ITEM 5.02 DEPARTURE OF DIRECTORS OR CERTAIN OFFICERS; ELECTION OF DIRECTORS; APPOINTMENT OF CERTAIN OFFICERS; COMPENSATORY ARRANGEMENTS OF CERTAIN OFFICERS
As previously reported in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on December 9, 2019, the Reverend Dr. Christoph Keller, III has informed the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of PotlatchDeltic Corporation (the “Company”) of his intention not to stand for re-election at the Company’s 2020 annual meeting. Also, as previously reported in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on August 30, 2019, Mr. John S. Moody retired from the Board effective August 30, 2019.
In connection with the vacancies resulting from the decision of the Reverend Keller not to stand for re-election at the Company’s 2020 annual meeting and Mr. Moody’s retirement from the Board in August 2019 (both Dr. Keller and Mr. Moody are Class III directors), the Board has determined to decrease the size of the Board from 12 to 10 directors and reduce the number of directors in Class III (with a term expiring in 2020) to three directors effective upon commencement of the 2020 Annual Meeting. To rebalance the classes of directors on the Board so that each class will be as nearly equal in number as possible, Mr. Eric J. Cremers on February 14, 2020 agreed to resign as a Class I director effective upon commencement of the 2020 annual meeting and to stand for re-election at the 2020 annual meeting as a Class III director. The resignation of Mr. Cremers is being effected solely to rebalance the Board classes.
