This excerpt taken from the WNR DEF 14A filed Apr 16, 2009. Nominees
We currently have eight members on our Board of Directors. Our
Board of Directors is divided into three classes. As of
March 30, 2009, there were two class I directors
(Brian J. Hogan and Scott D. Weaver), three class II
directors (William D. Sanders, Ralph A. Schmidt and Jeff A.
Stevens) and three class III directors (Carin M. Barth,
Paul L. Foster and L. Frederick Francis). The term of each class
of director is three years, with the term of one class expiring
at each of our annual meetings of stockholders. The current term
of office of the class I directors expires at the 2009
Annual Meeting of Stockholders.
Our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee recommended to
the Board of Directors that Mr. Hogan and Mr. Weaver
be nominees for director at the 2009 Annual Meeting of
Stockholders. Based on the Nominating and Corporate Governance
Committee’s recommendations, our Board of Directors
nominated both individuals for election to class I
directorships at the 2009 Annual Meeting of Stockholders to
serve for a three year term expiring at the Annual Meeting of
Stockholders in 2012. Mr. Hogan and Mr. Weaver have
consented to being named as nominees and have indicated their
intention to serve if elected. Our Board of Directors has
affirmatively determined that Mr. Hogan is independent
under the rules and regulations of the New York Stock Exchange
and the Securities and Exchange Commission, and Company
guidelines. Both of the nominees are currently serving as
directors and a brief description of their business experience
is set forth below.
Unless otherwise instructed, the proxy holders will vote for the
election of Mr. Hogan and Mr. Weaver. If for any
reason any of the nominees should become unable to serve as a
director prior to the annual meeting, the proxy holders may vote
for the election of a substitute nominee designated by the Board
of Directors.
