to equity ratio;

—

Return on assets or RONA, return on equity, return on capital, assets levels, asset turnover, inventory turnover;

—

Environmental health and safety, diversity, productivity, risk mitigation, corporate compliance, employee retention or engagement; and

—

Goals relating to acquisitions or divestitures.

These performance criteria may be measured on an absolute (e.g., plan or budget) or relative basis. Relative performance may be measured against a group of peer companies, a financial market index or other acceptable objective and quantifiable indices. Performance may be measured at the consolidated, individual, group, division, business unit, subsidiary, regional, geographical, department or functional level. The Compensation Committee has the discretion to adjust the level of achievement due to changes in corporate circumstances, except in the case of performance awards that are intended to qualify for deductibility under Section 162(m). No performance award that is denominated in cash may exceed a maximum of $12 million in any calendar year.

•

Restricted Stock Units. RSUs represent a contractual right to receive the value of an ordinary share at a future date, subject to specified vesting and other restrictions. RSUs may be subject to restrictions, including performance restrictions, which may lapse as the Compensation Committee deems appropriate. Following the lapse of any restrictions, RSUs may be settled in cash, ordinary shares, other awards, other property or a combination of the foregoing, as determined by the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee may set forth in the applicable award agreement whether an award of RSUs is entitled to dividends or dividend equivalents, voting rights or any other rights.

•

Restricted Stock. Restricted stock is an award of ordinary shares that are subject to restrictions on transfer and a substantial risk of forfeiture. Restricted stock may be subject to restrictions, including performance restrictions, which may lapse as the Compensation Committee deems appropriate. The Compensation Committee may set forth in the applicable award agreement whether an award of restricted stock is entitled to dividends or dividend equivalents, voting rights or any other rights.

50 DELPHI AUTOMOTIVE PLC

2015 NOTICE OF MEETING AND PROXY STATEMENT

Approval of the Delphi Automotive Plc Long-Term Incentive Plan, as Amended and Restated (continued)

•

Stock Options. A stock option is a contractual right to acquire shares at a future date at a specified exercise price. The Compensation Committee is authorized to grant both ISOs and NQSOs. The per share exercise price of a stock option will be determined by the Compensation Committee but, except in the case of a replacement award, may not be less than the closing price of an ordinary share on the grant date. The Compensation Committee will determine the date after which each stock option may be exercised and the expiration date of each option. However, no stock option will be exercisable more than 10 years from the grant date. Stock options that are intended to qualify as ISOs must meet the requirements of Section 422 of the Code.

•

Stock Appreciation Rights. A SAR is a contractual right to receive, in cash or shares, an amount equal to the appreciation of one ordinary share from the grant date. SARs may be granted either alone, as freestanding awards, or in addition to other awards granted under the LTIP (which such awards may, but do not need to be, stock options). Any SAR will be granted subject to the same terms and conditions that apply to stock options, as described above.

•

Other Share-Based Awards. The Compensation Committee is authorized to grant other share-based awards, which may be denominated in ordinary shares or factors that may influence the value of our shares, including convertible or exchangeable debt securities, other rights convertible or exchangeable into shares, acquisition rights for shares, awards with value and payment contingent upon our performance or business units or any other factors that the Compensation Committee specifies.

Participant Limits. Subject to adjustment as described below, no participant is able to receive under the LTIP in any calendar year performance awards, RSUs, restricted stock and other share-based awards (to the extent such awards are denominated in shares and intended to qualify as “performance-based compensation” for purposes of Section 162(m)) that relate to more than 2 million shares and stock options and stock appreciation rights that relate to more than 2 million shares.

Adjustments. If the Compensation Committee determines that an adjustment is appropriate, it will equitably adjust the terms of any outstanding awards and the number of ordinary shares issuable under the LTIP to reflect any change in the ordinary shares resulting from a dividend or other distribution, recapitalization, stock split, reverse stock split, reorganization, merger, consolidation, split-up, spin-off, combination, repurchase or exchange of our ordinary shares or other securities, issuance of warrants or other rights to acquire our ordi-

nary shares or other securities, issuance of our ordinary shares pursuant to the anti-dilution provisions of our securities or any other similar corporate transaction or event affecting our ordinary shares.

Prohibition on Stock Option and SAR Repricing. The Compensation Committee may not reprice any stock option or SAR or make any other amendment to a stock option or SAR that has the effect of reducing its exercise price or cancel a stock option or SAR in exchange for cash or another award without shareholder approval. An equitable adjustment to reflect a corporate transaction, as described above, is not a prohibited repricing.

Minimum Vesting Requirements. Awards granted under the LTIP, other than replacement awards or awards that vest pursuant to a termination of service or change in control (as described below), may not vest in full prior to the one-year anniversary of their grant date. However, the Compensation Committee may grant awards with other vesting schedules, as long as the shares granted pursuant to such awards (not counting shares underlying performance awards) do not exceed five percent of the shares available for awards under the LTIP.

Termination of Service and Change in Control. The Compensation Committee will determine the effect of a termination of employment or service on outstanding awards, including whether the awards will vest, become exercisable, settle or be forfeited. The Compensation Committee may set forth in the applicable award agreement the treatment of an award upon a change in control. In addition, in the case of certain awards, upon a change in control, merger or consolidation involving us, or any other event with respect to which it deems it appropriate, except as otherwise provided in the applicable award agreement, the Compensation Committee will have the discretion to cancel the award and either accelerate the award and, as applicable, provide the holder at least 10 days to exercise the award or cash out the award for its intrinsic value, or replace the award with a substitute award that preserves the intrinsic value of, and has terms and conditions not less favorable to the participant than, the original award.

The LTIP generally defines a “change in control” to mean:

•

a transaction or series of related transactions within a 12-month period whereby any person or group of persons acquires or maintains more than 30% of the combined voting power of our outstanding securities;

•

the replacement of the majority of directors during any 12-month period (other than by directors approved by a majority of the remaining directors);

DELPHI AUTOMOTIVE PLC 51

2015 NOTICE OF MEETING AND PROXY STATEMENT

Approval of the Delphi Automotive Plc Long-Term Incentive Plan, as Amended and Restated (continued)

•

the consummation of our merger or consolidation with another entity (unless our voting securities outstanding immediately prior to such transaction continue to represent at least 50% of the combined voting power and total fair market value of our securities or those of the surviving entity outstanding immediately after such transaction); or

•

the transfer within a 12-month period of all or substantially all of the assets of us and our subsidiaries.

If the terms of an award whose terms provide for the acceleration of amounts that are considered “deferred compensation” under Section 409A of the Code (“Section 409A”) and the “change in control” triggering the acceleration does not constitute a change in control for purposes of Section 409A, the award will be paid out on its scheduled payment dates, to the extent necessary to avoid incurring penalties under Section 409A.

Amendment and Termination. Our Board may amend, alter, suspend, discontinue or terminate the LTIP, subject to the approval of our shareholders if required by the rules of the exchange on which our shares are principally traded. The Compensation Committee may amend, alter, suspend, discontinue or terminate any outstanding award. However, no such Board or committee action that would materially adversely affect the rights of a holder of an outstanding award may be taken without the holder’s consent.

New Plan Benefits

Any awards under the LTIP will be at the discretion of the Compensation Committee. It is not possible at present to determine the amount or the form of any award that will be granted to any individual during the term of the LTIP.

U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences

The following is a summary of the U.S. federal income tax consequences associated with awards under the LTIP, as of the date of this proxy statement. The federal tax laws are complex and subject to change, and the tax consequences for any LTIP participant will be dependent on his or her individual circumstances.

•

Restricted Stock Units. The grant of an award of RSUs will not result in income for the participant or in a tax deduction for the Company. Upon the settlement of the award, the participant will recognize ordinary income equal to the aggregate value of the payment received, and the Company will generally be entitled to a tax deduction in the same amount.

•

Restricted Stock. A participant will not recognize any income upon the receipt of restricted stock unless the par-

ticipant elects under Section 83(b) of the Code, within thirty days of receipt, to recognize ordinary income in an amount equal to the fair market value of the restricted stock at the time of receipt, less any amount paid for the shares. If an election is made, the participant will not be allowed a deduction for amounts subsequently required to be returned to the Company. If an election is not made, the participant will generally recognize ordinary income on the date that the shares are no longer subject to restrictions, in an amount equal to the fair market value of the shares on such date, less any amount paid for the shares. The Company is generally entitled to a tax deduction at the time the participant recognizes ordinary income, in the same amount.

•

Nonqualified Stock Options. The grant of an NQSO will not result in an income event for the participant or in a tax deduction for the Company. Upon the exercise of an NQSO, the excess of the fair market value of the underlying ordinary shares on the exercise date less the stock option exercise price will be taxable as income to the participant and will be subject to the applicable withholding taxes. The Company is generally entitled to a tax deduction at the same time in the same amount. The participant’s tax basis for shares received pursuant to the exercise of an NQSO will equal the sum of the income recognized and the exercise price. Special rules apply in the event that all or a portion of the exercise price is paid in the form of ordinary shares of the Company. Gain or loss upon a subsequent sale of any shares received upon the exercise of NQSOs will generally be taxed as long-term or short-term capital gain or loss, depending upon the holding period of the shares sold.

•

ISOs. The grant of an ISO will not result in an income event for the participant or in a tax deduction for the Company. However, the excess of the fair market value of the shares of ordinary shares as of the date of exercise less the exercise price will constitute an adjustment to taxable income for purposes of the alternative minimum tax. If the shares are not disposed of within the one-year period beginning on the date of the transfer of such shares to the participant or within the two-year period beginning on the date of grant of the stock option, any profit realized by the participant upon the disposition of such shares will be taxed as long-term capital gain and no deduction will be allowed to the Company. If the shares are disposed of within the one-year period from the date of transfer of such shares to the participant or within the two-year period from the date of grant of the stock option, the excess of the fair market value of the shares on the date of exercise or, if less, the fair market value on the date of disposition, less the exercise price will be taxable as ordinary income to the

2015 NOTICE OF MEETING AND PROXY STATEMENT

Approval of the Delphi Automotive Plc Long-Term Incentive Plan, as Amended and Restated (continued)

participant at the time of disposition, and a corresponding deduction will be allowable to the Company. Special rules apply in the event that all or a portion of the exercise price is paid in the form of ordinary shares of the Company.

•

SARs. The grant of a SAR will not result in an income event for the participant or in a tax deduction for the Company. Upon the exercise of a SAR, the excess of the fair market value of the underlying ordinary shares on the exercise date less the option exercise price will be taxable

as income to the participant and will be subject to the applicable withholding taxes. Gain or loss upon a subsequent sale of any shares received upon the exercise of SARs will generally be taxed as long-term or short-term capital gain or loss, depending upon the holding period of the shares sold.

The Board of Directors recommends a vote “FOR” the approval of the Delphi Automotive PLC Long-Term Incentive Plan, as proposed to be amended.

DELPHI AUTOMOTIVE PLC 53

2015 NOTICE OF MEETING AND PROXY STATEMENT

APPROVAL OF THE DELPHI AUTOMOTIVE PLC LEADERSHIP INCENTIVE PLAN

(Resolution 14)

We are asking shareholders to approve the Company’s Leadership Incentive Plan, which will allow us to structure grants of certain incentive awards to key executives to maximize their tax deductibility as performance-based awards under Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code.

With the expiration of our transition relief exemption under Section 162(m), our Board has determined that it would be in the Company’s best interests to preserve the flexibility to grant certain incentive awards for 2015 and future years, including awards under the Company’s Annual Incentive Plan, that are structured to comply with the qualified performance-based compensation exception under Section 162(m), and therefore has adopted the Delphi Automotive PLC Leadership Incentive Plan (the “DLIP”) under which such awards may be granted. One of the requirements of the qualified performance-based compensation exception under Section 162(m) is that the material terms of the performance goals under which compensation may be paid be disclosed to and approved by the Company’s shareholders. Accordingly, our shareholders are being asked to approve the DLIP, including the material terms of the performance goals under the DLIP.

If our shareholders approve the DLIP (including the material terms of the performance goals under the DLIP), then certain incentive awards for 2015 and future years, including awards under the Company’s Annual Incentive Plan, awarded to our chief executive officer and our next three most highly compensated executive officers (other than our chief financial officer) may be structured to comply with the qualified performance-based compensation exception under Section 162(m), subject to compliance with the terms of the DLIP. If our shareholders do not approve the DLIP, then, due to the application of Section 162(m), certain incentive awards for 2015 and future years, including awards under the Company’s Annual Incentive Plan, awarded to our chief executive officer and our next three most highly compensated executive officers (other than our chief financial officer) may not be fully tax deductible to the Company. In addition, if the DLIP is not approved by our shareholders at this Annual Meeting, any awards granted under the DLIP will be null and void.

Summary of the Material Terms of the DLIP

The following is a brief description of the material features of the DLIP. As discussed, our Board adopted the DLIP to allow for certain incentive awards to meet the requirements of qualified performance-based compensation exception under Section 162(m). The full text of the DLIP is set forth in Appendix C

to this Proxy Statement. The description set forth below is qualified in its entirety by reference to Appendix C.

Purpose. The purpose of the DLIP is to attract and retain qualified executive officers through financial incentives, while allowing to the Company to receive a tax deduction for such incentives under the “performance-based compensation” exception to Section 162(m).

Administration. The DLIP is administered by the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee has the authority to designate DLIP participants and determine the types of awards, the value underlying each award and the terms and conditions of awards, including whether the award will be settled in cash or shares.

Eligibility. The Company’s chief executive officer and any other executive officers of the Company who are or may be “covered employees” of the Company as defined in Section 162(m) are eligible to participate in the DLIP. As described below, the Compensation Committee will designate which, if any, of the eligible participants will participate in the DLIP for any given performance period.

Award Denomination. Awards under the DLIP may be paid in cash, unrestricted or restricted ordinary shares of the Company or a combination thereof.

Performance Period. The performance period for the DLIP will be either the Company’s fiscal year or such other period that the Compensation Committee may establish.

Plan Operation. No later than the 90th day after commencement of a performance period, the Compensation Committee will designate and approve in writing:

•

the performance period;

•

the employees who will be participants in the DLIP for the performance period; and

•

the formula governing each participant’s award for the performance period.

Formula Amount. The formula amount for each participant with respect to each performance period will be an amount equal to 1% (which may be reduced by the Compensation Committee) of the Company’s net income as reported in the

54 DELPHI AUTOMOTIVE PLC

2015 NOTICE OF MEETING AND PROXY STATEMENT

Approval of the Delphi Automotive PLC Leadership Incentive Plan (continued)

Company’s quarterly or annual earnings release, as applicable, but in no event shall any participant’s award exceed $12 million in any fiscal year.

Adjustments. To the extent permitted by Section 162(m), the Compensation Committee will adjust the level of net income for material items not originally contemplated in establishing the performance target, including discontinued operations, extraordinary gains and losses, the effect of changes in accounting standards or principles, acquisitions or divestitures, changes in tax rules or regulations, capital transactions, restructuring, nonrecurring gains or losses or other unusual items. Any adjustments must be done in a manner intended to satisfy the requirements of Section 162(m).

Certification of Performance Goals and Determination of Incentive Amount. No later than March 15 following the end of each performance period, the Compensation Committee will certify in writing the level of net income achievement for the performance period and the dollar amount of each participant’s incentive amount for the performance period. At any time before incentive amounts under the DLIP are paid, the Compensation Committee may adjust any participant’s incentive amount downward from the amount determined under the formula amount (described above), but in no event

will any participant’s incentive amount be adjusted above his or her formula amount. Incentive amounts will generally be paid no later than March 15 following the end of the performance period to which the incentive amounts relate.

Amendment and Termination. Our Board may amend, alter, suspend, discontinue or terminate the DLIP, subject to the approval of our shareholders if required by the rules of the exchange on which our shares are principally traded. The Compensation Committee may amend, alter, suspend, discontinue or terminate any outstanding award. However, no such Board or committee action that would materially adversely affect the rights of a holder of an outstanding award may be taken without the holder’s consent.

New Plan Benefits

Any awards under the DLIP will be at the discretion of the Compensation Committee. It is not possible at present to determine the amount or the form of any award that will be granted to any individual during the term of the DLIP.

The Board of Directors recommends a vote “FOR” the approval of the Delphi Automotive PLC Leadership Incentive Plan.

ADVISORY VOTE TO APPROVE EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

(Resolution 15)

As required by Section 14A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, we are providing shareholders with the opportunity to cast an advisory, non-binding vote on the compensation of our named executive officers as disclosed in this Proxy Statement.

Our executive compensation programs are designed to align executive and shareholder interests by reinforcing the long-term growth, value creation and sustainability of Delphi and to ensure that the majority of compensation opportunities are a result of pay-for-performance.

The Company is presenting Resolution 15, which gives shareholders the opportunity to approve or not approve our compensation program for NEOs by voting for or against the following resolution (a “say-on-pay” vote). While the vote on the resolution is advisory in nature and therefore will not bind

us to take any particular action, the Board intends to carefully consider the shareholder vote resulting from the proposal in making future decisions regarding the Company’s compensation programs.

“RESOLVED, that the Company’s shareholders approve, on an advisory, non-binding basis, the compensation paid to the Company’s named executive officers as disclosed in the Proxy Statement accompanying this notice pursuant to the Securities and Exchange Commission’s compensation disclosure rules, including the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis,” the compensation tables and narrative discussion.”

The Board of Directors recommends a vote “FOR” approval of the compensation of the Company’s NEOs, as disclosed in this Proxy Statement, on an advisory, non-binding basis.

Each of our executive officers employed by Delphi at the time of grant, including named executive officers, received RSUs in 2013, 2014 and 2015 that represent a right to receive one ordinary share pursuant to the Long-Term Incentive Plan. Of the RSUs held by the executive officers, 25% will vest ratably over three years beginning on the date of grant and 75% will vest based on Delphi’s performance beginning on the date of grant through the end of a performance period established for each of the grants. Unvested RSUs are not included in the table above because such shares are not issuable within 60 days.

Each of the non-employee directors, other than Mr. Manganello, received RSUs that represent a right to receive one ordinary share pursuant to the Long-Term Incentive Plan. These RSUs will vest in full on April 22, 2015 and are included in the table. Messrs. Krol, Zimmerman, Gupta and Donofrio were granted 4,303, 2,367, 2,324 and 2,238 RSUs, respectively, and Messrs.

RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The Board has adopted a written Related Party Transaction Policy. Pursuant to this policy, the Company’s executive officers, directors and nominees for directors must promptly disclose any actual or potential material conflict of interest to our General Counsel, who will then assess and communicate the information to the Nominating and Governance Committee for evaluation and appropriate resolution. The Nominating and Governance Committee will generally not approve or ratify a related party transaction unless it has determined that, upon consideration of all relevant information, the related party transaction is in, or not inconsistent with, the best interests of the Company and its shareholders. If we become aware of an existing related party transaction that has not been pre-approved under our Related Party Transaction Policy, the transaction will be referred to the Nominating and Governance Committee, which will evaluate all options available, including ratification, revision or termination of such transaction.

No reportable related party transactions were identified during 2014.

OTHER INFORMATION

Presentation of Accounts

Under Jersey law, the directors are required to present the accounts of the Company and the reports of the directors and auditors before shareholders at a general meeting. Therefore, the accounts of the Company for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014 will be presented to the shareholders at the Annual Meeting.

Other Business

Management does not know of any other matters to be brought before the Annual Meeting, except those set forth in the notice. If other business is properly presented for consideration at the Annual Meeting, it is intended that the proxies will be voted by the persons named therein in accordance with their judgment on such matters.

Shareholder Proposals for the 2016 Annual Meeting

To be considered for inclusion in next year’s proxy statement, shareholder proposals submitted in accordance with the SEC’s rules must be received by our Corporate Secretary no later than the close of business on November 11, 2015, 120 days before the one-year anniversary of the mailing date.

If you wish to bring a matter before a general meeting outside the process described above, you may do so by following the procedures set forth in the Company’s Memorandum and Articles of Association and the Companies (Jersey) Law 1991, as amended.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

The rules of the SEC require our directors, executive officers and holders of more than ten percent (10%) of our common stock to file reports of stock ownership and changes in ownership with the SEC. Based on the Section 16 reports filed by our directors and executive officers, and written representations of our directors and executive officers, we believe there were no late filings for transactions occurring during 2014.

Householding

Only one copy of each of our Annual Report to Shareholders and this Proxy Statement have been sent to multiple shareholders who share the same address and last name, unless we have received contrary instructions from one or

more of those shareholders. This procedure is referred to as “householding.” We have been notified that certain intermediaries (brokers or banks) will also household proxy materials. We will deliver promptly, upon oral or written request, separate copies of the Annual Report and Proxy Statement to any shareholder at the same address. If you wish to receive separate copies of one or both of these documents, or if you do not wish to participate in householding in the future, you may write to our Corporate Secretary at Delphi Automotive PLC, c/o Delphi Automotive Systems, LLC, 5725 Delphi Drive, Troy, Michigan 48098, or call (248) 813-2000. You may contact your broker or bank to make a similar request. Shareholders sharing an address who now receive multiple copies of our Annual Report and Proxy Statement may request delivery of a single copy of each document by writing or calling us at the address or telephone number above or by contacting their broker or bank (provided the broker or bank has determined to household proxy materials).

Record Date

Shareholders owning Delphi ordinary shares at the close of business on February 23, 2015 (the record date) may vote at the 2015 Annual Meeting. On that date, 291,103,250 ordinary shares were outstanding. Each Ordinary Share is entitled to one vote on each matter to be voted upon at the Annual Meeting.

Voting prior to the Annual Meeting

If you are a shareholder of record, you may vote by proxy in any of the following ways:

By Internet or Telephone — If you have Internet or telephone access, you may authorize the submission of a proxy on your behalf by following the voting instructions in the materials you receive. If you vote by Internet or telephone, you should not return your proxy card.

By Mail — You may vote by mail by completing, dating and signing your proxy card and mailing it in the envelope provided. You must sign your name exactly as it appears on the proxy card. If you are signing in a representative capacity (for example, as officer of a corporation, guardian, executor, trustee or custodian), you must indicate your name and title or capacity.

If you vote over the Internet or by telephone, your vote must be received by 1:00 a.m., Central Time, on April 21, 2015.

DELPHI AUTOMOTIVE PLC 59

2015 NOTICE OF MEETING AND PROXY STATEMENT

Other Information (continued)

If your shares are held in a stock brokerage account or by a bank or other holder of record, you are considered the beneficial owner of shares held in “street name.” The street name holder will provide you with instructions that you must follow in order to have your shares voted.

Changing Your Vote before the Annual Meeting

If you are a shareholder of record, you may revoke your proxy before it is exercised by:

•

Written notice to the Corporate Secretary of the Company, c/o Delphi Automotive Systems, LLC, 5725 Delphi Drive, Troy, Michigan 48098;

•

Timely delivery of a valid, later-dated proxy or later-dated vote by Internet or telephone; or

•

Voting in person at the Annual Meeting.

If you are a beneficial owner of shares held in street name, you may submit new voting instructions by contacting your brokerage firm, bank or other holder of record.

Voting at the Annual Meeting

If you are a shareholder of record, you may also vote in person at the Annual Meeting or you may be represented by another person at the Annual Meeting by executing a proxy designating that person.

If you hold your shares in street name and you wish to vote in person at the Annual Meeting, you must obtain a proxy issued in your name from the street name holder.

Quorum for the Annual Meeting

A quorum will consist of one or more shareholders present in person or by proxy who hold or represent shares of not less than a majority of the total voting rights of all of the shareholders entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting.

Voting Tabulation

To be approved, Resolutions 1 to 14 require a simple majority of the votes cast at the Annual Meeting in favor of each Resolution, assuming a quorum has been met. If a director does not receive a majority of the votes cast for his election, then that director will not be elected to the Board, and the Board may fill the vacancy with a different person, or the Board may reduce the number of directors to eliminate the vacancy. A simple majority of the votes cast is also required for Resolution 15 to be considered approved, assuming a quorum has been met; however, the vote is advisory and is not binding on our Board or the Company. Abstentions are not counted as votes cast.

Broker Non-Votes

A broker non-vote occurs when the broker that holds your shares in street name is not entitled to vote on a matter without instruction from you and you do not give any instruction. Unless instructed otherwise by you, brokers will not have discretionary authority to vote on any matter other than Resolution 12, which is considered to be “routine” for these purposes. It is important that you cast your vote for your shares to be represented on all matters.

Attending the Annual Meeting

If you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, you must present proof that you own Delphi shares to be admitted.

Record Shareholders. If you are a record shareholder (a person who owns shares registered directly in his or her name with Computershare, Delphi’s transfer agent) and plan to attend the Annual Meeting, please indicate this when voting, either by marking the attendance box on the proxy card or responding affirmatively when prompted during telephone or Internet voting.

Owners of Shares Held in Street Name. Beneficial owners of Delphi ordinary shares held in street name by a broker, bank or other nominee will need proof of ownership to be admitted to the Annual Meeting. A recent brokerage statement or letters from the broker, bank or other nominee are examples of proof of ownership. If your shares are held in street name and you want to vote in person at the Annual Meeting, you must obtain a written proxy from the broker, bank or other nominee holding your shares.

Accessing Proxy Materials on the Internet

This Proxy Statement and our 2014 Annual Report on Form 10-K are available at www.delphi.com.

If you received a printed copy of our proxy materials, you may choose to receive future proxy materials by email.

Section 7. Restricted Stock and RSUs.

(b) Shares of Restricted Stock and RSUs shall be subject to such restrictions as the Committee may impose (including any limitation on the right to vote a Share of Restricted Stock or the right to receive any dividend, dividend equivalent or other right), which restrictions may lapse separately or in combination at such time or times, in such installments or otherwise, as the Committee may deem appropriate. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if the Award relates to Shares on which dividends are declared during the period that the Award is outstanding, the Award shall not provide for the payment of such dividend (or a dividend equivalent) to the Participant prior to the time at which such Award, or applicable portion thereof, becomes nonforfeitable, unless otherwise provided in the applicable Award Document.

(d) If and to the extent that the Committee intends that an Award granted under this Section 7 shall constitute or give rise to Section 162(m) Compensation, such Award may be structured in accordance with the requirements of Section 8, including the performance criteria and the Award limitation set forth therein, and any such Award shall be considered a Performance Award for purposes of the Plan.

(e) The Committee may provide in an Award Document that an Award of Restricted Stock is conditioned upon the Participant making or refraining from making an election with respect to the Award under Section 83(b) of the Code. If a Participant makes an election pursuant to Section 83(b) of the Code with respect to an Award of Restricted Stock, the Participant shall be required to file promptly a copy of such election with the Company and the Internal Revenue Service.

Section 8. Performance Awards. The Committee is authorized to grant Performance Awards to Participants with the following terms and conditions and with such additional terms and conditions, in either case not inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan, as the Committee shall determine.

(a) Performance Awards may be denominated as a cash amount, a number of Shares or a combination thereof and are Awards which may be earned upon achievement or satisfaction of performance conditions specified by the Committee. In addition, the Committee may specify that any other Award shall constitute a Performance Award by conditioning the right of a Participant to exercise the Award or have it settled, and the timing thereof, upon achievement or satisfaction of such performance conditions as may be specified by the Committee. The Committee may use such business criteria and other measures of performance as it may deem appropriate in establishing any performance conditions. Subject to the terms of the Plan, the performance goals to be achieved during any Performance Period, the length of any Performance Period, the amount of any Performance Award granted and the amount of any payment or transfer to be made pursuant to any Performance Award shall be determined by the

Appendix B (continued)

Committee. If the Performance Award relates to Shares on which dividends are declared during the Performance Period, the Performance Award shall not provide for the payment of such dividend (or dividend equivalent) to the Participant prior to the time at which such Performance Award, or the applicable portion thereof, is earned.

(b) Every Performance Award shall, if the Committee intends that such Award should constitute Section 162(m) Compensation, include a pre-established formula, such that payment, retention or vesting of the Award is subject to the achievement during a Performance Period or Performance Periods, as determined by the Committee, of a level or levels of, or increases in, in each case as determined by the Committee, one or more of the following performance measures with respect to the Company: market capitalization, stock price, value appreciation, total shareholder return, revenue, sales, bookings, unit volume, production, pre-tax income, earnings, earnings per share, net income, operating income, EBIT (earnings before interest and taxes), EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization), operating or profit margin, cost structure, restructuring, expense control, overhead costs, general and administration expense, economic value added, net capital employed, net asset value, reserve value, market share, customer satisfaction or service quality, capacity utilization, reserve replacement, increase in customer base, customer diversification, cash flow, cash from operations, debt leverage, debt to equity ratio, return on assets or RONA, return on equity, return on capital, assets levels, asset turnover, inventory turnover, environmental health and safety, diversity, productivity, risk mitigation, corporate compliance, employee retention or engagement, and goals relating to acquisitions or divestitures. Performance criteria may be measured on an absolute (e.g., plan or budget) or relative basis, and may be established on a corporate-wide basis or with respect to one or more business units, divisions, subsidiaries or business segments. Relative performance may be measured against a group of peer companies, a financial market index or other acceptable objective and quantifiable indices. Except in the case of an Award intended to qualify as Section 162(m) Compensation, if the Committee determines that a change in the business, operations, corporate structure or capital structure of the Company, or the manner in which the Company conducts its business, or other events or circumstances render the performance objectives unsuitable, the Committee may modify the minimum acceptable level of achievement, in whole or in part, as the Committee deems appropriate and equitable. Performance objectives shall be adjusted for material items not originally contemplated in establishing the performance target for items resulting from discontinued operations, extra-

ordinary gains and losses, the effect of changes in accounting standards or principles, acquisitions or divestitures, changes in tax rules or regulations, capital transactions, restructuring, nonrecurring gains or losses or unusual items. Performance measures may vary from Performance Award to Performance Award, and from Participant to Participant, and may be established on a stand-alone basis, in tandem or in the alternative. The Committee shall have the power to impose such other restrictions on Awards subject to this Section 8(b) as it may deem necessary or appropriate to ensure that such Awards satisfy all requirements for Section 162(m) Compensation or requirements of any applicable law, stock market or exchange rules and regulations or accounting or tax rules and regulations. The maximum amount of any Performance Award denominated in cash that is intended to constitute Section 162(m) Compensation that may be earned in any calendar year shall not exceed $12,000,000.

(c) Settlement of Performance Awards; Other Terms. Settlement of Performance Awards shall be in cash, Shares, other Awards, other property, net settlement or any combination thereof, as determined in the discretion of the Committee. Performance Awards will be settled only after the end of the relevant Performance Period. The Committee may, in its discretion, increase or reduce the amount of a settlement otherwise to be made in connection with a Performance Award but may not exercise discretion to increase any amount payable to a Covered Employee in respect of a Performance Award intended to qualify as Section 162(m) Compensation. Any settlement that changes the form of payment from that originally specified shall be implemented in a manner such that the Performance Award and other related Awards do not, solely for that reason, fail to qualify as Section 162(m) Compensation.

Section 9. Other Share-Based Awards. The Committee is authorized, subject to limitations under applicable law, to grant to Participants such other Awards that may be denominated or payable in, valued in whole or in part by reference to, or otherwise based on, or related to, Shares or factors that may influence the value of Shares, including convertible or exchangeable debt securities, other rights convertible or exchangeable into Shares, acquisition rights for Shares, Awards with value and payment contingent upon performance of the Company or business units thereof or any other factors designated by the Committee. The Committee shall determine the terms and conditions of such Awards. Shares delivered pursuant to an Award in the nature of an acquisition right granted under this Section 9 shall be acquired for such consideration, paid for at such times, by such methods and in such forms, including cash, Shares, other Awards, other property, net settlement (including broker-assisted cashless

exercise) or any combination thereof, as the Committee shall determine; provided that the acquisition price therefor shall not be less than the Fair Market Value of such Shares on the date of grant of such right.

Section 10. Minimum Vesting. Notwithstanding any provisions of this Plan to the contrary and except as provided in this Section 10 or pursuant to Section 11, Awards (other than Replacement Awards) that are granted after April 23, 2015 shall not vest in full prior to the one-year anniversary of the applicable grant date; provided, however, that no more than five percent (5%) of the Shares available for issuance under the Plan as of April 23, 2015 may be granted subject to Awards with such other vesting requirements, if any, as the Committee may establish in its sole discretion (which number of Shares shall not include any Shares subject to Awards granted pursuant to Section 8).

Section 11. Effect of Termination of Service or a Change in Control on Awards.

(a) The Committee may provide, by rule or regulation or in any Award Document, or may determine in any individual case, the circumstances in which, and the extent to which, an Award may be exercised, settled, vested, paid or forfeited in the event of a Participant’s Termination of Service prior to the end of a Performance Period or the vesting, exercise or settlement of such Award.

(b) The Committee may set forth the treatment of an Award upon a Change in Control in the applicable Award Document.

(c) In the case of an Option or SAR Award, except as otherwise provided in the applicable Award Document, upon a Change in Control, a merger or consolidation involving the Company or any other event with respect to which the Committee deems it appropriate, the Committee may cause such Award to be canceled in consideration of (i) the full acceleration of such Award and either (A) a period of at least 10 days prior to such Change in Control, merger, consolidation or other event to exercise the Award or (B) a payment in cash or other consideration to the Participant who holds such Award in an amount equal to the Intrinsic Value of such Award (which may be equal to but not less than zero), which, if in excess of zero, shall be payable upon the effective date of such Change in Control, merger, consolidation or other event or (ii) a substitute award (which immediately upon grant shall have an Intrinsic Value equal to the Intrinsic Value of such Award and shall include terms and conditions not less favorable to the Participant than the terms and conditions of such Award).

Section 12. General Provisions Applicable to Awards.

(a) Awards shall be granted for no cash consideration or for such minimal cash consideration as may be required by applicable law.

(b) Awards may, in the discretion of the Committee, be granted either alone or in addition to or in tandem with any other Award or any award granted under any other plan of the Company. Awards granted in addition to or in tandem with other Awards, or in addition to or in tandem with awards granted under any other plan of the Company, may be granted either at the same time as or at a different time from the grant of such other Awards or awards.

(c) Subject to the terms of the Plan and Section 18, payments or transfers to be made by the Company upon the grant, exercise or settlement of an Award may be made in the form of cash, Shares, other Awards, other property, net settlement or any combination thereof, as determined by the Committee in its discretion, and may be made in a single payment or transfer, in installments or on a deferred basis, in each case in accordance with rules and procedures established by the Committee. Such rules and procedures may include provisions for the payment or crediting of reasonable interest on installment or deferred payments or the grant or crediting of dividend equivalents in respect of installment or deferred payments.

(d) Except as may be permitted by the Committee or as specifically provided in an Award Document, (i) no Award and no right under any Award shall be assignable, alienable, saleable or transferable by a Participant otherwise than by will or pursuant to Section 12(e) and (ii) during a Participant’s lifetime, each Award, and each right under any Award, shall be exercisable only by the Participant or, if permissible under applicable law, by the Participant’s guardian or legal representative; provided, however, that the Committee shall not permit, and an Award Document shall not provide for, any Award to be transferred or transferable to a third party for value or consideration without the approval of the Company’s shareholders. The provisions of this Section 12(d) shall not apply to any Award that has been fully exercised or settled, as the case may be, and shall not preclude forfeiture of an Award in accordance with the terms thereof.

(e) A Participant may designate a Beneficiary or change a previous Beneficiary designation at such times prescribed by the Committee by using forms and following procedures approved or accepted by the Committee for that purpose.

(f) All certificates for Shares and/or other securities delivered under the Plan pursuant to any Award or the

DELPHI AUTOMOTIVE PLC B-5

2015 NOTICE OF MEETING AND PROXY STATEMENT

Appendix B (continued)

exercise thereof shall be subject to such stop transfer orders and other restrictions as the Committee may deem advisable under the Plan or the rules, regulations and other requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission, any stock market or exchange upon which such Shares or other securities are then quoted, traded or listed, and any applicable securities laws, and the Committee may cause a legend or legends to be put on any such certificates to make appropriate reference to such restrictions.

(g) Without limiting the generality of Section 12(h), the Committee may impose restrictions on any Award with respect to noncompetition, confidentiality and other restrictive covenants, or requirements to comply with minimum stock ownership requirements, as it deems necessary or appropriate in its sole discretion.

(h) The Committee may specify in an Award Document that the Participant’s rights, payments and benefits with respect to an Award shall be subject to reduction, cancellation, forfeiture or recoupment upon the occurrence of certain specified events, in addition to any otherwise applicable vesting or performance conditions of an Award. Such events may include a Termination of Service with or without Cause (and, in the case of any Cause that is resulting from an indictment or other non-final determination, the Committee may provide for such Award to be held in escrow or abeyance until a final resolution of the matters related to such event occurs, at which time the Award shall either be reduced, cancelled or forfeited (as provided in such Award Document) or remain in effect, depending on the outcome), violation of material policies, breach of noncompetition, confidentiality or other restrictive covenants that may apply to the Participant, or other conduct by the Participant that is detrimental to the business or reputation of the Company and/or its Affiliates.

(i) If the Company is required to prepare an accounting restatement due to the material noncompliance of the Company, as a result of misconduct, with any financial reporting requirement under the securities laws, and if the Participant knowingly or grossly negligently engaged in the misconduct, or knowingly or grossly negligently failed to prevent the misconduct, or if the Participant is one of the individuals subject to automatic forfeiture under Section 304 of the United States Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (and not otherwise exempted), the Participant shall reimburse the Company the amount of any payment in settlement of any Award earned or accrued during the 12-month period following the first public issuance or filing with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (whichever first occurred) of the financial document not in compliance with such financial reporting requirement. Rights, payments and benefits under any Award

shall be subject to repayment to or recoupment (clawback) by the Company in accordance with such policies and procedures as the Committee or Board may adopt from time to time, including policies and procedures to implement applicable law, stock market or exchange rules and regulations or accounting or tax rules and regulations.

Section 13. Amendments and Termination.

(a) Except to the extent prohibited by applicable law and unless otherwise expressly provided in an Award Document or in the Plan, the Board may amend, alter, suspend, discontinue or terminate the Plan or any portion thereof at any time; provided, however, that no such amendment, alteration, suspension, discontinuation or termination shall be made without (i) shareholder approval, if such approval is required by applicable law or the rules of the stock market or exchange, if any, on which the Shares are principally quoted or traded or (ii) the consent of the affected Participant, if such action would materially adversely affect the rights of such Participant under any outstanding Award, except to the extent any such amendment, alteration, suspension, discontinuance or termination is made to cause the Plan to comply with applicable law, stock market or exchange rules and regulations or accounting or tax rules and regulations, or to impose any recoupment provisions on any Awards in accordance with Section 12(i). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan, the Committee may amend the Plan in such manner as may be necessary to enable the Plan to achieve its stated purposes in any jurisdiction in a tax-efficient manner and in compliance with local laws, rules and regulations.

(b) The Committee may waive any conditions or rights under, amend any terms of, or amend, alter, suspend, discontinue or terminate any Award theretofore granted, prospectively or retroactively, without the consent of any relevant Participant or holder or Beneficiary of an Award; provided, however, that, subject to Sections 4(c) and 11(c), no such action shall materially adversely affect the rights of any affected Participant or holder or Beneficiary under any Award theretofore granted under the Plan, except to the extent any such action is made to cause the Plan to comply with applicable law, stock market or exchange rules and regulations or accounting or tax rules and regulations, or to impose any recoupment provisions on any Awards in accordance with Section 12(i); provided further that, except as provided in Section 4(c), the Committee shall not without the approval of the Company’s shareholders (a) lower the exercise price per Share of an Option or SAR after it is granted or take any other action that would be treated as a repricing of such Award under the rules of the principal stock market or exchange on which the Company’s Shares are quoted or traded, or

2015 NOTICE OF MEETING AND PROXY STATEMENT

Appendix B (continued)

(b) cancel an Option or SAR when the exercise price per Share exceeds the Fair Market Value in exchange for cash or another Award (other than in connection with a Change in Control); and provided further, that the Committee’s authority under this Section 13(b) is limited by the provisions of Section 12(d) and, in the case of Awards subject to Section 8(b), as provided in Section 8(b).

(c) Except as provided in Section 8(b), the Committee shall be authorized to make adjustments in the terms and conditions of, and the criteria included in, Awards in recognition of events (including the events described in Section 4(c)) affecting the Company, or the financial statements of the Company, or of changes in applicable law, stock market or exchange rules and regulations or accounting or tax rules and regulations, whenever the Committee determines that such adjustments are appropriate in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under the Plan.

(d) The Committee may correct any defect, supply any omission or reconcile any inconsistency in the Plan or any Award in the manner and to the extent it shall deem desirable to carry the Plan into effect.

Section 14. Prohibition on Option and SAR Repricing. Except as provided in Section 4(c), the Committee may not, without prior approval of the Company’s shareholders, seek to effect any re-pricing of any previously granted “underwater” Option or SAR by: (i) amending or modifying the terms of the Option or SAR to lower the exercise price; (ii) cancelling the underwater Option or SAR and granting either (A) replacement Options or SARs having a lower exercise price or (B) Restricted Stock, RSU, Performance Award or Other Stock-Based Award in exchange; or (iii) cancelling or repurchasing the underwater Options or SARs for cash or other securities. An Option or SAR will be deemed to be “underwater” at any time when the Fair Market Value of the Shares covered by such Award is less than the exercise price of the Award.

Section 15. Miscellaneous.

(a) No employee, Participant or other person shall have any claim to be granted any Award under the Plan, and there is no obligation for uniformity of treatment of employees, Participants or holders or Beneficiaries of Awards under the Plan. The terms and conditions of Awards need not be the same with respect to each recipient. Any Award granted under the Plan shall be a one-time Award that does not constitute a promise of future grants. The Company, in its sole discretion, maintains the right to make available future grants under the Plan.

(b) The grant of an Award shall not be construed as giving a Participant the right to be retained in the employ of, or to continue to provide services to, the Company or any Affiliate. Further, the Company or the applicable Affiliate may at any time dismiss a Participant, free from any liability, or any claim under the Plan, unless otherwise expressly provided in the Plan or in any Award Document or in any other agreement binding the parties. The receipt of any Award under the Plan is not intended to confer any rights on the receiving Participant except as set forth in the applicable Award Document.

(c) Nothing contained in the Plan shall prevent the Company from adopting or continuing in effect other or additional compensation arrangements, and such arrangements may be either generally applicable or applicable only in specific cases.

(d) The Company shall be authorized to withhold from any Award granted or any payment due or transfer made under any Award or under the Plan or from any compensation or other amount owing to a Participant the amount (in cash, Shares, other Awards, other property, net settlement or any combination thereof) of applicable withholding taxes due in respect of an Award, its exercise or settlement or any payment or transfer under such Award or under the Plan and to take such other action (including providing for elective payment of such amounts in cash or Shares by the Participant) as may be necessary in the opinion of the Company to satisfy all obligations for the payment of such taxes.

(e) If any provision of the Plan or any Award Document is or becomes or is deemed to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, or as to any person or Award, or would disqualify the Plan or any Award under any law deemed applicable by the Committee, such provision shall be construed or deemed amended to conform to applicable laws, or if it cannot be so construed or deemed amended without, in the determination of the Committee, materially altering the intent of the Plan or the Award Document, such provision shall be stricken as to such jurisdiction, person or Award, and the remainder of the Plan and any such Award Document shall remain in full force and effect.

(f) Neither the Plan nor any Award shall create or be construed to create a trust or separate fund of any kind or a fiduciary relationship between the Company and a Participant or any other person. To the extent that any person acquires a right to receive payments from the Company pursuant to an Award, such right shall be no greater than the right of any unsecured general creditor of the Company.

(g) No fractional Shares shall be issued or delivered pursuant to the Plan or any Award, and the Committee shall

DELPHI AUTOMOTIVE PLC B-7

2015 NOTICE OF MEETING AND PROXY STATEMENT

Appendix B (continued)

determine whether cash or other securities shall be paid or transferred in lieu of any fractional Shares, or whether such fractional Shares or any rights thereto shall be canceled, terminated or otherwise eliminated.

(h) Awards may be granted to Participants who are non-United States nationals or employed or providing services outside the United States, or both, on such terms and conditions different from those applicable to Awards to Participants who are employed or providing services in the United States as may, in the judgment of the Committee, be necessary or desirable to recognize differences in local law, tax policy or custom. The Committee also may impose conditions on the exercise or vesting of Awards in order to minimize the Company’s obligation with respect to tax equalization for Participants on assignments outside their home country.

(i) The Company shall take responsibility for the information set out in the Plan.

Section 16. Effective Date of the Plan. The Plan was originally effective as of November 14, 2011, but was amended and restated effective as of April 23, 2015.

Section 17. Term of the Plan. No Award shall be granted under the Plan after the earliest to occur of (i) April 23, 2025; provided that to the extent permitted by the listing rules of any stock exchanges on which the Company is listed, such 10-year term may be extended indefinitely so long as the maximum number of Shares available for issuance under the Plan have not been issued, (ii) the maximum number of Shares available for issuance under the Plan have been issued or (iii) the Board terminates the Plan in accordance with Section 13(a). However, unless otherwise expressly provided in the Plan or in an applicable Award Document, any Award theretofore granted may extend beyond such date, and the authority of the Committee to amend, alter, adjust, suspend, discontinue or terminate any such Award, or to waive any conditions or rights under any such Award, and the authority of the Board to amend the Plan, shall extend beyond such date.

Section 18. Section 409A of the Code. With respect to Awards subject to Section 409A of the Code, the Plan is intended to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, and the provisions of the Plan and any Award Document shall be interpreted in a manner that satisfies the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, and the Plan shall be operated accordingly. If any provision of the Plan or any term or condition of any Award would otherwise frustrate or conflict with this intent, the provision, term or condition will be interpreted and deemed amended so as to avoid this conflict.

If an amount payable under an Award as a result of the Participant’s Termination of Service (other than due to death) occurring while the Participant is a “specified employee” under Section 409A of the Code constitutes a deferral of compensation subject to Section 409A of the Code, then payment of such amount shall not occur until six months and one day after the date of the Participant’s Termination of Service, except as permitted under Section 409A of the Code. If the Award includes a “series of installment payments” (within the meaning of Section 1.409A-2(b)(2)(iii) of the Treasury Regulations), the Participant’s right to the series of installment payments shall be treated as a right to a series of separate payments and not as a right to a single payment, and if the Award includes “dividend equivalents” (within the meaning of Section 1.409A-3(e) of the Treasury Regulations), the Participant’s right to the dividend equivalents shall be treated separately from the right to other amounts under the Award. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the tax treatment of the benefits provided under the Plan or any Award Document is not warranted or guaranteed, and in no event shall the Company be liable for all or any portion of any taxes, penalties, interest or other expenses that may be incurred by the Participant on account of non-compliance with Section 409A of the Code.

Section 19. Data Protection. By participating in the Plan, the Participant consents to the holding and processing of personal information provided by the Participant to the Company or any Affiliate, trustee or third party service provider, for all purposes relating to the operation of the Plan. These include, but are not limited to:

(i) administering and maintaining Participant records;

(ii) providing information to the Company, Affiliates, trustees of any employee benefit trust, registrars, brokers or third party administrators of the Plan;

(iii) providing information to future purchasers or merger partners of the Company or any Affiliate, or the business in which the Participant works; and

(iv) transferring information about the Participant to any country or territory that may not provide the same protection for the information as the Participant’s home country.

Section 20. Governing Law. The Plan and each Award Document shall be governed by the laws of the state of New York, without application of the conflicts of law principles thereof.

(iii) in the case of a Participant who is a consultant or other advisor, the effective date of the cessation of the performance of services for the Company or an Affiliate;

provided, however, that in the case of an employee, the transfer of employment from the Company to an Affiliate, from an Affiliate to the Company, from one Affiliate to another Affiliate or, unless the Committee determines otherwise, the cessation of employee status but the continuation of the performance of services for the Company or an Affiliate as a member of the

Board or a consultant or other advisor shall not be deemed a cessation of service that would constitute a Termination of Service; and provided further, that a Termination of Service will be deemed to occur for a Participant employed by an Affiliate when an Affiliate ceases to be an Affiliate, unless such Participant’s employment continues with the Company or another Affiliate.

APPENDIX C

DELPHI AUTOMOTIVE PLC LEADERSHIP INCENTIVE PLAN

The purpose of this Delphi Leadership Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) is to enhance the Company’s ability to attract and retain highly qualified executives, to provide additional financial incentives to such executives and to promote the success of the Company and its subsidiaries through awards of incentive compensation that satisfy the requirements for performance-based compensation under Section 162(m) of the Code.

1. Administration of the Plan.

(a) The Plan shall be administered by the Committee. The Committee shall be appointed by the Board and shall consist of not less than three directors of the Board. To the extent necessary to comply with applicable regulatory regimes, any action by the Committee shall require the approval of Committee members who are (i) independent, within the meaning of and to the extent required by applicable rulings and interpretations of the principal stock market or exchange on which the Shares are quoted or traded; (ii) each a non-employee director within the meaning of Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act; and (iii) each an outside director within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code. The Board may designate one or more directors as a subcommittee who may act for the Committee if necessary to satisfy the requirements of this Section. The Committee may issue rules and regulations for administration of the Plan.

(b) Subject to the terms of the Plan and applicable law, the Committee shall have full power and authority to: (i) designate Participants; (ii) determine the amount of any Incentive Amount; (iii) determine whether, to what extent and under what circumstances Incentive Amounts may be settled or exercised in cash, Shares, other awards, other property, net settlement or any combination thereof, or canceled, forfeited or suspended, and the method or methods by which Incentive Amounts may be settled, exercised, canceled, forfeited or suspended; (iv) determine whether, to what extent and under what circumstances cash, Shares, other awards, other property and other amounts payable with respect to an Incentive Amount under the Plan shall be deferred either automatically or at the election of the holder thereof or of the Committee; (v) interpret and administer the Plan and any instrument or agreement relating to, or Incentive Amount made under, the Plan; (vi) establish, amend, suspend or waive such rules and regulations and appoint such agents as it shall deem appropriate for the proper administration of the Plan; and (vii) make

any other determination and take any other action that the Committee deems necessary or desirable for the administration of the Plan. Such authority shall include the right to exercise discretion to reduce, at any time prior to the payment thereof, the Incentive Amount payable to any Participant to any amount, including zero, that is below the Formula Amount; provided, however, that the exercise of such discretion with respect to any Participant shall not have the effect of increasing the Incentive Amount payable to any other Participant.

(c) All decisions of the Committee shall be final, conclusive and binding upon all parties, including the Company, its shareholders and Participants and any beneficiaries thereof.

2. Participation and Performance Goals. Not later than the Applicable Deadline with respect to a Performance Period, the Committee shall (a) designate the Eligible Executives who are Participants in the Plan for such Performance Period, and (b) affirm, in writing, the formula governing each such Participant’s Formula Amount for such Performance Period. The “Applicable Deadline” shall mean the 90th day of the Performance Period (or such other time as may be required or permitted by Section 162(m) of the Code); provided, however, that in the event that the Committee determines that an individual is eligible for the Plan after the end of such deadline because of commencement of employment or promotion resulting in the individual’s becoming an Eligible Executive during the Performance Period, the Applicable Deadline shall mean 30 days following such determination (or, if earlier, prior to the expiration of 25% of the Performance Period to which such amount will relate).

3. Adjustment for Extraordinary Items. The Committee shall adjust, to the extent permitted by Section 162(m) of the Code, the level of Net Income for material items not originally contemplated in establishing the performance target for items resulting from discontinued operations, extraordinary gains and losses, the effect of changes in accounting standards or principles, acquisitions or divestitures, changes in tax rules or regulations, capital transactions, restructuring, nonrecurring gains or losses or any other unusual items that are separately identified and quantified in the Company’s audited financial statements. In all events, any adjustments to Net Income shall be made in a manner intended to satisfy the requirements of Section 162(m) of the Code.

4. Committee Certification. As soon as reasonably practicable after the end of each Performance Period, but in no event later than March 15 following the end of such

DELPHI AUTOMOTIVE PLC C-1

2015 NOTICE OF MEETING AND PROXY STATEMENT

Appendix C (continued)

Performance Period, the Committee shall certify, in writing, the level of Net Income achieved for such Performance Period and the dollar amount of the Formula Amount for each Participant in the Plan for such Performance Period.

5. Determination of Incentive Amount. At any time before an Incentive Amount for a Performance Period is paid, the Committee may, in its sole discretion and taking into consideration such factors as it deems appropriate (which may include the degree to which objective and subjective performance goals and other criteria have been attained for such Performance Period), determine to pay a Participant an Incentive Amount that is less than the Formula Amount, or to pay no Incentive Amount. The amount by which any Formula Amount is reduced shall not be paid to any other Participant.

6. Payment of Incentive Amount. An Incentive Amount shall be paid in cash, unrestricted or restricted Shares (which may be provided under a shareholder-approved equity plan of the Company, subject to the terms and conditions of such plan), or a combination of the foregoing. The payment of an Incentive Amount shall be made at such time as the Committee determines in its sole discretion, which shall in no event be later than March 15 following the Performance Period to which such Incentive Amount relates unless the Committee, in its sole discretion, provides for the deferral of an Incentive Amount under a nonqualified deferred compensation plan or program maintained by the Company, subject to the terms and conditions of such plan or program.

7. AIP Awards. Notwithstanding any provision of the AIP, any Incentive Amount paid to any Participant pursuant to an award under the AIP shall be subject to the limits established for such Participant in this Plan. Upon the Participant’s death or termination of employment or in the event of a Change in Control (as defined in the AIP), any awards held by Participants under the AIP shall be treated in accordance with Sections 6 and 7 of the AIP.

8. No Right to Incentive or Continued Employment.

(a) No employee, Participant or other person shall have any claim to be granted any Incentive Amount under the Plan, and there is no obligation for uniformity of treatment of employees, Participants or holders or beneficiaries of Incentive Amounts under the Plan. The terms and conditions of Incentive Amounts need not be the same with respect to each recipient. Any Incentive Amount granted under the Plan shall be a one-time award that does not constitute a promise of future grants. The Company, in its sole discretion, maintains the right to make available future grants under the Plan.

(b) The grant of an Incentive Amount shall not be construed as giving a Participant the right to be retained in the

employ of, or to continue to provide services to, the Company or any affiliate. Further, the Company or the applicable affiliate may at any time dismiss a Participant, free from any liability, or any claim under the Plan, unless otherwise expressly provided in the Plan or in any other agreement binding the parties. The receipt of any Incentive Amount under the Plan is not intended to confer any rights on the receiving Participant.

9. Withholding. The Company shall be authorized to withhold from any Incentive Amount granted or any payment due or transfer made under any Incentive Amount or under the Plan or from any compensation or other amount owing to a Participant the amount (in cash, Shares, other awards, other property, net settlement or any combination thereof) of applicable withholding taxes due in respect of an Incentive Amount, its exercise or settlement or any payment or transfer under such Incentive Amount or under the Plan and to take such other action (including providing for elective payment of such amounts in cash or Shares by the Participant) as may be necessary in the opinion of the Company to satisfy all obligations for the payment of such taxes.

10. Nontransferability. Except as may be permitted by the Committee, (a) no Incentive Amount and no right under any Incentive Amount shall be assignable, alienable, saleable or transferable by a Participant otherwise than by will and (b) during a Participant’s lifetime, each Incentive Amount, and each right under any Incentive Amount, shall be exercisable only by the Participant or, if permissible under applicable law, by the Participant’s guardian or legal representative; provided, however, that the Committee shall not permit any Incentive Amount to be transferred or transferable to a third party for value or consideration without the approval of the Company’s shareholders. The provisions of this Section 10 shall not apply to any Incentive Amount that has been fully exercised or settled, as the case may be, and shall not preclude forfeiture of an Incentive Amount in accordance with the terms thereof.

11. Unfunded Plan. Neither the Plan nor any Incentive Amount shall create or be construed to create a trust or separate fund of any kind or a fiduciary relationship between the Company and a Participant or any other person. To the extent that any person acquires a right to receive payments from the Company pursuant to an Incentive Amount, such right shall be no greater than the right of any unsecured general creditor of the Company.

12. Repayment/Forfeiture of Incentive Amount. If the Company is required to prepare an accounting restatement due to the material noncompliance of the Company, as a result of misconduct, with any financial reporting requirement under the securities laws, and if the Participant knowingly or grossly negligently engaged in the misconduct, or knowingly

C-2 DELPHI AUTOMOTIVE PLC

2015 NOTICE OF MEETING AND PROXY STATEMENT

Appendix C (continued)

or grossly negligently failed to prevent the misconduct, or if the Participant is one of the individuals subject to automatic forfeiture under Section 304 of the United States Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (and not otherwise exempted), the Participant shall reimburse the Company the amount of any payment of any Incentive Amount earned or accrued during the 12-month period following the first public issuance or filing with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (whichever first occurred) of the financial document not in compliance with such financial reporting requirement. Rights, payments and benefits under any Incentive Amount shall be subject to repayment to or recoupment (clawback) by the Company in accordance with such policies and procedures as the Committee or Board may adopt from time to time, including policies and procedures to implement applicable law, stock market or exchange rules and regulations or accounting or tax rules and regulations. To the extent such Incentive Amount was deferred under a nonqualified deferred compensation plan maintained by the Company rather than paid to the Participant, the amount deferred (and any earnings thereon) shall be forfeited.

13. Adoption, Amendment, Suspension and Termination of the Plan.

(a) Subject to the approval of the Plan by the Company’s shareholders, the Plan shall be effective January 1, 2015 and shall continue in effect until terminated as provided below. Upon such approval of the Plan by the Company’s shareholders, all Incentive Amounts awarded under the Plan on or after January 1, 2015 shall be fully effective as if the shareholders had approved the Plan on or before January 1, 2015.

(b) Except to the extent prohibited by applicable law, the Board may amend, alter, suspend, discontinue or terminate the Plan or any portion thereof at any time; provided, however, that no such amendment, alteration, suspension, discontinuation or termination shall be made without shareholder approval, if such approval is required by applicable law or the rules of the stock market or exchange, if any, on which the Shares are principally quoted or traded or the consent of the affected Participant, if such action would materially adversely affect the rights of such Participant under any outstanding Incentive Amount, except to the extent any such amendment, alteration, suspension, discontinuance or termination is made to cause the Plan to comply with applicable law, stock market or exchange rules and regulations or accounting or tax rules and regulations or to impose any recoupment provisions on any Incentive Amounts in accordance with Section 12. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan, the Committee may amend the Plan in such manner as may be necessary to enable the Plan to achieve its stated purposes in any jurisdiction in a tax-efficient manner

and in compliance with local laws, rules and regulations.

(c) The Committee may correct any defect, supply any omission or reconcile any inconsistency in the Plan or any Incentive Amount in the manner and to the extent it shall deem desirable to carry the Plan into effect.

14. Section 162(m). If any provision of this Plan would cause an Incentive Amount not to constitute “qualified performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m) of the Code, that provision shall be severed from, and shall be deemed not to be a part of, the Plan, but the other provisions hereof shall remain in full force and effect.

15. Section 409A. With respect to Incentive Amounts subject to Section 409A of the Code, the Plan is intended to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, and the provisions of the Plan shall be interpreted in a manner that satisfies the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, and the Plan shall be operated accordingly. If any provision of the Plan or any term or condition of any Incentive Amount would otherwise frustrate or conflict with this intent, the provision, term or condition will be interpreted and deemed amended so as to avoid this conflict. If an amount payable under an Incentive Amount as a result of the Participant’s termination of employment (other than due to death) occurring while the Participant is a “specified employee” under Section 409A of the Code constitutes a deferral of compensation subject to Section 409A of the Code, then payment of such amount shall not occur until six months and one day after the date of the Participant’s termination of employment, except as permitted under Section 409A of the Code. If an Incentive Amount includes a “series of installment payments” (within the meaning of Section 1.409A-2(b)(2)(iii) of the Treasury Regulations), the Participant’s right to the series of installment payments shall be treated as a right to a series of separate payments and not as a right to a single payment and if an Incentive Amount includes “dividend equivalents” (within the meaning of Section 1.409A-3(e) of the Treasury Regulations), the Participant’s right to the dividend equivalents shall be treated separately from the right to other amounts under the Incentive Amount. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the tax treatment of the benefits provided under the Plan is not warranted or guaranteed, and in no event shall the Company be liable for all or any portion of any taxes, penalties, interest or other expenses that may be incurred by the Participant on account of non-compliance with Section 409A of the Code.

16. Governing Law. The Plan shall be governed by the laws of the state of New York, without application of the conflicts of law principles thereof.
