Appointment of Ty Garrison as Senior Vice President Operations

Prior to his promotion, Mr. Garrison, age 50, served as Senior Vice President Strategy & Operations of the Company since March 15, 2021. Mr. Garrison also served as Vice President—Eastern U.S. Operations of the Company from January 1, 2021 through March 14, 2021 and as Vice President East Region from August 15, 2015 through December 31, 2020. Prior to that time, Mr. Garrison served the Company in various positions for 20 years.

Effective as of November 4, 2021, the Company and Mr. Garrison entered into an Amended and Restated Employment Agreement to change his title to reflect his new position as Senior Vice President Operations and to provide that his minimum base salary is $595,000 per year. All other provisions of the existing Employment Agreement between Mr. Garrison and the Company dated as of April 17, 2011, as amended, remain unchanged.

There are no arrangements or understandings between Mr. Garrison and any other persons pursuant to which Mr. Garrison was named Senior Vice President Operations of the Company.

Mr. Garrison does not have any direct or indirect material interest in any transaction or proposed transaction required to be reported under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K other than the fact that his brother Donnie Garrison is employed by the Company in a non-executive officer position, and he received total compensation of approximately $158,000 for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2021. Donnie Garrison’s compensation was established by the Company in accordance with its compensation practices applicable to employees with comparable qualifications and responsibilities and holding similar positions and without the involvement of Ty Garrison.
