On March 7, 2019, Mark T. Behrman, a member of the Board of Directors of LSB Industries, Inc (the “Board”), and Jack E. Golsen, Chairman Emeritus and a member of the Board, exchanged classes of directorships to which they are appointed. For that purpose, on that date, Mr. Behrman resigned as a director from the class with a term expiring at the 2020 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, subject to his immediate reappointment, and was immediately reappointed to the Board as a director to the class with a term expiring at the 2019 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. Additionally, Mr. Golsen resigned as a director from the class with a term expiring at the 2019 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, subject to his immediate reappointment, and was immediately reappointed to the Board as a director to the class with a term expiring at the 2020 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. Mr. Behrman continues to serve as the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer, and Mr. Golsen remains the Chairman Emeritus of the Board.

Mr. Golsen’s previous term was scheduled to expire at the 2019 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. Mr. Golsen had expressed to the Board his inability to commit to serving another full three-year term if reelected and has asked the Board to review his tenure annually. The Board determined that it is in the best interests of the Company for Mr. Golsen to continue serving on the Board for at least another year, with which he agreed. The exchanging of classes between Messrs. Behrman and Golsen, therefore, allows the Board to retain the services of Mr. Golsen for at least one additional year. The exchange also means that Mr. Behrman will be nominated for reelection to a three-year term at the 2019 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, reflecting the confidence the Board has in Mr. Behrman.

Additional information about Messrs. Behrman and Golsen is set forth in the Company’s definitive proxy statement on Schedule 14A filed with the SEC on April 23, 2018. For all other purposes, including vesting and other compensation matters, the service of Messrs. Behrman and Golsen on the Board is deemed to have continued uninterrupted.

The following sets forth the current members of the Board, current class expiration year and current committee memberships of the Company:
