 plans. If you are a Class A Shareholder and do not indicate your voting preferences, Timothy J. O’Shaughnessy, Wallace R. Cooney, Jacob M. Maas and Nicole M. Maddrey, acting as your proxies, will vote your shares in favor of the applicable nominated Directors and for approval of the compensation awarded to the Company’s named executive officers for 2024. Q: How do I vote if I participate in one of the Company’ s 401(k) plans? A: As a participant in one of the Company’s 401(k) plans with Graham Holdings Company Class B Common Stock allocated to your account, you can direct the Plan Trustee on how to vote Graham Holdings Company Class B Common Stock allocated to your account(s) on a Proxy voting direction card, electronically through the internet or by telephone. These plans are the Savings Plan for Graham Holdings Company, the Kaplan, Inc. Tax Deferred Savings Plan for Salaried Employees and the 401(k) Savings Plan for GHC Affiliates (the “Plan(s)”). Vanguard Fiduciary Trust Company serves as the trustee (the “Plan Trustee”) with respect to the Class B Common Stock allocated to accounts in the Plans. If you do not provide timely direction to the Plan Trustee or if you submit a Proxy voting direction card and do not indicate your voting preferences, shares allocated to your account(s) will be voted by the Plan Trustee in the same proportion to those shares allocated to accounts of participants for which timely direction was received, unless contrary to the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”). Plan participants may join the Annual Meeting, but may not vote Plan shares at the Annual Meeting. If you wish to vote, whether you plan to join the Annual Meeting or not, you should direct the Plan Trustee how you wish to vote your Plan shares no later than 11:00 p.m., Eastern Daylight Time, on May 1, 2025. Q: Who can vote? A: You can vote if you were a shareholder of record as of the close of business on March 12, 2025 (the “Record Date”). If you hold shares in street name, your broker, bank or other nominee will instruct you as to how your shares may be voted by Proxy, including whether telephonic or internet voting options are available. You may not vote shares held in street name in person at the Meeting unless you have a Proxy executed in your favor by your broker
