(b) On June 24, 2019, William Plummer, a member of the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of John Wiley & Sons, Inc. (the
“Company”), provided notice that he has decided not to stand for re-election as a director at the end of his current term, which will expire at the Company’s 2019 Annual Shareholder’s Meeting in September, due to other commitments. For the
avoidance of doubt, Mr. Plummer’s decision to not seek re-election was not due to any disagreements with the Company or the Board on any matter relating to the Company’s operations, policies or practices. Mr. Plummer presently serves on the Audit
Committee and the Technology Committee of the Board. Mr. Plummer has served on the Company’s Board since 2003.
