PROXY STATEMENT
ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS
APRIL 28, 2025

March 7, 2025

Date, Time and Place of the Meeting

This proxy statement is furnished in connection with the solicitation of proxies by the Board of Directors (the “Board” or “Board of Directors”) of Seaboard Corporation (the “Company,” “Seaboard,” “us,” “our” or “we”) for use at the Company’s annual meeting of stockholders to be held on Monday, April 28, 2025, commencing at 9:00 a.m., local time, and at any adjournment or postponement thereof. The meeting is called for the purposes set forth in the foregoing Notice of Annual Meeting, and will be held at the Sheraton Overland Park Convention Center, 6100 College Blvd., Overland Park, Kansas. You may obtain directions to the location of the annual meeting by calling us at (913) 676-8928.

Stockholders Entitled to Vote at the Meeting

Stockholders of record as of the close of business on the February 27, 2025 record date are entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the annual meeting and at any adjournment or postponement thereof. Seaboard had 971,055 shares of common stock, $1.00 par value, outstanding and entitled to vote as of the record date. Each such share of common stock is entitled to one vote on each matter properly to come before the annual meeting. This proxy statement and the enclosed form of proxy were first sent or given to stockholders on or about March 7, 2025.

Quorum Requirement

A quorum of stockholders is necessary to hold a valid meeting. A majority of our outstanding shares of common stock on the record date, or 485,529 shares, will be needed to establish a quorum for the annual meeting. Votes cast at the annual meeting will be tabulated by persons duly appointed to act as inspectors of election and voting for the annual meeting. The inspectors of election and voting will treat shares represented by a properly signed and returned proxy as present at the annual meeting for purposes of determining a quorum, without regard to whether the proxy is marked as casting a vote or abstaining. Likewise, the inspectors will treat shares of stock represented by proxies reflecting one or more “broker non-votes” as present for purposes of determining a quorum. Broker non-votes are proxies with respect to shares held in record name by brokers, banks or other nominees, as to which (i) instructions have not been received from the beneficial owners or persons entitled to vote with respect to one or more matters; (ii) the broker, bank or other nominee does not have discretionary voting power under applicable national securities exchange rules or the instrument under which it serves in such capacity; and (iii) the record holder has indicated on the proxy card or otherwise notified Seaboard that it does not have authority to vote such shares on such matter or matters.

Items of Business to be Voted on at the Annual Meeting

Stockholders are being asked to vote on the following matters at the annual meeting:


Item Number	Matter	Our Board of Directors Recommends
1	Elect five directors to hold office until the 2026 annual meeting of stockholders and until their respective successors are duly elected and qualified	FOR EACH DIRECTOR NOMINEE
2	Ratify the appointment of KPMG LLP as the independent auditor of Seaboard for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025	FOR

We will also consider other business that properly comes before the annual meeting or any postponement or adjournment thereof.

Attending the Meeting and Voting in Person

If you plan to attend the annual meeting and vote in person, we will give you a ballot when you arrive. However, if your shares are held in the name of your broker, bank or other nominee (commonly referred to as being held in “street” name), proof of ownership may be required for you to be admitted to the meeting. A recent brokerage statement and letter from a bank or broker are examples of proof of ownership. If you want to vote your shares of common stock held in street name in person at the meeting, you will have to get a written proxy in your name from the broker, bank or other nominee who holds your shares.

Voting by Proxy

The Board of Directors solicits your proxy in the form enclosed for use at the annual meeting. You may vote your shares by completing the proxy card with your vote, signature and date, and returning it by mail in the envelope provided, or you can follow the instructions on the proxy card to cast your vote via the Internet or telephone. Any stockholder giving a proxy in accordance with the enclosed form may revoke it at any time before it is exercised. A stockholder may revoke his or her proxy by delivering to the Secretary of Seaboard a written notice of revocation or a duly executed proxy bearing a later date, or by attending the meeting and voting in person. A duly completed proxy will be voted at the annual meeting in accordance with the instructions of the stockholder. Where a stockholder’s voting instructions are not specified in the completed proxy, the shares represented by the proxy will be voted in accordance with the recommendations of the Board of Directors as follows: “for” the election of the nominees for director listed herein; and “for” ratification of the selection of KPMG LLP as independent auditors for 2025. The Board of Directors does not know of any matters that will be brought before the meeting other than those referred to in the Notice of Annual Meeting. However, if any other matter properly comes before the meeting, it is intended that the persons named in the enclosed form of proxy, or their substitutes acting thereunder, will vote on such matter in accordance with their discretion and judgment. If your shares of common stock are held in street name, you will receive instructions from your broker, bank or other nominee that you must follow in order to have your shares voted. Seaboard will bear all expenses in connection with the solicitation of proxies, including preparing, assembling and mailing this proxy statement. After the initial mailing of this proxy statement, proxies may be solicited by mail, telephone, facsimile transmission or personally by directors, officers, employees or agents of Seaboard. Brokerage houses and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries will be requested to forward soliciting materials to beneficial owners of shares held of record by them, and their reasonable out-of-pocket expenses will be paid by Seaboard.

Vote Required

With respect to the election of directors (Item 1), you may vote “FOR” or “WITHHOLD” authority to vote for each of the nominees for the Board. A favorable plurality of votes cast (a number greater than those cast for any other candidates) is necessary to elect members of the Board of Directors. “Withhold” votes and broker non-votes are not considered votes cast for the foregoing purpose. Accordingly, “withhold” or broker non-votes as to the election of directors will not affect the election of the candidates receiving the plurality of votes and will have no effect on the election of the nominees.

With respect to the ratification of KPMG LLP as our independent auditors (Item 2), you may vote “FOR,” “AGAINST,” or “ABSTAIN.” This proposal requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares having voting power in person or represented by proxy at the meeting. Shares represented by broker non-votes for purposes of this proposal are treated as not being present, while abstentions are treated as being present but not voting in the affirmative. Accordingly, the effect of broker non-votes is only to reduce the number of shares considered to be present for the consideration of this proposal and will have no effect on the voting outcome, while abstentions will have the same effect as votes against this proposal. Brokers, banks and other nominees may use their discretionary voting authority with respect to the ratification of our independent auditors, so no broker non-votes are expected for this proposal.

PRINCIPAL STOCKHOLDERS

The Board of Directors recommends that you vote “FOR” the election as directors of the persons listed above.

BOARD OF DIRECTORS INFORMATION

Meetings of the Board

The Board of Directors held seven meetings in fiscal 2024, three of which were telephonic meetings and four of which were in person. Other actions of the Board of Directors were taken by unanimous written consent, as needed. Each director attended more than 75 percent of the meetings of the Board of Directors held while in office and of the meetings held by all committees of the Board on which he or she served during 2024.

Seaboard does not have any policy requiring directors to attend Seaboard’s annual meeting of stockholders, although generally the directors have attended Seaboard’s annual stockholders’ meetings. All directors attended the 2024 annual meeting in person or telephonically.

Controlled Company

Seaboard is a “controlled company,” as defined in the rules of the NYSE American, because more than 50 percent of the voting power of Seaboard is owned by the Seaboard Flour Entities. As such, Seaboard is exempted from many of the requirements regarding board of director committees and independence. The members of our Board of Directors who are independent within the meaning of the NYSE American listing standards are David A. Adamsen, Douglas W. Baena and Frances B. Shifman. The remaining members of our Board of Directors are not independent within the meaning of the NYSE American listing standards and, therefore, they would not qualify as independent directors for purposes of serving on a compensation, nominating committee or audit committee under applicable NYSE American committee independence requirements. The independent directors meet on a regular basis as often as necessary to fulfill their responsibilities, including at least annually in executive session without the presence of non-independent directors and management.

Board Leadership Structure and Role in Risk Oversight

Robert L. Steer serves as Seaboard’s principal executive officer. Ellen S. Bresky serves as director and Chairwoman of the Board and is the beneficial owner of approximately 73.5 percent of Seaboard. Beginning in the second quarter of 2024, Seaboard no longer has a lead independent director. Seaboard believes that Ms. Bresky has a sufficient vested interest in Seaboard on the basis of her beneficial stock ownership position and that Mr. Steer, who has been with Seaboard for more than 38 years, including nine years in his former role as Executive Vice President and CFO, has the experience necessary to lead Seaboard as the principal executive officer. The Board of Directors believes that the separation of the positions of Chairwoman of the Board and principal executive officer is the appropriate leadership structure for Seaboard at this time. This structure recognizes the nature of Seaboard as a “controlled company,” and, therefore, provides the Bresky family with appropriate influence over the Company.

The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors provides risk oversight of Seaboard with respect to the audit of Seaboard’s financial statements, Seaboard’s internal audit function and any financial matters reported to Seaboard’s Senior Vice President, Audit Services or other Seaboard representative. The Audit Committee administers this oversight function through Audit Committee meetings and periodic meetings in private with Seaboard’s auditors, KPMG LLP, and Seaboard’s Senior Vice President, Audit Services. The Board of Directors does not have any other significant oversight function, aside from performance of the Board of Director general oversight function through periodic meetings. The Board of Directors does not believe that its role in risk oversight of Seaboard has any significant effect on the Board’s leadership structure.

Committees of the Board

Seaboard’s Board of Directors has established an Audit Committee. As a “controlled company,” as defined in the rules of the NYSE American, Seaboard is not required to have, and Seaboard’s Board of Directors has not established, a nominating or compensation committee or any other committee of the Board performing similar functions.

Audit Committee. Seaboard’s Board of Directors has established an Audit Committee comprised solely of independent directors within the meaning of the listing standards of NYSE American and applicable SEC rules. The members of the Audit Committee are David A. Adamsen, Douglas W. Baena and Frances B. Shifman. Mr. Baena is Chairman of the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee selects and retains independent auditors and assists the Board in its oversight of the integrity of Seaboard’s financial statements, including the performance of our independent auditors in their audit of our annual financial statements. The Audit Committee meets with management and the independent auditors, as may be required. The independent auditors have full and free access to the Audit Committee, without the presence of management. The Board of Directors has determined that Douglas W. Baena is an “audit committee financial expert” and is “independent,” within the meaning of the listing standards of NYSE American and applicable SEC rules. The Audit Committee held four meetings in fiscal year 2024, two of which were telephonic meetings and two of which were in person. The Audit Committee Charter is available on Seaboard’s website at www.seaboardcorp.com.

Director Nominations

The Board of Directors believes it is not necessary to have a separate nominating committee because of the low turnover of Board of Director seats and because the entire Board of Directors participates in the consideration of director nominees. There currently is no charter that establishes procedures for the Board’s consideration of director nominees. The Board believes that it should be comprised of directors with varied, complementary backgrounds, and that directors should, at a minimum, have expertise that may be useful to Seaboard. Directors should also possess the highest personal and professional ethics, and should be willing and able to devote the required amount of time to Seaboard’s business. In determining whether a director should be retained and stand for re-election, the Board also considers such member’s performance and contribution to the Board during his or her tenure with the Board. Seaboard’s policy is to consider nominees who are submitted by stockholders on a case-by-case basis. All nominees, including those submitted by stockholders, will be evaluated using generally the same methods and criteria, although those methods and criteria are not standardized and may vary from time to time. The Board does not have any policy with respect to diversity and does not consider diversity in identifying nominees for Director.

Communication with the Board

The Board of Directors does not provide a process for stockholders to send communications to the Board because it believes that the process available under applicable federal securities laws for stockholders to submit proposals for consideration at the annual meeting is adequate.

Compensation of Directors

In the fiscal year 2024, the Company provided the following cash compensation to directors for their service as a director:

●

$37,500 quarterly retainer for the Chairwoman of the Board;

●

$20,000 quarterly retainer (other than for the Chairwoman of the Board);

●

Additional $12,500 quarterly retainer for the lead independent director for the first quarter of 2024;

●

Additional $10,000 per quarter for the Chairman of the Audit Committee, which increased from $2,500 per quarter in the second quarter of 2024; and

●

Additional $2,500 per quarter for service on the Audit Committee of the Board.

In addition to Ms. Bresky’s cash compensation for her service as a director, she is also given the right to use Seaboard’s airplane for up to 25 hours of flight time per year for personal use as long as she continues to serve in such role. The Company does not provide any equity compensation to its directors.

The following table shows the compensation received by each member of our Board of Directors for service on the Board in 2024.

(1)

In addition to Ms. Bresky’s cash compensation for her service as a director as stated above, Ms. Bresky’s compensation also consisted of personal use of Seaboard’s airplane (valuing this benefit based on the number of miles flown and the Standard Industry Fare Level published by the Department of Transportation). She used 21 hours of Seaboard’s airplane for personal use in 2024.

(2)	In connection with the change in Mr. Baena’s role on the Board, beginning in the second quarter of 2024, Mr. Baena no longer received the additional $12,500 quarterly retainer as lead independent director.

amounts for 2024 are as follows: R. Steer, $139,840; D. Rankin, $29,320; E. Gonzalez, $92,040; J. Bresky, $38,840; and D. Becker, $38,052.

Also included in All Other Compensation are Seaboard’s contributions to its 401(k) Retirement Savings Plan on behalf of the Named Executive Officers, amounts paid for disability and life insurance and individual perquisites, including amounts paid as an automobile allowance (valuing this benefit on an average fair market value based on the IRS lease guidelines using the manufacturer’s suggested retail price less 8 percent), fuel card usage, personal usage of Seaboard’s airplane (valuing this benefit based on the number of miles flown and the Standard Industry Fare Level published by the Department of Transportation), and a gross-up for related taxes. With respect to the above-stated items, All Other Compensation includes the following amounts for 2024: (a) an automobile allowance of $30,000 for each of the Named Executive Officers; and (b) an airplane benefit of $35,192 for R. Steer. Reimbursement for taxes owed on the above-stated items total as follows for each of the Named Executive Officers for 2024: R. Steer, $44,530; D. Rankin, $26,188; E. Gonzalez, $24,286; J. Bresky, $34,947; and D. Becker, $23,080.

(5)	J. Bresky was appointed to President of Seaboard Overseas and Trading Group on January 9, 2023.

PAY RATIO

Pursuant to a mandate of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the “Dodd-Frank Act”), set forth below for 2024 is a comparison of (i) the total compensation of R. Steer, Seaboard’s Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”); and (ii) the median of the annual total compensation of all employees of Seaboard and its consolidated subsidiaries (other than R. Steer). The median of the annual total compensation and the pay ratio described below are reasonable estimates calculated by Seaboard in a manner consistent with applicable SEC regulations.

In 2024, the annual total compensation of R. Steer was $6,183,621 and the median of the annual total compensation of all employees of Seaboard and its consolidated subsidiaries (other than R. Steer) was $47,838, and thus the ratio of the annual total compensation of R. Steer to the median of the annual total compensation of all of Seaboard’s employees was 129 to 1. Seaboard’s “median employee” worked in Seaboard’s live hog operations in Iowa.

To determine the median of the annual total compensation of all of Seaboard’s employees, as well as to determine the annual total compensation of Seaboard’s “median employee” and Seaboard’s Chief Executive Officer, Seaboard used the following methodology and made the following material assumptions, adjustments and estimates:

1.In 2023, Seaboard selected October 1, 2023, which is within the last three months of 2023, as the date upon which it would identify the “median employee” to allow sufficient time to identify the median employee given the global scope of its operations. To identify the “median employee,” Seaboard included all worldwide employees as of October 1, 2023, whether employed on a full-time, part-time or seasonal basis.

2.Seaboard determined that gross wages of such employees for the month of August 2023 was a reasonable compensation measure to determine the median employee, given (i) Seaboard’s large, international workforce; (ii) the diversity of countries and compensation structures in which Seaboard operates; and (iii) the high employee turnover in some of Seaboard’s operations. Seaboard believes that the use of this partial year period was appropriate as it confirmed that the period was reflective of the annual total compensation of all of its employees and would not significantly impact the identity of the median employee.

3.With respect to employees hired in the months of August and September 2023, and thus not having a full month of wages, Seaboard estimated their wages by (x) grossing up actual partial gross wages to reflect an entire month’s worth of wages based upon each employee’s status as full-time, part-time or seasonal employee; or (y) using the average wages received by employees performing a similar function (and in the same status, i.e., full-time, part-time or seasonal) at the same location during the month. All wages were converted into U.S. dollar equivalents using the respective exchange rates as of August 31, 2023. Seaboard did not make any cost-of-living adjustments in identifying the median employee.

4.Once Seaboard identified its median employee, Seaboard included the elements of such employee’s compensation for 2024 determined in accordance with the requirements of Item 402(c)(2)(x) of Regulation S-K. With respect to the annual total compensation of the CEO, Seaboard used the amount reported in the “Total” column of its 2024 Summary Compensation Table in this proxy statement, which likewise was calculated in accordance with those same requirements.

EMPLOYMENT ARRANGEMENTS
WITH NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS

Each Named Executive Officer (other than J. Bresky and D. Becker) is a party to an Employment Agreement with Seaboard.

The Employment Agreements for R. Steer and D. Rankin have a term of one year and extend annually for one-year terms, unless not renewed or otherwise terminated by Seaboard. As of December 31, 2024, the Employment Agreement for E. Gonzalez has a term of three years, expiring December 31, 2027, unless not renewed or otherwise terminated by Seaboard. J. Bresky and D. Becker do not have employment agreements with Seaboard.

The Employment Agreements provide for payment of the following initial Base Salary for each applicable current Named Executive Officer:


	Initial Base Salary
Robert L. Steer	$	1,000,000
David H. Rankin	$	425,000
Edward A. Gonzalez	$	420,000

The Employment Agreement for R. Steer provides that his annual bonus will be a minimum of $2,275,000. The Employment Agreement for D. Rankin provides for a target annual bonus of 131.25 percent of his base salary, and a maximum annual bonus of 175 percent of his base salary, with a minimum annual bonus of $300,000. The Employment Agreement for E. Gonzalez provides for a minimum annual bonus of $400,000.

Pursuant to the Employment Agreement of R. Steer, the Company may elect to contribute the portion of the annual bonus payable to him in excess of $1,000,000 to his account under the Seaboard Corporation Post-2018 Deferred Compensation Plan. Pursuant to the Employment Agreement of D. Rankin, the Company may elect to contribute any portion of the annual bonus payable to him which would cause his compensation to be in excess of $1,000,000 and thus non-deductible under Internal Revenue Code Section 162(m) (“Code Section 162(m)”) to his respective accounts under the Post-2018 Deferred Compensation Plan.

Payments Upon Certain Events

The Employment Agreements each provide for the payment of severance upon the termination of employment in certain circumstances. Following is a summary of the amounts which would be paid by Seaboard to the applicable Named Executive Officers if, on December 31, 2024, his employment was involuntarily terminated without “Cause,” or if he resigned for “Good Reason,” as those terms are defined in the Employment Agreement for each such Named Executive Officer. Seaboard is not a party to employment agreements with J. Bresky or D. Becker and, therefore, they are not included in the table below. Additional amounts payable to each Named Executive Officer under benefit plans upon additional events are described below under “Benefit Plans.”

Pursuant to the Employment Agreements, “Cause” means (i) a material breach by Named Executive Officer of any provision of the Employment Agreement; (ii) a material violation by Named Executive Officer of any Company policy resulting in material injury to the Company; (iii) Named Executive Officer’s willful misconduct or gross negligence that has caused or is reasonably expected to result in material injury to the business, reputation or prospects of the Company or any of its Affiliates; (iv) Named Executive Officer’s material fraud or misappropriation of funds; or (v) the commission by Named Executive Officer of a felony involving moral turpitude; and “Good Reason” means a resignation by Named Executive Officer from his employment with the Company within one hundred eighty (180) days following the initial occurrence of any one or more of the following events: (i) a material diminution in the Named Executive Officer’s authority, duties or responsibilities; (ii) a material change in the geographic location where Named Executive Officer primarily performs his services; or (iii) any other material breach by the Company of any material provision of the Employment Agreement.

(1)	The installments are payable over 12 months.

(2)	The lump sum will be payable one year after the termination of employment.

The Board of Directors has approved for each of the Named Executive Officers the right to use Seaboard’s airplane for personal use, which may be used for so long as each such Named Executive Officer continues to serve in such role. The allotment of flight time hours per year for personal use for the Named Executive Officers is as follows: up to 25 hours for R. Steer and up to 10 hours for each of the remaining Named Executive Officers. Seaboard also pays each of the Named Executive Officers for the incidental fees and expenses incurred related to the flights, including ground transportation, and a “tax gross-up” of the estimated federal and state income taxes each will incur as a consequence of this benefit.

BENEFIT PLANS

409A Executive Retirement Plan

The Seaboard Corporation 409A Executive Retirement Plan (the “Executive Retirement Plan”) provides retirement benefits for a select group of the officers and managers, including certain Named Executive Officers, other than E. Gonzalez and J. Bresky. The Executive Retirement Plan was amended and restated effective January 1, 2013. The Executive Retirement Plan gives credit for all years of service with Seaboard, both before and after becoming a participant. For years of service before becoming a participant (pre-participation service), the benefit is equal to 0.65 percent of the final average remuneration (salary plus bonus) of the participant, plus 0.50 percent of final average remuneration of the participant in excess of Social Security Covered Compensation, all multiplied by the participant’s pre-participation service. For years of service after becoming a participant (post-participation service), the benefit is equal to 2.5 percent of the final average remuneration of the participant, multiplied by the participant’s years of post-participation service. The amendment to the Executive Retirement Plan effective January 1, 2013 limits, and in some circumstances establishes, the final average remuneration and limits the years of post-participation service eligible to calculate the benefit. The benefit amount determined by the formula is reduced by the following: (i) the amount such participant has accrued under the Seaboard Corporation Pension Plan (described below); and (ii) the benefit earned under the Executive Retirement Plan from 1994 through 1996 that resulted in cash payments from the plan that were based on the cost to purchase such benefit. Benefits under the Executive Retirement Plan are currently unfunded. As of December 31, 2024, all of the participating Named Executive Officers were fully vested, as defined in the Executive Retirement Plan. For the accrued benefit as of December 31, 2012 (the “Pre-2013 Benefit”), the ordinary form of payment of the benefit is pursuant to a “Single Lump Sum Payment,” which is equivalent in value to the benefit described above, payable in “Single Life Annuity” form. Under certain circumstances, the Executive Retirement Plan allows for optional forms of payment of the Pre-2013 Benefit. If the Pre-2013 Benefit will be paid pursuant to a lump sum, then payment will be made upon the earlier of: (i) the seventh month following separation from service; (ii) any change of control of Seaboard; or (iii) death or disability. If the Pre-2013 Benefit will be paid pursuant to an annuity, payment will begin in the seventh month following the month in which the participant has a separation from service, or at age 62, if later; or pursuant to a lump sum, in the event of the death or disability of the participant, or any change of control of Seaboard. The portion of the benefit which accrues after December 31, 2012 (“Post-2012 Benefit”) will be calculated as a lump sum on a date specified in the plan, and this balance will be increased or decreased based on the return of certain investments selected by the participant and paid upon the earlier of: (i) the participant’s separation from service; (ii) a change of control; or (iii) the death or disability of the participant. For participants who are not covered employees under Code Section 162(m), the Post-2012 Benefit will be paid as a lump sum on the earlier of: (i) the date specified in the plan; (ii) the seventh month following separation of service; (iii) any change of control of Seaboard; or (iv) death or disability. The Post-2012 Benefit for R. Steer and D. Becker was paid in 2017 and 2019, respectively. The table in the Seaboard Corporation Pension Plan section below sets forth estimates of the present value as of December 31, 2024 of the accumulated benefits that would be payable to the participating Named Executive Officers under the Executive Retirement Plan at the earliest unreduced age (i.e., age 62), which estimates are calculated based on the assumptions described in Footnote 9 of Seaboard’s 2024 financial statements contained in its Annual Report.

Pension Plans

Seaboard provides defined benefits upon retirement for its domestic salaried and clerical employees who began employment on or before December 31, 2013 through the Seaboard Corporation Pension Plan (the “Corporation Plan”) or the Seaboard Marine Pension Plan (the “Marine Plan”) (collectively the “Plans”). The Named Executive Officers, other than E. Gonzalez and J. Bresky, participate in the Corporation Plan, and E. Gonzalez participates in the Marine Plan. The benefits under the Corporation Plan and the Marine Plan are the same. Benefits under the Plans are generally based upon the number of years of service and a percentage of final average remuneration (salary plus bonus), subject to limitations under applicable federal law. As of December 31, 2024, all of the participating Named Executive Officers were fully vested, as defined in the Plans. Under the Plans, the benefit payment for a married participant is pursuant to a “50 Percent Joint and Survivor Annuity.” This means the participant will receive a monthly annuity benefit for his/her lifetime, and an eligible surviving spouse will receive a lifetime annuity equal to 50 percent of the participant’s benefit. The payment of the benefit for an unmarried participant is pursuant to a “Single Life Annuity.” The Plans allow for optional forms of payment under certain circumstances. The normal retirement age under the Plans is age 65. However, unreduced benefits are available at age 62 with five years of service. The Pension Benefits table below shows the present value of the accumulated benefits that would be payable under the Plans at the earliest unreduced commencement age (i.e., age 62).

Each of the participating Named Executive Officers (other than D. Rankin and D. Becker) is 100 percent vested under a particular defined benefit (“Benefit”) that was frozen on December 31, 1993 as part of the Plans. A definitive actuarial determination of the benefit amounts was made in 1995. The annual amounts payable upon retirement after attaining age 62 under this Benefit are as follows: R. Steer, $15,490 and E. Gonzalez, $2,643. Under the Plans, the payment of this benefit is pursuant to a “Ten-Year Certain and Continuous Annuity.” This means the participant would receive a monthly annuity benefit for his/her lifetime and, if the participant dies while in the ten-year certain period, the balance of the ten-year benefit would be paid to his/her designated beneficiary. If the participant dies while employed by Seaboard or after retirement, but before the commencement of benefits, monthly payments would be made to the participant’s beneficiary in the form of a 100 percent joint and survivor benefit. The Plans allow for optional forms of payment under certain circumstances.

The following table sets forth the Years of Credited Service, the Present Value of the Accumulated Benefit and the Payments During the Last Fiscal Year, pursuant to the specified Plans for each of the participating Named Executive Officers.

Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation Plans

Post-2018 Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation Plan

Effective January 1, 2019, Seaboard adopted the Seaboard Corporation Post-2018 Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation Plan, which was amended and restated effective January 1, 2023 (the “Post-2018 Deferred Compensation Plan”), pursuant to which a select group of management or highly-compensated employees may defer salary and bonus, and/or be credited with a company contribution made at the discretion of Seaboard, to be paid by Seaboard at a later time, all in accordance with applicable ERISA and income tax laws and regulations. No income taxes are payable by the participants on amounts deferred or contributed by Seaboard pursuant to the Post-2018 Deferred Compensation Plan until they are paid to the participant. The Post-2018 Deferred Compensation Plan also provides for a Company contribution to be credited to participants in an amount equal to Seaboard’s 401(k) Retirement Savings Plan employer matching contribution percentage, up to 4 percent for 2024, of each participant’s deferral contributions pursuant to such plan.

Elective contributions by participants and Company contributions to the Post-2018 Deferred Compensation Plan, and the earnings thereon, are generally payable on the future date selected by the participant, or if earlier, upon the participant’s

retirement; however, with respect to the Named Executive Officers and any other “covered employees” under Code Section 162(m), payment of such amounts will be deferred until the earlier of (i) the first taxable year that Seaboard anticipates, or should reasonably anticipate, that if the amount were distributed during such year, the deduction of such payment would not be barred by application of Code Section 162(m); or (ii) as soon as administratively feasible after the beginning of the sixth anniversary of the participant’s separation from service (regardless of such payment’s non-deductibility). In no event will a deferred amount be paid earlier than the first day of the seventh month following the month of the participant’s separation from service.

Following are amounts deferred and all company contributions credited to the participating Named Executive Officers under the Post-2018 Deferred Compensation Plan. These amounts are included in the amounts reported in the Summary Compensation Table above.

Seaboard Corporation Long-Term Incentive Plan

Effective January 1, 2022, Seaboard adopted the Seaboard Corporation Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “LTI Plan”) which provides retirement benefits for a select group of officers and managers. Pursuant to the LTI Plan, annually, each participant may receive an award, which is in the form of a contribution to a bookkeeping account. Participants have the option to invest the account balance in various investment options, and the account balance is credited with the earnings and losses based on the performance of the investment options selected. An award to a participant vests upon the first to occur of the following (but at least five years after the participant’s first award was received): (a) three years after the date the award was granted; (b) upon the participant’s death or disability; (c) upon a change of control; or (d) upon the participant reaching age 60 (or upon receipt, if awarded when the participant is age 60 or older). The account balance with respect to each award that is vested is paid to a participant as soon as administratively feasible after the first to occur of the following (a) seven months after the participant’s retirement or separation from service; (b) upon the participant’s death or disability; or (c) upon a change of control. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to the Named Executive Officers and any other “covered employees” under Code Section 162(m), payment of the account balances may be deferred until the earlier of (i) the first taxable year that Seaboard anticipates, or should reasonably anticipate, that if the amount were distributed during such year, the deduction of such payment would not be barred by application of Code Section 162(m); or (ii) as soon as administratively feasible after the beginning of the sixth anniversary of the participant’s retirement or separation from service (regardless of such payment’s non-deductibility).

Following are the amounts awarded to the participating Named Executive Officers under the LTI Plan. These amounts are included in the amounts reported in the Summary Compensation Table above in the year in which the applicable award vests.

(1)	Represents awards made by Seaboard pursuant to the LTI Plan for service in 2024. J. Bresky’s award remains subject to the vesting conditions set forth in such plan and, therefore, the amount underlying the award will not be included in the Summary Compensation Table above until such award vests.

(2)	J. Bresky’s award under the LTI Plan for service in 2024 was made in 2025 and therefore is not reflected in the aggregate balance at the end of the last fiscal year end in the table above.

Prior Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation Plan

Through 2018, each of the Named Executive Officers (other than E. Gonzalez and J. Bresky) was a participant in the Seaboard Corporation Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation Plan (the “Prior Deferred Compensation Plan”), which gave a select group of management or highly-compensated employees the right to defer salary and bonus to be paid by Seaboard at a later time, and to be credited with Company contributions in an amount equal to Seaboard’s 401(k) Retirement Savings Plan matching percentage of each participant’s deferral pursuant to the Plan, all in accordance with applicable ERISA and income tax laws and regulations.

Effective January 1, 2019, Seaboard amended the Prior Deferred Compensation Plan to “freeze” the plan such that no additional contributions, whether in the form of employee elective deferrals or employer contributions (i.e., “Company Contributions” under the plan), and relating to compensation earned after December 31, 2018, were made to the Prior Deferred Compensation Plan. All plan accounts in the Prior Deferred Compensation Plan existing as of December 31, 2019 continue to experience an investment return and are distributed in accordance with the plan and any participant investment or deferral election as in effect on December 31, 2019.

Following are the earnings on the account balances for the participating Named Executive Officers under the Prior Deferred Compensation Plan.
