# KBR board adopts amended bylaws on director-nomination notices and exclusive forum

## Summary
- Board amended and restated KBR's bylaws on October 13, 2026, effective immediately upon adoption.
- Advance-notice provision clarified: a board vacancy from a director's resignation or departure is not an increase in the number of directors to be elected under Section 9(A)(3).
- Exclusive forum clause revised so it does not apply to Securities Act of 1933 claims, for which federal district courts have exclusive jurisdiction.
- Remaining changes described as clarifying, conforming and ministerial; full text filed as Exhibit 3.1.
- Report signed October 16, 2026 by Sonia Galindo, EVP, General Counsel & Corporate Secretary.
