Kraft Heinz today also announced that Berkshire Hathaway Inc. (together with its affiliates, “Berkshire Hathaway”) has informed the Company that, consistent with its other non-controlled investments, it will no longer hold Board seats on Kraft Heinz. As such, Timothy Kenesey and Alicia Knapp have stepped down from the Board due to their relationship with Berkshire Hathaway. With these changes, Kraft Heinz has reduced the size of its Board to 10 members.

Mr. Kenesey’s and Ms. Knapp’s decisions are not the result of any disagreement with management or the Board related to the Company’s operations, policies or practices.
