May 15, 2019, at KBR’s 2019 Annual Meeting of Stockholders in accordance with the Board’s retirement policy. It is the policy of the Board that each non-executive director will retire from the Board by the annual meeting of stockholders following
his or her seventy-fifth birthday.
Mr. Carroll’s 12-year service on the Board began in April 2007 when KBR became a stand-alone company. During his tenure, Mr. Carroll served on
every Board committee and was Chairman of both the Compensation and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committees. In 2014, after having served as Lead Director for two years, Mr. Carroll began serving as KBR’s first non-executive Chairman of the
Board. Upon Mr. Carroll’s retirement from the Board, General Lester L. Lyles, USAF (Ret.), will become KBR’s non-executive Chairman of the Board.
Stuart Bradie commented that “Mr. Carroll’s governance for the past 12 years has been integral to KBR’s development, transformation, and
numerous achievements. We are grateful to Mr. Carroll for his outstanding service and wish him well in his retirement.”
