As previously disclosed, effective July 31, 2026, Warner Music Group Corp. (the “Company”) appointed Louis Dickler as the Acting Chief Financial Officer. In connection with Mr. Dickler’s assumption of additional responsibilities as Acting Chief Financial Officer, on September 4, 2026, Warner Music Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“WMG”) entered into an amendment (the “Amendment”) to Mr. Dickler’s employment agreement (the “Employment Agreement”).
Pursuant to the Amendment, Mr. Dickler will serve as Acting Chief Financial Officer, in addition to his current role as Senior Vice President, Global Controller & Chief Accounting Officer, from July 31, 2026 until a date determined by WMG in its sole discretion that is expected to follow the commencement of employment of a new Chief Financial Officer (the “Transition Period”). Following the end of the Transition Period, Mr. Dickler will continue in his role solely as Senior Vice President, Global Controller & Chief Accounting Officer.
During the Transition Period, Mr. Dickler’s annual base salary will be $1,000,000. Following the Transition Period, his annual base salary will be $650,000 for the remainder of the term of the Employment Agreement. The Amendment also provides that the aggregate

The foregoing description of the Amendment is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the complete text of the Amendment, a copy of which will be filed with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2026.
