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

 

On January 30, 2023, Claire Harvey notified Tellurian Inc. (the “Company”) that she has resigned from the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”) effective immediately. On the same date, James Bennett notified the Company that he has also resigned from the Board effective immediately. Ms. Harvey and Mr. Bennett informed the Company that their resignations were for personal reasons and an increase in other time commitments, respectively. Neither advised the Company that their resignation resulted from any disagreement with the Company. Each of Ms. Harvey and Mr. Bennett joined the Board in late 2021, and they were the directors most recently added to the Board.

 

Based on their short tenure on the Board and the feedback they provided at Board meetings, it is the Company’s opinion that neither Ms. Harvey nor Mr. Bennett was ever comfortable with the risk profile and strategic direction of the Company.

 

Ms. Harvey was a member of the Audit and Environmental, Social, Governance (ESG) and Nominating Committees of the Board. Mr. Bennett was a member of the Audit Committee of the Board. On January 30, 2023, director Jean Abiteboul was appointed to the Audit Committee.
