On June 28, 2012, Sally K. Richardson, 79, announced her retirement as a director of the Company. Ms. Richardson is retiring solely for personal reasons, and not as the result of or in connection with any disagreement with the Company or its officers, including any matter relating to the Company’s business operations, financial statements, policies, or practices.

At the time of her retirement, Ms. Richardson was serving as a Class II director whose term would expire at the Company’s 2013 annual meeting of stockholders, and as the Chairwoman of the Board’s Compliance Committee. Ms. Richardson was also a member of the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee and the Compensation Committee.

In connection with Ms. Richardson’s retirement and in recognition of her decade of service to the Company as a director, the Board has approved a one-time cash payment to Ms. Richardson in the amount of $350,000.

Effective June 28, 2012, upon the recommendation of the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee, the Board appointed Garrey E. Carruthers, currently a Class I director of the Company, as Chairman of the Compliance Committee.
