On October 3, 2025, Richard B. Clark was appointed to the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of UDR, Inc. (the “Company”), effective October 3, 2025. There are no arrangements or understandings between Mr. Clark and any other persons regarding his appointment to the Board. Pursuant to the Company’s Amended and Restated Bylaws, the number of directors on the Board was increased from eight to nine by resolution adopted by the Board prior to Mr. Clark’s appointment. In addition, the Board appointed Mr. Clark to serve on the Nominating and Governance Committee of the Board and the Audit and Risk Management Committee of the Board.

Mr. Clark is an independent director as defined under the listing standards of the New York Stock Exchange. There are no related person transactions, within the meaning of Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission between Mr. Clark and the Company or any of its subsidiaries.

In connection with his appointment, Mr. Clark will be eligible for compensation under the Company’s independent director compensation program. Under the program, each independent director (other than the Lead Independent Director) receives an annual retainer fee of $80,000 as well as an annual grant of $200,000 in value of shares of restricted stock, Class 1 LTIP Units or Class 1 Performance LTIP Units. Each independent director has the option to receive the cash portion of his or her compensation in cash, in restricted stock, in Class 1 LTIP Units, in Class 1 Performance LTIP Units or in a combination thereof. Given the timing of his appointment to the Board, Mr. Clark will receive a prorated portion of the compensation provided for under the independent director program. The Company will enter into an indemnification agreement with Mr. Clark in the form of the Company’s standard form of indemnification agreement.

The Company’s press release announcing the appointment of Mr. Clark is attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated by reference herein.
