Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

 

(d)       On April 12, 2022, Cadre Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) appointed Ms. Deborah A. DeCotis to serve on the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) until the Company’s next Annual Meeting of Stockholders and until her successor is duly elected and qualified. Ms. DeCotis was also appointed to serve as a member of the Board’s Compensation Committee.

 

Ms. DeCotis, 69 years old, has extensive investment banking, management, oversight and board experience. Ms. DeCotis is a retired managing director at Morgan Stanley & Co., Inc. and held several management and director positions with Morgan Stanley & Co., Inc. from June 1974 until December 2016. Since June 2014, Ms. DeCotis has served as a member of the board of directors of PIMCO Closed-End Funds and since January 2019, has served as its chairperson. Ms. DeCotis has served as a director on the Allianz Global Investors Capital LLC - Multi-Fund Board from June 2011 until July 2021. From March 2017 until July 2021, Ms. DeCotis served as a member of the board of directors of Watford Holdings Ltd., formerly a NASDAQ-listed company. From July 2002 until July 2007, Ms. DeCotis served as a member of the board of directors of Armor Holdings, Inc., formerly a New York Stock Exchange-listed company, as well as a member of its audit committee and governance committee. She also served as the executive vice-president for Sotheby Holdings, Inc. from December 1999 until September, 2001. She has served as a trustee of Smith College since June 2016 and as chairperson of the Smith College’s Investment Committee since June 2021. Ms. DeCotis previously served as a trustee on the board of Stanford University and also served as co-chair of the Special Projects Committee at Memorial Sloane Kettering Hospital. Ms. DeCotis holds a B.A. in Mathematics from Smith College and an M.B.A. from the Stanford Graduate School of Business, from which she graduated with distinction as a Miller Scholar. Based upon Ms. DeCotis’ extensive senior executive experience in the investment banking industry as well as her significant board and oversight experiences serving as a member of the boards and committees of public as well as private companies, the Company believes that Ms. DeCotis has the requisite set of skills to serve as a Board or Board committee member of the Company.
