(&#8220;Elliott&#8221;), which manages funds that together have an investment of more than <span class=\"xn-money\">$2.5 billion<\/span> in Phillips 66 (NYSE: PSX) (the &#8220;Company&#8221; or &#8220;Phillips&#8221;), today filed a lawsuit in the Court of Chancery of the <span class=\"xn-location\">State of Delaware<\/span> (the &#8220;Court&#8221;) against the Company and its Board of Directors (the &#8220;Board&#8221;).<\/p>\n<div class=\"PRN_ImbeddedAssetReference\" id=\"DivAssetPlaceHolder1\">\n<p>\n          <a href=\"https:\/\/mma.prnewswire.com\/media\/1179754\/Elliot_Logo.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\"><br \/>\n            <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/mma.prnewswire.com\/media\/1179754\/Elliot_Logo.jpg\" title=\"Elliot logo (PRNewsfoto\/Elliott Advisors (UK) Limited)\" alt=\"Elliot logo (PRNewsfoto\/Elliott Advisors (UK) Limited)\" \/><br \/>\n          <\/a>\n        <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>The complaint seeks an order requiring that four board seats be up for election at Phillips&#8217; 2025 Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the &#8220;Annual Meeting&#8221;).\u00a0 After receiving Elliott&#8217;s notice of director nominations, on <span class=\"xn-chron\">February 18<\/span> Phillips announced that two sitting directors previously in the 2025 class, <span class=\"xn-person\">Gary Adams<\/span> and <span class=\"xn-person\">Denise Ramos<\/span>, would not stand for reelection, and that the size of the Board would be reduced from 14 to 12 directors after the Annual Meeting. As a result, there would only be two seats up for election in the 2025 class and then five in each of the 2026 and 2027 classes \u2013 which Elliott argues in the complaint is in violation of the Company&#8217;s governing documents requiring director classes to be equalized.<\/p>\n<p>Despite Elliott privately requesting confirmation, Phillips has still not disclosed how many seats will be up for election or who its nominees will be, requiring Elliott to file a complaint in order to preserve its shareholder rights. The Company&#8217;s current gamesmanship around its directors follows the Company&#8217;s previous failure to honor its representations made to Elliott \u2013 dating back to <span class=\"xn-chron\">February 2024<\/span> \u2013 that it would appoint a mutually agreed-upon director with energy experience. In its complaint, Elliott states that if the Company ends its defensive maneuvers and confirms that at least four director seats will be up for election at the 2025 Annual Meeting, Elliott intends to withdraw the complaint and no longer proceed with the litigation.<\/p>\n<p>This preference for gamesmanship and disregard for stockholder rights demonstrated by Phillips reinforces why change is urgently needed on the Board in order for the Company to achieve its full value-creation potential. On <span class=\"xn-chron\">March 4<\/span>, Elliott announced a slate of seven highly qualified director candidates with complementary backgrounds and experience related to improving refining and midstream operations, evaluating complex strategic transactions and enhancing corporate governance. Prior to the filing of Elliott&#8217;s definitive proxy materials, Elliott will identify the final slate of director candidates that will stand for election at the Annual Meeting.<\/p>\n<p>For more information, please visit <a href=\"https:\/\/c212.net\/c\/link\/?t=0&amp;l=en&amp;o=4391247-1&amp;h=42706953&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fstreamline66.com%2F&amp;a=Streamline66.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Streamline66.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"prntac\">\n        <b>CERTAIN INFORMATION CONCERNING THE PARTICIPANTS<\/b>\n      <\/p>\n<p>Elliott Investment Management L.P., together with the other participants named herein (collectively, &#8220;Elliott&#8221;), has filed a preliminary proxy statement and accompanying <b>GOLD <\/b>universal proxy card with the Securities and Exchange Commission (&#8220;SEC&#8221;) to be used to solicit proxies with respect to the election of Elliott&#8217;s slate of highly qualified director candidates and the other proposals to be presented at the 2025 annual meeting of stockholders of Phillips 66, a <span class=\"xn-location\">Delaware<\/span> corporation (&#8220;Phillips&#8221; or the &#8220;Company&#8221;).<\/p>\n<p>THE PARTICIPANTS STRONGLY ADVISE ALL STOCKHOLDERS OF THE COMPANY TO READ THE PROXY STATEMENT AND OTHER PROXY MATERIALS, INCLUDING A PROXY CARD, AS THEY BECOME AVAILABLE BECAUSE THEY WILL CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION.
