(“Zanite”) and EVE UAM, LLC that was consummated on May 9, 2022 (the “business combination”), as applicable.

We are furnishing our proxy materials to stockholders of Eve Holding, Inc. in connection with the solicitation of proxies for use at the 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders of the Company (the “Annual Meeting”) to be held on Thursday, May 21, 2026, at 10:00 a.m., Eastern Time, online at https://www.cstproxy.com/eveholding/2026. This solicitation of proxies is made on behalf of our board of directors (the “Board”).

In accordance with the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), we are furnishing our proxy materials, including this proxy statement and our annual report, to our stockholders primarily via the Internet. On or about April 9, 2026, we began mailing to our stockholders a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials (the “Notice”) that contains instructions on how to access our proxy materials on the Internet. The Notice also contains instructions on how to vote via the Internet. Stockholders may request to receive all future proxy materials in printed form by mail or electronically by email by following the instructions contained in the Notice.

Important Notice Regarding the Availability of Proxy Materials for the
Annual Meeting to be Held on Thursday, May 21, 2026

This proxy statement and our 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K are available free of charge at https://www.cstproxy.com/eveholding/2026.

What Are You Voting On?

You will be asked to vote on the following proposals at the Annual Meeting:

1. Election of two Class I directors to serve for a three-year term of office expiring at the 2029 annual meeting of stockholders and until his successor is duly elected and qualified or until his earlier death, resignation, disqualification or removal;

2. Approval, on a non-binding advisory basis, of the compensation of the Company’s NEOs;

3. Selection, on a non-binding advisory basis, of the frequency with which the Company will hold future advisory votes on the compensation of the Company’s NEOs;

4. Ratification of the appointment of KPMG LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026; and

5. Any other matter that properly comes before the Annual Meeting.

Who Can Vote?

At the close of business on April 1, 2026 (the “Record Date”), there were 348,304,584 shares of our common stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Common Stock”), issued and outstanding. Only holders of record of our Common Stock as of the close of business on the Record Date are entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. Each share of Common Stock is entitled to one vote on each matter. In addition to holders of record of shares of Common Stock, beneficial owners of shares of Common Stock held in “street name” as of the Record Date can vote by following the instructions provided by your broker, bank, trust, or other street name holders.

Difference Between a Stockholder of Record and a “Street Name” Holder

If your shares are registered directly in your name, you are considered the stockholder of record with respect to those shares.

If your shares are held in a stock brokerage account or by a bank, trust or other nominee, then the broker, bank, trust or other nominee is considered to be the stockholder of record with respect to those shares. However, you are still considered to be the beneficial owner of those shares, and your shares are said to be held in “street name.” Street name holders generally cannot submit a proxy or vote their shares directly and must instead instruct the broker, bank, trust or other nominee how to vote their shares using the methods described below under the heading “Voting Your Shares.”

Quorum

The presence of a majority of the outstanding Common Stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote constitutes a quorum. A quorum is required in order to hold and conduct business at the Annual Meeting. Your shares are counted as present at the Annual Meeting if you are present in person at the virtual Annual Meeting or if you have properly submitted a proxy card online or by mail. However, abstentions and “broker non-votes” are counted as present for purposes of determining whether the quorum requirement is satisfied. Please see below under “Abstentions; Withhold Votes; Broker Non-Votes.”

Voting Your Shares

The Annual Meeting will be held entirely online. You may vote in person by attending the virtual Annual Meeting or by submitting a proxy. The method of voting by proxy differs (1) depending on whether you are viewing this proxy statement on the Internet or receiving a paper copy and (2) for shares held as a record holder and shares held in “street name.”

If you are a record holder, you may vote by submitting a proxy online by following the instructions on the website referred to in the proxy card and/or the Notice mailed to you.

Alternatively, if you received a paper copy of your proxy card, you may vote your shares by submitting a proxy online by following the instructions on the proxy card, or by completing, dating, and signing the proxy card that was included with this proxy statement and promptly returning it in the pre-addressed, postage-paid envelope provided to you.

If your shares are held in “street name,” your broker, bank or other holder of your shares will provide you with instructions that you must follow to have your shares voted.

Deadline for Submitting Your Proxy on the Internet

Internet voting will close at 11:59 p.m., Eastern Time, on May 20, 2026. Stockholders who submit a proxy through the Internet should be aware that they may incur costs to access the Internet, such as usage charges from Internet service providers and that these costs must be borne by the stockholder. Stockholders who submit a proxy by Internet need not return a proxy card or the voting instruction form forwarded by your broker, bank, trust, or other nominee by mail.

YOUR VOTE IS VERY IMPORTANT. Please submit your vote in advance even if you plan to attend the Annual Meeting.

Voting at the Annual Meeting

If you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, you may vote during the virtual meeting. Please note that if your shares are held in “street name” and you wish to vote during the meeting, you must obtain a proxy issued in your name from your broker, bank, or other holder of your shares. Even if you intend to attend the Annual Meeting, we encourage you to submit your proxy or voting instructions to vote your shares in advance of the Annual Meeting. Please see the important instructions and requirements below under “Attendance at the Annual Meeting.”

Changing Your Vote

As a stockholder of record, if you vote by proxy, you may revoke that proxy at any time before it is voted at the Annual Meeting. Stockholders of record may revoke a proxy prior to the Annual Meeting by (i) delivering a written notice of revocation to the attention of the Secretary, Eve Holding, Inc., at our principal executive office at 1400 General Aviation Drive, Melbourne, FL 32935, (ii) duly submitting a later-dated proxy over the Internet or by mail, or (iii) attending the virtual Annual Meeting and voting during the meeting. Attendance at the Annual Meeting will not, by itself, revoke a proxy.

If your shares are held in the name of a broker, bank, trust, or other nominee, you may change your voting instructions by following the instructions of your broker, bank, trust, or other nominee.

If You Receive More Than One Proxy Card

If you receive more than one proxy card, it means you hold shares that are registered in more than one account. To ensure that all of your shares are voted, sign and return each proxy card or, if you submit a proxy by the Internet, submit one proxy for each proxy card you receive.

How Your Shares Will Be Voted

Shares represented by proxies that are properly executed and returned, and not revoked, will be voted as specified. YOUR VOTE IS VERY IMPORTANT.

If You Do Not Specify How You Want Your Shares Voted

If you are the record holder of your shares and submit your proxy without specifying how your shares are to be voted, your shares will be voted as follows:

 FOR the election of each of the two nominees for Class I directors;

 FOR the approval, on a non-binding advisory basis, of the compensation of the Company’s NEOs;

 FOR the selection, on a non-binding advisory basis, of every three years as the frequency of the future advisory vote on the compensation of the Company’s NEOs; and

 FOR the ratification of the appointment of KPMG LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026.

In addition, the proxy holders named in the proxy are authorized to vote in their discretion on any other matters that may properly come before the Annual Meeting and at any postponement or adjournment thereof. The board of directors knows of no other items of business that will be presented for consideration at the Annual Meeting other than those described in this proxy statement.

Abstentions; Withhold Votes; Broker Non-Votes

An “abstention,” in the case of Proposals 2, 3 or 4, or a “vote withheld,” in the case of Proposal 1, represents a stockholder’s choice to decline to vote on a proposal. Abstentions and votes withheld will be counted as present and entitled to vote for purposes of determining a quorum. At the Annual Meeting, abstentions and, with respect to Proposal 1, votes withheld, will have no effect on Proposal 1 and Proposal 3 and will have the same effect as a vote “against” on Proposal 2 and Proposal 4.

A “broker non-vote” occurs when a nominee holding shares for a beneficial owner has not received voting instructions from the beneficial owner and does not have discretionary authority to vote the shares. Shares that constitute broker non-votes will be counted as present at the Annual Meeting for the purpose of determining a quorum, but will not be considered entitled to vote on the proposal in question. If you hold your shares in street name and do not provide voting instructions to your broker or other nominee, your shares will be considered to be broker non-votes and will not be voted on any proposal on which your broker or other nominee does not have discretionary authority to vote. While a broker is entitled to vote shares held for a beneficial owner on “routine” matters without instructions from the beneficial owner of those shares, absent instructions from the beneficial owner of such shares, a broker is not entitled to vote shares held for a beneficial owner on “non-routine” matters. Brokers generally have discretionary authority to vote on Proposal 4, and therefore we do not expect any broker non-votes on Proposal 4. Brokers do not have discretionary authority, however, to vote on Proposals 1, 2 or 3 and therefore broker non-votes are not deemed to be shares entitled to vote on and will have no effect on Proposals 1, 2 or 3.

Votes Required

The following table summarizes the voting requirements and the effects of broker non-votes and “withhold” votes or abstentions on each of the proposals to be voted on at the Annual Meeting:

	Proposals	Required Vote	Effect of Broker Non-Votes	Effect of Withhold Votes or Abstentions
1.	Election of Directors	Plurality of votes cast for each nominee	None	None
2.	Advisory Vote on the Compensation of NEOs	Majority of the shares present and entitled to vote thereon	None	Against
3.	Advisory Vote on the Frequency of Future Advisory Vote on the Compensation of NEOs	Greatest number of votes cast	None	None
4	Ratification of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm	Majority of the shares present and entitled to vote thereon	Not applicable	Against

Inspector of Election

All votes will be tabulated by the inspector of election appointed for the Annual Meeting, who will separately tabulate affirmative and negative votes, abstentions, and broker non-votes.

Solicitation of Proxies

We will bear the cost of soliciting proxies. Copies of solicitation materials will be furnished to banks, brokerage houses, fiduciaries and custodians holding shares of our Common Stock in their names that are beneficially owned by others to forward to those beneficial owners. We may reimburse persons representing beneficial owners for their costs of forwarding the solicitation materials to the beneficial owners. Original solicitation of proxies may be supplemented by telephone, facsimile, electronic mail or personal solicitation by our directors, officers or other employees. No additional compensation will be paid to our directors, officers, or other employees for such services.

Attendance at the Annual Meeting

You may attend the Annual Meeting, as well as vote and submit questions during the Annual Meeting, by visiting https://www.cstproxy.com/eveholding/2026. You will need your unique control number, which appears in the proxy card, Notice or voting instructions that accompanied the proxy materials. In the event that you do not have a control number, please contact your broker, bank, or other nominee as soon as possible so that you can be provided with a control number and gain access to the meeting.

PROPOSAL 1 – ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

Our board of directors currently consists of seven members. In accordance with our second amended and restated certificate of incorporation (“Certificate of Incorporation”), our board of directors is divided into three classes with staggered three-year terms. Only one class of directors is elected at each annual meeting of stockholders, with the other classes continuing for the remainder of their respective three-year terms. Our board of directors is designated as follows:

 The Class I directors are Sergio Pedreiro and Uallace Moreira Lima, and their terms will expire at the Annual Meeting;

 The Class II directors are Marion Clifton Blakey and Paul Eremenko, and their terms will expire at the 2027 annual meeting of stockholders; and

 The Class III directors are Luis Carlos Affonso, Michael Amalfitano and Gerard J. DeMuro, and their terms will expire at the 2028 annual meeting of stockholders.

At each annual meeting of stockholders, upon the expiration of the term of a class of directors, each director in the class, or the successor to each such director in the class, is elected to serve from the time of election and qualification until the third annual meeting following his or her election and until his or her successor is duly elected and qualified, in accordance with our Certificate of Incorporation. Any increase or decrease in the number of directors are distributed among the three classes so that, as nearly as possible, each class will consist of one-third of the directors.

Our board of directors is responsible for nominating director candidates for election by stockholders to the board and for filling vacancies arising between annual meetings. The board of directors is responsible for identifying, screening and recommending candidates to the board of directors for membership. When formulating its board membership recommendations, the board of directors also considers recommendations from stockholders and others as it deems appropriate.

The board of directors periodically reviews the criteria for membership on the board and the skills and characteristics required of board members. As set forth in our Corporate Governance Guidelines, among the qualifications considered in the selection of director candidates, the board considers, among others, experience, skills, expertise, personal and professional integrity, character, business judgment, time availability in light of other commitments, dedication, potential conflicts of interest and such other relevant factors that the board considers appropriate in the context of the needs of the board of directors. The board of directors evaluates director nominees in the same manner whether a stockholder or the board has recommended the candidate.

Class I Director Nominees for Election – Term Expiring 2029

The current term of the Class I directors will expire at the Annual Meeting. Our board of directors nominated each of Sergio Pedreiro and Uallace Moreira Lima for election at the Annual Meeting as a Class I director to hold office until the annual meeting of stockholders to be held in 2029 and until his successor is duly elected and qualified or until his earlier death, resignation, disqualification, or removal. The nominees have consented to serve a term as Class I directors if elected. Should any of the nominees become unable to serve for any reason prior to the Annual Meeting, subject to the terms of the Stockholders Agreement (as defined herein), the board of directors may designate a substitute nominee, in which event the persons named in the enclosed proxy will vote for the election of such substitute nominee. See “Certain Relationships and Related Person Transactions – Stockholders Agreement” for additional information regarding the Stockholders Agreement.

In 1995, after serving in different positions with increasing responsibilities, he became Embraer’s Vice President of Engineering and Chief Engineer at age 34. Since then, in different roles, he led the launch and development of all civilian – commercial and executive – Embraer new airplane platforms. As Engineering Vice President, he was in charge of the ERJ145 Regional Jet development and certification, which happened on time in 1996, and allowed for the company turnaround after privatization. Mr. Affonso also led the creation of the Program Management function at Embraer as currently constituted, which is today considered one of Embraer’s main competitive advantages. Consequently, in 1997 he became the first head of the newly created Program Management organization and was the reporting person for all such Program Directors. Mr. Affonso also served the E-Jets Program Vice President since its inception until entry into service in 2004 and 2005, strongly advancing Embraer’s position in the airline market. The EJets are the most successful Embraer product to date and one of the most successful commercial airplanes in aviation history. Mr. Affonso was President and CEO of Embraer Executive Jets from 2005 to 2011, in which he was responsible for developing the program as an independent business segment within Embraer, including by overseeing the development of business and product strategies, as well as marketing, sales and customer support initiatives for the segment. Embraer significantly expanded in this market under Mr. Affonso’s leadership, including the launch of six new products—Phenoms 100/300, Legacy 450/500/650 and Lineage 1000—creating a worldwide sales and service support network and increasing sales revenues from US$250 million to US$1.250 billion. From 2011 to 2017, Mr. Affonso served as Chief Operating Officer (COO) of Embraer’s Commercial Aviation business, leading current and future programs including market intelligence, customer support and services, as well as overseeing the final manufacturing assembly line and the development of the successful E-Jets Second Generation (E2) airplanes. During his tenure as COO of Commercial Aviation, the presence and results of customer support and services for this segment significantly expanded. In 2019, the Project Management Institute named the E-Jets E2 project that Mr. Affonso oversaw as the 2019 Project of the Year. From 2017 to 2020, Mr. Affonso was Senior Vice President of Corporate Strategy, Innovation and Digital Transformation at Embraer. During this period, EmbraerX, a company dedicated to disruptive innovation, was founded, ultimately leading to the conceptualization and creation of EVE UAM, LLC. Mr. Affonso also created Embraer’s innovation and strategic governance system, which focuses on developing strategies that aim to drive and manage innovation across the company. This program helped to create the strategies that are fueling Embraer’s turnaround after the COVID-19 pandemic.

General Information About the Board of Directors

Director Attendance at Board, Committee and Annual Meetings

Our board of directors held 10 (ten) meetings during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025. Each incumbent director serving during 2025 attended at least 90% of the aggregate of all meetings of the board of directors and all meetings of committees of which such director was a member during the period for which such director served. Our Corporate Governance Guidelines provide that directors are expected to attend the Company’s annual meeting of stockholders.

Director Independence

Under the New York Stock Exchange’s (“NYSE”) listing standards, we qualify for and avail ourselves of the controlled company exemptions under the corporate governance rules of the NYSE, including certain requirements relating to compensation committees and nominating and corporate governance committees. See “Committees of the Board of Directors” below for additional information.

As a controlled company (1), we are not required to have a majority of “independent directors” on our board of directors, as defined under the rules of the NYSE. Nevertheless, we undertook a review of the independence of our board of directors and have determined that each of Marion Clifton Blakey, Uallace Moreira Lima, Paul Eremenko and Sergio Pedreiro qualifies as “independent” as defined under the applicable NYSE rules.

___________________________

(1) A controlled company under the NYSE rules is a company where a single person, group, or entity holds more than 50% of the voting power.

Composition of the Board of Directors

Our business and affairs are managed under the direction of our board of directors. The Certificate of Incorporation and amended and restated bylaws (“Bylaws”) provide that our board of directors shall consist of at least one but not more than 15 members, and the number of directors may be increased or decreased from time to time by a resolution of the board. Our board currently consists of seven directors: Luis Carlos Affonso, Michael Amalfitano, Marion Clifton Blakey, Paul Eremenko and Sergio Pedreiro, who were nominated by Embraer Aircraft Holding, Inc. (“EAH”); Gerard J. DeMuro, who was initially designated by Zanite Sponsor LLC (the “Sponsor”); and Uallace Moreira Lima, who was designated by BNDES Participações S.A. – BNDESPAR (“BNDESPAR”) pursuant to the terms of the BNDESPAR Letter Agreement. For additional information, see “Certain Relationships and Related Person Transactions – BNDESPAR Letter Agreement.”

Board Leadership Structure

Our Corporate Governance Guidelines provide that the roles of Chairperson of the Board and Chief Executive Officer may be either separate or combined. Our board exercises its discretion in combining or separating these positions as it deems appropriate in the best interests of the Company, subject to the requirements of the Stockholders Agreement, dated as of May 9, 2022, by and among the Company, Embraer Aircraft Holding, Inc. and Zanite Sponsor LLC, as may be amended from time to time.

Currently, our board is chaired by Luis Carlos Affonso and our Chief Executive Officer is Johann Christian Jean Charles Bordais. As a general policy, we believe separation of the positions of chairperson and Chief Executive Officer, or having a lead independent director, reinforces the independence of the board of directors from management, creates an environment that encourages objective oversight of management’s performance and enhances the effectiveness of the board as a whole.

Board’s Role in Risk Oversight

Our management is responsible for identifying risks facing our Company, including strategic, financial, operational and regulatory risks, implementing risk management policies and procedures and managing our day-to-day risk exposure.

The Audit Committee discusses guidelines and policies governing the process by which senior management of the Company and the relevant departments of the Company, including the internal audit function, assess and manage the Company’s exposure to risk, as well as the Company’s major financial risk exposures and the steps management has taken to monitor and control such exposures.

In addition, the board of directors is regularly presented with information at its regularly scheduled and special meetings regarding risks facing our Company, and management provides more frequent, informal communications to the board of directors between regularly scheduled meetings which are designed to give the board of directors regular updates about our business. The board of directors considers this information and provides feedback, makes recommendations, and, as appropriate, authorizes or directs management to address particular exposures to risk.

Committees of the Board of Directors

Our board of directors directs the management of our business and affairs, as provided by Delaware law, and conducts its business through meetings of the board of directors and standing committees. We have a standing audit committee and a standing compensation committee, each of which operates under a written charter. As of the date of this proxy statement, we do not have a standing nominating and corporate governance committee, as we have availed ourselves of the controlled company exemptions from these requirements under the NYSE rules. Instead, such functions are performed by the board of directors. Our board may from time to time establish other committees.

Audit Committee

Our Audit Committee consists of Sergio Pedreiro, Marion Clifton Blakey, and Uallace Moreira Lima, with Sergio Pedreiro serving as the chair of the committee. Each member of the Audit Committee qualifies as an independent director under the NYSE corporate governance standards and the independence requirements of Rule 10A-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). In addition, each member of the Audit Committee is financially literate, as such qualification is interpreted by the board of directors in its business judgment. Our board of directors has also determined that Sergio Pedreiro qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert” as such term is defined in Item 407(d)(5) of Regulation S-K.

The Audit Committee’s responsibilities include, among other things:

 appointing, compensating, retaining, evaluating, terminating and overseeing our independent registered public accounting firm;

 discussing with our independent registered public accounting firm their independence from management;

 reviewing with our independent registered public accounting firm the scope and results of their audit;

 pre-approving all audit and permissible non-audit services to be performed by our independent registered public accounting firm;

 overseeing the financial reporting process and discussing with management and our independent registered public accounting firm the interim and annual financial statements that we file with the SEC;

 reviewing and monitoring our accounting principles, accounting policies, financial and accounting controls and compliance with legal and regulatory requirements;

 overseeing the policies and procedures in the Company’s Related Person Transactions Policy and reviewing proposed transactions requiring approval or ratification in accordance with such policy; and

 establishing procedures for the confidential anonymous submission of concerns regarding questionable accounting, internal controls or auditing matters.

Our board of directors adopted a written charter for the Audit Committee, which is available on our website, at www.eveairmobility.com.

Compensation Committee

Our Compensation Committee consists of Marion Clifton Blakey, Paul Eremenko and Gerard J. DeMuro, with Marion Clifton Blakey serving as the chair of the committee. As permitted by the controlled company exemptions under the NYSE corporate governance rules, our Compensation Committee is not composed entirely of independent directors; our board of directors determined that one member, Mr. DeMuro, is not independent.

The Compensation Committee’s responsibilities include, among other things:

 reviewing the goals and objectives of the Company’s executive compensation plans, and recommending that the Board amends, these goals and objectives if the Committee deems it appropriate;

 evaluating annually the performance of the Chief Executive Officer and the other executive officers, including in light of the goals and objectives of the Company’s executive compensation plans, and, either as a Committee or together with the other non-executive directors (as directed by the Board), recommending that the Board determines and approves the Chief Executive Officer’s and other executive officer’s compensation level based on this evaluation

 reviewing compensation arrangements for the Company’s employees to evaluate whether incentive and other forms of pay encourage unnecessary or excessive risk taking;

 reviewing and recommending that the Board approves, to the extent it deems necessary or as required by applicable law, the terms of any compensation “clawback” or similar policy or agreement between the Company and its executive officers or other employees for recovering incentive-based compensation; and

 reviewing and assessing on an annual basis the performance of the Compensation Committee.

Our board of directors adopted a written charter for the Compensation Committee, which is available on our website, www.eveairmobility.com.

Special Committee

On February 28, 2025, our board of directors established a Special Committee to, among other things, consider and evaluate a potential equity issuance to EAH and any alternatives thereto. Following the recommendation of our Special Committee and the additional required corporate approvals, we entered into subscription agreements with certain investors, including EAH, on August 13, 2025 for the issuance of shares of common stock at a purchase price of $4.85 per share. The Special Committee consisted of Paul Eremenko and Marion Clifton Blakey.

Director Compensation

Each non-employee director of the Company, excluding Messrs. Affonso, Amalfitano and Lima, receives an annual cash retainer of $60,000, payable $5,000 per month, and an annual equity grant of restricted stock units with a fair market value of $150,000 as of the date of the grant, vesting on the first anniversary of the grant. Mr. Lima’s compensation was determined based on a market study of executive compensation in Brazil conducted by the Company’s and approved by the Board. Mr. Lima has been omitted from the following table, since he was appointed to the Board after the end of our 2025 fiscal year, on January 27, 2026. Mr. Lima receives an annual cash retainer of $46,594.98, payable approximately $ 3,882.97 per month, and an annual equity grant of restricted stock units with a fair market value of $108,422.94 as of the date of the grant, vesting on the first anniversary of the grant (amounts have been converted from Brazilian reais to U.S. dollars using a conversion rate of  $5.58 to $1.00, representing the average exchange rate during the year ended December 31, 2025). In addition, the Chairperson of the Audit Committee receives an additional annual cash retainer of $25,000, the Chairperson of the Compensation Committee receives an additional annual cash retainer of $20,000 and the Chairperson of the Special Committee received an additional annual cash retainer of $20,000.

Code of Conduct

Our board has adopted a code of conduct that applies to all of our executive officers, directors and employees, including our principal executive officers, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller or persons performing similar functions. The code of conduct is available on our website, www.eveairmobility.com. We intend to make any legally required disclosures regarding amendments to, or waivers of, provisions of our code of conduct on our website rather than by filing a Current Report on Form 8-K.

Communications with the Board of Directors

Stockholders of the Company and other interested parties wishing to communicate with the board or an individual director may send a written communication to the board or such director at the following address:

c/o Eve Holding, Inc.
1400 General Aviation Drive

Melbourne, FL 32935
Attn: Secretary

The Secretary will review each communication and will forward such communication to the board of directors or to any individual director to whom the communication is addressed unless the communication contains advertisements or solicitations or is unduly hostile, threatening or similarly inappropriate, in which case the Secretary shall discard the communication or inform the proper authorities, as may be appropriate.

PROPOSAL 2 – ADVISORY VOTE ON THE COMPENSATION OF OUR NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS

In accordance with the rules of the SEC, we are asking stockholders to vote to approve, on a non-binding advisory basis, the compensation of our NEOs as described in this Proxy Statement. This non-binding advisory vote is commonly referred to as a “say on pay” vote and gives our stockholders the opportunity to express their views on our NEOs’ compensation as a whole. This vote is not intended to address any specific item of compensation or any specific NEO, but rather the overall compensation of all of our NEOs and the philosophy, policies, and practices described in this Proxy Statement. Accordingly, we are asking our stockholders to approve the following advisory resolution:

“RESOLVED, that the stockholders of Eve Holding, Inc. (the “Company”) approve, on a non-binding advisory basis, the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers as disclosed in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, compensation tables, and associated narrative discussion set forth in the Proxy Statement for the Company’s 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.”

Stockholders are urged to read the section titled “Executive Compensation,” which discusses how our executive compensation policies and procedures implement our compensation philosophy and contains tabular information and narrative discussion about the compensation of our NEOs. Our compensation committee and board of directors believe that these policies and procedures are effective in implementing our compensation philosophy and in achieving our goals.

As an advisory vote, this proposal is not binding. However, our board of directors and compensation committee, which is responsible for designing and administering our executive compensation program, value the opinions expressed by stockholders in their vote on this proposal and will consider the outcome of the vote when making future compensation decisions for our NEOs.

Required Vote

Approval by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares of Common Stock present in person, or represented by proxy, and entitled to vote thereon is required to approve, on a non-binding advisory basis, the compensation of our NEOs. Abstentions will have the same effect as a vote “against” on this proposal and broker non-votes will have no effect on this proposal.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT STOCKHOLDERS VOTE IN FAVOR OF THE APPROVAL, ON A NON-BINDING BASIS, OF THE COMPENSATION OF OUR NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS.

PROPOSAL 3 – ADVISORY VOTE ON THE FREQUENCY OF FUTURE ADVISORY VOTE ON THE COMPENSATION OF OUR NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS

In accordance with the rules of the SEC, we are asking stockholders to vote, on a non-binding advisory basis, on the frequency of future non-binding advisory votes on the compensation of our NEOs. This non-binding advisory vote is commonly referred to as a “say on frequency” vote and must be submitted to stockholders at least once every six years. This vote is not intended to address any specific item of compensation or any specific NEO, but rather the overall compensation of all of our NEOs and the philosophy, policies, and practices described in this Proxy Statement.

You have four choices for voting on this proposal. You can choose whether future non-binding advisory votes on the compensation of our NEOs should be conducted every “one year,” “two years,” or “three years.” You may also “abstain” from voting. After careful consideration, our board of directors recommends that future non-binding advisory votes on the compensation of our NEOs be held every three years so that stockholders may express their views on our executive compensation program.

Stockholders are not voting to approve or disapprove the board of directors’ recommendation. Instead, stockholders may indicate their preference regarding the frequency of future non-binding advisory votes on the compensation of our NEOs by selecting one year, two years, or three years. Stockholders that do not have a preference regarding the frequency of future advisory votes may abstain from voting on the proposal.

As an advisory vote, this proposal is not binding. However, our board of directors and compensation committee value the opinions expressed by stockholders in their vote on this proposal and will consider the outcome of the vote when making future decisions regarding the frequency of holding future non-binding advisory votes on the compensation of our NEOs. Because this is an advisory vote and therefore not binding on our board of directors or our company, our board of directors may decide that it is in the best interests of our stockholders that we hold an advisory vote on the compensation of our NEOs more or less frequently than the option preferred by our stockholders. The results of the vote will not be construed to create or imply any change or addition to the fiduciary duties of our board of directors.

Required Vote

The frequency receiving the greatest number of votes cast will be deemed the preferred frequency option of our stockholders. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on this proposal.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS A VOTE TO HOLD FUTURE ADVISORY VOTES ON THE COMPENSATION OF OUR NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS EVERY THREE YEARS.

PROPOSAL 4 – RATIFICATION OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Audit Committee is responsible for the appointment, compensation, retention, and oversight of the Company’s independent auditors. In connection with this responsibility, the Audit Committee evaluates and monitors the auditors’ qualifications, performance, and independence. This responsibility includes a review and evaluation of the independent auditors. The Audit Committee approves all audit engagement fees and terms associated with the retention of the independent auditors.

As a matter of good corporate governance, the board of directors is requesting our stockholders to ratify the Audit Committee’s selection of KPMG LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026. KPMG LLP has served as our independent registered public accounting firm since May 2022. The Audit Committee and the board of directors believe that the continued retention of KPMG LLP as our independent auditors is in the best interests of the Company. The Audit Committee carefully considered the selection of KPMG LLP as our independent auditors. The Audit Committee charter requires the Audit Committee to periodically consider whether the independent audit firm should be rotated. In addition to evaluating rotation of the independent auditors, the Audit Committee oversees the selection of the new lead audit partner, and the Audit Committee chair participates directly in the selection of the new lead audit partner.

If the stockholders do not ratify the selection, the Audit Committee will reconsider its selection. Even if the selection is ratified, the Audit Committee, in its discretion, may direct the appointment of a different independent registered public accounting firm at any time during the year if the Audit Committee determines that such a change would be in the best interests of the Company and our stockholders.

Representatives from KPMG LLP are expected to be present at the Annual Meeting and will have an opportunity to make a statement at the Annual Meeting if they desire to do so and are expected to be available to respond to appropriate questions at the Annual Meeting.

Required Vote

Approval by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares of Common Stock present in person, or represented by proxy, and entitled to vote thereon is required to ratify the selection of KPMG LLP. Abstentions will have the same effect as a vote “against” on this proposal. We do not expect any broker non-votes, as brokers generally have discretion to vote uninstructed shares on this proposal.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT STOCKHOLDERS VOTE IN FAVOR OF THE RATIFICATION OF THE APPOINTMENT OF KPMG LLP AS OUR INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDING DECEMBER 31, 2026.

Audit Committee Pre-Approval Policy

Our Audit Committee is responsible for approving all audit, audit-related and certain other services specified in its charter. The Audit Committee reviews and, in its sole discretion, approves in advance the independent auditors’ annual engagement letter, including the proposed fees contained therein, as well as all audit and all permitted non-audit engagements and relationships between the Company and the independent auditor (which approval should be made after receiving input from the Company’s management, if desired). Approval of audit and permitted non-audit services will be made by the Audit Committee.

AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT

The Audit Committee reviewed and discussed the audited consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, with our management and with our independent registered public accounting firm, KPMG LLP. In addition, the Audit Committee discussed with KPMG LLP the matters required to be discussed by the applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (the “PCAOB”) and the SEC.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS

This Compensation Discussion and Analysis (“CD&A”) provides information regarding the objectives and principles of Eve Holding, Inc. and its subsidiaries (hereinafter referred to as “Eve” or the “Company”) executive compensation program, including the Company’s compensation philosophy as it relates to its named executive officers (“NEOs”). For fiscal year 2025, our NEOs were:

 Johann Bordais – Chief Executive Officer (CEO)

 Eduardo Couto – Chief Financial Officer (CFO)

 Simone Oliveira – General Counsel and Chief Compliance Officer

2025 Business Highlights

In 2025, Eve advanced its strategic priorities, progressing toward commercial readiness and long-term value creation for our stockholders. December's first flight of the full-scale engineering prototype validated years of development and strengthened confidence in the design. Management led with disciplined execution across finance, commercialization, product development, and certification.

Key highlights for fiscal year 2025 include:

Financial Management

Eve raised $230 million in equity and secured $50 million in long-term debt, establishing a strong capital base. The company maintained disciplined cost control, keeping spending within planned levels.

Commercialization

Eve signed its first binding commercial agreement with Revo, an Urban Air Mobility operator in São Paulo, Brazil, and announced the deal at the Paris Air Show. This $250 million agreement marks a significant step in Eve’s commercialization strategy, focusing on firm customer commitments and initial payments aligned with its pricing framework to protect margins. Eve then presented commercial proposals to nine additional customers.

Product Development

Since the first flight at Embraer’s test facility in Brazil, Eve’s full-scale engineering prototype has completed 47 flights, logging about 1 hour and 57 minutes of flight time as of April 6, 2026. Pilots reported smooth, predictable handling, and power consumption surpassed projections, further validating the aircraft’s efficiency and design.

Certification Progress

Eve achieved significant progress with both Brazilian and U.S. aviation authorities. The Company aligned with Brazil’s National Civil Aviation Agency (“ANAC”) on detailed design standards, submitted proposed methods of compliance, and delivered its certification plans, demonstrating tangible advancement in the type certification process. In the United States, the Federal Aviation Administration (“FAA”) published final powered-lift airworthiness criteria under Advisory Circular AC 21.17-4C, which Eve is considering as a basis for a revised proposal on airworthiness criteria. By aligning with these criteria, Eve establishes a clear path for future FAA validation.

Compensation Philosophy and Objectives

The Company’s executive compensation program is designed to attract and retain the executive leadership necessary to achieve its strategic objectives, including the certification of its eVTOL aircraft and the launch of its commercial operations, while motivating our leaders to make a long‑term commitment to the Company’s success. Consistent with this approach, the Company emphasizes long‑term performance as a key element of its compensation philosophy.

Until the Company is able to certify its aircraft and commence commercial operations, it remains highly focused on preserving cash. As a result, the Company has placed a greater emphasis on equity‑based compensation, including short‑term and long‑term incentive awards with performance conditions tied to critical certification and commercialization milestones, reinforcing alignment between executive incentives and sustainable, long‑term value creation.

We have designed our executive compensation program to reflect industry best practices, including the following:

 Alignment with Stockholder Interests: Equity-based incentives that tie our executive compensation to long-term value creation for our stockholders.

 Performance-Based Rewards: Performance goals that are designed to drive long-term value and to align with our strategic objectives such as certification, entry into services, industrialization and commercialization.

 Cash Preservation: Limited use of cash-based incentives during the pre-revenue phase to preserve liquidity for strategic investments.

Objectives of the Compensation Program:

 Drive progress toward regulatory certification and entry into service.

 Retain key talent through long-term incentive opportunities.

 Promote prudent decision-making consistent with our values, safety and compliance.

What the Program is Designed to Reward:

 Achievement of corporate goals.

 Individual contributions to strategic initiatives.

 Long‑term commitment to Eve’s mission and results.

Elements of Compensation and Rationale:

1. Base Salary: We provide a competitive fixed base salary to compensate all our employees, including our NEOs, to reward day-to-day deliveries.

2. Annual Cash Incentive: Our short-incentive program is designed to reward achievement of annual corporate and individual performance goals.

3. Long-Term Incentives: We maintain equity incentive programs across our workforce, including for our NEOs, to reinforce long-term alignment with stockholders and support retention and sustained performance over time.

4. Benefits: We focus on supporting employee well‑being to strengthen productivity and organizational culture, while ensuring our people practices remain competitive and aligned with local market conditions across the regions where Eve operates.

How Compensation Amounts Are Determined:

 Performance Metrics: Corporate performance metrics for short- and long-term incentive awards are designed to motivate achievement of corporate milestones and strategic objectives that are important to our long-term growth.

 Individual Performance (Merit Cycle): Individual performance is assessed annually based on leadership, strategic contribution and execution.

 Market Comparison: Our Compensation Committee reviews external market data as a market check.

 Formal Approval: All proposals are discussed with the Compensation Committee and submitted to the Board of Directors for approval.

Under its Charter, the Compensation Committee has the following duties and responsibilities regarding executive compensation:

(i) Review at least annually the Company’s executive compensation plans in light of the Company’s goals and objectives with respect to such plans, and, if the Compensation Committee deems it appropriate, recommend that the Board of Directors adopt new, or amend existing, executive compensation plans. In 2025, the Compensation Committee did not make any specific recommendations to the Board of Directors regarding changes to the Company’s executive compensation plans.

(ii) The Compensation Committee conducts annual evaluation of our CEO’s performance based on the achievement of corporate goals and the demonstration of the behavioral competencies required for the role. When determining our CEO’s base salary, short‑term, and long‑term compensation, the Compensation Committee considers the Company’s overall performance, alignment with its compensation philosophy, and market competitiveness after considering market compensation data. Based on this assessment, the Compensation Committee recommended adjustments to our CEO’s compensation for fiscal year 2025 and submitted them for approval by the Board of Directors.

(iii) The CFO’s and the General Counsel’s performances are evaluated by our CEO, with the support of the Vice President of Human Resources. This assessment considers their demonstration of the behavioral competencies required for the role, as well as the achievement of corporate and individual performance objectives. Based on this evaluation and following consideration of market compensation data, the CEO, with the Vice President of Human Resources, proposes the appropriate compensation level for the other NEOs, including long‑term incentive components. These proposals are presented to the Compensation Committee, which reviewed them and subsequently submitted its recommendation to the Board of Directors for final approval.

Executive Compensation – Determination Process

The Compensation Committee considers a variety of companies and survey data but is not limited to a specific group, when assessing the Company’s executive compensation programs. It focuses on aligning executive compensation with the Company’s objectives and stockholder value creation. With the assistance of independent compensation consultants, the Compensation Committee reviewed market and survey data which it used as a market check when evaluating executive compensation for fiscal year 2025. Korn Ferry supported the review of compensation practices and market data for Brazil, and Willis Towers Watson supported the review for the United States.

Other considerations taken into account by our Compensation Committee when making executive compensation decisions include perspectives provided by the CEO and the Vice President of Human Resources (other than with respect to CEO’s own compensation), the breadth and strategic importance of the role, individual performance history and anticipated future impact, the value and vesting profile of outstanding equity awards, and an assessment of internal pay alignment, considering overall business impact and performance.

Allocation Policies

The Company’s executive compensation program is structured to balance short term and long term incentives. This approach is designed to align executive performance with the Company interests and strategic objectives while incentivizing NEO retention.

Consistent with this philosophy, a significant portion of executive compensation is delivered in equity. The predominant use of equity incentives reinforces a long‑term ownership mindset among executives and supports the Company’s objective of preserving cash while rewarding sustained performance.

Long‑term incentives are delivered through grants of restricted stock units (“RSUs”), which may be subject to either time‑based or performance‑based vesting conditions. Time‑based RSUs vest based solely on continued service over a specified vesting period and are intended primarily to promote executive retention. Performance‑based RSUs vest based on the achievement of pre‑established performance objectives, which may include corporate performance, the achievement of strategic objectives and individual goals, as determined by the Compensation Committee.

The Compensation Committee establishes and reviews these allocation principles annually to ensure an appropriate balance between short term and long term compensation and Eve’s competitiveness and provide to the Board of Directors a recommendation to any changes or to maintain the current strategy.

Base Salary

The Compensation Committee believes that base salaries are an important component of our executive compensation program and are critical in providing stability and competitiveness without incentivizing undue risk‑taking. The Compensation Committee reviews base salaries of our named executive officers in the first half of each fiscal year. In setting annual base salaries, the Compensation Committee takes into consideration the NEO's individual performance, leadership, strategic contribution and execution and reviews alignment with the Company's corporate milestones and strategic goals, the scope of an executive officer’s job responsibilities, other components of compensation and other relevant factors.

As part of its annual compensation review for fiscal year 2025, the Compensation Committee recommended for approval by the Board of Directors increases to the annual base salaries of our named executive officers as set forth below:

Named Executive Officer	2024 Base Salary	2025 Base Salary	Effective Date
Johann Bordais (CEO)	$322,280	$349,137	January 1, 2025
Eduardo Couto (CFO)	$376,698	$408,000	May 12, 2025
Simone Oliveira	$136,517	$143,200	May 1, 2025

In recommending to the Board of Director’s approval of the base salary adjustments for fiscal year 2025 described above, the Compensation Committee considered the Company’s annual performance evaluation process, market reference data provided by Korn Ferry and Willis Towers Watson, and the Company’s continued emphasis on disciplined cash management as it advances toward key certification and commercialization milestones. The Compensation Committee also evaluated individual executive performance, evolving responsibilities, and internal pay equity in determining that these adjustments were appropriate.

Annual Incentive Compensation

The Company maintains an annual cash incentive program designed to motivate its NEOs and reward the achievement of short term performance objectives that support the Company’s long term business strategy. Each NEO is eligible to receive an annual cash incentive award based on the achievement of corporate performance goals and, where applicable, individual performance objectives, as determined annually by the Compensation Committee and submitted to the Board of Directors for approval.

For fiscal year 2025, annual incentive opportunities were primarily tied to the achievement of corporate level performance objectives, including progress toward the Company’s strategic and operational milestones. We have omitted disclosure of the Company’s particular strategic and performance objectives and related performance goal achievement because we believe such disclosure would cause the Company substantial competitive harm by providing competitors insight into our business operations. However, our Compensation Committee has discussed and submitted for approval by our Board of Directors performance goals at definitive, rigorous, and objective levels so as to require significant effort and achievement by our executive team to be attained.

Following its review of the Company’s performance against these objectives, the Compensation Committee determined, and the Board of Directors approved, that the Company achieved 99% of its established corporate goals for fiscal year 2025.

CEO Incentive Structure.

For our CEO, the short term incentive opportunity is based solely on the achievement of corporate performance goals. The CEO does not have an individual performance component within the annual incentive calculation. This structure reflects the Compensation Committee’s view that the CEO’s performance is most appropriately measured in relation to overall Company results and the execution of corporate level strategic priorities. Accordingly, based on performance for 2025, the CEO achieved a payout level of 99%.

CFO and General Counsel Incentive Structure.

For our CFO and our General Counsel, the annual short‑term incentive opportunity is based on corporate performance goals (70%) and individual performance goals (30%). The Compensation Committee establishes the weighting of each component annually to ensure alignment between Company‑wide performance, functional leadership responsibilities, and the individual contributions of these executives to the Company’s operational and strategic milestones. Based on performance for 2025, the CFO achieved a payout level of 114.30% and the General Counsel achieved a payout level of 112.65%.

Annual incentive awards are calculated by multiplying each NEO’s annual base salary by the applicable target incentive percentage and the level of performance achieved, with payout opportunities ranging from 0% to 150% of the target award opportunity, depending on actual results relative to established goals.

The following table summarizes the target annual incentive opportunities and the annual incentive awards earned by our named executive officers for fiscal year 2025:

Named Executive Officer	2025 Target Annual Incentive ($)	2025 Annual Incentive Paid ($)
Johann Bordais	349,137	345,646
Eduardo Couto	320,000	365,760
Simone Oliveira	93,080	104,855

Long-Term Equity Incentives

Long‑Term Equity Incentive Program

The Compensation Committee considers long‑term equity incentives to be a critical component of the Company’s executive compensation program. These awards are intended to attract and retain executive leadership, motivate sustained performance, and align the interests of our NEOs with those of our stockholders. All equity awards are granted under the Eve Holding, Inc. 2022 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2022 Plan”). Each restricted stock unit (“RSU”) represents the right to receive one share of the Company’s common stock upon vesting, and unvested RSUs are forfeited if the NEO’s service with the Company terminates prior to vesting, except where the applicable award agreement provides otherwise. See “—Termination and Change‑in‑Control Benefits” below.

Upon commencement of employment, each NEO received an initial equity award consisting of 95% performance‑based RSUs and 5% time‑based RSUs. In addition, the Company generally makes annual equity grants to its NEOs consisting of 100% time‑based RSUs. Such equity award grants are structured to support long‑term retention and reinforce alignment with the Company’s strategic and operational priorities. The Company’s long‑term incentive (“LTI”) program is designed to balance retention incentives with performance‑based opportunities tied to the achievement of critical operational and commercialization milestones.

Types of Equity Awards

Time‑Based Restricted Stock Units

Time‑based RSUs are intended to promote long‑term retention and sustained alignment with stockholder interests. These awards generally cliff‑vest on the third anniversary of the vesting commencement date, subject to the NEO’s continued employment with the Company through such date.

Performance‑Based Restricted Stock Units (Market Value‑Linked)

Market value‑linked performance‑based RSUs are designed to align executive compensation with valuation growth and long‑term stockholder value creation. While total stockholder return (“TSR”) metrics are commonly used by more mature operating companies, Eve’s current performance framework utilizes operational, regulatory, and commercialization measures that the Compensation Committee views as conceptually equivalent indicators of long‑term value creation given the Company’s stage of development.

Market value-linked awards may be earned at between 0% and 200% of the target number of RSUs, based on the Company’s valuation measured on the fifth anniversary of the vesting commencement date as measured against a performance target of $2.910 billion (USD), subject to continued service and compliance with applicable share ownership requirements. The threshold amount of performance required under the market-value linked RSUs is 60% of the performance target. If the valuation achieved by the Company is between 60% of the target performance and target performance, 100% of the RSUs would vest. If the valuation achieved by the Company exceeds 100% of the performance target, for each percentage point above the performance target, the NEOs would vest in additional percentage of shares proportional to the percent exceeding the performance target not to exceed 100% of the Performance Target.

Performance‑Based Restricted Stock Units (Milestone‑Linked)

Milestone‑linked performance‑based RSUs are designed to incentivize the achievement of critical strategic objectives in the Company’s development and commercialization roadmap. These awards vest in three separate tranches based on the attainment of three pre‑defined Company performance milestones, as recommended by the Compensation Committee and approved by the Board of Directors, and are subject to the NEO’s continued service through the applicable vesting dates. Vesting under each tranche occurs only upon the achievement of the respective milestone.

We have omitted disclosure of the Company’s particular performance milestones for the milestone-linked performance-based RSUs because we believe such disclosure would cause the Company substantial competitive harm by providing competitors with insight into our business operations. The milestones are rigorously discussed and reviewed by the Compensation Committee and recommended to the Board of Directors for approval, and vesting under each tranche is achieved only upon the attainment of the applicable milestone, consistent with the Company’s long‑term strategy and performance objectives.

2025 RSU Grants to our NEOs

During fiscal year 2025, our NEOs each received a time-based RSU grant as set forth in the table below. We did not grant any performance-based RSUs in 2025.

NEO	2025 Time-Based RSUs Grant (no. of RSUs)	Vesting Date
Johann Bordais	74,535	May 9, 2028
Eduardo Couto	102,858	May 9, 2028
Simone Oliveira	17,392	May 9, 2028

Retirement Benefits

Our NEOs are eligible to participate in the Company’s retirement and benefit plans on the same basis as other employees in their respective jurisdictions. In the United States, this includes participation in the Company’s defined contribution 401(k) retirement plan, with Company matching contributions. In Brazil, NEOs participate in mandatory statutory retirement programs and Company‑sponsored benefits applicable to Brazilian employees.

The Company does not sponsor or maintain any non-qualified deferred compensation or defined benefit pension plans for its NEOs.

Benefits and Perquisites

Our NEOs are eligible to participate in the Company’s health and welfare benefit plans on the same basis as other employees in their respective jurisdictions. These benefits include medical and other applicable health and welfare programs, as well as retirement‑related benefits, provided to employees.

In addition to the benefits described above, Ms. Oliveira received $32,765 in fiscal year 2025 in connection with the Company’s reimbursement of her relocation expenses. The value of this benefit is reflected in the Summary Compensation Table under “All Other Compensation”. Aside from this relocation‑related benefit for Ms. Oliveira, the Company did not provide material perquisites to its NEOs during fiscal year 2025.

Employment Agreement

Bordais Employment Agreement

On September 29, 2023, Johann Christian Jean Charles Bordais entered into an employment agreement with the Company and its Brazilian subsidiary, Eve Soluções de Mobilidade Aérea Urbana Ltda., pursuant to which Mr. Bordais serves as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. The employment agreement provides for an annual base salary, and Mr. Bordais is eligible to receive an annual cash bonus and periodic grants of restricted stock units under the 2022 Plan.

In accordance with the terms of his employment agreement, on October 30, 2023, Mr. Bordais received a one‑time equity grant consisting of 17,181 time‑based RSUs which vest on September 1, 2026 subject to Mr. Bordais’s continued service with the Company through such date and 326,435 performance‑based RSUs, comprised of 171,808 market value‑linked performance‑based RSUs and 154,627 milestone-linked performance-based RSUs.

Mr. Bordais’ employment agreement also includes customary post‑employment restrictive covenants, including provisions limiting competitive activity following his separation from the Company (as further described below in “Potential Payments Upon Termination and Change-in-Control”).

Accounting and Tax Considerations

The Compensation Committee considers accounting and tax implications in designing awards, but also looks at other factors in making its decisions, including the Company’s strategic objectives. We account for stock-based compensation in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718, which requires us to recognize compensation expense for share-based payments. The Compensation Committee takes into account the compensation expense recognized under FASB ASC Topic 718 when granting equity awards .

Clawback Policy

The Company maintains a clawback policy that applies to any cash or equity incentive compensation awarded to our executive officers. Under this policy, in the event of a restatement of the Company’s financial statements covering any of the three fiscal years preceding the payment or grant of such incentive compensation, or if an executive officer is found to have engaged in fraud, willful misconduct, or any other action or inaction that would give rise to a termination for cause, the Board of Directors may require that such incentive compensation be forfeited or recovered.

In addition, in 2023, the Company adopted a supplemental clawback policy for executive officers in order to comply with SEC rules promulgated under the Dodd‑Frank Act and the NYSE listing standards. This policy applies to all incentive‑based compensation (including cash bonus payments) received by our current and former Section 16 officers on or after October 2, 2023, the effective date specified in the NYSE listing standards.

Stock Ownership and Hedging Policy

Executives are prohibited from engaging in any hedging or pledging transactions involving Eve securities, as discussed in further detail below.

Policies and Practices Related to the Grant of Certain Equity Awards Close in Time to the Release of Material Nonpublic Information

The Company does not currently grant awards of stock options, stock appreciation rights, or similar option-like instruments. Accordingly, the Company has no specific policy or practice on the timing of awards of such options in relation to the disclosure of material nonpublic information by the Company. In the event the Company determines to grant awards of such options, the Board of Directors and the Compensation Committee will evaluate the appropriate steps to take in relation to the foregoing.

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE REPORT

The Compensation Committee has reviewed and discussed this CD&A with management and based on this review and discussion, recommended to the Board of Directors that the CD&A be included in Eve Holding, Inc.’s Proxy Statement.

Compensation Committee

Marion Clifton Blakey (Chair)

Paul Eremenko

Gerard J. DeMuro

The above Compensation Committee Report is not soliciting material, is not deemed filed with the SEC and is not incorporated by reference in any of our filings under the Securities Act, or the Exchange Act whether made before or after the date of this proxy statement and irrespective of any general incorporation language in any such filings.

Narrative disclosure of the registrant’s compensation policies and practices as they relate to the registrant’s risk management

The Compensation Committee, with the assistance of management, conducted a comprehensive assessment of the Company’s compensation policies and practices applicable to all employees, including the NEOs, for the purpose of evaluating whether such policies and practices create risks that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company.

Based on this review, the Compensation Committee determined that the Company’s compensation programs do not encourage excessive or inappropriate risk‑taking and are not reasonably likely to have a material adverse impact on the Company.

In reaching this conclusion, the Compensation Committee considered, among other factors, the following:

 Balanced Compensation Structure.

Company maintains a compensation framework with an appropriate balance between fixed and variable compensation, with a meaningful weighting toward long‑term incentive opportunities designed to promote sustained value creation and align the interests of executives with those of stockholders.

 Appropriately Designed Performance Metrics.

The Company’s incentive plans utilize performance measures tied to certification, finance management, evolution of product development, compliance, safety performance, and key operational milestones, which are intended to discourage imprudent or excessive risk‑taking.

 Clawback Policy.

The Company maintains a clawback policy that permits the recovery of incentive‑based compensation in the event of a financial restatement or misconduct, thereby reducing incentives to engage in activities that could create undue risk.

 Robust Governance and Oversight.

The Compensation Committee regularly reviews the structural and strategic components of the Company’s compensation programs and, where appropriate, recommends such programs to the Board of Directors for approval. Areas subject to review include, but are not limited to:

 the structure of the NEO short‑term incentive plan;

 the Company’s executive compensation philosophy;

 the design of annual and long‑term incentive programs; and

 assessments of market competitiveness, including analyses of internal salary structures relative to external benchmark data.

 No Guaranteed Incentive Compensation.

The Company does not provide guaranteed bonus opportunities.

Incentive compensation payouts are contingent on Company performance and are subject to the review of the Compensation Committee and Board of Directors for approval.

This section sets forth the compensation of our NEOs for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025. For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, Johann Christian Jean Charles Bordais served as our principal executive officer, Eduardo Couto served as our principal financial officer and Simone Galvão de Oliveira served as our general counsel and chief compliance officer and Secretary of the Board of Directors.

Equity Awards

Each of the equity-based awards granted during fiscal year 2025 and reported in the Grants of Plan-Based Awards Table was granted under, and is subject to, the terms of the 2022 Plan.  The awards disclosed in the Grants Table include: 

 Time Based Restricted Stock Units (RSUs): Each RSU granted during fiscal year 2025 to an NEO reported in the table above is subject to a three-year vesting schedule, vesting on the third anniversary of the grant date, subject to the NEO's continued employment through the applicable vesting date.

 Performance Based Restricted Stock Units (RSUs):  Each RSU granted during fiscal year 2025 to an NEO reported in the “Stock Awards” column in the 2025 Summary Compensation Table and the “Estimated Possible Payouts Under Equity Incentive Plan Awards" column of the Grants of Plan-Based Awards Table vests upon achievement of predefined operational and strategic performance goals, subject to continued employment through the applicable vesting date. 

 Dividends. NEOs have no right to receive dividends, unless and until (and only to the extent) the Restricted Stock Units have vested and, thereafter, the shares have been distributed. Any dividends the Company declares between the grant date and the date the shares are distributed will be converted into dividend equivalent units, which will be delivered at the time of settlement of the associated RSUs.

For additional information, see the section entitled “Compensation Discussion and Analysis—Long-Term Equity Incentives”.

POTENTIAL PAYMENTS UPON TERMINATION OR CHANGE-IN-CONTROL

The Company has entered into employment and service arrangements with its named executive officers that provide for severance benefits under limited circumstances.

Pursuant to the terms of Mr. Bordais’ employment agreement, if his employment is terminated by the Company without Cause or by Mr. Bordais for Good Reason (each as defined in the employment agreement), and subject to the execution of a release of claims in favor of the Company and compliance with applicable Brazilian labor law, he is entitled to severance equal to his annual base salary, in addition to any severance required under Brazilian law.

Ms. Oliveira is entitled to severance payments as required under applicable Brazilian labor law.

In connection with a termination of employment, the NEOs are subject to post‑termination restrictive covenants, including confidentiality and non‑solicitation obligations and, where applicable and if elected by the Company, non‑competition restrictions for up to 12 months following termination.

Under the terms of each of the NEOs’ equity award agreements under the 2022 Plan, if an NEO is terminated by the Company without Cause (as defined in the 2022 Plan) or pursuant to a mutual separation, unvested equity awards generally remain outstanding and vest on a pro rata basis based on the period of service through the termination date. Certain equity awards (the one-time initial equity grants to our NEOs) require a minimum service period of 24 months in order to be eligible for pro rata vesting, while the Company’s recurring annual equity awards do not require a minimum service period and provide for pro rata vesting upon a qualifying termination. In the case of performance‑based awards, vesting remains subject to the satisfaction of applicable performance conditions. Voluntary resignation results in the forfeiture of all unvested awards.

Under the terms of the 2022 Plan, in the event of a “Change in Control” (as defined in the 2022 Plan), if (i) an outstanding RSU award is not assumed or substituted in connection with such Change in Control, or (ii) an outstanding RSU award is assumed or substituted and the NEO’s employment is terminated without “Cause” (as defined in the 2022 Plan) or by the NEO for Good Reason (as defined in the NEO’s employment agreement, if applicable) within 12 months following the Change in Control, any such outstanding RSUs will become vested and payable, with any applicable performance conditions deemed satisfied at target levels.

In the event of an executive’s death or disability during a performance period, unvested incentive awards may be paid on a prorated basis, with performance deemed achieved at target, as determined by the Compensation Committee and subject to approval by the Board of Directors. Any such vesting or payment remains subject to the applicable performance metrics for performance‑based awards and, in the case of time‑based awards, compliance with the original vesting schedule.

PAY VERSUS PERFORMANCE

The following table sets forth the compensation for our former CEOs (also referred to as “PEOs”) and the average compensation for our other NEOs, both as reported in the Summary Compensation Table and with certain adjustments to reflect the “compensation actually paid” to such individuals, as calculated in a manner consistent with Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K, for each of 2025, 2024 and 2023. The table also provides information on our cumulative total shareholder return (“TSR”), the cumulative TSR of our peer group and net income (loss) for the fiscal years 2025, 2024 and 2023. Neither the Board of Directors nor the compensation committee considers any specific financial measures in making compensation decisions for our NEOs, so we have not included a column regarding a "Company Selected Measure."

(a) The grant date fair value of equity awards represents the total of the amounts reported in the “Stock Awards” and “Option Awards” columns in the Summary Compensation Table for the applicable year.

(b) The equity award adjustments for each applicable year include the addition (or subtraction, as applicable) of the following: (i) the year-end fair value of any equity awards granted in the applicable year that are outstanding and unvested as of the end of the year; (ii) the amount of change as of the end of the applicable year (from the end of the prior fiscal year) in fair value of any awards granted in prior years that are outstanding and unvested as of the end of the applicable year; (iii) for awards that are granted and vest in the same applicable year, the fair value as of the vesting date; (iv) for awards granted in prior years that vest in the applicable year, the amount equal to the change as of the vesting date (from the end of the prior fiscal year) in fair value; and (v) for awards granted in prior years that are determined to fail to meet the applicable vesting conditions during the applicable year, a deduction for the amount equal to the fair value at the end of the prior fiscal year. The assumptions used to calculate the fair values set forth in the table above are computed in accordance with ASC 718 and did not differ materially from those used to calculate the grant date fair value for each award.

(3) The peer group for purposes of this table is NYSE Arca Airline Index, which is the same as our peer group disclosed in the Stock Performance Graph in Item 5 of Part II of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025.

Most Important Measures

Neither the Board of Directors nor the Compensation Committee considers any financial measures in determining compensation for our NEOs.

Relationship Between Compensation Actually Paid and Performance

In 2025, the compensation actually paid to our NEOs is linked to corporate and specific goals performance through our 2024 Short-Term Incentive Program. Compensation actually paid related to Long‑Term Incentive awards generally reflects awards granted in prior years and is influenced by stock price performance over multiple periods, as described in greater detail in the CD&A. We do not currently use any financial performance measures to link executive compensation actually paid to Company performance.

The chart below compares the compensation actually paid to the PEO, the average of compensation actually paid to our NEOs and the TSR performance of our stock price and the TSR performance of the NYSE Arca Airline Index companies group over the three-year period of 2023 through 2025.

Graphics a

The chart below illustrates the relationship among compensation actually paid to the PEO, the average compensation actually paid to our NEOs, and our net loss for each of the three most recently completed fiscal years. Although net income (loss) is not used as a performance metric in our executive compensation program, the chart highlights that compensation actually paid to our NEOs does not track our net loss over the periods presented.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

As permitted by the controlled company exemptions under the NYSE corporate governance rules, our Compensation Committee is not composed entirely of independent directors; our Board of Directors determined that one member, Mr. DeMuro, who previously served as our Co-Chief Executive Officer until October 2023 and then as Executive Vice President of Corporate Development until January 2024, is not independent.

None of our executive officers currently serves, or has served during the last year, as a member of the Board of Directors or Compensation Committee of any entity, other than the Company or Zanite, prior to the business combination, or Embraer, that has one or more executive officers who also serve as a member of our Board of Directors.

Insider Trading Policy

We have adopted an Insider Trading Policy governing the purchase, sale and other dispositions of our securities by our directors, officers and employees that we believe is reasonably designed to promote compliance with applicable insider trading laws, rules and regulations and listing standards. Our Insider Trading Policy is filed as Exhibit 19.1 to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025.

Prohibitions against Hedging and Pledging

Under our insider trading policy, all directors, officers and employees of the Company are prohibited from engaging in hedging transactions (such as collars, equity swaps, exchange funds and prepaid variable forward sale contracts) involving our securities and Embraer’s securities, holding our securities or Embraer’s securities in a margin account or pledging our securities or Embraer’s securities as collateral for a loan

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PERSON TRANSACTIONS

In addition to the director and executive officer compensation arrangements discussed above in the section entitled “Executive Compensation,” this section describes transactions, or series of related transactions, since January 1, 2025, in which:

 we have been or are to be a participant;

 the amount involved exceeds or will exceed $120,000; and

 any of our directors, executive officers or beneficial owners of more than 5% of our capital stock, or any immediate family member of, or person sharing the household with, any of these individuals (other than tenants or employees), had or will have a direct or indirect material interest.

Stockholders Agreement

On May 9, 2022, the Company, EAH and the Sponsor entered into a Stockholders Agreement relating to our initial board composition. In addition, for so long as EAH directly or indirectly through any of its affiliates holds less than 50% but at least 10% of the outstanding shares of our Common Stock, EAH will also have the right to: (i) nominate a number of directors to our board of directors at least proportional to the number of shares of Common Stock owned by EAH; and (ii) appoint a number of representatives to each committee of our board of directors that is at least proportional to the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock owned by EAH directly or indirectly through any of its affiliates. For so long as EAH directly or indirectly through any of its affiliates holds at least 20% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of Zanite, EAH will also have the right to designate the chairperson of our board of directors (who need not be a nominee of EAH).

In addition, for so long as EAH directly or indirectly through any of its affiliates holds at least 35% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, the following actions may not be taken (or agreed to be taken) by us without the prior written consent of EAH: (a) the sale of greater than 30% of our assets or voting securities (with certain exceptions); (b) the voluntary liquidation or dissolution of the Company; (c) any amendment of our organizational documents that materially and adversely affects EAH in its capacity as a stockholder; (d) the relocation of our domicile; (e) any change to our corporate name; or (f) any change to the size of our board of directors.

Registration Rights

In connection with the business combination, on May 9, 2022, we entered into the Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement with certain parties including EAH, which, among other things, obligates us to register for resale such securities that are held by the parties thereto from time to time, and provides the parties thereto certain customary demand and “piggyback” rights. Subject to certain exceptions, we will bear all registration expenses under the Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement.

Strategic Warrant Agreement

On March 16, 2022, concurrently with the execution of the Subscription Agreement to which Acciona Logistica is a party, the Company also entered into a Strategic Warrant Agreement with Acciona Logistica and EAH (the “Acciona Strategic Warrant Agreement”), pursuant to which, subject to the consummation of the business combination, the Company agreed to issue to Acciona Logistica new warrants to acquire 4,500,000 shares of Common Stock, each with an exercise price of $0.01 per share. Each warrant is exercisable for a period of five years following its issuance or first permitted exercise date. The Acciona Strategic Warrant Agreement provides for certain registration rights with respect to the resale of the shares of Common Stock underlying the warrants which are substantially similar to the registration rights provided under the Subscription Agreement. In addition, on March 16, 2022, Acciona Logistica entered into a lock-up agreement with Zanite, pursuant to which Acciona Logistica will be restricted from transferring a warrant to acquire 900,000 shares of Common Stock issued at the Closing and the shares of Common Stock issued upon the exercise of such new warrants until the date that is two years after the Closing Date.

Out of the warrants that Zanite has agreed to issue pursuant to the Acciona Strategic Warrant Agreement, (i) a warrant to acquire 900,000 shares of Common Stock was issued and became exercisable at the Closing, (ii) warrants to acquire up to 3,600,000 shares of Common Stock will be issued upon the achievement of certain UAM Business milestones, including upon achievement of certain vertiport operation thresholds and upon receipt of the first type certification for eVTOL in compliance with certain airworthiness authorities.

The Acciona Strategic Warrant Agreement also provided Acciona Logistica with the non-transferable right to designate a Class I director of the Company. María Cordón was designated as a Class I director by Acciona Logistica pursuant to the terms of the Acciona Strategic Warrant Agreement. On May 12, 2025, María Cordón informed the Company of her resignation from her position as a member of the Board and any committees of the Board, including the audit committee of the Company, effective as of that date.

Zanite

In connection with the business combination, on May 9, 2022, the Company, EAH, the Sponsor and certain other parties thereto entered into the Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement, which, among other things, obligates the Company to register for resale certain securities that are held by the parties thereto from time to time and provides certain customary demand and “piggyback” rights. The Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement contains a three-year lock-up period, pursuant to which, subject to certain exceptions, EAH, the Sponsor and certain other parties thereto are restricted from transferring the shares of Common Stock and warrants they owned immediately following the Closing until May 9, 2025. The Amended and Registration Rights Agreement amends and restates the registration rights agreement that was entered into by Zanite, the Sponsor and the other parties thereto in connection with Zanite’s IPO. Subject to certain exceptions, the Company will bear all registration expenses under the Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement.

Other Agreements

We entered into additional arrangements with Embraer and/or its affiliates, as described below.

Letter of Agreement – Warehouse

The purpose of this agreement is to use the Property as the Brazilian Subsidiary’s first EVE-100 eVTOL production facility, as part of the Company’s industrialization plan. The Property was originally donated to Embraer by the Municipality of Taubate December 2023, and Embraer will remain with part of the Property performing its own activities.

The Company received aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $230.0 million from the Registered Direct Offering, including gross proceeds of approximately $20 million with respect to the issuance to EAH and approximately $75.0 million with respect to the issuance to BNDESPAR.

BNDESPAR Letter Agreement

On August 13, 2025, concurrently with the execution of the subscription agreements related to the Registered Direct Offering, the Company also entered into a letter agreement (the “BNDESPAR Letter Agreement”) with BNDESPAR and EAH pursuant to which the Company and EAH have agreed to grant to BNDESPAR certain additional rights in connection with its agreement to purchase BDRs. Accordingly, subject to certain exceptions and so long as BNDESPAR beneficially owns common stock (including in the form of BDRs) equal to 2% or more of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock, it shall have: (i) the right to designate for nomination one Class I director, who shall satisfy the Company’s qualification and compliance standards, from the closing of the Registered Direct Offering and until the end of the three-year term of directors appointed at the annual meeting of stockholders to be held in 2026; (ii) tag-along rights with respect to any sale of shares of common stock by EAH representing (x) more than 10% of the then issued and outstanding shares of common stock or (y) any number of shares of common stock the sale of which would result in EAH ceasing to be the largest beneficial owner of the then issued and outstanding shares of common stock; and (iii) the right to purchase, on a pro rata basis, such number of equity securities in any new issuance of equity securities for cash as would be necessary for it to maintain its then-current percentage ownership of shares of common stock, on a fully diluted basis, on the same terms and conditions as offered to other investors in such new issuance, provided that EAH remains the largest beneficial owner of the then issued and outstanding shares of common stock.

Letter of Agreement – Industrialization

On July 18, 2024, Eve Sub entered into a letter of agreement (“LoA”) with Embraer, pursuant to which Embraer agreed to provide support services related to the development and structuring of industrialization processes and procedures in connection with the Company’s EVE‑100 eVTOL aircraft program, including support related to production organization certification activities. The LoA provides for the reimbursement by Eve Sub of costs and expenses incurred by Embraer in performing such services.

Policy Concerning Related Person Transactions

Our board of directors adopted a written policy, which we refer to as the related person transactions policy, for the review and approval or ratification of related person transactions. A “related person transaction” is a transaction, arrangement, or relationship in which we or any of our subsidiaries were, are or will be a participant, the amount of which involved exceeds $120,000, and in which any related person had, has or will have a direct or indirect material interest. A “related person” means:

 any person who is, or at any time since the beginning of the Company’s last fiscal year was, a director or executive officer of the Company or a nominee to become a director of the Company;

 any person who is known to the Company to own of record or to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of any class of the Company’s voting securities at the time of occurrence or existence of the related person transaction;

 any immediate family member of any of the foregoing persons, which means any child, stepchild, parent, stepparent, spouse, sibling, mother-in-law, father-in-law, son-in-law, daughter-in-law, brother-in-law or sister-in-law of a director, executive officer or a beneficial owner of more than 5% of our voting stock, and any person (other than a tenant or employee) sharing the household of such director, executive officer or beneficial owner of more than 5% of our voting stock; and

 any firm, corporation or other entity in which any of the foregoing persons is employed or is a partner or principal or in a similar position or in which such person has a 5% or greater beneficial ownership interest.

We have policies and procedures designed to minimize potential conflicts of interest arising from any dealings we may have with our affiliates and to provide appropriate procedures for the disclosure of any real or potential conflicts of interest that may exist from time to time. Specifically, pursuant to our Audit Committee charter, the Audit Committee has the responsibility to review related person transactions. Under the terms of the related person transactions policy, certain related person transactions have standing pre-approval by the Audit Committee, even if the aggregate amount involved will exceed $120,000, including any transaction that is effected pursuant to any existing agreement in effect as of May 9, 2022, between the Company (including any of its subsidiaries), on the one hand, and Embraer or one of its subsidiaries, on the other.
