Item 5.02
DEPARTURE OF DIRECTORS OR CERTAIN OFFICERS; ELECTION OF DIRECTORS; APPOINTMENT OF CERTAIN OFFICERS; COMPENSATORY ARRANGEMENTS OF CERTAIN OFFICERS.

On December 15, 2013, Steven J. Lebowski notified us that he is resigning as one of our directors effective December 31, 2013. We are grateful for Mr. Lebowski’s long service and his many important contributions to our Company. Our Board has determined that effective immediately after the effective time of Mr. Lebowski’s resignation, Douglas M. Suliman, Jr. will replace him as a member of our Audit Committee and Stephanie H. Boyse, a current member of our Compensation Committee, will replace him as Chairman of our Compensation Committee. Our Board did not replace Mr. Lebowski on our Governance and Nominating Committee, which will still have three independent directors as members. Our Board is also currently exploring a replacement for Mr. Lebowski as one of our directors.
