Block Director Amy Brooks received an automatic annual grant of 4,343 restricted stock units (RSUs) on June 17, 2025, as part of the company's Outside Director Compensation Policy. The RSUs were awarded at $0 cost and represent the right to receive an equivalent number of Block Class A Common Stock shares.

Key details of the transaction:

• Following the grant, Brooks now beneficially owns 25,743 shares directly
• The RSUs will fully vest on the earlier of June 17, 2026, or the date of Block's next annual stockholder meeting
