On July 15, 2024, Westlake Corporation (the “Company”) announced the following leadership transitions, effective July 15, 2024 (the “Effective Date”):

 

  •  

James Chao, formerly the Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”), transitioned to the position of Senior Chairman of the Board;

 

  •  

Albert Chao, formerly the President, Chief Executive Officer and Director of the Company, transitioned to the position of Executive Chairman of the Board; and

This leadership transition is the culmination of a thoughtful succession planning process by the Board to position the Company for the future.

In connection with his appointment as President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, Mr. Gilson was also appointed as President and Chief Executive Officer and a director of Westlake Chemical Partners GP LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and the general partner of Westlake Chemical Partners LP.

Prior to joining the Company, Mr. Gilson (age 60) served as President, Chief Executive Officer and Representative Director of Mitsubishi Chemical Group Corporation (formerly known as Mitsubishi Chemical Holdings Corporation), an international producer of specialty chemicals and industrial products, from April 2021 until April 2024. From September 2014 until December 2020, Mr. Gilson served as Chief Executive Officer of Roquette Frères, a family-owned global leader in plant-based ingredients and a leading provider of pharmaceutical excipients. Before that, Mr. Gilson served as Vice-Chairman and Chief Operating Officer of NuSil Technology LLC, a global manufacturer of medical- and space-grade silicone technology. Earlier in his career, Mr. Gilson held various leadership roles at Dow Corning Corporation, including Executive Vice President, Specialty Chemicals Business, before becoming Chief Executive Officer of Avantor Performance Materials, Inc. Mr. Gilson holds a Master of Science in Chemical Engineering from the University of Liege in Belgium and a Master of Business Administration from the International Institute for Management Development in Switzerland.

In connection with his appointment as President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, Mr. Gilson will receive an annual base salary of $1,250,000, a 2024 target bonus of 120% of base salary under the Company’s Annual Incentive Plan, a target bonus of 8% of eligible quarterly salary under the Company’s Quarterly Incentive Plan and a long-term incentive award with a target grant value of 400% of base salary under the Company’s amended and restated 2013 Omnibus Incentive Plan (each prorated based on Mr. Gilson’s start date). Mr. Gilson will also receive a sign-on bonus of restricted stock units (“RSUs”) under the Company’s 2013 Omnibus Incentive Plan with a total aggregate grant date fair value of $3,000,000. The number of shares of common stock of the Company underlying the RSUs will be determined by dividing the aggregate grant date fair value by the average of the high and low prices of the Company’s common stock on the Effective Date. The RSUs fully vest on the third anniversary of the Effective Date, provided that Mr. Gilson remains in continuous full-time employment with the Company through July 15, 2027.

There are no family relationships between Mr. Gilson and any director or executive officer of the Company. Since the beginning of 2023, the Company in the ordinary course of business has purchased less than $0.5 million of goods from Mitsubishi Chemical Group Corporation.
