Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
On February 26, 2021, the Board of Directors elected J. Paul Condrin III to the Board of Directors of The Hanover Insurance Group, Inc. (the “Company”). Mr. Condrin, 59, is Chair of the Board of Trustees and Interim President of Bentley University. Mr. Condrin has served on the Bentley Board of Trustees since 2013 and was named Interim President in June 2020. Before his retirement in 2018, Mr. Condrin was Executive Vice President and President, Commercial Insurance for Liberty Mutual Insurance. During his twenty-nine years at Liberty Mutual, Mr. Condrin served in other senior roles, including as president of three additional strategic business units, corporate CFO and corporate comptroller. Mr. Condrin began his career as a senior audit manager at KPMG, where he specialized in serving insurance companies and higher education institutions.
To balance our classes of directors, Mr. Condrin will serve in the class of directors whose term expires at the Company’s 2021 annual meeting of shareholders.
Mr. Condrin will receive the same compensation for his service on the Company’s Board of Directors as the Company’s other non-employee directors, as described in Exhibit 10.1 to the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 1, 2019, but pro-rated to reflect that he was appointed mid-term.
