Item 5.02 | Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers |
On December 22, 2008, David J. Wenstrup, who has been a director of the Company since 2001, resigned from the Company’s Board of Directors. Mr. Wenstrup represented Warburg Pincus (“WP”), the Company’s principal stockholder, on the Company’s Board of Directors and his decision to resign from the Company’s Board relates to his resignation from WP. In that regard, Mr. Wenstrup has advised the Company that his resignation was not the result of any disagreement between himself and the Company on any matter relating to the Company’s operations, policies or practices.
In accordance with the Company’s By-Laws, the Board of Directors has authority to fill the vacancy on the Board that results from Mr. Wenstrup’s resignation, and the director appointed to fill that vacancy will serve until the next annual meeting of stockholders and until his or her successor is elected and qualified. Additionally, WP has the right under a stockholders agreement with the Company to propose for nomination two persons to serve on the Company’s Board of Directors (following the resignation of Mr. Wenstrup, WP’s remaining representative on the Board is Joel Ackerman). In accordance with its obligations under the stockholders agreement, the Company intends to inquire of WP as to whether it wishes to propose for nomination another person to serve on the Board at this time. Any person proposed for appointment to the Board by WP will be subject to the determination of the Company’s Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee that such person is qualified to serve on the Company’s Board of Directors.
