#### Executive Sessions of Independent Directors
The Independent Directors met without any members of management present in executive session at more than half of the Board meetings held in 2024. During 2024, Mr. Williams, the Independent Chairman of the Board, chaired these sessions. Committees of the Board also regularly hold executive sessions without management present. These sessions are led by the Committee Chairs.

#### Communications with the Board and Directors
Stockholders and other parties interested in communicating directly with the Board, an individual Independent Director or the Independent Directors as a group may do so by writing our Corporate Secretary at anywhereboard@anywhere.re or Anywhere Real Estate Inc., 175 Park Avenue, Madison, New Jersey 07940. The Corporate Secretary will forward the correspondence only to the intended recipients. However, prior to forwarding any correspondence, the Corporate Secretary will review it and, in her discretion, not forward correspondence deemed to be of a commercial nature or otherwise not appropriate for review by the Directors.
