(d) On May 9, 2014, the Board of Directors of Matrix Service Company (the “Company”), upon the recommendation of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board of Directors, increased the size of the Board from six to seven members and appointed James H. Miller to serve as a member of the Board of Directors, to fill the resulting vacancy, for a term commencing on May 9, 2014 and expiring at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders of the Company in 2014 and until his successor is duly elected and qualifies, unless he sooner dies, retires or resigns. The Board of Directors does not expect to appoint Mr. Miller to serve on any of the Audit, Compensation and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committees of the Board of Directors.

As a non-employee director of the Company, Mr. Miller will receive the same compensation provided to all non-employee members of the Company’s Board of Directors. The compensation of non-employee directors of the Company is described in the Company’s proxy statement for the 2013 Annual Meeting under the caption “Director Compensation.”

There are no arrangements or understandings between Mr. Miller and any other persons pursuant to which Mr. Miller was named a director of the Company.

Effective as of December 21, 2013, the Company and two wholly-owned subsidiaries, Matrix North American Construction, Inc. (“U.S. Buyer”), and Matrix Canadian Holdings, Inc. (“Canadian Buyer” and, together with U.S. Buyer, the “Buyers”), completed the previously announced transaction contemplated by the Sale and Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”), dated December 8, 2013, by and among the Company, the Buyers, Kvaerner AS, Kvaerner North American Construction Inc. (“KNAC Inc.” and, together with Kvaerner AS, the “Sellers”), and Kvaerner ASA to acquire the Sellers’ business of construction and maintenance services to the iron and steel, power generation, and industrial sectors in the U.S. and Canada, respectively (the “Acquisition”). The total purchase price for the Acquisition was $88.1 million. At the time of the Acquisition, Mr. Miller served as Executive Vice President - Americas for Kvaerner ASA, the Sellers’ parent company, and as an officer and director of Kvaerner ASA’s remaining U.S. subsidiaries. He continues to hold these positions.
