On February 26, 2019, the Board of the Company unanimously voted to increase the number of directors on the Board from nine to ten, and appoint Roxanne Taylor as a Class II director, effective immediately. Ms. Taylor’s term as a member of the Board will expire at the meeting of stockholders to be held in 2020, at which time she is expected to stand for re-election.
Ms. Taylor was granted a restricted stock unit award for 29,600 shares of the Company’s Class A common stock. The award will vest as to 25% of the shares subject to the award on the first anniversary of the grant date, and the remaining 75% of the shares subject to the award in 12 substantially equal quarterly installments thereafter, subject to her continued service on the Board on the vesting dates. Ms. Taylor was also granted a pro-rata restricted stock unit award for 2,898 shares of the Company’s Class A common stock. The award will vest on the day prior to the Company’s next annual stockholder meeting, subject to her continued service on the Board on such date. The award is subject to the terms and conditions of the Company’s 2015 Equity Incentive Plan and the related award agreement. Furthermore, Ms. Taylor is also entitled to an annual cash retainer for her service on the Board in accordance with the Company's director compensation policy.
In connection with her appointment to the Board, Ms. Taylor will execute the Company’s standard form of indemnity agreement for directors, which was filed as Exhibit 10.8 to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K (File No. 001-37570) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 26, 2018.
There is no arrangement or understanding between Ms. Taylor and any other person pursuant to which Ms. Taylor was elected as a director of the Company. There are no family relationships between Ms. Taylor and any director or executive officer of the Company, and, other than as described above, no transactions involving Ms. Taylor that would require disclosure under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.
