H Partners Management, LLC (“H Partners” or “we”), one of the largest shareholders of Harley-Davidson, Inc. (NYSE: HOG) (“Harley-Davidson” or the “Company”), which beneficially owns approximately 9.1% of the outstanding shares of the Company, today issued a presentation highlighting the urgent need for leadership change at Harley-Davidson based on the role long-tenured incumbent directors – CEO and Chairman Jochen Zeitz, Presiding Director Thomas Linebarger and 29-year director Sara Levinson – have played in the Company’s shareholder value destruction, cultural depletion, and failure to hold management accountable for consistent underperformance. The presentation follows H Partners’ launch of its campaign to urge shareholders to hold Zeitz, Linebarger, and Levinson responsible by voting “WITHHOLD” on each at the Company’s 2025 Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the “Annual Meeting”) on May 14, 2025.
