Matthew Lucey, currently Senior Vice President, Chief Financial Officer, has been named Executive Vice President reporting to Tom Nimbley, the Chief Executive Officer.
Erik Young, currently Director, Strategic Planning, has been named Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer (assuming Mr. Lucey’s prior position) and will also report to Mr. Nimbley.

Todd O’Malley, currently Vice President - Products, has been named Senior Vice President, Chief Commercial Officer reporting to Mr. Nimbley. Paul Davis, Vice President – Crude and Feedstocks, will continue in his role and report to Todd O’Malley.
Michael Gayda, President, and Jeffrey Dill, General Counsel, will continue in their current roles.
The biographical information for Mr. Lucey required for this Item 5.02 is set forth in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013, which disclosures are hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 5.02. The information for Mr. Lucey concerning compensation, material plans and other disclosures required by this Item 5.02 is set forth in the Company’s Definitive Proxy Statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 29, 2013 (the “Company’s 2013 Proxy Statement”).
Mr. Young, 37, has served as Director, Strategic Planning, since December 2010 where he was responsible for coordinating corporate development and capital markets initiatives for the Company. Prior to joining the Company, Mr. Young spent eleven years in corporate finance, strategic planning and mergers and acquisitions roles across a variety of industries. He began his career in investment banking before joining J.F. Lehman & Company, a private equity investment firm, in 2001.
Mr. Young will continue to receive a base salary of $300,000 annually and will continue to be eligible to participate in our annual cash incentive compensation plan that is the same plan as for all non-represented employees. The cash incentive compensation plan and any amounts thereunder to be paid to a named executive officer are determined in the discretion of the Company’s Compensation Committee. Mr. Young will also continue to participate in the Company’s 2012 Equity Incentive Plan, which is anticipated to consist primarily of non-qualified stock options.
In addition, commensurate with other executive officers of the Company, Messrs. Young, O’Malley and Davis will enter into the company’s standard form of employment agreement for executive officers, the terms of which are more fully described in the Company’s 2013 Proxy Statement.
