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

On December 16, 2022, Karen B. Davis, an independent director and Chairperson of the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of PBF Energy Inc. (the “Company”) informed the Company that she is resigning from the Board effective as of the close of business on December 31, 2022. Ms. Davis’ decision to resign was not the result of any disagreement with the Company or the Board of Directors and she will commence her role as the Company’s interim Chief Financial Officer effective January 1, 2023.

On December 19, 2022, the Board appointed Lawrence Ziemba as an independent director effective as of January 1, 2023. In connection with Mr. Ziemba’s appointment, the Board has appointed Mr. Ziemba to the Health, Safety and Environment Committee.

Mr. Ziemba was nominated by the Company’s Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee (the “Committee”) after a thorough review of all of the candidates’ backgrounds, relevant experience and professional and personal reputations and there were no arrangements or understandings between him or any other persons relating to his appointment. The Board determined that Mr. Ziemba meets the independence and other requirements under the rules of The New York Stock Exchange, the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Company’s Corporate Governance Guidelines, and that there are no transactions between the Company and Mr. Ziemba that would require disclosure under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.

Mr. Ziemba will participate in the Company’s compensation program for its non-employee, outside directors, including a pro-rated annual cash retainer and a pro-rated grant of restricted shares of the Company’s Class A common stock. In addition, the Company will enter into its standard form of indemnification agreement with Mr. Ziemba.

Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.

On December 21, 2022, the Company issued a press release announcing Mr. Ziemba’s appointment to the Board of Directors of the Company. The press release related to this announcement is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.

The information above is being furnished, not filed, pursuant to Item 7.01 of Form 8-K. Accordingly, the information in Item 7.01 of this Form 8-K, including Exhibit 99.1, shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) or otherwise subject to the liabilities under that Section and shall not be deemed to be incorporated by reference into any filing of the Company under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, unless specifically identified therein as being incorporated by reference.
