Effective as of March 12, 2026, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Redwire Corporation (the “Company”), upon recommendation by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board (the “Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee”), appointed Frank Calvelli to fill the vacancy on the Board resulting from previously announced resignations. Mr. Calvelli will serve as a Class III director with a term of office expiring at the Company’s 2027 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

The Board has determined that Mr. Calvelli is independent under the New York Stock Exchange listing standards. There was no arrangement or understanding between Mr. Calvelli and any other person pursuant to which Mr. Calvelli was selected as a director, and the Company is not aware of any related transactions or relationships between Mr. Calvelli and the Company that would require disclosure under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.

Previously, Mr. Calvelli was a Senior Vice President at Booz Allen Hamilton from July 2021 to April 2022. From 2012 to 2020, he served as the Principal Deputy Director of the National Reconnaissance Office (NRO), where he managed the day-to-day operations of the 3,500-person agency and its satellite and ground systems portfolio. Mr. Calvelli also currently serves on the Strategic Advisory Board of Parsons Corporation (NYSE: PSN) and as an instructor at Pardus Inc. He previously served on the Board of Directors of Altamira Technologies from June 2025 until its acquisition in January 2026. Mr. Calvelli holds a Bachelor’s degree in Computer and Information Sciences from the State University of New York at Potsdam and an M.B.A. from Loyola University Maryland.
