Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
Departure of Director
On February 9, 2021, D. Keith Grossman advised the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of ViewRay, Inc. (the “Company”) of his resignation from the Board, effective immediately. Mr. Grossman’s resignation from the Board did not result from a disagreement with the Company or any of its officers or other directors on any matters relating to the operations, policies or practices of the Company.
Appointment of Director
On February 9, 2021, to fill the vacancy created by Mr. Grossman’s resignation, the Board appointed Phillip M. Spencer to the Board, effective immediately. Mr. Spencer will serve as a Class I director with an initial term expiring at the Company’s 2022 Annual Meeting of Shareholders. Additionally, Mr. Spencer has been appointed to serve on the Compensation Committee of the Board.
Mr. Spencer has over 20 years of leadership experience in the cable and technology industries. He has served as President and CEO as well as a member of the board of directors of MBI (Mega-Broadband Investments), a private cable and communications company, since 2018. Mr. Spencer serves as a member of the board of directors of Halftime Institute, a leadership organization, since October 2020. He served as a member of the board of directors of the Truman Medical Foundation, a non-profit medical provider that serves as the public health system for residents of Jackson County and Kansas City, Missouri, from August 2015 to August 2018. Mr. Spencer served as the CEO and a member of the board of directors for Rural Broadband Investments LLC, a rural cable provider, from October 2012 until its acquisition in May 2017. He holds a B.S. from Marquette University. We believe Mr. Spencer is qualified to serve on our board of directors based on his extensive technical experience and operational leadership expertise.
There is no arrangement or understanding between Mr. Spencer and any other person pursuant to which he was appointed as a director of the Company. Additionally, there is no transaction between Mr. Spencer and the Company that would require disclosure under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K. The Board has determined that Mr. Spencer is independent under the listing standards of the NASDAQ Global Market.
As a non-employee director, Mr. Spencer will receive the compensation paid to all non-employee directors of the Company.
