(b) On July 7, 2014, Mr. Darren Huston notified the board of directors (the “Board”) of DeVry Education Group Inc. (“DeVry Group”) of his decision to resign, effective immediately, as a director of DeVry Group, as a member of the Audit and Finance Committee of the Board and as a member of the Academic Committee of the Board. Mr. Huston was recently appointed the president and chief executive officer of The Priceline Group and informed the Board that the increased demands of his new role are expected to consume the time otherwise available for serving on the DeVry Group board. There are no known disagreements between Mr. Huston and DeVry Group on any matters relating to DeVry Group’s operations, policies or practices.
At present, the Board does not intend to fill the vacancy on the Board as a result of Mr. Huston’s resignation. The Board intends to reduce the size of the Board from 10 members to 9 members pursuant to the provisions of the Amended and Restated By-Laws of DeVry Group.
