Item 5.02
Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
On July 1, 2018, the sole member of Noble Midstream GP LLC, the general partner (the “General Partner”) of Noble Midstream Partners LP (the “Partnership”), appointed Thomas H. Walker as a member of the board of directors (the “Board”) of the General Partner. Mr. Walker is currently Senior Vice President, U.S. Onshore of Noble Energy, Inc. (“Noble Energy”) and was appointed to fill the vacancy left by Charles J. Rimer, Senior Vice President, Global Services of Noble Energy, who resigned from the Board immediately prior to Mr. Walker’s appointment. Mr. Rimer did not resign because of a disagreement with the General Partner or the Partnership on any matter relating to the operations, policies or practices of the General Partner or the Partnership.
Mr. Walker is a Noble Energy designee to the Board. Officers or employees of Noble Energy who also serve as directors of the General Partner do not receive additional compensation for their service as a director of the General Partner. Accordingly, Mr. Walker will not receive additional compensation for his services as a director of the General Partner. Mr. Walker will have rights to indemnification pursuant to the First Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership of Noble Midstream Partners LP.
Mr. Walker was not appointed pursuant to any arrangement or understanding with any other person, and there are no transactions with Mr. Walker that would be reportable under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.
