On September 13, 2024, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of MacKenzie Realty Capital, Inc. (OTCQX: MKZR; the “Company”), met to consider an increase in the size of the Board from 3 members to 4 members and to consider the nomination of Kjerstin Hatch to serve as a director. On September 23, 2024, in connection with the nomination of Ms. Hatch to the Board, the Audit, Nominating, and Compensation Committees, the Board determined that Ms. Hatch would qualify as an “independent director” under the rules and regulations of the NASDAQ Stock Market and the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended after reviewing Ms. Hatch’s answers to a questionnaire and discussions with her regarding potential related party transactions and independence matters and review with counsel.

Accordingly, on September 23, 2024, the Board approved by written consent an increase in the size of Board from 3 to 4 members, as well as an increase in the size of the Audit Committee and the Nominating Committee of the Board from 2 members to 3 members. It also approved the formation of the Compensation Committee of the Board with three members, and the Board appointed Ms. Hatch to fill the vacancy on the Board and appointed her as a member of the Audit, Nominating, and Compensation Committees and appointed Messrs. Dozois and Frame to the Compensation Committee and adopted a Compensation Committee Charter. Ms. Hatch’s appointment to the Board and the Audit, Nominating, and Compensation Committees is effective immediately, and she will hold office until 2024 annual meeting of stockholders and her successor is duly elected and qualified or, if earlier, her death, resignation or removal.

Ms. Hatch will receive compensation for her service in accordance with the Company’s Non-Employee Director Compensation Program, under which she will receive a pro-rated annual retainer of $48,000 for her service as a non-employee director. In addition, Ms. Hatch will receive $1,000 plus reimbursement of reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with attending each Board meeting in person and $500 for each telephonic meeting, and also receive $500 plus reimbursement of reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with attending each committee meeting. In addition, as the chair of the Compensation Committee she receives an annual fee of $1,000.

There is no arrangement or understanding between Ms. Hatch and any other person pursuant to which Ms. Hatch was appointed as a director of the Company. Ms. Hatch does not have any related party transactions that are required to be disclosed under Item 5.02(d)(4) of Form 8-K and Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.

On September 25, 2024, the Company issued a press release announcing the appointment of Ms. Hatch to the Board. A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 hereto and is hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 5.02.
