On March 4, 2016, the Board of Directors (the Board) of LifePoint Health, Inc. (the Company) elected Kermit R. Crawford and Jana R. Schreuder as Class II directors of the Company effective March 10, 2016. As Class II directors, Mr. Crawfords and Ms. Schreuders initial term expires at the 2016 annual meeting of stockholders, at which time they will each be one of the Class II director nominees presented to stockholders for election to serve until the annual meeting of stockholders in 2019. The Company anticipates that Mr. Crawford and Ms. Schreuder will each serve on the Boards Audit and Compliance Committee, Compensation Committee, Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee and Quality Committee, after the Companys 2016 annual meeting of stockholders. The Board has determined that Mr. Crawford and Ms. Schreuder are each independent in accordance with NASDAQ listing standards and the Companys Corporate Governance Standards. Mr. Crawfords and Ms. Schreuders compensation will be materially consistent with other non-employee directors of the Company, as described in the Companys proxy statement for the 2015 annual meeting of stockholders.
