On November 16, 2023, Scott Wille resigned from the Board of Directors (the "Board") of Albertsons Companies, Inc. (the "Company") including the Governance, Compliance and ESG Committee and the Finance Committee of the Board. His resignation was not the result of any disagreement between Mr. Wille and the Company, its management, the Board, or any committee thereof, or with respect to any matter relating to the Company's operations, policies, or practices. Mr. Wille served on the Board from 2020 and was designated to the Board by Cerberus (as defined below).

Effective November 21, 2023, Lisa Gray was appointed as a member of the Board for the term expiring at the Company's 2024 annual meeting of stockholders or until her successor is duly elected and qualified. Ms. Gray has not been appointed to any committee of the Board. Ms. Gray was designated to the Board by certain affiliates of Cerberus Capital Management, L.P. ("Cerberus") pursuant to the director designation right set forth in Section 2.01 of that certain Stockholders' Agreement, dated as of June 25, 2020, by and among the Company and certain affiliates of Cerberus. Affiliates of Cerberus maintain an ownership position in the Company, holding 151,818,680 shares of Class A common stock of the Company.

Ms. Gray is currently the Vice Chair and Senior Legal Officer of Cerberus Operations and Advisory Company, LLC, and a member of Cerberus's Office of General Counsel. Ms. Gray has over 35 years of experience in structuring and negotiating complex mergers and acquisitions, regulatory and legislative advocacy, corporate governance, and debt restructurings. She serves on the boards of Cerberus Operations and Advisory Company, LLC, and various portfolio company boards. Prior to the Company's initial public offering, Ms. Gray served on the board of directors of Albertsons LLC and various of its subsidiary companies. Ms. Gray served on the board of directors of NexTier Oilfield, formerly known as Keane Group Inc., a leading provider of integrated completions focused on the most demanding land basins in the United States, from 2011 to 2019.

Except for the information disclosed under "Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions – Transactions with Cerberus" in the Company's proxy statement for the 2023 annual meeting of stockholders, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 21, 2023 (the "Proxy Statement"), which is incorporated by reference herein, Ms. Gray is not party to any transaction with the Company that would require disclosure under Item 404(a) of the SEC’s Regulation S-K.
