Guilfoile will step down as Chair and retire from the Board of Directors (the "Board") following the 2024 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the "Annual Meeting"). The Board will elect a new Chair following Ms. Guilfoile's retirement. Additionally, the Company announced the addition of two highly qualified and independent members – William S. Simon and Jill Sutton – to its Board, effective February 1, 2024. Mr. Simon and Ms. Sutton were selected following a process that was supported by an independent, nationally-recognized search firm.

    The Company's slate of director candidates for this year's Annual Meeting is expected to include the following individuals:

    • William S. Simon
    • Sheila A. Stamps
    • Jill Sutton

    Once the Company appoints its next permanent Chief Executive Officer, that individual is expected to be added to the Board and become its tenth member.

    Ms. Guilfoile, Chair of the Board, commented:

    "It has been a privilege to lead the Board of Pitney Bowes, a storied business with a more than 100-year history of change and innovation. The past year has been a particularly transformative one in terms of adding several new directors, initiating a leadership transition and laying a foundation for enhanced value creation. I have enjoyed working with our interim Chief Executive Officer, Jason Dies, who has been establishing a results-driven culture and taking decisive steps to position the organization for long-term success. I look forward to working with management and the rest of the Board, including our newest members, to build on this momentum between now and the Annual Meeting. I also want to take this opportunity to thank the Company's employees, customers, partners and investors for their confidence and trust during my time with Pitney Bowes."

    Ms. May, Chair of the Nominating and Governance Committee, added:

    "On behalf of all my fellow directors, I want to thank Mary for her invaluable leadership during an important period for Pitney Bowes. She has overseen governance enhancements and strategic actions that we expect will put the Company on stronger footing for years to come. Our entire Board also welcomes Bill and Jill, who collectively bring significant experience in areas such as capital allocation, corporate governance and transformations."

    In conjunction with today's announcement, the Company has also entered into a cooperation agreement with Hestia Capital Management, LLC (collectively with its affiliates, "Hestia Capital").

    Mr. Wolf, a member of the Board and the Founder and Chief Investment Officer of Hestia Capital, concluded:

    "I am pleased to have reached an agreement with Pitney Bowes to solidify Hestia Capital's long-term support for the Company's Board and strategic direction. I also want to thank Mary for her many contributions as Chair. Looking ahead, I am confident that this Board will deliver meaningful value-enhancing results for shareholders, whom we represent, as well as for all of our other stakeholders."

    Additional information related to today's announcements and the agreement with Hestia can be found on a Form 8-K filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
