On December 7, 2021, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of LGI Homes, Inc. (the “Company”), acting upon the recommendation of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board, appointed Shailee Parikh to fill the vacancy in the Board created by the previously announced resignation of Laura Miller. Ms. Parikh’s appointment as a director is effective December 31, 2021 and her term as a director will continue until the Company’s 2022 Annual Meeting of Stockholders or until her successor is duly elected and qualified. The Board determined that Ms. Parikh is an “independent director” under the relevant NASDAQ rules. At this time, Ms. Parikh has not been appointed to any committees of the Board although she is expected to be named as a member of the Audit Committee of the Board at a later date.
Ms. Parikh is currently Global Head of Strategy and Solution Development at Aon plc (“Aon”), a leading global professional services firm, where she is responsible for leading strategic planning, solution design and development, and product lifecycle management for Aon’s Health Solutions business. Prior to Ms. Parikh’s current role, she has held various leadership positions within Aon, including Senior Vice President, Global Business Services; Chief Financial Officer of EMEA, Aon Hewitt; and Chief of Staff to the Chief Executive Officer of Aon. Ms. Parikh is a proven leader, having managed several transformational initiatives that successfully reshaped the business and delivered enhanced operational and financial outcomes. Prior to her roles with Aon, Ms. Parikh served in various finance leadership capacities, including roles with Reunion Bank of Florida, BB&T (formerly Colonial Bank) and within the Investment Banking Division of Morgan Stanley. Ms. Parikh holds an MBA from Stetson University, a BS in Industrial Engineering and a BA in Economics from Northwestern University.
There are no arrangements or understandings between Ms. Parikh and any other person pursuant to which she was selected as a director. The Company is not aware of any transaction in which Ms. Parikh has an interest requiring disclosure under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.
Ms. Parikh’s compensation as a non-employee director will be the same as provided to the Company’s other non-employee directors:
•$75,000 annual cash retainer, payable quarterly;
•$155,000 annual grant of restricted stock units (“RSUs”); and
•reimbursement for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred for travel in connection with attendance in-person at Board or committee meetings.
Ms. Parikh’s $155,000 grant of RSUs will be granted on March 15, 2022 under the Amended and Restated LGI Homes, Inc. 2013 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2013 Incentive Plan”). The number of RSUs to be granted will be determined by dividing $155,000 by the closing price of the Company’s common stock on The NASDAQ Global Select Market on March 15, 2022, rounded up to the next whole share. The grant is subject to cliff vesting and becomes fully vested upon the earlier of (i) the first anniversary of the grant date; (ii) Ms. Parikh’s disability; (iii) Ms. Parikh’s death; or (vi) immediately prior to the closing of a change in control of the Company, as defined in the 2013 Incentive Plan. The terms of such grant are consistent with RSU grants to the Company’s other non-employee directors.
