| Item 5.02 | Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers. |
On June 11, 2024, Hwan-Yoon F. Chung advised EnerSys’ board of directors (the “Board”) of his decision not to stand for re-election to the Board for the upcoming annual meeting of the stockholders in 2024 (the “2024 Annual Meeting”) in order to focus on his other commitments.
| Item 8.01 | Other Events. |
On June 11, 2024, EnerSys, upon the recommendation of its Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, nominated Dave Habiger and Lauren Knausenberger, as nominees in the class of directors running for election to the Board at the 2024 Annual Meeting.
Our Corporate Governance Guidelines provide that a director who has reached the age of 75 may not be nominated for re-election, and therefore Arthur T. Katsaros and General Robert Magnus, USMC (Retired), will not be nominated for re-election at the 2024 Annual Meeting.
The Board appointed Paul J. Tufano to serve as Non-Executive Chair of the Board, effective upon Mr. Katsaros’ retirement. The Board also appointed Steven M. Fludder to replace Mr. Tufano as Chair of the Compensation Committee, effective upon Mr. Tufano’s appointment as Non-Executive Chair of the Board.
A copy of the press release announcing these matters is attached to this report as Exhibit 99.1.
