Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
(b) Pursuant to the registrant’s Corporate Governance Guidelines, Mr. Thomas E. Henning, having reached the retirement age of 72 on March 14, 2025, resigned from the registrant’s Board of Directors (the “Board”), with such resignation to become effective as of the registrant’s 2025 annual meeting of stockholders as provided in the guidelines. Mr. Henning, a Class II director, is serving a term that was, but for the guideline requirements, scheduled to expire at the registrant’s 2026 annual meeting of stockholders. Mr. Henning has been an integral member of the registrant’s Board since joining it in connection with the registrant’s acquisition of Great Western Bancorp, Inc. in 2022, where he served as a member of the board of directors prior to the acquisition since August 2015, including as Lead Independent Director there from 2017 through April 2020.
In addition, on March 17, 2025, Ms. Frances P. Grieb, an incumbent Class I director, informed the Board of her decision to retire from the Board effective at the 2025 annual meeting of stockholders and as a result to not seek to stand for re-election at the 2025 meeting. Ms. Grieb has been a valued member of the registrant’s Board also since joining it in connection with the registrant’s acquisition of Great Western Bancorp, Inc. in 2022, where she served as a member of the board of directors prior to the acquisition since 2014.
Mr. Henning and Ms. Grieb are expected to continue to serve as members of the Board and in their current capacities on each of the Board committees on which they serve until their retirements become effective at the 2025 annual meeting of stockholders. Neither retirement is related to any disagreement with the registrant on any matter relating to the registrant’s operations, policies, or practices. The registrant thanks Mr. Henning and Ms. Grieb for their years of dedicated service and many contributions.
