Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
On August 8, 2014, Inland Real Estate Corporation (NYSE: IRC) (the “Company”) announced that its board of directors has appointed Meredith Wise Mendes to join the Company’s board as a director. The board has determined that Ms. Mendes qualifies as an independent director under the New York Stock Exchange listing standards and the Company’s bylaws. A copy of the press release announcing the appointment of Ms. Mendes is attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 99.1.
As a non-employee director, Ms. Mendes will receive the same compensation and benefit opportunities as other non-employee directors, which opportunities are described under “Director Compensation” in the Company’s Definitive Annual Meeting Proxy Statement filed with the SEC on April 30, 2014. Each director is paid an annual fee equal to $45,000, plus $1,200 for each meeting of the board or any committee attended in person and $1,000 for each meeting attended via telephone. Each non-employee director is also annually granted shares of restricted stock with a value of $60,000, subject to ratable vesting over a three-year period. The Company has adopted a minimum stock ownership policy that will apply to Ms. Mendes which provides that each non-employee director of the Company must, within four years of becoming a director and thereafter for the duration of his or her membership on the board, accumulate and hold an amount of shares of the Company’s common stock that is not less in value than $240,000.
Other than the aforementioned director compensation arrangements, there is not any arrangement or understanding between Ms. Mendes and any other person pursuant to which she was selected as a director of the Company.
Since the beginning of the last fiscal year, the Company has not been, and is not currently proposed to be, a participant in any related party transaction with Ms. Mendes that would require disclosure under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.
