Diamond Resorts International, Inc. (NYSE: DRII) announced today that B. Scott Minerd, Chairman of Investments and Global Chief Investment Officer at Guggenheim, has stepped down from the Board of Directors, effective July 28, 2015. Mr. Minerd had served on the Board of the Company and its predecessor since 2010. Stephen J. Cloobeck, Chairman of Diamond Resorts International said, “On behalf of the Company’s management and the entire Board, I would like to thank Scott for his dedication and significant contributions to the Company.”

In August 2014, the Company lost its status as a “controlled company” under the rules of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”), and the Company had a one-year grace period in which to comply with the NYSE requirement of having a majority independent board. With Mr. Minerd’s departure, the majority of Diamond’s Board of Directors will now be comprised of independent directors in compliance with the rules of the NYSE. The Company was already in compliance with all of the other corporate governance requirements applicable under NYSE rules to companies that do not qualify as “controlled companies.”

Guggenheim will continue to have a presence on Diamond’s Board of Directors through Zachary D. Warren who has served on the Board of the Company and is predecessor since 2010.
