 Board plays a key role in developing, reviewing and overseeing the execution of our business strategy. The Board receives progress reports from management throughout the year on the implementation of the strategic plan, including business segment performance and strategy reviews for each of our key businesses, product line reviews and presentations regarding research and development initiatives and growth. Succession Planning The entire Board is responsible for reviewing our succession plans for our Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer and other key senior management positions and for overseeing our activities in the areas of leadership and executive development. To assist the Board, management periodically reports to the Board on succession planning to ensure that it is a continuous and ongoing effort. Majority Voting for Directors Our By-laws provide for majority voting in uncontested director elections. We also maintain a Majority Vote Policy that requires a director nominee, in connection with his or her nomination to the Board, to submit a resignation letter in which the director nominee irrevocably elects to resign if he or she fails to receive the required majority vote in the next election and the Board accepts the resignation. The policy requires the Board to nominate for election or re-election as a director only those candidates who agree to execute such a letter upon his or her nomination. The Majority Vote Policy is posted on our website at https://investor.kodak.com/corporate-governance/supporting-documents. If a director nominee fails to receive a majority vote in an uncontested election, the Majority Vote Policy provides that the Compensation, Nominating and Governance Committee will consider the resignation letter and recommend to the Board whether to accept it. The Compensation, Nominating and Governance Committee, in making its recommendation to the Board, and the Board, in reaching its decision, may consider relevant factors, including any stated reason why shareholders voted against the election of the director, the director’s qualifications, the director’s past and expected future contributions to us, the overall composition of the Board and whether accepting the resignation letter would cause us to fail to comply with any applicable rule, such as the NYSE’s listing standards.
