On June 20, 2017, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Manning & Napier, Inc. (the “Company”) appointed Joel Domino to fill a position on the Board, effective immediately. Mr. Domino has served as President and Chief Financial Officer of Kent Displays Inc. (“KDI”) since 2002.

Mr. Domino holds a B.A. in Accounting from Mount Union College as well as an M.B.A. with a concentration in Strategic Planning from California State University.

There is no arrangement or understanding between Mr. Domino and any other person pursuant to which Mr. Domino was selected as a director.
