On August 15, 2022, the board of directors (the "Board") of The Hartford Financial Services Group, Inc. (the "Company") elected Edmund Reese as director of the Board effective on October 17, 2022.

The Board has determined that Mr. Reese does not have a direct or indirect interest in any transaction with the Company that would qualify as a related party transaction under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K, and that he meets the applicable independence requirements of the New York Stock Exchange and the Company's Corporate Governance Guidelines.

As compensation for the remainder of the 2022-2023 Board service year, Mr. Reese will receive a pro rata portion of the Company’s annual cash retainer for non-management directors of $110,000 in the amount of $64,400 and a pro rata portion of the Company’s equity compensation annual retainer of $180,000 in the form of restricted stock units valued at $105,300. The restricted stock units will be granted on the second trading day following the filing of the Company’s Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2022, based on the Company’s closing stock price on the grant date.

In addition, Mr. Reese will participate in other non-management director compensation arrangements described in the Company’s 2022 proxy statement, including receiving $100,000 of Group Term Life and $750,000 of Accidental Death and Dismemberment insurance and reimbursement for all travel expenses incurred in connection with his Board service.
