On June 6, 2022, Marla Yvonne Kilpatrick, Global Controller and Chief Accounting Officer of Weber Inc. (“Weber” or the “Company”) notified the Company that she intends to retire in early calendar year 2023. To support the transition to a new principal accounting officer, Ms. Kilpatrick will (i) leave her role as Global Controller on June 7, 2022, (ii) leave her role as Chief Accounting Officer and the Company’s principal accounting officer, effective on the date that Weber files its 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K, and (iii) retire from the Company in early calendar year 2023.

In light of Ms. Kilpatrick’s planned retirement and to promote a seamless transition, on June 8, 2022, Weber named Michael P. Bayer to be Global Controller, with immediate effect.
