Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers
Director Frederick C. Tuomi has informed the Board of Directors that he will complete his current term as a Director at the May 9, 2018 board meeting and annual meeting and will not stand for reelection as a director at the May 2018 annual meeting. Mr. Tuomi indicated that his new position as CEO of Invitation Homes and his relocation to Dallas, Texas will make it difficult for him to fulfill his duties as a director as the Company deserves.
Mr. Tuomi has served the Company as a director since 2014. He served the Company on the Audit Committee and the Compensation Committee. Mr. Tuomi’s extensive real estate development experience and business acumen will be missed by the Board and the Company as he has been a valuable resource over his tenure.
