Item 8.01     Other Events.

On March 25, 2021, Delek US Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) furnished a proxy statement (the “Proxy Statement”) to its stockholders for the Company’s Annual Meeting of Stockholders to be held on May 6, 2021 (the “Annual Meeting”), including a proposal to amend the Company’s 2016 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “2016 Plan”) to increase the number of shares reserved for issuance by 3,215,000 shares.

After furnishing the Proxy Statement to shareholders, the Company was informed by Institutional Shareholder Services (“ISS”) that the proposal to amend the 2016 Plan (“Proposal 4”) received an unfavorable recommendation in part because the shareholder value transfer (“SVT”) for the proposed amended and restated 2016 Plan, as determined by ISS using its proprietary model, is greater than the benchmark calculated by ISS. A component of the ISS model for SVT is the number of additional shares of common stock requested to be authorized under a plan amendment proposal such as Proposal 4.

Today, the Company is providing the following supplemental information to help shareholders evaluate Proposal 4 and to provide additional, clarifying information to assist ISS in applying its programmatic factors to evaluate the Plan.

On page 72 of the Proxy Statement, the Company reported that 4,122,926 shares were available for future issuance under the Company’s equity compensation plans as of December 31, 2020. However, of those total shares, 1,230,077 are available under the Alon 2005 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “Alon Plan”). If Proposal 4, approving additional shares under the 2016 Plan is approved, no additional awards will be granted pursuant to the Alon Plan. In addition, no awards were granted pursuant to the Alon Plan at any time following December 31, 2020 (nor will any awards be granted prior to the Annual Meeting, at which point the Company expects the Alon Plan to terminate assuming approval of Proposal 4).

The number of shares being requested pursuant to Proposal 4, the number of shares available (after deduction of the Alon Plan shares) and the number of unexercised and unvested awards that may be potentially settled in shares of Company stock, as of December 31, 2020, is:

Additional shares requested pursuant to Proposal 4: 3,215,000
Shares available for future grant under Company equity plans: 2,892,849
Shares underlying unexercised and unvested awards: 4,320,255
