Appointment of Anthony Cabot

On October 4, 2024, the Board of Directors of Skillz Inc. (the “Board”) appointed Mr. Anthony Cabot to the Board, effective immediately. Mr. Cabot, 68, held the position of Distinguished Fellow of Gaming Law at the UNLV Boyd School of Law until May 2023, overseeing the gaming law program where for over two decades, he shared his expertise with students, legislators and regulators. Prior to transitioning to academia full-time in March 2018, Professor Cabot spent 37 years practicing gaming law. Notably, he chaired the gaming law practice and served on the executive committee at Lewis Roca Rothgerber Christie LLP. Additionally, he is a founding member and former president of the International Masters of Gaming Law.

Also, on October 4, 2024, the Board appointed Mr. Cabot to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, effective immediately. The Board affirmatively determined that Mr. Cabot (i) is an independent director under the applicable rules of the NYSE and as such term is defined in Rule 10A-3(b)(1) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and (ii) meets all applicable requirements for membership on the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee.

There is no arrangement or understanding between Mr. Cabot and any other persons pursuant to which Mr. Cabot was appointed as a director. Furthermore, there are no family relationships between Mr. Cabot and any other director or executive officer of the Company and there are no transactions between Mr. Cabot and the Company that would be required to be reported under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.

Mr. Cabot will receive compensation consistent with the Company’s compensation program for non-employee directors, as described in the Company’s proxy statement, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on May 1, 2023.
