Number and Classification. (a) Initially, the Board of Directors has two (2) members, both of whom are non- Independent Directors and were appointed as follows: (i) CSCM appointed Txxxxx X. Xxxxxxx, an interested director, to serve as Chairman of the Board of Directors (the “CSCM non-Independent Director”) until his successor shall be elected and shall qualify or until his earlier resignation, removal from office, death or incapacity; provided, however, Chairman of the Board of Directors or the Vice-Chairman of the Board of Directors shall always be the CSCM non-Independent Director, and (ii) LLSC appointed Axxxxx X. Xxxxxx, an interested director, to serve as Vice-Chairman of the Board of Directors (the “LLSC non-Independent Director”), to serve until his successor shall be elected and shall qualify or until his earlier resignation, removal from office, death or incapacity; provided, however, Chairman of the Board of Directors or the Vice-Chairman of the Board of Directors shall always be the LLSC non-Independent Director. The total number of Directors shall never be fewer than the minimum number required by the Act and, as of the Effective Date, shall be five (5); except for a period of up to sixty (60) days after the death, removal resignation or incapacitation of a Director pending the appointment or election of such Director’s successor in accordance with the provisions Article V, and provided, further, however, that, as of the Effective Date and subject to this Section 5.2(a) and Section 5.2(d), at all times there shall be one more Independent Director than non-Independent Directors. (b) The names and addresses of the Directors who shall serve on the Board of Directors are set forth in the books and records of the Company. (c) Subject to Section 5.3, any and all vacancies on the Board of Directors may be filled by the affirmative vote of a majority of the remaining Directors in office, even if the remaining Directors do not constitute a quorum and shall serve for the remainder of the full term of the position in which such vacancy occurred and until a successor is duly elected and qualified by the shareholders. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event of a vacancy among the Independent Directors, the remaining Independent Directors shall nominate replacements for such position. (d) As of the Effective Date, a majority of the Board of Directors will be Independent Directors except for a period of sixty (60) days after the failure to stand for re-election, death, removal, resignation or incapacitation of an Independent Director. (e) The Board of Directors shall be divided into three classes, designated Class I, Class II and Class III, as nearly equal in number as possible, and the term of office of Directors of one class shall expire at each annual meeting of Members, and in all cases as to each Director such term shall extend until his or her successor shall be elected and shall qualify or until his or earlier resignation, removal from office, death or incapacity. Additional directorships resulting from an increase in number of Directors shall be apportioned among the classes as equally as possible. Class I initially shall consist of one Independent Director, Class II initially shall consist of one Independent Director and one non-Independent Director, and Class III initially shall consist of one Independent Director and one non-Independent Director. The initial term of office of Directors of Class I shall expire at the Company’s first annual meeting of the Members following the Initial Closing of the Private Placement, or, if earlier, the Commencement of the Initial Public Offering; the initial term of office of Directors of Class II shall expire at the Company’s second annual meeting of the Members following the Initial Closing of the Private Placement, or, if earlier, the Commencement of the Initial Public Offering; and the initial term of office of Directors of Class III shall expire at the Company’s third annual meeting of the Members following the Initial Closing of the Private Placement, or, if earlier, the Commencement of the Initial Public Offering. Following such initial terms, at each annual meeting of the Members, a number of Directors equal to the number of Directors of the class whose term expires at the time of such meeting (or, if less, the number of Directors properly nominated and qualified for election) shall be elected to hold office until the third succeeding annual meeting of the Members after their election. Each Director may be reelected to an unlimited number of succeeding terms in accordance with these provisions. At each annual election, Directors chosen to succeed those whose terms then expire shall be of the same class as the Directors they succeed, unless by reason of any intervening changes in the authorized number of Directors, the Board of Directors shall designate one or more directorships whose term then expires as directorships of another class in order to more nearly achieve equality of number of Directors among the classes. Notwithstanding the rule that the three classes shall be as nearly equal in number of Directors as possible, in the event of any change in the authorized number of Directors, each Director then continuing to serve as such shall nevertheless continue as a Director of the class of which such Director is a member until the expiration of his or her current term, or his or her prior failure to stand for re-election, death, resignation, removal or incapacitation. If any newly created directorship may, consistently with the rule that the three classes shall be as nearly equal in number of Directors as possible, be allocated to any class, the Board of Directors shall allocate it to that of the available class whose term of office is due to expire at the earliest date following such allocation.
