Directors Andrew McNally IV and G. J. Ratcliffe, and Assistant General Counsel and Assistant Secretary, John Mulvihill (collectively, the "Trustees"), have advised Hubbell Incorporated that, effective June 6, 2014, they have resigned as co-trustees of the trusts made under the Indentures dated September 2, 1957 made by Louie E. Roche and August 23, 1957 made by Harvey Hubbell (the "Trusts").
The Trustee's resignations and the appointment of a certain third party trust company as successor trustee were made in accordance with the Superior Court of Connecticut's stipulated final judgment made on May 27, 2014. The stipulated judgment was entered in accordance with the terms of a settlement agreement relating to the lawsuit brought against Messrs. McNally and Ratcliffe, both individually and as trustees, together with two former trustees, by one beneficiary under the Trusts, as disclosed in the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Company on April 11, 2008.
The Company was not named as a defendant in the lawsuit.
