Nomination and Election of the 2017 Director Nominee Clause Samples

Nomination and Election of the 2017 Director Nominee. It is currently anticipated that one of the existing directors whose term expires at the 2017 Annual Meeting intends to retire and cease any service as a director (the “Retiring Director”). The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee (the “Nominating Committee”) is undertaking a process to select a candidate to replace the Retiring Director that will stand for election as a director on the Board at the 2017 Annual Meeting (the “2017 Director Nominee”) with a term expiring at the 2020 Annual Meeting. Promptly following the execution of this Agreement, FPA shall have the right to submit potential candidates (the “FPA Candidates”) to the Nominating Committee to be considered as part of its 2017 Director Nominee process. The FPA Candidates: (i) shall qualify as “independent” pursuant to the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. listing standards, (ii) shall not be an Affiliate or Associate of FPA (as such terms are defined in Section 2 below), and (iii) shall have credentials consistent with the criteria established by the Nominating Committee as to director qualifications (such criteria as has been provided to FPA in writing prior to the execution of this Agreement) (clauses (i)-(iii), together, the “Director Criteria”). The Nominating Committee shall give due and careful consideration to the FPA Candidates and share with FPA information pertaining to the other final proposed candidates it considers for the 2017 Director Nominee position. However, if no 2017 Director Nominee has been nominated by the time of the mailing of the Company’s definitive proxy statement for the 2017 Annual Meeting, the Board (i) shall take all necessary actions to set the size of the Board at 9 seats prior to the 2017 Annual Meeting and (ii) recommend, support and solicit proxies for the election of only three nominees at the 2017 Annual Meeting (including the New Independent Director).
