On November 7, 2019, Mary W. Savoy notified the Registrant's Board of Directors that she would retire as a director when her successor could be identified and appointed to the Board. On December 3, 2019, the Board of Directors appointed Edward M. Ellington, II as a director to succeed Ms. Savoy, and immediately thereafter Ms. Savoy retired from the Board. Mr. Ellington will serve for the remainder of Ms. Savoy's one-year term, which will expire at the annual meeting of the Registrant's shareholders in 2020.
There are no understandings or arrangements between Mr. Ellington and any other person pursuant to which Mr. Ellington was elected as a director. There are no relationships between Mr. Ellington and the Registrant that would require disclosure pursuant to Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.
As a non-employee director, Mr. Ellington will receive director fees for meetings of the Board of Directors and applicable committees as set by the Registrant from time to time.
The Registrant's Board of Directors expects to appoint Mr. Ellington to one or more committees of the Board of Directors at a later date. The Registrant will file an amendment to this Current Report on Form 8-K to report any such appointment within four business days after the information is determined or becomes available.
