On January 9, 2024, upon recommendation of its Nominating, Governance and Corporate Citizenship Committee, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Levi Strauss & Co. (the “Company”) elected David Marberger to serve as a Class III member of the Board and appointed Mr. Marberger to serve as a member of the Board’s Audit Committee, effective immediately. Mr. Marberger will serve as a member of the Board until the Company’s 2025 annual meeting of shareholders and until his successor is elected and qualified, or until his earlier death, resignation, retirement or removal.

Company’s 2019 Equity Incentive Plan with a grant date fair value of $155,000. The RSUs vest in full on the earlier of (i) the day before the next annual meeting or (ii) the one-year anniversary of the date of grant.
Mr. Marberger is not a party to any arrangement or understanding with any person pursuant to which he was elected as a director, nor is he a party to any transaction requiring disclosure pursuant to Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.
