Item 5.02Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
On February 14, 2018, Paul G. Kirk, Jr., a member of the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Cedar Realty Trust, Inc. (“the “Company”), informed the Board that he will retire from the Board effective at the Company’s 2018 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”) and will not stand for re-election to the Board at the Annual Meeting. Senator Kirk’s decision to retire and not stand for re-election to the Board was not the result of any dispute or disagreement with the Company on any matter relating to the Company’s financial condition or financial reporting.
The Company deeply appreciates Senator Kirk’s significant contributions to the Company during his many years of service on the Board and related committees, including his long time service as chair of the Company’s Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. Senator Kirk served as a director from 2005 to September 2009, when he resigned to accept appointment as a United States Senator for Massachusetts to succeed the late Senator Edward M. Kennedy. Senator Kirk was subsequently re-elected to the Board in June 2010. The Company wishes Senator Kirk well in the future.
