ITEM 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
On January 19, 2017, the Registrant’s Board of Directors elected Mr. Todd M. Bluedorn to the Board of Directors of the Registrant and to the Board’s Audit Committee effective March 1, 2017. Mr. Bluedorn will be compensated as described under the heading “Director Compensation” in the Registrant’s proxy statement for its 2016 annual meeting of stockholders, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 9, 2016.

There have been no transactions involving the Registrant or any of its subsidiaries in which Mr. Bluedorn has or will have a direct or indirect material interest that are required to be disclosed by Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.
