On July 1, 2013, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of LSI Industries Inc. (the “Company”) elected Robert P. Beech to serve as a director until the next annual meeting of shareholders and until his successor is duly elected and qualified. The Board has determined that Mr. Beech is an independent director in accordance with guidelines that the Company has adopted, which guidelines comply with the listing standards set forth by The Nasdaq Stock Market. Mr. Beech has been appointed to serve on the Board’s Audit Committee, Compensation Committee, and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee.
Mr. Beech is currently an Entrepreneur-in-Residence at CincyTech, LLC (dba CincyTechUSA), a seed-stage venture investment organization focused on strengthening the Southwest Ohio economy. Prior to joining CincyTech, Mr. Beech served as the CEO (2004-2009) and Senior Vice President of Corporate Development & Communications (2009-2012) for Intrexon Corporation, a privately held biotechnology company. Prior to 2003, Mr. Beech served as CEO of Digineer, Inc., an international healthcare information technology company he founded in 1986 and led until 2002.
There is no arrangement or understanding between Mr. Beech and any other person pursuant to which Mr. Beech was elected as a director of the Company. There have been no transactions nor are there any proposed transactions between the Company and Mr. Beech that would require disclosure pursuant to Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.
