A copy of the press release issued by the Company is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report and will be published on the Company's website at www.nblmidstream.com.
The Company’s press release announcing its financial results for its fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2016 contains non-GAAP financial measures. Generally, a non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company’s performance, financial position, or cash flows that either excludes or includes amounts that are not normally excluded or included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP. Pursuant to the requirements of Regulation G, the Company has included in the press release quantitative reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.
In accordance with General Instruction B.2. of Form 8-K, the information set forth herein and in the press release is deemed to be "furnished" and shall not be "filed" for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act").
Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
(d) | Election of Director |
On October 27, 2016, the sole member of Noble Midstream GP LLC, the general partner (the “General Partner”) of the Company, appointed Martin Salinas, Jr. as a member of the board of directors (the "Board") of the General Partner. Mr. Salinas was also appointed to the Audit Committee of the Board, effective as of such date.
The Board has determined that Mr. Salinas is independent for Board and Audit Committee purposes under the applicable standards of the New York Stock Exchange and rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
As a non-employee director, Mr. Salinas will receive the standard compensation for service on the Board as described in the Partnership’s prospectus for its initial public offering, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 15, 2016, provided that each non-employee director’s annual cash retainer for fiscal year 2016 will be pro-rated to reflect his or her actual length of service during the year. In connection with his or her appointment, to the Board, each non-employee director also received a one-time grant of restricted common units under the Partnership’s 2016 Long-Term Incentive Plan with an aggregate value of $120,000. The form of Non-Employee Director Restricted Unit Agreement under the Partnership’s 2016 Long-Term Incentive Plan is attached as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.
Mr. Salinas was not appointed pursuant to any arrangement or understanding with any other person, and there are no transactions with Mr. Salinas that would be reportable under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.
