Mr. Flanigan, who currently chairs the Board’s Audit and Finance Committee, will succeed Manuel A. Fernandez, who has served in the role since 2019. The Company also announced that, as part of its commitment to ongoing Board refreshment, Mr. Fernandez and directors William F. Dawson, Jr., Laura Flanagan and Scott D. Ferguson will not stand for reelection to the Board at the Annual Meeting. The foregoing was not the result of any disagreement between any such director and the Company or the Board on any matter relating to the Company’s operations, policies or practices. Following the Annual Meeting, the Board will decrease in size from 14 to 10 directors, eight of whom will be independent.
