Item 5.02 | Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers. |
(b), (d) On December 12, 2018, Julie J. Robertson was appointed to the Board of Directors (Board) of EOG Resources, Inc. (EOG) and to the Audit, Compensation, and Nominating and Governance Committees of the Board, in each case effective January 1, 2019.
Ms. Robertson has served as Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer of Noble Corporation (Noble), a publicly traded company and one of the world’s largest offshore drilling companies, since January 2018. Ms. Robertson previously served in various other management roles for Noble, including Executive Vice President from February 2006 to January 2018 and as Senior Vice President - Administration from July 2001 to February 2006. Ms. Robertson joined a predecessor subsidiary of Noble in 1979.
Ms. Robertson will receive the same quarterly cash retainer for her service as a director as EOG’s other non-employee directors. In addition, Ms. Robertson will receive a grant of restricted stock units (RSUs) under the Amended and Restated EOG Resources, Inc. 2008 Omnibus Equity Compensation Plan consistent with EOG’s prior grants to its other non-employee directors. The stock grant, which has been approved by the Compensation Committee of the Board and the Board, will be based on the closing price of EOG’s common stock on the New York Stock Exchange on the January 7, 2019 grant effective date. The grant of RSUs will “cliff” vest one year from the date of grant and will have standard termination provisions. The grant of RSUs to Ms. Robertson will be reported on a Form 4 to be filed by Ms. Robertson within two business days after the January 7, 2019 grant effective date.
In addition, on December 12, 2018, Ambassador Frank G. Wisner informed the Board of his decision to retire from the Board at the end of his current term and not stand for re-election as a director at EOG’s 2019 annual meeting of stockholders (2019 Annual Meeting). Mr. Wisner’s current term will expire in conjunction with the 2019 Annual Meeting. Mr. Wisner’s decision to retire and not stand for re-election is not as a result of any disagreement with EOG.
