On April 4, 2018, Frank R. Martire, a Director and Chairman of the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Fidelity National Information Services, Inc. (the “Corporation”) notified the Corporation of his intention to retire from the Board when his term expires at the Corporation’s upcoming 2018 Annual Meeting of the Shareholders. Mr. Martire’s decision not to stand for re-election was based on his desire to pursue other interests and was not the result of any disagreements with the Board or the Corporation on matters related to the Corporation’s operations, policies or practices.
As part of the Corporation’s planned succession, the Board elected Gary Norcross to be the Chairman of the Board effective at the expiration of Mr. Martire’s term at the conclusion of the Corporation’s upcoming 2018 Annual Meeting of the Shareholders. Mr. Norcross is also the President and Chief Executive Officer of the Corporation.
Keith Hughes, who was elected by the Board to serve as the Lead Independent Director of the Board in February, will continue in that role.
