Who May Vote

Only holders of record of our Class A Common Stock, which we refer to as Class A Stock, and holders of record of our Class B Convertible Common Stock, which we refer to as Class B Stock, at the close of business on February 23, 2018, or the Record Date, will be entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Annual Meeting. On the Record Date, 185,651,147 shares of Class A Stock and 34,450,000 shares of Class B Stock were issued and outstanding. Each share of Class A Stock entitles the holder to cast one vote on each matter to be considered at the Annual Meeting and each share of Class B Stock entitles the holder to cast ten votes on each matter to be considered at the Annual Meeting. Holders of Class A Stock and holders of Class B Stock will vote together as a single class on all matters. Stockholders are not allowed to cumulate their votes in the election of the directors. Holders of our Class C Common Stock, which we refer to as Class C Stock, have no voting power as to any items of business that will be voted on at the Annual Meeting.

1

What Constitutes a Quorum

Stockholders may not take action at a meeting unless there is a quorum present at the meeting. Holders of Class A Stock and Class B Stock entitled to cast a majority of all the votes entitled to be cast at the Annual Meeting, represented in person or by proxy, constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at the Annual Meeting.

Vote Required

The election of each director requires a plurality of the votes cast at the Annual Meeting. The approval of our executive compensation and the ratification of the appointment of our independent registered public accounting firm each requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast at the Annual Meeting.

Voting Process

Shares for which proxies are properly executed and returned will be voted at the Annual Meeting in accordance with the directions given or, in the absence of directions, will be voted “FOR” the election of the nine nominees to the Board of Directors named in this Proxy Statement, “FOR” the advisory approval of our executive compensation and “FOR” the ratification of the appointment of our independent registered public accounting firm. It is not expected that any other matters will be brought before the Annual Meeting. If, however, other matters are properly presented, the persons named as proxies in the proxy card will vote in accordance with their discretion with respect to such matters.

The manner in which your shares may be voted depends on how your shares are held. If you are the record holder of your shares, meaning you appear as the stockholder of your shares on the records of our stock transfer agent, you vote your shares directly through one of the methods described below. If you own shares in street name, meaning you are a beneficial owner with your shares held through a bank or brokerage firm, you instruct your bank or brokerage firm how to vote your shares through the methods described on the voting instruction form provided by your bank or brokerage firm.

How to Vote

Holders of our Class A Stock and Class B Stock as of the Record Date may vote their shares by one of the following methods.

Internet

To vote your shares by Internet, please visit the website listed on your Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials, or the enclosed proxy card or voting instruction form, and follow the on-screen instructions. You will need the control number included on your Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials, proxy card or voting instruction form. If you vote by Internet, you do not need to mail your proxy card or voting instruction form.

Telephone

If you received a paper proxy card or voting instruction form and would like to vote your shares by telephone, please follow the instructions on the proxy card or voting instruction form. If you vote by telephone, you do not need to mail your proxy card or voting instruction form.

Mail

If you received a paper proxy card or voting instruction form and would like to vote your shares by mail, please follow the instructions on the proxy card or voting instruction form. Please be sure to sign

2

and date your proxy card. If you do not sign your proxy card, your votes cannot be counted. Mail your proxy card or voting instruction form in the pre-addressed, postage-paid envelope.

In Person

You may also attend the Annual Meeting and vote in person. If you own your stock in street name and wish to vote your shares at the Annual Meeting, you must obtain a “legal proxy” from the bank or brokerage firm that holds your shares. You should contact your bank or brokerage account representative to obtain a legal proxy. However, to ensure your shares are represented, we ask that you vote your shares by Internet, telephone or mail, even if you plan to attend the meeting.

Attendance at the Annual Meeting

Holders of our Class A Stock, Class B Stock and Class C Stock may attend the Annual Meeting in person, although holders of Class C Stock will not be entitled to vote on any matter to be considered at the Annual Meeting. If you are the record holder of your shares, you will be required to present a form of photo identification for admission to the Annual Meeting. If you own your stock in street name, you may attend the Annual Meeting in person provided that you present a form of photo identification and proof of ownership, such as a recent brokerage statement or a letter from a bank or broker. Directions to the Annual Meeting are available at http://investor.underarmour.com/annual-proxy.cfm.

Revocation

If you are the record holder of your shares, you may revoke or cancel a previously granted proxy at any time before the Annual Meeting by delivering to the Secretary of Under Armour at 2601 Port Covington Drive, Baltimore, Maryland 21230, a written notice of revocation or a duly executed proxy bearing a later date, or by attending the Annual Meeting and voting in person. Any stockholder owning shares in street name may change or revoke previously given voting instructions by contacting the bank or brokerage firm holding the shares or by obtaining a legal proxy from the bank or brokerage firm and voting in person at the Annual Meeting. Your personal attendance at the meeting does not revoke your proxy. Your last vote, prior to or at the Annual Meeting, is the vote that will be counted.

Abstentions and Broker Non-Votes

Shares held by stockholders present at the Annual Meeting in person or by proxy who do not vote on a matter and ballots or proxies marked “abstain” or “withheld” on a matter will be counted as present at the meeting for quorum purposes, but will not be considered votes cast on the matter.

If your shares are held in street name through a bank or broker and you do not provide voting instructions before the Annual Meeting, your bank or broker may vote your shares under certain circumstances in accordance with NYSE rules that govern banks and brokers. These circumstances include “routine matters,” such as the ratification of the appointment of our independent registered public accounting firm described in this Proxy Statement. Thus, if you do not vote your shares with respect to these matters, your bank or broker may vote your shares on your behalf or leave your shares unvoted.

The election of directors and the advisory approval of our executive compensation are not considered “routine matters.” Thus, if you do not vote your shares with respect to any of these matters, your bank or broker may not vote the shares, and your shares will be left unvoted on the matter.

“Broker non-votes” (which are shares represented by proxies, received from a bank or broker, that are not voted on a matter because the bank or broker did not receive voting instructions from the

3

beneficial owner) will be treated the same as abstentions, which means they will be present at the Annual Meeting and counted toward the quorum, but they will not be counted as votes cast on the matter. Abstentions and broker non-votes will not have an effect on any of the proposals at this meeting because they will not be counted as votes cast.

Householding

The SEC permits us to send a single set of proxy materials to any household at which two or more stockholders reside, unless contrary instructions have been received, but only if we provide advance notice and follow certain procedures. This process, referred to as householding, reduces the volume of duplicate information and reduces printing and mailing expenses. We have not instituted householding for stockholders of record. Certain brokerage firms may have instituted householding for beneficial owners of our common stock held through brokerage firms. If your family has multiple accounts holding our shares, you may have already received a householding notice from your broker. Please contact your broker directly if you have any questions or require additional copies of the proxy materials. The broker will arrange for delivery of a separate copy of this Proxy Statement or our Annual Report promptly upon your written or oral request. You may decide at any time to revoke your decision to household and begin receiving multiple copies.

Solicitation of Proxies

We pay the cost of soliciting proxies for the Annual Meeting. We solicit by mail and arrangements are made with brokerage houses and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries to send proxy materials to beneficial owners. Upon request, we will reimburse them for their reasonable expenses. In addition, our directors, officers and employees may solicit proxies, either personally or by telephone, facsimile or written or electronic mail. Stockholders are requested to return their proxies without delay.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE AND RELATED MATTERS

Board of Directors and Board Leadership Structure

Our Board of Directors has nine directors, eight of which (approximately 89%) are independent non-management directors.

Kevin Plank currently serves as Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board for our company. We believe combining the roles of chairman and chief executive officer is currently the appropriate leadership model for our company as it provides for clear accountability and efficient and effective leadership of our business. As our founder and our largest stockholder, with beneficial ownership of approximately 16% of our outstanding stock and majority voting control of our company, we believe Mr. Plank is the appropriate person to lead both our Board and the management of our business.

Lead Director

To further strengthen our corporate governance structure and provide independent oversight of our company, the Board has appointed Mr. Krongard as our lead independent director. As Lead Director, Mr. Krongard acts as a liaison between the non-management directors of the Board and Mr. Plank and the other members of our management team, chairs regular executive sessions of the Board without Mr. Plank present and performs other functions as requested by the non-management directors.

Communication with Directors

If stockholders or other interested parties wish to communicate with non-management directors, they should write to Under Armour, Inc., Attention: Corporate Secretary, 2601 Port Covington Drive, Baltimore, Maryland 21230. Further information concerning contacting our Board is available through our investor relations website at www.uabiz.com, under “Investors-Governance.”

Stockholders Meeting Attendance

Directors are encouraged to attend annual meetings of stockholders, but we have no specific policy requiring attendance by directors at such meetings. All of our directors attended our 2017 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

Availability of Corporate Governance Information

For additional information on our corporate governance, including Board committee charters, our corporate governance guidelines and our code of business conduct and ethics, visit our investor relations website at www.uabiz.com, under “Investors-Governance.”

Role of Board in Risk Oversight

Our Board of Directors is responsible for the oversight of risk management. The Board delegates much of this responsibility to the Audit Committee. Under its charter, the committee’s responsibilities include to inquire of management and our independent registered public accounting firm about

13

significant financial risks or exposures, the company’s processes and policies for risk assessment and the steps management has taken to mitigate these risks to the company. The committee receives periodic reports from management on our enterprise risk management program and our risk mitigation efforts. The committee also oversees our legal and regulatory compliance programs and our internal audit function. The Compensation Committee has the responsibility to review the risks of our compensation policies and practices. Our full Board periodically reviews our financial and strategic plans and objectives, including the risks that may affect the achievement of these plans and objectives.

Stock Ownership Guidelines

Our Board of Directors has adopted stock ownership guidelines to further align the financial interests of the company’s executives and non-management directors with the interests of our stockholders. The guidelines provide that executive officers should own company stock with a value at least equal to ten times annual base salary for the Chief Executive Officer, three times annual base salary for Executive Vice Presidents and one time annual base salary for all other executive officers. The guidelines provide that non-management directors should own company stock with a value at least equal to three times the amount of the annual retainer paid to directors. Executive officers are expected to achieve the stock ownership levels under these guidelines within five years of their hire or promotion to executive officer and non-management directors within three years of joining our Board. The company’s stock ownership guidelines can be found on our website at www.uabiz.com, under “Investors-Governance.”

All executive officers and non-management directors are in compliance with the guidelines with the exception of persons new to their roles within the last few years, with the exception of Karl-Heinz Maurath. Mr. Maurath has announced his retirement from our company, effective March 31, 2018. We anticipate our remaining executive officers and non-management directors will be in compliance with the guidelines within the required time frame.

Kevin Plank, the company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board, and our founder, currently has a base salary of $26,000, which was his approximate salary when he founded the company. He owns 181,608 shares of Class A stock, 34,450,000 shares of Class B Stock and 33,819,595 shares of Class C Stock, valued at more than $1.1 billion as of the February 23, 2018 Record Date for the Annual Meeting of Stockholders, far above the multiple of ten times salary minimum ownership requirement, even assuming a significantly higher salary amount more typical for a Chief Executive Officer at a company of our size.

Independence of Directors

The Board has determined that all non-management directors who were elected to our Board at our 2017 Annual Stockholders Meeting were independent, and has further determined that the following eight directors standing for election at our 2018 Annual Stockholders Meeting are independent under the corporate governance listing standards of the New York Stock Exchange, or NYSE: George W. Bodenheimer, Douglas E. Coltharp, Jerri L. DeVard, Karen W. Katz, A.B. Krongard, William R. McDermott, Eric T. Olson and Harvey L. Sanders.

When determining the independence of the directors under NYSE standards, the Board considered certain company relationships. Mr. McDermott is the Chief Executive Officer and Executive Board member of SAP SE. The company has standard industry license agreements for SAP software and uses SAP for related support services. In 2015, the company also entered into an agreement with SAP to engage SAP to assist in an ongoing initiative that includes the implementation of SAP’s Fashion Management software and enhancements to global business processes to help support the company’s growth. In 2017, between these two arrangements, we paid approximately $10.2 million to SAP, or less than one-tenth of one percent of SAP’s 2017 worldwide revenues of approximately

14

€23.5 billion. The Board has determined that this relationship is not a material relationship and has no impact on Mr. McDermott’s independence. Kevin Plank is not independent because he is our Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer.

Our charter includes additional factors for the Board to consider when determining whether a director will be “independent” under the NYSE standards. Specifically, the Board must consider whether any of the independent directors have any material financial or service relationship with Mr. Plank or any of his family members. The Board has considered these factors and determined that none of the independent directors have any such relationships. A copy of our charter that includes these requirements is available through our website at www.uabiz.com, under “Investors-Governance”.

Board Meetings and Committees

Our Board meets regularly throughout the year. During 2017, there were ten meetings of the Board. In 2017, all directors attended at least 75% of the aggregate meetings of the Board and the committees of which they were members.

The Board has the following four standing committees: an Audit Committee, a Compensation Committee, a Corporate Governance Committee and a Finance and Capital Planning Committee. The table below provides current membership and meeting information for 2017 for each of these committees.

The functions performed by these standing committees are summarized below, and are set forth in more detail in their charters. The complete text of the charters for each standing committee can be found on our website at www.uabiz.com, under “Investors-Governance.” The Board has determined that each member of the Audit, Compensation and Governance committees is independent as required under NYSE listing standards and our charter. Each member of our Finance and Capital Planning committee is also independent.

Audit Committee

Mr. Krongard serves as the chairman of the Audit Committee. This committee assists the Board of Directors with oversight of matters relating to accounting, internal control, auditing, financial reporting, risk and legal and regulatory compliance. The committee oversees the audit and other services provided by our independent registered public accounting firm and is directly responsible for the appointment, independence, qualifications, compensation and oversight of the independent registered public accounting firm, which reports directly to the committee. The committee also oversees the internal audit function for Under Armour and the chief audit executive, who report directly to the committee. The Audit Committee Report for 2017 is included in this Proxy Statement under “Audit Committee Report.”

15

The Board has determined that all the committee members are independent, financially literate and qualify as “audit committee financial experts” under SEC rules and NYSE listing standards.

Compensation Committee

Mr. Sanders serves as the chairman of the Compensation Committee. This committee approves the compensation of our Chief Executive Officer, or CEO, and our other executive officers, administers our executive benefit plans, including the granting of stock options, restricted stock units and other awards under our equity incentive plans, and advises the Board on director compensation. Pursuant to its charter, the committee may delegate any of its responsibilities to a subcommittee comprised of one or more members of the committee. However, the committee has not delegated any such responsibilities.

Our CEO and other senior executives evaluate the performance of our executive officers and make recommendations to the Compensation Committee concerning their compensation. The committee considers these evaluations and recommendations, and its evaluation of the CEO in determining the compensation of our CEO and our other executive officers.

Pursuant to its charter, the Compensation Committee has the authority to obtain advice and assistance from advisors, including compensation consultants. In 2017, the committee engaged the services of an independent compensation consultant, Willis Towers Watson, or WTW, to provide executive compensation consulting services to the committee. This independent consultant reports directly to the committee and the committee retains sole authority to retain and terminate the consulting relationship. In carrying out its responsibilities, the independent consultant collaborates with management to obtain data, provide background on compensation programs and practices, and clarify pertinent information. The committee obtained from the independent consultant competitive market data on compensation for executives to assess generally the competitiveness of our executive compensation. The competitive market data was based on a peer group and WTW’s published industry survey data. The committee generally has not relied on the independent consultant to determine or recommend the amount or form of executive compensation.

Additional information concerning the processes and procedures for the consideration and determination of executive officer compensation is included in the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” section of this Proxy Statement. The Compensation Committee Report for 2017 is included under the “Compensation Committee Report” section of this Proxy Statement.

In early 2018, the Compensation Committee reviewed, with the assistance of management, the risks of our compensation policies and practices. The risk assessment included a review of our material compensation programs, the structure and nature of these programs, the short-term and long-term performance incentive targets used in these programs and how they relate to our business plans and creating stockholder value, corporate governance policies with respect to our compensation programs, and other aspects of our compensation programs. Based on this review and assessment, we concluded that the risks related to our compensation policies and practices are not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on our company.

Corporate Governance Committee

Mr. McDermott serves as the chairman of the Corporate Governance Committee. This committee identifies individuals qualified to become members of our Board of Directors, recommends candidates for election or reelection to our Board, oversees the evaluation of our Board, and advises our Board regarding committee composition and structure and other corporate governance matters. The committee also periodically reviews succession planning for our Chief Executive Officer and other senior executive positions.

16

Finance and Capital Planning Committee

Mr. Coltharp serves as the chairman of the Finance and Capital Planning Committee. This committee assists our Board in overseeing the financial and capital investment policies, planning and activities of the company.

Identifying and Evaluating Director Candidates

The Corporate Governance Committee recommends to the Board candidates to fill vacancies or for election or reelection to the Board. The Board then appoints new Board members to fill vacancies or nominates candidates each year for election or reelection by stockholders. The committee does not have a specific written policy or process regarding the nominations of directors, nor does it maintain minimum standards for director nominees other than as set forth in the committee’s charter as described below.

The Corporate Governance Committee’s charter requires the committee to establish criteria for selecting new directors, which reflects at a minimum a candidate’s strength of character, judgment, business experience, specific areas of expertise, factors relating to the composition of the Board, including its size and structure, and principles of diversity, including gender and ethnicity. The committee also considers the statutory requirements applicable to the composition of the Board and its committees, including the independence requirements of the NYSE. The committee also considers each candidate’s skills, knowledge and experience relative to what skills and experiences can best contribute to the effective operation of the Board, particularly in light of the evolving needs and long-term strategy of our company. We believe each Board member contributes a wide range of skills, knowledge and experience as illustrated in their individual biographies. For a discussion of the specific experience, qualifications, attributes or skills of the nominees for election to the Board, see the “Election of Directors” section of this Proxy Statement.

The Board has not established term limits for directors because of the concern that term limits may deprive the company and its shareholders of the contribution of directors who have been able to develop valuable insights into the company and its operations over time. The tenure of our directors ranges from one to fourteen years. We have added three new independent directors since mid-2014, with our two longest serving Board members retiring from the Board over the same time period. We believe the tenure of our Board members provides an appropriate balance of expertise, experience, continuity and perspective that serves the best interests of our shareholders. The average tenure of the non-management members of our Board is 8.6 years. Our corporate governance guidelines do provide that a director is expected not to stand for reelection after the age of 75. The Corporate Governance Committee recommended the Board nominate Mr. Krongard, age 81, for reelection to the Board based on his continued strong leadership and service on the Board both as Audit Committee Chairman and Lead Director, and the Board agreed with this recommendation.

The Corporate Governance Committee does not have a formal policy with regard to the consideration of diversity, including gender and ethnicity, in identifying director nominees. Consistent with the committee’s charter, when identifying director nominees, the committee considers general principles of diversity, and does so in the broadest sense, considering diversity in terms of business leadership, experience, industry background and geography, as well as gender and ethnicity. However, the committee and the Board believe that considering gender and ethnic diversity is consistent with the goal of creating a Board that best serves the needs of our company and the interests of our shareholders, and they are important factors considered when identifying individuals for Board membership. The committee strives for directors who represent a mix of backgrounds and experiences that will enhance the quality of the Board’s deliberations and oversight of our business, and as our business expands we hope to attract directors with a broader range of backgrounds and experiences.

17

The Corporate Governance Committee periodically considers criteria for identifying possible new director candidates as needed, in consultation with the CEO and Chairman of the Board and other members of the Board and management, and works with management and other members of the Board in recruiting new candidates. Candidates identified through this process are considered by the full committee for possible recommendation to the Board. From time to time the committee uses the services of a third party search firm to assist it in identifying and screening candidates.

In addition, the Corporate Governance Committee will consider director candidates suggested by stockholders. Any stockholder who wishes to recommend a director candidate for consideration by the committee may do so by submitting the name and qualifications of the candidate to the chairman of the committee. See “Communications with Directors” above for how to communicate with the chairman of the committee. Our bylaws include requirements for direct nominations by a stockholder of persons for election to our Board. These requirements are described under “Stockholder Proposals” at the end of this Proxy Statement.

Compensation of Directors

Retainers

The compensation arrangement for non-management directors during 2017 was as follows:

The cash retainers are payable in quarterly installments and directors have the option to defer the cash retainers into deferred stock units pursuant to the Non-Employee Directors Deferred Stock Unit Plan. Beginning with the second quarter of 2016, we began issuing deferred stock units for shares of our Class C Stock rather than our Class A Stock. Deferred stock units will be settled in shares of our Class A Stock or Class C Stock (as applicable) on a one-for-one basis six months after the director leaves the Board, or sooner upon death or disability. We do not pay meeting fees for any Board or standing committee meetings.

Equity Awards

Non-management directors also receive the following equity awards:

The restricted stock units vest in full upon the director’s death or disability or upon a change in control of Under Armour. The restricted stock units are forfeited if the director leaves the Board for any other reason prior to the scheduled vesting term. Upon vesting of the restricted stock units, the restricted stock units are converted into deferred stock units with the shares delivered six months after the director leaves the Board, or sooner upon death or disability.

18

The table set below sets forth information concerning the compensation of our non-management directors for 2017.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

The following is a discussion and analysis of our compensation policies and decisions regarding the 2017 compensation for our executive officers named in the compensation tables in this Proxy Statement.

Executive Summary

2017 marked a challenging year for Under Armour. In our North American business, which represents more than three-quarters of our net revenues, ongoing retail dislocation and consolidation, among other factors, impacted our results, particularly within our wholesale business. This led to lower results than we had initially anticipated at the start of the year. While we experienced challenges through the year, we believe we are taking proactive strategic steps to better position our company for long-term value creation, including by implementing restructuring plans designed to more closely align our financial resources with the critical priorities of our business with a goal of creating sustainable, long-term growth and returns for our shareholders.

As discussed in more detail below, our financial performance in 2017 resulted in a significant reduction to incentive awards and to performance based equity awards realized by each of our executive officers. For example Kevin Plank, our Chief Executive Officer, received no bonus for 2017 and all of his 2016 performance based equity award was forfeited and all of his 2017 performance based equity award is expected to be forfeited due primarily to our disappointing 2017 financial performance. See “—Components of Our 2017 Compensation Program—Equity Awards.” Mr. Plank’s total realized compensation, which includes his salary, the value of his shares vested and the value of all other compensation, declined almost 75% from $8.6 million in 2016 to $2.2 million in 2017. See “—CEO Actual Compensation Realized” on page 34.

Executive Compensation Program Changes for Fiscal 2017

In early 2017, following a review of competitive market data and practices, management recommended and our Compensation Committee approved certain changes to our annual equity award program designed to maintain our strong pay-for-performance culture while continuing to align the interests of our executives with our stockholders and promoting retention of key leaders in our organization. Key changes implemented in 2017 include the following:

What We Changed:				Why We Changed It:
Transitioned annual equity award mix from 100% performance based to 50% performance based and 50% time based				Altering mix of awards provides a more balanced approach for senior executives and promotes retention, while maintaining alignment with stockholders and continuing to emphasize financial performance
Increased “stretch” equity value to 200% of target value up from 125%				Provides increased upside potential, increasing incentives to drive growth
Added net revenue metric in performance based equity award, while maintaining operating income requirements				Highlights and promotes importance of overall growth in our business, with a continued emphasis on profitability

For 2017, substantially all of the annual compensation potential for our Chief Executive Officer, or CEO, Kevin Plank and a substantial portion of the annual compensation potential for our other executive officers were tied to the performance of our company, primarily through:

Our net revenue grew by 3.1% over 2016 to $4.98 billion, and our operating income was down year-over-year, in each case below the targets set forth under our 2017 annual cash incentive plan. As a result, we did not achieve the threshold financial targets under the plan and no awards were paid under this plan. However, given the efforts of our executives throughout the year, particularly in implementing our restructuring plan and other strategic initiatives, our Compensation Committee awarded limited cash bonuses to our executives, other than Mr. Plank. These bonuses ranged between approximately 10-30% of the target level of bonus the executives were otherwise eligible for under the plan. See “—Components of our 2017 Compensation Program—Bonuses” below. The performance targets for the performance based equity awards granted in 2017 were based on net revenue and adjusted operating income growth targets set at levels designed to require meaningful sales growth in 2017 and 2018 with a continued focus on profitability. As discussed in more detail below, given changes to our business plans following the grant of these 2017 awards, we no longer expect these 2017 awards to ultimately vest in future years, therefore delivering no value to our executives. See “—Components of Our 2017 Compensation Program—Equity Awards—Annual Performance Based and Time Based Equity Awards for 2017.”

In addition, as previously disclosed in our proxy statement for last year’s Annual Meeting of Stockholders, following the determination that the vesting of our 2016 performance based equity awards was not probable, in February 2017 management recommended and our Compensation Committee approved retention equity awards for certain executives in the form of time based restricted stock units, vesting in four equal annual installments. See “—Components of Our 2017 Compensation Program—Equity Awards—2017 Retention Equity Awards.”

Advisory Vote to Approve Executive Compensation

At our 2017 Annual Meeting of Stockholders we held an advisory vote to approve executive compensation, commonly referred to as “say on pay.” The Compensation Committee values the opinions expressed by stockholders in these votes. While these votes are advisory and non-binding, the Compensation Committee and the Board review the voting results and seek to determine the cause or causes of any significant negative voting result. Voting results provide little detail by themselves, and we may consult directly with stockholders to better understand issues and concerns not previously presented.

Our stockholders overwhelmingly approved our “say on pay” proposal at our 2017 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, with more than 97% of the votes cast voting to approve our executive compensation. The Compensation Committee reviewed the voting results and, given the strong level of support, did not make any changes to our executive compensation program or principles in response to the vote.

21

Last year our stockholders also voted overwhelmingly in favor of our recommendation to hold the “say on pay” vote each year. Based on this, and consistent with our recommendation, our Board has adopted a policy to hold a say on pay vote every year. Our Board is recommending stockholders vote in favor of approval of our executive compensation this year.

The Compensation Committee will continue to consider results from the annual “say on pay” advisory vote, including the results from the upcoming 2018 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, as well as other stockholder input, when reviewing executive compensation programs, principles and policies.

Executive Compensation Features

We believe our executive compensation programs incorporate best practices that seek to drive business performance and align our executives with stockholder interests:

Objectives and Elements of our Compensation Program

The overall objectives of our compensation program for our executive officers are to:

The key elements of our executive compensation program that are designed to help achieve these objectives are as follows:

22

We offer minimal benefits and perquisites to our executives and do not offer pension or other retirement plans, other than a 401(k) plan that is offered to our employees generally. We have a deferred compensation plan pursuant to which executives may defer certain compensation; however we did not make any company contributions to this plan in 2017 for any executive officers.

Compensation Decision-Making Process

Compensation Committee review process

In early 2017, the Compensation Committee engaged the services of Willis Towers Watson, or WTW, to provide executive compensation consulting services to the committee. The committee obtained from WTW competitive market data on compensation for executives to assess generally the competitiveness of our executive compensation. The competitive market data was based on a peer group and published industry survey data from WTW’s General Industry Executive Compensation, Retail/Wholesale Executive Compensation and High Tech Executive Compensation Databases. The peer group was developed by management based on publicly traded companies within the apparel and footwear industries. Some of the companies within the peer group we may compete with for talent or compare our performance against from time to time. The following companies were included in the peer group:

The Compensation Committee did not target compensation at or near any particular percentile ranking within the peer group or industry survey data, or otherwise use this competitive market data to determine the amount or form of executive compensation. Rather the committee used this data as a general assessment of the competitiveness of our executive compensation program and the design of our annual cash incentive plan. The committee determined that our executive compensation was reasonable when compared to the peer group and industry data. As discussed throughout this Compensation Discussion and Analysis section, the committee considers many factors in the determination of executive compensation levels, including the executive’s prior experience, the position and level of responsibility with the company and company, business unit and individual performance.

In early 2018, in conjunction with the review of performance against the 2017 annual cash incentive plan targets, consideration of the cash bonuses discussed below, and 2018 salaries and annual equity awards for executive officers, the Compensation Committee reviewed tally sheets relating to executive officer compensation that were prepared by management. The tally sheets included summary compensation information for 2015 through 2017, including base salary, annual cash incentive awards and equity awards, and the value of unvested equity awards vesting in 2018 and future years.

The Compensation Committee reviewed similar tally sheet data in early 2017 in conjunction with the approval of 2017 salaries and annual equity awards for executive officers.

Management’s role in determining compensation

As discussed throughout this Compensation Discussion and Analysis section, our management makes recommendations to the Compensation Committee on salaries, annual incentive awards and other types of compensation for executive officers, other than our CEO, Kevin Plank. Mr. Plank, with input from other senior executives, has generally recommended the salaries, annual incentive awards and equity awards for our executive officers. The recommendations are based on an assessment of each executive’s performance, including the performance of the business unit(s) for which the executive officer has responsibility and contributions made to the overall success of our business. These executives, including our Chief Human Resources Officer, our Vice President of Total Rewards,

23

our President and Chief Operating Officer, our Chief Financial Officer and our General Counsel and Corporate Secretary, have also been involved in recommendations on the design and framework for our annual incentive plan and our equity awards, including the equity awards with vesting tied to our company’s performance. These executives also generally attend meetings of the Compensation Committee. The committee generally approves salaries and annual incentive awards for executive officers in executive sessions of the committee without the executive officers present.

Components of Our 2017 Compensation Program

SALARY

The Compensation Committee approves salaries for our executive officers at levels it deems appropriate based primarily on the executive’s level of responsibility.

The following table summarizes the base salaries for our named executive officers approved by the Compensation Committee for 2017:

In 2008, our CEO Mr. Plank voluntarily reduced his salary from $500,000 to $26,000, which was his approximate salary when he founded our company. As our largest stockholder, he believes he should be compensated for his services based primarily on our company’s performance through our annual incentive plan and annual equity awards as discussed below.

With respect to our other named executive officers, the Compensation Committee took the following actions:

24

ANNUAL CASH INCENTIVE AWARD

Plan Design and Performance Measures

We have an annual cash incentive plan for our executive officers. Under the plan, executives are eligible for a cash incentive award based primarily on company performance during the year. In January 2017, we announced our financial expectations for fiscal year 2017, noting that we expected more moderate net revenue growth than we had experienced in recent years, and as a result we expected operating income to decrease year-over-year as we maintained certain near-term investments needed to protect our long-term growth strategy. The Compensation Committee considered these expectations when establishing targets under the annual cash incentive plan. The baseline performance measure considered for 2017 was net revenue, with the Compensation Committee considering our profitability when determining the ultimate award amounts.

Net Revenue

For 2017, company performance was assessed first on the level of net revenue growth. If the company achieved a certain minimum net revenue growth for 2017, then executives would be eligible for annual incentive awards under the plan. Management and the Compensation Committee viewed net revenue growth as a fundamental indicator of our business strength.

Operating Income

Assuming the minimum net revenue growth was achieved, the Compensation Committee reserved its right to exercise its discretion to reduce or eliminate any annual incentive award amounts depending on our operating income for 2017, which was expected to decrease year-over-year. The Compensation Committee further expected to consider the impact of our 2017 restructuring plan on operating income targets when determining any award amounts. While the company would be required to achieve the net revenue growth target in order for any award amount to be paid under the plan, the Compensation Committee approved operating income targets it believed incentivized management to manage costs and operate the business in a profitable manner, despite the expected decrease in operating income.

Other Performance Measures

Our annual cash incentive plan for executives for 2017 was based primarily on the overall company performance measures described above. For executives in charge of certain business units, generally 25% of their incentive award was tied to the performance of their respective business units based primarily on the net revenue growth and profitability of the business units. These measures, when combined with the other business units, align with the consolidated measures discussed above.

Below is a summary of the primary performance measures considered in our annual cash incentive plan for 2017, including how our operating income targets would have been impacted by the restructuring and impairment and other related charges realized in connection with our 2017 restructuring plan:

*  As discussed above, our operating income in 2017 was expected to decrease as compared to our operating income in 2016, which was $417.5 million. The operating income targets above must include the funding for the incentive award amounts. As a result, in order to fund higher incentive award amounts above the threshold level, the company must have achieved operating income levels even higher than those shown above.

25

**  Post-restructuring operating income represents what the operating income targets as reported under generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) would have been after the impact of the $129 million of restructuring and impairment and other related charges realized in connection with our 2017 restructuring plan. Our actual 2017 GAAP reported operating income for 2017, which includes the impact of the 2017 restructuring plan, was approximately $28 million.

Incentive Award Levels and Results

For 2017, the Compensation Committee set the following award target levels under our annual cash incentive plan for our named executive officers based on achievement of our operating income targets, and these award levels were substantially the same as the award levels for 2016:

*  With respect to Mr. Frisk, given his significant leadership role within the Company as President and Chief Operating Officer, the Compensation Committee approved higher target and stretch opportunities for him upon his joining our company in July 2017.

**  With respect to Mr. Bergman, given his appointment as acting Chief Financial Officer in early 2017, the Compensation Committee approved a target level of 45% of annual salary and a stretch level of 90% of annual salary. Mr. Bergman was appointed Chief Financial Officer in November 2017, thereby removing the acting designation. When reviewing potential bonus payments for executives in early February 2018, the Compensation Committee determined that when considering any potential bonus for Mr. Bergman, it would consider his target level to be 75% of his annual salary (in line with other executives).

Between the threshold amount and the target amount of operating income, and the target amount and stretch amount of operating income, the company utilizes a sliding scale to determine the payout based on the amount of funding generated by the incremental operating income dollars.

The annual incentive amounts for all the named executive officers were set at the above levels in order to have a significant percentage of the executive officers’ total compensation tied primarily to corporate performance. We believe tying a significant percentage of executive officers’ total compensation to corporate performance supports our objective to motivate our executives to build and profitably grow our business.

Our net revenue was approximately $4.98 billion, approximately 2% below the $5.1 billion minimum revenue target required for executives to be eligible for awards under the plan. Our GAAP reported operating income for 2017 was approximately $28 million, well below the threshold post-restructuring operating income target of $184 million. As a result of not achieving the threshold target, no amounts were paid under the plan for 2017 to any of our named executive officers.

BONUSES

Despite not having achieved the net revenue and operating income targets under the annual cash incentive plan, management recommended and the Compensation Committee approved limited cash bonus awards for certain of our executive officers, excluding Mr. Plank. This recommendation was based in part on the significant efforts undertaken by the executive team in successfully executing on the restructuring plan announced in August 2017, which was designed to more closely align our financial resources with the critical priorities of our business. Along with restructuring efforts, the executive team made significant progress on a number of strategic initiatives. Mr. Bergman led the business in significantly reducing capital expenditures for the year and was key to the restructuring

26

initiatives. Mr. Fipps successfully led our Connected Fitness business through significant cost saving initiatives, and also oversaw the implementation of our new global operating and financial reporting information technology system, a critical initiative for the long-term success of our business. Mr. Frisk’s strong leadership throughout the organization supported the achievement of the business unit goals for many of the groups under his leadership. Finally, while our North America business unit did not achieve its goals, Mr. Maurath’s leadership of our international segments led to us overachieving in those business units. The bonus awards approved for each named executive officer ranged between approximately 10-30% of the target amount for the executive level that could have been earned under the annual cash incentive plan if the company had achieved its financial targets and the differences between each executive officer’s ultimate awards was driven by performance against the business unit goals otherwise set under the annual cash incentive plan.

For the cash bonus awards paid to the named executive officers, see the “2017 Summary Compensation Table” below.

EQUITY AWARDS

Management and the Compensation Committee believe equity awards are an important component of executive compensation and serve to better align the interests of our executives with those of our stockholders.

The Compensation Committee approves equity awards under our Second Amended and Restated 2005 Omnibus Long-Term Incentive Plan, as amended. The purpose of the long-term incentive plan is to enhance our ability to attract and retain highly qualified executives and other persons and to motivate them to improve our business results and earnings for the long-term by providing them with equity holdings in Under Armour. Beginning in the second quarter of 2016, we began issuing equity awards for shares of our Class C Stock as equity compensation. While the Compensation Committee has the discretion under the terms of the plan to issue awards for shares of our Class A Stock, the Compensation Committee currently intends to utilize only our Class C Stock for equity compensation going forward.

Forfeiture of 2016 Performance Based Equity Awards

In early 2016, the Compensation Committee approved the grant of a performance based stock option award to Mr. Plank, and performance based restricted stock unit awards to our other executive officers and members of management. Vesting of the 2016 awards was tied to our achievement of combined operating income targets for 2016 and 2017, as adjusted for the impact of certain goodwill impairment charges, litigation related expense, foreign exchange losses and charges related to the write-down of our accounts receivable asset due to customer bankruptcies. For the 2016 award, the committee set the growth targets to incentivize management to continue to drive strong operating income growth during the performance period. As previously disclosed, these growth targets were adjusted to reflect revisions to our financial plan announced in May 2016 in connection with the bankruptcy of one of our customers. With respect to the 2016 award, 50% of the award would be earned if the threshold level was achieved, 100% of the award would be earned if the target level was achieved, and 125% of the award would be earned if the stretch level was achieved. The requirements for operating income (adjusted as described above) were set as follows: threshold was $1,002 million, target was $1,043 million and stretch was $1,085 million.

We did not achieve the threshold level of performance, and as a result all of the performance shares were forfeited.

27

2017 Retention Equity Awards

As previously disclosed in our annual proxy statement for last year’s annual stockholders meeting, following our determination that the vesting of the 2016 performance based equity awards was not probable, management and the Compensation Committee considered whether it would be in the best interest of the company and its stockholders to grant additional retention awards to executives. The committee considered a number of factors when evaluating the retention awards, including among other factors:

In February 2017, management recommended and the committee approved retention equity awards for certain executives in the form of time based restricted stock units, vesting in four equal annual installments, with the first vesting beginning in February 2018. The following table presents the value of the retention awards received by our named executive officers in February 2017. Mr. Plank requested that he not be considered for a retention equity award. Mr. Frisk joined our company in July 2017.

Annual Performance Based and Time Based Equity Awards for 2017

As discussed above under “—Executive Summary—Executive Compensation Program Changes for Fiscal 2017,” following a review of competitive market data and practices, management recommended and the Compensation Committee approved certain changes to our annual equity award program, including changing the mix of our annual equity awards to executive officers to include time based awards, increasing the “stretch” value of performance awards and adding a net revenue performance metric to the awards. The following provides a summary of the 2017 annual equity award program for our named executive officers:

28

		Represents 50% of the total grant date fair value of annual equity awards granted to each named executive officer   Vests in four-equal annual installments beginning in February 2018, subject to continued employment   Promotes long-term retention of executives and alignment with stockholder interests
		Represents 50% of the total grant date fair value of annual equity awards granted to each named executive officer   Vesting is tied to achievement of combined net revenue and adjusted operating income targets for 2017 and 2018, with payouts ranging from 25%-200% based on the performance level achieved   If performance metrics are achieved, awards vest in two-equal annual installments beginning in February 2019, subject to continued employment   Emphasizes and incentivizes financial performance by providing upside potential for strong growth, while continuing to focus on profitability, stockholder value and retention

With respect to Mr. Plank’s annual equity award, management recommended and the Compensation Committee approved performance based and time based stock option awards to Mr. Plank. Other executive officers and members of management received annual equity awards in the form of performance based and time based restricted stock unit awards. The committee determined that for Mr. Plank it would further incentivize him to drive long-term shareholder value if he were awarded stock options, as the options would only have value to the extent our stock price increased over the price on the grant date.

The employees receiving this equity award were chosen based primarily on their position and responsibilities with the company, as well as their past performance. The total amount of equity awards to all employees was generally based on the total compensation expense amount related to equity awards as budgeted by management. The amount of the equity award to each employee, including executive officers, was generally tiered based on the employee’s level within the company. The threshold, target and maximum number of options or shares that can be earned by the named executive officers are included in the “Grants of Plan-Based Awards for 2017” table below.

In February 2018, we announced our 2017 financial results and updated our business plan for 2018. Based on the changes in our business plan, we no longer expect any of the 2017 performance based stock options and restricted stock units to vest and be earned. The following table sets forth the total compensation for our named executive officers as described in our “2017 Summary Compensation Table”, adjusted for the loss of these 2017 awards.

29

Time Based Equity Awards

From time to time management recommends and the Compensation Committee approves other time based restricted stock unit awards to certain of our executive officers, typically in connection with the officer joining our company or to ensure that the officer’s financial interests are sufficiently aligned with the interests of our stockholders. In determining the amount of these awards, management and the committee considered primarily the executive’s position and level of responsibility within our company, as well as the retention and long-term incentive value of the award. Mr. Frisk was granted a time based award upon joining us in 2017. In determining the amount of Mr. Frisk’s award, management and the committee considered his significant leadership position as President and Chief Operating Officer and the importance of aligning his interests with those of stockholders. Given the size of Mr. Frisk’s award, management recommended and the committee agreed that the award should vest in annual installments over a five year period in order to provide the appropriate long-term incentive. This equity award is included in the “Grants of Plan-Based Awards for 2017” table below.

BENEFITS AND PERQUISITES

We have no defined benefit pension plan or any type of supplemental retirement plan for executives. We have a deferred compensation plan to provide senior management, including executive officers, with a way to save on a tax deferred basis for retirement and other needs. The plan allows for company contributions in certain limited cases. See “Nonqualified Deferred Compensation” for a description of this plan and the balances under the plan for the named executive officers. We did not make any company contributions to the plan in 2017 for any named executive officer.

Executive officers are eligible to participate in our broad-based benefit plans available to employees generally, including a 401(k) plan and Employee Stock Purchase Plan.

We pay the premiums for supplemental long-term disability insurance for our executive officers. The standard benefit offered to all employees provides long-term disability insurance equal to 60% of their salary; however, the benefit is capped at a maximum benefit of $10,000 per month. The cap results in a lower percentage of salary paid for executive officers under the standard benefit. The supplemental policy brings the total long-term disability insurance benefit for the executive officers closer to the 60% of salary level. For the named executive officers, the supplemental policy provides additional monthly disability benefits of approximately $20,000-$30,000. To avoid reducing the expected benefit to the executive officers, we have provided a tax gross-up to them to cover the income taxes incurred as a result of our paying the premiums on these policies. At Mr. Plank’s request, we have not provided a tax gross-up to him, other than certain de minimis amounts. Beginning in 2018, we no longer provide this tax gross-up to our executive officers.

30

Other Compensation Practices

Equity Grant Practices

During 2017, equity awards were generally granted to executive officers at one of our regularly scheduled Compensation Committee meetings, other than for Mr. Frisk who was granted his equity awards at a special meeting upon his joining our company. Our practice is to grant stock options with an exercise price equal to the closing market price of our common stock on the grant date. We have not had any program, plan or practice to select stock option grant dates for executive officers in coordination with the release of material non-public information in order to create value for the executive when the stock price increases over the exercise price for the stock option.

Hedging and Pledging

Our Board has adopted, as part of our insider trading policy, prohibitions against any employee or director hedging ownership of Under Armour stock by engaging in short sales or purchasing and selling of derivative securities relating to Under Armour stock. No director or executive officer of the company has any shares pledged as security.

Change in Control Severance Agreements

We have a change in control severance agreement with all of our executives except for our CEO, Mr. Plank. The purpose of the agreement is to ensure that we are able to receive and rely upon the executive’s advice as to the best interest of the company and our stockholders in connection with a change in control without concern that the executive might be distracted, or his or her advice may be affected by the personal uncertainties and risks created by a change in control.

The agreements generally provide severance only following a change in control and only if the executive’s employment is terminated without cause or the executive leaves for good reason within one year after the change in control, generally referred to as a “double trigger.” The agreements do not provide for a tax gross-up.

The primary benefit offered under the agreements is severance in an amount equal to one year’s salary and annual incentive award plus a pro-rata annual incentive award for the year in which the employment ends. The executive must agree to not compete against the company for one year in order to receive these benefits. The agreements have a fixed one-year term with no automatic renewal of the term. In late 2017, the Compensation Committee and the Board reviewed the agreements, and decided that the agreements were reasonable and should be extended through the end of 2018.

Deductibility of Executive Compensation

Management and the Compensation Committee consider, as appropriate, the effect of limitations on deductibility for federal income tax purposes under Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of compensation in excess of $1 million. The limitation applied to such compensation paid in a given year to our CEO and the three other most highly compensated executive officers (excluding the chief financial officer) named in the summary compensation table provided that the executive officer is employed by us as an executive officer as of the end of that year.

We intend for awards paid by us pursuant to our annual incentive plan to qualify as performance-based compensation that will not be subject to the limitations on tax deductibility under Section 162(m). The exemption from Section 162(m)’s deduction limit for performance-based compensation has been repealed, effective for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2017, such that compensation paid to our covered executive officers in excess of $1 million will not be deductible unless it qualifies for transition release applicable to certain arrangements in place as of November 2, 2017.

31

The tax deductions related to vesting of performance based restricted stock unit awards also generally qualify as performance-based compensation and thus are not subject to these limitations on tax deductibility. Mr. Plank, our CEO, received performance based stock options and the tax deduction related to the exercise of stock options is not subject to the limitations on tax deductibility. In addition, although we are able to record compensation expense for federal income tax purposes for other time based restricted stock awards in the year when the restricted stock award vests, the expense related to these outstanding restricted stock awards will be subject to these limitations on tax deductibility if the executive is subject to these limitations in the year of vesting.

Compensation Committee Report

The Compensation Committee has reviewed and discussed the Compensation Discussion and Analysis section of this Proxy Statement with Under Armour’s management. Based on this review and discussion, the Compensation Committee recommended to the Board of Directors that the Compensation Discussion and Analysis be included in our Proxy Statement and be incorporated by reference into our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017, as filed with the SEC.

2017 Summary Compensation Table

The following table sets forth information concerning compensation paid or accrued in the applicable years to our Chief Executive Officer, our Chief Financial Officer, our former Chief Financial Officer and the other three most highly compensated executive officers in 2017. Certain salary and annual incentive plan compensation amounts may be deferred under our deferred compensation plan as discussed under “Nonqualified Deferred Compensation for 2017” below. On February 28, 2018, we announced that Mr. Maurath, one of our named executive officers, will be retiring from the company effective March 31, 2018.

As discussed above, we do not currently expect the performance based equity awards granted in 2017 (and discussed in Note (3) to the table below) to vest, and the performance based equity awards granted in 2016 have been forfeited in full. Please refer to the table presented above under “—Equity Awards—Performance Based Equity Awards for 2017” for each named executive officer’s total 2017 compensation without these awards included.

With respect to the 2015 performance based awards, we ultimately achieved the “target” level of performance. However, the 2016 performance based awards were forfeited in full based on financial performance, and we have determined that vesting of any portion of the 2017 performance based awards is not probable. See “—Equity Awards—Forfeiture of 2016 Performance Based Equity Awards” and “—Equity Awards—Annual Performance Based and Time Based Equity Awards for 2017”.

In accordance with SEC disclosure rules, we are required to present the fair values of the 2015, 2016 and 2017 performance based awards at grant date assuming achievement at the highest level or “stretch” level of performance conditions for each of these awards (equal to 125% of the target value for the 2015 and 2016 awards, and 200% of the target value for the 2017 awards). The value of any time based awards are not included.

33

CEO Actual Compensation Realized

The supplemental table below sets forth the 2017 and 2016 compensation realized for Mr. Plank, our CEO, and is not a substitute for the Summary Compensation Table above. “Total Actual Compensation Realized” reports the actual value realized during the year on equity compensation, including the vesting of restricted stock units granted in prior years and the exercises of stock options granted in prior years (none were exercised in 2016 or 2017). This differs from “Total” compensation as set forth in the Summary Compensation Table, which as noted above presents the grant date fair value of equity awards granted in that year. We believe this supplemental table more accurately reflects the significant impact the company’s performance has had on Mr. Plank’s compensation during 2017, as compared to the Summary Compensation Table presented above.

34

Grants of Plan-Based Awards for 2017

The following table contains information concerning: (1) possible payments to the named executive officers under our 2017 annual cash incentive plan approved by the Compensation Committee in 2017; and (2) estimated equity award payouts to the named executive officers in 2017 under our Second Amended and Restated 2005 Omnibus Long-Term Incentive Plan, as amended (the “2005 Plan”).

Given his resignation from the company in March 2017, Mr. Molloy was not granted any plan-based awards for 2017 and is therefore excluded from the table below. All equity awards included in the table below were for shares of our Class C common stock.

35

Employment Agreement

We have no employment agreements with any of our named executive officers.

Outstanding Equity Awards at 2017 Fiscal Year-End

The following table contains information concerning unexercised stock options and restricted stock units that were not vested for the named executive officers as of December 31, 2017. Mr. Molly held no outstanding equity awards as of December 31, 2017 and is therefore excluded from the table.
