In connection with her election to the Board, Ms. Cook was also named to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board. Ms. Cook will serve until the Company’s 2019 annual meeting of stockholders. Upon her election, Ms. Cook was granted a restricted stock award under the Company’s stock incentive plan for that number of shares of the Company’s common stock having an aggregate grant date value equal to $30,000, based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the New York Stock Exchange on the date of grant, which fully vests on the first anniversary of the date of grant. Thereafter, Ms. Cook will be compensated in accordance with the Company’s standard compensation policies and practices for independent members of its Board, as disclosed in the Company’s Proxy Statement for its 2018 Annual Meeting of Stockholders filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on March 27, 2018.

Ms. Cook was not selected as a director pursuant to any arrangements or understandings with the Company or with any other person, and there are no related party transactions between Ms. Cook and the Company that would require disclosure under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.
