Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On March 3, 2016, CST Brands, Inc. (the "Company") entered into an agreement (the "JCP Investment Settlement Agreement") with JCP Investment Management, LLC and certain related investors (collectively, the "JCP Investment Group") and an agreement (the "Engine Capital Settlement Agreement" and, together with the JCP Investment Settlement Agreement, the "Settlement Agreements") with Engine Capital, L.P. and certain related investors (collectively, the "Engine Capital Group" and, together with the JCP Investment Group, the "Investor Groups").
In connection with the JCP Investment Settlement Agreement, the Company's Board of Directors (the "Board") appointed Thomas ("Tad") W. Dickson to the Board to fill the vacancy created by the resignation of William G. Moll, a Class III director, from the Board.  As a Class III director, Mr. Dickson will be included by the Company on its slate of nominees for re-election at the 2016 annual meeting of stockholders of the Company (the "2016 Annual Meeting"). In connection with the Engine Capital Settlement Agreement, the Company increased the size of the Board from 11 to 12 directors and appointed Rocky B. Dewbre to fill the newly created directorship. Pursuant to the Company's bylaws, Mr. Dewbre was appointed as a Class I director of the Board whose term will expire at the annual shareholders meeting in 2017 ("2017 Annual Meeting") and will stand for re-election at the 2017 Annual Meeting. Also, in connection with the Settlement Agreements, the Company issued a public statement to the effect that it is initiating a public process to review strategic alternatives (the "Strategic Review"). The Board also announced that it had formed a committee of outside, independent directors to oversee the Company's Strategic Review.
Pursuant to the JCP Investment Settlement Agreement and the Engine Capital Settlement Agreement, each of the JCP Investment Group and the Engine Capital Group, respectively, agreed not to nominate any director candidates to stand for election at the 2016 Annual Meeting.  In addition, the Settlement Agreements provide that, at the 2016 Annual Meeting and at each special meeting of stockholders held prior to the expiration of the Standstill Period (as defined below), each Investor Group will vote all of its shares of Company common stock in favor of the election of directors nominated by the Board and otherwise in accordance with the Board's recommendation, subject to certain exceptions for other extraordinary transactions and matters with a contrary recommendation from Institutional Shareholders Services or Glass Lewis & Co., LLC.
Each Settlement Agreement includes certain restrictions applicable from March 3, 2016 until the day that is 30 days prior to the expiration of the Company's advance notice period for the nomination of directors at the 2017 Annual Meeting (the "Standstill Period").  During the Standstill Period, each Investor Group is among other things restricted from engaging in any solicitation of proxies or consents with respect to the election or removal of directors or, with certain exceptions, any other matter or proposal, acquiring any assets of the Company or acquiring any voting stock that would result in either JCP Investment Group or Engine Capital Investment Group having beneficial ownership of more than 4.9% of the Company's outstanding voting stock.
The JCP Investment Settlement Agreement and Engine Capital Settlement Agreement are filed with this Form 8-K as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2, respectively, and incorporated by reference herein.  The foregoing description of each Settlement Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text thereof.

The Company entered into its standard indemnification agreement for directors with each New Director.  In connection with his appointment, each New Director, as a non-employee member of the Board, will receive cash compensation and a grant of CST
