On August 23, 2014, Kenneth A. Viellieu, a member of the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of the Company, notified the Board that he will (i) not stand for re-election at the Company’s 2014 annual meeting of stockholders to be held in November 2014 and (ii) continue to serve as a member of the Board and the Compensation Committee through the date of the Company’s 2014 annual meeting of stockholders (the “Notice”).

Mr. Viellieu, a Managing Director and Head of the Chicago office of Moelis & Company, an investment banking firm, has served as a member of the Board since April 2009. In light of increasing commitments, Mr. Viellieu has determined that this is an appropriate time for him to step down. Mr. Viellieu does not have a dispute with the Company over any matters, policy or otherwise.
The Company’s Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee has been actively searching for director candidates. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee commenced these searches a considerable period of time prior to and for reasons unrelated to the Notice.
