Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

On November 7, 2023, Ms. Karen Brodkin notified Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. (the “Company”) of her resignation from the board of directors (the “Board”) of the Company, which became effective November 8, 2023. Ms. Brodkin’s resignation was due to her desire to devote more of her time to other professional commitments. In tendering her resignation, Ms. Brodkin expressed no disagreement with the Company.

On November 8, 2023, the Board appointed Mr. Robert “Chip” Harris II to the Board to fill the vacancy created by Ms. Brodkin’s resignation. His term will expire at the Company’s annual meeting of stockholders held in 2024 or until his successor is duly elected and qualified or his earlier death, resignation, retirement, disqualification or removal. Mr. Harris will serve on the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board, and will serve as Chair of the Compensation Committee. Mr. Harris previously served as member of the Board from December 2014 to March 2023.

Mr. Harris will receive the standard non-employee director compensation for serving on the Board, including a pro-rated portion of the annual grant of restricted stock units, which will vest in equal one-third installments on the first, second and third anniversaries of the date of the Company’s 2023 annual meeting of stockholders (based upon continued service). In addition, the Company and Mr. Harris expect to enter into the Company’s standard form of indemnification agreement for its non-employee directors to be effective as of November 8, 2023, which requires the Company to indemnify each indemnitee to the fullest extent permitted by the Maryland General Corporation Law. For a description of the Company’s compensation program for its non-employee directors, please see the Company’s Proxy Statement for its 2023 annual meeting of stockholders, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 31, 2023. For a description of the Company’s indemnification agreements, please see the Company’s Proxy Statement for its 2015 annual meeting of stockholders, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 2, 2015. Mr. Harris’ son, Jack, was a former employee of the Company in its investments department, who, before his resignation in September, earned approximately $291,666. His compensation was comparable with other Company employees in similar positions.

On November 13, 2023, the Company issued a press release announcing the appointment of Mr. Harris to its Board. A copy of the press release is furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.1. Exhibit 99.1 shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or the Exchange Act, or otherwise subject to the liabilities under that Section and shall not be deemed to be incorporated by reference into any filing of the Company under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Exchange Act.
