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

On March 1, 2016, Marcus & Millichap, Inc. (the “Company”) announced that John J. Kerin will retire as President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company and step down from the Company’s board of directors, both effective as of March 31, 2016. Mr. Kerin intends to provide consulting services and assist the Company as a senior advisor following his retirement.

The board has promoted Hessam Nadji, age 50, to President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company and appointed him to serve on the board, both effective as of March 31, 2016. Mr. Nadji joined the Company in 1996 as Vice President of Research, became a Senior Vice President in 1997, was appointed Managing Director in 2000 and became Chief Strategy Officer and Senior Vice President responsible for the Company’s specialty brokerage divisions as well as research, advisory services and marketing in 2013. Mr. Nadji was promoted to Senior Executive Vice President in May 2015.

Mr. Nadji’s term as director will expire at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders in 2017. Mr. Nadji’s appointment to the board is based, in part, on his position as the President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, extensive knowledge of the Company and over 25 years of experience working in the real estate industry.

There are no family relationships between any director or executive officer of the Company and Mr. Nadji, and no transactions reportable under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K in which Mr. Nadji has a direct or indirect material interest. Further, there are no arrangements or understandings between Mr. Nadji and any other person pursuant to which he was promoted or appointed to serve on the board. Mr. Nadji will be appointed to the executive committee of the board.

A copy of the press release announcing the above changes is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report.
