 will vest. Dividend equivalents accrue on the RSUs at the regular common stock dividend rate in additional RSUs. Non-employee directors may also defer receipt of their stock compensation under the Lamb Weston Directors’ Deferred Compensation Plan.

In July 2025, the Board approved changes to our non-employee director compensation program. Effective following the Annual Meeting, the Board retainer will be 100% equity. Accordingly, the annual equity grant value will be $270,000, which amount includes the former Board annual cash retainer. The committee chair retainers will continue to be paid in cash. In addition, in connection with their respective appointments to the Board in July 2025, Ms. Kimmelshue and Messrs. Alford, Kurzius, Maass, McLevish and Ostfeld received 100% of their prorated compensation in RSUs. Mr. Alford also received his prorated Chairman retainer in the form of stock options (50%) and RSUs (50%).

#### Director Stock Ownership Requirements
To further align our non-employee directors’ and our stockholders’ interests, the Board has adopted stock ownership requirements for the non-employee directors. All non-employee directors are expected to hold shares of Lamb Weston common stock in an amount equal to five times the annual Board retainer (currently $500,000). All directors must acquire this ownership level within five years after joining the Board. Directors may not sell Lamb Weston common stock until such time as the director has achieved the retention amount (except to satisfy applicable tax obligations). If a director holds the retention amount, the director may elect to sell any shares above that amount upon vesting. If a director departs from the Board, the director may not sell the retention amount until six months after his or her date of departure from the Board. All of our current directors who have served for five years or more meet the stock ownership requirements.
