The Board determined that it would be in the best interests of Wiley and its shareholders for William J. Pesce to stand for re-election at the 2026 Annual Meeting, although he previously attained the age of 75. This determination reflects Mr. Pesce's nearly three decades of service, including 13 years as Wiley's President and CEO; deep familiarity with the Company's markets, business models, and strategic direction; leadership of the Board's Director Mentorship Program; active involvement in the Company's recent M&A activities; and support during the recent transition in the Company's Research leadership.
