Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

 

On April 27, 2010, Andrea L. Wong joined the board of directors of Liberty Media Corporation.  Following Ms. Wong’s election, Liberty Media has a total of 10 directors, divided among 3 classes, with Ms. Wong to serve as a Class III member with a term expiring at the annual meeting of stockholders in 2010, which is currently scheduled to occur on June 24, 2010.  The Liberty Media board has determined that Ms. Wong qualifies as an independent director for purposes of The Nasdaq Stock Market rules as well as applicable rules and regulations adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission and will serve on each of the Compensation Committee and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the board.

 

In connection with her election to the board, the board determined to grant Ms. Wong under Liberty Media’s 2002 Nonemployee Director Incentive Plan, as amended, 3,235 restricted shares of Series A Liberty Interactive common stock, 295 restricted shares of the Series A Liberty Starz common stock and 530 restricted shares of Series A Liberty Capital common stock in each case, as of May 10, 2010 (the first full trading day following the release of Liberty Media’s first quarter 2010 financial information).  The restricted shares will vest on the second anniversary of the grant date, or on such earlier date that Ms. Wong ceases to be a director because of death or disability, and will be forfeited if Ms. Wong resigns or is removed from the board before the vesting date.

 

Prior to joining our board, Ms. Wong most recently held the position of President and CEO of Lifetime Entertainment Services.
