In connection with Mr. Crate’s appointment, William C. Trimble, III will retire from his position as President and CEO of Easterly effective December 31, 2023.

“Bill has been a valuable partner for over a decade,” said Crate. “From the early days of establishing a private equity fund through taking our portfolio public and acquiring over eight million square feet of real estate, Bill has been a trusted collaborator,” he added.

“Darrell and I co-founded this great organization in 2015, and I have every confidence he and the team will continue to drive shareholder value,” said Trimble. “Further, I want to thank the Board of Directors and Easterly’s exemplary employees for their dedication. Serving as CEO has been an honor, and I look forward to seeing the company continue to flourish.”
