Item 5.02(b). Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
Alan L. Smith, a director of Linn Energy, LLC (the “Company”) advised the Company through a letter dated June 14, 2007 that he will be resigning from the board of directors (the “Board”) of the Company effective immediately, and that he is not resigning because of a disagreement with the Company on any matter relating to the Company’s operations, policies or practices.
In connection with Mr. Smith’s resignation, the Company has reduced the size of the Board from five members to four and therefore will not nominate a candidate to replace Mr. Smith at the Company’s annual meeting of unitholders to be held on June 19, 2007 (the “Annual Meeting”). The Company intends to consider candidates to replace Mr. Smith after the Annual Meeting.
