Appointment of Michael C. Creedon, Jr. and Anneliese Olson to the Domino’s Pizza, Inc. Board of Directors

On July 14, 2026, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Domino’s Pizza, Inc. (the “Company”) appointed Michael C. Creedon, Jr. and Anneliese Olson each to serve as a director on the Board, effective July 15, 2026, and increased the size of the Board from eight directors to ten directors effective with such appointments.

 

Mr. Creedon and Ms. Olson were each appointed on the recommendation of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board and will stand for re-election to the Board at the Company’s 2027 annual meeting of shareholders.

 

Mr. Creedon currently serves as Chief Executive Officer of Dollar Tree, Inc. (Nasdaq: DLTR). He joined Dollar Tree as Chief Operating Officer in 2022 and was appointed Chief Executive Officer in 2024. He has served on the Dollar Tree Board of Directors since 2025. Before joining Dollar Tree, Mr. Creedon held several senior leadership positions at Advance Auto Parts, culminating in his role as President of U.S. Stores. Earlier in his career, he held leadership roles at Tyco International and ADT Security.

 

Ms. Olson has served as President, Imaging, Printing and Solutions of HP Inc. (NYSE: HPQ) since November 2024 and has over 30 years of experience at HP. Prior to her current role, Ms. Olson served in various leadership positions within HP, including as Senior Vice President & Managing Director, North America from September 2023 to November 2024, and as Senior Vice President & Chief Operating Officer, Worldwide Print from November 2019 to April 2022. She has held other senior positions throughout her career with HP, bringing a wealth of international experience having lived and worked in Asia Pacific for more than seven years.

 

Mr. Creedon and Ms. Olson were appointed as members of the Board’s Audit Committee. The Board has determined that each of Mr. Creedon and Ms. Olson satisfies the definition of “independent director” under the Nasdaq listing standards, including the requirements with respect to service on the Audit Committee.

 

Each of Mr. Creedon and Ms. Olson will be entitled to the annual compensation paid to the Company’s non-employee directors. A summary of the compensation the Company provides its non-employee directors is described under the heading “Compensation of Directors” on page 68 of the Company’s definitive proxy statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 10, 2026. There is no arrangement or understanding between either Mr. Creedon or Ms. Olson and any other person pursuant to which either was selected as a director.
