Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers

 

On December 5, 2018, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of EP Energy Corporation approved certain changes to the compensatory arrangement of Russell E. Parker, CEO and President.  The changes were made in connection with an annual review of the compensation package put in place for Mr. Parker upon joining the company in November 2017.  In particular, the Compensation Committee approved the following changes to Mr. Parker’s compensation:

 

·                  a one-time discretionary cash bonus of $350,000, payable in December 2018;

·                  an increase in his annual base salary from $500,000 to $850,000, effective January 1, 2019; and

·                  the amount of any annual performance bonus for 2019, to the extent the relevant performance goals for 2019 are met, to be paid in the form of stock in lieu of cash.

 

The changes above were made to continue to motivate and retain Mr. Parker, to further align his interests with those of the company’s stockholders, and to recognize his leadership in transforming the company over the past twelve months.
