EXPLANATORY NOTE

On May 19, 2025, Easterly Government Properties, Inc. filed a Current Report on Form 8-K under Item 5.02 (the “Original Report”). Due to a clerical error, the incorrect item number was inadvertently tagged in the submission header of the Original Report. This Amendment No. 1 on Form 8-K/A is being filed for the sole purpose of correcting the submission header tagging in the Original Report to refer to Item 5.02 rather than to Item 5.01. All disclosures contained in the Original Report remain unchanged.

Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

Effective May 13, 2025, Easterly Government Properties, Inc. (the “Company”) appointed Brian M. Colantuoni, the Company’s Senior Vice President and Chief Accounting Officer, as the Company’s principal accounting officer. Allison E. Marino, the Company’s Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer, previously served as principal accounting officer and will continue to serve as the Company’s principal financial officer.

Mr. Colantuoni, 39, has served as the Company’s Senior Vice President and Chief Accounting Officer since March 2025. Mr. Colantuoni previously served as an Audit Principal at BDO USA, P.C. (“BDO”) from 2022 to 2024 where he focused on REITs and other real estate focused companies. Prior to his tenure at BDO, Mr. Colantuoni served, from 2008 to 2022, as Audit Director and in a variety of other roles in the Asset and Wealth Management group at PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP specializing in the real estate sector. Mr. Colantuoni earned his B.S. in Business Administration with a concentration in accounting from Christopher Newport University and a Masters in Accountancy from the College of William and Mary.

There were no arrangements or understandings between Mr. Colantuoni and any other persons pursuant to which Mr. Colantuoni received his appointment. Mr. Colantuoni does not have any family relationships subject to disclosure under Item 401(d) of Regulation S-K or any direct or indirect material interest in any transaction required to be disclosed pursuant to Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.

In connection with his appointment, Mr. Colantuoni was awarded a grant of shares of restricted common stock of the Company having a value of approximately $200,000, which will vest two years from the grant date, subject to Mr. Colantuoni’s continued service with the Company.

The Company and Mr. Colantuoni also entered into an indemnification agreement in substantially the same form as the Company has entered into with its executive officers. The indemnification agreement requires, among other matters, that the Company indemnify and advance expenses to Mr. Colantuoni to the fullest extent permitted by Maryland law for all expenses and liabilities arising out of any proceeding involving Mr. Colantuoni by reason of his service as an officer of the Company.
