On June 15, 2020, the Company announced that it was terminating the previously announced strategic review process, and that the Company intended to implement certain strategic and other changes to its business, including the sale of its rail and logistics businesses, certain management changes and the initiation of future cash dividends. In connection with the management changes, on June 12, 2020, the Board decided to terminate Victor M. Garcia as President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, effective immediately. On June 14, 2020, Mr. Garcia resigned from the Board.
On June 12, 2020, the Board promoted Timothy B. Page to Executive Vice President, and Interim President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, and on June 14, 2020, following the resignation of Mr. Garcia from the Board, the Board appointed Mr. Page to the Board as a Class I director, each effective immediately. Mr. Page will continue to perform his duties as Chief Financial Officer of the Company in connection with this new role.
As part of the changes announced above, the Board, upon recommendation of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, approved a change in the nominations as Class I directors to be elected at the Annual Meeting. This Supplement is being filed to revise the slate of nominees for election as Class I directors by removing Victor M. Garcia, and adding Timothy B. Page to the slate of nominees for election at the Annual Meeting. The Company is also revising its proxy card to reflect the change in the slate of nominees for election at the Annual Meeting, which is enclosed with this Supplement.
