**FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE** 

**Claude Mongeau resigns as Chair of Norfolk Southern Board** 

*New Chair to be elected at the next scheduled meeting of the Board of Directors* 

**ATLANTA, June 3, 2025 –** Norfolk Southern Corporation (NYSE: NSC) today announced Chairman Claude Mongeau has resigned from the Board of Directors this week for personal reasons. The board will elect a new chair at its next scheduled meeting later this month.

"We are deeply grateful for Claude's leadership over the past six years," said Norfolk Southern President and CEO Mark R. George. "He has put outsized time and effort into his service as the company navigated several challenges, ultimately stepping up as chair last year to successfully integrate our new board. He leaves Norfolk Southern a much stronger railroad than it was when he joined us."

"I am proud of the way the current board has come together to work collaboratively and constructively alongside the management team," Mongeau said. "It has been an honor to serve with them. I have every confidence the company is back on the right trajectory and has what it needs for continued success."

During his 22-year career at CN, he also served as executive vice president and chief financial officer and vice president strategic and financial planning. Mongeau currently serves as a director of Cenovus Energy.
