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

Departure of Certain Officers

On August 8, 2014, FTI Consulting, Inc. (“FTI Consulting” or the “Company”) announced that David G. Bannister will cease to serve as the Company’s Executive Vice President and Chairman of North America as a result of the elimination of that position, and his employment with the Company will end. The Company also announced that Roger D. Carlile, who, as previously disclosed in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on July 31, 2014, will cease to serve as the Company’s Chief Financial Officer effective on or about August 25, 2014, will end his employment with the Company. The specific dates for these transitions have not yet been determined but in each case the transitions are expected to occur prior to September 30, 2014. The departures of Messrs. Bannister and Carlile will be treated as terminations of their employment with the Company for “Good Reason” for purposes of their respective existing compensatory arrangements with the Company. The Company is discussing with Messrs. Bannister and Carlile the possibility of entering into short-term consulting arrangements with each of them pursuant to which they would be paid a negotiated per diem fee for any services they provide at the request of the Company’s senior management, but no agreements have yet been reached.

Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers
