On December 11, 2017, Science Applications International Corporation (the “Company”) announced that Mark J. Johnson was appointed as a member of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) for an initial term beginning on December 12, 2017, (the “Effective Date”) and expiring at the Company’s 2018 annual meeting of stockholders. As of the Effective Date, Mr. Johnson will also become a member of the Audit Committee of the Board.

Mr. Johnson is currently the Co-Founder and the Managing Partner of Astra Capital Management, a private equity firm that invests in growth businesses in the communications and technology services sector.

In connection with his service on the Board, Mr. Johnson will receive a grant of restricted stock units (“RSUs”) of the Company with an aggregate value of $50,000 and stock options with an aggregate value of $25,000. Mr. Johnson will then be entitled to receive the standard annual cash and equity compensation paid to all directors of the Company. The annual cash compensation paid to all directors currently consists of a retainer of $60,000 and meeting fees of $2,000 for each Board and committee meeting attended by the director.
