On February 7, 2020, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Argo Group International Holdings, Ltd. (the “Company”) appointed Carol A. McFate to the Company’s Board. Ms. McFate’s appointment is pursuant to the Cooperation Agreement (the “Cooperation Agreement”) entered into by the Company and Voce Catalyst Partners LP, Voce Capital Management LLC, Voce Capital LLC and Voce Catalyst Partners New York LLC on December 31, 2019. Pursuant to the Cooperation Agreement, the Company agreed to appoint Ms. McFate to the Board to fill the vacancy resulting from the retirement of Mark E. Watson III from the Board. The Board intends to appoint Ms. McFate as a member of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and as a member of at least one other committee of the Board to be determined.
Except for the Cooperation Agreement and Ms. McFate’s letter to the Company executed in connection therewith, there are no arrangements or understandings between the Company and Ms. McFate pursuant to which Ms. McFate will be appointed to the Board, and there have been no related party transactions between the Company and Ms. McFate that would be reportable under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K. Ms. McFate will be eligible to participate in the same compensation plans and to receive the same fees for her services as a director of the Company as our other non-employee directors. Our director compensation has been disclosed and may be found under the heading “Non-Employee Director Compensation” in the Company’s Schedule 14A filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 12, 2019.
